1507, Opportunity
"Who, Cheng Qian!" Zhong Mei read again in surprise.
Then I don't know what I thought, my eyes were surprisingly bright, my eyes were squinting as if I was calculating something step by step, and the look in my eyes surged that people faintly felt that something was wrong when they saw it.
However, after Zhong Mei's eyes lit up surprisingly, he suddenly became a little gloomy, looking at the palace people who were still kneeling on the ground, he immediately said impatiently: "This palace knows, go down!" ”
The people in the palace were also a little puzzled by Zhong Mei's uncertain feelings, but they didn't dare to say more, so they immediately retreated.
Although everyone in the palace knows that Zhong Mei has fallen out of favor, but Zhong Mei's food and clothing, no one dares to deduct it for the time being, even if this Zhong Mei fell out of favor because of a crime, but she is still the master, isn't it, there are really slaves who bully the master, that is generally out of favor for many years, and there is really no possibility of a comeback, so there will be that possibility.
Living in the palace, they are all human spirits, how can it be so easy to offend people.
And Zhong Mei has not been out of favor for a long time, she is still young and beautiful, one day Emperor Tianxuan suddenly felt that she was satisfied, and then to pamper her, this matter is not too much in the palace, of course, how much effort these concubines have made, only they know.
And on the other hand, Zhong Mei came with her relatives in the end, otherwise, she would have died if she only murdered the royal heir, and the relationship between the two countries was also endured, with such a relationship, Zhong Mei wanted to resurrect more than ordinary concubines.
It's just that Zhong Mei was demoted to Zhaoyi, and it is not appropriate to call it this palace again, which generally has to be called above the concubine, but Zhong Mei lives in the Fanmei Palace, Emperor Tianxuan did not take it back, and the palace people laughed behind their backs, but on the bright side, they still didn't dare to say that Zhong Mei fell out of favor, and he was still there to take the shelf and so on.
And Zhong Mei sat alone, the expression on his face was complicated and difficult to understand, the champion turned out to be Cheng Qian, haha, it turned out to be Cheng Qian!
Isn't this Cheng Qian a gentleman, how did he suddenly come to Wencai and win the champion, is this a joke? Was this trip a game before?
Now Zhong Mei is really unlucky, until after being demoted, she almost doesn't go out of the palace very much, because as long as she goes out, not only the concubines, but also the palace people look at her and laugh, Zhong Mei feels that others are laughing at her, she always wants to be good-tempered, but at this time, she doesn't have much domineering capital, she has to endure it everywhere, not to mention how depressed she is.
When people are unlucky, they always like to compare with others, if someone is better than you, you will be jealous, in fact, jealousy is such a thing, everyone has it, after all, people are not saints, they can't escape the seven emotions and six desires, and being jealous that others are better than themselves is that people should have.
But jealousy is not just bad, I am jealous of someone who is better than me, so I have to be stronger than her, this jealousy can become a motivation for you to keep improving, this jealousy is also good.
But often some people's jealousy turns this line of work to malice. I am jealous of someone better than me, I hate her for being better than me, and so on, but some people choose this jealousy to maliciously attack others, and make themselves more and more dark, which is a bad jealousy.
Zhong Mei has always felt that she will be better than Ding Shuang, she supports Ding Shuang and her husband's family, and then lets Ding Shuang feedback back, and then become her help, this is the most satisfying, so that she will always press on Ding Shuang, isn't it.
But now, Zhong Mei belongs to the harem concubines who have fallen out of favor, and she basically has no power in the palace, and she didn't take a fancy to it, and even felt that the person who calculated a marriage for Ding Shuang seemed to be suddenly more beautiful than her, Ding Shuang is now the champion lady!
No, she originally calculated not Cheng Qian, but the Cheng Qi who had been deprived of the qualification for scientific research, and then a bunch of things happened, before it became this Cheng Qian, if Ding Shuang was married to Cheng Qi, she would not be able to get the power of the Ministry of War, and at the same time, her husband was still a wreck, a waste, and could only eat forever. If that's the case, compared with the current Zhong Meiyi, she still feels better.
But now, she couldn't be happier!
Even if she thought of a better possibility at the same time, it turned out that the medium-range device also had its development potential and could be used, so she chose him, and Zhong Mei also had the idea of supporting. And originally felt that there was no hope after being punished by Emperor Tianxuan, Zhong Mei no longer cared about Cheng Mei, and now Cheng Qian, who married Ding Shuang, is already the champion, although it is not the same as the original plan, but this yin and yang error can also bring help to Zhong Mei, not to mention that she is now in the palace, she is a little isolated, this is a good opportunity, isn't it.
