Suncheonfu *******

The heat of midsummer had cracked the fields outside Guo. The wheat sprouts are thin and rolled, and it is difficult to stretch out. It has been three months since the release of the list today, but the new science and technology is still a hot topic. On the fifteenth day of the third month, Gongsheng entered the temple for the palace examination. This year's Dingyuan, Bangyan, and Tanhua are also strange to say, and they are not the best in the examination. Instead, a few little-known nobodies. Even the banquet of the virtuous residence cannot be shirked without money, which is inevitably a little unbelievable.

Although the palace examination was presided over by the emperor, it was impossible for the emperor to read it personally. Generally, there are people trusted by the emperor in the court to rank, and when the arrangement is over, the emperor will look at it, and then the eunuch will approve the red, so the emperor is lazy, and the eunuch has great power, such as Wei Zhongxian. And Zhu Youzhen is also diligent, he took back the batch of red, everything is done personally, it is said that the three tripings are personally transferred by the emperor, which is a little confusing.

There is only one question in the palace examination, and that is the current policy. Just like taking a civil servant exam, whether it is the township test or the meeting test, it is all a screening role, and some crooked melons and cracked dates and improper thinking are eliminated first, and the rest are orthodox quasi-civil servants.

But to be an official, it is far from that simple. After passing the palace examination, the champion was awarded the Hanlin Academy for revision, and the list of eyes and tanhua was awarded for editing. The rest of the Jinshi who passed the examination are called Hanlin Yuan Shu Jishi. Those who pass the examination after three years will be awarded the editors and reviewers of the Hanlin Academy, and the rest will be distributed to the directors of each department, or they will be preferentially appointed by the county, which is called the Sanguan. People from the Shuji scholars were promoted quickly, and after Yingzong, the imperial court formed a situation in which non-Jinshi did not enter the Hanlin, and non-Hanlin did not enter the cabinet.

Some people are just an alternate magistrate all their lives, that is, they have been a substitute all their lives. This kind of person has no support in the court, his family background is not noble, and his talent is not brilliant, so it is easy to be forgotten.

"Well, I really can't figure it out. Then Han Zhong and Li Zhongde, how can He De be able to pick up Dingyuan and Bangyan? It's incredible. And that Su Zhihua, can it also be called Sanjia Dingyuan? I think it's the worst of the three first-class. ”

While shaking the fan slowly with the Kejinshi, he said, "Who said it wasn't." When I tried this, he was still behind me. I didn't expect that this time the salted fish turned over and entered Hanlin. ”

"Eh, Brother Fang, this time he has won the second class, he will rise day by day, and the day is just around the corner." Seeing Fang Yiru coming, the two of them congratulated each other. Fang Yiru's face was not happy, the spring will be yuan, like a bag to take things, I thought that this time the champion of high school, it would also be a glorious lintel, but I didn't expect to lose in the palace test.

"You haven't heard of it, if it weren't for the Holy Lord's hand-picking, the champion this time would be Brother Fang. I didn't expect a moth to come out halfway, alas, creation makes people. Brother Fang, I really feel sorry for you. ”

Fang Yiru's hand is always hanging, the injury of the previous year has not healed, and this time he will use his left hand to write for him. He smiled, shook his head, and said, "Others have their own strengths, and I can't wait for them." Fang Yiru suddenly saw someone waving to him outside the window, his expression was stunned, and he hurriedly ran down.

"Alas, Brother Fang. A few more drinks, I'll have a poetry meeting later, just waiting for you to be in the limelight! Alas...... Fang ......" several people shook their heads and sighed: "The first class is not here, the second class is gone, this banquet is ......" The person shook his head, not knowing what to say.

"By the way, speaking of the poetry meeting, is that Qinyuan Spring Emperor Song really filled in by Lord Yang? Now that Jinling is all over the city, the six Shangshu are full of praise for this word, calling it Su Xin in the dynasty, which is rare. A Jinshi from Jinling heard this.

Liu Zijun, who was born in the top three, came over and said, "I waited for what I heard with my own ears that night, how could it be fake?" It's this Han Zhong, since his grandfather died, his family has fallen in the middle of the road, and the title of the gold list this time is boring at home, and he can't even see me. ”

"Oh? Brother Liu knows that Han Zhong? ”

"I know, when Lord Yang wrote the words of the emperor that night, he was also present. The paper is collected, but it is mediocre, I didn't expect to be able to give him a high school champion. Don't mention it, don't mention it, alas, isn't that Fang Chuanyu? Why did you leave? Liu Zijun saw Fang Yiru's figure leaving in a hurry from the window, and sighed: "These days, there are so many weirdos." ”

……

The hot wind blew people drowsy, and the light dust accumulated on the stone bricks was in dire need of a shower of rain. However, it didn't. The carriage fell in the shade, and the occupants did not come out. The coachman walked at the entrance of the alley, holding a leather bag to fill with water. Fang Yiru glanced at the coachman and nodded.

"Master Fang."

Fang Yiru said respectfully: "Don't dare, don't dare." "The coachman is the housekeeper of Shangshu Mansion, and this time it is rare to catch the carriage, and the sweat is dripping. wiped his sweat and said, "Make." has entered the top three, and they are all officials. Congratulations, congratulations. ”

"Shangshu-sama is inside?"

The coachman nodded and said, "Inside." Fang Yiru nodded and turned into the alley. There was no daylight, and the alley was a little shady. Fang Yiru bowed through the curtain and said, "Student Fang Yiru, meet the teacher." ”

"Hmph. Yiru, you are now a protégé of the Son of Heaven, how can you perform the disciple ceremony again? In your high school, the old man has not personally come to congratulate him, so he can only pass by the road, and it is inconvenient to go in here, so I will meet here. ”

Fang Yiru saluted again and said: "Where, where, the students should come to the house to thank the teacher, I was afraid that the teacher would be embarrassed, so I didn't come to the door to see him, and I hope the teacher will not be surprised." The old man's laughter came from the curtain, and he said, "Thoughtful, good." To be a human being is to be calm. In this imperial examination, have you been convinced by a second-class passenger? ”

"Convincing."

"Oh? Are you really convinced? The old man's voice was full of doubt. Fang Yiru nodded and said, "I am indeed convinced." The three current policies directly refer to commercial taxation and agricultural affairs, and they are convinced. ”

"Yiru said this against his will, it seems that you are not convinced." As soon as these words fell, there was no movement inside and outside the carriage, and it seemed to fall into a tacit contemplation. Finally, the silk wind came, Fang Yiru exhaled with a closed breath, and landed heavily on his upper lip. "According to the dossier, the student was originally listed at the head of the case, and later the saint circled it, and it became a legend."

"Yiru, sticking to the first and second grades, it is useless. What you have to understand is why those three people are appreciated by the Holy One, and why your article, although it is not a major offense, is reasonable and reasonable, and the writing is fluent, and it is the head of the case on the side of the Scribe, why it has become a preacher when it comes to the Holy One. ”

"Please also ask the teacher to teach me."

Lao Shangshu's voice came from inside the car: "What you wrote about recovering the lost land and suppressing the riot is indeed not unreasonable, but it is contrary to Ling Hebo's construction, so it has not entered the eyes of the Holy Lord." ”
