"My son discovered this time that although the establishment of the school has advantages, it also has certain disadvantages, such as favoritism."

"What kind of favoritism law?" The emperor obviously didn't expect that an institution set up to facilitate the accommodation and management of candidates from other places could also give people the opportunity to favor others.

"Father also knows that the dormitory is a place for students from other places to live and study. In each dormitory of the dormitory, there will be supervisors watching the daily behavior of the candidates, and checking at night whether there are any students who do not return at night. Let's refer to the student's conduct. But there is only one person in each dormitory of this dormitory supervisor. What if someone buys it with money? Of course, the bribe is only a trivial matter. The serious problem is that these dormitory supervisors directly contacted the chief examiner. The daily performance of the examinees is compiled by the dormitory supervisor and submitted to the examiner, if someone has evil intentions, buy their dormitory supervisor to discredit the candidates who are with him, or... directly buy and sell the test questions?"

"That's a really big problem. But there are others?"

"That's the problem in the dormitory, but it's not perfect during the examination. Although there are three examiners in the examination, they seem to be able to supervise each other, but these three are the supervisors of Taixue. Bribing and extorting questions, although I have never seen or heard of anyone buying and selling test questions in this exam, but sooner or later, loopholes in the system will be exploited by those who want to."

"Qing'er is really worried."

"However, I have one thing to congratulate my father."

"what?"

"Although the candidates I met with this time are very different in terms of knowledge, they are all people of good conduct. Father can safely and boldly select talents."

"It's a blessing for the imperial court." The emperor stroked his recently grown beard with a smile, "Cheng'er, what countermeasures can you think of to deal with the problem your sister mentioned?"

"Going back to my father, the time is short, and I only think of one method, but I can't guarantee it will be effective."

"tell me the story."

"As for the problems existing in the school dormitory, I feel that the institution of the dormitory supervisor can be divided into two parts, the east dormitory and the west dormitory, which are managed by people of different forces, so that they can supervise each other and check each other. Sparse. Each sub-dormitory assigns two wardens each time. The two wardens must be from the east dormitory and the other from the west dormitory. The two dormitory supervisors every day cannot be repeated from the previous day. The dormitory supervisors do not directly contact the examiners. In the middle, add a person who is responsible for writing and submitting the news.”

"It's a good idea, what does Qing'er think?"

"My son thinks what Brother Huang said is reasonable, but it would be superfluous to add a person in charge of presenting the news."

"Oh? Qing'er, tell me, why are you superfluous?"

"My son has already said what I said, I think Brother Huang has already figured it out in his heart."

"Thank you, sister, for your reminder. Returning to my father, I know where the snake feet are! The purpose of setting up two dormitory supervisors is to divide power. If we add another one who is in charge, besides not having any personal contact with the candidates, It's the same as before. Now that there are two dormitory supervisors belonging to different forces, you can ask them to write a written record and submit it to the examiner. In this way, there will be two records for each candidate. Even if someone bribes , and it is difficult to buy two competing forces at the same time."

"Okay, okay! I'm so relieved to have a couple like you! What I think in my heart, I must have understood it a long time ago with your exquisite heart, but don't learn from those wolf-hearted people and do things that make my heart chill. .”

"Father is worrying too much." Hearing this, Wei Muqing's face became a little colder, he sipped his tea and said, "With my sons and elder brothers here, how can we allow those little bastards to be rampant."

The emperor looked at Wei Muqing, very satisfied with her natural arrogance, then turned to look at the obviously gentler prince, "Then what should Cheng Er think about the examiner?"

"My son thought that the matter of the examiners in the general examination is the same as that of the dormitory supervisor, because the power is too concentrated. As long as the rights of the examiners are dispersed, and the examiners come from different forces, and they restrain and supervise each other, the problem will not be big. It's just this kind of thing , It can’t be done in a day or two.”

"After the palace examination is over, you will start to do it. There are three years before the next examination. Three years, is it enough for you to give the emperor a fairer imperial examination?"

"My son will not disgrace his life!"

"Qing'er, you should also help me with this matter. If you need anything, just talk to Father, do you hear me?"

