Chapter 900 Grasping the Typical (One More)
The emperor has long since annoyed some people who have no ability to jump high, and he is happy to beat them with this matter.

As the saying goes, it is better to hit the sun than to choose the day, so he directly led the officials to the next hall.

As soon as everyone saw that the tables in the hall were neatly arranged, they knew that the emperor and Yuan Suijun were already ready to wait for them.

Really talented people are naturally not afraid of this kind of sudden inspection, but many people have already forgotten the Four Books and Five Classics.

The papers produced by Su Yueling are not only about the Four Books and Five Classics, but more about people's livelihood.Some ministers have stood on high places for a long time, far away from the common people, and the articles they write will inevitably be brought out, appearing pompous and empty.

After finishing the papers, many ministers broke out in a cold sweat, and their steps looked weak when they left.

Officials surnamed Lin are hard-working people, and usually dislike those sour scholars who talk about etiquette and rules all day long. He deliberately said to Mr. Chen: "Mr. Chen is so talented that he will be among the best in this assessment, right?"

Master Chen couldn't hold his face any longer, he coughed softly, "There are people beyond people, and there is sky beyond the sky, and the talents of other adults are better than mine."

He also knew that he was busy with official duties, so he hadn't reviewed his books for a long time, and his answer this time was quite messy.But no matter what, they should be better than those yellow-haired girls in Yaozhou, right?
He really didn't believe that he would lose to those girls.

After Mr. Lin went back, he said to his only daughter, "Do you still have to study for these few days?"

He has only one daughter under his knees, and he regards his daughter as a treasure. He personally enlightened her daughter when she was young. Ten years ago, he was very active in sending her daughter to a girls' school.And the daughter did not live up to his expectations, and her monthly exam results were always among the best.Master Lin felt that his daughter was ten times stronger than the sons of other colleagues. If she could pass the imperial examination, she would be the number one scholar.

Miss Lin showed a confident smile, and showed her father the strategies she had written these days.

Although due to experience, some ideas are too naive and taken for granted, Master Lin also saw some remarkable things in it.He specially circled it, thought for a while, and said to his daughter: "Father will give you a Zhuangzi, you will take care of Zhuangzi to practice your hands first, and go to Zhuangzi to see the lives of the people around you when you have time."

"Maybe your chance is coming."

He sensitively noticed something from the attitude of the emperor.Maybe his daughter might really enter an official career in the future.

……

Contrary to Mr. Lin, Mr. Chen was quite indignant about this matter. After returning home, he saw his little girl reading a book, and even scolded her severely, scolding her daughter with tears in her eyes. Only then did she feel a little annoyed.

"Go on, just say a few words and shed tears. You are not as strong as your brother and your brother. Women are weak."

He waved his hand and let his daughter go down, then returned to the study and began to read a book.

What Mr. Chen didn't expect was that a few days later, he was caught as a model, and the corpse was severely whipped once.

Mr. Chen is certainly not the worst one in the answer sheet, but he can't stand up to the poor ones, he jumps the most.

At that time, when Su Youning was submitting the papers, the papers with the best answers had already been written by Yu Yu, and they were sent to the capital together.

With those papers in front of him, even Lord Chen couldn't hold his nose and say that he wrote better than them.

It's just that his contempt for women is deeply ingrained, and it hurts him more than killing him to admit that he is inferior to them.

Rong Ji asked: "Chen Lei, do you think these women are qualified to be officials?"

Chen Lei opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word, his face turned pale.

Yuan Suijun glanced at him, and a look of disgust flashed in his eyes, "If they are not worthy, then Mr. Chen is even less worthy of the black gauze hat on his head."

The ministers who were the loudest before were all as quiet as quails at this moment, wishing that they would be forgotten.They were glad that Chen Lei's presence in front of them was so strong that he overwhelmed them all.

This is called sacrificing Chen Lei alone and happiness for all of them.

Another minister who initially opposed it even jumped out at this time, and said solemnly: "Princess Qionghua is a woman, and the adjutants around her should indeed arrange for women, so as not to offend her."

"Yes, Your Majesty is wise, knows people well, and is open-minded..." A series of praises came out of his mouth.

Other ministers also followed suit one after another and offered flattery.

Chen Lei saw his allies rebelling so quickly one by one, he was so angry that his chest hurt, these spineless people!He was ashamed of them.

Rong Ji's tone was calm, "Chen Lei can't afford to be the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, and now he is relegated to the head of the Ministry of Rites."

Chen Lei also said that this was the most shocking thing.It took him a total of 12 years from the sixth rank to the fifth rank, and now he has returned to the original point.

His face was pale and the grief and indignation in his heart were beyond words.If His Majesty is so partial to listening and believing, sooner or later the country will fail.Your Majesty is confused.

With Chen Lei's lessons learned from the past, the opposition has been much reduced.

The Emperor Rong Jishun successfully issued an edict and sent it to Yaozhou—and this edict will also plant seeds of hope in the hearts of capable women throughout the Great Xia.

When the court returned to the mansion, Yuan Suijun summoned his confidants and gave them instructions.

Since Yue Ling and You Ning have this ambition, no matter whether he is a husband or a father, he will clear the obstacles in front of them for them.

Soon, storytellers in the streets and alleys of the capital began to tell the story of Chen Lei.

"This woman can actually be an official? Oh, the emperor really dares to do this."

"As long as you have the ability, why not? A truly capable man would not be afraid of being overwhelmed by a woman. Only an incompetent man would be afraid. Such a person should not be allowed to occupy a high position." No one wants to admit that They have no skills, so everyone criticizes Chen Lei, who failed the exam for women, in order to show that he and Chen Lei are not the same.

In their mouths, Chen Lei became a narrow-minded, jealous person.

In this atmosphere, even those who disagreed dare not show it, lest they be labeled as afraid of losing to women.

Some astute people began to think about taking out some family resources to raise their daughters.Although so far, only Princess Qionghua has this preferential treatment, but I am afraid that there will be more and more of them in the future.If the girls in the family are prepared, they will be able to compete!
Chen Lei, who was demoted, was depressed to the extreme, so he planned to go to the brothel he frequented to drink away his worries.

It was only when he went out that he heard someone talking in a nearby teahouse.

"That's why, don't be too Chen Lei. I'm obviously incompetent, and I'm afraid of being robbed by a woman, but I still pretend to be righteous. If he didn't fail the exam, I would really believe his evil."

"The Son of Heaven is still too lenient to him. Such a person with no talent or virtue should be demoted to a commoner. How can he still have a place for him?"

"My uncle's neighbor's niece is working in his house, saying that he is not very capable, but has a strong temper. After failing the exam, she will take out her anger on her daughter and scold her for studying too much. Why can't she read too much? Has it become a bad thing? If I have money, I will also let my daughter study."

Chen Lei didn't expect that the people in the capital would treat him like this, and he would become a decent person in their mouths.

He has always regarded his reputation as very important, and he was so stimulated that he fainted immediately.
