Chapter 726

"What are the questions that will be released this year's official palace examination?"

"The exam questions are not important. Guess, this year, he answered the questions in Jiying Hall, and won the top scorer. Who is the one who won the top scorer?" A scholar with a tall scarf and a sad ending talked endlessly about the biggest news to his fellow villagers. Failing to his grades seems to have no impact on his mood. With the imperial list that Donghuamen soon came out, he will become the target of the scramble for wealthy merchants. The beautiful scenery, beautiful flowers and beautiful relatives, are all in their pockets, and the rhythm of a winner in life in minutes.

"I heard that this person has an extraordinary identity, either rich or noble."

"You have some knowledge, and it will scare you when you say it."

"It's not the one above, right?"

"It is the third son of the official family, Prince Kai."

"Then why are we still here? Go to the Kai Prince's Mansion to congratulate him and receive the reward." The words woke up the people in the dream, and everyone came out in a row and rushed towards Prince Kai's mansion.

A handsome young man in white faced the noisy crowd passing by, and looked at Cai He, who was a river of spring water, from afar, and felt a lot of flavors. Once upon a time, like this Prince Kai, he became the object of discussion after dinner. When he was young, he was also known as the "Thousand Miles Joe" by a great writer Su Dongpo, who passed by the mansion in the past. In recent years, he has lived up to his reputation, supervised the river transportation, reformed the money, pleaded for the people, eliminated the disadvantages and benefits of the country, but he did not know that the innocent heart could not stop the attacks of evil spirits. With a yellow order, he suddenly ended his false political career at the peak of the sky, lived like the past, receiving money, grain, stew mai for brewing, and marriage and funeral subsidies, which were not as good as the best, and were still a leisurely life.

And most uncles and brothers who were only satisfied with the status quo and became officials of major prefectures and counties, and their cousins, the young man in white is now depressed, not because he was attached to the original hot power, but because he regretted the useless land in his heart. Is this stagnant pool of water just so intoxicated for thousands of years? Looking at the bustling crowd downstairs, he couldn't help but recall the days when he was boiling all over the country ten years ago.

Supervisor: The general name of the officials sent by the Song Dynasty. All supervisors are located in various places, institutes, warehouses, affairs, bureaus, etc. (such as salt, tea, wine, bamboo and wood, rent, commercial tax), storage (such as grain and material institutes, market warehouses, military capital warehouses, Jiazhang warehouses, baina warehouses, salt warehouses, rice warehouses), mixed works (such as Duzuo Institute, factory, shipyard, smelting supervision yard), monopoly (such as wine, Duzuo, salt farm, wine gu business, contract tea farm, alum farm) affairs

Officials and chief officials are mostly selected by the candidates and envoys. Some officials in the Beijing court have also been demoted to officials. From the capital to the prefectures, prefectures, military, supervision, and counties and towns, there are many supervisors and officials, forming a huge team of wealth and tax bureaucrats in the Song Dynasty, extending their tentacles to all parts of the country. There are places and services with tax revenue and specialized in profits, and there are contract quotas every year. The year-end rewards and punishments are determined based on excess or losses.

"This man was so arrogant that he actually regarded himself as Cao Zijian." As the examiner, when he saw the candidate signed by Zijian, he was no longer interested in reading. His impression of this unruly candidate had been greatly reduced. He casually drew a fork in the corner of the test paper and threw the unread article aside. This ignored article of arrogant talent, like most unqualified articles, has been drowned in the vast volumes.

When the green lamp was on, the Huang clerk, who had been reading test papers for a day, was already exhausted. The Huang Gong was just standing up and trying to relax his muscles, but he saw Lao Lu, a servant who came in to take care of his daily life and diet, was searching for something behind the test papers he had criticized as unqualified. These were sealed beforehand and it was difficult to find any clues about familiar people in the handwriting. Lao Lu was too focused and didn't even notice the master turned around.

"Don't make any idea about this when going to the cottage. This is not waste paper. These should be kept for archive."

