Chapter 27

In the same era, in the academy.

Several people dressed as scholars gathered together and looked at the light curtain in front of them.

"As soon as this question came up, it reminded me of a sentence that the emperor once said."

"What did you say? You still know what the emperor said."

The scholar who spoke first shook his head and coughed lightly.

"Look what you can, if you have something to say, let it go."

Another scholar who had a good relationship with him couldn't stand it anymore, so he beat the scholar just now with his hand.

"What kind of hands do you use? A gentleman uses his mouth but not his hands."

"I gave you a face, didn't you, tell me quickly."

The two started laughing and cursing.

The first scholar straightened his clothes.

"The emperor once said that An Ren is for the people and is with the king. If the king does nothing, people will be happy, and if the king wants too much, people will suffer. Only then will the emperor restrain his emotions and desires, restrain himself and stand on his own."

"What you said, I remember, did say such a sentence."

"The emperor is for the country and the people, and I admire his attitude towards the people of Tang Dynasty."

The scholars nodded their heads in agreement. They really saw what Tang Taizong Li Shiming did, and no one refuted it. There is no doubt that Tang Taizong had done kindness and help to the people.

Then this question was extremely easy for Tang Taizong.

In the hall of the Tang Dynasty.

"Finally, the time has come for the emperor to choose without hesitation."

Fang Xuanling was still anxiously pacing back and forth in the hall, and when he saw the topic on the light curtain, he was slightly relieved.

"Master Fang, don't worry too much, the emperor has his own opinion."

Du Ruhui persuaded softly from the side.

"Aren't I in a hurry? In the first few questions, the emperor was hesitant and didn't know what to do. I really answered the sentence that the emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuchs are in a hurry."

"Master Fang is not a eunuch, please pay attention to your wording."

"Ahem, isn't this a metaphor? Mr. Du, do you understand the metaphor? It's a good thing you have read a book."

Fang Xuanling looked at Du Ruhui angrily.

"Okay, what's the point of the two of you arguing here, how can the emperor not know, you two have to talk about it."

Wei Zheng waved his hand and looked at the two of them speechlessly.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui also stopped talking, and Wei Zheng had already spoken, so what else could he say.

"Since he came to the throne, the emperor has accepted advice humbly, practiced strict economy, and persuaded farmers to teach farming and mulberry, so that the people can recuperate, and the country is peaceful and peaceful. How can such an emperor not always be ready to make sacrifices for the country and the people."

"Master Wei has the same opinion as mine. Your Majesty chose this question with his eyes closed."

Changsun Wuji echoed from the side.

Qin Shihuang Yingzheng looked at the exam questions with a frown, he was very entangled. He thought about whether the question he just asked was worthy of the title of "one emperor through the ages". He thought that he could be worthy of this title only if he could sacrifice for the country and the people at any time.

The point of his hesitation is that he has been pursuing one thing, seeking the elixir of immortality.

This concept conflicts with this question. He wants to live forever, not only to enjoy the privileged life enjoyed by emperors for a longer period of time, but also with strong political ideals and demands carried by family power.

So he wants to be a good emperor and be praised by all the people, but he wants to live forever. If he can make sacrifices for the country and the people at all times, he asks himself that he can't do it.

He is very tangled, but the tangled balance has long been biased towards immortality.

Pick up the pen and stop half a minute away from the paper, then slowly circle "No".

Qin Dynasty, in a small tavern.

"I bet Emperor Qin will definitely choose No."

"How do you know, you are the roundworm in Emperor Qin's stomach."

Two big men with the appearance of warriors sat in the corner of the hall, eating peanuts and drinking wine at the same time.

"Because he is afraid of death, he can sacrifice for the country and the people, unless the sun comes out in the west."

"Shh, keep your voice down, if someone with a heart can hear you, can you still sit here and drink?"

The big man in light-colored clothes hastily covered the mouth of the big man who just spoke, and then made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Qin Dynasty Imperial Palace.

Lu Buwei looked serious.

"The emperor's question is not easy to choose. With the pursuit in his heart, it is impossible to choose sacrifice. I hope the emperor can see clearly in this exam."

A Taoist temple in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Zhang Sanfeng and his great apprentice Song Yuanqiao were silently watching what happened in the light curtain.

"Master, for this question, I think many emperors are unable to make sacrifices for the country and the people at any time."

"People are selfish, and they also have their own desires and greed. They want to sacrifice themselves to achieve others. It is actually very difficult."

"Then master, should people be for themselves or for others?"

Zhang Sanfeng suddenly changed from his usual fairy-tale appearance, and gave his eldest apprentice a sideways look.

"Then tell me what you eat for."

"Alive."

"Then do you live for yourself or for others?"

"Of course for myself."

After speaking, Song Yuanqiao paused, and then solemnly saluted Zhang Sanfeng.

"Master, the apprentice has been taught."

Another era of the Song Dynasty, Liangshan.

"Brother, the dog emperor will definitely choose no to this question. He is so greedy for life and afraid of death, he will definitely choose no."

Li Kui looked at Song Huizong in the light curtain and became angry. Although Song Jiang said that he should not talk nonsense, he just couldn't help it.

Song Jiang looked at Li Kui's impatient temper, and sighed secretly. Although his younger brother was excellent in fighting, his temper was too unstable.

"Li Kui, I have told you several times, pay attention to your words, we have to be prudent, whoever makes a big deal like you is always bluffing like you."

After hearing this, Li Kui lost his temper.

"Brother, can you please stop saying this and that?"

"I'm tired of talking about you, watch it for me, be mature and steady."

Song Jiang gave Li Kui a white look.

In the examination room, Song Huizong still hesitated. He felt that he really couldn't make sacrifices, but he didn't want to admit this fact.

Because he, like Qin Shihuang, pursued immortality.So doesn't this concept conflict with the title?

But he really didn't want to admit that he couldn't do it, it was like setting up a chastity archway after being a cousin.

Although hesitant, Song Huizong still chose "yes" without self-knowledge, without any introspection.

Seeing this, Ye Chen secretly sighed in his heart, he was really on the way to death and never returned.

On the other side, A Dou, Huaidi of the Shu Han Dynasty, had a calm expression on his face. Since he came to the examination room and began to answer the questions, he has not been entangled in the slightest. Every choice has been carefully considered by him.

A Dou also knows what the outside world thinks of him. Until now, what happened outside has no disturbance in his heart, and he is not affected by any outside world at all. He only focuses on himself.

He has a very good mentality, and his thinking is different from that of many people. As long as it is something he thinks is right, then it is undoubtedly right.

A Dou just looked at the main idea of ​​the topic again, and after understanding, he asked his own heart.

"Yes" was circled with a pen.
