After being bound to the learning system in my mother's womb, I became the empress

Chapter 351 You are questioning my decision
Early the next morning.

Lin Xi and others came to Qionglin Garden, the royal garden located outside the palace.

The Literature Museum has not yet been built, so the selection of 24 bachelors will be held in the Wenhua Hall of Qionglin Garden.

The selection time is at the beginning of Sishi (9 o'clock). It is still early and the door of Wenhua Hall has not yet opened.

There are two rows of fully armed dragon scale guards guarding the outside of the hall, and no one is allowed to approach.

And it was Lin Dayou who led the Dragon Scale Guards to maintain order.

The selection of the 24th Bachelor of Literature was a big event, so in addition to those recommended, many officials also came to watch this grand event.

There were many people standing in the square outside the palace.

The arrival of Lin Xi and his party attracted some people's attention.

"Did these people go to the wrong place? This is not a banquet, but a bachelor's selection at the Literature Hall. Why did women and children get in?"

In the crowd, Zhang Mao deliberately revealed: "You don't know yet, right? Those people were recommended by Right Prime Minister Lin Jian to participate in the selection of Bachelor of Literature, and they are from Lingxiao College."

"What? Recommended by the Right Prime Minister? This is too childish!"

"Your Excellency, the Prime Minister, is so confused. He actually recommended a few women and young boys?"

"How many knowledgeable and knowledgeable scholars were not recommended, so how could those few women and children be selected?"

"It is said that that young man is Lin Jian's grandson Lin Wushang. Lin Jian is clearly nepotistic!"

"Lingxiao Academy? Is it the one that made a big fuss a few months ago? It even accepts common people who don't know a single Chinese character?"

"Not only common people are admitted, but even women can study there. It's not a serious college. Maybe they are doing some shameful things in the name of teaching."

"Oh, a Pheasant Academy with no foundation, how can there be any knowledgeable people in it? It dares to come and compete with us. I really don't know how high the sky is and how high it is."

"Right Prime Minister Lin Jian is just a businessman, and he smells like copper. As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together, so those who can be recommended by him are probably just ordinary people who are obsessed with money."

Those who made the discussion were basically from aristocratic families. They all claimed to be knowledgeable and noble, and they all had a sense of superiority towards people outside the aristocratic family.

I feel that everyone other than them are ignorant idiots and are not worthy of being compared with them.

Therefore, when they learned that Lin Xi and the others were also here to participate in the bachelor's selection, they all felt offended and angry.

Do these lowly women and common people deserve to be on the same track as them?
Lin Xi glanced at those people coldly and put on the blacklist all those who spoke ill of her and Lingxiao Academy.

Now her business empire has spread throughout Dayong and even spread to foreign countries.

Those who are on her blacklist will soon experience the feeling of being pinned down and rubbed by her business empire.

Aren’t you looking down on businessmen and women?

When they have money but can't buy food, clothing, pens, ink, paper, inkstones and other daily necessities, let's see if they can still show such a noble and contemptuous face.

Seeing Lin Xi and others being laughed at, Zhang Mao in the crowd smiled coldly.

Yesterday, the woman named Xiling had her clothes taken off in public, causing the Xiangyun gauze undershirt he was wearing to be exposed.

The image of integrity that he had worked hard for many years suddenly collapsed, and he was even kicked out of the Duke's Mansion.

How could he not avenge this?

A person as famous and knowledgeable as him has been expelled from the selection process. Why can those unknown people from Lingxiao Academy participate in the selection process?
Just wait, when the emperor arrives, he will definitely read a copy of Lin Jian to the emperor in public.

He was nepotistic, abused his power, and betrayed the emperor's trust!

Lin Xi, who was enriching the blacklist, suddenly noticed a malicious gaze, and she shot it accurately.I found out that it was Zhang Mao who had a concave and honest personality.

It seems that this person holds a grudge against her for exposing him yesterday and causing the collapse of other people's designs.

There seems to be something bad going on.

But she was not afraid at all.

If you dare to play with her, be prepared to be played to death by her.

I just hope this person doesn’t regret it when the time comes.

There was still a quarter of an hour before the selection, when the emperor's chariot arrived.

The six big bosses who are now in charge of the government, including the left and right prime ministers and the six ministers, accompanied him.

Lin Dayou ordered someone to open the palace door and step forward to greet him.

The emperor stepped down from the dragon chariot.

At this time, a man suddenly rushed towards the emperor.

Lin Dayou thought he was an assassin and quickly restrained him.

Zhang Mao, who was kicked to the ground and landed on his face: "..."

His face was burning with pain.

But he still stood up firmly and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, my humble minister Zhang Mao, I have something to report!"

The emperor glanced at the bright sun and asked Jiang Hai, the chamberlain at his side: "What time is it?"

Jiang Hai: "Your Majesty, it's already a quarter of an hour before it's time."

The emperor then said: "Qing Zhang, the selection for the Literature Museum is about to take place. If you have any questions, please wait until the selection is over."

Zhang Mao, however, refused to give up: "Your Majesty, the matter reported by the minister is exactly related to the selection of the Literature Museum!
"Right Prime Minister Lin Jian is a nepotist and abuses his power. He actually recommended his 12-year-old grandson Lin Wushang to participate in the selection!
"There are also two women, Xiling and Huarui, and Wu Hongxue, a commoner in his weak years!
"Even many ministers in the DPRK were not included in the recommendation list. How virtuous and capable are these people? What qualifications do they have to participate in the selection of the Literature Museum?
"The 24th bachelor of the Literature Museum is responsible for the important task of writing and compiling history. The selection is so important. How can the Right Prime Minister be so ridiculous?

"If Xiling, Lin Wushang and others can participate in the selection, how can the government and the public be convinced? How can the people of the world be convinced?"

Zhang Mao's impassioned speeches were resounding and his righteous appearance made those who didn't know think he was some kind of loyal minister who cared about the country and the people.

Discussions arose among the crowd.

"Yes, how can the Right Prime Minister convince the public with this move?"

"It is said that Lin Wushang has never been to school for a day, and he probably doesn't even know a few words, but he can still come to participate in the selection? It's simply ridiculous."

"And those two women, who are so beautiful and young, don't know how they got the qualifications to be recommended. I'm afraid there are a lot of dirty things going on here."

"It is said that Zhang Mao was originally on the recommendation list for the right prime minister, but he was kicked out at the end. I'm afraid it was just to make room for those people, right?"

"Zhang Mao is known to be honest and honest, and does not care about fame and fortune. He actually stood up at this time. I don't know how wronged he has been."

……

The emperor looked around, his aura of calmness and dignity shocked everyone.

The person who was talking enthusiastically just now fell silent for a moment, and the whole place was completely silent.

The emperor spoke calmly: "The list of recommendations submitted by the Right Prime Minister was approved by me. Zhang Mao, are you questioning my decision?"
