Dao fruit.

"Everyone, there is no need to continue arguing, this exam paper..."

Wang Fu turned his gaze and landed on the examination paper. He was very clear about the contents of the examination paper. He had browsed it many times these days, and each time he had a new feeling, and the feeling of confidant in his heart became stronger.

In this examination, the level of candidates was uneven. Many candidates had only a half-knowledge of the new law, and the words they wrote were completely different from the new law. Wang Fu deeply felt that there was a long way to go. Angry and scolding, belittling the new law is worthless.

If these people really have something to say, point out the disadvantages of the new law, but many people don't even understand the content of the new law, they just judge and criticize according to the "new law" in their hearts. Looking at these examination papers, Wang Fu was very angry. Every time I see it, I have to take a look at Qiu Yan's exam paper afterwards to calm down my anger.

Qiu Yan's examination paper, in terms of understanding of the new law and consideration of the disadvantages of Darui's folks, no one can beat it in this test!

This kind of examination paper is what Wang Fu really wants. It not only tells the current problems, but also thinks for himself, trying to come up with solutions. In addition, the parts of the scriptures and Mo Yi are also neat and clear, showing the candidates' profound basic skills.

But now, this exam paper that Wang Fu is most concerned about has to face the situation of being suppressed by life, but he has to consider the balance between the two parties, advance and retreat, and now is not the time to tear his face.

It's just that to suppress such an article will inevitably make him unhappy, and.The policy theory in this volume is even more literary and dyed paper. When such a character appeared in ancient times, he should immediately attract attention.

This is also the reason why the examiners of the old party dare not go too far. Even if they suppressed it, they gave it No.2. Otherwise, according to their thinking, this kind of policy theory with a deep understanding of the new law must be suppressed to a corner where no one is around, or even dismissed. give up.

At the end of the day, though.It is because the text dyes the examination papers.But no vision appeared, otherwise there would be a vision to back it up, and the whole city would know about it, so give them some courage.I dare not lie to the sky.

Hearing Wang Fu speak.The examiners who were arguing stopped talking.Focusing on the past, the conclusion of this coffin will be decided by Wang Fu after all.

but.No matter whether the new party or the old party, they were determined in their hearts at this time, thinking that the overall situation was under control, and the old party felt that Wang Fu would make some concessions, otherwise it would be too much.

The New Party originally knew that there would be a compromise in the rankings this time, and it was a little uncomfortable, but in the end they came out with a policy theory for dyeing the test papers, and the content advocated leaning towards the New Party.

Sensing everyone's gaze, Wang Fu took a deep breath. He could speak eloquently in court and in front of the emperor, let alone facing a crowd of examiners.

"The original purpose of the imperial examination is to select scholars for the country. As long as talented people are selected, that is enough. As for the ranking, it is the second..."

Hearing this, the examiner of the old party was determined and smiled, while the examiner of the new party was solemn and his expression changed slightly.

On the other side, Wang Fu's words continued: "It's just that when we wait for the examiner to act, we must be worthy of the country, the country, and the conscience of the world. The people we choose are not only talents in one subject, but also related to future government affairs. Let's take a step back. , It is also related to the comments of future generations, I am here by the emperor's order, remember to be fair, and not abolish the public for personal reasons!"

As he spoke, his eyes fell on the examination paper.

His words and actions turned the atmosphere in the room upside down, why couldn't everyone present hear them, these words were just a prelude!

In fact, when the examination paper was first graded, due to the rules, the examiners had seen the examination paper, but not many people saw the content, but they could not hide it for more than 20 days.

Therefore, although the examiners don't know who wrote the test paper, they at least know that the test paper has caused a storm. When marking the papers, the examiners are not holding the original papers, but the rewritten papers.

Sure enough, Wang Fu went on to say: "This test paper should be the first name!"

This time, Hu Yong and Luo Zhongjie's expressions inevitably changed, and Zheng Quan, who knew the inside story, was even more surprised.

Many old party examiners stared wide-eyed. They didn't believe that Wang Fu would not know the consequences of doing so. One imperial examination, all the benefits were taken by one side, and the old and new parties were likely to tear themselves apart. Disagreements are mixed, and there is also a reason!

Immediately afterwards, someone slapped the table and stood up, but it was an old party examiner: "Prince Wang, don't deceive people too much!" His words could be said to be disrespectful, but Wang Fu didn't pursue it, and waved his hand lightly.

Wang Fu knew that when he made this decision, he had to be mentally prepared to face possible counterattacks, but in order to show that he valued that candidate, he still decided to be firm.

If everything is compromised, there is no need to change this method. He has already had such an idea. Now it is just an opportunity. The new party is gradually gaining ground, and it is time to test the other party's bottom line.

Therefore, regardless of the heavy pressure, Wang Fu said decisively: "Go and get the original volume, open the seal and fill in the name!"

"This..." The examiners looked at each other in blank dismay, while Mi Fengguan turned around and left. Now that the ranking has been decided, it is necessary to prepare a list so that it can be passed on to the Ministry of Rites and released to the world.

