Chapter 753: Entering the Palace to announce the good news

Soon, these lists fell in front of Yao Wenzhi's desk.

When Yao Wenzhi saw this dense name, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. Over the past five hundred years, the royal family has grown up and gone through countless generations. Now, the Chen family members are even less familiar with ordinary people. How many people are there who have real titles? There are only a few more than 3,000.

In fact, this is impossible. The court wants to support everyone. Can anyone provide for it?

If you can't afford to support yourself, you can only let them make a living. Although you will also give some food, this food is just barely hungry. In recent years, it is not uncommon for people in the clan to steal and get rid of the clan. Why? People are poor and have short ambitions.

Now, this position is in front of you. Who doesn’t want to fight for it? Now you just choose to take the exam in Kyoto and Kinki. If you let all the clans take the exam, it goes without saying that the number of people will increase by more than ten times.

It was originally thought that it was just an exam of hundreds of people, but now there are thousands of people at once, which is extraordinary. Yao Wenzhi ordered the Academy to free up a place, and then formulated the rules for the exam, and then allocated the Jinyiwei and the clan's civil servants to be responsible for the order of the examination room. After all, he was an experienced person, and he was able to get a good test. After all, this scale is far inferior to the importance of the exam, and it will not take much effort. In just a few days, the arrangement was almost the same. At the same time, Yao Wenzhi entered the palace to meet and asked for the titles of several generals.

Because even the palace did not expect that so many clans came to take the exam, they thought it was just a small matter, but now they are making such a big fuss among the clans. At this time, the Empress Dowager wanted to show the grace of the palace, not to mention that these people who came to take the exam were all relatives of the royal family.

Therefore, five generals and ten lieutenants of the state, among them, can be granted titles.

Suddenly, the opportunity grew bigger.

The day of the exam was very lively. Chen Kaizhi and his men maintained order outside the academy. The Jinyiwei wore flying fish uniforms and inspected them back and forth in spirit. Chen Kaizhi was still quite idle. He didn't have to search for the candidates to carry anything, nor did he need to verify the candidates' identity. He just wandered around. Many royal families, especially many, came in public clothes, looked shabby. Chen Kaizhi looked at him from afar, and felt sighing. Both the descendants of Emperor Taizu Gao, were still very different.

As the exam begins, Chen Kaizhi, the deputy chief examiner, did not enter the academy. It seems that the examination has nothing to do with him. Chen Kaizhi doesn't even know what the test questions are. After one exam, the three chief examiners and the deputy chief examiner sealed the test papers, and then the great scholars in the academy were responsible for the review. Because the exam questions are not difficult, for the royal family, it is impossible to ask them using the imperial examination for scholars. These exam questions are just standards for the college examination. If they have the knowledge of a scholar, the chance will be great.

Chen Kaizhi did not mark the papers. At night, he stayed in the school. Yao Wenzhi was sitting there, watching the papers delivered by the reviewer, while Chen Kaizhi was sitting in the ear chamber beside him and was dozing off. Chen Wu seemed to think that Chen Kaizhi had some conspiracy and was sitting here in the name of drinking tea, staring at Chen Kaizhi from time to time.

This made Chen Kaizhi very uncomfortable, but he said that he could not drive Chen Wu away when drinking tea, so he had to let him sit. Anyway, he would do it if he was in the air, so he ignored the rest, so he had to squint his eyes and continue to sleep.

Before he knew it, Chen Kaizhi woke up in the middle of the night, rubbed his eyes sleepily, and asked subconsciously: "When is it?"

The clerk beside him said, "It's past the midday."

Chen Kaizhi said, "I am so ashamed that I have made Mr. Yao and others worry." He stood up and wanted to see how the paper was read.

Chen Wu was also in a daze. When he saw Chen Kaizhi get up, he immediately cheered up and stood up. He was afraid that Chen Kaizhi would have any conspiracy. This guy must have wanted to seize the throne, or cheat for others.

Therefore, Chen Wu was particularly nervous, and his eyes were staring straight at him.

Chen Kaizhi looked at him coldly, pursed his lips, and said nothing. He quickly walked into the hall and saw Yao Wenzhi and the reviewers whispering. Yao Wenzhi looked at Chen Kaizhi and smiled and said, "Kaizhi, you are sleeping soundly. You can't hold on to this volume."

"No." Chen Wu immediately issued an objection: "Like me, Duke Huguo is just the deputy chief examiner, how can I make the decision? Duke Yao has to work harder."

Chen Kaizhi glanced at Chen Wu, then sneered: "If Chen Zongling thinks it is inappropriate, you can mark the papers with me. Shouldn't you be kind to Mr. Yao?"

