Chapter 196
However, when Yan Yi and Sima Xiangru finished the last exam, the first examination of the imperial examination was all over.
However, the people who collected these examination papers were all soldiers present, not those small officials.
In order to ensure the fairness of this imperial examination, it was decided to do so after Jia Yi and Chao Cuo discussed.
Solidly, when all the people in the examination left the scene, they saw more than a dozen soldiers putting the bamboo slips on the Zhang Zhang book case into the cloth bag one by one.
In the end, when all the bamboo slips were gathered, it was a troika.
However, this is only the result of the one-day examination..................
However, when this first trial is over, Liu Rong naturally can no longer be a wall-by-side watcher, if only a few people read it, and it will be evaluated to determine its merits, then I don't know how busy it will be.
Seeing this, after Liu Rong thought about it, he immediately drove to the Prime Minister's Office to see Zhou Yafu.
At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the Prime Minister's Office was almost equivalent to half of the central center of the imperial court, and there were many copywriters in its office, so Liu Rong wanted to find Zhou Yafu to borrow some people to use it.
When Zhou Yafu heard this, he naturally responded immediately, and said with a smile: "What His Highness said, why can't it be done."
Immediately, Zhou Yafu ordered nearly a dozen copywriters to be sent and asked Liu Rong to use them at will.
However, since the imperial examination does not limit schools, anyone who learns any school can do it, so if you want to be the judge of this examination, you must be a person of great knowledge.
Of course, this is to fall on Jia Yi and Chao Cuo, borrowing these copywriters from Zhou Yafu, Liu Rong wants these full-time copywriting officials to be able to assist the two on the side, or at least to copy some things for the two on the side.
As early as the beginning, the three of them were decided, and there were only ten officials who were elected to the court office this time.
In this preliminary examination, more than 3,000 people were examined, but only 100 people who had passed the initial examination were eliminated.
Therefore, Jia Yi and Chao Cuo are very busy, and in normal times, they have to deal with their own affairs and participate in court discussions.
However, when Jia Yi appointed Lang Zhongling, there are not too many things, but Chao Cuo is different, the meaning of the existence of the imperial history is to supervise the officials of the world, as the highest supervisory authority of the Han family, how can Chao Cuo not be busy.
However, the two of them didn't say anything, and they worked overtime for a few days to finish the judgment.
Because of his own affairs, he bothered these two people so much, Liu Rong naturally felt a little reluctant in his heart.
After thinking about it, I went to the Qilin Hall to meet my father.
"The son of the emperor to meet his father!".
Seeing that Liu Rong was coming, Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, said, "What is the matter with coming to see me today?" ”。
"Back to my father, the son's advice, the first test of the imperial examination has been completed, this is thanks to the imperial doctor and the teacher, the son wants to feast the two of them, and I hope that the father and the emperor will approve it."
……………………………………………………………………………
However, the prince of the Han family has some friendship with the courtiers, and the Son of Heaven will naturally not care about it, but if it is a deep friendship, the Son of Heaven will definitely not like it in his heart.
As the heir of the Son of Heaven and the future Son of Heaven of the Han family, the crown prince's daily routine is naturally to discuss politics with the courtiers.
Even so, the prince has too much personal friendship with the courtiers, and the Son of Heaven will not like it, and the current boss is still there, so he wants to go to the next boss first, and the Son of Heaven must be unhappy in his heart.
In particular, Liu Rong's current identity is more sensitive, he is a candidate for the prince, although everyone can see it, but at this time he still has not become the prince.
The most taboo thing for the superior is that some courtiers who think they are smart think they can see the thoughts of the Son of Heaven.
Whether you guess it correctly or not, it will make the superior dislike.
Yang Xiu of the Three Kingdoms was like this, and he killed himself step by step.
thinks that he can see Cao Cao's mind and show off his talent again and again.
In the end, its boss Cao Cao couldn't bear it, and Cao Cao, who wanted to come at that time, also wanted to say, "Do you want you to teach me to do things?" ”
And this Yang Xiu finally died because of a chicken rib.
…………………………………………………………………………
Therefore, Liu Rong came to ask his father to explain the matter, and Liu Qi, the son of heaven, said after a while: "I am accurate."
Who is Liu Qi, that is the Son of Heaven who rules the territory of the Han Dynasty, the arrogance of the Son of Heaven, has long been integrated into his blood and bones, if it is only because Liu Rong only feasted with these two people, he doubts the loyalty of these two to himself, then there is no need to have any ambitions.
Liu Rong said: "The son of the emperor thanks his father."
Therefore, after the court meeting ended on this day and all of them left the Xuanshu Palace, Liu Rong immediately stepped forward and stopped Jia Yi and Chao Cuo's footsteps.
As soon as the two of them surrendered their hands, Liu Rong said: "The people of the imperial examination, if there is no mistake and the teacher help them, it will be difficult to succeed."
Today, I have ordered someone to prepare a thin wine, and I hope that the wrong father and the teacher can go to the palace to feast and drink it as a token of my gratitude."
