Crown Prince Yan Beichen's ears were pointed and slightly red.
He already knew about this, so don't say it so easily; it's a little embarrassing.
Shen Changyuan: Good, good, good!
My darling daughter is awesome!!!
Prince An: Look at my nephew, so worthless! What a disappointment!
Emperor Jingyuan glanced at his precious crown prince, his lips twitching. "Worthy of nothing!"
Crown Prince Yan Beichen turned around and looked at Shen Mingzhu. He saw her eating pastries with her head down and crumbs still stuck to the corners of her mouth. He couldn't help but smile. His little crown princess was so cute.
Guagua, do you even need to tell me? I already know!
If the Crown Prince dares to take a concubine, I'll deal with him immediately! Hmph! I won't share a toothbrush with a man!
Yes, yes, yes, host, you are the most powerful and domineering! You are skilled at managing your husband, absolutely top-notch! You are the number one female official of the Great Yan Dynasty and the only model Crown Princess of the Great Yan Dynasty!
Snort! ! !
Shen Mingzhu gave a haughty snort, which, when it reached the ears of the civil and military officials, was a signal.
This is a signal that Crown Prince Yan Beichen is not allowed to take concubines.
A signal that you want to be with someone for life!
Crown Prince Yan Beichen, with a faint smile playing on his lips, calmly surveyed the assembled civil and military officials.
All the officials: Why are you looking at us? It was your Crown Princess who said you must uphold male virtues!
Look how useless we are!
We know nothing.
Prince An: Nephew, you should take a look at the role of the henpecked husband!
Hahaha...
Crown Prince Yan Beichen: ...
Uncle An, you are truly my dear uncle.
Crown Prince Yan Beichen: The Crown Prince's Palace plans to add another clause: Arise, Crown Prince who refuses to be a "slave"! A true man born between heaven and earth, how can he be a wife slave!
Emperor Jingyuan: Well done, my precious Crown Prince!
Your father is proud of you!
My crown prince will always be the best!
Prince An: Pshaw, nobody would believe that!
Crown Prince Yan Beichen: Uncle An, you can shut up now!
Prince An: You brat, how dare you talk to your uncle like that? I am your own uncle. How dare you be so disrespectful!
Emperor Jingyuan: Prince An, shut up!
Prince An: Your Majesty, you are being biased.
My beloved brother is missing!
Brother, where did you go?
Emperor Jingyuan: ...
Shen Mingzhu took a sip of hot tea, glanced around, and then took out a bag of potato chips and started eating.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Emperor Jingyuan glanced at the main hall below, knowing that everyone would probably have to get up early to go up the mountain tomorrow, and there was nothing important, so he asked directly,
"My esteemed subjects, is there anything else you wish to report?"
If not, he would prepare to leave court.
The Minister of Personnel, Gu Ci, stepped forward and spoke directly.
"Your Majesty, the additional autumn imperial examinations are approaching. We request Your Majesty to appoint the chief and deputy chief officials."
The chief examiner and deputy chief examiner of the autumn examination were usually the ministers of the six ministries. After the examination was accepted, two deputy examiners were selected, and finally, the chief examiner and deputy chief examiner selected the officials to supervise the examination.
Of course, as is customary, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the students selected from under the command of the chief and deputy chief officers each year generally belong to their faction.
Therefore, choosing the chief and deputy chief officers is very important.
[Autumn imperial examination?]
Shen Mingzhu immediately became very interested.
After all, her older brother is also going to get involved.
The autumn imperial examination consists of three sessions, each lasting three days, and is held once every three years. This year's session is an additional special examination held by Emperor Jingyuan, which is a great opportunity for the students of the Great Yan.
After all, many corrupt officials have been purged from the court recently, creating many vacant positions, which presents an opportunity for everyone.
Guagua, I remember there were cheaters in this year's autumn imperial examinations! I really want to see with my own eyes how the candidates cheated!
Emperor Jingyuan: ? ? ? ?
The entire court: ...
Shen Changyuan: What's so interesting about this!
Those who cheat are parasites on the Great Yan Dynasty. Once discovered, they will be stripped of their academic titles and never be employed again!
