Chapter 483 Let me give advice

Chapter 483: Want me to give my opinion?

Although this old man is old, he is still full of energy and has a kind of Confucianism about him, which makes Wang Kang feel somewhat similar to his grandfather...

At first glance, he looks like an old scholar.

But at this moment, he suddenly shouted and cursed, which made Wang Kang look confused.

What does this mean? I don’t know you. Are you sick?

This made some people in the room focus on Wang Kang.

Although some of them have never seen it, they have heard of Wang Kang’s reputation.

A sneer flashed in Cao Shangzheng's eyes, as if he had expected this.

Yan Liqun hesitated for a moment, and then he suddenly realized that something was wrong. He knew what the reason was...

"Master Lian studied all his life and served as an official for half a year. He was humiliated by you, a bastard, and he bumped into a dragon pillar and died. Now his bones are not cold..."

The old man pointed at Wang Kang and said angrily: "But you are still leisurely and contented. If you don't see me, you don't even go to express your condolences."

"You're such a bastard!"

Wang Kang was even more surprised after hearing these words, and subconsciously asked: "Who is Mr. Lian?"

"you you……"

"Master Huang, don't be angry. This kid's heart is as stubborn as stone. How can he understand this?"

Next to the old man, a person sat down with him.

At this time, Tao Ran whispered in Wang Kang's ear: "Master Lian is the one who died when he hit the dragon pillar that day. He was once a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy..."

"This is Huang Yu, a bachelor's degree student."

After hearing this, Wang Kangcai suddenly realized that this was where the grudges came from.

No wonder Huang Yu yelled and cursed. Wang Kang shook his head and said, "Master Lian wanted to hit him, but I didn't force him. What do I do?"

Huang Yu looked at Wang Kang in disbelief, "You...you can actually say such a thing?"

He turned to Yan Liqun and asked: "Master Yan, do you still stay in the Ministry of Rites for such a person?"

It’s not me who wants to stay, it’s your Majesty who wants to stay.

Yan Liqun sighed inwardly, but how could he say this?

He had no choice but to admonish: "This matter has passed. Your Majesty has reached a conclusion. He is dead. I hope Mr. Huang can take it easy!"

"Be relieved, how can I be relieved!"

"If you keep such a scoundrel as an official in the court and bring trouble to the court, where is the law?"

Listening to Zuo's words one after another, Wang Kang was quite impatient.

Seeing this, Yan Liqun was so busy that he said: "Wang Kang's situation is quite special. He is personally appointed by His Majesty, and I..."

He had to say this, but he knew how powerful Wang Kang was. If he really started to argue, he might really piss Huang Yu to death.

This hint is already obvious. Wang Kang is your Majesty's man and I have no control over it.

In fact, how could anyone present not know that Emperor Zhao did not mention a single word of his previous remonstrance, which was so loud and powerful, and treated it coldly.

This is enough to explain everything,

Huang Yu hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and sighed, "Your Majesty, all kinds of saints, how come..."

"Master Huang, we are gathering today to discuss the imperial examination questions. Now that everyone is here, let's get started."

Yan Liqun said and winked at Wang Kang, telling him not to talk nonsense.

Seeing this, Wang Kang shook his head and endured it. After all, Master Yan usually takes good care of himself...

"Then let's get back to business,"

Yan Liqun calmed down and said, "The spring exams held by various states have long ended, and the provincial exams are about to begin."

"The provincial examination is hosted by our Ministry of Rites in collaboration with the Hanlin Academy. Now we have to finalize the content of the scientific examination as soon as possible and then issue the test questions,"

"I have summoned you all here today to discuss matters. There are bachelors from the Hanlin Academy, governors who participate in politics, and doctors from various departments in our Ministry of Rites. We are all here to brainstorm ideas."

After Yan Liqun finished speaking, another person said: "We have reported some regulations before, but His Majesty is dissatisfied and does not know what the holy intention is?"

"The imperial examination is an important way to select officials, and it should be strict. However, the current imperial examination system is not good, the aristocracy is serious, and the phenomenon of favoritism and fraud is serious. I think we should start to control this aspect,"

"I agree with Mr. Cai. As for the content of the scientific examination, let's do it as usual. After all, we have been studying for many years."

People started to discuss, but Wang Kang kept listening and did not speak.

Today, the scientific examinations in Zhao State are roughly divided into sān jí, state examinations, provincial examinations, and imperial examinations.

However, the time is slightly different from the previous life. The state examination is usually held in the spring. Of course, before that, there are also the provincial examinations, etc.

Those who have been selected through the state examination are called Juren, like Dong Qian, they are called Juren.

At the higher level, there is the provincial examination presided over by the Ministry of Rites, also called the Jinshi examination.

The Jinshi examination is very difficult, and the test is complex, focusing on scriptures, ink meanings, and poems.

But in Wang Kang's view, this form of scientific examination has great disadvantages and is of little practical significance. Now that Emperor Zhao has discovered it, he has to implement the reform.

But there is no specific direction, which leads to the current situation.

Although he was aware of it, he was too lazy to speak. Firstly, it was because he was speaking lightly, and secondly, he did not want to wade into this muddy water.

"So we have tentatively decided that the content of the scientific examination will still include pasting scriptures, ink meanings, poems, etc. before the extension of study. We will formulate strict measures on the scientific examination rules..."

Han Qinhuan, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, concluded: "The specific measures can be recorded anonymously to avoid malpractice for personal gain. If you have any other opinions, you can raise them again."

Cao Shangzheng echoed: "There is no problem with the content. I have been practicing for many years."

At this time, Tao Ran said cautiously: "His Majesty once said that we should pay attention to practicality. Are you gentlemen considering it?"

Hearing this, Cao Shangzheng seemed to have thought of something and said: "Wang Kang, you are also the chief officer of one of the four departments of my Ministry of Rites. The other three doctors have all expressed their opinions. What about you?"

The priest and doctor agreed: "Yes, Mr. Wang should also mention a few words."

However, when he spoke, his eyes were full of disdain. It was obvious that this person was on Cao Shangzheng's side.

"We still don't know whether he can understand what we just said. Why are you still raising opinions?"

"It is said that he was once a notorious prodigal. Your Majesty Tien appointed him as an official, but he was ungrateful and despised the court's laws."

"I don't know how to write, but I still talk about the imperial examination. What a joke!"

Cao Shangzheng's suggestion changed the original topic, and everyone laughed and laughed.

All those who can be included in this list are academics. After some hard work and promotion,

And Wang Kang is so old, sitting here with them, this makes many people feel unbalanced, and they have deep insights into him.

This begins,

"It seems that I am confused," Cao Shangzheng pretended to be stunned.

"Yes, I asked him what he was doing. Although he is an official, what he is best at is living in poverty, and he only focuses on studying women."

"Ha ha!"

This sentence made people couldn't help but laugh. Recently, Wang Kang has gained a reputation as a friend of women. Cao Shangzheng used this to mock,

Hearing this, Wang Kang couldn't bear it anymore. His eyes fell on Cao Shangzheng and said directly: "Since Mr. Cao asked me to make some suggestions, I will say it."

"Oh? Would you like to hear the details?" Cao Shangzheng looked like he was watching a joke.
