These days came, the performance of Li Si, came as a surprise to Li Mu seriously. 这些日子来,李肆的表现,当真是出乎了李慕预料。 When Northern Prefecture, there is Chen Miaomiao side him, Li Si restraining natural disposition, but also is excusable. 在北郡之时,有陈妙妙在他身边,李肆收敛本性,还情有可原。 But here is Divine Capital, with the Northern Prefecture several thousand li (0.5 km) away, Chen Miaomiao in Baiyun Mountain, Li Si does not have the lingering brothel, without ganging up with respectable family miss, was very then rare. 但这里是神都,和北郡数千里之遥,陈妙妙远在白云山,李肆既没有流连青楼,也没有勾搭良家姑娘,便十分难得了。 After all, his Yuanyang does not have, even if really acts unreasonably in Divine Capital, Chen Miaomiao will not discover. 毕竟,他的元阳早就没了,就算真的在神都乱来,陈妙妙也不会发现。 But he, will not have closed in the room all day, wholeheartedly reference appendix, if not today must go to the Ministry of Justice examination status, he may not have the inn. 但他并没有,整日将自己关在房间,一心备考,如果不是今日要去刑部审查身份,他可能根本不会出客栈。 He indulges, making Li Mu shock. 他放纵的时候,让李慕震惊。 He restrains, but also makes Li Mu shock. 他克制的时候,还让李慕震惊。 Goes to the road of Ministry of Justice, Li Si asked: „Your friend how?” 去刑部的路上,李肆问道:“你那个朋友怎么样了？” Li Mu asked: „Which friend?” 李慕问道:“哪个朋友？” A words exit|to speak, he thinks, what Li Si said is which friend. 话一出口,他就想起来,李肆说的是哪个朋友。 Li Mu said: „You said right, he has become reconciled with that female, but is not that situation that you said that among them, but a little slightly misunderstands, the explanation was clearly good.” 李慕道:“你说的没错,他和那名女子已经和好了,但不是你说的那种情况,他们之间,只是有一点小误会,解释清楚就好了。” Li Si selects the eyebrow say/way: „Isn't that situation?” 李肆挑眉道:“不是那种情况？” Li Mu said: „Among men and women, besides the love, the friendship, not necessarily is such that you said.” 李慕道:“男女之间,除了爱情,还有友情,不一定是你说的那样。” Li Si asked: „Her long attractive?” 李肆问道:“她长的漂亮吗？” The Li Mu nod said: „Attractive.” 李慕点头道:“漂亮。” Gives the devil his due, the Empress face value, in the Divine Capital hundred beautiful, at least can also arrange first ten, wears the imperial robe to wear the casual cloth, is very attractive. 平心而论,女皇的颜值,在神都百美之中,至少也能排前十,无论是穿着龙袍还是穿着常服,都很漂亮。 Li Si also asked: „Your friend long good-looking?” 李肆又问道:“你那个朋友长的俊俏吗？” Li Mu said: „And my long equally good-looking.” 李慕道:“和我长的一样俊俏。” Li Si visits him with a meaningful vision, has not said anything again, Li Mu looks up the front, said: „Ministry of Justice.” 李肆用一种意味深长的目光看着他,却并未再说什么,李慕抬头看着前方,说道:“刑部到了。” Even 36 county places, to recommending the status of examinee have investigated, but to prevent some intention illegal people hoodwinks, Royal Court must check again one time. 即便是三十六郡地方,已经对推举考生的身份做过调查,但为了防止有些心怀不轨之人蒙混其中,朝廷还要再查一次。 The Ministry of Justice entrance, has lined up, is the examinees who today here examines the status. 刑部门口,早已排起了长队,都是今日来这里审查身份的考生。 Li Mu sees many wear three big academy institute clothing/taking. 这其中,李慕看到有许多穿着三大书院院服的。 Although Royal Court no longer elects the officer from the academy scholars directly, but academy student, at the imperial civil service examination, has very big privilege, every academy scholar, does not need the place to recommend, can directly participate in the imperial civil service examination. 