Chapter 385 s for the s and

Outside the Zichen Hall, Peng Yan waited carefully to wait for the summons of the officials in the hall and listened, for fear of missing the sound in the hall and missing the summons of the officials.

But I can't hear Sihao's movement. His neck is a little stiff, but he still dares not slack off at all.

I think the officials are working hard for national affairs again.

Peng Yan said to herself secretly. When he glanced at the white jade steps in front of him, he saw a familiar figure coming quickly and then looked at it, and then he saw the person coming.

Raising his feet, Peng Yan hurriedly greeted him, "Marquis, I haven't seen you for a few days. I heard that the marquis is not in good health. Our family has been going out of the palace to visit the marquis's mansion. However, it is difficult to get out of everything. When I saw the marquis today, I know that the marquis is in good health, and my heart can also be relieved."

The more enthusiastic some people are, the more hypocritical they are.

Naturally, Yang Jing will not break it. Now Peng Yan is a celebrity around the official family. Isn't it uncomfortable to offend?

"Yang Jing was just infected with some wind and cold. Thank you, Grandpa Peng, for yours."

Peng Yan shook the dust in her hand, stretched out her flower finger, and pulled Yang Jing's sleeve very familiarly. "It's good to have nothing to do. If you can't see the marquis, the official family is also extremely uncomfortable. Every day before early morning, he has to order our family to go to the side hall to see if the marquis is coming or not. It's just that the court is busy, otherwise the official family will definitely set up the marquis's mansion and visit the marquis. "Fan."

Looking at Peng Yan with flowers on his face and hearing these beautiful words, Yang Jing couldn't help but be a little disgusted. If the official really had nagging, why didn't even send a royal doctor?

But sometimes, there are some lies, and listening, it has to be regarded as the truth.

With a gentle smile, Yang Jing whispered, "The kindness of the official family, Yang Jing is grateful. I don't know that the official family is busy at the moment. If you have spare time, can you bother Mr. Peng to spread it at the same time?"

"This is a reasonable thing. If the officials learn that the marquis is coming, they must be very happy."

With that, Peng Yan bowed and walked to the hall. A little, he retreated and squeezed his eyes with Yang Jing. "Marquis, the official announced that you should enter the hall."

"There is Mr. Peng."

Entering the Zichen Hall, Yang Jing looked up. In the high hall, Zhao Dezhao was wearing a black gold flying dragon robe. He was there, writing something and concentrating on it. He didn't know that he had come in.

"I have met the officials."

Yang Jing lowered his head and saluted. When Zhao Dezhao heard the sound, he came to his senses and put down his pen with laughter, as if he was happy for his sudden appearance.

"No gift, Yanfeng, are you in good physical well? I haven't seen Yanfeng these days, but it makes me think about it. I was going to go to your mansion to have a look, but there are many things that need to be decided by me, so it has been delayed. Now that you are fine, I'm relieved.

False words are always the same. Of course, because they come from different people, the meaning has changed.

Peng Yan said these words to protect them, while Zhao Dezhao did so to show his false friendship. Both of them could not believe their words.

In his heart, Yang Jing was like a mirror. After thanking Zhao Dezhao, he led the conversation to the purpose. "The official family, when I just entered the palace, I saw that the market was quite lively. When I looked carefully, it was that Enke had been released on the list. Here, I congratulated the official family with good talent, and I have more ministers in the Song Dynasty."

Hearing this, Zhao Dezhao smiled and seemed to be happy for him to make the decision of Enke. Maybe he thought that with the new Dengke and the son of heaven, he could wash Zhao Guangyi's old minister and hold the court firmly in his hand.

In a word, he smiled.

"Yanfeng, you are not feeling well, so I asked King Hui not to disturb you. I just saw the roster sent by the gift department. Does Yanfeng want to have a look?"

With that, Zhao Dezhao raised the red rice paper in front of the case, and Peng Yan, who was waiting beside him, carefully took it with both hands, went down the stone steps and sent it to Yang Jing.

He nods his head to thank Peng Yan. Yang Jing opened the banner-like rice paper. It was also the first time for Yang Jing to see this list of scholars. The name on it was written with the name of the person on the list. He glanced at it. There were about 30 people, which was the same as what he heard in the market.

Looking carefully, sure enough, not to mention the top ten, not even a single southerner out of the 20. It was not until twenty-one that Ma Liang's name appeared.

As for Kou Zhun, who Yang Jing is a little concerned about, he is also in the top three, ranking seventh. And the top three are unheard of.

You should know that with Yang Jing's prestige in Shilin, if he has never heard of the people who won the championship, either these people are too low-key and don't like to be in the limelight; or as Ma Liang said, someone in Enke is operating secretly.

