Chapter 565: Bright
The road looked down. The pig cup was quite disappointed in his conscience, and only then did he begin to be very excited and called Broken Chuan; The cooler it is. In the end, it became to comfort himself, and he couldn't help but think: "Okay, these children haven't experienced it yet, they are too young, and they will be fine after experiencing the world in the future, and they will get better slowly." ”
However, after walking through the two examination rooms, he couldn't even comfort him for the reason that he was too young, after all, many scholars were not young, and even some of their foreheads and sideburns were already white. But although he is older, the poems are not necessarily new, which is disappointing.
Zhu Sui thought in his conscience again: "I can only pick the big one among the pregnant children, and pick out the slightly better one from the bad ones!" ”
With his hands behind his back, he finally came to the examination room where Qiu Renjie was, and before entering the door, he swept his eyes and saw Wang Ping'an's follower.
He didn't go over immediately, he still looked at the table from table to table, and walked for a long time, and then walked to Qiu Renjie's table, he lowered his head, and saw that Qiu Renjie was still revising the poems, and did not directly copy the test paper, he shook his head, it seems that this son is not in a hurry, and he is not flexible in his brain, worse than most scholars. It's to get him. And the foreshadowing laid in advance, right?
Leaning to the side, Zhu Suiliang went to look at Qiu Renjie's draft, his eyes were from top to bottom, only one glance, he only took a breath of cool air, and thought: "In front of me, it's really bright!" ”
If you want to talk about literary style and calligraphy, then Zhu Suiliang was first-class in the early Tang Dynasty. In modern times, he himself is the secretary general of the number one leader, who specializes in drafting important documents, and no one dares to say that he is necessarily better than him when it comes to pen skills.
Qiu Renjie's writing may be better than him in the future, but now it is definitely not as strong as him, and even the eyes of Zhu Suiliang are slightly unqualified, but when Suiliang only reads the poems he wrote once, his eyes immediately widened!
He glanced at the poem, then at Qiu Renjie, and it happened that Qiu Renjie also looked up at him at this time. Zhu Suiliang smiled, bent down to take the draft, read it carefully again, couldn't bear it, he nodded, and shouted in his heart: "Okay!" ”
According to the requirements, Qiu Renjie's poems are also the first four lines of narrative and the last four lines of discussion, but he is not singing praises, but he is worried about the livelihood of ordinary people.
This poem is about a poor girl who makes a living by washing clothes with human pulp. The race was held, her business increased, she washed her clothes day and night, and washed the skin on her hands, but the girl was happy in her heart, because she thought that she had earned dozens of dollars more, and her table could finally be a little fishy, and she could also buy herself a few feet of flower cloth to make a new dress, she washed people every day, but she had not worn new clothes for many years.
However, when she wanted to go to the market to cut a few catties of meat and buy a few feet of cloth with the dozens of dollars she earned in her arms, she was disappointed in her heart, she couldn't afford it before. I still can't afford it, because prices have gone up! She went out happily, and returned disappointed, without a new cloth for clothes, only cut a few taels of meat, went home to make soup and drink, and bought a little medicine to bandage the wounds on her hands. Sitting under the oil lamp, she just thought to herself, "Tomorrow, I'll have to wash a few more pieces."
Zhu Suiliang read the draft and gently put it back on the table. I was speechless for a while.
As soon as the race was held, the merchants benefited, and the people generally benefited, but such a huge event also had advantages and disadvantages, and it could not be perfect because it was Wang Ping'an's idea and the times.
For the small people of Shengdou, what affects their lives is not only the extra income of some money, but also the prices. As soon as the people's income increases, the things in the market will naturally rise, especially the most basic food and clothing, which will rise the most ruthlessly. For the wealthy, it doesn't matter if the food and clothing rise point does not affect their quality of life, but for the people at the bottom, it is not a little bit of an impact.
Those who have money are richer, and those who are poor remain poor. The laundry girl written by Qiu Renjie can still have more bowls of broth on the table, and from the running meeting, she has finally benefited more or less. But what about those who can't make money at the race? What is their life like when their incomes do not increase, but they also have to endure the pain of rising prices?
Shouldn't the court care more about them? The last line of the poem ends with such a rhetorical question!
The poem written by Qiu Renjie is completely different from what other scholars wrote, no one else has ever thought about the problem of prices, but in terms of prices, it is precisely a major issue related to the national economy and people's livelihood, which must be solved! Qi Suiliang is a little embarrassed, he belongs to the big bureaucrat, the treatment of officials in the Tang Dynasty was excellent, his income is not low, and as a big bureaucrat, although he also cares about the livelihood of the people, but he has not paid attention to the price, the servants at home have not told him this kind of thing, and he goes out to drink and have fun, some people rush to pay him, and even if he pays himself, throw out a few strings casually, the store still dares to say to him: "Master, you haven't given enough?" Who would dare to say that!
