After Zhao Zhen sent Liang Shi and his entourage, he hurried back to the palace, he didn't know that the Liao Kingdom had fallen out because of his whim, but even if he knew, most of them would be fine.

For Zhao Zhen, the next palace exam is what he should be most concerned about. Although I don't know what kind of "talents" will be selected for those imperial examination questions, I have made a very simple square question at the end of the test paper, and only they can do this question correctly, which means that they have at least read the new content, which is also a gratifying thing.

If Zhao Zhen just relied on this Ah Q spirit to comfort himself, then the candidates in the capital would be truly happy. Without him, that is, the unreliable emperor of today's Shengshang, he finally did a reliable thing and admitted a full 130 Jinshi, which is to create a record in the Song Dynasty!

Really happy! Although they don't know if they will be selected, isn't the probability increased? As for whether there are so many official positions reserved for them in the imperial court, it can only mean that it is none of their business.

Half a month later, when it was finally time to release the list, all the candidates gathered in front of Donghua Gate, looking at the long list, all trying to find their names. Of course, all candidates naturally start from the first place, and everyone is most concerned about who will take the first place, which means that he is very likely to be the champion of this year, if nothing else, if you can remember the name first, you can hug your thighs in the future, isn't it!

However, they are destined to be pitted by today's unreliable emperor again, why not? Hehe.

This list is different from the past, and the first sentence at the beginning is: this exam is not ranked, all admitted candidates are ranked in no particular order, and the order of the list only represents the order of the admission ticket, not the candidates' results.

What does this Nima mean? What about the champions? Even if you don't have a champion, it's good to have a list to explore the flowers!

Just when everyone was about to explode the pot, the palace gate creaked open, and as usual, a team of forbidden troops rushed out first.

Xiao Shunzi then walked out, looked at the candidates who were in a mess, and shouted angrily: "What are you doing? What for? Is there any cultural person who looks like you? Quiet down for the miscellaneous family! ”

The candidates found a new target, and they didn't have time to continue to make trouble, so they all surrounded Xiao Shunzi, if it weren't for the forbidden soldiers to stop him, it is estimated that he would have to go back to the palace this time.

Xiao Shunzi enjoyed the feeling of "all eyes on the public", and when the candidates showed signs of commotion, he took out the holy decree and read it aloud: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said, all the candidates study hard in the cold window, and work hard...... Now recruit those on the list to enter the palace to listen to the announcement! Chin this! ”

The candidates on the list naturally walked into the gate of the palace happily, and those who did not have high school outside were only sad and depressed, just when everyone was about to leave, Xiao Shunzi took out another notice and asked his subordinates to post it on the notice board.

Those who originally planned to leave, when they saw the content of the notice, their hearts were alive again, although they failed in the imperial examination, but to be able to win this "system", it can be regarded as a return to their hometown!

Besides, although the system can't catch up with the science department, but not everyone has the opportunity to participate, to put it in the past, it must be recommended by the minister, this time it is picked up, the saint is merciful, and he will be considerate of us students who have traveled thousands of miles to catch the exam.

Of course, people who have this kind of mind are all people who have to meet the criteria of "having talents" on the notice, and those nerds who can only read to death are destined to have nothing to do with this.

Fake, you say? Hehe, you still think it's in the Celestial Empire! This year, if you dare to pretend that you have a specialty, even if you mix in, once you are recognized by the emperor, hehe, then wait to take off your eating stuff from your shoulder!

In order to meet with these more than 100 candidates, Zhao Zhen deliberately chose the location in the relatively wide Daqing Palace, and at this time, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces naturally had to be present. What's more, under the pretext of getting the attention of the moon near the water, he took this opportunity to get a son-in-law for his daughter to go back, which is also a traditional project, even if the emperor is not easy to say!

Zhao Zhen was still flipping through the stack of lists, according to the way the brush was written, one hundred and thirty people, how could he write a dozen pages, seeing that he was extremely annoyed, and muttered: "I should have gotten the fountain pen out earlier, this thing is too wasteful, the brush or something, let's let those who are engaged in calligraphy play!" ”

At this time, Xiao Shunzi walked in with the candidates, and they were divided into four columns in order of height. Xiao Shunzi went to Zhao Zhen's side and whispered first, and then ordered to gesture towards the candidates.

Seeing this, these candidates hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects: "Students, see the emperor!" Long live my emperor, long live, long live! ”

"Everyone, get flat!" Zhao Zhen put down the roster and said kindly.

"Emperor Xie!"

After everyone got up, Zhao Zhencai continued: "You are all outstanding performers in this imperial examination, and you are all the future pillars of my Great Song Dynasty, I hope that you can seek more benefits for my Great Song Dynasty and the people of Great Song Dynasty in the future!" Maybe you are still wondering why there is no champion and no ranking on the trial release list today. It's not that I didn't choose it, and it's not that I won't announce it until the temple is over, but I don't plan to choose this champion, to be precise, the undergraduate champion won't be produced until three years later......"

Hearing this, not only did this group of candidates not know what the situation was, but even those ministers of the DPRK and China also did not know the situation, and they exchanged their heads and ears, and came to the conclusion that the emperor was going to produce a moth again, and everyone waited and saw what happened.

Zhao Zhen is very satisfied with their performance, the emperors of previous dynasties like to do things that make their subordinates unclear about the situation, so as to show their mystery, Zhao Zhen obviously also has this hobby.

"It seems that you may not understand what I said, but it doesn't matter, I will explain it to you in detail. Before that, I would like to ask, what are you studying for? Who will answer this question? ”

Could it be that the temple examination has begun like this?

