Vol 2 Chapter 34: Palace Examination (Part 2)

Zhao Guan's family didn't have the bad habit of hiding behind others during exams, but it was boring to simply wait for the results of the exam, so as soon as everyone came to the Palace of Emperors, he took the initiative to give an order to make everyone feel free.

Although it is self-contained, the few handsome officials who are often not in Beijing will of course not give up the opportunity to get along with the officials, but it is not easy to say some military affairs on such occasions, so they all chat with the officials casually.

For example, Zhao Guan’s family was sitting on a bench in the Palace of Huangji, and he said that there are more and more servants coming back from the palace, so that the palace is getting cleaner and cleaner. Cloudy clouds...I was shocked that several handsome officials did not dare to talk to each other for half a day. Only Zhang Rongchu came here and really talked to the officials about the life experience of how to save rice.

On such occasions, the military officials did not dare to leave, but the civil officials were too lazy to mix up, so they avoided to sit around in the imperial court early and let the official nonsense go away.

Of course, this is, after all, the political center of the central power that has been passed down for more than a hundred years. Sitting idle and sitting idle, the kind of political order inscribed in the bones can’t be discarded... The official family is free in the imperial palace with a few handsome officials. Sit and drink tea; the three chief executives and a rare senior Yushi Zhongcheng came to the main gate outside together, and there were tea and tables; excluding the other Shangshu and Jiuji Zhengqing from the Ministry of Rites, Zhu Shengfei, then Sitting under the corridor on the left side of the Imperial Hall, there are also tea and tables, but it is impossible to move them out with the objects in the side hall; but further down, the imperial historians, the people in the middle school, and the Privy Council agreed The editors and editors just sat freely under the corridor on the east side of Jiying Hall, which is the farthest from Jiying Hall.

However, although the classification of personnel varies from place to place, the universality is all about the accidents in the Hall of Justice.

To be honest, it is one thing not to speak out against that occasion, but as a civil servant, seeing the supreme honorary status of Jinshi easily thrown out by the officials, I feel a little unacceptable but it is another thing... …So, without mentioning it in the imperial court hall, the discussion on all sides outside the hall gradually became a piece.

Not only that, once the discussion started, it gave many people support in the atmosphere, which gave people who had no courage and opportunity to speak with some confidence, and then became angry.

Only this matter is done, but those who are not good to persuade the officials anymore can only use the spirit of a young boy in the Jiying Hall next door to whisper and complain.

The Emperor Hall and the next door Jiying Hall are about the same size. These movements are difficult to pass into the hall, but they can't hide from the ministers around the hall. Several princes quickly heard the movement.

Then, Yu Shi Zhongcheng Li Guang, who had already had some grievances in his heart, couldn't help but mention this story:

"Lu Xianggong, I'm not really talking about it. On the occasion just now, it was just a matter of patience for the sake of state affairs, but in the future, it shouldn't be left to the officials to continue to mess around... this thing is really wrong. "

Xu Jingheng, who had just picked up his teacup, was slightly startled, he was going to go along with the trend, but he looked at his side, Lu Haowen calmly picked up the teacup and sipped it gently. The deputy vice president turned his head and smiled bitterly at Li Guang on the contrary, before proactively defending himself. :

"Taifa (Li Guangzi), there is a case in this matter."

Li Guang became more and more serious: "Of course I know that there are precedents, but the state is a grand ceremony, and the officials are still frivolous."

When the word frivolous was spoken, the three masters moved in their hearts.

Besides, the Taishang Daojun emperor is one of Beishang’s Taishang emperors after all. It’s hard to say bad things about him, and the three Zaizhi and Li Guang are basically senior officials who have experienced the complete Taishang Daojun emperor’s era, and their status is precious. , And it’s even harder to say more easily, so as not to cause political misunderstanding.

But political language is so interesting, and a frivolous can express a lot of things.

When the Emperor Zhezong passed away without heir, the queen mother and the rulers discussed the succession of the princes to the throne. Of course, Zhao Ji, who was then the king of Duan, succeeded in winning. However, during this period, the opposition prime minister Zhang Dun said, "The king is frivolous, you cannot rule the world," but it also accompanied Zhao Ji's emperor career in the following decades.

Because this sentence is too sharp.

Emperor Zhao Ji, the supreme Taoist emperor, means ‘frivolous’ and ‘can’t rule the world’. A few years ago, history used the fall of half a country, the empty abandonment of the capital, the captivity of the royal family, and even thousands of lives to verify the exquisiteness of this sentence.

Therefore, Li Guang said frivolous at this time, which can be said to convey his meaning wonderfully-although the word "precedent" can gag people, it can't shield people's hearts. That precedent was made by the emperor Taishang Daojun, who has ruined the world. Officials shouldn’t learn from the bad precedents, and prime ministers shouldn’t indulge. Otherwise, it would be ridiculous that the six thieves coaxed the Taishang Daojun emperor that day.