My dear daughter, watching everything will only harm you!
Prince An: How dare they!
Who is so bold as to cheat in the autumn examination?
Hehe~~~ "I want to see it, too.
He looked directly at Emperor Jingyuan at the head of the table, his eyes practically screaming: "Brother, brother, I want to see! I want to see!!!"
Those who can come to Shengjing to participate in the imperial examinations are all already on their way to officialdom. It is common knowledge that their scholarship is beyond question, and their methods of cheating must be very unique. I really want to see it with my own eyes!
Shen Mingzhu was very interested, and her mind was also very active.
Guagua, i want to be a proctor, an examiner, and catch the biggest cheating scandal!
Guagua, I'm so excited!
Emperor Jingyuan: What's there to look forward to!
I wish there were no more cheating in the world!
These are all talented individuals from the Great Yan Dynasty!
He was heartbroken!
The future pillars of the Great Yan have been corrupted by termites; their inner workings are rotten. How can we not feel heartbroken?
The general's body trembled: "Your humble servant wishes to be the examiner!"
The court officials said: "You're a military officer, a roughneck. What kind of examiner are you? Can you even understand what's going on?"
Just stay put!
All the civil officials: Your Majesty, look at your humble servant! Your humble servant is the best at being an examination proctor!
The entire court of military officers: Civil officials are the most despicable! Who do they think they are!
Believe it or not, I'll knock you down with one punch!
Ministers of the Six Ministries: Your Majesty, I am qualified to serve as the chief examiner for this autumn imperial examination!
Me! Me! Me!
Emperor Jingyuan: How despicable! I also wish to be the chief examiner for this autumn imperial examination.
It's a pity, I can't go!
The entire court: Your Majesty, you can not go!
All he ever thinks about are good things!
Just stay in the Imperial Study and review the memorials.
No matter how much the emperor wanted to, he could only preside over the palace examination and appoint the top scholar and the third-ranked scholar.
Second place: What did I do to deserve this?!
Am I not worthy of being here?
Crown Prince Yan Beichen: Father, look at your precious son!
I wish to be the chief examiner for this autumn imperial examination.
Father, am I still your most beloved son?
Emperor Jingyuan: ...
Crown Prince Yan Beichen: Answer me!!!
Emperor Jingyuan: ...This son is unacceptable!!!
Empress Lin: What nonsense are you spouting!
I think i shouldn't keep you either!
Emperor Jingyuan: ...
Finally, Emperor Jingyuan gave Crown Prince Yan Beichen a deep look and spoke.
"Crown Prince."
"Your subject is here."
The entire court: As expected!
Prince An: Don't forget your younger brother.
Emperor Jingyuan looked at the assembled ministers and then made the announcement directly.
I hereby appoint you as the chief examiner for this autumn imperial examination. I hope you will do your utmost to select outstanding talents for our Great Yan."
"Your subject obeys the decree."
Guagua, since the Crown Prince is the chief examiner for the autumn imperial examinations, I should at least be the deputy chief examiner. A mix of men and women makes the work easier, and besides, I'll be personally catching any cheating candidates!
Host, don't worry. Since you're so eager to ask, the old emperor will definitely see it.
Emperor Jingyuan: I am still young!
Prince An: I... I... Your Majesty, don't forget me!
Seeing that Prince An almost ran to the dragon throne, he closed his eyes.
"Prince An, Minister Gu."
"Your younger brother is here."
"Your subject is present."
"With the autumn imperial examinations approaching, I hereby appoint you two as deputy chief examiners. I hope you will assist the Crown Prince in ensuring the success of this year's examinations."
Such an excellent minister as me. What will he do when he fails to discover the cheating scholars during the autumn examinations?
Yes, host, we're not going to care anymore! We're not worried about food anyway. We'll just laze around!
Shen Changyuan glanced at Emperor Jingyuan at the head of the table, wiped the sweat from his brow, and thought, "My precious daughter is leaking air again!"
His cotton-padded coat was letting in the wind, and he couldn't stand it anymore!.
