"Huh..." As soon as the voice came out, Wu Yuchen unconsciously let out a breath, and his mood was relaxed.

"The second place in the palace examination, Pei Hongyu, conferred on Chao Yilang, the official servant of the sixth grade."

"Testing flowers in the palace, ancient style, conferring on Cheng Yilang, the official follow the sixth rank."

"Second-A in the Palace Examination, Duan Liuyun, conferred on Feng Yilang, the official servant of the sixth rank."

"Second-class in the palace examination, awarded to Wen, awarded to Tong Zhilang, official from the sixth rank."

……

After the canonization was completed, several eunuchs next to them handed the canonization edict and the seal letter bestowed by the emperor to them.

Everyone clasped their hands and said in unison: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"

When several poor students of Bailu Academy held the seal in their hands, tears rolled in their eyes.

How difficult it is to obtain this fame, how much hardship they have endured and how much they have suffered for this, only they themselves know in their hearts.

Those disciples from aristocratic families were much more indifferent, not because of how good their psychological quality is.

It's just that no matter what the result is, they can enjoy the shadow of their parents, so they don't take this reward so seriously.

This is the natural advantage given to them by their family background.

If it is placed before, they see it more lightly.

The aristocratic families are so intertwined that even if dynasties change, their status cannot be shaken.

This makes the fifth-rank and sixth-rank officials who are difficult for many children from poor families to reach in their lives, in their eyes, they are basically unworthy.

Therefore, Li Chengqian vigorously cracked down on the monopoly of the aristocratic family on the officialdom, and vigorously promoted education without discrimination throughout the country.

However, with Li Chengqian's support, Bailu Academy finally did not embarrass him.

This time, among the [-] Scholars, Bailu Academy has eight of them, and there are three of them, and Bailu Academy has two of them.

In this battle, Bailu Academy will surely be famous all over the world.

It can also be seen that the children of poor families attach great importance to the imperial examination.

The monopoly of the aristocratic family on knowledge will be completely broken from today.

"Wu Yuchen, come forward and be obedient."

A prestige-filled voice came from the front of the hall.

This sound pulled back all Jinshi's thoughts.

Wu Yuchen straightened his clothes and walked forward: "My humble minister Wu Yuchen, see Your Majesty."

After the royal seal, he can already call himself a humble minister in front of Li Shimin.

Li Shimin didn't get angry and arrogant, and said slowly: "Although you come from a poor family, you have the talent to govern the world. You come from a humble background but don't conceit yourself. You are full of knowledge but not arrogant. Regardless of your heart and beautiful writing, you are the number one scholar. You deserve it.

I have carefully studied your ten treatises on officials, but it is a policy for governing the world.

I think you have already understood the national conditions of officials in the Tang Dynasty. The purpose of resuming the imperial examination is to rectify the administration of officials and stabilize the foundation of the Tang Dynasty regime.

Don't let me down my hard work. "

Chapter 295 Mo Chou has no confidants in the future

Listening to Li Shimin's words, Wu Yuchen's face was serious, and a firm gaze appeared in his eyes, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best to serve my Great Tang Wanshi foundation, and I will die."

Li Shimin's face was filled with joy, "Okay, it's really something to be feared by future generations."

Immediately afterwards, he turned his head to the hall again, and said in an authoritative voice: "Pei Hongyu, come forward and speak."

Pei Hongyu's heart shook, he paced forward, and bowed deeply: "My humble minister Pei Hongyu, see Your Majesty."

Li Shimin looked at him and said softly: "Hong Yu, this is not the first time you and Zhen have met."

Pei Hongyu raised his head, eyes full of awe: "Return to Your Majesty, I have met you several times, and I will always remember your earnest teachings."

Li Shimin nodded: "In this imperial examination, you missed the title of leader and lost twice to Yu Chen. Are you convinced?"

Hearing this, Pei Hongyu's eyes twitched: "Weichen...Weichen is convinced."

"Hehe..." Li Shimin shook his head and smiled, "It's not necessarily true, I have already seen the answer in your eyes. But I can understand your feelings.

The talent between you and Yuchen is only between brothers.But your character is inferior to Yu Chen. "

Hearing this, Pei Hongyu's heart suddenly trembled: "Your Majesty, I don't understand."

Li Shimin said lightly: "Although you have talent, you are too arrogant. Yu Chen only thinks that the imperial examination is an imperial examination, but you want to use the imperial examination as a sharp weapon to control people.

With hatred in your heart and resentment in your head, how can you be superior to others, and how can you govern the country and the people.

You come from a family, but don't be restricted by the family, let go of the grudges in your heart.I believe you will go further and higher. "

Li Shimin's remarks broke the shackles in Pei Hongyu's heart.

At this moment, Pei Hongyu finally understood where he was defeated. He was arrogant and had no tolerance for others.

Recalling his article, although it is a good recipe for governing the world, the means are too extreme.

Pei Hongyu raised his head, looked at Li Shimin in a daze, his eyes fluttered, his hands trembled slightly, and he bowed deeply: "Your Majesty will keep this in mind, thank you for your grace."

"Excuse me." Li Shimin said softly, "You are all the talents of our Great Tang. I don't want you to go astray and become the sinners of the common people."

Li Chengqian looked up, and cheap father looked more and more like a king.

In this way, what he, the prince, did was even more carefree.

After talking with Wu Yuchen and Pei Hongyu, Li Shimin chatted with other Jinshi.

This canonization of the Golden Palace is considered to be over.

However, although the canonization is over, there is an extremely grand banquet tonight, the Qujiang Banquet.

