In the evening, the cold spring shrouded the nine-fold palace.

Chongzheng Palace, the triennial imperial examination is about to come to an end.

The civil and military officials held the Chao Wat on both sides of His Majesty, and turned their heads to observe the three hundred nervous new science and technology scholars behind them.

"Who will win the tripod armor?"

"Which family is on the top of the gold list, Cui's? Or Hedong Pei's? ”

"Once you reach the top of the champion body, you will look at the world's scholars, and you will look at the Qiliner of the Great Qianwen Dao!"

The ministers exchanged heads and whispered.

Every time there is a imperial examination, the champion is always the most dazzling existence.

"The saint has arrived—"

With the crisp and melodious voice of the palace maid coming from the side hall, the hall was silent.

Oh, the beautiful beauty queen slowly walked onto the throne, wearing a phoenix skirt that dragged the ground, and the whole person looked noble and elegant.

Eight purple-robed scholars followed, holding the hall examination papers in their hands.

Ji Fuyao looked down at the court hall and said unhurriedly:

"After my palm scroll, there is a strategy with strong handwriting, unique insights, and fine exposition, which can be called a classic, and I hereby handpick the champion body."

The scholars bowed one after another.

There is no dispute about the ownership of the champion, not only His Majesty, but also the eight of them are impressed by this policy.

"Unpacking." The empress said lightly.

All the jinshi held their breath and stared at the seal scroll in the hands of the palace maid.

According to the usual practice, in order to maintain impartiality, the imperial examinations of the great cadres were recorded in a pseudonym.

After the palace maid opened the seal, she looked at her name, her expression slowly froze, and she rarely lost her temper in the solemn court!

The empress's eyes were slightly surprised, and she asked curiously:

"Who?"

"Back to Your Majesty......" The palace maid barely suppressed her shock.

Unprecedented!

Unprecedented!

"Wu County, Gujia Village, Gu Ping'an." The palace maid was frustrated.

Suddenly, the palace was silent.

The ministers exchanged glances with each other, and they could all detect the horror in each other's eyes.

Of the three hundred jinshi, two hundred and eighteen are from the family, eighty-one are from the poor family, and the last one is from the common people.

And he is called Gu Ping'an.

The ancestors of the poor family have been wide, but they have declined, and the common people are the ordinary people for generations.

Today, a grass folk create a miracle with their own hands!

The jinshi were like lightning strikes, and their faces were pale.

In particular, the hands of many gate lords and scholars hidden in the sleeves of their robes were trembling violently.

They have been completely reduced to the disgrace of the family!

Since the establishment of the dynasty, all the thirty-five champions have been born in the family of the gatekeeper!

And in this imperial examination, the scholars cultivated by the gate valve were trampled under the feet of the common people, and they only deserved to look up at his back.

Not to mention the loss of face, what is even more terrifying is what kind of bad impact will it bring?

More than 100 years ago, in order to break the monopoly of the gate valve in the selection of materials, Emperor Taizong of the Great Qian, he tried his best to establish the imperial examination system against public opinion, and batches of poor students poured into the temple.

But so what?

Champion Lang will always come from a high-ranking family!

It is to tell the world plainly-

The inheritance of the gate valve is always higher than that of the common people, which is an insurmountable ladder!

But now?

……

The atmosphere in the court hall was extremely depressed, so quiet that only the sound of the copper leaky clock could be heard.

In the crowd, Gu Ping'an's eyes were in a trance, and across the overlapping palaces, he seemed to see the five-year-old boy in Gujia Village, walking and walking from the small ravine, wading all the way through the torrent and climbing out of the deep pit, and finally staggered towards the capital of the dynasty in fifteen years.

This hard work has come to an end.

"Xuan, the new champion Gu Ping'an." A languid voice came from the throne.

Gu Ping'an walked out of the ranks, met the sharp eyes, and slowly walked towards His Majesty.

"The student has seen Your Majesty." He bowed respectfully, and the Jinshi were all protégés of the Son of Heaven.

The empress didn't say a word, and looked at this champion condescendingly.

After a long time, she was satisfied:

"The wind and bones are in the body, the beauty is in the shape, and the turbulent waves inside can also be self-controlled."

"Since I ascended the throne, you are the first champion, you must not live up to my expectations."

She gave it a very high rating.

Gu Ping'an's emotions surged, and he said sonorously:

"The student is willing to serve His Majesty with loyalty."

The Empress tapped her chin:

"Good!"

Many gate officials, including the purple-robed minister, looked at the young and upright figure, and they all felt a chill that penetrated deep into the bone marrow.

