Xuanzong's words were obviously joking, Wang Yuan stepped forward quickly, finished worshipping according to the etiquette he had learned before, and stood quietly aside after getting up.

"Zhongqing's family, do you know this Wang Yuan?" Xuanzong pointed at Wang Yuan and asked with a smile.

The officials looked at Wang Yuan and exchanged ears, and someone nodded and said: "Wang Yuan is a rookie in the literary world who has risen in Chang'an City recently, I haven't heard of it, but I didn't expect it to be a handsome young man." ”

"Yes, it's hard to imagine that the person who can write a sentence like 'raise a glass to eliminate sorrow is more sorrowful, and draw a knife to cut off the water and the water will flow more' is a teenager of this age."

"That's true, Wang Majie called it the material of Tianzhong, and gave him the name of Xiao Li Bai, I have long wanted to see Wang Yuan."

Xuanzong smiled, looked at Wang Yuan and said, "Not only are you confused, but when I first heard the name of Wang Yuan, I was also shocked to learn that he was only nineteen years old. I think it's been a long time since my Datang Dynasty has emerged from the sky, which is really a pity. As everyone knows, poetry is the quintessence of my Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty should be inherited and developed from generation to generation, and become the heirloom of the Heavenly Empire, the state of etiquette in my Tang Dynasty; But in the past few years, the talent in the literary world has withered, and I am also a person who loves poetry and literature, so I am indeed a little unhappy. ”

The ministers nodded their heads one after another, agreeing with Xuanzong's words. Indeed, in the past few years, the famous poets of the Tang Dynasty have grown old and gone into seclusion, and they have drifted away. Over the years, there have been few good poems circulating, and Li Taibai, who can carry the Tang Dynasty's cultural context, disappeared after leaving Chang'an, leaving the circle of the mainstream literary circle, and very few of his poems have been transmitted to the Chang'an literary circle. Wang Wei Gaoshi and others are considered to be the backbone, but in recent years, there have been few masterpieces coming out, but they often write some Zen landscape poems, which make people a little confused, and the entire Tang Dynasty literary world is indeed a little dull. This is something that everyone feels.

Li Bai is a natural talent, but it is a pity that he is too unruly and chic, and he does not want to be bound to the imperial court, so although he is full of talent, he has not been able to stay in Chang'an. After I gave the money back then, I was actually very regretful. I haven't heard from it for several years, and when I think of Li Bailai, it is still a barrier in my heart. Xuanzong sighed slightly, talking about Li Bai, Xuanzong's regrets in his heart are always difficult to eliminate.

However, many people understand that the so-called Li Bai's unwillingness to be bound to the imperial court is just a high-sounding statement, and Li Bai's departure from Beijing was not his own will, but a last resort. It was Xuanzong who ordered Li Bai to leave, because Li Bai really offended too many people. Between Li Bai and those who were annoyed by him, Xuanzong chose the latter, although this move was not necessarily a bad thing for Li Bai, but it was indeed a matter that Xuanzong felt very guilty about.

"Your Majesty, don't regret it, although Li Taibai is full of talent, it is a pity that he may not be suitable to be an official in the court and serve the court. It may not be a good thing to let him go, and someone has seen him in Shandong, he travels alone and makes friends, I don't know how comfortable he is, why should Your Majesty worry about him. Colliers advised.

"Is that really the case? That's great.,I don't know if there's a new work.。 Xuanzong's smile returned. Looking back at Wang Yuan, he said: "When I read Wang Yuan's poems for the first time, I felt that Wang Yuan's poems were very similar to Li Taibai's poetic style, and I thought they were poems written by Li Bai." Later, I learned that it was impromptu at the Pear Blossom Poetry Conference, and I believed one thing, that is, after Li Bai, there was another poetry genius in my Tang Dynasty. Wang Majie gave Wang Yuan the title of 'Little Li Bai', and I thought so. I was thinking, maybe it was to compensate me for the loss of Li Taibai, so God sent a little Li Bai to me, and I was very happy. ”

Wang Yuan's face was really panicked, he felt that he was a person who deceived the world and stole his name, but this feeling was fleeting, obviously his biggest advantage was to know the things of the next thousand years, if he didn't use this as capital, how could he control his fate and live in this era, would he be willing to live a lifetime without a name, and control his fate in the hands of others.

