The look of disappointment in the eyes of the official surnamed Huang flashed away. He really wanted Han Du to be lucky and deny it. As long as Han Du denied it, he would naturally have a way to prove that Han Du was lying and let him deal with this matter.
Consider it to be the upper hand.
However, he did not expect that Han Du would admit it so simply.
Fortunately, it was not that he had no backup plan. Even Han Du admitted that he also had backup plans.
I saw the official surnamed Huang bowing to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, the examination papers of the academic examination are indeed the secrets of the imperial court. Han Du brought the examination papers to the academy in such a big way, which inevitably leads to the suspicion of malpractice. Please send officials to the emperor.
Conduct a thorough investigation and give an explanation to all the scholars in the world."
He didn't wait for Lao Zhu to speak, and he couldn't wait for Lao Zhu to speak at this time. If Han Du didn't stand up and speak out immediately and just waited, he would be waiting to die.
"Your Majesty, I have indeed brought the examination papers to the academy. But this has nothing to do with this examination. The questions in the undergraduate examination are completely different from the past ones. I took the examination papers just because I wanted to
The students in the academy are just admiring the style of their ancestors' articles." As he said this, Han Du raised his head and looked at the official named Huang, and asked coldly: "Students are eager to learn, does Mr. Huang think this is wrong?"
As long as the man surnamed Huang dares to say that he is wrong, then Han Du can stand on the commanding heights of public opinion and beat him. Being quick and eager to learn is what the saints advocate. If even the eagerness to learn is wrong, wouldn't it be true?
Do you think even the saints are wrong?
Sages are naturally infallible, so the only one who is wrong is this person surnamed Huang.
Moreover, many of the people who took the academic high school examination in the past are now officials standing in Fengtian Hall. Their examination papers can be taken away by Han Du and let the academicians look up to them, and their faces will also be bright.
If the man surnamed Huang said this was wrong, he would instantly offend half of the officials above the court, and how could he get any good results from him?
The official surnamed Huang also realized the power of Han Du's words. He was speechless for a moment and couldn't think of any reasonable rebuttal.
When Lao Zhu saw Han Du starting to fight back, he couldn't help but smile on his face. This was the Han Du he knew. Don't look at Han Du who always smiles at everyone, even when facing farmers, he always smiles.
, the appearance of being friendly and making money. But Lao Zhu knew that if anyone thought that Han Du was nothing more than this and easy to bully, then he would definitely suffer a big loss.
This is what happened to the man named Huang now. Han Du turned his army against him and was unable to dismount from the tiger.
Han Du didn't give Huang a chance at all, and he wouldn't wait for him just because he couldn't think of anything to refute.
Bowing to Lao Zhu, Han Du said: "Things cannot be explained clearly, and the reasons cannot be clearly understood. Whether the scholars in the academy have real talents or knowledge, or whether they are just superficial, we will know once the emperor summons them to confront them."
Strictly speaking, Han Du's pre-examination training for scholars was indeed a form of cheating. However, this practice did not violate the national laws of the Ming Dynasty.
This is a kind of physical cheating, a dimensionality reduction attack.
Physics cheats are the most deadly. Han Du did not want to leak the topic to them as Huang and others thought. Instead, he directly let these scholars know what logic is and what the organization of an article is. This is an improvement in nature.
Scholars are knowledgeable, so they are not afraid of confrontation.
The official surnamed Huang didn't know where Han Du's confidence came from, but since Han Du had said it for his own sake, he couldn't object.
It is even more impossible to object. If he continues to object, wouldn't it mean that his words are untenable and he is making trouble unreasonably?
"What do Huang Aiqing think?" Lao Zhu saw that Han Du took the initiative and nodded in agreement. This is the last resort. Since it is unavoidable, let's face it calmly.
But after Lao Zhu agreed, he was still angry that Huang was looking for trouble, so he asked him deliberately.
The seemingly respectful question made the officer surnamed Huang suddenly sweat dripping down his back.
Everyone knew that the emperor was angry with him. It seemed that he was respecting the official surnamed Huang's inquiry, but in fact he was asking him, "Do I also want to listen to you?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." The official surnamed Huang quickly flattered the emperor, but flattering him at this time made Lao Zhu feel sick and nauseated.
"However, I think that there are so many people in the Academy High School, and there are many who have real talents, but there are also some who cheated their way to high school. I think that we can start from the tenth place and randomly check the relevant scholars one by one."
Starting from the tenth place, this is the last stubbornness of Huang. There is no way, Wang Yuanji's article has now spread all over the capital. How could such an eloquent article be written by fraud? Everyone is reading the article.
From now on, no one will deny Wang Yuanji’s true talent and learning.
Even the official surnamed Huang does not think that Wang Yuanji is not talented enough. If the emperor recruits Wang Yuanji all at once, then no matter how the emperor tests Wang Yuanji, he will definitely answer fluently. This is no doubt.
, then wouldn’t he be finished?
Therefore, the official surnamed Huang wanted to avoid the top few and start random inspections from the tenth. He didn't believe it. The scholars in the academy were all bold people, and none of them had stage fright?
