Chapter 71 The examiners of the autumn examination have agreed! Is Yuan Kangan sick?
Before Sister Yue was born, the Qin family never thought that they would have the chance to enter the court again.
Over the past hundred years, all the Qin family members have basically been engaged in business. After all, there is only one person in a generation, and they have to take on the task of making money and doing charity.
When Zhao'er was born, because Qin'er was in front of him, Lord Qin thought that he could take whichever path he wanted to take. Even if he became a rich and leisurely person for the rest of his life, the Qin family could afford to support him.
But no one expected that after Zhao'er began to be enlightened at the age of three, under the guidance of the enlightenment teacher, he began to embark on the path of literature.
This enlightenment teacher, named Xu Guan, was a son who had failed in the imperial examinations for many years and wanted to give up continuing to take the imperial examinations.
It was Lord Qin who rescued Xu Guan from a group of bandits during a business trip.
When Xu Guan failed in the imperial examination, he was discouraged and planned to return to his hometown to find a job.
At that time, he was over 40 years old, and it was not easy for the old and young in his family to support him.
He could not let his family suffer any more, so he decided to give up the idea of ​​continuing to take the exam.
Moreover, with his identity as a tutor, it was not difficult for him to find a good job in his hometown.
As a result, he encountered bandits on the way home.
After Lord Qin rescued him, he talked to him and learned that he was a tutor. Thinking that the teacher who used to teach Qin'er had retired and returned to his hometown, he invited Xu Guan to be the enlightenment teacher of his children.
Of course, the tuition was very generous, enough for Xu Guan to rent a house in the southern lane of the capital, and to bring his parents, wife and children to live with him.
Xu Guan originally planned to go home to find a job. If he could continue to stay in the capital, he could continue to review while receiving the tuition, and he could continue to take exams without dragging down his family.
So Xu Guan became the enlightenment teacher of Qin Qin and Qin Zhao.
However, Qin Qin had no talent in learning literature, so he focused on arithmetic and other business-related content.
Qin Zhao, on the other hand, showed a very high talent in studying.
At that time, no one wanted Qin Zhao to take the imperial examination and enter the court in the future, so it was just to learn more knowledge, which was right after all.
The more Qin Zhao learned, the more obvious his reading ability became.
Master Xu, with a heart of love for talent, devoted all his efforts to teach Qin Zhao. When Qin Zhao was thirteen years old, he even encouraged him to take the imperial examination to compare with other students in the Southern Dynasty to see how good his knowledge was.
In this way, Qin Zhao passed the Tongsheng examination and the Xiang examination in one go and became a real scholar!
Qin Zhao also constantly summarized the gaps and made up for his shortcomings in the examinations, and his ranking was getting higher and higher!
In the spring of the following year after Qin Zhao passed the examination for a scholar, Master Xu finally passed the joint examination, and finally got a government post in the outer court as the second-class in the palace examination.
Before leaving the capital, Master Xu could not bear to see Qin Zhao's talent for studying go to waste, so he asked his fellow countryman and friend Sun Bai, who was then an assistant teacher at the Imperial College, to help him get a chance to take the Imperial College entrance examination .
Sun Bai, like Xu Guan, was a man who valued talent. After reading Qin Zhao's essay, he presented it to his boss, Doctor Meng Su.
It happened that Meng Su was the examiner of the entrance examination that year. With Sun Bai's strong recommendation, he read Qin Zhao's essay.
Meng Su saw that although Qin Zhao's essay had flaws, he could see that he was a promising talent. Later, he learned that Qin Zhao came from the Qin family, a prestigious "Qin Xia merchant" among the people, so he gave Qin Zhao a place for the exam.
Of course, Qin Zhao was also very competitive. He seized the opportunity and successfully entered the Imperial College to study.
Under the study system of the Imperial College, Qin Zhao made rapid progress. In just two years, he was promoted to Class A and remained at the top of Class A. He never fell out of the top three in the monthly exams.
Lord Qin did not object to Qin Zhao's entry into the Imperial College at first, thinking that it would be great to have more cultural people in the family in the future.
