Chapter 409 Zhu Yuanzhang: Ye Xuan, we have something to ask you!

During the imperial examination, only six to seven hundred people participated.

Ye Xuan deliberately let the water go, so a total of 467 people were put into the palace examination.

This number has already set a history. I am afraid that even in another hundred years, no one may be able to surpass it.

But what about you? You can't follow Ye Xuan's example and randomly select the final number of these people.

Otherwise, others may not understand your intention in selecting talents for the country, and may think that you are acting absurdly and should not follow the rules.

As a result, many of these people are bound to be eliminated.

Judging by the previous numbers, Zhu Yuanzhang felt a little reluctant and reluctant to give up.

But even if it were expanded, he felt that it would never be able to double the number.

After worrying about the number of people for a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang finally had an idea.

He wanted to follow precedents and select the Jinshi among the top three according to normal rules. The Jinshi's origins were judged according to the normal number of people, which was about ten hundred people.

As for the rest, except for those who were really useless, they were all given to those in the third class with the same Jinshi background.

In this way, he does not have to regret eliminating candidates and can retain more talents for Ming Dynasty.

But next time, Zhu Yuanzhang became even more confused.

After all, even if the number of people is determined, among these people, there is still a ranking, and the top pick, the second pick, and the top pick are selected.

Moreover, those people can be born as Jinshi, and those who can only get the encouragement of being born as Jinshi are also a problem.

In terms of talents and rhetoric, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that there were indeed many commendable people among these people.

But he has his words first and selects talents for the country, and does not judge the level based on rhetoric and the like.

At this moment, he was naturally reluctant to go back on his words and gain weight. He only looked at the rhetoric and ignored the connotation, feasibility, etc.

I am afraid that many of these people will fail within the scope of Jinshi qualification and Jinshi origin.

Although these people can still be officials and still have fame, their gold content is far behind.

On the other hand, if he selects candidates based on criticizing current shortcomings or having something to say, it seems that there are many people's things in it that are too forward-looking or cumbersome.

If the imperial court really gave them Jinshi status, it is difficult to say whether these people would be as radical as the article says and cause any trouble in the local area.

In short, for a moment, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had always been decisive, could not make up his mind.

The ministers watched from a distance, and they really couldn't figure out why Zhu Yuanzhang started to be in a daze.

The examiners all looked strange at this moment, wondering whether they should step forward to remind Zhu Yuanzhang about the business time.

The most nervous people are the candidates.

Because of the rules of the Ming Dynasty and the legends from the outside world, not only were everyone worried that they would offend Zhu Yuanzhang and be punished by him, they were also worried that some people in the same department would be blind and offend Zhu Yuanzhang and implicate them.

This exam was about policy, so there was no guarantee that someone would not say something taboo, which would make Zhu Yuanzhang unhappy.

So at this moment, many people didn't even worry about how they did in the exam, but began to speculate on what Zhu Yuanzhang saw.

After all, the Dao is as big as heaven and earth, and life is the biggest. If you lose your head, even if you are given an official position, it seems to be of no use.

For a time, the atmosphere outside Fengtian Hall was extremely depressing.

No one dared to speak loudly, or even dare to breathe loudly.

Because of the seats, it was difficult for the candidates to communicate with each other, but they did not dare to look directly in Zhu Yuanzhang's direction.

Logically speaking, if the number of people in this kind of exam has expanded to four to five hundred, the candidates should be led out of the room and then reviewed.

But Zhu Yuanzhang was a resolute person, and he didn't think it would take much time to review some papers at first.

Now I regret it, but the emperor has a golden tongue, and he can't change it, so he can only let the candidates wait in embarrassment.

After weighing it in his mind for a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang finally had an idea.

He picked out a pile of unqualified examination papers and handed them to the eunuch, indicating that these people could leave first.

In an atmosphere of depression and loss, the eliminated candidates began to leave.

But for some reason, they were the most relaxed and even a little happy at this moment.

Xie Jin sat in front of the case, silently thinking about what ranking he might get this time.

After the previous exam, he had tried every means to get the test papers of the candidates.

Although this kind of thing should be kept secret, it has been released on the list after all, so if you want to check it, there is no way out.

According to Xie Jin's calculations, the literary talent and vision of these people are really vastly different from his own.

Even if some people can compare with me, they are too old and not of the same generation as me.

But the problem is, Zhu Yuanzhang’s test this time is policy theory!

Being older than myself might actually be an advantage in this regard.

After all, they have experienced the tyranny of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty and have seen too many things. Maybe they already have their own ideas and plans.

Zhu Yuanzhang has not yet announced that he will decide how many people will pass the Sanli exam.

So even though a group of people had just been sent away, Xie Jin still felt unsure.

Just when he was thinking wildly, Zhu Yuanzhang finally classified the test papers.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's view, literary talent was important, but in comparison, insights on government affairs seemed more practical and more likely to be of value to the court.

After some weighing, Zhu Yuanzhang decided to select people to enter Santuoli based on their literary talent and feasibility of strategy.

But in this case, a new problem also arises.

When Zhu Yuanzhang drew up the list of those who were born with Jinshi, Zhu Yuanzhang began to be embarrassed, not knowing how to make the final selection.

Although we have a plan, it is really not easy to decide the pros and cons and choose the top three.

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang passing a large number of papers together with the list to the examiner on the side.

Ye Xuan knew that Zhu Yuanzhang finally adopted the same Jinshi background and came to the Internet Xian District.

But Ye Xuan is not sure whether this method is suitable and whether it can satisfy these candidates.

But in a daze, he remembered that during the Hongwu period, there was indeed a precedent of directly enrolling more than 400 people in the palace examination.

Thinking of Zhu Yuanzhang's thirst for talent and his violent temper, he felt that even if the candidates were not satisfied, they would definitely show gratitude, and he would be in for a good show later.

"The situations of these three people are similar, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages. It's really hard to decide which one to choose. Let's think about it again!"

While Ye Xuan was analyzing, Zhu Yuanzhang was muttering to himself, but he was also thinking about how to end the exam.

But he is the emperor, so he does not have to do everything personally.

After only a brief embarrassment, he made his own decision.

"Ye Xuan, come forward, we have something to ask you!"
