Chapter 299: Alternative Exams
The audience was suddenly shocked by the majestic and loud voice of the prince, and gradually returned to quiet.
Some people were shocked and trembled, looking at the person sitting firmly in the seat, they couldn't imagine why Zhao Rui, the prince, had such a loud voice.
"If anyone doesn't want to take the test, they can leave now."
Zhao Rui's voice was flat, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
At this moment, the enthusiasm of a group of readers was unexpectedly ignited.
On the spot, many students who stood up stiffened their necks and looked at Zhao Rui unconvinced.
One of them was a tall man who was very good-looking, and his temper seemed to be extremely impatient.
"We've never done such a test question at all, and the question hasn't come out like this, is it possible that our students study hard in the cold window, and in the eyes of the prince, it's just a joke for you to play with!"
Someone talks to himself so outrageously, isn't he afraid of death?
Zhao Rui was stunned for a moment......
Oh yes, this was in the Song Dynasty.
The atmosphere of the Northern Dynasty in which scholars and doctors desperately spoke out and gave advice is still fascinating among the people, and these people are probably poisoned by such thoughts, hum! No humility, what does it look like!
Maybe Zhao Rui didn't answer for a while, and someone spoke again.
"Today, students from all over the world gather here, and if you want to become a close minister by the prince's side, maybe it is the wealth you promised, and some even came from afar in the Yuan Dynasty, but the prince has come out with such a scroll to tease us, aren't you afraid of being despised by the students of the world?"
After this man finished speaking, he looked arrogant, as if he had done something amazing.
There are still many people around him who stand up, like those loyal courtiers above the court.
I'll it!
Zhao Rui's heart has already started scolding, these cheap things, in the end I am the prince or they are the prince, I am looking for a courtier, not an ancestor with nostrils facing the sky!
"This king said one last time! If you don't want to take the test, leave immediately, otherwise it will be regarded as maliciously disrupting the order of the examination room, and you will be decided! ”
Zhao Rui said coldly, with no meaning at all, anyone can hear the momentum of killing people if they don't agree.
Unexpectedly, those students put on a sad look, as if it was Zhao Rui, not them.
"Lord, how can you say such a thing, Taizu has already set up a monument as a training, don't kill the doctor, you despise the people of the world so much, isn't it a departure from the world? Lord Wang, it's too late for you to change the exam papers now! ”
The person who said this was the person sent by the Southern Song Dynasty court, originally he was a good point in the court, and he was a little proud when he was sent here, but such a volume simply made him unable to give full play to his advantages, and he came from afar, and he really felt teased.
It was just to say a few more words when the crowd was excited, so that Zhao Rui couldn't resist the change of the test paper by everyone.
But no matter how many people oppose it, so what?
Zhao Rui already had a plan in his heart, how could he be controlled by these three-legged cats.
"Bastard!"
There were at least a few hundred people standing in the audience, and Zhao Rui scolded them all.
"For the sake of your identity as a student, I will simply explain it to you!"
Zhao Rui continued with a serious expression: "First of all, I am not the emperor, and you are not a scholar!" Besides, this is my territory, so you have to listen to me! The Song Dynasty used you literati too badly, and even the minimum etiquette was gone! You have no rules, you talk nonsense, when this is a bazaar! ”
Everyone widened their eyes and was surprised when they heard this, and Zhao Rui easily overthrew the ancestral training of the Song Dynasty.
At this time, everyone re-clarified Zhao Rui's identity in their hearts, and now the so-called prince is just a title, and his Zhao Rui's army is fighting against the Yuan and Song Dynasty at the same time, which means that he does not belong to the Great Song Dynasty, and naturally he does not have to abide by those outdated rules.
At first, the two people who spoke couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat at this time, and they were woken up by Zhao Rui's reprimand, the method that may be applicable in the Great Song Dynasty is just a joke here.
Zhao Rui had long thought that there would be such a reaction today, and it happened that this was the first scene, so that they understood that if there were no more people below who were not big or small, Zhao Rui would not keep his hand like this.
"Okay, if you don't want to take the test, let's go......" Zhao Rui looked at the people below who were honest, and his tone tended to be flat again.
At this time, most of the protesters sat down, thinking that since the test paper could not be changed, then take the test, anyway, it was the same paper, and if they couldn't do it themselves, maybe others would do worse.
There are dozens of people who reluctantly pack up their things and leave, and the literati also have the backbone of the literati, they feel that Zhao Ruidao is different and does not conspire with each other.
Zhao Rui felt that it was normal for everyone to have their own ambitions, so he did not stop them from leaving.
At this time, the official sent by the Song Dynasty couldn't help but sneer, he didn't believe that Zhao Rui would kill people in public! This may also have become the mindset of the officials of the Song Dynasty, thinking that Zhao Rui must be like the emperor who does not kill literati, for fear that once he is killed, it will chill the people of the world.
Moreover, what is the ability of a literati, that is, he can say that the dead are alive, and with a three-inch tongue, this official feels that he still has the strength to fight!
The official brewed a good mood and shouted: "Lord Wang! Never! You do this......"
