Chapter 316： Your magic is one foot tall, and my way is one foot tall

Chapter 316 You are one foot taller than the devil, and I am one foot taller

Around the ranking of the last ten test papers, the examiners fought hard and brilliantly, talking and fighting, and finally, the rankings of seven of the last ten test papers were determined.

It's just the top three test papers, and it has not yet been decided.

These three test papers were supported by several examiners, and three of the eight fellow examiners favored the test paper pointed out by the deputy chief examiner Yan Maoqing; The test paper recommended by the chief examiner was well written, and even the Qing Ci was unique. Although the review of "the scholar is so good, you can hear it" is a bit too much, it is definitely the best candidate for this meeting; The two fellow examiners were interested in another test paper. The stereotyped test paper in that test paper also had a solid foundation, and the Qing Ci was also magnificent and excellent.

Yan Maoqing was very quiet in this final ranking, and the three behind him, who were blushing and thick-necked, argued with the examiner. These three were also members of the strict party circle.

Xu Jie is a good old man, he doesn't talk much, but where is his identity?

Although the other two examiners also argued with reason, but after all, no one has many family members, and they are also afraid.

Finally, the third test paper was also scheduled, which was the test paper that the remaining two fellow examiners preferred.

Now only Xu Jie and Yan Maoqing are left with the preferred test papers, and there are endless disputes between the first and second.

Yan Maoqing was unusually quiet at this critical moment, even though the three fellow examiners behind him, who were blushing and thick-necked, were tearing apart Xu Jie and the others, he didn't say a word.

"I don't know what Master Yan wants?" Xu Jie turned his gaze to Yan Maoqing and asked with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

After Xu Jie finished asking, Yan Maoqing finally made a move.

In the eyes of the examiners, I saw Yan Maoqing stroking the hat with his hands, straightening the hat, then straightening the clothes, unfolding every fold of the clothes, and then putting on a very formal expression.

Master Yan, what are you doing here? The examiners in the Supreme Court looked at Yan Maoqing, who was completely dressed. Very puzzled.

After removing the clothes and crown, Yan Maoqing moved. Yan Maoqing walked to the long table where the last two test papers were placed, and picked up one of the test papers.

This test paper. It was exactly what Xu Jie wanted.

The three fellow examiners behind Yan Maoqing made surprised voices, what's wrong with Master Yan? This is, why did Xu Jie pick up the test paper that the old boy favored? Could it be that Master Yan forgot Lord Yan's arrangement? !

Amidst the astonishment of the examiners, Yan Maoqing selected the test paper that Xu Jie preferred. It was placed neatly in the center of the long case, and then Yan Maoqing made a move that surprised all the examiners even more.

Yan Maoqing pressed his left hand on his right hand, hid his hands in his sleeves, raised his forehead, bowed ninety degrees, then stood up, and at the same time raised his eyebrows again, and then put his hands down.

Holy crap

Why did Lord Yan salute this test paper? !

The surprised eyes of the examiners in the Zhigong Hall almost popped out. Yan Maoqing saluted Xu Jie's favorite test paper! This flattery is too exaggerated, it can't be. Xu Jie is only two grades higher than yours! Flattering is not enough to photograph this state!

As for the three fellow examiners behind Yan Maoqing, they were even more astonished, and their hearts almost jumped out. Hey, hey, Mr. Yan, you made a mistake! If you don’t play like this, the secret code you gave us back then was Yu Xiuzai. Let’s designate this test paper as Huiyuan. This is a great achievement in front of Mr. Yan Ge! Aren't we all old people from Yan Ge, why did you join Xu Jie's old boy team? ! It's my credit!

"This test paper."

Under the surprised eyes of everyone, Yan Maoqing finished his salute and spoke softly. The voice was a little hoarse, but it had an indescribable solemnity.

How about this test paper, you should tell me quickly! The examiners were very anxious.

"This test paper is very good."

All the examiners heard Yan Maoqing's voice, six words. Every word uttered from his thin lips, heard by the three examiners behind Yan Maoqing, was like sitting on the ground in December with heavy snowfall, and the cold wind swept the blizzard on the body, chilling the heart all the way.

Master Yan, Lord Yan, how can you say that the test paper is very good, have you forgotten that Yan Ge is old!

Except for the three fellow examiners behind Yan Maoqing, the other examiners were also very surprised. It is not clear why Yan Maoqing suddenly changed his tone.

"This paper is very good. But in this paper." Speaking of this, Yan Maoqing pointed to a place in the paper with a solemn face and said, "These two characters are my father's name; this three characters are my mother's name. Here, the word 'Yan Zhun' is even more taboo in the name of Yan Ge's father."

"My father, my mother, and the taboo names of Yan Ge Lao Gao Tang are all in this volume, so Qing has no choice but to perform this great gift."

Yan Maoqing said with a solemn face, and then put the test paper that Xu Jie was optimistic about in his hand to the side of the long case, feeling disappointed for a long time.

