In the Shuncheon Gongyuan, the examination work has come to an end.

Eight fellow examiners reviewed more than 4,000 papers, recommended the wonderful test papers, and after the second round of screening by the deputy examiner Hu Zhengmeng, Lin Haoran finally made the final choice.

Lin Haoran is a young man after all, and he has always maintained a very energetic working state. He was very attentive to the selection of 300 protégés, not only reviewing the examination papers submitted by the deputy examiner Hu Zhengmeng, but also "searching for them" in the examination papers they had knocked down.

He is well aware that there is a conflict of interests in the eighth room, and if the recommended test papers of which room are selected less, he will focus more on that room to "search for relics".

Lin Haoran has his experience of being an official: being an official cannot only rely on power, and means are equally important. This did not harm the examiner's vital interests, and at the same time ensured the fairness of the selection of talents in this meeting.

Like Zhang Di of the Ministry of Engineering in the sixth room, this authentic old-school style likes candidates who are experienced in answering the questions of the Four Books and Five Classics, but Lin Haoran prefers candidates who write well in policy and theory.

Zhang Di was originally very displeased with Lin Haoran's set, but he just watched the other party take more than a dozen copies from his room without humming, which was far higher than the other rooms, and secretly felt a sense of gratitude in his heart.

Ahem......

In the review of the test papers in the past ten days, the voice that everyone heard the most was the coughing sound of the deputy examiner Hu Zhengmeng.

In the first few days, everyone was still more concerned about Hu Zhengmeng, and many fellow examiners would take the initiative to care about a few words. It's just that in the following time, they slowly got used to it.

It's not that Hu Zhengmeng's condition has improved, but that his condition has slowly deteriorated, and even another examiner coughed, but Hu Zhengmeng could only hold on.

It was impossible for Lang Zhong to be invited in, and it was impossible for them to persuade Hu Zhengmeng to go out to see a doctor. Although the deputy examiner cannot accept protégés, he also occupies the position of teachers and students, but it is a rich political wealth.

is also the case, no one will go to persuade Hu Zhengmeng to go out to see a doctor without a long eye, and seeing Hu Zhengmeng choose to hold on, he treats Hu Zhengmeng as if he is nothing.

Lin Haoran devoted himself to the work of reviewing the file, and when it was time for democracy, he would listen to the opinions of Zhang Siwei and others, but he was never ambiguous when it was time to make a decision.

In essence, Zhang Siwei and the other eight officials who were the same examiners were all below the fifth grade, so it was naturally impossible for them to dare to argue with the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Rites who was in the third grade, which was simply self-defeating.

"So good, that place is ...... Ahem, that's it! ”

When the final ranking was agreed, the sick Hu Meng was trying to open his eyes and respond to the list listed by Lin Haoran without any objections.

He and Lin Haoran seem to have reached a certain degree of tacit understanding, Lin Haoran will not look for his sick stubble, and he will not point fingers at the list and marking.

It is precisely in this way that the ranking of this examination has been officially finalized. Since these scrolls are all serial numbers, even if Lin Haoran has already determined the ranking of the examination, he still doesn't know who high school it is.

The next morning, after breakfast.

Lin Haoran came to Jukui Hall, smiled at the nine examiners present and said, "Let's go!" ”

After nearly a month of closed life, they finally ushered in the final day of filling in the list, and as long as they completed the last procedure, they were able to regain their freedom.

Nearly a month is not a short time, even if they don't feel bored, they will miss their wives and children, and care about whether the current situation has changed.

"President, please!"

Zhang Siwei and the others were also in a happy mood, so they gave in to Lin Haoran one after another, and then left Jukui Hall with Lin Haoran.

On the stone bridge, a bugle army is here to defend to the death. just watched Lin Haoran and a group of officials go over, but they didn't stop them, but respectfully lined up to welcome them and let them pass here.

When Zhang Siwei walked across the stone bridge, he suddenly felt as if everything had become unreal, but he turned his head and glanced in the direction of Jukuitang.

Lin Haoran and his entourage came to the Zhigong Hall, where a group of external curtain officials were already waiting.

"I've seen the president!"

Zhang Yue, the left deputy capital of the Imperial Inspectorate, led a group of external curtain officials to stand up from their seats one after another, and saluted Lin Haoran respectfully.

Zhang Yue and Lin Haoran are both positive three products, but the difference between the identities and status of the two is not small, especially Lin Haoran is the chief examiner of this examination, so it is natural to respect Lin Haoran.

In essence, the person sitting in the second position was not Zhang Yue, the left deputy capital of the Imperial Inspectorate of the Metropolitan Inspection Academy, but Hu Mengzheng, the deputy chief examiner of the Hanlin Academy.

Lin Haoran sat down on the first seat and said a few polite words to the outer curtain officials present, and the outer curtain officials present were humble.

Lin Haoran took out the "list" that had been prepared a long time ago, but handed this fold directly to Zhang Yue, the left deputy capital of the Metropolitan Inspection Academy.

Zhang Yue took over the "list" and handed it over to the external officials below, and several external officials quickly took the three hundred ink rolls corresponding to the "list" into the hall as if they were grabbing medicine according to the order.

In order to avoid an oolong incident, the reader not only carefully verified the serial number of the test paper, but also took the ink roll and the red roll brought by the inner curtain official to carefully grind it.

This kind of comparison between the content of the red roll and the ink roll, although it is more troublesome to do and will consume a lot of time, will undoubtedly greatly reduce the probability of oolong.

It can be said that the examination has a lot to do with it, and if something goes wrong, it may be another shocking "big fraud case," and then all the officials present will suffer.

It is under this system of "trouble" that not only prevents fraud to the greatest extent, but also greatly reduces the possibility of oolong.

"Where do you say Imakai's Huiyuan is from?"

"It's definitely still Nanjuan, I guess it's Nan Zhili this time!"

"Huh...... I'm more concerned about whether the official roll wins the championship or the private roll wins! ”

……

A group of idle officials watched the reading officer busy, and also whispered.

This year's examination has an innovative move, but under the promotion of Lin Haoran, it is the use of official and private papers, which undoubtedly increases the topicality to a certain extent.

"Your Excellency President, the lower officials have repeatedly confirmed that the Zhu Roll and the Ink Roll are exactly the same, but I don't know if I can open the roll call and roll call?" The reader stepped forward and said respectfully.

Lin Haoran took a sip of tea, nodded lightly and said, "It's hard work, let's unwrap the roll call now!" ”

Even if it is in the middle of the red scroll, it is also in a state of "vagueness" at this time. If you don't open the seal, I don't know which candidate this high school ink roll is.

The roll call has already formed a fixed process, and it is also the favorite link of the officials below.

The sealing officer has verified that the three hundred test papers are sealed correctly, and after the gaze of Zhang Yue, the temporary test officer, and other officials, the first high school ink roll was opened in public.

"The third hundredth, Chen Yu, from Duyuan County, Sichuan!"

The officials who opened the seals sang loudly while showing them to the officials.

An official immediately wrote down a note, but it was handed directly to a scribe who had been waiting for a long time, and the scribe took the note but ran briskly outside.

The Suncheon Gongyuan had already formed more than a dozen teams, and after getting a note, they ran into the street with gongs and drums, heading towards the place where the high school scholar lived.

The triennial annunciation session kicked off again, and the whole city of Beijing ushered in the most festive moment.
