When Li Shimin spoke, all the ministers were very quiet.

At this moment, when Li Shimin suddenly mentioned the bet, he was surprised. Did the emperor still bet?

So many people became interested and looked like they wanted to hear the details.

Chen Zhengtai in the crowd wanted to laugh in his heart. This is different from the emperor he remembers!

Shouldn't the emperor be like a statue of a god, always high above like a puppet, and then cherish words like gold, as if he only has divinity and no humanity?

The mentor also has to tell people about this private bet!

Li Shimin raised his eyes at this moment and searched for Chen Zhengtai in the corner.

He looked at Chen Zhengtai, and Hao Xianggui, the Duke of Iiyama Prefecture, had never left Chen Zhengtai, which made Chen Zhengtai feel that he was being missed by the thief and was under a lot of pressure.

Li Shimin laughed and said, "Chen Zhengtai, come, you say... what I said?"

As soon as he said this, several censors were eager to try and wanted to step forward to correct Li Shimin. How could they be the emperor bet with others? Such a joke.

But Li Shimin looked around and only paid attention to Chen Zhengtai!

Chen Zhengtai, who was named in public, had to bite the bullet and said, "Yes, students remember that there was a bet."

Li Shimin continued to laugh and said, "You all must think that I am having sex with my disciples. This bet happens to be related to today's announcement. If one of the nine juren selected by Chen Zhengtai in high school, I will entrust him to his military position and then entrust him to be the prince's servant."

When the ministers heard this, some people burst into laughter.

Who knows what those nine people are? Is there such a good way to take the Jinshi exam?

But...one of the nine people might really make this kid miss one of his luck?

Chen Zhengtai was a little confused, but the bet seemed to be the case.

What Chen Zhengtai did not expect was that Li Shimin continued: "But if these nine people were not won, Chen Zhengtai promised to make profits for the white salt that had lasted three months in the palace and to build a new palace for the Supreme Emperor."

"I... I haven't said that." Chen Zhengtai was anxious and subconsciously said.

Your uncle, you are shameless, have I said it?

This pit is a bit big! He still underestimated Li Shimin. If he had known this, he would have signed the document!

Li Shimin smiled and saw Chen Zhengtai denying it, he was not angry, but said with a smile: "Is that right? Maybe I remember it wrongly. I am older and have less energy than before. Well, just pretend that there is no such bet. I was so happy that I was so happy that I had to feel wronged and let the Emperor continue to suffer in this old palace. Alas..."

A long sigh revealed the melancholy that middle-aged people often have.

Chen Zhengtai: "…"

Seeing everyone's eyes looking at him, Chen Zhengtai suddenly felt like he was committing a crime.

Is it my fault that the Supreme Emperor’s bad life?

Is it my fault that Li Jiancheng was cut down during the Xuanwu Gate Incident?

Chen Zhengtai coughed: "Huh?"

Changsun Wuji, who was standing beside Li Shimin, coughed and said, "Chen Zhengtai, don't make strange noises, be careful of your misconduct."

Chen Zhengtai said, "The Changsun Gongming Jian, the reason why I am like this is because it is a coincidence that after being reminded by Your Majesty, I really remembered that there was such a bet."

After hearing this, Li Shimin raised his thick eyebrows and said with a happy look: "If you forget it, it won't be a big deal. I'll just joke with you."

Chen Zhengtai said with pride: "Teacher, the students remember clearly, clearly."

Li Shimin smiled.

For money, he was worried about his hair. Now the disaster is right in front of him. He has a lot of things to do, but the problem of the Supreme Emperor must be dealt with immediately. The father and son cannot live in the same palace! The harem is a strict place, and the Supreme Emperor has many concubines. If there is any gossip, it will be inappropriate.

Although the disaster has passed, there is no food in the field and no money in his hands. Li Shimin is finally uneasy.

The Turks were becoming more and more restless. If they did not give a blow, they were afraid that as soon as winter began, the people in the border towns would be slaughtered.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin felt sad and angry. I made some small money from Chen Zhengtai for the sake of the people of the world. Well, after the national treasury is abundant and the treasury is enriched, I will find a reward to repay him.

Li Shimin's heart was constantly moving, but he didn't show any expression. He then looked around and said, "I wonder how many children of the people participated in the imperial examination here?"

As soon as he asked, dozens of ministers immediately stood up, including Hao Xianggui, the Duke of Iiyama Prefecture who was also standing in the corner with Chen Zhengtai.

