The night was deep, and Wei Renpu sat alone with the candle, and only a short piece of the candle on the candlestick was left. The flames rushed upwards. His shadow fell on the wall and continued to shake, like a ghost. The scissors were right at hand, but Wei Xianggong was too lazy to cut it.

Tomorrow is the day to retry all officials. As the second prime minister, Wei Renpu is also one of the examiners for granted.

Mr. Wei hasn't made up his mind to which side to stand on!

With a creaking sound, the door was pushed open, and Mrs. Li quickly walked in. She came to the master and placed more than a dozen letters in her sleeve in front of Lao Wei.

Wei Renpu was puzzled, and Li took a deep breath and said with a wry smile: "They are really good at hand and eyes. I didn't even leave the door, so the letter was sent in."

Wei Renpu was even more helpless, "In the officialdom, who is not a thousand-handed and thousand-eyed person? The great disaster of life and death is right in front of you. How can you not find a way to fight to the death?" As he said that, Old Wei picked up a few letters. Just looking at the cover, he knew that they were all members of the Li clan and came to ask for a relationship.

Among them are Li's nephews and even nephews, some relatives and relatives, some are not close to each other, and some often come to visit each other to pay their birthday wishes. Since there are three relatives and six, who don't have many relatives and friends!

Wei Renpu pondered for a long time before he slowly said, "Madam, Your Majesty's holy intention is like a knife, and the champion Hou is eyeing him. These people cannot be protected. I will try my best to take care of them at that time. If someone is really good at both virtue and talent, he will not be dismissed. At most, he will be relegated and retained."

This was Lao Wei’s biggest concession, but she didn’t know that the wife was not satisfied. She shook her head hard!

Wei Renpu was also anxious, and he said in pain: "You confused woman, do you have to kill the whole family?"

Li shook his head vigorously, "Master, I, I told you not to worry about it!"

"Don't worry?"

"Yeah!" Li reached out and grabbed the letters, and suddenly used force to tear them to pieces. He threw them all over the floor with anger, and said angrily: "All relatives are deadly enemies! If they hadn't watched the master become the prime minister, would they have flattered them? When we had no power or power, who had helped us?"

The more Li talked, he became more angry, and he cried in anger.

"Prince, it's really not easy for our son in the past three years!" Li lamented: "He is so young, he is far away from home and goes away from Yanyun, so many foolish men and stupid women, as well as Khitan Hu people. He can do so many things, and he is worthy of being your seed! He has not embarrassed the Wei family!"

Li spat viciously, "Anyway, our son has received the top-level assessment, and if he has fame and fame, he will be released from the magistrate and the magistrate immediately. Maybe in 10 or 20 years, he will be able to become the prime minister. I not only have the prime minister's husband, but also the prime minister's son, decent!"

Li clutched Lao Wei's arm hard and cried excitedly: "Master, no matter what, you have to kick away those stumbling blocks for our son! If they don't get out, where will our son put it? Do you think you are?"

What else can Wei Renpu say!

He was completely defeated by Li's powerful logic.

In Li's family, the biggest right and wrong is that they are close and distant. Although those relatives of the tribe are important, they are not as close as their son!

Wei Xianmei was not just a person. Behind him, there were many small officials who performed well and a large number of poor disciples. They passed the county examination and the government examination, and were rushing towards the capital.

All of these people have hope to enter the officialdom and glorify their ancestors.

But in front of them, they blocked the five surnames and seven sects and the wealthy families. They controlled the imperial examinations and monopolized the career of the officialdom through various means.

There are dozens of people in each subject, 70% or 80% of them come from aristocratic families, and there are too few opportunities left to poor families.

Just like Wei Xianmei, there are many minor officials who do well in the local area.

In the past, they were able to be county magistrates at most. If they could be promoted to county magistrates, they would be smoked from the ancestral tomb. But even if they became county magistrates, they were discriminated against because of their background. Those children from aristocratic families and high-ranking families looked down on them at all.

If you have credit, you will not have their share. If you have guilt, you will have to bear it.

Everyone was holding their breath, hoping to change!

Cleanse the aristocratic family and help the poor family up!

Ye Hua, you kid are really far-sighted!

Old Wei gritted his teeth, and he finally saw through the game of chess.