I really haven't paid attention to this problem before, if this little boy hadn't written it, maybe he wouldn't have paid attention to this problem for at least a few years in his life, unless it was a disaster year and there were profiteers hoarding Juqi, then he could still pay attention to it!
The pig's conscience was ashamed, he stretched out his hand, unprecedentedly, and patted Qiu Renjie on the shoulder, and didn't say anything, but the meaning is obvious, boy, you have a very good ability, this poem is well done, people, , make people's eyes shine!
I have to admit that Wang Ping'an is not wrong, this poem really stings his eyes, and he is a talent!
The examiners looked at this side and thought in their hearts: "Okay, this candidate named Qiu Renjie, his paper must not be dropped." Of course, we don't dare to fall behind! ”
Pray Suiliang put his hands behind his back and slowly walked back to the main hall? Seeing him come back, Wang Ping'an said: "Lord Pig, how are your eyes, you need to go down to show you, if you are stabbed by a strong light, you have to take medicine in time!" ”
Zhu Suiliang waved his hand and said, "What are you kidding, this is the examination room, don't make fun." He sat down and was silent for a long time, then said, "It's really different!" ”
The waiter of the Ministry of Rites hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, yes." Among the current subjects, the following officials expected to be good, and this should be the best. ”
Wang Ping'an said with a smile: "How many people who are admitted to the Jinshi have no real materials, maybe when the papers are batched, they will be better!" ”
Zhu Suiliang and the waiter of the Ministry of Rites shook their heads together, it was not that they didn't see the exam papers of other scholars, whether there was a better appearance, didn't they count it in their hearts.
The three of them sat down again, and Zhu Suiliang said: "Regarding the prices in Chang'an, the old man really didn't pay much attention to it before, the price of grain, meat, and clothing materials, has it risen a lot?" ”
The waiter of the Ministry of Rites shook his head and said, "To tell the truth, the lower officials haven't paid much attention to it. The affairs of the state river. How could a woman in my own family take care of the young, and when it comes to clothes, "the lower officials have a few pieces all year round, and they wear them in turn, and then talk about sewing and mending, how can the lower officials worry about it!" ”
Wang Ping'an said: "The rise will definitely rise, the New Year, everyone has spare money, usually reluctant to spend, will spend a flower during the New Year." The things on the market will naturally go with the market, and after this period of time, it is estimated that it will fall. ”
Zhu Suiliang heaved and said: "Those who have spare money say what they do, what they want to say is that they have no spare money, and the price of food and clothing has risen, how did they spend their year?" What we need to pay attention to is their lives. Don't forget, how the former Sui perished. How did the thieves all over the place appear, but there is a mouthful of surplus food at home, who is willing to rebel! The waiter of the Ministry of Rites nodded hurriedly and said: "Yes, yes, take history as a mirror, this is what the emperor often says." ”
Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "That's not necessarily, wasn't Brother Li Yuan also one of the thieves, and his family's surplus grain may not be less!" ”
He didn't dare to say this, it was a big rebellion, and he could only nod his head and agree.
After talking for a long time, it was time to close the roll. Suddenly, a person walked in quickly from outside the house, it was a eunuch, this eunuch slipped in by the wall, as if he did not want to attract attention, and the official here did not squint, pretending not to see him. The eunuch slipped all the way into the main hall, saluted the king and them, and said, "Three lords, the emperor is here, outside!" ”
Wang Ping'an and the three of them got up together, thinking in their hearts: "Why is the emperor here?" ”
Prayer Sui Liang hurriedly said: "Then you have to take it quickly,"
The eunuch hurriedly said: "Don't don't, don't make a noise, the emperor said, his old man is afraid of disturbing the scholars' answers, so he has to wait for the exam to be finished, after receiving the papers, his old man will come in, and the three adults will go out to see him, don't make a noise, this is what the emperor ordered." ”
Wang Ping'an and the three agreed in unison, dressed up, and walked out of the main hall together, Zhu Suiliang beckoned to a tester Wailang, and said: "As soon as the hour comes, immediately collect the papers, don't seal them first, take them directly to the main hall, and put them on the top." ”
The three of them went out of the Imperial History Mansion, and as soon as they went out, they saw the imperial chariot parked at the door, while Li Shimin got out of the car and stood at the door with his eyes closed, as if he was basking in the sun.
