Happy Little Scholar

Chapter 509: I am wrong...

Before becoming the dean of the School of Calculation, Li Yi did not have to go to court unless the old emperor specifically requested it.

Although he now has the official position of "House Supervisor", his sphere of influence is only one-third of an acre of land in the college. One person can make all the decisions in the college affairs. The old emperor does not have to worry about the college affairs, and he has nothing to do with the affairs of the court. It doesn't matter, so there is no need to go to court.

But the old emperor was determined today to let him feel what it was like to be attacked by so many courtiers, and he couldn't even hide.

All the officials were already waiting in the palace, but the old emperor hadn't come yet. Li Yi yawned and stepped into the palace. He had been tortured by the tsundere loli these past few days and didn't even have time to take a nap. His work and rest were disordered. I got up too early and am now a little sleepy. I just found a pillar to lean on and take a nap first.

Some officials who were closer to the palace gate saw him and had strange expressions on their faces.

The Qin family, the Chen family, the Cui family, and all the big and small dignitaries and court officials who had impeached him were kept out of the academy. Such a simple and crude approach was tantamount to doing it in front of His Majesty and the entire court. Announce that you are impeaching me, but I just don’t make you feel comfortable. What can you do to me?

Today's court will definitely be a bloody storm. The angry Shu kings may have already thought of how to attack County Uncle Li, and he..., he was leaning against a pillar while going to court. Go to bed.

Many people are surprised and doubtful. Is there really nothing that County Uncle Li cares about?

Li Yi was very concerned about the pillars of the Zhengdian Palace. They were too hard and uncomfortable to lean on, which greatly affected the quality of his sleep.

Finally, he was about to fall asleep when his shoulders suddenly sank. Li Yi woke up instantly. If it weren't for General Xue and several veterans standing opposite him, they would definitely go up and fight him.

"Why do you look so lifeless in the court? Please be more energetic." Old General Xue patted him on the shoulder and said.

The red-faced old general curled his lips and said: "Old man Xue, do you still have the nerve to talk about this kid? When did you go to court and didn't take a nap against a pillar?"

"Old General Xue, Old General Ma..."

Li Yi handed over his hands to several senior generals as juniors. After being patted by General Xue just now, his shoulders were a little numb, and the sleepiness that had finally brewed was gone.

"One of us, don't be so polite!" General Xue waved his hand and said.

The old guys all admired him for his "name in the military book" last time. Although the military book is currently limited to internal exchanges between the royal family and the generals and cannot be widely circulated, there will always be a day when he becomes famous. Although people will not leave their names forever like the authors of military books, at least some people will remember them. This is enough for several veterans who have been fighting for their entire lives.

"Boy, what you did this time is very to my liking." Old General Xue looked at him and said with admiration: "Those rotten guys like to play dirty tricks behind the scenes, how can they be as straightforward as our generals!"

Several veteran generals have been looking at Li Yi as a disciple of the generals. The red-faced general did not look at Li Yi like General Xue did, with a slightly serious expression: "Although this move will relieve anger, it will also offend many people. You still have to look at Li Yi." You are young and do not understand the stakes involved. Even His Majesty will find it difficult to do this. After a while, I am afraid that many people will stand up to impeach you. Remember not to be too tough. As long as you take a step back, His Majesty will protect you. ”

"Junior knows." Li Yi nodded.

These veterans may seem rough, but in fact they are attentive. Their love and care for him is not false at all, and they have taught him many ways to serve as an official.

After waiting for another quarter of an hour, the old emperor slowly appeared from the back of the palace.

The current emperor is the most diligent emperor in the history of Jingguo. Since the day he ascended the throne, except for some major celebrations, activities, and physical reasons, he has had morning court almost every day.

As usual today, several senior officials from several provinces made a brief report first. Seeing that there was no major event to report, Emperor Jing looked down and asked: "How is the enrollment situation of the college?"

Hearing this, the Imperial Academy Officer Jiji Jiu, who was in charge of this matter, stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the enrollment of the college was completed yesterday. Thousands of people took the exam. According to the exam results, the top 100 were admitted. Sixty-six of them were from poor families. The specific list of people has been posted outside the palace gate."

As soon as the Imperial Academy said this, there was a commotion among the officials.

Among the hundred people, there were sixty-six who were officials from poor families. Wouldn't it mean that there were only thirty-four officials' sons?

Although the majority of the people who took the examination were from poor families, the result was still far beyond their expectations.

Emperor Jing was also quite surprised by this result. The two figures were almost the same if they were reversed. Could it be that Li Yi deliberately made things difficult for the officials' children?

"Your Majesty, I have my own account!" A voice suddenly came from the crowd.

Everyone saw Li Shilang of the Ministry of Industry stand up and said: "I impeach Li Yi, the supervisor of the School of Calculation, for being unfair in the admissions process and deliberately making things difficult for some candidates. I hope your majesty will investigate clearly."

After Li Shilang stood up, several people immediately followed him.

The reasons for impeachment are exactly the same. Li Yi, the dean of the School of Mathematical Sciences, did not follow the principle of fairness and justice during the admissions process of the School of Mathematical Sciences. He acted unscrupulously and deliberately made things difficult for certain candidates. He is really sorry for His Majesty and the court's trust in him...

The Qin family, Cui family and Chen family did not come forward, and the officials immediately understood.

Obviously, what they wanted was not to punish Li Xianbo, the supervisor of the academy, but to use this reason to gain more benefits for themselves.

Emperor Jing sat on the top, looked around, and said, "Where is Li Yi?"

The court was silent.

All officials turned their heads and looked around, until an official couldn't help but stretched out his hand to push the young man leaning against the pillar, and whispered, "Li Yuanzhang, His Majesty is calling you."

Li Yi yawned with his mouth covered, walked quickly to the front, bowed and said, "I'm here."

Emperor Jing looked at him and asked, "Some officials impeached you for deliberately making things difficult for some candidates and being unfair in the enrollment of the academy. Is this true?"

"I was confused for a moment." Li Yi nodded.

The hand of Li Shilang of the Ministry of Works froze in his sleeve. He was going to take out the evidence after Li Yi denied it, but he didn't expect that he would admit it so easily, which disrupted all his subsequent plans.

Many court officials shook their heads. This Li County Earl was still too young and acted on impulse. This time, I'm afraid those people won't let go easily.

Emperor Jing opened his mouth, not knowing how to continue.

According to his idea, he wanted to use this matter to grind Li Yi's edges and corners and make him more calm in the future, but he never thought that he would admit it so straightforwardly.

"How should I punish you for forgetting public affairs for personal reasons?" After a long time, Emperor Jing spoke again.

Li Yi looked solemn and sincere, and said: "I am wrong. As the Dean of the Academy of Mathematics, I have failed the trust of the court and failed the expectations of Your Majesty. I feel that I can no longer bear this important responsibility. I beg Your Majesty to allow me to resign from the post of Dean of the Academy of Mathematics and go home to reflect..."

Minister Li of the Ministry of Works stood there blankly, with a wooden expression.

How could this happen... Things shouldn't have developed like this!
