Chapter 76 Intestines
Now he is being used by Liu Sanwu, a bastard, to sell favors.
Do you regard the imperial court as your family?
Zhu Yuanzhang was already extremely harsh on his subordinates.
As long as you are greedy for ink and money, you have to peel the grass.
What Liu Sanwu does now is a hundred times more serious than corruption and bribery.
Now Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking about whether to crush them and then make them into statues to serve as a warning to others.
"So, how did these examiners determine the candidates they are looking for, the ones they want?"
The prince thought about it for a while and asked in confusion.
This is also a problem.
Even if Liu Sanwu included all the southern scholars and dismissed all the northern scholars.
But how did they do it?
You should know that the imperial examination system of the Ming Dynasty learned from the lessons of the previous dynasties and adopted the name system.
All candidates' names and hometowns are covered.
If Liu Sanwu could accurately select the Southern scholars under such circumstances, they would be really amazing.
“Is this difficult?”
"This kind of anti-cheating measure is too low-level!"
"It's too easy to find a test paper for someone to take a little bit of thought."
Fang Shiyu said without hesitation.
"Xiao Fangzi, how did they do it?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked in shock.
Fang Shiyu is a kid who is so terrible all day long.
Even such a crooked way cannot defeat him.
If I hadn't come to you every day.
I almost thought you were the mastermind behind the scenes.
"Ahem..."
"What, I'm a little thirsty, who's going to pour me a cup of tea?"
Fang Shiyu pointed to the teacup that had been dry for a long time and said.
It’s okay for old man to forget it, but his eldest son is not sensible today.
Have you not seen this young master’s mouth dry today? Have you been telling you for a long time?
"Mr. Fang, please have tea."
Hearing Fang Shiyu speak, the prince quickly made a cup of tea for him with ease, and then placed it respectfully in front of Fang Shiyu.
Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head and pretended not to see it.
The imperial examination related person is the foundation of the Ming Dynasty. If your son is wronged, he should be a little more wronged.
"This matter is actually difficult, but it's not difficult for him."
"For example, candidates can make some marks in some places on the examination."
"Only he and his examiner know this mark."
"When the examiner found the mark on the test paper, he was naturally admitted."
Fang Shiyu took a sip of hot tea and said.
"But Fang Benren, there are more than 50 Jinshi selected this time. It is impossible for them to mark the test papers, right?"
When Zhu Yuanzhang next to him was shocked when he heard Fang Shiyu's words.
If what Fang Shiyu said is true, then this time the matter is not the matter of Liu Sanwu and others.
According to the Ming Dynasty, these admitted southern scholars were also accomplices, and they would also be beheaded.
Even their family will be implicated.
The scholars who were able to participate in the imperial examination were all famous and prominent families in the local area.
If this happens, it will become a big case that will sensation all over the world.
This is not only the crown prince, but even Zhu Yuanzhang became energetic.
Zhu Yuanzhang was not afraid of killing people.
It was just a few dozen local tyrants. In Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, he was just a native chicken and a tile-dog-like existence. If it was destroyed, it would be destroyed.
What really made Zhu Yuanzhang concerned about was how to avoid collusion between the examiner and the scholars.
If it cannot be eliminated, then the meaning of fairness and justice will be completely lost.
This kind of scientific examination is cancelled.
"Xiao Zhu, don't worry about this."
"Liu Sanwu and others can't collude with the Southern scholars."
Fang Shiyu said after taking a sip of hot tea.
"Since they did not collude, how did Liu Sanwu do it?"
Now, the prince was really confused.
"The reason is very simple, there are three ways."
Fang Shiyu smiled and stretched out three fingers.
"The first method is because Mo
"Mo? Is there any difference between this Mo and Mo? It's just black!"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked with confusion on his face.
"My old man, My old man, I know at a glance that you are a martial man who is not good at poetry and books.
"The gap between ink is so big."
Fang Shiyu walked into the bedroom and took out two ink ingots, and then asked Zhu Biao to grind the ink for himself.
Zhu Biao will usually appear in the world to relax his mood, so he has some experience in grinding ink.
Soon, the two ground ink was placed in front of Fang Shiyu.
Fang Shiyu used two kinds of ink to write out the poems he wrote a few days ago.
"My old man, can you see the difference?"
Fang Shiyu pointed to the words on the paper and said.
"What's the difference? Are they all the same words?"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at it carefully and said strangely.
Fang Shiyu shook her head helplessly, and then showed these two words to Prince Zhu Biao.
Prince Zhu Biao looked carefully and then found the difference.
Although the handwriting of these two characters is the same, the characters on the left are obviously dark and have a strong fragrance.
Overall, it looks dignified and elegant.
The ink color of the letter next to it is slightly dull and the texture is relatively rough.
I can't find any problem if I write it alone.
But if you compare them together, you will find the problem instantly.
"Fang Benren, are you saying there is something wrong with this ink?"
Zhu Biao asked carefully.
"Xiao Zhu you said it well, this is the problem of ink."
Fang Shiyu said, looking at Zhu Biao with a gratifying look.
If you didn’t use the Four Treasures of Study regularly, you would definitely not be able to find the difference between these two inks.
He used to often hear the old man say that only three generations can cultivate a noble.
Zhu's family is only a second generation, so Xiao Zhu has gone from fighting and killing martial artists like Zhu to a handsome nobleman.
Of course, these are all the results of Xiao Zhu's changes the day after tomorrow.
"My two aspects of ink are from the Xuanmo from the south, and the place is from the Songmo from the north."
"Although these two mos are famous mos, they are obviously better than Xuanmo."
"We will not talk about other things for now, but we can judge their birth based on the ink used by scholars first."
Fang Shiyu said with a smile.
I was so full that I had too many fun intestines of these scholars.
Hearing Fang Shiyu say this, Zhu Yuanzhang slapped the table hard.
