After the child's mind was read, the tyrant caught the male queen with a black face

But the gray-clothed man's words successfully resonated with many students, and several of them came over to talk:

"I strongly agree that the question is tricky and narrow. Just give me a line of poetry and ask me to analyze the social livelihood of the time! God damn, the poet who wrote the poem may not even understand the war situation at the time and is just writing nonsense."

"That's right! They also gave me a line of poetry and asked me to analyze where the poet lived at the time. That's fine, but they also asked me to describe in detail what the war was like at the time. I've never been in the kitchen, so I just wrote it down with my head held high."

"Yes, yes! There is another question, which asks us to write about how to reasonably collect salt and iron taxes. This is a difficult question that will offend people. I know I dare not write too much."

"Wait, when did the "Salt and Iron Tax" come up on the test paper?"

“It’s the first question.”

"Ah? Doesn't that mean we should analyze the "well-field system, equal-field system and other land law reforms"? "

"……what?"

……

At this time, the man in gray popped up again and said, "My future colleagues, look at these questions. Aren't they just asking us to nitpick? It's okay that the questions are narrow in scope. I have a friend who is not good at the Four Books and Five Classics, but is very good at poetry and songs. He is a rare talent. Can you believe it? He doesn't even have the qualifications to enter the capital. Alas... the environment for being an official in Daxia is really not as good as that in Chen and Chu."

After hearing this, most of the students nodded and discussed:

"Indeed, this non-recommendation system is not suitable for those talented people with great literary talent."

"Daxia's imperial examination system has really narrowed the path, and it's unfair to those great talents."

"But I have one objection. It's not as good as Chu, but Chen is almost being beaten to death by Daxia. We can't go there."

……

The more Yuan Ruan listened, the more weird it felt. The gray-clothed man's words seemed to be provocative. Could he be trying to stir up trouble?

Just when Yuan Ruan was wondering whether he should ask his brother to come over in advance to control the situation, Yu Tu, who had been silent since answering the question once, suddenly spoke.

"Is it better to go to Chu?" Yu Tu's voice was full of rejection. "Do you know how many of the one hundred aides can be recommended as officials? Do you know that Chu is caught up in a turmoil over the succession, and if you don't choose the right master, you will be sacrificed?! The most important thing is that as foreigners, you have almost no chance of being accepted as a core aide by a noble. Chu is much more exclusive than Xia."

After these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.

Yu Tu said slowly, "As for those who criticize the imperial examination system as unfair, they are either stupid or bad."

After hearing such ruthless words, the students looked a little unhappy, but they just said a few words to save face and stopped talking.

Yuan Ruan couldn't help but look at Yu Tu again. Although his facial features were ordinary, he looked handsome.

She pulled Qi Yue's hand and whispered, "Seventh sister, this is excellent."

Qi Yue narrowed her eyes, then nodded steadily: "Well, this one is a bit short and thin, I'll pick another one later."

Yuan Ruan's mouth twitched.

The system suddenly laughed out loud: [Haha, Ah Ruan... I feel like Qi Yue is picking pigs! But this one is really excellent and can manage your Imperial Master Mansion well. ]

Yuan Ruan shook his head repeatedly: [That’s not necessary. Such excellent things should be handed over to the country. It’s a waste for me. ]

The system refuted very seriously: [Giving it to Ah Ruan won’t be a waste! In fact, if you don’t give it to Ah Ruan, he will be useless. ]

Yuanruan: [Ah?]

Just at this moment, the emperor and his entourage walked in:?
