On this day, in Ningao Country, heavy rain and thunder and lightning were blowing. In the main hall of the palace, a coffin made of golden silk nanmu is placed in the middle of the main hall. The coffin is carved with a golden dragon flying into the sky, the carving is delicate and exquisite, and the surrounding of the coffin is inlaid with gold and silver, which is extremely luxurious.

On the main hall kneeling a hall of civil and military officials, royal relatives and nobles. They were all dressed in mourning clothes and knelt on the ground in unison.

And in a certain corner, Ning Yihan, Jin Ge and Ning Zidan knelt together, the corners of Ning Yihan's eyes were red, and the hands hidden in his sleeves were holding their sleeves tightly, while Ning Zidan was crying.

After a while, a eunuch stepped forward, he held a holy decree in his hand, and read it aloud: "The edict of the first emperor, everyone kowtows!" ”

When the eunuch finished speaking, everyone kowtowed again to listen to the order.

"The ancestor emperor Chengze, the heir inherits the ancestral grande. I am a fool of the people. During his reign, he worked hard and worked hard to make the world slack, although he had the heart of blessing the world, but he was not blessed with a prosperous scene. The second highness Ning Yuchen has a strong dragon root and bones, outstanding talent, Yao Shunyu and virtue, heroic ambition, and the throne of the emperor. I hope that during his reign, he can seek happiness for the people and live a long life! After my death, everything is simple! Announce at home and abroad, and make the salty envoy aware of it! ”

As soon as this edict came out, everyone in the hall immediately turned around and saluted Ning Yuchen in unison: "Ministers and others to meet the new emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

Ning Yuchen's hand in his sleeve was clenched tightly, and he felt an unprecedented joy today, the throne that he had been longing for and looking forward to all the time, he finally got it. He was already ecstatic in his heart, but he still had to pretend to be calm on the surface, he stood up and glanced at the courtiers in the hall, "Flat!" ”

After Ning Yuchen ascended the throne, he proclaimed himself Emperor Huijin and changed the name of the country to Ning Hui, Ning Hui Dynasty. On the day Emperor Huijin ascended the throne, he was dressed in a dragon robe, tall and noble, and he sat on the dragon chair, as if he was looking at the world and overlooking all life.

And the main hall also stood full of courtiers, kneeling and saluting, paying homage to the emperor, and saying in unison: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

Ning Yuchen said: "Flat!" ”

"Emperor Xie!"

And all the people got up.

On the day Ning Yuchen ascended the throne, he made a decree: amnesty to the world and tax reduction for three years. As soon as this edict came out, the folk lion and dragon dances during the day to celebrate. Singing and dancing at night, night after night!

At noon on this day, in the Mowen Pavilion of the Northern Lion Kingdom, the talented women of the hall were sitting in the main hall and conducting scientific research. In front of the main hall there is a half-lit incense column.

Candidates should finish the exam paper before the incense is burned out.

After 12 years of hard work, the title of the gold list was once there! Therefore, everyone who came to Mowen Pavilion to participate in the imperial examination came to be on the list and glorious lintel. Of course, there are also some rich children who feel that their family has a big business and rich money, so they are not very interested in the scientific examination, and they fall asleep soundly when they go to the examination room.

Chang Mo, who was sitting in the middle, knew the exam questions in advance, so he started the exam papers, full of confidence and handy.

After the incense was burned, everyone stopped writing.

If it was according to the rules of previous years, it was five days before waiting for the results of the papers, but this year, all the candidates were asked to go to the side hall to rest, and the examiner changed the questions on the spot.

After three hours of waiting, the examiner divided the screened examination papers into four parts, submitted them to the palace slave, and then the palace slave presented them to the four people of Chun Yu Hanwei, Mu Zhijun, Mu Mo, and Mu Ruo behind the palace.

Each of these four people held a thick exam paper in his hand and carefully reviewed it, and Mu Mo happened to have an exam paper in his hand, and his name was written on it.

Although Chang Mo's exam paper is neat, this character is a little bad. But fortunately, every question Chang Mo answered was the same as the correct answer.

Seeing this, Mu Mo left Changmo's exam papers.

In Chun Yu Hanshuang's hand, there was also an exam paper that caught her eye. This person's name is Zhang Nan, her handwriting on the scroll is neat, and her pen is smart. Although every question answered is logical, it makes sense. Chun Yushuang admired this person very much, so he kept this person's exam paper.

After another two hours, the four of them finally corrected this exam paper, and the second correction screened many talented women, and in the end there were less than ten exam papers left.