This is a very severe accusation. Even if it is barely a private chat at this time, Lu Haowen must make a formal response.

And sure enough, after a little thought, Lu Xianggong put down the tea bowl and slowly said, "In this world, it is the time when Song and Jin are in full war... I think the official's statement is very appropriate. And a few days ago, Hu Anguo In this world, I think it’s appropriate to say that military affairs should be the first priority in this world and that military affairs should not be faked to others.”

This means that we must engage in Songun politics, and the military is the first. Then it is always acceptable to win a general in the army when it is about to fight.

Li Guang was startled slightly, but shook his head more than ever: "That said, but Yue Fei had received the Shaobao at the age of twenty-seven, and he was an extremely human minister. The official's move is too late...I For the time being bluntly, let Yue Peng have this background, and the discussion below is nothing but the rest of the handsome minds?"

"What if the heart is not peaceful?" At this moment, Wang Boyan, the pivotal person who had been leaning in his seat and enjoying the tea, suddenly interrupted. "The grievance lies above, or is it in Yue?"

Li Guang was speechless for a while, then woke up for a while, and then remained silent.

In other words, it may be that Li Guang himself just said directly, so Wang Boyan's words were more straightforward-if the other handsome officials were dissatisfied, would this dissatisfaction be directed at the official Zhao family? Still facing Yue Fei himself?

Of course, for Yue Fei himself, this answer speaks for itself.

This is because the Zhao official family’s handling of Han Shizhong, Li Yanxian, and Zhang Jun is also exceptionally good... and in all fairness, judging from the performance of these people in the past, their fear of officials is still very obvious, including the very particular Wang Yan and Lu. Qian and the others, and even Wang De, who was a little stupefied. These generals had different personalities and faults, but one was able to fight and the other was loyal, but everyone had a unified understanding.

Even sometimes, several princes would murmur themselves. At the moment, in this world, especially before the nonsense official in the temple takes the throne, the army under the world will be rebellious and easily shaken. However, the official’s use of people who value it, doesn’t Speaking of civil servants, they are just a few military commanders, but they never lose out on the big festival... How can he bring these people out?

Until, in many cases, the respect and fear of the courtiers for this official is rooted in this official's knowledge of people and weight of wings.

And without mentioning these things, returning to the matter of Yue Fei, if the dissatisfaction of the handsome officials is only directed at Yue Fei, wouldn't it be better from the perspective of manpower's strategy? Can you better ensure that the youngest and strongest Yue Fei will be a lone minister?

More balanced military power?

If you think about it this way, the official's move is a deliberately ingenious method, and it is no longer frivolous.

When thinking of this level, not only Li Guang, but also Xu Jingheng was also thoughtful, nodding slightly.

But at this moment, Prime Minister Lu Haowen, who took another sip of his tea, shook his head slowly and decisively: "Although the officials have made small beatings on the lords, they always push the emperor's heart in his belly. , This move is definitely not the other way around!"

"That..." Wang Boyan was puzzled while taking tea. "Isn't it coming back again?"

"No." Lu Haowen sighed softly in the seat while holding the tea cup. "I'm afraid that the officials really feel that giving Yue Peng a scholarship background is of great use?"

"What's the use?" Li Guang smiled momentarily while holding the tea cup. "Could it be possible for him to make up the privy envoy?"

But as soon as the voice fell, this Li Zhongcheng himself was stunned, and then the four important courtiers almost all had scalp numb and looked at each other, and then they put tea on the table in front of them almost at the same time...because they suddenly realized that at this time Maybe it's not right, but when Yue Fei gets up, when he is forty years old, this battle is almost over. Isn't it okay?

Say no, this matter will become a routine and custom in the future... The privy envoys are all supplemented by the army... Give me a background!

Of course, this is how the four important ministers treat the villain with the heart of a gentleman.

Where can the Zhao Guanjia think so long-term?

He really only did this out of a protective mentality for Yue Fei... You must know that as a traverser, Zhao Jiu never thought about how Yue Fei would be because of Han Shizhong’s jealousy. It was like Han Shizhong’s jealousy. Rebellion is usually a joke!

He only knows one unnecessarily!

So this action, whether it is deliberate or opportunistic, is definitely not a frivolous act...Zhao Jiu just wanted to protect Yue Fei from the hands of the civilian officials in a way that he didn’t have to say. He just wanted to give Yue Fei a target. It's just the protective shell of the civil service system.

Of course, it is still the same sentence, Zhao Guan's family may not avoid the abdomen of a gentleman with a villain's heart, and even some groundless worries.

Do you really think that all the butchers are Qin Changjiao? Qin Changjiao is a character born in a thousand years, okay?

