If he can be amused in a few words, then Shen Youan will not be called Shen Youan, who knows what His Majesty is going to do, Shen Youan knows his identity, and it is not her turn to care about His Majesty's affairs, even if she really cares, she will not say it.

In the end, he didn't let Qi Jinghuan hear what he wanted to hear, but it didn't hinder his good mood, and he himself could experience the difference, some words, not without saying it, he couldn't understand it.

After lunch, Qi Jinghuan summoned Gu Mingzhe in the imperial study, Gu Mingzhe had already changed his clothes when he went, and it could be seen that he had carefully cleaned up.

Gu Mingzhe knelt on the ground, his heart couldn't suppress the excitement, yesterday, when Taifu told him that he would recommend himself today, his heart was already irrepressible excited, yesterday, he also dared to stop Taifu's sedan chair, he was proud of his talent, this imperial examination, even Zhao Kangcheng, who only drinks and has fun on weekdays, is on the list, but he is on the list, and the reason for this is not to mention that he is also clear, but Zhao Kangcheng actually made fun of himself in public, and he was depressed for a while, but he went out for a walk, I happened to meet the Taifu sedan chair, I heard that the Taifu loves talents, and is kind to relatives, so I will take advantage of the fire in my heart to go to the street to stop the sedan chair, I didn't have much hope, but I didn't expect the Taifu to accept himself, and really recommended himself, if he can be appreciated by His Majesty this time, Taifu Daen, must be hugged.

"You are Gu Mingzhe, a student of the Four Disciplines."

As he was thinking about it, he heard His Majesty's question, and he replied respectfully; "Back to His Majesty, the grass people are Gu Mingzhe, a student of the four schools."

He replied with excitement, his heart couldn't suppress the boiling, and he couldn't help but imagine his future entry and exit from the court, the scene of complacency, he firmly believed in his talent, he just lacked an opportunity, and now he was sitting in front of him, this opportunity came.

Unexpectedly, after the emperor on the other side heard his reply, he just snorted coldly and said; "Why is there such a big difference between students from the same four disciplines?"

He was stunned, how could His Majesty's words seem to have words in his words.

"Didn't you say that Maxima is always there and Bole is not? Now I'm giving you a chance. ”

Gu Mingzhe's back instantly cooled, saying this sentence yesterday was just a helpless move, Your Majesty, how could you know?

"Your Majesty, the grass people said these words yesterday, it was really a helpless move, I hope Your Majesty will forgive your sins."

Qi Jinghuan didn't raise his head and sneered; "Do you know that you stopped the sedan chair on the street yesterday and said such things will make it difficult for the Taifu to do, whether to accept you or not to accept you, if you accept you, the people will laugh at you, and the dignified Taifu will be threatened by a person who falls off the list, and if you don't accept you, you will admit that you have eyes and ignorance, and you can't find your piece of jade."

Gu Mingzhe was in a cold sweat, it was obviously a spring day, how could he feel so cold, the excitement and excitement when he first came were gone, and the only thing left was to be afraid, he thought that Taifu had recommended him, but now His Majesty didn't talk about the recommendation, just asked what Taifu said.

Qi Jinghuan saw that it was almost over, so he said; "It's not that Maxima often has it and Bole doesn't have it, but that you don't have your own ability, now, I will convince you, lest you think that there is no one in my court, here is an article by your four students, you see, your article, can achieve this."

Gao He took the article and handed it to Gu Mingzhe.

Gu Mingzhe took the article and was stunned for a moment, isn't this his own article? What does it mean to let yourself read your own article.

looked up and said embarrassedly; "Your Majesty, I don't know what's wrong with this article by the grass people."

Qi Jinghuan casually picked up a piece of music on the desk and threw it at Gu Mingzhe, which happened to hit him in the face, and he didn't dare to make a sound, kneeling on the ground and trembling.

"Bold Gu Mingzhe, first ridiculed the imperial master for being blind and ignorant, and now he dares to talk nonsense in front of me, that article is clearly by your four-subject student Zhao Kangcheng, how did it become yours, you don't have enough knowledge, and you still talk wildly."

"No, Your Majesty"

Gu Mingzhe was anxious to defend himself, but he turned to the signed part at the end of the article, and it was clearly Zhao Kangcheng's name, no, this was clearly his own article, how could it become Zhao Kangcheng's.

He held the article and shook his hand; "Your Majesty, this article was written by the grass people, and the grass people don't know why the signature is Zhao Kangcheng."

"Really?"

Qi Jinghuan said suspiciously; "But the one that Taifu recommended to me is Zhao Kangcheng, a student of the four schools."

"How so?"

Gu Mingzhe said in a dumb voice; "This is written by the grass people, the grass people are unwilling to be buried like this, ten years of cold and bitter windows, the grass people are unwilling to go back like this, they can't return to their hometowns in fine clothes, and they will be honored with their ancestors, and they will only be used as a sedan chair on the street yesterday."

