This time, Emperor Chongzhen did not write any edicts in advance and handed them over to them to take care of some scholars.

However, at this time, seeing that Emperor Chongzhen was looking for the name of someone or some people, the three ministers in charge of this Spring Festival suddenly all understood.

Although the emperor in front of him did not say it explicitly, just like Enke back then, the emperor must have already had some favorite candidates in his heart.

Xu Guangqi and He Ruzhong were open-minded, and when they saw this, they only frowned slightly, basically unmoved, and continued to sit on the brocade stool under the imperial case with their eyes and noses, waiting for the emperor's next words.

Only one of the vice presidents of this Spring Festival, the left deputy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Jia Jichun, was apprehensive.

He knew very well that Emperor Chongzhen's purpose in making him the vice president was to let him supervise Xu Guangqi and He Ruzhong, and at the same time ensure that this Spring Festival was still carried out according to the emperor's will.

It's a pity that before the exam, Emperor Chongzhen didn't have any clear will for this Spring Festival, and he didn't give him any instructions in private, which made him confused.

Jia Jichun, Niu Juming, and Xu Yuqing are now above the Beijing Imperial Court, and they have become the emperor's royal mouthpiece.

Many of Emperor Chongzhen's ideas, before they were really taken to the court meeting, were often through their hands and mouths, and they were the first to release the wind to test the reaction of the government and the opposition.

Among these people, Jia Jichun, who has the highest position, is not the core figure.

The core figure is Niu Juming, who was picked up by Emperor Chongzhen and placed in the position of Fang Shilang in the Ministry of War.

Niu Juming, of course, is Niu Jinxing, the prime minister of the Great Shun Dynasty in history.

However, since he was admitted to the Jinshi, now the Chongzhen Emperor told him that the word "Juming" has a better meaning than his name, so let him use the word to practice the world, so from then on, he took the word as his name, and the name was reversed.

Of course, Emperor Chongzhen let him take the name of the word, and the real reason was not what was said to him on the surface.

The real reason is actually very simple, that is, the name Niu Jinxing is too stinky in later generations, and now every time Emperor Chongzhen sees this name, he will always have an urge to drive him away from the court.

And the reason why he didn't do this was because deep down in his heart, he always felt that this person still had some usability in the current court of the Ming Dynasty.

At least compared to those Shilin Qingliu, who were so high, such a person had a different use for the emperor.

Because people like Niu Juming can be regarded as an outlier in the literati and doctor class.

Compared with the many hypocrites above the court, this kind of person should belong to the category of real villains.

They may have some problems in loyalty, filial piety, and martyrdom, not so chaste and nine martyrs, but they have scheming, and they have skills, and most importantly, they are willing to act as the mouthpiece of the emperor, willing to act as the emperor's knife, and do not care too much about their false name and reputation.

Such a person is more useful to the current Emperor Chongzhen than a hypocrite.

In addition to this reason, Emperor Chongzhen was actually worried that if he really wanted to drive people like Niu Juming, that is, Niu Jinxing, out of the court, he would make something big if he couldn't prevent him.

Such people who have made great names in the original history should never be underestimated.

Let's say that this time, after Jia Jichun was appointed as the vice president, he didn't wait for Emperor Chongzhen's secret decree or dictation, so he went to visit Niu Juming.

However, this time, Niu Juming, the emperor's confidant, did not know what specific plans he had on the issue of recruiting tributes in Chunqiu, so he could not provide Jia Jichun with any really useful advice.

At this time, Jia Jichun saw that the emperor seemed to have not found the name he was looking for, and his heart began to be secretly anxious.

If it is one of the candidates that the emperor likes, this time his name fell to Sun Shan and was not admitted by them, wouldn't it be a dereliction of duty for him, the appointed vice president, and what should he do next?

Jia Jichun was thinking nervously and nervously, when he suddenly heard that not far away, Emperor Chongzhen, who was sitting behind the imperial book case, snorted.

Jia Jichun hurriedly looked up, only to see that after Emperor Chongzhen hummed, he nodded with a smile on his own face, and then started from the beginning, carefully flipped through the book that had just been hurriedly flipped over.

Jia Jichun's heart was relieved, knowing that the emperor had found the name he was looking for.

The psychology of Jia Jichun and others, Emperor Chongzhen naturally couldn't guess it, and he was not interested in scruples.

And he searched for a long time, and finally found the name he wanted to see on the last page full of the names of the tributes:

"Chongzhen's four-year ritual test, take the first Wu Bai zero a tribute, Zhejiang Yuyao Guozi Jian Shangsha Huang Zongxi, father Huang Zunsu, Wanli forty-four years to give Jinshi ......"

Emperor Chongzhen did not expect the ranking given to Huang Zongxi by Xu Guangqi, He Ruchong and Jia Jichun, the three presidents and vice presidents.

