Zhang Yue stayed with the two of them to eat and arranged a place for them to stay in Beijing.
In the Song Dynasty, there were no guild halls in certain places like those in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Scholars who came to Beijing to take the exam mostly relied on the arrangements of famous officials from the same hometown, otherwise they had to pay for their own accommodation.
For example, when Zhang Dun went to Beijing to take the exam, he stayed in Zhang Dexiang's house.
Therefore, it is also the support and investment of the big guys in the young people from the same hometown.
However, Shangguan Jun declined and lived in his brother's home, but Ye Zuqia agreed. This arrangement can also show the difference in temperament between the two people.
After that, Ye Zuqia came to see Zhang Yue from time to time. Zhang Yue was quite satisfied with Ye Zuqia.
Zhang Yue has always attached great importance to hometown friendship, and the same is true for Ye Zuqia, which is quite similar.
As for clinging, this is normal. If people without background want to succeed, they must either have extraordinary strengths or stop holding on to their self-esteem all day long.
Sima Guang liked to use people who came from famous families or studied under famous Confucian scholars, because such officials have ethics and rules. But Wang Anshi prefers to use people like Ye Zuqia, who comes from a humble background and is more ambitious for power. He dares to risk his life at critical moments and can risk the disapproval of the world.
Wang Anshi has a poem: "The rivers and seas are clear and bright both above and below, and the blue sky can see a fiber in the distance." At this time, I just want the floating clouds to disappear, why don't there be rabbits and toads in the caves? This is what I mean.
On this day, the two of them chatted and talked about Shi Wen. Ye Zuqia seemed to be dissatisfied with the conservative trend in the court, but in fact he was testing Zhang Yue's direction in this imperial examination.
Ye Zuqia asked: "I originally wanted to advocate a new law in the current treatise, but I am afraid that it will offend the people of the time. I don't know how to show it?"
Zhang Yue said: "There are two classes of people in the world. One class wants all beings to be equal, so they want reforms, and the other class likes freedom, so they want to oppose reforms. There are both classes among the examiners. It depends on which class of examiner you meet. ."
Ye Zuqia did not inquire from Zhang Yue about the preferences of the imperial examiners in this department.
But Ye Zuqia didn't expect that Zhang Yue was the imperial examiner.
"However, I can come up with a question that will make it easier for you to ponder it, so that you won't be at a loss in the exam room."
Ye Zuqia was overjoyed and thought, isn't this what he wants?
But Zhang Yue pointed to a bamboo in the courtyard and said, "Write an article on this bunch of bamboos!"
Ye Zuqia was stunned and asked: "May I ask whether this article to be written is a poem or a policy theory?"
Zhang Yue smiled and said, "Anyone can."
Ye Zuqia thought carefully and suddenly realized that this was a bunch of bamboo and the word "ce" in the question.
Seeing Ye Zuqia's face suddenly enlightened, Zhang Yue slightly approved in his heart, he is really a teachable boy!
Immediately he understood the mystery.
I will never disclose the topic to you, but I can probably point you in a direction and let the other person work hard on the policy. This is also the way to manage power.
March.
There were still endless disputes over the new law in the court. Zeng Gongliang and Chen Shengzhi both complained of illness at home because of their opposition to the new law. Only Wang Anshi and Zhao Wei were in charge of the Zhongshu.
Wen Yanbo and Han Qi once again said that the Green Miao Law was unfavorable.
Officials and Wen Yanbo explained: "I sent two eunuchs to inspect Hebei. They said that the Qingmiao method is very convenient."
Wen Yanbo said: "Your Majesty, if you don't believe in Han Qi, the prime minister of the three dynasties, would you rather believe in two eunuchs?"
Li Chang went to Shu again to ask for the dismissal of the three departments of Regulations and Qingmiao Law.
Wang Anshi remains the same as ever and adheres to the Qingmiao method.
So under this premise, the imperial examination cannot help but be affected by this.
