Chapter 861: Shoufu Feng Jing

In the Wende Palace, almost all of them are human spirits, and there is no simple goods. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Even Wang Anshi, who has a tendon in the official history, has learned to observe the world after being restricted, and no longer takes it for granted.

Not to mention the rest, all of them have a shining halo, and since they took the Jinshi exam, they have always been the darlings and leaders of civil officials. If they weren't really talented, Lu Chengqi wouldn't have let them enter the cabinet easily.

What is the Cabinet?

In fact, it is the emperor's staff, who specializes in giving advice to the emperor, not only to have talent, but also to be an all-rounder, the so-called astronomical geography, astrological divination, water conservancy and farming, maritime trade and commercial ...... You have to know something.

Human energy is limited, and of course it is impossible to be proficient in everything. But at least you have to know what's going on, and not make jokes. In this way, the experience is important. Among the few people selected by Lu Chengqi, the vast majority of them were demoted, and even if they were not demoted, they were really children of poor families, living in the market all year round. Only such a courtier can be well-informed and will not see a camel as a swollen horse.

It is precisely because everyone has great talents that those who can lead them must be able to serve the people with prestige, and only then can they learn to be able to serve the people.

There are many cattle in Dashun, but none of them seem to dare to pat their chests and guarantee that they can lead these eleven bullish cabinet ministers.

However, Lu Chengqi is also a ghost, and he actually threw this problem to the newly appointed cabinet ministers, and asked them to recommend a minister who can serve the public with talent and prestige to serve as the first assistant of this cabinet.

This move is indeed ruthless, and it also has the essence of politics. Aren't you very good, so who do you think is the best in your own hearts? Say it, and I'll let him be your head, and if you don't accept it in the future, don't forget what you said today.

After this person was selected, Lu Chengqi was also relaxed. Why? Lu Chengqi only needs to manage this one person, he can manage the following eleven, and the cabinet will be able to operate completely. Just like a country, the emperor cannot directly lead everyone, but as long as he controls the most critical people, it is equivalent to controlling the entire country.

It's just that in this way, these eleven people are in trouble, looking at each other, and they really don't know who to choose.

Those who are talented and learned, Weide is not enough to convince the public; There are Weide, and they despise it for "not learning and not knowing", which is difficult.

In the end, Sima Guang, who was upright, stood out and said: "Your Majesty, the minister recommends one person." ”

"Oh, Sima Qing is upright, and the person he recommends must be competent, and let's talk to me?" Lu Chengqi was also a little surprised, he originally thought that other old foxes would recommend a person who could make peace with the mud, but unexpectedly, the first person to respond was Sima Guang, who was known for his loyalty.

In fact, Lu Chengqi thought a little wrong, even if they wanted to recommend courtiers, they would turn around and recommend them, such as colluding to recommend a few people who everyone was dissatisfied with, and then recommend someone who could be with the mud. So everyone thinks, well, better than the previous ones, it's him. It's like "Guan Pu" (the most popular gambling at this time), who will show their hole cards all at once? It's just that this time there is almost no time to prepare, and even if they want to find some means, it will be too late. In addition, the current emperor is becoming more and more difficult to fool, they have just stepped into the cabinet, and they are afraid of provoking fire, so they can only keep silent.

Only the upright man Sima Guang, his mind is really a tendon, as long as it is good for the country, he will not care so much, and he will say it again, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, the minister recommended the bachelor of the Duanming Palace, the Longtu Pavilion is to be systematized, and the Jixian Academy compiles Feng Jing!" ”

"Feng Jing? How can this person be the head of the cabinet? ”

Speaking of which, Lu Chengqi really hadn't heard of this person's name.

"I don't know if Your Majesty knows about 'mistaking Feng Jing for Ma Liang'?" Sima Guang was also stunned, with Feng Jing's reputation, there were still people who didn't know. But the person in front of you is the emperor, he doesn't know, and you can't scold him! Depressed, he could only tell Feng Jing's deeds.

It turned out that Feng Jing was a bull, even much louder than Su Shi's reputation. Of course, that's just at this point. Feng Jing is regarded as a Wenqu star, why? Because he is a big bull who is "even in the middle of the three yuan"! Feng Jing has been gifted and intelligent since he was a child, eager to learn and motivated, and never forgets. In the township examination, the general examination, and the palace examination held from August of the eighth year of Yuan Shou to March of the ninth year, he was in the limelight for a while.

You must know that the imperial examination at this time can be described as a real single-plank bridge crossed by thousands of troops, and it is good to be able to win, not to mention the three yuan in the company? In the official history, in the history of the imperial examination from the Tang Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty for more than 1,300 years, only thirteen people can even win three yuan, and an average of one in 100 years, Feng Jing is one of them, do you say he is powerful?

Feng Jing's ability to "three yuan and first" is indeed very difficult. Participating in the imperial examination not only has to deal with the examination papers, but also has to deal with the corruption and malpractices of the court officials, which requires a lot of additional wisdom, which is incomparable to the college entrance examination in later generations. The palace examination is an examination presided over by the emperor himself in the imperial court, and whoever wins the champion has a bright future. Feng Jing participated in the palace test, and the killer was Shi Butong, the nephew of the minister Zhang Yaozuo. And Zhang Yaozuo was a powerful minister at that time, he was determined to win, he must put the champion hat on his nephew's head, and he did a lot of tricks and feet as early as before the exam: he bribed the invigilator and the marking officials with a lot of money, and asked them to take Shi Butong in the first place.

In order to prevent other candidates from taking the lead to win the championship, Zhang Yaozuo was going to "shoot the first bird", and he asked the monk to predict who the champion was? The monk said that it would be out of the Feng family. Zhang immediately found the landing officer of the examination institute and instructed that if there was a registration with the surname Feng, he would not be allowed to be included in the admission roster and the examination list. Trying to stifle competitors in the registration process. Feng Jing got the news, pondered hard, and decided to change his name to apply for the exam, he moved the two points of the word "Feng" to the side of the word "Jing", and "Feng Jing" became "Ma Liang". As soon as the results of the palace examination were announced, "Ma Liang" ranked first in high school and became the champion. In the court, "Ma Liang" won the champion, but among the people, everyone knew that it was "Feng Jing" who won the champion.

Of course, this is just a folk rumor, the real situation is that when Feng Jing participated in the palace examination, he was already a high school champion, and he was usually going to pass on his roll call. However, the official who took the roll call was already old and faint, and he misjudged the two points of "Feng", so he shouted the name of "Ma Liang" but no one answered. Originally, when the roll call was announced, it was normal to deliberately let the officials who took the roll call read their names to the emperor several times, but this "Ma Liang" was called more than a dozen times, but no one responded. Later, Emperor Yuan Shou said suspiciously: "Is there no such person?" ”

At this time, Feng Jing generously stepped out of the crowd and replied weakly in front of the emperor: "My name is Feng Jing." (To be continued.) )