The common people may not know who the six Shangshu are, but Gu Ping'an's name is about to spread throughout the sixteen states of Daqian!

At the age of twenty, he became the champion as a common man.

The aura of pride of the Gate Valve Clan will be torn apart!

From then on, the talented scholars no longer chose to be attached to the high gate, but followed the footprints of the champion and stepped into the court step by step.

It's terrible, dripping through stones!

The first drop of water must be blocked, otherwise there will be endless trouble!

The expressions of the princes of the court were unpredictable, but in the end, they felt powerless.

Appointed by His Majesty, the eight scholars of the Hanlin Academy were unanimously recognized, and they absolutely deserved their name.

How to refute?

Do you want Your Majesty to admit that you have lost your eyes?

The emperor's mouth is Tianxian, even if it is wrong, it is right.

Afterwards, it was even more useless to target Gu Ping'an.

Killing his body won't change the title of Champion Lang.

Suddenly.

A hoarse voice rang out in the courtroom.

"Your Majesty, Weichen has something important to do, please move."

An old man in a python robe walked out quickly, it was Cui Huaizhen, the deputy assistant of the cabinet.

The empress stared at him for a long time, and took the lead in pacing to the side hall.

Cui Huaizhen glanced back at a certain imperial history, and the latter realized that he would leave the court hall directly.

"Congratulations to Gu Xiaoyou." Cui Huaizhen trembled past Gu Ping'an's side, revealing a kind smile.

Gu Ping'an stared at the shiny floor and didn't answer, he had a bad premonition.

…

"The old minister heard that the answer sheet of the champion will be tired, please check it out."

As soon as he entered the side hall, Cui Huaizhen spoke amazingly.

"Ridiculous!" The empress was unmoved, and didn't even look back.

What was the official of the Gate Valve Clan thinking at this time, would she not know?

Transcription, fair and just!

Since ascending the throne, the first champion was actually a common person, which not only subverted the history of scientific research, but also meant that the heroine Qiankun ushered in a new atmosphere, which is definitely a good sign.

Cui Huaizhen's eyes were cloudy, her eyes were squeezed into layers of wrinkles, she was silent for a long time, and said respectfully:

"Your Majesty, the old minister is very old, and he asks to return to his hometown."

After saying that, he fell to his knees.

The empress's expression changed suddenly, staring at this stubborn old thing, her eyes flashing with surprise.

A godsend!

Since ascending the throne two years ago, she has always wanted to eliminate the team left by her father and install her own henchmen.

The emperor rules the Quartet, but in the face of these extremely human ministers, the old fox is also helpless, and he moves his whole body, but if the means are excessive, the court will be full of devastation.

Unexpectedly, Cui Laoshi took the initiative to step down!

"Elder Cui Ge, I don't mean to drive you away." Ji Fuyao quipped.

Cui Huaizhen's face was haggard, and she didn't want to go around in circles anymore, so she simply said bluntly:

"Pei Duzhong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is derelict in his duties, and he should also abdicate and make way for Xian."

In this transaction, the gate valve is willing to spend money!

There are some bad precedents, which must not be opened, and the germination must be stifled!

The corners of the empress's mouth rose, and her delicate and perfect jade cheeks were full of smiles, but when she suddenly thought of the calm and handsome common people, the smile faded.

Don't blame me, your value is far inferior to that of a pavilion elder and a scholar, the emperor should weigh the pros and cons, and he should be cold-blooded and ruthless!

She barely thought about it, and asked in a deep voice:

"You mean Gu Ping'an is involved in fraud? Is there any evidence? ”

Cui Huaizhen didn't pretend to be anything, and said in a low voice:

"The minister has already made arrangements, Gu Ping'an colluded with the examiner to leak the questions, and he couldn't pass the exam with his true talent."

The results of the temple examination cannot be changed, but you can make a fuss about the entrance examination.

If it weren't for cheating, you wouldn't even be a jinshi, let alone stepping into the palace to take the palace exam, and the results would all be abolished!

"The gold mine in Langya Mountain, the Ji royal family should participate in the mining."

"Your Majesty, the old minister hopes to execute the fraudsters as an example."

Cui Huaizhen is poor dagger.

Either don't do it or do it!

Pay a huge price to completely destroy Gu Ping'an.

In order to warn those who vainly try to override the gate lord clan, the iron law of the rules since ancient times cannot be touched, and whoever touches it will die!

The empress did not veto, she walked to the window and looked at the misty rain and fog outside the window.

The conditions are too lucrative to refuse.

I have to borrow your head for a use, don't resent me, I'm also for the sake of the Great Cadre Society.
