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

Chapter 90: Ying Zheng’s test, Xiao He shines! Chunyu Yue is so anxious that he jumps over the wall!
"Flat body!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xiao He stood up after hearing the First Emperor's words and stood in the middle with a calm expression.

Ying Zheng looked at Xiao He and nodded secretly in his heart.

Although Xiao He was wearing ordinary clothes, Ying Zheng felt an aura in Xiao He's body.

Ying Zheng remembered clearly the first time he met Prime Minister Li Si. The feeling Li Si gave him was the same as the feeling Xiao He gave him today.

"Xiao He, you must already know the imperial examination system proposed by Fusu."

"The imperial examination system currently lacks a chief invigilator. Fusu recommended you to me."

"Many ministers in the court disagree with Fusu's suggestion. They don't think you can hold this official position."

"Xiao He, do you think you can take on the official position of chief proctor?"

Ying Zheng's face was calm as he looked at Xiao He who was standing below and asked.

After hearing Ying Zheng's words, everyone looked at Fusu and then at Xiao He.

Everyone knew very well that this was a test given by His Majesty to Xiao He.

Meng Yi had an uneasy look on his face at this time. Xiao He's answer not only determines whether he can become the chief invigilator.

It also concerns the face of Mr. Fu Su, who recommended Xiao He to His Majesty.

If Xiao He's answer dissatisfies His Majesty, those ministers who oppose Fusu will definitely take this opportunity to attack Fusu.

Chunyu Yue had a smile on his face when he heard the First Emperor's words, and Xiao He, recommended by Fusu, walked in wearing ordinary clothes.

Xiao He gave Chun Yuyue a very ordinary feeling. From Chun Yuyue's point of view, Fusu just wanted to find a trustworthy person to be the examiner.

Now facing His Majesty and so many ministers, a chief official in a county saw such a situation.

It's already good to be able to speak complete sentences, let alone express myself in front of His Majesty.

Chunyu Yue couldn't wait any longer and looked at Xiao He's embarrassed appearance in front of His Majesty.

Once Xiao He performed poorly, Chun Yuyue had already planned to attack Fusu.

Not only to question Fusu, but also to ask His Majesty to appoint him as the chief proctor.

In this way, he will be in charge of Da Qin's talents.

Whoever he wants to be chosen can be chosen.

Li Si frowned slightly and looked at Xiao He who was standing in the middle of the hall, even though Xiao He was wearing ordinary clothes and looked ordinary.

Li Si felt a touch of temperament in Xiao He's body, which made Li Si a little afraid of Xiao He.

Xiao He was recommended to His Majesty by Fu Su. Li Si thought that Xiao He was not as simple as he seemed.

Hu Hai looked at Xiao He with a hint of contempt on his face. Just now, Hu Hai felt that it was not easy for Xiao He to be recommended by Fusu.

When he saw Xiao He's appearance, Hu Hai felt that Fusu's vision was not very good either.

The father has already begun to test Xiao He. It is already very good for a county official to speak completely to the father.

Hu Hai was also waiting for Xiao He to make a mistake. At that time, some ministers would definitely use Xiao He as an excuse to attack Fusu.

When Xiao He heard what the First Emperor said, he knew that His Majesty was testing him.

Today, Master Fusu faced pressure from other ministers and recommended himself as the chief invigilator.

Young Master Fusu valued him so much, Xiao He would never let Young Master Fusu down.

"Your Majesty, although I am only an official in the county."

"I also want to do my part for the prosperity of Great Qin."

"I can best understand the feelings of those who have talents but cannot realize their ambitions because they have no background."

"If Your Majesty allows me to serve as the chief proctor, I promise that I will select useful talents for Your Majesty."

"These selected talents will definitely do their part to make Da Qin prosperous."

Xiao He had a trace of determination on his face as he watched the First Emperor say that he wanted to be the chief proctor.

Xiao He had always felt that he was unappreciated for his talent, until he met Mr. Fusu.

