Chapter 23 The Emperor reads the volume
"Good word!"
When Emperor Zhou Yao saw the paper, he was amazed by the flowing writing skills before he could read the content.
Wang Zhi was stunned. Your Majesty, this was copied by Grand Secretary Li himself. How can the handwriting not be good?
However, the emperor's impression of Yi Zi is very important. Of course, Wang Zhi won't say it anymore. He is not a straight man.
Zhou Yao continued to read: "Four years of war, fight against the barbarians. Don't forget your original intention and keep your mission in mind... What a strange proposition!"
Wang Zhi's eyes rolled and reminded: "Mr. Li also found it strange at that time, but after reading it, he was shocked. I believe Liu Xiu's literary talent is excellent!"
"Haha, you servant like to exaggerate."
Zhou Yao laughed and scolded, but didn't care about Wang Zhi's words. What literary accomplishments of Li Xueqin were shocked by a bad boy? What articles did he have never seen? What good poems can't be written?
Then, Zhou Yao began to look down, and after a while, there was no movement.
Wang Zhi bent down, but he couldn't see the emperor's expression. He could only guess secretly, as if it was similar to Grand Secretary Li's reaction?
Brother Yi should be fine...
At this time, the eunuch outside the study reported: "Report to Your Majesty, I heard of it and asked for a meeting."
"Hmm?" Zhou Yao came to his senses. In fact, he had finished reading it long ago. He put down the roll of paper at this time, and his face was obviously displeased: "Xuan."
Not long after, Wen Xuance walked in. After seeing the ceremony, he said the first sentence: "I, apologize!"
"My dear son, why are you guilty?"
Zhou Yao frowned slightly and said, "This old dog is moving fast enough!"
Wen Xuance still knelt down and said, "The old minister is not strict in discipline, and the descendants in the family do not distinguish between loyalty and treacherous. Recently, he was deceived by the traitor Xue Qing and brought him home, which made the old minister very frightened. Such a traitor and colluded with traitors, but the old minister was unable to take him down as soon as possible!"
Haha, Wang Zhi's mouth moved, and he secretly despised him. He pushed him so cleanly! Do you treat others as fools? You were almost killed by you. Now, if you don't discipline strictly, you want to push him to his offspring? If we have offspring, we won't be as terrified as you!
Emperor Zhou Yao did not show his emotions, but instead comforted him: "What is the fault of Wenxiong working hard for state affairs and not being aware of it? What's more, the Xue family's plan is not Wenxiong, don't you?"
Zhou Yao's eyes were very calm and seemed to have a slightly profound meaning.
However, Wen Xuance seemed to be unaware of it and was still blaming himself: "The salary of the king and the loyalty of the king. The Wen family can achieve this today all depends on the grace of the emperor. He will never forget it!"
This old fox! He always talks about the ancestor!
Wang Zhi was unhappy because after the emperor ascended the throne, these Jin Wang's party members were stumbling everywhere, especially Wen Xuance, which was like the combination of Jin Wang. As for the matter of Dongwu Hou, the Wen family would definitely not be able to escape.
At that time, Wang Zhi also hinted Liu Xiu not to bite him anymore and not to make things bigger, because the emperor did not want to pursue the matter, at least it is not the time yet.
But this old fox actually took the initiative to plead guilty. Is he testing the emperor or showing off his power?
Wang Zhi was not sure. Anyway, this old dog was not at ease, so why did he say the grace of the late emperor? If you love the late emperor so much, why don’t you follow the late emperor?
In short, Wang Zhi’s true love for the emperor, and only with the emperor can he have everything. In terms of loyalty, Eunuch Wang believes that no one can match it.
Then, the emperor advised him with kind words, so that he did not have to blame himself, and the latter made another act, which was revealed.
Zhou Yao changed the topic and said, "This year, your grandson seems to have also taken the exam. I heard that when he entered the examination room, he had some friction with other candidates?"
It was indeed friction, but someone pressed his face to the ground to rub. This matter was faster than Wen Xuance's 70-year-old concubine. It was known to everyone almost instantly. How could he not know?
Wen Xuancai said in panic: "The old minister is determined to eliminate the thief of the Xue family. He doesn't know about this. When I go back, I will deal with the rebellious grandson..."
"No, no, I just asked casually."
Zhou Yao was already happy. If you don’t need to clean up, someone would have cleaned up for you!
Then, Zhou Yao seemed to suddenly remember something and said, "I have a test paper, should I take a look at it if I hear it?"
"Ah? OK."
Wen Xuance was also very confused. The test paper will be here for the emperor so soon? And he also asked himself to take a look. Could it be the test paper of Jiuge?
"Huh? This is... the handwriting of Grand Secretary Li?"
"Yes, he wrote and copied it and read the content."
Zhou Yao had a smile on his eyes, because he had not changed his name on the roll paper, and he seemed to have found some kind of evil taste.
Sure enough, after Wen Xuan Ce read it, he was shocked: "What a man, why should he wear a horse and a corpse... What a man, he will keep his loyalty and shine in history..."
Well, it's exactly the same as Li Xueqin's reaction, and Wen Xuance's performance is even more exaggerated.
"What a poem! What a courage! What a good article! Could it be that this is the answer from the boy of the Yuchi family?"
"Uh... I think it's good to hear the eyes?" Zhou Yao asked deliberately.
Wen Xuance immediately said, "It's not just good, it's so bright that even the old ministers feel inferior! The great-fortune soldiers at that time were fighting with Xue Chi, Tuman, and Wu clan with their deceased ambition to fight to the death with Xue Chi, Tuman and Wu clan! These few short lines of poetry have explained the four years of battle! The reading of the problem solving and the essence of the problem, this article is even more thought-provoking. I am afraid that only Yuchi Gong can train such descendants?"
Anyway, he is obedient and doesn't have money. Yuchi Gong is a recognized boss in the court. He no longer attends court now, but the first position of officials is left for him. He doesn't even criticize the emperor for retiring and returning home. Even if he is lying at home, he is still the Grand Master!
So Wen Xuance didn't think much about it, and Yuchi Hang was basically the top scorer and it was normal for the emperor to read his test papers.
However, after this praise, the emperor couldn't help but laugh and said, "I misunderstood my opinion. This is not the test paper of Yuchi Hang, but a nobleman named Liu Xiu."
"Oh...what! Liu Xiu!?"
Wen Xuance suddenly widened his eyes because there was no name on the copied roll paper, so how could he know that it was Liu Xiu's?
Looking at Eunuch Wang again, he was almost injured. He just wanted to point at the old dog's nose and laughed: Are you stupid? Have you slapped yourself in the face? Your grandson looks like you!
At this moment, Wen Xuance recalled the smell. It turned out that the emperor was playing tricks on him and was as clear as a mirror about Wen Jiuge's affairs, so he hit himself with Liu Xiu.
Wen Xuance tried it out, but his face felt a little swollen.
Damn Liu Xiu, how could he have such literary talent?
As the party involved, Liu Xiu is playing chess with Zhou Gong at this moment.
He handed in the paper early, what else can he do if he doesn’t sleep? He can’t practice!
Chapter completed!
