Do I have flowers on my face? ”

Kou Jihu asked suspiciously.

"Ahem......"

Zhao Zhen had already put down the test paper in his hand, and when he heard Kou Ji's words, he coughed slightly dryly and said, "I have never seen the fourth brother bow his head to people......

When Lu Yijian and the others heard Zhao Zhen's words, they all nodded in unison.

Who is Koji?

A person who is confident in everything.

The one who will repay the eye.

He rarely asks for help, and he can always rely on his own strength to turn around some situations that others find impossible.

Da Song can have today, he can be said to have contributed a lot.

The prosperity of the Great Song Dynasty and the gradual strengthening of the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty were all the results brought by Kou Ji.

He has always been ruthless in his treatment of his enemies, and almost all those who offend him will suffer his revenge.

is such a person, and now he actually bows his head to others, or to an official with a lower status than him.

Kou Ji heard Zhao Zhen's words, and said indifferently: "Is this considered a bow?" It's not a bow. As long as someone says something right, as long as someone says something that is good for Da Song, I will accept it with an open mind.

We can't think we're doing anything just because we're in a high position.

When manpower is poor, the strength of one person can never compete with the strength of a group of people.

Working together is the foundation for the Great Song Dynasty to become stronger.

If you feel that you are in a high position, you feel that everything you are doing is right, and sooner or later something will happen. ”

Zhao Zhen heard Kou Ji's words and nodded thoughtfully.

He knows this all too well.

No one in the Great Song Dynasty had a higher status than him, and no one in the four seas had a higher status than him.

But he never thought of himself as a god.

When it is time to humbly admonish, he will certainly humbly admonish.

Lu Yijian and the others heard Kou Ji's words and nodded in agreement.

"Let's continue grading......"

Zhao Zhen moved his wrist and commanded.

Lu Yijian and the others continued to lie on the table to read the papers.

After a rigorous review by several people, all the test papers were completed.

According to the number of circles, Chen Yaozuo arranged the test papers in order and presented them to Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen changed the position of five of the test papers that ranked second.

Lu Yijian and the others looked at it, and their eyes widened.

Lu Yijian said almost without hesitation: "Official, this matter is not appropriate, right?" ”

Zhao Zhen mobilized the test papers of Ouyang Xiu, Han Qi, Wen Yanbo and others.

Lu Yijian and the others all knew that Ouyang Xiu and the others were from Yu Koufu.

Kou Ji had previously started a debate with Chen Yaozuo on the spot for the test papers of Ouyang Xiu and others.

Now that Zhao Zhen has transferred the test papers of Ouyang Xiu and others to the front, Lu Yijian and others feel that Zhao Zhen is taking care of Kou Ji by doing this.

In order to take care of Kou Ji, Zhao Zhen was selfish in the Talent Ceremony, and Lu Yijian and others naturally felt that it was inappropriate.

Zhao Zhen calmly stared at Lu Yijian and the others: "I know what you are thinking, and you must feel in your hearts that I am taking care of the fourth brother's face by putting the test papers of Ouyang Xiu and the others in front."

Not really.

I have a deep friendship with my fourth brother, but it's only a personal relationship.

I don't confuse politics with personal relationships, and the fourth brother doesn't confuse politics with personal relationships.

The reason why I put Ouyang Xiu and the others in front was because they should be put in front.

At the beginning of my northern expedition to Western Xia, there was a shortage of people in Hexi to govern.

I intend to send the scholars of the country and the Taixue to Hexi.

But none of the Guozijian and the scholars of Taixue were willing to go.

They feel that they are not out of office, they don't take my money, and there is no need to worry about me.

They felt that going to Hexi to do things would delay their schoolwork.

Just when I had a headache about this matter, Ouyang Xiu and the others put down their homework and took the initiative to ask Ying to govern Hexi.

Ouyang Xiu and others are all from the Wenchang Academy.

I discussed it with Kou Gong, the head of the Wenchang Academy, and I had the heart to send them a copy of the money.

But they didn't take a penny.

When they were in Hexi, they helped Li Gong to implement the policy of enriching the people.

