Chapter 8 The imperial examination arrived, and Zhao Lei became an examiner
Finally dispersed, Zhao Lei hurriedly walked out of the Imperial Palace, looked up at the sky shining in the hot sun, sighed and smiled bitterly. Pen %Fun%Pavilion www.biquge.info//、qΒ5.c0m\\
"Congratulations! Congratulations! Brother Sanshi was personally appointed by the official family to be the examiner of the provincial examination of the imperial examination this time, what a great honor! Ouyang Xiu, who had just returned to Bianjing, reappeared as a ghost, and suddenly appeared next to Zhao Lei, and said to Zhao Lei with a hippie smile.
"Rejoice! Rejoice! Uncle Yong is not also named as an examiner, Lord Yan is the chief examiner of this provincial examination, and he is also Uncle Yong's teacher, it seems that Lord Yan's protégé this time is close to the water. Zhao Lei said weakly to Ouyang Xiu.
"Of course, the most important thing in the imperial examination this year is not the literary talent, Liu Yong is powerful enough! It's not like it's still off the list, the most important thing now is to know the examiner's preferences, and the best way to prescribe the right medicine is the best way, and the teacher's protégé of course knows the teacher's preferences best, and it is estimated that the top three in this provincial exam, others are out of play. Ouyang Xiu was not polite, and said with a very arrogant laugh.
"I don't understand, why did the official family suddenly call me an examiner, you must know that now I have several positions, and my busy feet are not leaving the ground, so I have time to be an examiner!" Zhao Lei complained and said, he has no confidence in being the examiner of the imperial examination province, the imperial examination in the Northern Song Dynasty is not the college entrance examination after a thousand years, the answer sheet is inserted in everything, most of the imperial examinations in the Northern Song Dynasty are long theories, Zhao Lei in addition to plagiarizing Wang Anshi's book of ten thousand words, these things are really not familiar with the theory of countermeasures, let him be the examiner, I am afraid it is a mistake!
"The authorities are obsessed!" Seeing Zhao Lei's reluctant expression. Ouyang Xiu said indifferently with a smile.
"How?" Hearing Ouyang Xiu's words, Zhao Lei knew that he had other opinions on this matter, so he immediately asked.
"Why did the official know that you had not participated in any big competition, so he named you as an examiner? That's because the official family hopes that you can be a useful talent among the candidates, look at the three judges of the new army's logistics yamen, Ding Du and Zeng Gongliang and Xue Xiang were all unknown people before. No one knows that they are actually proficient in armor, weapons, weapons and economic methods, and since you transferred them to the logistics yamen of the new army, whether it is a case, an iron case or an ordnance office, the work efficiency has been significantly improved, the most remarkable thing is that in addition to your rocket car, grenade and mine, Ding Duming is even a horse, a one-armed man, and Zeng Gongliang's views on the weapons of city building, siege, and city defense, as well as Xue Xiang's ease among many merchants, are enough to prove that Brother Sanshi has a good eye, so the official family appointed you as the main examiner. It is estimated that you will be asked to choose some officials to supplement the logistics yamen of the new army. Ouyang Xiu explained carefully to Zhao Lei.
I see! Zhao Lei suddenly realized when he heard Ouyang Xiu's words, it seemed that he was indeed a fan of the authorities, and he just had a headache and tried to shirk the position of examiner, and he actually forgot to think about why the official family gave him this position.
"Brother Sanshi! Why don't you let me go to the New Army too? Ouyang Xiu suddenly looked at Zhao Lei and said solemnly.
Hearing Ouyang Xiu's words. Zhao Lei was slightly stunned, you must know that after Ouyang Xiu and Fan Zhongyan returned to Bianjing, they had already served in various yamen, and Fan Zhongyan had obtained the three-grade vacant position to be made in Tianzhang Pavilion, and he had the right to know Kaifeng Mansion. Yu Jing and Yin Zhu were transferred to the Imperial Court and served as counselors, while Ouyang Xiu. has been transferred to the criminal department by order of the official family, and there is no supervisor position in the new army, at this time Ouyang Xiu asked to go to the new army, which surprised Zhao Lei.