Lao Zhu naturally understood at a glance what the man named Huang was thinking, and he was unwilling to let Han Du suffer in this matter.
He didn't agree directly, but turned to look at Han Du and asked Han Du what he meant with his eyes.
After hearing what Huang said, Han Du's expression became extremely strange, as if he had thought of something very interesting. When he saw Lao Zhu looking at him, he quickly nodded with a smile and said, "Your Majesty, I think it's okay."
Since Han Du said it was okay, Lao Zhu naturally had no other ideas and said in a deep voice: "Then call the tenth person from the undergraduate examination to the palace to see him."
"Xuan, Ding Mao, who ranked tenth in the joint examination, comes to see you."
Outside the Fengtian Palace, fast horses were ordered to go out to convey the emperor's will.
Not long after the meal, a eunuch came in and knelt down, bowed his head and said: "Back to the emperor, Zhu Muxin, who was ranked tenth in the Ding Mao Ke Examination, is asking for an audience outside the palace."
Hearing that the person's surname was Zhu, Lao Zhu was quite surprised. He didn't expect that he would be my family member. However, this family member was able to get the tenth place in the exam this time, which is already amazing enough.
In this subject examination, there were originally several scholars in the Imperial College who had hopes of winning the title. Even before the examination started, there were doctors from the Imperial College bragging to others that the candidates for this subject examination were still from their Imperial College.
The Imperial College has enough strength to say this. In the past, the Imperial College has indeed taken over Huiyuan many times. And this time, in the eyes of the Imperial College, these people are even more powerful than before. There are even doctors who feel pity for these people.
, saying that if they were not in the same subject and participated in the examination, if they could be separated, each of them would have great hope of becoming a Huiyuan.
But after the imperial list came out, these people just barely climbed into the second class, shocking everyone's eyes.
After all the examination papers were made public and a few words spread, the scholars gradually began to say that this examination was the most difficult subject in the past years.
"Passed." Lao Zhu said with a faint smile, and even couldn't help but sit up straight, braced himself and prepared to see what kind of master he was, who could actually have the talent of Huiyuan.
The old eunuch waved his fly whisk and shouted loudly: "It is said that Ding Maoke ranked tenth in the joint examination. Zhu Muxin comes to see you~"
Outside the Fengtian Hall, at the bottom of the steps, a man wearing a green shirt from the academy, with an upright body and a calm expression on his face, was climbing up the steps.
If the person named Huang saw the expression on this person's face, he would definitely be disappointed, because this person didn't show any timidity at all. He just stepped through the gate of Fengtian Palace and came to the power center of the Ming Empire, the center of the world.
After seeing the person clearly, all the officials could no longer calm down, unlike the person's calm expression.
"How is this going?"
"Yes, why is it His Highness Prince Tan?"
"Isn't it said that you can test for the tenth place? Is it true that your highness can test for the tenth place?"
"How is this possible? I heard that His Highness Prince Tan behaves quite well and is a little eccentric. When did you hear that His Highness Prince Tan is good at studying?"
"Yes, but if His Highness King Tan wants to help Han Du, it is not impossible." With Zhu Zi's temper, it is not impossible to go to Fengtian Palace to make a fuss.
The officials looked at Zhu Zi who was walking forward step by step, their faces full of surprise, and they couldn't help but whisper.
"My son, I pay homage to my father." Zhu Zi strode up to His Majesty Dan and knelt down.
Lao Zhu also looked wonderful. He also thought that this careless son was here to stand up for Han Du. If at other times and other places, Zhu Zi made such a fuss, Lao Zhu would at most punish him.
Fan, it's a big deal to give him a few mouths and then ground him.
But where is this now? Fengtian Palace. How can it be a place where Zhu Zi can fool around?
If Zhu Zi starts acting up here today, even Lao Zhu will have to punish him severely.
"What are you doing here? Is this a place where you can mess around? Why don't you back down!" After saying that, Lao Zhu glared at Han Du bitterly, thinking that it was Han Du's fault.
But after Zhu Zi heard this, he laughed dryly, raised his head apologetically and said, "But my father, didn't my father summon his ministers here?"
"When did I summon you?" Lao Zhu immediately asked angrily. As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Zhu Zi’s tone and meaning
"You said I summoned you? Are you Zhu Muxin? You ranked tenth in the undergraduate examination!" Lao Zhu suddenly realized, what the hell Zhu Muxin, isn't Muxin Zi?
Zhu Muxin is Zhu Zi!
At this moment, everyone reacted. First they looked at Zhu Zi, who was standing in the middle, in shock, and then they all looked weird.
Originally, most officials would not believe that academicians cheated, but Wang Yuanji's article really amazed everyone, and these officials had to be amazed and convinced. Even they, even if there is no time limit, they can't do it
Such a beautiful article.
Wen Wu is the first!
Ever since Wang Yuanji's article was circulated, not many officials have wanted to compete with it. However, until now, no one has been able to write a comparable article.
