Da Qin: From a disciple of Fusu to a generation of imperial masters

Chapter 88 Chunyu Yue and Li Si compete to become the chief invigilator!

Li Si frowned when he heard Chunyu Yue's words. Just now Chun Yuyue and Fusu were tit for tat.

Now Chunyu Yue actually agreed to Fusu's proposal. Could it be that Chunyu Yue knew that he could not stop His Majesty from implementing the imperial examination system and wanted to have a good relationship with Fusu?

Li Si vetoed this decision in his heart. Chunyu Yue must have other reasons for agreeing to Fusu's suggestion.

Meng Yi looked at Chun Yuyue with a smile on his face, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

Chunyu Yue has been tit for tat with Mr. Fusu, and Meng Yi is not worried.

But now that Chun Yuyue supports Master Fu Su's proposal, Meng Yi feels that there must be fraud in it.

Hu Hai had an angry look on his face at this time, and Chunyu Yue's words just now seemed to him to be to please Fusu.

Hu Hai felt that Chunyu Yue still wanted to join Fusu again.

The corner of Fusu's mouth slightly rose when he heard Chun Yuyue's words. He knew very well why his so-called teacher agreed to his proposal.

Chunyu Yue saw everyone's eyes turned towards him, and without any panic, he raised his hands to the First Emperor and said:
"The imperial examination system is to select outstanding talents for the Qin Dynasty and His Majesty's use."

"The position of chief proctor is very important. Those who want to hold this official position must have a resounding reputation in addition to ability."

"Otherwise, those selected talents will have complaints against the chief invigilator."

With a smile on his face, Chunyu Yue expressed his proposal.

The minister who just looked at a loss suddenly realized what he said when he heard Chun Yuyue's words.

The ministers who opposed Fusu had excited expressions on their faces at this time.

Chun Yuyue's words reminded them that the invigilator had too much power.

The selection of talents is the final decision of the chief invigilator. In their opinion, Chun Yuyue is the candidate for the chief invigilator.

Chunyu Yue was a servant of Qin Dynasty, Fusu's teacher, and an elder of Confucianism.

Now they understand why Chunyu Yue agreed to Fusu's words, and Chunyu Yue wanted to become the chief invigilator.

In this way, Chunyu Yue has the final say as to which talent to choose.

"Your Majesty, I believe that Mr. Pushe is well-known as an important minister in the court and is the best candidate to be the chief proctor."

"I second the proposal!"

"I second the proposal!"

Some ministers stood up and recommended Chun Yuyue to be the chief proctor to the First Emperor.

They know Chun Yuyue's character very well, if Chun Yuyue becomes the chief invigilator.

They only need to pay some money to let the children in the family pass Chun Yuyue's selection.

Li Si felt a little dissatisfied when he heard the words of these ministers.

Sure enough, his guess was correct. Chunyu Yue must have had another purpose in agreeing to Fusu's request.

Chunyu Yue wanted to become the chief invigilator, but Li Si knew very well that once Chunyu Yue became the chief invigilator.

The selected talents are either the children of Confucianism or the children of the families of various ministers in the court.

It is difficult for Chun Yuyue to select talents who have no background and talents.

Unless these people are willing to spend money, Chunyu Yue may let a few people pass the selection for the sake of money.

Li Si knew Chunyu Yue's character very well, and he valued money and reputation most.

Meng Yi looked at Chun Yuyue with a trace of anger on his face. He now understood that this was Chun Yuyue's purpose.

Chunyu Yue wanted to become the chief invigilator, and Meng Yi was ready to make suggestions to His Majesty.

He would not allow Chunyu Yue to become the chief invigilator. Once Chunyu Yue became the chief invigilator, the imperial examination system proposed by Master Fusu would become a joke.

Hu Hai looked at Fusu with a smile on his face. Just now he thought Chunyu Yue had joined Fusu again.

After hearing the words of several ministers, Hu Hai understood Chunyu Yue's purpose.

Chun Yuyue becoming the chief invigilator is also good news for Hu Hai. He has several retainers in his house.

If Chun Yuyue becomes the chief proctor, these disciples can have the opportunity to be selected by their father to become ministers in the court.