As a result, Hexi has less than 300,000 acres of loess and more than 300,000 acres of forest land.

When they returned to Beijing, Li Gong sent a letter to me, telling me that the yellow earth, which used to be barren, had now become a large woodland, and the trees had not yet grown, but they had borne fruit, which was very sweet.

Li Gong has already built several wine workshops next to the woodland, and wants to use those fruits to make wine, and I believe that soon, you will be able to drink the fruit wine of Hexi.

They have created 300,000 acres of forest land, which can help support at least 50,000 people.

These more than 50,000 people not only no longer have to worry about food and clothing, but also produce fruit and wine, but also help the imperial court bring a large amount of taxes.

A large amount of taxes can help the court support many people.

They have meritorious service to the court, and I have to reward them.

They are missing a circle and cannot enter the first class, so I will use their credit to change a circle for them.

Many of you Aiqing are from the imperial examination, and you should know what the ranking of the imperial examination means.

I re-ranked them with one more lap in hand.

Do you have any objections? ”

Zhao Zhen said this, and Lu Yijian and the others naturally had no way to object.

People are ranked for merit, not for no reason.

What do Lu Yijian and the others have to worry about?

Besides, changing the ranking is Zhao Zhen's unique privilege, even if he points a volume with only one circle as the first name, Lu Yijian and others can only persuade him, but he can't make a decision for Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhenken explained it to them in detail, and he was already very benevolent.

Lu Yijian and the others shook their heads in unison.

Seeing this, Zhao Zhen instructed Chen Lin: "Then copy the rankings in turn, and post the list tomorrow." ”

"......"

Chen Lin agreed.

The examination papers have been reviewed, and the rankings have been decided.

Kou Ji and the others dispersed.

Following.

It is the day that everyone in Bianjing City is most looking forward to.

Donghua Gate roll call, royal street boasting, followed by Qionglin banquet.

Early in the morning, Kou Ji arrived in front of Donghua Gate.

The scholars who participated in the temple examination yesterday were waiting in front of the Donghua Gate early.

The people who joined in the excitement also rushed to the front of Donghua Gate.

When Kou Ji arrived, they all saluted Kou Ji.

Kou Ji returned the salute.

Subsequently, under the attention of everyone, Kou Ji bowed to the palace and said loudly: "The auspicious time has come, and the minister Kou Ji is requested to announce the ......."

One by one, the eunuchs transmitted Kou Ji's words to the Vertical Arch Hall.

Zhao Zhen, who was sitting on the vertical arch hall, shouted.

"Xuan!"

The announcement officially began.

"First place, Xiangzhou Anyang Han Qi!"

“……”

"First place, Xiangzhou Anyang Han Qi!"

“……”

The Jinjia soldiers sang again and again, and finally passed Chen Linxuan's list out of the palace.

When Zhao Zhen interviewed Han Qi, Han Qi should have left a good impression on Zhao Zhen, so Zhao Zhen finally put the champion position on Han Qi's head.

Han Qi heard his name, tidied up his clothes, walked in front of Kou Ji, and saluted Kou Ji.

Kou Ji returned the salute, and Han Qi stood behind Kou Ji.

followed by Ouyang Xiu, Tanhua Wen Yanbo and others.

Bao Zheng and Su Xun are too young, have they ever gone out to practice, and the articles they made during the palace examination, although they have something to say, they are not as relevant as Han Qi and others in line with the reality of the Great Song Dynasty, so the two of them did not enter the first class, but only hung up a list in the second class.

But even then, they were happy enough.

Seeing that one by one, the new Kejin scholars were standing behind Kou Ji, and most of them were from Kou Mansion.

Someone muttered in a sour whisper.

"Only the Koumen Jinshi ......"

This time, Enke admitted 300 Jinshi, the first and second first, all of whom were from Koufu, and the third class was almost a foil.

It is not an exaggeration to call them Koumen Jinshi.

Koji didn't care about this, and didn't pay attention to it.

After he finished announcing the announcement, he took the new branch jinshi and entered the temple to face the saint.

