Back to Ming Dynasty as Zhu Biao

Chapter 218 Old Director Zhu's Good Show ([-])

"Your Majesty, please make the decision for us!"

The cry of the scholars from the north and the south was absolutely deafening. Lao Zhu, who had long been standing in front of the Fengtian Hall, looked at the scholars at the foot of the steps quietly.

This time, although Biaoer had told himself that there might be differences between scholars from the north and the south, he still insisted on continuing the matter.

……

……

Zhongshu Sheng, side hall.

"Xiangguo, this time all the candidates from Anhui and Zhejiang were successful, so Yang Xian must attract talents for himself." Hu Weiyong said worriedly.

"Weiyong, you have to be calm, if you want Yang Xian to perish, we will kill him and let him die completely, then he will definitely implicate Liu Bowen.

When your majesty has no one available, are you still afraid that someone will fight with you?Wait, aim at the Zhedong Party, and let His Majesty take a hit. If we make a move, His Majesty will be angered. "

"Xiangguo, I can't wait to trample Yang Xian into a puddle of mud and let him die on the ground." Hu Weiyong thought of these days, Yang Xian always steals his limelight.

"You can't bear your temper." Li Shanchang flipped through the book and said.

"Xiangguo, don't be in a hurry. Look at Yang Xian flattering His Majesty and Liu Manzi flattering the prince. They are about to rise to the top. How could they make any mistakes?"

Li Shanchang said: "Then give him a trap and let him get into it. Remember to dredge the canal? Originally, I wanted someone to mess with ICBC's account book, but I didn't expect the situation to change. But it's not at this time, don't worry, it will always let him The one that kills with one blow should belong to you or me.”

At this moment, Song Lian walked in, looked at Li Shanchang and said, "Li Xiangguo, His Majesty got angry in Fengtian Hall because of the examinee's matter, and called...call you and me to the palace to face the saint, what should we do."

Seeing Song Lian trembling, Li Shanchang stepped forward and said, "Mr. Song, don't worry, just follow me into the palace to meet the Holy Spirit. I see this in black and white. How can His Majesty accuse you and me of cheating for personal gain?"

There are many southern scholars, which is a good thing for Li Shanchang, and this time, the southern scholars answered the questions better.

It is inevitable that the south of the Yangtze River has a strong cultural spirit, and the northern generals have a strong spirit. It is inevitable that there are many scholars in the south.

No matter who is going to mark the papers, it is still the same.

Song Lian did not go to Fengtian Hall first, but followed Li Shanchang's wishes and went to Empress Ma first.

Empress Ma was giving a gift to girls from the Xu family and the Chang family, when she saw Song Lian rushing in, she was surprised and said, "Song Lian, what's wrong with you?"

"Empress, this time... all the scholars on the list are from the south. The emperor is angry in Fengtian Hall. As the chief examiner of Enke, it will be difficult for me to escape.

The minister is old, and he doesn't want to be paraded through the streets because of this incident. "

"Song Lian, if you didn't practice favoritism, His Majesty wouldn't blame you. The north has just recovered, and the culture is low, which is inevitable." Empress Ma said.

The palace was quiet, and Song Lian was trembling with anxiety.

"Song Lian, don't be afraid of this matter, the crown prince is also in Fengtian Hall, he won't sit idly by." Empress Ma looked at them and said, "You guys are talking about it."

Xu Miaowei said: "The Enke exam is the most important thing, if His Royal Highness pleads for Mr. Song, His Majesty will be even more angry.

The person who tied the bell needs to be untied. Why didn't Mr. Song explain the reason frankly, and tell His Majesty about his mistake in time. Your Majesty is a good and reasonable king, so naturally he would not make things difficult for Mr. Song. "

Xu Miaoyun nodded, and Chang Meirong, who was next to her, nodded approvingly when she heard what Xu Miaowei said: "Mr. Song, don't worry, it's better to go to Fengtian Temple right now."

"That's right, if I stay here with my empress, I'm afraid things will get worse, and my empress can't go to Fengtian Palace to get involved in politics, or your majesty will be even more angry." Xu Miaoyun continued.

Song Lian sighed, nodded and went to Fengtian Hall.

"Prime Minister Li, as the director of Enke this time, is this how we did the first Enke?"

With heavy steps, Lao Zhu sprinkled the memorial about the Enke in his hand on Li Shanchang and Song Lian's heads.

"Look, apart from Anhui and Zhejiang, there is no one in the north. This is to make the Ming court only have the south, only half of it? Then why did we work so hard to regain the north? Who is playing favoritism and cheating under our noses."