Lao Lu seemed to have never heard the master reminder on the side, and he was still flirting with his own heart. Suddenly, his eyes fell on a test paper and shouted in excitement: "I found it, I finally found it." Lao Lu's strange behavior not only surprised other paper markers around him, but even the master beside him was a little puzzled. When did Lao Lu, who didn't know a few words, care about a candidate who was abandoned by him and was sentenced to the unqualified test paper. Lao Lu ignored the strange gazes of the people around him and handed the test paper that was as if he had won the treasure to the master: "Sir, take a look."

"Old Lu, you know the rules here. If you shoot the bow without turning back, you are like you. When will this test paper be approved?"

"Master, take a look..."

"Come here, carry Lao Lu out and hit the 20-plate board again."

"I think it's the first time Lao Lu has committed a crime in so many years."

"If Lao Lu's servant is broken, he will find someone to replace him in the future if he knows the warmth and heat."

It seems that Lao Lu is quite popular in the paper marking room. As the only old servant in it, he takes care of all kinds of tiring and dirty work on weekdays. He works hard and serves these adults without any worries. The key is that Lao Lu can still speak a humorous and muscular speech. He often makes people laugh when speaking in an authentic northwest accent. He suddenly loses such an indispensable public pistachio. There is almost half a month of boring paper marking journey. It seems that everyone can't accept it, so everyone comes out to ask for it.

As the master, Huang Gong naturally knew the importance of Lao Lu. No one knew Lao Lu's temperament better than him. The fact that things were more serious. Huang Gong glanced at the test paper that Lao Lu had worked hard to find. Isn't it the article that he regarded himself as "Zijian" and was despised by himself? It was obvious that the test paper that he had been sentenced to fail could not be rehabilitated by himself. Otherwise, the marking journey that was pretty good in the future might come to an end. Everyone has their own understanding of the test paper answered by the candidates. He was a little impulsive just now, and he judged the future of a student by just one sentence. Now he quickly scanned it down and was so shocked that he was sweating all over. This good article almost slipped from his fingertips.

"Lao Lu, show me." The prince who was usually with Huang Gong, who was walking closest to Lao Lu saw Huang Gong's expression, snatched the article from Lao Lu and threw it to the clerk who was responsible for copying it, signaling him to copy it again, and everyone around him pretended to ignore it. When the final result came out, Huang Gong was shocked. The article he missed at first glance was actually ranked first. As for why Lao Lu had such a strange behavior, it was entirely a kind of intuition. Although Lao Lu was stupid, he had already figured out the master's temperament very thoroughly and was more intelligent. You should know that the master had reached the level of obsession with Cao Zijian's poems such as "The Goddess of the Luo River", "The White Horse", and "The Seven Sorrows" and called it "super high backbone, rich in lyrics, elegant and resentful, and his body was literal.

, the present and the present are extraordinary, and they often sneer at those who seek fame and reputation who do not make a tiger but do not allow the world to blaspheme it. The master became the chief reviewer today, relying entirely on his own real skills, beautiful articles, gold and jade, and quite famous. After reading an article for at least decades, he has been raising it for a long time, and the article that the master hurriedly glanced at and threw away after a quick glance. The first time he can say in these years, although Lao Lu was illiterate, those dense words were swept down line by line in front of him, which was not something that could be read in a flash. Lao Lu, who was good at finishing the knife, naturally remembered the article secretly. When the day was about to end, he finally found it based on his impression, and he was so sad that he was so upset for the student, and even returned the master to have a reputation for his whole life.

Half a month later, when Mr. Huang sent the list of palace examinations to Zhao Ji, the official family asked the "Zi Jian" intentionally or unintentionally. It was the first time that the person who could make the official miss him. Mr. Huang could not read the joy, anger, sorrow and happiness of the person involved from Zhao Ji's face. Undercurrents were surging. When Mr. Huang, who was jogging, heard the word "Zi Jian" and almost dropped his chin. Could it be that this accident, which was not a good thing or a bad thing, was spread to the official family so quickly? When Mr. Huang, who felt that the black hat was not guaranteed, retreated from the hall with fear, his whole body seemed to be fished out from the water, and there was no dry place, but the matter was finally safe. The official family kept silent about this afterwards, and completely pretended that it had never happened.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the palace examination. When students from all over the world gathered neatly at the entrance of Jiying Hall, Mr. Huang was still scared when he saw this person's appearance for the first time. He saw this person with a tall crown, bright eyes, majestic weapons, and stood there silently, and he stood out from the crowd. He had a kingly aura of hidden dragons in the abyss. Mr. Huang always felt that this person was kind-hearted and seemed to have seen him there. When the eunuch on duty reported to him, Zhao Ziqing

