I am the cook, but I am Li Er's son-in-law

Chapter 689 Shangshi Bureau is Busy

Your Majesty wants to personally examine these Jinshi?
The official from the Ministry of Officials was stunned for a moment, and soon he thought about it, what did Li Shimin mean by saying that he was going to take the school exam, but he was actually paving the way for His Royal Highness King Jin?
In the future, His Royal Highness King Jin will be the emperor, so how about showing it to the ministers in the court?
The officials of the Ministry of Officials were thoughtful, and felt that they had guessed Li Shimin's intentions. They responded with a sound, and were about to retreat, but Li Shimin waved and stopped him again.

The officials of the Ministry of Officials were a little puzzled, but His Majesty didn't speak, and he couldn't speak. He just stood there respectfully, waiting for His Majesty to speak.

Li Shimin was thinking.

He called this official from the Ministry of Officials just now, and wanted to interview these people himself, because he really meant to pave the way for Li Zhi.

but……

With a flash of inspiration, he found that this incident seemed to be useful not only to his son, but also to himself.

"After today, draft a memorial." Li Shimin ordered.

The officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs stood at attention and listened.

"In the future, there will be another palace examination in the imperial examination." Li Shimin continued after deliberating, "The so-called palace examination is a re-examination in the palace. There is no need to write lengthy articles, only a few hundred words are enough."

"I'm here to personally test their standards."

The officials of the Ministry of Officials responded with a sigh, and when they saw that Li Shimin had no more orders, they retreated cautiously.

The palace test was Li Shimin's whim.

But this whim, he felt very important.

Although there are very few cases of cheating in the imperial examinations now, and it is difficult to escape the eyes of inspectors, but it cannot be said that there are no such things... Last year, more than 60 people were found in the imperial examinations, and two of them were admitted to Jinshi!

As many as sixteen officials from the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites were implicated.

This year, because of the black hat on his head, the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites have been more attentive in preventing fraud in the imperial examinations. At least... so far, no fraud has been found.

But not found, can not say no.

The palace examination is a good way to prevent cheating, at least... if there are real materials, you can know if you ask them in the palace examination.

Second, it's also a great opportunity to discover talent.

Some people's papers and articles are beautifully written, but it doesn't mean that they will definitely become an official. Just like Ji Wen, although he is talented and learned, he is not good at being an official.

Li Shimin felt that...if he didn't have this relationship with the Fuxue Society, almost a servant would be the end of his official career.

It is now that there is Tongfu Academy, which may at most be a position of Shangshu.

But Li Yifu is different.

Although Li Yifu's writing and knowledge are not good enough, he is quite talented in being an official. With this posture, coupled with the support of Tongfu Academy, it is not difficult even... to become the prime minister.

The number one scholar is not necessarily a good official.

After a personal inspection, you can know people and make good use of them, not to mention being able to know everything about Li Yifu, at least you can understand whether this person can be an official and whether he is suitable for the position given to him by the Ministry of Officials. .

From this point of view, the palace examination has become a very necessary thing.

The official department is preparing for this matter intensively.

There is not much preparation required for this matter, all you need to do is notify the winners and choose a date - as for the choice of this date, the past will naturally not work.

Hugh Mu inevitably became the only choice.

Working overtime on rest days is a very painful thing for everyone-officials below the fifth rank are not included, and only officials above the fifth rank are allowed to watch the palace examination.

They also have the right to choose not to come.

But no one would give up such an opportunity to show their hard work and dedicate themselves to Datang for their own selfish desires.

The news of the palace examination has not had time to ferment.

This group of scholars went to the palace examination.

The officials in red robes and purple robes in the court hall twisted their beards and looked at the group of young people with a smile—maybe not all of them were so young, and there were also old people with gray hair and beards who were nearly fifty years old, but at least in the Officially, they are all young people.

Li Shimin asked about strategies one by one.

Some people answered honestly, while others responded oilily.

This palace examination was a waste of time compared to ordinary court meetings. Most people, Li Shimin, asked a few questions in person, and talked a lot about those who looked quite extraordinary.

After talking in person.

Li Shimin felt that the palace examination was more necessary.

I dare not say that I have seen through a person completely, but I have a more or less understanding of their character.

What makes him feel pity is that every champion has some problems with his personality.

Sun Fujia is like this, Ji Wen is like this, and this guy called Jia Tong is also like this. They are all too straightforward and naive.Innocence is of course not a derogatory term, it's just not suitable for the court.

On the contrary, it was Zhang Yezu, who was an exquisite and thoughtful person.

It's just that he has a bit of a temper and thinks highly of himself, but... his level is limited, and he compares himself to Fang Du, but his level... is that of Hou Junji's, which is not as good as the top, but more than the bottom.

As for the people from those aristocratic families... Maybe their brains are really broken, and they didn't hold the top two positions, but their attitude towards Jia Tong and Zhang Yezu turned out to be dismissive.

But in terms of ability, these people are inferior to Zhao Kuo.At any rate, Zhao Kuo can still talk about military affairs on paper. These two people are just talking about the strategy of governing the country, and they can also make Li Shimin's eyes shine.

But when I asked about the details, it paled in comparison, and the fox's tail was exposed.

It can't be said that these people are incapable, but they are not as big as they show.

Li Shimin sighed.

The hundreds of years of accumulation of the aristocratic family are revealed in this way—even if the books are getting cheaper and the knowledge has no threshold, but writing articles, how can a person from a poor family be the same as dozens of people who have read for decades? Compared to the old pedant of the book?
It is impossible to catch fraud.

But these few people, Li Shimin didn't intend to reuse them, the aristocratic family was ready to move, and they didn't cover it up, so they praised these few people as dragons and phoenixes on the spot.

Although the article is not as good as the champion, but the talent is still above the champion.

Jia Tong didn't care, Zhang Yezu squinted and hated these people.

Li Shimin was too lazy to argue with these people, so with a big wave of his hand, they were all sent to the Imperial Academy, and they will make arrangements after the Turks are defeated.

This made the aristocratic family punch the cotton, and they could only retreat embarrassingly.

Although the family came out to be a pickle stick, Li Shimin was in a pretty good mood, except for the slightly exaggerated people in the family.

These successful ones all have real talents and real learning, and they are worthy of the level they have shown.

No cheating.

The palace exam was over, and it was getting dark.

Li Shimin held a banquet at the Daxing Hall to clean up the dust for these students.

The Shangshi Bureau has been busy for a long time, and it is busy during non-holidays.
