I'm so hard

Chapter 185
In the Daqing Palace, the five scholars were overwhelmed by the Shangguan's displeasure, and suddenly didn't know what to say to refute.

At this time, Shangguan Yuntun took a step forward and said, "Master Shangguan, there are three reasons why you advocate that this year's new policy is not appropriate. Neither?"

Shangguan thought about it displeasedly, and said: "It is indeed these three, so I think it will not be too late to start the new policy next year."

A faint smile appeared on Shangguan Yuntun's face, and he suddenly became confident.

"If there is a famine next year, if Northern Mongolia attacks again next year, then we will not implement administration because of this? I think that the reform of the New Deal has nothing to do with whether the money and food are sufficient, has nothing to do with whether other countries provoke disputes, and has nothing to do with the scholar-bureaucrats. It's irrelevant whether they will be angry or not, it's only about the officials implementing the New Deal."

"The setbacks encountered by the New Deal are not something we can solve after thinking about it and waiting for a while. The suffering is there and will never disappear. The only way we can solve it is to get over it."

"The three problems of the New Deal at present are redundant officials, redundant soldiers, and redundant system. If we wait another year, not only will we not be able to solve any problems, but it will cause those soldiers who should have retired to come up with other means to force Get rid of those who should have stayed in the barracks..."

Shangguan Yuntun, as if someone had opened up the two veins of Ren and Du, was chatting eloquently in the Daqing Hall, and several officials not far away even began to nod frequently.

After he finished speaking, Shangguan was displeased and naturally he was not to be outdone, and began to explain his point of view from other angles.

At this time, other scholars also began to join the battle.

These five people all knew that the content of the palace examination would definitely be related to the New Deal, so they were quite familiar with the contents of Zhao Yan's "Two Hundred Items of the New Deal".

In the blink of an eye, the policy debate in the Daqing Palace entered a fever pitch.

The six people stood in the center of the hall, each of them was spitting, and as soon as the others paused for a moment, the other quickly began to explain his point of view.

After a while, Shangguan got tired of being displeased, and gradually lost the upper hand no matter in terms of words or arguments.

Zhao Yan was sitting on the dragon chair, drinking black tea, and listening to the debate, he couldn't help but feel very good.

After half an hour, seeing that the mouths of the six people were dry, he immediately announced the end of the debate.

Then, the palace test is over.

As for who will win the No. [-] Scholar, No. [-], and Tanhua, the five scholars can only see it on tomorrow's gold list.

After the five scholars left the hall, Zhao Yan turned to Shangguan and Cai You and said, "You also write down the top three names in your mind and give them to me."

The two handed over at the same time, and they had almost confirmed the top three candidates.

Zhao Yan, on the other hand, went back to the Chui Gong Palace to rest.

……

The next day, just before dawn, the imperial street outside the imperial city, a wall where the imperial list was often posted, was full of scholars.

Today is the day for the gold list.

If it is on the list, it will be a carp that transforms into a dragon and goes straight to Qingyun. If it is not on the list, then it will have to wait another three years.

However, among the more than 8000 candidates who participated in the imperial examination, no more than 300 people could make the list.

The imperial examinations of the Great Zhou Dynasty followed the ancient system and were divided into three classes. The first class was awarded Jinshi and the first place. There were three people, namely the number one scholar, the second place, and Tanhua.

The second class is given Jinshi background, and the number of people varies, and it is generally judged according to the results of the test paper; the third class is awarded with Jinshi background, and the number is also different.

At this moment, Wu Wenyuan, Liu Jingming, Ximen Dechu, Shangguan Yuntun and others were also crowded in the crowd.

This sense of accomplishment of being named on the gold list may only come once in a lifetime, and everyone wants to witness it for themselves.

And at the outermost edge of the crowd, there were many carriages parked. In the carriages were rich businessmen, and even the rich businessman's lady. Outside, there were many servants holding ropes.

This is the most famous son-in-law of Da Zhou.

Naturally, these servants will not really kidnap the famous scholars on the list, but will surround them and bring them to their master or lady. If the two parties are destined, they may make a marriage on the spot.

Three years ago, there were more than a dozen scholars on the list, and they went directly to the wedding night in the bridal chamber that night.

But at this moment, at a corner, Zhao Yan and Hei Wa looked around excitedly.

Since Zhao Yan traveled through time, this was the first time he saw the gold list, and there was such entertainment as catching a son-in-law under the list, so he naturally wanted to come and have a look.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
At this moment, drums sounded one after another, and under the protection of a dozen guards from the imperial guards, two officials of Jixianyuan strode over with a large rolled up red paper.

Swish!
A long road gave way in an instant.

The surroundings also fell silent instantly, and everyone's eyes were on the red list.

Heart, pounding!
Whoa!Whoa!Whoa!
There was the sound of grouting on the walls.

The list slowly opened and began to stick to the wall.

At this time, an official of Jixian Academy said loudly: "In the three years of Longhe, a total of 255 scholars were recruited, including 3 first-class scholars, 67 second-class scholars, and 185 third-class scholars."

Immediately after the list was posted, the officials and soldiers left.

Boom!

At this moment, the scholars all rushed over.

"No. [-] Changdan Shangguan Yuntun!"

"No. [-] Shuzhou Li Mubai!"

"Traveling Flowers Luzhou Ximen Dechu!"

The top three in the first class are naturally the most eye-catching, even if someone loudly announced it.

Shangguan Yuntun burst into tears when he saw that his name was at the top of the list. After studying for so many years, he finally came out of it.

But at this moment, Wu Wenyuan from Hangzhou, with a pale face, got to the front from the crowd.

"I...how could I not be Yijia?"

He was on the gold list, and only saw his name at No.8 in the second class, so he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

"I've won, I've won, the 76th place in the top three, I've honored my ancestors for my Liu family!" A scholar ran wildly towards the street excitedly, it is estimated that tonight is destined to start a carnival! "

"Haha, I have studied hard for dozens of years, and the sky will not fail me! Tonight, I will treat you to Tianxianglou, Mr. Zhu, and everyone who comes will have a share!" A scholar raised his head to the sky and shouted, very excited.

……

And those who didn't enter the gold list are naturally lonely, and they only have to wait for three years to fight again.

At this moment, Zhao Yan saw not far away, a dark-skinned scholar was invited by several servants to a carriage next to him.

"Master Bai, as long as you marry my young lady, my family's thousand acres of fertile land, five shops, and six rice shops will all be yours!"

The scholar lifted his shirt, feeling a little excited, he said with a smile: "May I ask where Miss is?"

Bang!

Zhao Yan only saw the carriage swaying, and a fat woman in a dress weighing at least three hundred catties got out of the carriage.

"My lord, I am very satisfied with you!" After finishing speaking, the woman blinked her eyes deliberately, and the flesh on her body was also trembling.

A look of surprise flashed across the scholar's face, and then he cupped his hands suddenly and said: "Xiaosheng feels that he is not worthy of Miss, so I'm leaving!"

After saying that, the scholar immediately got into the crowd.

"Haha!" Zhao Yan who was not far away couldn't help laughing.

And the fat girl turned her face to see Zhao Yan, her face suddenly blushed, and she said shyly: "This young man is not bad, I... I'm not picky eaters!"

When Zhao Yan heard this, he ran away immediately.