’When these three words, the skeletons almost scattered. This royal family magic power, which was called "Thousand Miles Joe" by Su Dongpo when he was young, was almost in his hands. Like Wu Bo of this year, he gave up the heavenly privilege of becoming an official, and passed the first place in the imperial examination with his heart. This amazing thing was almost beyond everyone's expectations, and it seemed reasonable.

While Mr. Huang was still in a state of uneasiness, the deacon and eunuch hurriedly came out of Jiying Hall holding yellow silk and threw out Zhao Ji's imperial examination questions.

The charity said: I heard that the ancient kings had never been able to follow the laws of the ancestors, but they had never been wrong. I only admired the ancestors, and had not made any mistakes. I have only since I established the classics and music, and have made the details and enumerated them. They are all the teachings that saints have been given to me in the past. I have read the principles of the ancestors, and have always adhered to the principles of great success. I have always followed the principles of the ancestors. However, the ban on paintings, rewarding and punishments are the same as before, but the traitors have not been completely eliminated; the system of tax collection is still the same as before, but the money has not been used for the past.

Abroad; the method of obtaining scholars is the same as before, but the talent has not yet been strong; the rules of promotion and demotion are the same as before, but the officials and teachers have not been encouraged. What is the fault? Is the way of the Tao still unchanged for a long time, and the laws sometimes have disadvantages, and the benefits and losses are not enough? Is it not the person who suppresses the implementation of the book? I want to review the instructions of the Scriptures and explain the key points of the implementation so that the ancestors can achieve the effectiveness of governance again today, and they must have a way. I learned from the ancient officials, and understood the way of governance, and waited for a long time to ask for it. I have written it in detail in the article, and I will read it personally.

Soon, rustling ink and paper sounds came from the hall. Yinghua and his pens were wandering around, each showing their own beauty. This time, Huang Gong focused almost all his attention on Zhao Ziqing. He saw that the other party was calm and focused, and within an hour, several answer sheets emerged.

Mr. Huang looked at the strange bones of his hands, his brushwork was strong, his center was round, his circle was turned to the wishful thinking, and his folded strands with iron-painted silver hooks could no longer be put down, and his whole body was so excited that he kept shaking. The dragon-watching pen was almost as close as the famous officials of Mi Fu, Dongpo and others in the previous dynasty. If he had this original scroll, why would he have made a big joke of "not being good at understanding people". Looking at the writing style, he was even more shocking. This "Cao Zijian" in the world was indeed not a false reputation.

My ministers have heard that there are family laws and laws in the world. People and ministers regard family laws as the law of the family, and people and kings regard family laws as the law of the world. Although the names of people and ministers are different, the laws are different from those of the law of the world. As for those who can abide by the law of the world in the world, they are just power. People and ministers can hold the power of the family and observe the law of the family to show their descendants, and they must be famous families in the world. People and kings can hold the power of the world and abide by the law of the world, and make the law of the world, and they will be a country with the truth in the world. Those who do not have the most will have the best of the law. Those who are law are the great things to govern the family and govern the world; and those who are power are also the key techniques of law.

Now Your Majesty is intimate and has gathered many scholars in the court to visit the governing Taoist wisely. The first one is to supervise the ancestors' laws and abide by the laws of ancestors. Therefore, if Your Majesty wants to abide by the family law and make the laws of the world, he has already obtained it. I have obtained a rank of grass and ranks with my son and ministers, and respect the sages of the sages. He dares not show his complete foundation. Maoming is very versed, thinking that Your Majesty follows the ancestors and abides with the laws of the ancestors?