These less than ten exam papers were handed over to Mu Yue by the palace slave. Mu Yue picked up the exam papers and looked at them one by one. When I saw the fifth, I saw Changmo's exam paper.

Chang Mo's bad words aroused Mu Yue's displeasure, Mu Yue frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Who corrected and submitted Chang Mo's exam papers?" ”

Mu Mo stepped forward and saluted: "Your Majesty, it was corrected by the minister." ”

"A bad hand, can also enter your eyes? When did the threshold for scientific research become so low? ”

"Your Majesty is angry, although Chang Mo's words are difficult to be elegant, but the writing is brilliant, and the courtiers see that Chang Mo is a rare plastic talent between the lines of Chang Mo's words. Therefore, her exam papers were left. As for the words, it is indeed vulgar, but talented people don't have to stick to these small details, Your Majesty, if the words are not good, you can practice again, but if the talented people miss it, the gains outweigh the losses. ”

Mu Yue took this exam paper to Chun Yu Hanshuang beside him, and after Chun Yu Hanshuang took it, Mu Yue asked, "Ah San, what do you think?" ”

After Chun Yu Hanshuang read the exam paper from beginning to end, he found many wrong words in many questions, and found a few typos in a few places, Chun Yu Hanshuang saluted, "Your Majesty, with all due respect, this exam paper is too fake!" ”

"What do you mean by that?" Mu Yue was puzzled

"Your Majesty, every question in this exam paper is close to the correct answer. But Your Majesty can take a closer look at this exam paper, there are many typos and mistakes, as if you knew the exam questions in advance, and then memorized them, and finally forgot because of nervousness in the scientific examination, so many mistakes and typos were written. ”

After hearing this, Mu Yu defended: "Your Majesty, maybe this person just wrote the wrong words and words because he was nervous for a while?" But this talent is excellent! ”

Mu Yue said: "Is it talented, invite people in, just give it a try!" ”

As soon as these words fell, everyone knelt down and saluted: "Your Majesty Shengming! ”

After a moment of silence, Changmo was invited into the hall. As soon as Changmo entered the main hall, her eyes looked around, but she always looked at Mu Zhijun intentionally or unintentionally, although Mu Zhijun ignored her and put on a cynical appearance, Changmo still looked at her from time to time. This small detail was carefully seen in the eyes of Chun Yu Frost. Chang Mo stepped forward and knelt down and saluted: "Chang Mo, the son of the secretary and young eunuch Chang Hailu, meet Your Majesty, long live your Majesty's five years old!" ”

"Changmo, looking at your article, this kind of talent really can't be buried. I also ask you, now that I am three points down, if I want to destroy the Three Kingdoms and dominate the world, if you are a minister, what do you suggest? ”

Chang Mo didn't expect Mu Yue to have this question, at first he came to participate in the imperial examination, just to comply with his mother's wishes, and he tried his best to try, ten years of hard study, just to make his mother happy, in fact, Chang Mo himself has no talent, Chang Mo thought about it, and couldn't say why for a long time.

"Changmo, are you nervous or don't know how to answer?" Mu Mo asked

Chang Mo bowed and bowed his head in fear, "Your Majesty forgives your sins, courtier, I don't know!" ”

After hearing this, Mu Yue said angrily: "Auntie, this is Mu Yu you recommended? Is your vision really bad? Mu Mo and Mu Ruo immediately stepped down from their chairs, knelt down and saluted, "Your Majesty is angry!" ”

As the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger, and Mu Yu has been frightened and knelt on the ground and dare not make a sound. And Mu Ruo was thinking that this person was not talented, but he could write a long story, and someone must have pointed him out behind it.

Mu Ruo boldly admonished: "Your Majesty, this person has no talent, but her examination papers can be easily passed, and she has been presented to Your Majesty. ”

As soon as this news came out, Chang Mo in the main hall was a little uncalm, and his heart began to panic. Chun Yu Hanshuang glanced at Mu Zhijun on the side, and found that she was still sitting calmly on the side, and Mu Zhijun also glanced back at Chun Yu Hanshuang.

