252 Chapter 59
Only then did Emperor Zhou Yuan laugh, "What Aiqing said is very true, let's open the list."

"The humble minister leads the decree." Liu Yuan said with a sigh of relief and lowered his head.A cold sweat broke out on his back, and Emperor Zhou Yuan couldn't recover for a long time after he left.

"Master Liu." Su Ning bent over and looked at Liu Yuan with the tray and called out.

"Thank you." Liu Yuan took a deep breath before staggering up to take the tray.Standing in the hall slowly, he walked towards the door.

Liu Yuan looked at the rankings. Liang Cai had been selected as the number one scholar long before Emperor Zhou Yuan asked, and the second place also fell on Tan Che. Tan Hua was Yang Qingsong, the son of Yang Guogong.

This time, Emperor Zhou Yuan's sudden change of the policy theory of the prosperous age made him discover Yang Qingsong's surprise. Although the policy theory was not considered brilliant, his views on the coast clearly caught the attention of Emperor Zhou Yuan.

Holding the result, Liu Yuan sighed in his heart, this year's imperial examination was too scary, and he was too old to be scared by Emperor Zhou Yuan.He obviously wanted to use Liang Cai, but he insisted on letting him speak up.

The emperor's heart is unpredictable.

Liu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and then walked briskly to post the list.

However, not long after he left the palace, he saw Xu Zhixing rushing into the palace from a distance, and Emperor Zhou Yuan gave him the last chance to argue.

But the No. [-] scholar had already been selected, and what Xu Zhixing said was wrong. Although the theory was excellent, it was innocuous.They just judge the good or bad of the policy, but it is up to Emperor Zhou Yuan to decide whether to use this person.

But Xu Zhixing became more disciplined.

However, Xu Zhixing kept organizing his rhetoric in his heart, and when he saw Liu Yuan's face was even more ironic, it seemed that he was ashamed to be with him.

"My minister joins His Majesty." Xu Zhixing saluted respectfully when he arrived at the imperial study.

Emperor Zhou Yuan looked at the orderly kneeling Xu Zhixing and was a little silent. "Aiqing is flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xu Zhixing stood aside and thanked him.

"Why does Xu Aiqing feel that this strategy is not good enough?" Emperor Zhou Yuan said in a calm tone, showing no signs of happiness or anger.

As soon as Xu Zhixing heard it, he knew it was about Liang Caice's theory, and he already had an excuse in his mind.This is his chance.

As the eldest son of Xu Ge, he has stayed in the position of a great scholar for ten years without any movement. How can he sit still?
His father passed away, and the Xu family also had signs of sunset. How could he endure the ridicule of those people?
And now that group of people flattered and finally made a mistake, this is an excellent opportunity for him to show his loyalty and prove his ability.Perhaps leaving a name in the annals of history is also considered a glorious lintel.

"What do Master Xu think?" Emperor Zhou Yuan became a little impatient.

Xu Zhixing looked at the policy theory in his hand and remained silent. This policy theory was obviously copied by someone, so there was no third-class symbol on it.

This made Xu Zhixing somewhat confused about Emperor Zhou Yuan's attitude.

"Please make a clear decision, Your Majesty. I know very well that this policy theory is amazing and talented, and it should be the best. Your lords are also so decisive." Xu Zhixing knelt down again after speaking.

Emperor Zhou Yuan looked as usual, "Master Xu made a mistake?"

Xu Zhixing's heart skipped a beat. How could the judgment mark be written in the wrong hand? If he recognized it, wouldn't he admit that he deliberately suppressed the paper?
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have never made a mistake in writing. When I judged the paper, I did not write for a long time, and I was really nervous. There are rumors in Beijing, and there is no guarantee that no one will be confused by the rumors.

The same is true for the humble minister. Although this policy theory is excellent, it has hidden dangers.Although the commercial tax restricts businessmen, why doesn't it open the door for the government to facilitate those businessmen?
There are also customs duties, which I have never heard of. The small country in that small country has no ethics. If customs are opened, people from small countries often come and go.

