"General Wang, what do you mean? Are you hinting at this king?”
Thinking of what Wang Jian had said just now, Ying Zheng rolled his eyes repeatedly. Under the table, Concubine Yan seemed to be worried that he would get angry, so she placed her jade-like hand on Ying Zheng's hand and pinched it gently.
Sensing her small movements, Ying Zheng shook his head, but did not explain.
In fact, he had a good relationship with these ministers in private.
Not to mention everything, an important official like Wang Jian knew that he would not get angry easily.
"Your Majesty is wise. Although General Wang's words are a little unpleasant, he is worried about the martial arts students of the world. This time, I came with him in the hope that Your Majesty can think for the martial arts students of the world.”
"Most of them have been practicing martial arts since they were young, so not many of them are literate.”
"If they participate in the imperial examinations, wouldn't that be disadvantageous to them? Our Qin country values martial arts. After a long time, those who want to enter the Qin country have abandoned martial arts and chosen literature, which is disadvantageous to Great Qin.”
Compared to Wang Jian, Meng Ao had the art of speech. It was pleasant to the ears and to the point. He was worried about the country and its people.
Just this?
So it was this.
Hearing Meng Ao's words, Ying Zheng finally understood that the reason why the two of them had come here was because of the unfairness of the Civil Examination to the martial students.
After all, this group of martial arts students could not be careless when it came to fighting, but when it came to using their brains and words, not many could compare to those scholars.
Not every martial artist was as smart as these two.
"Hahaha!"
Ying Zheng laughed out loud, while touching the back of Lady Yan's hand with his other hand. Then, he turned to look at the two people who were still in a daze.
"The two of you are here because of this?"
"Ah... Yes, Your Majesty, this matter is not a small matter.”
The two of them were stunned. They had already prepared themselves for this. Even if they had to stay here today and make Ying Zheng angry, they would have him change the environment for the martial students to take the exam. But in the end, what they got was Ying Zheng's laughter.
This was…
What the hell!
The determination in their hearts was dispersed by Ying Zheng's smile.
"It was this king's negligence that I didn't explain clearly before.”
After laughing for a while, Ying Zheng took out what he had written in the morning and asked Zhao Gao to pass it to the two of them. At the same time, he added,""Actually, the imperial examination is divided into two parts, the liberal arts and the martial arts.”
"The liberal arts test the knowledge of the scholars in the world.”
"The martial sciences test the martial arts of all martial artists in the world.”
"The two are separated. Students who want to apply can choose to apply for it themselves.”
"Oh, I see."
At this moment, Wang Jian was enlightened. He looked as if he had understood everything. At the same time, he looked at the contents of the martial sciences test that Zhao Gao handed over.
"Long-distance running, battle, sand table exercise, emergency response, flag signal, command."
"Wonderful! Wonderful!"
When they saw this martial science examination document, both Wang Jian and Meng Ao felt that it was completely in line with their martial science examination.
After all, wasn't this what they needed to go into battle to kill enemies?
This was especially true for generals. These skills were practically indispensable. In this aspect, the one who had the most say was him, Wang Jian.
During the Qin and Han Dynasties, the more soldiers the better. Other than Han Xin, there was also Wang Jian!
Wang Jian naturally understood the hidden meaning behind these things, and in his heart, he was extremely in favor of this kind of examination.
"Your Majesty, if Great Qin's Generals are selected according to this method, the army will definitely be filled with talents in the future. There's no need to worry about the Generals being incompetent.”
"Who wrote this? It's all to help our military accumulate strength.”
"Your Majesty, if you really want a heavy reward, a heavy reward!”
After reading the contents of the martial science examination, Wang Jian and Meng Ao were both overjoyed. They were filled with anticipation for this martial science examination. Among them, Wang Jian was full of admiration for the person who wrote this martial science examination, and even asked for a reward in front of Ying Zheng.
Looking at the history of Qin, only Wang Jian dared to say so.
Even in the era that Ying Zheng had transmigrated to, Wang Jian still dared to say that, just like in history.
"Wang Qing, are you illiterate? Aren't you familiar with this handwriting?”At this moment, Ying Zheng heard that Wang Jian wanted him to reward him, and he looked at him with a strange expression.
This Wang Jian's brain was so bad today?
"Yes... Your Majesty, did you write this?" How could Wang Jian not know that the content of the martial sciences that made him lose his composure was written by Ying Zheng?
"If it isn't this king, then who is it?"
Hearing this, Ying Zheng rolled his eyes at him, then raised his eyebrows. Thinking of what Wang Jian had said earlier, Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows and said,""General Wang, what do you think?”
"This king is really sad to be said like this by you. I even prepared an imperial edict for you, but in the end, I have no choice.”
"Forget it, let's put it aside for a while.”
"Puchi!"
Hearing her man's tone, Lady Yan was the first to lose her cool. This was the first time she had seen Ying Zheng in such a state. She could not help but laugh, but she quickly stopped herself.
On the other side, Wang Jian and Meng Ao were stunned. They did not expect their king to do this. Although his status did not match, it could not be helped that it was his status that made him do this. It seemed even more intimate.
After seeing Ying Zheng doing this, the two of them felt even more intimate.
It was like a certain Wang didn't go to a high-class club or bar, but went to a food stall instead. He even ate like you, chatting and laughing. Although this was a little unworthy of the title of the son of the richest man, it was surprisingly close to you.
Due to the difference in status, sometimes doing the same thing would bring about unexpected results.
It was also Ying Zheng's method to win over important officials.
"Your Majesty, you've wronged this old minister. This old minister has no such intentions!”
At this moment, the clever Wang Jian could tell that Ying Zheng's other decree was definitely not bad. How could he not know that? He immediately admitted defeat.
"Your Majesty, this old minister definitely doesn't have such bad intentions. I'm just worried that my military students won't do well in the exam, causing the generals of my army to be unable to keep up.”
“....”
This old man was really good at exonerating himself.
Seeing this, Ying Zheng was laughing and scolding in his heart. But seeing Wang Jian treat him like this, Ying Zheng was even happier, because this way, he would be much closer to Wang Jian.
One had to know that there was a difference between monarch and minister. Moreover, the age gap between the two was still very large.
"Alright, alright!"
"Aren't you noisy!"
"You can take this back too. This is the conscription order that this king has decided on recently!”
"Conscription order?"
Upon hearing this, the two of them immediately quivered. They were smart enough to know why Ying Zheng was recruiting soldiers.
A war was about to begin!
Generally speaking, the premise of going to war was not to find a reason. If you wanted to go to war, you had to recruit soldiers. These soldiers were not used to go to the front line, but to serve as reserve forces.
Usually, it would be half a year to a year in advance. After all, training to fight a battle required time.
Back then, Meng Ao had sent out his troops a year earlier, which was why they had an endless supply of soldiers and were almost crushed in the later stages.
Moreover, the people of the other countries might have scruples about war, but in the Qin country, especially the old Qin people, they would not be like this.
They couldn't wait to go to war. War = military merit = nobility.
The Qin country's military merit system had been used until now, and the soul of Zhan Kuang had already been imprinted in the bones of the old Qin people, unable to be removed.
