The Wenhua Hall has ended, the Son of Heaven has returned to the deep palace, and the ministers have left the hall with different faces. These bigwigs are all influential figures in the political arena for decades, and they are definitely well-informed, but they have never seen such a strange pre-imperial reading scroll as today.

The second assistant Liu Jue exceeded the rules and used the opportunity of the university scholar to read the papers to promote the unsuccessful examination papers, which was already shirtless, which was eye-catching enough.

Who would have thought that there was a mountain and a mountain high, and Liu Ji, the third scholar who should read the paper later, actually said in front of the Son of Heaven that he gave up reading the paper and agreed that the test paper read by Liu Jue was the champion!

Then, there is no then, two of the three elders agree with someone, and the champion can still run? So the Son of Heaven showed his face, no longer embarrassed, and easily and happily changed Zhang Tianrui and Fang Yingwu to a different position, presumably at this moment in the heart of the Son of Heaven, he appreciated Liu Mian very much for taking care of the overall situation and understanding the general situation, otherwise when would he quarrel?

Yin Min, the heavenly official of the Ministry of Officials, and Liu Jue, a scholar of the Jinshen Palace, walked forward together and asked quietly, "Why is Shu Wen like this?" It's not worth it for one Zhang Tianrui. ”

Liu Jue was silent, Yin Min didn't have a backache when he stood and talked, could he not support Zhang Tianrui? Otherwise, if Liu Mian really stepped on him and promoted Fang Yingwu as the champion, what momentum would he have in the future?

But Liu Jue never expected that he still underestimated Liu Mian's shamelessness, but Zuihou became a person who openly manipulated the imperial examination, broke the rules of the industry, and made trouble unreasonably! I'm afraid that there will be trouble on the side of Kedao in the future!

However, it was said that outside the left gate of Chang'an, after the ranking was announced, everyone had their own thoughts. Of course, the top of the rankings is happy. The most important thing after the imperial examination is, of course, the selection of officials, and the higher the ranking. The more likely you are to pick a good position when choosing an officer.

As for the second place, it is joy with a little regret. Although it is a happy event for the glory of the ancestors, if the elected official is selected to a foreign country, he will be the magistrate or governor of the county or state. I can't stay in Beijing to show my strength, and I always feel that I have some regrets.

However, the title of the gold list is a festive occasion, and most of them sigh that a few lives have passed, at least for now, they are all Jinshi in the same year, and no one is much higher than whom.

But after Xiang Chengxian shouted a few times indignantly, and angrily reprimanded the court for the injustice of the other party, he suddenly focused everyone's attention on the champion and the eighth place in the second class. I thought about it together, and the champion of Jinke seemed to be a little unauthentic

Previously, Fang Yingwu was third in the township examination and first in the general examination in terms of results, and he had a good reputation in popularity. The appearance is excellent, and there are also scholar-level giants in the DPRK and the central government, plus they are the disciples of the three heads and assistants, so if you want a champion, you can almost get it, and it is definitely the first favorite.

At that time, no matter what others thought, they were convinced or not, but one thing had to be admitted that if Fang Yingwu finally took the lead, it would be according to the rules. It is still within the scope of the rule of reasonable use. Fang Yingwu's comprehensive strength is indeed the strongest, and the conditions are hard, which is not acceptable, even if there are ghosts and gods to help him, it is understandable.

But the real champion of Zuihou is not Fang Yingwu. is Zhang Tianrui, who has lost his qualifications, which is a bit subverting everyone's cognition.

In the well-known rumors, this champion has obviously fallen out of the top ten. There is no qualification to be selected in front of the emperor at all, and the Zuihou ranking should be the eighth in the second class by default. How did you become a champion? Using the analogy of the college entrance examination in the 21st century, this gentleman has not even passed a score line. What else do you want about Tsinghua University and Peking University?

