"It's right to be worried." Zhao Zhen nodded approvingly: "But you don't have to be too nervous." The first and detailed officials are all people who are full of learning and integrity, although it is good to let them go to read the papers, and they will not be wrong in general. He said in an accentuated tone, "You just need to grasp a little bit." ”

"Listen to the teachings."

"It is to maintain the fairness of the marking." Zhao Zhen said in a deep voice: "The king must rely on the ministers to govern the country, and the selection of ministers depends on the country's talent ceremony. Therefore, the importance of the imperial examination is related to social welfare, and you must be committed to the public and not be partial. As long as you are not partial, you can be a good president, understand? ”

"Erchen...... Got it. Zhao Zongshi hurriedly responded: "It must be fair!" ”

"Hmm." Zhao Zhen nodded, and said in a slow tone: "Again, the widow has great hopes for this scientific expedition. You must do a good job, and you have to take a few decent talents for the Great Song Dynasty. Saying that, he looked at Zhao Zongshi with a solemn gaze and said: "Cherish this opportunity, don't let down the widow!" Remember, people are doing it, and the sky is watching! ”

"Erchen remembers!" Zhao Zongshi felt a pang in his heart and said in a low voice.

"There is no joke between the monarch and the minister." Zhao Zhen regained his indifferent demeanor and said, "Go down." ”

"Whoa."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and three hundred and thirty-one new Kegong scholars finished the palace examination, and Xie En left the palace. Dozens of examiners who undertook the task of marking the papers began to work intensively.

Although since the second year of Jiayou, the palace examination has no longer fallen. However, it is still the final test to determine the ranking of the Jinshi, and the prospect of the top three Jinshi is obviously the same as that of the Jinshi, and the examiners are still sloppy.

After being sealed and transcribed by the scribes, the examination papers must pass three levels before they can be ranked. The first level is called the preliminary examiner, and the preliminary examiner first lists a ranking and then hands it over to the re-examiner. In fact, it is the requisitionist. The examiner has the right to give his or her own opinion after the re-examination. For example, if the preliminary examiner has set the top five to be A, B, C, D, and E, the re-examiner can rank one A, B, C, B, B, and E.

Finally, the detailed examiner will refer to the ranking of the preliminary examiner and the re-examiner. to determine the final ranking of candidates...... Except, of course, the top 10.

Because the top ten are decided by the emperor, to show that these protégés of the Son of Heaven are really selected by the emperor.

However, this year there are more presidents. It is said that because the official family is not in good health, the king of Qingling County will act on his behalf, which makes countless people excited, confused, and sighing.

Maybe there has never been any battle for storage space, right? In front of Zhao Zongshi, the other four princes have actually always been foils......

Zhao Zongshi also thought so. However, before the edict to make him the crown prince was issued, he still did not dare to relax. Instead, he became more cautious. At the moment of the overall situation, he was afraid that something would go wrong, so he set up a rule. Don't accept anyone's request, you must do your errands well, so that people can't find fault with them.

It's just easier said than done, as soon as the news of his appointment as president spread, all kinds of joints and doorways couldn't stop it. In the opinion of those who asked. Being able to enter the temple examination means that their children are good enough. As for the final ranking, between high and low, it is purely based on the examiner's personal perception. Therefore, to put their children's rankings in the front row as much as possible is just a gesture and harmless. …,

Therefore, it is natural for His Highness to express his position, but if he doesn't even help with this. It's just too undeserved.

There are many heavyweights among the suitors, and the strips were sent to Zhao Zongshi's hands through secret means, which made him feel helpless. After thinking about it, I could only eat my words, silently write down the joints on the slivers, and then burn those slivers.

It's just that in this way, Zhao Zongshi has worked hard, and he has to read the papers one by one, carefully looking for those agreed joints...... For example, so-and-so agreed on the note that my one would end at the end of the third paragraph of the first essay, and he would have to find that joint from the more than 300 points. Then put it as high as possible.

This is naturally extremely hard, but fortunately, in the eyes of those officials who don't know the truth, they will admire the five-body throw...... Your Highness is really diligent and responsible!

As everyone knows, he is working hard for the benefit of his own people. However, Zhao Zongshi still has a plan in his heart, that is, he will never interfere with the top ten rankings, because it is too conspicuous and easy to provoke criticism......

After more than ten days of hard work, the marking finally came to an end. The 321 new science and technology scholars outside the top 10 have been ranked, and only the top 10 have not been ranked.

The two detailed officials, Wang Anshi and Yang Ledao, presented the ten examination papers to Zhao Zongshi.

"What's your opinion?" Zhao Zong had a solid plan, and asked with a sincere face.

"Your Highness, please." Yang Ledao said softly.

"Xiao Wang is a shallow learner, so he mainly listens to the two." Zhao Zongshi said with a smile.

"Your Highness is modest," Yang Le said: "We have the courage to say it, and I implore Your Highness to point it out at any time if something is inappropriate." ”

"Okay." Zhao Zongshi nodded.

