Hong Xueqin's portrait when he was young, he happily looked at the portrait, squeaked, and showed a weird smile: "Old man, old man, I think that our ancestors were originally from the same master's sect, but now they have parted ways, but who else can blame you?" With that, he vigorously rolled up the drawings and put them back to their original flavor, waiting for the arrival of the holy woman.

Turning back to Northern Xia, Li Jianguo led his wife and children to Xuanchun's grave today to worship.

Li Jianguo respectfully burned three incense sticks, inserted them in front of Xuanchun's grave, endured tears of grief, and said with a sigh: "Xuanchun, you are a strong girl, it is so good to have you by our side all these years!" In fact, you don't have to worry so much, you should play, eat, and drink in that place! Saying this, he wiped his mouth and nose and pointed to his firm eyes: "Xuanchun, you see, the imperial brother didn't cry, the imperial brother didn't hurt you and disappointed, you can rest assured that the imperial brother will take good care of your imperial sister-in-law and live well!" Then Li Jianguo bowed three times, stepped back, and said solemnly: "Emperors, worship your aunt!" ”

Several princes suddenly knelt on their knees, and Li Qian sighed: "In our eyes, my aunt is the kindest and most considerate woman in the world, you like to play with us, and you like to teach us a lot of things, now that you are gone, we will only rely on ourselves, but don't worry too much about us, we will definitely be happy in the future!" After speaking, he kowtowed three times and got up with tears, and then Li Jianguo gave an order, and the firecrackers rang out, ending the worship of the imperial sister in this sad but joyful worship.

In the blink of an eye, another three months passed. Today's early dynasty, there was a joyful atmosphere in the court, and the ministers were even more congratulatory, "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, a few months ago you ordered the release of most of the palace maids who returned to their hometowns have found a marriage match, and the tax revenue of our dynasty is several times more than that of Taizu and Xiaozong, which is really gratifying, gratifying!" ”

Hearing this, Li Jianguo was overjoyed, but there was still a little sadness on his face, "They can find their own home, so by the way, they are content, but after several wars, there are hundreds of people living in poverty, and some even have a problem with eating. ”

The ministers bowed, "Emperor Shengming!" ”

Li Jianguo smiled for a moment, and his face showed a sincere and modest expression: "You Aiqing don't have to be like this, these are just the duties of being the Son of Heaven." However, before retiring from the dynasty, Shun still has one important thing to say, that is, the case of Princess Sanssoucian, which was committed by the traitor Li Xiao alone, so from today onwards, all charges of Princess Sanssouci will be cleared and the royal status will be restored. After speaking, he blinked his eyes and cast his firm gaze on the ministers, making the head of the government, "The ministers are honored!" ”

Before then, Cao Wansui, Xu Yang, Gao Yangduan, Shangguan Yima, entered the palace to visit the Son of Heaven.

The four of them entered the hall and saluted, and the Son of Heaven personally helped: "The three Aiqing hurry up, this time you can get rid of Li Xiao, you have a lot of credit!" ”

The three of them replied modestly: "The emperor is serious, and it is the duty of the ministers to do things for the Son of Heaven!" ”

"We are not only the Son of Heaven, but also friends!" Saying this, Li Jianguo smiled kindly, and asked intentionally: "It's only been a few months since I was in power, how do you think I should administer in the future!" ”

Gao Yangduan: "Qi Yu Dynasty Emperor, Reward: Fight the world with military generals, rule the world by Wenchen, now although the emperor has turned over, but there is still a lack of capable people around him, so Weichen believes that the emperor should issue an order, convene the world's scholars to sign up for the assessment, and then after layers of screening, the final selection of the most outstanding people!"

”

Xu Yang stood up, "The last general thinks that Gao Yangduan is very reasonable, before the last general happened to meet a scholar family who was born poor but has such lofty ambitions as a pervert when he joined the army, the last general believes that as long as the emperor can give you a chance, they will do their best to serve the people!" ”

Li Jianguo listened and was very pleased: "The two Aiqing said very much, this matter will be arranged by the two of you, and I think that as long as we can treat the people with sincerity, my Daxia will definitely be prosperous and strong in the future!" ”

Transferred to Northern Xia and Zhou, after February.

Today, Yuan's mother was washing diligently at home, and after a while, it was rumored that her son was ecstatic and shouted, she quickly got up and looked, only to see her son holding a scroll in his hand, and jumped happily: "Mother, the child can go to the assessment, the child can finally go to the assessment!" ”

Seeing that the child was so interested, the excitement of the mother couldn't help but rise: "What to participate in the assessment, look at the child, you are happy!" ”

Yuan Xinye took a few breaths and patiently explained: "It is the Holy Order's order to announce to the world, saying that as long as it is a scholarly family, no matter what is born, you can participate in the assessment, and then after layers of screening, the most outstanding person will be selected, and you can enter the Beijing Saint!" ”

When the mother suddenly realized, she happily pinched Yuan Xinye's little face: "It turns out that my letter wants to be assessed to enter Beijing, so that she can do a great career in the future." ”

Yuan Xinye bit his mouth, bit his head with a hum, and exuded squeamishness: "It's not just this, the child does this not only to change the fate of the family, but also to serve the Son of Heaven, so people's thoughts are not so selfish!" After speaking, he rolled his eyes, and his sadness was slightly revealed.

