When the three kings left the temple, there was still some time before dawn, and the sky was full of stars when they set out on their way home. The procession was more than several times larger than when it came, and the Imperial Emperor personally led the team to escort the Three Kings back, because there was still a part of the reward about the Concubine Fang and others that she needed to read out.

Throughout the day, the family members of Renzhiyuan were also extremely tormented, and the concubine Fang almost never left the central hall, and every once in a while they had to ask if there was any news coming back. The other family members, including the palace maids, were also absent-minded in their work, and frequently looked out.

The group arrived at Renzhi Courtyard in a mighty manner, and all the people from the concubine Fang Shi hurriedly went out to greet them, and only after a noisy negotiation did they return to the central hall. When the Di clan announced the decree of the God Emperor, the Fang clan who worshiped the grace couldn't help but cry again.

Li Tong and the other three hurriedly returned their mother-in-law to the banquet, and Di Di couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The concubine has worked hard to educate and raise young people such as the king, and now she has finally enjoyed the blessings, and she has a lot of confidence for the rest of her life." ”

Fang's was emotional, and after hearing the words, he couldn't cry anymore, holding the young son's wrist with one hand, and frequently patting the other two sons on the shoulder with the other hand, the corners of his lips moved, and he couldn't speak.

After many gifts were delivered and put into storage, the Di family also sat down soon, so as not to disturb the joy of the family's taste of the joy of Ji Tailai, but before leaving, he explained to ask King Yong'an to rest early, so as not to delay continuing to participate in the ceremony tomorrow.

After sending the Di family and his entourage away from Renzhi Academy, Li Tong and the other three brothers returned to the middle hall and solemnly said to their mother-in-law again: "The son and others live up to the expectations of the family, and your majesty will accept the favor of your family, and you will not be dishonored by the ancestors, and Ciwutai will not be built!" ”

"Good son, mine, my ......"

Without outsiders present, Fang's could not control his emotions. Although he sighed without regrets in the morning, the third son went out to attend the ceremony, and the family was rewarded again within day and night, and the happiness and joy were really unstoppable, and turned into tears.

After another moment, Fang's hurriedly sent the maid of the palace to deliver the meal that had been prepared in the morning. Not to mention, I don't think that the hot meal is in front of them, Li Tong and the other three are very hungry, and even Li Shouli, who is the most arrogant, is also cautious on the occasion of Dajiu, and he doesn't dare to let go of eating at all.

Now that he is home, he can let go of eating, Fang sat on one side, looking at the three sons with a joyful face, and did not care about Li Shouli's violation of the etiquette of eating without saying a word, and the full mouth of food was still dancing there to tell the details of the process of participating in the ceremony.

Li Shouli spoke happily, but he also paid attention to grasping the scale, reporting good news but not bad news, but only focusing on the performance of the big song "Vientiane" won a full house, and everyone from the emperor to the emperor and the hall were full of appreciation. As for the conflict with the Wu family before the ceremony, and even the danger of being expelled, he didn't mention it.

"The second brother is still arrogant and deceitful, how can any immortal dance fly in the air!"

The younger sister Li Youniang was fascinated by her wide-eyed eyes, but she didn't forget to question it to show her distrust of this unreasonable brother.

"Really, it's a dance ......"

Li Guangshun, who has always been taciturn, also has a smile on his face at this time, and he really integrates into the family atmosphere.

"Erlang is ambitious, what can't be done! Your little lady is also rare and strange, and her old family is in the East Palace......"

Fang's smile took the little lady who was still questioning into his arms, and echoed the topic of casually talking about the scenery of the early years, usually these words would not be said much, but now if he is not very Tailai, there will be no worries.

A homely meal is far less sumptuous and solemn than Mingtang's feast, but the harmonious atmosphere is a hundred times better. After Li Tong finished eating, he habitually wanted to pass on tea, but was stopped by Fang's raised hand: "San Lang will attend the ceremony tomorrow, don't taste the bitter drink too much, a few cups of warm soup, hurry back to the room to rest." ”

Li Tong was not stubborn, a cup of hot buttermilk was put into his stomach, and he chatted a few words with his family, and then got up and went back to sleep under Fang's urging. At the end of this day, he was really physically and mentally exhausted.

When the young son left, Fang's face became solemn again, and he looked at the two eldest sons and said seriously: "Although San Lang is the youngest in the court, he is favored by your father's thick shade. Now that the world has seen my door again, it will inevitably be implicated in personnel exchanges in the future. You two are stupid but less scheming, look at the younger brother in case of trouble, don't be rash and floating, feel that it is undignified for your brother to obey your brother! Especially Noriko, if it weren't for your brother's care, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to do things as an adult! ”

Li Shouli just smiled after hearing this: "Niangniang is really worried, I have already remembered this point!" Sunnu is very close to me, and if he says anything, I will only teach me Aya! ”

"Nonsense again!"

Fang's glared at him, and then sighed again: "But the attitude is commendable, several of you are all lonely and lonely, and I can only teach a few." Not only should we abide by friendship for the present, but also set up families in the future, and we should not alienate each other. Parenting and old things, personal disputes, that has nothing to do with your brothers. But in the future, if you do the ugly thing of disharmony in the court, then you don't have to enter the ancestral hall again, even if the souls of your parents are consumed, you will never be eaten by this smelly sacrifice! ”

Seeing that Niangniang said solemnly and seriously, Li Guangshun and Li Shouli also had a correct posture and were respectfully taught.

