The people who can be on the list in the examination are all people with real talent and learning, even if there is fraud in the examination and is not discovered, it will definitely be in the imperial examination, and no one dares to cheat in front of Zhao Junsheng.

Zhao Junsheng's questions were based on multiple-choice questions, fill-in-the-blank questions, calculation questions, and so on, and finally there was a strategy theory, and the purpose of this was mainly to rank the one hundred and eight people who made the list in the examination.

There was plenty of time for the imperial exam, and Zhao Junsheng gave a whole morning, two hours, and the candidates had enough time to finish writing the strategy.

During the whole process, Zhao Junsheng didn't say a word, kneeling behind the imperial case and closing his eyes to recuperate, but this kneeling posture is really not very refreshing, especially when the court meeting, sometimes the court meeting is open all day, and if he sits down in one day, even if his whole body is strong in qi and blood, he can't stand the soreness in his legs and feet.

Seeing that the candidates below were still rustling and writing strategies, Zhao Junsheng thought about making the general supervisor build a throne as soon as possible, and it was not a long-term solution to kneel and sit all day to deal with the recital, and the time was unbearable.

A morning passed, and the imperial examination ended, and Li Yuande, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, personally put away the test papers of all the candidates and pasted seals, and the examiners who had been waiting for a long time to mark the papers.

Zhao Junsheng got up to run the internal force, accelerated the flow of qi and blood, and said to the candidates after making the muscles and bones comfortable: "Zhu studied and took the exam for a morning, go to the side hall for dinner first, after the meal, there will be a special eunuch to take you and others to visit the palace, after a while, the results will come out, and someone will bring you over at that time, go!" ”

"Students are waiting to leave!"

The candidates had a good meal in the side hall, but there was no wine, and after eating, a eunuch came to take them around the palace.

Many of these candidates are also the children of family lords who have seen the world, but they have never seen such a majestic and majestic palace complex.

Before the time, Li Yuande took the ranking results and exam papers to report to Zhao Junsheng: "King, the results are out!" ”

Zhao Junsheng first looked at the ranking list, and the top three were called Shen Hui, Cen Jian, and Wang Kai.

"Let's talk about the origins of Shen Hui, Cen Jian and Wang Kai!"

Li Yuande said: "Shen Hui and Cen Jian are both from poor families, and Wang Kai is from the Wang family in Pingshou County, Beihai!" All the candidates on the list, the ministers have asked people to check their origins, almost forty percent of them are from poor families, and the rest are from the scholar clan, and among the children of these scholars, the side branches account for the majority, and there are only a few descendants! ”

Zhao Junsheng was stunned: "Yo, look, look, Lone said that the Hanmen is not without talents, and the scholars are not the only ones who produce talents, what does this mean?" It shows that everyone needs a fair and just environment, and what the imperial court wants to do is to give them such a fair environment! Come on, ask someone to bring all the candidates and students over! ”

Soon, one hundred and eight candidates and students who made the list were taken back to the Taiji Hall by the eunuchs.

"Meet the King!" All the candidates and students saluted Zhao Junsheng together.

Zhao Junsheng raised his hand and said to all the students and candidates: "All candidates and students are exempt!" The results of this imperial examination have come out, first of all, I explain here that as any of the one hundred and eight people on the list of the examination, each of you has the opportunity to be awarded an official position, but because of the limited number of vacancies in the official position, only the top thirty-six can be awarded the official position of chief official, and the other seventy-two people will be awarded the official position of adjutant, after you go back, you will go to the official department to report within three days, and the official department will interview each of you, and then you will be appointed, if you do not do it within three days, you will automatically give up the opportunity to be an official, Maybe some people don't want to be an adjutant and want to wait three years to take the exam again, of course, it's okay. Because of the time, the names of the top three students will be announced! The rest of the orders will be announced to you by Li Yuande, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites! ”

"First of all, the third place to be announced is the lonely, the third name of the lone imperial examination is Tanhua, and the third place in the imperial examination of this scientific examination is Wang Kai of Pingshou County, Beihai! Where is Wang Kai? ”

Wang Kai, who was named, walked out and bowed to Zhao Junsheng: "The student is here!" ”

"This king appoints you as the commander of Boping County!"

Hiss - all the candidates secretly gasped when they heard this appointment, they were appointed as a county magistrate at the beginning, and there was not even a transition, it seems that the imperial court has high hopes for the students who are on the list of their scientific examinations this year!

Wang Kai suppressed the excitement in his heart and saluted: "Thank you for the grace of the king, the students will do their best and die!" ”

Zhao Junsheng said again: "The second name is Bangyan, and the role model of this year's scientific examination is Cen Jian, a student from Fangcheng County, Fanyang County!" Where is Cen Jian? ”

No one expected that the second place on the list turned out to be a poor student, even Cen Jian himself didn't expect it, until someone coughed twice to remind him, he came back to his senses and walked out of the ranks of students to the middle of the hall to salute Zhao Junsheng: "The student is here!" ”

"Alone, you are the commander of Yongnu County!"

The candidates and students were even more shocked this time, Yongnu County is the county governance of Yuyang County, and it is also a big county, and the status of the county governance is much higher than that of the general county order.

Cen Jian saluted and said, "Thank you, the king, for your kindness!" ”

Zhao Junsheng continued: "The first name of the Lone Imperial Examination is the champion, and the first place in the first scientific examination of the Qianguo Imperial Examination is Shen Hui, a student from Anling County, Bohai Navy!" Where is Shen Hui? ”

It's a cold door again, why are the first and second places both cold? The other scholars were very puzzled, could it be that the talents of these two people were really higher than them?

