After this official has finished reading all the exam questions, all candidates may begin to write their answers. The time allowed is one hour. When the time is up, all candidates must stop writing and hand in their papers. Candidates may hand in their papers early but are not allowed to delay doing so.

"Now, I will read the exam questions."

After Hu Pi finished speaking, not only did all the candidates prick up their ears to listen for the exam questions, but even the civil and military officials in attendance were very curious.

In previous years, the final exam for the imperial examinations, known as the Palace Examination, generally involved several sets of questions prepared by the Board of Ministers. The emperor would then select one question from these sets to serve as the Palace Examination topic.

But this year is different from the past.

The entire palace examination questions, the prince didn't let the cabinet intervene at all.

So the real exam questions, let alone civil and military officials, are still unknown even to the cabinet now.

Hu Pi was also unclear about what the exam question was. Only after he finished speaking did Sanbao take out a sealed exam paper and hand it to him.

Having broken the seal, Hu Pi became the second person in the world, after Li Chen, to know the exam questions.

Seeing the exam questions, Hu Pi was taken aback at first, then he looked down at the expressions of the students and his face became somewhat strange and...sympathetic.

To be honest, Hu Pi now understood why the Prince had specifically ordered him to announce the exam questions.

On this topic, among all the officials and scholars in the court, apart from this old bone who is just waiting to retire, hardly anyone dares to read it out loud.

Suppressing the emotions in his heart, Hu Pi cleared his throat and spoke amidst the expectant silence.

"Looking back at history, through all dynasties and eras, the flourishing of a nation is invariably due to a benevolent ruler, loyal ministers, an enlightened central government, and open communication between officials and the people. This allows the common people to live in peace and prosperity, while external enemies dare not encroach."

“The decline and fall of a nation are due to a corrupt ruler, treacherous officials, a weak court, and the people fighting over profits. The common people live in misery, and foreign enemies and bandits surround it.”

Today's commentary asks a question: is the rise and fall of nations, the change of dynasties, due to natural disasters or human actions If it is due to human actions, how can we clarify this

After finishing reading the exam questions, Hu Pi pretended not to hear the buzzing discussions from the ministers who were completely unable to contain their excitement. He declared in a powerful voice, "Time for answering begins!"

Whenever there was a palace examination, the test focused on essays.

Moreover, essay writing in this context typically starts with national policies and requires examinees to possess a broad perspective and a high level of vision. They should put themselves in the shoes of managers or policymakers to think about and solve problems.

But after all, this is only a simulation test for students, so throughout history, the questions of all imperial examinations have not been too difficult.

Especially the Qin dynasty, most emperors throughout history focused on pragmatism. Therefore, the imperial examinations posed questions based on a specific aspect or industry's current situation for candidates to solve.

This is the first time, allowing candidates to answer a question that's so vast and boundless from the perspective of the entire nation.

The rise and fall of nations That's something ordinary people shouldn't talk about.

Natural disasters and man-made disasters, this clearly indicates that there are man-made disasters in the Qin Empire, requiring candidates to think about solving these man-made disasters.

Who is to blame for this person

Zhaoxuanji's face turned pale.

Exam takers might set a virtual role model, but everyone knows that the template for this role model is Mr. Zhao.

And throughout history, the exam questions for the imperial examination's final stage were required to be included in the annals of historical records and official documents.

This is like nailing Zhao Xuanji to a pillar of shame and whipping his corpse.

With a cold gaze, Zhao Xuanji looked at Li Chen who was seated high on the throne.

Li Chen's eyes were calm, like a vast ocean.

He had long been clear that once he ascended the throne, he would inevitably set off with the rusty machine of the Qin Empire running at full speed. For a country to accelerate its operations, it needed more than just a qualified monarch; it required the cooperation of capable ministers.

But capable officials are also classified.
