"What about the writing?" Liu Xiuwen asked unconvinced.

Zhou Yu glanced at him and said disdainfully: "You are writing with a great Confucian? ”

"Oh......"

Liu Xiuwen made a big red face, and everyone burst into laughter again. I knew in my heart that if the thinking of the nine of them really conformed to the wishes, this champion could only be Luo Xin's.

But......

They forgot that the emperor had chosen the first prize in the twelve examination papers, which were selected by the examiner and presented to him.

At this time, Lu Bing and Xu Jie were carrying the twelve selected examination papers through the corridor and heading straight for Shengshou Palace.

The lights in the Shengshou Palace were bright, and Emperor Jiajing was sitting behind the imperial book, squinting slightly and waiting for the exam papers to be sent.

When Lu Bing and Xu Jie came to the gate of Shengshou Palace, Huang Jin was already waiting there. The two of them said to Huang Jinshi:

"There is a father-in-law!"

Huang Jin smiled and said, "Your Majesty has already ordered you to come over, you don't have to report when the two adults come, just go in with our house." ”

"Father-in-law, please!"

Huang Jin turned around and took the lead in entering the Shengshou Palace, followed by Lu Bing and Xu Jie, bowing to Emperor Jiajing:

"Chen Xu Jie!"

"Chen Lu Bing!"

"Sincerely, St. Ann!"

"Get up!" Emperor Jiajing's voice remembered from above: "You have worked hard enough in the past few days, give me a seat." ”

Immediately, the little eunuch moved two brocade stools, and after Xu Jie and Lu Bing thanked him, they sat down.

Emperor Jiajing looked at the stack of test papers in Xu Jie's hand. Xu Jie hurriedly stood up again and said:

"Your Majesty, the exam papers have been screened."

Emperor Jiajing waved his hand, and Huang Jin walked out of the shadows. took the stack of test papers from Xu Jie's hand and put them on the imperial book case. Emperor Jiajing's rare expression became solemn, and he began to look at the exam papers one by one, but the more he looked at it, the more ugly his face became, not to mention that there was no Luo Xin's name in these twelve papers at all, even this answer was resolutely in favor of Kaihai's statement. This made Emperor Jiajing can't help but stretch his face, and his eyes look gloomily at Xu Jiedao:

"That's what you chosen?"

Xu Jie's expression was blank and said, "Your Majesty." These 12 examination papers are the best examination papers for this temple examination. ”

"Are you sure there's nothing missing?" Emperor Jiajing's voice was a little cold.

Xu Jie's expression was still indifferent, in fact, all the articles of Luo Xin and other Jinyang Jiujie were dethroned this time, and it was not all Xu Jie's selfishness. He also saw Da Ming's difficulties. If this momentum continues, it is only a matter of time before the Ming Dynasty falls. If you want to solve the problem of insufficient land in the Ming Dynasty, there is only one way to open the sea. Therefore, he not only dethroned Luo Xin's unconventional scrolls, but also all the scrolls that opposed the opening of the sea. So when Emperor Jiajing asked him again. He hurriedly stood up and said:

"Your Majesty. Chen believes that now the Ming Dynasty is in financial difficulties, and if you want to solve the financial problem, you can only open the sea. Therefore, the minister chose the volume according to this idea. There are three ideas in the examinee's article, the first is to only talk about how to pacify the Japanese, and after the pacification, how to make the coastal areas no longer happen without the slightest touch, this kind of people think that the vision is too shallow. The second is not to support the opening of the sea, such people are conformist and not suitable for the development of today's Ming Dynasty. And the twelve examination papers selected by the minister are the best in favor of opening the sea. ”

Emperor Jiajing looked coldly at Xu Jie, who was standing opposite him and talking. Xu Jie's words were really true, and there were no personal grievances at all. Just from the interests of the imperial court. Didn't Emperor Jiajing propose to open the sea? That's why I chose an article in support of Kaihai to support Your Majesty, which made Emperor Jiajing feel extremely depressed in his chest for a while, but he didn't know how to speak.

Two days passed quickly.

With the solemn Jingyang bell ringing, the three main doors of the five gates of the palace, and the two doors of the east and west sides slowly opened at the same time, and out of the door came out of two teams of Han generals wearing golden flying fish suits and holding a halberd, holding a halberd, holding their heads up, and walking out of the four door openings with uniform steps, standing next to the five avenues in the door.

At the same time, outside the palace gate, hundreds of civil and military officials have already arrived, and Luo Xin and other new science and technology scholars are also standing in line. The hearts of every candidate were very excited, and after today, they were one of those officials standing in front of them.

Looking at the majestic palace, the mighty Han generals, and the noble officials, thinking of the years of hard study in the past, the eyes of some candidates have been moistened.

At this time, Luo Xin's eyes fell on the three tall doorways in the front, especially the middle one was even taller, this doorway was only the emperor could walk, if others dared to walk, they would be killed immediately.

However, now Luo Xin, three of them have a chance to walk.

There are two privileges in Daming, one is that when the queen is married, you can walk from here once. The other is the champion in the palace examination, and the three people of Bangyan and Tanhua can go once.

At this time, it was not only Luo Xin's eyes that looked at the high gate hole in the middle, but all the candidates looked there. Being able to pass through there is the greatest honor in the life of a scholar, not only to glorify the ancestors, but also to leave a name in history. is the person who thinks in his heart that he will not be the champion, the list of eyes and the flowers, and their eyes looking at the doorway are also full of envy and reluctance.

"Am I going to be one of those people who walk through there?"

Even Luo Xin's heart was a little agitated at this time, he stood in the center of the team, as the head of the examination will have this treatment, all the candidates are wearing black yarn scarves, wearing wide-sleeved robes, leather belts around their waists, holding wat boards, everyone stands there solemnly, and the solemnity of a group of officials dares to spread in everyone's hearts.

Luo Xin's heart was like water at this time, he really didn't take the champion as a thing, as long as he became a jinshi, he was already satisfied. Finally, the development of the career in the future depends on the ability of the individual, and it is not that the champion will definitely be able to become the head of the cabinet. Zhang Juzheng in history is the sixth, didn't he also become the cabinet capital?

There has also been a lot of news in the past two days, after all, some of these candidates have a very good background, and the news that came out is that the twelve papers finally selected by Xu Jie are all in favor of Kaihai, which shows that candidates who do not agree with Kaihai don't want to be the champion, Bangyan and Tanhua.

In the past two days, the mood of Jinyang Jiujie was very dull, they expected the topic of Emperor Jiajing, but they didn't expect but didn't figure out the correct thoughts of Emperor Jiajing, but Luo Xin can't be blamed for this matter, they also agreed with Luo Xin's opinion after careful consideration.