Moreover, his Zhao official’s family sits in the palace, who can touch his confidant?

This is the discussion in the Imperial Palace today, isn't it also a private discussion when it is extremely boring?

And sure enough, all the civil servants and martial arts followed the official Zhao’s family and sat in the Palace of Emperors for only half an hour. As someone dared to hand in papers to win the prize, everyone gathered in the hall to discuss the articles of the new scholars, and no more gossip. Colloquialism.

In addition, although Zhao Guan's family had clear words before leaving the field, there is no need to follow any old customs of articles, but in fact, there are no specific old customs in the palace examination articles.

Because the core tasks of this article are actually ‘beauty’ and ‘thorns’.

Specifically, ‘beauty’ is praise, ‘thorn’ is pointing out faults... and the object of praise and pointing out faults is naturally the emperor. In fact, compared with the form of palace examinations, the coexistence of'beauty' and'thorns' has been the basic criterion for palace examination articles since the Tang Dynasty.

In other words, this palace exam essentially requires these scholars to write a political paper that simultaneously flattered Zhao officials and pointed out Zhao officials' faults. As long as the flattering is good, and the criticism is in place, then this is a typical good article.

And this is also the reason why many ministers are optimistic about Yue Fei and Qu Duan...I really don’t need any literary talent, and Yue Fei’s previous "Good Horse Pair" is a model of the palace policy on the employment aspect. As for Qu Duan,'beauty' is hard to say. 'Thorn' is always okay, right?

Back in front of him, Zhao Jiu could not finish reading the six hundred essays whose names had been confused. He just asked the Zaizhi, Shangshu, and Hanlin scholars to review them together and set a rough ranking. Then Zhao Guanjia only looked at the excellent ones.

Not only that, as the hall of imperial court officially began to review the papers, this time Zhao Jiu opened the door to the point, and after setting the ranking, he opened his life. No matter how many Yue Fei and Qu Duan ranked, no changes were allowed.

This made the people in the hall feel at ease, and then as more and more test papers were sent, order became more orderly.

But as the so-called cone is in the pocket, sharp and self-exposed, some of the papers, even if they are confused, are enough to draw the monarchs and ministers in the palace of the imperial court with their extraordinary strengths and have to treat them specially.

It's really a "strength"!

Zhao Jiu looked at the densely packed test paper filled with neat small prints, and only felt that his admiration was as hard to conceal like a surging yellow river... He counted clearly, how many horizontal rows and vertical columns, this is considered to be handed in very early. The test paper actually wrote more than 10,000 words!

Using a brush to write more than 10,000 characters in such a short time, it can be compared with the codewords of later generations who wrote the Internet!

No, those code characters are not worthy to carry shoes for this person at all!

In the palace exam, people wrote such a long policy question neatly with a brush. Where are the web writers who are sitting in front of the computer and typing on the same?

That's not counting.

With a heart of awe, Zhao Guanjia carefully spread out the test papers in the awe of the surrounding handsome officials. Only after reading the first sentence of this article, he felt trembling all over, and made up his mind to let this person be the champion on the spot!

As the saying goes:

"Tang and Wu prospered at the hearing of the people, Jie and Zhou died at the hearing of the sky. Today, your majesty is fighting and fighting between the outside and the inside. However, the five policy ministers are falsely saying that the heaven and the people are one unit. What is wrong?"

This is the first time that Zhao Jiu has seen someone clearly propose that between God's will and the people's will, we must choose the people's mind with a clear stand!

Based on this, even if this person can only write articles, he can still be regarded as a champion, and he will be the last official in the future.

And Zhao Jiu continued to read ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The more I watched, the more I liked it... First of all, this person probably didn't know much about specific military issues, and the military defense strategies discussed were only general, but he came up bluntly. It is true that Da Song has a large population and a solid foundation. As long as it does not make peace with the Jinren, it does not matter if it wins or loses. As long as it persists, then the ultimate victory will belong to Da Song.

This is very interesting, and there is a faint suspicion of flattering official policies.

After reading for a long time, after reading a few thousand words, turning over the page, Zhao Jiu was stunned for a while when he saw the section about employing people, because the person said in the head:

"The Prime Minister today is about the like of King Yan Shu and Wanggui; and he has a long term of office, without Han Qi's judgment; the deputy minister is diligent, and there is no such worry and joy as Fan Zhongyan. Your Majesty wants to rejuvenate the two rivers in this generation, re-set the world, and non-handsome ministers are Han Baiwei and Huozhi. Yes, huh?"

Zhao Jiu was stunned for a moment, couldn't help but laugh, tears of laughter came out... But he was determined to sharpen this guy and change to the second place.

Who told him to tell the truth? The bosses have worked so hard, can you be the one who can complain about it? And how do you know that my handsome minister does not have Han Baiwei Huo Zhineng?