Li Shimin's eyes fell on someone and said in surprise: "Does Lu Dalang actually have children participating in the imperial examination?"

The one who Li Shimin called Lu Dalang was Lu Chengqing, Duke of Fanyang County. Lu Chengqing was from the Lu family of Fanyang, and was the direct descendant of the Dafang family. He inherited the title of his father, Duke of Fanyang County. He is now appointed as the Minister of the Civil Affairs Department and is a very elegant person!

He respectfully bowed to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, the son Lu Guangsheng of the dog has participated in the Jinshi exam this year."

Li Shimin couldn't help but sigh: "Fanyang Lu family was passed down from poetry and books. Since Lu Zhi of the Eastern Han Dynasty, children of all generations have been eager to learn and write elegantly, and their works are rich, which made people praise him. Since Dalang's son participated in the Jinshi exam, he is here to win."

Li Shimin did not deliberately compliment Lu Chengqing, but the Lu family of Fanyang is indeed famous. I don’t know how many great scholars have produced over the past few hundred years.

Lu Chengqing said modestly: "I ordered my son to participate in the Jinshi exam, which is only to sharpen his character. Your Majesty boasted so much that I feel ashamed."

Although he spoke humbly, he smiled calmly, as if he was sure to win.

Hao Xianggui, the Duke of Iiyama Prefecture, felt cold when he heard this. He didn't expect that there were so many aristocratic families who participated in the Jinshi exam. In this way, my son probably would be cold. He had been staring at Chen Zhengtai, but now he was in a mess and looked dazed for a moment.

Lu Chengqing continued: "The Lu family only elected a dog son to participate in the Jinshi exam, of course, it is not as good as Erpigou County Duke's determination to win."

Chen Zhengtai didn't know much after hearing this. He was only concerned about the announcement of the test results.

But a hint of embarrassment flashed across Li Shimin's face. This was a satirical mockery of Chen Zhengtai. But when I thought about it carefully, I felt that I was a satirizing myself. Humph, this Fanyang Lu family is not a good thing either.

Originally, Li Shimin called Lu Chengqing Lu Dalang to show his intimacy, but now he turned aside and stopped talking.

At this time, Li Shimin looked down from the city tower and saw that there were already a crowd of people under the city tower, and people coming from hearing the news were endless.

Of course, there are many juren who participated in the scientific examination, and in addition, there are many people who are interested in the news.

This year, the most impressive view of the list is, and because of this, the scene is very grand.

Hao Chujun shuttled through the crowd, sweating profusely, and finally squeezed in front of him.

He looked around, but saw that Li Yi's mansion had also come on the other side, and several other classmates disappeared.

Li Yifu greeted Hao Chujun with a smile.

After all, the two of them had been together day and night, so Hao Chujun also smiled at him. After bowing to each other, although there were crowds of people around him, Hao Chujun could not help but say, "Did you receive the book from the benefactor the day before yesterday?"

Li Yifu smiled bitterly: "I received it."

"how?"

"I replied to the book and said I was sick." Li Yifu hesitated for a moment and said again: "I am afraid that the invitation to compile the book is the Hongmen Banquet."

When Hao Chujun heard that Li Yifu was not invited to the Chen family, he felt relieved and his guilt in his heart slightly relieved. He was too complicated for Chen Zhengtai. On the one hand, he felt that this benefactor was not too bad, but on the other hand, this guy was a bit cheating.

Why did you get him?

Li Yifu paused for a moment and suddenly said, "Brother Hao, do you think we have done too much?"

"We have our future, how can we use our future to make trouble with our benefactor?" Hao Chujun said with a blank expression: "I have already made plans. I will probably not be able to win this time. It is reported that many children from aristocratic families participated in this Jinshi exam. At that time, I plan to pack my luggage and return to the old house in Anzhou and study hard. What are your plans?"

Li Yifu drooped his head and thought to himself, do you still have a chance? He is just a poor family. If he fails this time, can he continue to study?

Thinking of his father's earnest expectations and his unknown future, Li Yifu reluctantly smiled and said, "Let's find another way out then. It's strange that I have not seen my benefactor for many days, and I dreamed of him last night."

Hao Chujun pursed his lips, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Yes, it's so weird, sometimes I miss you!

But then he looked stern and said with an unforgiving look: "What are we getting in that school? Although the benefactor taught us a few lessons in the school, it is mostly cliché. I don't think he has any cleverness. Brother, we are pursuing fame and fortune to support the world in the future, and we must not be kind to women."
