One hundred and eighty-three resignations

After the roll call outside the Donghua Gate, it is the new branch of the Jinshi to thank the temple. Under the guidance of the officials of the Ministry of Rites, the scholars lined up in the new ranking, and walked into the open Xuande Gate in turn, headed by the champion Jia An.

According to the rules of the Great Song Dynasty, all the Jinshi thanked the emperor under the leadership of the champion, and the emperor gave the champion Lang to cross the horse and parade the streets, and then there was the Qionglin banquet, and the examination of this subject was successfully completed. This was the case with every subject, and the emperor and his ministers were accustomed to it.

But when Jia Dian led the jinshi to salute like a ceremony, the emperor was about to speak, when suddenly someone from the neat queue of the jinshi stepped out of the line and bowed to the emperor again.

At this moment, all the eyes of the emperor and his ministers were attracted. This man was at the top of the list, and everyone could see him clearly, and immediately their glasses widened. The officials of the Ministry of Rites and the imperial historians who maintained order were all nervous: "Li does not give up? What is he going to do again? ”

Although the front of the main hall was empty, Li Bu gave up his anger and sank dantian, and the words he said could be heard clearly by all civil and military officials: "Minister Li Bu abandoned, thank Your Majesty for hand-picking the Jinshi background!" It's just that there are unscrupulous people among the scholars in this department, and they are ashamed to be with them! It is a minister who asks to resign from this subject ranking! To live up to God's grace is a last resort! ”

The emperor's face was smoked into buns. This kind of drama is common to him, and when the minister has trouble with others, he often comes to him to ask for his resignation, to put it bluntly, "there is him without me, there is me without him, the emperor you choose".

Therefore, the emperor is also familiar with this kind of thing, he first asks the reason and then tries to make peace with the mud, and then chooses one side from both sides, or simply puts both sides in the place.

But today is a ceremony, Li Buqi said at such a ceremony that there are "unscrupulous people" among the new science and technology scholars, that is, he is really determined to stand with that person, and there is no possibility of collusion at all.

Moreover, Li Buqi said that the emperor must ask about the "unscrupulous people" mixed in among the jinshi. The purpose of the imperial examination is to select talents for the country, and the emperor allowed bad people to be mixed in, isn't this a slap in the face. And not only the face of the emperor, but also the face of the examiner.

So without waiting for the emperor to speak, Zhang Fangping, who knew the main exam, went out of class first and asked, "Which one do you say is an unscrupulous person?" ”

Li Buqi said: "Kaifeng Mansion raised Cui Xianliang and Zhang Zhen. ”

Now the front of the hall is so quiet that a pin can be heard, so Li Buqi's words were heard by all the jinshi, Cui Xianliang and Zhang Zhen also heard it clearly, only to feel like five thunderbolts. If this is confirmed, it will be the end of your life, and you will no longer have to think about the imperial examination.

I only heard Zhang Fangping ask: "How are the two of them disrespectful, you can tell me!" ”

"The minister remembered that when the minister had just been admitted to Xiucai, these two people had accused Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty of being so happy and reckless, but they never said that the wife of the ancestor, Empress Lu, was humiliated by the Huns, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty should avenge the ancestor; Not to mention the early 100 years of the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu only recorded in the history books of the invasion of twenty or thirty times. He accused Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty of serving the people of the world, but he never mentioned that the emperor's family was a heavenly family, and that 'the heavenly family has no selfish affairs'! I don't know that 'the king humiliates the minister to death'! Isn't such a person ignorant of filial piety and loyalty? ”

When the emperor heard that Li Buqi had used the "selfless affairs of the heavenly family" here, he suddenly felt empowered.

This sentence made his ears almost calloused. When he pampered the beauty, the minister said this sentence if he wanted to interfere, and when he wanted to appoint someone as an official, the minister said this sentence if he wanted to interfere, and even if he just wanted to repair the palace, the ministers still said this sentence when they were distressed about money. It seems that this sentence means the emperor's responsibility to the world, and he never thought that the people were also responsible to the emperor. With this sentence as a foundation, how the emperor sees Li Buqi is pleasing to the eye.

