On November 8 of the first year of Jianning, Liu Hong asked the top 100 candidates of Kaoenke in the main hall of Deyang.

This time, Enke's test paper was sealed by the eunuch in the palace, that is, the candidate's name.

The Cabinet appoints officials from the DPRK and China to check whether the examination papers are marked, and if so, they are reviewed separately.

If there is no mark, it will be reviewed by the outstanding students of Taixue and the simple family of the palace councilor.

In the end, the best 100 people were selected to participate in the palace examination, so as to rank the top three.

Outside the main hall of Deyang, the little yellow door shouted loudly, "Pass on the Enke candidates." ”

"Chuan Enke candidate."

"Chuan Enke candidate."

After three summons in a row, Liu Hong's will reached the ears of the candidates.

As soon as the candidates heard Liu Hong's summons, they hurriedly tidied up their clothes, and then slowly marched towards the Deyang Hall under the guidance of Xiao Huangmen.

While walking, I listened to a few small yellow doors explain the etiquette of meeting the emperor.

Most of the candidates are children of poor families, and being able to get the emperor's reception already makes the candidates very nervous, coupled with Xiao Huangmen's almost intimidating reminder, it makes the candidates even more frightened.

There were even a few people who were already pale and in a cold sweat.

A few little yellow men smiled secretly when they saw this, but the emperor said it himself, if he saw himself and others, he took the initiative to make some money, even if there was only one eldest son, he had to remind him.

and he that does not have money is allowed to threaten with all his might.

Although I don't know the emperor's intentions, but if you can get money and play prestige, how can these little yellow doors not do it?

In fact, this palace examination has begun as soon as these candidates enter the palace, and those who enter the palace and watch around are all rude people, who are not of great use, and the secondary.

The second is these little yellow doors, those who have not given the little yellow doors money are people who do not know how to change, they can be used, but they cannot be used. After all, officials don't know how to be flexible, and what big things will they do if they can only go on a rampage?

Today's Han Dynasty is not the time when the heroes of the late Han Dynasty competed for hegemony, as long as they were talented. Today's Han is in ruins, and what Liu Hong needs is a person like Jia Xu who is both talented and knows how to be an official. Honest Wei Zheng? Liu Hong doesn't need to.

Of course, it doesn't mean that if you don't give money to Xiaohuangmen, you will give a low evaluation. But if under the intimidation of Xiao Huangmen, the appearance is lost, it means that this person is not useful.

Even if you don't even have the courage, what can you do if you are so talented?

After a while, all the candidates came to the outside of the Deyang Palace.

I saw an official in court clothes walking over, pointing to the few candidates who were pale and in a cold sweat, and said, "Your Majesty has a will, wait to go back!" Waiting for the imperial court to appoint. ”

Those people were the children of the Han family, and when they heard this, they opened their mouths, and then they whispered "No" with a pale face

Before seeing the emperor, a few people were sent out, which made the candidates even more worried.

The official pointed to a few more people, and said, "You are the last in line, don't pollute Your Majesty's eyes." ”

One of the candidates was a child of a middle-class family, and he snorted coldly, "Who are you?" Why insult us? ”

"Who is so-and-so?" The official pointed to himself and said lightly, "Yuan Kui, a certain great Honglu, why did you insult you?" Hehe, when you entered the palace, you looked around, without observing etiquette at all, and it was already Your Majesty's grace before you were sent out of the palace, and you dared to ask so-and-so, why did you insult you? It's really the official laughing. ”

Da Honglu, one of the Nine Qings. The Yuan family, the Yuan family of two or three dukes.

Such a big name made all the candidates feel surprised, Jiuqing! That's a high-ranking official with two thousand stones! It can be said that it is the top of the Han!

And although the Yuan family has been implicated in many people for the crime of treason, its foundation is still there, and it is still the representative of the Runan family.

If you want to enter the officialdom, you must not offend your superiors, especially the officials of the DPRK and China who have prominent family backgrounds.

