women are thinking, but they themselves are secretly thinking.
At present, Luoyang City, from the peddlers and pawns to the princes and magnates, all focus their attention on the palace.
In the Xuanzheng Palace, a major event that determines the fate of the candidates is going on - the palace examination.
Compared with the examination, the palace examination has only one question, and the question is much simpler.
But in this place where the people's livelihood is decided every day, and the center of the power in the world, the tension of the candidates is more than a hundred times a thousand times.
Only the top 100 jinshi in the general examination are qualified for the temple examination.
The bright bricks, the hall of vermilion lacquer and gold pillars, the guards standing at the entrance of the main hall, and the solemn atmosphere all made these students feel awe and tremble.
On the day before entering the palace, they gathered in the tribute courtyard, and the etiquette department member Wailang specially demonstrated and explained the etiquette rules of seeing the driver, and let them practice repeatedly.
When entering the palace from Duanmen early this morning, a group of students went through a body search and interrogation, which increased the tense atmosphere even more.
Some of them have never experienced the scene, but they only feel that their hearts are beating like a drum and sweating like pulp.
Sitting behind the answering questions, the hands holding the pen were trembling, and I couldn't concentrate on writing.
Emperor Qinglong sat on the dragon chair, condescendingly looking down on the candidates below, taking in their movements.
He could understand their nervousness, but they weren't going to be of much use.
Immediately, his eyes swept over them and placed them on the ten students in the first row.
They are the top ten in this exam, and he has read their articles one by one.
In front of Quan Moxian, there is a set of four treasures of the study room and a thick stack of rice paper.
He sat concentratingly, not humility or arrogance, as steady as Mount Tai.
This kind of mind made Emperor Qinglong's gaze stay on him for two more breaths.
At this time, the atmosphere in the hall was already tense to the extreme, and some students even began to tremble uncontrollably.
The power of heaven is unpredictable, they don't know why, and at this time, the temple test has not yet begun.
Wu Shangshu, who was standing in front, understood in his heart that the palace test had started since they came in, and it was not just about answering questions.
After two more breaths, Emperor Qinglong nodded to Wu Guangqi, a confidant eunuch beside him.
Only then did Wu Guangqi open his voice and sang: "In the third year of Qinglong, the palace test began to answer." ” The Jinshi finally breathed a sigh of relief and fixed their minds to look at the topic in front of them.
In just a moment, everyone's expressions became solemn again, and many people turned into bitter gourd faces.
It's not a long question, but it's too difficult!
One of the most critical sentences is: The official who lives has not migrated for many years, and the corpse is vegetarian?
Would you rather lack than abuse?
Out of place?
This is the topic personally formulated by Emperor Qinglong, which means that a person who holds the same official position has not been promoted for many years, what is the reason?
And three options are offered.
Three choices are three directions.

Obviously, candidates can only choose one of the directions to answer.
This, which direction is the real answer in Emperor Qinglong's heart?
If you choose the wrong one from the beginning, no matter how colorful you write, it will be difficult to enter the eyes of the emperor.
Moreover, this question has the intention of criticizing current politics and current affairs, which is quite sharp.
Except for Emperor Qinglong himself, no one dared to have such the courage to come up with this topic.
It's also hard to grasp the proportions.
The jinshi only felt that the sweat that had just been withdrawn came out again at this moment, and they secretly complained in their hearts.
After reading the question, Quan Moxian was silent for a few breaths, and then closed his eyes and began to ponder.
This move provoked Wu Shangshu to look at him several times.
He won the Huiyuan in one fell swoop during the examination, and he was the tribute yuan of the township examination, and Wu Shangshu was very familiar with him.
This question is difficult, and most of the candidates present can answer it decently.
But for him, Wu Shangshu has certain expectations.
However, on such a solemn occasion, he actually closed his eyes!
What is this place for him?
It's too much.
Wu Shangshu's brows furrowed a few times before he looked away at the other students.
The scale of this palace test can be called the largest since the founding of Gao Mang.
Normally, there will be no more than 20 people in the temple examination.
When the first emperor took the scholars, it was once expanded to 50.
For the emperor, it was enough to take the exam among the best people in the examination.
But Emperor Qinglong was different, he was tough, and set a hundred jinshi to participate in the palace examination, and no one dared to put a beak.
Although this is different from the ancestral practice, there is no need to compete with the emperor on this point; Second, after Emperor Qinglong ascended the throne, there were many vacancies in the official system from top to bottom, and one person often held multiple positions.
The expansion of the scale is conducive to the replenishment of officials.
When it comes to the reasons for the shortage, many officials will have a chill in the back of their necks.
In the first year of Qinglong, the blood shed at the mouth of the vegetable market is still fresh in my memory.
For three days in a row, the severed heads on the execution ground were piled up.
No matter how beautiful you are, you tasted defeat with death at that moment.
Emperor Qinglong's gaze swept over the candidates in the field one by one like an eagle falcon, and when he saw Quan Moxian with his eyes closed, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked up with a smile.
This young man is worthy of the title of Gongyuan Huiyuan, and his heart shows a rare calmness.
The temple test is limited to three hours.
Standing on the sundial outside the Xuanzheng Palace, the shadow quietly passed by for a moment, and the students in the hall began to write one after another.
Time is limited, no matter how difficult it is to choose, you have to choose one to start answering.
This is a policy rather than a poem, and those three answers, after being derived, will all involve the fundamental official system.
And this is closely related to the candidates present.
After today's palace examination, it is the beginning of their career.
We all know that Emperor Qinglong likes to work hard and has the heart of forging ahead.
This is not difficult to figure out.
After Emperor Qinglong ascended the throne, he was in a subtle innovation, and you can know his determination.
Therefore, this policy is written conservatively and cannot be brilliant, let alone win the emperor's approval.
If it is written radically, it will violate the interests of the existing officials.
They are newcomers to officialdom, and many times, they offend the predecessors of the scientific field, and their careers are even bleaker than not being concerned by the emperor.
The king of a country has all kinds of opportunities, even if he gets a few words of praise, the veteran of officialdom has countless ways to make it impossible for you to appear in front of the emperor again in your life.
It's forcing them to make a choice.
The shadow of the sundial moved slowly, and the various Jinshi in the hall had different expressions.
Some have sad faces, some scratch their ears and cheeks, some have confused eyes, and some have a resolute face.

Some of the pen is slow, and it takes a long time to drop a word, and the pen weighs a thousand pounds.
In some cases, a lot of waste paper was thrown on top of them, and they were obviously not satisfied with what they had written.
They can be called the best 100 scholars in the whole Gaomang, and when they are all immersed in learning, they forget that this is the Xuanzheng Palace, and they forget those tensions.
But one of them never put pen to paper, and he didn't even open his eyes.
