Lin Yiqiu's words were purely for the public good and had no selfish motives.
On such an issue that concerns the interests of the country, he cannot be careless!
And this is also for the sake of his own woman, Qiandi! Therefore, we must pay attention to it!
This Zhao Qi's paper can definitely enter the top three, but if it is excluded because of the previous incident, then the marking itself will violate the principle of fairness!
But after listening to his words, the faces of a group of ministers of etiquette turned out to be quite unhappy.
I'm thinking that you, a eunuch, are actually going to stand up for an unknown scholar at this time.
This Zhao Qi was specifically not included in the top three after deliberation among this group of people.
Now that Lin Yiqiu is doing this, he is undoubtedly not giving them face!
Therefore, Han Ming's tone became less polite.
"President Lin, you are just the newly appointed minister of the Ministry of Rites. This matter concerns the majesty of my Ministry of Rites."
"If this kind of student who once desecrated the majesty of the Ministry of Rites is allowed to become the number one scholar, it will simply discredit our Ministry of Rites!"
"Are we, a group of people, going to humiliate ourselves? Governor Lin is too partial."
After saying this, a group of ministers nodded their heads.
"That's right! This person must not be hired!"
"The disrespect for Mr. He is the same as disrespect for our etiquette department! It is a mistake to let such a person enter the examination room!"
"Nowadays, even if he has a little bit of literary talent, he can't cover up his crime at all! I think this person's exam papers should be removed directly from these papers!"
The more he talks, the more he goes too far. He even wants to deny Zhao Qi the qualification to grade his paper!
This situation clearly demonstrates the collusion of officials from the Ministry of Rites!
Lin Yiqiu even laughed a little.
"I asked you guys, are you doing it for the sake of the Ministry of Rites' face, or for the benefit of Da Gan?"
The hidden meaning of this sentence is to reprimand them for their own selfishness.
How could the people from the Ministry of Rites not hear this, even if they opened their mouths and reprimanded him angrily!
"Director Lin! That's wrong! We just feel that such a person is not worthy of being among the top three!"
"Besides, of course we are all doing this for the benefit of Daqian, otherwise, we wouldn't have toiled here for several days!"
"Haha, if that's the case, then this paper should be among the top three! If you don't agree, I can only report it to the emperor!"
Lin Yiqiu was not polite and threatened directly.
Hearing this, these ministers of rites were not afraid at all.
"President Lin, as the Minister of Rites, you don't stand with us. You really make us colleagues feel ashamed!"
"He's still a eunuch after all! He doesn't even know how to think about the Ministry of Etiquette!"
"Even if we report it to His Majesty, we still say this. Governor Lin, you can do whatever you want!"
A group of people are soft and hard and won’t take it!
In fact, this matter is very simple, Lin Yiqiu has already guessed it.
This group of people talks nice, why do they give this paper such treatment just for the sake of the Ministry of Rites' face?
To put it bluntly, it was just to please He Weixin!
After all, He Weixin is the Minister of Rites. How could they let a person who had insulted He Weixin become the number one scholar?
Not to mention the threat this person may bring in the future, even when they saw it, they felt disgusted!
So in the end, it’s all about selfishness!
Seeing this, Lin Yiqiu felt that there was no way these ministers could succeed today!
Since there are no problems with this examination paper, there is absolutely no doubt about Zhao Qi's qualifications to be among the top three!
Just as he was about to continue to put pressure on these ministers, not far away, He Weixin came over after hearing the argument.
And his expression was still polite.
"Everyone, why is there any need to argue about the marking? Why are you so angry?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Han Ming couldn't wait to tell the story.
"Master He, Governor Lin insists on doing the opposite to us! This Zhao Qi, he must make him the top three!"
(This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 313: Disgust
Soon, other ministers also agreed.
Seeing this, Lin Yiqiu picked up the test paper and handed it to He Weixin, saying: "Master He, this Zhao Qi's test paper is extremely neat, and the article he wrote is also extremely exciting!"
"According to this person's literary talent, it is not an exaggeration to be the number one scholar, but because of selfishness, he must be demoted to the bottom of the hundred!"
"Is it true that the Ministry of Rites' selection criteria is to rely on one's own selfishness to judge?"
There was a hint of coercion in his voice.
Later, Han Ming approached He Weixin and said, "Master He, you should be very familiar with this person. He was the leader of the siege on your mansion!"
"Such a student refuses to accept education at all, so what if he writes an article? That's why I feel that he is not worthy of being among the top three, even if he is among the top 100, it is not enough!"
"Master He, did we do something wrong?"
This is flattery in person, without any secret.
Naturally, He Weixin also remembered Zhao Qi.
When the students first rebelled, public opinion changed direction, and countless students besieged their residence.
This guy was indeed the leader, and he and others surrounded him.
Therefore, He Weixin was naturally extremely disgusted with such people.
But the next second, he pretended to be fair and said: "What an outrage! How unreasonable! How can such a good talent be allowed to fall behind the hundred just because of selfishness?"
"As important ministers of the imperial court! Are you going to waste the years of such a great talent just because of this little misunderstanding?"
"You are really ashamed of the Ministry of Rites by doing this! You are ashamed of Your Majesty! You are ashamed of Daqian!"
As soon as he spoke, the ministers of etiquette present were scolded.
In such a situation, not only a group of ministers of the Ministry of Rites were confused, but even Lin Yiqiu felt a little confused.
To be honest, he was already prepared to confront He Weixin and the others and argue with reason. The scene would probably be quite intense by then.
But the current situation was completely beyond his expectation. This He Weixin didn't stand with the other ministers of the Ministry of Rites?
What does this mean? Do you want to wear a pair of underwear with yourself?
Lin Yiqiu felt it was really hard to understand.
But He Weixin's reprimands continued.
"You people! You really should learn from Governor Lin!"
"Since we are selecting talents! Then we shouldn't have any selfish motives! As long as they are talented people, we should pay attention to them!"
"If my interests are delayed because of a little selfishness, can you afford it when the time comes?"
These words simply fully reflected the majesty of his position as the Minister of Rites!
Although the ministers present felt confused, they did not dare to refute He Weixin's reprimand at this time.
It’s just that the doubts in my heart are difficult to answer!
Master He, what is going on? Hasn't he always been a sworn enemy of this eunuch?
Why did you suddenly speak up for this eunuch today?
