Chapter 90
Xiao Yiran no longer cared about what happened to those spies, he knew what happened.
On the second day of the palace examination, ten people entered the list of the palace examination in the liberal arts examination. Although the answers to the examination papers were various, Xiao Yiran told Yin Tianqi that priority would be given to those who handed in blank papers.
As for the martial arts exam, it was another situation.
Distributing the palace examination papers one by one to ten candidates who were kneeling on the ground, Xiao Yiran sat under the dragon chair boredly, propping his chin with one hand and half-opening his eyelids to look at the group of people sitting below. Here, they just wait until they finish the liberal arts exam before starting.
"This king tells you something, His Majesty is 24 years old this year, he is not an old pedant, understand?"
Those who had already started to write those boasting words were taken aback when they heard what he said, and quickly removed the piece of paper on it. Xiao Yiran raised his eyebrows as he watched their actions.
"Hey, if I hadn't reminded you, I'm afraid there won't be a so-called number one scholar this year."
Yin Tianqi raised his hand to call for Xiao Lizi, motioning him to bring the bird's nest on the dragon table to Xiao Yiran.
Xiao Yiran glanced at the bird's nest in front of him, turned his head to look at Yin Tianqi and raised his eyebrows, picked up the bird's nest and stirred it with a spoon, and said, "Your Majesty wants to use a bowl of bird's nest to plug Yiran's mouth? It's okay. It’s not something that can be bought so easily.”
The ten people in the liberal arts exam were distracted by Xiao Yiran's voice. Originally, they needed to calm down to answer the questions, but Xiao Yiran kept making noises, which made them unable to write quietly.
"I'll tell you one more thing, if you can't even overcome this little noise, then you should pack up and go home now. The court can't afford to hire a bunch of old-fashioned civil servants who only know how to read dead books." Xiao Yiran put down his hands He snorted coldly, "If you don't have the confidence to write the answer within two hours, then leave as soon as possible."
Raising his hand and pointing at the closed door of the main hall, Xiao Yiran's eyes were cold, and he swept across the crowd with their heads bowed.
Sitting on the side who didn't even dare to make a sound waiting for the martial arts test and several ministers turned their heads to look at him in a daze, and then looked at the expressionless emperor sitting on the dragon chair, and put their heads straight .
All the ministers sighed in their hearts, the arrogant name of Prince Yu was completely confirmed.
The other lords who were present glanced at Xiao Yiran secretly, seeing that he was wondering what he was thinking with his eyes downcast. Suddenly, a smile slowly appeared on his face, and the lords trembled at the same time, and instantly Take your eyes back.
Xiao Yiran rolled his eyes, looked down at his slender fingers, then crossed his hands on his chin, put his elbows on the table, slowly raised his head, and grinned at the person present who was secretly looking at him from the corner of his eyes ,Laughed.
Why did Prince Jade smile as beautifully as a peony blossom, but it made them feel a chill down their backs.
What exactly is going on?
Only Yin Tianqi, who was sitting on the dragon chair, chuckled, turned his head to look at Xiao Yiran and shook his head, signaling him not to play too much.
How could he not know that the kids in his family were bored, so they tried to trick these people in a different way.
Xiao Yiran pouted at Yin Tianqi, but turned his head and didn't speak. He just moved his eyes from this candidate to that candidate, and then to the ministers, smacking his lips.
The old courtiers are no longer visible in the current court hall. A fire a while ago burned down the largest fireworks field in the imperial city, causing countless casualties, and several veteran courtiers were found inside.
The common people think that although there are many ministers who go to the place of fireworks to drink and have fun, they turn a blind eye and close their eyes as if they don't know when they are not exposed, but once they know, then gossip will arise.
Xiao Yiran is not kind, but he just thinks that the disaster will not hurt his family. Those old ministers who conspired to rebel have already been executed, so there is no need for his family to kill them all.
They found Ying Xiao in private and told him to show mercy, so it was only the death of a few leaders of the rebellion.
A caring person understands what he means no matter what, and restrains himself a lot.
Looking at the future, if they still want to make a comeback, then they will be dealt with at that time.
It was already a boring thing, and if he cleaned up all the fun things, it would be even more boring for him.
Yin Tianqi didn't express his opinion, but Yingxiao knew that if the master didn't speak, he agreed with the young master's words, and he just listened to the young master.
So now there are some young newly promoted officials in the court, and there are also a few older ones, but they are all considering asking Yin Tianqi to leave and return to their hometowns.
They clearly knew that the Great Yin was no longer a dynasty in which veterans like them could make decisions.
The writing time of two hours is hasty for the examinee, and the nervous writing without even daring to lift his head is just a moment of calmness for other courtiers, but for Xiao Yiran, it is difficult.
Leaning sideways on the chair, he dozed off lazily, looked at Yin Tianqi who was sitting on the dragon chair with half-opened and half-closed eyes, and wrinkled his nose.
"Your Majesty, I am also tired."
Xiao Yiran's crisp voice interrupted the peace in the hall, all the candidates looked sideways at him, and then turned back to continue writing.
"It's time." Little Lizi turned the hourglass back to the front and continued to flow sand.
The examinee was stunned for a moment, looked at the others, and reluctantly put down the pen.
"Xiao Lizi just said that the time is up but didn't say to close the paper, why don't you continue to write?" Xiao Yiran raised his eyebrows, covered his mouth with his hand and let out a sigh.
The examinee was stunned and continued to write quickly.
They haven't finished writing, and some words are only half written.
Xiao Yiran sneered and muttered, "Pedantry."
Yin Tianqi raised his hand to beckon him, and said softly, "Come here, don't pressure them."
"Hmph." Xiao Yiran stood up and walked to the dragon chair, raised his eyebrows and looked at Yin Tianqi, "Does your majesty disagree with what you said? Although this place is a palace hall, it is only a few walls and a few houses. You group of people who only know how to stick to the rules are working in the court, don’t you just know what it is to blindly let your Majesty say what you say? You idiots.”
With a wave of his hand, there was a soft bang bang bang sound, and the papers on the desk of the ten examinees who looked up at him in a daze suddenly caught fire, and the things they had written for two hours were burned up in an instant.
Yin Tianqi sighed, raised his hand and patted his back, "Why are you so angry?"
"I thought there would be a few decent talents to add some fun to the court, but I didn't expect that there are only one virtue, and what kind of test is there, just choose two people at random."
With a cold face, Xiao Yiran raised his hand and nodded at the two people sitting in the first row, and casually pointed at one of the people in the second row, "Can it be just the three of you?"
The three of them froze, not knowing how to reply.
"Hmph, come here, bring the papers." Xiao Yiran waved his hand, and Xiao Qingzi led nine eunuchs into the room, put down the tray in his hand, saluted Yin Tianqi and Xiao Yiran, and left.
"After reading it, let's talk about each other's thoughts, don't say I didn't give you a chance." Xiao Yiran looked at their silly expressions with cold eyes, then turned around and left.
Ten examinees picked up the test questions in their hands and glanced at them, opening their mouths to scramble to express themselves.
Yin Tianqi turned his head to look at Xiao Yiran who had already left, shook his head and sighed.
His kid is really stubborn.
