The old man of the field pavilion is very angry. He has always been very optimistic about Qiansun Dan's talent※

This talent is not to say that Sun Dan's poetry and articles, in Yang Tinghe's view, these things are elegant and elegant on weekdays, and they can be used to test for fame during the imperial examination, but they are useless with the country and the people.

Yang Tinghe is optimistic about Sun Dan's political talent, and he also appreciates his proposed tax reform. I once thought about pulling him into my camp, and then influencing the emperor, making a big change to the structure of the court, streamlining the structure, and eliminating redundant officials.

Of course, neither Sun Dan nor the emperor were in favor of such radical political reforms.

Later, because of the trend of the Great Rites Discussion, Yang Fu and the emperor also had a fierce conflict, and this matter was over.

However, Sun Dan played the role of soy sauce in this, and did not point fingers at the imperial examination because he was a close minister of the Son of Heaven, but devoted himself to doing practical things in Fangshan, this attitude made Yang Ge Lao quite appreciative, and felt that this young man was a pure person.

In fact, the palace test post is a walk. Passing the scene, ranking the tributes who passed the test.

Sun Dan has already won the first place in Huiyuan, if there is no big accident, the top three in the first class will not be able to run. If you write this policy with all your heart, it will be idle to be the champion.

What is the champion, this name has a special meaning for all readers.

What's more, Sun Dan used to understand Yuan and Huiyuan in one breath, and now he has won another champion, wouldn't it be three yuan. Coupled with his own outstanding talent, the future is naturally very good.

But now Sun Dan's butt is not hot in the examination room, so he gets up and does the paper. This "is too casual, isn't it, and it doesn't take the temple test seriously, right?"

He can not be this champion, but if he misses this opportunity, even if he enters the Hanlin Academy in the future, he will need to stay up for many years to be useful. If you have the title of champion Gong, you can fight for ten years less, and now the cabinet is old and needs fresh blood. His Sun Dan and son Yang Shen are going to enter the cabinet in the future, and they will share the worries of the country and the monarch a year earlier, and Yang Ge should also hand over this thousand catties of burden as soon as possible.

There are already signs of collapse in the country's finances, and if it is not broken, it will not be able to stand on its own. It is necessary to have radical reformers like Yang Shen and progressive moderates like Sun Dan to preside over the political situation, so that after Yang Tinghe retires and retires, he will not be ruined.

Sun Dan, Sun Dan, why can't you understand my hard work?

Yang Tinghe was suddenly a little heartbroken.

After all, he is an old qualified minister, and he is an assistant, and he can't care so much, he strode to the emperor's side, took the Sun Dan's paper in the emperor's hand, put it on Sun Dan's case, and shouted: "In the examination room, if the candidate has not finished the question, he must not leave for no reason!" Sun Dan, pay attention to your physique. ”

This sudden change caused hundreds of candidates to turn their heads at the same time.

The candidates were a little confused and didn't understand what was going on.

The emperor was also taken aback by Yang Tinghe's move, he had been very unhappy with Yang Ge Lao recently, and he was not easy to talk to, so he stared at Lao Yang so angrily.

Yang Tinghe was not afraid and glared back.

The atmosphere in the examination room suddenly became tense.

Sun Dan saw that Lord Fu and the emperor had a red face, and he was amused in his heart, and he was secretly surprised. Lao Yang in front of him was not polite to the emperor at all, and it seemed that the two of them had completely turned their faces on the imperial examination.

He didn't want to get involved, so he only whispered to Yang Tinghe: "Deputy Chief Examiner, Student Sun Dan's questions have been completed, please collect the papers."

Yang Tinghe snorted angrily: "Hastily." I don't think it's worth it He sighed in his heart, Sun Dan, Sun Dan, if you don't cherish your fame, I can't care so much.

As soon as he stretched out his hand, he took Sun Dan's paper, and while holding it and reading it, he walked towards his examiner's seat.

Seeing that Yang Ge Lao let himself go, Sun Dan breathed a sigh of relief and saluted the emperor.

The emperor looked towards the side hall and gave Sun Dan a look.

Sun Dan knew that Jiajing was letting him go to the side to wait, so he carefully walked towards the side hall. But as soon as he walked to the door of the main hall, he heard a bang.

Although this sound is not loud, it can be a place in the temple of peace. The place of the palace examination is the place where the emperor receives foreign envoys and the coronation ceremony of the empress, and one of the most solemn places in the country, which is equivalent to the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse in later generations.

When the candidates entered here, they naturally had great pressure. They were all trembling and sweating, and they didn't even breathe a little less than usual.

This sound suddenly sounded, just like a thunderclap in the flat ground, and even Sun Dan was shocked to the point that his body trembled.

When he looked back, it turned out to be Yang Tinghe who happened to crash into a candidate's case. He stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

After a few circles, Yang Ge Lao stabilized his figure. But the candidates' examination cases are all specially made, not high, only less than one meter, and they are also very light. When he hit it, the pen, ink, and paper on the desk fell to the ground, and the thick black ink splashed in all directions.

The atmosphere in the examination room was already tense, and the candidates' nerves were extremely tense. Yang Ge Lao hit his head on the exam case like this, and the candidate next to him was frightened, so he only stayed for a moment, and suddenly rolled his eyes and fainted on the ground.

