As the Qianhu family of the Northern Town Fushi Department, how powerful is it?

You should know that the Jinyiwei is nominally directly under the jurisdiction of the emperor, and officials in the court cannot interfere with it, so the Jinyiwei can handle major cases involving court officials and submit them directly to the emperor.●⌒, so most officials in the court are afraid of the Jinyiwei.

Although Jiang Liwei is only a thousand households now and is still one step away from the Northern Fushishi Department’s Fushishishi, he is a middle- and senior official of the Ming Dynasty’s spy agency.

Sun Xu actually came over and yelled Jiang Liwei with words, which Su Tong never expected.

It is often rude to the juren when facing civil servants, but even if they are juren, they dare not be dissatisfied with the Jinyiwei who has patrols and arrests and the power to be scepter.

Su Tong hurriedly said, "Brother Sun, Jiang Qianhu is busy with official duties, how can he know where Mr. Chen go? Brother Gu Yu, Mr. Chen now... You can also recognize that he is the Shen Jiaqilang of Tingzhou Prefecture. He was sent to a prison by the court. He said it was involved in the case of selling the issue. Please ask Brother Gu Yu to help him and try to inquire."

Jiang Liwei smiled and said, "It's okay."

The sentence "It's okay", it seems that the question is irrelevant. I don't know if he is talking about Chen Xi or if he doesn't mind Sun Xu and him.

Su Tong was not very good at continuing to ask for each other. In his opinion, Jiang Liwei answered the question like this because he did not want to be involved in the case of the Ministry of Rites' examination and sales.

Su Tong knew that his status was humble and could not raise any conditions with court officials like Jiang Liwei. Jiang Liwei was treated with courtesy as a gift to him, so he had to know what Jiang Liwei wanted to help.

"I have someone to meet you, so I won't be with you first." Jiang Liwei bowed and said goodbye.

Su Tong and Lun Wenxu both gave each other a gift, but Sun Xu was angry. After the others left, Sun Xu inadvertently mentioned: "If it weren't for this Jiang Qianhu, Mr. Chen would not have been imprisoned."

One sentence surprised Su Tong. What happened to Sun Xu sighed. How could Chen Xi's imprisonment have nothing to do with Jiang Li?

Sun Xu did not explain that there were not many people outside the tribute school at this time. Most candidates would rather stay in inns or guilds and wait patiently for the news.

The court wanted to release the results, starting from around noon until sunset and dusk in the afternoon, and the 300 candidates admitted to the Ministry of Rites' examination were reported in turn.

Start with the eleventh place in the imperial examination and end with the 300th place, because the candidates live far and near, and the newspaper may not be able to accurately find the residence of the scholar. Even if there are orders in the newspaper transmission, when it is actually transmitted to the scholar, it may not necessarily be the highest ranking.

As for the top ten examinations of the Ministry of Rites, it is a glory.

It has always been said that the top ten articles of the Ministry of Rites must be reviewed by the emperor himself, just as the top ten articles of the palace examination were personally selected by the emperor. But in fact, when it comes to the secrets of the Ministry of Rites' examination, no one dares to guarantee this, especially the emperor is busy with official duties and has no time to review the papers of the Ministry of Rites' examination. After all, there is a palace examination behind it.

"Young Master, I heard that there has been a good news from the inn, so why don't we go back and wait?" Sun Xu brought the servants to report.

The tribute college announced the results and reported the good news. Originally, the two were carried out at the same time. Some candidates did not come because they were uneasy and were afraid that they would not win, so they simply gathered with some fellow villagers for tea and waited for the news together.

This is an advantage. If you win, there will be a large number of people who will be on the list, or who have been on the list together, and have been waiting for the list together, and they can become "country party" in the future.

As for those who fail, you can also have a free celebration banquet and make friends with several new Jinshi, which will be of certain benefit to participating in the imperial examination in the future.

Maybe today's Jinshi will be tomorrow's Hanlin, or even become a co-examination for the next session.

As for those who come to the tribute court to wait for news, they are really "impatient". They want to know earlier whether they have won or not, so that they can save them from going back to wait for news. If they fail, they may be sad and disappointed, they may pack up the bedding in the afternoon and embark on the journey back to their hometown, which will save them from spending money in vain when they stay in the capital.

But this time the tribute court released the results, it was obviously a little late. The scholars who were waiting outside the tribute court thought to themselves: "It is probably because of the sales case that the quotation here has been delayed."

Until noon, there was a person coming out of the tribute courtyard, but Jiang Liwei, who had just entered and met the officials of the Ministry of Rites. Although he was not a student of the Imperial College, he was free to step into the Imperial College because he met an official of the Jinyiwei who was a senior official. Obviously, he asked the news in advance, and after he came out, he ignored Su Tong and others, got into the sedan chair in the distance, and left quickly.

Sun Xu said depressedly: "I know it before we do."

Su Tong didn't understand the meaning at first, but he thought about it and realized it roughly. In fact, the results have already come out, but the Ministry of Rites has not posted the list article in public.

Just now, Jiang Liwei said that he was looking at the list for others. He had the convenience of becoming an official, so he went in and asked clearly, so he left without waiting for the results to be released.

Poor to the disciples outside, they still have to wait for the news inside.

...

...

Finally, it was three o'clock in the afternoon and the results began.

Those who passed the Ministry of Rites' examination were called "tributes". Because most of the apricot flowers in the capital bloomed at the end of February and early March, the Ministry of Rites' examinations were also called "axophone list".

Although the nomination for the Xinglist is temporarily a "tribute scholar", it will soon participate in the palace examination.

After entering the palace examination, whether you are a Jinshi, a Jinshi, or a Jinshi, you will be a standard "Jinshi" and will be selected as an official.

