"The minister begs His Majesty to take back his order, return Li Zhuangyuan a justice, and return a justice to the world's scholars!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting above, was furious, his face suddenly turned cold, his face changed to the extent that he was comparable to turning a book, and his sharp gaze shot straight at Xu Guan at the door. At noon, the temperature in the room seemed to drop by one or twenty degrees suddenly, leaving everyone in the hall at a loss.

The Son of Heaven was angry, ambushed millions of corpses, and the blood flowed and drifted!

When everyone in the hall saw this situation, they all noticed that something was wrong, but because of the momentum exuded by Zhu Yuanzhang at this time, no one dared to stand up at all, and shouted in time to stop Xu Guan.

Li Qian didn't expect that this Xu Da Zhuangyuanlang, who was even in the middle of the three yuan, would suddenly come to make trouble. He frowned slightly, and after thinking about it carefully, he found that he didn't seem to have offended the other party, why was this?

With such a ranking, Xu Guan should be a person with vested interests, so why bother to stir up the situation?

The incident happened suddenly, and Li Qian finally escaped, and he really couldn't think of a good way to deal with it for a while. He really couldn't understand what kind of grudge he and Xu Guan had, which led to ------ love and kill each other?

However, despite the complicated things, it is undoubtedly Xu Guan who offends Tianyan at this moment, even if Zhu Yuanzhang will be angry because of this, he should not be angry with himself, and if he rashly speaks out to stop it, it will cause the emperor's displeasure.

In line with the principle that more things are better than less, Li Qian could only stand aside silently and wait for the changes.

Anyway, his life should be saved.

Xu Guan, who has already angered Zhu Yuanzhang, still doesn't seem to know about it. He hurried to save people, his forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat at the moment, but he didn't have time to wipe it, and still said to himself: "The imperial court opened a department to take scholars, and he should be a meritocracy!" How can Your Majesty appoint the champion based on his own likes and dislikes? Li Zhongqing is not resentful, how can His Majesty condemn him for this? ”

"You mean, I'm unfair?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's old but godly eyes narrowed slightly, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes became deeper, and the deep tone seemed to come from the depths of his throat. A chill unconsciously appeared in the hearts of everyone present, and it could not be dispersed.

The few people present are not stupid people, and no matter how bad their skills are, they can see that this dragon ------ Siberian tiger is on the verge of madness at this moment.

Xu Guan realized that he was half a beat slower than others. It was only at this time that he noticed the full anger in Zhu Yuanzhang's chest, but he still stubbornly replied: "Yes!" ”

In between, his eyes also glanced at Li Qian on the side, and threw an open-minded smile at the other party to show that he was open-minded.

Originally, he hadn't thought of standing up to protest this before, after all, no one would fail in the palace exam, and the change in ranking was just a little grievance for Li Qian. After all, there are not many scholars who are famous now, and even fewer are from Jinshi, even if they are just a top three Jinshi, they all have the same opportunity to be reused.

Looking at the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, there are not many officials who were born as Jinshi, so naturally this will not affect Li Qian's career.

In comparison, the champion is just a little more glamorous than Jinshi. After the award is over, the name of the champion will gradually be forgotten by everyone, and only occasionally mentioned in small talk.

However, what I didn't expect was that this young and vigorous person in the same year disobeyed the holy order in a fit of anger, and didn't even go to a grand ceremony such as the Chuan Yu Ceremony------

In this way, if this new science and technology scholar is about to die, although Xu Guan and him only have a few sides of contact and have no deep friendship, they can't bear to watch this happen. In addition, he still felt a little guilty about Li Qian, so he made such a "righteous and thin" decision, and he didn't even understand the current situation and came to the Qianqing Palace to "speak up".

This is really a good thing to do, Li Qian seemed to understand the meaning in his eyes, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head. He can see it now, Xu Guan is indeed kind enough to come to intercede for himself, and he really has no reason to blame him.

Intuition told Li Qian that Xu Guan did not have some bad intentions, and it was indeed righteous to come forward to intercede this time. Strictly speaking, Xu Guan is still a ------good person?

It's just that ------ the boiling power of the desolation in his body is swollen?

Li Qian quickly came to a conclusion that many times, good people are more hateful than bad people! They pit people, that's really the kind of pit that will not stop if you don't kill you.

Could it be that this is the legendary "pig teammate"?

Thinking of this, Li Qian felt an inexplicable sadness. Which bastard released the rumor that formed a group to brush Zhu Yuanzhang, the big boss, and dropped the purple suit? I promise not to kill him!