Candidates think so, in order to make a good impression, you have to rush to answer, don't you!

"Students study because they want to be loyal to the emperor and the court......"

"Students study, want to shepherd the people for the emperor......"

……

In short, everyone has made a high-sounding speech, even if some people want to be an official and make a fortune, or return to their hometown.

There was only one person who did not actively answer Zhao Zhen's question, and this person was Jia Xian, who was arranged at the back because he was taller.

Zhao Zhen saw Jia Xian when he was in Jinling, and Zhang Rou mentioned to him about Jia Xian and his second sister on the pillow, so he still remembered this guy who might become a brother-in-law with him. At this moment, Zhao Zhen saw that he was hiding behind him silently, and he was still full of worries, so he asked, "Jia Xian, why don't you answer my words?" ”

The other candidates all looked at him in amazement, muttering in their hearts: Could it be that there is something big about this person, and why does the Holy One know him?

Jia Xian could ignore the glances of others, but when he was named by the emperor, he had to stand up and respond: "Back to the emperor, your question, students don't know how to answer...... When I was a child, adults told students to study hard, become big officials in the future, and return to their hometowns to shine on the lintel. When they were older, after reading some sage books, the students thought about serving the court and giving relief to the people. Later, the students saw more and read more books, but they felt that they knew less, and their previous ambitions seemed to fade in their hearts, and they just wanted to do what they could. It was at this time that the students became obsessed with arithmetic, where they could find patterns that could be used to deduce many unknown things, and the students loved it......"

"Then why did you come to participate in the imperial examination?"

"Back to the emperor, students did not participate in the imperial examination to become officials, but after reading for so many years, they always felt some regrets in their hearts if they did not participate in the imperial examination once. Now that the exam has been completed, I implore the emperor to let the students go back to Jinling. After Jia Xian finished speaking, he knelt on the ground and waited for an answer.

I have long heard that in order to soak his sister-in-law, this product threatened to go back to others as an errand after getting a champion, he really dared to do this! If you don't let my official go, go back and revolve around the woman, and you don't usually give me face! I don't have the same knowledge as you for the sake of my wife, but it is still necessary to scare and scare.

Zhao Zhen spun around in his mind, adjusted his facial muscles, and looked at him with a flat face: "Jia Xian, you are so bold, you don't take the imperial examination seriously, do you know what kind of behavior this is?" Do you know that if you do this, you will make those who want to go to high school with their heads sharpened and shameless to live in the world? You are indirectly seeking money and killing people, you know? If you don't tell me about your ugliness today, I will get rid of your name as a jinshi in minutes. ”

Jia Xian planned to do this, and he had this preparation in his heart, and the emperor's anger was also expected by him, he lay on the ground and said very calmly: "Back to the emperor, the student actually wants to borrow your title of jinshi, so that it is easy to go back." The students heard that the queen's sister, a female streamer, had to take on the responsibility of forming the 'financial' system of our dynasty, and she was bound to deal with various forces, and she would definitely be subject to a lot of difficulties during this period, including the local government. Perhaps you don't know what 'finance' is, but to put it simply, it means that the money in everyone's hands can be used more and better and create more value.

According to the students, once this financial system is built, it will inevitably make me more active in the economy and improve the living standards of the people, which is a great thing. For students, arithmetic is indispensable in finance, which can be regarded as not only realizing their childhood dreams, but also taking into account their current interests. Moreover, the student can't bear to bear such a big responsibility for a weak woman, and is willing to share the pressure for her, if the student can have the title of jinshi, it will undoubtedly be much more convenient when dealing with local governments.

That's what the students think in their hearts, please punish the emperor! ”

Everyone was getting ready, waiting for the emperor's dragon face to be furious, but they didn't expect Zhao Zhen to suddenly change his smiling face again, and his demeanor was natural, not at all like the appearance of having just lost his temper.

"Hahaha...... I'm glad you can tell the truth in front of me! Zhao Zhen laughed wildly: "I won't pursue your problem first, hurry up!" As for your request, it will have to wait until the temple examination is completed. Although your answers are very high, and I am happy to hear it, I don't know if you really walk the talk. It doesn't matter, I will write down your ideals today, and I will keep an eye on you in the days to come, hoping that you will do it yourself!

Next, the palace examination is about to officially begin, everyone's attention!

The Yellow River, the mother river that fed my Chinese daughter. Once upon a time, she was not called the Yellow River, but she was still so clear and raised us from generation to generation. Today, however, she has begun to become muddy, and even often diverted her ways, harming her children, and there are so many victims of the river every year!

I often wonder why this mother river has become what it is today. How can we make her as tranquil and clear as before?

This is the question I want to test you, please raise your hands and answer. ”

These people are worthy of being the elite selected by the cruel imperial examination system, and soon someone raised their hands to indicate that this person is the best person in the examination, in history even in the three yuan (township examination, the entrance examination, the palace examination are the first, but now Zhao Zhen has been mixed up) Song Zhen, Kaifeng Yongqiu (now Qixian County, Henan) people, the word public order, the first name of the suburbs.

Zhao Zhen nodded at him, and he came out to answer: "Emperor Qi, the student Kaifeng Yongqiu Song Zhen." To your first question, according to the students' experience of living on the side of the Yellow River for a long time, the reason why the Yellow River has become as turbid as it is today is because of the turbulence of the river, which carries a lot of sediment. ”

"How to solve it?"

"Back to the emperor, as the students have seen, they can build dams in the river to intercept the sediment......"

Zhao Zhen was noncommittal to Song Zhen's words, but just waved his hand to signal him to retreat: "Do any of you have different opinions?" ”
