Fang Jifan was shocked.

This...... What a man.

The eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty are really all heroes.

It is almost conceivable that when Emperor Hongzhi and Zhu Houzhao happily muttered about the hot pot and praised the deliciousness of the hot pot, Liu Jin, who was standing and waiting from afar, fell to the ground like a water curtain.

It can be imagined how Liu Jin was impatient to wait for His Majesty to move, and when Zhu Houzhao and the two went to send them off, they suddenly rushed to the hot pot, and without saying a word, they picked up the pot, and it was boring.

Liu Jin...... I don't think I've ever tasted chili peppers yet.

This is really even Hunan people, don't dare to play like this, and our Liu Jin, he did it.

Liu Jin huffed his neck, lay on the ground, and began to roll, making a hoarse voice: "There is poison in the soup...... Toxic ......"

Liu Jin usually speaks in a shrill voice, like a woman, but today she has regained her true colors as a man, with that rough voice and that howl like killing a pig......

Fang Jifan shook his head, his heart softened, and he hurriedly said, "Hurry up, get water..."

Liu Jin began to pour water desperately, until he even vomited bile, which eased slightly, and was carried down with eh, eh.

…………

Emperor Hongzhi was in the court, when he was in good spirits, with a red face appeared in the palace, the ministers quietly observed His Majesty's complexion, and were pleasantly surprised.

Every time His Majesty is seriously ill, there will inevitably be many rumors inside and outside, which is already a matter of habit.

Only when His Majesty personally appeared in the Hall of Worship and accepted the congratulations of the hundred officials did everyone feel relieved.

So the ministers were overjoyed, and when the court discussion was almost over, Emperor Hongzhi was full of red light: "Recently, I have occasionally felt unwell, and the princes have been worried about me, but it has been hard." I was seriously ill and missed the entrance examination, and I have chosen to teach the new tribute students on the third day of the first month of next month. ”

The ministers said yes one after another.

This year's examination is very hopeless.

That Xishan Academy is a group of cattle that can swallow life alive, almost all the ministers, the raw materials are thinking that they must be successful, and there are many people who directly fall off the list, even if they are on the list, but their rankings are not obvious.

Although His Majesty was extraordinarily gracious and ordered people to add thirteen people named Sun Mountain to pay tribute, but I had only heard of the birth of the Citong Jinshi, and had not heard of the birth of the Gongshi.

At this time, someone slowly stood up: "Your Majesty, the minister has a word." ”

Emperor Hongzhi looked at it, but it was Yang Tinghe, a scholar of Hanlin Chamberlain.

Yang Tinghe said: "Your Majesty, it has been a hundred and twenty years since the Eight Shares of Scholars, among them, there are many drawbacks in taking scholars, if you continue to use this to take scholars, I am afraid that the ministers will ......."

As soon as Yang Tinghe spoke, countless whispers suddenly came from the hall.

In the past, I didn't think that it was bad to take eight shares, after all, the vast majority of people came out by taking the eight shares, even if they felt that there was something bad, they only talked about it in private.

Now that Yang Tinghe said it directly in the temple, it can be seen that a considerable number of people have already raised doubts about the Eight Shares of Scholars.

Emperor Hongzhi was noncommittal.

More people are silent.

Yes, there are drawbacks to taking the eight shares, but can the court change it? No!

You let the world's scholars study hard for ten years, but they go to learn a new knowledge? Aren't you afraid of the world being turned upside down?

Of course, there are also people who complain about the eight shares, thinking that these eight shares have been exploited.

But everyone is more helpless, people are dancing within this rule, the rules, originally biased towards Cheng Zhu Confucian, you even Cheng Zhu is not as good as those new Confucian students, this is obviously not the problem of Xishan Academy, but your problem.

Emperor Hongzhi smiled, didn't make a sound, only bowed his head: "I know." ”

The ministers were speechless, and no one seemed willing to follow up.

And Yang Tinghe obviously didn't entangle.

It is said that in Xishan, that a meritorious balloon, by the way, called the bad heart and Tingyang, and now, it has retired from the flying team, has become the main sightseeing facilities of the Xishan farmhouse, there are hundreds of people every day, lined up, boarded the bad heart and Tingyang, slowly rising into the sky, people on the ground, marveling at the huge 'He Tingyang' rising up, the tourists in the basket exclaimed, very lively.

Yang Tinghe is still alive strong, he naturally knows that he has become infamous, and he is known to the world, and people always like to study the story behind this word from the familiar words, and the allusions to He Tingyang are also spread everywhere.

Yang Tinghe naturally knows that there is no way to change the eight shares, and this matter affects the whole body, don't say that he is just a bachelor and a nominal Zhan Shifu Zhan Shi can not be shaken, even if it is the Son of Heaven, it is the Zaifu of the Ming Dynasty, and there is no one who dares to take the knife from the eight shares, this is the country's capital, and it is the foundation of hundreds of thousands of scholars, people, and talents in the world, when there is no Bagu Shishi, or when the eight shares are not considered to be the measure of talent and learning, then hundreds of thousands of officials, gentry and meritorious scholars in the world, And what?

