Chapter 256: 257

Ye Fan's eyes fell on the yellow silk scroll and began to fall into consideration.

Green Wolf Tribe in the Scarlet Mountains

Catastrophe

These two major events are undoubtedly the most worrying thing that the king is currently, and it is urgently necessary for the court ministers to provide solutions.

Of course, there is another urgent thing, that is, the matter of enthroning the prince, but this can only be considered by the king himself, and he cannot be asked about the ministers at will. At most, the king has a suitable candidate for the prince in his mind, so ask the ministers what their opinions are.

Therefore, the ministers can share their worries, and only these two major issues.

Regarding the Green Wolf Tribe in the Scarlet Sun Mountains, this question is simply unsolvable. Otherwise, there would have been many consecutive palace examinations in Canglan Kingdom, and this question about the Green Wolf in the Scarlet Sun Mountains has appeared.

Over the years, no Wuhou candidate has been able to answer how to wipe out the Qinglang Tribe.

Moreover, decades ago, the king once asked King Wu to take action and led an army of 100,000 cavalry to encircle and suppress the Qinglang tribe in the scorching sun mountains, but returned in vain.

Even King Wu was unable to solve the Green Wolf tribe, let alone let the Wuhou think of countermeasures.

So the most critical point of the problem is that they are all Wuhou. No matter how good the strategy they envisioned, they cannot solve the problem without the strength of the Wu King realm.

Once, a Wuhou asked the story of the sky and talked about how to wipe out the Green Wolf Tribe in the Scarlet Mountains. The king was so angry that he laughed and assigned him to the border to deal with the Green Wolf Tribe in the Scarlet Mountains.

Later, no one dared to easily answer how to wipe out the Green Wolf Tribe in the Scarlet Sun Mountains.

This question made 99% of the supervisors directly cut off their thoughts.

Regarding the natural disaster, this happened the night before yesterday. Until one day or two nights, the disaster situation in the counties of Canglan Country has just broken out. For detailed disaster situations, it is estimated that it will take about half a month to one month before the statistics can be reported to Canglan King City.

In the absence of sufficient disaster reports, the candidates of Wuhou were afraid that they would not dare to write random countermeasures.

If you write random countermeasures, but cannot be achieved, and if the monarch is furious, you will be afraid that the palace examination ranking will plummet by dozens of places immediately.

If you dare not write these two questions, then the candidate can only write some of their highest-level research experiences. Will the bet on the king's attention and treat each other differently?

"Although one is far-reaching and the other is short-term. Although it is very difficult, it will take action to solve it sooner or later."

Ye Fan was thinking and considering it.

He has been thinking about the Green Wolf Tribe for a long time and has some of his own ideas.

Even though his thoughts are a bit "strange", the king should not blame him for his previous contributions.

After thinking for a while, he finally started writing and wrote a blank file about the Green Wolf Tribe in the Scarlet Mountains.

Golden Palace.

On the second test seat.

Ling Qingshan looked serious and thought about it for a long time.

The first Cai asked him couldn't answer it. But the second Cai asked him to deal with the disaster, he had some of his own opinions.

He began to write a writing style with his pen.

"I have reported that although the current situation is unknown, the natural disaster is rare in a thousand years, and it has affected most of the Shenwu Continent. After the major disaster, the victims will inevitably arise. First, I ask the court to immediately dispatch officials to other vassal states with rich and undisastered grain, and urgently purchase a large amount of grain for emergency needs. However, it is difficult to travel by land, so it is mainly sea routes. I recruit large and medium-sized sea ships in my country to set off quickly and go to the coastal vassal states to rush to buy grain. Secondly, count the granaries of the county and cities of the country, and strictly prohibit the outflow of grain. Third, prevent other vassal states from causing abnormal movement in the scorching sun mountains..."

Golden Palace.

On the fifth test seat.

Hao Ziming sat on the fifth-ranked examination seat for the students in the supervisory department, looking a little worried.

He was already very satisfied with being ranked fifth in the first round of the palace examination, which far exceeded his previous two palace examinations.

But he was at a loss for how to write the second round of the palace examination.

In the first two palace examinations, he had already written some of his highest-level research, and was not attracted by the monarch.

I can't take the third palace examination, and I guess the king will not be able to watch it anymore.

Golden Palace, the third seat exam table.

Rui Zifan opened his test paper and read the two questions written by King Ce Questions, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

As expected, the two big troubles of the Green Wolf Tribe and the Catastrophe were all in it.

These two big problems are really annoying.

He couldn't solve the problem of the previous Green Wolf Tribe and had no idea.

However, in the latter case of the disaster, he had a countermeasure that could be regarded as a killer move, which would definitely make the king happy.

He couldn't help but sadly remember what happened late last night.

last night

Rui's Mansion.

After the first round of civil and military tests in the palace examination, the group of twenty or thirty Wuhous were extremely desperate, and the total score ranking was even worse than the worst situation they expected.

They gathered in Rui Mansion late at night, drinking one by one, almost trying to hold their heads and cry.

Even Rui Zifan, the strongest among them, was squeezed into the third place in the first round of the palace examination. Qin Ning was even more unlucky and even fell out of the top three.

