The tyrant of the Great Zhou Dynasty starts by summoning a fierce general!

Since Zhang Shuo and Ma Chao were both sent to the grassland by Lu Yao, Di Renjie was also immediately corrected by Lu Yao and became the parent official of the current imperial capital.

In this imperial examination, Lu Yao gave Di Renjie a lot of autonomy.

Including formulating the discipline of the examination room, formulating the examination rules, and planning the content of the examination, these three powers are concentrated in the hands of Di Renjie alone, which is enough to see Lu Yao's attention and trust in Di Renjie.

And Di Renjie naturally did not live up to Lu Yao's trust, and all the staff outside the entire Zhaoxian Cultural Hall were on guard, and Gao Shun personally led the soldiers of the trapping camp to stand outside the gate, and this momentum and sense of oppression were directly filled.

Many students saw the trapped army in pitch-black iron armor, and they couldn't walk in a panic.

Because they always felt that under the pitch-black armor, there was a pair of scarlet eyes staring at them.

Originally, many students who wanted to gain improper advantages through cheating were scared to pee on the spot and left without looking back.

Zhao Kuangyin, who was in the crowd, looked at the majestic soldiers around him, and inevitably sighed in his heart.

"What an iron-blooded teacher!" Although

Zhao Kuangyin is a scholar, his martial arts are also good, and he is a typical person who is both civil and military.

Looking at history, although Zhao Kuangyin's cultural level is not top-notch, his ability to govern the country is first-class.

In addition to being in charge of the security of the examination room, Di Renjie also borrowed Li Yuanfang from Lu Yao's side, and was responsible for maintaining discipline in the examination room and signing in on the spot.

Hundreds of brocade guards have been distributed all over the examination room, and they are like pinhole cameras enveloping the entire examination room.

"Everyone lined up one by one, first reported their names and places of origin, and then went in to be searched, and after receiving the number plate, they went to the specified examination room location to wait for the exam!"

Therefore, the first round of Di Renjie's three exams is to screen out these stinky fish and rotten shrimp mixed in it.

After waiting in line for a long time, I finally waited for the two Zhao Kuangyin brothers.

The official in charge of statistics asked.

"Name.

Zhao Kuangyin hurriedly spoke.

"Under Zhao Kuangyin, this is my younger brother Zhao Guangyi, both of whom are from Sili. The

little official nodded when he heard this, and then wrote the names of the two on rice paper and handed them to the two of them.

"I see that your two brothers have an extraordinary bearing, and I think I will be able to go to high school this time!" Zhao

Kuangyin was also happy when he heard this, after all, everyone is willing to listen to good words.

"Thanks to the good words of the official. The

little official smiled faintly.

"There are sixty-eight people in the C-shaped examination room, and sixty-nine people in the C-number examination room, let's go in after the search.

After Zhao Kuangyin handed down the number plate, he said thank you and walked into the examination room.

The moment Zhao Kuangyin entered the examination room, Huang Chao also came to the front of this little official.

The little official just looked up at him, and he couldn't help frowning.

Because Huang Chao's appearance is really a bit hideous and terrifying, although he is good-looking and can't be eaten as a meal, but being ugly must be disgusting.

"Name. "

Huang Chao, Yanzhou people. "

Seventy people in the C-shaped examination room go in."

Although the little official only frowned, it was diametrically opposed to the attitude towards Zhao Kuangyin just now.

One was enthusiastic and the other was cold, which made Huang Chao feel a trace of dissatisfaction in his heart, but he didn't say it and just walked into the examination room with his head down.

As time passed minute by minute, the start time set by Di Renjie was approaching.

All the students who came to participate in the imperial examination were also seated.

The entire Zhaoxian Cultural Hall is divided into 10 districts, with 1,000 candidates in each district.

Don't think that there are more than 10,000 people who participate in the exam, but this is already a considerable base.

After all, in the Great Zhou Dynasty, scholars are still expensive things, even the children of the poor family are different from ordinary people, but they are worse than the family life.

After all, throughout the more than 300 years of the Northern and Southern Song Dynasties, more than 100 scholars were opened, and more than 20,000 scholars were taken.

The more than 10,000 people who participated in the first imperial examination of the Great Zhou Dynasty will not be more than 100 people who can finally enter the court as officials, which is the real one in a hundred, and its difficulty can be imagined.

After sitting down, the students laid the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table, and in order to avoid plagiarism, Di Renjie arranged a small room for everyone very intimately, and the left and right sides were sealed by stone walls.

With the sound of dong dong dong bronze sounding in the ten districts at the same time, the first imperial examination of the Great Zhou kicked off.

The question papers written by Di Renjie and Wang Jingluo were distributed to all those who participated in the exam.

The first exam, as mentioned before, is to screen out those who want to fish smoothly and test them with a large number of four books and five classics.

According to Di Renjie and Wang Meng's estimates, at least half of the people will be screened out in this first round.

In ancient times, exams were a rally, and the duration of the exams was a whole day.

From early morning to dusk, the sound of writing on paper in the examination room has never stopped.

Heavily armored traps patrol the exam room all the time, and anyone who finds the slightest cheating will be immediately taken away for interrogation.

In the dead of night, Di Renjie distributed the lard candles refined by Lu Yao a few days ago to each candidate.

This kind of lard wax is not only very bright, but also has very little oil smoke, which surprised the students who took the exam.

The night spread out like ink, and the entire Zhaoxian Bunkan was shrouded in darkness.

The candle flame is like a boat on the sea, as if it will be extinguished at any moment.

The wind was cold at night, and many students had already turned off the lights and went to sleep.

In one room, the lights were still bright.

Di Renjie looked at the candle in front of him that emitted a bright yellow light, and praised it.

"Your Majesty's invention of this lard candle is really bright and unusual, and the cost is low, if it can be popularized by the people, it will also be a good thing for the people.

Wang Meng, who was sitting opposite Di Renjie, also stroked the beard on his chin and echoed.

"Your Majesty is quick-witted, uninhibited, amiable, and courteous, and it is a privilege for us to have such a monarch.

Di Renjie said.

"This time, Your Majesty's imperial examination is to open up my Great Zhou precedent, this time skipping the family from the cold family to take scholars, and those who enter the court as officials are all people who have experienced the suffering of the people, and they must do their best for the country and the people, and I can't wait for Your Majesty's pattern.

Wang Meng sat up slightly when he heard this, and said sternly.

"Your Majesty's move is too advanced, and now it is carried out in the division, and you can still rely on force to suppress these family valves, once Your Majesty rules the world, then these family gate valves will fight desperately, so if you want to spread out the imperial examination, you need to cut through the mess quickly, especially this first time, if you can't get any results, I'm afraid that Your Majesty will inevitably be criticized by the world in the future!".