Chen Wu's face turned green. He had no knowledge. To put it bluntly, he recognized the words, but he was blinded by the article. If he had been memorized with Chen Kaizhi, if he was fooled by him, wouldn't he be laughed at?

So Chen Wu said with a righteous spirit: "Your Majesty must come, otherwise something will happen, it will not be fun. It is difficult to explain in the palace. Moreover, if something is reported, if the royal family in the lower tribes will make a fuss, no one will be able to take care of it."

Yao Wenzhi looked at Chen Wu deeply, shook his head in his heart, as if he was disappointed with Chen Zongling, so he said, "Okay, okay, I'm here in person."

Chen Kaizhi smiled, looked at Chen Wu, stretched his waist before saying lightly: "Then I'll continue to go back to sleep."

Turn around and leave.

Chen Wu immediately followed Chen Kaizhi: "I'll go too."

When it was sunlight, dozens of great scholars, plus Yao Wenzhi, finally finished reading the papers. The door opened. Chen Kaizhi went out to wash and the sealed papers had already been drafted. Yao Wenzhi looked tired, but he had to enter the palace with Chen Kaizhi and Chen Wu.

Chen Wu felt that Chen Kaizhi had no room to intervene in this process, so he felt relieved. He had actually not slept all night and was staring at Chen Kaizhi. Now he felt in a trance. He followed everyone out of the school, sat in the sedan chair and took a nap, and was woken up, saying that he had arrived in the palace.

He suddenly felt his head even more drowsy, as if it was about to crack, but he had to get out of the sedan chair and walk into the palace with Mr. Yao and Chen Kaizhi. After reaching Wanshou Palace, he informed him and met him immediately.

The Empress Dowager was here long ago, but I didn’t expect that Empress Dowager Mu and Prince Wuji were also there.

Prince Wuji was also wearing the shawl given by the Empress Dowager, which was exactly the same as Chen Kaizhi's style. He still looked lazy, with an inadvertent smile on his fair face. He glanced at Chen Kaizhi and nodded slightly. Chen Kaizhi nodded to him.

Then, the three of them saluted and Yao Wenzhi said: "Empress, I am fulfilling my mission. Finally, the exam has ended successfully. I have selected sixteen test papers, all of which are among the best. Please ask the Empress Dowager to take a look."

Prince Wuji stood up, took Yao Wenzhi's test paper politely, and then sent it to the Empress Dowager's desk.

The Empress Dowager's eyes turned slightly, looked at everyone, and then said with a smile: "It is said that many people outside say that this move is a good story. Chen Kaizhi's initiative has made a good fight for the palace; but... I don't know who has the best knowledge today."

She tore open the sealed paper, took the first one, took a look, and then said carelessly: "Chen Yangxin... Who is this Chen Yangxin?"

When Chen Wu heard this, he immediately became furious. This person was the one he thought was the most promising. Unexpectedly, he really got the first place this time. It was really worthy of heaven. He recognized this person and would never have any connection with Chen Kaizhi. Chen Kaizhi's abacus this time would be disappointed.

snort……

Chen Kaizhi has made great calculations, but he still can't calculate that there are such talents among them who can study like this.

It really deserves it. The agency has planned and arranged such a situation, but still has not gotten any advantage.

I wanted to arrange my own people to enter the royal family, but I didn’t even have a door, which was simply delusional.

Chen Wu was very proud when he thought that Chen Kaizhi's plan had failed, so he hurriedly said: "This Chen Yangxin is the third son of Chen Wenhao, a lieutenant of the country. He has been smart since childhood. It is said that he can write poetry at the age of seven. He is also famous among the royal family."

"Since that's the case, then it's him. Let him inherit the title. Tomorrow, let him enter the palace and the Ai family will see him in person." The Empress Dowager nodded and looked at the other test papers: "As for others, they will be awarded titles according to their rankings, and they will also send a report to the world to hear it, and let the people of the world know that even our royal family admires literature so much, this education will be implemented."

Chen Wu was so excited that he hurriedly said, "I will obey the order."

He took the lead and thought to himself that it was dangerous, and he could also give His Highness Zhao a good explanation.

The Empress Dowager glanced at Yao Wenzhi, who was tired, and smiled at him, "I guess the Yao Qing family must be very hard. Thank you all for your hard work, Chen Kaizhi, you have worked hard too."

Chen Kaizhi thought to himself, I was not working hard at all, I slept very well last night. Of course, I didn’t dare to say this, but just said with a smile: “It is natural for me to work harder, but Mr. Yao is old and still works so hard. He is the chief examiner and has a great deal of concern, so he doesn’t dare to neglect for a moment.”

The Empress Dowager looked at Chen Kaizhi with praise, with a satisfied smile on her face, then nodded and said, "Just do it like this, oh, by the way, Wuji said just now that he met you and fell in love with it."