"My son obeys."

"Okay, Qing'er hasn't eaten yet. I asked the imperial dining room to prepare dinner. Cheng'er can accompany your imperial sister to eat some. I and your mother are going back to the palace to rest."

"Respectfully send off the father and the queen."

In the prince's bedroom, there were more than a dozen dishes on the table, not many but extremely delicate, all Wei Muqing's favorite dishes.

"Sister, it would be great if you were a man."

"What? Brother Huang looks down on women?"

"How could it be! Brother Huang didn't mean that. Brother Huang thought that the younger sister was talented and learned, and she had unique insights into political affairs. Unfortunately, she couldn't really participate in court affairs."

"If your 'Royal Sister' is a 'Prince', I am afraid that someone with a heart will stir up trouble again. It is because I am your 'Royal Sister' that Father can rest assured that you and I will support each other."

"What the emperor said is true! Today, the emperor assures you that no matter what happens in the future, the emperor will always stand by your side!"

"Then if I do something shocking to the world, Brother Huang will also stand by my side?"

"How shocking is it? Killing fathers and brothers? Disrupting Chao Gang?" Wei Mucheng was stunned when he heard the words, then frowned subconsciously, and asked back.

"No, this matter is only related to myself and has nothing to do with outsiders. In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with it, but it may be inconsistent with secular etiquette."

"Since it's your private matter, then no matter what outsiders say, Brother Huang will stand by your side." After Wei Mucheng heard that it was Wei Muqing's private matter, he felt relieved, feeling a little ashamed in his heart. I was really worried that this clever imperial sister would have any disobedience.

"Thank you, brother." Wei Muqing was a little moved. The Wei family is only the fourth generation when it comes to them. Except for Taizong who conquered the country, the next two generations are full of brothers fighting against each other and cheating each other. Once the dynasty changes, all the court personnel are replaced. , external troubles and internal troubles, it is no wonder that there are very obvious flaws in some systems that have not been discovered, or discovered but not reported.

Wei Muqing has eight brothers and sisters. Only Wei Mucheng, who has one mother, is the most gentle-tempered because of his empress appearance. The other three princes are all ambitious.Of course, only their siblings have the best relationship. The rest of the princes and princesses, except for the third princess Wei Mumei and the fourth princess Wei Muqi, were born by concubines Xian, because they were not born by the same person, so there is a lot of jealousy between them. .

"Instead of thanking you, why not talk to Brother Huang about the person in your heart."

"Oh, by the way, do you know who the emperor is in Lingzhou?"

"Lingzhou Zhizhou?" Wei Mucheng thought for a while, "I have some impressions. I have been in office for 20 years. I was tenth in the imperial examination 20 years ago. I only saw him twice at the father's birthday banquet. Why did you suddenly ask?" him?"

Wei Muqing said: "It's an examinee I made friends with this time. She is from Lingzhou. Her brother was mistaken for a woman by the son of the magistrate of Lingzhou for molesting her, so she backhanded and injured her. As a result, the magistrate of Lingzhou killed her." He was sentenced to be executed by Qiu Houwen and was taken into custody."

"There are such reckless things about human lives! Do you really think that Emperor Tiangao is far away from himself as the king?"

"Brother Huang, I think that the power delegated to prefects in various regions is a bit too great. The prefects alone can have the final say on major matters of life and death."

"This matter cannot be passed easily. Is your friend planning to sue the government?"

"She went to the exam this time because she wanted to sue the imperial court, but I didn't tell her that the imperial examination is not the fastest way to sue a magistrate."

"So, he is the one in your heart?"

"Yes, Brother Huang, you should find a way to find out about this prefecture first, and when the test results come out, if she can pass the test, let her report to her father; if she doesn't pass the exam, I will tell her father. "

"Okay, Brother Huang understands. You have worked hard outside for so long, go back and rest quickly, Brother Huang will not keep you."

Wei Muqing smiled when he heard the words, "Yes, the younger sister will not bother the emperor brother and the emperor's wife."

"Ghosts and ghosts!"
