The next day, the literary test restarted, this time Liu Qi deliberately took the Imperial Forest Army to be stationed inside and outside the examination room, for fear that something would go wrong again, and it was precisely because of this strict garrison that even the group of martial arts people who had been dormant in Kyoto for a long time as Tao Jinyan said did not make any movement, but Chu Nian still did not dare to take it lightly, and the two secret guards stayed by Chen Lao's side day and night, not leaving an inch.

The examination was finally successfully concluded, and all the secretaries and supervisors rushed to correct the examination papers day and night, and finally selected five people on the seventh day after the end of the examination to cope with the next palace examination.

In the palace test, Ye Yuan and Tao Jinyan each occupied a place, in addition to Zhao Qingtian who came in from the Wang family, Yue Rushi who came in from the Huainan Wang, and the other one came from the people, it is said that he is a person from the Han family who is five hundred miles away from the capital, named Mu Qianqiu, the local long history praises this person endlessly, although I don't know if there is real talent and real learning, but it is also a stepping stone in this territorial struggle of the official family, which is really a pity.

Chu Nian was also called to the palace during the palace test, and the emperor said that since she came up with the idea, she should be asked to follow and see.

At this moment, the Chinese military officials of the Jinluan Hall were sitting on both sides, the emperor was at the top, and two more chairs were added under his side, one was Chu Nian's, and the other was for the foolish prince who was noisy and had to come to see the excitement.

There were five people standing at the bottom, Ye Yuan and Tao Jinyan stood together as a matter of course, next to Tao Jinyan was Zhao Qingtian of the Wang family, Yue Rushi who was sent in by the King of Huainan, and Mu Qianqiu, who was determined to serve the people wholeheartedly.

Chu Nian sat beside Ming Xiu, his gaze swept over the faces of the other three one by one, his gaze fell on Ye Yuan's face, who had never been silent and could not see his emotions, and after a pause, his gaze turned to Tao Jinyan, his eyes flickering slightly.

At this moment, the man was in a daze, as if he didn't know that he was in the court, and he didn't know that his shocking appearance had caused all the ministers to speculate.

Regarding this palace test, it can be regarded as another major battle between the Wang family and the king of Huainan, all the ministers know it, but it is also the first time to see the five people who passed the exam, and the other people are all full of the pedantic atmosphere of the literati, except for Tao Jinyan, who looks feminine and feminine, and exudes the atmosphere of hanging children up and down, how to look like the children of a big family.

When the hundred officials guessed Tao Jinyan's origin, the emperor at the top coughed lightly.

"Wang Aiqing, you can start the palace test."

Wang Zixuan stood up from his position, leaned towards the emperor, and walked to the hall, his eyes turned to the five people present, and he paused on Tao Jinyan's "bewitching" face before turning to the other people.

"Can go through the first two levels, you are all my cool talents, today's palace test, is to select a candidate who can be qualified for the long history of Tingchuan, and then this minister will ask you a few questions, you have to answer truthfully, according to your performance, the court will choose which one as the long history of Tingchuan, of course, the court cherishes talents, if you fail to pass the palace test, it will also arrange a good place for you."

After the polite words were spoken, the five of them looked at each other before they all knelt on the ground and said, "Thank you, Lord Longen." ”

Feeling the burning gaze on his side, Chu Nian helplessly pulled Ming Xiu's sleeve, coughed lightly, and then the gaze was diverted, today the two of them were sitting on the seat beside the emperor, if Ming Xiu behaved too obviously, it would cause criticism.

Ming Xiu's deep voice came from his side, "What does that martial artist want when he comes here?" ”

Chu Nian's gaze fell on Tao Jinyan's face, which had always been indifferent to anything, and he shook his head helplessly and said, "I don't know, but I think he has no interest in the position of the long history of Nating Chuan." ”

When the two were talking, Tao Jinyan just raised his head and saw Chu Nian's gaze, he bent the corners of his lips, smiled as if he was not afraid of a big deal, and blinked mischievously, Chu Nian obviously felt the air pressure suddenly lowered on his side, frowned, and silently looked sideways, and saw the handsome face with the vinegar jar on his side.