Shen Hui had a calm temperament, and he walked out with a face like a pool of water and saluted: "The student is here!" ”

"Alone, you are repairing for the Hanlin Academy!"

The time of the Qianguo State is not long, and many people are not clear about the functions of some yamen in the imperial court, but some students have done some research, and many of these candidates and students know what this Hanlin Academy is for, and they are envious for a while.

This official position seems to be inconspicuous, but to be able to follow the king, as the so-called near the water is the first to get the moon, as long as you perform well and win the trust and value of the king, you will definitely have many more opportunities for promotion than others.

"Thank you, Lord Ron!" Shen Hui shouted and knelt down.

"Flat!" Zhao Junsheng raised his hand and continued: "In order to show the importance of the imperial court to the scientific examination and the top three, Lone has ordered people to prepare high-headed horses, ribbon saffron and black yarn crown clothes, and give the champion, Bangyan, and Tanhua to ride horses and wear saffron from outside the palace gate to start riding horses and parade the streets, walking all over the city, and accepting the blessings of the people!" ”

Shen Hui, Cen Jian and Wang Kai bowed down together: "Thank you for the grace of the king!" ”

Zhao Junsheng was about to announce that everyone had dispersed, and a candidate student stood up and said: "The student has questions about the high situation in Bohai, please ask the king to solve your doubts!" ”

The faces of the ministers and officials in the main hall have changed, shouldn't there be any trouble at this time? All of them secretly prayed in their hearts that this high situation would not be dead.

Zhao Junsheng was stunned for a moment, raised his hand and said, "Do you have any questions?" ”

Gao said: "The purpose of the king's scientific examination is to select the world's talents, but from the perspective of the examination questions, the imperial court is not to select talents, but to select officials!" ”

"Bold! High, who gave you permission to talk nonsense above the great hall? Li Yuande, as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, immediately stood up and reprimanded loudly.

Zhao Junsheng looked calm and waved his hand: "Listen to your opinions, these exam questions are a little inappropriate?" ”

I only heard Gao Guan say: "For example, the arithmetic problem that sweeps the house, the students really don't understand why this kind of test question is made, what can it do?" Students think that the exam questions should be poems and songs, subsets of scriptures and history, articles and political theories, and students are here to sweep the world for the king, not to sweep the house! ”

When Zhao Junsheng heard this, his face turned cold: "If you don't sweep a house, why sweep the world?" It's unreasonable, huh! After saying that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

Zhao Junsheng would not worry about a candidate, but when he left, his face changed but he was looked at by the ministers, and all the ministers looked at Gao Guo with pity in their eyes, this guy really ate the bear's heart and leopard gall, and he was looking for the king's stubble in the hall before he was appointed as an official, is it born bold, or is it the power of whom?

Two days later, the Ministry of Officials submitted the appointment of the candidates on the list of this year's scientific examination to Zhao Junsheng for approval.

Zhao Junsheng picked up the official department and looked at it, and when he saw Gao Guan's name, he paused, this Gao Guan was appointed by the Ministry of Officials as the head of a small border county in Xuzhou, and then looked at Gao Guan's ranking in the imperial examination, ninety-eight.

This is not Lonely's deliberate manipulation of you, you are too poor and arrogant and ignorant, Zhao Junsheng picked up the Zhu pen and agreed, closed the chapter or asked the eunuch next to him: "Do you know what the high situation of the confrontation with Lone was the day before yesterday?" ”

When the eunuch heard this, he hurriedly replied: "As far as the slave maid knows, Gao Yun should be of the same clan as Gao Guo in the middle book!" ”

Zhao Junsheng shook his head, and said in his heart that Gao Yun was also calm, and he didn't stand up to speak for Gao Yun that day.

The champions, Bangyan, and Tanhua rode tall horses in the streets of Qianjing City in a whole circle of the streets and streets of Qianjing City were talked about by the people for several days, and the officials and the people saw that the imperial court attached so much importance to the scientific examination, and that the candidates and students on the list attached so much importance to it, and they all felt the importance of reading.

The key is that the champion and the list are both from poor backgrounds, which gives the subjects of the world an obvious signal that no matter where they come from, they only learn from talents!

This has further stimulated the enthusiasm of the people to send their children to school, even if the family was poor in the past, people who did not have such thoughts now see this kind of scene and decide that they can no longer suffer their children.

A few days later, the enthusiasm of the people weakened, and the students who were awarded official positions went to their posts one by one with official certificates and edicts, and Shen Hui, the champion of the Hanlin Academy, had the opportunity to be Zhao Junsheng's secretary every five days and draft edicts and edicts for him.

Shen Hui's shorthand skills are very good, he was not used to it at first, but after a few experiences with Zhao Junsheng, he figured out the experience of shorthand Zhao Junsheng's words.

His handwriting is very beautiful, and the words written with a brush are neater and more beautiful than those typed by printers in later generations, which is one of the reasons why Zhao Junsheng likes to take him with him.

"King, Commander Lu has something important to report!" The eunuch walked into the main hall and reported to Zhao Junsheng.

Zhao Junsheng asked Lu Xuanbo to come in, and Lu Xuanbo came in to take a look, and the person in charge of copywriting inside was a fresh face, a little hesitant.

Shen Hui immediately understood that this was a confidential matter to report, and immediately saluted and said, "The minister retires!" ”

After Shen Hui left, Lu Xuanbo reported: "King, I just received a secret report, Tuoba Jun was instigated by someone to prepare to attack Buliu Guli!" ”
