On the second day of the big exam, the weather was still as hot as a furnace, if it weren't for the trees in the Gongyuan blocking the spicy sun, Zhao Lei would even suspect that the Gongyuan would be directly caught on fire. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info/. qΒ5

It is still Zhao Lei's study, still cool, Ouyang Xiu is still here leisurely reading the provincial examination papers yesterday, but the difference is that there is a middle-aged official with a solemn expression in the study, sitting on the main seat that should belong to Zhao Lei, while Zhao Lei gritted his teeth and sat on the side, looking at the exam papers in his hand with hatred.

Sure enough, the lower beam is not right, and the upper beam is crooked! Ouyang Xiu was so thick-skinned, and his teacher was the same, he originally thought that Yan Shu was a steady and mature wise man, but he didn't expect to be so shameless! Zhao Lei looked at the exam papers hatefully, and then looked at Yan Shu, who was sitting in his position, and sighed that he was careless in making friends.

After Ouyang Xiu enjoyed a day in Zhao Lei's room yesterday, now only Zhao Lei's room in the entire Gongyuan has cold ice and melons and fruits, and as a result, he immediately told his teacher Yan Shu about Zhao Lei's room with filial piety, and as a result, early this morning, Yan Shu openly occupied the main position of this room, who let Yan Shu be the chief examiner of the official family! Zhao Lei only looked at the two cheeky masters and apprentices with hatred, and they were mainly anti-guests here.

Zhao Lei looked at a strategy made by a Hebei scholar in his hand, drowsy, dizzy, originally the traditional Chinese characters have made Zhao Lei's head bigger, coupled with the traditional strategy, it still needs to be considered word by word, which makes Zhao Lei have a coma idea.

Fortunately, today's big exam is a miscellaneous subject, just answer the answer, if you still review the law like a policy theory, you have to go crazy! Zhao Lei thought complainingly.

Zhao Lei carefully identified the handwriting and meaning of the exam paper in his hand, and suddenly heard Ouyang Xiu's surprised voice.

"This is an interesting and well-written article! It is really interesting to use the past to discuss the present, from the Qin and Han dynasties to the Sui and Tang dynasties, and it is really interesting to be able to write this policy. It must be a learned person who has learned through the past and the present, look who wrote it! Ouyang Xiu said excitedly as he looked at the exam paper in his hand.

Ouyang Xiu's voice immediately attracted Yan Shu and Zhao Lei to his side, and they all looked at the exam paper in Ouyang Xiu's hand curiously, which can make Ouyang Xiu feel that a knowledgeable person must be a real talent, isn't the scientific examination just to tap talents!

"Sima Guang, a scholar from Xia County, Shaanzhou! Who? Haven't heard of it! Ouyang Xiu saw the name of the exam paper, scratched his head suspiciously, and said.

Sima Guang, a scholar from Xia County, Shaanzhou! Ouyang Xiu said this name, which brought Yan Shu and Zhao Lei different reflections.

"Sima Guang! This official has heard of this name, and it seems that he is the son of Sima Chi, who has been very smart since he was a child. At the age of nine, he had the feat of smashing the cylinder to save people, and Wen Yanbo, who was irrigated with water at the age of eleven, was tied to the two major prodigies of the Great Song Dynasty. Yan Shu heard Sima Guang's name. After pondering for a while, he sighed.

And Zhao Lei was stunned by the news that Sima Guang participated in the imperial examination, he clearly remembered that Sima Guang came to Bianjing to participate in the scientific examination in the first year of Baoyuan (1o38 AD), and was admitted to the Jinshi in one fell swoop. Now it is only the second year of Jingyou (1o35 AD), why did Sima Guang come to Bianjing three years in advance to take the imperial examination!

Su Shi was born three years early, and Sima Guang took the imperial examination three years early. Did I change history, or did I remember that history was wrong? Zhao Lei was stunned and thought in confusion.

"What's the matter, Lord Zhao! Do you know Sima Guang? Yan Shu looked at Zhao Lei, who was suddenly stunned, and suddenly felt that Zhao Lei seemed to know Sima Guang, and immediately asked curiously.

"Oh! I don't know, I've heard of it, the story of Sima Guang smashing the cylinder is very famous! Zhao Lei, who was woken up by Yan Shu, said in a whisper.

Zhao Lei looked a little weird. Yan Shu could only shake his head, and then said to Ouyang Xiu: "Give me Sima Guang's exam papers, and I will review them personally!" ”

Faced with the teacher's request, how could Ouyang Xiu not give it, and hurriedly handed Sima Guang's strategy to Yan Shu.

And Zhao Lei sat back in place and pondered whether Sima Guang's early appearance would cause too much change to history!

……

The three-day provincial examination of the imperial examination passed in a blink of an eye, Zhao Lei was locked up in the tribute courtyard for three days, except for Sima Guang, there was no well-known scholar, and he couldn't help but sigh why he didn't know the ministers of the Northern Song Dynasty well, so he couldn't even find a good helper now, so he found a Sima Guang, and was also taken by Yan Shu, and it was not easy to snatch people from the cheeky middle-aged ruler.

The examination papers of the six hundred scholars, especially the strategy on the first day, made it take Zhao Lei and more than a dozen examiners for ten days to reluctantly review them, and select the best ones from them, and after submitting them to the official family, they can evaluate this year's winners.

Since the beginning of the imperial examination, in order to prevent fraud, Zhao Lei has not returned to Zhao Mansion for more than ten days, thinking that he could return to Zhao Mansion for reunion after the scientific examination, but he did not expect that new things would come again.

