After a long time, Di Renjie woke up and asked, "Where is this Wang Hua?"

I just saw it, and through this postscript, I realized that the young man’s name was Wang Hua.

The housekeeper was happy and said, "Alang, he has left long ago."

Di Renjie felt sad and lost when he heard this, but immediately wrote a memorial, and brought these two paintings back to Luoyang and handed them over to Wu Zetian.

At this time, the father-in-law read out this memorial from Di Renjie.

After reading it, everyone looked at each other, as if they had heard a legendary story. The Tang Dynasty was not short of geniuses, and the most famous one was the four heroes of the early Tang Dynasty. But even Wang Bo wrote "Preface to the Tengwang Pavilion" and was twenty-nine years old. No matter which one of them, he might write poems and essays at a age of 12 or 13, but he would never write this shocking song "Yan Ge Xing" at the age of 12 or 13.

It seems that all ministers don’t believe it anymore.

Wu Zetian smiled, obviously this story also made her feel good. Maybe she held the poetry meeting this time because Di Renjie wrote this memorial. She pressed her mouth again, and she understood it with her father-in-law, and opened the young man's painting. As Di Renjie said, maybe this painting has a deep foundation, but it may not be unmatched by these ministers. But you must know that this was done by a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy, and it also came from a poor family. The most important thing was that his idea was the same as Di Renjie's idea. Most people thought that it was a person-oriented person.

This sentence also attracted Wu Zetian's thoughts. At this time, Wu Zetian was approaching his twilight years, and his vicious personality began to change and his methods became softer.

In addition to the two paintings of the young man, there is another one, which was painted by Shangguan Wan'er. A young man with a flowing appearance by the river was painting attentively. There were four officials next to him, with his face vaguely looking like Di Renjie and the other four. He also wrote a poem on the painting:

Whose young man is painting by the river?

The green grass brings dew and green dew, and the orchid brings autumn frost.

Dan pen dances with dragon and snake, and the character "图" contains pearls.

Everyone woke up and asked the boy, but the crowd was already in a state of vagueness.

This poem is also quite neat. It is not uncommon for Shangguan Wan'er to come from Shangguan Wan'er. No matter what kind of woman Shangguan Wan'er is, she felt curious and even admired her after hearing this. Therefore, after seeing this memorial, she drew this painting and wrote this poem, which is understandable. But no one noticed her poems and paintings now. All the ministers stretched their heads long and looked at these two paintings, as well as the poems on them.

The hall was quiet and silent for a long time.

After a long time, Wu Zetian broke the silence. She said, "I thought I had almost captured all the talents in the world, but there was such a young man under his nose. He didn't find out. I don't know who was wrong."

Wu Zetian killed innocent people indiscriminately, and the prime minister alone asked her to kill nineteen people. But she also valued talents. She once said that "the imperial edicts that those who have been promoted to the ninth rank of civil and military at home and abroad will be ordered to boot up themselves." "The officials are so grateful to boot up themselves." You said that I have the ability to be an official, and as long as it is not too much, I will let you do it. This is the unprecedented "examination system".

At the same time, all the people recommended by the ten governors were personally introduced. Of course, this was also her use of abusive titles to win the hearts of the people. However, a large number of talents did stand out. Those who were qualified would be retained, and those who were unqualified would be dismissed or killed.

In addition to these two methods to attract talents, she also further developed the imperial examination system, especially attaching importance to the Jinshi. A large number of new talents were pouring in so that she would not kill many talents and lead to the collapse of the court.

The question of Wu Zetian was beyond the reach of officials. But Wu Zetian said this sentence harshly enough. You should know how many scholars can let go of everything for this sentence.

The subjects of scholars in the Tang Dynasty were divided into scholars, Jinshi, Junshi, Mingjing, Mingfa, Mingshu, Mingshu, Mingsuan and other subjects, other medical, divination, star, Xiang, Qin, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Among them, the subjects of the Mingjing and Jinshi who specialize in poetry and essays were the most important. The number of people admitted to Jinshi in the Tang Dynasty was as few as a few, and the number was as many as three or forty. The first name of Jinshi was, the first name of Jinshi, was also called Tanhua, but it was not the third place that people usually called. Especially the subjects of miscellaneous subjects, from now on, it was a driving force for the development of culture in the early Tang Dynasty. In the first year of Yongzhen of Shunzong, Wang Bei,

When Wang Shuwen and Sima were in charge of the two lords and eighth Sima, Wang Wei was a doctor of calligraphy who wrote Li characters and Wang Shuwen was a doctor of chess who played Go. They were all born in miscellaneous subjects and were afraid that their peers would reveal their old backgrounds, so they abolished miscellaneous subjects after taking office, but all palaces with miscellaneous subjects. This incident made the feudal scholars and officials think that from then on, hundreds of acrobatics were not confused with classics in the official career, and the scholarship of the articles was good. In fact, science and technology were no longer guaranteed and paid attention to by the state power, which was also one of the reasons why China's science and technology began to go downhill and gradually lag behind the world.

