"Read yours, then yours; read yours, then yours; read yours, then yours!" Uchiha Takashi sat in his office, frantically reviewing each document.
He now utterly loathed the Senju Clan. He, the king, was already incredibly busy during the college entrance exams, and now the Senju Clan was adding to his troubles.
All sorts of news were constantly being sent to the capital from the border—from the northwest, southwest, and southeast—one after another, he couldn't possibly read them all.
Unfortunately, all of this piled up during the college entrance examination period, completely overwhelming the workload of the monarch of this country. Even working overtime until late at night, he still couldn't finish his work.
If he hadn't forcibly brought in three Nara Clan oxen and horses to work for him, he probably would have had to work 24/7.
"I quit!" Finally driven to the brink of madness, Uchiha Takashi slammed the documents onto the table, slumped back in his chair, and adopted a posture of complete resignation.
"Clan leader, stop talking like that. Let's hurry up and finish revising the documents. There are still hundreds more to revise," a Uchiha clansman with huge dark circles under his eyes tugged at Uchiha Takashi's collar.
Uchiha Takashi shifted in his chair a couple of times. "Ugh, I don't want this! Why is it that after becoming the monarch of the country, my living conditions have actually worsened? I want a leisurely life, I want to go out and have fun! I don't want to sit here like I'm in prison!"
As Uchiha Takashi spoke, he began to feel that what he was saying made perfect sense, so he stood up and said, "Isn't it the college entrance exams right now? I'll go take a stroll around the exam halls in the capital, rest a bit, and then come back to deal with the documents later."
The Nara Clan and Uchiha Clan, responsible for revising the documents. "..." Alright, more overtime.
"How many times has this happened? How many times has the clan leader run away this month?" a member of the Uchiha asked.
A member of the Nara Clan: "It seems to be the fourth time. There have been so many times that I can't remember exactly, but it's the fourth time this week. It happens almost every day."
It's been like this from the first day before the college entrance exam until the last day. Forget it, let's get back to revising the documents; we're about to have even more documents to deal with."
While the two were chatting, Uchiha Takashi had already jumped out of the window. The moment he landed, the Uchiha guards standing watch at the door were already used to it.
At first, I might have said a few words of advice, but now, well, I just close my eyes and I see nothing, I know nothing.
Uchiha Takashi curled the corners of his lips into a smile, then strode towards the nearest exam hall.
As he approached the entrance to the college entrance examination hall, he saw many people standing outside praying. Uchiha Takashi looked at this scene and felt a deep sense of familiarity with it.
Back when he took the college entrance exam, his family stood outside praying for him. But later, one by one, his family members passed away, and he suffered too many blows, turning into a complete shut-in, living off his meager savings as a recluse.
He usually wrote novels to earn a living, until one day he went out on a whim and was hit by a truck, or rather, a dump truck, and then he ended up in this world for fourteen years.
Now, seeing this familiar scene again filled him with a deep sense of emotion.
At this moment, in front of the college entrance examination venue, a large group of Konoha Military Police Force members were constantly blocking every parent or relative trying to enter.
"This is the college entrance exam hall. To ensure fairness and impartiality, no one is allowed to enter!" The leader of the Nara Clan declared righteously, "For the sake of fairness and impartiality in the college entrance exam, no one is allowed to enter, absolutely no one!"
However, before he could finish speaking, he suddenly caught a glimpse of someone trying to go in out of the corner of his eye. He was about to stop them, but the words caught in his throat.
Because he recognized the person as Uchiha Takashi, Uchiha Takashi now leisurely walking down another passage, intending to go in and wander around.
The surrounding crowd also noticed Uchiha Takashi at this moment, and they all pointed at Uchiha Takashi and ran to the Konoha Military Police Force, where they stared at the members of the Konoha Military Police Force.
The meaning couldn't be clearer: Look over there, look over there! Don't block me here! Look, that guy over there is almost going in, hurry up and stop him!
The Konoha Military Police Force merely glanced in that direction, and upon recognizing Uchiha Takashi, they immediately turned away without moving an inch.
This scene stunned everyone present. Wait, why can he go in, but we can't? Are you applying double standards?
They watched helplessly as Uchiha Takashi walked in without any hindrance, and no one stopped him.
So one of them immediately ran up to the leader of the Konoha Military Police Force and protested. "Look at that guy, why was he allowed in while we were all kept out? Didn't you say no one is allowed to come in?"
The leader of the Konoha Military Police Force scoffed, "That's different, how can they be the same?"
"What's the difference? This is double standards! You said no one could get in, but now you're letting anyone with power and influence in? Doesn't your Konoha Military Police Force claim to be absolutely impartial and fearless of the powerful?"
Why was that person allowed to go in? It just goes to show you're all bullies who prey on the weak!
The leader of the Konoha Military Police Force raised an eyebrow. "Ha, what are you talking about? He's different. You'll understand once you're in his position."
The person in the crowd who heard this was struck dumb, feeling as if the sky had collapsed. "Even the Uchiha fears his power? Just how powerful is he?"
The sky over the Land of Light, how many years has it been before it darkens? Pear blossoms fall before your window, a beauty in a painting laments in her boudoir...
"Hey, hey, what are you singing here? Singing, singing, singing! Have you even understood the details before you start singing? Did you not understand what I was saying at all?"
The leader of the Konoha Military Police Force explained, "The college entrance exam is designed to ensure fairness and impartiality, and he is absolutely capable of guaranteeing fairness and impartiality. We can confirm that anyone could cheat, but he is impossible."
The person in the crowd immediately became dissatisfied. "What makes you say that? Just because he has a high position? Does having a high position guarantee such treatment? Wouldn't someone with a high position seek benefits for their descendants? Does the decision regarding cheating differ simply because of differences in position?"
The Nara Clan member, unable to bear it any longer, slowly walked over and whispered in the crowd's ear, "He is the ruler of our country. He's the one who set up the college entrance exam. Do you think he would cheat? Would he have any reason to cheat?"
"What? It's over!"
The moment that person heard those words, he died instantly.
Accidentally trespassing into the imperial palace...
