80. If you know your mistakes, change them, and your majesty will issue an edict for your own crimes
The examination room of the Gongyuan has been turned into a prison cell.
If you can test the first place, you will be closed in Tianzi A, and the second place will be closed in Tianzi B, and so on.
In the first imperial examination after the Great Cadre Reform Yuan Tianhe, there was such a rampant large-scale fraud, and the ministers moved together, and everyone was indignant.
If it is not handled well, it will be difficult to defeat Beimeng, and the prestige that has been saved will be damaged.
Well.... It seems that it is not difficult to defeat Beimeng.
If the prestige of the imperial court is damaged and irreversible, isn't there still Daqing in the northwest? Beat him again.
The ministers entered the Tribute Academy, and Zhao Zheng personally ordered people to organize a small group of twelve people to review the court, among which there was only Zhou Ji, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, an official from Jianghuai.
Zhao Zheng has been guarding the room of the review, and the three floors of the Red Feather Guard Tribute Courtyard are surrounded by water, and the clouds are condensed, and the entire Luoyi is as if there is no such place.
Ren Pingsheng had already sent a guard to target the mansions of various examiners, and once there was a change, it would be a matter of losing his head.
"Your Majesty, the results of the review are out."
Zhang Shijie is holding a knife, it is a treasure, he also participated in the review, although he is a muddy person, but he is not a pure warrior, he can't do the position of the secretary of the military department.
"Coming out?"
Zhao Zheng opened his eyes, and the room was full of review officials, their faces were solemn, and everyone stared with bated breath.
"Why are you so nervous?"
Zhao Zheng picked up the dossier: "What is the result?" ”
"Scholars from other states, make up for two percent...."Zhang Shijie was a little helpless, they were not from Huaizhou, and the Huaizhou scholars on the list still accounted for eighty percent of the quota.
"The articles of the Jianghuai scholars are really well done."
An official in Ganzhou seems to have accepted his fate, what else can he do?
They also didn't want the Jianghuai people to continue to grow bigger, and they were already very strict when they re-read, but the result was still the same.
Also, according to the new rules that Gan Weili came up with, it is unlikely that there will be cheating in this imperial examination, and there is no secret record of the past.
At the most.... It was Jianghuai's examiner, and when he was grading, he was a little loose on his hands, and he couldn't make a big mistake, it could only be said that it was human nature.
"Maybe it's a leak?"
Zhang Shijie guessed: "If the examiner leaks the question in advance, Jianghuai Shizi has already prepared, and he can naturally do a good article, and he will be better than the scholar from other states, which is normal." ”
"Well, I don't rule out this possibility, wait for the news of the clothed guard."
Zhao Zheng nodded, it was indeed leaked, I leaked it.
But in a moment, Ren Pingsheng also came.
Ren Pingsheng saluted, and then said, "I've seen Your Majesty." ”
"How?" Zhao Zheng looked deeply at the dusty Ren Pingsheng...... The coat on his body is not damaged, it is made by him himself, and he has feelings.
Ren Pingsheng lowered his head and was silent for a moment before he said, "There is no evidence." ”
At this moment, the ministers who participated in the review couldn't help but have a feeling of being discouraged.
Mom, doesn't this mean that the Jianghuai people are smarter than us? Are we outlanders really stupid?
"Go on." Zhao Zheng said softly.
Ren Pingsheng immediately said: "All the scholars who shouted that the Jianghuai scholars were cheating, the ministers have been strictly interrogated, and most of them are vague, but they can't come up with evidence. ”
"The examiners from Jianghuai have also been personally interrogated, and from their words, the ministers can conclude that there is no favoritism."
"They do have dealings with the scholars who participated in the examination, but they are all the whole correspondence between the elders of the same township and the juniors."
"It's a bit inappropriate, but I really haven't done anything too excessive."
