Naturally, the eunuchs in the palace need to help with all other matters.
Almost all of the officials and learned men from the Ministry of Rites, the Imperial College, the Imperial Academy, and the Hanlin Academy also came.
After that, they will be divided into groups of eight officials, who will be responsible for reading and evaluating the papers.
Then submit it to the examiner, who will sort the rated answer sheets according to merit.
From among them, ten of the best papers were selected and handed over to the officials for official approval to determine the number one, second and third overall winner in Jinke.
At this moment, Zhao Ji had become the most anxious moment in his heart. Previously, he had heard a short excerpt from Yang Jian's "Ode to Young China" written by his disciple Xiao Gao.
That paragraph alone made Zhao Ji, a versatile and artistic official from the Song Dynasty, shine.
It can be said that when I came up with the question, I thought that my beloved disciple Gao Zhang was a young man, so I came up with the question here.
And he certainly lived up to his expectations. From the very beginning, one could feel the rising energy of a young man.
It's a pity that I am limited by my status, and I want to make this year's imperial examination fair, fair and open.
Otherwise, I really want to take a stroll down in person and see Xiao Gao put pen to paper.
"You go over to Yang Jian again and ask him how the things he was doing were going."
Hearing this, Li Yan raised his head in shock and subconsciously wanted to ask the official what was going on.
But the official just looked at him silently, with no intention of explaining.
Li Yan could only bow sadly. "I understand, I will do it now."
Seeing Li Yan leaving quickly, the official Zhao Ji stopped writing, slowly moved his wrist, and his eyes fell on the sentence he had written.
It was exactly what Yang Jian told him before.
“...just think about the past, everything is as it has been, so I just know that it is the same;
Just thinking about the future, everything is unprecedented, so I always dare to make exceptions..."
Zhao Ji stood with his hands behind his hands, looking at this passage, and couldn't help but reveal a happy smile.
The Song Dynasty had long-standing shortcomings, but the New Party's reforms were greatly hindered. Now in the Song Dynasty, as an official, he was able to control the overall situation.
However, since the Renzong Dynasty, the talents that have emerged one after another for managing the world and benefiting the people seem to have dried up.
It is really disappointing that only an old man like Cai Aiqing can support the overall situation in the court.
And Gao Zhang, his beloved disciple who was given the mantle in his dream, first impressed people with his two innovative policies.
As for today's poem, just by looking at these few sentences, Zhao Ji, as his teacher, can already taste the ambition of loving his disciple.
Finally, I no longer worry about the Song Dynasty’s reforms, and there will be no one to follow...
Well, looking back, I have to go to Yuqing Zhaoying Palace to pay my respects to the Taoist Master and see if God has any hints. In addition, I have to continue practicing Qi...
Unknowingly, the Hunjun of the Song Dynasty, who was worried about the country and the people just a moment ago, had already started thinking about how to seek immortality...

At this moment, Yang Jian was standing in the room where stacks of test papers were being sorted out and distributed to the readers.
The Minister Chen had already wandered over, and he personally took the ten sealed examination papers in his hands.
Here, mixed with the test papers of the young prodigy Gao Zhang and Cai Yao, the Qilin son of the Cai family.
Yang Jian subconsciously glanced at the test paper in his hand and handed it over with a questioning look.
When he saw Chen Shilang nodded slightly in affirmation, Yang Jian felt relieved.
He turned his head and was about to tell a young eunuch beside him to report the news to the officials.
Then he saw Li Yan walking quickly towards this side.
After Yang Jian said hello to Chen Shilang, he walked towards Li Yan and led Li Yan to a deserted place, and then asked what was going on.
Li Yan smiled flatteringly at Yang Jian, who had more power and favor than him.
"The official ordered us to come over and ask how the matter that the official asked you to do went."
Yang Jian replied with a reserved smile. "You go back to the official's house on behalf of our family, and the matter is done."
"That's it?" Li Yan looked at Yang Jian in confusion.
"Otherwise?" Yang Jian glared at Li Yan unhappily.
"Why, do you still want to find out from our family what's wrong?"
Li Yan lowered his eyebrows and said calmly.
"From what you said, our family is just curious. We don't know what kind of things the officials have arranged for you. It's so mysterious."
Yang Jian chuckled and patted this competitor who always wanted to secretly poke trouble behind his back.
"If you want to know, ask the official yourself. If the official agrees, you will naturally know.
The officials didn't allow it, but even if we were brave enough, we wouldn't dare to reveal a single word. "
Seeing Yang Jian turning away, the smile on Li Yan's face gradually disappeared.
The spittle spurted out, but unfortunately Yang Jian's old dog was too far away and there was really no way to spit on him.
"Old dog, just be proud of yourself, there is always a chance that things will turn around.
Then we'll see how you, an old dog, come to beg us. "
Li Yan left the place with a dark face, cursing, and Yang Jian, who was about to enter the house, turned around and glanced at the figure of Li Yan leaving in a hurry with the corner of his eye, thoughtfully.
At this moment, there was a lieutenant waiting beside the official. His eyes were fixed on the calligraphy treasure left on the table by the official.
The fingers hidden in the sleeves were silently copying out of thin air, imagining that they had a pen and were practicing the official thin gold body.
And this is the third lieutenant officer Liang Shicheng, who is ranked after Yang Jian and Li Yan.
As for Tong Guan, he had already embarked on a unique path as an eunuch based on his military exploits.
This is an elusive path for the three of them. After all, they know nothing about military strategy.
But the intrigues and manipulating people's hearts are not the same.
However, Yang Jian was clever in his methods. When he was in Qiandi, he won the favor of the officials who were still young King Duan at that time.
As a result, Liang and Li Yan could only humbly be placed below Yang Jian.
Compared to Li Yan, Liang Shicheng considered himself to be more intelligent, talented and knowledgeable.
Especially after the official's original thin gold body, he, Liang, had been practicing the official's original font quietly in private.
However, his talent is limited and he has not been able to practice proficiently yet, but Liang Shicheng believes that every drop of water can speak out.
As long as you study hard and practice hard, one day you will be able to master the Thin Gold Body to the level of elegance and gain the favor of officials.
At that time, hehehe, the versatile official family will definitely prefer the confidant eunuch who is talented and can have a beautiful and thin body.
Not those stupid people like Li Yan who only think about how to flatter the officials and how to make money.
Just when I thought of Li Yan, I saw Li Yan walking quickly and came to the official's house to whisper.
When he heard that something big had happened over there, Zhao Ji, an official, couldn't bear it any longer and hurried out of the palace gate.
