    In winter, the courtyard is covered with a layer of white snow.  £«£«£«£« In the middle, a clearing was cleared out by the son of the family, revealing the ground paved with bluestone tiles. It was mottled with time and had many traces of being trampled on, making it look a bit old and a bit ancient.  Yang Yun was dressed in powerful clothes and holding a long sword. His clothes were very thin in the winter, but he didn't seem to care. There was even a trace of white air rising from the top of his head.  After standing upright for a long time, Yang Yun held the sword technique in his left hand and stepped on the Gang Steps, but he practiced a set of sword techniques. This was a daily morning practice, and it was unbeatable.  In the courtyard, silver light is flying, dragons and phoenixes are rising, and the atmosphere is solemn.  "Hoo!" After a few rounds, Yang Yun opened his mouth and spat out, and the white air shot straight out for nearly ten feet, showing his extraordinary internal cultivation.  Seeing Yang Yun standing with his sword put away, the boy who was waiting at the side quickly came forward, handed over towels and other things, and kept complimenting him, "Master Yang's sword skills have become even more refined. The young man is standing so far away and can see  My heart was pounding! " "You're the only one with such a sweet mouth!" Yang Yun cursed with a smile, and handed the sword to the boy nonchalantly, and took a towel to wipe it with.  "How dare you tell lies? Young Master Yang learned extraordinary swordsmanship in less than three months. Even the master was surprised!" This boy is not joking. When Yang Yung first came, many servants looked at him.  This young master of the Cousin family looked down upon his weak literary skills, but after only a few months, Yang Yun had learned superior martial arts, and his body was no longer as strong as before.  The master here refers to Cheng Xun.  Hearing this, something strange appeared in Yang Yun's eyes: "Practice of martial arts can strengthen the body and strengthen the body. It was only after I lost it that I learned how to cherish it" The boy's eyes widened.  I don¡¯t know what the young master actually meant.  Seeing this, Yang Yun didn't say much, and casually ordered: "Prepare hot water. I want to take a bath, and then I have to worship the gods and say hello to my uncle and aunt" There are rules, so naturally they have been prepared, and the boy has also  No longer thinking about it, he said: "The fragrant soup is ready and waiting for the young master!" After bathing and changing clothes, Yang Yun looked solemn.  Came to a set of small cubicles in the courtyard.  As soon as the door was opened, there was a smell of sandalwood, accompanied by some smoke.  I saw an altar table in the middle, with offerings, incense, candles and other objects placed on it. The person being sacrificed was a statue of a god.  Teenager appearance.  The appearance is majestic.  I don¡¯t know if it was because the people who carved it were so skilled, or if the statue was sacrificed day and night and became efficacious on its own. Every time Yang Yun offered sacrifices, he felt that the statue seemed to come alive, especially the eyes of the god, which were full of agility and vitality.  Shining with ** light.  "I wonder if it's the City God from last time. He's looking at this" Yang Yun couldn't help but have some daydreams, and then quickly took pictures.  "When you offer sacrifices, you must be sincere. What am I thinking about?" He straightens his clothes, lights three bunches of incense, worships respectfully, and then puts the incense in the small copper stove on the altar table.  The lingering smoke, with the faint smell of sandalwood, brought Yang Yun's thoughts back to the past.  I remember that a few years ago, I was still a weak Confucian scholar, exhausted of energy, and almost dying.  Unexpectedly, on the way to seek refuge with Uncle Jianye, by chance, he was favored by the City God, who lent him his body temporarily. However, he later gave him a great compensation, which not only replenished the body's lost vitality, but also brought many unspeakable benefits.  Not only does he have a photographic memory for reading, but he also has a high talent for practicing martial arts.  The original Yang Yun had no interest in martial arts, and even had some contempt in his heart, thinking that martial artists were ignorant and vulgar people.  But after a time between life and death, especially when he felt that his body was full of energy and comfortable after being infused with divine power, which was in sharp contrast to his previous illness. In order to maintain it, Yang Yun had to be shameless and ask his uncle for advice on these things that he had not seen before.  "Vulgar Learning".  Cheng Xun had received a letter from his sister before and was worried that his nephew was weak. He was not very happy to see that he wanted to learn martial arts and strengthen his body.  As a patrol officer, he had access to the martial arts treasury collected by the government. Even the local gangs had to sell some thin noodles. He was given a few sets of advanced martial arts. Cheng Xun was from the army and took the best of them.  , abridged it, and taught it to Yang Yun.  Yang Yun has extraordinary talent and hard work. In less than half a year, he has a tendency to become better than his predecessor, which makes Cheng Xun very happy.  "Thank you City God for your blessing!" Thinking of this, Yang Yun saluted solemnly.  I also thought about the former Wu Marquis and the current Wu Guogong who entered the city and seemed to be interested in promoting the City God's belief in Jianye. To this end, he even demolished the Zhao family ancestral temple in the center of the city and transformed it into a City God temple. It seems that there is no need to worship the City God in the future.  Being so sneaky and sneaky made me even more happy, thinking that when the Chenghuang Temple was completed, I would also have to go there.Go put up two sticks of incense and give some incense, eh!  Not only that, but you also have to bring your uncle and aunt with you to pray for them When they came out to worship the gods, Yang Yun looked at the sky. The sun was shining down, shining on the white snow, and the light was very dazzling.  "I don't want to think it's already this hour, I still have to hurry up and say hello to my uncle!" Seeing that the time was a bit late, Yang Yun no longer wanted to enjoy the snow scenery and quickened his pace.  "Is it Yun'er? Come in!" Yang Yung just came to the door and was about to knock on the door when he heard his uncle's voice coming from inside.  Without hesitation, he opened the door and went in. He saw Cheng Xun sitting upright, and the maid who served him left with a copper basin, towel and other items.  "I've met my uncle!" Yang Yun saluted respectfully.  "Well! My uncle is very pleased to hear that you dance to the chickens every day and practice constantly in the morning. However, this is better than those incompetent treacherous sons of mine. At a young age, they didn't bother to learn martial arts, but made friends everywhere and played with women"  Cheng Xun saw Yang Yun, his face was gentle and happy, but when he mentioned his children, he looked angry.  Yang Yun didn't dare to answer these words casually, and stood with his hands tied, quietly listening to Cheng Xun's complaints.  After venting his anger, Cheng Xun smiled to himself: "As we get older! Some people like to complain. No wonder Yun'er" Yang Yun lowered his head: "My uncle was in his prime years, and my brothers were just young and confused for a while. They will surely wake up in the future.  ! ¡± At this time, although Cheng Xun was a bit nagging and old, Yang Yun did not dare to forget that not long ago, it was who led his best men and women to break through Zhou Mu¡¯s official residence and even forced Zhao Pan to commit suicide!  "Don't comfort me. I can still see this clearly." Cheng Xun smiled while stroking his beard, then paused and his tone turned solemn again, "You must have thought it over carefully when you came to uncle's place today.  "Tell me!" "Uncle, my nephew still wants to take the imperial examination!" Yang Yun looked at Cheng Xun and said with a different kind of light in his eyes.  Song Yu¡¯s announcement of opening the imperial examination and recruiting talented people from all over the world has already spread throughout Wuzhou and is known to everyone on the road. Moreover, it has a tendency to spread to the entire world.  Since Jianye is a state government, news spreads even faster.  "You Oops! That's it! That's it! Since you are willing to give in and my uncle won't force it, just take the exam and see your destiny!" Cheng Xun said with a wry smile: "My uncle has been in the officialdom of the military for many years. This imperial examination system,  It is really unheard of that anyone can take the exam regardless of their origin Even if Xingxi fails, the recommendation opportunity will not be cancelled. Just go ahead and try, Yun'er! " Yang Yun smiled bitterly. Cheng Xun was just an inspection officer before.  Not high, but after entering the Prefecture Mu's official residence and making great achievements, he was promoted, and he was barely qualified to recommend a nephew to become a ninth-rank official.  This man was naturally stared at by many people, especially Cheng Xun¡¯s sons and the lady and aunt behind them.  As for Cheng Xun himself, he focused on Cheng Xun, his nephew.  As long as you are recommended by Cheng Xun, you will immediately be promoted to the ninth rank official body. For Yang Yun, who is still white, it can be regarded as a step to the sky. But deep down in Yang Yun's heart, he does not want to be like this.  "It's hard to repay a kindness! It's not easy for me to stay at my uncle's house and be cultivated by my uncle. How can I rob my cousins ??of the opportunity?" After Cheng Xun revealed his feelings before, Yang Yun immediately felt that his aunt and cousins ??were secretly secretive.  Despite the jealous and resentful looks, his aunt treated him as kindly as always, but this made Yang Yun even more uneasy.  I decided in my heart that even if I failed the imperial examination, I would never let my uncle take advantage of the recommendation opportunity!  "No big deal! I'll just go to the Political Affairs Hall to sign up. I heard that you can also be an official after completing your studies! If you do things properly and have meritorious service, you might as well be promoted to an official position!" Yang Yun's eyes flashed, but he made up his mind.  !  ¡­ ¡­ The news that Song Yu established the imperial examination and selected talents in an eclectic way passed through Wuzhou like the wind and soared towards the entire world.  In this world, it is basically relying on recommendation. The cold gate and the children of the farmhouse.  Even if you sell yourself to join the family, most of the aristocratic families take care of your own family members, so how can you give them a good position?  When you get to the officialdom, your family foundation is not strong, and no one will think highly of you. If your family background is not enough, you will only be below the fifth rank in your life!  This is the common situation of talented people from poor families in this world!  ??And when the door to advancement is firmly maintained by a wealthy family, how difficult is it to improve one's own family status?  If the family character is not good enough, talents have no way out, which forms a vicious circle. It cannot be changed until the world is turned upside down and the world changes hands. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????The dependent families formed new factions of power, and they still blocked the rear, and this cycle lasted for three hundred years. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away from the government. ?????????????? But the imperial examination is different, the treatment of scholars is the same as that of officials, and the treatment of candidates is the same as that of officials. If the candidates are appointed as officials, they can get the official status of the ninth rank! ????????????????? The first imperial examination has no identity restrictions. As long as you can read a few words, you can go to the government to take the exam. How big a temptation is this for the poor scholars in the world?  Although the exam is scheduled for December, many scholars have already set off for Fucheng or Jianye.  Among the students rushing to take the exam, there were young people from poor families, sons of aristocratic families, and even farmers who looked like farmers, carrying bamboo baskets on their backs and wearing ragged clothes, but they took the exam resolutely, which was a spectacle for a while.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
