Chapter 85: Setting the Tone
Now these students who are chatting at the gate of the palace will become the backbone of the imperial court in Chinese New Year's Eve years. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Needless to say, the first class entered Hanlin, and directly intersected with the elders. It's not bad to be a Jishi, as long as your body can survive, even if you can't do anything, you will be a six-year-old random gangster in the future.
No matter how bad the mix is, at least you can go to the local area to be a local magistrate and be a soil emperor, which is very powerful.
A few people walked around and chatted, and they knew each other, and it was not early at this time outside, and everyone knelt down to answer that they were tired after a day, and they exchanged a few words of greeting, and they all dispersed after wishing each other a while.
The students here looked for the sedan chair that they had been waiting for at the door for a long time, and they all left one by one and went home to rest. And the reading of the 12 digits over there has just begun.
The answer sheet of the temple examination does not have to be copied, it is directly corrected.
This volume, the answer is good to play in circles, and if it is not good to play crosses, if it is not good or bad, it will not be marked, starting from Xia Shoufu, turning a whole circle, and ending at the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, it looks very funny.
Although it may seem interesting, the symbolism of this process is very serious.
Whether Xia Shoufu's pen is a circle or a fork will directly affect the student's life.
Whether he is a first-class or third-class person, whether he stays in Beijing or returns to his hometown, whether he is a rising Hanlin or a prefect in a remote place, it is all between the forks and turns in this circle.
Halfway through the reading, I saw Xia Shoufu, who was reading the volume, frowning, as if he was very dissatisfied with the scroll on his hand, the more than two meters long the rolling paper, the more he looked at the frowning tighter, the more he looked at the frowning tighter, and when he saw the end, he was already wrinkled at the same height as his nose.
"Yin ruthless and biased, the text is not right! I don't know which family it is. Xia Shoufu flipped through the scroll in his hand and muttered a comment.
"What kind of answer sheet is this, which can make Xia Shoufu so dissatisfied?" , Yue Song smiled softly and took the volume.
It's not because he is watching and listening to all directions, and while reading the papers, he can also take the time to look at Xia Yan's face and expression, and listen to Xia Shoufu's soft comments.
In fact, even if you don't listen to Xia Shoufu's evaluation, it is easy to see his dissatisfaction, because ...... Xia Shoufu's fork is really too big.
Vigorous and powerful, the force penetrates the back of the paper, a big unruly fork, there is no place to mark the people behind it, probably because I think this roll paper no longer needs to be reviewed.
Originally, if Xia Shoufu was so dissatisfied, the rest of the people would not be able to take a closer look at this volume. Although Xia Yan is a bit old-fashioned and stubborn, there is indeed no one here who can talk to his peers about his writing skills.
Yue Song originally wanted to make a fork follow, but seeing that this fork was drawn so big, he was also interested in seeing what kind of article could make Xia Shoufu play such a big fork.
I don't know if I don't see this, I almost didn't get scared to death at first glance, this exam paper is the civil official system that Kobayashi Gongzi answered.
His Majesty wanted to be special at that time, and he took a separate exam for Kobayashi Gongzi, but was stopped by Xia Shoufu's strong opposition.
In the end, it was Yue Song's idea to test two questions of Xiaolin Gongzi. Since it was his idea, he naturally arranged it, so he knew very well what Kobayashi Gongzi was asking about the extra question.
The topic of the question asked the candidates was how to make officials honest and honest.
The topic of the additional test for Kobayashi Gongzi is also the rule of officials, but it is how to use these poor scholars.
His Majesty's original intention was to have only one answer sheet, so that Lin Fu could be examined, could he combine these two topics and answer so many small questions with a nervous number of words.
But I didn't expect Kobayashi Gongzi to feel that the number of words was not enough, so he simply didn't answer the question, the theme of this policy is clearly "how to use the Hanmen scholars to weaken the power of the powerful", although it is said to be a combination of the use of the government and the Hanmen scholars, but compared to the general talk of everyone through the Four Books and Five Classics, what is said in this policy is too specific and explicit.
This is not about the governance of officials at all, it is a struggle between officials. The content of the answer and writing is so deviant, no wonder the stereotypical Xia Shoufu doesn't like it so much.
But Yue Song is a person who understands, and he knows why his official career has been bumpy over the years, but he still goes all the way up and sits all the way to the position of second assistant to the cabinet.
He is not so arrogant as to think that he really is so special and talented. He understands that the reason why he can surpass many of the same scholars is not only because he is low-key, good at observing words and feelings, and can be a person.
Another very important reason is that he is not a member of the elite faction in the capital.
This strategy is really too bold, Yue Song thought about it for a while, and felt that even if he thought of this idea, he would never dare to show it to His Majesty so blatantly, let alone answer this kind of strategy on an occasion like the palace test.
But Your Majesty will definitely like it, Yue Song has already made his own judgment between the turns of his mind.
If this article was done by someone else, not necessarily. But this is what Kobayashi Gongzi did, so His Majesty will definitely be able to tolerate the presumptuousness and disrespect in it, and accept this absurd "official system" in the eyes of the authorities.
Yue Song vaguely felt that the opportunity had come.
