Chapter 57 The Emperor Wants His Ministers to Take the Exam Again!

The whole study room was quiet.

"Jiang Yixu!"

The emperor suddenly asked a torture question.

"The Way of the University, what does this sentence mean?!"

The ministers in the room were confused.

"What does the emperor mean?"

"Why did you suddenly ask Minister Jiang to write an article, or to explain it in the University?"

"It's so simple, what's the difficulty?"

The ministers in the meeting room, from the chief minister of the cabinet, Mr. Fucha, to the three deputy ministers, were all confused.

They were getting more and more confused about the emperor's style of doing things.

It was outrageous that the emperor met with the ministers holding the little princess.

The ministers advised, but the emperor actually gave the imperial examination questions!

And who was he looking down on by giving such a simple question?

This question was so simple that it was outrageous, and anyone who had read a book would know it.

The ministers were all at a loss.

But soon, the officials of the six ministries all felt that something was wrong.

Because the arrogance and nobleness on Jiang Yixu's face, who was being questioned, slowly turned pale.

He opened his mouth stiffly, and trembled without words.

The other officials around him thought that the emperor's questions were stupid, but they waited and waited, but they couldn't get Jiang Yixu's answer!

The confused expressions of the ministers gradually turned into astonishment!

They looked at Jiang Yixu in disbelief!

Emperor Xiao Yunzhou sneered, "Why is Lord Jiang silent?"

"When you just insulted me, you were eloquent, why are you mute now?"

Jiang Yixu's body trembled.

The ministers raised their eyebrows.

Xiao Yunzhou held the little princess and stepped forward with a cold face, "Jiang Yixu, you can't even write a sentence for the palace examination, can you?"

"You can't even understand the outline of the entire "Great Learning"!"

Xiao Yunzhou laughed in anger.

The way of the university is to manifest virtue, to be close to the people, and to stop at the highest good.

This test question is simple, let alone the Jinshi, even any little scholar can speak eloquently.

Because, it is the first sentence of "The Great Learning"!

The teacher will talk about it when you get started with "The Great Learning"!

Those who don't know this sentence are not much different from the semi-illiterate in the imperial examination.

"This, this, I have been busy with my duties for many years and haven't read for a long time." Jiang Yixu's knees suddenly weakened and he knelt down with sweat on his forehead, "I am ashamed, I forgot... I forgot why..."

The ministers opened their mouths.

Even the Prime Minister Fu Cha was shocked and widened his dim old eyes.

They couldn't believe that there were such stupid people around them.

The Minister of Personnel... He even forgot the meaning of the first sentence of the book!

The water in his imperial examination results was about to flood the hall!

Xiao Yunzhou closed his eyes.

"If I hold my daughter in my arms and handle official business, I will be laughed at by scholars all over the world."

"But scholars all over the world don't know that the upright people they think speak for the world are only knowledgeable."

"Really ignorant!"

"Worse than shit!"

Xiao Yunzhou sprayed it on Jiang Yixu's head!

Sprayed it on the faces of the ministers!

"Immediately arrest Jiang Yixu and deprive him of his honors! Summon the commander of the Jinyiwei to meet with me and thoroughly investigate the qualifications of the imperial examinations in previous years!"

"In addition, five days later, a table will be set up inside the Zhengyang Gate, and I will test all officials for their civil and military achievements!"

"You know nothing, resign yourself! Or go back to study for me!"

Jiang Yixu fell to the ground like a boneless person.

The ministers were stunned.

What?

Mu Xiu is not enough to farm, and he has to take the exam again?

Damn it!

Even the first and second assistants stared at Jiang Yixu as if he were an enemy!

This black sheep!

They have been badly hurt!

After Xiao Yunzhou finished scolding, he still felt that it was not enough, and he had not vented enough. He waved his hand and said, "Wei Zheng, in the assessment in five days, put those guys who scolded me in the first and second rows! I want to focus on marking the papers."

"I want to see what kind of people are teaching me how to do things!"

The ministers were stunned.

[Wow, the emperor is so powerful. My God, our Jing country is rolling up. ]

Xiao Chuchu was in the emperor's arms, holding a rattle in her two little hands, and she happily clacked it.

[We ordinary people are so happy today~]

[The emperor is great. He should let capable people go up to be officials! Those who are incompetent should roll down! ]

Xiao Yunzhou almost smiled, but immediately gritted his teeth and maintained a serious image in front of the ministers.

His baby little princess, how can she speak so sweetly and so cutely?

The praise made him float.

Not to mention, he just vented his anger on all the officials, and now he is so happy.

"Well, Wei Zheng, draft an edict for me again."

"Liu Wenchang, temporarily take over the position of the Minister of Personnel." Xiao Yunzhou was in a good mood, and he remembered that the vacancy should be left to the master of the Liu family who has made achievements recently.

