Kun Yan sneered and said disdainfully: "What are you doing here to find General Ben?" ”

"Don't be angry, the general is just coming to have a drink with you, the old man's dungeon has allowed the general to live here for eleven years, the old man rarely comes to see the general, and it is also a great creation to have a good chat with the general today."

"You're not afraid I'll kill you?" He approached him, trying to make himself look like a bear.

"Aren't you afraid that I will kill your daughter and your grandson? Honestly, I'm a person who can do anything crazy, what do you say, General? He smiled coldly and approached Kun Yan.

Kun Yan knew that he would not kill himself suddenly, so he sat on the ground with a big lama, holding the wine jug and began to take a big gulp of delicious food, to be honest, he hadn't eaten for a long time.

General Cheng and Qiao An stared at the old fairy, how General Cheng wanted to sneak attack, but Qiao An grabbed General Cheng's wrist.

If the sneak attack was successful, she believed that Kun Yan had already fled from here.

Shen Qiao'an thought deeply, and finally decided that when this old thing left, they followed behind and followed him to see where he had left from!

They can only wait according to their temperament, the old ghost kept mocking Kun Yan, Kun Yan deliberately led the old ghost to say a lot of secret ways here, and Qiao An remembered them one by one.

During the conversation, Shen Qiaoan and General Cheng also knew that this old immortal was a sanctimonious hypocrite, he was extremely evil, and he poisoned the general, not to mention it, but even robbed someone's daughter.

The two were anxious.

Dijing, Li Zhongxuan was also very anxious, General Cheng took a week off, but half a month has passed in an instant, some people claim that the last time he saw General Cheng was near Furong Pass, he also thought that General Cheng was in danger, and hurriedly looked for Feng Yu to find, but Feng Yu found the surrounding mountains and mountains, but he was the only one who could not see General Cheng.

"As far as the border of Jiang State, we all went to look for it, and we didn't see a general all the way."

"Has anyone seen him, ask more!" Li Zhongxuan frowned angrily, and Feng Yu nodded again and again, "Don't worry, the emperor will definitely give you a satisfactory answer here." ”

In order to find General Cheng, Li Zhongxuan even arranged for spies to go to Jiang Guo to investigate, but when the man returned, he told Li Zhongxuan that it was absolutely impossible for General Cheng to appear in Jiang Guo.

He had a bad premonition, only afraid that General Cheng had been killed.

Just when Li Zhongxuan was thinking about it, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple arrived, and after Lord Pei knocked on the holy grace, he got up and said, "Hasn't the emperor found General Cheng yet?" ”

"I'm really going to die, where will he go?" Li Zhongxuan frowned and stared at the person in front of him.

Master Pei smiled, "According to the old minister, even if the general falls into the nest of bandits, what can he do?" What can he do with even a thousand troops? Or maybe he has found Chonghei Tiger and is dealing with these things by himself. ”

"Really?" Li Zhongxuan was overjoyed and smiled at Pei Yan.

In fact, Master Pei looked at Li Zhongxuan frowning, but he just wanted to find a reasonable excuse to let him put down his thoughts, as for whether this speculation was true or not, no one knows.

"That's nature, the general Ji people have their own natural appearance, and they will definitely be lucky in trouble." Pei Yan said again: "Right now, our emperor has sent these people to look for them, and soon the news of feedback will arrive, just sit back and relax." ”

Having said this, Li Zhongxuan knew that Pei Yan was making the Hajj today, and he had other things, so he said, "You came to find me, what is the matter?" Go ahead? ”

Pei Yan said: "The autumn season is coming to an end, this year's palace test is scheduled for the day after tomorrow, and the old minister has already surpassed Qin Tianjian to ask about the heavens, saying that it is an auspicious day for the zodiac, and I want my emperor to order Hanlin on that day." ”

Speaking of Qiuqiu, it is also a top priority, after all, the palace test is only once every three years, and at this juncture, Pei Yan hopes that Li Zhongxuan can do it himself, so that people all over the world can understand that they are thirsty for talent today.

