However, because there are too many stars in this year's candidates, the son of the prime minister's family and the son of the former prime minister are here, everyone waited tacitly for a while, and then as more and more test papers were sent, almost more than half of them began to score.

In fact, the imperial examination in the Song Dynasty did not have the Ming Dynasty's eight-share system, if it was a rule, that is, "beauty" and "thorns", simply put, what the Jinshi had to do was to write a political paper that patted Zhao Guan's family and pointed out the mistakes of Zhao Guan's family at the same time. As long as the sycophants are well filmed and the criticism is in place, then this is a typical good article for the palace test, and you don't have to worry about getting a good ranking, let alone being brushed down.

Eight hundred articles with names obfustered, no matter how wise and martial the official family is, it is impossible to read them one by one, but they just ask the Zaizhi, Shangshu, and Hanlin scholars to review them together, set a rough ranking, and then select excellent nouns.

Not only that, with the beginning of the official name review, no matter what kind of background, once the official royal pen has set the ranking, no changes are allowed. The test paper should also be posted outside the Xuande Building for people to watch, to show the selflessness of the imperial court.

However, some volumes, even if they are obscure, can be caused by first-hand articles to cause the monarchs and ministers in the imperial palace to be stunned and treated with caution.

For example, Zhao Jiu took Zhao Jiu and looked at the test paper in his hand full of neat small characters, from the beginning to the end, he only felt that the shock in his heart was no longer enough to express his mood.

This benevolent brother did not have the test paper that Hu Quan handed in very early, but he actually wrote more than 10,000 words of palace test man's behavior, and the whole article is only more than 3,000 words, but it can be called a dry article throughout, pointing directly to the disadvantages of the times, as if it was from the hands of an accumulated cadre.

What is even more commendable is that he integrated these four issues into a whole, and the awareness of the overall situation filled the whole text. The first sentence of the opening chapter is, "After the Jingkang Rebellion, the mud and sand fell, the imperial court acted unconventionally, and the chaotic times were re-enacted, so that there would be a unified situation." However, since it is unified, the governance of the world is based on the safety of the people, and the peace of the people is based on legislation. "To put it simply, the most important thing is to feed the people of the newly reconquered areas.

Then it was pointed out very unceremoniously that the Zhao official family, as the absolute core of leadership, should always run out in wartime, but in the peaceful and prosperous era, it is not a proper business. Just as you are simple and most officials do not dare to be extravagant, if the officials do not pay attention to their own work, it will also lead to upward and downward effects, and you must not be unscrupulous because of your unprecedented prestige after winning the deer war, you must know that public opinion is like flowing water, and no matter how high your achievements are, you must know Li Longji.

If you just say that, everyone will only think that this is a seedling of the imperial history, but the content behind the people is also very exciting, combined with the topic, pointing out that it is definitely right to recuperate, how to do the Han Wen Emperor period There is a template, but this dynasty has further developed the system of equalizing the land and spreading the land into the mu, this is the good governance of the peasants through the ages, must not be repeated because there is a problem in the middle, we should learn lessons from Wang Anshi's reforms, pay attention to the bottom politics, prevent the good law from being vicious, and strengthen the supervision It is best to establish a system. It really can't be done, and the monks and rich businessmen can't suffer the people anymore.

On the issue of troops, he pointed out that the blow to the people's livelihood is fatal, and this should be strictly guarded against today, and he agreed that the official family left tens of thousands of troops in Yanyun and Hedong, after all, it is also important to maintain public order and stability after the war. Furthermore, he believes that the most likely to cause trouble in recent years are the ethnic minorities in the southwest, such as the pious thieves on the Jiangnan West Road, where the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and rebellion is a tradition, so it is best to garrison Jiangxi and other places with the 10,000 troops in front of the imperial camp with the best military discipline, cooperate with the local education and barbarians, and slowly weaken the authority of the Tusi and change the fetters into actual control.

When Zhao Guanjia saw this, he had already decided that this was at least a Tanhua, good guy, isn't this the Song Dynasty version of "changing the land and returning to the stream"?

