Chapter 236 Make troubles and hit the head
Chapter 236: Causing troubles, a blow
During the year of the Grand Competition, the emperor was a Jinshi in Fengtian Palace, which has always been a grand event. Although most Jinshis dare not really look up and peep at the heavenly face, it was the opportunity to meet the emperor and the beginning of their glory in their lives. Early in the morning, hundreds of Jinshi gathered outside Fengtian Gate, each of them was extremely excited, and no one cared about the same year around them, so Xu Zhenqing, whose right hand was lowered, naturally did not attract any attention.
After entering Fengtian Palace to meet the emperor, Emperor Hongzhi stepped down after the court announced the test questions and stepped down. Then the candidates sat down one after another. As soon as Xu Zhenqing and others sent out the answer sheet and draft paper, they took out the plywood prepared in the exam basket and clamped their right hand with the skillful movements they had been practicing these days.
Only a few people know about his name until now, Zhu Houzhao, the Crown Prince of Hongzhi, Xiao Jing and Sun Hong, and all the big guys were confused and ignorant. At this moment, an official in the prison examination next to him saw his appearance and couldn't help but step forward and scolded, "What's wrong with your hand?"
"Report to my master, I accidentally broke my hand before."
As soon as these words were said, the official was stunned, and then he lowered his face and said, "Imperial Palace Examination, how can you be so kind? Why didn't you report it before?"
"Sir, there is no rule in the palace examination. If you break your hand, you can't get the test. Besides, I didn't miss the ceremony when I saw the emperor before. Now I put on a plyboard just to write an article. I beg you for the convenience of the adults."
Someone who returned to his hometown because of sudden sorrow in the palace examination was almost unheard of. For a moment, the official suddenly hesitated. Thinking of Xu Zhenqing's sincere attitude, it was really unlucky to encounter such a thing. Although he frowned, he finally nodded faintly. When Xu Zhenqing wrote quickly, he quietly returned to the ranks of several prison officials and whispered the incident just now. Most of the people sighed, and only a few officials of the subject exchanged glances.
The two examinees were held by the two examiners in the same group. The lineup of the palace examination reading officers has always been extremely luxurious. The three elders of the cabinet, Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and Xie Qian, were one of them, and the six Shangpiao Astronomy defeated all the famous officials of Hongzhi. Although this is not the case, the results of the palace examination can be guaranteed to be fair and fair, at least they can be rewarded by this series of ministers to present to the imperial examination, and their level is not much different.
However, as soon as the Tian Palace Examination ended, several impeachments were suddenly sent to the center, and they arrived at the desk of the Silijian. The eunuch, the chief eunuch of the Silijian, was the most important moment in the palace examination. Don’t disturb the old people, but Li Rong insisted that the matter was important and the two could not stop fighting each other. Li Rong held these bullets and pulled Wang Yue, who was in charge of the East Factory, and went straight to the imperial front.
After reporting the briefs of the chapters one by one between Emperor Hongzhi, Li Rong raised his head and said, "Emperor, the palace examination is a national ceremony for materials, and to obtain virtuousness must be the first priority. Xu Zhenqing, as a tribute scholar, had a conflict with people in the street, so he broke his hand, but he deliberately deceived him during the palace examination and went to a plywood to participate in the palace examination, which was a big loss of morality. Moreover, this person had a close relationship with Tang Yin, who was dismissed by the emperor in the 12th year of Hongzhi, and his poor character can be seen..."
Li Rong said a lot, and Emperor Hongzhi frowned for a moment, but what he thought of was Zhu Houzhao's proud answer when he asked Zhu Houzhao why he came up with such ideas on Queen Zhang's Qianqiu Festival and where those poems came from.
"Father, I'm giving my son's minister as a gift to my mother. That was Xu Xun's idea. My son's thought about it just right. But the idea of wishing my father's birthday for thousands of years was what my mother thought. Originally, the mother's most concerned thing was the son's minister and the father... No, it was the father's minister and the son's minister. She didn't care about other things outside her body! As for the Yuefu, it was Xu Xun who asked someone to write it, and what was called Xu Zhenqing, Gusu, by the way, my son's minister was afraid that the person who wrote the poem would be misconducted and desecrated the mother's queen's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's idea was that Gu Dayong and Gu Dayong took someone to check all his ancestors' eight generations. Gu Dayong told me that Xu Zhenqing learned literature from Wu Kuan in his early years and learned calligraphy from Li Yingzhen..."
Therefore, although Li Rong asked Wang Yue to report all the proceeds from Dongchang's investigation, Emperor Hongzhi chewed while listening and found that it was completely different from what he had heard from Zhu Houzhao before. He couldn't help but gradually lower his face, and at the end he suddenly said coldly: "Wang Yue, Dongchang is idle and has nothing to do, but he actually went to inquire about a mere tribute?"
