Chapter 429

On the next day, Qin Dewei called Chen Feng and Xu Gu over, and said sadly: "The list of five people we have has been leaked!"

Chen Feng and Xu Gu looked at each other, both embarrassed.Qin Dewei basically stayed at home for more than two months, but the two of them often went out to make friends.

Who doesn't have a close friend?So a situation similar to "I have a secret to tell you, you are not allowed to tell others" happened.

But the two are not big bosses with sensitive identities, the scope of communication is not that wide, and the problem is not that serious, right?Which exam didn't gossip before?

Moreover, Qin Dewei did not emphasize secrecy at the beginning, and they were very sensible and did not explain the source.

He also heard Qin Dewei say: "The key is, I heard that this list was known by the Jinyiwei official school, and it will be played for the emperor!"

Fog Grass!Chen Feng and Xu Gu were taken aback. If the name list was revealed to the emperor, then the problem would be more complicated. It is very likely that all five of them would be discarded.

But Qin Dewei turned his worries into joy and said: "But after thinking about it, this is actually a good thing!"

Chen Feng Xu Gu: "."

As a Nanjing scholar, I have long been used to the feeling of not being able to keep up with Qin Dewei's thinking, so I don't need to think about anything, and wait for Qin Dewei to explain himself.

Sure enough, I heard Qin Dewei explain: "At the beginning, we got the most likely list of eight people, and later narrowed it down to five people who are more likely.

If these five people were eliminated, wouldn't there be an examiner among the remaining three? "

Chen Feng and Xu Gu were not stupid, and when they heard this, they suddenly realized.

Five people became three people, and the scope was further reduced, which seemed to be a good thing!
Looking back, did you, Qin Banqiao, do it on purpose?
No wonder you, Qin Dewei, want to reduce it to five people after you have a list of eight people, and you don't want to keep it secret. It turns out that it is a further method of elimination!
Qin Dewei took out another stack of notebooks from the inner room, "The remaining three Great Hanlin are Dong Qi, Cai Ang, and Yao Lai.

There are only a few days left for the examination, here are the articles and handouts of the three Hanlin scholars, let's take the time to figure out and analyze them together! "

Since the 11th year of Jiajing, Xu Miaoxuan has been helping Qin Dewei to copy the internal materials of Hanyuan by taking advantage of the relationship with his neighbor Zhang Xueshi.

Chen Feng and Xu Gu were also overjoyed. Today, they finally see the hope of the Chinese style, and they are indeed Qin Dewei who has no plans!

The famous Jinling hermit Xu Long told his son Xu Gu privately that in fact Qin Dewei is best at leading people to lie down and win, as long as he is a good tool and does not make trouble.

The wisdom of the old man is indeed correct, just go to the capital and follow Qin Dewei.A hero with three gangs, even if Qin Dewei is a genius, he will still need the help of the township party in the future.

But Xu Miaojing received a mission from Qin Dewei and went to the East Factory the next day.

The factory owner, Qin eunuch, read the draft memorial in his hand, groaning for a while, he knew at a glance that this handwriting did not look like Xu Miaojing's at all.

In Xu Miaojing's social circle, there is only one person who can do such a thing!
I thought you, kid, have been a tortoise for two months, and you really plan to take the exam honestly.

As a result, it was only a few days before the exam, and suddenly such a moth was thrown out.

Although eunuch Qin didn't understand the specific idea because of lack of information, he could vaguely see that someone must be writing the article in order to delineate the candidate for the chief examiner.

Dongchang absolutely cannot hide such sensitive information.So what eunuch Qin hesitated was, should he help out while reporting the report?
He also knows that this year may not be a good time for someone, the main reason is that the final ranking of the palace examination is manipulated by the Minister of the Cabinet.

At present, Zhang Fujing is still the chief assistant, Huo Tao and Wang Hung are still in court, even if a certain person passes the general examination, he will not get a good rank in the palace examination.

Why bother, idiot, it would be too tasteless if he was really beaten as a Jinshi at the end of the top three.

Thinking of the end, the eunuch Qin sighed "children and grandchildren have their own blessings", and made up their minds.

Then he said to Xu Miaojing: "You don't need to go through the Secretary of General Administration for this memorial. I will submit it to the emperor at my own choice. Your credit is also indispensable to you."

A few days later, the date has come to February 14nd of the [-]th year of Jiajing.

Spring has officially arrived, and the emperor's sutra banquet has resumed.

The so-called Jingyan, the simple explanation is that Hanyuan Cichen gave lectures to the emperor, which is one of the reasons why Hanlin officials have a high status.

Then the important ministers of the cabinet, the Six Ministries, and Ke Dao will also attend and listen together.But compared to the Hanlin officials, the cabinet ministers can only be regarded as supporting roles in the Jingyan.

Emperor Jiajing in his youth was still very diligent and studious, and he had a strong interest in studying classics and history.

Otherwise, what would he use to quarrel with the minister on the issue of the ceremony?

