Daily life of Heshen's pet wife

Everyone present looked at it, but no one spoke first.

Qianlong was not in a hurry, so he waited quietly. After a while, Fulong'an came out to speak first.

"The slave thinks that Li Huang's article is better."

Fu Long'an didn't have a good impression of Heshen at all. After returning to Beijing, he was able to get along with Heshen on the surface, but he still looked down on Heshen on the inside. It was just because of his background that he didn't want to care about people like Heshen, so he just He didn't care much about He Shen.

But when encountering such an opportunity to blatantly step on He Shen, Fu Long'an would never let it go.

Although Qinggui and Mingliang had no relationship with Fu Long'an, they would never let go of such an opportunity, and they also said: "The servant also thinks that Li Huang's article is better."

Agui and Fengsheng were not there, Shu Hede remained silent, and there was only Fukang'an who consciously didn't know much about stereotyped articles and didn't express much opinion because of his shallow knowledge. Most of the military ministers stood by Li Huang's side.

As for the ministers of the Han Dynasty, apart from Yu Minzhong, Liu Tongxun, Liu Lun, Yuan Shoutong, Liang Guozhi, and Dong Gao all agreed with Qianlong that He Shen's article was better.

Qianlong waited for everyone to finish speaking before he said: "I also think that He Shen's article is better."

He Shen was in front of the Military Aircraft Department to discuss matters, but this was to determine who was better in his or Li Huang's article. He had to avoid suspicion, so he could not express his opinion, and he was not going to express his opinion.

In fact, he has not read Li Huang's article.But he has read all the articles written by Li Huang in the past, including the article written by Li Huang last month, which was spread by the scholars, and He Shen also read it.

Not only He Shen had read it, but Wu Shengqin and Wu Shenglan had also read it, and their brothers agreed that Li Huang's article was not as good as He Shen's.Even if there are traces of stereotypes to follow, certain rules need to be followed, but Li Huang's articles are too regular, good or bad, but they have lost some aura.

He Shen also felt the same way when he looked at it. Li Huang is very talented, but he deliberately arranged the articles to follow the rules, so the articles would naturally be too regular.

He Shen couldn't do this, so Wu Xingqin said that his articles can always see some unintentional wantonness, and still have some character of his own, so in the end, it depends on which one the examiners prefer.

Qianlong must have preferred Heshen's articles for various reasons.

He had no intention of reusing Li Huang at all, and he had a very clear understanding of the twists and turns of these people in the Military Aircraft Department. When Qianlong asked, he could see many things clearly.

If He Shen's article was not placed together with Li Huang, then Li Huang would win naturally, but if the two people's articles were placed together to compete for the first place, then the final result would naturally be that He Shen was in the head.

He Shen will be the first in the test, and Li Huang will be the second.He Shen was in Huiyuan again.The two people's articles could not be decided by the president of the meeting, so they directly got the news from the emperor to go to the ruling, because Qianlong didn't let people keep it secret. .

The disciples were all discussing behind their backs, but because it was decided by the emperor himself, they didn't dare to say anything more.

In fact, Li Huang and He Shen's articles were also circulated, and the candidates all read them. There are many people who support Li Huang, and there are many people who say that He Shen's writing is better. It actually made the already extraordinarily lively capital even more lively.

He Shen didn't really care or care about these outside discussions. After he had passed the test, there was another palace test waiting for him.

He Shen wasn't that worried about the result of the palace exam. He had studied hard all these years, and with brothers Wu Shengqin and Wu Shenglan's relentless supervision day and night, his foundation was solid, so he wasn't afraid of failing the exam.

Looking at Qianlong's posture, as long as his articles are well written, he must be the number one scholar.

It's just that in this palace examination, it is said that the champion, Tanhua, second place and Jinshi are appointed by the emperor, but in fact there are eight reviewers, and the rankings and grades are determined by these eight reviewers.

According to the rules of the palace examination, the officer in charge divides the papers into bundles of ten volumes in turn, and distributes them to the ministers who mark the papers in turn. After one person reads them, they will pass them on to the next person for reviewing, until they have read them all, which is called "turning the table".

After reading a volume, you need to score it with five equal marks.They are represented by the symbols "circle, triangle, dot, vertical line, cross" respectively.Only one degree of difference is allowed between high and low.If the first grader judges this paper as a pointed triangle, then the subsequent graders will raise it as a circle and suppress it as a point, and there can be no other grades.Therefore, the first grader is naturally very important, and the grade for the test paper can lay the foundation for this test paper.

If there are people with the same achievement, the decision will be made by the senior person when deciding the ranking.The chief examiner has certain privileges in making decisions.

In this palace examination, except for a few bachelors from the Hanlin Academy handpicked by Qianlong, the rest are all ministers from the Military Aircraft Department.The first examiner this time is Liu Tongxun, followed by Liu Lun, Shu Hede, Yuan Shoutong and Liang Guozhi.

He Shen's examination paper, unsurprisingly, became the examination paper with the most circles.He is five circles and three tops.Li Huang is two circles and six tops. These two people are one in front and one behind. One is the number one scholar, and the other is the Tanhua handpicked by Qianlong.

