"Brother Bowen, what do you think will happen to the imperial examinations this time?”
At this moment, in the guest hall, Li Si was a little excited about the upcoming exam.
It wasn't that his mental state wasn't good, but that he was a little excited to face such an opportunity to rise to the top in a single step.
Not only him, even Liu Bowen and the others were the same.
Moreover, they had experienced many things during this period of time, from the rebellion of the three families to Ying Zheng's suppression.
The matter of the Chu Country's emissary and the envoys from various countries entering Qin.
All these things caused everyone's mood to fluctuate.
Especially because of what had happened during the imperial examination, Liu Bowen and the others were afraid that Ying Zheng would not hold the imperial examination in order to stabilize the government.
Even if it was clearly stated that the imperial examination would be held, they did not dare to make any guarantees before the matter was settled.
They were still worried about the exam today…
There was no other reason than that it was related to them. Before it was settled, their hearts were all hanging in suspense.
Because of this, everyone was chatting and laughing. Li Si was not as vicious as he would be in the future and was now on Liu Bowen's side.
It could be considered a small group, a small group unified by the State of Qin.
"It will be held."
Liu Bowen was also panicking at this time, but when he saw everyone looking at him, he had to say this.
On one hand, he comforted others, and on the other, he comforted himself.
"Two months have passed. If the king wanted to compromise, he would have informed us long ago, not now.”
After saying a rather reliable analysis, everyone slowly calmed down.
After a while, they saw Wang Wan, who was dressed in court clothes, walk to the front of the guest house.
Seeing Wang Wan, everyone immediately quieted down. Those who knew his name were delighted.
This was not because he was the Prime Minister, but because Ying Zheng had personally appointed him as the chief examiner yesterday.
As for why it was only decided yesterday, it was mainly to prevent anyone from bribing the examiner.
The first imperial examination of the Qin Dynasty could be imperfect, but there could not be any mistakes in the selection of officials.
That was why Ying Zheng had been holding back until yesterday, forcing some of those who had ulterior motives to give up.
"Dear students who have come from afar, my Wang Wan, on behalf of the Qin Dynasty, on behalf of the king, welcomes everyone to participate in the imperial examination.”
"The imperial examination is divided into martial arts and liberal arts. Each subject has six small subjects, all of which are related to what you usually learn.”
"Now, I'm applying for martial arts and liberal arts. I'll have to ask all of you to make your choices.”
"Lord Wang, what is the liberal arts and what is the martial arts?”
Hearing Wang Wan's words, a student asked him from the crowd.
"Humanities, learning, and knowledge.”
"Martial sciences, martial arts, the art of fighting the enemy, and becoming a general in court.”
"Oh, I see."
Hearing Wang Wan's explanation, everyone understood. Some of the martial arts students heaved a sigh of relief. They secretly sighed at the meticulous mind of the King of Qin. He could actually divide it like this.
Ying Zheng had only told Wang Jian and the others about the Civil and Martial Arts section, and had not spread it out. Therefore, it was normal that these students did not know about it.
Seeing them like this, Wang Wan said to them,""In that case, everyone should hurry up and register. The registration time is two hours. We will send everyone to the examination venue after two hours.”
"I, I'll sign up!"
"I'm in humanities!"
“....”
As soon as Wang Wan finished speaking, the previously quiet crowd began to move. They all rushed towards the registration officials.
Fortunately, they had prepared beforehand. Even though it was very noisy now, it was not chaotic. Everyone registered in an orderly manner.
Two hours later, Wang Wan brought Wensheng to the outskirts of the city for the exam.
As for these martial students, they were led away by Meng Ao and Wang Jian, who were the chief examiners arranged by Ying Zheng.
The first imperial examination in the Qin Dynasty was also born under such circumstances.
But now, Ying Zheng did not care about these things.
It was still the same sentence. Leave it to them to do things. Don't worry.
As for now, he was in front of a luxurious door. He looked around and saw the big word Gongshu. He could not help but click his tongue in wonder.
With money, one could do whatever they wanted.
It turned out that he had heard yesterday that the Gongshu family had arrived in Xianyang, so he planned to come over today to take a look.
In the end, he did not expect that only a day had passed and the Gongshu family had already bought a house.
Ying Zheng could not help but praise the greatness of money!
"Master, this is the Gongshu family's residence.”
At this moment, Zhao Gao was standing in front of Ying Zheng, and Ge Nia was following him on the other side.
"Yes!"
"Knock on the door!"
"Here!"
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Zhao Gao immediately knocked on the door. After informing the guard of his visit and his identity, he was invited into the house by a steward.
"Grandpa Gongshu, actually, what's so good about coming to Xianyang? It's better to stay in Wei.”
"Look, my grandfather is so good to you. He arranged a house for you and so on.”
"It's not like here. You have to buy your own house when you come over. It's obvious that it's not good for you!”
As soon as he entered the hall, Ying Zheng heard a voice coming from the courtyard.
It was the voice of a beautiful young girl!
“....”
Am I being mocked as soon as I arrive?
Ying Zheng, who was following behind the butler, could not help but curl his lips, but his expression was very well managed.
The steward was also feeling a little helpless. Obviously, he knew something. It was fortunate that he did not know Ying Zheng's true identity, or else he would be breaking out in cold sweat right now.
Fortunately, after the girl spoke, an old voice sounded,"Li Ji, what are you saying? This old man can't go anywhere.”
"As for you, in order to persuade this old man to return to the State of Wei, you followed me to the State of Qin. Aren't you afraid that the nobles of the State of Qin will take a fancy to a beauty like you?”
Li Ji?
well
What a familiar name.
Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng could not help but feel a sense of familiarity. But before he could think too much, he was led by the steward into a courtyard, and everything in the courtyard appeared before him.
The courtyard was extremely large. On the left was a rockery and a pond, on the right was a bamboo mountain and a sea of flowers, and in the middle was a stone table. From the foot of Ying Zheng to the stone table, except for a stone path, the rest of the place was covered with green grass.
This made Ying Zheng nod. At least the scenery was quite good, unlike the description of the Gongshu family in the original novel.
Other than darkness, there was only darkness.
At this moment, there were three people sitting at the stone table.
One of them was an old man sitting comfortably on a rocking chair, looking at ease. Beside him was a young girl who was tirelessly saying good things about the country.
She looked like she was only seventeen or eighteen years old. She was beautiful, had cherry red lips, and snow-white skin. Her cute big eyes were looking at the strange old man sitting on the rocking chair in front of her, wanting to hear her opinion.
Her long, dark purple hair was tied into small balls on both sides. She was dressed in a tight outfit, unlike other women's outfits, but she looked particularly valiant and lively.
At this moment, how could Ying Zheng not know who this beauty was?
A name immediately entered Ying Zheng's mind: Gongsun Liji!
Qin Shizhong, Jing Tianming's mother.
However, according to the current situation, she, who should have been sent to the Qin Palace to give birth, had yet to enter the palace.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng looked at her posture again.