Chun Yuhanshuang walked to the hall and saluted, "Your Majesty, the minister feels that this year's imperial examination is different from the past, this year's imperial examination is corrected by the examiner on the spot after the examination, and then screened by the ministers, and finally His Majesty has to pass the examination to be considered qualified." In this way, the most delayed thing in this year's scientific expedition is time. There will be any kind of emergencies in the examination room, of course, there will be people who will not hesitate to use all means for the title of the gold list, Your Majesty, since these things happen every year, then there is nothing to check. Your Majesty, it is imperative that the examination papers be corrected. ”

"What do you mean by this? It is precisely because this kind of thing happens every year in the imperial examination, and no one stops it, that this year it will intensify and make trouble for His Majesty. Your Majesty, if this matter is not thoroughly investigated, there will be more such things in the imperial examination every year in the future, so please also ask Your Majesty to order a thorough investigation of this matter! "Mu Ruo cut the railway

"Prince Mu, although this is true, the most important thing at the moment is to complete the scientific examination and review as soon as possible. Prince Mu, don't forget, these thousands of students are still waiting in the side hall, and now His Majesty has decreed that the candidates who passed the scientific examination will be announced on the same day. Your Majesty's words will be convinced by the subjects, if tonight, Your Majesty can't give the answers that the school girls want, does Prince Mu want to make Your Majesty lose his trust in the world? ”

"This ......" Mu Ruo was said to be irrefutable, Chun Yu Hanshuang continued: "Prince Mu, it has taken a lot of time for the examiner to review the test papers today, if it is not early today, Prince Mu, do you want Your Majesty to continue to waste time and lose your trust in the world because of such a trivial matter?" ”

Mu Ruo looked at Mu Yue, Mu Yue's face was cold, Mu Ruo immediately saluted and explained: "Your Majesty, the minister didn't mean that!" ”

Mu Yue said in a deep voice: "Auntie, don't you want to retreat?" ”

After Mu Ruo heard this, he had to retreat to the side and sit down, and Mu Ruo also retreated.

Mu Yue ordered: "Come on, take Changmo down, remove him from the examination room, and never be hired!" ”

After hearing this, Chang Mo was shocked and shouted: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is gracious, Your Majesty ......"

Chun Yu Hanshuang was afraid that she would call out Mu Zhijun's name, so he immediately interjected: "Shouting in the main hall, what kind of system, come, block her mouth and drag it down!" ”

After hearing this, the palace slave tightly gagged her mouth with a rag and forcibly dragged it down. Mu Zhijun's eyes looked at Chun Yu Hanshuang, and secretly said in his heart, what a funny person!

After Changmo was dragged down, Chun Yu Hanshuang walked to the front of the main hall, knelt down and saluted: "Your Majesty, the minister is guilty, please punish Your Majesty!" ”

"Ahsan, what do you mean by that?" Mu Yue was puzzled

"Chen, on his own initiative, ordered someone to block Changmo's mouth. So, please ask Your Majesty to punish the crime! ”

The corners of Mu Yue's mouth hooked up with a smile, "Ah San, I don't blame you, get up!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Chun Yushuang stood up and sat down again. Mu Yue flipped through the test paper in his hand again, and there was a test paper with Zhang Nan's name written on it. The answers on this test paper are crooked and heretical, and although the handwriting is neat, the answers to the questions are messy and illogical. Mu Yue asked, "Who reviewed Zhang Nan's test paper?" ”

Chun Yushuang stepped forward and saluted, "Back to Your Majesty, the minister approved it." ”

"The sword answering the question in this volume is off the edge and messy, why did you let her pass?"

"Your Majesty, although this person did not use the knowledge in the book to answer the questions, but after careful reading of each question, it is quite reasonable. Your Majesty, this person is fickle and flexible in answering questions, although the truth is crooked, it can also be seen that this person is witty and talented. Your Majesty, although you can read well, you can read dead books, but you are just a useless nerd, if you can not only learn to be rich, but also have a flexible mind, then it is really a rare material to create. ”

Mu Yue nodded, "It's useless to talk more, show this person, and you'll know it when you try it!" ”

Shaoqing, a woman wearing plain clothes and looking delicate, Zhang Nan came to the front of the hall, she knelt down and saluted: "The people's daughter Zhang Nan greets Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!" ”

"Flat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhang Nan stood up.

"Zhang Nan, although I look at your words and words, crooked reasoning and heresy, some people tell me that your words are crooked and not crooked. Since someone is so optimistic about you, then I will ask you, now in the next three points, if I want to destroy the Three Kingdoms and rule the world, if you are a minister, what advice do you have? ”

