In the main hall of Chongwen Academy, Emperor Changping bowed slightly in front of Zheng Jinyi's table. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

He seemed to be checking what was written on Cheng Jinyi's test paper.

Zheng Jinyi put the pen aside, lowered his hands, and made a gesture to get up and salute.

The Emperor raised his hand to stop him and waved his hand at him slightly. Soon, the footsteps moved away, and the emperor turned a few steps and stopped in front of Song Yi's table.

Song Yi put down his pen, raised his hand to his forehead, knelt down and bowed.

Part of the ritual system on the examination room of the hall is imitated in the previous dynasty, and the candidates use a low table, and they kneel on the ground when composing, which is very quaint.

The emperor said, "Song Hexuan?"

He actually took the initiative to call Song Yi's name!

This couldn't help but attract the attention of the rest of the candidates.

Zheng Jinyi, who was not far from the front, couldn't help but tighten his hand holding the pen, and quietly looked sideways.

Song Yi said in a low voice, "Huh." ”

Still taking the pen back, seeing that the emperor had no other signs, he dipped the pen in ink and continued to write.

The emperor stopped in front of Song Yi's table, and the expression on his face did not change obviously, but he stopped in front of Song Yi's table, but he didn't move.

Some candidates who secretly followed the emperor couldn't help but inhale secretly when they saw this scene.

The incense in front of the hall seemed to burn faster, and the emperor stopped for a long time in front of Song Yi's table.

After a long time, he finally slowly moved his steps, went down to the back, turned a big circle in front of the candidates' desks, and paced back.

Suddenly, Zheng Jinyi, who was sitting in the front row, stood up suddenly.

As soon as the emperor walked in front of his desk, Zheng Jinyi stepped forward and knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the student submits the papers." ”

Hiss!

Zheng Jinyi took the initiative to submit the paper in advance!

He held his test paper in his hand and presented it to the emperor.

This move shocked many candidates in the hall, and some officials who were watching the exam together also looked sideways. Only the prince still sat on the side seat under the main seat, and his eyes did not squint, as if he had not noticed the movement here.

Zheng Jinyi held the test paper in his hand, and the back of his neck was sweating slightly. He knelt on the ground, his head tilted slightly, and his gaze looked at the Emperor with a calm gaze.

Submitting the papers in advance in the palace examination is not an exaggerated thing.

There has been such a precedent since then, what is the point of a truly talented scholar who is a little arrogant and arrogant? If he has no temperament, can he still be called a talent?

Zheng Jinyi thinks that he is the leader of the current examination, and it is a matter of duty to submit the papers in advance.

The emperor had actually stopped in front of Song Yi's desk for a long time before, if he didn't take the initiative to win the emperor's extra attention by handing in the papers in advance, wouldn't he lose Song Yi?

Speaking of which, although the palace examination is an examination presided over by the emperor, the emperor will at most take the main exam, and most of the papers will be handed over to other examiners.

It is impossible for the emperor to carefully examine every test paper, at most he will only look at some that he is interested in, or that the examiner has re-recommended.

Under such circumstances, Zheng Jinyi didn't dare not bet on this!

He was confident that he would write brilliant articles, so he needed to present his articles directly to the emperor. He can't let Song Yi take the lead!

But the emperor was slow to accept this volume at this time, could it be that he wanted to refuse Zheng Jinyi's early submission?

The cold hairs on Zheng Jinyi's back suddenly seemed to stand up.

"Haha!" the emperor was silent for a moment, and finally laughed and spoke.

He motioned to Xu De, who came over, personally stretched out his hands, and took Zheng Jinyi's roll.

Zheng Jinyi exhaled quietly.

The incense in front of the hall was burned for a shorter and shorter time, and the time was about to come soon!

Liufang Pavilion, on the bank of the Bianhe River.

It was almost noon, and Jiang Huijia and the county lord of Su Ni swam around here and on the shore and came back.

The two walked and talked, not only appreciating the spring light, but also very agreed, not only did the county lord of Suni call Jiang Huijia a Hui Niang, but even Jiang Huijia also began to call the county lord of Suni a dream girl.

The princess of Suni County is named Qin Meng, she was born with such a temper, but her name is so gentle and affectionate, when she said it, she laughed: "I didn't like to call this name when I was young, and I often quarreled with my father about it!"

Jiang Huijia said: "Mengniang doesn't mind now?"

"Of course, it doesn't matter. The county lord of Su Ni tilted his head slightly, walked past a peach tree, raised his hand and broke off a peach branch, "It's just a name code, what's there to mind?"

Suddenly, I saw that Hongtai was talking to someone over there, and the two sides talked for a while, and the person who was talking to Hongtai bowed to the lord of Suni County from afar, and then turned around and left.

Lord Suni's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "It must be the person who delivered the news!"

I saw Hongtai coming over quickly, kneeling on the ground and saluting: "Report to the county lord, the emperor ordered two articles to come out, and answer them in front of the palace!"

Lord Su Ni said, "You get up and speak...... Whose article is it ordering, and how is it answered?"

Hongtai stood up and said in a soft voice: "The emperor has made Zheng Huiyuan's scrolls and Baoqing Mansion's Gongsheng Song Yi's scrolls. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Huijia.

He had listened to the conversation between the county lord of Suni and Jiang Huijia before, so he knew the relationship between Song Yi and Jiang Huijia.

The county lord of Su Ni urged: "Say it quickly!"

"Yes. Hongtai cleared his throat and spoke nimbly.

Zheng Huiyuan quoted Zheng Xuan's note from the Eastern Han Dynasty: If you can't punish a doctor, you don't break the law with a sage, and if you break the law, you will discuss the severity of the law in the eight discussions, not in the punishment book...... Thus extending to the present day. ”

On the main hall of Chongwen Academy, Zheng Jinyi talked eloquently: "There are often folk sayings that the prince violates the law and the common people are guilty of the same crime, but is this really the case? In the past, Qin used Wei Ying, the prince broke the law, and Wei Ying said: If the law is not good, it will be violated from above." The crown prince, the heir of the monarch, shall not be punished, and the prince of Fu shall be punished for piety......"

He beamed and summed it up.

How could a prince break the law and be guilty of the same crime as the common people?

For example, Wei Ying's law enforcement, Wei Ying's law enforcement is so strict, he even said that "if the law doesn't work, it will be violated from above", but even so, when he really faced the prince's violation of the law, he also had to face up to a problem: the prince is the heir!

The prince represents the state system, if the monarch is punished, what will become of the country?

Even if it was Wei Yingshangjun, he could only take a step back and choose to be punished by the crown prince and the prince.

Zheng Jinyi said: "Students think that this is not a contempt for the criminal law, but the punishment is decent and polite. As the saying goes, etiquette comes before the law, and governing the country according to etiquette is like this. ”

He also said: "Tang Kong Yingda Justice Cloud: If you can't punish the doctor, you will be punished with five sentences of 3,000, and there will be no goal for the doctor to commit crimes." Therefore, the doctor must be virtuous, and if he is punished against him, he will not know the virtuous!"

He speaks proudly, looking forward to the birth of a hero.

In the hall, there are all "doctors" and the like, who would object to "not punishing doctors"?

Who can object?

Does anyone dare to say that the prince will also be punished if he breaks the law?

The emperor looked at Song Yi and said, "What does Song Hexuan think?"

Song Yi stepped forward and said, "The student disagrees with Brother Zheng's point of view. ”
