The questions of the policy discussion are still those three, which are quite sharp, and the candidates who can't answer them still can't answer them.

A cadre of important ministers, except for Zhou Chen, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, who was busy, the rest of Chen Xun, Wang Wen and others all came to the side of the examination room and stared at it in person.

These powerful ministers are also afraid, they can't have any more accidents, and there is no way to explain any more accidents.

The emperor is just too lazy to worry about it, but it's not that he won't get angry.

Chen Xun, Wang Wen and the others stood on the steps of Fengtianmen, their faces full of embarrassment.

According to normal reasoning, the majestic construction of the Forbidden City is to make people feel shocked and admired at a glance.

But now that the Fengtian Temple was burned to the ground, the emperor also asked the candidates to answer the questions in the square between the Fengtian Temple and the Fengtian Gate.

This large area of ruins made the candidates look at it, what will they think in their hearts?

The township examination is organized by the two Beijing and 13 provinces respectively, and the selected people will then enter Beijing to participate in the examination.

All the candidates from Beizhili came to Beijing to participate in the Shuntianfu Township Examination.

In response to the Tianfu Township Examination and Jiangxi Township Examination, the selected people were the most powerful, and the number of Jinshi was the largest in the subsequent examinations.

Shuntianfu Township Test, the number of follow-up Jinshi can only be regarded as average.

The candidates who participated in the Shuntianfu Township Examination in the first year of Jingtai were even more mediocre.

However, Zhu Qiyu's luck is so good: Daming Wei Ningbo Wang Yue, a native of the Daimyo Mansion of Beizhili, is twenty-four years old this year, and he happened to participate in this Shuntianfu Township Examination.

There are many good things, and Wang Yue has experienced a lot in the past few days. First saw the three strange strategies, then was frightened enough by the fire of the Gongyuan, and now he is facing the ruins of this Fengtian Temple in the square.

Although Wang Yue is still very young, he can also see that the court of the Ming Dynasty is not calm at all.

On the surface, it looks like it's all turbulent, and all kinds of strange things are happening one after another.

The undercurrent beneath the surface of the water is even more dangerous and unimaginable.

The most bizarre thing is that he was forced to stand in line before he even won the lift.

Let's take a look at the three policies of the emperor, on the battle of Luchuan, on the change of Tumubao, on the revival of the Ming Dynasty, and on the creation of a prosperous era.

After the discussion, this team will stand clearly.

What's even worse is that these test papers will be stored for a long time. Do you want to disagree with the fact that you expressed such and such an opinion? There are no doors.

What kind of stance you express in the Three Ways of Doctrine will be bound for almost a lifetime.

So don't look at three questions, just a few words, but the answer is extremely stressful.

It takes you to answer these three strategies in one day, and you can answer a few hundred words for each question, a few thousand words, or tens of thousands of words.

After two days of careful consideration, Wang Yue only took one morning to hand in the papers first and left the examination room.

In the afternoon, the rest of the candidates also handed in their papers one after another.

Then the officials of the Ministry of Rites stayed up all night to transcribe it, and after sealing it, they quickly whipped it and sent it to the emperor.

At noon the next day, when Zhu Qiyu came out to look at things, He Yi, Yue Zheng and others had already sorted out most of the exam papers.

Zhu Qiyu instructed: "You continue to read the papers, everyone reads the exam papers and picks out the good ones." ”

After that, Zhu Qiyu sat on the soft couch in a daze.

Yue Zheng asked, "Your Majesty, what is the standard for assessment?" ”

Zhu Qiyu replied with a smile: "The writing is outstanding, just say something." Most of them are young people, and it is not required that they have a deep and comprehensive understanding of the government.

Dealing with the government and politics, the knowledge in it is greater. Winning the Jinshi is just the beginning, and you still have to learn for decades.

In fact, there are many doorways, to be honest, I, the emperor, can't figure it out.

For example, water control, although I have heard Xu Youzhen talk so many times, I am still confused.

You're going to let me take care of the water myself, I'm going to make sure it's a mess.

Therefore, now the marking is not to see how mature and profound the candidates are, but to see whether they are manufacturable. ”

Yue Zheng nodded again and again, indicating that he understood.

In fact, Yue Zheng really understood that the emperor just wanted to select a group of talents who could clearly stand on the emperor's side and could cultivate and shape.

Zhu Qiyu continued to ask: "It was not easy for you to study and take exams back then, right?" ”

The few people sitting here, He Yi, Yue Zheng, Xu Zheng, and Huang Jian, are all young talents in their twenties.

Yue Zheng is still Tanhualang, and he has the most right to speak here, so he replied to the emperor with a wry smile: "What Your Majesty said is yes, although we all have some talent for reading, but back then, we were all head cantilevers and cones and thorns, which is not an exaggeration at all.

The days of studying have made us miserable, and many times we feel that we can't hold on.

Fortunately, I was able to go to high school in my twenties in one fell swoop, and it was also my fate. ”

Zhu Qiyu smiled: "I'm so ashamed of you guys to say that. If I want to participate in the imperial examination, I can't even pass the exam. ”

He Yi smiled and replied: "This is the same truth as what Han Xin said, Han Xin is good at generals, and Emperor Gao is good at generals." The same applies to this principle, the ministers are well-read and good at reading, and His Majesty is good at controlling hundreds of officials and controlling the overall situation.

The ministers master the arts, while the majesty masters the Tao.

The technique is small and the road is big, and it is easy to be proficient in the technique, but it is difficult to fit the way. So don't look at the ministers who are in their twenties and become Jinshi, but in fact, their talent is far inferior to Your Majesty. ”

Zhu Qiyu smiled and nodded, I don't dare to say anything else, He Yi's talent for sycophants is definitely above me. Although I coax the concubines to be happy with my sweet words every day, and my sycophant skills are also a must, it is obvious that there are people outside the world, there is a sky outside the sky, and a mountain is higher than a mountain.

The monarchs and ministers talked and laughed while reading the papers, but they were also quite comfortable.

By the afternoon, the exam papers had been marked.

He Yi, Xu Zheng, and Huang Jian all humbly resigned, and Yue Zheng made a summary.

Yue Zheng couldn't refuse, so he took out an exam paper and handed it over: "Your Majesty, half of the candidates who are roughly qualified for the examinees. This is outstanding in Chinese and clearly organized, accounting for 20%.

The comprehension of the government and politics is somewhat aura, and there are only more than 20 examination papers.

Only this one exam paper is innovative and insightful. All four of us think that this volume should be the first, and I respectfully ask Your Majesty to take a look at it. ”

Zhu Qiyu stretched out his hand and took the test paper.

In the past year, Zhu Qiyu has practiced lazy kung fu to the extreme.

There were thousands of people who participated in the Shuntianfu Township Examination, that is, thousands of exam papers, and in the end, Zhu Qiyu only read one of them.

This laziness is a big steal.

But Zhu Qiyu is not worried about missing talents.

He Yi, Yue Zheng, Xu Zheng, and Huang Jian each read the test papers. A single person may be missing, but it is unlikely that four people will look away at the same time.

After taking the test paper handed over by Yue Zheng, Zhu Qiyu read it carefully from beginning to end.

After reading it, I couldn't help but nod my head again and again.

Through the feedback of He Yi and others during the marking of the papers, it can be seen that most of the candidates attributed the fault of the change in the civil fort to Wang Zhen's dictatorship and deceived the emperor.

Those who can push the responsibility to Yang Hong account for a small part.

Combined, the two are the absolute mainstream.

Those who dare to put the responsibility on the emperor himself are rare.

As for the one who can give Zhu Qiyu the answer he wants, there is only one person.