Ye Hua was not reckless and went to war with the aristocratic family.

And the so-called high-ranking clans cannot represent the entire Shilin!

I understand!

I understand!

Wei Renpu nodded secretly. He really couldn't help but give Ye Hua a thumbs up!

"Okay, don't cry!" Old Wei sternly said: "I know what to do!"

Li was so scared that he cried and said blankly: "Master, what are you going to do?"

"What else can I do? If it is to be dismissed, it is dismissed! If it belongs to our son, it cannot be given to outsiders!"

When Li heard this, he cried with joy. The master was so wise.

Not far from the fourth day of the morning and there was no rest, Li went to the kitchen himself, cooked a bowl of ginseng soup for Wei Renpu, and added two soup kids to his carriage.

Before dawn, Wei Renpu left the mansion and resolutely headed straight for the imperial city.

More than a hundred officials who needed to re-examination also arrived one after another.

Each of them carried a basket containing pen, ink, paper and ink. Except for the official uniforms on their bodies, the rest were just like scholars who participated in the imperial examination.

Many people feel sad and can still wear it. When the exam is over, the black gauze on their heads will probably not be able to be kept in this official uniform!

Those who come up with the idea of ​​trying the officials again should be cut into pieces!

In such a huge court, can no one be fair?

Wang Xianggong, Li Xianggong, Wei Xianggong, and Xue Xianggong!

All scholars in the world are watching you!

The hope of the scholars is attracting attention from the world!

Can't you stand up and fight against the tyrant monarch and treacherous ministers to the death?

Faced with the expectations of countless people, Wei Renpu sat in the carriage without even lifting the curtain. The servants of the entourage protected the carriage tightly and did not allow anyone to move forward.

Until the bell and drums rang, all the officials followed the eunuch and headed straight to Daqing Hall to take the exam. Wei Renpu got off the carriage, took big steps, and walked in.

Just behind Wei Renpu, Ye Hua and his senior brother Li Si were watching the fun for a long time. Li Si shook his head and sighed: "There is nothing more than literati's affection. It's really a dream to expect these old guys to fight for them!"

Ye Hua smiled, "They are not ruthless. Who would be grandsons if they can be grandsons?"

Li Si thought for a while and said with a smile: "That's the case, but Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and others were all proud of being flattered by the wealthy family!"

"That's because your ancestors are too polite and too ruthless! If you don't set up the rules when you founded the country, you will only become more and more wrong in the future!"

Li Si deeply agreed and sighed: "I feel more and more that the Great Zhou Dynasty will one day be more brilliant than the Tang Dynasty!"

"I firmly believe in this!"

The two brothers laughed and walked into Daqing Hall together.

During today's inspection, several of his husbands, including Hanlin Bachelor Li Si, were all examiners, while Ye Hua was responsible for the discipline of the examination... The examination venues were all young eunuchs who had entered the palace and soldiers temporarily borrowed from the army. These people had nothing to do with the officials in the court.

They just acted on orders, and behind every official, there were no less than five pairs of eyes staring at him, and no one could cheat!

"I inherited the country and the country of Taizu, and the hopes of all people in the world, and dare not slack off every day. As a minister of the emperor, you are worthy of herders, and you must not just fill in the numbers and have different good and bad quality. Today's investigation is for the sake of good and bad, and people can make full use of their talents. You must show your true talents and not let me down!"

Chai Rong didn't say much nonsense, just said lightly: "Start the exam!"

After the test paper and straw paper were distributed, more than a hundred ministers began to scrape their stomachs in the face of the paper... Although there were inevitably mediocre talents among them, they all studied hard and wrote an article full of flowers, which was not a problem.

What is cheating is that Your Majesty requires pragmatism and requires meaningful words. It is hard to say. Who knows what kind of article can touch the emperor's heart and avoid the difficulties...

These people could only do their best and pray to the gods and Buddhas all over the sky for blessing. After half a day of hard work, they finally finished the article, and they handed it over with fear.

In the afternoon, it was time for several examiners to review the papers.

Everyone sat around, and took turns to read every paper. Wei Renpu's eyes were sore and tears were flowing. He thought in his mind that more than 130 articles could be read, but only a dozen articles were read!

He picked out one by one, "What do you guys think?"
Chapter completed!
