Qin Shi Mingyue Taoist Master Uncle

In addition, Bei Chenzi, the national teacher who presided over the exam before, is also here.

"Meet Your Majesty!"

The crowd saluted in unison.

"Be flat!"

Ying Zheng's tone was calm.

The candidates stood up, their hearts seemed to be jumping out, their legs were trembling, and some sweat was leaking from their backs.

Although I had imagined the situation at this time countless times before coming here, I still couldn't control my emotions.

Especially some people from poor families, who didn't even see the county magistrate a few times in their hometown, but now they see the emperor, how can they not be nervous?

Seeing this, the corners of Bei Chen's mouth curled up slightly, and then he said, "Just follow the rules, don't be so nervous, you can relax."

This plain voice seems to possess magical power, able to soothe people's hearts.

As soon as this sentence was passed into the ears of dozens of students who had been handed out, they instantly felt the uneasiness in their hearts dissipate, and their hearts became much calmer.

After recovering, all the candidates looked at Bei Chen with a hint of gratitude in their eyes.

At this moment, Ying Zheng took a large look at the people below, and then said, "Today, you are answering the questions in the main hall. There are seats on both sides. Choose one of them to sit down."

In order to make it easier for students to answer questions, fifty cushions and desks were specially added to the hall, and pens and inks were also prepared.

"promise!"

The candidates responded respectfully, then walked to the left and right, and found a random seat to sit down.

Yingzheng's voice sounded again, "You guys have passed the big exam, and you are all talents that the empire can create. I will personally prepare questions for today's palace exam for consideration, and you can show your talents to the fullest. If you can satisfy me, you will be entrusted with important tasks in the future! "

Although it was only two short sentences, it was enough to make the hearts of fifty candidates have infinite longing.

With excitement in his heart, he clenched his fists tightly, and now he couldn't help showing his talent.

Seeing everyone's eagerness to fight, a smile appeared in Ying Zheng's eyes, and he said, "Listen, I'm going to present a question..."

.

"Listen carefully, I'm going to ask a question."

Hearing this, the fifty candidates all raised their spirits and listened attentively, for fear of missing a single word.

At this time, Ying Zheng said, "What is a king? What is a minister? What is a people? What is the world?"

When the voice fell, everyone was a little surprised. Originally, they thought that the emperor would consider learning, or the way of governing the country for officials.

But I didn't expect it to be such a problem.

Objectively speaking, this question is not difficult. There are similar explanations in many classics, and they can naturally answer it with their knowledge.

But if it was really that simple, would His Majesty still ask such a question?

Everyone didn't write immediately, but frowned and thought about it, trying to figure out the deep meaning of the topic.

When Beichen saw this scene, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

In his opinion, the question posed by Ying Zheng is really simple and difficult.

The reason why I say it simply is because the assessment is not literature, but my own concepts and thoughts.

There is no fixed answer, as long as you say what you understand in your heart, you can't make a mistake.

But it is all the more difficult to answer because there is no definite answer.

Ying Zheng has the final say on the result of this imperial examination, which means that everything must be based on his will.

If your answer is not to their liking, no matter how much you quote from the classics, it will be useless.

On the contrary, as long as you say what you want to hear, even a short sentence can become the leader of this imperial examination.

Therefore, the question posed this time is essentially a test of Ying Zheng's mind.

However, these people below have basically never even met him, so it is still very difficult to get the quasi-pulse door.

Ying Zheng looked at the students below who were racking their brains to answer, but didn't say anything, leaving the rest of the time to them.

And he himself didn't have the habit of wasting a short time, he wanted to take advantage of the time to answer the questions to continue working, and then he ordered the waiter.

After a while, two guards brought a pile of bamboo slips, these are the memorials to be reviewed today.

Although there is Qin paper now, it has not been used on a large scale, so the bamboo slips are still the main writing tool.

While reviewing the memorial, Ying Zheng waited for the candidates to finish answering the questions.

Seeing this, Beichen didn't continue to stand there in a daze, but found a random place to sit down, and then began to meditate cross-legged.

The whole hall became quiet.

The time for the palace examination is only one hour, so the candidates did not delay too long, and after thinking for a while, they began to write.

Under this quiet atmosphere, an hour passed quickly.

"Your Majesty, the time has come."