"I dare not practice favoritism. I will never practice favoritism." Li Shanchang's words were clear, but Song Lian was trembling.

Lao Zhu glanced at Li Shanchang, no matter whether Enke cheated this time, if all the imperial court became southern scholars, the world would be over.

The result this time was exactly as what Biao'er told him before, but he also wanted to take advantage of this time to suppress Li Shanchang, and then arrange for scholars from the north and the south.

Thinking of this, Lao Zhu looked at Song Lian and said, "Song Lian, have you committed any malpractice for personal gain?"

"Your Majesty, I... Absolutely not." Song Lian knelt down and kowtowed.

"Yang Xian, what happened to those students?" Old Zhu looked at him.

"Your Majesty, those students from the north and the south are arguing very much together. They are talking a lot in the inn. There must be an arbitrariness on this matter."

Yang Xian colluded with Lao Zhu a long time ago, just to give Lao Zhu a step.

"Arbitration, okay, let's give them a verdict. Let all the officials re-examine the papers." Lao Zhu waved his hand and said: "Listen to us, both the north and the south are subjects of Ming Dynasty, whoever dares to split us The matter of Daming will never be forgiven. Li Shanchang, can you remember it?"

"I've made a note." Li Shanchang knelt on the ground and nodded.

After a few sticks of incense, there was no difference in all the test papers.

Old Zhu said: "Although there is no difference in the test papers, we have learned a lesson this time. How to appease the anger of scholars from the north and the south, we all have to find a way. Tell me, Biaoer."

Standing by the side, Zhu Biao naturally knew that Lao Zhu this time was using an excuse to control these party members and win over talents.

"Since the examination papers for scholars in the south are all high-quality examination papers, the imperial court must cherish talents and keep them in positions. Only in this way can it reflect the father's promise.

There have been years of war in the north, and it is understandable to fail the rankings. However, the father is kind and sympathetic to the north. He can take the Enke North Course. This year, a separate test field is set up for northern students.

In this way, the northern students will naturally lose their anger and feel grateful for the grace.There are academicians from both the north and the south of the National Academy of Scholars, and they are selected and appointed. Why not set up a northern examination room? It all depends on what the father said. "

"Haha, it all depends on our words." Old Zhu liked this sentence.It was then stipulated that the northern test field would be held one month later.

However, Lao Zhu also stipulated to the death that in the future imperial examinations, students from the north and the south must be balanced, and no one side can be tilted.

For the first time in history, all officials have no opinion, and they agree very much.

Although he went full circle for this matter, Lao Zhu also took advantage of this to beat Li Shanchang invisibly.

Li Shanchang's face was heavy, and then he wanted to drink tea with Liu Bowen, but Liu Bowen cleverly pushed him away. Who would dare to drink tea with him at this juncture.

Lao Zhu was happy, and let Zhu Biao take a good rest. These days, he is also busy for the National Academy of Scholars.

The Ministry of Industry and Rites, as well as the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Officials, under Zhu Biao's efforts, all won important positions for other science and technology officials.

The hundred officials have no objection, because the literary talents of those who entered the sixth department are not inferior to those of the civil officials.

The rest were He Qing and the others, who were arranged by Zhu Biao to assist Liu Bowen in managing the Academy of Scholars, and the matter of the Ming Weekly was moved to the Academy of Scholars by Gao Qi leading people to fully control public opinion.

The Daming Weekly reported on the Enke North Camp overnight, and the northern students were very excited, and many who left were also chased back by Yang Xian and the others.

"His Royal Highness, more than 500 students from the north have prepared for the exam with peace of mind." Yang Xian said.

"Yang Xian, you are talented, but you can only see it in your own eyes, but you must learn a lot like Liu Zhongcheng before you can be reused. A man should focus on the long-term and serve the people. Not some places, remember?"

Yang Xian raised his head and glanced at Zhu Biao, then nodded and said: "I have made a note."

Then Zhu Biao pointed to Song Lian: "Let Master Song tutor those students."

Song Lian said Zhan Weiwei: "Your Highness, I will not disgrace my mission."

Zhu Biao glanced at Song Lian, took him to the side and said, "Mr. Song, you are Gu's teacher. From now on, you will stay at the National Academy of Scholars with peace of mind. You will only teach some academicians to read and write. The courtyard is clean, and Gu also hopes that you will be able to read and write in the future." May I return home with honor.”

Song Lian was frightened a long time ago, nodded to Zhu Biao and said: "I have lived a long time, and I just want to make a small effort for the court."

"En." Zhu Biao patted Song Lian on the shoulder heavily, and then left.

The northern students will continue to stay until April, and the accommodation and meals need to be resolved. He has to talk to her about it.
