Chapter 447 Fang Jun invigilates the exam (End)
It is said that the emergence of certain characters is inevitable. The person in power, Wu Zetian, needs a person like Li Yifu as a sharp knife for her to control the situation of the court. This is how Li Yifu was created. If there were no Li Yifu, there would definitely be others. He stepped forward to do this for Wu Zetian.
So it is said that times create heroes.
If Li Yifu had followed His Majesty Li Er a few years earlier, would he have dared to make friends and sell his official position?
His Majesty Li Er, who did not tolerate disdain in his eyes, taught him how to be a good man every minute...
Now that Wu Meimei is brought into her house, the historical Emperor Zetian will probably not appear, so will Li Yifu's life also change accordingly?
This is a false proposition, and no one can have an answer.
Fang Jun, the invigilator, was distracted above, and the candidates below all breathed a sigh of relief.
The rigor of the body search and the severity of the punishment just now made each of these candidates have lingering fears, fearing that Fang Jun would bring his aggressiveness into the examination room, behave improperly, and be kicked out by the wolf-like government officials if he was suspected of plagiarism or cheating. Then it’s too late to cry...
But looking at it now, it was obvious that this person was a complete failure. He was very careful and rigorous during the body search, but when he got to the examination room, he was not harsh and just sat there in a daze. It was probably because the secret possession had hurt Fang Erlang's face, and he regarded it as a provocation to him, so he was punished so severely. But since there are no cheating things such as cheat sheets, you can take the exam based on your true ability. Occasionally, you will turn a blind eye to some minor inadequacies that are not mentioned.
All the candidates thought this way, but in fact no one dared to test Fang Jun's bottom line. The risk was too great...
Fang Jun stretched out boredly and yawned.
I haven't slept well these past few days. I've been eating, drinking, and having sex in the yamen of the Ministry of Etiquette. I haven't been home for several days, hugging Wu Meimei's smooth and delicate body, doing exercises and then having a good sleep. I feel really depressed. .
The exam went smoothly.
During this period, there were naturally those low-level candidates who were scratching their heads and scratching their heads because they couldn't answer the test questions. They secretly stretched their necks to look at other people's answers. Even if Fang Jun saw it, he turned a blind eye and was indifferent.
In the final analysis, this imperial examination is just an excess, a show, and a compromise made by His Majesty Li Er to the aristocratic families, in exchange for the real imperial examination in the future being able to get the support of these aristocratic families, or at least not to conflict with it.
Since it's a show, why should you be too nervous? Outside the previous gate, I had expressed my attitude to the family members on behalf of His Majesty Li Er. The future imperial examinations will be like this. No one can fish in troubled waters!
Having expressed his attitude, those noble families must not be fools, so they can naturally understand what His Majesty Li Er means.
Strictly speaking, Fang Jun's task has been completed. As for the candidates present, it doesn't really matter who is first and who is second. It doesn't matter whether they plagiarized or not. Anyway, the higher the rankings of these guys, the more they are judged by Li Er. If your majesty remembers it firmly, the future will be even more worrying...
In the face of the next generation of talents who have truly emerged through rigorous imperial examinations, how could His Majesty Li Er reuse these children of aristocratic families who relied on compromise to gain opportunities?
Of course, the treatment of poor people among them must be different.
When he thought of this, Fang Jun felt depressed again. Li Yifu seemed to have a lot of luck...
*****
The exam went smoothly. Since it was just a formal imperial examination, it only took one day to complete the entire exam, and it was all over in the evening.
The candidates handed in their examination papers. Some were dejected, some were arrogant, and they poured out of the Imperial College one after another.
Outside the door, the servants of those aristocratic families have been waiting for a long time, looking for their young master one after another, handing over hand stoves and tea. For those who are more exaggerated, there will be delicate little maids holding the soft thighs with their slender jade fingers. Feed it to your mouth, take care of it...
"Hey, Brother Zheng, are you here for the exam too? I haven't seen you before. Which exam room are you in?"
"Haha, thanks to you, I am in Fang Er's examination room." Brother Zheng smiled and bowed his hands.
"Oh my, that's really bad luck!" The man looked regretful, as if he felt sorry for Brother Zheng, but he couldn't hide the gloating in his eyes. Yes, when we usually play together, we all have good friendships with each other, but in the imperial examination, you have to be ranked. If you have one less enemy, your ranking will naturally be higher.
