309, gradually dissatisfied

Half an hour later, in the main hall of King Wei's Mansion, Wei Zheng sat on the mat at the bottom of the head, waiting for Li Tai's arrival.

After sitting for a while, seeing that Li Tai had not yet arrived, Wei Zheng recalled the prince's urging to him just now, and couldn't help but feel a little speechless, just a long history, and he was actually afraid that King Wei would change his mind and change to another person, so he didn't wait for him to stay for a moment before sending someone to send him to the Wude Hall near the East Palace.

Alas... Thinking that he would have to work behind a child all day long, Wei Zheng felt a little embarrassed!

This Li Tai is really, and he doesn't know where he has slipped away, so he has been waiting from half an hour ago to now!

What made him feel even more serious was that there were no rules at all in this palace, and no one in the entire palace knew his whereabouts, which was really enough!

No way! Since he has come to this palace to be a long history, he has the responsibility to reorganize the order and atmosphere of the palace, and he can no longer let the palace be as dark and miasma as it is now, the palace maid does not have the appearance of the palace maid, and the master does not have the appearance of the master!

Otherwise, in the future, if people know that he is a long history in such a palace, they will have to laugh off other people's big teeth!

Thinking about it, Wei Zheng's eyes slowly became sharper, and he began to think about how to rectify the Wei Wangfu and make the Wei Wangfu a model for all the palaces.

At this moment, there was a sudden fluctuation in the space, and then a door appeared.

After a while, the door was opened, and out of it came a child and two maids.

This kid is none other than Li Tai, who has just returned from the Qi Palace.

Originally, Li Tai planned to sleep for a while as soon as he returned to the house, but before he could start to rest, Li Ying told him that Wei Zheng was coming and asked Li Tai to meet him, and Li Tai had long wanted to meet this famous figure in the later world, so without saying a word, he took Li Ying's second daughter to the main hall to see Wei Zheng through any door.

As soon as Wei Zheng saw Li Tai appear, he hurriedly stood up, bowed to Li Tai and said, "Minister Wei Zheng, I have seen the prince." ”

Although he is not very satisfied with the long history of Li Tai, there is a difference between respect and inferiority, and some etiquette still needs to be followed!

When Li Tai heard the voice, he looked up at Wei Zheng, but when he saw his appearance, he was a little disappointed, he originally thought that Wei Zheng was a man who was seven feet tall and magnificent!

But who knew that although his reputation in later generations was big, when anyone thought of the Tang Dynasty, they would be the first to think of him, but his real person turned out to be just a little old man who was not tall or short, thin and thin, and a little hunchbacked, which made Li Tai feel that compared with his great reputation, his appearance was a little untrue!

However, thinking that a person's appearance is not directly related to his ability, Li Tai was also relieved, maybe Wei Zheng was just not good-looking.

However, Wei Zheng's ability to become the crown prince and wash the horse also made Li Tai feel a little strange, because the most important thing in the Tang Dynasty was the appearance, and there was an idiom that came from this, called "body and word book judgment", the meaning is very simple, that is, after passing the imperial examination, the examiner must also go through the assessment of the officials before he can officially enter the official office.

And the assessment method is to judge the four levels of the body, the other three levels are not mentioned here, only the "body" level, this level is the last level of the four levels, and it can also be said to be the tail door!

The assessment standard of "body" is to be magnificent, that is, to be tall and strong, and to be heroic in appearance.

In other words, no matter how well the scholar did in the previous exam, once his appearance did not meet the standard and did not meet the standard of physical appearance, he would be brushed out immediately, and what was waiting for him was a waiting notice!

Therefore, every year, a group of scholars whose appearance is not up to standard stay in Chang'an, waiting to be hired, and there are often many scholars who wait for decades because their appearance is too unique......

Of course, there are exceptions to everything, just like Ouyang Xun, the original author of the poem used by Li Tai to mock the eldest grandson Wuji, was extremely ugly, and was made fun of because he looked like a monkey.

Of course, this is not the point, the point is that although he is ugly across races, he is rich in learning and writing calligraphy, and is a famous Confucian and calligrapher, so Li Shimin recruited him as a bachelor of Hongwenguan and named him a man from Bohai County.

But how many such people can there be, most of them still can't be officials for life!

However, it is hard to wonder that the emperor and ministers are reluctant to hire people who are not up to standard, after all, it is tiring enough to deal with government affairs, and if you have to deal with a person who can make people unpalatable, how sad it must be!

Belch...... The topic is a bit far away, so let's pull it back first......

Although Li Tai was a little disappointed by Wei Zheng's appearance, he still respected him, so he quickly said, "Wei Changshi, please take a seat!" Xiao Wang had something to do just now, so he came late, and I hope that the long history will not be blamed. ”

"Hmm!" Wei Zheng answered and sat back on the original mat.

Li Tai didn't know what went wrong, and his sincere words were exchanged for a word that was not salty or light.

However, Li Tai will not be annoyed because of this trivial matter, maybe it is just that Wei Zheng's personality is relatively cold and he can't get along with others.

So Li Tai sat on the top by himself, and then let Li Ying and the two daughters accompany him.

But Wei Zheng, who had been paying attention to Li Tai's actions, frowned when he saw this, this Wei Wang was so particular about pomp and circumstance at a young age, not only did he travel to be accompanied by palace maids, but he was also wearing gorgeous clothes, look at the texture of the fabric, I am afraid that it is not the best silk in Jiangnan!

Alas! is so extravagant at a young age, it seems that he still has a long way to go in the future!

Li Tai naturally didn't know Wei Zheng's thoughts, otherwise he would definitely regret asking Wei Zheng to come over from Li Jiancheng.

However, although Li Tai didn't know at the moment, he soon regretted it.

After sitting down, Li Tai asked: "Wei Changshi, do you want to eat some pastries first, Xiao Wang has some pastries here that are not available, I guarantee that you have never tasted them!" ”

At the moment, Li Tai just wanted to entertain the people he had always admired in his previous life.

It's just that Wei Zheng only said lightly: "No need!" Xia Guan had already eaten lunch, and he was not hungry at this time. ”

After speaking, he quickly said: "The prince should first say that there is something that needs to be done by the ministers!" ”

Although Li Tai was a little discouraged Wei Zheng didn't eat afternoon tea, he was very satisfied with Wei Zheng's work attitude, it seems that he has picked up a treasure, but he didn't expect Wei Zheng to be a model worker! It's so commendable that I started looking for something to do as soon as I got to work! No, we must let him try the food of the future generations and praise him well.

Thinking of this, Li Tai said to Wei Zheng in an unquestionable tone: "You better taste it first!" You won't regret it! ”

After speaking, he said: "Wouldn't it be better to talk about official business while tasting food?" Wei Changshi must not be polite to Xiao Wang, taste the food first! ”