Yuan's mother was anxious, she gently supported the child's body, nodded and shhhed: "Mother understands, mother understands!" Then she looked at the child silently, and in a moment her own countenance became sad.

"Mother, what are you doing here, you shouldn't be happy that your son can have such an ideal, right?" Yuan Xinye looked at his mother's worried expression, and the bitter taste in his heart was a little more, and for a while, he looked confused, not knowing what to do.

At this moment of hesitation, Yuan's mother suddenly opened her hands, and she hugged the child tightly in her arms with excitement, gushing out tears of grief, crying: "Mother just feels that the road to Beijing is difficult, with countless ups and downs, and I don't know how old I will be when I go this way, my mother is reluctant to let you go, worried about you, will, will ......" She swallowed her breath and coughed mournfully.

Yuan Xinye patted his mother's back and comforted him: "Mother, don't worry, the child will be safe and sound on this journey!" ”

Mother Yuan nodded stiffly, slowly poked her head out, and looked at the child with extremely serious eyes, "Xin'er, have you really made up your mind to enter Beijing for this assessment?"

Yuan Xinye nodded resolutely and choked: "Of course, besides, aren't you looking forward to such a day?" ”

Mother Yuan was silent for a moment, scars and tears poured out from the corners of her eyes again, and a sincere plea also emanated from her mouth: "Promise mother, don't forget now, okay?" As she spoke, she sighed in mourning.

"Mother, the child promises you, no matter how much the child has achieved in the future, he will never forget his family!" Sincerely, Mother Yuan was excited to hug her son again, and her deep sadness became deeper and deeper, "As long as Xin'er thinks about it, then do it boldly, Auntie and your father will always be here, waiting for you to come back!" ”

After hugging affectionately, the mother and son reluctantly let go of each other.

Yuan's mother complained for a moment, and then entered the room, and after a while, she took out the family's private money and jade pendant, handed it to Yuan Xinye's hand, and held it tightly: "These things are given to you by your mother, you must put them away, so as to bless you with worry-free food and clothing, and a safe journey!" ”

"Thank you, mother!" Yuan Xinye bowed three times, and then turned around, but after walking a few steps, the reluctance in his heart prompted him to turn around, look back at his hometown, and never forget.

"Go ahead!" Yuan's mother's firm eyes finally made Yuan Xinye reluctant, made up his mind, and finally embarked on the journey of fate.

In March of the 69th year of Yonglong, the assessment of Jinshi was held under the holy will of Emperor Li Jianguo of Xia, and Gao Yangduan was even more diligent and responsible, selected the sage Jingshi, and sent the invigilators of various states to be strict for the people and treat life fairly.

When he arrived at the Beijing examination, Li Jianguo personally invigilated the examination to show his sacred heart.

After a year of assessment, after layers of screening, Yuan Xinye finally stood out from tens of millions of scholars and became the most outstanding person with his own efforts.

In April of the 70th year of Yonglong, Yuan Xinye entered Beijing to face the saint.

After saluting, Yuan Xinye quietly looked at the face of the saint and thought, "I thought that the person who could be the Son of Heaven must be mighty and domineering, but who would have thought that today's Son of Heaven would be as elegant as me!" ”

Just as he hesitated, the saint's hands suddenly supported his body, and he bowed for him: "Aiqing, please get up quickly, I have been waiting for you for a full year!" ”

Looking at the saint's ecstasy, Yuan Xinye's expression was not surprised: "The saint's move is really flattering to the grass people!" ”

Li Jianguo patted Yuan Xinye on the shoulder and said: "What can be surprising, how much hardship have you paid along the way to be able to meet me, isn't it reasonable to treat you like this?" ”

"Grass people, thank you for the emperor's kindness!"

After a while, Gao Yangduan entered the palace, "Emperor Qi, this volume is Yuan Xinye's family background, please take a look at the emperor!" After speaking, he respectfully took out the roll of paper and let the eunuch hand it to Li Jianguo's hand, he took a closer look, and suddenly turned to surprise, at this point, I saw him suddenly walk in front of Yuan Xinye, look at his face, and exclaim: "It turned out to be you, it turned out to be you!" ”

The excitement of the saint made Li Jianguo suddenly confused, and he looked puzzled: "Emperor Chao, who are you?" ”

He didn't have time to think, and the saint shed sincere tears, "Brother, have you forgotten me, I am your brother-in-law." ”

Yuan Xinye was even more puzzled, and he shook his head embarrassedly.

"By the way, have you ever heard your mother say that your father was forced to be demoted to a concubine because of that year?" After a few sighs, he asked directly: "Aiqing's father, but did the Taishi Yuan cheat back then?" ”