Zhang Nan thought about it for a while, then bowed, and said word by word: "Your Majesty, forgive the people's daughter." Among the three kingdoms, the country is rich and strong, and those with more than 100 million armor are Yongchun country. Although Yongchun country has a large land and vast resources, the land is vast. However, the nobles are deceitful and deceitful, the brothers are on the wall, the father and son are suspicious, the big country is big, the people's hearts are not ancient, and the sand is scattered, and sooner or later they will destroy themselves. The second is Ning Aoguo, although Ning Aoguo has a Ming lord, but the land is barren, the people are scarce, and there are no loyal ministers or good generals. The court was treacherous, and the people were corrupt and corrupt officials were rampant, so the treasury was empty and the people in the court were unstable. Ning Ao Guojun has no confidants around him, and he can only fake everything to others. The day of collapse is not far away! Your Majesty, the emperor, one person is the sky, the power is in hand, judging the situation, making the best use of things, making the best use of talents, the heart is wide to accommodate the world, and the mind is wide to accommodate all rivers. For the king, the world. In the affairs of the world, the upper can understand the heavens, and the lower can know the earth, so that they can be the lords of the world. And the king, although he is a high platform, his heart should also gallop the world. Therefore, to unify the world and destroy the three kingdoms, Your Majesty must first learn to act decisively, and there is no need to forbear the heart of dominating the world, Your Majesty still needs to wait, if the time is ripe, then attack the attack, and then the other two countries can be destroyed. ”

After some explanation, Mu Yue was the first to applaud, and after listening to this remark, Chun Yushuang secretly said in his heart, he could analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the Three Kingdoms so thoroughly, this is really a talent! If he is a loyal servant, it will be difficult to do it in the future.

Mu Yue said: "Yes, yes, Ah San, she is really as you said, she is a great talent that can be reused!" It's a wonderful remark. Such talents are really not to be buried! This year's new champion is you. ”

After hearing this, Zhang Nan saluted again, and she thanked her with joy: "The people's daughter thank Your Majesty for your holy grace, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!" ”

"Let's get flat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" After Zhang Nan stood up, he saluted again, "Your Majesty, the people's girls are brave, may I ask Your Majesty, which big man pushed the people's daughters?" ”

Mu Yue looked at Chun Yu Hanshuang and said with a smile: "Ah Sang, look, someone wants to thank you!" ”

Zhang Nan understood at a glance, so he stepped forward and saluted: "Thank you for the grace of this adult's promotion!" ”

Chun Yu Hanwei said with a smile: "The champion is polite, the champion has amazing talents, and he is just adding fuel to the fire, besides, they are all for His Majesty, not to mention thanks." ”

Mu Yue said: "I have selected five people who have passed, except for Zhang Nan, there are still four people left, I will hand over the list of these four people to King Jing, and King Jing will arrange it according to their talents!" ”

Mu Zhijun stood up and saluted: "Yes!" ”

After a imperial examination, everyone dispersed. The students in the side hall also dispersed in a hurry. Chun Yu Hanshuang followed Mu Yue to the outside of the hall, and the two sat in the same carriage.

The carriage was carried slowly by the small servant, and in the carriage, Mu Yue asked, "Why didn't you let me thoroughly investigate the cheating in the examination room today?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister remembers that Your Majesty said that the sister of Your Majesty's father and compatriot is His Royal Highness King Jing. His Majesty also said that His Royal Highness King Jing is His Majesty's only relative, and His Majesty will protect King Jing at all costs. And today's matter happens to be related to King Jing, and the minister does not let His Majesty investigate thoroughly, because he is afraid that His Majesty will not be able to deal with King Jing after knowing the truth. Your Majesty, if that person really betrayed King Jing, the two next to him would definitely ask His Majesty to dispose of His Royal Highness King Jing, and moreover, they would make a big fuss about this matter, so the ministers had the courage to block Changmo's mouth, so as not to betray King Jing in a hurry. ”

"Where did you tell that she is related to King Jing?"

"Your Majesty, as soon as Changmo went to the palace, his eyes looked at King Jing intentionally or unintentionally, although King Jing showed familiarity and calmness, but Changmo's eyes were always exposing himself, so the minister knew that this matter was related to King Jing."

Mu Yue nodded, "You were still careful and stopped me in time." Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable. By the way, Ahsan, you might as well guess again, what is the purpose of King Jing doing this? ”

"Your Majesty, this is Your Majesty's family matter, and the minister doesn't dare to say anything! Also, Your Majesty can rest assured that the matter of His Royal Highness King Jing is known by God and the earth, and the ministers know that His Majesty knows, and this matter will never be passed on from the minister's mouth to a third person. ”

After Mu Yue heard this, he laughed twice and joked: "Ah San, you are quick-witted, witty, flexible, both civil and military, this should be, it's you, right?" ”

Chun Yu made a salute and replied with a smile: "Your Majesty praises!" ”

After speaking, the two changed the topic and chatted.
