Chapter 120: Mo Shang Gongzi
"Come on, go and bring all the candidates around. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info "Shangguan Tong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, commanded that these superiors have already deduced the beginning and end of the incident by themselves, or that sentence, in the eyes of these people who hold power, there is not only evidence in the world, as long as it is determined that even if there is no evidence, it is also condemned in the heart.
Shangguan Tong beckoned everyone to sit down, and glanced at Fan Ming and Fu Yuan, no matter what, Fan Ming is a person from the Ministry of Rites, he must have no future here, it depends on whether someone will fish him out in time.
All the people who should have come have come, Shangguan Long is here, please Bao Yushi to try this case with him, and all the officials present will be witnesses.
"Where does Xiaguan have this ability, there must still be Lord Lao. Bao Yushi refused, this is a place presided over by Shangguan Long, not to mention that he is the official secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and he is the highest official here.
"Then I'll come with a big face, all the adults and masters are watching, what's wrong, please point it out, I'm also reading from the book. ”
"Lord Shangguan is polite. ”
"Your Excellency is too humble. "Being able to be appointed by the emperor to preside over this at least proves that the emperor really trusts him, as long as such an official does not die, he will be honored.
"How many of you are students from the Southern Academy this time?"
"Yes. ”
The people in front of them in the clothes of the students all bowed their heads and said yes, this is the place where the papers are marked, and they have already seen a large stack of test papers behind them, that is their hope.
"This official received a secret report, this examination room is the Southern Courtyard Zero Ling Jiu and Zero Ling two students are suspected of plagiarism, it is the source book passed by Master Fan Ming, who is in charge of the inspection of the East Courtyard, your examination room is all around, have you ever found anything unusual?"
"Wronged, sir. Liu Shengjiu and Tian Shili agreed and shouted wronged.
"My lord, the students' examination rooms are opposite them, but when it is still dark at night and the next day, Master Pham Minh has entered these two examination rooms. ”
"Ben-sama has been in many rooms to remind them to go to bed and get up. Fan Ming stared at this student who spoke, and he also understood that if he fell this time, the emperor would be extremely angry, and it would be light to lose his official position.
This is not only Fan Ming's opportunity, but also the biggest opportunity for these students, the people here are all extremely prestigious Confucians, some are from Confucians to officials, all of them are people who can change their lives with one sentence.
At this time, the threat of a person who is about to fall from the mountain is naturally not as good as his own future.
Xia Guan also saw that the people in the two examination rooms at night had not rested, the lights were very bright, and they answered the questions at night, but there was a small snoring sound shortly after Master Fan Ming left on the second day. ”
"Yes, it is true that they were sleeping during the second inspection. "This is Lord Hu who is inspecting the South Courtyard, he came from home, and he originally asked for leave to celebrate his father's birthday today.
This is the paper of the two of them, except for the test paper used to type the manuscript, the official read it, and he really wronged these two students, and he had to work hard to suppress his literary talent. ”
Shangguan Long handed these to Bao Yushi, this time it was really thanks to the person who cleaned up that he liked articles, originally these things would be destroyed after three days, and he secretly saved six or seven copies that should have been destroyed.
This article by Yanagi and Tian Shili is in this.
There are six articles by two people clearly, three articles for one person, and the very similar one is a relatively short one, which should be written in about half a day, and the level is average, which is nothing in the eyes of these Confucians.
There is also an absolute classic, and the whole article, whether it is the intention or the content layout, is an absolute classic, no weaker than some of the people who review the papers here.
This level is really not a big gap from the first article.
The third article is exactly the same as the content on the test paper they handed in, which should be the original writing, and the test paper is just a transcription of this, which is normal in the imperial examination.
This article is weaker than the second line, but it is just a different statement, the meaning expressed in it has not changed, the people here are all big people, and it can be seen at a glance that such an answer is the most to Emperor Chu Chen's heart, and he acts in these styles.
"Your level is still time-bound. "This is a great Confucian who adheres to Confucian culture very much, and he hates it when someone defiles culture like this, and he is simply unworthy of reading and writing articles.
If it was so serious, everyone nodded their heads and agreed, which was a good point.
Yanagi and Tian Shili lowered their heads, and they couldn't see the expressions on their faces clearly, but looking at the bodies of the two of them, they felt that they were covered by dark clouds.
"Fan Ming, don't you have anything to say about this?" Shangguan Tong looked at Fan Ming, these two people were originally famous and famous, and they were not officials, but Fan Ming has not been an official for a year or two, and they have become middle-aged.
