Chapter 664: The sword points at the three nobles and nine ministers! I am waiting for them to get curled up, what are you waiting for?
Xiong Wan was in a good mood along the way.
Although Ying Chengyu broke their two shots in succession.
But with the joint efforts of all the courtiers and dignitaries, they finally made a hole in the imperial examination!
Ying Chengyu suddenly sighed softly: "It is a major matter for the country to promote scholars for the country, but there are many villains who come to take the exam."
"This is the great misfortune of the Qin Dynasty!"
"Taipu Mi, don't you think so?"
Mi Li was suddenly selected, but she didn't panic at all. She just said warmly: "I will be divided into imperial examinations." After all, it is a new strategy that is different from the ancient ones."
"It is normal that the strategy presented by Chang'an Jun has some omissions."
"But even if there are omissions, this strategy is still there. After all, we can select some talents for the court and show the devotion of Lord Changan to the country.”
Mi Li's voice was gentle, but the sarcasm in her words almost overflowed.
Isn’t this to say that Ying Chengxuan is good at military strategy but not good at government affairs. The strategies he presented are full of loopholes and useless for the country, which can only show his dedication to the country!
Ying Chengxiao smiled: "There are indeed many omissions in my plan."
"It's just because I never thought that there would be so many insects trying to cheat. Passed the exam.”
“I never thought that there would be many silverfish in the court, cooperating with these insects to cheat!”
Mi Li frowned slightly: "It is true that insects cheated."
"But there are still silverfish in the court who cooperated with them to cheat?"
"This happened!"
< br>Ying Chengxuan suddenly stopped and looked at Mi Li: "Does the servant Mi really not know?"
Mi Li also stopped and looked at Ying Chengxuan without giving up: "Could Mr. Chang'an be suspicious? My Lord?”
The four eyes met each other, the atmosphere was cold and solemn!
Li Si, Wang Wan and others did not expect that Ying Chengyu would suddenly attack now and here, and even have the intention of provoking a conflict!
Li Si immediately stepped out and whispered: "Jun Chang'an, calm down!"
"If Mr. Chang'an has this suspicion, I can cooperate with Mr. Chang'an to investigate carefully."
Even if you are sure that Mi Li and others cooperated with the candidates to cheat, you have no evidence!
The "Qin Code" stipulates the crime of false accusation and the crime of slander.
Ying Chengxuan’s direct questioning of Mi Li without evidence can be considered slander!
If Ying Chengyu said this in front of Ying Zheng, it would be considered a false accusation!
Then the focus of the next struggle between the two sides will quickly change from dividing the imperial examination to criminal investigation and defense.
But Li Si has no doubt that Mi Li and others will kill all their own children in the examination room in order to counter Ying Chengyu!
This is very detrimental to Ying Chengyu!
Ying Chengxuan looked at Li Si in surprise: "I am very calm."
"I just saw that Mi Taipu had many thoughts about this separate imperial examination, so I asked It’s just a matter of time.”
“After all, the imperial examination has just begun. If any problems are found, we can fix them as soon as possible to avoid delaying my work.”
“What’s the matter? So calm?”
"You think so, servant Mi?"
Mi Li looked at Ying Chengyu intently, and suddenly smiled: "I am lucky to be valued by Lord Chang'an!"
"I'm just sorry for my incompetence, but I really didn't notice that there was a silverfish in our court!"
Ying Chengyu sighed regretfully: "That's right, what about Li Tingwei?"
“Did you see any mistakes or find any silverfish?”
Li Si:? ? ?
Are you having fun?
Li Si smiled awkwardly and said: "I didn't find anything at all."
Ying Chengyu looked at Han Cang again: "Did Han Shangqing find anything wrong?"
After asking Jiu Qing and his subordinates, Ying Chengyu asked them one after another.
Until half an hour later, Wang Wan finally couldn't help but remind him: "If Lord Chang'an really has some ideas in this regard, why not report it to the king and ask the king to ask the ministers."