"Shut up!"
Zhao Rui slapped the table suddenly, this person didn't know what to do, and there was no need to keep it.
"Come on, behead him in public!"
"Huh?"
After the official was interrupted, he still looked inexplicable, thinking that he had heard it wrong?
"Yes!"
When the two soldiers who maintained order stepped forward, they put him on the left and the right in front of Zhao Rui!
"You...... How dare you ......"
The official was so frightened that he couldn't stand up if it weren't for someone driving him.
He was scared and felt like he was dreaming.
How can you say kill, you really want to kill?
The candidates in the audience didn't have the heart to make papers at this time, and watched the development of the situation with bated breath.
"Drag it out and kill it, don't stain the table!" Zhao Rui waved his hand in annoyance, like driving away a fly.
"Yes!"
In front of everyone's eyes, the two soldiers really dragged the man aside, and cut off the head with a click, and the round head fell to the ground, still maintaining an incredible expression.
This is how the so-called killing chickens and monkeys works.
Zhao Rui snorted disdainfully, and then glanced at the candidates in the audience.
The eyes were like torches, and the candidates who came into contact with Zhao Rui's sight trembled all over, and immediately became a good baby who was serious about doing the questions.
After a while, after the soldier searched the luggage of the dead man, he went to Zhao Rui's side and said, "Lord Wang, this person has the official robe of the Song Dynasty!" ”
"Well, I know......" Zhao Rui waved his hand lightly to let the guards retreat.
This man really deserved to die.
Zhao Rui had long been prepared for such a situation, and their Yuan and Song Dynasty conspiracy did not play a role at all.
There are many things in this set of test papers, most of which are the problems that grassroots officials will encounter when they work, and the ability to actually solve things in this is the focus of Zhao Rui's investigation.
Many of these candidates came from the southwest, and even from Jiaozhi, they are all civil officials that Zhao Rui asked Zhang Zhennan to accept before, and now it is also an opportunity for them to show their talents, with their work experience, there is a natural advantage in doing such a test paper.
At the same time, this can be regarded as Zhao Rui giving them a chance to get ahead, as long as they have the ability, Zhao Rui is ready to let them improve, which is also what they deserve.
There was a lot of sad faces in the audience, but he still had to scratch his ears and cheeks to finish the test papers.
Everyone has a fluke mentality, and even at the end of the literary exam, Zhao Rui thought that the scene of a large number of people leaving did not appear, and they were still waiting to release the list to see their luck.
The literary test is followed by the martial arts test.
For the martial arts test, the Yuan Dynasty sent a lot of people, their bows and arrows, and swordsmanship are exquisite, and they really have too many advantages in competition with the people of the Song Dynasty.
Since they came, they must have dressed up as Song people, and they are very difficult to identify with the naked eye.
However, Zhao Rui's arrangement left all the advantages to his soldiers.
Because one of the competitions is musket shooting!
Oh my God, how do you shoot a musket?
The people were all dumbfounded, they didn't know anything about the musket, how could they participate in the competition?
However, the martial artists do not have the sour and rancid problems of the literati, but they will do whatever Zhao Rui says.
If it is said that for civil officials, Zhao Rui still has the idea of recruiting talents from all over the world, but when he comes to the martial arts test, he will not have it at all.
There are so many soldiers under his command, who are born and die with their own army, and now it is time to select generals, if you don't give them the opportunity, who else can you give it?
Therefore, in the musket shooting competition, Zhao Rui's soldiers were like fish in water and achieved good results, and Zhao Rui nodded approvingly.
At the end of the competition, Zhao Rui ordered the generals on the spot, of course, most of them were his own soldiers.
The people sent by the two parties had already seen the clue at this time, so naturally they didn't dare to say anything, but they just hated themselves for running away in vain.
There are many fewer people in the martial arts test than in the literary test, and although they have gone a lot, Xiangfan does not show the slightest coldness.
At this time, everyone was waiting for the release of the list, and some people who had been received by Zhang Zhennan were still bragging about it, anyway, there was no result yet, and it would be a while to blow it for a while.
It was strange that the volume was out, and at this time, those who had no money were even more bottomless in their hearts.
"Lord Wang, what a great idea you have come up with!"
Zhang Zhennan said as he checked the list in the booklet and crossed out a few more names.
In fact, the list has come out a long time ago, but it has to be "filtered" by Zhang Zhennan.
"Haha, look at those few who have good grades and are crossed out by you, they are designated as officials on both sides of the Yuan and Song Dynasties!" The arrangement worked, and Zhao Rui was also very comfortable.
"Yes, definitely!"
Zhang Zhennan's pen was a little heavier.
In the early morning of the second day, a firecracker was set off at the entrance of the teahouse, and then the list of red silk cloth was released.
According to the results, Zhao Rui took one hundred and eighty civil officials, and the huge black characters could be seen clearly even from a distance, and the crowd around the teahouse was soon surrounded.
Under the red list, there are all kinds of beings, some cry and some laugh, some rejoice, and some want to hang themselves.
