The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty

After the state examination is over, the next round will be the provincial examination hosted by the Ministry of Rites.

The exam date was announced to be held in February, leaving a period of time for candidates from all over the country to go to Beijing.The advantage of Gyeonggi-ro candidates is probably that they don’t have to travel long distances, so they can review with peace of mind.

The students of Kaifeng Fuxue are all from the prefecture—if they are from other places, they have to go back to their hometown for the state examination before the state examination.

According to the analysis, in recent years, Renzong's strategy theory has become more and more important.

I can only go back for a few days during the Chinese New Year, but the parents of the students agree very much, and they can rest assured that their children are in the government school.

On the other hand, when the three-year terms of officials expired, many of them went to Beijing to report on their duties. Shen Kuo's father, Shen Zhou, finally had the opportunity to meet his eldest grandson.

The Shen and Zhou couples are very fond of Guagua, because Shuangyi has been controlling her weight. Guagua was not too heavy at birth, but she is in good health. The older she grows, the fatter she is, which fits the concept of a fat boy in the hearts of the elderly.

They couldn't be more satisfied with Shuangyi.Even the name Shen Liang was accepted.

The old people think that vulgarity is elegance, and what's the use of having such a fancy name, if it is simpler, it will be better raised.Like watermelon, it has connotation and preciousness, what's wrong with it?No, didn't his uncle give away so many watermelon patches when he was born?

Shen Kuo was so aggrieved, he was even more aggrieved than the ginseng fruit that was always called melon essence, it was not a matter of name, why did he feel that his family status had plummeted...

After having a child, the order of status in many families changes dramatically—regardless of race.

This is true of Shen Kuo's family, and so is Yun Beibei's family.

The female giant panda that Yun Beibei soaked in is also very popular with tourists in Lingyuan, and they often receive bamboo shoot baskets.Not long ago, she gave birth successfully and gave birth to a panda cub.

The place of birth was in Lingyuan. On the second day after giving birth, Yunyan went to see the cubs when she returned home.

The mother panda held the cub in her arms. The little cub was pink in color and its eyes were not opened. It looked like a little mouse.This made many younger tourists refuse to believe that this is a panda cub, which looks so unreal.

Yun Yan replied that they didn't dare to get too close, and only watched the discussion from a distance.

"It really looks like Beibei!"

——This is what Zheng Ping said, Yun Yanhui always finds it very familiar, it seems that Zheng Ping also used this sentence pattern after Shuang Yi gave birth.But Yun Yanhui still couldn't tell how Zheng Ping saw that the child resembled the parents.

The family also talked about it, and they should also name Beibei's child.

Because the cub was born in Lingyu, and it was the first giant panda cub born here, they decided to call it Lingling.

As soon as Lingling was born, Beibei's attention dropped.Yunyanhui brought Beibei from Zhao Yunchu's house to Lingyuan to see his child. Beibei didn't know his wife much, let alone the child. I was so angry that I kept pulling on the railing.

After all, no matter how spiritual Beibei is, he still doesn't have the memory of a human being.

Yunyan went back and touched its head, and was fascinated by Lingling, who fell step by step.

Beibei rolled and slammed her chubby head against the railing, as if she wanted to accuse Yunyan of being fond of the new and loathing the old.What's so good over there, can the hairless kid be as cute as him?

In the end, Beibei even refused to stay in the spiritual prison, which showed its rare wisdom.If it stays in Lingyuan, wouldn't it be the same as looking at the little cub next door every time Yunyan came back to visit it?This is giving it a chance!

In Yun Yanhui's imagination, the father and son of two giant pandas, one big and one small, have never seen each other. Even as long as Beibei and Lingling are on the same occasion, Lingling who tries to crawl to Yunyan Hui's feet will be killed. Beibei flew away with his ass.

……

When he came back from his mission to Liao, Yun Yan asked Kong Ji to write some dramas with private goods, and Kong Ji really created it.This review standard is quite high, and several ministers of the current dynasty and even Renzong personally reviewed it, and Yun Yanhui also entered the palace to discuss this aspect.

