At this moment, opposite Ouyang Ji.
It was the same young man wearing a blue shirt and white clothes.
Compared with other candidates, I was either nervous or expectant.
Apart from a hint of curiosity, the young man's face showed a very calm expression.
This also made Ouyang Ji very puzzled. It was obviously the first time for his good friend to enter the palace, so why could he be so calm?
Chen Xuance, the young man standing nearby, smiled upon hearing this and said, "What's there to be afraid of? You and I entered the palace to take the imperial examination. In other words, we entered based on our own abilities. Why should we be afraid?"
At this moment, in his eyes, the imperial city was majestic and awe-inspiring.
But I am here to take part in the palace examination, so there is no need to be afraid.
Therefore, I am concerned about the performance of the candidates around me.
I couldn't help but shook my head.
Of course, Chen Xuance did not mean to look down on him.
I just feel that in this kind of occasion, there is no need to be too restrained, just relax a little.
After all, there is still the palace examination later.
On the other side, Ouyang Ji looked a little helpless after hearing his words.
The good friend in front of me is extremely talented, no less talented than myself, but the problem is that he is too free and unrestrained.
It is said that scholars should have integrity, but the other party completely disdains this and says that as long as he can do his best for the country, he can do anything.
During the time they were in the capital, other candidates were studying in the inn to prepare for the upcoming palace examination, but this person was different. He was almost always outside every day and enjoyed socializing.
It is said that more friends mean more ways out. Even if you cannot be among the top three in the future, you can still make a living by relying on your own means.
Especially his eloquence, he is very good at it, and he always has a lot to say.
It was just a few days in the capital.
Many officials praised him highly, and some even wanted to propose marriage for him.
This would have been nothing, but now is a special time, as the palace examination is about to begin.
Ouyang Ji felt that his friend's thoughts were misplaced.
It’s like being in the palace now.
The newly arrived candidates were a little nervous about this, but the other party had no scruples in this regard and just did what was supposed to be done.
Of course, in Ouyang Ji's heart, he still admired Chen Xuance's character, and he completely agreed that even if the other party did not take the imperial examination, he would be able to succeed anywhere.
The only thing he was worried about was that his friend was focusing too much on interpersonal relationships.
If you become an official in the court in the future, it may not be a big deal at first, but as time goes by.
Can we really keep our original intention?
To this.
Ouyang Ji was a little skeptical.
So I thought to myself that I must keep a close eye on my friends and prevent them from going astray.
Thinking of this, he paused, not dwelling on this matter any further, and then said, "Brother Xuan Ce, what do you think the questions for this palace examination will be about?"
The palace examination is about to begin, and the test questions are what the candidates present are most concerned about, although they don’t know what they will be specifically.
But I also had a rough guess in my mind that the questions in the palace examination were nothing more than those about the way to govern the country.
The reason why Ouyang Ji asked these questions was to divert attention.
Don't let yourself get too nervous and affect your exam performance.
"A test question?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuance immediately thought for a moment and continued, "I heard that the questions for this palace examination were not drafted by Lord Wang of the Ministry of Rites and the Cabinet, but were personally determined by His Majesty. That's why I said that the questions for this imperial examination must be different from the previous ones."
"You must know that Your Majesty is a wise and enlightened ruler. He has boldly carried out reforms internally and has been tough externally. If this were simply a way of governing the country, it would certainly not be what Your Majesty wants!"
Hearing this, Ouyang Ji felt a little helpless.
Since entering the capital, my friends have been praising the current emperor almost every day.
It is said that Your Majesty is a wise and benevolent monarch, an emperor who will be remembered forever, completely different from all previous emperors.
Even if we know what is going on, as long as we follow the policies formulated by the previous emperors of Wei, we can greatly enhance the national strength.
But the current emperor does not want to do so. He wants to build the Wei Dynasty into a truly prosperous dynasty in all aspects.
For example, when the Grand Secretary Song implemented the land-based tax system, even though the whole court opposed it, he did not change his determination and vowed to bring great benefits to the people.
There was also the battle of Gaoyang Kingdom. At that time, most people suggested to be patient and appease the people because the grassland army was moving south.
But Your Majesty is extremely powerful and directly declares war on the Gaoyang Kingdom.
He also boldly appointed the young uncle who had no experience.
At that time.
Not only officials in the capital, but also people from all over the country were talking about it, feeling that this battle would be complicated.
However, he did not expect that the young uncle of the king would lead only 50,000 Liaozhen garrisons to destroy the entire Gaoyang Kingdom.
Now, the entire royal family of Gaoyang State was directly escorted to the capital.
This is a big victory.
Therefore, the current Majesty's figure is extremely tall in the other party's mind. More than once, they have privately said that Majesty is a wise and benevolent monarch and a true emperor who is unparalleled in the history.
Ouyang Ji didn't know what to say about this.
Although he admitted that whether it was the reform or the battle of Gaoyang Kingdom.
His Majesty has made the wisest choices and achieved very good results.
The former reduced the burden on the people, and the latter greatly enhanced the national prestige of Wei.
But in his opinion, these two things were achieved by many wise and benevolent emperors in history books, so he also admitted that the current emperor was a wise ruler, but directly calling him the greatest emperor in history was indeed a bit...