"My lord, the lower officials just reminded them, and they don't know anything else. ”
is worthy of being an old fritter, Fan Mingcai will not think that it is easy to admit guilt, his decades of hard work cannot be in vain.
"Hmph. Bao Yushi snorted coldly, he had a straight temper, in other words, he was hot.
"My lord, I found out, Master Fan Ming brought five people into the examination room, but one of them was always in his room, and after the exam papers were distributed, he also went back to the room once. ”
"I don't know what kind of little guy it is, but let Master Fan Ming stay in the room all the time. "Someone asked, clearly ill-intentioned.
Fan Ming frowned, and then said: "That's the one who serves in the study at home, and he has always been a close servant, and he is preparing for a new painting of mine." ”
Someone next to him smiled unkindly, there are many men who are proud of the favor of people like Qinglou women.
Fan Ming seems to have a heavier taste, and he can't do without it.
Fan Ming's face turned red, and it was not easy to refute, he didn't have that hobby, but there were no three hundred taels of silver here, and this kind of thing could only be discredited the more he explained.
"Lord Fukumoto, it seems that these two articles are particularly eye-catching. ”
Shangguan Long did not forget that there is also a Fu Yuan here, and both of these articles were recommended by Fu Yuan.
"These two articles are very well written, and the lower officials feel that they should be in the eyes of the saints, and they are the best articles that the lower officials have read, so they recommend them. ”
Fu Yuan stood up and saluted, he felt that it would not be a problem to take himself out, he had already thought it out beforehand.
"You were also high-ranking officials, so why bother. ”
Shangguan Long shook his head, this sentence was not only said to them, but also to others.
Why bother, for the sake of this one that has not been fulfilled, it has harmed his own present.
Dong Mansion.
Dong Qinghe received the news that now Fan Ming and Liu Shengjiu have both been looked, and the people in the examination room have also been found, and according to the impression, someone is tracing the portrait.
Shangguan Long re-emerged the question, and the answer level of Yanagi Jiu and Tian Shili was not as good as that of the performance, and it could only be regarded as average.
After the emperor found out about this, Thunder was furious, dismissed Fan Ming and Fu Yuan's positions, and raided the homes of the two, Liu Shengjiu and Tian Shili were also dismissed and imprisoned for ten years, and they could not be pardoned.
It was found out that the person who helped write the article was Yan Zhi, a jinshi many years ago, who had not held an official position all these years and lived in a courtyard in Taijing City.
When the emperor ordered the arrest, the person had already run away, so he had to order a nationwide arrest.
Few people knew that it was a staff member of the He family.
The imperial examination ended like this, the two court officials were dismissed, and the Zhongshu Order of Zhongshu Province also sadly wrote to himself to ask for his guilt, saying that the emperor was not strict.
In March, the results were announced, Dong Qinghe didn't need to look at it to know the results, Wang Chang was admitted, and he did relatively well, and he was in eighth place, which was particularly good, thanks to Master Zhou's guidance.
This time, a total of 248 people were admitted, in fact, it should be 250 people, Yanagi Jiu and Tian Shili were originally there, or in the first three, but they were dismissed, and the emperor ordered not to make up for it, so that everyone knew the lesson of this time, and the royal family would definitely not be perfunctory for the sake of face.
"It's okay. ”
Dong Qingdu looked at this year's students, and he remembered that some of them were indeed amazing.
smiled, Dong Qinghe's level is better than any student in it, so naturally there is no room for evaluation.
"By the way, I heard that Grandpa Zhou will hold a banquet tomorrow to celebrate the end of the exam. ”
"Well, do you want to go?" Dong Qingdu wondered, there were all men there, what was she going to do.
"I heard that Aunt Zhou Yue's husband is here. ”
"Hmm. Dong Qingdu nodded, there is such a thing.
"Qiu Wei has not been in a very good mood these two days, and her painting is a must, so why don't you invite that uncle-in-law to come to the Dong Mansion to sit and give some advice. ”
"Okay, I asked him to come over in the past two days, and after this time, I don't know where he ran again. ”
"Then why did he come to Taijing?"
"One of the people who took the imperial examination this time was his nephew, and his sister specially asked him to bring him to take the imperial examination. ”
"The purpose should be Master Zhou. Dong Qinghe's tone was affirmative.
"Not bad. ”
"Then why didn't I hear you before. ”
"Oh, he took others around the world for half a year, until two days before the imperial examination, when others came back by themselves, they rested in their own courtyard and went to the examination room. He himself had only arrived the day before yesterday, just in time for the results to be announced. ”
"Really. Dong Qinghe shook his head, this person is really interesting.
