When Zhu Yuanzhang was still in power, the Jinyiwei was very efficient in doing business.

The scholars in the north made a big fuss in the examination hall. Before half an hour had passed, the Jinyiwei figured out the whole story.

"What did you say? None of the Northern scholars made the list."

"This is simply a big deal."

"Is this a coincidence? If it's cheating, it's too obvious."

When everyone present was shocked when they heard the words of the Jinyiwei.

The imperial examination was a ceremony for the imperial court to scatter wealth, with the purpose of selecting outstanding people and enriching the echelons of officials at all levels below.

However, among these fifty-one Jinshi quotas, there was not a single northern scholar.

If there is nothing wrong with this, I'm afraid even the 80-year-old man can't believe it.

Zhu Yuanzhang's expression was so ugly that it was almost dripping with water. He ordered Eunuch Wei to go to the Ministry of Rites and give him a list of Jinshi for this scientific examination.

Eunuch Wei knew the importance of the matter, so he hurried to the Ministry of Rites.

Not long after, Wei Gong received the list of Jinshi, the prince's coordinates appeared and took it over and took a look, then handed it to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"The first place in the first place, Mao Liangcai, a native of Min County, Fujian."

"The second place in the second place, the second place in Li Hongji, a native of Taihe, Jiangxi."

"The third place in the first place is Tanhua Peng Yifeng, from Hangzhou, Zhejiang."

"The first place in the second grade, Chuanlu..."

“…”

Zhu Yuanzhang pronounced all the fifty-one Jinshi, the names and hometowns of the same Jinshi.

All of these people come from Jiangnan and the southeast coastal provinces.

Some of the children from Yunnan and Sichuan moved from Jiangnan a few years ago.

It’s true that none of the scholars from the north are on the list.

In fact, there are only one or two Jinshis, and these two Jinshis are called two Jinshis.

As for the Jinshi outside the Three A, to put it bluntly, it is not that easy for the imperial court to study you, so he gave you a title similar to that of the Jinshi, but the value is much different from that of the Jinshi list.

The two-list Jinshi enrollment is the center, and the highest can even determine the top important officials in the future of the Ming Dynasty.

As for other Jinshi, you can only start with the seventh-rank county magistrate.

If you are lucky, you can become a fourth-level prefect. If you are lucky, you will be dismissed by a sixth-level Tongzhi.

I will never be able to win Jinling in my life.

But even if the three-level scholars with such low value are of such a low value, the scholars from the north can't get the exam.

It's simply incredible.

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha..."

“Not bad, very good.”

"I am really keen and have selected a group of good examiners!"

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed anxiously, and looked at the list in his hand with a plain expression.

But his tone contained a huge murderous aura.

This time, His Majesty seems to be going to start a massacre.

In the imperial study room, such an idea came to mind all the important officials of the court.

These are all old brothers who have followed Zhu Yuanzhang for a long time. They know how much the emperor and the emperor are today wanting to be face-saving.

Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to make everything perfect.

For this imperial examination, the Ming Dynasty prepared for more than ten years, and Zhu Yuanzhang also prepared for more than ten years.

But unexpectedly, it turned into a farce in the end.

If no one had used his life to cleanse Zhu Yuanzhang's face this time, then Zhu Yuanzhang would not have called him Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Go and bring me all the chief examiner Liu Sanwu and deputy examiner Ji Shan."

Zhu Yuanzhang said expressionlessly.

Prince Zhu Biao felt a little frightened.

He knew his father's temper very well, and if he beats you in person or beats you, it doesn't matter.

If his expression is calm, it means someone will lose his head.

Not long after, the three examiners entered the imperial study room under the escort of the Jinyiwei.

These three are all officials from southern provinces, and all the Jinshi admitted this time are from southerners.

No wonder these northern scholars suspected that the examiner was favoring the southern scholars. This was simply a united and committed favoritism.

"Liu Sanwu, Ji Shan, Bai Xintao, you three are the chief and deputy examiners of this scientific examination and are deeply trusted by me."

"You guys followed and said, what was going on today?"

"Why are all the fifty-one scholars today?"

"Is it so much that I read the books of Northern scholars so badly?"

"Even if you can't even get a Jinshi who is a senior student?"

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the three of them expressionlessly, and then asked in a plain tone.

Just one glance, the actual murderous aura that night was so scared that the three people in front of them were instantly crawling on the ground, and sweating all over.

"Your Majesty, we are wronged."

Liu Sanwu said with a trembling body.

"I didn't say anything about your Majesty. How dare I have selfish intentions like this? It's really a poor level for the Northern scholars."

"Your Majesty, we are wronged. It's not because we are favoritism and fraud. It's because the culture and education in the northern provinces are too inferior."

Ji Shan and Bai Xingtao, two deputy examiners, knelt on the ground and shouted frantically.

Although the three of them are mainly the examiner Liu Sanwu, they are in charge of their own.

Under normal circumstances, they are the post-graduate who each person wants to admit their favorite Jinshi and discuss the rankings.

But unexpectedly, this time the three of them chose the Southern Scholars, and none of them were on the list.

This kind of scandal that shocked the world occurred, and these three examiners could only insist on being stubborn. It was because the northerners were not good at studying and were not qualified to be admitted to the Jinshi.

"Oh, is that true?"

"Since that's the case, I'll give you half an hour."

"You go to the test papers of the deposed northern scholars and find me the ten best-quality papers."

"I want to see how bad the level of the northern scholars is."

"Do you still can't even get the qualification to be a senior and a Jinshi?"

Zhu Yuanzhang would rather believe that this kind of joke that shocked the world now was not good at the scholars from the north.

Otherwise, if the chief and deputy examiners were in favor of personal gains for the first time, wouldn’t the Ming Dynasty become the biggest joke in all dynasties?

"We obey the order!"

Liu Sanwu and the others knew that this was their last chance to survive, so they hurried out of the imperial study room and began to select the examination papers of Northern scholars.

After about two incense sticks, three people entered the imperial study with trembling body, holding ten test papers.

Crown Prince Zhu Biao placed these ten test papers flat on Zhu Yuanzhang's desk.

Zhu Yuanzhang finished reading one by one seriously, and the more he looked, the more angry he became.

"A few bastards, you three, do you think I am a three-year-old child to play with?"

"Bang"