朝廷虽然不再直接从书院学子中选官,但书院学生,在科举上,还是具有很大的特权,凡书院学子,无须地方推举,可以直接参与科举。 The academy has a history of hundred years, the contribution to Great Zhou, is far more than destruction, excludes the academy directly from the imperial civil service examination, is not very realistic. 书院已有百年历史,对大周的贡献,远多于破坏,直接将书院排除在科举之外,很不现实。 Actually although Royal Court promoted the imperial civil service examination, still cannot change the special position of academy. 其实虽然朝廷推出了科举,也依然不能改变书院的特殊地位。 In student who in the academy receives several years of guidance, regardless of the conduct, at least in the abilities in various aspects, wants the talent in far ultra place. 在书院中受过几年教导的学生,不论品行,至少在各方面的才能上,要远超地方的人才。 Must want completely to change the academy to lord over Royal Court, must strengthen the place elementary education, this is not in one single day can change, academy naturally also clear this point, therefore when initially Empress nearly was the arbitrary carrying out imperial civil service examination, has not received many resistance of coming from the academy. 要想彻底改变书院独霸朝廷,就必须加强地方基础教育,这不是一朝一夕就能改变的,书院当然也清楚这一点,因此在当初女皇近乎是独断的推行科举时,并没有受到多少来自书院的阻力。 Changes with not to change, the effect on the academy, is actually not big. 改与不改,对书院的影响,其实并没有那么大。 Although Li Mu has the acquaintance in the Ministry of Justice, but has not assumed privileges blatantly, arranges with Li Si after the team. 李慕虽然在刑部有熟人,但也没有公然搞特殊化,和李肆排在队伍之后。 However, after he stands in the team, the student who his front several wear the academy institute clothing/taking, the regiment does not arrange, distant avoiding, the complexion visits him alarmed and afraid. 然而,当他站到队伍中之后,他前方几名穿着书院院服的学生,连队也不排了,远远的躲开,面色惊惧的看着他。 On several days, Li Mu grasped the iron chain, in scene that three main academy entrances made an arrest, now also inscribes in their mind. 那几日,李慕手持铁链,在三大书院门口抓人的场面,现在还铭刻在他们的脑海中。 They really worried, in Li Mu changes a iron chain suddenly, direct set on their necks. 他们实在是担心,李慕手里忽然变出一条铁链,直接套在他们的脖子上。 In three big academies, the name of Li Mu, the taboo that cannot raise. 在三大书院,李慕之名,是不能提起的禁忌。 The messenger of Ministry of Justice, soon then discovered here unusuality, but also thinks that some people cause trouble, immediately two bailiff walk, when sees Li Mu, is startled, please enter the Ministry of Justice him hastily. 刑部的差役,很快便发现了这里的异常,还以为是有人闹事,立刻有两名捕快走过来,看到李慕时,吃了一惊,连忙将他请进刑部。 Li Mu this time is examines the status, is not causes trouble, but is very obvious, he will stand here, the normal order that will affect to examine, has to enter the Ministry of Justice with Li Si. 李慕这次是来审查身份的,不是来闹事的,但很显然,他站在这里,会影响审查的正常秩序,只好和李肆走进刑部。 This examination, is the Ministry of Justice chief umpire, the board of personnel, Ministry of Rites, as well as sect Zhengsi the official jointly supervises. 这次审查,是刑部主审,吏部,礼部,以及宗正寺的官员共同监督。 Before the Ministry of Justice, in the courtyard of alley, stood several officials, belongs to the different yamen, thus it can be seen, Royal Court regarding attaching great importance to of imperial civil service examination. 刑部前衙的院子里,站了好几位官员,分属不同的衙门,由此可见,朝廷对于科举的重视。 Zhou middle walks gradually, asked: „Does Sir Li the Ministry of Justice, do today?” 