He Shen won three prizes in a row and became the first Eight Banners student to win the top prize in these years.Qianlong was very happy.In the past few years, he has been looking forward to Heshen being the number one scholar, and to see Heshen's presence at the Grand Ceremony of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Now that his wish came true, Qianlong looked at He Shen, the number one scholar with a cross and double flower arrangement in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and always felt that the young seedlings he had worked so hard to grow had grown into towering trees, and he felt particularly fulfilled.

In the year when He Shen won the first prize in the examination, He Shen participated in the final examination of Xian'an Palace, and passed the examination of Xian'an Palace with absolutely excellent results, and officially graduated from the official school of Xian'an Palace.

He just passed the examination here, and someone from the other side spoke to Qianlong, saying that he is no longer in the official school, and has already won the number one prize. When the time comes, He Shen can also do his best to share the worries of the emperor and the court.

Qianlong originally had this intention, and the words of these people just touched his heart. Qianlong made an order at the court meeting to promote Heshen as the right servant of the household department, and ordered the minister of military aircraft to learn to walk, and the minister of the imperial court to learn to walk.

Li Huang, who won the prize that day, was sent to the Imperial Academy by Qianlong's decree to be an editor and a seniority officer. On the other hand, He Shen, who was still a young man, had already learned to walk on the military and imperial ministers.

What does this mean?This shows that Qianlong has regarded Heshen as an important minister.

No matter how many people have worked hard for most of their lives, it is difficult to be a minister in front of Qianlong.But a young man like Heshen managed to do it in just a few years.And Qianlong still valued him so much.

Apart from not living in Feng's residence, He Shen would go to Feng's residence to accompany the Guerjia family, Yinglian and the little girl for dinner whenever he had time.

He Lin couldn't come back at noon, and every night after school, he would return to Feng's mansion for dinner.

The two families are now engaged, and they move closer than ever.

It happened that Ying Lian came back earlier that day. After having dinner with Feng Zhixi and He Lin in the dining room, Ying Lian asked He Shen to come to his study. He had something to say to He Shen. speak.

The weather in June is already a bit hot in Beijing.

Yinglian’s study also has a Heshen filial automatic fan with water flow, but Yinglian is too old to use ice cubes, so he just controls the water flow directly to enjoy the cool breeze, and then open the windows, the study is very comfortable. Cool off.

Ying Lian said straight to the point: "The people who give advice to the emperor to grant you official positions are not only ministers who are optimistic about you, but also courtiers who have nothing to do with you, and even courtiers who don't like you. It’s really neat, just like the last time I impeached you, telling the emperor together just happens to hit the emperor’s heart, otherwise it will be ignored again.”

"However, these people may not be well-intentioned. I watched it coldly, but I still have to remind you that in the past, you didn't receive any errands, and they couldn't do anything if they wanted to touch you. They finally found someone to compete with the people, but unexpectedly, the emperor didn't care about you." I care about this. Now that you are assigned an errand, it is to make you make mistakes. If you make a mistake, they will not let go of it. Even if the emperor wants to protect you, it will be difficult. This is exactly what they want."

"I see."

He Shen nodded and said, "Actually, they have already taken on an errand for me. If I can't handle it well, it will be just what they want, and they will have a reason to impeach me in front of the emperor."

Ying Lian hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"

Although Yinglian's errand was in the palace and he was a minister Qianlong relied heavily on, but he was not in the military aircraft department, so he couldn't get the latest news in the first place. Hearing what He Shen said, it showed that they had already made a move.

He Shen said: "Mr. Liu Tongxun was promoted to Prince Taifu not long ago, and he also served as the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu. The emperor ordered him to inspect the garrisons in Balikun and Hami, and was responsible for organizing the barracks, officers and soldiers, and horse and camel food."

Ying Lian nodded slightly, indicating that he knew about it.

After Liu Tongxun went to Hami, just as the leader of the Hui tribe sent troops to harass Yili, General Dingxi was forced to withdraw from Balikun.Because he agreed to withdraw troops from Hami forever, Liu Tongxun bluntly asked to abandon Balikun and retreat to Hami instead, leaving the city empty to avoid the enemy.After seeing it, the emperor blamed Liu Tongxun for joining Yongchang, disregarding the military prestige, and ordered Liu Tongxun and Yongchang to be dismissed and escorted back to Beijing.

Counting the days, Liu Tongxun and Yongchang should arrive in the capital in a few days.

He Shen said: "The emperor has not issued an order today, but only ordered the ministers to discuss matters. They pushed the matter to me with a few words. They said that I am young and promising, and I should have a way to solve this predicament. How to deal with Master Liu and General Dingxi? Jane is in the emperor's heart, but if we can take back Balikun, Shen and I will be able to fight well and live up to the emperor's love."

"Immediately, the emperor ordered me to patrol Hami as a special envoy and take Balikun back. The military situation is urgent and we will be leaving soon."

Ying Lian's face was solemn: "This is a trap. They are trying to drive a wedge between you and Mr. Liu."