Chu Nian didn't know what to do with Ming Xiu, who was eating, so he saw Wang Zixuan's gaze sweeping everyone's faces, "Everyone has heard about the drought that happened in Tingchuan last time, and that time it was the Wushuang County Lord who personally solved the disaster, which suffered a lot of twists and turns, it can be said that it is not easy, since it is the long history of Tingchuan, then today's true appearance will come to test you, if it is you, how to deal with the drought that has been hidden for a long time?" ”

Mentioning this, Wang Zixuan hated it so much that the roots of his teeth itched, the line of Tingchuan Changshi was all arranged by his royal family, but it was no wonder that Chu Nian, it was clearly the topic of King Huainan who guided everyone to Tingchuan in the early court, obviously he had known about this for a long time, and Chu Nian was sent away directly when he returned to Beijing, and he had no chance to talk to Chu Nian about the involvement of this matter.

However, in the end, it was Na Tingchuan Changshi who asked for trouble under the protection of his Wang family, and he eliminated them earlier through Chu Nian's hands, and he was fortunate that he did not implicate the Wang family.

After listening to Wang Zixuan's exam questions, everyone lowered their heads and made a contemplative state, since the exam questions were made by Wang Zixuan, Zhao Qingtian naturally knew the questions a long time ago, he pretended to ponder for a while, and then blurted out the lines he had already prepared, "I heard that there was a plague outbreak at that time, if it were me, I would first arrange for the people to be in the Tingchuan Changshi Mansion, and then send people to sort out the situation in the disaster area, completely eliminate the source of the plague, and then reorganize the disaster area." ”

After speaking, Zhao Qingtian raised his head with confidence, as if the disaster was controlled by him personally, but he prevented the epidemic in advance of Chu Nian.

Chu Nian, who was at the top, raised his eyebrows, to prevent the epidemic? He said it easily, the people hadn't eaten a meal for a few days, and at that time, Tingchuan Changshi refused to provide the people with a place to live, where was there time to think about the plague?

He can be regarded as a budget opportunity, where did Wang Zixuan find such a mediocre talent.

The corners of Chu Nian's lips were dyed with a bit of sarcasm, but Wang Zixuan's face was blue and white for a while, he sent in so many Qilin talents, there was only such a thing left? How did he squeeze into the temple to try? Did Old Man Chen deliberately put it in to see his joke?

He also deliberately sent someone to inform him of the questions to be tested in advance, and he came up with such an answer?

Seeing Wang Zixuan's obviously dissatisfied expression, Zhao Qingtian's triumphant expression froze on his face, and after a while, he lowered his head and stopped talking.

Tao Jinyan is not afraid of big things when he sees the excitement, "Brother Zhao is really calculating, and he can predict the disaster in advance." ”

Zhao Qingtian raised his head and glanced at Tao Jinyan hatefully, "Then according to Brother Tao's opinion, how to deal with it can be better than the county lord?" ”

Hearing this, Chu Nian looked at Tao Jinyan with a vague gaze, and she was also looking forward to what good way this mysterious guy could come up with.

But Tao Jinyan obviously didn't want to answer this question well, but as soon as he raised his eyebrows, he said in a solemn manner: "Of course, you should apply for disaster relief funds first, otherwise how can you talk about disaster relief when the people have nothing to eat?" ”

Ye Yuan echoed from the side, "Brother Tao's words are extremely true, if the people riot in groups because they can't eat, it will be even more difficult to deal with." ”

"You ......"

"Da Ke first ordered the people in the disaster area to temporarily move to the nearby Qichuan, Tingchuan is in trouble, and it is impossible for the long history of Qichuan to die without help." Yue Ru interrupted Zhao Qingtian, who was about to go berserk, and said thoughtfully.

Ye Yuan squinted his eyes slightly and smiled lightly, and did not say much, at this time, Mu Qianqiu, who had been unknown, said: "I heard that Brother Ye was originally from Tingchuan, compared to us, Brother Ye must know the situation better, if it is Brother Ye, what should I do?" ”

Chu Nian's gaze fell on Mu Qianqiu's face, this person looked feminine, with fair skin and a black beard, how to look at it and feel awkward.

