Qianqing Palace.

"Your Majesty, what the northern people have done this time is indeed crude and unbearable, and there is really no one to be desired.

This generation is just dissatisfied in his heart and takes the opportunity to blackmail the court.

Fairness should be the first priority in the imperial examination.

His Majesty to learn to take the scholar, the high one enters, the only one who retreats, if they are all fortunate to enter, the way to take the scholar is destroyed, not only so that the latecomers are taken as an example, as soon as there is not in line with their own hearts, it is more unfair, so that the talented people are buried, and the treacherous ones are fortunate to enter, this is a great harm, in the opinion of the ministers, this generation should be severely punished, and the leader should be removed from the fame and imprisoned for life. ”

Liu Sanwu lowered his head and said.

"There are more than a dozen in the department, and there is indeed something wrong with not one in the department, or whether it is good or bad, take three or five to calm its heart."

Zhu Yuanzhang said.

He was also made very suddenly......

In fact, His Majesty the Emperor really didn't have the abundant energy he had before in the past two years, especially when Zhu Yunxi gradually grew up, and he actually didn't care about most things.

Although he knew the truth of the matter, he still hoped that it would be calmed down peacefully.

He has said that this is the step.

Just do it in moderation!

"Your Majesty, by all means, this matter is not just a few troubles, but Yang Feng instigated, the leader of the troubles Wang Wei is his cronies, when he was in Taiyuan, he gave him advice, Yang Feng was even more public, made a promise to him Jinshi. This time he was not admitted, he was angry and deliberately instigated to make trouble, thinking that he was trying to blackmail Yang Zizun, Han Kezhong, Jiao Sheng, Shi Li and others all colluded with him. Especially Na Shili, who even committed murder on the street and injured many people, how can this generation be so stubborn and stubborn, how can he take on the responsibility of educating the people. ”

Zhang Xin said.

Several other Hanlin who were summoned also chimed in.

"Your Majesty, the minister is not selfish, and only one of the tributes he has taken this time is from Huguang.

If the minister is selfish, how can he not take a few more Huguang people?

This generation only stops here. ”

Liu Sanwu said.

"Tantanon, you said that they stopped here, so how about we go in front of Your Majesty and take a look at their scrolls together?"

A voice suddenly rang out outside.

Everyone turned around, and then saw Yang Feng, who was carrying a big bag, walked in, walked straight to the middle of the hall, put the big bag on the ground, and took out a bundle of sealed rolls from it......

"Your Majesty, this is Han Kezhong, a son from Shandong."

He said.

"Bring it on!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said.

However, His Majesty the Emperor was visibly a little melancholy......

This bastard came to join in the fun, and it couldn't have ended easily.

The eunuch next to him hurriedly walked to Yang Feng, took the bundle of rolls with both hands, and then quickly held it in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, His Majesty the Emperor took it and opened it, took out the most critical strategy, looked at it there, and raised his head after looking at it for a while.

"Xuandu Inspectorate, Zuodu Imperial History and six Shangshu immediately enter the palace."

He said.

Outside, the brocade guards hurriedly ran to announce the summons.

"Take a few more copies!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Yang Feng simply took out Wang Shu, Jiao Sheng, and Shi Li, and His Majesty the Emperor looked at the strategies inside, but his expression was obviously getting more and more ugly, and Liu Sanwu lowered his head, as if he had nothing to do with him, but Zhang Xin and the others looked at each other from time to time, and the emperor raised his head after reading it, and then his eyes swept over them......

"You also go and pick some northerners, pick the best ones."

He said.

"Obey."

Zhang Xin hurriedly said.

Then he and a few Hanlin left in a hurry.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say anything, just sat there and closed his eyes to recuperate.

Soon the left capital of the Imperial Palace, Ru Yu, the secretary of the Ministry of Justice, Yu Xin, Zheng Yi, the military department of Qi Tai, the criminal department of Xia Shu, and the Ministry of Industry Yan Zhenzhi rushed one after another, in addition to the Zhao Zhao, there is also Xia Shu is a northerner, he is from Luoyang, Henan.

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang's proportion is still very fair, and the two northern nationals just control the supervision and justice, so as to stare at the southern ministers.

"Let's take a look at them all, this is the scroll that Ambassador Yang casually picked up in the Ministry of Rites, and it was still sealed when it came to my hands."

Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Then the eunuch hurriedly gave four copies to Bang Zhao, Ru Yu, Yu Xin, and Qi Tai, and Yang Feng took out a bunch of them from that big bag, in fact, he also took thirty copies, including the first and second in the original history of the Xia Bang, plus some of the top three. These brocade guards who came to help opened the seal, but there is no need to look at anything else, the key is the strategy, everyone is knowledgeable, just pick out the strategy and hand it over to these ministers. In the silent hall, the seven main ministers of the current imperial court watched silently, and Yang Feng stood there looking at Liu Sanwu, who stood there with his head bowed in a posture of wandering into the world.

At this time, Zhang Xin and others also returned.

However, they were stopped by the brocade guards, and each of them was holding some scrolls.

In this way, in a strange silence, the seven ministers finished reading what Yang Feng brought.

Ru Yu just wanted to speak, but Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand.

"Let them in!"

His Majesty the Emperor said.

Jin Yiwei immediately put Zhang Xin and the others in.

"Look at what they brought."

Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Zhang Xin and the others hurriedly opened the scrolls in their hands and then took out the strategy, and also handed it over to these ministers to see, they were obviously very confident, after all, five of the seven were southerners, even if they would not be openly partial, but there would always be a little. As long as a little bit is enough, there is a gap between the northern lifter and the southern lifter, Yang Feng just found thirty copies casually, it can be said that one out of dozens is the best, how can it be so likely to pick a good one?

Even if one or two copies are acceptable, as long as these ministers find fault with it a little.

Emperor......

The emperor knows what a fart!

Although he is a bit more literate now, he can barely write articles smoothly.

And he had to have a bunch of vernacular, and he couldn't do it if he quoted the scriptures, and the literary style was only limited to killing millions of soldiers in Jiangnan, so Zhang Xin and the others waited very confidently, and then in a silence, the seven ministers read all the strategies in the volumes they brought.

"Alright, you can talk."

Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Tyrant Zhao stepped forward very simply......

"Your Majesty, the minister impeached Zhang Xin, a bachelor, and Ji Shanbai of the Anwang Mansion for being disloyal."

He said.

Zhang Xin and the others were instantly anxious.

"Your Majesty, the minister has been wronged!"

They fell to their knees and cried out for injustice.

"Tell me, are they wronged?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the remaining seven Shangshu and said.

"Your Majesty, this generation is not wronged, in order to cover up his favoritism in favor of the south, this generation deliberately did not record the crime of the northern lifter to bully the king, and singled out the vulgar and unbearable ones in the northern lifter test paper, intending to deceive the saint, and his crime should be punished."

Ru Yu hurriedly said.

The other six chimed in.

Zhang Xin and the others were directly dumbfounded, this is different from what they imagined! Ru Yu is the boss of the southern Wenchen, and even Liu Sanwu was recommended by him, and his words mean that they have been completely abandoned.

"Wrong? You dogs still dare to shout injustice? Look at the thirty test papers that Ambassador Yang picked up casually, and then look at the ones you brought, do you think I am too old to be blind? Ambassador Yang took some casually, no matter which one of his articles is, they are worthy of a Jinshi, you go to choose, I also said to pick the best, but you picked these unsightly, saying that you are disloyal, and you still feel that you are wronged?

It seems that I treat you so well on weekdays that you think I can be bullied.

Including Liu Sanwu, they were all escorted to Jinyiwei and tortured me to see how many of their comrades they still had. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang shouted angrily.

He was really angry.

He didn't expect these people to be so faceless.

He's actually giving the steps.

Let them pick the best, and then Yang Feng will definitely have good and bad in his hands, so that he can pick a few copies from each side by himself, which can be regarded as his handpick, so he can send the northern lifters to satisfaction. And these people will find excuses to clean up slowly in the future, and say to the outside world that Liu Sanwu is old and does not have enough energy to miss, anyway, to avoid the contradiction between the north and the south from becoming open and sharpened, and to maintain even if it is only superficial harmony between the north and the south.

He was the emperor.

The emperor of the people of the world.

He must achieve a bowl of water in the north and the south, bridge the contradiction between the north and the south, and finally unite into a whole.

After being separated for almost three hundred years, it is not easy to have a chance to reunite, even if he gives some favoritism to the north, he must ensure this principle.

However......

He was pleasantly surprised to find that the test papers brought by Yang Feng were actually very good, especially Han Kezhong and the three of them really didn't say that the first class was the first, the second class was enough, and it was not the first time he had studied this, Da Ming had already taken four exams before, and he personally presided over each of the palace exams, and even those champions were hand-picked by him, how could he not know whether it was good or bad.

He may not be able to write, but he can still see the good and the bad.

So he could have picked some of these that Yang Feng brought.

Then wait for Zhang Xin and others.