There are really some problems with this roster.

His eyebrows slowly tightened, and Yang Jing secretly thought about how to talk to Zhao Dezhao. If Zhao Dezhao didn't know the list, he would not believe it anyway.

Over the years, the top ten in the imperial examination have been appointed by emperors, and this Enke is used by Zhao Dezhaodeng to show benevolence and righteousness and cultivate his confidants. He must have done it himself, otherwise he would not have admitted such many scholars.

You should know that in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, there were only about 20 scholars in one subject. Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Guangyi were in the position, and there were only more than a dozen people in one subject.

It seems that Zhao Dezhao is eager. I'm afraid that most of these more than 30 people are determined by him.

In Yang Jing's thinking, Zhao Dezhao found his abnormal move, smiled and asked, "Yanfeng, what's wrong with it?"

"I don't dare. I just saw more than 30 scholars in Enke, which shows that I have a lot of talents in the Song Dynasty, and I am happy for the officials."

"Oh?"

Zhao Dezhao smiled again. Obviously, Yang Jing's flattery made him very comfortable.

"It's just..."

Hearing this turning point, Zhao Dezhao subconsciously answered, "It's just something. Yanfeng, you have something to say, but it's okay to say it."

"I don't know if it's a coincidence. Among the scholars, it's probably from the north, so I'm a little confused."

"Haha, it turns out that Yanfeng is puzzled about this. This is unnecessary. The northern land has been influenced by our Central Plains for a long time, so the people's wisdom has been opened, and the education has become a trend. The southerners are located in the wild, there are many barbarians, and the people are stupid. Naturally, the two are not equal. Even the previous emperors once said that southerners are not allowed to sit in my hall."

Zhao Dezhao still inherited Zhao Kuangyin's point of view. If it goes on like this, the battle between the north and the south will become more and more fierce, but it is a sad thing for the Song Dynasty.

"I have also heard the words of the former emperor. In the southern barbarians, the human nature is so bad. The former emperor admonished the officials with these words. In fact, he was afraid that the southerners would enter the court and harm our Song Dynasty. This good intentions is really not easy."

Seeing Zhao Dezhao nodding, Yang Jing understood that at least his words did not make the other party resist, so he continued, "Now that the officials have ascended the throne and want to open the prosperous era of the Song Dynasty, they should take the sages and the government of the Qing Dynasty. It is a blessing of my dynasty and also a blessing for scholars, but it is the eyes of ministers. But there is something to worry about."

Yang Jing was talking about Zhao Dezhao's heart, but suddenly the words suddenly turned, which immediately surprised the latter, "What are you worried about? Yanfeng, come quickly."

"The officials are diligent in the government, and the talents are all for the people, but they are the work of a generation of Ming emperors. In the prosperous era of the Qingming Festival, you love people all over the world and regard the people as your own. In this case, how can you divide the north and the south, spoil the people of one side, and have a cold heart?

At this time, Zhao Dezhao naturally heard what Yang Jing meant, "Yan Feng, do you mean that I shouldn't favor the northerners?"

"I dare not."

Yang Jing saluted, "The officials, the southern people are ignorant, and there are also capable people with unprecedented talents. The saint once said that there should be no kind of teaching. This can be said to be an immortal truth, which has been admired by thousands of people and has been passed down for thousands of years. I think that officials should also be like this. There are no such thing as taking them, but all those who have real talents and knowledge are used by me in the Song Dynasty. In this way, my dynasty will certainly be prosperous for thousands of generations.

After saying this, Yang Jing stopped talking. Although he promised the scholars in the south, he did everything he could do. After all, this Jiangshan surname is Zhao, and the final determination is still at Zhao Dezhao's place.

At this moment, Zhao Dezhao's face was uncertain, and Peng Yan, who was standing on the side, was pale with fear. He never thought that Yang Jing entered the palace to let the official break the rules set by the previous emperor.

For a long time, Zhao Dezhao said, "If it's that, what should I do now?"

As soon as the imperial list comes out, it is naturally difficult to change, so even if Zhao Dezhao wants to change, he doesn't know how to do it.

"The official is clear, the imperial list only lists a list of scholars, and the titles such as the champion can only be determined by the palace examination. I hope that the officials can announce that all these people in the list will go to the hall. When waiting for the palace examination, they will treat them equally. In this way, they will definitely get usable talents. Check the ceremonial department. If there is favoritism and malpractice, it will be punished. If not, it can also be regarded as an explanation for the scholar.

The Ministry of Ceremonies is to find a lamb waiting for Zhao Dezhao.

Hearing these words, Zhao Dezhao was silent again. Finally, he took a deep breath, "Good, so I rely on Yanfeng."
