Zhang Yue cherishes his friendship with Su Shi and Su Che. After all, he was a fan of Su Shi and Wang Anshi before time travel.
Now he and Wang Anshi have the same political views, but the other party doesn't want to see him. He has a good relationship with Ersu, but he will face political differences in the future.
Zhang Yue also understood the worries Su Shi mentioned.
Zhu Yuanzhang killed too many heroes, and the prince couldn't stand it and tried to persuade him. Zhu Yuanzhang took a stick with thorns and asked him to hold it. Zhu Biao didn't dare to hold it. Zhu Yuanzhang told him that if I kill people, I will pull out the stick for you in the future.
prick.
Just when Zhang Yue was thinking this, Han Qi, dressed in purple robe, arrived.
Han Qi was accompanied by Zhang Sheng, the Councilor for Political Affairs, Ouyang Xiu, the Deputy Privy Envoy, and a dozen officials wearing green robes.
"I have met Xianggong Han, Xianggong Zhang and Xianggong Ouyang."
Zhang Yue and the others saluted.
Zhang Yue saw Han Qi again, but he saw that his beard had grown to his chest and was as shiny as silk, his features were handsome, his figure was slim, and he had the delicate bones that scholar-bureaucrats admired.
At a glance, it looks like a high mountain. The place feels very majestic and majestic.
Zhang Sheng and Ouyang Xiu were also important officials in the dynasty, but when it came to style, they were really outshined by Han Qi.
Han Qi smiled gently and said: "I have just met the Holy Judge. Several examiners have taken your papers to ask the Holy Judge. We will find out later. Please wait here for a while."
Su Shi and Su Che both bowed and said yes, and Zhang Yue also showed respect.
Su Shi and Su Che were recommended to Ouyang Xiu by Zhang Fangping. Ouyang Xiu praised them and recommended them to Han Qi, who later appreciated them.
Even Su Zhe, who had always been very upright, was respectful to Han Qi. In the second year of Jiayou, when Han Qi was the privy envoy, Su Zhe wrote to Han Qi for the first time, praising him for being the Duke of Zhou when he was in, Duke Fang when he was out, and Uncle Fang when he was out.
Tiger, but Zhe has not been seen yet.
Su Che was ill before, and Han Qi specially postponed the exam for a month for Su Che.
At the moment, Su Shi, Su Che, and Han Qi were smiling and talking, while Zhang Yue stood by silently. This scene made Ouyang Xiu look at Zhang Yue frequently.
Zhang Yue was also very confused.
Yes, this time it was Han Qi who recommended him to take the public examination, but he knew that Han Qi and Wang Anshi were not only bitter enemies, but also people who would vigorously oppose the reform in the future. Logically speaking, if his political views were in favor of the reform, he could not be like the two.
Su So is so good with Han Qi.
However, it is not yet time for political differences in the future, not to mention that Han Qi is now at the peak of his power and is one step away from becoming the prime minister of Zhaowen.
Su Shi and Su Che were chatting with Han Qi, and Zhang Yue was standing by with a smile on his face.
Anyway, you won’t offend if you don’t fawn over, because generally people won’t fawn over you, but if you can offend people without offending them, it’s better not to offend anyone.
Han Qi looked at Zhang Yue and said, "Look at me, your face is very pale."
Zhang Yue said with a smile: "Back to Han Xianggong, he thought too much about the imperial examination, so his face looked ugly."
Han Qi said with a smile: "You have not ranked first in the imperial examination, so are you still afraid of this imperial examination?"
Zhang Yue said: "Reporting to Mr. Han, how can I not be afraid? I am too afraid."
Han Qi smiled when he heard this, and Ouyang Xiu also breathed a sigh of relief.
Han Qi looked at Zhang Yue and said: "No matter how good the article is, I am afraid there will be no Bole. There is an old saying, a horse has a thousand-mile journey, and it cannot go without a rider; a man has the ambition to reach the sky, but it cannot be done without luck."
Everyone's smiles froze when they heard this, knowing that there was something in Han Qi's words.
"But with such talent, you are not allowed to have such worries."
After hearing Han Qi's profound words, Zhang Yue said respectfully: "Thank you, Mr. Han, for your advice."
Han Qi laughed loudly when he heard this, patted Zhang Yue on the shoulder and left.
