Want to Fraud in the Imperial Examinations? I'll change the questions directly!
In the meeting hall.
The examiners racked their brains for a solution.
The examiner Hu Chongyi, who was in his fifties, sighed heavily.
"There's only half an hour, so it's impossible to think of a solution. The leaked exam questions must not be given out, or else we'll become part of the cheating. Why don't we stop the Imperial Examination and ask for forgiveness from His Majesty?”
The examiners were tempted.
They didn't leak the exam questions.
They were purely implicated.
Stopping the imperial examination to minimize the impact of the leaked examination questions.
After he apologized to Zhu Yuanzhang, he would re-draft the examination questions and continue with the imperial examination.
In this way, although the time for the imperial examination was delayed, it was the fairest for every examinee who participated in the imperial examination.
And their crimes would not be so heavy.
"Lord Liu, what do you think?"
"This might be a good idea.”
Liu Sanwu sat in the main seat and glanced at the expectant crowd. He frowned slightly.
He was silent.
He did not speak.
"Lord Liu, are you still worried about something?”
"We will definitely be held accountable by His Majesty for this method, but the crime is not to implicate our family. This may be the best method.”
"Lord Liu, time is of the essence.”
Some of the examiners tried to persuade him.
The young examiner's face was pale and his lips were trembling.
"If that's the case, won't we die for sure? I'm still so young. I don't want to die."
"Let's think of other ways.”
Examiner Yang Qianzhi suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
"Why don't we strictly check all the examinees and search them thoroughly? We have to open all the clothes that have a compartment. In addition, if the food they bring is biscuits, we have to open them and check them. As long as we search them strictly, we will definitely find all the cheat sheets and notes!”
"I agree with this method. This method does not need to alert His Majesty, and we can also find the cheat sheets and notes of all the cheating examinees.”
"I agree too!"
All the examiners agreed.
This method did not need to alarm Zhu Yuanzhang and could even survive. Therefore, they were more inclined to Yang Qianzhi's method.
"Nonsense!"
Liu Sanwu could not help but berate.
"Do you think the Imperial Examinations are child's play? The examinees in the Examination Hall are all High Scholars, and some of them even have official positions. If we act recklessly and search the examinees strictly, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among the examinees.”
"If the examinees complain to His Majesty, I'm afraid that His Majesty will also pursue us, and the matter of the examination questions being leaked will definitely not be hidden.”
"At that time, we will be punished and our families will be exterminated!”
"Can't you think of a better way?”
"Whether it's suspending the imperial examinations, asking for forgiveness from His Majesty, or searching all the examinees, these are all ways to invite trouble.
All of you know His Majesty's temperament. If we don't handle this matter well and cause a major impact on the imperial examination, we, and even our families, will be implicated.”
When the examiners thought of Zhu Yuanzhang's greedy personality, they couldn't help but shiver.
"Lord Liu, you say that this won't work, and that won't work either. Do you have a better way?”
Yang Qian knew that he was young and impetuous. He could not help but ask with a red face.
Liu Sanwu's hand that was stroking his beard paused.
He didn't have a better idea.
Liu Sanwu rejected both of his suggestions.
They couldn't think of a better way in a short period of time.
Liu Sanwu looked at the examiners who were frowning and thinking hard, and his heart sank.
This was the most dangerous moment in his decades as an official.
Could it be that he really had to choose between these two suggestions?
However, no matter which one it was, it was a path to death.
The only difference was whether or not fewer people died.
Yang Qianzhi felt extremely bitter.
This was his first time being the examiner of the tribute examination, and he had just started a family and was still very young. In the past years, he had passed the tribute examination safely without any disturbances. How could such a disaster happen when it was his turn to be the examiner this year?
If something happened to him, what would happen to his new wife?
What about his parents?
"Lord Liu, if there is no other way, we can only suspend the imperial examination and ask for forgiveness from His Majesty.”
"We will only sacrifice ourselves and not implicate our families.”
"This is probably the best solution at the moment.”
Yang Qianzhi said with the determination to die.
Liu Sanwu hesitated.
Could it be that he really had to choose one of these two methods?
"Why didn't we change those questions on the spot?”
Tidas suddenly suggested.
Everyone was stunned.
The queen was very happy.
"Changing the exam questions?"
"Why didn't I think of this idea!”
"Lord Liu, this plan might work!”
The examiners were like drowning people who had seen their last life-saving straw.
Changing the questions.
It prevented the examinees from cheating.
It would not have a big impact on the imperial examination.
It was fair and just to every examinee.
Liu Sanwu's turbid eyes became clear and filled with joy.
He stroked his beard and thought,
"This might be a good idea.”
"But…"
"What question do you want to change it to?"
He looked at the young examiner in front of him who was wearing an official robe and had an imposing appearance. He remembered that this person was called Ye Xuan, but this person had never been eye-catching before, so he did not have much of a presence.
"There's less than an hour left before the exam questions are set.
In such a short period of time, he had to come up with questions that matched the Four Books and Five Classics, and the content could not be the same as the previous questions.
"In addition, the examination questions must avoid the name of His Majesty. We can't cut off the classics without authorization, and we can't ridicule current politics. If we're not careful when setting the questions, we'll definitely be punished by His Majesty.”
"Although we have the Grand Scholar and the Imperial Academy Scholar, we can't come up with good questions in such a short period of time.”
The moment Liu Sanwu said this, everyone immediately revealed a worried expression.
In such a short period of time, even the Grand Scholar and the Imperial Academy Scholar could not come up with good questions, let alone them.
"I can set the exam questions."
Tidas volunteered for the reward.
Liu Sanwu and the others revealed looks of disbelief.
"It's not easy to set the test questions. We're not confident. You…"
"Bring me a pen washi."
Tidas said to the person beside him.
After a while, he got a pen and paper.
He started to write, his brush creating a gust of wind. His writing speed was extremely fast, and he looked as if he had a well-thought-out plan.
Everyone was infected by him.
A glimmer of hope rose in his heart.
What if Tidas could really come up with a good question?
Tidas thought as he wrote, feeling extremely glad in his heart.
"Fortunately, I was well-read in my previous life and read all kinds of messy posts. I even read the imperial examination questions of the Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, I really wouldn't have been able to write them.”
Several questions were written by Tidas.
"Done!"
After the last stroke, Tidas put away the pen and put it down. He picked up the paper and blew at the ink that had not yet dried. He thought to himself,'I've already worked so hard. I should be able to get this system reward, right?'
Tidas handed the test questions to Liu Sanwu and the other examiners.
Liu Sanwu took the test questions impatiently with trembling hands and read them carefully.
The other examiners went up to take a look.
"Good!"
"This question is good!"
"I didn't expect Lord Ye to have such knowledge and ability. I admit defeat!”
"Now that we have the new test questions, we don't have to bear the responsibility of leaking the test questions. We only have to bear the responsibility of changing the test questions without authorization.”
Liu Sanwu looked at Tidas with admiration.
He didn't expect this person to amaze everyone with a single brilliant feat.
With this new question.
Perhaps he could survive this calamity.
