As before, Lu Chengqi pretended to be an examiner again, wearing an official uniform, and slowly walked into the Jiying Palace. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Lu Chengqi chose the right time, he accurately calculated the time for the scholars to read the questions, and then after they put down the pen, he stepped into the Jiying Palace. Now it is different from the past, and some of these scholars recognize his face, and if they make a noise, the order of the examination will be chaotic. Only when the gods do not know and the ghosts go in unconsciously can they have a surprising effect.

In fact, Lu Chengqi guessed correctly. These scholars are all working hard to write straight, where do they care about who is patrolling the exam?

Of course, there are also many people who are suspicious. Generally speaking, the questions of the palace examination are written in the tone of the emperor, where can it be so rough and ask questions directly? This straightforward question is similar to the previous concurrent scriptures; And the questions during the provincial examination are more like the questions of the palace examination.

It's strange in my heart, but I can't "please" at this moment, and I can only hold my stomach if I have any questions. Fortunately, this question is simple, and it doesn't matter if you can't "ask", just answer how you want!

It's just that some smart scholars have pondered it, more than 500 elites are here, how could the emperor ask such a simple question? If everyone answers the same questions, how can you tell if it's high? It must be something else! Combined with the new deal, in fact, it is about to come out, the little emperor is defending himself, hoping that someone will support him! As a result, these "smart people" began to pretend to be smart, and with a stroke of the pen, all the flattering tones came out.

Lu Chengqi slowly shuttled among the scholars, slowly looking at their scrolls, and found that most of them were very different from his own thoughts. But think about it, these scholars, where do they have any political consciousness, most of them still live in their own fantasies, thinking that the world is like this. In fact, officialdom and politics are completely different from what they think. With their political consciousness, it would be good to be able to flatter.

"Poor, unsatisfactory, isn't there anyone who can satisfy me?" Lu Chengqi inspected it and felt disappointed. If Dashun's elite is like this, he really has nothing to say. "It seems that we are really going to start universal education, but this money is a big problem, no wonder with the wealth of the Song Dynasty, it can't popularize education......" Lu Chengqi couldn't help but think about it again, how to carry out compulsory education.

Teaching and educating people is the most important thing for a country. If a country, most of which are illiterate, the country is ignorant. Once someone is bewitched, they become accomplices, and they don't know what they're doing. Lu Chengqi believes that reading is to improve one's self-cultivation, which is very close to Confucius's educational philosophy. However, Lu Chengqi did not agree with the idea of blindly respecting the ancients, and admired that today's people have their own ideas. If a nation's thinking fails to keep pace with the times, it will only gradually fall behind. This is also the reason why the Tang and Song dynasties stood on top of the world, and gradually fell behind after the Ming Dynasty. Look at the Tang and Song dynasties, the style of writing is open, and all kinds of ideas emerge in endlessly. Looking at the Ming and Qing dynasties, the eight strands of literature imprisoned the mind, even if there were occasional people, it was just a flash in the pan and did not form a large-scale impact. The most regrettable thing is that Wang Yangming learned in his heart, and such a good doctrine was abandoned by the world. Of course, it is also related to the imperial court system and the imperial examination system at that time, and others cannot be blamed.

Lu Chengqi knows that the importance of the imperial examination lies in winning scholars for the country, and the other is to lead the ideological trend. He admires Guanxue because the main purpose of Guanxue is to worry about the country and the people, which is worthy of praise. And this impact is minimal, because there are still too few people who follow Guan Xue. But if through the imperial examination, the reputation of Guanxue will be resounded all over the world, then the status of Guanxue will be established. It is not possible for one to be alone, Lu Chengqi can respect Guanxue, and naturally he can also respect other disciplines. I can't say, he is also going to find someone to be the representative of the mind and develop the "unity of knowledge and action" of the mind!

Inspected the examination room aimlessly, shook his head slightly, this move fell into Wen Yanbo's eyes, and he was also very puzzled: "This provincial yuan is Zhang Zai, but the emperor is still dissatisfied?" Sure enough, the Sacred Heart is unfathomable! ”

There were five hundred and seven scholars, all of whom were concentrated in the Jiying Palace, and Lu Chengqi couldn't find a few familiar faces for a while, so he went to the apse door with no interest. It was at this moment that an official who knew the age of the Mandate of Heaven caught his attention. If you look at his official uniform, he is a third-grade member, and compared with Wen Yanbo, it is not much worse.

Lu Chengqi quietly walked over and said to him: "This Qing family, please take the opportunity to speak." ”

The official had doubts, but he still followed Lu Chengqi out.

Outside the Jiying Palace, Lu Chengqi dared to speak at a normal volume: "This Qing family is very faceless!" ”

The official's heart was exquisite, how could he not know Lu Chengqi's identity, and immediately bowed, and then said slowly: "Cai Xiang, the scholar of the Ming Palace, see Your Majesty!" ”

Lu Chengqi was stunned for a moment, and then came back to his senses: "It turned out to be Cai Qing, no wonder, no wonder!" Cai Qing played before, and the beggar bones returned to his hometown, but he was unwell? ”

Cai Xiang sighed: "Don't hide it from Your Majesty, because the old mother in the family is sick, and as a son of man, he should serve his mother for a hundred years and return to old age!" ”

Lu Chengqi praised: "I can also understand the common feelings of people. It's just the way of loyalty and filial piety, I still advocate putting state affairs first, and the imperial court is the time to employ people, why did Cai Qing retreat bravely? ”

Cai Xiang smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty rejected the minister's performance, and added the vassal as a scholar of the Duanming Palace, is he afraid that the minister will return to his hometown with a crown?" ”

Lu Chengqi made no secret of it: "Cai Qing has great talent, and I have heard of it." Since he took office as the transfer envoy of Fujian Road, and then learned about the affairs of Quanzhou, Fuzhou, Kaifeng and Hangzhou, he has been well-known about morality, prudent and clear, fair, diligent and slack, and I am very relieved. If there are more Cai Qing in the imperial court, why do I have to work hard? ”

"Your Majesty has an overreputation, how can the minister be able to bear this praise?" Cai Xiang's heart sank, knowing that it would be impossible for this little emperor to let him go in a short period of time. Although he was incorruptible, he could see the policies of the imperial court more clearly than anyone else. The little emperor is ambitious, and he wants to become an emperor through the ages, comparable to the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, which is a well-known thing in the world. But the little emperor's actions were too big, and he had deeply hurt the civil official group. The energy of the civil official group, the little emperor may be a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, not at all. But Cai Xiang can see it clearly, the power gathered by this civil official is enough to influence the world. Cai Xiang used the excuse of going home to serve his mother, which is indeed the case, but more often than not, he wants to avoid this political disaster and avoid getting burned. never thought that the little emperor didn't have the heart to let him go at all, but instead transferred him back to Chang'an City with a piece of holy will. It's really smart but it was mistaken by cleverness, and if you miss a move, you will lose all the games.

In fact, Lu Chengqi's mind is also very simple, this Cai Xiang is a very famous figure in history. History will never be faked, so when Cai Xiang made a twist, he entered Lu Chengqi's eyes. Adhering to the principle of preferring to kill mistakes and not letting go, Lu Chengqi rejected his performance and transferred him back to Chang'an.

"Hehe, if you want to run, it's not that simple!" Lu Chengqi thought triumphantly in his heart, "If you run away, I will be a reborn person in vain!" (To be continued.) )