"Just now Lord Chang'an Didn’t you say that you would lead us to the king?”
“You and I will ask each other one by one here. It is inevitable that the king will wait for a long time!”
Ying Chengyu estimated the time and smiled. And nodded: "What the Prime Minister Zuo said is true."
"Everyone, please follow me."
It was only a few hundred feet long, and it took Ying Chengyu more than half an hour to reach the five-horse cart.
With a bow, Ying Chengxuan said in a solemn voice: "I would like to inform you, Your Majesty, that a total of 6,395 gentlemen have entered the military academy for scientific examinations."
"There are seventeen more. The hidden fraud has been escorted back to Xianyang City by Tingwei."
The curtain of the five-horse cart was opened, and Ying Zheng nodded slightly: "Good"
"Thank you. I love you so much.”
"I never thought that there would be so many insects mixed into Sir!"
Mi Li cupped her hands and said: "If these insects are really allowed to mix into the court, it may cause a catastrophe!"< br>
“Thanks to the king’s wisdom and the keenness of Lord Chang’an, we were able to identify the worms among them.”
“I believe that the people who will take the imperial examination this time will definitely be able to recruit talents for the court!”
< br>Ying Chengyu shook his head: "I thought that even if I set up strict inspections at the entrance of the military academy, I still couldn't prevent all insects."
Mi Li looked at Ying Chengxuan with a smile: "Why did Lord Chang'an say this?"
"The soldiers under Lord Chang'an have removed all the clothes of all the gentlemen and inspected them carefully."
>"Is it possible that Mr. Chang'an is still uneasy?"
Ying Chengyu glanced at Mi Li and said calmly: "Using foreign objects to cheat is the lowest and crudest method."
"In addition to cheating by borrowing foreign objects, I believe that there will be some silverfish in the court who will leak the test questions to my husband in advance, so that he can memorize the answers early."
"If this strategy is implemented, how should the court control it?"
The expressions of Wang Wan, Wei Zhuang and other important officials all changed.
You must know that all the subordinate officers are only giving advice and suggestions. The only ones who can truly understand the entire examination paper are the three ministers and nine ministers of Great Qin! If we say that Ying Chengyu's question just now was just a map cannon.
What Ying Chengyu is saying now is undoubtedly pointing at the Three Gongs and Nine Qings of Great Qin!
Li Si lowered his head speechlessly.
Have fun!
Mi Li pretended to be serious and asked: "The Lord of Chang'an was just asking us if we found any silverfish in the court cooperating with the insects to cheat."
"Now the Lord of Chang'an is asking the king again. Talk about it in front of me."
"Chang'an Jun has found the evidence?"
Ying Chengxuan said calmly: "Not at all."
Mi Li breathed a sigh of relief, but still asked with a serious face: "Then why did Lord Chang'an slander us?!"
Ying Cheng Ying Cheng said seriously: "Because if I intend to destroy our imperial examinations in Great Qin, I will do this."
All the important officials looked at Ying Cheng in surprise.
Hearing Ying Chengxuan continue to speak: "If I intend to undermine the imperial examination candidates, I will first make it impossible for those talented people from ordinary families to come to participate in the examination."
"Then he makes his own children enter the examination with cheating materials, or directly bribes important officials to ask for the examination questions, or even bribes the invigilators to take the examination on their behalf."
"In this way, the examination candidates are divided into different categories. The selected scholars are exactly the same as those recommended by various places, so dividing the civil examinations will be useless, but it will cost a lot of money."
"Over time, the king will naturally despise the separate imperial examinations. , or even abolish this policy!"
Mi Li, Xiong Wan and others looked at Ying Chengyu in disbelief.
Isn’t this their plan!
Using various means to occupy the quota of civil servants and allowing more children of the family to enter the court and hold important positions is just an appearance.
