Chapter 218: The Palace Test III (Two in One)
In the inconspicuous corner on the side of the palace gate, Song Huan was sitting at the wheel of the mule cart and waiting.
Ah Di looked around, and when he saw Song Huan, he called Fu Yuanzhi to walk forward quickly, and got into the carriage at once.
Song Huan had only arrived for a short time, and just wanted to ask about the exam, Ah Di hurriedly said: "Sister, if you have anything to say, let's go back and talk about it, hurry back, I'm so uncomfortable." โ
Song Huan: "......"
After returning to Song's house and having dinner, Ah Di and Fu Yuanzhi both went back to the room and wrote down the strategy they wrote today.
After Fu Yuanzhi and the others wrote down their strategies, Song Huan came in with a small snack.
Song Huan has dealt with the young ladies in the palace kitchen these days, and occasionally comes back with some delicious food.
Song Huan asked, "How is it?" โ
Fu Yuanzhi and Ah Di exchanged glances with each other, and looked back and forth several times, and both of them felt that the other party wrote well.
Fu Yuanzhi said: "It shouldn't be too bad. โ
Song Huan didn't expect the two of them to be champions, and it would be good if the knowledge gained by the study tour could make up for the shortcomings in Yangjiang Mansion.
Song Huan said: "Relax after the exam, you have done your best, and God will leave the rest." โ
Brother took a bite of a snack and asked, "Sister, will you still go to King Sheng's Mansion when we pass the exam?" โ
Song Huan thought for a while and said, "Let's wait for your results to come out." โ
If the situation caused by today's disaster is still very bad, it is always wrong to save more money.
When Ah Di and Fu Yuanzhi have jobs, she only needs to earn enough money she wants, and she will be liberated at that time.
Song Huan was excited just by thinking about it.
Song Huan came back to her senses happily, and saw the two people opposite looking at her steadily.
Song Huan added: "It's up to you to do your work then." Now that there are so many refugees out there, we can't just rely on your little money. โ
Ah Di pursed his lips, it seems that there is still some distance to the goal of giving Sister A a good life.
He will honestly copy books tomorrow, and he will be idle when he is idle.
Song Huan looked at the tall brother, and suddenly reacted, the brother is now seventeen.
Recently, Ah Di has been smoking a lot, and he is already a handsome young man.
Song Huan suddenly thought of a question.
At this age, you can get married here.
If Ah Di is caught as a son-in-law......
In this case, she can't continue to work, if she lets her future in-laws know that she is working for King Sheng as a guard, I don't know if the other party will have a complaint, and she can't embarrass her brother.
Song Huan looked at Ah Di and then at Fu Yuanzhi, she didn't say what she thought in her heart.
In fact, Fu Yuanzhi and Ah Di are in a similar situation.
Fu Yuanzhi is still single now, and he looks good, if he is caught by a young lady from a high-ranking official family when he is parading the streets, it is not impossible.
This is a chance for Song Huan to give Fu Yuanzhi a chance to regret it.
It can also be said to be Song Huan's temptation.
Promoted to get rich and died his wife.
She didn't want to make herself a resentful woman, so instead of this, it was better for everyone to be okay and when everything was in time.
Song Huan's sense of security has never been given by others, but by himself.
In the past few years, the two have not had excessive contact, and they are purely in love.
It's a bit too much to say that you can't do without each other.
Song Huan is actually quite ruthless in his bones.
If Fu Yuanzhi really chose someone else, she would have blessed her.

Inside the palace
The examiner had already read all the papers, and Wu Anhou had ten test papers in front of him that they felt could be ranked in the top.
Wu Anhou looked at each copy one by one, frowned, why didn't the test that he thought was written very well be in it?
Wu Anhou leaned back, pulled his face and looked at these courtiers, they were all officials who had been selected by the first emperor to select the test papers, and they were quite experienced and qualified, Wu Anhou was too lazy to care about disaster relief, so he didn't change people.
Who knows, if you don't change people, you will give them a chance to play tricks.
He looked at it carefully, and the names of the people on these ten volumes, except for that Huiyuan, were all children of several high-ranking officials in the capital.
Wu Anhou retracted his eyebrows, suppressed his temper and said, "What do you think of Benhou's eyes?" โ
The revisers looked at each other, not knowing why Wu Anhou suddenly asked about his eyes.
After hesitating for a while, one of the courtiers stood up and said, "Master Hou, you have practiced martial arts all year round, your body is strong and burly, and your eyes are naturally clear and bright. โ
Wu Anhou raised his eyebrows and made a look of sudden understanding.
Who knew that the reversal of the front and back was only a breath, and I saw Wu Anhou laughing, and suddenly slapped on the table, making a huge noise.