Yang Feng picked it up casually, at most, he knew the name around him, but it must be good and bad, and then Zhang Xin picked the best, he could hand-pick both sides, and finally hand-picked twenty or thirty jinshi to the north, and the latter could sing the praises of virtue. However, he didn't expect that Zhang Xin and these people would actually treat him as a monkey, and all the people he brought were all he could see at a glance that he was deliberately picking the worst, and if he didn't kill people, it wouldn't be Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Your Majesty, Liu Sanwu is in his old age, and he will not torture according to the law."

Xia Shu hurriedly said.

At this time, those brocade guards had already poured in, and quickly held down Zhang Xin and the others.

As for Xia Shu......

Although he was very happy, he still had to show the magnanimity of the northern ministers at this time.

"I forgot, but I've already said it, so let's make an exception for him!"

Zhu Yuanzhang sneered.

"Thanksgiving!"

Liu Sanwu thanked him very calmly.

Then he walked straight outside, and those brocade guards did not drag out like Zhang Xin and the others, but followed him and let him go.

"Your Majesty, the minister is derelict in his duties, please forgive your majesty!"

Zheng Yi hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty.

"Are you guilty or not, wait until you interrogate them, and the decree will be based on Zhang Xianzong, a bachelor of Hanlin, to re-mark all the northern examination papers, and to re-determine the ranking of the examination."

Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Now it's just the end of the exam, so it can't be regarded as the end of this subject, so you just need to find a new examiner for the second time, and then re-set a batch of Gongshi who will take the exam, this errand is nothing more than looking for it from the Hanlin bachelor, and at present, he can trust, and the bachelor who can guarantee fairness is Zhang Xianzong.

The ministers hurriedly retired.

Zhu Yuanzhang sat there and looked at the roof very deeply......

"What did I do in history?"

He said suddenly.

"You killed Zhang Xin and the others Ling Chi, including that champion, in short, killed a lot, but this list of Jinshi is still kept, and then a group of them are tried separately, and all of them are taken from the north, which is known as the north and south list in history. After a few decades, your descendants established a division of regions, taking a fixed percentage of the north and south to take the jinshi, and then revised the southwest to list it separately, and finally divided it into three parts, each taking a fixed proportion. The specific operation seems to be that each person's test paper is marked separately which piece it belongs to, but the things to be examined, as well as the examiners who mark the papers, are the same, and this system has become a permanent system that has continued until the abolition of the imperial examination system. ”

Yang Feng said.

"So, the ones you found are actually all Beibang Jinshi?"

Zhu Yuanzhang sneered.

"Well, that Han Kezhong is actually the top of the North List, Wang Shu is the leader of the list, Jiao Sheng is Tanhua, including that Wang Wei is actually the top three in the North List, and Shi Li is the third in the second list."

Yang Feng said with a smile.

"Hmph, none of them are honest."

Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"Your Majesty, I actually want the imperial grandson to understand that civil officials are not harmless to humans and animals, they are just good at hiding, they really have no ability to rebel, but they will form a party for personal gain, and their reading of sages and sages does not make them more moral, in fact, their moral lower limit is not higher than a beggar on the street. Therefore, there is no essential difference between these Confucian scholars who keep saying the way of sages and any other literacy test, and what needs to be tested for the imperial examination should be real talents, not Confucian classics that have no real use. ”

Yang Feng said.

"Are you sarcastic about my refusal to reform the imperial examination?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"I'm just stating the facts.

But I'm still a little surprised, Liu Sanwu shouldn't be so stupid, although he is probably trying to leave a legacy for future generations, but this is also a bit risky, after all, you like to kill the whole family.

What did he take such a big risk for? ”

Yang Feng said in a deep voice.

He really didn't understand that Liu Sanwu dared to do this in history because Zhu Yunwen was already the crown prince, and when he was the prince, he helped Zhu Yunwen, so Zhu Yuanzhang would not kill him, he had to give his grandson some face, and Zhu Yunwen would also protect him. But now the crown prince is Zhu Yunxi, although the latter doesn't say that he is disgusted with him, but he doesn't care if he lives or dies, so he will take a big risk.

Zhu Yuanzhang can kill, and he likes to kill the whole family.

"Your grandson ......"

Yang Feng wanted to speak and stopped.

"I don't have to worry about my family affairs!"

Zhu Yuanzhang interrupted him very simply.

Obviously, His Majesty the Emperor also guessed.

"Ha, you can do whatever you like, I don't want to watch another good show."

Yang Feng said.

Then he picked up his empty bag and carried it away.

Later, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed.