周仲缓步走过来,问道:“李大人今日来刑部,有何贵干？” Li Mu said: „Participates in the status examination.” 李慕道:“参加身份审查。” Zhou middle asked: „Does Sir Li want to attend the imperial civil service examination?” 周仲问道:“李大人要参加科举？” Li Mu looked at his one eyes, asked: „Not?” 李慕看了他一眼,问道:“不可以吗？” In the field the official then realized, although Li Mu stirred the innumerable winds and rains in Divine Capital, but he, actually did not stem from the Royal Court legitimate official of academy, he was only chief bailiff, a censor, can stir the deliberation hall has great disturbance, if through the imperial civil service examination, had the orthodox status, this can also? 场中官员这才意识到,李慕虽然在神都搅起了无数风雨,但他本人,却不是出自书院的朝廷正统官员,他只是一个捕头,一个御史,就能将朝堂搅得鸡犬不宁,若是通过科举,有了正统身份,这还得了？ „Ok.” Zhou middle nods, said: „The words of Sir Li, then did not need to verify again.” “可以。”周仲点了点头,说道:“李大人的话,便不用再审核了。” Li Mu shakes the head saying: „Before the imperial civil service examination, without the exceptional case, Sir Zhou regards this officer is the ordinary examinee on the line.” 李慕摇头道:“科举之前,没有特例,周大人将本官当成是普通考生就行。” Zhou middle has not said anything again, bringing Li Mu to arrive at an alley room, in the alley room, sat a Ministry of Justice official, was inquiring young people. 周仲也没有再说什么,带李慕来到一处衙房,衙房之内,坐了一名刑部官员,正在对一名年轻人进行询问。 „Name.” “姓名。” „Chen Liang.” “陈良。” „Native place.” “籍贯。” „Jiangyin county, Jiangcheng County.” “江阴郡,江城县。” „Who recommended?” “何人推举？” „Jiangcheng county magistrate.” “江城县令。” ...... …… On the young people front table, is laying aside little bell, should be is used for the polygraph magical artifact, if he said the false, caused magical artifact to respond, perhaps he today, is very difficult to go out of the Ministry of Justice. 年轻人前方的桌上,放置着一个小钟,应该是用来测谎的法器,若是他所言有假,引得法器响应,恐怕他今日,便很难走出刑部了。 After the young people go out, that Ministry of Justice official said: „Next.” 年轻人走出之后,那刑部官员道:“下一个。” Another examinee is just about, was actually blocked by Zhou middle, he looks discontentedly, the leaning head looked, immediately shrinks the head, drew back backward one step, give away the position. 另一名考生正要进去,却被周仲拦住,他面露不满,偏头看了看,立刻就将脑袋缩了回去,向后退了一步,让出位置。 Li Mu walks under Zhou Zhong's hint, will test to direct to place on the table. 李慕在周仲的示意下走进去,将考引放在桌上。 That Ministry of Justice official has not lifted, asks: „Name?” 那刑部官员头也没抬,问道:“姓名？” „Li Mu.” “李慕。” „Native place?” “籍贯？” „Northern Prefecture, Yang Qiu County.” “北郡,阳丘县。” „Who recommended?” “何人推举？” „Your majesty.” “陛下。” „Who?” “何人？” ...... …… That Ministry of Justice official raised the head, local talent the person of recommendation, generally is county magistrate or Prefecture Protector and other local officials, he had not responded for a while your majesty is what officer, when raised the head the confirmation, sees Li Mu, short gawked, immediately stands: „Li, Sir Li......” 那刑部官员抬起头,地方人才的推举之人,一般都是县令或是郡守等地方官员,他一时没反应过来陛下是什么官,抬头确认时,看到李慕,短暂的愣了一下,立刻站起来:“李,李大人……” „Ok.” Zhou middle looks at that official, said: „The person of recommendation, on comp book officer.” “行了。”