But when he saw Huang Zongxi's name on the last page of the admission list, deep down he was very satisfied with the result.

In the original history, Huang Zongxi was cared for by many scholars and officialdom, on the one hand, because he was a personal disciple of the Confucian master Liu Zongzhou, and on the other hand, because he was the eldest son of Huang Zunsu, the minister of the Donglin Party during the Apocalypse.

But even so, until the fall of the Ming Dynasty, he failed to pass the Jinshi as he wished.

And it wasn't until the autumn of Chongzhen's fifteenth year that he finally passed the exam.

From his early childhood to the time he was admitted to the Juren, it took more than 15 years, and he participated in at least six Zhejiang Township Examinations, and all of them failed in the first five.

What does this mean?

This shows that Huang Zongxi's later thoughts, after he became a Xiucai, basically began to sprout.

And his more outrageous remarks and ideas basically doomed him to be unlikely to achieve a good ranking in the imperial examination for the selection of court officials.

This time, if Huang Zongxi hadn't directly participated in the examination as a student of the country, and at the same time encountered a subject with the largest number of admissions since the opening of the Ming Dynasty, then his fate would probably be like in history, and he would have been eliminated in the imperial examination again and again.

If a figure like Huang Zongxi has never been able to pass the Jinshi examination, just like in history, it will definitely not be a good thing.

Not to mention that it will force Huang Zongxi to the opposite side of the current bureaucratic system of the Ming Dynasty, let's just say that if such talents are always rejected from the bureaucracy of the Ming Dynasty, then this bureaucratic system is probably indeed a serious problem and it is difficult to renew itself.

Today's result is just right.

And what satisfies Emperor Chongzhen the most is precisely the ranking set by these examiners for Huang Zongxi.

First, Huang Zongxi was admitted to the Gongshi, although the ranking was very low, but after all, he also became a member of the bureaucracy of the Ming Dynasty.

Both, his ranking is low enough, which will make him have no status among the Jinshi of the fourth year of Chongzhen, and he will not have any appeal.

This will also greatly reduce his influence on the scholars of the Ming Dynasty, especially the Jiangnan Shilin, who attaches great importance to the ranking of the imperial examination.

In addition, there is a customary rule in the imperial examination system of the Ming Dynasty, that is, "the three lists are all external".

In the imperial examination system of the Ming Dynasty, all the people who finally won the Jinshi were divided into three lists according to their ranks, also known as the top three.

The first list is the top three, called Jinshi and the first, and according to the ranking, it is the champion, the list eye, and the flower.

The top three are basically all admitted to the Hanlin Academy as Hanlin.

The second list is a number of names, called Jinshi origin, and there is no special title or title.

However, the second list of Jinshi has the opportunity to enter the Hanlin Academy, and can be selected as a Shujishi, or can enter the six departments and six departments of the imperial court, or other yamen such as the ministry and temple supervisor of the Beijing Division.

As for the Jinshi of the three lists, they can only be called "born with Jinshi", and their status in Shilin and the political arena is far inferior to that of the Jinshi in the first two lists.

In particular, according to the practice of the Ming Dynasty's new branch jinshi as officials, the three jinshi were all to go out of Beijing to serve abroad, and they were often county officials.

Many have spent their entire lives in remote provinces serving as state and county officials.

This is the huge difference between the officials from the three ranks of Jinshi and the officials from the Jinshi and the first-class Jinshi and the first-class Jinshi and the first-class and second-class Jinshi.

This time, although the young Huang Zongxi changed his fate in history, he originally did not have a reputation, he participated in the Ministry of Rites examination as a prisoner of the country, and he actually passed the exam, but he was ranked tenth from the bottom of the three lists, if there was no special will of Emperor Chongzhen, he was destined to be appointed to a remote province far away from the Beijing Division, to be a county official in a certain place.

So, would Emperor Chongzhen interfere with the appointment of the officials to him?

Of course not.

It was in line with Emperor Chongzhen's intention to let him go to a remote and inconspicuous place to become a county official, and then be promoted step by step from the position of county official.

Because only in this way can people like him have a real understanding of local government affairs.

Perhaps only in this way can Huang Zongxi in the future be able to avoid detaching himself from reality and talking about the country when he really begins to write and speak in various ways.

As the saying goes, compared to the state and county, the fierce general must be in the ranks.

Only in this way, when he is fully familiar with the government affairs of the local provincial capitals and counties of the Ming Dynasty, can the doctrines proposed in the future be truly beneficial to the future political reform of the Ming Dynasty.

If that time really comes, it is to promote him from the position of local provincial capital or state and county, and let him serve as the first assistant of the cabinet to preside over the future political reform of the Ming Dynasty, what is not to do?

Emperor Chongzhen was even looking forward to such a day.