Wei Zheng was secretly shocked.

The officials of the cabinet and the six ministries were speechless.

Master Liu was promoted again! ?

He was a fourth-rank official a while ago, but now he is a third-rank official?

Master Liu was not summoned by the emperor, and he is still at home!

Damn it, he was promoted again just like that?

When several officials were about to refute, Xiao Yunzhou drove them away.

"Go study, I will test you in five days."

"If you can't pass the test, don't blame me for being heartless."

"Master Liu is like this, and so are you. I will not be partial!"

The ministers took a breath.

And Xiao Chuchu soon heard the prompt from her system.

"Congratulations to the host, the emperor has cleared a corrupt official (third-rank official) and tested all officials. The national strength of Jingguo is rising slightly."

Xiao Chuchu couldn't help but grin.

*

Outside the imperial city, the Min family.

Xiao Chuchu's grandmother, Madam Liu, personally sent Min Rou and her two frightened little daughters back to the Min family.

Old Madam Min looked at her skinny daughter and granddaughters, tears were about to fall, and she was unwilling to let go of Old Madam Liu's hand.

"If it weren't for you and the queen, we don't know what would have happened."

"I'm too busy today, otherwise I'll let you have dinner before leaving."

A pair of children still need to be comforted, and Min Rou's eyes are also red.

It's impolite to entertain guests now.

But as soon as the old lady of the Min family finished speaking, Min Rou came forward with red eyes, "Mother, it's okay, Concubine Liu and the old lady are kind, and they won't bother with us."

She bowed to Old Madam Liu, "Are you hungry, old lady? Come in and have dinner before leaving."

Old Madam Min frowned.

"Oh, no, I'm not hungry, I'll go back to see the old man at home first. He went out to farm today, and I don't know how his waist is." Old Madam Liu was not polite and said goodbye quickly.

"Don't worry about it, it's just a small favor for us."

Old Madam Liu got on the carriage and left, and left cakes for the children.

The old lady of the Min family watched the carriage leave, then frowned slightly and looked at her daughter.

"What's the matter? Why are you so ignorant today?"

"You still have to be polite, not to mention that the Liu family is your and your child's savior, how can you be disrespectful?"

Min Rou took a deep breath.

If it was just a benefactor relationship, then she would definitely not invite Old Lady Liu to have dinner today, and would only wait until she was well rested tomorrow, and then bring the child to thank her solemnly.

But...

Min Rou closed her eyes and opened them again, remembering the soft and sticky sound she heard when sewing winter clothes.

Her eldest daughter will be the wife of the fifth prince of the Liu family in the future.

Their Min and Liu families will be in-laws in the future.

Min Rou looked at her mother with a complicated expression, "Mom, don't ask. But in short, we have to be more motivated in the future, respect and appreciate the Liu family, and don't be too polite."

She had a lot of things in her mind but couldn't say them.

Otherwise? Say that as the future mother-in-law of the little princess's biological brother, she heard the little princess's voice?

Min Rou swallowed her words and finally just looked at the palace wall that was vaguely visible in the distance.

"Mother, I want to ask a teacher for Zhi'er and Lu'er."

"Ah?" Old Madam Min was surprised, "A woman's virtue is her lack of talent!"

Min Rou shook her head.

Her eyes were firm.

Old Madam Liu and Concubine Liu were both educated.

Compared to her, who was easily flustered when encountering things, they were much calmer. If they hadn't handled the problem calmly and quickly today, her Lu'er might have been gone.

It can be seen that women should also study!

"I have thought about it. After all, it's not enough to serve a man with beauty. You can only wait for him to be ruthless. Women can only stand up on their own!"

Min Rou hoped that her two daughters could be self-reliant and live a good life without a husband.

With a husband, she can also go hand in hand with her husband!

"I will go to find the teacher tomorrow."

Old Madam Min was surprised.

And Old Madam Liu, who hurried home in a carriage, was also shocked.

She heard Wei Zheng's order as soon as she got off the car.

"Master Liu, congratulations, you have been promoted to the third-rank minister."

What?

Old Madam Liu paused when she climbed out of the car.

She had only been out for a day, and the Liu family had been promoted again?

This official rank was growing faster than the cabbages in her field!

But Wei Zheng's next sentence made the couple laugh and cry.

"Five days later, the emperor will assess all officials. If Old Liu fails, the emperor will also dismiss him." Wei Zheng reminded.

Master Liu: "..."

Madam Liu: "..."

They looked at each other with strange expressions, happy but trying to hold back.

Oh, other families may not be able to do it.

But I'm not afraid of the exam.

Master Liu studied for more than ten years and took the exam three times!

The imperial examination results couldn't be more real!

I don't know how many sets of exam questions in previous years he had done!