周仲看着那官员,说道:“推举之人,就写本官吧。” This examination, is only an interlude, person who has ulterior motives truly, through this magical artifact, is very unpredictable, after the imperial civil service examination ended, person who through the imperial civil service examination, by a more careful examination. 这种审查,只是一个过场,真正心怀叵测的人,通过这种法器,是很难测出来的,等到科举结束之后,通过科举的人,才会被更加细致的审查。 After Li Mu, the Li Si also quick examination passes. 李慕之后,李肆也很快审查通过。 Two people arrive in the courtyard time, an official walks in a hurry from outside, to Zhou middle several humanity: „Excuse me, this officer came late......” 两人重新走到院子里的时候,一位官员从外面匆匆走进来,对周仲几人道:“不好意思,本官来晚了……” The board of personnel vice ministers visit him, knits the brows: „The imperial civil service examination is the Royal Court major event, how vice minister Liu can such isn't careful?” 吏部侍郎看着他,皱眉道:“科举乃是朝廷头等大事,刘侍郎怎能如此的不上心？” „Is sorry,......” that official apology said that suddenly covers mouth the cough, has the blood threads to cough unexpectedly from the mouth. “抱歉抱歉,咳咳……”那官员歉意的说了一句,忽然捂嘴咳嗽,竟是有血丝从嘴里咳出来。 Several officials have a scare, said hastily: „Sir Liu, how was this?” 几名官员吓了一跳,连忙道:“刘大人,这是怎么了？” The official beckons with the hand, said: „Last night cultivation has something go wrong, received the internal injury, is not in the way, is not in the way......” 那官员摆了摆手,说道:“昨夜修行出了岔子,受了内伤,不碍事,不碍事……” An official said: „Sir Liu, or returns home to rest, here has us, will not have anything, Sir Liu takes care importantly......” 一名官员道:“刘大人要不还是回府休息吧,这里有我们在,不会出什么事情,刘大人保重身体要紧……” The official shakes the head saying: „The imperial civil service examination is the Royal Court important matter, how this officer can be absent without authorization, the small wound, is not in the way.” 那官员摇头道:“科举乃是朝廷要事,本官怎能擅离职守,一点小伤,不碍事的。” Li Mu has known at this time the status of this person, he is new Ministry of Rites vice minister, previous Li Mu was falsely accused, this person is the biggest beneficiary. 李慕此时已经知道了此人的身份,他就是新任礼部侍郎,上次李慕被诬陷,此人是最大的受益者。 In Ministry of Rites staff shortage, when faced with the imperial civil service examination, the urgently needed official manages, he who was just transferred to the Ministry of Rites doctors of Chinese medicine, makes an exception to be promoted as Ministry of Rites vice minister, at least exempted ten years of struggle. 在礼部人手短缺,又面临科举,急需官员主持时,刚刚调任礼部郎中的他,破例被提拔为礼部侍郎,至少免去了十年的奋斗。 Saw him to spit blood, there is asking that the official did not believe firmly: „Sir Liu, are you really all right?” 见他都吐血了,还是有官员不确信的问道:“刘大人,您真的没事吗？” Liu Qing cleans the arguing corner/horn the bloodstain, said: „All right.” 刘青擦拭掉嘴角的血迹,说道:“没事。” The people see this, in the heart has profound respect. 众人见此,心中不由肃然起敬。 Before today, they raised this Ministry of Rites vice minister, but also only thinks that he was in luck by chance, crawled to this position by luck. 今日之前,他们提起这位礼部侍郎,还只认为他是碰巧走运,才侥幸爬到这个位置。 Now looks like, this person to oneself such ruthless, can climb up today's position, absolutely is not accidental. 现在看来,此人对自己都如此之狠,能爬上今日的位置,绝对不是偶然。 Li Mu also the first time is saw this ruthless person, sized up several, discovered that this Ministry of Rites vice minister, besides to oneself ruthless, the appearance also is quite unexpectedly handsome. 李慕也是第一次见到这种狠人,不由的多打量了几眼,发现这位礼部侍郎,除了对自己狠之外,样貌居然也颇为俊朗。 