Liu Tan was a little nervous. After Zhu Shanzhang became a guilty minister, his father Zhu Maichen was also very legendary.

Zhu Maichen's family was poor but eager to learn. When he was 40 years old, he was still chopping firewood to support his family. The "San Zi Jing" refers to him.

There is also an idiom that can't be undone if it is overwhelmed by water, which also refers to him.

The impoverished Zhu Maichen came to Chang'an on an errand and met Yan Zhu from his hometown. Yan Zhu recommended Zhu Maichen to Liu Che, and because Zhu Maichen was good at interpreting "Spring and Autumn" and "Chu Ci" and was loved by Liu Che, he gave it to him. He took the official position of a doctor of Chinese medicine and accompanied him by his side.

Zhu Maichen's life was also full of ups and downs. He was demoted to the prefect of Kuaiji for his crimes, and he was ranked in the Jiuqing because of the pacification of Dongyue. Tang Huai held a grudge, and waited for an opportunity to frame Zhang Tang again. Before Zhang Tang died, he wrote a suicide note. Liu Che regretted it, and then killed Zhu Maichen and others who framed Zhang Tang.

Zhu Maichen was beheaded, and it was good not to implicate his family. His son naturally became a commoner, but Zhu Maichen was able to become one of the nine ministers, so he was naturally talented, and the son he cultivated was not bad.

In fact, judging from Zhu Shanzhang's answer sheet, it is indeed the most outstanding of this group. After Liu Tan knew his family background, he felt a little pity. Bold enough to be recorded.

Liu Che couldn't see any joy or anger on his face, but asked, "His family's ancestral home is Wu County, why did he escape to the northern border country?"

Liu Tan shook his head. This is what he didn't understand. On the map of later generations, Wu County is the part of Jiangsu, and it is not 01:30 that is far from the northern border country.

However, after Zhu Maichen was beheaded, the whereabouts of his wife and children were unknown, and they might not have returned to Wu County.

"Father, he... can be an official?"

As soon as Liu Che turned his head, he saw Liu Tan looking at him eagerly. Liu Che was a little surprised: "It seems that this Zhu Shanyi has some real talents and practical learning."

If it weren't for this, his son wouldn't have made such painstaking efforts to intercede.

Liu Tan immediately said: "I don't dare to say what I have learned, but I can see that he is better than many people in the northern border country through the test. He was No.1 in the previous test."

Well, because I was too lazy to think of the name, Liu Tan directly used the name of the later generations, knowing how to try, and it is easy to explain, that is, there will be a competition in one place.

After hearing this, Liu Che became interested: "Then let me take a look at his paper."

This time, without waiting for Liu Tan's order, Miao Rui sent someone to fetch it immediately.

Zhu Shanzhang's exam papers were taken from the beginning to the end.

Liu Che took the test paper and looked at it and couldn't help but nodded: "This is a good handwriting."

Liu Tan sat down honestly and didn't say anything more, he had already done what he could do, and the rest was up to Zhu Shanzhang himself.

However, in history, Zhu Shanzhang was the Sheriff of Youfufeng, and he should have been appreciated by Liu Che. He just advanced this matter for a while, so there shouldn't be any major problems, right?

Liu Che read one by one, the first few are actually nothing, the exams are all about basic knowledge.

It’s just the basic knowledge, Liu Che still saw something, and said with emotion: "His father is good at managing "Spring and Autumn" and "Chu Ci", and he can be regarded as some true biography."

Liu Tan still didn't speak, Liu Che noticed that there was a little silence around him, so he couldn't help but turned to look at Liu Tan: "Why don't you speak?"

Liu Tan looked at him innocently: "I'm afraid of disturbing my father's thoughts."

Liu Che sneered, and continued to look down. The questions in the test were more difficult, and they were all based on the situation in the northern border country.

For example, the primary issue of the northern border country today, and the policy for dealing with the Xiongnu.

Zhu Shanzhang's answers were rigid, and he was not considered outstanding in the court, and even in Liu Che's opinion, he was not as good as some of Liu Tan's whimsical ideas.

However, considering that he is considered to be Zhu Maichen's old man, and his family was in decline when he was young, it is already extraordinary to have such insight.

Liu Che put down the paper and said, "So-so."

Liu Tan was immediately relieved. Liu Che's ability to say this meant that there was no problem with Zhu Shan's identity, and the rest was up to him.

Liu Che asked, "What are you going to test in the palace exam?"

Liu Tan immediately pulled out the previous process and said: "The palace examination also requires answering papers, but the test questions are given by the invigilator on the same day. That is to say, if the father presides over the palace examination, the father will choose what questions come up."

Liu Che was a little surprised after hearing this: "You didn't think about the topic?"

Liu Tan said: "After thinking about the topic, I will use the mutual market as the topic, let them talk about the advantages and disadvantages of the mutual market, and talk a little about how to develop it."

Liu Che grunted and said, "It's not bad."

When Liu Che came over, he saw Liu Tan's orders to various counties and counties along the way, and he could already see that Liu Tan had already launched a series of arrangements around the mutual market.

Liu talked about this topic, on the one hand, it is the vision and vision of the school candidates, or the selection of like-minded people.

No matter how talented a person is, his ideas are twisted with him. What is he going to do?Can't you find happiness for yourself?

If you cherish your talent at most, you will recommend him to other places, and you will not stay.

After flipping through the pages briefly, Liu Che nodded and said, "Then I'll go and have a look tomorrow."

Liu Tan immediately felt relieved, and said happily, "I won't bother Father and Emperor to rest."

Liu Che waved his hand to signal that he could leave gracefully.

In the early morning of the second day, Liu Tan was still stationed in Liu Che's car and marched towards his palace.

He yawned and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "Father just let those Confucian scholars come to Changshou Palace to take part in the imperial examination, why bother to get up so early?"

Liu Che couldn't help laughing when he saw that he couldn't open his eyes: "It's still a long way to go, sleep with you!"

Liu Tan fell asleep lying next to him very kindly.

Liu Che glanced at him, a little envious of this kind of sleep, he is not too young, after all, he does not sleep as much as he did when he was a teenager.

As for why he insisted on going to the palace, Liu Che also had his own considerations. After all, the Northern Kingdom is still ruled by the King of the Northern Territory. These people were selected by him. It is enough for him to know them well, but he does not want a duplicitous person to come out of it. Huo Future stepped on Liu Tan and tried to enter Beijing.

Hey, his son is really smart when he is smart, and really stupid when he is stupid.

After arriving at the palace, Liu Tan washed his face and sat beside Liu Che.

After everything was ready and Liu Che nodded, the palace examination officially began.

And it wasn't until this moment that Liu Tan saw the topic given by Liu Che, which translates to: On the relationship between the Han Dynasty and the countries of the Western Regions.

When Liu Tan saw this topic, he suddenly remembered Huo Guang's words: Are you not afraid that your majesty will take away whoever you fancy?

Liu Tan put down the topic expressionlessly, this time he didn't know how many people he would have left.
