"Imperial Father, since this poem has been written, can I go back to sleep now?”
Li Zhi didn't care what others said. Since this matter was about to be settled, he had to hurry back to sleep.
"Good, good, good. If there's nothing else, then zhen will let Zhi Nu go back. Do you have anything else to ask?”
Li Zhi had made Li Shiming's face tense up.
He had gained enough face in front of the ministers, so he would naturally grant Li Zhi's requests.
Even Li Shimin was thinking of sending the reward money to Li Zhi.
No, no, how could it be enough just to reward him with money?
"Zhi Nu, wait a moment. Your performance today has made me very pleased. You are talented and intelligent. I have decided to reward you in advance! Men, announce the decree to the world! Although the Ninth Prince Li Zhi was young and ignorant, he had the talent of a scholar! Today, I grant him the title of King of Jin and 500 households of food city! 5,000 strings of money! A hundred maidservants!"
Li Shimin was getting more and more excited.
He directly increased the reward he had promised yesterday and threw it out in one breath.
Regarding Li Zhi's reward, even Wei Zheng, who was usually the most talkative, could not say anything at this moment.
The others did not have any objections.
After all, this wasn't a loss to them.
Moreover, Li Zhi's sudden favor made many people start to have thoughts.
Right now, the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince were fighting in the court.
Suddenly, the Ninth Prince was favored.
This was quite a scene of the Three Kingdoms.
"Your son thanks Imperial Father for the reward!"
Li Zhi did not expect that he would be able to earn money just by making a trip to the imperial court. This was a great deal.
Li Zhi didn't care about Prince Jin.
Money was king, wasn't it?
After pretending to bow, Li Zhi ran out with his short legs.
At a corner outside the Great Ming Palace, four pretty girls were waiting quietly beside a small sedan chair.
Because Li Zhi was young, no matter where he went, he was served by four servant girls carrying a small sedan chair.
This was something Li Shimin had personally agreed to.
This was unique in the Imperial Palace.
Li Shi Min looked at Li Zhi who had walked out of the hall, and his expression gradually eased.
Now that they had finished talking about the child prodigy, it was time to move on to today's big show.
"Everyone, the imperial examination is just around the corner, but the proposal for the imperial examination has not been finalized yet. After reading the proposal sent to me by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs yesterday, I still feel that it is not suitable. Therefore, I drafted it overnight.”
As for the three questions that Li Zhi had proposed last night, Li Shimin shamelessly said that it was his idea.
It wasn't that he was greedy for this bit of reputation. The main thing was that there was a limit to everything.
If Li Zhi was able to compose a poem at the age of five, even if he was stunning, he would only be called a prodigy and would only be surprised.
However, if a five-year-old child had proposed the imperial examination…
Then this was really a little too smart.
Li Shimin knew that when things reached an extreme, they would reverse.
Moreover, the imperial examinations were not child's play. It would be more intimidating if he, the emperor, proposed it.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's not convenient for us to look through the proposal for the imperial examination! After all, this concerned the life of a student. If it was leaked, it would be a disaster for all the students in the world!”
When Zhangsun Wuji heard that Li Shiming wanted everyone present to look at the examination questions, he frowned slightly and quickly stood up to stop him.
The first prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, Fang Xuanling, also stood out to express his rebuttal.
Even if the proposal for the imperial examination was not finalized, it could not be so casually given to everyone!
His Majesty was openly showing it to all the officials. Wasn't he just fooling around?
"Assistant, Xuan Ling, I naturally have my own considerations regarding the questions you mentioned. However, the questions this time are different. You can take a look first.”
"This…"
Zhangsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling looked at each other. Seeing that Li Shimin had made up his mind, they didn't say anything more.
As an official, it was not good to exhort too much.
Since the two of them had no objections, the others naturally could not say anything else.
Then, under Li Shiming's understanding, the eunuchs walked into the hall with the papers in their hands.
All the officials received a copy.
When they saw what was written on the paper, they all frowned.
Using this for the exam?
Then this Imperial Examination would probably be completely wiped out!
Moreover, some of the people who had already decided on the top spot for this year's imperial examination immediately felt uneasy.
His Majesty had used such a question as a test. Wasn't it obvious that he didn't want their people to enter the court?
What was the difference between showing them this question today and telling them directly?
"Your Majesty, if we use this as a test, I'm afraid it will cause many students to complain!”
"That's right, Your Majesty. I have studied hard for more than ten years just to participate in the imperial examination. If this is the topic, I'm afraid..."
"Your Majesty, even everyone present might not be able to solve this question. It's inevitable that it's a little difficult for a group of students to take the test!”
