"Whoosh…"
In the morning court of Xianyang Palace, the civil and military officials had just bowed and saluted the First Emperor when they heard a yawn.
As the hall was silent after everyone finished their yawning, the yawn was abrupt and loud.
All the civil and military officials looked in the direction of the voice and saw a handsome young man covering his mouth with one hand and yawning sleepily.
Seeing that it was him, the ministers shook their heads with bitter smiles.
This yawning handsome youth was none other than the famous Ninth Young Master, Ying Ziye.
He was famous because he was the most useless one among all the princes and princesses!
Don't even talk about reading!
It was said that he didn't even know how to read!
The First Emperor had assigned him ten tutors, and nine of them vomited blood because of his anger!
Although the remaining one did not vomit blood, he had gone crazy!
If he couldn't be civil, the First Emperor would let him practice martial arts!
Riding and archery, swordsmanship, cudgel, and boxing were all assigned a martial master.
However, after five years, this kid still had no progress in martial arts.
He didn't even dare to ride a horse, let alone a simple riding archery skill!
However, the evil slaves in his residence were all trained to be agile!
These evil slaves had helped him harm many innocent women!
Even the imperial censors and the daughters of the prime ministers had been killed by him!
Today, this kid only yawned in the imperial court and did not fall asleep. His performance was not bad!
"Humph!"
Seeing his useless son yawning loudly in the morning court, Ying Zheng was furious.
However, after all, he was his own son, so he couldn't bear to punish him.
Moreover, this good-for-nothing son of his had such a personality. It was useless to punish him!
A good-for-nothing was still a good-for-nothing, a silkpants was still a silkpants!
"Today's court examinations will start from Jie Zheng!”
"Cough, cough…"
Ying Zheng glanced at the princes and said in a deep voice.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he started coughing violently again.
The reason why he suddenly held the court examination today was not because he had a sudden impulse, but to test the ability of the princes.
Recently, his body was getting weaker and weaker, and he had a premonition that he did not have much time left.
In order to confirm the Crown Prince candidate as soon as possible, they ordered the Imperial Examination to be held.
However, the eunuch who had issued the decree had actually sent his good-for-nothing son up.
This kid couldn't even read a few words. He would most likely make a fool of himself in public today!
"The ancients woke up really early!”
"I'm so sleepy!"
Ying Ziye yawned again as if there was no one else around. He secretly complained in his heart.
He had just transmigrated and wanted to have a good sleep.
Who would have thought that before dawn, he would be called to the court by a eunuch!
Forget it, looking at his cheapskate father's body, it seemed like he wouldn't be able to hold on for long!
Once his father died, Zhao Gao would support Huhai to usurp the throne!
At that time, the other princes and princesses would all be exterminated!
And he was probably doomed!
"I have to think of a way to keep my life!”
After yawning twice in a row, Ying Ziye started to think of a countermeasure.
Right now, he was invisible in front of his cheapskate father.
If he had not been summoned into the palace today, he would probably never have remembered that he had a son in this lifetime.
Therefore, it was impossible for him to become the Crown Prince and inherit the throne!
"Ding! The Acting Tough Face Slapping System has been activated!"
"System binding, please wait…!”
"The system has successfully bound the host!”
"System explanation: As long as the host acts tough and smacks his face, he will get a chance to draw!”
Just as he was thinking about it, a mechanical voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
He, who was originally frowning, could not help but feel energized!
This is a legendary golden finger!
With this cheat, what was there to be afraid of!
"Current situation detected, system has issued an option mission…!”
"Option 1: Impeach Fusu and show off in public. Reward: Maximum level calligraphy skill, all knowledge from ancient to modern times, printing, paper-making, and 1,000 pieces of Xuan paper!”
"Option 2: Impeach Huhai and show off in front of everyone. Reward: 10,000 mu of sweet potatoes, 10,000 mu of corn, 10,000 mu of potatoes, 10,000 mu of cotton, and 10,000 mu of chili. The mature form can be materialized in the real world!”
"Option 3: Impeachment of Qin Shihuang, acting tough in front of everyone, and face slapping. Reward: maximum level sword technique, maximum level riding and archery technique, and Overlord's Strength (combat strength 1000)!”
The system's voice sounded in his mind again.
At the same time, a virtual interface appeared in front of him.
On the virtual interface, there were three options.
"Only children do multiple-choice questions.”
Seeing the generous rewards for these three options, Ying Ziye was instantly happy.
Without hesitation, he chose all the options!
Since the system did not say that he could only choose one out of three, he might as well choose all of them!
He would chase a sheep or a group of sheep!
"Ding! Host, please complete three missions within four hours!”
"If it's too late, you won't be able to lift it for life!"
Just as he made his choice, the system's voice sounded again.
"The so-called questioning can point out the maladministration of the court and impeach the officials!”
"In short, I don't want to listen to flattery today. I only want to listen to admonition!”
"We only want to know what problems Great Qin has encountered!”
At the same time, Ying Zheng, who was sitting on the dragon throne, continued to speak with a dignified expression.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the princes were dumbfounded.
They had never thought that their father would be so difficult to deal with in the first Imperial Examination.
They were not allowed to answer some questions about governing the country, but they were allowed to find faults in the court.
Who would dare to do that?
If he pointed out some of the malpractices in the court, wouldn't he be slapping his father in the face?
However, if he impeached the officials, he would offend the ministers in the court!
If they lost the support of the officials in the court, they would have no chance of becoming the Crown Prince.
All of a sudden, the princes looked at each other with fear.
Especially Huhai, who was sweating profusely.
He and his eldest brother, Fusu, were the most promising candidates to become the Crown Prince.
However, his father's sudden singing had completely pushed him to the cusp of the storm!
Provoking the maladministration of the court and impeaching the officials would only make him enemies!
However, not doing so would be disobeying the imperial edict!
If he angered Imperial Father, he would be even further away from the position of Crown Prince!
For a moment, his heart was filled with fear and unease, not knowing what to do.
Without a mind of his own, he subconsciously looked at Zhao Gao, who was standing beside Ying Zheng.
However, Zhao Gao stood with his hands down and did not even look at him.
No Zhao Gao's guidance, no heart, no bottom!
"Fu Su, let's start with you!”
Just as he was in a daze, his father spoke indifferently.
"Your son obeys!"
Fu Su bowed respectfully to Ying Zheng, who was sitting on the Dragon Throne, and then calmly accepted the order.
Seeing that he didn't show any signs of panic, Huhai was very curious.
Curious about how his big brother would answer?
At the same time, the court officials who supported the Fusu faction were secretly worried for Fusu.
The question that the First Emperor set was a dead end.
If the answer was not good, he would not be able to become the Crown Prince.
If it was serious, it would cause a fatal disaster!
In an instant, the atmosphere in the royal court became heavy.