Kou Ji took the new branch jinshi into the vertical arch hall, and after the new branch jinshi went through the second round of interviews, Zhao Zhen gave them scarlet clothes, vermilion flowers and other things, and rewarded each of them with 200,000 yuan (200,000 copper coins).

The champion, Bangyan, and Tanhua changed into crimson official uniforms under the service of Gong E, with a big red flower on their chests, and a hat with palace flowers on their heads.

The most glorious thing for a Jinshi is at this moment.

Under the attention of thousands of people in Bianjing, he showed his glory.

Sought after by 10,000 people, the swagger is in the limelight.

What's more, when they are boasting about their officials on the street, almost all the attention of women in Bianjing City will be on them.

Some of the bold ones will also leave all kinds of love tokens to them when they are boasting about their officials on the street.

For example, purses, vermilion flowers, jade pendants, hydrangeas and other things.

At such a time, no one cares about any face-saving issues, and many people regard this matter as a kind of elegant matter.

Just when Han Qi and the others were boasting about the officials on the royal street, Kou Ji and Zhao Zhen were plotting in a side hall in the palace.

Zhao Zhen sat in the middle of the side hall and said with a little emotion: "Those Jinshi, now should be the time to be complacent, right?" ”

Kou Ji sat on the side, nodding slowly.

Zhao Zhen sighed and said: "They don't know at all that in the next three or five years, they will all disappear in front of people's eyes and stay in the library to flip through the books." ”

Kou Ji said frankly: "This matter can be regarded as a meritorious matter, just like repairing history." After the matter is completed, the official family will promote them as appropriate. ”

Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "I know the number of those books. With only 300 of them, it will take decades to finish those books. ”

The ancients were meticulous in their work, especially in writing books, which could be meticulous to the point of outrageousness.

The collision of the two texts must have many differences, and if you want to perfectly translate the content of those books, you must work hard.

It takes time to do the hard work.

Kou Ji heard Zhao Zhen's words and said with a smile: "They are only the translators of some of the books, not all of them. The knowledge in those books is very much, very varied, very extensive.

The sudden inflow into my Great Song Dynasty will inevitably cause a huge impact.

So the minister planned to divide those books into categories.

Translations of one category and one of those of others.

They only need to translate some of them, and when they are done, they will teach the big food literature to the next group.

And so on, even if it has more books, we can translate it. ”

Zhao Zhen was slightly stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "The old wisdom of the foolish man to move mountains? ”

Kou Ji smiled and nodded.

There is no end to the ocean of knowledge, but there are books that record knowledge, and as long as it takes some time, as many books can be translated.

Zhao Zhen thought for a moment and asked, "What kind of books does the fourth brother plan to start translating?" ”

Kou Ji smiled: "Medical book! ”

Zhao Zhen looked at Kou Ji in amazement, "Medical book? ”

Kou Ji nodded slowly and said, "I originally thought of starting with geography books, but geography books are mixed with a lot of agricultural books. Books on agriculture, now translated, do not play a big role.

Eight of the people of the Great Song Dynasty are illiterate.

Books on agriculture are mainly used by the common people.

The people are illiterate, and the agricultural books we have translated cannot be understood by the people.

Readers disdain to look at those things.

So the translation came out, and it didn't have much effect on my Great Song.

Medical books are different, and when medical books are translated, we can immediately find doctors to verify some of these medical skills.

Once it is useful, it can be quickly spread through the Huimin Pharmacy held by the imperial court.

What's more, most of the first-class and second-class jinshi this time are people from the Wenchang Academy.

The reputation of the Wenchang Academy will then resound all over the world.

There is a medical department in the Wenchang School.

If we pass on those medical skills through the mouth of the doctor of the Wenchang Academy, we will definitely be recognized by the people of the world quickly. ”

Zhao Zhen listened to Kou Ji's words, and said in a deep voice: "Most of the doctors in the Wenchang Academy are medical experts. They have an inherent family education, and if the medical skills of Dashi are not recognized by them, they will definitely not agree to spread the medical skills of Dashi. ”

Kou Ji said lightly: "Whether the medical skills are useful or not, you will know if you try it." As long as we find enough patients and try it with the medicine of big food, as long as it is useful, they will naturally believe it.

