Chapter 796 Seniors Are Always Seniors

In the afternoon, after the official banquet of the Hanlin Academy, with Qin Zhongtang's status, of course he sat at the head of the main hall.

Next to Qin Zhongtang is Wen Renhe, Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Officials and a scholar of the Hanlin Academy. After drinking for three rounds, Bachelor Wen couldn't help but said through his drink: "In your opinion, who will be selected as the chief examiner of this exam? "

Of course, Qin Dewei could hear the meaning of these words. Instead of asking Wen Xueshi about the candidate for the chief examiner, he might as well ask him whether Wen Renhe might be selected as the chief examiner.

There is even a further meaning, that is, can you, Qin Zhongtang, help?
The chief examiners of today's general examinations are generally from the Hanlin University. In terms of qualifications and status, Wen Renhe is more than enough to be the chief examiner.

Moreover, although Xueshi Wen was sometimes impatient, on the whole, getting along with Qin Dewei was not unpleasant.For example, based on Qin Dewei's absence rate when he was in the Imperial Academy, he was never "incompetent" in the assessment.

Qin Dewei thought for a while, and still said to Wen Renhe: "It's not that I don't want to help, listen to my persuasion, Senior Wen should not think about participating in this trial, so as not to cause accidents."

Wen Xueshi said in surprise: "It's a disaster? Why did it come to this?"

It's just an imperial examination, it's like going to battle to kill the enemy.

Qin Dewei said vaguely: "Zhai Shoufu's two sons both won the Juren this year, and they will both participate in the examination next year. It can be said that they are bound to win.

Senior Wen, if you become the chief examiner, will you win or not?Even I don't want to take part in this exam, so let's forget it, Senior Wen. If you want to be the main exam, you can wait three years later. "

It is impossible for Qin Dewei to say clearly that Yan Song must have arranged a conspiracy in order to bring down Zhai Luan, at most he can only talk about the above.

Wen Renhe only asked back: "Are you sure you don't want to interfere?"

Qin Zhongtang didn't lie, and he definitely wouldn't interfere in this test.The first reason is that Yan Song must have arranged for Zhai Luan in order to be the chief assistant.

Although I don't want to see Yan Song, but I don't want to make trouble for Yan Song for Zhai Luan, and it doesn't do me any good.

The second reason is to focus on the future.This time "give way", the next time or the next exam can justifiably grab resources.

The golden generation of the imperial examination represented by Zhang Juzheng is about to take the exam. These are the goals of Qin Zhongtang, but he still has to wait for one or two subjects.

If Jiajing 20 years is too active in grabbing resources, what if the Emperor Jiajing wants to strike a balance and limit himself when the tide of talents appears in the future?
With Qin Dewei's status, if he wants to compete, he must compete for the chief examiner. If he wins this time, he will not use himself next time!There is no reason to be the examiner several times!
But these reasons are also hard to say, so Qin Zhongtang can only say to Wen Xueshi: "I will definitely not interfere in this exam. Recently, the limelight is too strong, it is better to keep a low profile for the time being."

Scholar Wen scoffed at the statement that Qin Dewei wanted to "keep a low profile". Ever since you entered the Hanlin Academy, you, Qin Dewei, have been talking about keeping a low profile, but when have you ever been so low-key?

But Wen Renhe guessed that Qin Dewei would not intentionally deceive others, so he said: "Since you don't want to interfere in the examination, there must be complicated inside information, so I don't want to be the chief examiner anymore!"

Qin Zhongtang secretly sighed, among the people around him, it seems that more and more people are too lazy to think, they will only watch what Qin Dewei does, and follow him step by step, regard Qin Dewei as a weathervane, and blindly follow without thinking .

The reason why many leaders in history are wise in the early stage and faint in the late stage is because they have been intoxicated in this feeling for a long time, which led to the loss of correct judgment ability in the later stage!
At this time, the annual interactive program came, and the eunuch Feng Bao came to the Hanlin Academy banquet with the title of Emperor Jiajing.

This is the biggest purpose of many ministers participating in the Hanlin public banquet, and it is for this program of interacting with the emperor.

The title is a painting called "A Picture of Alone Fishing on the Autumn River". The emperor ordered the ministers to write poems for the painting and submit it.

Faced with this rare performance opportunity, people who are interested in being examiners stepped forward one after another, and began to conceive after appreciating the content in the painting.

For the main examiner and the co-examiners of each room, at least seven or eight people must be selected from the Hanlin Ci officials. For everyone, this probability is not low.

This time he left a deep impression on the emperor, and he might be appointed as an examiner by the emperor.

Wen Renhe observed Qin Dewei secretly, but saw that Qin Zhongtang was as immobile as a mountain, he had no interest in the topic at all, and had no intention of writing.

Then he asked again: "Why are you not very active?"

Qin Dewei glanced at the people who answered the question, and mocked lightly: "I'm afraid all your efforts will be in vain."

As long as he, Qin Dewei, doesn't make trouble, this test will be based on Yan Song's layout, which may have been finalized by Yan Song, and it is useless for people who don't know the truth to be active here.