Therefore, 20 years before Jiajing, the emperor's Jingyan system was carried out relatively normally, and it was not abandoned, and Hanlin was punished by Emperor Jiajing because of the poor quality of lectures.

The sutra feast on February 14nd of Jiajing [-] years is especially important, because the ninth day of February is the day when the general examination will start, and the chief examiner has not yet been determined.

Perhaps at this sutra banquet, the emperor chose whoever was pleasing to his eyes as the chief examiner?
Who in Hanlin doesn't want to be the chief examiner of the examination?Accepting two or three hundred Jinshi students at once, how many things in the officialdom can be more beautiful than this?
Therefore, at this sutra feast, the courtiers of Hanyuan in the Wenhua Palace put in extra effort.

Whether they were in charge of lecturing, answering questions, or flipping through books, they all tried their best.

Of course, all of this had nothing to do with Zhang Chao and Xueshi Zhang, he was just standing in the crowd to make soy sauce.It's not his turn to show his face in front of the emperor.

The other ministers present at the Wenhua Palace watched with cold eyes and made silent assessments in their hearts.

However, Emperor Jiajing was always unpredictable. No one could guess which Hanlin he would choose as the examiner.

An hour later, during the intermission, the emperor temporarily stepped back to rest, and the ministers chatted in twos and threes.

Huo Tao, the left deputy capital censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, went to Xia Yan, the heavenly official of the Ministry of Officials, and said tentatively, "I heard that the kid from Jinling, surnamed Qin, passed the provincial examination by chance. ?”

Xia Yan chuckled a few times and said, "You are a minister, why are you so concerned about a child?"

The subtext implies that Huo Tao has a small heart and is still holding grudges.

Huo Tao also said half sarcasticly, half threateningly: "It's not like you Xia Guizhou, there are too many great talents from Jiangxi, so you can't pay attention to others, right?"

The subtext is that if you, Xia Yan, want to take care of the Jiangxi fellows smoothly, then you can forget about other nosy matters.

Xia Yan said disapprovingly: "It's not up to you, Huo Tao, to decide whether to take the test."

Huo Tao snorted coldly: "Then let's take a look."

In fact, Huo Tao had recommended Zuo Chunfang, Zuo Yude, and Jiang Rubi to the emperor in private, but Huo Tao didn't know what the emperor thought, and he was also unsure.

After the intermission, Emperor Jiajing reappeared, sitting on the throne, while the lecturer Jiang Rubi stood behind the desk opposite.

But before the lecture began, Shi Shiran, the governor of Dongchang Qin and the eunuch Shi Shiran, entered the hall with the seal of the imperial horse inspector.

It can be said that Qin eunuch appeared very abruptly.Usually at the sutra banquet, only the eunuchs and eunuchs attended, and the eunuch Qin had not yet joined the eunuch.

But as a factory official, there must be something urgent to appear suddenly, so it is not abrupt.

The Qin eunuch copied a memorial from his sleeve and presented it to Emperor Jiajing.Needless to say, this must be something that the emperor should read immediately.

After Emperor Jiajing finished reading it, he handed it to the eunuch accompanying him: "Read it to the gentlemen!"

This melody was the melody presented by Xu Miaojing, the commander of Jin Yiwei, and the ministers of the cabinet and the Hanlin officials in the hall were all stunned after listening to it.

Who is so boring to make such a list of five people and spread it around?What exactly does this mean?
Only a certain scholar surnamed Zhang who was standing in the crowd making soy sauce was stunned. What the hell are these disciples who deserve to kill thousands of knives doing?

Someone stood up and remonstrated: "These rumors are extremely vicious and destroy the court ceremony. Your Majesty, please send officials to investigate!"

Someone else retorted: "The rumors are circulating among the candidates, and now there are only a few days before the exam, and there are thousands of candidates who want to pursue it, so can the exam still be held normally?"

Immediately afterwards, someone stood up and played to the Emperor Jiajing: "In any case, the grand examination ceremony is the most important thing, first pass the examination safely, and then do other investigations!
Besides, things like rumors, I'm afraid the more you investigate, the better policy is to deal with them coldly if it doesn't affect the overall situation. "

Emperor Jiajing paid great attention to the unpredictable power and power. How could the emperor's mind be guessed by others?
So no matter what, these five people can't be used, otherwise, wouldn't they be guessed right?

But now that there are not many senior Hanlin, who should be replaced?Emperor Jiajing's long eyes swept back and forth in the Hanlin class, thinking about the final choice.

At this time, the Qin eunuch next to him suddenly stepped in and said: "I still suspect that there may be other lists."

Another list?Emperor Jiajing remained calm, but his rebellious heart secretly broke out, and his eyes continued to wander.

Now the number of officials in the Imperial Academy is relatively small, and there are really not many candidates who are qualified to take the exam. If you exclude those who may be guessed, there are not many candidates.

