Chapter 48: The Temple Tries to Ask

The wind passed without a trace, the Hou Mansion sacrificed to the ancestors in the Qingming Festival, and originally wanted to run a seven-day water and land dojo at home, but it was also canceled because Shu Hongxuan was about to take the palace test, so he had to worship the ancestors, hoping that the ancestors would bless the children of the family and win glory for the family.

At the beginning of April, the weather has warmed up, the heavy winter clothes have long been taken off, and people wearing spring shirts can be seen everywhere on the streets.

On the eighth and fifth watches of the first month of April, all the lights in the Guangping Houfu were already lit, and even the small courtyard where Yang Jincheng lived was woken up by the movement of walking back and forth outside the courtyard.

At the end of the day, Shu Hongxuan was already refreshed and was waiting for Shu Xiuhe in the front yard.

Second Uncle Shu also got up early, today was the day of the palace exam, he was afraid that his nephew would be nervous, so he also accompanied him to the palace gate.

Shu Xiuhe saw his son and second brother in the front yard, looked Shu Hongxuan up and down carefully, and saw that he was not dressed inappropriately, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and walked out first, "Let's go, let's send you to the palace gate." ā€

Got into the carriage and said nothing all the way, and when he arrived at the palace gate, Shu Hongxuan jumped out of the carriage and saluted his father and second uncle in the carriage: "Dad, second uncle, Xuan'er has gone." ā€

Shu Xiuhe looked at the eldest son standing outside the carriage, seeing his beautiful eyebrows, through his eyebrows, he could clearly recall the face of another woman, behind him was the solemn palace gate, he went to fight for the career.

I didn't want to see him anymore in my heart, Shu Xiuhe also temporarily let go of his disgust, but told him again uneasily: "When you enter the palace gate, you must be cautious in your words and deeds, and you must not cause more trouble and leave the family behind." ā€

Shu Hongxuan sneered in his heart, this father only cared about whether he would cause trouble for the family, and respectfully promised on his face.

Shu Hongxuan didn't bother to pay attention to him anymore, turned around and strode towards the palace gate, there was a small yellow door outside the palace gate, and many people in regular clothes were already lining up to verify their identities in front of him.

Soon it was Shu Hongxuan's turn, and after the little yellow door checked the identity credentials, he led Shu Hongxuan into the palace gate without being humble or arrogant, beckoned to the side of the palace gate, and another little yellow door stepped forward quickly, leading Shu Hongxuan to the side hall of the Baohe Hall to wait.

The rooster crowed at dawn, the sky was already bright, and the students waiting in the side hall were still standing respectfully in the hall, not talking to each other, only looking at others from the corner of their eyes.

Shu Hongxuan is the youngest of all the people, although the clothes are refreshing, the texture is excellent, and he can't buy it if he has any money leftover, and his bearing is a little better than that of others.

A eunuch came from outside the hall, first saluted everyone in the hall, and then said: "Please go with a certain family, and a certain family will take you to see the holy face." ā€

It means that the preparation for the temple examination has begun.

Everyone coincidentally sorted out their clothes, and consciously lined up according to the ranking of the examination, Shu Hongxuan and the second place in the examination were lined up, and then everyone followed, and the eunuch led everyone to stop outside the gate of the Baohe Palace.

The Imperial Forest Army guarding outside the palace gate took a look, and then one person entered the palace to report, and the others looked at the group coldly.

Soon the voice of the eunuch came from the hall: "Xuan Xiping will try to meet the students of Enke in the thirty-second year." ā€

The eunuch who led Shu Hongxuan and the others walked to the hall first, and the others followed closely.

"Bow down to the holy face."

Everyone, including Shu Hongxuan, lowered their eyes after entering the hall, only looking at the boots of one person in front, one person in front of them stopped, and everyone after them stopped.

When they were in the side hall, there were already eunuchs who told them about the etiquette in the palace, and although they were nervous at this time, they could all complete it meticulously.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

Everyone knelt on their knees, their foreheads touched the ground, and lay quietly on their stomachs, not daring to make the slightest move.