"That's it, take out the list of candidates who will try!" Li Zhongxuan said: "I want to see it. Master Pei had prepared this before he came in, and when he heard Li Zhongxuan ask for the list, he hurriedly took out a roll of yellow paper from his sleeve and gave it to Li Zhongxuan.

Li Zhongxuan stared, "They are all Jinshi and first, but I don't know who is the leader?" ”

"Don't worry, the answer will be revealed soon." Pei Yan smiled and retreated.

Three days later, it was an auspicious day of the zodiac, the sky was cloudless, the continuous autumn rain disappeared, the imperial capital was clear, and even the clouds seemed to be more gorgeous than usual.

Today's order Hanlin, yesterday canceled the court meeting, the master of ceremonies and the eunuch came over to arrange the tables, chairs and benches, and after all the inspections were completed, the candidates were let in.

After various examinations, only 30 people can come to Jinluan Hall to participate in the examination today, and these 30 or so people are all talented and well-dressed.

The questions of the exam range from poetry and poetry to cultural governance and martial arts, and there are all kinds of strategies, checks and balances, etc., and none of them will be left behind.

After this group of jinshi came in, they sat under Li Zhongxuan step by step, and the invigilator handed out the papers, and everyone held their breath to deal with it.

Before this group of people came in, a big eunuch had already reminded them, asking them not to look left and right, just do the questions seriously, today's palace exam is completely different from the test questions at other times, as far as the time is concerned, it is not more than half an hour from the beginning to the end, so you must not look around and have small movements.

so as not to be kicked out and disqualified from the exam.

At this moment, everyone was quiet, and a needle could be clearly heard when it fell on the ground.

"Your Majesty." The eunuch who was waiting in front of the emperor coughed lightly, Li Zhongxuan turned his head and handed his ear to your eunuch, the eunuch babbled something, Li Zhongxuan's face changed, and his eyes moved from the group of young people below to the eunuch.

The eunuch nodded slightly, and Li Zhongxuan got up, frowned, and entered the apse.

Everyone felt that the Son of Heaven was leaving, and they all raised their heads together, and Dali Siqing walked out of the apse and said solemnly: "You don't have to look around, you can't hand in a satisfactory answer after an hour, it's not a joke." ”

Everyone hurriedly gathered their minds and calmly coped.

Here, Li Zhongxuan had already left the Qiankun Palace, and in the warm pavilion of the apse, Feng Yu was waiting in a hurry, seeing that Li Zhongxuan was coming, and told the matter.

It turned out that Li Zhongxuan saw that General Cheng had disappeared recently, and he sent Feng Yu to ask the key, Feng Yu and Du Bian searched everywhere, but there was no news, and Feng Yu sneaked into Jiang Guo last night, so he eavesdropped on the conversation between his sister and the servants, and only then did he know that Anti-Qiao An and General Cheng were looking for what Lao Shizi old fairy went.

Feng Yu flew down from the roof and hurriedly asked, Sister Hong knew that the matter was big and divided for a long time, but in the end she still explained the matter and the plate, Feng Yu said anxiously: "What about the guide?" Where? Say it! ”

Sister Hong told Feng Yu the contact information of the guide, and Feng Yu went to look for it overnight, how did she know that the person's family was slaughtered, and the methods were extremely cruel, seeing the corpse in the house, Feng Yu couldn't say if he was suffering.

Told Sister Hong about the matter, and the sisters and brothers immediately searched for it in the surroundings, and Sister Hong also launched a lot of red ladies, but Rao was so, but she couldn't find any clues.

The sister and brother agreed to meet in two days to understand the progress of the matter, and when they heard Feng Yu tell the matter, Li Zhongxuan was stunned, and his eyes were cold: "It's all a good thing you did, why don't you tell me if you want to help someone?" Lao Cheng is also confused. ”

"Your Majesty, your subordinates are also in the dark about this matter!" Feng Yu hurriedly knelt in front of Li Zhongxuan.

