Chapter 36 Palace Examination(1/2)

"Since he doesn't obey his elders, he deserves to suffer a little."

The Emperor's tone left no room for doubt.

"You can go to the Ministry of Rites later and ask someone to expel him from his position!"

"Yes! I will go there later, and I will let you know that the Emperor's kindness is still there!"

Dai Quan agreed happily, but he said: "It's just... it's a pity for this kid's talent."

The Supreme Emperor was about to go back to rest when he heard this and said disdainfully:

"Suppressing more than a hundred Japanese pirates is considered a talent? There are no tigers in the south of the Yangtze River. A group of such monkeys can be caught on the border!"

Dai Quan shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, this boy not only killed the Japanese pirates, but also won two yuan in a row. He can be regarded as a man with both civil and military skills."

"Oh? Is there anything else?"

The Supreme Emperor was a little surprised when he heard this.

Dai Quan nodded and confirmed: "Before, he was Ying Tianfu Jieyuan, and he won the first place in the examination this time."

If this were to be dismissed directly, I'm afraid it would be too controversial.

He did not dare to reject the Supreme Emperor directly, so he had to go through several detours before speaking out.

The Supreme Emperor pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "In that case, you can go there after the examination papers are marked."

"this……"

Dai Quan is even more difficult.

This is worse than sending him to the Ministry of Etiquette.

Directly facing Emperor Jingshun!

The Supreme Emperor immediately chuckled and said: "What? Are you afraid of offending Tai Chi Palace?"

"Your Majesty is joking. Others don't know, and this old slave doesn't know that these two saints, father and son, are of the same mind and are doing everything for the sake of Wei. How can they not be offended?"

Dai Quan quickly shook his head.

No matter what the father and son do, no one can say anything about it.

"Yeah?"

The Supreme Emperor snorted coldly.

Dai Quan quickly knelt down and said tremblingly: "The palace examination is a ceremony for recruiting talents after all, old slave..."

Not only did he offend Emperor Jingshun, he was also charged with sabotaging the imperial examination.

Wouldn’t all the scholars in the world tear him apart?

Seeing this, the Supreme Emperor couldn't help but laugh and said, "Is it difficult for this old guy to care about his reputation?"

"The old slave's reputation is nothing. The main reason is that I am afraid of ruining His Majesty's reputation!"

"Okay, it's Huiyuan after all, so there's no need to fire him. When the time comes, you can just ask them to move their rankings back."

The Supreme Emperor waved his hand.

"So let's give some explanations to those families."

Dai Quan relaxed slightly.

Even if a fox pretends to be a tiger, there is a limit.

If it were to be demoted, it wouldn't be impossible.

After all, Emperor Jingshun was famous for his filial piety.

…………

Time turned and it was already the first day of April.

The Taiji Palace among the three major palaces contains Taiji Hall, Liangyi Hall, Chengqing Hall and many other palaces.

Among them, Taiji Hall is the largest one, and it is also where Emperor Jingshun usually went to court to administer government affairs.

Today, Tai Chi Hall is also the venue for the palace examination.

Feng Yibo stood out among the tributes.

It's not just about being at the top.

Also because of age.

Zhou Jun was selected as a tribute scholar at the age of thirty-two, and he was already young and promising.

Among the more than 300 Gongshi who were taking the examination at the scene, most of them were between thirty and fifty years old.

For those under thirty, it is estimated that there will be no more than ten people.

Under twenty.

Feng Yibo is the only one.

What's more, he is still good at it.

From word of mouth, these people all know that Huiyuan in this department is an eighteen-year-old boy.

Now I can tell just by looking at his face that he is the most tender.

Fortunately, it is tender yet thick.

And with his back to everyone's gaze, Feng Yibo really didn't feel anything.

Of course, no matter how socializing the tributes were, no one dared to socialize in the palace.

Even Zhou Jun didn't dare to come over.

After Feng Yibo released the results that day, he and Zhou Jun celebrated briefly.

After a few drinks, we exchanged name cards.

Let’s go through the subsequent process together.

The two are from the same hometown and classmates, and now they are of the same age.

If I didn't get closer, I would be sorry for being so similar.

But now, he stood far back.

Feng Yibo stood at the front.

The imperial examination was personally presided over by the emperor, and the ceremony had a strong sense of demonstrating the power of God.

All behaviors must strictly abide by the "Palace Examination Etiquette".

One day in advance, Honglu Temple and Guanglu Temple had already arranged the examination rooms.

Early this morning, officials from the Ministry of Rites came to the outside of Taiji Hall with various tributes.

They are arranged on both sides of Danqi, facing north.

Feng Yibo, who was standing at the front at this time, was actually at the door of Tai Chi Hall.

Even if you look up, you can clearly see Emperor Jingshun in the main hall, wearing ordinary clothes and sitting north and south.

At this time, an official from Honglu Temple petitioned for promotion to the palace, and Emperor Jingshun replied:

"Accurate performance".

Under the leadership of officials from the Ministry of Rites, the tributes entered the palace and paid homage to Emperor Jingshun.

Then they lined up on both sides and stood in front of the prepared table.

Emperor Jingshun wrote the policy title himself and had his attendants place it on the case.

Feng Yibo glanced at Emperor Jingshun secretly, but he couldn't see anything special.

He is about thirty years old and has a dignified appearance.

If you look carefully, there are still some traces of time management.

The dark circles under my eyes are very heavy.

At this time, the deacons began to distribute the test questions, and the tributes began to answer the papers.

Feng Yibo adjusted his sitting posture and opened the test questions.

I saw the title said:

Ask about the emperor's government and the emperor's heart.

It is not as mysterious and mysterious as many of the "real questions" that Feng Yibo has done.

This topic is very clear.

To put it simply, it is how the emperor should govern and the guiding ideology of governing.

Could it be that Emperor Jingshun was shaken by his governing philosophy?

Feng Yibo didn't have time to think too much. He first wrote on a piece of paper: Establish a solid heart and implement practical policies.
To be continued...
