Li Xin changed the water a few times, washed it cleanly, changed his clothes and came out, Mrs.
Zhang had already set up the meal in the room, but it was just a porridge and side dishes.
Seeing Li Xin coming in, Mrs.
Zhang hurriedly greeted him, "I instructed the kitchen, don't eat more meat for the first two meals, this porridge is boiled out of chicken soup, you drink a bowl, don't eat more." ” Watching Li Xin eat a good meal, Mrs.
Zhang asked with concern: "It's nothing to do in the past few days, it's raining in the middle, although it's not big, is it drenched?"
"Nope."
Li Xin bowed slightly, "Let my mother worry."
This exam, from the entrance to the venue, was smooth, the score number was also excellent, close to the examiner, and Lu Dalang, Ji Dalang next to each other, every hour and half an hour, there were handymen to send hot water to clean up the urine bucket, but I didn't suffer much. ” This exam is better than when he took the autumn camp, I don't know how much, the weather was still hot at that time, the number he divided was not close to the big urine bucket but not far away, under the scorching sun, the buzzing of flies was simply deafening, it also rained in the middle of that time, and there was a leak in his small room, fortunately, there was an oilcloth, in nine days, I had not seen a few times of miscellaneous servants, this time the exam number was far away from the big urine bucket, and the miscellaneous servants served in a timely manner, better than last time I don't know how much.
This is a blessing to many people.
"Let's let the eldest brother go back and sleep well first, the eldest brother's eyes are all cut in."
Li Tong pursed his lips and smiled.
In Li Xin's few words, they have already said everything they want to know.
"Look at me, go back and rest, sleep as long as you want, sleep well and sleep enough" Mrs.
Zhang called Qingping in again and gave a few words, and then sent Li Xin back to rest quickly.
Li Xinzhi slept for a day and a night, recuperated for a few days, recovered his spirits, and the list was also released outside the Gongyuan, Ji Shuying, Lu Yan and Li Xin's names were all in the forefront, Ji Shuying's three clan brothers, one in the exam, two failed, and the four people in the Ji family won two in the exam, and Ji Shuying was among the best again, which was already very impressive.
Tang Haoyu, the eldest young master of the Tang family, Gao Ziyi, the fifth master of the Gao Shujiang family, and Zhao Mingxuan, the youngest son of Zhao Shilang of the Ministry of Rites, are also on the list, and Sun Bangrui, the eldest grandson of Master Sun, is on the list, but he is still young, and this is the first time he has taken the Spring Examination, that is, he is a little uncomfortable, but he doesn't care very much.
Li Tong asked people to copy the entire list and came back, and at a glance he saw that Chen Anbang's name was sandwiched between Ji Shuying and Lu Yan, this is the champion of the last time, will it still be the champion this time Not two days after the release of the list, it was the palace examination, the palace examination was placed in the Wende Palace, the small tables were placed neatly, the palace examination only tested a policy theory, and the examination questions were announced.
The emperor took the crown prince and looked at them one by one along the middle of the examination table unhurriedly, looking at the people and the words, and they were very interested.
The crown prince followed the emperor, walked to Gao Ziyi's table, looked sideways for a while, and then continued to walk forward.
At the end of the palace examination, the papers were collected, and the candidates respectfully withdrew in turn, and were led out of the palace by the inner attendants.
Xie Shangshu and other examiners collected all the papers, and began to read the papers in the hall, this policy was commented on quickly, Xie Shangshu took a few deputy examiners, holding the papers that had been lined up, and entered the Ziji Palace.
"Congratulations to the emperor, this palace test, all the articles are masterpieces, the ministers are in a dilemma, weigh again and again, and pick out these four strategies, which can be the first, please ask the emperor to decide."
Xie Shangshu congratulated the emperor with a smile on his eyebrows and accepted the world's talents in the court, and presented the four articles selected with both hands.
The emperor took over the four policy theories, looked at them carefully, and the prince was also busy reading them, the emperor looked at the policy theories, but the prince read the names written on the articles.
"What about Gao Ziyi's strategy" The prince flipped back, didn't see Gao Ziyi's name, turned his head to look at Xie Shangshu and asked.
Xie Shangshu's face did not change at all, he turned around and found Gao Ziyi's strategy from the volume held by the deputy examiner, and presented it to the prince, the prince took it, swept it through ten lines at a glance, and put Gao Ziyi's strategy on the kang table in front of the emperor, while looking at Xie Shangshu and said: "I look at Gao Ziyi's strategy is excellent, and you have made it a pearl." ” The faces of several deputy examiners changed slightly, and the smile on Xie Shangshu's face did not change at all, neither nodding nor arguing, just waiting for the emperor to finish reading these strategies.
The emperor didn't read it quickly, but the palace test strategies were short, but in just over a quarter of an hour, the emperor read and understood the four strategies picked out by Shangshu, as well as the strategies of Gao Ziyi, who was added by the crown prince.
"What does Xie Qing mean" Xie Shangshu told the emperor poetry in his early years, he was easy-going and humorous when he was young, and the emperor's impression of him was good from then to now, and he has always been extremely courteous.
"Ji Shuying, Chen Anbang, Lu Yan and Li Xin's four policy theories, pragmatic and feasible, reasonable and clear, each with its own unique views in practice, the minister thinks that there are so many talents regardless of the middle, congratulations to the emperor."
Xie Shangshu congratulated again, and never raised Ziyi's strategy.
"What about Gao Ziyi's article," the emperor asked, pulling out Gao Ziyi's strategy.
"Gao Ziyi's policy is clear and clear, and the writing is brilliant, but it is a little unrealistic in practice, and I think it is slightly inferior to Ji Shuying, Chen Anbang, Lu Yan and Li Xin."
Xie Shangshu bowed his head and replied, as if he didn't know the prince's angry gaze.
"Hmm."
The emperor lined up the five articles on the kang table, "I also think so, so do you think that Xie Qing thinks that Ji Shuying, Chen Anbang, Lu Yan and Li Xin, which of the four should be the leader?"
"Back to the emperor, the minister has picked out these four strategies, and he is embarrassed until now, but he still has no idea, and the minister feels that everyone should be the leader."
Xie Shangshu's face showed joy and distress, and the emperor laughed, "Push the most difficult thing to me again" "Gao Ziyi's strategy, how unrealistic" The prince interjected a little arrogantly.
"Xie Qing is right," without waiting for Xie Shangshu to answer, the emperor took over first, "Gao Ziyi's strategy, which is unrealistic, I will leave this question to you, in government affairs, you have to have more experience." ” "Yes."
The prince was reluctant but had to pretend to be vain and bowed down and replied, and when he straightened up, he glared at Xie Shangshu fiercely.
"Which of these four talents is better to be the leader" The emperor picked up Gao Ziyi's strategy from the kang table and handed it to the prince, and looked at the four articles on the kang table, looking at it, his brows became tighter and tighter.
"Ji Shangshu was born as a champion, if he is a father and son champion, it is also a rare story in history."
Ji Shuying is Xie Shangshu's preferred candidate, seeing the emperor's hesitation, Xie Shangshu quietly beat the side drum.
"Hmm."
The emperor picked up Ji Shuying's article, held it up, looked at it and asked, "I remember that Lao Ji Cheng was also from a first-class background at a very young age":
