Chapter 542: It's a big fuss
Seeing that the official wanted to speak and stopped, Li Zhengfang would come to his senses, and frowned again and said, "Who are you entrusting?" β
"A nephew of Lord Zhou." Officials returned.
"Among the students who are taking the exam, how did he perform?" Li Zhengfang asked again.
The official said: "Very good, there is a chance to forge ahead, if the adults pay attention to it a little......
"Alright." Li Zhengfang interrupted him and said: "Let's talk about these later, the king attaches great importance to the matter of taking the exam this time, we must do things beautifully, and admit the best of the best, this principle will not change, you tell Lord Zhou, his nephew, if it is a wine bag and rice bag, the official just wants to sell him this face, I'm afraid there is nothing he can do." β
"The lower officials understand, the lower officials understand." Officials replied one after another.
Li Zhengfang is not a very upright person, or rather, he wanders around the officialdom and has his own set of methods.
The so-called Wen Wu is the first, if the nephew of Nei Youshi is similar to a certain student's article, then Li Zhengfang will definitely give priority to the Zhou family, there is no doubt about it.
After the official left, it didn't take long for someone to come to report:
"My lord, General Zhang asks to see you."
"Who?" Li Zhengfang didn't react a little, why did the generals in this army come.
"Zhang Dashan, General Zhang." The servant repeated.
"Come in."
Zhang Dashan, who has the merit of founding the country, is a famous figure who dares to fight tough battles among the middle-level generals of the Qin army.
followed Xiao Yuan's southern expedition to the north and made great contributions, and today, he is already a general of the third grade, and his status is definitely not low.
Therefore, Li Zhengfang did not dare to slack off, but hurriedly invited him into the living room and ordered his subordinates to serve tea.
The two sat down separately, Li Zhengfang picked up the teacup and blew it gently, and said at the same time: "The general is visiting today, I don't know what you are doing?" β
Zhang Dashan is a rough person, he doesn't have so many curves, and he doesn't understand officialdom, so he said bluntly with a smile:
"That's the case, this time the king Enke is responsible for Lord Li, I have a cousin's child, who has read poetry and books since he was a child, is very talented, and has always wanted to gain fame, but there is no good opportunity, this time, I hope Lord Li can take care of one or two."
After hearing this, Li Zhengfang shook his head with a wry smile and said, "General, it's not that the official is unwilling to help, but that the matter is big and small." β
"Hehe, where do you speak?" Zhang Dashan laughed dryly and said: "If that kid has no talent, adults will ignore it, but he has real talent and real learning, and I just hope that it can make it more convenient for him." β
"This ......," Li Zhengfang didn't know what to say.
Zhang Dashan said again: "Lord Li also knows, it's okay for me to let Zhang Dashan fight, but I can't read and break words, I can't do it at all, my old Zhang family, I finally came up with such a literati, I can't miss the great opportunity, I really ask Lord Li......"
As he spoke, he quickly got up and gave a salute.
Seeing this, Li Zhengfang could only stand up: "The general is polite, the general is polite......"
In the past two days, among the high-ranking officials in the Li Mansion, I don't know how many high-ranking officials have come to visit.
It's human nature.
A few days later, the official document was promulgated under the leadership of the ministry, and the big examination began.
For a while, students from all over the world rushed to the examination room with excitement.
This time, the main examination room alone has added several places, and every other hour, there will be a new batch of candidates, and the main examination alone lasted for more than ten days, which shows the number of students.
At the request of the royal court, only thirty people were admitted for the final palace examination.
To fight a bloody way out of so many students, it can be seen that the competition is fierce.
But once you become one of these thirty people, you will be a servant! Even if you can't become an official right away, you're still a scholar and the like.
Gaining the affirmation of the imperial court and becoming a scholar from a commoner to a scholar is an absolute qualitative change, so no matter what, people are squeezing their heads to fight this time.
Needless to say, the tragedy in the examination room was no longer necessary, and after more than ten days, led by Li Zhengfang, together with all the subordinate officials of the ministry, the list of these 40 people was finally determined.
Subsequently, on behalf of the royal court, in the form of a notice, it was posted at the south gate of Qinzhou.
On the day of the opening of the list, at the south gate, there was a sea of people, and before the announcement, it had already been surrounded by water.
In the crowd, how many students are tiptoeing forward.
You must know that this list is not trivial, but it is related to the lifelong future of these students.
Someone was lying in front of the notice, looking for it name by name.
Someone shook his head and sighed: "Ten years of hard study, but I still failed to make the list......"
As he spoke, he also screamed sadly, turned around and wanted to leave in disappointment.
But there are also people who seem to have discovered something.
"Look! Look! β
"Huh? What's wrong? β
"Look at these names on the list, if it's correct, they should all be students from Qin and Shu!"
"What!?" TV debut
Someone didn't pay attention at first, and was about to leave disappointed, but when he heard this, he immediately came back, and when he saw it, he also reacted, and immediately shouted:
"That's right! And so it is! β
"It's too much! There is not a single northern student on the list! β
"Why are we northern students excluded!"
"Wang Ting, this is unfair!"
"Scandal! It's a scandal in the worldβ"
The crowd exploded all at once!
You know, these are all readers.
There are so many students in the north, and there are many talented ones, even if the admission rate is lower than that of Qinshu and Shu, how can no one be on the list!
This clearly made everyone feel a sense of injustice and resentment!
I have been in the cold window for ten years, and now I am about to take the big test, and the mentality of losing the list is beyond words, and I have encountered this kind of thing again, and the scene can be imagined.
The crowd that exploded spread to the entire South Gate at once.
"If you have the courage, come with me to the king!"
"That's right! Tell me before the kingβ"
There was no need for much agitation at all, and countless students, in the midst of shouting and cheering, began to gather in groups, leaving the south gate and heading all the way to the Qin Palace.
The scene looked full of young people dressed as scholars, who came from all over the north, and after reaching the main street, the procession grew larger and larger, and there were thousands of people.
On both sides of the street, people watched, pointing and pointing.
The entire Qinzhou City seemed to be boiling because of this incident.
In the Wuwei Mansion, a soldier ran in in a panic.
