After rebirth, I became the stupid son of the Hou family

The Xuanwu Dynasty still attached great importance to the imperial examination. Even for this imperial examination, the emperor put in enough effort.

As soon as the palace examination was over, the emperor led all the civil and military officials and the newly promoted Jinshi to Qionglinwan in the Imperial Garden to attend the Qionglin Banquet.

The emperor also specially arranged for the top three candidates and the examiner to sit next to him. He looked at the new Jinshi of this year and said to them:

"My dear friends, today is a very happy day. From now on, you will enter the official career and become officials in the court. I am very happy today. I especially like to see you young people together and see you. , even I feel a lot younger. Zhuangyuanlang, I once heard the prince say that not only are you good at writing articles, but reciting poems and writing lyrics is also your strong point. Why don't you show it today so that I and all my dear friends can also Long experience."

Seeing that the emperor was talking about him, the number one scholar, Jiang Chen quickly clasped his fists and said to the emperor:

"Your Majesty, Jiang Chen is not talented. Although he occasionally writes poems, he is really afraid of making the emperor laugh."

The emperor looked at him and said:

"Jiang Chen, so to speak, you are preparing to resist the decree and not give me this face."

At this time, King Wei, who was sitting opposite him, saw Jiang Chen's evasion and thought that his literary talent was exaggerated, so he wanted to make him look ugly at the banquet.In order to let out the bad breath in his heart, he said to Jiang Chen:

"Master Zhuangyuan, the emperor has given orders. Are you trying to refute the emperor's face by pushing back and forth like this?"

The prince sitting at the top saw King Wei saying this and knew that he wanted to find trouble with Jiang Chen.

Because on the way back from Northern Xinjiang, the two people did not talk to each other, and the King of Wei always felt that Jiang Chen was his, so he took the opportunity to make Jiang Chen embarrassed in front of everyone. He quickly said to the King of Wei:

"King Wei, the difference between these words is that the number one scholar is just being polite to the emperor in a humble way. He did not say that he would not do it. It is just your own understanding that is different."

King Wei said to the prince mercilessly:

"Brother Emperor, I just said a few words, and you defend the No. [-] Scholar like this. Are you really afraid that he won't be able to write?"

Jiang Chen saw the Crown Prince and the King of Wei quarreling with each other, and was afraid that they would cause a dispute because of him, so he quickly said to the Emperor:

"Your Majesty, even though I'm not talented, I just asked the Emperor to give me a question, and Jiang Chen made a fool of himself."

The emperor saw that he agreed so happily. He looked around and said to Jiang Chen:

"Jiang Aiqing, how about you improvise a song based on the theme of today's Qionglin Banquet?"

Jiang Chen quickly raised his hands towards the emperor and said:

"I respectfully abide by the Emperor's will."

Jiang Chen glanced sideways at King Wei, thinking that he was trying every means to make himself look embarrassed, but he refused to give him this opportunity.

In his mind, he immediately searched for a poem written by Wen Tianxiang when he was admitted to the first prize and went to the Qionglin Banquet.

In the same scene, I happened to take it and use it.At this time, the emperor had ordered people to prepare pens, inks, paper and inkstones.

Jiang Chen thought for a moment, then picked up his pen and started writing.

"Qionglin Banquet"

Following the imperial edict, he was promoted to official position.

Come back and look at the sky.

The clouds are covered with five-color talisman flags,

A thousand officials wearing rings are exposed.

The Yanxi coincidentally coincides with the Cow Girl Festival,

The light of Luan Zhang reflects on the wall.

Dedicate poems to Chen Yayu and minister affairs,

Seeing that Gengge's weather is still good.

After Jiang Chen finished writing, the eunuch waiting beside him presented the poem he had written to the emperor.

The emperor took it, read it aloud.A few poems describe the current scene vividly.

The people below felt very good when they heard the emperor personally read Jiang Chen's poem.Everyone gave him warm applause.

The emperor looked at Jiang Chen and said:

"Jiang Chen, it seems that I made a wise move by selecting you as the number one scholar. A few lines of a poem vividly described the scene of the Qionglin Banquet. Yes, very good."

King Wei and Prime Minister Hu Gao saw that instead of giving Jiang Chen a hard time, they actually allowed him to expose himself in front of the emperor.

Even Jiang Feng, who was far away from them, looked at them from time to time.

I saw the prince saying to the emperor:

"Father, Jiang Chen is not only good at writing poems, but he is also excellent at writing lyrics. When another day comes, I will bring some of the poems he wrote to my father. Then I will ask my father to read them."

The emperor looked at Jiang Chen in front of him and felt more and more that not only were his poems and articles excellent, but his appearance was also majestic and refined, and he couldn't help but feel fond of him.

When King Wei saw that the emperor was so interested in Jiang Chen, he was very unhappy in his heart.