The Yellow River was flooded, the Fengzhou River embankment burst, and more than one million people on the entire Jingxi Road were facing the threat of flooding.

"Enlighten the official family! The flood in Fengzhou has spread to more than 10 surrounding states and counties, and the affected people have reached more than 600,000, and more than 40,000 people have died in the flood after the household count, and more than 10,000 people are missing! Duan Shaolian, the head of the household, said anxiously above the main hall.

Duan Shaolian, the word Xiyi, Kaifeng people, the protégé of Yan Shu, the governor of the political affairs Yan Shu, the Empress Dowager Liu was far from the south when she was alive, and the official Zhao Zhen was called as the palace envoy after the government, and after the abolition of the turmoil, he was released at the same time with Kong Daofu and Ouyang Xiu and others, Yan Shu and Zhang Shixun also came back after returning to Bianjing, and served as the squire of the Shangshu Household Department, in charge of household affairs.

Zhao Lei listened to the latest news of the household department, and was very shocked in his heart, you must know that the disaster of the Yellow River flood this time is much more than last year's disaster, but there is no record in history, it seems that history has really been changed.

Zhao Zhen, an official who was sitting high on the dragon chair in the main hall, nodded and motioned for Duan Shaolian to go down, and then asked calmly to the civil and military officials of the previous dynasty: "The Yellow River breaks every year, which has become a major worry for the imperial court, so the imperial court has to spend a lot of money every year to help the victims and prevent floods, I don't know what way you Aiqing has to completely eradicate the floods of the Yellow River!" ”

Eradicate it completely! Hearing the words of the official Zhao Zhen, Zhao Lei was immediately stunned by Zhao Zhen's ambitions, you must know that even after a thousand years of scientific and technological level, he still can't handle the tyrannical Yellow Dragon, with the ability of the Northern Song Dynasty, Zhao Zhen actually wants to completely eradicate it, but he is arrogant and delusional!

"Enlighten the official family! The Yellow River has been raging for thousands of years, and no one has ever been able to eradicate the hidden dangers of the Yellow River since history, so Weichen thought that no one could fulfill the request of the official family just now. Prime Minister Zhang Shixun, who also saw the ambitions of the official family, immediately came out to correct the arrogance of the official family and said.

Zhao Zhen also said the wrong thing now, and hurriedly changed his words and said: "Zhang Aiqing is right, I lost my words, I want to know your Aiqing's views on the governance of the Yellow River!" ”

This is the real Northern Song Dynasty, the relationship between the emperor and the ministers is not as antagonistic and tense as other courts, Song Taizu's sentence "share the world with scholars" is not nonsense, it is fully manifested in the imperial court, it is the Song generation's emphasis on scholars, there is a feat of hundreds of thousands of people and countless scribes jumping into the sea after the death of the Song Dynasty.

"Qi Qi Guan, the minister thought that the source of the Yellow River flood was that the river embankment was not strong enough, the river channel was too narrow, so every rainy season, there will always be floods for various reasons, so the minister thought that the new waterway of the Yellow River was seriously insufficient, and the imperial court could repair the original embankment of the Yellow River, restore the old course of the Yellow River, and let the Yellow River water flow into the sea from Jingdong Road. Completely change the situation of flowing into the sea from Hebei Road. Prime Minister Wang once heard the words of the official Zhao Zhen, and saw that the hundred officials of the court were hesitant to speak, so he pondered for a while, and was the first to stand up and say.

"By all means, Hebei has been flooded for many years, the people have been displaced, if they are assigned to repair the Yellow River, what will the people of Hebei take on this heavy task, the restoration of the Yellow River will cost too much manpower and material resources, and the time will be too long-term, which will greatly consume the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty, and now the Great Song Dynasty is unstable on all sides, and it is simply impossible to take out so much manpower and material resources to repair the Yellow River, and the ministers oppose the opinions of Lord Wang!" When Lu Yijian heard Prime Minister Wang Zeng's plan, he immediately stepped out and retorted loudly.

"Wechen also objected to the opinion of Lord Wang, the restoration of the Yellow River is too huge, Wechen thinks that it is better to divert the stream, Wechen thinks that digging the Liuta River, diverting the Yellow River water into the Liuta River, diverting and reducing the pressure of the Yellow River, is the best way to control the river!" Li Zhongchang, an official of the River and Canal Department in the imperial court, also stood up to express his opinion.

Six Towers River! Zhao Lei heard the words of Li Zhongchang, an expert in river control, and sneered in his heart, he didn't think that a small Liuta River could divert the water of the Yellow River, you must know that when the Yellow River flooded, the flow of the Yellow River was absolutely unparalleled in the world, and the Liuta River was a small inner 6 river, no more than dozens of meters wide, such a narrow river, what to use to divert the Yellow River flood.

With Wang Zeng, Lü Yijian and Li Zhongchang taking the lead, the hundred officials of the imperial court in the imperial palace began to express their opinions, but to put it simply, the court was divided into two factions, one group supported the opinion of the prime minister Wang Zeng to rebuild the old road of the Yellow River, and the other faction was dominated by Lu Yijian, advocating the diversion of the Liuta River.

Zhao Zhen, an official sitting on the dragon chair, saw that the temperature above the hall was gradually rising, and Wang Zeng and Lu Yijian had the momentum of needle-to-needle against Mai Mang, and smiled distressedly, there was nothing he could do, because Zhao Zhen didn't know how to govern the river at all, so he could only listen to the opinions of his courtiers, and that opinion was right, that opinion was wrong, and he could only rely on luck.

Wang Zeng and Lu Yijian are quite reasonable, which side should they listen to! The official Zhao Zhen thought hesitantly.
