Martial: I Started The Technological Revolution In Ancient Times

The officials tried to find the answer in the eyes of the others, but they could only see that the other party was also at a loss.    

The Grand Tutor did not intend to explain.    

He turned around and walked back to his seat. He lowered his head as if everything had nothing to do with him.    

The people who were waiting for the answer were also filled with awkwardness.    

They didn't dare to say anything to this old man.    

It was just like what Xiao Yun had said to Shangguan Qing'er.    

The seed was small and harmless, but it only needed a drop of water. Even if it was stuffed into the hardest rock, it would still be able to shatter the huge rock. Under the immense pressure, the Sky Splitting Armor would be able to squeeze itself out of the crack without any gaps. It stuck its head out from the crack and drank the dew of the night. Then, he remained silent and quietly announced its existence to the whole world.    

Situ Ping'an's name was like a seed.    

He did not understand much, but it also grew in the hearts of the officials.    

Next, the Grand Secretary of the intermediate palace walked out of the queue and said the same 36 names.    

The various evaluations seemed even more orthodox.    

It did not cause any disturbance, but it did not garner much praise from many people.    

It was too plain. Although he was not disappointed, he was definitely not happy.    

Sure enough, the inner pavilion was still like that, not too close or too far from others, unable to find any faults, yet also making others unable to like it.    

The few middle school officials all voiced their own opinions. The last one was Prime Minister Lee.    

The National Assistant was a special position that had been set up from the previous dynasty. It was a rank two official position, but its position was extremely special. It could be directly heard by the heavens, and there was no need to submit a script. However, it did not have any real power, and it had nothing to do with other officials.    

So... if he was neutral, his official position would be neutral.    

It was precisely because of neutrality that his evaluation would affect the current future direction of the court. It might even... have some of the Emperor's intentions!    

"Zhao Xi, the heavens are fond of reading and studying diligently. He has not lost his pure heart. Rank five."    

When he read Zhao Xi's name, Grand Preceptor Zhao Wuji's eyes lit up and he immediately turned his head to look.    

In the end, this was the final evaluation, and it even fell into the rank of rank five.    

When a fifth rank fell into practice, it was a eighth rank official position. Now, a eighth rank was really lacking, and without exception, they were all in other places.    

It was actually considered not bad that this little grandson of his could be selected and evaluated, but just a Rank-5 was really not giving him any face.    

Especially that evaluation.    

The heavens favor studying hard? What did Fidelinopolis mean? It meant that he was born with a good life. It was just that he was born in the Zhao family. It had nothing to do with him.    

Studying diligently? After living in the capital for so long, who didn't know that Zhao Xi was a fellow who hadn't entered the Imperial Court? How could he have anything to do with studying diligently? Could it be ironic?    

He didn't lose his unfaithful heart? This was a good evaluation. Although it was easy to associate it with the words of impulse and indulgence, the Qin Country was established through martial arts. This pure heart was always good.    

In fact, Zhao Wuji felt that Prime Minister Lee should praise Zhao Xi for his literary talent.    

After all, he had taken out a good poem in his evaluation. That was something Zhao Fengxi had spent a few days to come up with.    

Zhao Xi was Little Master Zhao, Zhao Fengxi's useless little brother.    

Even so, Zhao Wuji felt that he should be evaluated as a Rank-4. If he was a Rank-4, it would be much easier for him to operate. Staying in the capital to find an idle job, he would not have to worry about food and clothing in the future. It was better than nothing.    

Now that he could be an eighth rank official, why not wait for two to three years?    

Just as he was thinking, a name suddenly sounded by his ear.    

"Xiao Yun..."    

The moment he heard this name, Imperial Tutor Zhao's face immediately darkened.    

"Wait!"    

He suddenly interrupted Prime Minister Lee.    

Prime Minister Lee turned around and looked at Imperial Tutor Zhao with a puzzled look.    