"Don't say it, someone else took the first place this time. ”
"Really. Dong Qinghe became interested: "He Ziran?"
"Yes, originally he was not the first place, but the saint was hand-picked after reading the articles of the previous ones, and it is not surprising that he is the champion. ”
They have all been hand-picked by the emperor, and they can't be the champions of the internal designation.
"How's the people?"
The new champion Lang is still a young man, can he not make people curious, Dong Qinghe is also extremely curious.
"Mo Shang is like a gentleman, and Brother Qingya can afford such praise. ”
Dong Qingdu praised, this is rare, what kind of person is Dong Qingdu, after Master Zhou saw it, he directly decided to accept him as a disciple of the closed door, with him, no one else cares.
is not a wild person, but Dong Qingdu can be called a brother and brother with a cloth body and up to the Son of Heaven, down to the ordinary people of Li and the people in the rivers and lakes, which can be regarded as a miracle.
Except for Luo Chen, no young man has ever received such an evaluation, and even his sister-in-law, Dong Qingdu, praised her, yes, she didn't lose the face of the medicine king Gu for curing the disease.
At this time, Dong Qinghe's interest in He Ziran became even stronger.
"Okay, don't let Wuhai know. Dong Qingdu's eyes were full of smiles, his sister made his brother speechless like this, okay.
If Wuhai had any Ziran's family background, he would have been the champion back then, as if he was suppressed for some reason and became a successor.
"I know, I'm not going to rub salt into his wounds. Dong Qinghe nodded magnanimously.
Dong Qingdu laughed, Wuhai likes to tease her, and Dong Qinghe didn't let him bully him with words.
Two days later, Dong Qingdu invited Master Zhou's son-in-law and He Ziran to come to Dong's mansion.
There are really too many people who came to invite them to the banquet, He Ziran followed Master Zhou and them to take refuge in Dong's Mansion, and had a chat with Dong Qingdu yesterday, and He Ziran was also a confidant.
When Master Zhou came, it was naturally from Dong Chengshuo, Han Zhen to Dong Qinghe, Qiuwei, and they all waited obediently.
Dong Chengshuo was waiting at the door, and Dong Qingdu went to Zhou Yuan to pick up the people.
"Uncle Zhou Shi. Dong Chengshuo saluted Master Zhou.
"Chengshuo, I haven't been to Zhouyuan for a long time, but I don't want to call us old men. ”
"If anything, isn't this sending Qingdu every day to ask for peace. ”
"Haha, alright, let's go inside. ”
"Brother Shuren. ”
"Brother Minghuan. ”
"Brother Shuren hasn't seen him for a long time, he deals with mundane things every day, and he is still so tough. ”
"That's Brother Minghuan is too lazy. ”
followed by a young man, who was He Ziran, who was the first in the new science and technology jinshi: "Dong Shibo." ”
"This is the first place in the new department, He Xian's nephew. ”
"It's the little nephew. ”
The group entered, and at the gate of the inner courtyard, Han Zhen led Dong Qinghe, Qiu Wei, and Pei Nian to wait.
"Uncle Zhou Shi. ”
Han Zhen was very polite, when she first came to Taijing, Master Zhou saw that she was brilliant and gave her some advice.
"Jane girl. ”
Dong Qinghe in the back covered her lips and smiled, it was the first time she had heard someone call Han Zhen Zhen's girl.
On weekdays, Han Zhen always has a straight face and a serious look, which is quite interesting.
"Qinghe girl, why did you run to the back, come, I thought you were going to pick me up in Zhou Yuan, I waited for a long time in vain. ”
"Grandpa Zhou, is it that my brother is not filial, you tell me, and I will help you teach him a lesson. ”
"I don't know the rules, that's your brother, how can I let you make a move. Saying this, Master Zhou's face was not half dissatisfied.
"Isn't that for your sake. ”
"Hahaha. Everyone around laughed, especially Dong Qingdu, who couldn't cry or laugh, this little girl, really, well, it seems that he has to find a chance to prove his brother's status.
He Ziran was also full of smiles, he could see that there was really no gap between the Dong family and the Zhou family, even if it was a real family, no one would be like this.
Sure enough, only such a family can be called the first family in the world.
Dong Qinghe looked behind, behind Master Zhou, and next to Dong Chengshuo was an elegant middle-aged man, handsome, graceful, and a pair of peach blossom eyes as if he could speak.
Dong Qingdu was accompanied by a young man in the back, with a handsome face, as clean and bright as an ink painting in the sun, gentle and polite.