In the end, he also said that it is not advisable to be noble and cheap, but it is the theme of the new era to be civil. But to improve the status of the warriors, especially can no longer engage in any assassination to fill the army, the fierce general starts from the soldiers, whether it is the people or the soldiers, they must respect the soldiers, and the imperial court should also set up a system, and the soldiers who are not good at studying limit the room for rise. Because the years after Jingkang fully showed that the commanders and ministers who studied were generally more disciplined, such as Yue Fei and Han Shizhong, who later woke up, the opposite typical is Yang Zheng who skinned people.

Finally, he added that he could not cover everything, and could only write down the suggestions that he thought would be useful on the test paper.

This is really not modest, because he did not go into depth about the loopholes in the field of military merit.

But Zhao Guanjia is still very satisfied, there is no ancestral throne in the whole article, and it is all talked about from the perspective of people's livelihood and politics, so not to mention that it is okay to be literate, just with this attitude, he said: "This person should be the champion." "There is no way, he worked hard for ten years, developed the original criticism of the two saints, and finally changed the thinking of some elites.

In other words, Zhao Jiu sat there and looked at this article, first amazed, then amazed, then laughed out of shape, and finally said such a sentence, which had already attracted the attention of the important ministers in the palace, and I didn't know what kind of article it was.

And after Zhao Jiu read it, he came back to his senses and didn't care at all, but just handed over this article to Prime Minister Lu Haowen to read. Lu Gongxiang glanced at ten lines, and after reading it, he didn't say anything, but just circulated it to Zhao Ding with a smile on his face, and then Zhang Jun, Li Guang, and even Lin Jingmo and others, and even Yue Fei didn't pull it down.

Except for Zhang Jun's slight objection that this humanistic pen is too rigid, everyone unanimously praises it, because raising questions is not the point, the point is that the problem is raised and the solution is attached, which has been tacitly understood in the center of "utilitarianism". Han Shizhong and other generals were even more convinced by his judgment.

As a result, the minority obeyed the majority, and since the Son of Heaven and the Emperor jointly agreed that this person was the first place in the first class of the current palace examination, the officials of the Ministry of Rites present no longer hesitated, and directly opened the name and copied the name list...... is a native of Yueqing County, Wenzhou, who is called Wang Shipeng.

Lu Benzhong on the side couldn't help but roll his eyes, acquaintances, they all like to write poetry. But it's not appropriate to say much on this occasion. As a result, this famous minister was promoted to the Jinshi nineteen years in advance, and even his ranking did not change, and he was still the champion. It can be seen that this cone is in the bag, no matter whether you meet a faint monarch or a bright monarch, you can naturally come out.

In the afternoon, with all the eight hundred and twenty-two articles delivered, a group of quasi-jinshi were either nervous or confident to go out of Xihuamen and return to Taixue, seeing that they had to wait a few more days for the list to be released, but they didn't know that in the imperial palace here, the frivolous officials and important ministers of the Great Song Dynasty had already obtained the rough results from Jane.

The first and second classes are Jinshi and first, the third and fourth classes are Jinshi origins, and the fifth class is the same Jinshi origin.

In addition to the top five, the ranking itself is actually not very important. The important thing is that you don't fall off the list, after all, the official family said that only 600 people will be selected, so even Zhao Ding can't add one more.

But this problem doesn't seem to be too big, because in fact, there are always some people whose level is really poor, and I don't know if it's a problem with on-the-spot performance, so everyone is not so entangled.

It is worth mentioning that among the several little prodigies, only Fan Chengda successfully became a third-class jinshi at the age of fourteen. The other two, just continue to study in college.

In this regard, Zhao Guanjia expressed his calmness, the palace test is a strategy, not poetry, and children who do not have too much life experience and feel emotion often suffer, which is also the reason why Yue Fei and Qu Duan were generally favored back then, otherwise these people would not have been dozens of years old before they entered the Shi and the first.

And Li Xiuzhi's success relied on answering the question about the heroes and strengths in the Taihang Mountain Righteous Army, ranking first in the second class, and Zhao Fen, who had followed his father's counselor's text for many years, was slightly worse than him, third in the second class, and eighth among the eight hundred people, looking at Zhao Ding's face, I believe he was already very satisfied.

On the contrary, it was the next problem of sorting the first class, which was a bit of a headache for Zhao Guan's family.

Because there are actually two names mixed in this, Zhao (Wanyan) Yong and Liang Su.

Junchen felt very strange for a while.