"The first thing to decide is the first place." Yang Le said: "In this, there is a custom in the imperial court, that is, no matter how it is ranked, the champion must be produced in the ranking provided by the preliminary examiner and the re-examiner, and there can be no other candidates." Saying that, he said with a wry smile: "But the meaning of the king's foreign system is to break the rules and set up another champion." ”

"Oh?" Zhao Zongshi looked at Wang Anshi and said, "What is the intention of the king's foreign system?" He has always been respectful and courteous to ministers, not to mention Wang Anshi, a mainstay whose reputation is growing.

"The lower officials looked at the first names drawn up for the preliminary examination and the re-examination, and were not satisfied with their test papers", Wang Anshi replied: "It is a suggestion to choose another first name." ”

"But it's not in order." Yang Ledao shook his head and said.

"Of course, the rules must be followed, but they have to be drawn up by the imperial court and issued by the emperor." Wang Anshi said lightly: "This so-called rule is just a move by the detailed officials in the past to shirk their responsibilities and eat a vegetarian meal. The champion, the leader of all beings, knows that there are better test papers but does not take them, what is the rule? ”

"This, this ......" Yang Ledao was Wang Anshi's opponent, and held back for a long time and said: "Let's ask Your Highness to decide." ”

"Then ask Your Highness to decide." Wang Anshi had no choice but to respond.

"Uh......" In all fairness, Zhao Zongshi really likes Wang Anshi's momentum, but at this juncture, he is better than less. What's more, he is already a thief. After pretending to ponder for a moment, he smiled and said, "Master Wang is reasonable, but let's follow the rules." ”

Wang Anshi was a little anxious when he boarded, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, all the principles should be based on the selection of the best talents, and should not be based on the rules as the principle and make a cocoon of yourself!" ”

Zhao Zongshi's face was splashed with a few drops of saliva by Wang Anshi, and he was unhappy in his heart, and said lightly: "Actually, this rule is not a bad thing. At the very least, it would limit the power of the magistrate so that he could not bend the law for personal gain. Feeling that these words were a bit heavy, he quickly slowed down his tone and said: "Of course, the prince's talent and character are known to the world, and no one will doubt your judgment." But if this rule is broken, if there is a self-righteous or improper main examination in the future, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not turn the imperial court's talent ceremony into a feast for one's own family. ”…,

Zhao Zongshi is indeed smart, and Wang Anshi's face is red. If he insisted on it any longer, he would become the person who was stubborn or unscrupulous, so he had to hang his head angrily.

Zhao Zongshi comforted Wang Anshi with kind words, and then determined the champion candidate according to Yang Ledao's opinion. In the last nine, Wang Anshi and Yang Ledao had no dispute, and Zhao Zongshi accepted all the orders.

The ranking of Jiayou's six-year palace examination was finally arranged. Zhao Zongshi breathed a long sigh of relief, hugged his fists at the two detailed officials and said, "It's hard work, let's hurry up and report the good news to the officials." ”

"Yes." The two stood up in response. Then he ordered someone to pack the copied test papers into boxes and carry them to the Funing Hall to report to the officials.

"You've worked hard." After listening to their report, Zhao Zhen smiled and said: "It's really inhumane to be locked up in the palace for so many days, hurry up and go home to reunite with your wife and children." ”

The three of them wondered in their hearts, this is not in accordance with the rules. Zhao Zongshi had no choice but to ask: "Father, has you not opened the seal yet?" ”

"I'll leave these trivial matters to the people below." Zhao Zhen smiled and said, "Why Lao Zhuqing? ”

"Yes......" The official family understood, and everyone didn't want to say anything more, so they withdrew.

Leaving the Funing Palace, the more Zhao Zongshi thought about it, the more wrong it became, looking at the meaning of the official family, it seemed that he still wanted to see the volume. So why do you want to be the president yourself?

Come to think of it, it seems that there are only two possibilities. One is the official family's test of himself to see if he is incompetent. The other is that he is the president, just a symbol, paving the way for himself to pass on the throne in the future.

Come to think of it, either way, it shouldn't be a big problem...... After all, it's just a ranking, high or low, no one can say anything.

As for those slivers that lead through the joints, they were all handed in by his own princess, and it is impossible for the news to leak over there.

So he put away his thoughts, rode the horse brought by the palace people, and went out of the palace.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the Funing Palace, Zhao Zhen was holding the champion scroll in his hand, as if he was reading it, but he was a little careless.

Downstairs, Hu Yandui and Li Xian were searching for the corresponding original papers from a box of test papers according to the map.

"Found it!" After tea work, Li Xian finally found the No. 7 paper from hundreds of test papers and handed it to Hu Yandui.

Hu Yandui hurriedly presented it to the official family.

Zhao Zhen opened the test paper and saw that the content on it was indeed word for word. Nodding and saying, "Demolish." ”

"Yes." Hu Yandui picked up the silver letter opener from the imperial case, carefully cut the name, and then turned the test paper to the emperor.

Zhao Zhen took a look, and saw that Wang Junmin, a person from Donglai County, Laizhou, was written on it! (To be continued.)