Once the medical skills are useful, they can spread them as if they had developed them themselves. ”

Zhao Zhen stared in astonishment.

Kou Ji's move is tantamount to giving those doctors fame.

As long as you are a doctor, as long as you can study medical skills that others don't know, you may be famous all over the world.

What Kou Ji gave them was not a medical skill, but a medical skill that gathered the wisdom of many great food doctors.

The number of medical skills is beyond their imagination.

If those doctors spread these medical skills as their own research, it is estimated that they will all be enshrined as medical saints.

After all, it is strange that dozens of generations, even hundreds of generations, countless people, and hundreds of thousands of years of research results have been passed on by a few people as their own research results.

Zhao Zhen said with a strange expression: "Wouldn't this move be a little shameless?" What if the big cannibals come to the door? ”

Kou Ji said nonchalantly: "Those big cannibals won't come to the door, they don't care about these at all, they only care about their religion." This move is not shameless, although those doctors did not study these medical skills, but they spread these medical skills, and countless people lived, which can be regarded as a merit. ”

"What if?"

Zhao Zhen asked persistently.

He is a rich emperor from all over the world, and he always feels a little uncomfortable about plagiarism behind his back, for fear that someone will come to the door and he will lose face.

Kou Ji spread his hands and said: "Whoever finds the door, he will cut him down, and there will be no case." ”

The corners of Zhao Zhen's mouth twitched, feeling that Kou Ji's move was a bit shameless and excessive.

However, Kou Ji did this in order to allow those medical skills to spread unhindered in the Great Song Dynasty, and in the final analysis, it was also for the good of the Great Song Dynasty.

As for the big cannibal who came to the door, if he was cut down by them, would it be unkind and righteous, Zhao Zhen didn't think about it at all.

You are not my people, whether you are dead or alive, what does it have to do with me?

Zhao Zhen comforted himself in his heart, tried his best to regard this shameful thing as a glorious thing, and then asked Kou Jidao: "Then what official position should I give them, is it not appropriate for Dali Temple to comment?" ”

Xinke Jinshi was awarded the Dali Temple Judge, as long as it was so that they could learn how to judge cases.

After all, when the new science and technology jinshi is electing officials, most of them will be assigned to various places to serve as magistrates, judges, and magistrates.

There are countless criminal and civil cases that they need to be exposed to.

If they do not know how to adjudicate cases, they will create many unjust, false and wrongful cases.

Therefore, after they are admitted to the Jinshi, they will be awarded the Dali Temple Appraisal and learn how to judge the case for a period of time.

It's just that the Jinshi selected by this branch is used to translate books, so it is obviously inappropriate to award the Dali Temple Commentary.

Kou Ji thought for a moment, "How about the right to send the Zhilong Pavilion?" ”

When Zhao Zhen heard this, he was stunned again and again.

"Sent by right?"

Ryutukaku is a place where the royal family's classics, paintings, treasures, and the list of the Zongshoji clan are stored.

There weren't many officials inside.

Longtuge University Scholars are generally awarded to important ministers.

The ones who really do things are the Longtu Pavilion Straight Bachelor, Revision, and Straight Pavilion.

The Straight Dragon Pavilion is the Straight Pavilion, and its status is second only to the revision.

But even so, the Naokei is not something that the new Kejinshi can do.

So Kou Ji added a right and sent in front.

In the official system of the Great Song Dynasty, the main position is the main position, and some people want to do the main job, but if they can't afford the name of the main position, they will add a power word.

For example, the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture.

The prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture, since the beginning of the Song Dynasty, has always been concurrently served by the crown prince.

The officials who really know Kaifeng Mansion are naturally inferior to the crown prince, so when they serve as Kaifeng Mansion, they will add a power word.

It means to be one level lower than the main job.

If there is another dispatch after the power, it means that it is two inferior.

That is to say, the right to send the Straight Dragon Pavilion is two levels lower than the real Straight Dragon Pavilion.

