Qilin Palace.
The crater caused by the black gunpowder had yet to be repaired.
As a result, all the civil and military officials had to take a detour if they wanted to go to court.
Walking into the Qilin Hall, there was actually a huge piece of goatskin in the middle of their hall.
It was laid flat on the ground like a carpet.
The ministers filed in.
Li Si's eyes sparkled as he looked at the figure sitting on the throne and Ying Zimo who was standing obediently in front of him.
"Your Highness Fu Su, have you been to the Imperial Academy recently?”
"Hanlin Academy? I've never been there before. Why do you suddenly ask?”
Fu Su was confused.
"It's fine."
Li Si had a high position and was naturally well-informed.
It was said that during the Imperial Academy's examination, a Confucian scholar who looked very much like Fu Su appeared and even mingled with the poor scholars.
At that time, Li Si thought that it might be Fu Su himself. After all, the Eldest Young Master had always treated the wise with respect and did not care about his background.
But now it was denied by Fusu
"Will Nineteenth Brother be alright?"
Fu Su did not think too much about this question, and his tone was a little worried.
Nineteenth brother had just been released after making a contribution, and now he was in trouble again.
Many of the hanger-ons who had participated in the Imperial Academy examinations were rather famous scholars in the city, so they naturally spread the news after the event.
This caused many scholars to object.
Most of the scholars said that the Little Lord was fooling around, treating the entrance examination as a child's play.
Even in his residence, there were quite a number of guests talking about this matter.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The civil and military officials bowed in unison.
Looking at Ying Zheng, who had recovered to his peak on the Emperor's Throne, he felt a little more realistic.
Your Majesty, my life has really been extended.
Immortals were elusive?
Then why did His Majesty hint that they also had a chance to extend their lives?
Many people's thoughts became active, and they could not help but reveal their desire.
"Today's court session is mainly to announce one thing.”
"Zimo will be in charge of the Lulu Sword from now on. Let him continue to participate in state affairs.”
A calm voice rang out, clearly entering everyone's ears.
It was as if he was talking about something that should be taken for granted and insignificant.
？？？
The officials were instantly petrified.
"Your Majesty, why?"
"You've already returned to your prime, and under your leadership, Great Qin will definitely prosper in the future. Why do you still want Little Lord to participate in national affairs?”
"Women and children interfering in politics will harm the country! Please reconsider, Your Majesty!"
.......
This sentence caught everyone off guard, but after they reacted, they all objected.
What a joke!
They had only escaped from the Little Lord's clutches for a few days, and the stars and moon that they had been waiting for had finally brought the Emperor back.
In the end, it had only been a short while, and the First Emperor had actually announced that he would hand the Lulu Sword over to the Little Lord?
Why?
If His Majesty's health was deteriorating and he needed to choose an heir and test the young masters 'ability to govern the country, this couldn't be the young master, right?
Moreover, His Majesty had just recovered to his prime. It didn't make sense!
Other than Wang Jian and Dun Ruo, the other civil and military officials didn't understand what the First Emperor was doing.
"Why does Old General Wang look like it's only natural?”
Li Si noticed that Wang Jian, who was beside him, was calm as if he already knew about this.
"Your son thanks Imperial Father."
Ying Zimo was beaming with joy as he ran up and hugged the Lulu Sword.
Then, a thoughtful expression appeared on her little face.
"Imperial Father, does this Lulu Sword have the function of an imperial sword?”
"What is the imperial sword?"
"It's just that when you encounter treacherous officials, you can kill them first before reporting.”
Ying Zimo almost said that he would kill a fatuous ruler and a crafty minister.
Good heavens, he couldn't possibly let him go up and stab Brother Zheng when he didn't like him, right?
The ministers: "???"
Hearing this, all the officials felt their scalps go numb, and they instantly felt as if there was a knife on their backs.
Instantly, she felt that the smile on Ying Zimo's little face had turned evil.
Kill first and report later?
What treacherous officials and sycophants? I'm afraid that the people you don't like are all treacherous officials!
If they offended him, wouldn't they die in vain if they were killed?
The Little Lord was someone who even dared to kill Zhao Gao. How could he do such a thing!
"Act first and report later."
Brother Zheng muttered to himself as his gaze swept across the ministers.
As if he was really thinking about the feasibility of this matter
Although Little Nineteen was a little out of character, the Zhao Gao that she killed last time was a person who would bring disaster to the country and people in the future. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was a crafty sycophant.
It seemed that he really did not kill the wrong person!
"Your Majesty, you must not do this!"
"The Little Lord's actions are absurd. If we continue to indulge him, I'm afraid that he will cause a big mess in the future and damage Your Majesty's wise and mighty reputation!”
After being signaled by Feng Quji's eyes, Gan Ling took two steps forward and cupped his hands.
He was also puzzled.
His Majesty had just thrown a fit and locked the young master up a few days ago. Why did he suddenly change his attitude 180 degrees today and want the young master to wield the Lulu Sword?
To hand the power of life and death to a child, wasn't this a joke?
Little did he know that this question was exactly what Ying Zheng wanted.
"Tell me, what absurd things did Little Nineteen do recently?”
"If you have any opinions, feel free to speak freely. If Little Nineteen does anything out of line, I will naturally consider it.”
Ying Zheng's majestic voice rang out.
His expression was one of a smile but not a smile, as if he knew nothing about what had happened in the Imperial Academy.
"Your Majesty, since the Hanlin Academy is an academy established by the Great Qin Empire, how can the entrance examination be so child's play?”
"According to Little Lord, Great Qin is just a drop in the ocean? And the round sky and square earth were wrong? Such a fallacy was actually spread from the Imperial Academy, how could they convince the masses in the future!”
"This exam is undoubtedly a rejection of scholars who are truly knowledgeable. Instead, the ones who are admitted are those who are ignorant, incompetent, and opportunistic!”
.......
Except for a few people who remained silent, most people in the hall began to denounce.
Even some neutral officials joined in.
Facing these voices, Ying Zimo curled his lips as if he was facing a group of vegetables and radishes that could talk. He didn't care about them at all.
He was too lazy to explain it to some old fogeys.
After a moment of shouting, Ying Zheng's eyes turned colder and colder.
"It seems that everyone has a lot of opinions.”
The meaning of the aristocratic families couldn't be clearer. They knew what they were doing.
They were just using this as an excuse to make the Imperial Academy recruit students again and kick the poor scholars out.
However, they never expected this.
Brother Zheng himself went to take the exam!
"Your Majesty, I think we should try again.”
"In order to prevent similar things from happening again, we should select a few more knowledgeable people from the real academy to manage the Imperial Academy together with Zhang Liang.”
"As for the people who passed the exam this time, it is not an exaggeration to say that they were opportunistic. This humble subject believes that they should be disqualified.”
Gan Ling's words were powerful.
He was even prepared to extend his hand into the management of the Imperial Academy.
"Hehehe, come and bring me that list.”
"Yes!"
Wang Ben sighed in his heart when he saw the playful look on Qin Shi Huang's face.
Someone was going to be unlucky today.
The first place in this exam is His Majesty!
