Chapter 488: Tribute Courtyard
The next day, the third day of the second month, was the day when the martial arts hall opened. Although www.biquge.info Yunxi has been annoyed recently because of who to choose to be the marking officer, he still participated in the opening ceremony.
When Jin Chun, the vice principal of the lecture martial arts hall, spoke, Yun Xi looked at the young faces below, and couldn't help but think of the familiar people when he had just established the lecture martial arts hall.
Guo Wei, Yu Hui, Geng Fu, Tong Yong, Chen Ting, and Qin Song are all the first batch of students in Jiangwutang, and they are all military talents that they initially collected in the army. It's a pity that in the battle of Mobei, Guo Wei and Yu Hui died in order to protect themselves, and although Geng Fu survived, he also lost an arm.
Yun Xi thought of the people who were disabled in the previous campaigns of the Ming Dynasty, those who he either knew or did not know. For these people, dying in battle is not a terrible thing, but if they are disabled, it will become a great drag on their families.
Yun Hee then decided: 'We must give them a way out.' β
After attending the opening ceremony, Yun Xi returned to the palace. At this time, it was already noon, and the four auxiliary officials had already gone to eat, so Yun Xi asked Xia Yuanji to send the recital approved by the four auxiliary officials over for approval, and asked what was going on today.
Xia Yuanji said: "Your Majesty, Chen Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites wants to enter the palace today, please ask Your Majesty to determine the candidates for the questioner and the marking officer." The minister informed him that His Majesty was not in the palace today, and Chen Shangshu asked the minister to inform His Majesty of this. β
Xia Yuan Ji thought that Yun Xi would immediately make a decision and order who to use as the question writer and marking officer, but Yun Xi didn't seem to hear his words, and said: "Draft the decree, promote Huang Huai to Ying Tianfu Yin." β
Xia Yuanji was puzzled and drafted the holy decree on the side, and after Yun Xi saw the stamped seal, he sent it to the General Affairs Department.
After that, Yun Xi thought for a while and didn't know what was going on, before he said, "You just said that Chen Di wants to know who the marker and the examiner will be, right?" β
Yun Xi thought for a while and said, "Xie Jin has recently taken over as the winter assistant official, and there is also the matter of compiling the "Yuan History", so I am afraid that I don't have time. β
"The questioner will use Chen Di, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Dong Lun, the waiter, to make a scripture and a righteous question."
"Marking officer," Yun Xi said here, looking up at Xia Yuanji and smiling, "Do you have the heart to be a marking officer?" β
"The minister is the examiner?" Xia Yuanji was a little incredulous for a while, and wanted to excuse himself, but remembering that Yun Xi was more direct to the people close to him, most of them were not ridiculing but really asking him if he was willing to be a file examiner, so he swallowed back the words that he was about to blurt out, bowed down and said, "The minister wants to go." β
How could he not be willing, this is the examiner of the imperial examination, although it is impossible to compare with the previous examiner and deputy examiner, but as the person who marks the papers, he can be regarded as half a teacher.
Of course, Yun Xi understood his thoughts, smiled, and said, "Since this is the case, I will learn from you, Su Youγ...... Ten people are the judges of the policy papers. β
"Lu Shiyuan of Hanlin Academyγ...... Ten people are the examiners of the scriptures. β
"All of the above, after getting the news, they will move to the Gongyuan as soon as they get the news, and there will be no delay."
Yun Xi turned his head to Xia Yuanji and said, "You and Su Youxue don't have to, but you also move to the imperial city." β
Xia Yuanji bowed down and said, "The minister's decree." After a pause, he said, "Your Majesty, this policy topic? β
"I'll make the decision myself." Yun Xi said.
Then Yun Xi didn't know what to think of, and said, "You called Li Bo." β
Natsuhara Yoshishi was ordered to retreat.
He first called the palace guards according to the usual practice, found twenty palace guards, and asked them to each notify a question writer or marker, and then said to Li Bo: "Li guard, Your Majesty wants to see you." β
When Li Bo followed Xia Yuanji to the palace where Yun Xi was, Yun Xi was commenting on the recital, and Li Bo and Xia Yuan Ji were standing aside and waiting.
The two of them waited for a while, Yun Xi finished answering the notes at hand, looked up at the leaks, and said to Xia Yuanji: "These folds will be sent to the General Administration Department for distribution." Tell the fourth auxiliary officer again that I have some things in the afternoon and am not in the Qianqing Palace. β
Xia Yuanji took the order to step forward and take the fold, and turned to go to the General Administration. Just before he left the palace, he heard Yun Xi say to Li Bo, "I will go to the Gongyuan in the afternoon......
Yun Xi didn't wait for Xia Yuanji to go out, and said to Li Bo: "In the afternoon, I will go to the Gongyuan to see what the place where the exams are held." "He hasn't been to the Tribute House yet.
Li Bo replied, "Yes, Your Majesty." Then he was about to go down to prepare, when he saw that Yun Xi had already stood up and instructed Huang Lu to prepare civilian clothes for him to leave the palace, and said, "Your Majesty, are you going to leave the palace and go to the tribute courtyard now?" Of course, he could see that Yun Xi hadn't taken a lunch break yet, so he asked.
Yun Xi said: "It's going to be time soon. Let's go now. β
Now that Yun Xi had decided, Li Bo stopped talking and hurriedly went to prepare. Yun Xi took a piece of rice paper on which he wrote and walked out.
