The poems and articles of Zhong Hanlin and Jinshi were written, but the emperor did not return from the table, and the discussion present became louder and louder.

Even if you guess, I don't know what the emperor is going to do, no one knows that the emperor is now holding a woman pretending to be the princess of the Cheshi Kingdom to go to Wushan, many people think that the emperor may have something to do temporarily, maybe he will come back soon.

On the other hand, Uncle Li and King Hui seemed to be ready to move.

Ji Ning squinted at Uncle Li and King Hui, who were exchanging glances, and thought, "Didn't you see that the emperor was sheltered in front of you and dared to rebel?" How confident are you to control the scene? ”

Looking at the crown prince again, the prince Zhao Yuangeng looked as usual, but as for the fifth prince Zhao Yuancheng, he looked a little anxious.

Ji Ning also had no way to judge whether Zhao Yuancheng knew about his mother and uncle's conspiracy.

Because Long Cheng was not there, no one was present to preside, and Zhang Junming, the left minister, stood up and was about to ask someone to go to see what was going on the emperor's side, but saw Zhao Kangzheng hurriedly take Long Cheng out from behind the barrier.

"I've kept you waiting!" Zhao Kangzheng came out, with a smug look on his face, and even his head was a little messy, and after he sat down, he didn't explain what he had done to the people present.

Ji Ning glanced at the prince, and from the prince's glance at Zhao Kangzheng with cold eyes, he guessed that the person pretending to be the princess of Cheshiguo was most likely sent by the prince.

"What is the purpose of the prince's this?" Ji Ning was still pondering this matter in his heart, and soon he thought of a very terrible result, "Could it be that the crown prince also wants to assassinate the emperor, let the emperor die, and let him inherit the throne?" A princess of Cheshiguo killed the emperor and then died, no one will suspect that this matter was done by the prince, and everyone thinks that it is the ambition of the wolf son of Cheshiguo, and it will be logical for the prince to ascend the throne at that time. ”

Thinking of this, Ji Ning began to realize the seriousness of the problem.

But he immediately thought again: "Even if the prince had this plan before, he will definitely stop it for the time being." King Hui, King Chong and the Li brothers and sisters joined forces to rebel, and with his ability alone, he couldn't suppress these people at all, and the prince had to cooperate with his father Zhao Kangzheng to eradicate King Hui and the others first. As for the person who pretends to be the princess of Cheshiguo, he can continue to stay in the palace, and there will be a chance to assassinate the emperor in the future anyway. ”

At this time, all the mysteries in Ji Ning's heart were solved.

……

……

"Ladies and gentlemen, first submit the poems and articles carefully written, and if any of you think you write well, you can also come out first, and invite the scholars of Ma University, as well as so many Confucians and ministers present, to comment together!" Zhao Kangzheng said with a smile.

This will make most of the jinshi dare not volunteer.

When it comes to the issue of face, if you do a good job, you will definitely be rewarded, but if you do not do a good job, it will leave a very bad impression on the emperor and the officials present, and it is tantamount to asking for trouble.

Most people want to maintain the status quo, first hand in their own articles, see who comes out to say their poetry articles, and then compare the gap in their hearts to decide whether to show it.

Ji Ning has no intention of paying attention to the competition in poetry and articles, whether it is good or bad, he is going to enter the Temple of Literature, and it is useless to leave a good impression on the emperor?

I helped your daughter rebel, and I also became your cheap son-in-law, but your daughter may never recognize me as a colt, so don't expect to wait for me to be recognized as your husband.

Looking at his father-in-law, Ji Ning suddenly felt pity for this lustful old man, as if except for his good daughter Zhao Yuanrong, everyone in the royal family coveted his throne, even the crown prince and the fifth prince.

It seems that no one is willing to come out and show themselves, but those Hanlin people in front of Ji Ning have no polite meaning.

A Hanlin came out and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the article he has written is a bit talented, and he wants to make a fool of himself in front of His Majesty!" ”

After saying this, when everyone's first impression was made, this person was so shameless, did he say that he was a little talented?

But the emperor seemed to like this tone very much, and he said: "Han Hanlin, I thought you were very talented before, and you should tell everyone about the article!" ”

"Yes!" This person turned around, and the students present were basically familiar with it.

This Han Hanlin once appeared at the Beijing Poetry Conference, he belonged to the examiner at that time, and the students present were all competing at that time, and now Han Hanlin also seems to be a teacher who wants to learn from the students, and he still feels amazing, and the people present are a little annoyed, but there is nothing to be done in their hearts.

Who said that he was not a member of the Hanlin Academy now?

Han Hanlin picked up the article he had written and recited: "On the night of Renxu, the ministers and ministers gathered in the south of the king, stargazing, and the four seas were dressed in ......."

As soon as Han Hanlin spoke, the people present basically understood his routine, where is this article about the suffering of the people, it is basically an article that praises the emperor of the Great Yong Dynasty, this kind of article, Hanlin Academy has to write hundreds of articles almost every year, and now it is more than the routine, it is more than how to poke the emperor's heart, it is useless to say it well, and the sycophants should be shot right.

It is not until the end of the article that the problem of civil suffering is mentioned slightly: "...... However, the prosperous world cannot be without poverty, and the saints must not be without mediocrity, and it is the luck of our generation to make a holy pilgrimage. ”

Then, Han Hanlin didn't say a word, put the article together, and saluted the emperor.

In terms of articles, it is not a very good article at all, because it was written in a hurry, and it seems mediocre in many places, but it is very useful to the emperor.

Ji Ning thought to himself: "Finally, what is the need to have poor people in a prosperous world, and saints must also be compared with mediocre people, which can be regarded as saying that the people are suffering?" This Han Hanlin is also such a sycophant, just ignore it! ”

"Good!" Zhao Kangzheng said with a smile, "Han Hanlin's article, to my ears, can be regarded as a rare good article in recent years, given to the white jade side!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Han Hanlin happily went up to receive the reward.

Others look at it, okay, this is easy, you can get a reward for writing a sycophant article, so why don't we hurry?

One of the Jinshi came out and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen also thinks that his article has merit!" ”

This is a tactful statement, just saying that his article is desirable, and the emperor smiled: "Just read it!" ”

The man took the article in his hand and said loudly: "On the night of the stars, I think of the wandering people from all over the world......

As soon as this article began, Ji Ning knew that this kid had hit the muzzle of the gun, and it was useless to say anything bad, saying that the people from all over the world were wandering from all over the world, even if you slapped the sycophants in the back.

Do you really think this sycophant is an easy job?

You have to be like Han Hanlin, first mix in the Hanlin Academy for a few years, find out the emperor's habits, let you expose it, even if there is only one sentence, it is enough to make the emperor tired of you.