It can't be said how shameless, who is not selfish?
But Brother Zheng smiled proudly and said modestly: "It's okay, okay, Fang Er is not an unkind person, probably because of our usual hard work in studying, he didn't criticize us too much, even in the examination room There were some minor inaccuracies that were not discussed, but Fang Er was really interesting!”
That person was a little dumbfounded. Is Fang Er interesting enough? Looking at the way he looked during the body search earlier, I just wanted to send all these candidates home. Would he let loose in the examination room?
Simply incredible!
Someone next to me asked: "Is this true?"
Brother Zheng nodded and said: "Why are you lying to you? But having said that, blatant plagiarism is definitely not okay. Who is Fang Er, who can tolerate this in his eyes? But for some unintentional mistakes, even if there is a suspicion of plagiarism, then Fang Er But adhering to the idea of treating illnesses and saving lives, he only gave a slight warning and did not severely punish him.”
"Mom! Brother, when I entered the examination room, I saw that it was not the second invigilator, and I thanked the gods and Buddhas all over the place! But who would have thought that the person in charge of the Ministry of Etiquette, who was the size of a sesame and mung bean, peeked at other people's answers three times in a row? The candidates were kicked out of the room. I was so scared that I didn’t even dare to raise my head. I didn’t even answer one of the three questions. This is really unlucky!”
How did he know that it was precisely because of what Fang Jun said at the gate of the Imperial College that the officials in the Ministry of Rites, who had been ignored for many years, were so confident that they were eager to show their sense of existence, so during the invigilation process The words are so harsh that they are outrageous. Those who whisper will be expelled; those who look left and right will be expelled; those who do not answer will be expelled; those who fart on the spot will be expelled...
The unlucky candidate who was expelled just for farting shouted that he was wronged. You are the proctor of the exam, but you don’t care about heaven and earth, or do you care about people’s farts?
The official from the Ministry of Etiquette who invigilated the exam was even more outrageous in his answer: "I can't control your farts, but the environment of the exam room is under my control. You have polluted the air in the exam room, causing other candidates to not be able to take the exam in the best environment. You can be said to be a bad mouse." After a pot of porridge, this is my responsibility..."
Brother Zheng was also dumbfounded and felt very dangerous. Fortunately, we were taking the exam in the second room's examination room. What a pitiful person...
The candidates next to me sighed and sighed.
Who would have thought that the strongest and most unkind roommate would be the one who invigilated the exam the least?
Li Yifu held his parcel and stood quietly at the entrance of the Imperial College, listening to the discussions of the candidates and smiling disdainfully.
Only those who are incompetent will care whether the invigilation is lax or rigorous. For candidates like him who are full of knowledge and talent, no matter who is invigilating the exam, they can write brilliant essays and write beautiful essays!
However, listening to these discussions, he was also a little surprised. He really didn't expect that Fang Jun had a sudden reversal. After thinking about it, he thought he had figured out the reason for Fang Jun's behavior.
He used the harshness during the body search to express a certain gesture to the wealthy families; and then he failed to finish the exam during the invigilation, in order to show favor to the wealthy families he had offended. The previous actions were all for a reason, but they cannot be treated as such. All the grudges will be brought to our heads...
The benefactor is indeed no ordinary person. No wonder he is appreciated and reused by His Majesty at such a young age. The way to serve as an official is indeed very proficient, high, really high...
Li Yifu tightened his cloak and left with admiration. The benefactor had previously said that this cloak was lent to him. He must have been worried that someone would use this to attack him and protect the candidates. It was also to consider the future of his Li Yi Mansion and avoid incurring criticism for him.
How can such a big shot really care about a big cloak when he has plenty of money?
Little did he know that shortly after he left, Xi Junmai hurriedly chased Li Yifu around, hoping to get back the cloak. When Fang Jun heard that Li Yifu had disappeared, he was so angry that he cursed.
"This bastard, he said he borrowed it, but he dared to secretly take it away? Li Yifu, wait for me, I will make you look good next time I catch you!"
Poor Li Yifu thought he had guessed Fang Jun's thoughts, but he didn't know that he was already being regarded as a thief by his "benefactor"... (End of Chapter)