Next, there is the more cruel second round of the palace examination.

This second round was entirely based on the king's preferences and dislikes, and the final ranking of the palace examination was determined.

The king was not very happy with him, and he was likely to kick him out of the top three.

Once you are not among the top three in the palace examination, according to the convention of Canglan Kingdom, you will not be promoted to the nine important officials of the Canglan court and the ten major counties in the future.

Even Rui Zifan, the best among their group of Wuhou, could not become one of the nine ministers of Canglan Kingdom and one of the top ten princesses, let alone the other Wuhou, who were afraid that they would not even have ordinary official positions.

They could already foresee that Ye Fan, Ling Qingshan, Hao Ziming and other groups of 50,000 Wuhou students would take advantage of the opportunity of a large number of vacancies in the court, and strongly occupy the large and middle-level official positions of the Canglan State and the top ten counties, and become a very strong new force in the Canglan court.

And they will gradually become marginalized.

In the next two or three hundred years of suppression, their family has completely subsided, and their family has gone from a famous family in the royal city to an insignificant small family.

"Brothers, we have only one last way now to save us and our family."

Rui Zifan endured his grief and said to the students in charge.

"Brother Rui has not given up yet. Is there any way to keep our ranking in the palace examination?"

All the Marquis of Wu were shocked.

"There is one problem with the king, that is, his ears are soft, and as long as he pleases the right place, he will be happy. As long as everyone nods and agrees, we will definitely be able to keep our current ranking in the palace examination. We will have a chance to breathe and not lose everything."

Rui Zifan Zheng said with a head start.

Qin Ning was surprised: "Brother Rui, what is the solution?"

"We endured the pain and cut our flesh on the palace examination. Let's write a disaster relief article together, taking out 10 to 30% of our family's wealth to save the natural disasters. Once this policy is made, the king will be very happy with our ranking in the palace examination to save it."

Rui Zifan said, staring at the Marquis of the Chaozhou, worried that they would object. He alone would not be able to donate, and they had to donate together to cause shock and joy to the king.

All the Marquis of Wu were shocked and looked at Rui Zifan's idea of ​​"selling his clan and seeking honor".

This method looks righteous and under the banner of saving the country and disaster relief.

But in fact, it is a measure to please the monarch, which will offend many wealthy families and powerful families in Canglan Kingdom.

On weekdays, these wealthy families are reluctant to let go and are unwilling to use such a large amount of family money to rescue disasters. Disaster relief is the business of the court and the king, so why do you need these big families to pay for money?

But Rui Zifan is now trying to win the favor of the king, regardless of the big families in the royal city, and uses this ultimate skill to please the king, in order to prevent the king from lowering his ranking in the palace examination and kicking him out of the top three in the palace examination.

"Brothers, this is the only way we can maintain our ranking and status in the palace examination."

Rui Zifan advised urgently.

"Okay, my family has 10% of it"

"I'm 10% too, it won't work if I have too much."

"Okay, we will donate 10% of the money, but in the case of the article, we will falsely report 30% to make the king even more moved."

Some of the Wuhou people thought about it for a long time, but after Rui Zifan's persuasion, they finally reluctantly agreed to actually donate 10% of their family wealth and falsely report donating 30% of them.

There are also many Wuhou who are unwilling to spend a lot of his family money to exchange for the ranking and status of the palace examination.

Rui Zifan can't control them anymore, so I'll be blessed. I can't pass the palace examination today, and they will have nothing to do in the Canglan court in the future.

The battles in the Golden Palace are fierce, how can you win without a surprise plan?

Rui Zifan wrote quickly on the article: "I reported to you: The natural disaster shocked the Shenwu Continent, the great disaster of Canglan Kingdom is imminent, and the national treasury urgently needs a large amount of financial resources to deal with it.

Your Majesty is concerned about the great disaster, and I am also anxious and unable to sleep day and night. Finally, I came up with a countermeasure to repay the king. I am willing to take the initiative to donate 30% of the family’s wealth to solve the urgent needs of the national treasury. I also called on dozens of classmates to donate 30% of the family’s wealth together, to offer my loyalty to the country and to the king.”

There is not much content, it works.

He didn't believe it, and the king would not be moved after reading it.

There is tranquility in the Golden Palace.

Hundreds of Wuhou candidates were writing scripts, with only the sound of paper and pen.

The king Ling Ruigao sat on the throne and waited, holding a list in his hand and looked at the list lightly.

On this, the names of the Wuhou students who supported him in the Golden Palace were recorded.

Of course, there are dozens of children of the family of ministers related to the rebellion of the Second Prince, such as Rui Zifan and Qin Ning and his group of Wuhou.

The Wuhou in front needs to improve his ranking. Even if his ability is not strong enough, the loyal Wuhou will be promoted several places in the palace examination.

Of course, the latter has to suppress one pressure, at least ten ranks lowered, otherwise the rebel minister would not be able to teach a lesson, wouldn’t he be on the verge of the sky?

The time limit for the second round of the palace examination is very short, because the content of the supervisors' writing was considered in advance, so they only wrote the writing for about half an hour.