Although this strategy theory is excellent, it actually hides evil intentions, and Liang Cai is even more arrogant and ambitious. How can such a person who harbors evil intentions be of great use?

Your Majesty, don't be fooled by appearances! "

What Xu Zhixing said was so impassioned that he almost burst into tears. Just by seeing such a sincere and loyal appearance, people can't help but be moved.

However, Suning quietly changed the tea for Emperor Zhou Yuan. Xu Zhixing is really not as wise as the old man.

Emperor Zhou Yuan looked at Xu Zhixing who was next to him, his heartbroken expression was really very real.

"Master Xu is awake alone, but this gold list has already been handed over to Master Liu for posting." Emperor Zhou Yuan said unhurriedly after taking a sip of tea.

Xu Zhixing was shocked when he heard the words, "Your Majesty is wrong! Liang Cai's hidden evil intentions are really useless. Please call back Lord Liu for further consideration."

Su Ning was considered an old man beside Emperor Zhou Yuan. He thought he was used to things, but when he heard Xu Zhixing's words, he was still a little shocked. How could there be such a single-minded fool.

He wakes up alone, doesn't it mean that His Majesty doesn't know how to employ people?Can't even see a theory like this.He was even more daring enough to ask His Majesty to recall Master Liu, it was hopeless.

Since Emperor Zhou Yuan had already appointed Liang Cai, he was going to use this person. Xu Zhixing obviously ignored such an obvious hint.

This kind of temper has been suppressed by Xu Ge in the past few years, so it is considered quite satisfactory.The old fairy Xu Ge passed away, His Majesty thought of the kindness of the monarch and his ministers, so he wanted to promote Xu Zhixing, so as to prevent the Xu family from falling down.

Xu Zhixing took charge of the three imperial examinations without merit, and Emperor Zhou Yuan was barely satisfied.But this time he committed a big taboo.

"Presumptuous!" Emperor Zhou Yuan looked at Xu Zhixing in complete disappointment, couldn't bear it anymore, and threw the teacup in his hand towards Xu Zhixing.

Xu Zhixing was hit on the shoulder by the teacup, and seeing Zhou Yuan Emperor Longyan was furious, he knelt down belatedly.

"My minister made a slip of the tongue, please forgive me, Your Majesty." Xu Zhixing knelt his head on the ground and felt the low air pressure in the imperial study room before becoming frightened.

Emperor Zhou Yuan was so angry that his chest heaved, "The imperial examination is the selection of talents and abilities, the foundation of the country. I ordered you to be the examiner so that you can select talented people for me. Master Xu, do you still remember your responsibilities?"

Emperor Zhou Yuan walked up to Xu Zhixing, threw the policy theory in front of his eyes and continued: "Since you said that the policy theory is superior, you just judge the case, whether this person harbors evil intentions or not, is up to you to decide?

You are questioning my decision, whether this country should also be decided by you, Mr. Xu? "

Emperor Zhou Yuan's words could be said to be heart-breaking, Xu Zhixing's several heads would not be enough to chop off such a hat.

Now that he had calmed down, Xu Zhixing thought about it and found that he had committed many taboos when he entered the imperial study, and all of them were enough for Emperor Zhou Yuan to kill him.

"Your Majesty's forgiveness is due to my stupidity. Your Majesty clearly found out that my minister has no such intentions, absolutely no such intentions!" Xu Zhixing kowtowed his head to plead guilty as he said with a defeated expression.

"Old Xu Ge is such a wise man, Master Xu has also been an official for dozens of years, it is simply useless.

When will it be your turn, Xu Zhixing, to speak out about Yushitai? "Emperor Zhou Yuan was extremely angry, but seeing Xu Zhixing's appearance was indeed stupid, and thinking of his mentor Xu Ge, he became even more angry.