The Qujiang Banquet was the largest banquet in the history of the Tang Dynasty, and it was held on the banks of the Qujiang River.

It got its name because the banquet was held in Qujiang Pavilion after Jinshi released the list.

Even Li Shimin will participate tonight, so it is grand and lively.

into the night...

On the banks of the Qujiang River, there are thousands of lanterns, illuminating the entire Qujiang River like daytime.

It was already very cold on the banks of the Qujiang River in late October, but this did not affect the mood of the banquet participants.

The people who came to play were shoulder to shoulder, and the streets on both sides of the Qujiang River were blocked.

This is the time when beauties proliferate in Chang'an City.

All the newly promoted Jinshi gather here, and maybe they can find a good husband.

In the Qujiang Pavilion, there are two seats.

One seat is Li Shimin and the important officials in the court.

One seat is Li Chengqian and imperial examination Jinshi.

In fact, Li Chengqian didn't like this lively scene, but his cheap father didn't follow him and insisted on dragging him here.

Li Chengqian had no choice but to follow.

But he really had nothing to talk to those old fellows, so he sat down with Jinshi.

During the banquet, all Jinshi toasted with Li Chengqian one after another. Li Chengqian was not only on the battlefield and in the court hall.

The rest of the time, it's extremely approachable.

Therefore, the Scholars are not restrained, and they feel relaxed and at ease when they are with Li Chengqian.

"Brother Yuchen." Pei Hongyu suddenly picked up the wine cup and stood up.

At this moment, everyone turned their attention to him.

Wu Yuchen looked at him, neither humble nor overbearing: "Brother Hongyu, what advice do you have?"

Pei Hongyu said solemnly: "Brother Yuchen, the number one scholar in high school, although you come from a poor family, I, Pei Hongyu, admire you as a man. I was narrow-minded before. Your Majesty is right. I had a prejudice against you.

But from now on, I, Pei Hongyu, will never judge others by my family background. "

After the words fell, he picked up the wine cup and drank it down.

At this moment, Li Chengqian could deeply feel that Pei Hongyu's eyes were less hostile and more sincere.

"Hehe..." Wu Yuchen picked up the wine cup before the case: "Brother Hongyu is serious, you and I have different backgrounds and different visions, which is also human nature, since you can say these words today.

Then I, Wu Yuchen, will make you my best friend. "

Wu Yuchen also drank it all in one gulp, feeling happy.

"Okay." Li Chengqian clapped his hands and praised, "I am really pleased that you can have such an idea. This kind of disposition is the pillar of my Tang Dynasty, and only then can I be worthy of great responsibility."

"Hahaha..." Dian Tan Tanhua Guyun immediately stood up and said, "In this situation, there is fine wine and pride, how can there be no poetry."

"Brother Gu's suggestion is very good, how about we follow the example of the ancients and have a "Qushui Liushang". "One of the seats suggested.

Some people echoed: "Good, very good, the flowing cup of water is just in line with today's banquet."

"Then what are we talking about?"

"I have a suggestion, since we have all passed the Jinshi examination and will take up positions in various places in the near future, why not use "how about seeing off as a topic". "

"Farewell, this question is very good, this question is very good."

"Then let's start, Qujiang Liuyin, today we won't return if we don't get drunk."

Someone puts a cup on a plate, puts the plate on the meander, and the plate turns with the water, floating lightly, and whoever turns it in front of it will hold the cup and drink freely.

"Stop, stop, stop..."

Looking at the porcelain plate floating in the water, everyone shouted.

In the end, the disk was transferred to Gu Yun's body.

Amidst the cheers of the crowd, Gu Yun wrote a poem.

It's not amazing, but it's also catchy.

I don't know if today's luck was too good or too bad, but the game never went to Li Chengqian's side.

Li Chengqian was also happy to relax, looking at the extremely lively Qujiang, it seemed that the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty was just around the corner.

"Your Highness, it's your turn."

With a shout, Li Chengqian, who was in deep thought, was dragged back.

When Li Shimin and all the civil and military officials heard Li Chengqian's poems, they all surrounded him.

Li Chengqian stood up, picked up the wine cup and drank it down in one gulp.

"Okay, I will compose a poem for you parents and officials who have gone to various places to contribute to our Great Tang."

Then he faced Qujiang and wrote a poem loudly: "Thousands of miles of yellow clouds and white sun, the north wind blows geese and snow."

As soon as this sentence came out, the audience fell silent, everyone's hearts were stirred, and a picture unconsciously unfolded in everyone's mind.

Thousands of miles of yellow sand covered the sky and the sun, and the sun lost its dazzling light like the setting sun. The north wind was howling, the snow was flying, and the geese were heading south.

The official career has not been smooth sailing.

At this moment, everyone turned their attention to Li Chengqian, expecting the next sentence.

Li Chengqian poured another cup of wine on his own, and continued: "Mo Chou has no confidant in the future, no one in the world knows the king."

Chapter 296 The Qujiang Pavilion Title Dispute

In Qujiang Pavilion, there are many Confucian masters, masters of poetry composing, and all-round talents in literature.

But when Li Chengqian's farewell poem came out, everyone was amazed, and people couldn't help but applaud.

Today, the local bureaucracy system in the Tang Dynasty has been corrupted. Officials protect each other, fill their pockets, and corrupt the law.

These newly promoted Jinshi are about to become official.

Although Li Shimin and Li Chengqian supported them, their careers were still difficult and dangerous.

They still have a long, hard way to go.
