Transmigrating To The Ming Dynastys Imperial Examination - Chapter 276

Cui He is about to end this trial, and Cui Xie can’t be an examiner in order to avoid being suspected of being a brother. Therefore, he dared to leave the two candidates at home openly and was not afraid of impeachment fraud.

On the day when the list was released, Cui Xie skipped work and wandered out of the Imperial Academy, and personally copied the list: The Huiyuan position was filled with Lun Wenxu. Neither Cui He nor Xu Jing are on the list, but Cui He is in the 50th place on the vice list and can go to the Imperial College as a supervisor. Tang Yin was in the thirty-fourth place, and he was already doing well in the exam.

After all, in the original history, this department didn’t even pass Tang Bohu’s exam, and both Tang and Xu were directly brushed down at the first pass of Fangshi.

Not only was he not on the list, but because he had dealt with an extremely cold knowledge point developed by Cheng Minzheng, he flaunted Xu Jing everywhere, claiming that he would be the champion, and he was caught and accused them of cheating. Both Xu and Tang were sent to jail, and they were beaten into tricks by Qu, which involved deputy examiner Cheng Minzheng.

Afterwards, although Jin Yiwei found out that there was no actual bribery of buying the question, it was ruined by the four words of fraud in the department. Cheng Minzheng died of injuries within a few months after being released from prison. Xu and Tang’s reputation was completely ruined and their future was gone. Tang Bohu was later involved in the Ning King rebellion case, and the rest of his life was even more miserable…

Now the trial will go through peacefully, as long as the palace trial is passed, it should be fine.

He found a tea shop on the side of the road, handed over a few coins, and asked Xiao Er to send the list home, so that the three candidates who were closed at home would not wait.

In fact, he originally wanted to ask the three of them to come out and look at the rankings, but on the day they returned home after the exam, Tang and Xu both committed arrogance and conceit.

The third question in the final game of the test is a difficult problem beyond the outline. Almost all the examples from the field do not know its source. He naturally didnt know, so he could only answer indiscriminately according to the meaning of the topic. However, due to the rich collection of books at home, the two of Tang and Xu had read “Tai Zhai Ji” by the former Yuan Confucian Liu Yin and knew where the question came from. Place.

It was Liu Yin who used to criticize Taoism and secretly mocked Xu Heng, the great scholar of the time, for resigning from office and retiring because of his lack of ambition. After living in seclusion, he came back to work for Yuan Ting, stabbing him to retreat for advancement, and seek office through seclusion. article.

If you only look at the topic, it is about scholars who are unable to scrutinize the sages’ articles. On the surface, they are still learning the way of Confucius and Mencius. In fact, they have fallen into the doctrines of Boyi, Liu Xiahui, Zen, and Laozi that deviate from the right way. If you look at it from the perspective of the original work, you should know that the point of this question is to criticize Xu Heng for learning from Confucianism and Taoism, but he actually followed Lao’s way of “deceiving the world with tricks”.

Both Xu and Tang have read this book, and this question really hit their hands. After leaving the examination room, I heard so many people complaining that they didn’t know the source of this question. Two talented poets full of poems and books wanted to make this book “Take the Fast” rounded up, and touted each other endlessly.

Tang Bohu even declared at dinner: “I must be the champion in this class!”

Xu Jing enthusiastically supported them, Cui He looked at them enviously, and Zhu Zhishan, who came to eat a meal, also praised Tang Yin’s talent with Cui Xie.

Under the dim candlelight, no one could see that Cui Xie’s face changed slightly. He pursed his lips and said, “Sure enough, I am ambitious. I remember that Shouren Xiandi once wrote a “Lai Ke Zhuang Yuan Fu” and vowed to take the middle prize in the next section. His father Wang Xueshi wanted to achieve his ambition. So I tried my best to help him study, and it turned out to be what he wanted. Since Bohu also has this aspiration, although I am not as talented as Wang Xueshi, I have to do my best to help you prepare for the palace exam in the past few days.”

