"It doesn't matter..." After the last blow, Zhao Yunrang became calmer.╱

o.ooo I just heard him say calmly: "Uncle Ouyang Yong, he is the kind of loyal minister taught by Confucius." After a pause, he couldn't help but said: "To put it bluntly, he is foolish and loyal. This is the reason why the official chose him.
This kind of person is better as an examiner than the kind of person who adapts to the wind..." He waved his hands and said: "It's no longer possible, let's all leave.".
The phrase "many sons, many grandchildren, many enemies" often appeared in the old prince's mind. Now that he saw so many sons hanging around in front of him, he felt annoyed.
The sons quickly stood up, saluted, and filed out. After walking out of his father's study, Zhao Zonghui was about to go back to his residence... His Boyixuan was sealed, and now he can only live in the palace. But it is still better than Lao Shiliu,
Zhao Zonghan was sent to Yanzhou for custody, and he did not know when he would be able to return home.
But someone stopped him and said, "Third brother, come to my place for tea."
He didn't need to look back to know that it was Old Thirteen. Zhao Zonghui laughed and said: "It's an honor." But he sneered in his heart, this guy will never show his courtesy for nothing, he will be so enthusiastic when he uses you.
Looking back, he saw that in addition to Thirteen, there was also the Fourth, and he knew that they were going to talk about something shady again.
The three of them arrived at Zhao Zongshi's study, the study of the most outstanding clan member of the Song Dynasty. It was called a "stinky chess basket for playing chess", except for books. Apart from that, there were only the simplest tables and chairs, and the four treasures of the study on the table.
It is also the most common item.
For a dignified prince to be so shabby, he is pretending too much. This is why he doesn't want to come here... Brother, are you too into the drama?
After sitting down, Zhao Zongshi took out the tea box and asked someone to make tea, but Zhao Zonghui waved his hand and said: "I can't stand your coarse tea, so I'd better ask someone to bring me my Xiaolong Tuan."
"This is Xiaolongtuan." Zhao Zongshi said: "You gave it to me last year, and it's still here."
"I'm talking about Thirteenth Brother. Can't you be nicer to yourself?" Zhao Zonghui couldn't hold it back and said, "You just want to eat and drink, and no one else will see you."
"After more than ten years of hard work, I have become accustomed to it." Zhao Zongshi said lightly: "You allow me to have good food and clothing, but I am not used to it."
"As expected of Thirteen, I'm vulgar." Zhao Zonghui said submissively: "Tell me, why are you looking for me?"
"Let me ask, how are you arranging that matter?" Zhao Zongshi pondered for a while. Fang said: "Why hasn't there been any movement yet?"
"What is it?" Zhao Zonghui was stunned when he was asked, and it took him a while to react and said: "The one whose surname you are talking about is Chen?"
"Yes." Zhao Zongshi nodded. Zhao Zongfu on the side said softly: "I see it more and more clearly. He is the backbone of Zhao Zongji. Regardless of old grudges, he cannot be admitted to the Jinshi."
"That's a fool!" Zhao Zonghui said with anger on his face: "This guy has made our family lose money. Sooner or later, he will be killed! How can we let him bless this layer of divine light to protect the body?"
"It turns out you haven't forgotten." Zhao Zongshi sighed softly and said, "I thought you could take action earlier. Now the examiner is actually his teacher. I'm afraid he is a sure winner as a Jinshi."
"I'll pry it off for him even if he nails it." Zhao Zonghui snorted coldly: "It's not that I didn't want to start early, it's because my father strictly ordered me not to provoke him again, and he also fought with those officials who have relations with our family.
He said hello and refused to provide us with any more conveniences, which is why he has been so careless until now."
"Yes, that guy said that an official is not an official. He is also a famous figure among the scholars, and it is difficult to mess with him on both sides." Zhao Zongfu also sighed and said: "The key point is that our father is scared, and he can't even do this.
The minor characters are not allowed to move. It is really overkill."
"If everything is foolproof, we still have to do something." Zhao Zongshi said slowly. Most of his hatred for Chen Ke came from Zhao Zongji... The official actually listened to Han Qi's bad idea and actually opened a sect school in the palace.
But instead of just selecting a few elites to teach, young people from the royal family can enroll in the school and listen to the lectures. It is also promised that as long as they are successful in their studies, they will be released. This makes the captive clans very excited and they memorize it for their children one after another.
Put on your little school bag and go to school.
Zhao Zongshi is twenty-six years old this year and is the father of several children. He really doesn’t want to lose this person, but Zhao Zongji’s son is gone, so he has to go. Every day he goes in and out, sneaking around the wall, lest he encounters him.
An acquaintance asked: "Go to school, little prince..." This kind of study is a kind of torture every day. Especially when I think about what should be my own, now I have to compete in such a disgusting way.
He had the urge to kill someone.
He couldn't kill Zhao Zongji, so he had to take out his anger on his lackey Chen Ke. Of course, with the protection of the imperial guards, he couldn't even kill Chen Ke, but if he could make him fail, he would be happier than killing that guy.
"Thirteen, don't worry, I have actually made arrangements." Zhao Zonghui lowered his voice and confessed to his two younger brothers...
"What a simple strategy," Zhao Zongshi couldn't help but praise: "But it really underestimated its weakness and struck a fatal blow!"
"It's a very accurate shot. If you hit him, he will definitely be dead." Even conspirators like Zhao Zongfu praised: "The third brother can indeed come up with clever plans occasionally."