Although might as well Cui Ming like that monster different, but can also be the handsome man absolutely, compares favorably with several stretch/open spring/lust. 虽然还不如崔明那般妖异,但也绝对算得上是美男子,比得上好几个张春。 Ministry of Rites vice minister also noticed him, said submissively: „This is Li Mu Sir Li, loses the respect, loses respects......” 礼部侍郎也注意到了他,拱手道:“这位是李慕李大人吧,失敬,失敬……” Li Mu held holding the fist in the other hand to him, said: „Sir Liu for Royal Court, may really work wholeheartedly......” 李慕对他抱了抱拳,说道:“刘大人为了朝廷,可真是呕心沥血……” Liu Qing smiled smiling, said: „What this officer does is only the job, comparing Sir Li is the contribution that Royal Court makes......” 刘青笑了笑了笑,说道:“本官做的只是分内之事,比不上李大人为朝廷做出的贡献……” Two people think highly of several mutually, suddenly one side hears broadcasts the sound of quarrel. 两人互相恭维几句,忽然听到一旁传来争吵的声音。 „Why not to make me test, testing to withdraw to me!” “凭什么不让我考,把考引还给我！” „Walks, do not delay others here......” “走走走,别在这里耽误其他人……” ...... …… Li Mu turns the head to look, saw a familiar form, Wei Peng is pushed by two Ministry of Justice difference government officials, the complexion became flushed is arguing anything with them. 李慕转头望去,看到了一个熟悉的身影,魏鹏被两名刑部差吏推出来,脸色涨红的和他们争辩着什么。 Li Mu understood the reason quickly. 李慕很快就明白了原因。 If Wei Peng is comes the Ministry of Justice to verify the imperial civil service examination qualifications, he will have very big possibility not to pass. 若是魏鹏是来刑部审核科举资格的,他有很大的可能不会通过。 His father, Ministry of Revenue gentry official Wei Teng, was just removed by Empress, according to the custom, Wei in three generations, cannot attend the imperial civil service examination. 他的父亲,户部员外郎魏腾,刚刚被女皇免职,按照规矩,魏家三代以内,都不能参加科举。 Wei Peng now is the crime feudal official's son, naturally not possible to examine through the Ministry of Justice. 魏鹏现在是罪臣之子,自然不可能通过刑部审查。 Zhou middle walks, looked at Wei Peng one, asked that Ministry of Justice bad government official said: „What's the matter?” 周仲走过去,看了魏鹏一眼,问那名刑部差吏道:“怎么回事？” That bad government official bow bowing, said: „Returns to the Sir, this person is the crime feudal official's son, cannot participate in the imperial civil service examination according to law......” 那差吏躬了躬身,说道:“回大人,此人是罪臣之子,依律不能参与科举……” Zhou Zhongdao: „The Ministry of Revenue gentry official is punished for an offense, after he obtains tests to direct, the Ministry of Justice examines, but examines the intention illegal generation, he has to test to direct, is qualified for attending the imperial civil service examination, the Ministry of Justice has no right the power that eliminates him to attend the imperial civil service examination.” 周仲道:“户部员外郎获罪,是在他取得考引之后,刑部审查,只是审查心怀不轨之辈,他既有考引,便有资格参加科举,刑部无权剥夺他参加科举的权力。” Vice minister Sir has opened the mouth, that Ministry of Justice difference government official does not dare to talk too much, obedient will test to withdraw to Wei Peng. 侍郎大人已经开口,那刑部差吏也不敢多言,乖乖的将考引还给了魏鹏。 Wei Peng received to test to direct, bows to say to Zhou middle: „Sir thanks.” 魏鹏接过考引,对周仲躬身道:“谢大人。” Zhou middle looked at his one eyes lightly, said: „This officer handles affairs according to law......” 周仲淡淡的看了他一眼,说道:“本官依律行事……”