Hearing this, Chao Cuodang smiled and said: "Your Highness doesn't need to worry about such an hour, and the imperial examination that the minister said to His Highness is also strange, and it is a blessing for the minister to be able to participate in it."
However, Liu Rong didn't expect that these words would come from the mouth of a person like Chao Cuo.
And Jia Yi also said, "Your Highness doesn't have to do this."
After finally reporting to his father, with this opportunity, how could Liu Rong waste it.
And Liu Rong smiled and said: "The wrong father and the teacher don't have to be like this, I have already reported it to my father, but my father approved it, and I will say it today."
Hearing that it was His Majesty's permission, Jia Yi and Chao Cuo were relieved, "Since this is the case, the minister will follow His Highness's will."
In this way, the three of them got down the imperial steps in front of the Xuanshu Palace, and went to Liu Rongzhi's bedroom together.
Speaking of which, Liu Rongzhi's bedroom had never had courtiers come before, and as soon as he entered the main hall of his bedroom, after the three of them were seated, Liu Rong immediately ordered someone to fetch the wine and food that had been prepared.
At the beginning, in order to set the words of Hu Yanqu, Liu Concubine gave Liu Rongzhi gold syrup, a large part of which was drunk by him, and in the end there were only three altars left.
However, today is a banquet for the two of them, and Liu Rong ordered Wang Sheng to bring this and drink it with Jia Yi and Chao Cuo.
Immediately, Liu Rong raised his glass and said: "The first examination of the imperial examination is to be judged by the teacher and the teacher, and then the examination of the Chinese law will also depend on the two."
After speaking, Liu Rong drank all the wine in the cup.
"Your Highness Xie", the two of them said.
However, when the three of them were drinking, it was the day of the results of the imperial examination, but the examination center in Chang'an City was even more lively than when they first registered.
However, Sima Xiangru, who lived on the outskirts of Chang'an City, took a carriage to Chang'an City early in the morning to find a strange face.
Then the two went to the place where the list was posted together.
However, there were so many people, how could the two of them not squeeze close, so they had to stand behind this large group of people and watch.
"Brother Yan, there are so many people here, it seems that they haven't made the exam list yet."
Yan Yiyi, who was standing beside Sima Xiangru, replied: "If it is not on the list, how can there be so many people?" ”。
Hearing Yan Yi's words, Sima Xiangru said again: "Because of this, there will be so many people, this initial examination of the imperial examination, only 100 people can pass, and in Chang'an City, there is not only a list here, if it is on the list, there will not be so many people."
In this way, after thinking about it, Yan Yi also agreed with Sima Xiangru's opinion.
It wasn't until the end of the day that someone came from one side with a silk book in his hand.
People who were already waiting for some impatience, when they saw that someone was finally coming, they excitedly said: "It's coming, it's coming, it's going to be on the list!" ”。
Hearing this, everyone present was extremely excited, but when Sima Xiangru also wanted to come forward to watch, Yan Yi said: "Brother Sima, don't worry, according to Brother Sima's words, but after a while, the people present will disperse, and it will be better for me to wait and watch it again."
"Haha, what Brother Yan said is very true."
Sure enough, with just a stick of incense, a large group of people who were still in front of the list dispersed in a hurry.
Some of them said as they walked: "I am so talented, how can I not pass the preliminary examination of this imperial examination..................."
After everyone dispersed, the two stepped forward to take a look, but after a while, Sima Xiangru looked at the list and said unconsciously: "Dongjun Yan is different!" ”。
And Yan Yi also said, "Shu County, Sima Xiangru."
Immediately, Yan Yi smiled and said, "Congratulations to Brother Sima!" ”。
"Congratulations to Brother Yan too."
After finishing speaking, Sima Xiangru said again: "This is just a preliminary examination, and after passing the imperial examination, it is not too late to congratulate you."
However, since the matter of the imperial examination was made public, this is the talk of the entire Chang'an people after dinner.
This is especially true after the preliminary list is released.
…………………………………………………………………………
However, at this time, the city of Chang'an was boiling because of the imperial examination, but there was a person holding the scepter of the Son of Heaven, escorted by several attendants and many horsemen, and walked to the gate of Chang'an.
Looking at the gate of Chang'an from afar, this person was a little apprehensive and said, "I'm still back."
"I'd better enter the city as soon as possible and enter the palace to report to Your Majesty."
The people beside him all said, "No! ”。
When he arrived outside the palace gate, he saw a messenger saying: "Zhao Changshi, as soon as I received your report, I came to Chang'an today, and His Majesty ordered me to wait here, and asked Changshi to enter the palace quickly, Your Majesty is in the Qilin Palace at this time."
Hearing this, this man did not say much, and immediately got off the horse, and went into the palace.
As soon as he entered the Qilin Hall and saw Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, this person immediately saluted and said, "Minister Zhao Yu greets Your Majesty!" ”。
Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, said indifferently: "How about this?" Zhao Qingke has nothing to repay me."
"Gift...... Your Majesty, the matter of the King of Huainan, this is the sin of the minister, please give your Majesty the sin", after speaking, Zhao Yu will kneel and kowtow.