Tang Yin’s smug air immediately dissipated, like a frost-beaten eggplant, and he screamed: “We have simulated many policy questions. Seeing that the palace examination is about to come, it is time to let go of the article and cultivate the spirit… “

Cui Xie lowered his eyes and smiled coldly.

Since then, or since entering Cui’s house, Xu and Tang have not gone out again. Cui Xie personally asked more than ten questions about current affairs, and in the name of helping Tang Yin get the number one scholar, he shut them up at home and continued the mock test.

Now that the test list is released, two of the three failed, and the atmosphere at home is also a bit solemn.

After he got home, he and his brother bowed their heads in a dull manner. Xu Jing’s expression was also a bit sad. Even Tang Yin was not as arrogant as before he was released. He said with a little bit of disappointment: “It’s in vain that Brother Xu and I did the right thing. The title, is it not as good as those who have not read “Quit Fast”?”

Xu Jing also said: “I underestimated the world’s talents. It turns out that it’s not just us…”

Cui Xie waved his hand and stopped being polite with them: “You are not in the planning test, but in the seven-piece production. Your essays are well-written and well laid out, and every sentence is perfectly in line with the classics. In the examination room, there are good articles that can make the examiner’s eyes shine.”

“So what,” Xu Jing said in surprise: “Did Master Cui realized that my article was not in the middle? Then why have I been forced to do simulations…”

Cui Xie shook his head: “I’m not an examiner, so how do I know if your article can be accepted? I just saw that your article is a little bit wrong, but it can’t be corrected by reading and writing – it was written in your article. It is the meaning of the sages and the talents who associate with you, but lacks your own meaning.

Xu Jing was stunned, and Tang Yin couldn’t help listening.

Cui Xie bluntly said: “Your family was born with a huge wealth and a large collection of books. You only read books and make talented people on weekdays. You have never really seen the suffering of the people’s livelihood and the defects of the state. So most of the written text is seen from elsewhere, in the article. There is a lack of “qi” from the heart. Wen Wuqi is like a boneless man, no matter how precise it is to write, and compete with 3,500 talents like you, how can it impress the examiner? ?”

Although Xu Jing felt that his articles were quite a lot, but listening to Cui Xie talk about his experience, he said that he seemed to have known him for half a lifetime, and he was vaguely convinced, so he asked: “Senior meant to raise the aura of my chest? So what should I do? My family is a big family in Wuzhou, the home of Jishan, and I usually cook rice, bridges and roads…”

“Then have you ever personally contacted those poor farmers? Have you traveled thousands of miles to see foreign customs and people’s livelihood?” Cui Xie sighed slightly to him: “Humanity’s reading ten thousand books is worse than traveling ten thousand miles. You are already at home. There are thousands of books in the collection, and you have read much more than others. What you lack is the experience of traveling thousands of miles, the ambition to read for the country and the people.”

Walk around quickly, cultivate the habit of family travel, and don’t delay the success of the famous traveler Xu Xiake.

After dialing the Xu Jing, he sternly said to Tang Bohu: “Lun Wenxu is able to get Zhonghuiyuan among 3,500 people, and he must be a person with excellent literary talents. Bohu needs to work harder if he wants to win the palace exam. Up!”

Ren Wenxu is a celebrity who has filmed the movie “Lun Wenxu Old Points Liu Xiankai”, and he must be the champion in this section. Although Tang Bohu has a talent and name, although he is a Jie Yuan, the 13 chiefs of the two capitals across the country can produce 15 Jie Yuan every three years. Jie Yuan is really not as valuable as Yuan.

Tang Bohu was also shocked by the test results, not so arrogant, and honestly let people walk away.

Cui Xie was stern in the exams, and focused on comforting and encouraging those who failed. He took Xu Jing and his brother to eat a few glasses of wine, persuading them to relax, and come back in three years.

Wang Shouren, the champion, has failed the ranking once, not to mention the two of them.