With Zhao Lei's surprised expression, Ouyang Xiu turned his head to see that there was no one around, pulled Zhao Lei to a corner, and said mysteriously: "Brother Sanshi!" Tell me frankly, are you talking about the idea of the newspaper yamen? ”
"Newspaper Yamen!" Zhao Lei looked at Ouyang Xiu with a light smile and said calmly: "Not bad! But how could Uncle Yong know? ”
"Cut! Brother Sanshi's little action. Who can hide it, first proposed that the fourth edition of the Bianjing News be changed to the eighth edition, which made the Bianjing News lose a lot, and now Ye Qingchen has felt that the newspaper yamen is biting his hand and is ready to push it out, and Brother Sanshi gave the official family 1.2 million taels of silver to repair the Changle Palace in Jinmingchi at this time, how obviously you want to take over the newspaper Yamen and Bianjing News that you founded single-handedly, I guess you must have a trick to bring the Bianjing News back to life, and you can make a lot of money, otherwise you will not pay the price of more than one million taels to exchange the newspaper Yamen. Ouyang Xiu said with a witty smile.
Hearing Ouyang Xiu's words, if Zhao Lei couldn't guess what Ouyang Xiu wanted, he dug a pit and buried it directly.
"Uncle Yong also wants a newspaper yamen?" Zhao Lei asked curiously, he didn't understand why Ouyang Xiu wanted the newspaper yamen, the newspaper yamen belonged to the logistics yamen of the new army, and then after launching an advertisement, he would definitely make a lot of money, but Ouyang Xiu was not a man who saw money.
Ouyang Xiu gritted his teeth and escaped from his arms with a copy of the Bianjing News, handed it to Zhao Lei and said, "Take a look! This is today's newspaper, Liu Yong's prodigal guy actually occupies most of the three or four pages, and my Uncle Ouyang Yong's name only appears once in the newspaper! ”
Zhao Lei took the Bianjing News with a smile, and sure enough, he saw Liu Yong's new words, Liu Yong's news, and Liu Yong's presence on the third and fourth pages of the newspaper.
Zhao Lei finally understood why Ouyang Xiu wanted to go to the New Army, and the idea of hitting the newspaper yamen, you must know that the Bianjing News is the largest newspaper in the entire Great Song Dynasty, with millions of newspapers every day, covering almost the entire Great Song Dynasty.
And the newspaper yamen, not only managed the newspapers that appeared in all the states and counties of the Great Song Dynasty, but also the newspaper yamen member Wailang, the four-grade official position, is also the editor-in-chief of the Bianjing News Newspaper, and the registration of hundreds of articles in the Bianjing News Newspaper every day must be through the newspaper Yamen Wailang, if Ouyang Xiu controls the newspaper Yamen, of course, Liu Yong can completely disappear from the newspaper, and through the power of the newspaper Yamen, other newspapers can not publish news about Liu Yongdi. This is the so-called Northern Song Dynasty blockade.
"Uncle Yong, do you still care about this kind of false name, Liu Yong is in the limelight no matter how much he is in the limelight, he is just a folk artist, and he is not enough to worry about!" Zhao Lei couldn't figure out why Ouyang Xiu and Liu Yong were facing Mai Mang everywhere, and there seemed to be a deep hatred between the two, so he asked suspiciously.
"It's not a matter of fame. The newspaper has the responsibility of educating the people, so that a prodigal person like Liu Yong can occupy the page for a long time, do you want the people of the Great Song Dynasty to learn from Liu Yong and linger! When Ouyang Xiu heard Liu Yong's name, he gritted his teeth and said.