The big guys get together to discuss how to put the ideas they want to spread in the new play in a high-end way, and finally they will be unified and called Kong Ji to revise.Some courtiers were even so impatient that they started writing by themselves.

——Song Chen has many talents, not to mention writing poems that can be sung, the questions answered in the imperial examinations all pay attention to phonology, so it's okay to help write a few lines!

A group of smart people are holding back their energy to cheat people here, and it goes well.

Finally, after talking about the matter, everyone dispersed, and Yunyan returned to the sheets to stay.

Yun Yan was thinking about what Renzong wanted him for, and Renzong seemed to have heard his heart, and said: "Yesterday, Bao Qing gave the memorial, and after reading it, I was very moved!"

Yunyan didn't know about this, so she silently looked at Renzong with studious eyes.

Renzong said: "The title is "Begging for No Dirty Officials"!"

Yun Yan raised her eyebrows back, um, this really looks like Bao Zheng could have written it.

Renzong said: "An honest person is the face of the people; a greedy person is the thief of the people. I deeply believe what Bao Qing said!"

These words are relatively simple, and Yun Yanhui can understand them.These are definitely Bao Zheng's experience and words from the bottom of his heart.The Kaifeng government office before Bao Zheng ruled was filled with many villains and scoundrels, who harmed many people.

Renzong was so emotional because he had investigated and dealt with some corrupt officials that he remembered in his tenure.

Just after Yun Yan returned to Kaifeng Mansion, there were corruption cases that led Renzong to bring up the "people's fat and people's anointing" again, and there were larger cases such as the collusion between officials and businessmen in the market, not to mention the countless small cases.

Yunyan thought back to herself, with this incident, it seems that Renzong is going to crack down on corruption.

The treatment of officials in the Song Dynasty was already very good, but there were always people who lacked people's hearts, and they didn't take any reasonable benefits, such as going to the Liao Kingdom to take gifts from the Liao Emperor and Liaochen himself.

Yun Yanhui, as a member of the bureaucrats, should of course agree decisively when the officials come to him to confide in such an emotional upsurge, and shed blood with Renzong, and at the same time start from his own personal experience to explore the benefits of doing so .

After reassuring Renzong in this way, Renzong really felt at ease, and he was happy to ask Yunyan to talk about it. Yunyanhui was very witty, and his reaction was just right.

……

After flattering at Renzong's place, Yunyan returned to her job, thought for a long time in the study, and went to the Provincial Kao Zhai.

——The Provincial Examination Zhai was temporarily organized for the provincial examination in spring, and all of them were candidates for the examination.

Yunyan thought about it for a long time, and felt that since Renzong wanted to adopt Bao Zheng's suggestion to crack down on corrupt officials, then this would be the most popular subject in the next few months, so she decided to ask candidates to do this question.

It's not a question of whether to bet on the question or not. If some students really win the exam, this can be regarded as a reminder for their official career.

Yun Yanhui wrote four big characters on the blackboard: Integrity and civil servants.

Ge Yun propped his chin and asked, "Students, I can solve this problem." He sat in the first row, turned around and faced his classmates with a smile and said, "It's just a matter of breaking the problem, no matter how you praise Mr. Yun."

Yun Yan replied: "..."

Because Yun Yanhui has always been close to everyone, and he is not considered a serious professor, everyone's attitude is relatively relaxed when he comes to propose questions.

All living beings burst into laughter because of Ge Yun, honest officials, are you talking about Mr. himself?

They are all full of ideas on this topic. Everyone has practiced in the Kaifeng government office. Is there any better place to verify this sentence than here?Everyone can see the changes in Kaifeng Mansion in the past few years.

Yun Yan took out the pointer from under the podium, and put it on Ge Yun's head, "You are proud, do you want to leapfrog?"

Ge Yun was caught by Yun Yanhui when he was shopping in Yuan Street, and he jumped back to the dormitory from the frog in Yuan Street. Not to mention the classmates, half of Tokyo would know about it, and everyone immediately burst into laughter again.

Ge Yun bowed his head in embarrassment, obediently admitting his cowardice.

