Policy theory has always occupied a particularly special position among the three subjects of the imperial examination.

If eight-part essays test the candidates’ level of study, poetry and essays test their talent, then policy theory tests the overall situation.

It is the view on the court, and even on the eastern frontier, the situation of the Three Kingdoms.

In other words, it is a means for candidates to offer advice to the emperor.

Therefore, even if the teachers come from the same school, the eight-legged essay and poetry can be similar. But the policy... is so similar, it really doesn't make sense.

"That's right. Don't say that we are from the same school. Even if we are as close as one person, we should have different views on the current situation."

"What's more, the strategies you wrote are all related to the battle reports of King Zhenbei in the past. How can we explain this?" Tingwei Zhou Nan immediately stood up and said.

Hearing this, Shen Liangfu sighed and said, "In that case, I won't hide anything from you."

boom!

As soon as these words came out, everyone present straightened their bodies, and there was a hint of excitement in their eyes.

Sure enough, there is another hidden story in this matter, and there is something fishy about these ten people!

However, what Shen Liangfu said next made them stunned and unbelievable.

"In fact, whether it was strategies or poems, they were all predicted in advance by our mentor."

"Answer with King Zhenbei's past strategies, which he also told us."

"Actually, it is better to use Champion Hou, but his battle back then was too magical, difficult to review, and even more difficult to reproduce. The King of Zhenbei is more realistic."

Hearing this, everyone in the Qiande Hall frowned.

"Absurd!" Guang Luxun and Zhou Yan stood up and rebuked directly: "The examination questions for the past years have been formulated by the Imperial College and the Hanlin Academy and are regarded as top secret."

"Don't say that Gu Beichuan is far away in Huainan, and he is a white man."

"Even if he is in Qiandu and is the prince's grandson, there is absolutely no way he can get the exam papers in advance!"

"Your Majesty, I dare to put my head on my neck as a guarantee, and the exam papers will never be leaked!" Hu Yan also stood up to defend himself.

As Chunwei's examiner, if the examination papers were really leaked, he would be the first to be held accountable.

However, after hearing this, Shen Liangfu frowned and said, "Did I ever say that my mentor got the exam questions?"

"Without any evidence, how can you make such assumptions about our master and ruin his reputation?"

Facing Shen Liangfu's questioning, the court hall was quiet again for a moment.

There were also many officials whose faces turned red.

After all, in the literary world, slandering someone you have never met is a bit...disgraceful.

"So according to what you said, your teacher didn't get the Chunwei exam papers?"

"good."

"If that's the case, how did he predict the exam questions? Don't tell me that he guessed it out of thin air."

"It is indeed a guess, but it does not come out of thin air, but it is well-founded."

As soon as these words came out, the scene fell into brief silence again.

However, everyone was not shocked, but thinking.

Over the years, the examination questions have been jointly formulated by the Imperial College and the Hanlin Academy. The process of the formulation is top secret, and no one is allowed to enter or leave during this period.

Therefore, only the person who poses the question knows what kind of questions can come out of the exam paper.

And although Gu Beichuan has some talent and fame, he is far away in Huainan and has no way of contacting the person who asked the questions. How did he know the test questions?

After a long silence, Prime Minister Wei Qing's eyes lit up and he said: "Government order!"

Seeing that someone finally guessed it, Shen Liangfu nodded and said, "Yes, it's exactly the decree."

"My master once said that since policy analysis is to provide advice for the country, we only need to understand what difficulties Daqian is encountering today, and then give answers based on the questions."

"And this issue is hidden in the decrees issued by the imperial court over the years."

As soon as this statement came out, even Emperor Renxuan became somewhat interested and said, "Then tell me how your mentor analyzed the imperial decrees."

"promise!"

"My mentor has received more than 300 decrees issued by the imperial court in the past three years."

"Except for some scattered trivial matters, my mentor discovered that nearly two hundred of them were related to the war in the north."

"Of the more than 100 items left, the majority are decrees to requisition grain from various places, followed by iron ore, tung oil, and cloth."

"Food, iron ore, and cloth are all needed to prepare for war, while tung oil can be used to lubricate swords and is suitable for severe cold weather."

"Coupled with the more than 200 decrees related to the war in the north, it is not difficult to see that the Holy Emperor will use troops against the Northern Yan in the next few years."

"And we are not using a small-scale harassment of surprise troops, but we want to fight through the Yayu Mountains in an upright manner!"

"Looking at it this way, there is no other solution except national war."

After Shen Liangfu finished speaking, the entire Qiande Hall was already silent.

Wei Qing was calm on the surface, but his shrinking pupils revealed his inner shock.

Yang Huai closed his eyes as if taking a nap, but his hands were actually shaking slightly, indicating that he was not calm inside.

Even Emperor Renxuan, who was sitting high on the dragon throne, frowned slightly and looked thoughtful.

"There are such great talents in this world!"

"According to this method, if we find Beiyan's political decrees in recent years, wouldn't we be able to analyze their intentions?" Zhou Nan said.

These words seemed to mean nothing. But in fact, they showed from the side that Gu Beichuan's guesses just now were all hit!

"No!"

"Over the years, our intentions for the Northern Expedition have become too obvious. There are more than 200 decrees related to the northern border. As a result, everyone may know that we are going to launch an army against Dayan." A figure. The burly, muscular general with a strong look on his face stood up and said this.

This person is General Anbei, Wei Ziyang.

He can be regarded as a general who has emerged in recent years. He has experienced in the Zhenbei King's army and later made great achievements. Only then can he be ranked as a third-grade Anbei general!

Moreover, the situation of Daqian is special. Among the four generals, the northern ones are the most powerful.

In addition, he is not very old, only in his early thirties.

It’s a promising future!

He had never spoken before because the examination was a matter for civil servants and had nothing to do with him as a military officer.

But now, since it involves launching troops against Dayan, he is interested.

"However, the method of analyzing political orders should be of some use. Even if you can't see Beiyan's specific intentions, you can still get a general direction."

"A few years ago, I sent troops to Yumen Pass, and it was possible that I and Da Yanyu would be defeated."

"But over the years, Dayan has done nothing but retreat."

"It's really a bit...weird."

"If we can get the decree and analyze it, whatever we do will be good."
