Fu'an arched his hands and continued: "Today's saint is the most holy and bright, cherishes talents and loves the people, and now you are recruiting talents, if you become an official one day, you must do what you say."

Li Fan said: "That's natural, if anyone is an official, for the country and the people, he will do his best to do his duty."

Fu'an said: "Haha, okay, I believe that Brother Tai must be the one who lives up to himself and expectations," and then continued: "It's not too early, it's time to go back in the next day, in a few days, it's the scientific examination, and you have to make enough preparations.

At this time, it was almost evening, after Fu'an finished speaking, he got up and retreated, and when Li Fanyi didn't pay attention, he quietly put a silver ingot on the table, which was ten taels, and turned around and went out.

Li Fan came out as soon as he followed, and arched his hand and said: "It's inconvenient to stay in the cold house, the son walks slowly, and there will be a period in the future."

Fu'an said: "Oh, in the next 'Shou'an'." Let's meet again in the future," Fu'an took the word "Shou" to hide his name, and left the inn with a blessing.

"Goodbye" Li Fan sent Fu'an back to the house, presumably Zhang Wenbo would not come back tonight, so he sat at his desk, and when he was about to turn the book, he saw the ingot of silver, knowing that Fu'an had pity on him and left it, and he was grateful in his heart, but he didn't know that he was the son of the saint today, so he accepted it for the time being and returned it another day.

Uncle Zhang Wenbo gave him a staircase to climb the official spirit, which deliberately backfired; Li Fanyi inadvertently got acquainted with Shouwang Fu'an, and went with the flow. I really have the intention to plant flowers and flowers that don't bloom, and I have no intention of wiping willows and willows.

It has been more than half a month since Li Fan came to the capital, and the time is approaching for the scientific expedition. Since the tenth year of Shuntian, it has summoned the world that the imperial examination and the martial arts examination are carried out at the same time in the spring, and the examination is held every three years, and the good day is selected to recruit virtuous and virtuous people.

Regardless of the Qingfeng Inn, and the people who are rushing to take the exam, all of them are elegant, and they are naturally free to chant poems and splash ink and sap text; Familiar with the Four Books and the Five Classics, and understand the ways of Confucius and Mencius. How many people read at night, but they can't eat, and they do their best to become famous, the process is very hard and important, and the result is also very important, and there can be several decades to talk about in life.

Sometimes I work hard to move myself, but I can only lose my name to Sun Shan, and I can't find a reason to talk about. Some people say that failure is not terrible, what is afraid is that there is no courage to fight again, in fact, defeat is defeat, when you fall from the altar can you catch yourself, some failures are really meaningless. Individuals are responsible for their personal destiny, and they are willing to stand the test, and in the years of their lives, do not let themselves down.

Let's not talk about these for the time being, a country's selection of pillars of talent often determines the country's plan and destiny, and the person who attaches the most importance to this matter should be Shun Tianye.

In the early morning of this day, a group of ministers, dressed in their official uniforms, had already stood in the palace, waiting to meet the king, or whispering to each other, or bowing their heads and meditating on their own future, or complimenting each other triumphantly, or discussing the affairs of the state with frowns.

"The emperor has arrived," a eunuch with a dust whisk in his hand shouted, this person has a beautiful face, surnamed Sun, famous Yanren, peeing into the palace, although he is thin and small, but his brain is flexible, he will pat on the back, and often relieve the boredom of Shun Tianye, so he rose all the way and came to Banzai's side.

The shrill and bright voice broke the discussion of the ministers, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live," the ministers said in unison as they knelt down.

Shun Tianye said: "Zhong Aiqing is flat," After speaking, he gently supported his right hand. Detailed clues, on the throne of the golden carved dragon wooden chair in the hall, there is a dignified body, dignified appearance of the king, dragon face and phoenix eyes, the face is like the moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the nature is natural, and there is an innate nobility and majesty. Wearing a purple and gold crown with a bundle of hair on his head, wearing a yellow brocade robe with dragon patterns, his gestures exude the spirit of a king, which makes people can't help but surrender. The palace is resplendent in gold, supported by a number of golden silk nanmu pillars, each pillar is carved with a lifelike golden dragon, each place shows the royal power and majesty, extraordinarily magnificent.

"Emperor Xie," the ministers finished speaking, getting up with their knees off the ground and bowing their heads, "If you have something to do with the morning play, you have nothing to do with the curtain and retreat," the eunuch shouted again.

