Chapter 231: Mystery

In the examination room, most of the candidates were still struggling to conceive, frowning. But it's not that the writing is not continuous, but I don't know what point of view to hold to discuss it, and I am in a dilemma.

Yan Beichen sat on the south side of the Purple Light Pavilion and noticed a hint of strangeness in his teacher Wu Shan, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly, revealing a confident and proud smile.

As a member of the Yan clan, he has political resources that are incomparable to other tributes, and he has a more accurate channel for the political dynamics of the court, so it is easier to guess the intentions of the saints.

The issue of reopening the market is not new, and since the day it was closed, there have been people asking for reopening. The main reason why it was able to cause such a big controversy this time was that Tang Shunzhi, the Kaihai faction, threw out the fresh view that "the trouble of the Japanese is that the market cannot be opened".

If the restarting of the City Ship Division can solve the big problem of the plague of the Japanese Invaders, then the Holy Lord will inevitably adopt it, and it is too tempting to solve the problem of the Wolves compared to the concession of the Restart of the City Shipping Division.

You must know that in recent years, in order to solve the problem of Japanese invaders, the imperial court has sent hundreds of thousands of military salaries to Jiangsu and Zhejiang every year. If this problem can be solved, the financial pressure on the treasury will be eased.

It's just that this proposal came a little later, with Xu Hai's ambush the year before last, and Wang Zhi returned from Japan at the end of last year to prepare to accept Zhao'an, the problem of Japanese robbers in Jiangsu and Zhejiang has been alleviated.

Now that the plague in Jiangsu and Zhejiang has been alleviated, if it is agreed to reopen the market, what should be done about the resurgence?

You must understand that the current Ming treasury has long been overwhelmed, and even the Jingguan's Yulu has been affected. Once the troubles that have been finally alleviated rise again, Daming's finances will definitely be greatly impacted.

It is precisely because of this that it is impossible for the Holy Lord to loosen his mouth lightly, and the risks that need to be taken here are too great.

What's more, the objects of this assessment are all Xia Yan's disciples, and now that the question appears here, it undoubtedly implies the intention of the saint, that is, the Ming Dynasty will continue to implement the sea ban policy.

The corners of Yan Beichen's mouth curled, he lifted the pen and dipped it in ink on the inkstone, and was about to write down the wonderful article in his heart, when an official of the Ministry of Rites who was inspecting the examination happened to pass by him, and without a trace, he touched the hem of the official robe, and then walked away.

Yan Beichen's heart was slightly cold, the brush that he was about to lift continued to dip in ink on the inkstone at this time, and then pretended to put down the pen hesitantly, and his head began to run rapidly.

This official of the Ministry of Rites is a person from his uncle Yan Shifan, and the two have also drunk together. Obviously, this person's actions have a deep meaning, and they should have been appointed by the clan uncle.

As soon as he thought of this, Yan Beichen raised his head again and secretly looked at the clan uncle who was sitting on the side, and watched him deliberately squint his eyes, and his heart suddenly became relieved.

When the direction is clear, even if you take out your life's learning, you can put it on paper.

The pen fell into a storm, and it became a weeping ghost and god.

When Yan Beichen stopped writing, his face was full of pride, he was already in control, and he knew that this champion would not be able to run down. I was very proud in my heart, and I couldn't help but glance at Lin Haoran over there.

The palace examination did not hand in the papers in advance, and the time was set for three o'clock in the afternoon to be handed in uniformly.

By the time the three hundred and fifty-seven candidates stopped writing, their fate seemed to have been decided. Some people have a happy face, while others have a depressed face, but more often than not, they are suffering from gains and losses.

No matter what the result is, since a tribute named Zhang Yuan in the Northern Song Dynasty repeatedly failed the list and angrily defected to the Western Xia to attack the Song Dynasty, Song Renzong has no longer had an elimination system in the palace test.

No matter how bad they are in this hall, they can get the reputation of a third-class jinshi, and they will become the seventh-grade officials of the Ming Dynasty.

The papers were placed in front of the table, and after the test papers were collected, Xu Jie, the director of the palace examination, said kindly: "The palace examination has ended, and the results will be announced the day after tomorrow. ”

The candidate thanked Xu Jie, and then kowtowed to the throne above the Purple Light Pavilion and thanked the teacher.

The chief examiner of the palace examination is Jiajing, so they are already protégés of the Son of Heaven, which is also one of the reasons why the non-commissioned officers look down on the officers. In terms of status alone, they are much more noble than lifting people.

As the officials of the Ministry of Rites walked out of the gate of Xiyuan, although it was still early, many people had tired faces on their faces, and they all said goodbye to each other and left from the carriage waiting here.

At this moment, their road to the imperial examination has already completed the entire process. After the last rites, they will become an official of the Ming Dynasty.

In the carriage of the carriage, Ning Jiang couldn't help but ask Lin Haoran, "Which faction did you choose?" ”

"You don't need to ask, it's about to open the sea!" Yang Futian, who was in the same car with them, hurriedly replied.

"You pig!" Ning Jiang immediately reprimanded angrily, and then came up with a reason: "Our master is Xia Yan, and the emperor must want to convey his attitude of wanting to ban the sea through us!" ”

"I think you're a pig!" Yang Futian immediately glanced at him, and then continued: "Xia Yan is true that our master is true, but he is a prisoner, and the emperor has always been arbitrary, so he can convey his intentions through us?" ”

This......

Lin Haoran and Ning Jiang widened their eyes and looked at Yang Futian with shocked faces. It's not to question Yang Futian, but on the contrary, what this thing said is too right.

Xia Yan is their master, but he is also a prisoner, which is more important? Naturally, this is the precedence of the crime against Chin, and they can no longer put this identity into account, so the situation should be the opposite.

The intention of the Holy One should not be to convey the ban on the sea, but to support the opening of the sea.

The two didn't expect that this usually smug Yang Futian would poke at the point all of a sudden.

"You're not going to support the sea ban, are you?" Yang Futian also widened his eyes and looked at the two of them incredulously and asked.

Lin Haoran and Ning Jiang looked at each other speechlessly, knowing that this time they were smart but were mistaken by being smart, and they were afraid that they had chosen the wrong direction. Now that I think about it, Jiajing is very likely to support the opening of the sea, otherwise why would he move this argument to such an important palace test?

Syllable!

Lin Haoran stretched out his hand and slapped his forehead heavily, and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed in his heart, why couldn't he see such a simple truth in the examination room at that time?

Ay!

Yang Futian's eyes fell on Lin Haoran, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful. With Lin Haoran's talent, as long as he chooses the right direction, he will definitely win the top prize, but now, he may really fall into the top three.

Ning Jiang's mood was also very low, he was bent on getting the second grade, but he was likely to fall into the top three. What frustrated him was that Yang Futian, who had always been despised by him, was very likely to be in front of him.

The three people in the car suddenly fell silent, and only the sound of the car turning outside remained.