Born to be the opposite! This is Zhao Lei's view on the relationship between Ouyang Xiu and Liu Yong, in his opinion, the newspaper is just a kind of propaganda and entertainment, there is no need to be too serious, Liu Yong is debauched, but it is his character that has become the only star in the Great Song Dynasty, and it is estimated that blocking Liu Yong will affect the sales of the newspaper.
Come to think of it. Zhao Lei immediately told Ouyang Xiu what he thought of.
"Don't worry! I have a sense of proportion, I will definitely not block Liu Yong, but just suppress it! Ouyang Xiu waved his hand and said to Zhao Lei.
"Good! If Ye Qingchen handed over the newspaper yamen and the Bianjing News to the logistics yamen of the New Army, I would definitely let Uncle Yong serve as a member of the newspaper yamen! Zhao Lei nodded and agreed to Ouyang Xiu's request.
finally said that Zhao Lei was moved, thinking that he could control the newspaper Yamen and Bianjing News in the future. Ouyang Xiu's heart was cold, and he decided to teach Liu Yong a good lesson.
……
Zhao Lei yawned and sat in a study in the Gongyuan, the sun hung high outside, but the room was full of ice, and the whole study was very refreshing. Ouyang Xian, who is also an examiner, sat opposite Zhao Lei, leisurely eating chilled melons and fruits.
"It's still a good treatment for the new army! Look at these cold ices, they are the hidden ice in the rich man's house! The new army has just been built. There must be no this, the Imperial City Ice Storage will not allocate these things to the new army, it must be Sanshi that you have exploited from that wronged boss! Ouyang Xiu shamelessly enjoyed the coldness and melons and fruits in the study, and also accused Zhao Lei of babbling in his mouth.
"There is land to eat, some enjoyment, what are you talking nonsense, you don't see the other study rooms in full swing, look at our eyes are red, be careful that they impeach us!" Zhao Lei looked at Ouyang Xiu, who was squinting and enjoying life. Said angrily.
"I really miss the days when I sweated like rain and took the exam! How innocent I was back then! I didn't expect that after just a few years in officialdom, I would become so greedy for pleasure. Ouyang Xiu looked at the scorching sun outside the window, and the six hundred scholars who were sweating and splashing ink in the Gongyuan in the scorching sun, and said with a sigh.
"It's really strange, why did the imperial court choose this time for the big test, spring and autumn are not better times? They are not afraid of those soldiers suffering from heat stroke! Zhao Lei thought about the high temperature outside, and said with some fear.
"What are you afraid of! I didn't see that the tribute courtyard is an old house, it's cool! There are a large number of dense trees in each test area, all transplanted from other places, specially prepared for scholars, and a large number of herbal teas, no one will suffer from heat stroke, the reason for putting the provincial test in the hot summer is very simple, because the summer clothes are thin, it is not easy to cheat! Ouyang Xiu wanted to take a bite of the melon and fruit in his hand, and said to Zhao Lei vaguely.
"What kind of strategy did you take today, and you forgot it?" Zhao Lei thought about the exam questions he got today, but he didn't think about them after thinking for a while, and asked Ouyang Xiu next to him suspiciously.
"Politics!" Ouyang Xiu sat leisurely on the side and replied casually.
Politics! This topic is good and the scope is large enough, any scholar must have their unique political opinions, and then show their political tendencies from these political opinions, and then choose whether it is worth reusing! Depend on! This topic is simply wonderful, who is so clever to come up with this topic! When Zhao Lei heard the word political opinion, he immediately thought of it angrily, because he knew that these two words not only represent wonderful, but also represent that when reviewing, you must read all the words carefully, otherwise if you are not careful, there will be a big mess, and Zhao Lei, what he hates most now is to review the traditional examination papers of those scholars word by word.
I hope tomorrow's strategy is a little more complicated, if you still take this test, you will have insomnia again these days! After Zhao Lei thought of the topic of political opinion, he thought depressedly.
(I'm worried, there is still that big name of the right age in the Northern Song Dynasty who can participate in the imperial examination and become Zhao Lei's first protégé!) Look around, either too old or too young, that's appropriate)
