After Shen Zhiyi finished writing, he continued to watch the joke of the governor surnamed Wang.
[Stupid, you're still smiling so happily, you don't even know you've been sold. ]
[But this guy is also a bit stupid. He even joined some group where everyone claims that their ancestors were from some aristocratic family.]
[Hahahaha, maybe among all those people there, only the governor surnamed Wang is real.]
After Shen Zhiyi laughed for a while, the laughter disappeared immediately.
[Eh? Something seems wrong. It seems that the ancestors of those members are really aristocratic families with a history of hundreds of years. ]
The minister, who had just relaxed, suddenly felt nervous again.
This kind of gathering of sensitive groups is not a good thing.
Although the clan system can no longer cause any trouble, we still need to pay attention to it.
[This team was created not long ago, and the people in it seem to want to marry some scholars who are good at reading. After entering the court in the future, after a long time, they will slowly replace them with people from their several major families, so that they can return to the peak state of hundreds of years ago. ]
The old emperor felt a chill on his back.
He gave Chen Decai a look.
Chen Decai, who was like a worm in his stomach, understood immediately.
He received the order and left quietly, going to the Secretariat to meet the Minister of Justice.
"The emperor has ordered a strict investigation of the governor of Jeju."
The Minister of Justice received the order, but was very puzzled.
"Eunuch Chen, what did Shen Lang say?"
Chen Decai raised his little orchid finger and told the Minister of Justice what happened in the Hall of Supreme Harmony in an exaggerated manner.
When the Minister of Justice heard this, he knew that this matter had to be nipped in the bud.
*
The champion is gone, and it becomes unknown who will take the top spot.
Shen Zhiyi didn't care about it at all, because both of the people she pressured were ruined.
When Minister Chen of the Ministry of Rites heard Shen Zhiyi mutter this, he felt heartbroken.
Several dozen taels of silver is not a small amount.
The sun sets and the pen falls.
The old emperor began to review the papers on the spot, sitting directly on the dragon throne in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
[I heard that the third place winner must be handsome. I think the one in the middle of the seventh row is good! ]
[Don’t be fooled by his skinny appearance when he’s wearing clothes, but when he took off his shirt in the shower yesterday, he was full of muscular muscles! ]
"Ahem."
The old emperor choked on his own saliva.
The court officials present all looked at Shen Zhiyi in horror.
Spying on others taking a shower?
Did Chen Lang also peek at them taking a bath?
The old emperor took a look at the guy who looked thin when dressed and had muscular body when undressed, turned to the article written by him, and started to find fault with him. In any case, he would not give him any of the top three.
The language is piled up and is flashy but not practical.
In the end, the top three chose an old emperor who he thought was good-looking.
[The top three in my class, the third place winner is at least good looking, and this time’s winner can’t be said to be unhandsome, anyway, he looks like a human being. ]
Shen Zhiyi expressed disappointment.
At this point, the palace examination came to an end.
What followed were some activities such as announcing the results, audience with the emperor, expressing gratitude and some banquets.
However, this time, there was an additional test for Jinshi candidates, which was all about grassroots governance.
[I thought it was just farming, but I didn't expect there were so many other things. The test was even more detailed than the palace examination.]
It was so detailed that it actually stumped some Jinshi candidates.
That night, the old emperor got very angry when he looked at the answers given by the candidates.
[On the 29th day of Gengxu, the Jinshi examination was conducted. Only two candidates were considered excellent and five were qualified. The rest were like castles in the air when it came to basic matters. The emperor was furious.]
Zhang Sheren was trembling with fear. This was more than just rage. He was almost about to rip the roof off.
"Trash, a bunch of trash."
"You don't even know this little bit of common sense, and you still want to be an official? What a shitty official you are."
"A total of one hundred candidates were admitted to the Jinshi examination this time, but only seven of them were qualified?"
"What? Have you two read so much that you have become insane? Have you become detached from reality? Why are you showing off your literary talent to me every day?"
[It’s over. I feel like the old emperor is scolding me.]
[I completed nine years of compulsory education, three years of high school, and almost four years of college, so not counting kindergarten, I studied for a total of sixteen years, but I really don’t know much about agriculture.]
[Because I am a science and engineering student, not an agricultural student. ]
Shen Zhiyi felt guilty for a while and began to find comfort for himself.
[It’s okay, it’s okay. I’m actually OK. At least I know what vegetables to eat. ]
The old emperor sneered, and he didn't know who was looking at the apples growing on the tree, his jaw dropped in shock.
He sat back on the dragon throne, getting angrier and angrier.
So he went to court the next day.
Normally, after the palace examination, the old emperor would praise the new Jinshi, but this time...
[Wow, the old emperor is scolding everyone from top to bottom, it's really bloody.]
[Oh, they were all sent to the grassroots? Even the top scholar went to work at the grassroots? Many of them went to Jiangnan. It seems that the prince killed a lot of people there.]
Shen Zhiyi finally took a look at the prince whom he hadn’t seen for a long time.
[Eh? Where's the prince? ]
In front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Shen Zhiyi frowned and frantically looked for the prince's trace.
The old emperor who was outputting stopped talking. He had been scolding Shen Zhiyi for so long why he hadn’t found the prince yet.
Could it be that...
All the civil and military officials in the court breathed a sigh of relief.
Did something happen to the prince?
[Fuck, I found it! ]
Shen Zhiyi couldn’t help but blurt out a curse word.
[I was wondering, the system has clearly already targeted the prince, so why can't they find him? It seems that the prince is so dirty that he looks more like a disaster victim than those disaster victims.]