Looking up at the sky at a forty-five degree angle------ on the hall, Li Qian's eyes were red, and his expectant gaze happened to meet Zhu Yuanzhang sitting in the hall, and he shouted wildly in his heart: "Quick, kill this bastard!" ”

Of course, the premise is that the big boss Zhu Yuanzhang can kindly let himself go.

But all talented people are relatively arrogant in their bones, which is a perception given by today's readers.

As the founder of the country, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally doesn't like those arrogant people very much. Li Qian, a literati, gave him a good impression before, but the other party suddenly lost his temper and did not come to participate in the ceremony, which made him very unhappy.

As for Li Qian's reason for returning to his hometown, he never believed it. It's just that he has some pity in his heart, and the lyrics offered by the other party just now have made his original anger disappear a lot.

But I didn't expect that it was not only Li Qian himself who had some complaints about himself in his heart, but even the jinshi in this subject, including the champion in front of him, all looked at him like this.

As the Son of Heaven, if you let people sit on your own unfair reputation, how can you save face?

Zhu Yuanzhang only thought for a moment, then made a decision, and immediately sneered: "The imperial court has always been meritocracy, so why is it unfair?" ”

"Come, escort these two out of the noon gate------"

Zhu Yuanzhang gave the order, and when he looked at Li Qian with cold eyes, his words were stagnant, and he was a little hesitant in his heart for a while.

When Li Qian heard this, he couldn't help but feel excited, and said in his heart, "You are Zhu Hongwu, and it's not that I shouted that it was unfair to take the soldiers, but you also want to carry me together and push me out of the noon gate to be beheaded?

Zhu Yuanzhang was only slightly different, and after a while, he continued: "Thirty sticks each, to set an example!" ”

Only then did Li Qian know that he had misunderstood Zhu Yuanzhang. The real beheading was not carried out at noon, but the execution at the entrance of the vegetable market that he was fortunate enough to witness before, but he was too nervous just now to forget about such a thing.

I couldn't help but feel a little guilty about Zhu Yuanzhang in my heart, but it quickly became unhappy. Although thirty boards are not much, but beating is beating, and it's not me talking nonsense, why should I be implicated? Hum!

What he didn't know was that the court staff would also kill people, it just depended on whether the emperor wanted you to die under the staff. If you really want to kill you, the executioner will be able to kill you with dozens of boards.

Li Qian is arrogant and arrogant, but there is also joy in his heart, after all, he snatched back this little life from Zhu Yuanzhang, and he must cherish it more in the future.

Sensing that Xu Guan seemed to be about to open his mouth to protest, he hurriedly moved two steps to the side urgently, and quickly stabbed the other party with his elbow, which could be regarded as waking up this stunned champion.

Xu Guan then remembered his intention, since Li Qian's life was saved, he really shouldn't continue to be strong, otherwise the two brothers would die together, but it would not be good.

Thinking of this, he smiled back, indicating that he could bear the thirty boards that he had been recruited for nothing. In his opinion, he was implicated by Li Qian because of such a meal of bamboo shoot barbecue.

Li Qian was about to cry, what a "righteous and thin cloud" Xu Da Yuanlang, you are really bad luck for eight lifetimes, don't you hurt me to die? Lao Tzu had a good shot of the sycophant just now, you actually came here to stir up the situation, are you wronged me?!!

At the moment, the two of them could only obediently let a few guards escort them down------

In the hall, Zhu Yuanzhang just waved his hand and sent Shen Wei and the others away.

After being silent for a long time, he suddenly reached out and lifted the wolf hair on the table, quickly put pen to paper in front of him, and wrote down Li Qian's poem. The vigorous and powerful grass, coupled with this majestic lyrics, shows its rugged and heroic, as if it was tailor-made for him.

After writing a poem, Zhu Yuanzhang went back and looked at the name of the word plate of "Qinyuan Spring", only to remember that Li Qian did not name the poem. After pondering for a while, he finally resisted the idea of naming the word, leaving a blank ------ here as the Son of Heaven, Brother Zhu still has to have some face, and other people's things are named without authorization, and there is something wrong with it.

Then, he put the poem aside and wrote four big words on the next piece of paper - amazing!

took a small piece of white jade and stamped it, and then handed the ink treasure to the eunuch standing on the side, and instructed: "Go, give this thing to Li Qian------ by the way, tell him that I remember his filial piety, and give him a special gift to return to his hometown, go back to his father!" ”

"Obey ------"

As soon as the eunuch withdrew, the little yellow door at the door came in again and reported: "Your Majesty, the father and son have been ordered to arrive in Beijing and are waiting for the summons outside the palace." ”

"Hmph, it's another piece of uncarved jade------ let them in!"
