The one who cares about the ranking of Yang Yifu's palace examination is not only himself, but also his father-in-law.

Half an hour ago, Fan Yaochen sat in the side hall, patiently waiting for the summons of the Son of Heaven.

On the Jiying Palace, after the palace test, the prime minister passed the name by name, which was a common practice, and as soon as he saw Zhu Baoshi coming over to pass on himself, Fan Yaochen followed the person into the inner hall as soon as possible.

Zhao Rui was looking at the article in his hand intently, and when he heard the name at the door, he raised his head, first excused Fan Yaochen's courtesy, and said hurriedly: "Fan Qing, come and see!" ”

After finishing speaking, he handed the Chinese chapter to Zhu Baoshi, who had been standing aside earlier.

Zhu Baoshi took it with both hands and passed it to Fan Yaochen.

What Zhao Rui got in his hand was the original scroll, and at this time, the name had been removed, and Fan Yaochen caught a glimpse of the name and place of origin on it at a glance.

Yanzhou, Gu Yanzhang.

This name has appeared too many times lately.

Zhao Rui took care of everything, and Fan Yaochen was not afraid to let it go, but even so, he had already remembered the name of this person.

In the Chongzheng Hall that day, Fan Yaochen and Zhao Rui argued with reason, rejected Chen Hao's letter of recommendation for a white body in Yanzhou City, and only gave that person an official status from the ninth grade.

At that time, he used the reason that, according to the system, according to the story, he could not be sent under the age of twenty-five. He also said that his people only relied on offering property and assisting in transportation, and should not have been sent in this way, not to mention that he was guilty of using the bow of the divine arm without permission.

But that's just an excuse.

Fan Yaochen also led the army and served as the governor of a state, he was born in a poor family, and he can be in the position of participating in political affairs, how can he be a mediocre person.

Through Chen Hao's simple recommendation, the battle report handed over by the United Security Army, and thinking of the situation in Yanzhou City, Fan Yaochen was already able to infer a series of actions of the white body surnamed Gu.

Is there really a person in the world who gives all his wealth for no reason?

How can it be!

Thousands of miles to be an official only for money!

It's possible to give your fur, but you can give it all, unless your brain is stupid!

Eighty percent were forced.

Yanzhou is newly restored, and ownerless wasteland industries are everywhere. At this time, it is really a rare opportunity for the officials in the yamen to eat their bellies.

That Gu Wu is a white body, according to what Chen Hao said in his recommendation, the whole family was destroyed, and there was no background, so it was normal for Xu to rectify and take the opportunity to embezzle the industry.

How many rich people will be destroyed by such petty officials in such a situation!

Chen Hao's recommendation letter said that Gu Yanzhang was a husband and escort baggage.

The whole family was destroyed, and there was only one male left, so how could he have to serve as a husband according to the law?

If he hadn't been framed, he would have written three words in reverse Fan Yaochen!

Fan Yaochen used to serve in the county and state, and I don't know how many people I have seen.

Once targeted by those officials, it is not uncommon to break wealth and avoid disasters or luck, and to destroy the family. When Fan Yaochen first became an official, when he first came to the county government, he saw that a junior official in the county was unwilling to marry his daughter to the stupid son of the old abbot in the yamen, and was skillfully manipulated by the abbot, and finally fell from the official and was exiled to Shamen Island.

And that Gu Yanzhang is just a white body, obviously serving the most despicable husband, he can actually see Chen Hao, who is under the jurisdiction of Du Chen, and his ability can be imagined.

When the camp is contributed, it is good to give birth to beautiful handwriting!

Is it possible to give if you want to give it?

The general camp of the security army, can you enter if you want to?

Chen Hao, can you see it if you want to?!

led Chen Hao to fight against the state government in Yanzhou City, this hand was played so beautifully, Fan Yaochen simply wanted to cheer for him!

Regardless of the assistant transfer in Chen Hao's recommendation, and the fact that he could meet on a narrow road, meet the elite of the Northern Barbarians in a hurry, and command his own limited forces, the merits of annihilating all the enemy troops are true or false, and he can flip the chessboard in a desperate situation, not only get out of trouble, but also turn the disadvantage into an advantage, and walk out of a road, Fan Yaochen will praise him for being clever and decisive.

Besides, Chen Hao's temperament never accepts useless people.

If Gu Yanzhang really didn't have much ability, but with his dedication, he would never find a way to take his people under his command, and he would also be involved in the errand of transfer.

With such an important position, unless Chen Hao doesn't want to live, he will definitely not place useless people in it at will.

With such ability, if it weren't for the fact that the other party was a person from Yang Kui's faction, Fan Yaochen really wanted to take him under his command, and the price he opened would never be lower than Chen Hao's.