Cui He wanted to open it, so he decided to go to the Guozijian to sit in prison with his second brother; Xu Jing also wanted to open it. Anyway, he didn’t pass the exam, and there are still three years to surf. He decided not to take the waterway when he returned home. Experience the customs along the way.

After all, those who fail the rankings are much more secure, and they are unwilling to go out and show their eyes on the initiative. Those who are not safe enough are also forced to take the test at home day by day, adding up the amount of study heavier than during the test, and they are full of ideas about how to make the country strong. Until the 15th of March, Cui Xie sent his family to send Tang Yin back for the exam. I heard that he was calm among the candidates. He didnt say anything like “The champion must be my Tang Bohu.” The matter turned over.

It doesn’t matter how arrogant Tang Bohu is, Lun Wenxu will teach him how to be a man.

However, he only paid more attention to Tang and Xu before and after the two trials. He stared at them after he entered Beijing. It was Xie Ying who prevented them from committing suicide.

Cui Xie took the wine to thank him in the middle of the night, and finally uttered the truth that could not be told in front of others: “Finally, we have fooled Tang Bohu, a major imprisonment fraud case. These days are all due to Brother Xie’s meticulous arrangement. When they entered Beijing, they would keep these two people at home. Otherwise, as long as they saw Bachelor Cheng and gave some small gifts, it would be unclear.”

Xie Ying drank a sip of the wine he had nurtured, and ironed it comfortably from her throat to her heart, and said with a smile: “This is just my profession, what’s the problem. The literati’s family is not guarded at all, so they can just put it in. Personally, it’s easy to toss them out of the door with some minor problems.”

Cui Xie smiled and said: “I don’t care whether it is difficult or not. I only thank you for being so careful about what I have entrusted. In fact, I have thought about it myself. Before the exam, I would give these two people some medicine to prevent them from entering the venue. Its over a hundred, who knows how hard you are. Alas, I dont know who killed Bachelor Cheng, otherwise we can just follow the murderer.”

Xie Ying replied casually: “Left are just the officials from the Ministry of Rites and the Department of Officials. Most of them are from the Ministry of Rites. Scholar Cheng is afraid that he might be in the cabinet and hinder others’ way.”

Mr. Xu Ge has been in office in Hongzhi for eleven years, and now there are only three people in the cabinet, Liu, Li, and Xie. Cheng Minzheng is a bachelor of the Hanlin, and he is also the Chief Minister of Zhan Shifu and You Shi Lang of the Ministry of Li.

He is only 54 years old this year. Xie Qian and Li Dongyang are even younger than him. Although the first assistant Liu Jian is a bit older, he is only in his sixties. He is in excellent health. It doesnt matter if he works for another eight or nine years. Ken Zhishi. If he enters the cabinet and fills up the quota of four people, will the people behind still survive the day of joining the cabinet?

Cui Xie thought for a while, shook his head and sighed, “It’s just to enter the cabinet to make such an unjust case… Wang Shu, Ma Wensheng, and Liu Daxia also didn’t join the cabinet. They didn’t continue to work hard and loyal to the country.”

Xie Ying only felt that his thoughts were clean and cute. She hugged him and kissed him lovingly and said: “Even the people know that’to be an official for a thousand miles is only for money’, how many of us Xie brothers in the world carry the country like this People of the people.”

That is, we have been the successors of communism since we were young.

Cui Xie made him feel a little itchy to kiss him, she shrank her chest and hid, and sighed with a smile: “Although it is not written in the history book who it is, I guess the patrons know a little bit in their hearts. The three bachelors Liu, Li, and Xie have been presiding over the court affairs. Tsk, they are all in the history of Jinyiwei. If we examine the sun day by day and night night Xie Zhenfu…”

Xie Ying almost made him laugh to death. She lay down on his waist and waited for a long time before saying: “Just examine the sun on the sun, what do you do with the yin at night? I can’t interrogate Cui Hanlin at night if I love me or not. Who has the time to examine those ghosts? .”
