The Bookish Scholar of the Red Mansion

Being an examiner is really a very easy and fulfilling thing. Wei Yinghong took Lin Ruhai and an old man, accompanied by other people, and began to inspect the examination room.

Looking at the scholars shaking their heads and writing furiously. Wei Yinghong looked at Lin Ruhai leisurely. They were in the same high school and were very close to each other during the examination. They had both seen each other's embarrassment in the examination room. At the same time, I was the No. 1 pick in high school and the top pick in high school. This experience and friendship are really precious.

Master Magistrate, pay attention to the dignity of the court.

Obviously walking behind the prefect, the old man spoke out. Wei Yinghong did not dare to be rude and immediately said: Yes, Master Pei.

Lin Ruhai was not surprised by Wei Yinghong's experience, because the old man beside them was none other than Pei Huaizhen, His Majesty's mentor when he was hiding in the residence. He had served as Chief Assistant, but now he has retired and returned to his hometown. His Majesty awarded him the title of Bachelor of Guanwen Palace. job.

Pei Huaizhen will appear here because of his special status. When the new emperor ascended the throne, he helped His Majesty carry out reforms. Although it failed in the end, he had no choice but to return home. But he still holds considerable weight in His Majesty's heart, and there have been rumors that he will be resurrected at any time.

The second reason is that he is the headmaster of Yangzhou Academy. The examination room of the government examination is not that strict. Now that he is invited to come, he will also be allowed to be a grader and evaluate the future students of the academy in advance.

Several people walked around the examination room and then returned to the ceremony room to sit for a while. Wei Yinghong originally wanted to ask Pei Huaizhen to sit at the top, because the grand bachelor of Guanwen Palace was a second-rank scholar, while the prefect was a fourth-rank official. Well, there is also a seventh-grade official who patrols the salt censor standing next to him.

But among the three of them, Lin Ruhai's posture was the most comfortable. Because of his outstanding literary talent and appearance, he was deeply loved by Pei Huaizhen. Back then, Lin Ruhai and Jia's wedding planner was Pei Huaizhen.

Pei Huaizhen is still upset now that there was no younger generation of the right age in her family at that time, so she asked His Majesty to sign the marriage with an imperial edict, allowing Jia Daishan, an old fox, to take advantage.

Wei Yinghong naturally knew in his heart that when Lin Ruhai was raped in high school to catch his son-in-law, he wished he could take his place. It's a pity that people in the capital are ignorant and cannot see the depth of Wei's heart.

Pei Huaizhen was an old fox for many years. He held a teacup and said, If Ruhai hadn't been so outstanding in appearance back then, who would have been crowned the champion?

Wei Yinghong said with great joy: So it turns out that your master intends me to be the beauty scout?

Seeing his former disciple pretending to be crazy, Pei Huaizhen could only shake his head and put down the tea cup. Lin Ruhai chuckled a few times and promptly changed the topic to the examination that year. Their examiner was also Pei Huaizhen.

The fate between these three people is really deep.

After a while of chatting, a cadre sent in the papers that had been submitted in advance. Wei Yinghong did not look at them immediately, but just pushed them to the officials below. Only if they see an article that they can't grasp, or an article that can be used as a case starter, will they take a look at it themselves.

The government examination will not be too difficult, so there are only seven examiners who will mark the papers. When it gets dark, hundreds of students' essays gradually pile up into a small mountain. Everyone is burning the midnight oil to publish the official exam results before noon tomorrow.

The tense but silent grading continues. Whenever a good article is found, it will be sent to Wei Yinghong, who will make the final ranking decision.

It lasted until late at night, when an examiner suddenly said: Sir, I have found the head of the case. I have found the head of the case.

The man stood up very happily and came to Wei Yinghong holding the article in his hand. That excited look made Wei Yinghong want to laugh. He took the article and read it, and his eyes naturally fell on the first question.