Seeing Qin Dewei's lack of enthusiasm, and hearing Qin Dewei's words, Wen Xueshi can completely conclude that Qin Dewei really has no intention of intervening in the trial.

Just when Qin Dewei, who had no intention of showing off, was chatting with Wen Renhe without saying a word, someone came to Qin Dewei and asked, "Why didn't senior Qin show his talents so that we and the younger generation can learn from them?"

Qin Dewei looked at it in a blink of an eye, and it turned out to be Yuan Wei, who had been in Jiajing for 17 years. Historically, he was one of the four prime ministers of Qingci in the late Jiajing Dynasty, and he could be regarded as a flattering genius.

The original author of the ritual couplet "Luoshui Xuangui Chuxian Xianrui" that Qin Zhongtang plagiarized five years ago was Yuan Wei in history.

Today, Yuan Wei is also one of the core figures of the Enshrining School of the Imperial Academy, and Qin Zhongtang is the new generation leader after Qin Zhongtang faded out of the Imperial Academy.

Being able to be called into the Zhiwuyi Palace from time to time to write green poems for the emperor, Zhao Zhenji, Xu Gu, Xing Yifeng and other younger brothers of the Qin family were overwhelmed by the limelight.

Xueshi Wen yelled first: "Yuan Yuanfeng mustn't be rude!"

Qin Zhongtang only felt it was amused, Yuan Wei didn't say anything yet, but what does it mean that you Scholar Wen yelled "Don't be rude" first?
Is this because Qin Dewei was considered "disrespectful" first?To be honest, it's a bit like low-end sowing dissension.

While thinking about it, Qin Dewei said to Yuan Wei: "If I make a move, nothing will happen to you."

Yuan Wei was a little unconvinced, so he said, "Senior Qin still refuses to have fun with the younger generation?"

Qin Dewei waved his hand benevolently, "It's just yesterday that I was young and frivolous, just make yourself happy!"

Yuan Wei really wanted to compete with Qin Zhongtang to see whose writing was more appreciated by Emperor Jiajing.

But Qin Zhongtang did not want to fight, and Yuan Wei couldn't force Qin Zhongtang to compete because of his junior status.

After Yuan Wei walked away, Qin Dewei asked Wen Xueshi again: "What? Has this junior person offended you?"

Bachelor Wen sighed: "This person is too crazy, much more annoying than you!"

Qin Dewei was very surprised and said: "I haven't made you get used to it? Can he still compare to me? Could it be that there are talented people from generation to generation?"

Wen Renhe replied: "At least you won't criticize and revise the articles of your predecessors, but Yuan Wei dares to do so!"

Qin Dewei couldn't help but laugh, no wonder this Wen Renhe hated Yuan Wei so much, it must have been corrected by Yuan Wei.

But Qin Dewei said he would not participate, so he really did not participate.After the eunuch Feng Bao collected dozens of poems, he got up and went back to the palace to report to the emperor.

The next step is to wait for the emperor's reply, and everyone gathers in twos and threes, replaying poems with each other.

But after a while, someone praised loudly: "The one who won the first place this time must be Yuan Yuanxi."

Although Yuan Wei spoke humility again and again, he couldn't hide the pride on his face.

When it comes to poetry, he may not be the best, but when it comes to combining flattery with poetry, Yuan Wei is definitely one of the best.

It's a pity that Qin Zhongtang avoided the battle today, otherwise he really wanted to compare himself with Qin Zhongtang.If he can win the undefeated Qin Zhongtang once, his status in the world will rise to several levels.

After an hour, the eunuch Feng Bao reappeared in the Hanlin Academy, and all the people attending the public banquet suddenly fell silent.

Everyone knows that Feng Bao must have come with the emperor's evaluation, and personal honor and disgrace depend on this experience.

Feng Bao first searched for a group of people in the arena, and then said loudly: "The emperor has a question: why didn't Qin Dewei present? Present Qin Dewei's poem!"

The people who were full of expectations were speechless and resentful. After waiting for a long time, they just waited for this sentence?
So many people have written poems and contributed them, but Qin Dewei was only taking advantage of his laziness, so the emperor paid special attention to it?

Then Qin Dewei doesn't want to be in the limelight, and this year's public banquet will not participate in interactive games, so the emperor insists on asking Qin Dewei to write a poem just to read?

Then I racked my brains to write poems and lyrics just now, just to praise Bo Junwang, what is the significance?

Wen Ren and Wen Xueshi looked at Qin Dewei in astonishment, could it be that Qin Dewei was planning all this?Did you say you don't want to show off?Is it just a new trick?

Qin Dewei sighed, the Emperor Jiajing really had no sense of boundaries, even if he wanted to be lazy during the Chinese New Year.

The painting is a picture of fishing alone on the Autumn River. After Qin Dewei glanced at it for a while, he began to write beside it. The poem said:
"One coir, one hat, one flat boat, one foot of silk and one inch hook. One song and one bottle of wine, one person fishing alone one river autumn."