In fact, even if there is no lesson from Fang's, not to mention it from afar, just today's experience in the Mingtang Corridor, if it weren't for the third brother's idea, they would have lost all their faces. The trust and dependence that are built up bit by bit are not words that can profit or lose.

Li Tong slept peacefully this night, it was unprecedentedly relaxed, he fell asleep on the pillow, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already awakened by Zheng Jin's entry into the room, and the lieutenant who guided the salute had arrived at Renzhi Yuan.

After hastily having breakfast, the family gathered together to bid farewell, and Li Tong went to Mingtang under the guidance of the palace officials.

This time, the ceremony went much smoother, and there were no bad things. The palace official led him straight into the side hall, where he changed into a solemn dress that had been modified.

When wearing the chapter uniform, he couldn't help but sigh that the more people really lacked something, the more they valued. Yesterday, their brothers attended the ceremony, and the clothes and crowns still followed the old style of the Yonghui period, and today's dress is several times more cumbersome than before. Wu Zetian, the heroine of the country, lacks much etiquette and law, but she is keen on reviving ancient rites, going straight back to the first Zhou, first salute and then soldier, what else can you do?

The side hall sat upright for nearly an hour, and another palace official came to guide him. With such an appearance yesterday, he naturally does not need to hide behind the curtain on the edge of the main hall today, but goes out of the hall to enter the class, and gathers with the ministers to enter the temple to worship.

When Li Tong walked out of the side hall, the ministers were already in line with each other in front of the Divine Palace. Standing in the distance and looking down, the black pressed a crowd, and the scale was much larger than yesterday.

According to the "General Dictionary" of later generations, there were 18,805 officials in the Tang Dynasty, including 2,621 internal officials and 16,185 foreign counties.

Although this data is indicative, it is certainly not static, and several special periods such as the Wuzhou Revolution and the Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty after the division of feudal towns will inevitably have the problem of the proliferation of famous lords and ministry rewards.

For example, the two officials who were added in the post-martial arts period were set up to pick up the relics and fill the que, and the words were fixed, and when there were many, they were innumerable.

These more than 18,000 positions are just the ranks of the stream. Xun, below the grade, another outside the stream, visual products, etc., Ze and Shu people, the scale is more than several times larger than the grade in the stream.

Full of calculations, the first year of Yongchang this New Year's feast, even if it is only concentrated in the Heluo area, there are tens of thousands of people before and after the ceremony, so it is divided into six days before and after, more than thousands of people a day, less than thousands of people.

Today's eighth day of the first day of the ceremony, for the bachelors of all countries and the pavilion doctors, including the students of various museums. In the Tang Dynasty, there were six schools and two halls, and these people were the main participants today. In addition, there are also Heluo, Guanzhong, Bingzhou and other township sages and elders, Luoyang people and virtuous people to participate in the ceremony.

When Li Tong arrived here, he saw that the team was mostly young, and the brightly dressed officials only accounted for one-third of the team. Even so, there are still many purple-robed seniors in the front class of the faction, because most of the affairs of the academy are led by ministers.

Li Tong was dressed in a new and solemn Zongwang uniform, and was guided out of the hall, and when he approached the team, a series of buzzing discussions suddenly sounded in the team.

Although there was a still amazing appearance yesterday, the spread of the news was not so fast, especially the many students present in the academy and the sages in the wild countryside are still far from the political situation, and the acceptance of the news will naturally lag even further.

If Li Tong can't continue to set off a trend and make frequent appearances, his existence will only spread in a small area, and there will be no trace of word of mouth spreading outward.

Xue Huaiyi, who was here early in the morning, took a few steps out of the class to greet Li Tong, patted him on the shoulder with the attitude of a big brother and said with a smile: "I haven't seen him for a day, Wang has a better demeanor, and the eyes of people are gathered, which is really impossible to ignore!" ”

Li Tong also politely saluted Xue Huaiyi, and followed Xue Huaiyi into the shift, comfortable in the front shift. A group of purple-clad bigwigs in the front row, Li Tong can only know the two cousins Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi at a glance.

Although Wu Chengsi was not very enthusiastic, when Li Tong saw the salute, he still responded slightly. As for Wu Sansi, he has been cold-faced since he saw King Yong'an. Li Tong was not used to his bad temper, so he ignored him at all.

Although there are not many acquaintances, with Xue Huaiyi chatting a few words by his side, Li Tong is not lonely. Xue Huaiyi enthusiastically told him some personnel details, and also ignored Wu Sansi's frequent cold eyes.

This enthusiasm is naturally not without reason, and the love shown by the God Emperor in the hall for King Yong'an yesterday, Xue Huaiyi saw it in his eyes. Today, these people have never looked down on Xue Huaiyi, but they didn't expect Xue Huaiyi to be in the limelight in front of them today.

Thinking of this, Xue Huaiyi was naturally full of evil pleasure, and he was naturally more enthusiastic about King Yong'an, who helped him do this.

As he spoke, there was another commotion in the queue in the rear, and Li Tong followed the prestige and saw a white-faced general in armor striding towards the front class. The man's expression was cold, and his eyes were always fixed on Li Tong in the front class during his walk, and his eyes couldn't tell whether they were vicious or yin, in short, it made Li Tong feel uncomfortable.

"This is Qiu Shenyun."

Xue Huaiyi opened his mouth to introduce a little, and pulled Li Tong closer to him.
