Invincible Zhengde

Chapter 62 Imperial Examination
This time the imperial examination question case had a great influence on Tang Bohu. He dissected himself in detail in the "Book with Wen Zhengming" to his friend Wen Zhengming. Suddenly, he became a character who was "justified by all evil" and "pointed at and spit on".

This is just as Zhu Yunming said in the epitaph written for Tang Bohu: "There are outstanding talents, but they will be ruined even if they are not loved;

Zhu Houzhao looked at the title book in his hand, sighed softly, and then said to Zhu Youtang: "This is the brochure handed over by Jin Yiwei. Cheng Minzheng once gave a meeting gift, and Tang Yin also used a gold coin to beg Cheng Minzheng for a letter to send Liang Chu, the head of the township examination."

That's the end of this question book, and there is nothing left to write. Zhu Houzhao sighed, and the commander of Jinyiwei, Mou Bin, really knows how to do things.

There is no real evidence for the investigation of the inscription case. This matter was not said by Mou Bin. It was just a foreshadowing in front of him, because the court had investigated this matter before.In fact, the whole thing has been hidden in the fog, making it impossible for people to discern the truth. The whole thing started when two people went to Beijing to rush for the exam.

Tang Bohu belonged to Hongzhi Wuwu Jieyuan, while Xu Jing was a Juren of Hongzhi Yimao No. 40. Xu Jing was one subject earlier than Tang Bohu, and he was regarded as a senior in the words of later generations.

Xu Jing had many contacts with literati in Wujun, and he was the most irreversible with Tang Bohu, and he wanted to be respected by his talent.At the end of Hongzhi's big competition, the two met on the same boat and went to Beijing for a test.Arriving in Beijing, the guest was at the almshouse, "Liu Ruwen's reputation is very good, and the minister invited him to Yanyan Yuxiang. Xu Youtong has several people, and since Liu Ruri galloped in the city, there are already many people who are paying attention to him."

To put it bluntly, Xu Jing is very high-profile, he looks like a rich second generation, he is good at dancing in the capital, making friends with officials, and he is very energetic.

Due to the attention-grabbing actions of Xu and Tang in the capital, the three exams in the general examination were over, and rumors spread all over the city in an instant.

Hua Chang hurriedly impeached Cheng Minzheng, the chief examiner, and Xu Jing and Tang Bohu.Zhu Youtang ordered Cheng Minzheng not to read the questions, and the volumes he recorded were reviewed by Li Dongyang, a bachelor, together with other examiners. It turned out that neither Xu nor Tang were admitted.

To put it bluntly, neither Tang Bohu nor Xu Jing passed the exam, and the front was in vain.

What kind of question is nonsense at all. If you can get the test questions in advance, can you fail the test as Tang Bohu's identity as Xie Yuan in the Nanzhili Township Examination?The key problem is that Jie Yuan just didn't pass the exam, logically speaking, he shouldn't!You must know that Nanzhili was a place where the imperial examinations in Ming Dynasty were very fierce, similar to the province of the college entrance examination in later generations.

This big province is not just competing within the province, it is going to compete with the whole country outside, and a provincial champion like Tang Bohu did not pass the exam, there is probably something wrong with it.

But this matter is not the key point, the key point of this matter is money, Cheng Minzheng received Xu Jing's money, this is for sure, but according to Xu Jing's statement, he is to ask for the epitaph of his grandfather who has passed away for many years.Regardless of whether Cheng Minzheng has selfishness after collecting the money, Xu Jing's purpose is very clear, that is, to get close to Cheng Tao, and to build a relationship with Li Dongyang, to seek the epitaph for his grandfather Xu Yi, who has passed away for many years, and the result is not as he wished, " The proposed text actually matches the test questions"?

Xu Jing also said that when he came to Beijing, Mu Minzheng learned, and he used money to learn, and he talked about the three questions that could be answered.

To put it bluntly, when Xu Jing came to the capital, he admired Cheng Minzheng and asked about it. He took the money to learn from a teacher, and then he talked about where the test questions might come from. Xu Jing and Tang Bohu made a sample essay after returning, but the sample essay leaked out. This matter was known by others, and the test questions were the same as the sample essays written by Xu Jing and Tang Bohu.

Zhu Houzhao went through the whole process of the case up and down. No matter how you look at it, there is something wrong here. You are an official who entered the imperial examination in Beijing. What are you doing at the examiner's house?He gave money back, and Tang Bohu followed suit, and begged Cheng Minzheng for a piece of paper for his teacher.

Seeing his father looking at the book, Zhu Houzhao was not in the mood to continue reading the book, but turned to look at his father.

Zhu Houzhao really wanted to know how his father would deal with this matter. Jin Yiwei's question book was very clear, and there was no answering question.However, Jin Yiwei also gave other inappropriate points later, and the emperor had a reason to deal with it.

To put it bluntly, the emperor can do whatever he wants, Jin Yiwei has found the reasons, and the matter is handled very properly.

In history, it is based on the fact that there is no evidence for the inscription. Xu Jing gave Cheng Minzheng a meeting gift when he came to Beijing to Jinjin. Tang Yin also used a gold coin to beg Cheng Minzheng for a letter and send it to Liang Chu, the head of the township examination. For the petty official.Cheng Minzheng was dismissed from office and returned home, while Hua Chang was punished by demoting him for false accusations.A big prison in the examination room was closed with [-] boards each.

After Cheng Minzheng returned home, he died of gangrene in anger and depression. Tang Yin was ashamed of being an official.

After Xu Jing joined Wucheng, he read behind closed doors and wrote "Ben Gan Ji" to show his aspirations.After Zhu Youtang's death, Xu Jing wholeheartedly looked forward to the new emperor's pardon, hoping to return to the imperial examination career.The following year, under the name of Mu Simaqian's Qi, Lu, Yan, and Zhao Zhuangyou, he went north to the capital to inquire about the news, but because of his frustration in the examination room, his health became worse every day, and he was too tired to travel. When he arrived in Beijing, he fell ill in Yongfu Temple. Ding Maoke died in the capital.

After a long time, Zhu Youtang put down the notebook in his hand, looked at Zhu Houzhao and asked, "What do you think the emperor should do?"

"Of course we need to investigate clearly!" Zhu Houzhao said from the side: "The talent ceremony and the selection of officials for the country must of course be fair, just and open, otherwise how can the hearts of the people in the world be reassured? Investigation, investigation to the end, will not be tolerated. "

Seeing his son's appearance, Zhu Youtang couldn't help but get angry, when did this brat learn these stupid things?
However, what Zhu Houzhao said sounded one thing, that is, after King Ning learned of Tang Bohu's name, he sent someone to recruit Tang Bohu, and then Tang Bohu discovered that King Ning wanted to rebel again, so Tang Bohu pretended to be crazy, and was actually given by King Ning Let it out, this is true.

It can be seen that Tang Bohu is not only excellent in poetry and painting, but also has some talents. First of all, he can sense that King Ning is going to rebel. Maybe King Ning told him, but it is unlikely, otherwise King Ning would not send him away.The second is that he was able to pretend to be crazy to deceive King Ning, which shows that he also has intentions.

　Some people say I'm stupid, but if these plots are not explained clearly, there will be no way to expand later, so I will update a little more, and I will post a chapter later, and post it at night.
