Chapter 1618
"Respect teachers. When you started studying literature at the age of three, your parents and teachers taught you this principle. I, standing in this classroom, am your teacher!"
"Let's not talk about whether I have the ability to teach you anything, but at least you should know the etiquette of respecting teachers, right?"
Ling Yu's questioning made some officials lower their heads in shame.
Some didn't take it seriously. Shi Chen, the new champion, couldn't help but muttered in a low voice: "It's not your unfair handling that caused public outrage!"
Ling Yu's ears were so strong that she immediately heard Shi Chen's words. She said loudly: "Shi Chen, stand up and repeat what you just said loudly to everyone!"
Shi Chen was also an upright person, and without any fear, he stood up and repeated it loudly.
Ling Yu was not angry, she admired such an upright person.
She nodded: "Sit down!"
"Everyone, since you all feel that my punishment is unfair, I will ask you a few questions. As long as your answers are approved by everyone, I will withdraw the punishment against them!"
"No noise is allowed when answering questions this time. Those who want to speak raise their hands!"
Ling Yu looked around at everyone before saying, "Who will answer the first question!"
This time, these officials did not dare to make any noise, and those who wanted to answer and stand out raised their hands.
Ling Yu saw Shi Chen also raised his hand and pointed at him: "First question, Shi Chen answers!"
Shi Chen stood up and looked at Ling Yu nervously, wondering what questions she would ask.
"If today's training takes place on the battlefield, I have already notified them to focus on studying, but they don't show up. If you were the general, what would you do with them?"
Ling Yu asked slowly.
Shi Chen was immediately speechless. Even though he was a civil servant, he knew that the commander had orders on the battlefield. If he did not strictly follow the orders or delayed the military situation, he would be beheaded.
"Empress, this cannot be compared. There is no need to delay on the battlefield, but this training..."
Shi Chenqiang maintained his defense.
"What's wrong with the training? Isn't it an order? Civil servants and military attachés may face crisis-ridden situations!"
"Suppose a fire or flood suddenly breaks out in the area under your jurisdiction, and you ask your government officials to put out the fire, but they don't arrive. Can you say it is different from the battlefield?"
This time Shi Chen was asked and couldn't defend himself, but he still didn't feel that the importance of training was comparable to that of a fire battlefield.
Ling Yu did not continue to ask further questions, but directly nodded at Shen Zhi, the second person on the list: "You answer the second question...can you drive a carriage?"
Shen Zhi was confused by the question. Is there any connection between training and carriage driving?
Although he was confused, he still said honestly: "I am ashamed to say that I can't!"
Ling Yu looked around at the crowd and asked, "Who can drive a carriage and stand up without learning?"
How is this possible!
Although the officials have never driven a carriage, they also know that driving a carriage is not that easy. How to make the horse obedient and how to turn left and right are all skills.
Ling Yu saw that everyone was speechless when being asked, and then said calmly: "I asked Mr. Huang to inform you to come and participate in the training. It is the training for you to become officials before you take office!"
"Being an official is like driving a carriage. If you don't study systematically, how can you be a good official for one parent?"
"These absentees are not even willing to learn the most basic methods of being an official. Can we still expect them to be good officials?"
"Today they can ignore orders, but tomorrow they can ignore national laws!"
"I am removing them from their posts now to remind them to reflect on themselves before they make a big mistake..."