Imperial Tutor Zhao first smiled, then said in a deep voice, "I have also heard about Xiao Yun. He was just a guy who did not know anything. He spent all day in the Flower Street and the Willow Lane. I heard that he owes money to the people who came and went to the Wind and Moon Locale. It's really embarrassing to be blocked at home to ask for money. "    

Speaking up to this point, he turned his head around and looked at Xiao Huai'en who was standing on the other side. Suddenly, he smiled and said, "Lord Xiao, what do you think of this old man's evaluation of your grandson?"    

Xiao Huai'en, the Devil King of Desolate Province, a figure who could shake the entire desert with just a stamp of his foot. At this moment, he lowered his head silently, as if he didn't hear anything.    

"Sigh."    

Imperial Tutor Zhao sighed and said, "Old monster Xiao, actually, this old man is doing this for his own good. I don't know what has happened in recent years. There are not many young people in your family, and there is only one direct descendant in your family. If he really became an official, he would have done something wrong without any restraint. At that time... Sigh, I'm afraid he won't have a good end, so I might as well stop commenting. Wouldn't it be good to let him live a peaceful life?"    

As he spoke, he watched Xiao Huai'en's reaction seriously.    

He was looking forward to Xiao Huai'en's reaction. It would be best if he became angry and displayed his Desolate Devil King aura. If he made a scene in this hall once, it would be much easier for him to do what he wanted.    

However, Xiao Huai'en didn't say a word. Instead, he nodded his head slightly, as if he agreed with Imperial Tutor Zhao's words.    

Imperial Tutor Zhao sighed in his heart.    

Then, he said loudly, "In that case, let's not mention this kid's evaluation anymore."    

One sentence was enough to cut off Xiao Yun's career path.    

Prime Minister Lee also became silent. He looked at the scroll in his hand, and it was unknown what he was thinking in his heart.    

But at this time, the king who had been watching on the sidelines suddenly said, "Beloved Minister Li, what do you think of this matter?"    

His Majesty spoke!    

He didn't agree with Imperial Tutor Zhao's point of view. Instead, he asked Prime Minister Lee as if he was backing him up.    

This scene shocked all of the officials. They could not understand what was going on.    

Prime Minister Lee sighed and said, "Regarding Xiao Yun, this official has some selfish motives. As for being an official... this official does not think that he is suitable to be an official."    

This sentence made all of the officials feel relieved.    

Indeed, Imperial Tutor Zhao's words held a lot of weight.    

However, they did not know what Xiao Yun had done to offend Imperial Tutor Zhao. He had actually done it in front of the Emperor!    

Could it be that he was targeting the Xiao family?    

It couldn't be. Although they didn't get along with each other in politics, the relationship between the two families had always been good. Furthermore, Old Devil Xiao placed a lot of emphasis on the Martial Sect, so there shouldn't be too much conflict between them and the Zhao family. There was no need for them to be so hostile towards each other, and this little pond fish, Xiao Yun, would be implicated as well, right?    

However, there were some well-informed people who were very clear about this.    

They had heard that Xiao Yun had beaten up Little Master Zhao and Zhao Xi on the street, and that he was disrespectful to Zhao Fengxi. As for Zhao Wuji, who was a protective old man, he naturally came out to make trouble for him.    

However, in his heart, he couldn't help but curse in his heart.    

The matters between the younger generation should naturally be settled by the younger generation themselves. As an elder, you have grown up for several generations, and you also have a high position and authority. Why do you have to make things difficult for a child when you worship him as the Third Duke? It would be embarrassing to say it out loud!    

However, this could only be considered in everyone's minds. More importantly, they felt that Xiao Yun deserved it.    

It was not good to offend anyone. He was born to offend the Zhao family.    

Didn't he know what he was doing? Why did he have to be the egg that hit the rock? Are you stupid!    

Foolish people, in the official circles, no one will sympathize with you.    

"Can't you be an official?"    

His Majesty's tone was actually somewhat regretful!    

This sentence stunned all of the officials.    

They turned around and looked at the king.    

