Tang Dynasty good doctor

Chapter 219 Everyone Knows Who Wang Ping'an Is

Ma Mingmei snorted, not understanding what her mother meant, and asked, "Can Daddy grade the test paper?"

Mrs. Ma shook her head and said: "It is the responsibility of the chief examiners to grade the test papers. Only the eldest grandson and Master Chu have this right. Even if your father is promoted, he is only a doctor. How can he give it to the examinees?" Papers are graded."

Ma Mingmei was even more puzzled, and asked: "But Dad used to pick up wrong characters, and he still had some power, but now he just handed in the test papers and sorted them out. "

Mrs. Ma said with a smile: "I don't understand the matter of men, but I heard that whoever puts the test paper on the top has a greater chance of winning. What is the reason for this? We women don't know, anyway. It's a good thing!"

In fact, there is a lot to say about whether the paper is placed on the top or on the bottom when it is sent for review.

To use an analogy, if a leader does something, when he speaks, there are a lot of things in front of him, which are often not important. The subordinates only need to listen and nod continuously, and the most important words are often said by the leader at the end. .When the subordinates speak to the leader, it is just the opposite. The key points should be said first, so that after the leader has heard the key points, if the subordinates don’t want to listen anymore, they can wave their hands and tell the subordinates to leave, so that the matter will not be delayed.

In modern times, the most obvious place where this happens is during the interview. The interviewer is often at the beginning of the interview, because there is no comparison object, so he will be a little more relaxed, and the acceptance rate is also higher. There are more people who are watching, and there are more and more objects for comparison, and the requirements are often higher and higher. Even later, when you see that you don’t have enough time, or you have other things to do, you will be more likely to be interviewed later. swept away.Sometimes, before the people behind wait for the interview, the people in front have already filled up the quota, and they just go in to be a foil and go through the motions.Except in special cases, this kind of thing happens a lot!

It's the same in ancient and modern times. If the examinee's papers are placed at the front during the scientific examination, the examiner will often not be too difficult. The specification is slightly looser, so the chance of being admitted will be higher, and the later the approval, the more strict the rules. Strictly speaking, the chances of admission will be relatively smaller!In any case, there is no standard answer for scientific examinations in this era, so the examiner's preferences and mood account for a large proportion!

Although this kind of opportunity does not appear in every scientific examination, no one can guarantee that it will not appear. As long as there is an opportunity, you cannot give up. It is a good thing to pass the examination earlier, and no one wants to wait for a few more years !
Mrs. Ma didn't understand, and Ma Mingmei didn't understand even more. Without asking any more questions, she talked to her mother a few more times and went to her father's study!
Mrs. Ma saw that her daughter was behaving abnormally. She was not very happy about such a big happy event in the family. It seemed that she had something on her mind!The coachman was sent to ask the lady where she went. After hearing the reply that she went to Ganye Temple, Mrs. Ma was very puzzled. Her daughter must have met someone or something different from usual, so she was so worried. Who or what?
She is busy now, so she didn't have time to ask her daughter, so she had to give it up for the time being and entertain the guests first!
Ma Mingmei came to her father's study and saw her younger brother Ma Gaomei sitting in the study, shaking her head and reading, she said: "Brother, why don't you go out and greet guests with mother, father is not at home, you are a man at home, go out and see him That's good too!"

Ma Gaomei was only thirteen or fourteen years old, just the age to be mischievous. Hearing his sister's questioning, he said, "I really want to go, but my mother won't let me, saying that I'm afraid I'll delay my homework. Sister, how about you tell your mother about it?" Let me go out and play!"

Ma Mingmei said: "I'm not going to talk about it, if you want to talk about it, you can tell it yourself!" Going to the bookshelf, I went to look through my father's letters. In this day and age, there is no such thing as private letters. Everyone in my family can read my own letters. !
From a pile of letters, he quickly found the letter from the host of the White Horse Temple, opened the letter, and looked at the date first, it was indeed not long ago.Looking at the text again, after just a few glances, she saw what she wanted. The word "Nianyou" was clearly on the paper, and after "Nianyou", the word "Wang Ping'an" was immediately followed!
White Horse Temple accepted an outstanding disciple from a layman, this is a big event, Nianku and Ma Qianli are good friends, they exchanged frequent letters, often discussing scriptures and allusions in the letters, when encountering such a big event as accepting a disciple from a layman, why not mention it in the letter? Arrived!
In the letter, Nianku praised Wang Pingan wildly. Why Wang Pingan has a rare Buddha relationship in a hundred years, and he is also called "Little Guanyin". His medical skills are so superb that even Luoyang stay-at-home people think highly of him, and Wang Pingan is a man. How good it is, I explained it in detail.If you just read this letter, you can even imagine Wang Ping'an as a demigod, not an ordinary person!
Ma Mingmei smiled at the corner of her mouth, it turned out that her savior was such a famous person, and was deeply loved by the people!The more I looked at it, the happier I was, and I couldn't help but whispered to myself: "Wang Ping'an, so his name is Wang Ping'an!"

Her younger brother Ma Gaomei pretended to read a book, but listened to her sister with his ears open, wondering what happened to her, why did she seem to have lost her soul?
Ma Mingmei finished the letter, put it back on the bookshelf, sighed, left the study in a daze, and went back to her embroidery building!Seeing her leaving, Ma Gaomei immediately ran to the bookshelf, flipped through the pile of letters, and found the letters that he had studied hard, and he actually read them too!

