Chapter Three Hundred and Two: Big Rejoice(1/2)
In fact, Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling came late.
Early in the morning, Li Shimin excitedly summoned all the ministers here.
Of course, he deliberately did not call Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling, which was why he understood these two.
After all, these two are important officials and are very popular. How could Li Shimin not know that their son went to take the exam?
What's more, Changsun Chong is still his nephew!
But... Li Shimin knew the virtues of these two boys very well.
How could I pass the exam?
To put it bluntly, Li Shimin felt that it was already very courageous that these two boys who were in trouble with Chang'an could take the exam.
No need to care about the others.
He deliberately did not call Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji, but he knew that these two people came to pay their respects.
In fact, after the list was released outside, the Ministry of Rites immediately copied the list, and then the Minister of Rites Dou Lu Kuan personally sent it to the palace.
But this Lord Shangshu is old after all, and it is impossible for him to run in one go. On the contrary, his message speed is far less than that of those little officials with convenient legs.
Of course, although Li Shimin was eager to know the result, he didn't mind waiting for a while.
It would be fine if I knew it later, so let the people of the world know that even the emperor may not be as fast as ordinary people. This makes it seem that the list text will never be affected by the palace.
The ministers sat down with each other in a whisper, whispering about who will take the exam this year and who will be the most confident.
Your Majesty attaches great importance to it, and this imperial examination is so big. Seeing that the end of the year is approaching, it is not an exaggeration to say that this imperial examination is shocking the court and the people. It naturally attracted everyone's attention. Even the important officials in the court cannot avoid the common people.
Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji entered the hall and gave the ceremony first.
Li Shimin was a little surprised that Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji came to him on his own initiative.
However, Li Shimin cheered up and smiled and said, "You two families are good, come here, give me a seat."
The two thanked each other and sat down.
They all looked humble.
When the others saw them, they all looked nervous.
Cheng Yaojin was actually here, and his son was also studying, but Cheng Chumo was in the science class. Although he was very hardworking, Yaojin regretted it. This stupid son insisted on studying science himself, probably because the young men in science did a few chemistry experiments, which was very cool, and then he was stupid and had to study science.
Cheng Yaojin didn't care, just learn it, but how could he know... he actually got the imperial examination.
Seeing that the future wind direction is about to change, some people still don’t know what they realize later. But Cheng Yaojin knows it better than anyone else. Although he seems very rough, he is actually very clear in his heart.
The world is about to change. If the Cheng family cannot change in time, it is already a dazzling family background with its military achievements. After one or two generations, it may fall. If it ends like that, it will hurt your heart and soul to think about it.
Therefore, whenever Cheng Yaojin meets people, he seems to have owed him money, full of resentment, and is the same for others and Li Shimin.
Can you understand the feeling of returning to the capital from Yangzhou and then discovering that your own treasury was burned?
The people who burned his treasury are here.
Your Majesty, you want an imperial examination and a state examination, why don’t you tell me early? Do you know that I suddenly learned the news and then found out that my son was studying physics and chemistry?
Li Shimin pretended to be fine, and his attitude was annoying. It seemed that as long as he pretended that he had not burned the Cheng family, the Cheng family's treasury would not be too much.
Li Erlang is very thick-skinned.
At this time, Li Shimin continued to smile and said, "The Yongzhou Prefecture Examination List has just been sent, and the two Qing families have arrived. Haha, it's too early to come, so it's better to come by coincidence."
Although he smiled and even wanted to relieve his discomfort, he still seemed a little embarrassed.
However, it was obvious that Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji looked like they didn't care.
Li Shimin felt that he might have thought too much, so he was excited: "Come on the list, I will take a look first."
The Minister of Rites Dou Lu Kuan, somehow, had a somewhat unnatural expression.
Zhang Qian took Doulu Kuan and brought the quotation from the palace and sent it to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin seemed very excited, opened the list and looked down.
Suddenly, the first name that caught my eye... Deng Jian.
Deng Jian…
This name looks familiar.
Uh... Is there anyone named Deng Jian in the family?
There seems to be no impression.
This is strange.
Could it be that this person is not a child of a large clan?
After all, there are only a handful of people in the court with the surname Deng.
Li Shimin couldn't help but be shocked.
Could this person be a poor family?
This is amazing. I was born in a poor family and was able to be ranked first in Yongzhou Prefecture.
After a little shocked in Li Shimin, he continued to watch.
Most of the names inside cannot be called.
Just looking at the surname, you can actually get a glimpse of it.
then……
Changsun Chong...
Li Shimin was stunned.
He looked suspicious and even opened his eyes wide involuntarily.
Li Shimin thought for a moment that he had read it wrong.
The surname Changsun is rare, and this family is only one family, and there is no other semicolon. There is only one person named Changsun Chong in the world.
His nephew...
Li Shimin's eyes suddenly showed doubts.
How is that possible!
I feel disgusted by that guy who is like a dog on weekdays. If it weren't for his nephew or his own son, Changsun Wuji, who grew up with him since childhood, I would have wanted to go up and slap him a few times.
Such a person...can...
And continue to go back...
He saw another strange name, Fang Yiai...
Fang Yiai is only nine years old at this time.
At the age of nine... it is also said to be infamous, just this...
Read more.
Cheng Chumo...
Cheng Chumo ranked very low, with more than 160.
Li Shimin looked up incrediblely and looked at Cheng Yaojin with a strange look.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin also opened his big eyes like a copper bell and looked at him resentfully.
Li Shimin seemed to have burned a little, quickly staggered his eyes and continued to look like he was fine.
But... Li Shimin saw these three names in a row, but his face pulled down.
What is the purpose of the state examination? It is to allow everyone in the world to pass the examination to gain fame.
But Li Shimin never thought that some of the outstanding children he was familiar with were not only not the test, but most of the test-takers were simply a group of people who could not make the list.
Let’s talk about Cheng Chumo. This kid is just like his father, just like a fool, and can he win like this?
This made Li Shimin think that perhaps... someone took action to completely destroy the fairness of the state test.
One is the son of the Secretariat, the son of the Minister of Personnel, and the other is the son of the General of the Supervisor.
When Li Shimin thought of this, his face became gloomy. He looked up at Dou Lu Kuan: "Is this list correct?"
Dou Lukuan was under great pressure. He had read the list first. He thought it was strange at the time, but he couldn't find the reason no matter how he thought about it. At this time, he had to bite the bullet and say, "Go back to Your Majesty, it's right."
Li Shimin finally asked the big question mark in his heart: "So, why are Changsun Chong, Fang Yiai, and Cheng Chumo all on the list?"
Fang Xuanling: "..."
Changsun Wuji: "..."
They were originally ready to wait until the answer was revealed, and some of their speeches were nothing more than saying that the dog was lucky. It was really a coincidence, maybe it was because of luck or something like that.
How could I know... His Majesty said this directly.
This sentence is a bit hurtful!
To be continued...