At this moment, Prime Minister Qiu suddenly walked out.    

He said softly, "Are you talking about Xiao Yun, that child? This old official felt that this child was very interesting. If he could enter the Imperial Court, perhaps it can make this lifeless Imperial Court a bit more lively... Think about it carefully, this Purple Cloud Palace has indeed not seen a young man for many years. "    

After saying this, he walked back.    

This time, all of the officials were about to go crazy!    

What was going on?    

Was the sky collapsing and the earth sinking? The sun and moon hung upside down? Yin and Yang were reversed?    

Xiao Yun might not be a big person, but he was very famous in the capital!    

Putting everything aside, the jokes he had made and the embarrassing things he had done all these years... It was really hard to count them all! Many people were pointing at his jokes for dinner. If they could not hear any news about him after a few months... Instead, they would ask the servants to inquire about him.    

They could also use him as a negative example. If their own disciples were not successful, just say that if you continue to be like this, you might become Xiao Yun!    

And it was more effective.    

After all, there was a chain of disdain between silkpants and trash.    

Xiao Yun had always been at the bottom of the chain of contempt!    

But what was going on today?    

His Majesty actually asked about it?    

Prime Minister Qiu actually ran out to recite for him?    

Even Imperial Tutor Zhao spoke out against him...    

Since when had this dignified imperial court discussed such a useless playboy who would only live in the jokes of the public for the rest of his life?!    

No matter how hard he tried, he could not understand. He could not figure it out even if he racked his brain.    

However... they could clearly see that this matter did not seem to be very ordinary.    

It would be best if they didn't get involved.    

Therefore, even without any discussion, everyone present chose to remain silent. They looked at each other and did not say a word.    

Imperial Tutor Zhao was also stunned.    

He turned his head and looked at Prime Minister Qiu.    

In his point of view, it was Prime Minister Qiu's revenge for the locust plague, and he was against it.    

And the way he opposed him was even more excessive than his own.    

Yet he was speaking up for a famous silkpants? This... Where was he going to reason with?    

Just as he was about to speak, His Majesty snatched him away.    

His Majesty said with some amusement, "Beloved Minister Li, what do you think about what Elder Qiu said?"    

Prime Minister Lee was in a dilemma. He picked up the dossier again, sighed, and said loudly.    

"Xiao Yun, laughing, cursing, and hiding your sharp edge. You are naturally a saint, and you have achieved enlightenment through wandering clouds and wild cranes. If you encounter a storm and turn into a flood dragon, you will be evaluated as a Grade One Saint Grade."    

"Hua!"    

As soon as these words were spoken, it shocked everyone present!    

Saint Grade?    

How many years had it been since a ninth grade middle rank had produced a Saint Grade? Firstly, he was unwilling, and even more so, he could not!    

In this world, there were clouds and clouds. A Grandmaster in a hundred years, a Sage in a thousand years!    

One Sage! A publicly acknowledged trash actually became a Saint Grade in Prime Minister Lee's mouth?    

This was a little too exaggerated.    

It was too unbelievable.    

And... it was a bit too much!    

What virtue and ability did he have?    

What virtue and ability did he, Xiao Yun, have?    

Although none of the people present were willing to be labeled as Saint Grade to cut off their career path, they could not be compared to others to obtain a Saint Grade!    

There was no need for anything else. Just this evaluation alone, even if Xiao Yun did not do anything in the future, even if he died the next day, his name would still be recorded in the history books of Qin Country.    

It would be fine if it was a brilliant guy, but if it was a guy who contributed so much, it would be fine, but what was Xiao Yun? Was he worthy?    

Who wouldn't be angry?    

Even His Majesty was stunned for a long time. Then he smiled bitterly and suddenly picked up the piece of paper that he had put down earlier. He looked at it carefully again. After a long time, he sighed and said, "Saint Grade? Not bad."    

"Hiss!"    

As the saying goes, 'golden words speak jade'.    

Once His Majesty said this, this matter would probably be settled!    