Fortunately, he controlled his strength, otherwise the whole table would have been smashed in half by him.
As soon as the loud noise came out, several officials trembled and immediately knelt down.
Wu Anhou's voice was full of coldness, and he said: "Since it is not Benhou's problem, it is your eye problem!" โ
Several courtiers immediately bowed their heads.
One of them boldly said: "Master Hou, these ten volumes are the best in terms of answers, content, writing, etc., and the ministers don't know what they did wrong, so please show it to Master Hou." โ
Wu Anhou sneered and said indifferently: "What Benhou wants is someone with real talent and hard work, not someone who can only write a good hand, make a good poem, and say those high-sounding and unrealistic words. โ
"What the people need are officials who do practical things, not officials who only know how to flatter and flatter day by day, and do not do the slightest! Since the beginning of the dynasty, the most important thing in the imperial court is the officials who have a vegetarian meal! โ
"Look at what you gave Benhou?!"
"Is Ben Hou reading the words on this? Can his good words and poems bring food to the people? Or can you bring clothes for the people!? โ
"Look what this says! Empty talk is all empty talk! I know that these words are unrealistic! And those of you who have read poetry and books, can still put this unrealistic volume here? You still think he can be in the top 10!? โ
"Ben Hou looks at your level is nothing more than that, you don't have to go to court in the future!"
Wu Anhou said a lot of things on it, and several officials only blushed, but when Wu Anhou said that he would not use it to go to court, their attitude changed sharply.
"Master Hou! Master Hou! You can't do this! We're all veterans! It's always been this way! The same was true during the reign of the first emperor! You ......"
Wu Anhou directly kicked the stool next to him away.
The room fell silent in an instant.
The people who were preparing to resist were as quiet as chickens in an instant.
Wu Anhou was satisfied.
"The first emperor has passed away, you miss him, you go and accompany him, come on, drag it down."
The other officials just watched as the official was dragged down like this.
The official's mouth was covered and he couldn't even cry out for mercy.
It was Wu Anhou's subordinates who pulled it out, and they knew it well.
The other officials were like chicks in a chicken coop for slaughter, trying to shrink their existence, shaking like a sieve.
Marquis Wu Anguang looked at the people on the ground coldly, and said, "Who else wants to accompany the first emperor?" Ben Hou will be this good person and send you there today, so that the first emperor will not be too lonely. โ
The others didn't dare to say a word.
When they encounter such a hard stubble, what can they say, to be able to return home safely, it is already good to be safe and secure.
It is impossible for Wu Anhou to read all the more than 200 volumes by himself, and seeing that these people have been scared into being so honest and obedient, he said: "Give you another chance, show Ben Hou again, and hand it in again, if it is not to your liking, you know the result!" โ
"By the way, those ones can go straight home."
Wu Anhou ordered a few old courtiers who were already in their fifties.
"Everyone is this age, their eyes can't see clearly, it's useless to stay, get out."
The few old courtiers who were pointed out didn't dare to make a mistake, and the people who would pretend to be dressed on weekdays now seemed to be ten years younger, and they hurriedly got up and saluted and retreated.
The people who stayed behind did not dare to come out, and they were stunned and froze in place.
Wu Anhou looked at them one by one, like quails, and said angrily, "What are you doing stupidly?" Watch the play! Just go! โ
When the courtiers received the order, they quickly returned to the desk, and took out the papers that had been placed before and read them carefully.
Their goal now is to take out all the things that are well written and have the nature of doing practical things.
They don't understand what kind of people Wu Anhou thinks are doing practical things, so they can only take out all the articles of this nature, check them one by one, and exclude them if they are already determined to be useless.
Wu Anhou looked at the volume that was resubmitted, compared with the previous one, except for Hui Yuan, everything else had changed.
Seeing this, Wu Anhou finally felt more comfortable, he picked up the first volume, read it again, and said: "This Lin Yongsheng answered well, but it's a pity." โ
As for why it's a pity, Wu Anhou didn't say it.
The examiner below has the scene of Fang Cai, and with Wu Anhou's words, his heart fluctuates up and down, which is more nervous than their own palace exam!
Could it be that Wu Anhou still thinks that they are favoritism?
It's okay to lose your temperament, but it's not okay to lose your life.
Now that the children of those high-ranking officials have been left behind by them, maybe there are really one or two of them who have real talents and real learning. However, they didn't dare to take the risk of doing a second time, so they could only let those few articles drown in the second-grade volumes.
Now no one dares to cheat.
Then Wu Anhou looked at a few more photos, and stopped when he saw Fu Chuanlin and Song Yi.
"These two rolls are very similar!"
