Wearing a secret agent with many tricks, the cold and proud prince flirts easily

Murong Hao didn't expect his son to ask this question, so he looked at his son lovingly.

"There are more people participating in the palace examination this year, a total of 480 people." Murong Hao said with a smile.

"480 people?" Several people present were surprised in unison.

"Well, this year is the first year of the New Deal scientific examination. Now that the imperial court and local governments have begun to implement pension and retirement policies, more officials will be needed across the country. In the past, the tributes who could participate in the imperial examination were the top three in each state and county. This year we need more There are relatively many officials, and the top eight tributes can go to Beijing to take part in the palace examination, so this year’s palace examination can be said to have the largest number of people in history.”

Murong Hao said seriously that he will recruit talents this year.

"Wow, 480 people are taking exams in one hall at the same time. How can my father see it through?" Murong Ze had never seen the exams with his own eyes, so he couldn't imagine what it would be like for so many people to take exams at the same time.

"Of course it is possible. The Tianqing Palace in the palace is very big. It can be filled with thousands of people. Today, not only the father will invigilate the exam, but also the cabinet members will invigilate the exam with the father. For example, the prime minister, the bachelor and others will invigilate the exam. I will invigilate the exam with my father."

Murong Hao saw that his son was interested in the palace examination, so he answered his questions seriously.

"So that's it." The little guy nodded as if thinking.

After breakfast, Murong Hao walked to Tianqing Palace, while Lin Yunxi took the two children to the Imperial College.

In the Tianqing Palace, all the tributes taking the exam had already sat down. Murong Hao only entered the examination room a quarter of an hour before he was ready to take the exam.

"The Emperor has arrived." After Zhao De's sharp voice sounded, all the tributes stood up and saluted.

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

"No courtesy." Murong Hao responded and sat in the top position.

The crowd of candidates below sat down and looked up at the emperor who was in the first place.

None of them have ever seen the Emperor, and they are truly lucky to be able to see him now.

"Everyone take the imperial examination well today and give your best." Murong Hao looked at the 480 candidates below, hoping that this year he could select people who could truly be used by the imperial court.

"Yes, Your Majesty." All the candidates below said in unison.

"Well, Prime Minister, please read out the exam details." Murong Hao looked at Feng Yi who was sitting beside him.

Feng Yi stood up, picked up a book, and began to read out the rules of today's examination room. After the reading was completed, the exam officially began.

Fang Zhiyou, a cabinet scholar, came to Murong Hao holding a large wooden box in both hands.

"Your Majesty, please take a look." Fang Zhiyou motioned to Murong Hao to check whether the seal on the wooden box was intact.

Murong Hao took a look and nodded.

"No problem, let's get started."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Fang Zhiyou tore off the seal on the wooden box and opened the wooden box.

Soon, servants came from all over to collect the test papers and distribute them to all the candidates.

The test papers were distributed and the time was just right.

The moment the tributes below opened the test papers, some breathed a sigh of relief, some felt confident, and some shook their heads.

Murong Hao, who was the first person above, saw the expressions of the ministers below when they received the test papers. He smiled in his heart. The questions for this palace examination were set by him personally. The questions were large and tricky. He wanted to see what he could do in this year's palace examination. He couldn't pick out his favorite talents.

His first question asked about how to balance the imperial court and local forces; the second question examined the candidates' views on the retirement and pension system; the third question asked about the reform direction of the national army; the fourth question asked how to develop diplomacy with other countries; and the fifth question asked what the court wanted How to select talents; Question 6: Is it acceptable for women’s medical clinics to be opened in China? Why?

There are six questions in total. The number of words for each question is written on the answer sheet. Each question requires no less than 800 words.

These questions can truly test whether a person is familiar with the country's system, rather than just reading, and whether he understands the country's recent development strategy.

People who often pay attention to national affairs will definitely think that today's test questions are not too difficult, but for those who only know poetry and poetry, today's questions are really difficult.

Murong Hao sat at the top of the table and observed every move of the candidates below. There was a picture comparing the names and seats of the candidates on the desk in front of him. He could clearly observe which student was the most calm and composed about the exam, and who was more capable. Check which candidate is at a loss when faced with such a question.

There were ten officials in charge of the exam today. The ten officials kept walking in the hall, inspecting everyone's movements.

Murong Hao sat at the top of the desk for an hour. He got up, walked down from the top of the desk, and inspected the examination situation of the candidates in the examination room with the officials.

He walked around in a small circle and found that the level of the candidates varied greatly. Some wrote with great energy and eloquently wrote long answers, while some candidates were still thinking hard after an hour passed, as if they wanted to clear their minds. All the ink was squeezed out, and not a single word was written.

Murong Hao continued to inspect, and he found a man with handsome features and a dignified appearance sitting in the center of the hall. He was dressed in white brocade and was writing non-stop with a brush in his hand. It seemed that these topics were not difficult for him.

Murong Hao walked up to the man in white and looked at his handwriting. His handwriting was just like the person's hand, and the spring breeze in his writing made him look like a gentle scholar.

Murong Hao took a look at the first question he answered. His thinking was clear and organized, and he answered it well.

He wanted to see his name, but he couldn't see it. The rule of this exam was that all candidates could write their names on the test paper after they finished the exam. This was done to prevent the invigilator from recognizing these names while inspecting the exam room. Candidates, except of course the emperor, whose names and seating plans are on the emperor's desk.

Murong Hao looked around slowly and found that not many people could answer the first question to the level of the man in white.

He wanted to know who the man in white was. Judging from the fabric of his clothes, which was made of the finest Yun brocade, he should have come from a wealthy official family or a descendant of an aristocratic family.

He returned to the top, opened the name picture, and saw the name of the young man in white, Bai Siheng, a good name.

Murong Hao proctored the exam with the officials in the main hall for four hours. During this period, like the candidates, he only drank some water and did not eat lunch.

After the palace examination was finally over, the official responsible for managing the examination papers collected all the candidates' examination papers, put them into wooden boxes, sealed them again, and then several imperial guards escorted the wooden boxes to the imperial study room for storage.

Tonight, the imperial study room was brightly lit. Not only were the Imperial Guards surrounded, but many of Murong Hao's secret guards were also surrounding them, just to protect the test papers for today's candidates.

Starting tomorrow, eight highly respected first- and second-grade civil servants from China and the DPRK will form a group of ministers to review the papers.

The names of all the test papers will be sealed under the supervision of Murong Hao, and then eight officials will grade each test paper. Finally, Grand Scholar Fang Zhiyou will summarize the scores and submit the list of candidates ranked 100 to the emperor.