After a while, Mrs. Ma was worried about her daughter after all, and she heard the servant said that the young lady had gone to the study, so she put down the guests and came here when she had time, but she didn't see Ma Mingmei.She asked Ma Gaomei: "Son, your elder sister's expression is not right today, did she tell you anything when she came here just now?"

Ma Gaomei proudly said: "Mother, if you want to ask other questions, I don't know. If you want to ask sister why her expression is wrong, I just know what I can't do anymore!"

"What do you know, tell mother quickly!" Mrs. Ma asked.

But Ma Gaomei said: "Mother, you have to promise me first to let me go out to play, otherwise I won't tell you, and I can guarantee that even if you ask sister, she won't tell, because what she thinks is a The man... which man is it? Well, I forgot!" Even though he is young, he is a master negotiator, and he can still play tricks,
Speaking of other things, the mother may not be in a hurry, but when she hears that her daughter wants a man, can the mother not be in a hurry!Mrs. Ma anxiously said: "Man, what man? Alright, as long as you tell mother which man it is, mother will let you go out to play!"

Ma Gaomei's goal was achieved, and then he took out the letter from the bookshelf and read it to Mrs. Ma.After reading halfway, he said: "The man my sister is thinking of is Wang Ping'an, I heard her say 'so his name is Wang Ping'an', and she kept laughing as she said it, isn't she thinking of a man, maybe she is still thinking of a woman? "

Mrs. Ma was shocked, and said: "This Wang Ping'an is actually a junior brother who reads hard, so he also became your father's...same generation, this generation is so big, you should read on quickly!"

Seeing that his mother was interested, Ma Gaomei was even more proud, so he read the letter from beginning to end!
After Madam Ma heard this, she turned from surprise to joy, and said: "I figured it out, your sister went to Ganye Temple today, and she must have met Wang Ping'an who was going to pay a visit to the presiding officer in the temple. It's normal to pay a visit to the host, but your sister saw it!"

Ma Gaomei said, "It says in the letter that Wang Ping'an is here to rush for the exam. He doesn't study hard like me, but what is he going to the nunnery for?"

"What do children know!" Mrs. Ma poked his forehead, but she was really happy in her heart. It is normal for her daughter to think more about things when she is old. At her age, she is already married.Whether this Wang Ping'an is as good as written in the letter, I have to ask the master.This person is an examinee entering Beijing, but the master has just been promoted to be a doctor in the Ministry of Rites. This is really... one good thing after another!

Princess Gao Yang went back to the consort's mansion, only to find that Fang Yiai had already returned.Fang Yiai welcomed her into the flower hall, and said with a smile: "Princess, don't you like meeting scholars..."

Princess Gao Yang stared, and said angrily: "You can't trust me again, why are you saying these bland words and trying to force me to go to Ganye Temple? Be careful if I go again, I really won't come back! "

"No, no, how can I force you, the princess has misunderstood!" Fang Yiai said: "Those scholars come to the door to invest in bank tickets, one by one, it takes up too much of the princess's time and disturbs the princess's rest, it is better to see them all at once. Wouldn't it be great?"

As he spoke, he took out the invitation card and handed it to Princess Gao Yang.Princess Gao Yang opened it, frowned, and said: "Wang Ping'an, this person is so familiar! Ah, I remembered, isn't he the doctor who offered the Ascension Immortal Technique, isn't he?"

Fang Yiai smiled and said: "It's not him, he competed with the people from the imperial medical office, and he won a big victory, so the scholars want to hold a poetry meeting to praise this matter, it is written on this invitation card , the cause and effect are clear at a glance!"

Princess Gao Yang snorted and said, "Aren't they afraid of offending the Imperial Medical Office?"

Fang Yiai said: "According to the logic, there should be some scruples, but this Wang Ping'an was recruited by His Highness the Crown Prince, to praise Wang Ping'an is actually to praise His Highness the Crown Prince, who would dare to say no to those imperial doctors? It is estimated that when the poetry and essay meeting is held, they will go to support it and flatter Wang Ping'an!"

Princess Gao Yang was taken aback, and said: "How could this be? They should be jealous!"

"Princess doesn't know anything about the officialdom!" Fang Yiai smiled and said, "The current highest official of the Imperial Medical Office is the Imperial Physician Cheng, and the post of Imperial Physician Order has always been vacant, and the Imperial Medical Officer is the serious officer. Wang Pingan has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince as a backer, and he is highly skilled in medicine, and everyone praises him so much, do you think he will... the princess understands! So, those imperial doctors knew who Wang Pingan was, not only did not dare to hate him, Instead, you have to hold it!"

Only then did Princess Gao Yang understand, and said: "It's okay for officials to have too many fools, and it's unreasonable that there are so many fools who are not officials. This poetry meeting is just to praise that stinky foot of Wang, that's all. I'm not going to see it!"

But Fang Yiai said: "You can't say that, Wang Ping'an really has real skills, otherwise everyone would not praise him. Besides, all the candidates in Beijing this time will go to the poetry meeting, which is so grand. Very well, if you go this time, you will be able to meet all the candidates, and save them from bothering you in the future!"

Princess Gao Yang listened, thought for a while, and said: "All candidates in Beijing must participate, so it's not for candidates, for example...for example, monks, or lay disciples?"

Fang Yiai was taken aback, what do you mean, why did the princess suddenly become interested in these things?
