Chapter 783: The Battle in the Tribute Courtyard (2)
Spring boudoir big score three, lasting nine days and seven nights, as soon as the examiner enters the Gongyuan, he must hurry into the shed, and then the shed is locked, even if there is a fire inside, the lock will not be opened, the lifter eats, drinks and sleeps all in this small shed, there is no doubt that for the weak scholars, these three written exams are not only knowledge, but also physical strength, as for the examiners, it is also not easy, they have to take turns on duty, day and night can not stop, even if you are the main exam, then you also have to schedule shifts, After staying up for nine days and seven nights, Rao is Hongqing's good body and bones that he has boiled out since he was a child practicing martial arts, and he is also tired enough, but fortunately, there was no big mistake during the exam, and this tiredness is worth it.
Nine days have passed, the candidates have to be liberated, one by one, whether they are in high spirits, or depressed, in short, they can leave the stinky tent, each to their own place, but the examiners are still not easy, but also have to mark the papers in the Gongyuan, according to the procedure, it is the district officials who will paste all the candidates' papers, such as name, place of origin and other information on behalf of the identity of the candidates, and then hand over with the examiners responsible for each district, and the examiners of each room will judge the candidates' papers, and after determining the candidates to be admitted, The examination papers of the candidates to be admitted will be sent to the main examination office, and after all the rooms have been recorded, the principal and deputy examiners and the examiners of each room will make a unified evaluation of all the test papers to be recorded, so as to determine the ranking.
"Come on, call Ding Xufeng, the examiner of the Kwai character room, and take all the dethronement papers!"
As the main exam, there is no need to judge all the candidates' test papers, in fact, the power to be recorded is in the hands of the examiner, only the papers recommended by the examiner are eligible to go to the evaluation meeting, the so-called "the examiner does not recommend, the main exam is not seen", it is said that such a procedure, Hongqing originally did not want to break such an example, for the test papers of each room submitted earlier, Hongqing has gone through it all, although there is a preference in his heart, but he never evaluates indiscriminately, and then after reading the papers handed over by the examiner of the Kwai word room, Hongqing couldn't bear it anymore, no, most of the test papers proposed by the examiner Ding Xufeng in the room were mediocre, although there were no bizarre perverse mistakes, but when it came to literary talent, they were all lackluster, one or two articles were just that, but among the twenty people who were proposed to be recorded, there were sixteen such mediocre articles, which is too much to say.
"Lord, isn't this in accordance with the rules?"
Hongqing's order had just been issued, and before the accompanying Yanxitang official could answer, he saw that He Shen, who was originally sitting on Hongqing's left hand, had already raised his head, and spoke out against it very politely.
"Rules? Hey, Heshang Shu's good students take a look at these articles, may they be eye-catching? "Bump
Speaking of rules, although Hongqing was angry, it was not easy to break the rules directly, so he threw a large stack of mediocre texts at hand to Heshen, and asked in a cold voice.
"Well, it's okay, although it's not good, but it can be eye-catching, although the top of the list is not good, and it is not bad to be listed at the bottom of the list."
Heshen himself is also a jinshi who was killed from the science field, although his character is not good, but in terms of literary affairs, he can be regarded as an outstanding person, and he looks very fast, and he will go through all the sixteen volumes in a short time, and he is obviously disgusted enough by these mediocre texts, but he does not intend to follow Hongqing's intentions, and he is stunned to talk nonsense with his eyes open.
"Really? Hey, it seems that Lord He has been an official for a long time, and I'm afraid that the article industry has lost a lot of money, this kind of nonsense is also a shame that you can say it, Lord Wang, you can also take a look. ”
Hearing Heshen so blind, Hongqing was not polite, smiled coldly, and ridiculed him without the slightest emotion, and then, regardless of how he reacted, he dragged the thick stack of test papers and handed them to Wang Mingyi.
"These texts, hehe, in general, can be read."
Wang Mingyi is a neutral faction in the court, and he doesn't want to talk more with his brothers, but he is not a stupid person who doesn't listen to things outside the window, he knows that the contradiction between Heshen and Hongqing is very deep, and he knows that Ding Xufeng, the doctor of Guozijian, is a disciple of the eighth master, and Heshen is a member of the same party, he is unwilling to intervene in the contradiction between the two powers, but the article has been read carefully, but the conclusion given is very vague, obviously planning to help the two.
"**** is to take talents for the country, you must choose the best of the best, the important thing is fairness, the king's will has been decided, go, take all the rolls of the Kwai word room in one, and listen to Ding Xufeng's court!"
Hongqing originally didn't expect Wang Mingyi, the wall-riding faction, to help him speak, as long as he didn't jump out to oppose it, and he didn't wait for Heshen to speak again, but seeing that Hongqing was already solemn, he waved his hand and gave the order again in an unquestionable tone.
"Wow!"
Hearing Hongqing say it so resolutely, the Yanxi Hall official who was waiting on the side didn't dare to ignore it, so he hurriedly answered, and led a few messengers to rush down the hall.