Everyone couldn't help admiring this poem. I don't want to talk about the quality of this poem, but the technique must be novel, refreshing and impressive. It is worthy of the handwriting of a poet.

Eunuch Feng Bao took Qin Dewei's new poem and hurried back to the palace.

The public banquet continued, and everyone continued to eat and drink, but they were already a little absent-minded.

After an unknown amount of time, the eunuch Feng Bao appeared in the Imperial Academy again.

But I heard Feng Bao still only said to Qin Dewei: "The emperor has something to say, Qin Dewei, don't worry, rewrite it!"

Everyone: "."

This is an interactive game between the emperor and the Imperial Academy, not an interactive game with Qin Dewei!Emperor, you only care about Qin Dewei like this, where do you put others?

Others might almost cry with envy, but Qin Zhongtang himself suffered from a toothache.

Is it because I flattered horses too hard in the past, so that the standard cannot be lowered?
If you take it a little less seriously, the emperor will be dissatisfied?Doesn't that mean that in the future, we must maintain a high level and not be lazy?
In that case, it would be too tiring!Scientifically speaking, it is impossible for anyone to maintain a high level all the time!

It’s no wonder that in history, whether it’s Xia Yan or Yan Song, their early writings were well received by the emperor; but as time goes by, their writings are less satisfied with the emperor, and they are always reprimanded by the emperor as perfunctory, becoming the straw that crushes the camel’s camel. one.

It's not that Xia Yan and Yan Song don't have talents, but no matter how talented they are, they can't always have an inexhaustible supply, and the Emperor Piansheng has always refused to lower their requirements.

Yan Song found his son Dangdaibi, and he lingered for a few years, but Xia Yan didn't have a suitable candidate for the shooter, and he was defeated very quickly.

Thinking of this, Qin Zhongtang shook his head vigorously, not thinking about the long-term future, and dealt with the immediate difficulties first.

Under the crowd watching, Qin Dewei continued to write a poem called Qilu:
"A tall pole with a hundred feet leaning against the clouds, a lone fairy tree and a bullfight. The stars are used as jade bait, and the crescent moon is hung in the sky as a silver hook.

Unplug the three thousand circles of smoke, catch the universe and tens of thousands of autumns.Returning to the Jade Emperor, there should be a question. The silk fiber has already belonged to Daming. "

Everyone gasped after reading the whole poem!I just want to say one thing in my heart, Qin Zhongtang, you should accept the supernatural powers!

If you take out such a thing, can the emperor still look at other people's things?
Qin Dewei put down his pen, looked around, and waved to Yuan Wei, "What does Yuan Yuanxi think of this song?

I heard that you like to revise the poems and articles of your predecessors the most, so let's take a look, how do you revise this poem? "

Qin Dewei's words just now echoed in Yuan Wei's mind - if I make a move, nothing will happen to you.

Now that Qin Zhongtang had hit the mark, he really had nothing to do with himself.If he was worse than Senior Qin even in flattering, then what else would he have?
Feng Bao put away Qin Dewei's newly written Qilu poem, and left in a hurry again.

At this point, everyone already felt that public banquets are boring, and the flowers are similar every year, and so are the people every year!
The traditional program of the Hanlin Academy's public banquet every year is not only the interaction between the monarch and his ministers, but also Qin Dewei's limelight!
I thought that after Qin Dewei resigned as a Bachelor of the Imperial Academy this year, he would play an away game at the Imperial Academy, and he would deliberately keep a low profile. This is the chance for others to show off!
But it was still early, and everyone was embarrassed to leave immediately, so they could only endure.

When Feng Bao appeared in the Imperial Academy again, no one even thought about going to welcome him.

Anyway, it is estimated that they are looking for Qin Dewei, so what does it have to do with them?
Sure enough, Feng Bao said to Qin Zhongtang: "The emperor wrote a few choruses in hand, bestowed on Qin Dewei, and ordered Qin Dewei to recite them in public!"

After saluting, Qin Dewei took the royal letter from Feng Bao, and read: "In ancient times, the king of the Ming Dynasty diligently studied the sages, and he must have the sages as his shares. The monarch and his ministers are all virtuous, and the general government is only as good as Hong Yecheng.

Every time he seeks governance from ancient precepts, he sings and grinds Tao's temperament.Poems come to my mind or are not satisfied, the servants of the middle school preached Ziqing.

The one I look forward to is Duqing, and the temple talks about Taoism.Wo Xin helped the bandits in the period of virtue, and did not let the former sages make their names. "

In terms of level, this poem is really not very good.But the emperor's poems never depend on the level, but on the content!

And the emperor asked Qin Dewei to read these in public, isn't it a kind of sacred expression?

After listening to the emperor's poems bestowed by the emperor, everyone, especially those younger generations who were not familiar with Qin Dewei, deeply understood what it means to be a "Jiajing man".

Seniors will always be your seniors!
Qin Dewei sighed, Emperor Jiajing really had nothing to say to him, what would he do if he wanted himself to be the chief examiner?
