Chapter 24: Who is it?
After the dispersal of the dynasty, Zhang Fu begged to see the emperor and presented the only volume on the list.
Zhu Qizhen was greatly appreciative after seeing it, and said, "Not bad." Give him a gold belt, enter the brocade guard, and be on duty in the palace, and I want to see him from time to time. ”
There is an age limit for the children of the nobles to participate in the parade, only teenagers between the ages of 15 and 20 can participate, and those who are over 20 years old will be disqualified. In other words, the person who has such an opinion is a teenager.
This man is my age and knowledgeable, so how can I ask for advice from time to time, and be a good minister?
Zhang Fu pondered: "Or the elders in the family usually have such remarks, and he just copies them." ”
He thought about it again and again, if it was really this person's own opinion, he could be called a genius. Is genius so easy to come by? Besides, no matter how many Xungui children there are, just those people, he hasn't heard of anyone who has produced young talents.
Zhu Qizhen said: "If this is the case, the elder of this son must also be reused." ”
As soon as these words came out, the only worry in Zhang Fu's heart suddenly disappeared. He guessed correctly, Warat was a big trouble for the emperor. The military general should establish meritorious deeds on the battlefield, I hope this battle will not have to wait too long, he will not have many years to wait.
"Your Majesty, do you want to announce that this son will enter the palace and ask in person?" For the sake of prudence, Zhang Fu felt that it was better to ask, after all, these opinions were too old. Hence the suggestion.
Zhu Qizhen said: "After the list is released, I will announce him to enter the palace." By the way, An Xiangbo's son is called Zhang Ning, right? Have you ever participated in the review this time? ”
Thinking of Zhang Ning's desperate Sanlang as the incarnation of Youyou, he couldn't help but smile. Yesterday, he went to Cishou Palace to greet the Empress Dowager, and went out of the palace with Youyou, and made fun of her about it on the way.
Speaking of Zhang Ning, Zhang Fu said in a calm tone: "Yes." This son and the minister high-fived three times, if he can't make the list, he will be grounded in the palace for three years; If he can make the list, the minister must promise him one thing. As long as it is beneficial to the community and His Majesty, the minister must not refuse. ”
Zhu Qizhen was surprised and said, "You three high-fives? ”
"Exactly."
"Hahaha......" Zhu Qizhen couldn't help laughing when he thought of Zhang Ning asking himself for the test question as a matter of course, and said: "If he can really be on the list, will Qing really promise him one thing?" ”
Zhang Fu pointed to the test paper with his name pasted on the imperial case, and said, "Your Majesty, only one person has passed this time." ”
"Only one person." Zhu Qizhen's heart moved, and said, "It can't be him, right?" ”
This kid was the only one who knew the test questions in advance, three days more than the others. Three days is enough for him to consult with his elders in the world, adopt the strengths of all families, and write an outstanding strategy.
"Huh?" Zhang Fubai's eyebrows were twisted together, and he said, "Old minister, let's take a look." ”
The proofreading does not strictly require who tore up the blank paper, generally after the emperor's imperial review, the emperor agrees, and the test papers on the list can be torn off.
He tore off the white paper with the names and ages of the nobles' children pasted in front of the emperor, and after seeing the words on it, he was stunned.
Zhu Qizhen saw that his expression was different, and said, "How?" ”
He didn't think that with Zhang Ning's cleverness, he wouldn't be able to understand the meaning of his words, not to mention that Zhang Ning said on the spot that he was willing to sweep away the Tartar for him, which was clearly clear in his heart.
"It's Zhang Ning......"
Zhang Fu's expression was strange, but he was actually shocked in his heart, the only one who was interested in sweeping the north, thinking clearly, being organized, and showing maturity between the lines was actually written by Zhang Ning, who was out of tune and famous for his love of fighting?
He's right?
Zhang Fu opened his eyes and looked at it again, and the word "Zhang Ning" was clearly written in the name column, and his background was written "Anxiang Bofu".
The proofreading is different from the imperial examination, and the proofreading only needs to write down which mansion it is from, and the honorable family can participate after obtaining the consent of the head of the family, which is the case. The imperial examination should be written three generations up.
It's Zhang Ning. Zhu Qizhen smiled and said, "Besides him, are there no merits in other volumes?" ”
Zhang Fudao: "There is also a good literary collection, but it is intended to be based on appeasement. The minister did not choose either. ”
"There are more than 2,000 tributary envoys in Warat each time, and they are clearly ill-intentioned, so how can there be room for appeasement?" The smile on Zhu Qizhen's face turned cold.
"The minister thought so." Zhang Fu had a sad look on his face and said: "Wara's heart to go south is immortal, but many people are confused by appearances. This volume talks a lot about appeasement, and some people even mention harmony again, hehe. ”
Zhu Qizhen was furious, slapped his right hand on the imperial case, and said: "Even if Taizu does not have the ancestral training of not making harmony, I will definitely refuse to let the princess marry far away. ”
The tone was very harsh.
Zhang Fu said: "This person offered to let His Majesty marry the noble daughter of Warat. ”
The Ming Dynasty was strong, and Wara had to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty, and of course the relatives had to come upside down. This is probably the true idea of the noble son who proposed to make peace.
"......" Zhu Qizhen was speechless and said, "Nonsense." ”
How could he marry a woman from Warat?
"Yes." Zhang Fudao.
Zhu Qizhen didn't continue the topic anymore, and said, "Xuan Zhang Ning will meet you." ”
"Your Majesty, as usual, you must announce it after the list is released." Zhang Fudao.
"It's fine." Zhu Qizhen didn't save the minister's face for such a trivial matter.
…………
Today's list was released, Liu Nian came over early and dragged Zhang Ning to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to see the list.
Before reaching the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, the carriage had to stop. The sons and daughters of the nobles hurried over to see the list, and the carriages and guards blocked the road.
"Aning, let's get out of the car and walk over." Liu Nian couldn't wait to say, if only the list was released now, you can see your shining name on the list.
It is false to say that he is not nervous, Zhang Ning has also thought about it in the past two days, in case he is wrong, Zhu Qizhen actually wants to fight with him, and he will definitely fall off the list. After all, he had only seen Zhu Qizhen twice in a hurry, and his impression of the emperor mostly came from books, TV series, and evaluations on the Internet.
The real Zhu Qizhen, he didn't have time to understand.
But there was no turning back from the bow, the test paper had been handed in, and he could only wait for the result.
He tried to keep his mind calm, glanced at the guards who were riding on horses beside the carriage, and said, "It's still early, wait a little longer." ”
At noon, that is, at 11 o'clock in the morning, it is only the end of the hour, less than nine o'clock, what is the hurry?
"First come to take a good spot." Liu Nian said.
"You want to keep the list, right? If the name is not on the list, what does it have to do with arriving early and arriving late? ”
"Alas, A-Ning, you are not the same as before, you used to always rush to the front." Liu Nian sighed and complained, if he wanted to change to before, Zhang Ning would definitely be in front of him, where would he need to talk more?
I'm not the Zhang Ning I used to be. Zhang Ning said silently in his heart, and said in a calm tone: "Do you want to dominate the list for two hours?" ”
"We're going to fight, there's only two of us." Facing the reality, Liu Nian had no choice but to give up. The two of them can't beat more than 400 noble children.
There are unwritten rules for fighting, and guards cannot come forward to help.