It is normal for the Cabinet Vice-Ministers to fantasize that one day they will be able to replace him and become the Chief-Assistant. It's human nature, and no one doesn't want to.
But whether to think about it in your heart or put it into action are two concepts and two natures.
To be honest, Yue Song has had this idea for a while, but he hasn't had a good enough opportunity.
In fact, he is not to blame for this matter, but Xia Yan has done it too ugly.
It stands to reason that the cabinet elders are also senior, some come first and come first, high and low.
But no matter what, even if it's the last one, it's the cabinet elder! What's more, he Yue Song is the second assistant of the cabinet?
For many times, some government affairs were sent to the cabinet to sign, and it was clear that according to the regulations, both adults were required to sign, but Xia Yan always relied on his old qualifications and sufficient work experience. After reading it, I never asked for the opinions of others, and I thought it was feasible and started to approve it.
He Yue Song couldn't even see half a word of what was written in this document, let alone other scholars.
It's okay to do this once or twice, but after a long time, Yue Cifu slowly got into such crooked thoughts.
finally became the second assistant of the cabinet, but he still has to suffer from this kind of anger!
But he was a cautious man after all, and he never showed any signs or made any moves. Recently, the reason why he has gradually strengthened his mind is His Majesty's attitude.
His Majesty first used Xia Yan as the head of the cabinet, because Xia Yan was the secretary of the Ministry of Rites of the previous dynasty, and there were many protégés, and the world had just been pacified at that time, and he needed a talented person to sit in this position, and he also needed a famous person to attract scholars from all over the world, and Xia Yan was the best choice.
After the latter effect is achieved, if it is an ordinary situation, Xia Yan can no longer be used, but although Xia Yan's temper is stinky and hard, his work ability is extremely strong, His Majesty is short of trustworthy literati, Xia Yan's stinky and hard temper ensures that he will not get together with the powerful, so it has been used to this day.
But with His Majesty's little bit of layout, including the establishment of the Imperial Court and the addition of the Second Guard of the Forbidden Army, his control over the imperial court is slowly becoming stronger, and the old-fashioned Xia Yan has been strongly opposed to His Majesty's many reforms, which is gradually becoming an obstacle for him.
Therefore, in recent years, His Majesty has become more and more prone to frowning when he looks at Xia Shoufu, and it is becoming more and more likely to be dissatisfied, and these Yue Song have seen it in his eyes.
But he still didn't dare, didn't dare to make a move, didn't dare to open this head, and didn't know how to start this head.
Until today, he felt that the opportunity had finally arrived. Kobayashi is the best weapon he can use to attack Natsuhiko.
As a non-elite faction, although Yue Song was very surprised by this official system, he still supported it. And he can see through it, and His Majesty must be very supportive.
As the second assistant of the cabinet, and the kind of person who is good at observing words and looking at things and figuring out his thoughts, Yue Song certainly would not feel that this plan was ridiculous like Xia Yan, and hit a big fork on it.
He knew very well in his heart that many places in this official system simply coincided with His Majesty!
It can even be said that there are many things that His Majesty originally wanted to do, but due to the restrictions of various things, he did not say it in the end and did not put it into action.
This Kobayashi Gongzi's courage is really great, this is not a strategy to answer the palace test questions at all, and even this is not something written as a student at all, but he has clearly put himself in the position of His Majesty's confidant.
If this is an ordinary student who dares to be so bold, His Majesty will understand even if he orders to cut off this person's head when he sees this policy.
But the relationship between this person and His Majesty is very tough, so hard that it can't be harder, His Majesty sees this strategy, not only will he not feel that Kobayashi Gongzi is overstepping, but he will feel very moved and gratified, how can his nephew be so caring and talented, and I want to go together!
However, Xia Shoufu drew a big cross in this policy, which clearly pulled himself to the opposite side of Kobayashi's policy and Yanguan's policy.
On the other hand, he saved this answer sheet that could not have been selected into the top ten, and omitted His Majesty's curious question of "Why didn't you see Lin Xiaozi's answer sheet", you said that after Lin Fu entered Hanlin, who would he worship as a student?
In the future, when His Majesty implements this policy of speech and officials, will the two teachers and students who support it be pleasing or the bad old man who sticks his neck out to oppose it will be pleased?
You only need to cut this answer sheet lightly and skillfully, and take it to the emperor together with the top ten answer sheets, and you don't need to say more about other things at all, Your Majesty will naturally have a decision in his heart.
He Yue Song could think with his ass, how exaggerated the promotion speed of Kobayashi Gongzi who came up with this plan would be in the future, if he was included in the door and replaced Xia Yan as the first assistant, would it take too long?
Finally, Yue Song, who has been low-key all his life and never makes small moves in his words and deeds, made the most important decision in his life in April of the fourteenth year of the Zhou calendar, but he didn't know that His Majesty had already prepared and waited for the cabinet to enter the game.
He just chose an opportunity, got up indifferently, and put the scroll with a big cross on it at the bottom of the pile that had been read next to the waiter of the Ministry of Rites. The articles that are not optimistic about the first and second assistants do not need to be reviewed.,Just put it and wait for the next day to rank it casually.,It's a common thing.,So no one noticed the abnormality.。
The remaining ten graders present also had no idea what they had missed.