"Lord Wang, you are a mess, please forgive the officials for not agreeing!"
Seeing Hongqing so bent on going his own way, Heshen was anxious on the spot, there was no other, now Keheshen not only has the task of seeking fame for more than a dozen people valued by the eighth master, but he also brought a lot of private goods himself, most of them were arranged in Ding Xufeng's examination room, if Hongqing was really seen through, the consequences would be really unbearable, but Hongqing was the main exam, he had to insist, Heshen had no way to think of it except for a "solemn" protest. Love things that belong to you and me
"Yes and wrong, wait until all the texts have been checked, if the texts of the dethroned scrolls are worse than these sixteen, this king will ask for guilt at the meeting, otherwise, He Shangshu will not be able to sit with Ding Xufeng, huh?"
Hongqing was really fed up with Heshen's chirping, so he glanced at him disdainfully and coldly took one of his troops.
"The lower officials are just doing things according to the rules, and the prince's inferences are really unaffordable."
Heshen had a ghost in his heart, how could he dare to really bet with Hongqing, but he didn't want to lose his momentum, so he played a trick of secretly changing the concept.
"Then let the facts do the talking."
Hongqing was too lazy to fight a lawsuit with Heshen, and explained coldly, and then closed his eyes slightly, Heshen saw this, and the corners of his mouth moved a few times, as if he still wanted to speak, but at the end, he didn't dare to say anything hard, so he could only turn his head boringly.
"Lord Qi, all the dethroned scrolls in the Kwai character room have been brought, please ask the prince to train clearly."
A room of test papers is rated at 300 copies, of course, sometimes more, sometimes less, this is related to the number of people rushing to take the exam, like this subject, there are more than 3,600 people who come to Beijing to catch the exam, and there are more than 360 test papers in a room, each test paper has eight papers, respectively, two articles on the scriptures, five articles on history, and one more, that is, the most critical policy of taking scholars, commonly known as the eight-strand text is this thing, more than 300 copies of the paper add up to more than 200 catties, you have to use two large baskets to hold, it is not easy to lift it at all, Several errand officers hurriedly ran on such a trip, and all of them were already sweating, but no one dared to complain, and after putting the big basket on the hall, one of the Yanxi Hall officials hurriedly grabbed Hongqing's copywriting, bowed, and hurriedly reported a word.
"Well, I'm tired, I'll bring up all the rolls in turn."
Hongqing didn't talk nonsense, raised his hand falsely, and after a polite word, he immediately gave an order.
"Wow!"
Hearing Hongqing's order, the Yanxitang official didn't dare to slack off, respectfully agreed, and commanded a group of errands to sort out the test papers in the basket one by one, and then neatly placed them on Hongqing's copy. The unparalleled woman is proud of the world
"Lord Wang, take a look, what about these sixteen volumes?"
Although Hongqing is not famous for his literary talents, but in fact, his skills are profound, no side, his memory is amazing, and he almost never forgets what books he reads, and Mr. Chen is very strict with his homework, so many years, his attainments in Bagu Wen are quite deep, although there is still a lot of distance from the real grandmasters, and he can be used to take a Jinshi or something, but he is easy to hold the handle, and he is very fast to read the papers. He had gone through all the dethroned volumes of all the Kwai character rooms, selected sixteen obviously excellent volumes, and put them on Wang Mingyi's desk.
"This ......, hehe, it should be better."
Although Wang Mingyi was unwilling to get involved in the contradiction between Hongqing and Heshen, he wanted him to tell a lie with a clear conscience, but he really didn't want to, so he hesitated to give a more general answer.
"Lord Wang, as the deputy chief examiner, you have the important responsibility of selecting talents for the country, yes, yes, no, no, even what should and shouldn't be, it's all a lie, don't forget Your Majesty's entrustment to take people fairly!"
Seeing that Wang Mingyi was still there to ambush him, Hongqing didn't have a good face, his face suddenly turned solemn, and he took out the shelf of the main examiner, and reprimanded him unceremoniously.
"The prince's lesson is that the lower officials dare not say anything, and the last sixteen volumes are indeed more than one step better than the first sixteen."
was reprimanded by Hongqing like this, Wang Mingyi's old face turned red, and then he woke up that the master in front of him was not a good person, but a famous "officialdom butcher", how dare he play nonsense again, hurriedly gave his hand, and gave a clear answer with a face full of shame.
"Lord Wang, you are bullying people, you don't agree with the law, and the lower officials can't agree!"
Seeing that Wang Mingyi had made it clear that he supported Hongqing, He Shenke was anxious, and protested loudly regardless of it.
"What a big hat, hey, this king is too lazy to argue with you, come here, and it is rumored that all the examiners in each room are here to discuss the matter!"
Since each other has torn their faces, Hongqing has no intention of accommodating Heshen anymore, and after glancing at his words disdainfully, he picked up the startling wood that was resting in the corner of the copy, slapped it heavily, and broke his throat when he raised his voice......
