The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 545
Why do you want to be an official?
This question is easy to answer. Some people want to get promoted and get rich, some people plead for the people, and some people just want to enjoy power.

But obviously, these thoughts cannot be said.

The current situation is equivalent to the "palace examination" of the imperial court, and they must come up with "beautiful" answers as soon as possible.

At this time, no one will talk about humility.

I saw Yu Chengyao was the first to go out, and after saluting, he replied: "Reporting to Your Highness, students enter official positions not to be officials, but to follow His Highness and clear up the troubled times!"

These words are undoubtedly suspected of flattery, but they are qualified answers, showing their allegiance to Zhao Yanxun.

After only saying this sentence, Yu Chengyao returned to the train. Obviously he felt that this sentence was enough, besides, it was superfluous.

And his words also pointed out the direction for the rest of the people to answer the question, so the next few people spoke in this direction.

Some praised Zhao Yanxun's holiness, and they were inspired to serve because they were inspired; some praised Zhao Yanxun's love for the people, and they were willing to follow;

Although there are various sayings, the core remains the same. They all serve as officials for their loyalty to Zhao Yanxun.

This kind of answer, I thought it was good when I heard it for the first time, but I felt tired after listening to it too much, but Zhao Yanxun didn't show it.

In fact, for feudal bureaucrats, if they are really loyal to the monarch, they are already qualified.

At this moment, Huang Yuanqing was the only one who hadn't answered yet.

Not only Liu Qingshan was a little worried, even Zhou Chengping frowned.

At this moment, he couldn't help but wonder if Huang Yuanqing was frightened by the "palace examination" battle?
If that were the case, Zhou Chengping would also be disappointed, but at this moment he is still full of expectations for him.

After everyone finished speaking, Huang Yuanqing remained silent, and even Yu Chengyao couldn't stand it anymore.

But at this time, Yu Chengyao didn't dare to say a word to remind him, he just looked at Huang Yuanqing anxiously with an expression on his face.

Only Zhao Yanxun, who has a strong perception ability, can perceive that Huang Yuanqing is making a seemingly difficult choice under his calm expression, which can be inferred from the micro-expression.

Things are interesting... Zhao Yanxun couldn't help thinking.

Finally, Huang Yuanqing made up his mind, saluted and said, "Your Highness, a student is an official, just to seek justice!"

Although these words cannot be said to be earth-shattering, their style is completely different from the previous few people.

Zhao Yanxun didn't comment, but asked: "Justice? What kind of justice?"

Huang Yuanqing replied: "Seek justice for the people under the rule of the palace!"

"You mean... there are injustices in the palace?" Zhao Yanxun's tone became colder.

At this moment, everyone in the hall felt the pressure, and this was just Zhao Yanxun's test of Huang Yuanqing.

He wants to see whether Huang Yuanqing's "remarks" are sensational, or he is sincerely doing justice for the common people.

"The territory under the jurisdiction of the Royal Palace is vast, there are many officials who are good and bad, and the people are weak, so it is inevitable that injustice will happen..."

Hearing these words, Liu Qingshan's eyes were full of worry, he really did not expect Huang Yuanqing to be so courageous.

Zhou Chengping, who was the only one on the side, put his heart back on his stomach at this moment, secretly thinking that he saw the right person.

Zhou Chengping was not worried about Huang Yuanqing's safety, because he was very clear about Zhao Yanxun's character, such a wise king and holy lord would not have the same knowledge as Huang Yuanqing.

Seeing that Huang Yuanqing wanted to continue talking, Yu Chengyao couldn't help reminding: "Yuanqing, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Yu Chengyao is taking a great risk to stop Huang Yuanqing at this time, and it is really interesting for him to be friends.

On the throne, Zhao Yanxun didn't care about these things, he picked up his teacup and said, "Let him talk!"

Huang Yuanqing was not greatly affected. The so-called selfless person is fearless, and what he said was sincere.

"His Royal Highness respects the sky and loves the people, and never allows injustice in the world. The students are willing to help the poor and help the poor, so that His Highness can be holy!"

After saying this, Huang Yuanqing knelt on the ground directly, kowtowed his head on the floor and couldn't get up, which was a remonstrance.

At this moment, there was a dead silence in the hall.

Even Zhou Chengping was a little moved at this moment, secretly thinking that this young man is too courageous.

Zhou Chengping was ready, if Zhao Yanxun wanted to reprimand Huang Yuanqing, he would have to help explain a few words.

Cheng Wenguang on the side, seeing Huang Yuanqing like this, instinctively felt uncomfortable. What he hated most was Qingliu.

Meanwhile, Yu Chengyao and the others on the side, their eyes were full of panic at the moment, and Huang Yuanqing's actions frightened them.

The so-called king's heart is like the sea, Zhao Yanxun has not expressed his position at the moment, which has brought great psychological pressure to these students who have not yet entered the official position.

Yu Chengyao was still worried about Huang Yuanqing, while the rest of the people had already scolded him in their hearts, scolding him for being ignorant of current affairs and harming others and themselves.

In fact, during this period of silence, Zhao Yanxun was still testing Huang Yuanqing.

If this person is not unconventional and grandstanding, then he is a good seedling worth cultivating, and it is not impossible for him to be ranked in the palace in the future.

Officials are divided into turbid and clear streams, the former is like a crucian carp crossing a river, and the real clear stream officials, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are fishing for sand from the sea.

When Huang Yuanqing's forehead was covered with fine sweat, Zhao Yanxun finally said: "Okay...Okay!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Yanxun got up from the throne, then walked down the imperial steps and said: "Generation of talented people come from every generation..."

Speaking of this, Zhao Yanxun glanced at Zhou Chengping and said: "Zhou Qing, this person's temperament is somewhat similar to yours!"

Just listen to Zhou Chengping said: "His Royal Highness, although a talented person is born, he also needs to know the master, otherwise the jewel will be dusty and he will not be born at the right time!"

When Zhou Chengping spoke, Zhao Yanxun had already walked in front of Huang Yuanqing.

Looking at the soap boots in front of him, Huang Yuanqing's heart gradually became peaceful.

"Get up!"

After saying these three words, Zhao Yanxun turned and returned to the throne, and Huang Yuanqing also got up from the ground.

After taking his seat, Zhao Yanxun asked again: "If you are granted official positions, how will you govern?"

At this time, the second question was raised, and it was obvious that Huang Yuanqing had passed the test.

The second question is no different from the second round of competition for the students. This question has to be practical, and it is not enough to just shout slogans.

"There is no need for a long speech, no more than one hundred words per person!"

Everyone immediately organized their words, and Yu Chengyao was still the fastest responder.

"Reporting to Your Highness, if a student is an official, he should strictly abide by the law, set an example, and supervise the officials and people under his rule to strictly abide by the king's law!"

"At the same time, encourage production and land reclamation, and suppress thieves who steal, rape, play tricks, disturb public order and stir people's hearts!"

Yu Chengyao's answer was still full marks in Zhao Yanxun's opinion, he already believed in his heart that this person could be a capable minister.

Immediately afterwards, Huang Yuanqing stood out of the train and said: "Reporting to Your Highness, if a student is an official, he should go deep into the people, investigate their urgency, solve their difficulties, let the people know His Highness's grace, and learn His Highness's virtuous government..."

"So the people are united as one, and they are all doing their best to help His Highness achieve a great cause!"

It can be said that Huang Yuanqing not only had a clear mind, but also did not forget to flatter Zhao Yanxun.

After Huang Yuanqing finished speaking, other students answered one after another, but they could only say that they passed the test.
