While the four of them were thinking about the situation in the north in the study, the chief examiner and several deputy examiners had already judged all the examination papers. The one who sent it was only the last link to determine the head of the government test.
The prefectural examination is not a formal examination, and the vague name system is only implemented when the college examination is reached. Therefore, at this time, the five selected examination papers that are qualified to compete for the first qualification of the case are placed in front of several examiners.
These examiners looked a little entangled at this time, because it was not a vague name system, and the names of the five exam papers were revealed in front of them. If it is only based on the merits of the article, there is no doubt that Luo Xin should win the first case. Luo Xin's article definitely fits the name of Yanglin County prodigy.
However, it is normal if Luo Xin is not set as the head of the case, and no one can find fault with it, after all, the level of the remaining four exam papers is not weak. Although there is a gap, it is not to dismiss Luo Xin, presumably Luo Xin will not make trouble.
So, what are they struggling with?
Because they all know the relationship between Luo Xin and Zhou Tingyu, and they also know the relationship between Zhou Tingyu and Yan Dang. There are a total of five examiners, and most of Yan Song's forces are distributed in the south, and in the bitter cold land of the north, not many of Yan Song's henchmen are willing to come, so only one of these five people is Yan Dang.
Two of the remaining four people are Xu Jie's people, Xu Jie's is a forbearant person, so on the surface in the court, he is like a fart of Yan Song, and almost everything is agreed between the saint and Yan Song, so Xu Jie has no choice but to fight for Yan Jie to install his own people in the north that Yan Dang does not want to come.
So there are two people left, these two people are interesting, one is the so-called Qingliu, he doesn't care about Yan Dang and Xu Dang, in Qingliu's opinion, they are all all the way. Only they are the mainstay of the Ming Dynasty. The last one is a descendant of Wang Xue.
The founders of Wang Xue are Wang Shouren and Wang Mingyang, the originators of psychology who have influenced China for hundreds of years. The center of his theory is the unity of knowledge and action. This kind of thinking had a serious conflict with the science of the unified Ming thought at that time, because the theory put forward by Zhu Xi was difficult to know and easy to do. So before Wang Shouren was born, the scholars of the Ming Dynasty only read books and did nothing else. The ancestors of science have said that it is easy to know the difficult and the easy. As long as I am enlightened, won't it be as easy to govern the country and level the world as it is to find things?
But the science of science is like a dead wood that has decayed, and the study of the mind is like a new sprout that spits green and is full of vitality. In a very short period of time, a frenzy was blown in Daming. A large number of scholars worshiped under the door of Xinxue, forming a force to be reckoned with.
As a result, the disciples of science became jealous of the study of the mind, and throughout history, the believers of this faith have become mad, more ferocious and ruthless than robbers.
In the early years of Jiajing, Yang Yiqing, Gui Cao and others, who mastered the court, kicked off the prelude to suppressing psychology. And Emperor Jiajing, after some weighing, also felt that science was more suitable for royal rule. He resolutely chose to support science.
So the government and the opposition began to purge Xinxue, and the Xinxue disciples who were officials in the court were dismissed one after another, and the colleges established by Xinxue were ordered to close, and Xinxue entered a trough.
However, Xinxue has not disappeared, and the Xinxue people have not been depressed, but they have turned from the light to the dark and concealed their identities. Re-fight for the right to the court. And at this time, this last examiner is the heart scholar.
Therefore, among these five people, only one of the Yan Dangmen was determined not to let Luo Xin win the head of the case. But others are lonely, which is also the reason why he is entangled.
And the two people in the Xu Party didn't know that Lu Tingfang had offended Xu Jie, but they knew that Lu Tingfang had rejected Xu Jie's kindness and was not born, but both of them received a letter from Xu Jie's staff member Xiao Wumou a few days ago, and said in their hearts that it would be best if Luo Xin could be dismissed, if they couldn't stop it. That wouldn't allow Luo Xin to take the lead.
These two people also analyzed it in their hearts, they didn't think about Xu Jie's resentment of Lu Tingfang, they just thought that Lu Tingfang had offended Xiao Wumou. That's why the two of them are entangled. Moreover, one of them is still a northerner, and there has never been a talented man in the north in the Ming Dynasty, and Luo Xin's article shows that he is likely to become a talented man who competes with the southern scholars. This made him even more entangled.
And what the person in the heart of the Xinxue Sect at this time was whether Luo Xin could be included in the Xinxue Sect, only that Qingliu thought that Luo Xin should be the head of the case. On the one hand, Luo Xin's article is indeed well written, which is Qingliu's favorite. On the other hand, he also knew Luo Xin's performance in the water of literary struggle, which won Luo Xin impression points. Of course, he was also thinking about finding an opportunity to pull Luo Xin into the Qingliu camp. It's just that Luo Xin studied under Lu Tingfang, and in his heart and the people of Xinxue, Lu Tingfang is regarded as Xu Dang, so he is also entangled in his heart.
In the end, as the chief examiner, Yang Yanqing, a member of the Heart Sect, said: "Everyone, the five answer sheets with the best results in the Jinyang Mansion Examination this time are placed in front of us, and we will judge one order and set the ranking." ”
Seeing that the four deputy examiners were silent, Yang Yanqing spoke again: "Whether in terms of calligraphy or the content of the article, I think Luo Xin should be the head of the case, what do you colleagues think?" ”
"I'm against it!" The deputy examiner of the Yan Party immediately spoke: "I don't think this article on Zhu Ji is worse than Luo Xin's." ”
"I agree to make Luo Xin the head of the case." That Qingliu examiner Jiang Rui said.
"I also don't agree with Luo Xin as the head of the case." The examiner of one of the two Xu Dang spoke, and he still gave Xiao Wumou a face.
At this time, everyone's eyes turned to another Xu Party examiner, that is, Mao De, the examiner who was from the north. A look of hesitation flashed in Mao De's eyes, and finally his feelings for the north prevailed over his relationship with Xiao Wumou, and he said:
"I agree to make Luo Xin the head of the case."
The government office posted the list, and Luo Xin and the others came to the school palace early to wait for the list. This is just a children's test, and after that, it is only a child, belonging to the lowest level of the scholars, and the court will not give any benefits to the child, so this is not considered to be a meritorious person, and naturally there is no one to congratulate him, everyone goes to the school palace to see the list by themselves.
Luo was not nervous, he knew that he would definitely be able to pass the exam, and the difference was just the ranking. Whether he can win the head of the case depends on luck, not to mention that his situation is more complicated.
At this time, the list has not yet begun, and the number of people in front of the school palace has gradually increased. When there are still two quarters of an hour before the list, the school palace is already crowded, you must know that it is not only the candidates who come to see the list, but also the relatives and friends of the candidates, which adds up to nearly 20,000 people, who came a little later, and they couldn't squeeze in front at all.