Let Ying Zheng discover that the officials obtained by the imperial examination are exactly the same as the officials obtained by the recommendation, and then despise or even abolish the imperial examination scholars, this is their fundamental purpose!
Mi Li and others couldn't help but look at the people around them with a little more vigilance and suspicion. They couldn't help but wonder if someone had betrayed them and revealed all their plans to Ying Chengyu!
But what they didn't know was that Ying Chengyu didn't need to bribe or win over to know their plan.
In the original history, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty abolished the nine-level Zhongzheng system and started the examination to promote talents. When the imperial examination era began, the aristocratic families used to block roads, cheat, pass questions, and take exams on behalf of others. Lobby this set of combos to hit Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty!
Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, who was fooled by this set of moves or had no way to deal with it, finally abolished the imperial examination policy!
Fortunately, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty died early. Two years after Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty came to the throne, he launched another test and established the Jinshi subject. This not only revived the imperial examination system, but also completely laid the foundation of the imperial examination system!
Ying Chengqiu is just learning from history.
Ying Zheng stood up and said solemnly: "What Lord Chang'an said makes sense!"
"I deeply believe that you all love me, but I have to take precautions."
"Mr. Chang'an, do you have any countermeasures?"
Ying Chengyu bowed his hands and saluted again: "I have been thinking about it all day and night, and finally came up with a good plan."
"I have prepared a second set of test questions!"
All the ministers were stunned: "What? Chang'an Lord has prepared a second set of test questions? How can the great power of the country and the dynasty be such a trivial matter!"
"Then I will wait for half a year to decide. The test paper is useless? Is this the imperial court's talent or the Chang'an monarch's talent?"
"How dare you, Lord Chang'an, act recklessly in such a big matter! Lord Chang'an, please never forget that you are just a lord and minister!"
All the courtiers could not help but criticize.
The title they spent half a year compiling was canceled just because of Ying Chengyu’s conjecture?
But they have been kept in the dark!
More importantly, the bias of the test questions will directly affect the results of selecting officials, and selecting talents is a huge right.
Ying Chengyu completely grasped this right in his hands without saying a word.
Who would be willing?
Ying Chengxuan looked at the ministers and explained calmly: "I have only prepared the second set of test papers for the Mingfu Department."
"In arithmetic, there is no distinction between benevolence, righteousness, good and evil, only right and wrong. Wrong or not. ”
“And I also focused on the difficulty when formulating the test questions. The difficulty of Paper B that I prepared is similar to that of Paper A set by my colleagues.”
“If the score of Mr. A and B in Papers A and B is similar, the score of Paper A and B will be used for calculation.”
“But what if the difference between Mr. A and B’s scores is too big?”
Win Cheng Xi smiled: "What do you colleagues think is the reason?"
Although the officials still did not agree with Ying Cheng Xi's sudden appearance of Volume B.
But the ministers had to admit that arithmetic is the most difficult subject to fake, and it is also the best subject to judge.
If you can, you will, if you don't, you won't.
Right is right, wrong is wrong.
If most students have similar scores in Papers A and B, there will be a small group of students whose scores in Paper B are much lower than those in Paper A.
Then it is difficult to have any other explanation other than fraud!
A thin layer of sweat broke out on Mi Li's forehead, and she nodded in agreement: "There is some truth in what Lord Chang'an said."
"Of course, the division of civil servants in the imperial examination is a major matter involving the selection of talents for the country, and it should not be decided in one word."
"I think that the Lord of Chang'an should take out the B volume made by the Lord of Chang'an. Let your colleagues check it."
"If all colleagues think the difficulty is similar, you can use it."
As long as he can see the paper, Mi Li will be confident to pass in the answer. examination room!
However, Ying Chengyu smiled and shook his head: "Counting the time, all the gentlemen in the field should have already started to answer the second paper."
I'm delaying this because I'm waiting for them to curl up.
What are you waiting for?
