"It is to eliminate the two major cancers in the literary world in one fell swoop."

"Greatness in the present age, benefit in the future!"

So no matter what, he has decided on this matter, and no one can stop him!

of course.

This undoubtedly directly affected a large group of people such as Liu Ji and Liu Fengshan outside the Imperial College at this time.

I'm afraid Liu Ji never imagined that he was lucky enough to escape in the examination room because of Qi Heng.

In the end, he still lost Sun Shan because of Qi Heng's name.

……

Wang Gui, Mei Zhi, and Han Jiang all looked at each other in blank dismay.

After all, the ancient style is the general trend, and the vast majority of officials who approve papers here today are actually following the ancient style.

They did not object to Ouyang Xiu's belittling of Taixue style and Xikun style.

It's just that it matters.

Although Ouyang Xiu took everything, they still couldn't help persuading him.

"Uncle Yong."

"No one questions your starting point and public spirit."

"But you should also consider that Taixue Ti and Xikun Ti have a large number of students, and some of them have excellent writing and outstanding talents."

"Could it be that 05 really didn't want to take them, but instead went to take some half-literate and shallow people?"

Ouyang Xiu looked awe-inspiring.

"Of course the superficial people can't take it."

"But if you want to clean up the literary world, you can only do it hard!"

"Let all students in the world see that Xikun style and Taixue style... are not used by the imperial court."

"In the future, no one will learn from it."

When he said this, he couldn't help but sigh——

Officialdom is always the vane of literati.

Qi Yuanruo was the first to put forward this principle.

No matter how selfish and ambitious that kid is, the insight and style he displayed really makes people have to admire.

"You are too domineering."

"I have been in the court for hundreds of years, and I have never heard of such rules as you!"

The three of Wang Gui were aware of Ouyang Xiu's determination, so they stopped persuading him.

But there are so many officials here, naturally there are also officials from the Imperial College.

Immediately there were objections.

But Ouyang Xiu wanted to play his prestige to the end today.

He didn't even look at the man.

"From today, there will be this rule!"

"Since the officials have appointed me as the chief examiner, naturally I have the final say on the criteria for selecting scholars!"

"Anyone who doesn't want to obey my rules...please do it yourself!"

The voice fell.

Several officials then stood up immediately, making it clear that they did not want to be so angry.

But I didn't think so.

Ouyang Xiu immediately said again: "It's agreed in advance."

"I will join you in disobeying the superior and refusing to obey orders. Don't blame me for not being sympathetic!"

then.

The officials who were half up sat back silently.

There is no way.

Recently, he and Zhang Fangping and others are gaining momentum, it is really not easy to offend them.

Even if they want to fight for those students——

But those who know current affairs are heroes.

Those who can pass the Jinshi examination and participate in this talent ceremony are of course all outstanding.

Moreover.

Ouyang Xiu was responsible for poking a hole in the sky, let's see how he ends up in the future!

"Since everyone has no opinion."

"Then let's start dividing the papers!"

Ouyang Xiu looked around at the crowd, seeing that no one disobeyed his rules, he gave the last order.

A long time to come.

They will all stay here to mark and mark the papers.

Thousands of examination papers, each of which took ten days or eight days, could not produce results.

……

During the approval of papers, Ouyang Xiu really did what he said.

Any examination papers of Xikun style and Taixue style were ruthlessly obliterated by him. After a few days, the examiners in the room couldn't bear to kill them, and their hands softened.

at last.

An official walked to his desk holding a test paper.

"Mr. Ouyang."

"This test paper is brilliant in writing and solid in knowledge. It is really rare to see."

"Help me, can you be merciful?"

Ouyang Xiu stared at him for a long time. Seeing that the official still refused to back down, he stretched out his hand to take the exam paper.

Open it up——

The first sentence is, heaven and earth roll, everything grows, and saints grow.

There is nothing wrong with this sentence itself, and the article is not bad.

But the key point is that if it can be described by the phrase "the sage who created the world" can be described, what do we have to say that the world is rolling and everything is thriving?

Afraid that others will understand?

Ouyang Xiu was expressionless.

"An article that talks about facts, what kind of word games are you playing?"

"What is there to show mercy?"

"Depose!"

The official took back the test paper with great regret.

He shook his head and sighed.

"The next official is also from the Tai Academy."

"I usually have a lot of contacts with the students of the Taiyuan Academy."

"If my judgment is correct, this examination paper... should be written by Liu Ji."

"He is the number one scholar recognized by the Tai Academy this year."

"How could..."