The next generation can also be taught by their own family.
At that time, Lord Qin did not dare to hope that the Qin family would have a chance to return to the court.
But now, Sister Yue has lifted the curse of the Qin family.
It's time for Zhao'er to take the path that suits him best.
The old master stepped forward, bowed and said.
"Your Majesty, the chief examiners of the autumn examinations in previous years were all served by scholars from the Hanlin Academy."
"This year, the old Hanlin retired at the beginning of the year. The new Hanlin Academy scholar, Du Songqing, is upright, knowledgeable, and has served in local areas. He focuses on practical work."
"I think he can be appointed as the chief examiner, and he will definitely be able to select more capable people for the court. The candidates for examiners to be sent to various places can be selected from various ministries."
As soon as the words fell, Prime Minister Situ Nan also echoed: "Your Majesty, I think the candidates recommended by the old Tai Shi are suitable."
"I second your opinion."
"I second your opinion."
Many court officials stepped forward to express their agreement.
Emperor Jinyuan frowned in thought. Du Songqing was indeed a man of extraordinary talent and learning, and he was not very old. He was the new champion in the 33rd year of Emperor Jinkang. He entered the court at the age of 22, and after five years in the Hanlin Academy, he took the initiative to request to be transferred to a local official.
During his time in the field, Du Songqing followed the people to the fields and planted crops. He also discovered a local specialty, which led to the rapid development of the local economy, and the people gradually lived a good life.
It can be said that Du Songqing was deeply loved by the local people after serving as an official for several years. He
was transferred back to the Hanlin Academy in recent years, majoring in the compilation of annals.
At the beginning of this year, the old Hanlin retired and strongly recommended Du Songqing to Emperor Jinyuan, saying that he had a very high literary achievement and a rich grassroots experience.
In the process of compiling the annals, he found several times that the materials submitted by the localities were falsified, which led to the corruption of local officials.
Therefore, Du Songqing, who was only 35 years old, naturally became the new Hanlin Academy Bachelor.
Emperor Jin Yuan believed that there was nothing wrong with Du Songqing's knowledge, but he was not very old, and the other officials selected were all old hands in various departments. He was worried that he could not control these people.
Emperor Jin Yuan also expressed his concerns: "What you said is very true. Du Songqing is very suitable in terms of knowledge and qualifications. But I am worried that he is still young and cannot control other examiners. He will be led by the nose and lose the fairness that should be given to the autumn examination."
The court officials were also thoughtful after hearing this.
Qin Yue also heard what Emperor Jin Yuan said at this time, and suddenly said: [You just dislike that he is too young, why not send an older person to calm the situation? ]
Emperor Jin Yuan's eyes lit up. What the young official said was a good way.
All the court officials thought so too, so the court officials, on behalf of the Prime Minister Situ Nan, stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, I recommend the old master to be the chief examiner of this autumn examination, and Du Songqing as the deputy examiner. With the old master here, I think no one dares to act rashly."
The old master received the prime minister's eyes and stood up helplessly.
He was almost old, and he wanted to enjoy his grandchildren, but the prime minister wanted to pull him out.
Okay, since he is in the position, he must also plan his politics.
"Your Majesty, I am willing to share your worries!"
Emperor Jin Yuan said, "Very good! With the old master here, it will be like a stabilizing force! I will definitely rest assured!"
"Please present the list of examiners selected from various departments to the court tomorrow morning."
"Yes, Your Majesty! It is my honor to be able to serve Your Majesty with my old bones! How can I say it is hard work!"
The matter of the Autumn Examination was temporarily agreed upon.
At this time, the system suddenly spoke again.
System: [Host, actually, Yuan Kangan has a problem, so that for so many years, the mighty general has not let him show him too much in front of people. ]
Qin Yue asked in confusion: [What's the problem? ]
The mighty general's scalp tightened when he heard it.
Is this going to be known to others?
Alas, forget it, it's too late.
Emperor Jin Yuan, all the court officials: ???
Xu Shangshu, Xia Da Ren: !!!
