A few days before the marking began, the examiners in each room were deciding which papers to recommend and which papers to choose.

If you don’t finish all the papers in your hand, how can you select the pros and cons and rank the ranking?

Therefore, until the 22nd day, both examiners sat there all day and were drowsy.

After finally getting dark, Li Chunfang yawned and stood up, saying to the examiners: "Thank you all for your hard work again today."

After hearing these words, the examiners put down their pens in unison, stacked the red scrolls neatly, and then saluted the two examiners and the supervisors, and went out to Jianheng Hall one after another.

Li Chunfang, Yin Shidan, and the two censors who served as surveillance officers, jointly counted the red book. After confirming that there were no more or less, they locked it in Jianheng Hall with three locks.

~~

After dinner, Li Chunfang returned to his official residence to prepare for rest. The head of the service who came in with him to serve Li Mao. While helping the master bring water for foot washing, he silently stuffed a piece of paper into his hand.

Needless to ask, this must have been secretly transmitted from the outer curtain.

Li Chunfang sighed secretly, what should come is coming. No matter how strict the system is, as long as it is implemented by people, there will be room for it.

Although the examiners were stared tightly, the close followers they brought in were doing nothing all day long, and they communicated in private, which made people feel unhappy and helpless.

‘It’s always a rude, why can’t I get rid of it yet…’

Li Chunfang said silently in her heart, and heard this sentence from somewhere. She held the piece of paper in her palm and glanced at it, and then burned it directly.

Just at that glance, Li Chunfang had already remembered the five-sentence eight-legged essays that had no beginning or end, no connection.

How can you win the top scorer without the ability to remember everything?

Then, the master and servant should do whatever they should do as if this had not happened.

But that night, the second-servant had insomnia...

~~

The next day, when he appeared outside Jianheng Hall with a pair of dark circles on his face, everyone was waiting for him early.

Today is a day to share the spoils, and examiners of all sizes are so excited...

"Honor Xinghua didn't sleep well last night." Yin Shidan was one step away from entering the cabinet. The two of them were in the same year, so he was the only one who was qualified to joke with Li Chunfang.

"It's an important task, so I dare not slackew." Li Chunfang smiled and took out the key, and smiled at Master Yin while unlocking the lock: "Actually, I was clamored by the next door last night."

"Hahaha, it turns out that it was the crime of the lower magistrate..." Yin Shidan also opened the lock and smiled: "It seems that I will move the official house a little further tonight."

"Forget it, let's bring another more noisy." With Li Chunfang's deliberate intimacy, the relationship between the two has been brought into a lot in the past half month.

After the supervisor opened the lock, everyone went into Jianheng Hall to start the new day's marking work.

Starting from this day, the examiners of the house began to recommend the papers they valued.

The first person to come up was the first room examiner Shen Shixing.

After paying tribute to the two examiners, he presented the thirty regular and ten regular and alternatives he had chosen, and then stood under the case, waiting for the decision of the two examiners.

"Ru Mo, let's sit down." Li Chunfang asked the soldiers to bring a chair for him. Why did the top scorer make things difficult for the top scorer?

He and Yin Shidan quickly scanned the papers and wrote concise comments on them, which were very similar to Shen Shixing. Then they won twenty-eight copies from the main selection, picked two copies from the alternative, collected thirty places, and gave them to Shen Shixing.

Shen Shixing's quiet face unconsciously showed a look of joy.

The examiners in the other rooms were naturally jealous.

You know, those who participated in the imperial examination were all Juren who came out of thousands of troops, and each of them had real talents and knowledge.

The selected ones by the same examiner are actually quite different. If anyone who is the chief examiner won’t win whom he will not make any principled mistakes.

However, the admission quota is limited, so it is impossible to recommend as much as you recommend.

In this way, if there are more people in the room, there will naturally be light on the face.

And it’s not just good-looking, but there are real benefits in it!

The Jinshi who was selected will not only cling to the chief examiner as the chief examiner, but also will also call on the same examiner who recommended them as the house teacher...

Although the court strictly prohibited such disgusting activities, no one paid any attention to it.

~~

In the Ming Dynasty, the friendship between teachers and students was the core of official connections.

Shen Zhuangyuan immediately put thirty qualified Jinshi into the house, which was a dismal business. He was cheated and cheated. He took one today and kidnapped one tomorrow, and Mr. Zhao was much awesome.

Although all the examiners can get a share of the pie, the quota is limited in the end, and when they are spread to each, they are only in their early twenties.

Shen Shixing got thirty ones at once, which was far beyond the average, so others naturally suffer...

But who is the top scorer? That's right.

After Shen Shixing returned to his position, it was the second-ranked examiner, Tanhua Lin Shizhang, who was ranked second.

The two big guys also gave Lin Tanhua a good face and picked out a total of twenty-eight copies from his papers...

Lin Shizhang was also overjoyed and thanked Lianlian.

Of course, scholars will not say such poor words as "thank you for the rewards of the boss", but will say "thank you two presidents for all the talents."

‘It’s quite rhyme.’ Shen Shixing couldn’t help but sigh when he saw this. The court’s talent ceremony became a feast for the examinees to divide the new Jinshi with their public power and private grace.

The next moment I thought, didn’t I eat so much that I was so sucking oily? How could I have the face to express this kind of emotion?

In the end, he could not help but feel sorry for Wang Xijue. If he had to avoid Wang Dingjue, Lin Shizhang's share would be his.

And if you miss this subject, the chef's disciple will start three years later than everyone here.

It is hard to guarantee that he will lose to others because of this reason in the future...

~~

Then came Li Zihua, the second-place winner in the previous subject, and Yu Youding, each of them got... Oh no, I got twenty-seven places.

The number of places given by the same examiners in the lower reaches was getting smaller and smaller, but the number of Hanlin editors was not less than twenty, and the number of Hanlin reviewers was not less than twenty.

When the group of Ci ministers Qingliu had finished allocating and leaving only a few more than 100 places left for the six non-Hanlin examiners.

And you have to leave a limit for searching for the lost...

This shameless plunder is the root of Hanlin Cichen's control of the Ming Dynasty.

So, the saying "The shameless one is Qingliu" is nothing wrong.

But even these six people were divided into different levels.

A doctor named Liu Yiru received a total of twenty-three places and was treated as a Hanlin editor...

Because he is a doctor in the Ministry of Personnel Examination Department, he controls the performance appraisal and evaluation of civil servants.

In addition, censors can't afford to offend them, and they have to fire their guns if they give them less.

Therefore, Wang Zhi, the minister of the official department, received twenty quotas; the other two left-level ministers, each received twenty quotas.

As for the remaining two examiners, Chief Jiang, the Ministry of War Department and Chief Cai, the Ministry of Revenue Yunnan Qing official, had no capital and no background, so I could only feel wronged and divide the last twenty-five places...

Because the latter is more important than the former's official position, there is one more.

This is Li Chunfang's smooth behavior and unwilling to be too ugly. Otherwise, even if the two small officials were single-digit, they could only stare at each other.

Therefore, it is often said that the people who pass the imperial examination rely on talent and knowledge, and the Jinshi rely on fortune.

If you were drawn by Hanlin, you would be drawn by an ordinary official and have a much higher chance of winning...