A little over twenty years old? A piece of trash that was renowned in the capital? Little Master from the Xiao family, who often had rumors of bullying men and women, had become a Saint Grade? !    

He turned his head and thought about the four comments just now...    

However, he realized that there was actually something else in the comments!    

Everyone else only had two sentences, one sentence, and five words. When combined, it was only ten words, and it determined a person's character grade.    

However, Xiao Yun had used four sentences, and twenty eight words, which were loud and clear!    

He carefully analyzed it again.    

The first sentence, laughing, cursing and hiding his power? What did it mean? Could it be that Xiao Yun's original actions were all means? Was it all an illusion? Was it all to conceal his powerful aura?    

This... To tell ghosts, to believe in ghosts?    

Taking ten thousand steps back, even if this sentence was true.    

What about the next sentence?    

Natural talent as a saint? So this Saint Grade was born? Where did this natural talent come from? Where did the talent of a saint come from? It was as if he was spouting nonsense.    

Who was born to be a saint?    

What was a saint? An extraordinary being was a saint!    

A saint was not something that was born into the world. When one was born, they were born into the world of mortals. They were vulgar to the extreme. When mortals lived in the world, even His Majesty often claimed that they were just ordinary people in the world.    

That was something that required one to learn the day after tomorrow, cultivate one's body and nurture one's character, and possess great wisdom.    

Not only was his reputation and knowledge shocking, but more importantly, it had to be beneficial to this world. He needed to be respected by the people, and he needed to be able to save the world with great merit. Only then would he be worthy of the title of Saint.    

Why did it become so natural?    

No one could be angry with him, and no one could be angry with him.    

However, what shocked them even more was the last two sentences!    

Did the Leisure Cloud Crane Fang Chengdao achieve his goal? Why? What was it that did not involve itself in important matters, instead, allowed it to enter the highest realm and be named after Dao?    

The word Dao originally represented the pinnacle. Only when one achieved the pinnacle in a certain aspect, surpassing a certain limit, forming a system, forming an inheritance, could one be called Dao!    

That was something that could only be achieved through great natural luck. He was just a useless foppish fool, yet he was able to achieve it through the lifestyle of wandering wild cranes? Who would believe that?    

As for the last sentence...    

It was a heart attack!    

What did it mean to be like a flood dragon in the face of a storm?    

What was a flood dragon? His Majesty is a true dragon, and his Royal Highness can be considered a flood dragon, but none of them dare to call themselves that.    

Because Flood Dragons were the only existences in the world that had the chance to transform into True Dragons!    

In other words, those who became Flood Dragons might be able to threaten the throne.    

What kind of concept was that? What did that mean?    

What was wind and rain? It was naturally training and training. Regardless of whether it was going to be an official or going through chaotic times, it was still considered rain and rain.    

In other words, if the world suddenly turned into a chaotic world, Xiao Yun would have the chance to rise up and become the overlord of a region. Or even rebel and become the emperor?    

If this was said by someone else, it would only be a joke.    

But it was Prime Minister Lee, Li Huan, who said it!    

Who was Li Huan? He was the third National Guard of Qin Country. In a hundred years, there were only three people.    

There was only one requirement to be able to sit in this position, and that was to have a sharp eye!    

To judge a person, one needed to be accurate to the point of making one's hair stand on end.    

And his many years of experience in holding a post, using facts to tell everyone in the world, he was able to judge a person accurately!    

He had been a National Guard for 39 years and had been a major general for 20 years. It was impossible to judge a person by their looks, but without a doubt, it was extremely accurate!    

It was precisely because of this that the Zhao family's Little Master, Zhao Xi, such a hedonistic son of a b * tch... No one refuted his claim that he was a pure child. Instead, everyone believed that Zhao Xi had some "glory" that they hadn't discovered.    

So now, did everyone believe him or not?    

They couldn't not believe Prime Minister Lee.    

They couldn't believe Xiao Yun. They couldn't believe it.