Master Fusu gave him an opportunity, and Xiao He must seize this opportunity.

Being the chief proctor allows him to express his ambitions, and Xiao He believes that he can do a good job in this official position.

After Xiao He finished speaking, the hall became quiet for a moment, and all the ministers looked at Xiao He.

They originally thought that when Xiao He faced His Majesty's test, he would be afraid that what he said would be unsatisfactory.

I didn't expect that Xiao He's words just now were said with such confidence.

Ying Zheng had a smile on his face when he heard Xiao He's words. A chief official in a county faced his question and the gazes of other ministers.

Under such a stressful situation, Xiao He still answered so confidently.

Ying Zheng looked at Xiao He with admiration. At least in terms of momentum, Xiao He was not submissive.

This is very important to Ying Zheng, and Li Si was so confident when he gave him advice.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say!"

Chunyu Yue came out with an ugly face and looked at the First Emperor with his hands raised in salute.

Chunyu Yue originally wanted to see Xiao He's embarrassment, but he didn't expect Xiao He to answer so calmly and confidently.

This made Chunyu Yue very dissatisfied. He was just a county official.

Such rhetoric in front of His Majesty and the ministers, if His Majesty really agrees to Xiao He becoming the chief invigilator.

Chun Yuyue's plan will be ruined, and people will talk about fighting for the chief proctor himself to lose to a chief official in the county.

He can still tolerate such things happening, Chunyu Yue still has to fight for it.

"Does Pu She have anything else to say?"

Ying Zheng's face returned to calmness and he looked at Chun Yuyue.

"Your Majesty, Xiao He boasts and talks a lot."

"The imperial examination system is for the purpose of selecting talents for the Qin Dynasty, and the position of the chief examiner is very important."

"No matter how good Xiao He is, he is just a chief official in the county. It is inappropriate to be the chief invigilator."

"Your Majesty is also requested to select a chief invigilator among the ministers in the court."

Chunyu Yue looked at the First Emperor and expressed his thoughts.

He knew in his heart that he could only use Xiao He's low official position as an excuse to oppose Xiao He becoming the chief invigilator.

"I second the proposal!"

"I second the proposal!"

Some ministers who supported Chun Yuyue quickly stood up and agreed.

They also knew that this was their last chance and they would not come out to support Chun Yuyue.

Xiao He, recommended by Fusu, really wants to become the chief invigilator.

By that time, it would be almost impossible for them to want the young people in the family to be selected as talents.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I have something to say to Pu She and these ministers."

Xiao He looked at the First Emperor and bowed his hands and said.

Just now when Chun Yuyue and several ministers opposed Xiao He as the chief invigilator, Ying Zheng looked at Xiao He.

He found that Xiao He's expression did not change at all, and he acted very indifferently.

Now Xiao He had something to say to Chun Yuyue and others, and Ying Zheng also wanted to hear how Xiao He would talk to these people.

"I forgive you!"

Ying Zheng looked at Xiao He and agreed to Xiao He's request.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After Xiao He saluted, he turned to look at Chun Yuyue and several other ministers: "Master Pushe and all your lords."

"A few of you think that Xiao He is just a chief official in the county, and you think that Xiao He cannot serve as the chief invigilator of the imperial examination system."

"Don't you think that your suggestions are too arbitrary?"

Xiao He looked at Chun Yuyue with an indifferent expression, and said to several other ministers who opposed him.

When Chunyu Yue heard Xiao He's question, he felt a trace of anger in his heart.

He was a servant of the Qin Dynasty and an important minister in the imperial court. Except for Li Si, all the ministers would greet him first when they saw him.

A county official dared to question his proposal.

Still questioning him in front of His Majesty and other ministers, in Chun Yuyue's view, Xiao He was humiliating him.

The faces of several other ministers also turned ugly. They were also important ministers in the court.

The county magistrate is not worthy of talking to them, but a county official dares to talk to them like this.

"Humph!"

"You, a county official, are boasting here!"
