In the examination room, most of the candidates were still thinking hard, frowning. However, it was not that they were not continuing their literary talent, but that they did not know what view to discuss and were trapped in a dilemma.

Yan Beichen sat in the south of Ziguang Pavilion and noticed a strange look from his teacher Wu Shan. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a little, revealing a confident and proud smile.

As a member of the Yan clan, the political resources he possesses are incomparable to other tributes, and has more accurate channels for the government dynamics, so it is easier to guess the intentions of the emperor.

The issue of reopening the Maritime Mansion Department is actually not new. Since the day of its closure, people have been constantly requesting reopening. This time, it has caused such a big debate. The main reason is that Tang Shunzhi, a Kaihai faction, put forward the new view that "the problem of Japanese pirates lies in the fact that the market is not open."

If the reboot of the Maritime War Department can solve the problem of Japanese pirates, then the emperor will definitely adopt it. Compared with the reboot of the Maritime War Department, this is really too tempting to solve the Japanese pirates.

You should know that in recent years, in order to solve the Japanese pirate problem, the imperial court has transported hundreds of thousands of military pay to Jiangsu and Zhejiang every year. If this problem can be solved, the financial pressure of the treasury will be alleviated.

However, this proposal came a little later. With Xu Hai's execution the year before yesterday, Wang Zhi returned from Japan at the end of last year and was preparing to accept revenge, the problem of Japanese pirates in Jiangsu and Zhejiang was alleviated.

Now that the Japanese disease in Jiangsu and Zhejiang has been alleviated, if you agree to reopen the Maritime Warehouse Department, what should you do if you cause trouble again?

You must understand that the current Ming Dynasty treasury has long been overwhelmed, and even the salaries of Beijing officials have been affected. Once the Japanese crisis that has finally been relieved has caused another turmoil, the Ming Dynasty's finances will definitely be greatly impacted.

That's right, the emperor is afraid that it will not be easy to let go, and the risks needed here are too great.

What's more, the subjects of this assessment were Xia Yan's grandson. Now that the question appears here, it undoubtedly implies the intention of the emperor, that is, the Ming Dynasty should continue to implement the maritime ban policy.

Yan Beichen raised his lips and picked up his pen to dip ink on the inkstone. Just as he was about to write down the wonderful article in his heart, an official from the Ministry of Rites who was inspecting the inspection happened to pass by him. He lifted the robe of the official robe without a trace, and then walked away.

Yan Beichen felt a little anxious. The brush he was about to lift up was then dipped in ink on the inkstone, then put down the pen in hesitation, and his head began to run quickly.

This official from the Ministry of Rites was from Yan Shifan, the uncle of his clan, and the two of them had drunk wine together. Obviously, this man's actions had a profound meaning and should have been appointed by his clan's uncle.

As soon as he thought of this, Yan Beichen looked up again and secretly looked at the clan uncle sitting next to him. Seeing him deliberately narrowing his eyes, he felt relieved.

When the direction is clear, immediately take out your lifelong talent and sprinkle it on paper.

The pen is shocked by the wind and rain, and the strategy is to make ghosts and gods cry.

When Yan Beichen stopped the pen, his face was full of pride. He was already sure to win. He knew that the top scorer could not run away. He felt very proud and couldn't help but look at Lin Weiran over there.

There is no claim to submit the paper in advance in the palace examination, and the time is set to be submitted at 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

When the 357 candidates stopped writing, their fate seemed to have been finalized. Some people showed joy on their faces, while others looked frustrated, but more were worried about gains and losses.

Regardless of the result, since a tribute soldier named Zhang Yuan of the Northern Song Dynasty failed the exam many times and angrily defected to the Western Xia to attack the Song Dynasty, Song Renzong has no longer had an elimination system until now.

No matter how bad they do in this palace exam, they can get the title of a third-class Jinshi and will become a seventh-rank official in the Ming Dynasty.

The papers were placed on the table. After the test papers were collected, Xu Jie, the director of the palace examination, said kindly: "The palace examination has ended, and the results will be announced the day after tomorrow. Remember to participate in the ceremony of the ceremonies on time, haha!"

The candidate thanked Xu Jie, and then kowtowed to the throne above the Ziguang Pavilion and gave a thank-you ceremony.

The chief examiner of the palace examination was Jiajing, so they were already disciples of the emperor, which was one of the reasons why Jinshi officials looked down on Juren. In terms of identity alone, they were much more noble than Juren.

As the officials of the Ministry of Rites walked out of the gate of Xiyuan, although it was still early, many people had tired faces, and they all left each other and left the carriage waiting here.

At this moment, their journey to the imperial examination has already completed the entire process. As long as they go through the last rituals, they will become an official in the Ming Dynasty.

In the carriage of the carriage, Ning Jiang couldn't help but ask Lin Xuran: "Which school do you choose?"

"This is still a question, I'm driving the sea immediately!" Yang Futian, who was in the same car as them, rushed to answer.

"You pig!" Ning Jiang immediately rebuked, and then took out a reason and said: "Our master is Xia Yan. The emperor must have tried us. He must have wanted to convey his attitude of wanting to ban the sea through us!"

"I think you are a pig!" Yang Futian immediately glanced at him, and then continued: "It is true that Xia Yan is our master, but he is an imperial offender. Moreover, the emperor has always been arbitrary, so he needs to convey his intentions through us?"

this……

Lin Weiran and Ning Jiang stared at Yang Futian with shock. They were not trying to question Yang Futian, but on the contrary, what this guy said was too right.

Xia Yan is their master, but he is also a criminal offender. Which one is more important? Naturally, the criminal offender is more preferred. They can no longer show this identity, so the situation should be the opposite.

The Lord’s intention should not be to pass on the sea ban, but to support the opening of the sea.

However, the two of them did not expect that Yang Futian, who was usually careless, would hit the vital point in one go.

"You can't support the sea ban, are you?" Yang Futian also stared at them and looked at them incredibly and asked.

Lin Junran and Ning Jiang were speechless, knowing that this time they were smart but were mistaken by smartness. They were afraid that they had chosen the wrong direction. Now that they think about it carefully, Jiajing is very likely to support Kaihai, otherwise why would this debate be moved to the important palace examination?

Bang!

Lin Qingran reached out and patted his forehead heavily, and a little annoyed in his heart. Why couldn’t he see such a simple truth in the exam room at that time?

Why!

Yang Futian's eyes fell on Lin Qinran, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful. With Lin Qinran's talent, as long as he chooses the right direction, he will definitely win the top scorer, but now, he may really fall into the top three.

Ning Jiang was also very depressed. He was determined to pass the second grade, but he was likely to fall into the third grade. What made him feel frustrated was that Yang Futian, who had always been looked down upon by him, was most likely to be ahead of him.
Chapter completed!