Hearing Mu Qianqiu's question, Ye Yuancai bowed down and said: "At that time, the situation in Tingchuan was in crisis, and the disaster relief funds were delayed, if it wasn't for the county lord's own pocket, I'm afraid Tingchuan wouldn't have been able to survive this crisis at all, in the final analysis, it was still a matter of disaster relief funds." ”

As soon as these words came out, the officials immediately discussed, everyone knew what the situation was, the disaster relief money had been sent to Tingchuan several times ago, but Tingchuan still reported to the imperial court for disaster relief on the grounds of the disaster, and the court naturally did not give it.

Ye Yuan saw that Wang Zixuan's face was not very good, his eyes sank slightly, and he didn't speak anymore.

Tao glanced at Zhao Qingtian sarcastically, "If the Tingchuan Changshi Mansion is big enough to fit 50,000 refugees in Tingchuan, I'm afraid that the imperial court will have to investigate how much Tingchuan Changshi has embezzled." ”

In the face of Tao Jinyan's repeated falls, Zhao Qingtian finally couldn't stand it anymore, and he rushed to Tao Jinyan irritably, "You are simply too deceitful......

Tao Jinyan grabbed Zhao Qingtian's wrist, and immediately took advantage of Zhao Qingtian's failure to react, and slammed it fiercely, and suddenly screamed.

Seeing that these two dared to make a conflict in front of hundreds of officials, Wang Zixuan was so angry that he trembled all over, and said sharply: "Zhao Qingtian, Tao Jinyan, cancel the exam qualifications, you can get down!" ”

Tao Jinyan shrugged his shoulders helplessly, Zhao Qingtian was arrogant and suddenly extinguished, and the wrist that was pinched off by Tao Jinyan made his face pale for a while.

After the two were thrown out of the palace by the guards, Chu Niancai frowned slightly and looked at the place where Tao Jinyan was standing, with a contemplative look on his face.

Ming Xiu on the side smiled coldly, "I also said that I don't know martial arts, it's obviously an excuse to get close to you." ”

Chu Nian shook her head, it seemed that she needed to have a good talk with Tao Jinyan.

Because Wang Zixuan was furious, for a while, the Jinluan Palace was quiet for a while, and the officials looked at each other, and no one could say anything, that handsome Lang Jun was really the son of a certain family, otherwise how could he dare to make trouble in the court? Wang Zixuan's person who is so eager to repay him, as usual, is at least twenty boards, but he just threw him out? Could it be that he is Wang Zixuan's person?

Baiguan naturally didn't know that Wang Zixuan was afraid that Zhao Qingtian would really be injured by him, and Zhao Qingtian's family would come to the door to find trouble, although Zhao Qingtian's family was not a big family that could shake his status, but it had something to do with "that" in the end...... As for Tao Jinyan, he was originally a person who had no way out, and he didn't know who he was, if he wasn't afraid of provoking criticism, of course he hoped to beat the boy who was underwhelmed, and dared to go wild in front of him, and he was impatient!

At this time, the head of Ming Xiu's gaze turned to Chu Nian, "The person you brought back, should he really have real talent?" ”

Chu Nian couldn't say anything about Ye Yuan, but at that time, she was busy with disaster relief, and Ye Yuan came up with a lot of practical ideas, which can be regarded as a talent that can be created, but she was born at the wrong time.

Seeing that Chu Nian pursed his lips and didn't speak, and Ming Xiu didn't say anything, he saw Wang Zixuan gritting his teeth and said, "The palace test continues!" Now that there are only three of you left, I will only give one question, if your answer can satisfy the civil and military officials present, it will be considered excessive. ”

The remaining three suddenly looked nervous, and saw Wang Zixuan thinking and saying, "What do you think about the policy of centralization and decentralization?" ”

Chu Nian, who was on the top, was stunned, Wang Zixuan is this a blatant puller? How do they answer this? If it is said that it is good to disperse power, wouldn't it be suppressed by the Wang family to a low level? But if it is said that it is good to centralize power, doesn't it blatantly show that he is on the opposite side of Wang Zixuan?

Ming Xiu on the side also looked at Wang Zixuan with a gloomy face, silent.

The civil and military officials looked at each other, and everyone knew the situation in the court, but no one could say it to their faces, and now they were moved to the table by Wang Zixuan himself, and it can be said that Sima Zhao's heart is well known.