Fan Yaochen has always been very kind to the talents he fancies.

Fan Yaochen read the recommendation several times, and although he didn't remember Gu Yanzhang's name, he had a deep impression of him.

As soon as the provincial examination ranking came out, he saw the origin and name of the first place at first sight, and almost immediately, he recalled Chen Hao's recommendation.

It just so happened that Qian Mai came to visit at that time, and the two chatted about today's imperial examination, so they naturally mentioned Huiyuan Gu Yanzhang.

Only then did he realize that the other party was actually born in Liangshan Academy in Jixian County, and he had won the first place in the admission examination of the two colleges, and he was second to none in the Liangshan and Qingming unified examinations over the years!

Qian Mai only brought the articles of a few of his disciples at that time, but he was able to memorize the good sentences in many of Gu Yanzhang's articles, and when he mentioned this person, he was full of regret and regret, and he did not include him in his own name.

Both civil and military, witty and decisive, so good, how can you let it go easily!

Besides, he worships Mount Liubo!

He was notoriously indifferent to fame and fortune, never involved in partisan disputes, and although he had personal relations with many people in both factions, he never mistook public affairs for personal reasons.

His disciples, shouldn't they be in a hurry to take refuge in Yang Kui?

Fan Yaochen immediately moved his mind, and asked the next day, and sure enough, Gu Yanzhang did not go to Liunequan to lead the official.

Recalling the content of the recommendation letter that day, combined with the time when Qian Mai mentioned that his person went to Yanzhou, calculate it, Gu Yanzhang was in front of the battle, and at most it was only more than a month.

Don't be Chen Hao's person.

Is there any easiest way to bring together such a character?

Naturally, it's a marriage!

As long as he becomes his son-in-law, all of the past can be blamed.

Hearing Qian Mai's description of his former behavior, Fan Yaochen was simply moved.

It is not uncommon to have both civil and military skills, but people who are both civil and military, capable and courageous, and people who can put them to death and live after death are among the 10,000 officials, and they may not be able to see one.

If you recruit a good son-in-law, you can lift the lintel.

Even if he learned from Qian Mai's mouth that Gu Yanzhang was married, Fan Yaochen didn't take it very seriously.

The marriage contract many years ago was a native of Yanzhou, and now whether the marriage can be completed or not is still two different things.

Let's meet again.

However, to Fan Yaochen's surprise, he searched for several days in a row, but he was unable to visit Gu Yanzhang's whereabouts.

The kid seemed to have disappeared from the world, neither went out to visit the ministers and scribes, nor communicated with fellow villagers, and was about to ask Liu Boshan, but the other party was not at home, and I heard that he went to Luoyang.

Later, I went to inquire about Liu Boshan's old wife, and only then did I knock on the side and ask the question.

It's really married.

Disappointed, he couldn't see him, so he had to retreat and choose Qian Mai's student as his son-in-law for his second daughter.

At this moment, in this Jiying Palace, seeing this answer sheet that was drawn out by the Son of Heaven alone, and then seeing this familiar name, Fan Yaochen did not show it on his face, but he smiled bitterly in his heart.

Put it in the bag, and sooner or later you have to stand out.

He sighed as he quickly flipped through the article.

"Good material!" He raised his head and said to the current day.

Zhao Rui rubbed her hands excitedly and said, "Fan Qing also thinks like this?!" ”

Fan Yaochen was keenly aware of the word "also".

"This is the number one in their ranks." Zhao Rui's face was full of smiles, and he said, "I also think it's very agreeable!" ”

As he spoke, the conversation suddenly changed and said, "I am very familiar with this name, as if I have seen it somewhere." He asked again, "Fan Qing, which official is this?" I see him seeing words, not an ordinary scholar! ”

Fan Yaochen knew that he couldn't hide it anymore, so he simply said: "This is the white body recommended by Chen Hao in the recommendation letter submitted by Chen Hao in the last Yanzhou battle. ”

Zhao Rui was stunned for a moment, and then vaguely remembered the scene of that day.

Fan Yaochen had already replied and said: "At that time, the minister agreed to his official status, but he refused to send him, and he also had an explanation with His Majesty. ”

Zhao Rui had already thought about the ins and outs of the matter.

His first reaction was to frown and say, "Those who have an official body are not allowed to be ...... champions."

The tone was very regretful and very displeased.

Fan Yaochen had no choice but to say: "That Gu Yanzhang has never gone to receive the official body." ”

Zhao Rui was happy for a while, and said with a smile: "A mere official from the ninth grade, there is no errand yet, so how can Gu Yanzhang be able to look at it!" He remembered the boastful words in Chen Hao's excerpt, and compared the content of Gu Yanzhang's palace test article, he couldn't help but laugh, "Chen Hao has a bit of knowledge, and he knows people from the reckless!" ”

Fan Yaochen's face was a little ugly.