Zhang Yue's forehead was covered with sweat.
Brothers Su Shi and Su Che watched Han Qi leave with admiration.
Su Shi said: "Xiangong Han is truly a perfect man in this world."
Zhang Yue was speechless after hearing this.
At this moment, in the banquet hall, examiners such as Hu Su, Sima Guang, and Yang Tian were holding the examination papers of Zhang Yue, Su Shi, and Su Che for the officials to read.
The official, wearing a plain robe, read each article one by one and asked, "What do the examiners think?"
Hu Su said: "I think that Su Shi and Zhang Yue each have their own merits in their articles. It is difficult to say that the selection of any of the three is fair. As for Su Che's outrageous remarks, he should give up."
Sima Guang said: "Your Majesty, I have different opinions from Examiner Hu. Zhang Yue and Su Shi are both young and knowledgeable people. When making policies, they all use high-level rhetoric, unparalleled ethics, and talk about the current affairs of the world.
It's also a three-point analysis, but the two of them said that one is to adhere to Confucianism and Legalism, and the other is to focus on Legalism. In my opinion, it is better to follow the teachings of the saints."
"As for Su Che, although the article is urgent and has some unflattering words, his selection shows that the Holy Lord is tolerant of the world and accepts advice and uses the virtuous. I think that not only should this person be selected, but he should also be placed in the third class to encourage scholars.
wind."
Yang Tian also said: "Su Che's words were fierce, but if your majesty tolerated him and ordered historians to record it and compile it into the history of the country, these ministers would think that it would be a grand event for the imperial court and that his majesty's benevolence would be praised for generations to come.
"
Cai Xiang and Fan Zhen both opposed it and believed that Su Che should not go.
However, Zhao Zhen said: "I already know what several Qing family members have said. I have always been happy when I heard it, and I don't hide my faults when I know them. As for temporary merits and demerits, it is not something that a scholar can decide in a few words. In the future, it will still be left to the historians to write down
Of."
"Su Che is very talented and cannot be buried. But placing him in the third class is too much. The fourth class is just fine."
Zhao Zhen Jinkou Yujian, finally wrote a four-character word on Su Zhe's paper.
In the end, the papers of Su Shi and Zhang Yue were left in front of Zhao Zhen.
Zhao Zhen smiled and said: "These two people are both prodigies of the world. If one is chosen as the third class, it means that the other person is demoted. I really can't bear it. It's just that there is a big fuss between the two houses. It seems that I am afraid that I will give two
If it is the third level, the system of generals will be indiscriminate."
Zhao Zhen picked up Su Shi's paper and said: "The two Kunzhong brothers of the Su family are very good. The elder brother Wen Gai was in the world, and the younger brother's writing skills are unparalleled. They can be used to highlight articles and become good stories in the future."
At this time Hu Su said: "Your Majesty, I heard that Zhang Yue also has an elder brother who is also very good. His talent is not inferior to that of Su Shi and Su Che."
Zhao Zhen said in surprise: "Zhang Yue also has an elder brother, why haven't I heard of him?"
Hu Sudao: "According to legend, Zhang Dun, the fifth person to become a Jinshi in the fourth year of Jiayou's reign, was Zhang Yue's brother. He later adopted him to the Zhang family in Suzhou."
Zhao Zhen laughed when he heard this and said, "I remember Zhang Dun and Zhang Zihou."
"His articles in the Imperial Examination are very sharp, and his younger brother is good at seeing things. These two brothers are interesting. They will both be ministers of the country in the future. Very good, very good."
When the officials met, they seemed to have a good impression of Zhang Dun.
The two brothers Su Shi and Su Che, and over there are the two brothers Zhang Dun and Zhang Yue.
Finally, Song Renzong used his imperial pen to write a character each on Su Shi and Zhang Yue's papers.
Several examiners immediately stepped forward to hold the papers and then exited the banquet hall.
In fact, the names of the three people were unknown on the paper, but there were only three candidates, and the writing styles of the three were very different, so you could tell who wrote whose article without having to read the names.
Hu Su got Su Shi's paper, and the emperor himself wrote the word "三" on it.
Everyone thought that the holy will really lies in Su Shi, and when they saw Zhang Yue's paper, everyone was shocked.
But Zhang Yue's paper was clearly written with the word "三" in red pen.