...... I hope that Your Majesty will regard this as the basis for taking power, and also appoint wise men as helping to take power, and listen to it widely to fully understand the beauty of taking power. With the power in your Majesty, everything you want will be done as you wish. Even if the country is a major plan and the world's major affairs can be done without any expression, let alone the four problems, how can you be sincere? I heard that the lord and the sages are upright, but Your Majesty forgives his madness and ignorance, and I am very lucky. I am ignorant of death, but I am very happy to be with you.

Mr. Huang said nothing for a long time. When he handed the answer sheet that had accumulated a lot of strength to the eunuch, the big stone that was suppressed in his heart was finally put down. Zhao Ziqing's words were as good as a point, and his writing was like a quiet spring, which made people feel happy. Look at the candidates around him who were frowning and sitting on pins and needles, and the final protagonist of this palace examination was judged immediately.

The final result of the palace examination was as expected by Mr. Huang. Zhao Ji was so happy that he bounced from the dragon throne with joy, and even said "Okay, OK, OK". Just when the Huang public officials felt that the matter was finalized, Zhao Zijing's new trouble appeared.

"Zi Jian made a poem in seven steps. Since you are accused of being a wise scholar, you must have outstanding achievements. I will not be difficult for you. Now let you make a poem in ten steps, show your martial arts strategy, and show your power in our country. Otherwise, the top scholar in the new academic year will fall into his family."

Zhao Ziqing didn't seem to have expected the sudden new test question to appear a little messy. He pretended to be Zijian, which was entirely given by his mentor Wu Sihai. In fact, it was also to show his true abilities. Cai Jing and his mentor had a gap. This is well-known. He was a sandwich cake between the two. This impersonation can save a lot of trouble. He dressed up in appearance and won the championship in the crowd. There is no big problem. As for Wu, who took the exam at the same time as him.

Bo, the official's attention was focused on him, and he even read Wu Bo's test papers himself. Cai Jing wanted to do anything unless he didn't want it. In fact, Cai Jing had already set a precedent for the children of the royal family. He only had to pass the exam questions of Jingyi or Ruyi. Those who passed the exam were considered "attached Jinshi" and could even take the actual lack of official positions in prefectures and counties, and they were all in a well-off department. Zhao Ziqing was encouraged by Wu Sihai to take a try, and he actually won the first place by chance.

The arrow was on the string and had to be fired. As soon as Zhao Ziqing turned around and took a step, the deacon and eunuch beside him counted clearly, and the flags outside the hall were floating and rustling. Just after Zhao Ziqing stepped forward, a poem was born in response to the situation.

A loyal heart makes the sun famous, and the country is only loyal in life.

Six strategies have been learned to safeguard the country for a long time, and have achieved success in the Jingnan Dynasty after a hundred battles.

The sword light in the box shakes the moon, and the shadow of the flag on the pole and the wind blows.

I have been willing to be absent from the world and forget my original aspirations, but I still dream of destroying the Quanrong at night.

"Write the red note quickly." Zhao Ji hurriedly ordered the eunuchs beside him to grind ink and use the pen. The eunuchs were originally people who were flattering and had no ink to get up. At this time, he asked him to start writing, which was so embarrassing that a man who had never killed a chicken to wipe the neck of a chicken with a ox knife. The group was getting worse and worse in the chaotic situation. Hui ink was sprinkled on the rice paper next to him, with mottled black marks. Moreover, some only remembered the first half of the sentence, and some only remembered one or two words. They bit the pen on the desk and didn't know what to do.

"Let me come."

The deacons and eunuchs handed over the mess to the scapegoat Zhao Ziqing like an amnesty. In the scorching eyes around, Zhao Ziqing hooked and stroked the ink marks on the rice paper one by one, and actually pulled the ink spots into the map of Guancheng on the border, which shocked the deacons and eunuchs beside them. What's even stranger is that at this moment, Zhao Ziqing used the thin gold body that Zhao Ji was most proud of on the rice paper. The structure was sparse, graceful, and dangerous, thin and hard. In the end, even Zhao Ji couldn't help but move to the table and bow his head to check.
