As the sun set, the door to the examination room slowly opened.
Those students who had persisted for the whole day in the scientific examination all walked out of it in low spirits, but some vague expressions of excitement could still be seen on their faces.
In any case, this scientific examination is over, and no matter what the result is, they can only wait.
After being together for such a long time, they all had familiar friends, so they talked about the examination room in small groups and walked towards home.
As for the scientific examination officials, after sorting out their answer sheets, two or three officials took them together and went straight to the palace.
At this moment, Ying Zheng was also waiting for this result. He also sent an order for Ran Fang to enter the palace, so when Feng Quji led other officials into the palace, Ran Fang had just walked to the entrance of the palace.
Several people looked at each other and then walked towards the direction of Qilin Hall.
Along the way, no one took the initiative to talk. What they are most concerned about now is what to do with these answer sheets?
When they arrived at the Qilin Hall, several people said at the same time: "See your Majesty."
"Everyone, get up."
Ying Zheng's eyes saw the piles of answer sheets, and his eyes seemed a little unbelievable. There were so many answer sheets?
He still has memorials to read every day, and if he reads them all, how long will it take to finish them?
However, this thought only flashed through his mind for a moment, and he kicked it out of his mind.
The people standing in the audience did not know what Ying Zheng was thinking. Feng Quji stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, these are the answers to this scientific examination. Please take a look at them."
Looking at the answer sheets, Ying Zheng didn't say anything to ask for the things to be brought up.
Now everyone couldn't figure out what Ying Zheng was thinking. Feng Quji stood there and saw that Ying Zheng didn't speak, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
After a while, just when everyone thought Ying Zheng was going to take all the answer sheets, they saw him frowning, looking at Ran Fang and saying: "There are so many answer sheets, why don't you review them first."
"After the gentleman has chosen from among them, I will make my choice later, how about that?"
It seemed that they did not expect that Ying Zheng would say this. Feng Quji and all the ministers were a little surprised, and they did not expect that things would develop in this direction.
As the prime minister, Feng Quji didn't have much say in Ying Zheng's case, but he still didn't agree with Ying Zheng's actions.
But after following Ran Fang's habit for so many years, he wanted to stop it but didn't dare to speak.
He could only warn Ran Fang with his eyes, hoping that he would be wiser and not dare to agree to anything.
Obviously, Ran Fang didn't feel his "eyes killing", but he didn't say anything to accept the matter.
"Your Majesty, I think there is something wrong with this matter."
"This matter of selecting officials is not my strong point, and the matter is of great importance. If only I make the decision, it will inevitably be subjective and the results may be biased."
"Therefore, I feel that this matter should be chosen by several ministers together, and it is most appropriate for His Majesty to make the final decision."
"I wonder what your Majesty thinks?"
Xu did not expect that Ran Fang would refuse. After all, if he agreed to such a thing, Ran Fang's status in the court would be even higher in the future.
But now Ran Fang refused, and Feng Quji felt embarrassed for his petty thoughts.
Ying Zheng's brows slightly opened as he listened to Ran Fang's words.
He said in a low voice: "This is feasible."
"This will make me feel more at ease," he looked at Feng Quji, and then at the officials behind him. They had all seen the candidates in this scientific examination, so it was inevitable that they would favor a certain person.
Therefore, Ying Zheng thought for a moment and said: "According to my will, Wang Wan and Zhang Han will be responsible for the answer sheet of this scientific examination. Later, ten people from the court will be selected to participate in the answer sheet."
Wang Wan and Zhang Han are both close confidants of Ying Zheng, and they have never participated in the partisan disputes between the government and the government, so it is most appropriate for them to do so.
After figuring out the key, Ran Feng understood how much Ying Zheng valued this scientific examination.
He originally thought that Ying Zheng summoned himself to the palace because of some important matter, but it turned out that he was still a little uncomfortable with such an incident.
When he came out of the palace, he no longer felt like he was being watched, so he relaxed a little.
Sitting in the carriage, there were no pedestrians on the roadside at this moment. Such a quiet environment gave him a chance to think about other things.
For some reason, he suddenly thought of Ran Fang's eyes when he saw those answer sheets, which were obviously tired.
Thinking of the memorials on Ying Zheng's high platform and on the table, and looking at Ying Zheng's dark circles with lack of sleep, he suddenly became worried about Ying Zheng's health.
Although due to exercising and not taking those "golden elixirs", Ying Zheng's health has improved significantly.
But if you stay up late for a long time and don't get enough sleep, your iron-clad body won't be able to bear it.
The world still needs Ying Zheng to govern, so Ying Zheng's health is the top priority.
"How can we help Ying Zheng relieve stress?"
…
The next day, Ran Fang was doing exercises with his guards early in the morning when he noticed that Ying Zheng and Fu Su had arrived. The two stood in the yard and watched them exercise with admiration in their eyes.
Fusu, in particular, secretly winked at the guard behind him, telling him to remember this and do the same when he returns to his mansion in the future.
Not wanting to disturb them, Ying Zheng led the government and wandered around the courtyard hiding from everyone's eyes.
But Ran Fang had already received the news. He left the guards behind and caught up with Ying Zheng.
"See Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty and Young Master, why don't you go to the waiter and sit and chat."
"Okay," Ying Zheng responded with a smile, "I have heard about your waiter for a long time. I have never seen it, but today I want to see it."
"Your Majesty is joking. If Your Majesty likes it, I will send workers into the palace to make a waiter for Your Majesty."
On the way to the waiter, Ran Fang introduced his waiter while guessing the meaning of Ying Zheng and Fusu's visit this time.
He thought, it should be for the scientific examination.
As soon as you enter the door, you can smell the strong aroma of tea, which is refreshing.
Looking at the simple decoration in the room, with a few flowers in bottles, it feels indifferent and elegant.
Ying Zheng looked around and couldn't help but admired: "Sir, you are very interested."
After inviting them to sit down, Ran Fang chuckled and said, "It's just a half-day of leisure."
"Your Majesty is here today, so you can enjoy this rare tranquility."
"Don't think about things in the court, just feel the fragrance of tea and the quiet sound of silk and bamboo, relax your body and mind, completely relax your body and brain, and release the stress in your heart."
After saying that, Ran Fang crossed his legs, put his hands on his knees, closed his eyes and fell into a meditative state.
Although Ying Zheng and Fu Su didn't understand what Ran Fang meant, they imitated Ran Fang's example and began to move. They seemed to have forgotten the passage of time, and their bodies fell into a still state at this moment.
