After the preliminary examination, they passed 233 examination papers together. "After two days and two nights of hard work, careful selection, he was finally included in the list of tributes, a total of two hundred and thirty-three.

"Rest for two hours, and then conduct a second trial. "As food and hot water were brought in, the examiners, who were confined inside and were not allowed to go out for the final result, entered the temporary sleeper and snorted and went to sleep.

Zhao Gonggong asked people to move a chair, and sat at the door with his eyes closed.

In two hours, the examiners cleaned their faces and hands with clean water, and once again devoted themselves to the second trial.

This time, it was much easier than the first trial.

But the pressure is not small.

After all, out of thousands of examination papers, more than 200 are selected, which is related to the fate of many people, and it is also difficult to choose the ranking among the 233 examination papers.

There were even examiners who had different opinions, even if there were eunuchs present, and in the end they were angry, and they almost rolled up their sleeves.

"Father-in-law, the second trial has been completed, and there are thirty-three exam papers. At the beginning, Zhao Gonggong was still a little interested in watching Wenchen arguing and quarreling, and he was sleepy after watching it for a long time, until he was drowsy, and he was suddenly whispered in his ear, and then he woke up.

"Is the trial finished?" Zhao Gonggong glanced at it, and sure enough, although the faces of several examiners were not good, they were indeed no longer noisy.

These civil officials, what a ...... Croaking.

"The one you commanded to keep an eye on is also in the thirty-three. The little eunuch whispered.

"Okay!" This time you can go on a business trip, Zhao Gonggong got up directly and laughed sharply: "Now that we have come out, then our family will enter the palace with the three adults." ”

"Let's go, three adults. ”

The three chief and deputy examiners who were about to go to see the emperor with the papers, although they didn't like eunuchs, they dared not speak out, nodded and walked out step by step.

Zhao Gonggong directly followed with someone.

It's as if he came here to supervise the audit, and he can go to the business if he has the results.

The examiners of the remaining eighteen rooms looked at each other, and did not say anything about what they thought in their hearts, and tried their best to remain calm on their faces.

Zhao Gonggong and the three chief and deputy examiners, the Gongyuan is not far from the palace, and there are guards to accompany them along the way, quiet, giving people the feeling that they are there in a blink of an eye.

"Father-in-law Zhao, the emperor is taking a break, and wait for me to go and say a word?" A eunuch saw Father-in-law Zhao coming back, and hurriedly whispered.

Gonggong Zhao nodded: "You go, our family is here to accompany the three adults." ”

The eunuch immediately left.

Because today is not the day of the last dynasty, it is not surprising that the emperor has not yet worked when he comes.

If it weren't for the fact that before he left, the emperor confessed and reported the results immediately, with the loyalty of Gonggong Zhao, I am afraid that he would not mind waiting outside for a few hours, just to let the emperor sleep well.

In general, Da Zheng treated his courtiers quite preferentially, and in the side hall, the three adults drank hot tea from the little eunuch and talked casually with Zhao Gonggong, instead of kneeling.

"The emperor has arrived-" After the second round of drinking, with the voice of a eunuch, the four people present got up busily.

"Your Majesty. ”

"Slaves and maidservants greet Your Majesty. ”

"Let's all be flat. The emperor waved his hand and asked them to get up, he sat on the chair, and Duke Zhao went straight to the emperor's side, bent down slightly, and stood and served, which was the duty of a house slave.

Zhong Fan took a step forward and told the emperor about the situation of this examination: "A total of 233 examination papers will be selected by the ministers for the preliminary examination, and the emperor will decide. ”

This is the rule of the Great Zheng calendar, after ordering Huiyuan, 233 tributes, including Huiyuan, will participate in the palace examination after that, and then divide the first, second, and third grades.

"Present it. The Emperor spoke.

There was no need for a eunuch to come, Zhang Xiu personally held the scroll and sent it to the emperor, a total of thirty-three copies.

The emperor looked at the first one, and the first two didn't make him show a special expression, but when he saw the third volume, Zhao Gonggong suddenly coughed.

The emperor's hand paused, unfolded the third volume, looked at the words, and nodded slightly, for the emperor, the 11-level pavilion style is not very bad, and it is still passing.

"It seems that it is still hard work. "Wild calligraphy has this good.

When I saw the problem, I was stunned.

"Children and grandchildren are infinitely scarce", and then look at it, to the effect that although the day is difficult, but the children and grandchildren are infinitely scarce, as long as the son inherits the father's will and works hard, he will be able to move forward.

This is actually Su Ziji's flickering, the terrible thing about the law of rise and fall is not that there are Ming monarchs and famous ministers who can resist it, but to a certain extent, even if every generation is a Ming monarch and famous minister. The country is also going to decline and die.

Take the human body as an example, if there is a person who exercises according to scientific maintenance everywhere, will he not be old?

Definitely not, and the court is no different.

But for the vast majority of people, this reason is sufficient, indeed, as long as the son inherits the father's will and works hard, he will be able to move forward endlessly - the righteousness is very sufficient.

This is also the reason why the examiner gives a high score.

"Hateful!" the emperor finished reading, and suddenly felt irritable, and took two more copies to continue reading, after reading these two copies, the more unhappy he was, he waved his hand directly and did not look, nor spoke, but just got up and paced and groaned.

Seeing that the three examiners were at a loss, the emperor was even more depressed in his heart, these short-sighted courtiers, not only took out this paper, but also put it in the thirty-three examination papers of the selection of Huiyuan, could it be that they also agreed with this point of view, and also felt that I was old?

I can only wait for future generations to complete what I can't do, and I can just step aside?

"How much money did your examiner charge, and he actually chose to take out such an exam paper!" The emperor endured it, but his heart was still angry, and he said coldly.

Before the two deputy examiners could react, the chief examiner Zhong Fanzhi had already kowtowed again and again, and said: "The ministers have been favored by the emperor for a long time, and they are even more favored, presiding over this examination, how dare they bend the law for the sake of copper smell?"

He bowed again and again.

As soon as the emperor spoke, he knew that he was out of shape, in fact, the five articles he read, some said that as long as the pro-gentleman was far from the villain, he could be governed, and some said that if he wanted to rectify the rule of officials, he could delay the mandate of heaven, all of them made sense, and they all didn't make sense, Su Ziji was still the best one.

Spring came, although the temple steps were cleaned, there was still faint moss, but the withered grass and new seedlings in the distance grew side by side, trembling in the wind, the more uncomfortable my heart was, and it took a long time to breathe a heavy breath, turned around, returned to my seat, and then took out the third volume to read carefully.

"The truth of the text is old, and the words are precise, and even plagiarism can't be plagiarized. ”

The emperor's own literary literacy is not to say, but every day is all the writing of Jinshi, it can be said that even if the eye is high and the master is low, the aesthetics are also cultivated, this kind of writing, the world's first-rate, cannot be obtained by fraud.

Tianbu's title,There is no certain answer.,This answer is also very good.,Why did you read it yourself.,Angry?

"Am I jealous?" the Emperor asked himself.

"Bookmark for easy reading"