In reality, such a thing just happened, Zhang Tianrui and Fang Yingwu's rankings just fell, Zhang Tianrui replaced Fang Yingwu as the champion, but the popular Fang Yingwu fell to the eighth in the second class.

What happened in between? If Fang Yingwu can be the champion, it is an insider; But Zhang Tianrui, the champion, can definitely be called shady. A shady curtain born outside the rules!

Everyone is not stupid and blind, of course, it can be seen that if it weren't for directly breaking the rules, how could Zhang Tianrui, who shouldn't have even entered the top ten, squeeze out Fang Yingwu and grab the champion?

Thinking of this, everyone's eyes looking at Fang Yingwu were full of sympathy, what is the heat must die, what is the wood show in the forest, this is a living typical. As for Zhang Zhuangyuan, forget it, I'm afraid that this is the most greasy champion since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

Now it seems that Fang Yingwu looks very pitiful. Many people gradually surrounded Fang Yingwu, especially those close to the same province who had been entertained by Fang Yingwu, and they opened their mouths to convince them. People may not be able to fight against shady scenes, but at least they can comfort the victims and express their dissatisfaction with shady scenes in this way.

"The will of heaven is slim, non-human power can influence it, and I also ask Fang friends to mourn!"

"If you want to descend to the people, you must first suffer their minds, and encourage your friends!"

"This is not a crime of war, although Fang Friend's ambition is difficult to pay, but there is no need to be depressed, after all, the future will be long!"

Caught off guard, Fang Yingwu was overwhelmed by the enthusiasm and reassurance that came from his brain. He was stunned for a moment, feeling extremely strange in his heart

He is also the eighth in the second grade, and he is also in the forefront among the 300 people, ranking higher than the 95 percent of the people present.

Thinking about it so far, the prescription should be really laughing and crying, a group of people who have taken the test in the same year of the dozens, the hundredth or the second hundredth, sympathize with him for the eleventh place? Make no mistake!

It's just that Fang Yingwu still doesn't know what happened in the Wenhua Palace, whether Liu Mian missed or dug a pit to bury people, so it's not easy to answer, so he can only deal with it in a hurry, and he looks even more depressed in the eyes of others.

At this time, Li Min, who was in the same province and township test Xie Yuan, also squeezed in, and the other party solemnly arched his hand and apologized: "Yu used to spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and he misbelieved the rumors, and he was offended. Now that Fang knows that Zhou Gong is afraid of rumors, the ancients are reasonable. ”

Fang Yingwu stared at Li Min and was stunned, and suddenly faintly realized something, it turns out that this effect is not bad Compared with a controversial high-profile champion, it is still more affordable to be a tragic character who has a slight ranking but is recognized by everyone.

At this moment, any language is superfluous, except for the poetry Fang Yingwu suddenly raised his head a few times, hugged his fists to the friends around him as a salute, and recited loudly:

"The books are scattered and the pen is vertical and horizontal, and the windows are cold every night and wait for the dawn. Once he dreamed of violating his father's wishes, he was ashamed of his teacher for three years. The snow before the wine wakes up in another country, and the spring cold list of the imperial capital is under the list. The hearts of the people of the world are helpless, full of dust and fame! ”

After composing the poem, Fang Yingwu waved his sleeves, shook his head, sighed, stomped his feet, and walked away, leaving the left gate of Chang'an.

Everyone looked at the back in the distance and sighed, the century-old story of a nineteen-year-old boy was destroyed by the shady curtain. If it was really Zhou Gong's Fear of Rumors Day, who released the rumors before? Fang Yingwu would never be stupid enough to release such rumors, right?

According to the principle that the profiteer is suspected of being the greatest, it is no wonder that some people want to accuse the court of injustice, if it is really because the rumors are too strong, it ruined the opportunity of Fang Yingwu, and the big hit actually did not even enter the Sanding Jia, so is it really fair for the other party to be unfair?

What a pity! (To be continued......)