Losing this legitimacy, you see if the world's scholars smoke you to death.

The foundation of the imperial court lies in maintaining the talents of the world, and what people are talented has different standards in each era, such as ...... In the Sui and Tang dynasties and before, it was a family, for example, now, it is a family that can support their children to study, the Ming Dynasty is to rule the world with scholars, you let scholars go to find another way out, or say to scholars and doctors, I have decided, what you learned in the past does not count, believe it or not they dare to smash the pot of your court.

Yang Tinghe naturally understood this, he just complained, which meant that those people who took advantage of loopholes in Xishan Academy were nothing remarkable.

He was a broken jar and fell into a relationship with the people of Xishan Academy.

And everyone knows this, so no one is silent.

Emperor Hongzhi only smiled, then got up and quit the court.

The ministers retired.

Liu Jian didn't say anything from beginning to end, that Yang Tinghe, he was sympathetic in his heart, they were all scholars, and they were also officials in the same dynasty, Yang Tinghe became He Tingyang, which really makes people feel his grievances, but what's the matter with you Yang Tinghe, smashing my son's pot? My son is Huiyuan, and he came from the exam in a dignified manner, how old are you?

Naturally, with Liu Jian's self-cultivation, he would not be a dignified cabinet first assistant scholar to tear up with a mere Yang Tinghe himself.

In this imperial examination, the group discussion was raging, and the doubts were indeed not small.

Well...... Let's look at the temple test, I think there are many people here, all waiting to see the joke.

………………

Xishan Academy, even if the palace exam is imminent, the thirteen new tribute students of Xishan Academy still have to learn new learning and riding and archery as usual, and even, Fang Jifan personally wrapped two balloons, took all the disciples and grandchildren, boarded the balloons, and let the balloons float, so that they could see the vastness of the world.

Naturally, there were two hours a day, and they would close the door, and then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would take out some transcriptions from the palace for everyone to simulate and discuss.

Next, Zhu Houzhao sat in the Zhenguo Mansion as the 'emperor', and the thirteen tributes were courtiers, and Fang Jifan and Wang Shouren and others were the first assistant scholars of the cabinet.

As soon as the door was closed, a letter of enclosure was taken out, and then Liu Jie and others were asked to express their opinions on these recitals.

The so-called palace examination is a policy theory, and the essence of policy theory is actually that the emperor asks the government and gives an exam question, such as where the flood is, so that the tribute students can come up with ideas to see who can answer better.

Zhu Houzhao took out a recital, this is the latest to send to the palace recital, and then, this recital fell into the hands of Fang Jifan, Fang Jifan read: "Jinhua Mansion Governor Liu Jiajin said: Recently, Jinhua Mansion haunted more than 100 thieves, rampant in the township, prepared for the Japanese guard to command Liu Qing was ordered to pursue, to Hengdian Township, the minister led 700 officers and soldiers to fight with the local strong officials and thieves, killing dozens of pirates, Liu Qingyong can not be a pawn, take the lead, all the way to chase and kill the poor Kou, personally risk the arrows and stones, fight to the death and do not retreat, there are murderous Japanese robbers take advantage of their singleness, surround it, Liu Qing takes the bow, shot down three pirates from a distance of 300 zhang; Raise the knife and rush to kill, but there are many Japanese people, so Naishing the knife to fight with fists and feet, a Japanese Kou to carry the knife, Liu Qing is powerful, Shengsheng will lift it like a ding, tear it apart...... In this battle, the first meritor, the commander Liu Qing is also ......"

Hengdian has won a big victory.

This command is even more remarkable, three hundred zhang raised a bow to kill the enemy, and even hit a hundred shots, and actually tore the widow into two with both hands.

In such a tragic scene, Fang Jifan's eyebrows didn't jump, and he read it out calmly.

Just kidding, Young Master Ben has never seen anything in the world, what is it to kill an enemy in three hundred zhang, and I have seen a devil eight hundred miles away, although it is only on TV.

Zhu Houzhao looked at Liu Jie and the others with a smile: "What do you think?" ”

Liu Jie and the others only looked at each other, and then, a disciple said: "This good news must be a fraud, the prefect of Jinhua Mansion and the local guard commander are in cahoots, colluding with each other, and taking credit for it." The students have learned the bow and horse, and they know that the bow and arrow cannot kill the enemy in 300 zhang, and as for tearing people apart, this is even more absurd. ”

Zhu Houzhao nodded, he was a martial artist, and he was proud of his skill in bowing and horses, so he naturally knew that the prefect of Jinhua had taken too much risk.

He said: "But why, Jinhua prefect, dare to boast of such a Haikou? ”

The disciples and grandchildren scrambled to be the first, and Liu Jie replied this time: "The literati don't know about military affairs, because they are brazen and praised, but they don't know the actual situation at all, so they only rely on their own imagination and brag indiscriminately, which has always been the biggest drawback of the country's horse politics. ”

Zhu Houzhao smiled and stared at Liu Jie: "So, do you know Ma Zheng?" ”
