"Zhao Gao, you should step back first."

Hearing this, Zhao Gao responded, and then left the place.

Looking at Ying Zheng, Bei Chen asked, "I wonder why Your Majesty asked me to come here?"

He knew that with the other party's temperament, if there was nothing wrong, he wouldn't chat with him.

Hearing the question, Ying Zheng said, "Have you been paying attention to the imperial examination?"

Beichen nodded, "The county examination has just ended, and a total of [-] candidates have passed the test. According to analysis, they will gather in Xianyang City to participate in the following palace examination."

Ying Zheng said, "Yes, the palace examination will be held in a while, but there is still a big test before the palace examination, and I need to prepare."

Bei Chen agreed, "The exam is very important, so we must choose a suitable examiner."

Ying Zheng nodded slightly, "The chief examiner of the big exam can't be too casual, who do you think is more suitable?"

Hearing this, Bei Chen replied, "Three lords and nine ministers are all very good, among which Lord Li, Lord Wang, and Lord Feng are the most suitable."

Ying Zheng said, "Li Si, Feng Quji, and Wang Wan are not bad, but I have a more suitable candidate."

Hearing this, Beichen asked, "Who is it?"

Bei Chen had a little doubt in his heart. According to Ying Zheng's temperament, as long as he decided on something, he was basically arbitrary. Why did he take the initiative to ask his opinion today?unless……

Thinking of this, he already had a guess in his heart, but when he looked up, he saw that the other party was looking at him, but he didn't say anything.

"Your Majesty wants me to be the chief examiner? I'm afraid this is not suitable?"

A faint smile appeared on Ying Zheng's face, "There is nothing inappropriate. After thinking about it, I feel that there is no better candidate than you in the court."

"First of all, you are both a national teacher and a grand tutor, and your status is high enough to deter others and show that the imperial court attaches great importance to this imperial examination."

"In addition, you are from a Taoist school and are not involved in military affairs, so you don't have to bear too much pressure, and no one will gossip."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Beichen and said seriously, "And the most important thing is that you are free..."

Hearing this explanation, Bei Chen blinked and said, "Your Majesty will really give me problems."

Ying Zheng said, "This matter is none other than yours."

Beichen said, "Since His Majesty has already said it's for this sake, then I can only try."

Ying Zheng smiled, and put his hand on the former's shoulder, "I will leave this exam to you. If anyone dares to make any crooked ideas, don't be merciful..."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Li Si took the main seat, looking at Zhao Gao who was at the side and asked, "I wonder why the order of the CRRC Mansion came to see me today? Does Your Majesty have any orders?"

Zhao Gao replied with a smile on his face, "Your Majesty has no edict today, and this servant and maid came here just to have a few words with Lord Xiangguo."

Li Si glanced at the other party and asked, "Then I wonder what advice Master Zhao has?"

Zhao Gao replied humbly, "I don't dare to teach you, but there is one thing I want to tell my lord."

"It's okay to say the CRRC government order, I'm all ears."

Li Si said something, and then picked up a cup of tea on the table.

Zhao Gao's expression remained unchanged, and he continued, "Your Majesty attaches great importance to this year's imperial examination. The county examination is over, and the next one is the big examination."

"This official has known about it for a long time, and I am one of the people who made the question."

While talking, Li Si took a sip of his tea.

Zhao Gao smiled, and asked in that soft voice, "Does Xiangguo know who is the chief examiner for this exam?"

Hearing this, Li Si's hand holding the cup paused slightly, then returned to normal and continued to take a sip.

Then he asked, "Your Majesty has already made a decision?"

Zhao Gao nodded slightly, "That's right, His Majesty has already decided to let Beichen be the chief examiner for this exam."

Hearing this, Li Si's eyes changed slightly, his voice became calmer, and he said, "Master Zhao came here on a special trip today to tell me about this matter?"

Zhao Gao got up and said, "The reason why this servant came here to tell the lord this matter is really because I feel wronged for you."

"What do you mean by that?"

Li Si asked with a frown.

Zhao Gao took a step forward, "Xiangguo is the head of all officials and has the power to supervise the court. You should be the chief examiner of this big exam. Although the national teacher is superior, he is not as qualified as you Manage this."

Li Si heard the words, and said calmly, "Master Zhao, please be careful. Your Majesty's arrangement must have deep meaning, how can we speculate on our own?"

Zhao Gao said, "What the Prime Minister taught me is that this matter is really not something that slaves should talk about."

"It's just that the official has always admired you, and what I said today that shouldn't be said is also worried about you."

Hearing this, Li Si's expression changed, and he said, "It's just a mere examiner for a major exam, so how can there be any threat?"

Zhao Gao said, "It's fine if you're just an examiner, but what matters is His Majesty's attitude."

"Sir Xiangguo must be able to feel that His Majesty doesn't like the nobles left behind, let alone let them monopolize official careers.

So in recent years, people from poor families have been promoted, and you should have a deep understanding of this. "