"Fuck you." Zhao Zonghui scolded: "I made a mistake last time because I didn't pay attention to him. If I pay attention to him this time, I will naturally not make another mistake."
"Yes." Zhao Zongshi nodded and said, "Third brother is going to avenge his shame this time."
"Haha..." Zhao Zongfu smiled and said seriously: "The key point is, is that person unreliable? If he is exposed, will he pull you out?"
"No." Zhao Zonghui shook his head and said: "His younger brother was originally from the gangster Fan Lou. Later, when he died in that scene, he hated Chen deeply. If he had a chance to take revenge this time, he wouldn't even ask.
Who am I? You just don’t want to involve me?" He paused and said, "Besides, even if he is found out, it will be after he is finished. Who cares about a guy whose reputation has been ruined?"
"Yeah." Zhao Zongshi looked at Zhao Zongfu, and when he saw him nodding, he nodded and said, "Okay, that's it!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In that room, Brother Zhao Zongshi was plotting. Here, Ouyang Xiu put on his official uniform and hurried out following Hu Yandui under the protection or surveillance of the imperial guards.
The purpose of the trip was tacitly understood by both parties, and soon they arrived at the inner palace and the outer hall of Chui Gong Hall. They saw Wang Gui, a Hanlin scholar, Mei Zhi, a direct scholar of Longtuge, Han Jiang, Zhizhigao, and Jixian Hall.
More than 50 officials including Xiuzhuan Fanzhen and Imperial College Zhiliu Mei Yaochen have been brought here respectively.
After everyone met, they only bowed slightly and didn't say much. Manager Hu said to everyone: "Everyone, please wait a moment. Let's go in and report."
After a while, the official summoned him, and all the ministers filed in. They saw Zhao Zhen, the emperor of the Song Dynasty, wearing a very formal crimson gauze robe, a square heart-shaped collar on his neck, and a crown that reached the sky on his head. This outfit was only worn during the New Year's Day.
Officials only wear it when they go to court. In normal times, officials wear futou and scarlet robes, which is no different from ministers.
Now it seems that it is true that people rely on clothes, and Buddha relies on gold. The solemnly dressed Zhao Zhen is a little less gentle and a little more imperial, making people dare not make mistakes.
After the courtiers saluted, the eunuch read out the imperial edict. Sure enough, it was a ceremony for recruiting talents in Jinke. The officials appointed Hanlin bachelor Ouyang Xiuquan to Zhi Gongju; Wang Gui, Hanlin bachelor, and Mei Zhi, direct bachelor of Longtuge, Zhizhi
Gao Han Jiang, Jixian Hall compiled and compiled the tribute of the four human rights officials in Fanzhen.
In addition to being the chief and deputy examiner, he also ordered Mei Yaochen, the direct lecturer of the Imperial College, and 16 other examiners to be the examination paper examiners.
Guan Ge was ordered to collate Zhang Dong, and Wang Lie was appointed as the examiner.
Zhang Shiyan, Liu Tan, Li Changyan, Sun Gu, and Cui Taifu were ordered to serve as examiners for various subjects.
Directly named Jixian Yuan Zuwuzai, Jixian School manages money, public auxiliary examination, tribute, officials, relatives, and people.
In addition, two seal officials were appointed; two gate officers of the Gongyuan Courtyard; three seal officials; and twenty-seven officials in related fields were appointed.
The specific date for the Provincial Examination to lock the academy, introduce the test, and release the results was also announced. The lock-up will be today, ten days later on the 18th day of the first lunar month, the exam will be announced, and the results will be released in early mid-February, and Etai Academy will be called as a tribute academy.
In addition to the appointment and date, the examiner's regulations were also explained as usual: First, the courtyard should be locked to prevent requests for requests. The examiners should be locked in the Gongyuan from the date of appointment to the day when the results are released to prevent requests for requests.
Second, don't try to avoid relatives' suspicion. That is, the examiner's relatives should set up a separate examination room, and the "examination knows the tribute, recommends the official, relatives and recommends the people" to take the examination.
There are also various examination room disciplines, which are numerous and not listed in detail.
After the examiner received the order, the official encouraged the examiners again, saying that the scientific examination is the country's talent promotion ceremony, which is related to the selection of talents, national prosperity and political stability. It must be fair to select candidates, and it must be fair.
We must be public-minded and not be partial to others.
After repeating the old tune, all the officials withdrew and were escorted directly to Taixue Suoyuan by the imperial guards. However, Ouyang Xiu, the examiner, was left alone by the officials.
Zhao Zhen stood up and walked to Ouyang Xiu. He no longer gave any routine lectures, but said earnestly: "The ancients said that you can raise an army for a thousand days and use it for a while. I called Aiqing back for three years just to use it on this field."
"I will be impartial and selfless, and I will select scholars fairly for the country!" Ouyang Xiu had woken up from the glory of becoming the examiner, bowed deeply and said, "I swear in the name of my ancestors."
"It doesn't have to be like this." The official shook his head and said with a smile: "You were a Jinshi in the eighth year of Tiansheng. At that time, I was only twenty years old. After so many years of ups and downs, I still don't know who your Uncle Ouyang Yong is?"
Ouyang Xiu was moved. He could tell that the official was trying to get into his heart this time, so he held his breath and concentrated even more.
"It's been twenty-eight years. You are over fifty, and I am about to know your destiny." Zhao Zhen looked at Ouyang Xiu, who was older than his actual age, and sighed: "Uncle Yong, we are all old..."