But there are still many old party examiners who are unwilling to admit defeat. They first looked at Hu Yong, and found that the latter had no intention of showing up. Finally, some people couldn't help but blame Wang Fu: "President Wang asked us to uphold justice, but he himself is selfish. You made such a choice because of trouble!"

"Huh? How do you say that!" Wang Fu narrowed his eyes, and there was an invisible coercion radiating out. This is not a supernatural power, but an aura formed by nourishing Qi and hope.

The examiner who spoke was not very old, he looked only in his twenties, but to become an examiner, at least he was a Jinshi, and most of them were bachelors. This man was a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, named "Zou Kang".

Facing Wang Fu's question, Zou Kang didn't flinch at all, straightened his neck, and said sonorously: "This examination paper, although the writing is extraordinary, is too biased. I have established the country in Darui for nearly a hundred years, and the emperors of all dynasties have worked hard to govern, but it is in the mouth of this examinee. , The world is full of loopholes, and the country seems to be about to collapse! What does this mean? Does it mean that the more the rulers and ministers of the past dynasties govern, the more chaotic the world will be?"

He looked directly into Wang Fu's eyes, and said coldly: "In ancient times, the folk customs were simple, and the order of the world was easier to show. Therefore, what the sages said can be close to the essence. This is the principle that is applicable everywhere! When Da Rui established the country, the world was initially determined , a thousand wastes are waiting to be prosperous, and the same can be done to get rid of the tediousness and see the essence. The rules and regulations established to frame the outline of the world, after several generations of kings' governance and development, human nature can only get better and better, but according to the examinee's statement, it is completely That's not the case!"

Word by word, resonant!

But Wang Fu shook his head and said: "At the beginning, the predecessors set up the structure, and as long as the future generations are perfect, they must be developing, but how do you know what the predecessors really mean?"

Seeing that Zou Kang was about to speak again, he waved his hands and said, "Don't argue, I just want to ask you, do you really understand what the predecessors said? Do you really understand? Or, do you really read it?" What? If you don’t understand it, don’t see it clearly, or even haven’t seen it at all, it would be a bit arbitrary to say that you have reached the peak of humanity.”

Darui's many schools, based on the words of the predecessors, explain each other, and then collect the current situation to improve humanity. There are many disputes about this.

Zou Kang's face turned cold: "Ms. Wang is relying on the old to sell the youngest? Bullying Zou that he doesn't read enough books?"

Wang Fu frowned: "Since you are accusing, at least you must have something to say, and not rely on your own feelings! If a person from Yanzhao went to Lingnan to become an official, and the customs are very different, should he be accused and punished? Don't you To understand and guide, only think that the thoughts in your heart are right, and those that are different from your own cognition are wrong, it is either black or white, how to shepherd one side?"

There was already a hint of anger in these words. Wang Fu was upset by the examination papers these days, so he was not at all polite in his words at this time.

That Zou Kang is a native of Yanzhao, who lived in the capital after becoming a Jinshi. There have been rumors recently that he is going to be released to Lingnan. I don't know if it is true or not. Wang Fu's words are obviously a warning, and it has poured water on other eager people. The basin of cold water made them realize that Wang Fu was not easy to bully.

Maybe some folks say that the black-faced gentleman is upright and does not hold personal grudges. Maybe the person who sits in that position is not from the battle of thousands of troops. How can he be easy?

Zou Kang was so angry that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. After hearing this, his heart became cold and he finally calmed down.

Just at this time, Zheng Quan, Li Kuo and other Mifeng officials came back with the examination papers, interrupting the embarrassment in the room.

These examination papers are selected from thousands of copies, divided according to the Taoist government they belong to, and classified into categories. Many people are mobilized to draw out according to the rankings, so that they can be sorted out in a short time.

The next step is to unpack and fill in the names in order.

A special official was in charge of reading the names, and Wang Fu didn't waste time. As soon as the test paper came, he urged everyone to do it. He also really wanted to know who wrote the test paper.

The name-reading process was not long, but it touched people's hearts, because some candidates were inextricably linked with the examiners present, and when each name was read, some people were moved by it.

Arranged from back to front.

"No.3, Jiangnan Road, Wen Zhizhen!"

After the name was pronounced, everyone's expressions changed slightly. They knew Wen Zhizhen's reputation to some extent, and how many people knew that Wen Zhizhen was good at trying to figure out people's hearts. They suspected that the policy theory was written by him, but they didn't expect to hear his name now!

"No.2, Lingnan Road, Ye Yun!"

As soon as this name came out, most people were surprised, and many people were confused, apparently they had never heard of this name.

However, they settled down again afterward, because the main event was coming.

It will soon be known who wrote that test paper!

Li Kuo, who was standing next to the celebrity, felt suspicious because the name he had been paying attention to did not seem to appear.

"Could it be that you're an errand? If Qiu Yan doesn't make the list, Master Tian's plan..."

Just as he was thinking, the last name was finally announced——

"No.1, Jiannan Road, Qiu Yan!" (To be continued...)