Zhao Zheng frowned: "You mean, there is no problem with the Jianghuai examiner and the Jianghuai scholar." ”
"That's true." Ren Pingsheng nodded, and trusted Lingyiwei's supervision ability: "It should be that the Jianghuai scholars won the question, and it happened that there were more Jianghuai examiners, thinking of the feelings of the countrymen, and raising a hand slightly, it caused the situation that the Jianghuai scholars dominated the list." ”
Zhou Ji breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, it wasn't our Jianghuai people who were playing favoritism, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, since there is no real evidence, it is better to lift the ban on the Tribute Academy!" I also want to give an explanation to the scholars, and use the results of the second review of the ministers as the list of the examination. ”
Zhao Zheng did not respond, but summoned Gan Weili and Kong Shuye.
Two people entered.
Zhao Zheng will review and review the results and tell them.
There was a shush and a cold question: "Two Aiqing, how are you doing in the Gongyuan these days?" ”
"Okay." Uncle Kong doesn't care at night, how good the Gongyuan is, you don't need to see the tigress at home, but unfortunately it has been found out now, and you can't continue to stay in the Gongyuan.
"Does Your Majesty have any wine?" Gan Weili just regretted: "There was a big oolong, although it is now thoroughly investigated, the fairness of the imperial examination will inevitably be affected, and the prestige of the imperial court will also be damaged. ”
Gan Weili's words were stable and stable, and there was not much difference from the situation he expected.
Now that the Jianghuai Party in the DPRK and China has achieved a major event, there is no need to do such a low-level thing as fraud to increase its power, and betting on the middle of the question to lead to domination is just a small problem under coincidence.
And the little emperor was still too impulsive this time, so he couldn't help but say it, so he detained the Jianghuai scholars and examiners, which was really unwise, and it was not his chance.
Zhao Zheng seemed to be a little annoyed: "Gan Qing is really for the country and the people, the matter has come to this point, I am really too impulsive and lack of consideration, so that I have sinned the test takers, Gan Qing can have a good remedy?" ”
Gan Weili said: "People are not sages, who can do nothing, if people make mistakes, it is not terrible, the most terrible thing is to know mistakes and not change." ”
"Even if it is an emperor, if there is a mistake, then correct it, it is good, even if it is a saint such as Emperor Jianyuan, he has also made a big mistake, but fortunately, he woke up in time and issued an edict that has been passed down through the ages."
"If you know your mistakes, you can correct them, but if you don't know your mistakes and don't correct them, then there will be more and more mistakes."
When everyone heard this, they were all stunned.
This is willing...... actually took out the Jianyuan Emperor of the previous dynasty.
Emperor Jianyuan was the first emperor to issue an edict against himself.
Now, although the little emperor is wise and martial, and he has personally conquered Beimeng, he is still too much worse than Emperor Jianyuan.
Emperor Jianyuan not only sent troops to Mobei many times, playing the prestige of the Han family, but also sent envoys to the Western Regions, communicated with various countries, created the Silk Road, and conquered Baiyue.
Even so, Emperor Jianyuan still issued an edict against himself, and the little emperor only fought Beimeng.
There was silence in the room.
Zhao Zheng finally spoke, looking very difficult: "I ..... Got it. ”
"Gan Qing, Kong Qing, let's go down first, the test results have not yet been released, so it is not appropriate to have too much contact."
"The minister retreated."
Gan Weili gave it up, and he knew that nothing would happen.
Earlier, the little emperor buried imperial silver everywhere, which really scared him, and later sold the house and turned his house upside down, and he was relieved a lot, but he lost too much silver.
But after all, I was relieved, and what I did on weekdays was not leaky, and there was no evidence left at all.
This imperial examination, although it was a bit unexpected, but it was also a gain, at least it hit the prestige of the little emperor, and the little emperor made such a fuss, but it chilled the hearts of Jianghuai scholars.
Gan Weili retreated, Zhao Zheng's expression suddenly changed, and he laughed and said: "This Gan Weili is talking about a high-sounding thing, but he just thought of his fellow villagers and raised his hand,"
When the remaining officials in the house heard this, they sighed in their hearts, good guy, where is Gan Weili giving advice, it is clear that he is fighting with His Majesty through the Jianghuai Township Party!