But Zhang Fangping didn't like Li Buqi - "Heavenly family has no selfish affairs" is used by ministers to limit imperial power, right? What else is "the death of a king and a minister"? When you say this, don't you put a tight spell on the heads of the ministers?

However, Li Buqi first brought out the righteousness of loyalty and filial piety, and he was not good at refutating it. The Great Song Dynasty established the country with "filial piety", and the emperor's favorite was "loyalty", and no one dared to smash these two signboards. He can only avoid the important and trivialize: "There are some young students who are not knowledgeable, not necessarily because they do not know loyalty and filial piety." It must be known that since the Qin Dynasty, there have been border troubles in the north, and the Han and Tang dynasties have gone on expeditions of thousands of miles to sweep the desert north, so what? The border trouble is still there today! It can be seen that it is useless to only know that conquest is useless, it is better to show tenderness to the barbarians, and then you can protect the territory and the people, wouldn't it be better? Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty only knew how to use soldiers for many years, but he did not know how to recuperate, which caused the people's livelihood to wither, and many people died. A great achievement, he still deserves it. ”

Li Buqi didn't give up but didn't save face at all: "May I ask Mr. Zhang, have you stopped eating now?" ”

Zhang Fangping said angrily: "Which living person can skip eating? ”

Li Buqi said: "People will still be hungry after eating, as the bachelor said, there is no need to eat!" ”

After a pause, waiting for people to react, Li Buqi continued: "Bachelor Zhang must know about the chaos of the five nonsense, and the tragic students at that time will not repeat it. This is still the case when the Huns have been driven thousands of miles away. If there were Xiongnu on the side when Xin Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, would Zhang Bachelor dare to guarantee that there would still be the Eastern Han Dynasty? Will there be a Xiongnu rebellion? In that way, the Han people did not die on the battlefield, so they should be killed by the Hu people as 'two-legged sheep'. Therefore, students think that it is a way to commit suicide if they do not destroy a strong enemy while the country is strong. ”

Zhang Fangping's mind was a little messy. It has always been said that the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty have been fighting for so many years and cannot completely solve the threat of the northern nomads, so the war is useless. Therefore, Zhang Fangping actually never thought carefully about what was wrong with this statement, and now he was suddenly challenged by Li Buqi, and he was a little confused.

Zhigong moved Sun Luan to replace Zhang Fangping: "You have some truth in what you said, but your opinion is not public. Then he raised his head and asked, "Where are Cui Xianliang and Zhang Zhen?" ”

Cui Xianliang and Zhang Zhen had somewhat relieved themselves when Li Buqi and Zhang Fangping were fighting, and when they heard Sun Luan click on his name, they hurriedly trotted out all the way to the front. Sun Pan asked: "Li Buqi said that you don't know loyalty and filial piety, and accused Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty of being reckless, so happy." Is there such a thing? ”

The two of them have been in the circle of the capital for a long time, so they naturally know the severity, and they don't dare to answer positively but call out the song. "Officials, we are wronged! It's really that we have heard rumors in the past few days that Li Buqi passed the exam by cheating, so I said a few words about him just now. He held a grudge, so he caused trouble! ”

Sun Luan immediately asked: "Li Bu abandoned, can there be such a thing?" ”

Li Buqi said: "There is indeed such a thing. It's just that I don't care about the villain, so I don't care about this. ”

Sun Pan said angrily: "Who can know if you say you don't hold a grudge? ”

Li Buqi said: "It's the same as a bachelor who is so old but prostitutes!" ”

Everyone heard such a loud voice, and how many pairs of eyes looked at Sun Luan in unison. What a blast of gossip!

Sun Luan's face turned red into an eggplant color, and he almost roared angrily: "You make it clear to the old man!" When did the old man prostitute himself in the daytime?! ”
