Chapter 152: The Son of Heaven is angry
The big cadres will take the test once every three years.
It is usually held in February and March of the second year of the township examination, because it coincides with the early spring, also known as the spring festival.
The examination is coordinated by the chief examiner, and there are presidents and vice presidents, as well as a full 18 examiners, all of whom are served by Hanlin Academy.
It is divided into three sessions, and both the prisoners and the lifters can participate.
There are three three-day exams.
Therefore, this is not only a test of knowledge, but also a competition of physical fitness.
Even the food had to be brought by yourself.
If it is a rich family, it is better, and it will definitely be able to complete the delicious food.
If you are born poor, you will scatter all your family wealth and go to Beijing to take the exam.
In the end, I am afraid that I can't even afford the money for this meal, so I can only bring two cold buns to satisfy my hunger.
If you are not careful, if you occasionally feel a cold, you will have to take the exam with illness.
If you don't play well, you won't have a chance to win the title of the gold list.
Therefore, in these years, it is really difficult to come from a poor family.
What's more, this is still under the rule of Emperor Renxuan.
If it were changed to 30 years ago, it would really be a world of cannibalism.
With the passage of time, candidates from all over the country gathered in Qiandu.
The nine-day examination began!
After the examination, the candidates still could not leave Qiandu.
Instead, he had to wait for the release of the list, and those who fell behind Sun Shan left here.
If you are in high school, you will also have to take the temple exam.
In the prelude to the Jinluan Palace, the good name is said, the protégé of the Son of Heaven!
After the completion of the palace examination, according to the individual's performance, he will be given the Jinshi background or the same Jinshi background.
At this point, this spring festival is over.
The candidates also have a reputation for themselves, and then they wait.
and other vacancies in the imperial court.
If you are born in a family, have the help of your family, and have a little luck, you will be able to have a position on your head in a short time.
If you are from a poor background and have bad luck, I am afraid that some will wait.
Is it realistic?
It can only be said that this is the way of the world.
The candidates' examination papers will be sealed with their names and places of origin, and then sent to the Hanlin Academy, where they will be jointly marked by the chief examiner, the president and vice president, and 18 examiners.
After the marking is completed, it cannot be opened.
Instead, they had to be blindly ranked, and then sent to the Qiande Palace, which was opened by today, so as to eliminate the fact that officials were corrupt because of bribery from the root.
During the reign of the previous emperor, the dynasty collapsed, officials were sold, and the imperial examination was reduced to a gilded field for the children of the family.
After Emperor Renxuan ascended the throne, he completely purged the universe and rectified the dynasty.
At the same time, it also shows the importance attached to the imperial examination.
This is an important way for the imperial court to select talents, and it is much more efficient than methods such as filial piety and honesty.
So I have to pay attention to it.
Therefore, the imperial court has always had zero tolerance for bribery and fraud by officials in the imperial examination.
It is a capital offense to be caught!
A few years ago, there was a bad case, because of bribery, five children of the family were sent to the top ten in one go.
Later, it was investigated, and Emperor Renxuan was angry and directly ordered to exterminate the family!
It can be seen that this matter is so bad that the imperial court attaches great importance to it.
Time often slips through the fingers inadvertently.
In the blink of an eye, it is a half-moon scene.
The examination was successfully concluded, and the test papers of the candidates from all over the country have also been approved, and the rankings have been arranged, and they have been sent to the Qiande Palace, waiting for the judgment of the Son of Heaven.
……
Early morning.
The sun rises and the sun shines.
In front of the Qiande Palace, the shrill and piercing voice of the shouting eunuch sounded again:
"Princes, go to court!"
Immediately, the Gongon and the princes rushed in.
Emperor Renxuan still sits on the dragon chair, even if he is old, he is still not angry and mighty, and he looks full of momentum.
No one dared to underestimate this emperor, and without him, the kingdom called Qian would have disappeared into the dust of history thirty years ago.
The kings of Zhongxing in all dynasties can often be compared with the founding masters.
And Emperor Renxuan ascended the throne at a time of crisis, and the internal shock was small, purging the world, and protecting the mountains and rivers.
It stands to reason that this is already a good achievement.
But there is still a big distance from becoming the king of Zhongxing, and the Taizu Gao Emperor and the overlord Xiang Canglan back then.
But if he can accumulate strength, destroy Dayan and Daliang, recover the old mountains and rivers, and restore the territory of Daqian to its peak.
Well, it must be almost.
It's a pity that Emperor Renxuan is old.
No one knows if he will ever have this time.
"Something to start, nothing to retreat." It was still the sharp voice of the eunuch who shouted salute.
"Your Majesty, some time ago, Weichen served as the chief examiner of Chunqiu, coordinating many matters for the examination."
"Now, the spring season has passed, and the candidates' examination papers have also been blindly reviewed, and I ask Your Majesty to review them." As soon as the eunuch's voice fell, Hu Yan stood up and said.
It's just that as soon as he said this, the expressions of the people around him changed, and the eyes that looked at him were slightly pity.
Yang Huai and Zhang Lang still look like old gods, as if this matter has nothing to do with the two of them, and they don't care.
Yang Shao, who was standing slightly back, had the corners of his mouth raised, and there was joy in his heart.
Wei Qing couldn't bear it, and was ready to give advice at any time to protect his proud disciple.
On the dragon chair, when Emperor Renxuan heard this, he nodded and said, "Submit all the exam papers." ”
An order was given, and soon someone sent the exam papers.
This is a test paper that has been ranked, but the name and place of origin are still sealed.
According to the laws of the Great Qian, only Emperor Renxuan was qualified to open the seal in front of his ministers to show justice.
"Hand over the scroll of tribute first."
When the attendant eunuch heard this, he hurriedly handed over an examination paper.
After Emperor Renxuan, in front of dozens of pairs of eyes below, he tore the seal open.
Then, when he saw the weather-beaten emperor, he frowned.
Wei Qing's heart froze, and then his heart was full of doubts.
Eighty percent of these tributes are northerners.
But isn't that normal?
In the past three years, aren't all tributes from the north?
Why is Your Majesty frowning?
Even Yang Huai, who pretended to have nothing to do with himself and hung high, was a little puzzled in his heart at the moment.
It stands to reason that even if Hu Yan is to be punished, His Majesty should not make trouble at this time.
There was silence in the hall for a long time, and Emperor Renxuan finally put down the exam paper and said, "Take the second class exam paper." ”
However, who would have thought that after reading the examination papers of the second grade, Emperor Renxuan's brows furrowed even tighter.
"The rest! Take the rest of the exam papers! ”
The ministers obviously felt that Emperor Renxuan at this moment seemed to be holding back a fire in his heart.
For a while, the ministers trembled, and they didn't dare to speak.
In the huge Qiande Palace, for a while, there was only the sound of Emperor Renxuan flipping through the examination papers.
After a long time, Emperor Renxuan put down all the exam papers, and his face was already iron-blue.
sneered: "Hu Yan, are you guilty?" ”
Hu Yan has been in the officialdom for a few years, where can he not hear the anger in Emperor Renxuan's words.
For a while, he could only endure the surprise in his heart, knelt on the ground, and said in fear:
"Weichen is stupid, I don't know what is wrong, please ask the Holy Wisdom to learn."
"You are so bold, you dare to cheat for personal gain!"
