Chapter 66 Candidates for Examiners

When the envoys of various countries are ready to return to China, the sensational examination will also begin.

However, in just a few days, the inn in Yecheng was already overcrowded.

Many talented scholars who were not far from Yecheng heard the news of the examination and went to Yecheng with their salutes.

When Xu Ling's car left the city gate, he saw many soldiers with small burdens rushing to the city gate.

Due to the large flow of people, the city gate officials had to issue an ultimatum, and horses and other pack animals and chariots could not enter the city gate during this time.

So when they arrived at the gate of the city, they could only stop, salute, and hurriedly squeeze into the flow of people pouring into Yecheng.

Among them, there are some children of the family, and they are also crowded with some commoners and poor scholars.

No one is dirty, smelly, bitter and tired, and at this time, it is the most important thing to enter Yecheng quickly to obtain the qualification for the examination.

Less than two days before the exam, the registration was about to be announced, and some scholars came to ask for a re-report, but it was to no avail.

Because these places have to be reported to the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Officials one day in advance, and when the list of examiners is announced on the next day, everything is a foregone conclusion.

At this time, there are still two days before the limit, and there are not a few people who come with stars and moons.

Who would miss out on such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? If you pass the examination, then it will be tantamount to ascending to the sky in one step, and you will no longer be a white body, but you can also go out to worship the prime minister, waist gold and purple.

Even if the road ahead is long, they have to come.

Xu Ling's carriage slowly paced out of the crowded crowd, looking at the faces below that were young or old, full of wind and frost but still full of energy, and his heart was infinitely emotional.

The hand of the Qi master not only accepted a group of talents, but the most important thing was to make all the scholars in the Qi realm return to their hearts.

Xu Ling has no doubt that once the news spreads to the Southern Dynasties and the Northern Zhou Dynasty and spreads all over the world, then the Northern Qi Ye will become the place where the people of the world yearn for reading.

[This is what people's hearts want......] Xu Ling lowered the curtain of the car, and such an idea came to his mind.

After all, Xu Ling's knowledge is broader, in his opinion, Lord Qi is not only doing this because he needs the cold door to balance the family, but the most important purpose is to show the bearing of the Northern Dynasty and the sea!

As far as the facts are concerned, although there are talents among the poor families, they are worse than the family.

Because the resources, education, and edification obtained by the children of the family since childhood are incomparable to the children of the poor family.

Regardless of vision and ability, in general, they are better than those of poor families.

Even if the master of Qi opens the examination, it can be predicted whether the accepted poor scholars can be better than the sons of the family.

If the Lord of Qi puts the sons of the family and the children of the poor family in one class, then the winning chance of the family is very big.

But the Lord of Qi didn't do this, he distinguished the family from the poor family and examined it.

The family must show the certificate of clan and related people to obtain the examination qualification, and those who do not have the above conditions are uniformly divided into the ranks of ordinary scholars.

It is said that there are different proportions of admission, and there are fixed places in the family, so you can see what the bias of the Qi master is.

This seems fair to both sides, but it is actually unfair to the Maison.

The number of places in the poor family is limited, which means that the family can only compete with each other, so the final result is that a large number of family members will be named Sun Shan, but the back door will be opened for the children of the poor family.

With this play, Northern Qi will gain the support of a large number of local wealthy families!

Because most of these scholars came from the ranks of the landlord class, and no matter in which dynasty, the family may be the existence at the top of the pyramid, but these rising common people are the backbone of a country, and with the support of these people, it is equivalent to pushing the cohesion of the dynasty to a peak!

[It seems that the enemy of the Southern Dynasty is not the only Zhou, and in a few years, Qi will also become a big problem for the Southern Dynasty...... Originally, I wanted Qi to delay for a few more years, but now it seems that Qi faintly has the image of Zhongxing, so is it the right choice for the Southern Dynasty and Qi to form an alliance? 】

Xu Ling sat alone in the carriage, pondered for a long time, and finally sighed,

[The Northern Zhou Dynasty is powerful, and the current Lord of Qi seems to be a generation of British masters, where is the future of the Southern Dynasty? What the hell should it ...... Go? 】

The carriage swayed, new shoots sprouted from the trees by the roadside, and a sparrow stopped on the branch, turned its head to look at the silent procession, and flew away with a "chirp".

In the Zhaoyang Palace, Gao Wei was reviewing the recitals, and a Jinyi lieutenant was reporting some recent news.

Gao Wei raised his head when he heard the interest, "Oh, Zhao Xiangguo really told Yuan Wenyao like this?" ”

"Jinyi inquired clearly, there could be no mistakes......"

"Then what is Yuan Wenyao's reaction?"

"Yuan Shilang didn't say anything, it is said that the door was closed for a few days, and there were no outsiders......"

The pen in Gao Wei's hand paused, "Could it be that he has a grudge against me?" ”

Captain Jinyi saw a slight sweat on his forehead, and said: "This is not true, but Yuan Shilang has indeed been depressed for a while, and I heard from our people that he has been thinking about it in the past few days......"

Cushman didn't know if it was okay, and secretly thought in his heart:

[Will Yuan Wen be pressed too hard like this, talent ......is rare, it seems that it is time to give him a chance to prove himself. 】

Gao Wei thought about it, asked the captain in brocade to step back first, summoned Feng Zicong in, and asked:

"Are you ready for the examiner?"

Feng Zicong replied: "Your Majesty, the minister and Zhao Xiang have already drawn up the list......

"Bring it in."

Feng Zicong presented a roster, and Gao Wei opened it to see that it was all deleted and deleted, changed and changed. At the beginning, the examiner wrote 'Pingjian' in a blue pen.

"You chose him?" Cushman asked, "I remember he's fifty or sixty years old, right?" Can the energy keep up? ”

Feng Zicong replied: "Your Majesty, the ministers and others believe that the matter of the examination is very important, and it is necessary to select an old and virtuous person to serve as the chief examiner, so that they can convince the public."

Pinggong is young and smart, studied under the Great Confucian, and has a heroic spirit, and is a veteran who followed Emperor Shenwu back then.

Moreover, Pinggong has made many achievements in office, and the local people have erected monuments to praise his virtues, which shows his talent and virtue.

Therefore, we believe that letting Ping Gong serve as the chief examiner will definitely be able to convince everyone! ”

Gao Wei turned his eyes to see the position of the adjutant, and saw that the number one was Lang Mao, and Gao Wei also had an impression that the newly promoted Taichang Siqing.

It is said that he was a young genius like Xu Ling, who recited "Sao" and "Ya" at the age of seven, and was a very prestigious scholar at that time, but Gao Wei remembered that it seemed that he was not much younger than Ping Jian......

So he said with a smile: "The main examiner and the deputy examiner are all old people, and they have prestige, but they are old after all, so many affairs, can they take care of them?" ”

Feng Zicong couldn't help but make it difficult, listening to His Majesty's intentions, he was not completely satisfied with this, but if he wanted to change it now, there would be no time.

So I had to bite the bullet and ask, "Then how do you choose the examiner?" ”

Gao Wei thought for a while and said, "Hasn't Yuan Wenyao been quite idle recently?" In my opinion, it is appropriate for him to be the deputy examiner......

Well, it's settled, Pingjian is the main exam, Lang Mao and Yuan Wenyao are the deputy examiners, and Yuan Wenyao is responsible for all the affairs during the examination, so be it. ”

[Your Majesty, this is a chance for Deyuan! ] 】

Feng Zicong immediately understood, "The minister obeys the order......
