In the following days, Che Mingde was devoted to the palace examination, and even reached the point where he could not leave his home, as if other things had become irrelevant to him, and even refused all invitations and visits.
A month passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, Che Mingde was already in the palace examination hall of the Imperial Palace.
Even if the hall was stuffed into three hundred states, it still seemed quite empty, and the officials of the Imperial Palace had already begun to distribute test papers.
Since Che Mingde's father experienced it, he has heard more than once during the palace examination, and now it is his turn.
I recalled that I took the bus to come early in the morning before dawn, but I didn’t expect that when I got off, I realized that it was the young lady Liang Baiyun who drove for me.
Che Mingde didn't know if this was arranged or reminded by Liang Changmao, but she did take the initiative to drive for herself, and she didn't even reveal her identity on the way, which made Che Mingde realize that this girl had already begun to accept her fate?
Liang Changmao once had the prefectures of many government officials, but now the prefectures have been replaced by someone else, and he is Li Ren, who is the royal family. In short, he is also the cousin of Li Jun, the current emperor of Jingguo.
According to Liang Changmao's words, after he stepped down, His Majesty did not want the prince-like people to take this position, so he chose Li Ren.
After everyone was in their own position, the official in charge of the assessment checked everyone's identities again, and Che Mingde was still thinking. At this moment, he followed a white-haired eunuch and shouted to everyone: "Your Majesty is here!"
As the sound slowly fell, a middle-aged man in a dragon robe walked in while coughing lightly.
"Long live Your Majesty!" After seeing the visitor, everyone shouted and bowed down.
Emperor Li Jun of Jing Kingdom walked to the dragon chaise money prepared in the morning in the main hall, sat down, took the tea handed over by the eunuch, took a sip, moistened his throat, and then said, "Get up, all the talents."
When Che Mingde stood up, he looked at the Emperor. Although he looked about forty years, it was very different from what he heard from his father, let alone when his father came here for the scientific examination.
The Lord of Jingguo in front of him was still tall but not as tall as his father described, and was so majestic. It seemed that his body was really beginning to go downhill. However, when Che Mingde noticed this person's gaze, he found that his gaze was still as sharp as his father said.
With a sharp look, the man said slowly: "Today is the day of the national examination. The national examination is the foundation of the country. You are all talented people in various states. I am eager to seek talent. The court is the time to recruit the false Ming Dynasty in the north. It is the time when the talent for governing the country is most needed. I hope you will do your best to show your strengths. Don't let me, Jingguo, and you will not let you down. Regret, let me start."
As Li Jun said, everyone held their breath and was waiting for His Majesty to make a question.
Li Jun coughed a few more times, took another sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then said: "Now the north is now settled, Jing Kingdom is booming, but it also breeds disadvantages in the prosperous era. A few days ago, Tangzhou broke the dike, causing the water of the Xi River to flood the eleven counties in Tangzhou. I sent an imperial envoy to find out that the Xi River embankment was in a mess, and most of the money for repairing the embankment has been greedy for many years. This makes me feel heartbroken. Today's question is how to build the embankment of the imperial court and prevent problems before it happens. Otherwise, the Ming Dynasty's yesterday will be the tomorrow of the Jing Kingdom."
When Che Mingde heard this question, he thought about it.
Compared to the last scientific examination, this time the questions are obviously different from what many people have prepared.
The last time I was at Mie Ming, the test questions naturally would not escape the relationship between Mie Ming. But this time I think many people would dominate the world, but who knew that this was indeed the case.
If he hadn't had a detailed conversation with Liang Changmao, Che Mingde would have thought it would be related to unification of the world, but now he felt that it was natural for His Majesty to have such a problem.
The Xi River in Tangzhou broke the dam half a year ago. This year, the summer began early in the south, and the excess, the melting snow and rain in Changlong Mountain together led to the Xi River, which originated from the northern foot of Changlong Mountain. The water surged. By the end of spring and early summer, the Tangzhou embankment collapsed and flooded most of the Tangzhou eleven counties, causing disasters in Tangzhou, resulting in 200,000 refugees, which shocked the court and the public for a while. His Majesty immediately sent an imperial envoy and finally discovered that the river embankment project started more than ten years ago was built for five or six years, but the dam was vulnerable. This furious Your Majesty. Almost all the officials involved were taken down that year, implicated nearly 100 officials above the county magistrate, and more than half of the officials in the entire Tangzhou were replaced.
Such things are actually no longer rare in Jingguo today. With the decades in which Jingguo was established, it has become a third generation emperor, and it is normal for various shortcomings to emerge, not to mention that wealthy families from all sides have gradually formed, and the problems of Jingguo are actually very serious.
Che Mingde slowly polished the ink, thinking in his mind how to eliminate the disadvantages, whether he wanted to point out the harm of the family, or just talk about the administration of the officials.
Just as he was thinking, he noticed that many people around him had already started writing, but he was still thinking, because the more he thought, the more he felt that this was something that could not be cured, and it was even a kind of Tao.
When he thought of Tao, a sudden light of inspiration flashed in front of him. He suddenly felt enlightened. He couldn't help but mocked his previous sorrow, and then picked up his pen and started writing.
The palace examination started when the sun was noon. When noon just passed, someone actually got up, and the time was not even half past.
Che Mingde didn't care about this. After all, there have always been people who hand in the paper early, which can attract attention to some extent.
The official in charge of the scientific examination immediately sent his answer sheet to Li Jun. At this time, Li Jun cheered up some energy and began to browse it. However, Li Jun just read the paper that was completed early and put it aside, and he was completely uninterested.
When Li Ren, who was beside him, picked it up and looked at it. After reading it, he shook his head.
Seeing Li Ren, he shook his head, Li Jun smiled bitterly: "Brother, how can such a pedantic person pass the state test and become a state master?"
When Li Ren heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid the test questions of each state are different. Perhaps he is better at other things, such as the way of merchants or teaching."
Li Jun also smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "Brother, you have been a good person since you were a child. No matter who you are, you will not offend anyone. You know, but there is nothing you can do about this."
Just as the two sides were talking, another paper was also delivered.
Li Ren looked at the person who went out this time and immediately said, "Your Majesty, this one belongs to a poor family."
