Chapter 230 The Imperial Examination (twenty-two)

"Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Liu Jin protected Zhu Houzhao tightly, "I can't protect you!"

"I don't blame you! I don't blame you!" Zhu Houzhao stood up in disappointment and said in a mess: "The world has been too difficult recently. I have been beaten twice in a row! I'd better go back to my East Palace. The world is too dangerous and the East Palace is safest."

"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince! I'll go back with you." Liu Jin said.

Aunt Gu stared blankly as Zhu Houzhao and Liu Jin walked out of the house, came to his senses and suddenly came to Yang Sheng and said, "Young Master, it seems that I can't take care of you in the future! Now I beat the prince up, I'm afraid I'm going to kill the nine clans. I'm going to avoid the limelight outside the frontier. Remember to help me go to the master. The old lady said hello, I may never be able to cook for you again."

"Aunt Gu, actually that, no need..."

"Young Master, stop talking about anything!" Aunt Gu said, "I have been in the martial arts world for many years and know that people in the martial arts world can avoid the imperial court. I will bear this matter alone! It will definitely not involve the old lady and the young master."

"It's okay, I've beaten His Highness the Crown Prince, too." Yang Sheng said.

"What?" Aunt Gu looked surprised.

"Anyway..." Yang Sheng said: "It's okay!"

"Really!?" Aunt Gu was a little disbelieved.

"Serious" Yang Sheng nodded.

Tang Bohu is full of black lines. Isn’t this the line from the previous chapter? This author is so lazy.

"I'm scared to death!" Aunt Gu breathed a sigh of relief.

———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Zhu Houzhao left in disappointment, Yang Sheng and Tang Bohu fell into deep thought, as if they were thinking about life, and as if they were in a daze.

Seven days later, in order to prevent the prince from stealing cannons or muskets, the Shenji Camp was guarding the city! And the capital was full of people and students from all walks of life were surging in the capital! They will be future officials, and they are students!

With the sound of a gong, the examination room for the spring examination began, and Tang Bohu saw the first imperial examination since time traveling!

The crowds in the capital are crowded, watching the scene! The imperial examination is worse than the college entrance examination in hundreds of years.

"You said that these scholars studied all day long and finally got a good exam and then became officials. However, after becoming officials, they lived a tight life with the salary of the court. What's the point?"

Yang Sheng and Tang Bohu sat on the platform together.

Tang Bohu said leisurely: "Actually, it depends on what kind of official he is. Some officials can also be rich."

"That kind of official wants the head to fall!" Yang Sheng made a beheading move.

"Isn't it a pity that you have been studying hard for so many years but can't enter the exam room?" Tang Bohu said while drinking tea.

"I really didn't read any books." Yang Sheng said: "Whenever my parents asked me to study, I usually sleep. As for why guys like me can come to the exam, it was because I spent a lot of money to ask someone to write my name on the exam paper, and then I..."

"Oh?" Tang Bohu thought and said, "So you have this trick. You have violated the Ming Dynasty's laws, but you have to be in prison."

"Don't worry, this matter is unreasonable." Yang Sheng said: "The guy who helped me cheat has been killed by Aunt Gu."

"I admire the experienced masters." Tang Bohu replied.

Seeing the students walking into the examination room one after another, Tang Bohu also saw that Xu Zhenqing and Wen Zhengming had not appeared for a long time. The first day of the examination was a mock exam. There was a notice posted at the gate of the examination room. Because this year's imperial examination questions will be different from previous years, and because Xu Jing caused the imperial examination questions to be leaked, this mock exam will avoid the verbal slap even if it is prepared for the future. Li Dongyang's hand made a fuss to make up for the loss of the sheep.

I have to admire the wisdom of these wise and intelligent people, who learn and sell immediately, can adapt and use everything for the best!

It is not empty talk that these ministers and Ming dynasties can be passed down for hundreds of years.

Tian San and Jinyiwei were protecting the examination room, keeping an eye on the uneasy elements from all walks of life. In addition to Jinyiwei, there is also the East Factory here. In addition to Dongfa and Jinyiwei, there are also people from the officialdom patrol. These people are different from Jinyiwei and Dongfa. They are set up in the court and have nothing to do with Jinyiwei and outside the Dongfa. Generally, there are no major events or cases that they do not show up. They are also the balance between the Ming Dynasty and Jinyiwei and Dongfa, except for the power of the Ming Dynasty Emperor, and the sword in the officialdom! The representative of the Ming Dynasty's laws.

These people come from the Ministry of Justice, the Censorate and Dali Temple. Once there is a major incident, the three parties will join forces to organize a new bureaucratic system, collectively known as the Three Laws and Offices, with three doors, each with two doors. Among the people, they have a very popular name, six doors!

These people are different from the Jinyiwei, and the people they captured are also different from the people they want to arrest!

The Emperor of Ming Dynasty established the Jinyiwei to restrain and balance the power of ministers and thus stabilize his own rights. The Six Gates were to deal with the people and some wanted criminals. The Six Gates were orthodox official positions of the court. These were all bandits and people from the martial arts world! The Jinyiwei was against officials, and the Six Gates were against the people!

The Six Gates and the Jinyiwei represent the imperial court and the imperial power respectively. The existence of the people on both sides is different, and the places they use are different. Each is their own master and has its own needs. The well water does not violate the river water, and it is impossible to deal with it.

"The six yamen are open, don't come in if you have any reason or money." Yang Sheng followed Tang Bohu's gaze and looked at the official who took the six doors and said, "I wonder what Lord Tang thinks about the six doors?"

"The water of the well does not interfere with the river." Tang Bohu said while drinking tea: "These guys are under the management of the Six Ministry and have nothing to do with me! Our Jinyiwei is directly ordered to be with the emperor and is not subject to their constraints."

Tang Bohu said, if the Six Gate and the Jinyiwei turned against each other, it would be a collision between the officialdom and the imperial power. The Ming Dynasty court was not the emperor's one-man rule. The ministers had the right to reject the emperor's opinions, checks and balances! Checks and balances! It is here that the Six Gate is the Jinyiwei in the officialdom.

"What if they offend you?" Yang Sheng asked quipped.

"I will bury them all and then dance on their graves!" Tang Bohu smiled.

After reviewing the last memorial, Zhu Youzhang asked He Ding beside him in a low voice, "Is the imperial examination right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" He Ding also replied in a low voice.

Tangzhuang

Zhong Ling'er said to Yan Song: "The spring examination has started, won't you go?"

"I won't go." Yan Song said.

Zhong Ling'er: "You are so calm."

"It should be." Yan Song continued: "Mr. Tang said that life is not just one road."

"Which road did you choose?" Zhong Ling'er sat gracefully on the chair, looking at the beautiful Tangzhuang.

"I will take whatever path Lord Tang takes." Yan Song replied.
