Many of Ouyang Xiu's opinions reached Long Hong's ears through Long Qijin's mouth, and were recognized by Long Hong.
Long Hong even thought those ideas were Long Qijin's, so he used Long Qijin more seriously.
"Ouyang Xiu has always been indifferent to political affairs."
Long Jingkuang heard some thoughts from Dongfang Lian's words.
He knew that Ouyang Xiu was not simple... But, hadn't Ouyang Xiu always ignored political affairs? Even if he took the imperial examination, he would never have imagined that the test would be on the ten principles of governing the country...
"You'll know just by looking at it. It only takes three days for the results to be released..."
…
Long Jingkuang could not wait more than three days.
That same day, he entered the palace and saw ten papers placed on Long Hong's desk.
Long Jingkuang knew that these were the top ten selected. The ranking of the top ten, especially the first place, needed Long Hong's approval, while the other places could be decided by the examiner.
There are thirty people admitted this time, and they will all be reused to a certain extent. However, all the other ten people will be sent to other places, and only the top ten will stay in Phoenix City.
The top three can be reused, and their official positions are all second grade or above.
The first place is the most important, and it is possible to become a close minister of the emperor. The first grade.
"Grandpa Huang."
Outside the royal study, no one stopped Long Jingkuang. He walked in smoothly and stood next to Long Hong.
"Jing'er, Grandpa Huang is about to send someone to call you. Come, take a look, this Ouyang Xiu... is really good. I thought that no student would do well in this question. But this Ouyang
Your Majesty really shines in my eyes."
"..."
When Long Jingkuang heard this, he already got the answer without looking at what Ouyang Xiu had written.
Long Hong has been ruling the country for more than 20 years. He is a wise and powerful monarch. Who is wrong in the people he likes?
Long Jingkuang took the paper handed over by Long Hong and saw that it had Ouyang Xiu's handwriting written on it.
You can tell who he is by looking at his characters. When you look at Ouyang Xiu's characters, you know he is an extraordinary person.
Looking at his argument again, although the ten principles for governing the country he proposed may not be implemented one by one because of the great resistance, each of them can make the people of Huang Kingdom live a better life.
Especially when it comes to agricultural farming, it is not an ordinary tax reduction or exemption, but a proposal to improve production tools to increase people's harvests.
He was not just a slogan, but he drew a picture and listed three effective production tools. This one alone is a proposal supported by the whole country. There is really no reason to veto it.
"If this farming tool is really effective, Ouyang Xiu's innovation will definitely be famous throughout the ages. It will be beyond the reach of many monarchs. In the torrent of history, in the writings of historians, many monarchs have made merits and demerits, but
Those who have changed people's lives and made people's lives better can be praised throughout the ages. Jing'er, Grandpa Huang won't say more. But there is one thing. If you really inherit the Huang Kingdom in the future, you must reuse it no matter what.
Ouyang Xiu."
"He is indeed...a talent."
At this moment, Long Jingkuang had to look at Ouyang Xiu differently.
Long Hong added, "Originally, there was a palace examination mechanism for the top three. However, now it seems that they are superior and inferior. It is clear at a glance. Besides, I have watched this child grow up, and he is also a very good child.