After a while, a carriage marked with the royal emblem but not particularly luxurious drove out of Xihua Gate, flanked by dozens of guards.
Yun Xi doesn't like to be too pompous, but if it is too brief, his life safety is problematic, so if he doesn't need to walk on the street when he leaves the palace, he usually pretends to be a child of a certain clan, so that he can use the guards plainly, and the pomp is not too big.
The carriage arrived at the Gongyuan in a short time. Yun Xi looked over from the car, and at this time, there were not many people at the gate of the Gongyuan who wanted to participate in the examination, but there were often errand officers patrolling around the wall of the Gongyuan.
Yun Xi asked Li Bo, and Li Bo said, "Your Majesty, this is to prevent someone from trying to bury the book in the Gongyuan in advance to guard against cheating." β
"If there is no snow or rain a few days before the examination, the examiner will also patrol around the Gongyuan before the examination begins to see if there is any new soil."
Yun Xi nodded and motioned for Li Bo to go and open the door of the Gongyuan.
"When! While! While! Li Bo walked to the gate of the Tribute Courtyard and kept knocking.
With a "squeak", the door was opened, and the officer who opened the door saw a stranger dressed in a guard's uniform, and said with some surprise: "Who are you?" What's the matter with Lai Gongin? β
Li Bo said: "I am the guard of the Wu Palace, and Your Majesty has come to inspect the Gongyuan with His Royal Highness the King of Wu. β
The messenger respectfully but unyieldingly asked, "Is there an edict from His Majesty?" β
At this time, without His Majesty's order, not to mention the prince, even the emperor could not let him in.
Of course, Li Bo has an edict, and of course Yun Xi will not miss this point, just now it was just for Li Bo to test the errand officer. Now that the result had been tried, Li Bo took out an edict with a jade seal mark commonly used by Yun Xi and handed it to the officer.
The officer looked at it carefully before letting the door open for them to enter.
Yun Xi walked into the Tribute Courtyard and first looked at the Mingyuan Building not far from the entrance of the Tribute Courtyard.
Mingyuan Building is a two-story building that is a two-story building where the official invigilates the whole venue when the general examination and the township examination are held. In the entire Gongyuan, only Mingyuan Building is the second floor, which is the commanding height of the entire Gongyuan, so it is the most suitable place for invigilation.
Yun Xi was about to walk in, when suddenly a group of people walked over from the side. Yun Xi looked sideways and saw that the person who took the lead was none other than Liao Sheng, the promotion officer appointed by Yun Xi this time, the Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple.
Liao Sheng walked over, and before he could see who the person in front of him was, he hurriedly said, "The minister has seen His Royal Highness King Wu." Your Highness ......"
When he said this, he raised his head, and suddenly saw that the person in front of him was the current emperor, and he was immediately stuck, and his face showed a panicked look; Although it was still cold, fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
8Immediately he knelt down and said, "Your Majesty has seen you! β
When the people behind him heard this, they knelt down in surprise or fear and said: "The grass people have seen Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live!" β
Yun Xi said, "Get up." Then he said, "Don't reveal my identity." β
The crowd was a little confused about their promises.
Then Yun Xi asked Liao Sheng to lead the way and patrol the Gongyuan.
First looked at Mingyuan Building, and then followed the path, one aisle after another.
When Yunxi walked to the first aisle, he smelled a stench coming from not far away, and the closer he walked, the bigger the stench.
The messenger on the side hurriedly said: "Emperor, Emperor, that side is, yes,"
In addition, the junior official who is usually in charge of managing the tribute court saw him stumbling and said to Yun Xi: "Your Majesty, it is a stinky horn over there, I am afraid that it will stain Your Majesty's nose, Your Majesty should take a detour." β
"What's the stinking horn?" Yoon-hee asked.
"Your Majesty, the stinky number is a convenient place for candidates who come to the exam." The man explained.
Yun Xi pondered what he meant and said, "That means, there are no toilets here?" β
The man was stunned for a moment before he realized that the 'toilet' referred to the thatched house, and said: "Your Majesty, there is no toilet in this tribute courtyard, only a smelly number. β
Yun Xi immediately said: "How can this work? How can there be no toilet? β
He also instructed: "Immediately find someone to dig a toilet in the Gongyuan for the convenience of the candidates." β
Everyone didn't expect that the first thing the emperor said when he came to the Gongyuan was the toilet, and there was some slander in his heart, but he didn't dare to disobey Yun Xi's words and agreed.
Yun Xi didn't dare to walk into the stinky number, just passing by.
After that, Yunxi didn't have any problems, just looked at the number room calmly.
Yun Xi turned around the place and was about to leave, when suddenly the door was opened, and a person walked in. Yun Xi looked at it fixedly, and it turned out to be Dong Lun, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites. The graders and questioners have been notified and have rushed over one after another.
Dong Lun came in and saw Yun Xi here, and hurriedly knelt down and saluted. Yoon-hee smiled and told him to stand up.
After that, Yun Xi suddenly remembered something, took out a piece of rice paper and said to Dong Lun: "I have discussed with the royal family these days, and I also have a few scripture questions, you can take them and take a look, if they are combined, they will be used as test questions." β
Yun Xi's questions are not bad in terms of Yun Xi's shallow level of scripture and righteousness, so he sent them as part of the exam questions.
Dong Lun bowed down and took it.
Yun Xi didn't have anything to do and left the Gongyuan.
