It was rare for Li Yi to keep a serious face, and the guards behind him were all dignified, looking at the scene as if something big was about to happen.

Li Yi's eyes were in front of the kneeling scholars, looking over one by one.

"Get up." Li Yi said.

The scholars who had just knelt down like ducks in the water stood up one after another this time.

"Just now I heard someone say that what I did was wrong, whoever said it stood up and showed me." Li Yi imitated Li Mi's appearance, with a cold face, intimidating everyone.

Suddenly, the face of a scholar among the crowd turned pale.

He quickly explained: "My lord, the matter is not what you think. I just think that this time the scientific examination is biased. Why did these people get the Jinshi or the top of the list, but why didn't we pass the examination?"

His tone sounded like a resentful woman who hadn't gone out for many years in a deep cabinet, complaining why her husband didn't come home.

The expression on Li Yi's face became a little colder: "Are you the chief examiner this time, or am I? This is the paper that the emperor personally reviewed. The emperor has seen your articles. Those with names on the gold list will be judged by the emperor. It was approved by the emperor, if you don’t have a name, go back and think about it.”

"What's more, there are so many people rushing for the exam every year. Some people lose their names, and some people are named on the gold list. This is all human. Why must your name be on this list?" Li Yi was laughing in the past, but in serious However, he also has a different face.

These words were really harsh, and the few scholars who had lost their reputation in Sun Shan were already a little bit uncomfortable, but now they heard these words and wished they could just find a place to drill down.

"No, then why, then why, Zhang Jiqian is at the top of the list this year, what's so good about his articles?" the one who lost his name to Sun Shan said excitedly.

He has read the article written by Zhang Jiqian. Although it looks good, the format and grammar are all wrong, and it cannot be compared with the stereotyped essay he wrote.

But it happened to be that kind of article, which won No. 1 on the gold list this time, and was the No. [-] scholar this year, and his stereotyped essay was so good that he lost his name.

"What's your name?" Li Yi became curious.

He would like to see, what is the origin of this person who is so fanatical and unwilling to admit defeat, that he actually thinks that his article is better than that written by this year's Jinke No. [-] scholar?
"Student Wang Hao!" Wang Hao said unconvinced, and soon, many people behind him clamored and demanded that the imperial examination be resentenced this time.

"This scientific examination is unfair! We demand a new sentence!"

The leader was Wang Hao. With the support of the other students, he stood at the front, clenched his fists and shouted loudly, as if he had been pumped up.

Zhang Jiqian stood there blankly, his eyes could not see clearly at all, but now that there was such a noise, he was squeezed to the back again.

He felt so strange now, he always felt like he had seen that prince somewhere before, but he was not dressed like this at that time.

Seeing more and more people, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials rushed over immediately, holding a handkerchief to wipe the sweat on his head.

"King Jiu'an, do you think this should be published according to the list we made before, otherwise it will be difficult to appease the public's anger." The Minister of the Ministry of Officials said.

Li Yi snorted coldly through his nose: "Why, Mr. Shangshu, there are a few candidates who think it is unfair, so they will be written on the list. If everyone in the world thinks it is unfair, then there will be no need for imperial examinations in the future. You need to make a fuss to become a Jinshi?"

These words really made the Minister of the Ministry of Officials not know how to answer, he could only look at Li Yi anxiously.

Since the disclosure of selling officials and nobles last time, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials has never dared to interfere in Li Wei's decision-making, so this time the imperial examination list is all made by Li Wei and Li Yi.

Before the gold list was released, even he didn't know who was on the list this time.

Now that the name above came out, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials took a fancy to it, but none of the scholars showed up.

Could it be that some people who he thought wrote were too profound, became Jinshi this time.

Although all the papers were graded blindly, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials also knew what kind of articles some people would write.

It's not that he doesn't want to take care of it, he really can't do it!How dare he touch the emperor's brow at this time?Is it the fear of dying not fast enough?
"Yes, what the prince said is true, but what should these students do now?" The Minister of the Ministry of Officials did not dare to say anything, and just followed Li Yi's words.

With a snap, Li Yi opened a folding fan. The color of the folding fan today complements the color of his clothes and is also purple, which looks very matching.

Just about to speak, but saw the distance.

There was a man sitting on the roof of the original teahouse. He was also dressed in purple today, but his color was darker than Li Yi's.

Beside him, there was also a woman in a pink long jacket, who looked exquisite and lovely.

I'll go, why did these two people leave the palace?
Li Yi looked at the two upstairs with a bit of a stupefied look.

Didn't you agree that he will be solely responsible for this matter?Why don't you worry about what he did now, this is to supervise the work?

What Li Yi could see, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials also saw him, and ran towards the teahouse in a panic, holding his official robe while running.

When he got to the bottom, he knelt on the ground immediately: "The old minister has seen the emperor and the queen!"

Fu Yao, who was stuffing cakes into his mouth, stared blankly at the movement downstairs. The Minister of the Ministry of Officials, who was still far away just now, is actually downstairs now, and kneeling there to worship the teahouse, it looks extremely funny .

This is the emperor and queen?
Those scholars had never seen the emperor, let alone the empress. Now that they heard this, they all ran over with the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and knelt and kowtowed under the teahouse like a mountain.

This kowtow made Fu Yao lose all interest in eating cakes.

She thought that Li Wei brought him out for fun, but she didn't expect to see this year's gold list titles.

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials hurried upstairs: "The emperor's scholars are all dissatisfied, and feel that they should be the top of the list. Or, should we make a new gold list?"

As soon as the words fell, a slash fell on the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and Li Wei looked at the Minister of the Ministry of Officials coldly and snorted coldly.

"Why are you dissatisfied with the list I set and the number one selected?" Li Wei's indifferent voice made the head of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials tingle.

He knew that this golden list was written by Li Wei, and what he said just now was just a suggestion. How could he really ask Li Wei to redo the golden list?

At this point, he couldn't help but resent those scholars who had lost their reputation and were still messing around.