The "Xinglist" ranking will not be issued in a round case, but the candidate's examination status, test number and name are listed on the long case according to the ranking. This is also to prevent the candidate from having a duplicate name. Even if the names are the same, the region will not be the same. Even if the regions are the same, the number of the examination will not be the same.

The Ministry of Rites’ examination must be rigorous.

The first case is also a very important case on the "Xinglist", with a total of 90 people. The second and third cases each have one hundred people, a total of 290 people.

As for the top ten in the Ministry of Rites' examination, they will be placed in the last case, and the Ministry of Rites will report the good news in three batches. Others can only report the good news in one batch, but the top ten needs to be taken in three batches. This is because the top ten in the Ministry of Rites' examination basically represents the three-level palace examination. Such glorious things require the court to promote them to get a good start.

As soon as the first case was posted, the candidates waiting outside the Gongyuan gathered around. Although there were not many people coming, there were still hundreds of people, and the front was surrounded.

The Ministry of Rites did not hide it. Soon the second and third cases were posted. After the candidates went up to see it, most of them returned in disappointment.

The candidates are still self-aware. After the exam, they are actually very clear about how well they did after the exam. The admission rate for the exam was not high. It is enough to just think about the matter of a carp leaping over the dragon gate. Sometimes they really dare not have extravagant thoughts.

Lun Wenxu, Sun Xu and Su Tong all came forward to check. No one found their names in the first three cases.

Su Tong knew very well that he must have failed this time. He mainly focused on finding Chen Xi's name. Unfortunately, it was Chen Xi, and even a candidate from Tingzhou Prefecture could not be found. That means, not only him, but also Chen Xi and Wu Shengyu were not on this long case.

As for Lun Wenxu and Sun Xu, although their faces were a little disappointed, they had greater expectations. With their talent, it is very likely to be a top ten. They have a conceit that ordinary people cannot achieve. Moreover, yesterday Li Dongyang did not take the exam for others, but only the exam for them was because they answered the questions of the "Four Sons' Attainments".

Lun Wenxu and Sun Xu both heard about Cheng Minzheng's feelings when he was reviewing the papers in Nangong that he had expressed his feelings that "there are Tang and Xu among these three sons" and that he wanted to be promoted to the top. It was precisely that the two of them were two of the "three sons". Needless to say, the other one was Chen Xi who went to take the exam together yesterday.

Since among all the students, only three of them can make the "four sons' accomplishments". It should be a good chance to be in the top ten.

But Lun Wenxu and Sun Xu were not sure at this moment. The main reason was that Chen Xi was taken to the Beizhen Fushi Department and had not been released. This shows that the court intends to calm down the situation. Chen Xi answered correctly. He was actually imprisoned, and the two of them were released, and they may be unknown on the list.

After the first three lists were announced, many people rushed to tell each other, including those who were among themselves, and those who were among fellow villagers. If they were among themselves, they would quickly go back to the hotel or rented house to wait for the good news to be reported. As for those who were among fellow villagers, they would also go back to report the good news as soon as possible, waiting for some rewards, and make personal connections.

As for Lun Wenxu, Sun Xu and Su Tong had no intention of leaving. They were still waiting for the last top ten to be released. Although Su Tong did not think that Chen Xi would be on the top ten list, he hoped that Lun Wenxu and Sun Xu would help him write a letter to the court process in order to obtain the court's forgiveness.

After the three of them returned to the crowd and waited for the moment, Sun Xu laughed at himself with a slight self-deprecation: "Brother Bocho, will you lose my name when you say you are the two of you?"

Lun Wenxu smiled and shook his head. In fact, for Lun Wenxu, it has been more than once or twice. As a famous Guangdong scholar who graduated from the Imperial Academy, he even has many fans in the capital to give lectures, but he is just a layer of gauze away from becoming a Jinshi, which can be seen but cannot be touched.

For Lun Wenxu, becoming a Jinshi was already an obsession. He was over thirty years old and no longer like a young man, he was just a passionate person. He had to work hard in his family and career. He could not get the exam until he was old. If he couldn't get the exam for two more classes, he would give up.

Just as the three of them were waiting, another person came to see the results.

Lun Wenxu and Sun Xu were not familiar with this person, but Su Tong recognized him at a glance. Isn’t this Zhu Zhishan, who is a good friend of Tang Bohu and a talented man in Wuzhong?

Zhu Zhishan came to see the results and did not bring the servants, but came alone. He stepped forward with anxiety, but did not start from the first case, but from the last case.

Su Tong suddenly remembered that among the familiar names he saw on the list just now, Zhu Zhishan, the famous talented man from Wuzhong.

Although Zhuzhishan’s ranking is not high, only ranked in more than 200, it can be considered a win.

Sure enough, before I finished watching the third case of Zhu Zhishan, I smiled to the sky. Maybe I felt that the years had passed. A generation of great talented men in Wuzhong were the best in Jiangnan for their poetry and prose, but they were not in the imperial examination. What a bad thing.

Because Zhu Zhishan's reaction was too strong, many candidates were looking at him, but because Zhu Zhishan was low-key after he arrived in the capital, no one knew him.

But there are always familiar ones.

"Isn't this Brother Xizhe?"

Someone whom I met before came forward to say hello.

Zhu Zhishan was excited and said, "I won, I won...Do you know? Haha, I Zhu Yunming finally passed the Jinshi..."

It was a bit like a great joy and sadness. Zhu Zhishan was so excited that his feet were unstable and he actually fell to the ground. When everyone heard this, hehe, a talented man from Wuzhong passed the Jinshi!

I quickly went up to help me, and congratulations continued.