At this time, Zhao Yu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, stood up, bowed his head, and said: "Long live Qiyu, the matter of the chief examiner of Enke has not yet been decided, please long live Lord Mingjian."

Shun Tianye looked at Zhao Yu and said, "The chief examiner, I think about it, I will be in charge this year," Shun Tianye finished speaking, and all the ministers returned to the "Emperor Shengming" in unison.

Shun Tianye looked at the courtiers, thoughtfully, and continued: "In previous years, Enke's cheating, cheating, and leaking questions have caused a lot of trouble, and I don't want to put the knife on the minister's neck again this year, if I commit it again, I will be severely punished."

Seeing that the Lord was a little angry, all the ministers shouted in unison, "Long live the anger, the ministers deserve death,"

Shun Tianye continued: "Okay, Zhao Yu, the matter of the imperial examination, I still bother Aiqing, we must arrange the food, clothing, food and clothing of all the talents, and I must get a few useful talents this year."

Zhao Yu said: "The ministers obey the order, and the ministers will do their best to do this well, and don't bother to do it."

Shun Tianye and the ministers discussed the matter of martial arts again, arranged for it to be supervised by the Ministry of War, and then retired from the court and returned to their posts. In recent years, the country has been worried about internal and external troubles, and Shun Tianye understands in his heart that war is inevitable, so this time he attaches more importance to martial arts to prepare for the needs of wartime.

Since the chief examiners in previous years were all ministers, the officials secretly colluded and colluded, and the examination questions were clearly marked with prices. On the contrary, let those who are truly knowledgeable and literate fall into the name of Sun Shan, and the only way to change their fate is just slipping away, and years of hard work have been in vain, so this year, Shun Tianye personally served as the chief examiner to come up with the question, and those traitorous ministers were afraid to fat, and they did not dare to go to the emperor to follow the trick. The martial arts are very different, riding horses and archery, six Tao Han Luo, and there is a difference within a few moves.

Let's not talk about national affairs, Li Fanyi was reading in the house on this day, although the smell of the horse shed was unpleasant, he had long been used to it. Zhao Jin suddenly ran into the house and said excitedly: "Master, you are not shallow, there is a beautiful girl looking for you at the door, saying that there is something important to meet,"

"Where's the real or fake?" Li Fan asked half-suspiciously, and Zhao Jin said, "It's at the door, what kind of book are you reading, let's go quickly," Zhao Jin said as he grabbed Li Fan by the arm and dragged him out.

As soon as Li Fan walked out of the gate, Zhao Jin stayed in the courtyard and watched the two chatting, his eyes were round, and his heart was full of joy.

Zhao Jin thought in his heart, when will a girl come to see him, will it be his playmate in the countryside? It's impossible, I'm so virtuous, even if I'm ugly, I don't have the ability yet. When will you be able to get ahead in this inn, otherwise, you won't be able to reply to the letters you sent, and you won't leave your hometown, Zhao Jin, who was happy, lost his smile and fell into deep thought.

As soon as Li Fan walked out of the door of the inn, he saw that Kexin was waiting at the door, still holding a package in his hand, and immediately smiled.

Li Fanyi: "Kexin, how did you find this, Miss Lanyu?" As soon as Li Fan said, he hurriedly looked around, thinking that Lan Yu was also here, and he was eager to see the Lan Yu girl he thought about day and night.

Ke Xin said: "Don't look for the son, I came by myself, my young lady didn't come,"

Li Fanyi said eagerly: "Oh, these days, how is Miss Lanyu?" Did you mention it below? ”

Ke Xin said: "Sensei worry, my young lady is fine, but she has more heart than you, and she knows that you are going to participate in the martial arts, so she won't let me send you something," Ke Xin said, handing the package in his hand to Li Fanyi, Li Fanyi scratched his head a little embarrassed, took the package, and felt warm in his heart.

Kexin continued: "Okay, I'll go back first, you take care,"

"Wait," Li Fanyi stopped Ke Xin, and Ke Xin said, "What's the matter, Master Li?" Anything else? ”

Li Fanyi was a little shy, and said, "Please help me tell your young lady, Fan is ...... for a moment I am always thinking about her, and I want her to take care of herself, and Fan Yi will not live up to her thoughts. Li Fan wanted to let Lan Yu know how tormented he missed her, but he didn't know where to start.

Kexin smiled at the corner of her mouth and said, "Well, I know, I will definitely tell my young lady."

Li Fan said: "Thank you."

Ke Xin said, "Then I'll go back first," Ke Xin said goodbye and left the inn.
