Chapter 524 Miscellaneous remarks on civil affairs, before becoming a dragon

The face of the official surnamed Hu was livid, not because of anger, but because of excessive shock.

He was able to get to this position, he was well-informed, and he was considered a talented person when he was young. How could he not know the reputation of a sage?

However, the production process of sage paper seems to be ordinary, but some links have been kept secret, but there is no impenetrable wall in the world. The method of infecting sage paper has long been circulated among scholars, but it is not complete , are all scratchy, and it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false. Even if you want to verify it, ordinary scholars and officials do not have that condition.

However, such incomplete rumors were enough to shock others. Now that Wang Fu sighed, the officials surnamed Hu and Luo Zhongjie were a little scared when they thought of the fragments in the rumors.

Wang Fu raised his head, glanced at the two of them, noticed their expressions, and said, "Hu Yong, Luo Zhongjie, you two have handled this matter well, and you didn't dismiss this test paper rashly, otherwise, if you pursue it, I'm afraid it will even kill me." This examiner will be implicated, this time, someone can dye the paper with humanities, and with his own power, almost stain the ordinary paper into sage paper, this is a sign that the kingdom is about to revive!"

After hearing Wang Fu's evaluation, Hu Yong and Luo Zhongjie breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, knowing that after passing a test, with Wang Fu's words, there will be no laughing stock in the history books in the future, and it may even become a good talk.

Wang Fu said again: "This matter should be reported to the report as soon as possible. The Holy Majesty also attaches great importance to this test, and such things should be reported to the palace as soon as possible."

Luo Zhongjie took advantage of the situation and said, "Should we remove the title first, so that the emperor can feel at ease and know the name of a virtuous person?"

"It's not urgent, we have to follow the rules." Wang Fu put the examination paper on the table and reached out to turn the pages.Looking at the parts of Jing Yi and Mo Yi, he couldn't help but nodded, "That's right, he is indeed a character who can dye sage paper. This handwriting has a charm. It seems to contain physical energy and blood. The understanding of Jing Yi and Mo Yi, It is also dignified and upright, which shows that it has a profound foundation and a full foundation."

Next to him, Hu Yong saw Luo Zhongjie talking with Wang Fu.He seemed to be very optimistic about this test paper, and secretly thought that something was wrong, and couldn't help but interrupted: "Mr. Wang, this article really infects the ordinary test paper into a sage paper?"

Wang Fu shook his head: "That's not true. This paper only has the characteristics of the sage paper, but what is contained in it is the examinee's thoughts and opinions, which can make the readers pure their minds, cleanse their thoughts, and often observe the ability Comprehend the deep meaning of it, and the real sage paper is almost a medium. It allows people to touch the human order through the paper..."

Hu Yong and Luo Zhongjie pricked up their ears, they could hear that what Wang Fu said was secretive, and seemed to touch on the secrets of sages, but when the two of them were tense, Wang Fu's words stopped abruptly!

"What's going on?" Feeling empty, they couldn't get up or down. They raised their eyes and noticed that Wang Fu frowned.Looking at the test paper in his hand, his lips slightly opened and closed, probably reading silently.

Looking at the examination paper again, it was densely packed on that side, and it was clearly an essay.

The essays for this test centered on the phrase "cheap grain hurts the peasants; expensive grain hurts the end".

This saying has been circulating for a long time, Hu Yong and Luo Zhongjie know it, and they can understand the truth behind it, but the imperial examinations in the past did not involve this kind of thing. , to test the overall situation.

"When it comes to grains, the structure is too small, and repeated explanations and analyzes may not be successful. The smart people among the candidates will probably use this sentence as a quotation, extend it, and make use of it. Among them, the best can see clearly The situation will be combined with the new law, but after all, we can’t see it clearly and loftily compared to those who live in the temple.”

Hu Yong and Luo Zhongjie had the same thought at this moment, but what Wang Fu said next made them stunned——

"Cheap grain hurts the peasants, expensive also hurts the peasants, cheap is the least profitable, and expensive is the least profitable?"

Wang Fu chewed on this sentence, while Hu Yong and Luo Zhongjie looked astonished, and they didn't care about anything else. They stepped forward two steps, came to Wang Fu's side, and also looked at the essay, followed by a change in expression.

"This examinee's view is strange. If the grain is cheap, it will hurt the farmers, but if the price is high, the farmers will also be hurt. On the contrary, no matter how high or low the grain is, merchants can benefit? Why does this person say such words? "

Hu Yong's face was gloomy, he smelled a bit dangerous from this essay.

Luo Zhongjie smiled, pointed to a sentence on the roll and said, "Isn't this an explanation? When the season is harvested, the farmers have to pay off their debts and taxes, so they will sell grain collectively. When there is more grain, the merchants will take the opportunity to lower the price. Cheap grain hurts the farmers and it is not profitable, but in this way, farmers have limited food in their hands. If they want to sow as usual, they have to find merchants to buy seeds. In this way, merchants can buy low and sell high, which is expensive and hurts farmers And Lemos!"