And so it goes. It's a mess. There are old students shouting! "Dead man, dead man!" Kokoro※

"It's all quiet, it's all quiet, it's not messy!" Yang Tinghe shouted loudly, after all, he was a courtier, he had his own majesty, and he was a first-class celebrity, and he had a very high reputation in Shilin, and the candidates were silent when they ate this roar.

Yang Tinghe: "Everyone continue to do the papers, this candidate is probably tired, the doctor, the doctor, come and feed him some righteous qi water, just rest for a while." ”

Because the palace test is a national ceremony, it is very important, and there have long been doctors from the Tai Hospital waiting next to them, and they have already prepared medicines. Listening to Yang Tinghe's shout, they all rushed out, pinched people, pinched people, and poured medicine. Only for a moment, the fainting candidate woke up faintly: "Am I dead or alive?" ”

Yang Tinghe snorted: "Alive, get up and answer the question." ”

"Yes, yes, it turns out that I am in the palace examination, it turns out that I was born in the tribute, it turns out that I am not dreaming, I really participated in the palace examination." The examinee suddenly burst into ecstasy, and picked up his pen again to answer the question quickly.

Everyone in the hall sighed in their hearts: this damn imperial examination has made people abnormal. This Gongsheng dreamed that he was participating in the palace examination, but when he really participated in the palace examination, he thought that he was in a dream. Zhuang Zhou Mengdie is probably like this!

Sun Dan watched for a long time and saw that everything had returned to calm. Only then did he smile and leave, and entered the side hall of the Baohe Hall with the eunuch who came to guide the way, and waited there with a cup of tea.

He still didn't understand what had just been born and what happened to Yang Ji.

While Sun Dan was thinking, Yang Tinghe was also very annoyed in his heart, blaming himself for being attracted by Sun Dan's article just now, so he hit a candidate's desk headlong, greatly losing the dignity of his cabinet assistant.

It turned out that he, like Emperor Jiajing, only read Sun Dan's article at a glance, and was completely attracted to it.

Yang Ge has been an official all his life and has presided over the cabinet for many years, but it can be said that the affairs of the Ming Dynasty are all in his mind, how can he not see the hidden meaning in Sun Dan's article.

This guy is going to implement his tax reform with an iron heart, and through this means, it can be said that he has kidnapped all the officials in the world.

But this is good governance. It is of great benefit to the country, the people, the monarch and the officials.

It seems that it is an unstoppable trend to use silver as the unit of settlement for taxation, and to abolish taxes in kind and succession.

It's a good idea.

But......

Yang Tinghe was fascinated, but suddenly remembered an important thing, the country's mines produce so much silver every year, if all the silver is used, at least more than 30 million taels of cash are needed in the market, but where do we get so much silver?

Do you really want to open a sea voyage and find a way to do it from overseas?

You can find a way to get silver from overseas, but you need to exchange it for an equivalent item. Is the silk made in Jiangnan and the silk output of the Fangshan Weaving Bureau enough?

The tea production in Fujian's Jiangxi region does not seem to be successful this year.

As for the porcelain, it is still stable.

He was so engrossed in this thought that he actually bumped into it and almost made a big ugly.

Of course, the emperor must have been very proud. This young prince is afraid that his heart has blossomed at this moment. He hates me, Yang Tinghe.

After returning to the examiner's seat, Yang Tinghe looked at Sun Dan's paper again and handed it to the other two cabinet ministers.

Mao Ji and Jiang Mian each glanced at each other, exchanged a look at each other, and then nodded incessantly, and said in a low voice: "It's time to taste." ”

Yang Tinghe: "Please." ”

Mao Ji Tibi cinnabar pen drew a small circle on one of the sentences, indicating that this sentence can be considered excellent.

Jiang Mian also drew a small circle on two of the sentences.

Then several other examiners looked at the paper, and each drew a lot of small circles on it.

In the assessment of the palace examination, if there is a good sentence, the examiner will draw a circle on it as a mark. In the end, the one with the most circles is naturally the champion.

Yang Tinghe suddenly smiled and whispered to the other seven people: "This volume has not been sealed. Don't get along with the rules. ”

"Otherwise, the palace examination is conducted by the emperor himself, and he has already read the papers, so everything is in power." The meaning of everyone is already very clear, since the emperor does not follow the rules, there is no need for everyone to abide by it, anyway, the palace test is just a formality and a ranking for everyone. The emperor is the greatest, and his rules are naturally the constitution of the imperial court.

After this review, Sun Dan's volume is naturally full of red circles.

The champion of this subject will not be able to run away.

But Sun Dan was sitting in the side hall waiting at the moment, naturally he didn't know all this.

He waited for a while, but saw Jiajing come in.

Sun Dan hurriedly stood up.

The emperor waved his hand: "No courtesy, the matter is urgent, and there is no need for so many courtesies." You go out of the city and go to Tongzhou immediately. ”

Sun Dan: "Dare to ask Your Majesty what did you want your ministers to do in Tongzhou?" ”

Emperor Jiajing: "The queen mother of the union has arrived, and now she is stationed in the palace of Tongzhou and is not allowed to enter the city. "Just the old old mouth... 8 fisherman's concave body clams!