In the distance, many people looked at the emperor, most of them were the retinue of the scholars, waiting outside the door, waiting for the scholars to come out after the exam. These people were all excited, they didn't want to wait and wait, but they waited for the emperor to come, and to see the emperor so closely, but it was the first time, it was a great blessing.
Zhu Suiliang took the lead, and the three of them knelt down together to welcome the holy car, Li Shimin raised his hand and said, "It's not in the court, so it's exempt." Have you ever inspected the examination room at the start of today's course? Is there a talented person? ”
In order to show that he attached great importance to the scholars, Li Shimin personally came to the examination room to inspect after dealing with the government affairs, and did not bring other ministers, only he came alone.
Zhu Suiliang straightened his waist and said: "If you go back to the emperor, the ministers have gone to inspect the examination room, and when it comes to talents, there are indeed a few" One of them is the most "the most eye-catching, and the poems he has made are very impressive." ”
Li Shimin sighed and said, "Yes." Who is this man, but a famous scholar? ”
Whether Qiu Renjie was noticed by the emperor or not, Sui Liang didn't know, but he estimated that he didn't pay attention to the people he hadn't paid attention to, and the emperor couldn't have paid attention to them. He replied, "It's a young man." He is still less than 20 years old, his name is Qiu Renjie, and he is a candidate for the Jinshi subject, not a celebrity. ”
"Qiu Renjie? Is that the scholar who followed Wang Ping'an to Guanwai? Li Shimin asked casually, seemingly casually.
The waiter of the Ministry of Rites is nothing, and he is okay with Suiliang, but Ji Ping'an was shocked, the emperor can actually remember this? In terms of events, he not only mentioned Qiu Renjie on the list of meritorious service in Zheliu County, but even mentioned Qiu Renjie when he was differentiating smallpox, but he was also mentioned in a large number of names, just to add some weight to Qiu Renjie, not really to get any reward, but he didn't expect Li Shimin to remember this name.
Wang Ping'an didn't intend to hide it, and said: "Exactly, he is indeed Weichen's right and left hand, and Weichen saw that he understood everything, so he vigorously cultivated." It can be regarded as a selection of materials for the country. "I didn't dare to say that Qiu Renjie was my brother.
Li Shimin hummed, didn't ask deeply, and said, "Since you all say that he has some talents. I'll take a look at his article later. Eye-catching? It's a chic word, too.
After a while, an examiner came out of it, full of sweat, presumably he also knew that the emperor was coming, and as soon as he came out, he knelt down and said: "Chen Qisheng, this exam is over, the papers have been collected, and the scholars learned that the emperor was coming, and they were waiting in the courtyard to take over!" ”
The emperor was waiting outside, and even if he didn't say anything, it was impossible for the scholars not to know that they had already lined up in the courtyard under the organization of the examiner Wailang, waiting to see the driver.
As soon as Li Shimin entered the courtyard, he was full of scholars who had boarded the courtyard, and knelt down together, long live the mountain!
Li Shimin smiled and gently instructed the scholars to rest well, pay attention not to get sick, and answer the questionnaire in the next two days. The scholars were grateful. Thanking them loudly, everyone felt that they were taken seriously, and the emperor himself came to see them. And in order not to affect their exams, they actually stood outside the door and waited, such a bright monarch, it is difficult to find it for eternity!
After some encouragement, Li Shimin ordered the soldiers to disperse and go back to their residences to rest and eat. He went into the main hall and asked the officials to take the papers. He wanted to take a look first.
The officials were instructed by Zhu Suiliang to put the test paper of Jinshike on the top, and the first test paper was Qiu Renjie's, which was to keep the king safe. The test paper that is seen first is always taken advantage of, in case it is placed below, the emperor will not read it anymore after reading a few copies, then he will not be able to see Qiu Renjie's, and he will not be able to shoot Wang Ping'an's sycophant.
Li Shimin picked up Qiu Renjie's exam paper, read it up and down, didn't say anything, put it aside, and looked at the bottom again. Wang Ping'an, Zhi Suiliang and others stood with their hands down and accompanied the emperor to read the papers.
Seeing the second test paper, I don't know whose it was, Li Shimin actually showed a smile on his face, nodded, and said, "Yes, this poem is very literary." ”
After reading another one, Li Shimin nodded again and praised it. Then look down again. But he didn't praise the third one, and there was less smile on his face, and the fourth and fifth sheets, all the time, I kept reading the ** chapter, his smile disappeared completely, and he never praised it again, and the degree of reading the volume is getting faster and faster!
After reading twenty or thirty sheets, Li Shimin no longer watched them one by one, but flipped them up quickly, turned over forty or fifty sheets, no longer turned them, pushed the stacks of rolls aside, and picked up the first one, that is, Qiu Renjie's, and looked at it carefully.