The beginning is: Name is the people of the world. If we put the people first and the people first, nothing will be impossible. Everything is done, isn't it just right?

Looking at it this way, it is just ordinary. I can only say that it is exquisite. Wei Yinghong patiently read it, but he thought it was still good, and it was broken neatly and cleverly. But what makes you so happy?

Wei Yinghong looked at the examiner, who said calmly: Sir, why don't you continue to look at it.

With this in mind, Wei Yinghong picked up the examination paper with the second question written on it. The handwriting was quite good. He couldn't help but nodded and began to read the first sentence: The foundation of the world is the country, the foundation of the country is at home, and the foundation of the family is the people.

As the article progressed, Wei Yinghong unconsciously sat upright. When he read the sentence, The power of the world is overwhelming, and all the fortunes are combined, how can one person be so powerful? He couldn't help but slap the case and say: Write How wonderful!!!”

Wei Yinghong stood up from his seat, walked quickly to Pei Huaizhen, and said, Master Pei, please read this article quickly, hahaha, it is really enjoyable to read.

Pei Huaizhen took the article and called Lin Ruhai to her side. After they read it together, they both saw the surprise in each other's eyes. Lin Ruhai was also full of praise and said, The momentum is majestic and the words are majestic. Only this article's insights and The capital of a government is missing.

It's amazing how you can solve two problems together and solve them so cleverly. The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead.

Pei Huaizhen was silent. He was reading the end of the article and whispering to himself.

Wei Yinghong saw Pei Huaizhen's strange look and couldn't help but worry: Master Pei, is there something wrong?

Pei Huaizhen shook his head, just let out a long breath, and said: We treat all the people in the world as the mother of a hair, take it from the people, and use it for the people. This is the benevolent government that your Majesty and I want to promote. Some scholars always think that You can suffer the common people first, but they have forgotten that the common people who farm the land are the people in the world who provide food and clothing.

Pei Huaizhen smiled again and looked at Wei Yinghong, who was dressed in official uniform, Now, you will also have a statement on the salt policy when you enter the court. Such magnificent words have actually given you a big advantage. It's really like wearing iron shoes. There is no place to look for, and it takes no effort to get it.

As expected, Ying Hong's luck among the three of us is the best.

Wei Yinghong laughed loudly when he heard this, lifted up his sleeves and cupped his hands and said: Master Pei loves me more than the sea, and so does your Majesty. Unfortunately, it seems that God loves me more than the sea.

Seeing the three big guys chatting in front of them, the examiner who selected the first article interjected cautiously: Sir, there is just a small problem.

Oh, but it doesn't matter. Wei Yinghong raised his eyebrows.

I have been thinking about the story in his article for a long time but I still can't figure out the source.

Seeing the examiner's guilty look, Wei Yinghong looked at Pei Huaizhen and asked with a smile: Master Pei, are you coming or me?

It's the tricks of Lao and Zhuang's faction. You are still an official in the imperial court and are not suitable to do this. It's better for me to do it. Pei Huaizhen stood up and picked up a pen to write. Lin Ruhai on the side looked at it and said: The feelings are sincere and the principles are true.

Wei Yinghong clapped his hands and smiled, saying: Good.

The examiner next to him stepped forward and spoke at the right time, Please remove the name paper and let us see the true face of the person responsible for the case.

The anonymization system for government examinations is different from that for college examinations. The method used in the latter is to make a new copy of the examination paper, and then paste the seat number on it for identification. The original paper is kept in another place and remains intact.

Wei Yinghong nodded, stepped forward and peeled off the note with his hands. He compared the name on the examination paper and read word for word: Taixing County, Chen Heng.

It was him. Lin Ruhai couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. When I think about it carefully, I don't think it's surprising. I just suddenly felt that fate was amazing. When I went home tonight, I had another story to tell Yu'er.

My head hurt so bad that I went to take a nap and got up early in the morning to make up for the third update. I feel like I'm going to run out of gas.
