Chapter 53: The Examinees Revolt
Imperial Academy.
Gu Wanwan covered up the names of all the candidates' test papers and sent all the test papers here.
Seeing that many of the ministers of the Imperial Academy were here, they were reading the papers, and Gu Wanwan stood aside, walking around and staring at them.
In the end, when the results of the examination come out, the names of those who have won will be written on a big red piece of paper and pasted at the gate of the imperial city.
Many candidates gathered at the gate of the imperial city, and the first place on the list was also very unexpected, it was Ouyang Xin who fainted in the examination room.
"This Ouyang Xin has become the first place in one person, no matter how you look at it, it's not right!"
"That's it! Could it be that Lord Gu is covering it up in private? ”
At this time, Gu Wanwan was standing on the wall of the imperial city, and standing behind her were the officials who participated in the marking and invigilation.
Gu Wanwan was helpless, in this world, there will always be people like this, she hasn't even seen Ouyang Xin's test papers, how can she cover up?
If she went down to confront those people, those people would probably say that she had given Ouyang Xin the answer in advance.
Ouyang Xin fainted from physical exhaustion in the morning, the first subject was not tested at all, and the second subject was relieved before the exam began, so that he could also get the first exam, this is her fault?
The voices below are getting louder and louder, and more and more people are beginning to question Gu Wanwan.
"Master Gu, why don't you go down and explain? If this matter reaches the emperor's ears, it will not be good. Qin Shilang walked to Gu Wanwan's side and persuaded.
"I see."
Gu Wanwan flicked her sleeves and turned to leave.
"We want to see Master Gu and ask for justice!"
"That's right! See Lord Gu! ”
Those candidates revolted en masse.
Gu Wanwan walked out of the imperial city with a big grin, and those candidates were like crazy, and they all rushed towards Gu Wanwan.
The soldiers on both sides stepped forward one after another and stopped in front of Gu Wanwan.
"Alright, be quiet." Gu Wanwan rolled her eyes, rubbed her ears, and suddenly felt tired.
After listening to Gu Wanwan's words, everyone present quieted down, and one of the candidates standing at the front looked like he was about forty years old, and he pointed at Gu Wanwan with an angry expression.
"Ouyang Xin has taken one less exam, and he is still the champion, how is this kind of thing possible, it must be that Lord Gu secretly gave him the answer!"
Big brother, she also knew about the character of Ouyang Xin in the examination room, right?
Besides, Ouyang Xin is so poor, what can he bribe her? Can you have a little brain?
I secretly scolded him thousands of times in my heart, and for the sake of her image outside, Gu Wanwan still had to look at them with a smile on her face, and her tone was soft.
"This candidate, if Gu Wan has any cover-up and leakage of answers, I think that everything in the palace examination will have an answer in the future, you can question me, but you can't question the emperor!"
When Gu Wanwan said the last sentence, her voice was relatively loud.
Those who were still dissatisfied heard very clearly.
Even if you can pass the current test, at most it is just one more title of tribute, if you enter the palace test, you can see at a glance whether it is a donkey or a horse.
Everyone was dumbfounded by Gu Wanwan's words, and the expressions on their faces were colorful.
"Alright, if you're all right, let's disperse." Gu Wanwan turned around and left.
When she turned around, there was a sudden sigh from those candidates behind her, and she couldn't help but slow down.
"Year after year, I've been here twice, and I still haven't had a chance to enter the temple exam."
"Forget it, let's go back and find a place, teach, and spend this life in vain."
Listening to their voices, Gu Wanwan stopped, looked sideways, looked at them, and suddenly felt some sympathy for them in her heart, looking at the backs of those who left, with a deep sigh and disappointment.
In the past, as long as the college entrance examination was not particularly bad, you could go to a junior college or a little undergraduate school, but now, there are only so many places that will be selected.
There are more than 100 candidates, and now only less than half of them have entered.
The others can only leave with regret and wait for next year.
Look at these candidates, they are all sixty years old, and I don't know how many years I have been taking the exam.
"I'm also the creator of this book from beginning to end, these people, I should be able to change their ending." Gu Wanwan muttered.
Isn't it just a failure, it's a big deal, find a way to persuade the emperor to get a college system out and set up a college to cultivate the potential of these people?
Thinking of this, Gu Wanwan's eyes lit up, her hand slapped the table, and she hurriedly walked towards the palace.
Coming to the imperial study, Gu Wanwan stopped and looked at the location at the door of the imperial study, Ning Changyuan happened to come out of the imperial study, with a straight face, there should be nothing good happened.
When they walked past Gu Wanwan's side, the two of them stopped.
Before Gu Wanwan could ask him what was wrong, Ning Changyuan frowned and said to her, "I haven't caused much trouble recently." ”
"What's wrong? Is something wrong? ”
Gu Wanwan asked suspiciously.
Ning Changyuan turned around and looked in the direction of the imperial study, and whispered beside her, "Concubine Yue is pregnant." ”
After saying that, he continued to walk towards the front and left.
Is Concubine Yue pregnant? Is there any mistake? She's pregnant, if she fanned the wind in the emperor's ear, wouldn't she die?
Oh my god.
Thinking that she might die unexplained in the future, Gu Wanwan couldn't help but swallow her saliva, and looked at the imperial study in front of her, and didn't know whether to walk in or not.
groped her way to the door, but Gu Wanwan hesitated and stopped.
"Master Gu, why don't you come in when you come." The emperor's voice came from inside the imperial study.
Gu Wanwan originally wanted to leave, but when she heard this voice, she couldn't leave even if she wanted to.
I had no choice but to walk in.
Came to the imperial study, Gu Wanwan lowered her head and silently saluted the emperor, after saluting, Gu Wanwan raised her head, only to see the emperor sitting there at this time, and there was a concubine sitting next to her.
The emperor's hand was holding Concubine Yue's shoulder, looking at her lower abdomen, with a gentle face.
The moment she saw Concubine Yue, Gu Wanwan was stunned.
Concubine Yue is also ...... It's hard to do now, but I think of those candidates who failed the list.
Forget it, take a gamble.
Raising her head, Gu Wanwan looked at the emperor with a firm look in her eyes, "Your Majesty, Weichen came today because I want to discuss something with Your Majesty, and I also hope that Your Majesty agrees." ”
The emperor let go of the hand holding Concubine Yue, the smile on his face couldn't be contained, and he looked very good.
"If there is something about Lord Gu, just say it."