"Farmers grow their own food, so how can there be no seeds to sow?" Hu Yong raised a point, but Luo Zhongjie stopped him. Although the two of them were not from aristocratic families, they were not considered descendants of farmers, and they had a little knowledge of farming. I understand, but I didn't go deep into the fields. I made several visits, accompanied by subordinate staff, and was often deceived. Therefore, when thinking about farming, most of them relied on common sense and divorced from reality.

"You don't know enough about folk affairs," Wang Fu said at the right time, "However, this candidate's explanation is the most extreme situation after removing various factors, but it also shows the impact of businessmen hoarding grain. The disadvantages of farming!" When he spoke, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Hu and Luo were startled by this cold light, and they suddenly thought of the situation where many merchants in Xingjing City are hoarding food and forcing the new law by relying on their background.

"Could this candidate be speculating?" In an instant, both of them had such an idea.

Nahu Yong said: "Since I have said in this life that 'the noble and the poor will hurt the peasants', is there a solution? Is it to suppress business?"

After saying this, Luo Zhongjie's expression changed slightly.

You must know that Darui's attitude towards merchants is very open-minded. Compared with the previous dynasty, it can be said to be more relaxed. Even the old party who opposed the reform has a positive attitude towards merchants. Qiao, merchants dredging "say.

Of course, the deep-seated reason is that merchants are involved in the interests of the DPRK and China.

In this general environment, if candidates hold the idea of ​​suppressing business, their future is likely to be affected.

After saying this sentence, Hu Yong continued to read. He was very wary of this candidate and was going to find a point or two in the article as a flaw, but he didn't expect that after reading this, he gradually became immersed.

This article doesn’t contain much rhetoric, it mostly describes the life of ordinary people in Shengdou, using simple words to record the trivial things they experienced. In normal times, none of the three people present had the leisure to pay attention to such articles.

But the article in front of me has something to say, seemingly trivial, but there is a clear connection, and it continues to point out one phenomenon after another.

Contrary to what Hu Yong thought, the article not only did not give a solution, but described one problem after another, such as rising prices, reducing copper coins, excessive miscellaneous taxes, land annexation...

The more you look at it, the more creepy you feel. It really is full of problems!

The reason for this effect is that the content in Gein is not fabricated, but comes from Qiu Yan's journey north and west to understand humanity and intercept the lives of believers. Every bit and drop has a real basis, and it is self-consistent everywhere. The joys and sorrows of several characters in the article, after the three of them read it, they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.

After a while, Hu Yong let out a sigh of relief and asked doubtfully, "Where did this candidate come from? How could he know so many things?"

Luo Zhongjie remained silent, but his face was extremely gloomy, and he felt a little uneasy.

"This article is plain and simple, completely different from Wen Zhizhen's writing style. I'm afraid it will be self-defeating."

In addition, he was also awakened by the things in the article, and his heart was heavy.

Although Luo Zhongjie joined the New Party, although he had political | political ambitions in mind, the main reason was power. However, after reading this essay, his speculative thoughts faded a little, and he gave birth to a few thoughts of reform and improvement!

As for Wang Fu, he narrowed his eyes slightly, showing a thoughtful look, and after a while, he said: "This essay must be read by the Holy Majesty!"

As soon as he said this, Hu Yong's face suddenly changed, he knew that Wang Fu had made a decision, and there was a sense of simplicity in this essay, which touched people's hearts. If the emperor saw it, it would have a huge impact, so he had to guard against it.

But he was inconvenient to object, so he could only say: "What is said in the article has yet to be verified, and it is a bit inappropriate to submit it to the sage rashly. Besides, the examinee did not give a solution, and it seems to be a reflection..."

Wang Fu glanced at him, and said calmly: "If an examinee can give a solution, what do I have to wait for?"

This sentence was already very strong, and Hu Yong closed his mouth rationally.

Wang Fu ignored the others, and opened the last part of the examination paper——

Policy theory!

This time, he made a move halfway through and snatched the position of chief examiner for the purpose of selecting talents. Leaving aside the classics and Mo Yi, the essays were just throwing stones and asking for directions, in order to get a feel for the candidates. Still discussing.

Policy theory, by extension, is similar to the policy program.

Ordinary candidates do not have corresponding experience, and the policies and theories they write must have flaws, but they can reveal their thoughts and political tendencies. An article that can move the examiner?

Now, because Qiu Yan's examination paper was smeared, the three people present did not know the identity of the examinee. After reading the essays, they had different opinions on the strategy part.

However, after being infected by the essays, it is inevitable that the heart is heavy, and the countermeasures part also has its own guess, thinking that it will be in the same line as the essays.

"If you just blindly look for disadvantages, you can be regarded as somewhat capable, but after all, it is difficult to see talent, and it is not easy to be classified into the top three."

With such thoughts in mind, Wang Fu looked at it intently, and the purpose of entering it was four words——

Can you talk about profit?

Just four words, but like a bolt of lightning, it flashed across my heart, bringing a light to my heavy heart!