"That's it, that's it!" Li Zhongxuan said as he untied the crown and was about to go outside, "Take it!" Fast! ”

He gave the things to the eunuch, and the old eunuch was shocked, his hands were trembling, and he said in a trembling voice: "My lord! The palace test is not over yet, you can't go, you go, it's a shame! The world will laugh at you. ”

"My best general Yiping is in trouble at this moment, and the life and death of people are still uncertain, so you have to let me read their answers here, how can it be unreasonable!" After all, things have priorities, and Li Zhongxuan is a little incoherent when he is in a hurry.

In fact, a palace test in three years, a palace test to have the top three, this thing is comparable to the safety of the general, you know, the palace test is not only the emperor to point Hanlin to take the lead, its main purpose is to reward people with lofty ideals to come from behind, expressing the hope that the sea will be inclusive.

Seeing that the emperor was in a hurry to ask for it, Feng Yu hurriedly knelt in front of Li Zhongxuan and said sharply: "Your Majesty, you can't do it!" ”

"What not!" Li Zhongxuan was annoyed.

"Your Majesty!" Behind Li Zhongxuan was Fang Se's voice, "Don't be impatient, after all, this matter has already been investigated by General Fengyu and General Du Bian, you might as well hand over this matter to them for the time being, and if you want to be a wise and martial person like the general, you will never go on a business trip." ”

"Hey!" Li Zhongxuan sat on the chair discouraged.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Weichen's subordinates are also elite soldiers." Seeing that the emperor was shaken, Fang Se made persistent efforts and approached Li Zhongxuan.

In an intimate voice that does not distinguish between each other, he said softly: "The palace test is only once every three years, brother, you can't leave rashly, what will the world say about you?" ”

Li Zhongxuan sighed, appeared in the hall again, he handed Dali Siqing a look, and Master Pei slowly got up and retreated to the apse.

At this moment, Li Zhongxuan was sitting on pins and needles, and everyone could obviously feel that Li Zhongxuan was absent-minded, but they didn't know what made Li Zhongxuan absent-minded, everyone was suspicious, and thought that they hadn't done a good job.

Finally, everything was over, and the old eunuch knocked on the cloud board, stretched the male duck's voice and said, "Everyone, you can stand up and leave, and go to Kunming Pool to rest for the time being." One line said, and one line led the crowd away.

Thirty exam papers were quickly accepted by the invigilator, and Dali Siqing, the invigilator, and the group of old masters of the Hanlin Academy had finished reviewing the papers in just half an hour, and they took out the ones who thought they were elegant.

According to the number, it was placed on the table, and the top three came out with the vote, and this year's exam papers were done at a very high level, and the top three were not in suspense.

After voting, the three test papers were given to Li Zhongxuan, Li Zhongxuan held them and looked at them, and his eyebrows fluttered, and he pointed to the first one.

"Who is this Gao Dekai?"

"The phoenix is out of the poor countryside, and the humble position has been investigated, this Gao Dekai has been familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics since he was a child, and he is unsurpassed in terms of wisdom, and then this volume, you can take a look?" The invigilator praised and took out the rest of the people's papers to compare with them.

Li Zhongxuan took a look at it and found that his handwriting was really beautiful and upright, and he had the style of a friendly army, so the invigilator said: "That's it, he is still a gentleman with talents, you can just ask later." ”

"Why is this Gao Dekai so powerful? I've never heard of it before. Everyone was trying their best to recommend Gao Dekai, but Pei Yan was a little unoptimistic about him.

"My Lord Pei," the invigilator said, "we are all old, and the court needs new people. ”

But Pei Yan was still a little puzzled.

After a while, the light of the Son of Heaven descended on Kunming Pool, this is Luming Garden, and the people who can feast here will be either rich or expensive in the future, Li Zhongxuan was a little hesitant in the top three, and was ready to ask in advance.

He doesn't have many problems, but problems that actually happen and have already happened.