When the imperial examination came out, the officials drafted policies: "I have no distinction in virtue. I entrust it to the scholars and the people, and I want to rule the world... The sage controls the world. All officials have their duties, everything is in order, and there is nothing to do." , and everything is accomplished. If something is not reformed, then nothing will be rejected... The current government and the way to save it must have a root and an end, and the appropriate implementation must have a sequence. '
After reading the question, Zhang Yue, Su Shi and other examiners all understood that this question was actually drafted by Wang Anshi.
During the palace examination, a total of 829 people from Jinshi, Mingjing, and other subjects entered the examination.
As for the imperial examination examiners, there are arrangement officers, initial examiners, review examiners, detailed examiners, conferred officers, etc.
Anyone who can serve as an examiner in the imperial examination is a famous literary official.
Zhang Yue, Su Shi, and Li Dalin together served as the detailed determination officers of the Jinshi Department. Before the papers were released, Zhang Yue, Su Shi, and Li Dalin had nothing to do, so they were joking and chatting in the detailed determination office. Li Dalin was Zhang Yue's interpreter. Examiner, now I know how to make the imperial edict.
Su Shi, Zhang Yue, and Li Dalin talked and laughed every day, and took advantage of their rest time to write articles at their desks.
Zhang Yue wanted to take a look at what Su Shi was writing, but Su Shi saw Zhang Yue approaching and stretched out his hand to block it.
Seeing Su Shi's move, Zhang Yue couldn't help but be curious. Taking advantage of the moment when Su Shi was out of court, Zhang Yue took the article he had just written from the case and read it.
At this time, Su Shi returned to the office. Zhang Yue took the article and asked Su Shi in surprise: "Zizhan, what do you mean by this?"
Su Shi pondered for a moment, then cupped his hands toward the north and said: "I have a word that I hide in my heart. I won't say it quickly, so I use the pen as a blade!"
Zhang Yue glanced at Su Shi, what did Su Shi write?
Specifically criticizing the sentence of this imperial examination policy, like a saint governing the world, all officials have their duties, and everything is in order, Su Shi criticized it and said, I thought that your majesty did not know this, so it was so called upside down and out of order... Now your majesty has made two The ministers of the government invaded the financial and profit rights of the three departments, and the envoys from Changping disrupted the administration of the command... Hengshan's contribution was the result of the border ministers' desire to do things quickly...
Su Shi actually criticized the emperor's "personally drafted" imperial examination policy!
This kind of thing could only have happened in the Song Dynasty, which did not kill officials who spoke out.
Zhang Yue said: "Brother Zizhan, you are doing this knowing you cannot do it!"
Su Shi said: "I have already known that I will imitate Fan Zhan's behavior."
In Zhang Yue's eyes, Su Shi's move was a bit overestimating his capabilities, but in the eyes of officials who opposed the new law, Su Shi's move was a move that he clearly knew was impossible. He knew that the emperor would not accept his opinions, but he still went to court over and over again.
What Su Shi wanted was not a result, but to do what he thought was right.
Li Dalin was also silent after reading Su Shi's article.
Zhang Yue returned Su Shi's article to him. What else could he say? Now all he could do was try his best to keep Su Che.
Su Shi asked Zhang Yue: "Do you think my article is not to your liking?"
Zhang Yue said: "Brother Zizhan, I won't hide it from you. Although I don't agree with what you said, every word you said is necessary. If there are no words of criticism, there is no need for words of praise."
Su Shi said: "I know it."
Zhang Yue knew that he could not change Su Shi, and Wang Anshi talked about "one morality" and "legislation", but he would not tolerate people criticizing him repeatedly and constantly testing his bottom line.
After Su Shi finished writing the memorial, the first examiner and the second examiner both sent the papers to the detailed examination office the next day.
To make a detailed decision, first decide on the first volume.
But I saw that the first-time examiner Lu Huiqing designated one paper as the top one.
The beginning of the volume reads: "Our ancestors mostly followed the simple and simple government, but your Majesty came to the throne and made new changes." '
However, the reviewing examiner Liu Tong demoted this paper to second place.
In the battle for the number one scholar, this matter needs to be reported to the officials.
Su Shi, Zhang Yue, Lu Huiqing, Liu Ye, and Li Dalin started a lawsuit in front of the officials.