As for the student Ge Yun, although he has a little problem, his grades are still very good. After being taught a lesson last time, he never dared to do it again, and this time he won the exam.

Yun Yanhui just stared at him, then retracted the pointer, thought for a moment, and said: "I added this topic myself. I don't force you to write it, but I suggest you better think about it."

Yun Yanhui didn't make it very clear. Whether this kind of thing can be understood depends on their future fortune.

However, out of respect for Yun Yanhui, although the review task is heavy enough, everyone still took the time to write this question.

……

A few months later, the Ministry of Rites will try.

Among the more than 27 candidates referred by Kaifeng Mansion, three students passed the Jinshi examination, [-] students passed Ming Jing, and nine other subjects made up a total of [-] candidates.

Among the three members of the Jinshi Division, there is Ge Yun.

These people are eligible to participate in the palace examination in March.

As soon as the results came out, many students went crazy.

At this point, the selected ones are already elites.But the school officials did not dare to relax, and still ordered those who passed the exam to study hard.You know, the palace test is not just a formality, and the chance of being dethroned in one step is very high.

The most frightening thing is that there is no upper limit for dismissal in the palace examination, and the officials would rather be short than excessive. It doesn't mean that you will be fine if you get in the top ten.In previous years, more than half of the candidates were dismissed in the palace examination.

……

On the day of the imperial examination, Ge Yun and other students from Kaifeng Mansion came to the palace under the escort of teachers and classmates.

Yunyan went back to the palace and whispered a few words to the older Ge Yun outside the palace, reminding him that he had already taken care of the servants in the palace, not to mention that it was of great use, but if he was scared by the majesty of the palace, he could pee. Help me change my pants.

Ge Yun almost laughed out loud, feeling very warm in his heart.

More than [-] students from Kaifeng Prefecture, wearing school uniforms, looked neat and huddled together.

Candidates entered the palace and were taken to the Chongzheng Hall. They were not allowed to bring anything other than the study room.With so many candidates, there are twenty or thirty officials in charge of the examination alone.

Some candidates entered the imperial palace for the first time in their lives. Seeing this formation, their legs were a little weak, and they almost tripped over their own feet.

Ge Yun took a peek, and among the officials sitting in the hall, he had seen one. It was an official from Yushitai, who had been invited by Yunyan to give lectures in Kaifeng Mansion.

Seeing someone he was familiar with, even though he knew what the other person could not do, Ge Yun felt inexplicably at ease. After exchanging glances with his classmates, he found that everyone was like this, and was led to his seat more and more calmly.

During the palace examination, there were three questions, which were written by the officials themselves. According to the usual practice, there were one poem, one poem and one policy theory.No one knows what this topic is, where it comes from, and which scripture it is extracted from.

Ge Yun was sitting at the table. Before the exam started, a palace examiner distributed the test papers to the students.

When the time for the test is up, the examinees can check the questions on the test paper following the order of the examiner.

After ten years of studying hard, it's all about the present.

Ge Yun held his breath, tried to calm down, and uncovered the question paper.

The topics are all engraved and printed, and everyone gets the same one.

On the title paper in Ge Yun's hand were printed three lines of square titles: "The Key to Enriching the People is Frugal Fu", "Kunhua Peng Poems" and...

Ge Yun rubbed his eyes, showing an expression of extreme surprise. He suspected that he hadn't woken up from a dream, otherwise, how could he have seen such familiar words?

This is the most important policy topic among the three questions in the palace examination, and it is actually titled "On the Appearance of Honest Officials"!

"On the Biao of Honest Officials" is basically the same as Mr. Yun's "Biao of Honest Officials"...

For this question, Ge Yun not only did it, but also asked the professor to correct it and explain it.

The sea of ​​questions is vast, so what is the chance that the bet is correct, and the difference between the words and sentences is so close?It's like finding a needle in a haystack.

After confirming that he was not dreaming, Ge Yun couldn't help but start fantasizing. Could it be that for them, Mr. Yun peeked at the official's question in the palace, and then leaked it to them? !