If you put it on the new science and technology jinshi, it is just right.

Zhao Zhen thought for a while, and said, "Then the first class is awarded to the Zhilong Pavilion, the second class is awarded to the right to the Zhilong Pavilion, and the third class is granted the right to send the Zhilong Pavilion?" ”

One class and two first, the treatment is different after all.

Zhao Zhen was so appointed, and Kou Ji could understand.

Kou Ji nodded slowly.

Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "I will claim that they are cultivating history, and I will allocate a place in the Ruisheng Garden for them to repair books. If you want to fix a book, you naturally need to find a secluded place. ”

Zhao Zhen arranged it this way in order not to attract attention.

Koji had nothing to object to, so he nodded decisively.

Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "Everything has been discussed, then our monarchs and ministers are ready to prepare, go to Jinmingchi to meet our new science and technology scholars, and see if there is anything different after they praise the officials on the street?" ”

Kou Ji agreed.

The two of them made some preparations, drove out of the palace, and rushed all the way to Jinmingchi in the west of Bianjing City.

After the Upper and Lower Tiger Wing Army was transferred out of Bianjing City, Jin Mingchi seemed a little deserted.

Jinming Pond has gradually become one of the emperor's gardens from a military powerhouse.

The huge Jin Ming Pond is now handed over to the eunuchs and palace ladies to take care of.

After Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji arrived, the eunuchs and palace ladies in Jinmingchi had already arrived at the gate of Jinmingchi and greeted Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen got off the dragon and bowed one by one.

Zhao Zhen nodded slightly, ordered the imperial guards to take over the defense of Jinmingchi, and then took Kou Ji into Jinmingchi.

Without the Jin Mingchi of the upper and lower Tiger Wing Army drills, there is less hustle and bustle and more tranquility.

Kou Ji and Zhao Zhen stepped on the covered bridge, enjoying the scenery of Jinming Pond along the way.

Looking at the turquoise patch, looking at the sparkling waves, and looking at the willows, I felt a little refreshed.

Zhao Zhen crossed the covered bridge, stood in front of the first palace in Jinming Pond, looked at the blue pool water, and sighed: "In the future, I should often go to Jinming Pond to walk, otherwise this scenery will be wasted." ”

While Zhao Zhen was speaking, a huge dragon boat slowly appeared on the surface of the pool.

After Zhao Zhen saw the dragon boat, his eyes were happy, "Why don't you have a banquet today, how about setting it up on the dragon boat?" ”

Without waiting for Kou Ji to answer, Zhao Zhen asked Chen Lin with great interest, "Chen Lin, how many people can my dragon boat hold?" Can you tolerate me and those Jinshi? ”

Chen Lin bowed and said with a smile: "Go back to the official's house, you can tolerate it." ”

Zhao Zhen laughed and said, "Okay! Command that all the things for the feast be brought on board, and that I will feast on the ship tonight. ”

"......"

Chen Lin agreed, turned around and commanded the eunuch behind him.

The eunuch behind him left the place silently.

Not long after, the eunuchs and palace ladies in Jinmingchi all moved, and began to move things to the ship and rearrange the place for drinking and feasting.

Night fell quietly when the eunuchs and palace ladies were busy.

Wait until the sun has completely set over the mountain.

Everything on the dragon boat has been laid out.

The new scholars also finished the street and arrived at Jinmingchi.

The new science and technology jinshi have their own identity credentials.

After they arrived at Jinmingchi, they showed their identity credentials, and a eunuch would lead them to the place where they were drinking.

Under the guidance of the eunuchs, the new branch jinshi arrived at a small ferry in Jinming Pond.

They looked at the brightly lit dragon boat in front of them, and lost their minds slightly.

For many of them, the dragon ship in front of them was definitely the largest ship they had ever seen in their lives.

In fact, this dragon boat is indeed the largest ship in the Great Song Dynasty at present.

It is not only large, but also very luxurious, and the materials used are also of the highest quality.

From afar, it looks like a palace.

In fact, it was originally remodeled from a palace.

The new scholars, led by the eunuchs, boarded the largest ship they had ever seen.
