Xiao Yu was sitting far away from here, and Zhao Ruxi and the others could not hear his conversation with Duan Chen.

But not long after, Duan Chen came back. Everyone looked at him secretly and saw that his face was normal. He didn't seem to be particularly happy or depressed. Only his slightly rosy face than usual showed his excitement and nervousness.

Seeing this, everyone felt that the emperor seemed not so scary and felt much more relaxed.

Zhao Ruxi has met Xiao Wu. She has heard Kang Shilin talk about a lot of troubles when she was a child, but she doesn't feel nervous.

When Duan Chen came back, it was her turn to go there.

Follow the eunuch, salute, get up, and wait for the emperor's question.

However, Zhao Ruxi stood for a long time, but Xiao Wu didn't say anything.

She didn't understand why, but she still didn't look up according to the rules, and stood there quietly and quietly.

After a while, I heard Xiao Yu's gentle voice coming from the opposite side: "Zhao Zhiwei, I have read your article three times."

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, as if he was considering the words: "You said in your article that the existence of aristocratic families is inevitable. Even if the original aristocratic families gradually decline, new aristocratic families will still rise, and after three generations of poor families, they will become aristocratic families. So what the royal family needs to do is not how to eliminate aristocratic families, but how to check and balance."

Zhao Ruxi's article did not raise this issue directly, but instead stated it very obscurely, and there was not much content involved in this issue. After all, this was a very sensitive issue. The emperor felt a headache and the aristocratic family was panicked, but no one would talk about it openly.

As a noble woman, it is not a good thing for Zhao Ruxi to involve minefields in the palace examination article. So she clicked on it in the article.

She knew that the top ten of the imperial examinations were to meet the saints. As the second place in the imperial examination, she would also get more time to face than those with the following rankings. If the emperor was interested in this question, he would definitely ask in-depth questions on this question at this time to determine whether this was her own idea and what solution did she have.

She said, "Go back to the emperor, yes."

"So, what do you think can be done to check and balance?"

"The system of the noble family and the family's family, the tax service system, the criminal law reward and punishment system, and the emperors of all dynasties have imposed certain restrictions on the aristocratic families in these aspects. If the scale is relaxed, the land will be merged seriously, the rights of the aristocratic families will be expanded, and the interests of the court will be occupied; if the scale is too strict, it will cause dissatisfaction with the aristocratic families, resulting in unstable political situation. Whether it is lenient or strict depends on the degree of control of the political situation by the people in power. In other words, this is the problem of you retreat, you advance, and you advance, and you retreat."

Originally, Xiao Wu asked this, just to see if the idea in the article was true of Zhao Ruxi's idea, or was it that Peng Guoan and others specially taught Zhao Ruxi to write this. How could a fifteen-year-old girl have a deep understanding and idea of ​​governing the country?

He didn't expect Zhao Ruxi to answer like this.

In addition to shock, he fell into deep thought.

Seeing that he didn't make a sound for a long time, Eunuch Xie next to him looked at the clock in the room and called out: "Emperor."

Xiao Yu woke up only then.

There are eight people behind. Although the last few can pass by in a hurry, it takes time. I saw that the time for the ceremonies of the ceremonies will arrive soon, so I can't be delayed.

He put aside this question and asked himself the most interested: "Who is Zhao Zhiwei, your calligraphy master?" He didn't hear that Qin Zhe accepted another apprentice.

Zhao Ruxi shook her head: "The student did not become a disciple. Originally, he just copied Mr. Ming Cang's copybook. Later, the Lord of Qingyang mentioned it once, and suddenly realized that the words changed."

The Jinshi is a disciple of the emperor, so before the new Jinshi takes office, he can call himself a student in front of the emperor.

"Haha, it's indeed a smart girl. Your master is going to be proud of you again." Xiao smiled.

As he said, he said, "Okay, you go there first. If you have time to write a piece of calligraphy for me, I will treasure it in the great house."

Zhao Ruxi showed surprise and said, "It is the honor of the student to be able to enter the emperor's eyes." As she said that, she bowed and retreated.

Next, Xiao Yu asked the remaining eight people, and ten people were led by Lord Mo and retreated.

Until then, no one knew their ranking.

Not long after retreating outside the palace gate, the hour came. The princes and ministers all entered the hall. The musicians in the music shop played music. When they were called to the fourth place in the examination, they became the official of the rank of the list of the imperial examination and began to drink: "The top scholar, Zhao Ruxi."

Zhao Ruxi was shocked, Duan Chen was also stunned. Both of them felt that they had heard it wrong.

This ceremony was the busiest time for officials from the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple, and they were afraid that something would go wrong in a certain link. At this time, Lord Mo and his party had already obtained the final list, so there was no doubt at all. Lord Mo stepped forward and said, "Zhao Zhiwei, hurry up and go in, you are the top scholar."

All the new Jinshi were thrilling, and Duan Chen's face was even more shocked.

Zhao Ruxi did not hesitate anymore and immediately stepped forward, followed the officials of Honglu Temple into the hall, and stood in the first row of a certain column.

Because officials were rumored to be heard by Zhao Ruxi as the top scholar, not only the Jinshi outside heard it, but also the officials arranged in the hall in the class. Everyone looked at Zhao Ruxi standing in the first row, and their expressions were the same, and they were all shocked.

Zhao Ruxi immediately felt a burning gaze.

"Duan Chen, the second best player." Then Chuanlu continued to sign up.

The next ranking did not change much from the exam, but the original sixth place was called the 6th uncle because he was a middle-aged man with a handsome appearance and a loud sound.

The ceremony of the rituals that are held every three years has its own complete process. After everyone entered the hall, the emperor came out of it, sat on the dragon throne, and said some encouragement words. The new Jinshi was led by the officials of the Ministry of Rites and retreated.

This is the morning dynasty stage.

Xiao Wu looked around and said bluntly: "Everyone may be muttering in his heart that I feel foolish and ordered a woman as the top scholar. How can men in the world bear the feelings of men? I just want to ask, is the dignity and face of men obtained by women's concessions? What about your mind? What about your demeanor?"

Seeing the silence in the hall and the ministers were silent, he continued: "Zhao Zhiwei, his articles and calligraphy are amazing, and he deserves it. If the great Jin Dynasty and great country cannot tolerate a stunning and brilliant woman, he claims to be fair and the notarized imperial examinations must give up the principle of the women, I will be sad for the Great Jin Dynasty, I will be sad for myself, and I will be sad for all the ministers!"

There was death silence in the hall again.

At this time, Qi Xugu took a step forward and whispered loudly: "The wise emperor is a blessing for the country."
