904 Send him to a good place
On the 18th day of the ninth month, the court examinations were held three days after the results of the general examinations were released.
The court examinations were held in the palace and the Emperor personally set the questions.
Gu shouxin was the first in the general examination. He sat in the first row and could clearly see the Emperor.
In order to satisfy the Emperor, Gu shouxin naturally had to pretend to be surprised and in disbelief.
The Emperor glanced at Gu shouxin and nodded in satisfaction.
Hehe, second brother Gu, aren’t you surprised to see me? Hahaha, I’ve been waiting to see this expression of yours for many days!
After the papers were distributed, the examinees began to examine the questions.
The Emperor walked down with his hands behind his back.
For those who were not mentally strong, the ink directly dyed the paper. The Emperor shook his head. It was boring.
He strolled around with his hands behind his back.
The other examiners wanted to stop him. You’re giving people pressure. Do you still want to recruit talents this year?
Unfortunately, they did not dare to shout.
Ever since the Emperor had ascended the throne, there had never been a court examination that was held once every three years. There was no other reason than that he liked to stand with his hands behind his back for fifteen minutes, the kind that made the examinees ‘hands tremble.
Two years ago, two years ago, there was an official who suggested that the Emperor should not stand for so long. The Emperor only said one sentence, and he was affected by standing by his side? Then how could he be Zhen’s official, attend morning court every day, and not only care about fear? How can you share my worries?
No one knew that he really wanted to find someone to share his worries with! He really wanted to go out and play.
In the past, there was only one question in the court examinations, but this year, there were two questions, which was more time than usual.
They all thought that it was the emperor’s sudden impulse, but in fact, one of these came from the Grand Emperor and Empress Dowager.
After the sun had set, the candidates left the palace to wait for news.
That night, the Emperor brought a few scripts that he had his eyes on to the Empress Dowager’s Renshou Palace.
The Grand Emperor and the Empress Dowager were prepared to rest. Seeing the Emperor bring the answer scrolls over like he had done in the past, they could not tell if they were happy or not.
In fact, she had already given the power to the Emperor, but this child still loved to bother her.
She was already in her 70s. Didn’t this kid know that the elderly were tired?
“Imperial grandmother, quickly look at these answer scrolls. Your grandson is telling you, your grandson is planning to let one of them stay in the Hanlin Academy for two or three years and send him to a good place!” The Emperor said excitedly.
The question that the Empress Dowager had set was how to deal with the territories of the previous dynasties that had not been conquered by the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty when he first established the country.
The Empress Dowager received it and looked through it one by one.
The one at the top was Huo Junhao’s. After reading it, she said, ” this child should be young and should be from a scholarly family. Is he the little boy from the Huo family? ”
The Emperor nodded,”Yes, that’s right.” His grandson planned to pick him as a flower lover! With his appearance, he was worthy of the title of flower lover. Since ancient times, didn’t our flower-searching lang always have to be handsome?”
Grand Empress Dowager Xiao did not say anything and continued to read: “From this essay, it can be seen that this person has a deep understanding of the suffering of the people and his views are pertinent and not biased. He’s tactful, but he has his own ambitions.”
The Emperor nodded. this candidate is from Jiangnan. He didn’t get a good ranking in the village examination. However, he was ranked third in the general examination. Two days ago, he was forced by Jing He to draw for her! Your grandson wants to pick him as the second place.”
The Grand Empress Dowager picked up another copy and started reading.
She had a review for each one, and her reviews were very accurate. The emperor’s respect for her continued to rise.
The last one was Gu shouxin’s. She picked it up, but after reading it, she didn’t immediately comment, but frowned.