Wang Yue and Li Rong have always had a good relationship, so Li Rong often sent Dongchang's men to do something beyond their authority, so Wang Yue agreed. At this time, the emperor suddenly started to blame him. He was shocked and immediately knelt down in fear. After a while, he said: "Emperor, I just heard that Xu Zhenqing was taking the exam with him, so I was afraid that this person would be quarreling with others outside and damage his body, and his character was not bad..."
"You are so brave!"
Although Li Rong usually relied on his holy grace, he couldn't help but feel afraid when he saw the emperor getting angry, and he didn't dare to really push all of these on Wang Yue's head. He knelt down and said, "The emperor calmed down. It was all slaves who saw that there were more and more impeachments, so he took his own initiative to ask Wang Yue's people to check..."
"What a self-righteous decision! It would be fine if you really find out the truth. The words are untrue, and confuse black and white!" Emperor Hongzhi, who rarely gets close to the eunuch, threw out the memorials, and angrily agreed to Sun Hong's order to the Qianqing Palace beside him, "Sun Hong, you go to the Beizhenfu Department and Ye Guang to pass on my oral orders, and restrict him to report the origin of the tribute scholar Xu Zhenqing before the Jin Palace. Please hurry!"
Seeing Sun Hong left for a moment, Li Rong on the ground felt trembling in his heart, not knowing where the emperor's thunder came from. However, Emperor Hongzhi had no intention of explaining at all, and then said lightly: "It would be fine if Ye Guang had investigated almost the same as Dongchang, otherwise, the Dongchang should have carefully rectified it! The corruption case of Hongzhi for twelve years has been so many years, and he still came up with a message. Do you think this method of causing trouble can fool me?"
"Damn it!"
Faced with this rare harsh words, both Li Rong and Wang Yue bowed their heads all the time, and they dared not make a statement. Although the two were finally able to escape from the Qianqing Palace, there were still many Qianqing Palaces present who agreed, and the news of the two top big wives being blamed was revealed in a moment. When the news reached the ears of the Sili Supervisor Xiao Jing, he remembered the news that Xu Xun had asked Ruisheng to hand over in advance. Although he only smiled and said nothing, he was very happy in his heart. When the news reached Chengqian Palace, Liu Jin and Gu Dayong were so happy. Gu Dayong even pulled Liu Jin and had a drink.
"Now, let's see how Wang Yue can be more arrogant. Xu Xun is still having many tricks. If this continues, the reopening of the West Factory will definitely not be far away. At that time, Lao Liu, we won't have to look at Lao Wang Yue's face anymore!"
"Okay, I'll wait for that day!" Liu Jin said this, but he couldn't help but wonder. It was just an insignificant tribute, but it caused such a storm. The prince sent Gu Dayong to inquire about Xu Zhenqing's details. But when Xu Xun said that he would tell Gu Dayong to tell Gu Dayong that inquiring about the news, he might as well not let go of all the advantages and disadvantages. He still felt dissatisfied. Now it seems that this prince has really become a spirit!
When Jiao Fang learned that Li Rong and Wang Yue in the palace were scolded by the emperor, it was already the time to come to an end. Unexpectedly, such a sudden change occurred, and he felt caught off guard for a moment, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure out why the situation turned so sharply. However, what made him even more shocked and angry was still behind.
Those censors actually won the public because of their unfounded evidence of the matter. Some were fined from three to six months, while others were demoted to foreign officials!
Because of this, Li Rong was temporarily ill and recuperated in his private house! Jiao Fang's eyes and ears in the palace mostly rely on this extremely qualified Silijian, and two of those censors were his confidants. Both of them were demoted to foreign officials. He immediately lost his wife and his army!
So, when the Golden Palace was about to pass the rite, although he stood in the hall with great energy, he still felt a burst of resentment and anger when he heard the songs one by one. When a familiar name suddenly came into his ears, he felt that he was shocked. If it weren't for the years of experience in Chaoyi, he would have almost turned his head and saw clearly the nameless scholar who had insulted his father and son and caused him to suffer heavy losses.
As the real initiator, Xu Xun was not the case that the palace examination was released on this day, just sent a Jinliu to go there like the previous test results. He gave the government army avant-garde for half a day off and invited Wang Shouren to look at the list together.
When we arrived at the place, most of the crowds were watching the fun and relatives and friends of various families. However, the real new Jinshi had to listen to the rankings in Fengtian Palace. It was not surprising that he fainted on the spot because he had poor psychological quality.
He was already aware of the series of changes in the palace, and naturally he was in a good mood. Now that he was waiting for the list, he joked to Wang Shouren: "Brother Wang, you have participated in the Golden Palace Tour. What was your mood when you heard your name?"
"I..." Thinking of the first palace audition, Wang Shouren couldn't help but squint his eyes in disbelief, and then sighed softly, "Of course I was happy at that time. Being able to win the second place in the second place is worthwhile. Compared to my father's top scorer back then, my ranking is really not worth mentioning."
The sixth place in the second grade is the seventh place in the country, isn’t that worth mentioning?