But now these candidates have offended the Yuan family, one of the Nine Qings, before they have obtained an official position, how can this not make them panic.

Then the candidates walked to the back of the candidates.

As soon as several of the candidates heard Yuan Kui's name, they were eye-catching, not because of Yuan Kui's name, but because of Yuan Kui's surname.

Today is already the eighth day of the first lunar month, and the events of the second day of the junior high school have spread throughout the entire Jingshi and Sili regions, and even spread throughout the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty at a rapid speed.

These people are the few people who understand, and today Yuan Kui made this scene, not for anything else, but to show loyalty to the emperor.

After all, his own brother had just been killed for rebellion, and he became a pawn of the emperor to appease the courtiers.

If he Yuan Kui doesn't show his loyalty, then he won't be able to last long!

After all, since Xu Xu was exiled, Da Honglu's affairs have been in charge of his deputy.

If Liu Hong reveals a little dissatisfaction with Yuan Kui, then Yuan Kui will soon be hollowed out.

Thinking of this, the men smiled slightly, then glanced at each other, bowed their heads and remained silent, waiting for the summons.

After Yuan Kui expressed his loyalty to Liu Hong in front of the candidates, he walked back to the main hall.

After a while, Li Hao shouted in the main hall, "Candidates enter the hall." ”

Immediately, all the candidates walked into the main hall of Deyang in accordance with the order arranged by Yuan Kui.

After the candidates walked into the main hall of Deyang, the candidates who walked in front lowered their heads, counted the steps they took, and when they walked to the front of the center, they knelt down on the ground and said, "Meet Your Majesty." ”

The candidates in the first row were twenty steps away from Liu Hongshang, while the candidates in the last row were no more than three steps away from the entrance of the main hall.

Liu Hong glanced at the candidates kneeling below, and was attracted by the three people in the first row at a glance, one of them had the temperament of a general, the other had an introverted temperament, giving people the feeling of an elder, and the other was gentle and elegant, quite Confucian.

Seeing this, Liu Hong smiled and said, "Where is Cheng Li?" ”

After the restrained man raised his head, he quickly lowered his head and said, "Grass people, Cheng Li." ”

Liu Hong remembered the results of Jin Yiwei's investigation, and said, "Zhongde (Cheng Li's character), I heard that he often dreamed that he was in Mount Tai, holding the image of Taishan with both hands? ”

Cheng Li didn't know why the emperor suddenly asked about this, and he suddenly felt uneasy that he was talking about this matter everywhere.

But when the emperor asked, he couldn't help but say it, so Cheng Li said cautiously, "The grass people seem to have dreamed of this image, but when the grass people hear the image of the dream, it is not true, it is not clear." ”

Liu Hong was stunned when he heard this, and immediately understood that Cheng Li was afraid that he would blame him!

So he smiled and said, "Zhongde doesn't have to be frightened, I just want to give you a name!" ”

Cheng Yu hurriedly kowtowed when he heard this, and said with a happy face, "Please give your name Your Majesty." ”

In ancient times, he could get the name of the emperor, this word is a great honor, and now the emperor wants to give the name to the grass people, how can Cheng Li not be excited?

"Cheng Yu, how's that?"

Cheng Li, oh, no, it was Cheng Yu who knew why the emperor had just asked him about the dream, and then thought that the emperor still admired him very much, otherwise how could he go to such great lengths?

I think it was my own article that got into the eyes of His Majesty. Cheng Yu, who couldn't find the reason, thought secretly.

How did he know that Liu Hong valued him because of his great name in later generations, in order to prepare military rations for Cao Ying and ensure Cao Ying's conquest, in the absence of food, he used the meat of prey and human flesh to ensure the supply of grain and grass, and finally let Cao Ying win.

Although it is a great achievement, it is also criticized by others.

This is also the reason why Cheng Yunuo made a great contribution, but failed to become the third public.

However, now everything has changed, just because of Liu Hong's arrival, he can make Cheng Yu, a person who has studied the way of Legalism and officialdom, like a fish in water, and give full play to his true talents.
