Chapter 39 Township Test Turmoil III

The room at the back of the Tribute Academy, where the examiner rests, will never be as shabby as the examination place.

It is no different from ordinary officials.

If according to the general rules. After the start of the exam, the entire Gongyuan was blocked, and entry and exit were not allowed. But Zhang Xuan's identity is special, so he doesn't dare to lose contact with the outside world for a few days, so even after the exam, all the affairs of Guangdong and Hunan will be transmitted to Zhang Xuan.

Zhang Xuan had just read Hunan's report on the township test.

Although there were many soldiers in Hunan who resisted the township test, the plan was not as big as that of Guangdong. Yao Qisheng was slightly appeased, and he calmed down. Although the number of people participating in the township examination is still not enough, it is not bad, where is it like Guangdong, you have to coerce and temptation to make up the number of people who take the exam, so that you can't even make up for it.

"But it's finally over." Zhang Xuan sighed in his heart.

Time is a good medicine, and the longer the time, the deeper the rule of Great Xia over Guangdong, and the more the Cantonese scholars will return to their hearts.

"General, things are not good." Zheng Lian hurriedly walked over from the front and said worriedly.

Zhang Xuan's heart suddenly froze, and he said, "What happened?" ”

Zheng Lian said: "The test papers of the candidates in front of me are wrong. General, go and have a look. ”

After all, Zheng Lian was born as a scholar, and with his current status by Zhang Xuan's side, he would be at least a prefect if he was released. So when I was a child, the idea of taking the imperial examination faded. But it does not prevent me from yearning for the imperial examination as a scholar.

Therefore, after entering the Tribute Academy, he wanted Zhang Xuan to ask for instructions and went to the examination room to inspect.

Zhang Xuan naturally allowed it.

At this moment, Zhang Xuan listened to Zheng Lian's words, and without saying a word, he immediately got up and entered the examination room.

The whole examination room is like a large shopping mall, divided into a small counter, and this counter has a sheltered roof, which can only accommodate one person to sit down. Zhang Xuan also noticed the test papers of the candidates one by one.

He glanced at it. White rolls, white rolls, white rolls.

Three people in a row are white rolls. The fourth person has words on the paper. It's just that Zhang Xuan squinted and saw eight words: "In the past, I came, and Yang Liu Yiyi." Zhang Xuan immediately knew that this was not an eight-strand text, but a practice of calligraphy on top of the test paper. wrote "Picking Rose".

At this moment, Zhang Xuan has never hated a poem so much.

Zhang Xuan held back his anger, looked at them one by one, and finally determined that almost most of the scholars did this, either simply blank the papers, or write "Cai Wei" on the top of the examination papers.

Zhang Xuan took a deep breath and said secretly in his heart: "Really when I don't dare to kill? Then he sighed secretly and said secretly: "These people really can't be killed." ”

He can understand Zhang Xianzhong a little at the moment.

It is said that Zhang Xianzhong opened a branch in Chengdu last year, but it turned out to be a massacre, and all those who participated in the ceremony were killed. Not one remained, there were thousands. Many people say that Zhang Xianzhong is a murderer. Zhang Xuan had no intention of defending Zhang Xianzhong. After all, this uncle's murderous nature, Luo Rucai couldn't even see it when he was there, let alone Zhang Xuan.

It's just that Zhang Xuan is sure that when Zhang Xianzhong invited these people to take the exam, he probably didn't want to kill anyone. It's just that what happened in the examination room provoked Zhang Xianzhong to kill, and no one knows.

However, what Zhang Xianzhong did had already set an example for Zhang Xuan.

Zhang Xuan is sure that he will kill these candidates today, and tomorrow there will be smoke all over Guangdong.

Zhang Xuan held back his anger and shook his sleeves and left, called Fu Shangrui over, almost wanted to smash the test paper on his face, and said, "That's how you do things." ”

Fu Shangrui was also frightened and staggered, knelt on the ground, and said, "The general is angry, the general is angry." ”

Zhang Xuan closed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and said, "Okay, I'm angry, do you have any remedies now?" ”

Fu Shangrui sweated profusely and said: "Xiaguan, Xiaguan, Xiaguan----- "Xiaguan" for a while, "Xiaguan" kept going, but he just couldn't say a word.

