Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 525 Ranking

At this time, in the Gongyuan, the two chief examiners and four fellow examiners were nervously correcting the test papers.

This time, because of the weirdness of the first question, it is easier to correct the paper than ever before. If you can say something from the "0" and solve the problem smoothly, you will have the opportunity to let the marking officer continue to grade; if you can't solve the problem smoothly, Needless to say, directly dismissed.

So although there are eight or nine hundred papers, after one night's work, more than half of them have been corrected.

The chief examiner, Pan Yiting, rubbed his eyebrows wearily.

To be honest, Guangxi Province is a remote place, and it is not a place of prosperous literary style, so it is not valued by the court.Their faction couldn't compete with the First Prince's faction in central Beijing and several important areas, so they sought out several remote provinces, and Guangxi Province was one of them.

There are not many people from Guangxi Province who can talk in the court, but these people are not from the second prince's faction. Even if there are, they either have no sons and nephews in the family to take the imperial examination, or the mud can't support the wall .In the end, after many choices, he chose the Qi family that was related to Zhao Liang, because he heard that the kid from the Qi family seemed to have a good name, and Zhao Liang belonged to the second prince's faction.

On the way to Guangxi Province, he handed over the message to the Qi family, telling the Qi family boy to hand in the paper, even if he couldn't hand in the first paper, he had to hand in the top ten, so that he could know which test paper was the top ten through some channels. For the Qi family boy, it is good to put some effort into the comments.After all, as the chief examiner, even if he could do some tricks during the scientific examination, he couldn't do it too obviously.Those people all looked at Dandan and wanted to grab him by the pigtails.The top few in the township examination have to be ranked among the test papers with more circles and better comments on the test papers.If the kid from the Qi family can't squeeze into these few test papers, he can only dream of getting Jie Yuan.

But he didn't expect that the kid from the Qi family couldn't even do this, he failed to hand in the paper early, and the essay he wrote seemed to have no special features. Pan Yiting didn't know which paper belonged to Qi Siyu even after changing the papers—Qi Siyu loves him The article quotes Qi Yuandao’s point of view, but firstly, this “0” question can’t be connected with qi science, and secondly, many students in Fuxue School follow his example, and most of them mention Qi Yuandao’s in the article theory, so Qi Siyu's articles gradually lost their characteristics.

So Pan Yiting was very unhappy.

Their faction finally snatched him the position of chief examiner, and the Xieyuan he took was from another faction, and he was promoting talents for other factions. What face does he have when he returns to Beijing to return to his job.

Sighing deeply in his heart, he cheered up and continued to review the test papers.

After more than half a day, the test papers were finally reviewed, and several test papers were placed in front of the two chief examiners and four fellow examiners.

Pan Yiting glanced at the crowd, and first asked Wang Shibin, "Which test paper does Mr. Wang think can be used as a talent to solve the problem?"

Pan Yiting didn't know which test paper belonged to Qi Siyu, and he had no goal, but he could infer it from other people's reactions.After all, a person's articles all carry his own characteristics, as long as he intends to, he can still recognize it.For example, Qi Muyuan, who is highly praised by the First Prince's faction, has always emphasized facts in his articles, is good at reasoning, and has a kind of vigor when presenting facts and reasoning.He usually writes articles with this characteristic, and he can amplify this characteristic in the examination room, so that the examiner who intends to pick him can recognize which article is his at a glance.

Because he was appointed as the chief examiner in Beijing, he went directly south on the upper road, the time was too short, and it was not suitable to contact outsiders, so Pan Yiting could only get a few essays by Qi Siyu, and he did not have a safe channel to obtain the essays of other candidates, so naturally he could not Identify which test paper is Qi Muyuan's test paper strongly recommended by the First Prince's faction.

But he has his own way of getting it.As long as Wang Shibin strongly recommends which test paper, he can know which test paper belongs to Qi Muyuan.When the time comes, he will directly suppress them and not let them succeed.The rest, of course, belonged to Qi Siyu or other candidates.

Pan Yiting felt that Qi Siyu's inability to get Jieyuan was secondary, and the most important thing was to prevent candidates from other factions from getting Jieyuan when he was the chief examiner.

Wang Shibin is also in his 60s and has been an official all his life. Pan Yiting didn't mention the test paper he wanted to get, but asked him first what his intention was, and Wang Shibin naturally knew it.

In this regard, he is not without countermeasures.

He pointed to a test paper and said, "I feel that I have the talent to understand Yuan in this life."

Pan Yiting picked up the test paper, looked at it, nodded to Wang Shibin, and said with a smile, "That's right, I think it's good too."

Wang Shibin's face darkened, and he felt depressed for a while, so he couldn't help but curse secretly: "Old fox!"

The test paper he was referring to was naturally not Qi Muyuan's as he guessed, but Du Jinning's.

Qi Bokun had already greeted him, and if Qi Muyuan still couldn't get Jieyuan after trying his best, then he would bite Du Jinning to death.Du Jinning is not a member of any faction, so Pan Yiting has no choice but to arrest him.But Du Jinning's friendship with the Qi family is almost equivalent to half of the eldest prince's faction.It is better for Du Jinning to get the name of Jie Yuan than to let people from the Second Prince's or Fourth Prince's or Fifth Prince's faction get it.

Therefore, Wang Shibin's plan to throw Du Jinning out was also considered asking for directions.Otherwise, he would directly point out Qi Muyuan's test paper. The goal was too obvious, and Pan Yiting would definitely use his right as the examiner to veto it.At that time, no matter how hard he argues, it will be of no avail.Throwing out Du Jinning's test paper is the safest way.Once Pan Yiting directly denies this one, and he takes the opportunity to take out Qi Muyuan's test paper, that will be exactly what he wanted.

But he didn't expect that Wang Shibin would not play cards according to common sense, and even agree with the test paper he pointed out, which made Wang Shibin so depressed that he almost spit out old blood.

Doesn't he have a candidate for himself?

But think about it, even if Du Jinning wins, at least it won't benefit the second prince.With the Second Prince's faction being the chief examiner, Du Jinning, who was close to the First Prince's faction, could win the prize, and he, the deputy chief examiner, could also confess to the higher authorities.

Thinking of this, his expression relaxed.

Pan Yiting saw all his expressions, sneered in his heart, and became more and more sure that the test paper Wang Shibin released was not Qi Muyuan's.

The chief examiner and the deputy chief examiner have great power, and the same examiners can only assist in marking the papers, and they don't have much to say about who will be the judge.

But the fourth prince sent two fellow examiners, and felt that the combined strength of the two was equivalent to one chief examiner.They naturally want to work for their own interests.Seeing that Pan Yiting and Wang Shibin were fighting fiercely at this time, he was overjoyed, and quickly pushed out a test paper they were looking for: "A certain person thinks that this test paper is brilliant and outstanding, so it should be Jieyuan."

Back in Beijing, there was a lot of competition over who would be the chief examiner and who would be the deputy chief examiner, and the benefits were distributed time and time again.People from the faction of the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince failed to compete with the First Prince and the Second Prince, and were reduced to co-examiners. How could Pan Yiting and Wang Shibin allow the two co-examiners to intervene in the nominal arrangement?
The two glanced at the test paper, took turns to find fault with the article in the test paper, and directly denied it with aspirations: "This candidate is not good enough to be a solution."

　Once you suffer from insomnia, you will feel dizzy and unintelligible, and the code text will take one or two times longer than usual.It's so late again, sorry
