Chapter 2051

It's just that the Ministry of Rites has determined the ranking. It's just for the emperor to have a final look. If there's no problem, it's so decided.

In the past, the Emperor didn't have any opinions, but this time the prince of Jinshi examination was half the examiner. His Qianjin palace talked to him for a while and said that some examiners of the Ministry of rites were ordered directly according to the general list, so the emperor was a little unhappy.

So when Kong Jijiu sent the paper and the list, the emperor looked carefully. After going through the list first, he found that Bai Shan, his son-in-law Bai Cheng and Wei Yu were there. Then he went to see the paper.

The emperor looked at the thirty-six papers carefully and looked at them from beginning to end according to the ranking. Among them, there were four to be selected. Because of Kong's sacrifice and the inspection of several doctors, the four papers attached were some unknown candidates who wrote well.

In order to read the paper, the emperor put aside other political affairs. All the officials who came to report were called in by him to sit with Kong sacrificial wine platoon. After reading the paper, he passed it down for them to read again.

After reading the thirty-six papers, they were all dazzled, so the emperor ordered rice and talked about the list with his love Qing while eating.

The Emperor didn't read the examination papers of these candidates, but he saw them early in the morning.

Although he wanted to hand over the reform of the imperial examination system to the crown prince so that he could become powerful, he didn't want to muddle along now.

So during the meal, he asked Wei Zhi and others for their opinions on several papers.

It's not easy for Li Shangshu to express his opinions on this kind of thing. It's mainly because he is a minister of the Ministry of war. It's hard to say about Confucian classics. We can say some current affairs policies, but

He glanced at Liu Shangshu. It was almost the end of the year. After the new year, he had to calculate the appropriation of the Ministry of war. He decided not to make trouble for Liu Shangshu this year. He just hoped that he would not make trouble for him.

Therefore, Li Shangshu bowed his head to eat and did not express his opinions.

But Wei knew he couldn't. Even this year, his son also took the Jinshi examination, but he wasn't a person who chose to avoid relatives, so when he saw that others didn't speak, he simply commented. He didn't say who was bad for the 32 places he had set, but that the two articles put in for selection were particularly good.

Thirty six articles, from poetry and Fu to Confucian classics and current affairs policy, are stuck together. Poetry and Fu can be seen at a glance, and Confucian classics is almost a fixed answer. What he said is particularly good. Naturally, it is current affairs policy.

Wei Zhi thinks it's a pity that someone with such talent and knowledge fails to make the list.

The emperor also thought so. When he was about to speak, he heard a man: "if you fall on the Jinshi list, you can go to the Ming Sutra."

The emperor choked at one breath and turned to see the speaker.

Wei Zhi didn't choke, but sprayed it back directly. "Can this Jinshi list be the same as the Ming Sutra list? Why doesn't adult Han want his children to go to kaoming Sutra? "

Han Shangshu choked and said, "this is not what I said, but what the doctor of the Imperial College said."

Kong Jijiu was sitting across the bank watching the fire. The fire suddenly burned on himself. He simply asked Han Shangshu, "which doctor said?"

Han Shangshu stopped talking. Instead, he could quietly offer a toast to Kong in private. It seemed that he was a villain in front of everyone.

The emperor had swallowed the choking tone and waved, "OK, let's pass this question first. Since the examination paper is out, we should focus on the examination paper."

He directly picked out two examination papers and said, "let's leave these two."

After taking a look, we found that one was Chengwen Hai of tangzhou and the other was Nie Xiu of Luzhou. They were all students of the Imperial College. All the people present except the emperor had seen their travel papers, and they still felt good at that time.

Liu Shangshu simply turned his head and asked Kong Jijiu, "what are their achievements in the Imperial College?"

"Since you can be in the top 20 on the general list, you have prestige. Your grades should not be bad."

Wei Zhi asked, "did they do their homework in school or did they do it by themselves?"

Kong Jijiu paused and said, "there are all of them, but there is more to do."

Wei Zhi snorted: "approaching the exam, the current affairs policy topics issued by the Imperial College are very comprehensive. I remember Bai Shan's action volume booklet is selected from his own schoolwork and put it into a volume. They are intentional. They also think about other topics, and they are so close to the government. They really have opinions, or they can't know anything else."

Although Kong Jijiu also felt that their two papers were not well done, he did not allow others to maliciously speculate about their students without evidence, so he countered: "Lord Wei thinks too bad about people's hearts. If you don't have evidence, please be careful. If you want to have evidence, you can bring the evidence to our Imperial College."

Seeing that the two Aiqing wanted to quarrel, they were still the two Aiqing with the best eloquence. The emperor quickly became a peacemaker. "Wei Qing is also worried about Juxian, and Mr. Kong forgives him."

He also knew to Wei: "Wei Qing speaks carefully. It's hard to talk about words without evidence."

When Wei Zhishi apologized, Kong offered a toast and snorted. This matter was exposed for the time being.

The emperor broke the topic back, "change these two papers and discuss the ranking again."

When Kong Jijiu saw that the two people selected by the emperor were all students of his imperial college, he simply picked out another one from the remaining two candidate papers and said, "Your Majesty, I think this paper is also very good, which is not as good as these two."

The emperor took a look and saw that he was no better than Bozhong. Although he did a good job, he was still a little worse than these two.

At first glance, the name is also unknown, and the native place is a student from Yangzhou government school.

We can't let him replace one of the two, and Kong Jijiu said that he was not equal to each other, so how to choose?

The emperor and Kong Jijiu looked at each other and understood what he meant. The old thing asked him to pick another person from the established quota, and he could no longer be a member of the Imperial College.

Emperor:

Wei Zhi took a look at the paper. When his spirit was refreshed, he proposed: "Your Majesty, do you want to take another look at Bai Cheng's paper?"

Emperor:

Bai Cheng has been appointed thirty-two. His future father-in-law doesn't want to move forward. Do you still want to fall back?

Seeing that the Emperor didn't speak, Wei Zhi said more carefully: "Your Majesty, Bai Cheng is still young and not as good as the weak crown. It's still too early to become an official at this time. He won the Jinshi examination. Is he going to be released?"

That's far from the emperor's eyes. If this man stirs the wind and rain outside, it's hard to manage.

The emperor thought deeply. He didn't worry that Bai Cheng had other thoughts after he released it. He was a little hard to refuse Shangkong's wine offering and Wei Zhi's burning eyes.

Cheng Wenhai and Nie xiuneng are in the top 20 on the general list. It can be seen that the strength of the external envoy. It's really bad to leave them alone, but if you add his son-in-law

For the sake of the stability and unity of the court, the emperor closed his eyes and put Bai Cheng's paper aside.