Chen Hao knows people from recklessness, so what has he become?

Zhao Rui already said again: "Fortunately, Fan Qing rejected his send, otherwise I would have lost a champion!" ”

Fan Yaochen's face was even more ugly.

Is this a compliment, or a curse?

Zhao Rui didn't care so much, he thought about it and called: "Zhu Baoshi! ”

"The minister is here."

Zhu Baoshi hurriedly walked to the throne.

"Go and get Chen Hao's recommendation that day!" Zhao Rui commanded.

What he wants to take is a capable minister, no matter how good the champion is, he is only the champion of scientific research, and he has not yet succeeded, but this one, if it is according to what Chen Hao said at the beginning, he is already a courtier who can be directly called!

If his expectation of Zheng Shixiu is that of Yushitai, hoping to make that sharp-edged role model follow his instructions and bite wherever he points, for Gu Yanzhang, his expectations are completely different.

As long as it is used well, this will be a rare talent for governing the world, and it is still so young, so it will be a few years of life pressure, and it will be released everywhere to experience it, and it will be handed over to his son for reuse in the future, and he will be a rare minister of the humerus!

When his family is old, he helps the kid grind his talents, presses him to prevent him from rising too fast, and when he abdicates, it is convenient to be promoted and used, and he can also borrow it to contain the rest of the old ministers and ministers.

The more Zhao Rui thought about it, the better her mood became.

At this moment, a yellow door spoke, and after a while, a person walked in with a tray in his hand.

It turned out that the ranking of the temple examination had been re-copied.

Zhao Rui took it, looked at it again, and after confirming that several of his changes were correct, he handed it to Fan Yaochen.

Fan Yaochen took the list and scanned the top three first.

The champion is undoubtedly Gu Yanzhang, and the second place is Qian Mai's disciple, named Zheng Shixiu, he has read his article, although it is good, but it is full of anger, such an article, can he even get the third?

He thought to himself, but his face did not show any of it, but continued to look down.

Most of the first class are talented people who have been famous for a long time, which is not too unexpected.

It's just that......

He kept looking down until he was twenty-ninth, and then he saw the name of his newly recruited son-in-law.

How so......

The policy problem of this department, his own family has already speculated out ten out of ten, and he has helped him carefully revise it several times, that article is written, even if there is no champion, at least it is a first, how can it be ranked like this!

Although Zhao Rui couldn't guess what Fan Yaochen was thinking, he didn't intend to hide it.

The Son of Heaven changed the ranking of the palace test, and the detailed officials would naturally know what had changed, rather than making Fan Yaochen think more in his heart, it was better to talk about the matter at this time.

He smiled and said: "For the sake of the country, the matter is big, I saw that the original ranking, there are a few places that are not very appropriate, so I started to change it." ”

He said meaningfully: "Fan Qing is in a high position, I heard that he recruited a son named Yang Yifu as a son-in-law?" ”

Fan Yaochen hurriedly took a half step forward and replied: "This is indeed the case, the minister saw that everyone was good in character and talent, and when the age of his daughter in the family arrived, he became the master." ”

Zhao Rui smiled and said: "This Yang Yifu was originally the third place, but I thought, if Fan Qing's son-in-law took the third, there must be a lot of rumors and rumors in the Shilin, such slanderous words, it sounds very disturbing, Fan Qing has been very upright for many years, I don't want such a trivial matter to stain your official body, rather than making that kind of scholar troublesome, it is better to pinch this turmoil, so as to change his position with another person." ”

Fan Yaochen just wanted to sneer in his heart.

What the Son of Heaven was thinking in his head, how could he not know.

The palace test is the selection of the Son of Heaven, and whoever is chosen is the final say of the Son of Heaven, and those sour Confucians are a little jealous, and they will not make too much trouble.

Besides, it's just a leader, not a champion!

The fairness of the palace test, after the improvement of several dynasties, has almost completely eliminated the possibility of cheating.

The words of the Son of Heaven are just whitewashing the peace.

It's just that it involves himself, and Fan Yaochen is not good at the moment. He had to grit his teeth to swallow his annoyance, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty chooses a scholar for the country, and the scholar contributes to the country, no matter how much you rank, it is a blessing from heaven." He added, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your plan." ”

Zhao Rui nodded with satisfaction.

All he wants is an attitude from the other party.

Seeing that it was getting late, Zhao Rui said: "Let's take a roll call." ”