Finally, Emperor Jiajing saw a certain scholar surnamed Zhang, who was indeed a senior Hanlin.

However, this person participated in the Zuoshunmen incident and made a major political mistake. He has been ignored for more than ten years and has been silent in the court.

In the eyes of others, if this person can be sent to host the provincial examination, he has already hit the big luck in the shortage of manpower during the examination season. How can he continue to host the examination?
Emperor Jiajing suddenly said, "Zhang Chao!"

At this moment, Zhang Xueshi is cursing in his heart, and by the way, he has made up his mind that this Hanlin can't do it anymore, and he will resign and return to his hometown tomorrow!

Hearing the voice suddenly, he just stepped out subconsciously and knelt down in front of the throne.

Then Xueshi Zhang came to his senses, his face paled in an instant, and he was trembling in panic, something big was going to happen to this horse-rider!
I didn't expect the emperor to be so wise and powerful, and he could tell at a glance that it was the list drawn up by himself!
The emperor is mean and ungrateful, he is strict with others, and now he will lose his life at the end of the day!
Will he go to Yunnan and find Yang Shen of the same year to retire with him?Or will you go to Guangdong and Guangxi to eat lychees?
If I had known this before, after the end of the Nanzhili Township Examination, I should have retired!

When Emperor Jiajing saw Zhang Xueshi's messy appearance, he thought it was because he was trembling with excitement and lost his composure.

This kind of strong feedback of life and death really gave Emperor Jiajing a sense of accomplishment, so he decisively issued an edict: "Use me as the examiner, and immediately lock you into the Tribute Academy!"

There was an uproar in the Wenhua Palace, unexpectedly the chief examiner landed on the most unlikely old Zhang Chao!
Emperor Jiajing snorted coldly, who can guess right this time?
Everyone looked at Zhang Chao in unison. Is this old Pujie a Bachelor of Attendant or a Bachelor of Attendant?

He usually seems to be indifferent to the world, but unexpectedly he is a ruthless character. After ten years of silent tolerance, has he finally started to show his strength?
The two accompanying guards in Jinyi stepped forward, set up Xueshi Zhang, and dragged him outside.

They are responsible for sending the newly released chief examiners to the Tribute Court for isolation immediately, and blocking all contact between the chief examiners and outsiders.

Emperor Jiajing issued another oral order: "As for the rumors, we will investigate after the examination is over!"

As the saying goes, the exam is the biggest, and stability is the most important thing.It is estimated that there is nothing to be found out about things like rumors, so let's go through the motions.

The eunuch Qin quietly withdrew from the Wenhua Palace, hiding his achievements and fame.

Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. If the test is like this, let the palace test be resigned to fate. If it really becomes the end of the top three, that is also fate.

For some reason, Zhang Xueshi's legs and feet have been weak, and the Jinyiwei official school can only continue to carry Zhang Xueshi outside the palace.

The guard at the palace gate saw it, and thought he was going to drag it out to beat the court staff.

After leaving the left gate of Chang'an in the imperial city, and then all the way to Dongcheng, after sending Xueshi Zhang to the Gongyuan, the news spread immediately.

No one is stupid. When the exam was approaching for a few days, a bachelor was suddenly sent to the Gongyuan and locked up. What could he be if he wasn't the chief examiner?
Following Qin Dewei's order, Ma Er had been wandering around the Gong Yuan to watch the limelight, and immediately turned around and ran home.

Qin Dewei is studying the notebooks of Dong Qi, Cai Ang and Yao Lai together with Chen Feng and Xu Gu.

They didn't dare to slack off, it had been going on for several days, they ascended to heaven and fell to the ground, in one fell swoop!
Ma Er ran into the courtyard and shouted at the top of his voice, "Master! Your county examination seat teacher Zhang Xueshi has been locked into the Gongyuan!"

The three people in the room were all shocked, and they were not surprised to hear the news.

Qin Dewei was a little confused, what's going on?Teacher Zhang hung up?How did you become the chief examiner?

Chen Feng and Xu Gu looked at Qin Dewei, and then at the notebooks of the three Hanlin in their hands.They have worked so hard to sharpen their guns for the past few days, is it all in vain?
Moreover, Qin Dewei's myth that he has no plans is shattered like this!
"Don't doubt, everything is within my expectations!" Qin Dewei shouted loudly, absolutely not allowing his authority to be questioned!

He belatedly and racked his brains to write: "After seeing the list of five people, the emperor thinks that the emperor is only wise and powerful. How could he not have imagined that due to the small number of imperial officials, the most popular candidates may be guessed?
So it is reasonable for the emperor to put aside all the popular candidates and appoint the most unlikely person, and it is also not what I expected! "

Chen Feng remembered something in a daze, and said in awe, "Did you say that you should kill all eight people on the big list? Is that what you mean?"

Qin Dewei quickly denied: "I'm not, I haven't, don't talk nonsense!"

Chen Feng nodded: "I understand, I understand! Nothing!"