"Let's all be flat."

An easy-going voice came from inside the hall.

"Emperor Xie."

Emperor Chengde looked at the hundreds of people standing in the hall, waved his hand, and the ceremonial official who was waiting on the side held a roster in his hand, looked around at the students in the hall, and said loudly: "In the order of the saint, point to the famous person, take three steps forward and raise your head to face the saint." ā€

"Xiping's thirty-second annual meeting will test the subject of the Yuan, Shu Hongxuan."

Shu Hongxuan took three steps forward as he said, raised his head slightly, his eyes only touched the armrest of the dragon chair, and he didn't dare to look directly at Long Yan.

"Homecoming."

Shu Hongxuan slowly retreated to his position.

"The second place in the examination of the 32nd annual meeting of Xiping, Lu Xun."

Another middle-aged man standing next to Shu Hongxuan also did the same thing according to Shu Hongxuan's approach.

......

Until all the hundreds of people were named, it had been half an hour.

Emperor Chengde waved his hand, "Let's start." ā€

Then Shu Hongxuan saw a very efficient scene.

In just one cup of tea, there were more than 100 bookcases and futons in the Baohe Palace, and the four treasures of the study room were also neatly placed on the bookcase.

When he sat down on the futon, Shu Hongxuan was still sighing in his heart, and he didn't know how those palace people came out, he laid everything out in the blink of an eye, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Emperor Chengde saw that all the students were seated and beckoned, Cai Sande quickly set up a piece of rice paper, studied the ink, and respectfully stepped aside.

Emperor Chengde took the pen and ink, and after putting down the pen, he recruited Cai Sande.

Cai Sande carefully picked up the white paper, walked down the steps in small steps, handed the white paper to Chu Sijing, the head of the cabinet standing on the side of the hall, and whispered: "Chu Xiang, this is the trial of the palace today." ā€

Chu Sijing picked up the white paper with both hands, took a closer look, first bowed to Emperor Chengde who was sitting on the dragon chair, and then walked to the center of the Baohe Palace.

Chu Sijing looked around and said in a deep voice: "The thirty-second year of Xiping has tried to ask: Since the Han and Tang dynasties, the Juntian system has been proved by today's situation. [Note]

Chu Sijing repeated this three times, and said: "The palace exam has begun, it will last for two hours, and the students will answer the questions." ā€

Chu Sijing's words fell, and the official put the missing inscription on the small bookcase, and the palace examination officially began.

Shu Hongxuan raised his hand and slowly sharpened the ink, thinking about this question in his heart.

From the township examination to the general examination, all the test questions are made by the chief examiner, only the palace examination, it is the emperor himself who makes the questions, and the emperor's political tendency can also be seen from the policy questions of the palace examination.

This month, he often asked questions at the teacher's home, but none of them were related to the land system.

This was the first time in this dynasty that there was a palace trial question about the land system.

Shu Hongxuan grinded seriously, his lowered eyelids covered his emotions, and no one could see a fine light flickering in it.

Looking at this question alone, on the surface, it seems that it is only a system that unites the current reality of the Juntian system, but in fact, the Juntian system is just a fig leaf to hide people's ears and eyes, and the inside is actually to solve the increasingly serious problem of land annexation in the Great Xia Dynasty.

The emperor, who had reigned for thirty-two years, couldn't help but want to stretch his sword into the issue of land annexation?

In addition to Shu Hongxuan and a few other politically astute students, the cabinet ministers who came to the Baohe Hall with Emperor Chengde also saw the deep meaning.

......

ps: [Note] For the sake of this palace trial policy, I checked the information for a day, and finally when I was about to despair and thought about changing the outline because of this, the emperor lived up to his heart and found it! If you are interested, you can take a look at the "Chinese Champion Hall Examination Papers", my question is based on the questions of the Qing Dynasty Palace Examination.
