There are still normal people in Goryeo.

However, these shameless Goryeo scholars were not normal people. Zhu Xuan did not drag them away and beat them, which showed that he had good self-cultivation.

"You said that the Ministry of Personnel was unfair to you because of the cheating in the imperial examination?"

Zhu Xuan asked calmly.

When those Koreans saw that Zhu Xuan was willing to see them and asked such a question, they thought that the opportunity had come and there was still a chance, so they nodded quickly.

"That's right, the Ming Dynasty's Ministry of Personnel is unfair to us."

"The imperial examination fraud is unfair to us Koreans."

"Why are people from Tibet, the Western Regions and other places on the list, but we Koreans are not?"

"It was fraud. The Ministry of Personnel took their money."

……

They were shouting and yelling again, of course they did not dare to blame Zhu Xuan, but they still dared to blame the Ministry of Personnel, and they were still very arrogant, causing chaos in the entire Jinshen Hall, which was particularly arrogant.

Zhang Xun's face turned pale. If it weren't for his better self-cultivation, he would have started cursing and killed them.

Zhu Xuan said, "You said that our Ming Dynasty is unfair. That's great. Zhang Xun, show them their answers. What nonsense they wrote is nonsense. With your limited ability and perfunctory attitude, you dare to say that our Ming Dynasty is unfair? Do you still have any shame?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the Korean people were frightened and froze, and dared not make any more noise.

Although Zhu Xuan spoke calmly and his voice could not be described as fierce or angry, there was a faint aura that suppressed them so much that they dared not raise their heads.

Even Zeng Qi and others were slightly shocked when they felt such momentum.

They were amazed in their hearts that Zhu Xuan, such a young grandson of the emperor, could have such a terrifying aura. It was really amazing.

No wonder His Majesty allows His Highness to govern the country.

Because His Highness can control all the officials in the court, and can control all of them.

"Come here and take back your answer sheets!"

Zhang Xun snorted coldly, took out the Koreans' answer sheets from the Ministry of Personnel, and threw them directly in front of them.

Those Koreans were really perfunctory. The Koreans were the group that accepted the most Han culture. People in the Western Regions and other places were far inferior to them. However, the Koreans' responses were far worse than those of people in the Western Regions and other places.

Even the handwriting is far inferior.

The paper is sloppily written and what is written is nonsense. I have no idea what is written at all.

Putting aside the issue of knowledge or not, this attitude alone is enough for Zhu Xuan to kick them out.

Under Zhu Xuan's powerful aura, and after seeing the contents of their own answers, the Koreans who were causing trouble finally felt frightened. They stood there trembling, at a loss as to what to do.

"What, are you scared?"

Zhu Xuan said coldly.

Such momentum made the Koreans tremble again.

"You still dare to cause trouble in the palace?"

"I haven't gotten into any arguments with you about the incident at the Imperial Examination Hall that day."

"Come here, drag them out, give them thirty strokes of the cane, and banish them back to Goryeo. They will never be allowed to set foot in Ming Dynasty again in their lifetime. If they violate this rule, their entire clan will be exterminated once they are discovered."

Zhu Xuan's murderous aura made many people feel a chill down their spines.

Such momentum was really terrifying! Everyone standing there, except Zhang Xun and other old officials, felt a little uneasy.

When the Koreans heard about such a punishment, they were all horrified and kept shouting and begging on their knees for mercy. However, the Jinyiwei people did not care how they begged for mercy and only followed Zhu Xuan's orders.

They were simply dragged away, and the hall soon became quiet.

Zhu Xuan's expression relaxed and his tone returned to normal. He looked at Tubo and the others and said, "Don't worry. As long as you are not like the Koreans, you are our Ming Dynasty's subjects. I will arrange a suitable position for you. Those who want to stay in Ming Dynasty can stay in Ming Dynasty, and those who want to go back can go back."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Those foreign officials all shouted with gratitude.

However, they came to take the imperial examination in order to stay in the Ming Dynasty, and they were eager to stay. There is no doubt about this. No one wanted to give up the good things of the Ming Dynasty and go back.

The Ming Dynasty is real, a hundred times better than their country.

During the preparation period, they have been in Daming and can truly experience how good it is.

Zhu Xuan continued, "Okay, let's talk about it. You can also make some suggestions for Daming. No matter what you suggest, you can speak freely. It doesn't matter if what you say is wrong. This is our private conversation. No one will record it, and no one will be held accountable. Let's start with Zeng Qi."

"Go back to Your Highness..."

As the top scholar, Zeng Qi also understood that he should start first and express his views on the Ming Dynasty.

He is really a pragmatic person and seems to be willing to get things done.

The content proposed is all accurate suggestions.

Some even criticized the Ming Dynasty quite boldly, and bowed after they finished speaking, as if they were not afraid of Zhu Xuan's anger or blame.

Zhu Xuan had said that he would give them the opportunity to speak freely, so he certainly would not vent his anger on them. He nodded slightly and said, "Zeng Qi said it very well. I will also improve in some areas. Only if you communicate with me more and point out my shortcomings, we can govern the country together in the future, which will be effective. Not bad!"

"Next, Zhou Shu!"

Zhu Xuan said again.

Seeing that Zhu Xuan was really not angry, the people waiting below all breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, they thought that His Highness was really a wise monarch who would listen to honest advice even if it was unpleasant to the ear. Especially Jian Jinzhong, he had already regarded Zhu Xuan as a monarch like Yao, Shun, Yu and Tang.

In Jian Jinzhong's eyes, Zhu Xuan is almost perfect.

Zhou Shu has more suggestions.

At the same time, speak more confidently than anyone else.

One can also see his pride, as if among the people present, except Zhu Xuan and others, he only admires Zeng Qi, and he doesn't care about anyone else.

However, Zhu Xuan did not deny that he had a unique vision and the questions he raised were very insightful.

After Zhou Shu finished speaking, the others began to speak.

One after another.

When it was the turn of foreigners such as Tubo to make suggestions, they did not have a deep understanding of the Ming Dynasty, but based on what they had seen and heard, and knowing what Zhu Xuan wanted to do to them, they also raised some questions.

Zhu Xuan can really listen to these questions.

After everyone finished speaking, Zhu Xuan nodded slightly and said, "What you said is all very good! I will give priority to handling some of the more serious issues. This is what I mean by speaking freely! However, you can be more casual now. After I assign you official positions, you will need to abide by etiquette and be a good official."

Being a good official is actually not easy.

Many scholars who have just entered the officialdom first think of being a good official, and they are full of enthusiasm for this, but the officialdom is a big dyeing factory, which can easily dye them red and green. (End of this chapter)