Xuanzong was still chattering: "Since such a talent has descended from heaven, how can I not show it, so yesterday I summoned Wang Yuan in Nannei to try his talents." In addition, Yang Zhao and several Mrs. Guo of the Yang Sect strongly recommended me, so that I made a decision to recruit Wang Yuan to serve in the Hanlin Academy, firstly, to show my Datang's love for talents, and secondly, to live up to the gift of God, what do you think? ”

The expressions of the ministers were a little shocked, not that they thought that Wang Yuan had been specially recruited to enter the Hanlin Academy, because this matter had been spread since yesterday, and it was already a sure thing when the palace sent an edict to seek the opinion of the political affairs hall, which was not surprising. They were surprised that the person who recommended Wang Yuan that His Majesty said was actually Yang Zhao and the coquettish ladies of the Yang family. In other words, this Wang Yuan has actually climbed into the relationship with the Yang family, which is a great thing.

This Wang Yuan was originally a guest of Zuo Xiang, but he somehow got into a relationship with the Yang family, thinking of the recent fact that Wang Yuan was invited to participate in Mrs. Qiuguo's Spring Festival, many people and officials immediately thought of another layer of relationship. Wang Yuan is well-cultivated, handsome, and a popular celebrity, and the Yang family's Mrs. Qiu Guo is famous for liking to mess with celebrities and children of Chang'an City, so the reason for this is easy to guess. Nine points to come.

The men winked at each other with ambiguous smiles. I thought in my heart: Several ladies of the Yang family are notorious, this Wang Yuan has nothing to do with the Yang family, how could he suddenly get their favor, needless to say that he was accepted by one or several ministers of the Yang family as ministers under the skirt, so he had this opportunity. Thinking like this, looking at Wang Yuan's eyes with some contempt and disdain.

Speaking of which, Wang Yuan's ability to stand here is still the credit of the two prime ministers. I heard that it was Li Shizhi, the left minister, who found Wang Yuan in the market and took him to participate in the Pear Blossom Poetry Club. Li Xiangguo is another active participant in the Pear Blossom Poetry Club, but it can be said that if there is no opportunity at the Pear Blossom Poetry Club, Wang Yuan will not have the opportunity to write those excellent poems and become a rookie in the poetry world recognized by everyone. The two prime ministers can be said to have worked together to make Wang Yuan famous all over the world. Xuanzong said with a smile.

"There, Wang Yuan is supported by His Majesty today, plus he has his own ability, and he has nothing to do with the old minister. It was suitable for his Bole, but for some reason he didn't recommend Wang Yuan. Li Linfu laughed and stabbed Li Shizhi a few words without pain.

Li Shizhi's face was blue and red, and his face was cloudy; Looking at Wang Yuan's eyes, it was quite unkind, but he had just finished his feathers today, and he seemed to know that it was no longer appropriate to make any high comments about Wang Yuan's affairs today.

"Li Xiangguo, do you have any objections to my intention to summon Wang Yuan to the Hanlin Academy? I asked for your opinion yesterday, and if you have any objections, you can raise them now. "Xuanzong finally returned to the topic.

In fact, everyone knows that the so-called solicitation of the opinions of the political hall is actually a formality; Although His Majesty has not been very diligent in his administration in recent years, his message from the palace is as unquestionable as before. It can even be said that in the past, there was room for discussion and change in some matters, but in recent years, as His Majesty has become older and older, all his words have become inviolable. The slightest disobedience will make him furious, and someone will always be unlucky because of this matter.

Therefore, unless there is indeed a serious error, and it will lead to extremely serious consequences, the government hall will never raise objections. And the special recruitment of Wang Yuan into the Hanlin Academy is just a trivial matter like a sesame seed, whether it is Li Linfu and Li Shizhi in the political affairs hall or even the owners of the houses below, how can they be so boring.

However, what is surprising is that Li Linfu's answer was not a promise, but expressed some doubts.

"Your Majesty, the ministers all agree with His Majesty's eclectic move to recruit talents for the country, and there is only the slightest doubt that needs to be confirmed."

"What's the doubt?" Xuanzong frowned.