Wu Anhou immediately saw the information of the two people, "They came out of the same place." โ
"Yes, yes, although their content is somewhat similar, but the focus is different." The examiner wiped the beads of sweat dripping from the corners of his forehead, he wanted to remove one, but in the end he didn't dare, and handed it in for Wu Anhou to evaluate himself, so that they would not have much risk.
Wu Anhou looked at these two volumes carefully, and it happened that he had an impression of these two people, and they both looked good, but Fu Chuanlin looked a little old.
Song Yi is not bad, he has such an opinion at a young age, and he has something to say, unlike those articles that are empty and empty.
That's the kind of person he wants.
"Song Yi can be pointed out as the champion, Li Yuchang is the role model, as for the flower...... Just Fu Chuanlin. Wu Anhou's eyes swept over the several test papers on the table one by one, and finally settled on Fu Yuanzhi.
In his opinion, although these two articles are somewhat similar, they are a complete closed loop when taken together, except for Li Yuchang, who is still a little capable, everyone else is inferior.
Moreover, he always felt that this Fu Chuanlin still had a lot of things not written, revealing a slight edge that would not be covered up, but he was very clever to avoid the taboo of these old things, this kind of person knew at a glance that he was not rigid, and if he used it properly, hehe, these silverfish are waiting!
An official at the bottom said tentatively: "Master Hou, is this champion too young?" This is unfair to the other tributes. โ
Wu Anhou said: "He is not the first, didn't there be a Mo Xuanqing in the previous dynasty?" As for fairness? What fairness do you want if you don't have the ability? Why don't you say it's fair? โ
Is it okay to have a face?
The official was silently shut up by Wu Anhou.
The other officials also disagreed, and when they heard Wu Anhou come back like this, they didn't dare to squeak again.
Of course, there are a few people who are hostile to this person, and they secretly gloat.
Wu Anhou is not the first emperor.
A martial artist, even if he says it, he plays the piano to the cow.
If you make the other party unhappy, you may also have your head on the ground.
Keeping quiet is the best thing to do.
The second day is April 21, the day the results are announced.
The Gongshi and others came to the gate of the palace early.
Under the arrangement of the eunuchs, everyone stood in two columns according to the rank of Chunqiu.
At this time, inside the temple of Baohe.
According to the rules of the first emperor's time, today the emperor and the ministers should discuss the ranking of the new science and technology scholars in the palace.
However, Wu Anhou is not the emperor, so this process was set in advance by Wu Anhou last night.
The ranking was read out by the eunuch beside him.
King Jing took in the appearance of the ministers who wanted to speak but couldn't stop talking.
This is not a discussion here in Wu Anhou, but a notice.
Because of the lack of this deliberation, the tributes did not wait long.
Wu Anhou ignored the officials below who were dissatisfied with him, they were unhappy, he was happy, he was in a good mood, and said directly to the people below: "Let the top ten come in without any opinions." โ
The ministers who were forced to close the microphone: "......"
If it weren't for the process that required them to be present, Wu Anhou could arrange these jinshi by himself.
At this time, Fu Yuanzhi and Ah Di, who were waiting outside, suddenly heard a loud voice from the inside out, as if there was an echo in the entire palace: "Xuan Li Yuchang, Song Yi, Fu Yuanzhi...... Lin Yongsheng, enter the hall!! โ
One after the other, one after the other, slowly reached the position where they were waiting.
Although it was far away, everyone could hear it clearly.
The people who were called by name didn't know why, but they all knew that it wasn't a bad thing.
Not all of the list called were the top 10 of the tributes.
Although the others were sad that they didn't have their own names, they barely smiled and watched the ten people who had left with the eunuch's guidance.
Fu Yuanzhi and Ah Di followed the team into the splendid palace.
This is their second visit, and the environment is very different both times.
On both sides stood ministers of the fourth rank and above wearing official uniforms, including military generals.
From the moment the ten people stepped through the temple gate, they could feel a pressure that could not be ignored.
Fu Yuanzhi and Ah Di barely managed to maintain their composure.
They have seen the approachable Lord Li Ying, and they have also seen the highly respected county school sacrificial wine, as well as the officials at the tea party and the literary meeting.
This is not the first time they have come into contact with officials, and they are still mentally prepared.
The magnificence of each official is controlled by the other party, depending on how they are willing to show it.
At this time, the officials were deliberately letting go of their momentum, coupled with the solemn and dignified environment, which made Fu Yuanzhi and others feel more substantial about the pressure.
Fu Yuanzhi and Ah Di lined up at the back, and Ah Di could see that a few people in front of him were sweating nervously.
Hundreds of eyes focused on ten people, where would ordinary people encounter this situation, not to mention that the object was a minister above the fourth rank.
Those are people they couldn't reach when they wanted to, people they could only know from other people's mouths.
Thank you to the comrades who voted for the recommendation yesterday~