Zhang Xuan looked at him like this, how could he not know that this Fu Shangrui was helpless at all.

Immediately, Zhang Xuan gave Fu Shangrui a bad review in his heart. Without saying much, he said, "In this case, you don't need to be here, leave the tribute court immediately, and go to deal with the affairs of the governor of Guangdong." “

Fu Shangrui was heartbroken for a while, but Zhang Xuan didn't dare not listen to his words, and said, "Yes." ”

He knew that his career was at least under Zhang Xuan, and it was almost over.

His speculation is good, the reason why Fu Shangrui can become the governor of a province today is only because he surrendered early, if he really has the ability, Zhang Xuan will naturally not be stingy and reused. But this thing can't be done well, and Zhang Xuan has no replaceable manpower in his hands now, otherwise the governor of Guangdong wouldn't want to do it.

After Zhang Xuan saw Fu Shangrui leave, he said to Zheng Lian: "Use a backup plan." ”

Zheng Lian's face was embarrassed, and he said, "General, do you really want to do this?" ”

Zhang Xuan sighed, he didn't want to do this. But when I thought of it, Guangdong's first township test caused such a situation. He definitely didn't want to make a fuss about Guangdong Province, all of which were white volumes, which not only made Zhang Xuan lose face. It also damaged the prestige of Great Xia.

"At this time, we can only use extraordinary means." Zhang Xuan said: "However, this matter must be kept absolutely confidential, tell them, and whenever there is any rumor." Just be careful of their heads, even if they are official and want their lives, I have the means. ”

Zheng Lian said: "Yes." ”

Zheng Lian hurriedly went to do things.

What is he going to do? It's just to pass on the answer.

Zhang Xuan's ambush was to gather a group of down-and-out literati, these literati have fame, but their abilities are not strong, with their ability, it is even more difficult to pass the township test than to ascend to the sky. And some of these are poor and destitute, and they don't have enough to eat.

Even some people have some problems with their procedures. However, I was greeted by Zhang Xuan. Nature is unimpeded.

Zhang Xuan didn't want to do such a thing, since these scholars did this in the first year of junior high school, Zhang Xuan naturally dared to do fifteen, since you boycotted the township test, don't blame Zhang Xuan for cheating.

In an exam, it goes without saying that there is a secret confrontation.

After leaving the examination room, although these scholars sat in the examination room for several days, and some of them did not write a word, they were all in high spirits, as if they had become heroes. Outside the examination room, there were many scholars who came to greet them.

After asking each other, it was found that almost all of them did not write. Some scholars also sang "Picking Rose" in unison. In the three days before the exam, it seems that in the city of Guangdong, there is singing and picking roses everywhere.

It's just three days later, when the list is released. They were taken aback.

Under Kuang Lu's spiritual call, and under the watchful eyes of many big families, almost all the scholars in Guangzhou were unified. Everybody agreed. But I don't want to fill the list without any of them exposed.

And what makes them even more uncomfortable is the name on it.

"Yang Mingjing? Who knows Yang Mingjing?"

"I seem to have heard that it is a scoundrel in Chaozhou, who seems to have an affair with bandits."

"Who is this Zhou Mingcheng?"

"It's like a complaint."

"Who is this Xian Zijing?"

"It's just a businessman in Foshan."

The people on the list are all marginal figures in the literati circle, and they are the kind of characters in the literati collection that will not appear at all. At this moment, all of them are on the list, and they have won fame. These scholars were angry at first, and then secretly had a trace of regret in their hearts, and said secretly: "These people can be on the list, if I write it, I can also be on the list, I can't say that it is still Xie Yuan." ”

Of course, they won't say these words, but they reprimanded these people one after another, did not abide by the words of the saints, and flattered the general of Zhengnan. Abominable. Shameless, self-excluded from the circle of literati and doctors.

But they're just scolding, to the people on the list. It won't help in the slightest.

And the people's hearts are scattered, and in the next township test, there will never be such a thing. Many people also understood it, and some people sighed and left. For example, Kuang Lu. Of course, Kuang Lu left the city of Guangzhou, and some people said that he was followed by a Miao woman, and then disappeared. The next time he was seen, it was decades later.