She should be happy, but she can't!
But even if she couldn't be happy, Zhong Mei knew that her chance had come!
At this time, Yang Changjian, whose face was red and a little embarrassed, was also in front of Yuncang and Bingyan.
Obviously, when the list was released, Yang Changjian was already confident of winning the championship, but he didn't expect that when he finally went to the palace to test, he was still a little worse, and finally was ordered by Emperor Tianxuan, which must be a somewhat disappointing result.
Yun Cang looked at Yang Changjian and said, "Do you know why there is a palace test?" ”
Yang Changjian thought about it and said seriously: "That's because if you want the emperor to understand the outstanding talents in this world, it can be regarded as an opportunity to meet." ”
Emperor Tianxuan is so high, how can he see it when he sees it, that is, some officials who are officials in the court and have been awarded grades, and some people have never had the opportunity to see Long Yan once in their lives, do you think it is strange? This is quite normal!
There are a lot of students in the world, and the three-year scientific examination will once again send in a group of students, and if these people have just entered the court, it is naturally impossible to give many important positions, and they are generally given some jobs such as repairing books, so as to examine these people, and then arrange them for more suitable positions.
The court needs to be qualified, you say this is a vain head, is it just a face? Not really.
For example, an ambitious student, young, enthusiastic, wants to do a lot of practical things for the country, but can he really do it?
No, most of them just pay lip service to the good of it, and when they get it to practical application, they may not be fart. It's not that they are stupid to read, it's just that they don't have the experience of practical application, and every thing has to go through repeated trials and studies when it is launched again.
And these students, empty ambition is not enough, what they lack of this reality, is to learn by boiling qualifications, of course, some geniuses, have already learned and practice to understand, these people are saving, but most of them need a process.
Therefore, this qualification is a necessary process, and the advantages found in it, suitable positions, etc., can be assigned at any time, and if there is a shortage of officials or something, they can just go up.
And there are some people who can't enter the palace examination, that is, those talents who have not been focused on, are they really not good? Some are, and some are not.
Some people can't do it in books, but they use it very well.
Let's put it this way, in Tianxuan Country, anyone above the number of people can be officials, but such people are generally very low, and even some are not ranked, such as being a master, being a bookkeeper in the yamen, and so on. Some can also rely on relationships, who can also go up if they come down, of course, there are some remote and particularly poor places, ordinary people are not willing to go, these places really can't find particularly good candidates, so there are people who are directly on the top, and there are people who are county masters.
And these people are not without the possibility of rising, then they have to rely on their ability, and this ability is their political achievement!
For example, if you become a county magistrate, if you take office and put the people under your management in order, and the people within the scope of your management praise you and record your political achievements, it is naturally possible that it will rise.
And such a person also has a legend all the way to become a legend.
Therefore, the scholar is the most likely person to come out of the Tianxuan country, and the most likely to change the predicament, no matter how poor the family is, they all want their children to be able to learn words, learn knowledge, and enter the government in the future, which is also the reason.
It's a bit far away, and those who don't get particularly good grades in the exam naturally don't have the opportunity to see the face of the saint.
Thinking about it this way, Yang Changjian can only think bitterly, at least better than those people.
Yun Cang looked at Yang Changjian, but he snorted and disagreed: "No, your idea is wrong." ”
"Huh?" Yang Changjian was stunned for a moment, a little uncertain, so he looked at Yun Cang, and naturally it was inevitable that he saw the ice smoke sitting next to Yun Cang.
In fact, at the beginning, Yang Changjian was also a little surprised, Prince Cang didn't seem to carry Princess Cang on his back for anything, he actually trusted Princess Cang like this, and said that women only care about the back house, Princess Cang is obviously the core of contact with Prince Cang, can she even participate in major events?
Yang Changjian only kept this matter in mind and didn't say much.
Yun Cang had already squinted his eyes and said: "You are wrong, or many people think wrong, the so-called palace test is actually just a few people who the emperor chooses to have eyes and think he likes, and the final selection in the palace test is actually just a personal hobby." How much difference is between the real talents of the top 10, there are differences from all walks of life, or there is not much difference at all, and the pick is just a personal favorite. ”
Yang Changjian was completely stunned by Yun Cang's words, this ...... Can this be explained in this way?
It's just because of the emperor's preferences, in fact, who is better in the top ten, there is no need to rank high or low at all, can it really be explained like this?
Yang Changjian suddenly felt that a new door was opening in front of him, and at the same time, he thought about the clouds again, this Cang Wang Ye was really more and more different from what he imagined!
