Chapter 492 Little Fox and Old Fox
Chapter 492 The Little Fox and the Old Fox
The scene instantly got out of control and became chaotic. Everyone was talking and talking directly to Wang Kang.
Some people say that he is a notorious prodigal son without any literary qualities. How can he preside over the imperial examination?
It is said that he is only in his weak years. Everyone present is several rounds older than him. It is too unqualified.
Taking this opportunity, Huang Yu once again brought up the story about Lord Lian who was killed in Panlongzhu because of Wang Kang's collision when hundreds of officials were admonishing him.
Accusations came one after another. They were all important officials and well-educated people. How could they obey Wang Kang's instructions?
In short, it is just a sentence, not qualified and not worthy!
Even under the leadership of Hanlin scholar Tang Bu, they all clamored to retreat and leave alone.
This man has an old-fashioned face, full of seriousness, and his temperament is very similar to that of his grandfather Su Dingfang. He looks like a rotten scholar at first glance, and he simply cannot accept Wang Kang's participation.
Not to mention being hosted by him!
The scene was extremely chaotic for a moment,
Many people got up to leave,
"Everyone, everyone,"
Fang Xiaolian's face changed drastically. He didn't expect it to be like this.
"Scholar Tang, your Majesty's appointment of Wang Kang as chief officer does have some... But he does have some talents. The things he mentioned..."
"I have been studying for half a year, how can I live under such a noble man? The imperial examination is a major event for a country, how can it be a trivial matter, I will not accompany you!"
"right!"
"Master Fang, this is really unreasonable. I still need to report it to Your Majesty for long-term consideration!"
There were bursts of noise,
Wang Kang looked at this scene with cold eyes. He had actually expected it beforehand, so his previous attitude was also very low.
Seek common ground while reserving differences and get this thing done.
But I didn't expect that the resistance would be so great, and there would be so many accusations, and people would immediately give up!
"Xueshi Fang, Master Yan, Master Ji,"
"I know you are optimistic about this guy, but... forget it, I'd better go."
"It's a waste of time to go,"
Yan Liqun consoled him: "Everyone, please don't be impulsive. The imperial examination is about to take place and time is already very tight. If we continue to make such a fuss, isn't it a joke?"
"It's a joke that a prodigal son presides over the imperial examination,"
Hearing this, Wang Kang's face darkened to the extreme. He wanted to solve the problem, but now it seems that it is impossible.
"Snapped!"
Thinking of this, Wang Kang suddenly slammed the table, and the noise stopped immediately, attracting everyone's attention!
Wang Kang said coldly: "Whoever wants to leave, hurry up and leave quickly!"
"you……"
Tang Bu looked at Fang Xiaolian, "Did you hear this, Master Fang? Is this the person you found? You don't even understand the most basic respect?"
"respect?"
Wang Kang stood up and said directly: "Respect is mutual. If you don't respect me, why should I respect you?"
"Leave if you want, I will never keep you!"
"Now I am in charge of the imperial examination. I am the chief official. Even if all of you leave, let's see if I can get this imperial examination done!"
Wang Kang looked at everyone and continued: "To be honest, I really don't want you old and rotten scholars!"
"you you……"
"What nonsense!"
Yan Liqun shouted directly: "Wang Kang, what are you talking about?"
"Master Yan, you have seen that I have already said it, what else do you want from me?"
Wang Kang said directly with an indifferent attitude: "If you want to leave now, hurry up. If you have any dissatisfaction with me, you can go to His Majesty."
"Without you, I will still handle this matter!"
After saying this, Wang Kang sat down again.
For a moment, there was silence in Nuo Da's house. Everyone looked at Wang Kang in horror.
He could actually say such words to a group of people with much higher rank than him.
without the slightest fear,
He even said such harsh words, which was beyond everyone's expectation.
Either he really doesn’t understand, or a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers!
"You heard it, Bachelor Fang!"
After Tang Bu was surprised, he threw up his sleeves and walked out of the door.
"Hey, what's going on? I heard a commotion from afar,"
At this moment, a surprised voice came in, and then a person walked in,
This person is wearing an official uniform, with fair complexion, a slightly protruding belly, and a slightly stout body. He appears to be in his forties, and he has both official authority and an air of nobility that is difficult to conceal.
Seeing this person appear, Wang Kang's eyes narrowed. Although it was his first time seeing him, he still recognized him at a glance.
He is none other than Shen Yuanchong, the Marquis of Huaiyin.
The position in the court, the third grade, is to participate in political affairs.
He is also the supervisor in this imperial examination matter!
Shen Yuanchong asked: "I just finished my official duties and came a little late, but who can tell me what happened? Why is it so noisy?"
"That's it, Master Shen..."
One person explained it to him. After hearing it, Shen Yuanchong smiled and said, "What did I think it was? It turns out it is this."
"My lords, please be patient. Since your Majesty has made such an appointment, he naturally has deep considerations."
"Don't you still believe in Your Majesty?"
Shen Yuanchong surprisingly had no objection, but still tried to persuade him with good words.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Fang Xiaolian, Ji Ning, and Yan Liqun also acted softly and hard. The four of them were of high rank and temporarily controlled the situation.
"The imperial examination is a major event for a country. We should share your worries for His Majesty and work hard to govern, regardless of personal gains and losses!"
Shen Yuanchong said again: "We should support His Majesty's appointment, let alone abandon it. What will happen?"
"Since Wang Kang is now the chief official of the imperial examination, regardless of his previous status, he is the chief official here!"
Shen Yuanchong looked at Wang Kang as he spoke, "Are you right... Mr. Wang?"
Lord Wang!
Shen Yuanchong, as the Marquis of Huaiyin, with an official position of the third rank, actually addressed Wang Kang like this in front of so many people.
Now it seems that it is more like leading by example!
"The Marquis of Huaiyin is worthy of being an important minister in the court and the backbone of the Zhao Kingdom."
Wang Kang sighed: "I remember Lan Yulin, the envoy of the Yue Kingdom, once said that the Marquis of Huaiyin has always had principles in the face of major events."
"The more you do things to vent your anger for the people, now you are the same and you are a true role model!"
Hearing this, Shen Yuanchong's mouth twitched. How could he not hear the ridicule in it?
The Yue Dynasty incident was framed by Wang Kang and suffered a big setback. More importantly, the good relationship he had always established with the Yue Kingdom was put into crisis...
With just one glance, he knew that this boy was definitely not the rich young master or prodigal son that was widely rumored in the outside world!
He is a powerful person,
But this time, you are destined to die...
Shen Yuanchong's thoughts flashed through his mind and he said with a smile: "I have heard of your name a long time ago. When I saw you today, you are indeed extraordinary. I believe that under your leadership, you will be able to change the atmosphere of the imperial examination..."
Wang Kang said with a smile: "Master Shen still needs to give some advice."
"It's easy to talk,"
When the two of them talked, they both had their own agendas. They both knew each other's feelings, but they remained silent.
An old fox, a little fox,
They all have good acting skills,
The more Shen Yuanchong behaves like this, the more Wang Kang becomes wary. However, in the eyes of outsiders,
The dignified Marquis Huaiyin can put down his arrogance and set an example for others. Why do you and others have a stalemate?