As soon as Yan Maoqing said this, all the examiners whispered. This matter is a little difficult to handle. In Daming, people are very particular about avoiding taboos. There are four types of objects for avoiding taboos. It is the taboo chief, the third category is taboo sages, and the fourth category is taboo elders, that is, avoiding the names of parents and grandparents.

It’s easy to understand why it’s easy to avoid the names of parents and grandparents. For example, there was a famous poet named Du Fu in the Tang Dynasty. If you’re bored, you can search Du Fu’s poetry anthology. The word "leisure" never appears in all the poems of a prolific poet. This phenomenon is very simple, because Du Fu's father's name is Du Xian. In order to avoid the taboo of the word "Xian", Du Fu didn't write this word in his poetry anthology at all. Writing it is disrespectful to his father. Similarly, the word "Begonia" will not appear in Du Fu's collection of poems, because his mother's name is Haitang, and he avoids his mother and adults.

In addition, Su Shi, a well-known poet in the Song Dynasty, never appeared the word "preface" in his poems, and the word "preface" never appeared in the poems of his family, his father and brother, nor in the articles. When encountering the word "Xu", replace it with other words, just because his grandfather's name is "Xu".

Now, Yan Maoqing’s parents’ names appeared in this test paper of this meeting, and even Lord Yan Songyan’s father’s name was on this test paper.

Yan Maoqing saw his parents' names on the test paper, so he saluted like this! What do you think Mr. Yan Ge will do if he sees it!

Fortunately, the name of the emperor did not appear on this test paper. If the name of the emperor appeared on the test paper, then this test paper has committed a crime of disrespect! If you still want to be on the list, it's not bad if you don't go to jail!

Yes, the name of the emperor does not appear on this test paper, but it has the name of Yan Song, the chief assistant of the dynasty, and his father!

Then you said that it would be okay to mark this test paper as a member? !

You let Mr. Yan Ge see his father's name in Huiyuan's test paper, do you think it's okay? !

The two fellow examiners who were originally neutral, also changed their flags at this time, and turned to support Yan Maoqing's preferred test paper as Cao Yuan.

Several fellow examiners behind Xu Jie were also hesitant. Although the test paper was good enough to be recognized, it violated Yan Song's father's taboo after all. Yan Song was the chief assistant of the dynasty, and after thinking about it, the two examiners also turned to support Yan Maoqing.

Draw the bottom of the pot, Mr. Yan is a talented person! I misunderstood you! The three examiners behind Yan Maoqing were very excited and cast their eyes on Yan Maoqing's admiration!

"My lord Yan, it seems far-fetched. We have selected materials for the country and society of the Holy One. Except for the Holy One and the sages, there is no taboo! This volume is far superior to other volumes for a long time. This volume should be Huiyuan !"

The same examiner who had highly recommended this test paper was still insisting on his own opinion, blushing and talking with a thick neck.

"I don't know Mr. Xu, what do you think?"

Yan Maoqing looked at Xu Jie, asked in a dark voice, and threw Xu Jie back to Xu Jie what Xu Jie had asked him.

All the examiners turned their eyes to Xu Jie.

Xu Jie's face was still as smooth as water, it seemed that the big rock Yan Maoqing dropped did not stir up any ripples in his heart.

"If that's the case, then mark this test paper as Cao Yuan." Xu Jie said lightly, and picked up the test paper that Yan Maoqing liked, and the words Yu Xiuzai could still be seen on this test paper.

The fellow examiner who highly recommended another test paper looked unwilling, and wanted to say something but was pulled down by another fellow examiner behind him, and finally let out a long sigh.

"Master Xu, I have a real insight, and I will second it."

Hearing this, Yan Maoqing fainted with a triumphant smile on his face, the Huiyuan of Yan Ge's brother-in-law's eldest son has been saved! Yan Maoqing seems to have seen Yan Ge's approving smile, and seems to have seen Liangzhe, Lianghuai, Changlu, and Hedong four salts beckoning to him.

"Then fill in the list." Yan Maoqing said with a smile.

"Yeah, hurry up and fill in the list. My old waist can't bear to correct papers for so long." Several examiners behind Yan Maoqing also echoed.

Everything seemed to be under tight control, Yan Maoqing couldn't be in a better mood.

However

Just when they were scrambling to fill in the list, thinking that everything was settled, Xu Jie, the chief examiner of this exam, spoke again with a chuckle.

"No rush, no rush. Before this exam, the Holy Majesty summoned me in Xiyuan and ordered me to send the top ten papers of this exam to Xiyuan before posting the rankings. Zhang Bang."

Xu Jie laughed, looked at Yan Maoqing with a smile and said. It doesn't matter if you are one foot tall, I am one foot taller.

ah?

Yan Maoqing's face turned pale, and the other examiners were all surprised and whispered to each other. This is a meeting test, not a palace test, so why does the Holy Majesty have to read the top ten test papers? Never before.

"Is there anything wrong? Your Majesty is also the person who set the questions for this test." Xu Jie looked at the examiners and said meaningfully.

Oh, yes, the Qing Ci in the second round of this test was written by the Holy One.

All the examiners who dared to comment on the meaning of the Holy One all nodded their heads.