Speaking of stopping the sedan chair on the street, Gu Mingzhe seemed to see hope again; "Your Majesty, you know that the grass people stopped the sedan chair on the street yesterday, and the Taifu said yes, yesterday, the grass people stopped the sedan chair on the street, and it was this article that the Taifu showed."

His voice was scared, indignant, excited, he couldn't believe it, Taifu obviously said that he would recommend himself, but now His Majesty said that Taifu recommended Zhao Kangcheng, and his article also became Zhao Kangcheng's, but at this moment, he suddenly thought that Zhao Kangcheng said that he and Song Taifu seemed to be intimate, yes, he stopped the sedan chair on the street, making Song Taifu lose face, how could he recommend himself so quickly, he remembered Zhao Kangcheng's hypocritical smile when he returned to Simen from Taifu's mansion yesterday to learn to get things, he knew, I was put on a position by Zhao Kangcheng, and I was deceived by Taifu, if I don't explain it clearly now, I am afraid that it will be difficult to be an official in this life.

"The Taifu didn't talk about the sedan chair you stopped on the street, he just recommended Zhao Kangcheng today, as for the matter of you blocking the sedan chair on the street, it was the female official around me who happened to meet when she came back to worship her parents, so she told me."

So that's the case, Taifu really didn't recommend himself, he was angry in his chest, how could he do such a thing to sell his reputation, if he didn't help himself, he wouldn't force it, why would he use his own article to recommend another gentleman.

Thinking of this, he was no longer afraid, only indignation, even if he fought to the death, he couldn't let His Majesty be deceived by that kind of person.

"Majesty, this article is an article that the grass people presented to Master Taifu yesterday, Majesty is wise, this article can be memorized backwards, and the views in the article, the ideas for the views, why there are such thoughts, the grass people can also say them one by one."

At this time, he calmed down, he only presented this article to Taifu yesterday, even if Zhao Kangcheng read it, he may not remember it, and even if he remembers, he doesn't know why he wrote it like this.

"You and Zhao Kangcheng are both students of the four disciplines, and it is common sense that you have read his articles."

"Your Majesty, the grass people can confront Zhao Kangcheng face to face, this article was written by Zhao Kangcheng, then he must know what was written and the reason for writing like this."

Qi Jinghuan waved his hand; "That's it, Zhao Kangcheng is recommended by Taifu, I always have to give Taifu some face, forget about this article, since my female official happened to meet you as a sedan chair on the street, it is also providential to come, so I will give you a chance to write another article in front of me."

"Thank you."

Gu Mingzhe also knew that Taifu had prestige in the court, and it was inconvenient for His Majesty to lose his face, although he was angry, he knew that now he was just a grass people, and it was not easy for His Majesty to give himself this opportunity, and he must seize this opportunity.

He turned all his anger into motivation, he studied hard for years, and an article was not difficult for him.

It didn't take long for him to finish an article, Gao He presented it to Qi Jinghuan, Qi Jinghuan read it roughly, nodded and said; "Qing is indeed talented, why don't I see you on the list in this imperial examination."

"Back to your majesty, grass people, it's off the list."

He didn't say anything superfluous, he believed that His Majesty had already known in his heart at this moment, although the imperial examination was fair on the surface, but in the end, it was those officials who were in charge, and the officials protected each other, and no matter which dynasty could not avoid it.

Sure enough, Qi Jinghuan didn't react much after listening to his words that he was not on the list, but just said that he knew and let him go back.

He went to the Taifu Mansion to get something, and the Taifu asked him how he was, he just said that he wanted to go back to Simen to learn to live, and he didn't say much, Taifu thought that he had won the appreciation of His Majesty, and it was not good to stay in the Taifu Mansion anymore, so he praised him with a smile, but Gu Mingzhe had already decided that it was Taifu who took his article and wrote Zhao Kangcheng's name, looking at how hypocritical his smile was.

Returning to Simenxue, he was naturally ridiculed by Zhao Kangcheng, he knew very well in his heart that this Zhao Kangcheng had obviously discussed with Taifu in private, and stole his own article, and now he was embarrassed to show off his might in front of him, and he firmly believed that signing his article with Zhao Kangcheng's name was done by Taifu and this Zhao Kangcheng, of course, he did not suspect that Qi Jinghuan would lie to him, in his opinion, there was no reason for His Majesty to lie to him, he was just a loser.

Just went to the palace, the mood is very different, when he went he regarded Taifu as a benefactor, when he came back he regarded Taifu as the goal, he believed that as long as he worked hard, he may not be able to reach that height, but he didn't know that it was because of his self-confidence and conceit that he suffered a lot in the officialdom in the future, and finally climbed to the position he wanted, when he finally became a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and then looked back on the past and just smiled, the emperor's mind he never guessed, and he couldn't guess, he was conceited and talented, But I don't know what the emperor is thinking.
