"Yes, I will have the palace servant give you a badge, and you can look through the examination papers of recent years at any time."
He added, "When compiling the examination question books, we can also put the examination questions of these subjects in them."
“You can ask your teachers and others to participate then.
"Wait until you pass the imperial examination, or even become a Jinshi, and then print the examination paper."
Xiao Hanzheng is just a scholar now, and it is not a good time to do anything.
The emperor thought that if he was going to do it, he should do it on a big scale.
It would be boring to just target tongsheng (literally "boys"). It would be better to come up with a set of examination question books for tongsheng (boys), xiucai (literally "scholars") and juren (literally "juren").
Even in the imperial examinations to select officials over the years, those who were able to stand out were mainly children of aristocratic families.
If you want to increase the hope of poor students to rise, it is a good idea to start with this exam question booklet.
He expressed his meaning roughly and implicitly.
Xiao Hanzheng knew the emperor very well and could immediately hear the hidden meaning behind his words.
He nodded and smiled, "Your Majesty is right. I will start sorting it out first, and then I will look into compiling and printing it after the imperial examination is over next year."
"I will discuss this with the teacher."
The emperor likes smart people. "Mr. Hou has accepted a good student."
Then he asked casually, "Is this the only reward you want?"
Xiao Hanzheng smiled and replied, "The seed donation was all thanks to my wife and master. I am already very satisfied to be able to look through the exam questions from previous years."
It's just right now. Although it will attract a lot of jealousy, it won't cause too much hatred.
If the emperor lavishly rewarded the couple, it would be too conspicuous and would be bad.
One day he will stand in a higher position than in his previous life, relying not on rewards but on real achievements.
The emperor showed a rare bit of appreciation in his eyes, "Then it's as you wish."
He didn't believe that Xiao Hanzheng had no advice on the seed donation matter.
Is it really such a coincidence? When all those bad rumors about him came out, the gift of good seed from heaven emphasized that he was the true dragon destined by heaven.
Although the emperor felt that he was indeed the true dragon emperor, he did not think that this was such a coincidence.
Coupled with what Xiao Hanzheng showed today, he was even more convinced that this was a talent.
The emperor chatted with Xiao Hanzheng for a while and asked a lot of questions, to which Xiao Hanzheng gave some insights.
While the emperor was very satisfied, he also felt a little regretful. Why was Xiao Hanzheng still a little scholar?
Seeing that the time was almost up, the emperor asked Mo Qingling to take Xiao Hanzheng and his wife away.
After everyone left, the emperor picked up a memorial but could hardly read it.
His mind came back to what Xi Rong had said to him two days ago.
Xiao Hanzheng's wife is not simple. She has many things in her mind that are beneficial to the country and the people.
He is also good at making money. Any idea he comes up with can make money.
The niece even asked Shi Qingluo to open a rouge shop together.
It is not an easy thing to be so highly praised by his proud niece.
Moreover, Xiao Hanzheng is also a useful talent.
However, it would take a long time for Xiao Hanzheng to pass the imperial examinations and become a Jinshi.
He ordered, "Go and announce that old Lord Hou has entered the palace."
The palace attendant immediately said respectfully: "Yes!"
Before Xiao Hanzheng and the other person returned, Old Hou was summoned to the palace.
The emperor first praised Mr. Hou for having a good student.
Then he roughly repeated Xiao Hanzheng's request and words before.
After that, he sighed, "Alas, the court is really lacking in young and promising talents."
As soon as Mr. Hou heard it, he tasted the flavor.
He suggested with a smile, "Your Majesty, you can hold a special examination to select more young people for training in advance."
Elder Hou nodded, "This is a gift from heaven. It is a matter of great celebration. It is reasonable to hold a special examination for this."
It has to be said that Mr. Hou’s words hit the emperor’s point.
"My dear, what you said makes sense."
The emperor changed the subject and asked, "If your student Xiao Hanzheng were to take the imperial examination, would he have a good chance of passing the imperial examination?"
Old Hou was extremely shocked. The emperor wanted to hold an imperial examination, but it turned out to be for his little disciple?
We should also add Shi Qingluo.
The old fox was shocked and excited inside, but he didn't show it on his face.
He smiled and said, "Han Zheng's knowledge is very solid. I am not bragging. Not only will it be easy for him to pass the imperial examination, he also has a chance to enter the top three."
Xiao Hanzheng is the most intelligent student he has ever taught.
Not only is he smart and knowledgeable in his studies, he is also a talent in government affairs.
That's why he dared to say such words.
The emperor was a little surprised. "This is the first time I have heard you praise your students like this."
Mr. Hou smiled and said, "This student of mine is indeed good."
Many times, you don't need to be too humble in front of the emperor, and you should not miss the opportunity to help students find a sense of existence.
The emperor then changed the subject and chatted with Mr. Hou about other things with a smile.
When Mr. Hou returned to the yard, Xiao Hanzheng came to greet him.
Xiao Hanzheng reached out to support Mr. Hou, "Teacher, you have worked hard!"
The more Mr. Hou looked at his little disciple, the more he liked him. He was smart, sensible, calm and filial, very good.
He was the first person in Daliang to be granted special examination by the emperor.
However, this matter could not be said out loud, and he was just guessing what the emperor was thinking.
He said, "Let's go sit in the study."
Xiao Hanzheng knew that the teacher had something to say, "Okay!"
The two went to the study.
Xiao Hanzheng saw a set of Kung Fu tea sets in the study, so he took the initiative to make tea.
After brewing it, he handed over a cup, "Teacher, please!"
Elder Hou took the tea brewed by his beloved disciple and took a sip. "Prepare well. The special examination should be held around February next year."
Xiao Hanzheng was stunned for a moment, but soon reacted and smiled: "The students will prepare well and try their best to pass the exam in one try."
There was no such thing as an imperial examination in the previous life.
So the emperor wanted to hold an imperial examination this time and summoned the teacher to the palace. Could it be for him and his wife? He did not show that he had guessed this.
If Master Hou knew what he was thinking, he would definitely sigh at the truth about his young disciple, saying that he was even more cunning than the old fox.
Mr. Hou smiled and said, "It's not about trying hard to pass the exam in one try, but you have to pass the exam in one try."
He added: "I told His Majesty that not only can you pass the imperial examination, but you can also strive to be among the top three."
It can be seen that the emperor probably wants to use the young disciple, so it is necessary for him to give the young disciple some pressure and a sense of urgency.
Xiao Hanzheng understood, "I will never let you down or embarrass you."
The General's Mansion was the first to know about Xiao Hanzheng's visit to Beijing.
Xiao Yuanshi asked someone to keep an eye on the time when Xiao Hanzheng entered and left the palace.
After hearing the report from his confidant, his eyes became extremely complicated.
He has stayed in the palace for such a long time. It seems that the emperor values this son very much.
Should he take the initiative to see his son? He couldn't help but feel conflicted.
Sorry, I'm stuck and procrastinating. I still have to finish the next chapter, and then I'll continue writing the third chapter. I'll post it all around 19:30~ (End of this chapter)