"Your Majesty, I feel that Prime Minister Li Si is the best candidate to serve as the chief invigilator."

A minister stood up and named Prime Minister Li Si.

"Your Majesty conquered the six countries, and Prime Minister Li Si made many achievements."

"The reputation of the Prime Minister is known to everyone in Da Qin."

"The Prime Minister is also very talented in knowledge." "I think Prime Minister Li Si is the best candidate to serve as the chief proctor."

Another minister came out to echo and also named Li Si.

When Chunyu Yue heard Li Si's name, there was a hint of displeasure on his face.

The relationship between him and Li Si was very bad, not only because he was a Confucian and Li Si was a Legalist, but also because Li Si's official position and reputation in the court were always higher than his.

If it were other ministers, Chunyu Yue would still be confident that the official position of chief invigilator would be his own.

Facing Prime Minister Li Si, Chunyu Yue was unsure.

The ministers who supported Chun Yuyue heard this and stood up to refute.

The ministers who supported Li Si showed no sign of weakness, and the hall instantly became noisy.

Many ministers began to tit for tat with each other, discussing who should be the chief invigilator, Chun Yuyue or Li Si.

"Humph!"

Ying Zheng looked at the quarreling ministers in the hall and snorted heavily.

The hall instantly became quiet, and the ministers returned to their seats and knelt down.

"Fusu, who do you think should be the chief invigilator?"

Ying Zheng looked at Fusu who looked calm and asked.

Fusu proposed the establishment of the official position of chief proctor, and Yingzheng agreed.

Ying Zheng also felt that among the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, only Li Si and Chun Yuyue were the most suitable.

Ying Zheng was partial to Li Si in his heart, but as the prime minister, Li Si had a high position and needed to assist him in handling many affairs.

Let Li Si serve as the invigilator. Ying Zheng was worried that Li Si would not have much time to do what the invigilator should do.

As for Chun Yuyue, he had just been in tit-for-tat with Fusu and he had heard some news about Chun Yuyue.

Ying Zheng also did not want Chunyu Yue to serve as the chief invigilator.

As a result, there was no suitable person to serve as the invigilator, and Ying Zheng could only look at Fusu who made the suggestion.

He wanted to know who Fusu would choose as the chief invigilator among Li Si and Chunyu Yue.

When the ministers heard what the First Emperor said, they looked at Fusu.

The ministers like them all see Fusu's performance recently, and His Majesty also values ​​Fusu more and more.

Fusu will tell you who will be the chief invigilator, and His Majesty will probably agree with Fusu's suggestion.

Let this person become the chief invigilator. The only candidates who can become the chief invigilator now are Li Si and Chun Yuyue.

Fusu and Chun Yuyue were already so tit for tat, so how could they choose Chun Yuyue.

Just now Li Si spoke for Fusu, Fusu will definitely choose Li Si to be the chief invigilator.

Thinking of this, the minister who had just supported Chun Yuyue felt very dissatisfied.

The position of chief proctor seems to have fallen into Li Si's bag.

The minister who supported Li Si had a smile on his face, even though Chun Yuyue was Fusu's teacher.

However, Chun Yuyue and Li Si were so tit-for-tat today, and they knew in their hearts that the teacher-student relationship existed in name only.

Fusu would not choose Chunyu Yue, who opposed his proposed imperial examination system, but would only choose Li Si, who had just supported Fusu.

Chunyu Yue lowered his head, feeling very angry.

His Majesty asked Fusu to name the candidate for the invigilator, and Fusu would definitely name Li Si.

He originally wanted to become the chief proctor, but his plan was shattered.

Li Si had a smile on his face at this time. After His Majesty's words came out, he knew that Master Fusu would choose him.

The position of chief invigilator did have some temptations for him, but it was also the reason why Li Si was happy that Chunyu Yue could not become the chief invigilator.

Hu Hai's face turned slightly ugly. His father once again asked Fusu's proposal instead of him.

Hu Hai knew in his heart that Fusu would definitely tell Li Si's name.

In this way, Chun Yuyue's goal was not achieved, and it was impossible for him to want his disciples to be selected.

"Father, I really want to recommend someone to my father to be the chief proctor!"