There are three ways to take the exam in the Tang Dynasty: one is recommended by the school and named Student; the other is recommended by the prefectures and counties as the township tribute and Juren, which is for the tribute, such as Yu Jiasanlang; and the other is called the ritual examination directly by the court. The so-called scholars, Juren, Ming Jing, and Jinshi in the Tang Dynasty only show the similarities and differences of their origins, and they are not like the Ming and Qing dynasties, which are different levels of the imperial examination.

The imperial examinations in the Tang Dynasty were not as many as those in the Ming and Qing dynasties. The admissions were not entirely read by a few poems. Instead, there were no officials and celebrities bragging and recommending them in society to pass the exam. Therefore, those who seek officials must go to Chang'an to find connections and go to the subordinates of the officials and ministers to find a way out. Some people lived in Chang'an for many years but did not get any chance, such as Du Fu. So there was a trend called "seeking friends" at that time, which was to hold their works on their heads when the officials and celebrities went out, and knelt on the side of the road to read them. They were taken away and fond of them, even if they had a way out. For example, Li Bai.

Now that Wu Zetian said, the top scholar may not be the first, but Wang Hua took advantage of the imperial examination and the Jinshi was as reliable as a stance.

Even if Wang Hua knew about it, he might not have participated in the imperial examination. Wu Zetian is a little better now, but she is still killing people. Later, there was the Wei family rebellion. Therefore, Wang Hua may not have become interested in the current officialdom.

After hearing Wu Zetian's words, many ministers claimed to be in vain. But they didn't expect that someone would lower his head and his eyes became a little resentful. Song Zhiwen was jealous. Today, His Majesty held this poem banquet. Oh, it turned out to be the place to praise this young man named Wang Hua.

Wu Zetian would not pay attention to his ideas, mainly making her like this. One is his intention, and the other is that he was poor, which reminded Mrs. Wu of her childhood experience. Since the minister said this, she issued an edict and sent an envoy to Yanshi County to find this young man named Wanghua. However, a change occurred in the middle. Wanghua was not in Yanshi County, but in Gong County.

At that time, he ran to Yanshi County because he wanted to paint, but he was afraid that he would see it nearby, so he beat him up again. So he rode the cow to Yanshi County, more than 20 miles away. Later, he heard that the Tang Dynasty army went on a war and rode for more than ten miles again. The man who thought of a cow herding kid, and actually ran to a place more than 30 miles away. As a result, he flipped through the entire Yanshi County, but he couldn't find a boy named Wang Hua who was the one who was Shanchang Drawing and writing.

Things that cannot be obtained are always good. Because they can't find them, they make people feel even more clever. Especially at this time, people still believed in the legend of ghosts and gods. So this incident spread all the time in the capital. Many people said that Di Renjie met a god that day. Finally, after being spread, even Wu Zetian began to suspicion.

This was a beautiful thing, and Wang Hua was also out of gratitude at that time. But he did not expect to arouse someone's jealousy. Song Zhiwen came to Zhang Yizhi's mansion and said to Zhang Yizhi: "Zhang Gongfeng, the young man who painted the day before yesterday, what do you think?"

Zhang Yizhi said: "It's amazing."

This was originally a living legend, just like a myth.

Song Zhiwen shook his head.

Zhang Yizhi asked strangely: "Sir Song, why did you shake your head? Is there something wrong?"

Song Zhiwen asked again: "Zhang Chongfeng, do you think there is this person?"

Although Zhang Yizhi is a playboy, his head is not stupid. He thought for a while and said, "There should be this person. After all, if he is a god or ghost, why would he accept the money from Mr. Di?"

"That's right. But I heard a saying among the people that if divided by talents, Zhang Gongfeng is just a wonderful product, and this Wang Hua truly belongs to a divine product."

Speaking of this, he didn't say anything further.

The reason why Zhang Yizhi is today is not only because he looks beautiful, but also because he is the most powerful in his bed, making old lady Wu Zetian happy. She has been favored for so long, but she is also some wisdom.

Zhang Yizhi was stunned at first, and then he thought that when Wu Zetian mentioned this boy that day, his eyes showed a satisfied look. If the emperor had a fancy to this boy, Zhang Yizhi suddenly had this idea. What would happen?

Seeing Zhang Yizhi's eyes first, he was confused, then worried, and finally he was a little fierce. Song Zhiwen showed a smile on his lips. He gave a deep bow and said goodbye.
