Chapter 2149 The Number One Scholar and the Granted Marriage2

But the test questions have been published. If the courtiers clamor for changes, how will the tributes participating in the palace examination think about it?

No way, this is the only way.

The tributes were stunned for a moment, came to their senses, and began to think about how to solve the problem. However, the more they looked at it, the more they felt that the problem had no solution.

Emperor Jingyuan looked at the tributes in the palace and sneered in his heart. He didn't know how to solve the problem, or he didn't dare to solve it?

Emperor Jingyuan would not tolerate them, and said directly: "Today's palace examination will last for an hour."

The chief **** beside him immediately shouted loudly: "Your Majesty has decreed that today's palace examination will last for one hour!"

An hour!

The tributes were shocked. What good articles could be written at this hour?

80% of the tributes were panicked, but they had no choice but to rack their brains and solve the problem as quickly as possible. However, they were hungry and anxious, very uncomfortable, and their minds were confused and they had no clue at all.

However, there are still some tributes who are very calm, especially Zong Zhengyi, Feng Yu and others, who have already written to break the topic.

Emperor Jingyuan was a little dissatisfied when he saw this. He turned to look at Gu Jinan, and his expression became better after seeing that he also started to write to break the topic.

Another two-quarters of an hour passed, and all the tributes in the palace picked up their pens and began to answer questions. There was nothing they could do, there was only so much time, and if they did not write again, they would not even have the slightest chance.

After a while, Emperor Jingyuan stood up and walked around the hall, watching the tributes answer questions.

The ministers stood still in a corner of the hall, but they were a little anxious. They also wanted to see how the tributes solved the problem?

But Emperor Jingyuan was on guard against them, fearing that they might offend the children of wealthy families and high-ranking officials. In the early morning, he had ordered them not to patrol during the palace examination, so they could only stand and worry now.

An hour is not long, it passes quickly.

Emperor Jingyuan raised his hand, and the chief **** immediately said: "The time is up, stop writing!"

The dragon is so intimidating that no one dares to answer after the time limit, so everyone stops writing.

Gu Dexing was very lucky that he finished writing it just in time... Thanks to An Ge'er, if he hadn't reminded them that there might be many things going wrong in the imperial examination, he told them not to be too surprised by anything they encountered and to avoid everything. Distractions, focus on taking the exam.

They have also discussed matters such as kings, generals, soldiers, and loyalty in the past few days, so although today's test questions shocked him, they did not panic him.

Hua Qianshan also successfully finished writing, but he was anxious and couldn't hold it in any longer. He raised his hand and shouted: "Your Majesty, the students have something to report."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was startled. The imperial guards had already drawn their swords and pointed them at Hua Qianshan, preparing to kill him immediately if he dared to do anything treacherous.

Some adults scolded him: "What do you want to report to me, a small tribute?"

Don't talk nonsense, otherwise your life will be in danger!

Hua Qianshan said: "Sir, please calm down, I really can't bear it anymore."

He then turned to Emperor Jingyuan and said, "Your Majesty, the student is in a hurry. Can you..."

It turned out that it was because of this incident that the adults present breathed a sigh of relief. They thought Hua Qianshan wanted to complain in front of the palace... During the reign of Emperor Jingtai, something like this happened. That time, there was a river of blood, and the ministers were therefore Scared.

Emperor Jingyuan frowned when he heard this and said: "Making loud noises is a breach of etiquette in front of the palace. Aren't you afraid of being beheaded?!"

Hua Qianshan said: "Students know that everything has its own priorities. If you don't solve the urgent matter first and wait until something happens, you will regret it."

He said again: "I beg your Majesty to grant it!"

Emperor Jingyuan didn't want to discuss such matters in the main hall, and he admired Hua Qianshan's boldness, so he agreed. The chief **** immediately arranged for the imperial guards to take the tributes who needed to resolve internal emergencies to clean the house.

Hua Qianshan was the first to go. After solving the problem, he came back feeling relaxed. The tributes who almost suffocated to death were very grateful to him and regarded him as their savior.

The urgent matter was solved, but Emperor Jingyuan still didn't give them food and wanted them to continue to be hungry.

This was intentional on the part of Emperor Jingyuan. If he couldn't bear even one hungry meal, how could he go to the northwest to serve the imperial court in the future?

The tributes did not dare to complain about hunger, and sat on their knees in front of their desks.

The ministers began to read the papers, looked at the articles of various tributes, and selected the more amazing articles.

The test questions in today's palace examination are very difficult. It can almost be said to be an unsolvable problem. Many tributes are panicked, so there are very few amazing articles, just a few. Then pick some that look good, and make up for three. After ten copies, they were presented to Emperor Jingyuan.

Emperor Jingyuan read all the thirty articles submitted, and the first one he read was Gu Jinan's... When he was inspecting the palace, he read some of Gu Jinan's articles. He actually used soldiers to break the topic and said that it is necessary to treat soldiers kindly. Afraid of the great power of the general.

Now looking at Gu Jinans complete policy review, I still feel it is very good.

Upon seeing this, Mr. Ying Ge asked, "Your Majesty chose Gu Jin'an? This boy is really talented, can do practical things, and is calm and composed. He deserves to be named the number one scholar."

After hearing this, Emperor Jingyuan looked at Mr. Ying Ge: "Do you prefer him to be the number one scholar in this subject?"

He also pointed to Zong Zhengyi's strategy and said: "He also used troops to solve problems, and his articles were also excellent, so he deserves to be named the number one scholar."

Ying Ge smiled and said, "I have read Zong Zhengyi's article. He can indeed be called the number one scholar. But in terms of practical matters, he is not as good as Gu Jin'an."

He sighed again: "Now that Da Chu is employing people, it should first reuse talents like Gu Jinan. Zong Zhengyi can also be reused, but they must be polished first, otherwise they will not be able to take on big tasks."

What he said was that he was really a dedicated minister who dedicated his whole life to the imperial court.

But what he really thought in his heart was not like this. He was just coaxing Emperor Jingyuan.

Emperor Jingyuan did not answer the call, but handed the papers of Gu Jinan and Zong Zhengyi to Ouyang Zhang, Shangguange Lao and others for them to take a look.

After seeing it, the two elders both said: "They are both talented people. It's hard to tell them apart."

However, Mr. Fang said: "If we really talk about it, Gu Jinan is better... He is a farmer's son. He officially studied with a scholar after he was fifteen years old. It has only been seven years now, but Zong Zhengyi started his enlightenment at the age of three. , the family invited famous teachers to teach them, and piled them up with ancient and famous books. One of them suffered, the other enjoyed blessings, but their scores in the scientific examination were about the same, which shows that Gu Jinan is smarter and is a real gem."

This is so true that even the ministers from the wealthy families who hate the poor people the most nodded in agreement.

Emperor Jingyuan was very satisfied with what he heard, but he did not rush to decide the ranking of the top three. Instead, he continued to read the submitted article and was surprised by the strategy of a Zhongzhou Gongshi.

"Huang Youchi, I remember this man. He wrote about solving the banditry problem during the examination, which is good." Emperor Jingyuan handed Huang Youchi's article to Yingge Lao and others.

After reading it, Mr. Yingge and the others nodded and said: "It is indeed good, but the literary style is much worse than that of Gu Jinan, Zong Zhengyi, Song Yin, Feng Yu and others."

But this Huang Youchi knew a lot about the banditry in Da Chu, and he also knew a lot about the officers and soldiers. He was talented in controlling bandits and settling the people.

Besides, he was from a decent family, not from a wealthy family, and had no relatives or friends from Xu You's side. Emperor Jingyuan was very satisfied with him.