Li Linfu humbly bowed his hand and said: "That's the case, the old minister knows that there was a special case of recruiting Li Bai into Hanlin before, and this time it can be regarded as following the precedent, but it is not against the precedent." It's just that His Majesty's oracle yesterday didn't understand it a little. ”

"Where unknown?" Xuanzong Dao.

"The old minister heard the word that His Majesty summoned Wang Yuan to the Hanlin Academy as a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, not as a servant of the Hanlin Academy. If the minister remembers correctly, when His Majesty summoned Li Bai to the Hanlin Academy, he was called to serve as the Hanlin Academy. The old minister wanted to find out whether it was a mistake in the oral message or some other reason; After all, the Hallym Scholar and the Hallym Academy are different positions. Judging from the precedent summoned by Li Bai, the minister thought that the inner servant who passed the oracle had made a mistake. ”

The Hanlin Scholars are not the same as the Hanlin Offerings, the Hanlin Scholars work in the Hanlin Academy, and these scholars are responsible for drafting edicts for His Majesty the Emperor, calling for questions at any time, and explaining questions for the Emperor, and can be regarded as advisors or personal secretaries to His Majesty the Emperor. The former prime minister Zhang Jiuling used to be a bachelor of Hanlin, and later he was directly transferred to the political hall to become the prime minister, which shows that the position of bachelor of Hanlin does not seem to be high, but in fact, the potential is unlimited, and it is the most popular position in the world...... The Hanlin Temple worship is just a false name, not a real job, just a good reputation, but no actual power. At that time, Li Bai was the worship of the Hanlin Academy, so Brother Li Bai felt unhappy that he was not taken seriously, and he bought drunk and messed around in Chang'an City every day, and was finally driven out of the capital.

"Did I say that I was called to be a Hanlin Scholar? Lux, do you remember what I said?" Xuanzong himself was a little confused.

"Your Majesty, the old slave remembers that you said that you called Wang Yuan as a Hanlin Bachelor, but you said that he was a Hanlin Bachelor with no grade or rank." Colliers faithfully restored the original words of the day.

Xuanzong nodded slowly, and suddenly said, "I remember your reminder, I did say that I called him a non-grade Hanlin Scholar." That's because I don't want to be too gracious, so I don't want to give Wang Yuan grade. But Wang Yuanwen is good, and I want him to help me do some practical things, and part of Li Bai's complaining back then is because I didn't give him a real job, so I can't repeat the mistakes of the past, and I can't perfunctory Wang Yuan with the position of worship, and I thought about giving him the name of a bachelor. ”

"I see." Li Linfu smiled and nodded: "The minister just asks clearly, and the old minister also admires Wang Yuan's talent and learning." At the Pear Blossom Poetry Conference, the old minister once had the intention of recommending Wang Yuan, but because Wang Yuan was a guest in Li Zuoxiang's mansion, the old minister was not good at overstepping his bounds. Unexpectedly, it was not Li Zuoxiang who recommended Wang Yuan, but Yang Duzhilang and several Mrs. Guo, which was very unexpected. ”

Li Shizhi has suffered enough blows today, Li Linfu still found an opportunity to stab him, in short, how to make Li Shizhi disgusting and uncomfortable, he is very vicious.

Li Shizhi was like a wooden man who didn't say a word, bearing the sarcasm and humiliation of Li Linfu in front of him, but he had no chance to fight back.

"Since all the secretaries have no opinions, let's make an order." Xuanzong said loudly.

Gao Lishi unfolded the prepared will to read it out in the hall, Wang Yuan shouted long live to receive the decree and thanks, and the official clothes and hats were awarded by the special person in the hall, and the attendants waited to put them on, and the official clothes were put on, and he immediately jumped from a small man in cloth clothes to a bachelor of Hanlin.

The early dynasty also came to an end, and after the ministers sent Xuanzong to retreat to the palace, the palace suddenly made an uproar. Many officials stepped forward to congratulate them, and those who didn't know each other came up to be polite, which is the way of officialdom.

Especially after knowing that Wang Yuan was recommended by the Yang family, no one wanted to be rude so as not to offend Wang Yuan unintentionally. Wang Yuan returned the salute with a smile one by one, and suddenly saw Li Shizhi looking at him behind the crowd with a blue face, and after thinking about it, he stepped forward and bowed his hand.

"Li Zuoxiang, I sincerely thank you for your past excavation and support, if there is no Zuoxiang, I can have today."
