Chapter 18: Falling Flowers and Birds Scattering Ten
The re-examination was carried out in Ziting, which was known as the "Ziting retest" in history.
There are two examiners for the "Ziting retest". One is Wang Qi, and the middle scholar Wang Qi. The other is Bai Juyi, the host and guest Lang Zhongzhi Bai Juyi. It's a paradoxical combination, very paradoxical.
According to the usual practice, work such as re-examination is generally performed by Hallym Bachelors. This time, however, the situation was somewhat different: two of the six Hanlin scholars were plaintiffs, and one was hiding in the shadows and shooting black guns. Perhaps, for the sake of fairness, Li You enabled Wang Qi to be Bai Juyi. However, does this combination really embody the so-called fairness?
Wang Qi, who once served as the secretary of Li Deyu's father, was very close to Li Deyu. In addition, Wang Qi also has an elder brother named Wang Bo, the former Xichuan Festival envoy Wang Bo. Wang Bo once coveted the throne of prime minister, and Duan Wenchang, the prime minister at that time, strongly recommended it. Who will he lean towards, you say?
Bai Juyi's situation is more complicated.
Bai Juyi has a wife, surnamed Yang; The Yang family has an elder brother, the elder brother of the in-laws, named Yang Rushi. Bai Juyi and Yang's matchmaker is called Yang Yuqing, and Yang Yuqing has a close friend named Li Zongmin. Wrap around, right? Don't worry, there's more! Once, Bai Juyi had a colleague, a colleague from the Hanlin Academy, whose name was Qian Hui. Once, they sang poems and texts, and also left a good story of "Lianfu Qingyi quilt, opposite to the pillow".
It seems that Bai Juyi should be a sympathizer for the defendant. Actually, not necessarily!
First of all, judging from his consistent performance, Bai Juyi doesn't seem to attach much importance to his kinship with Yang Rushi. As for the matchmaker's close friends, how can we talk about it? What Bai Juyi really cares about seems to be Qian Hui, the former colleague of the Hanlin Academy.
Secondly, Bai Juyi, who is constantly arguing with the defendant and sorting out the mess, has a relationship with the plaintiff, which is not simple, very not simple. The three plaintiffs standing in the open place are all friends of Bai Juyi. Among them, one is Duan Wenchang, who has a good relationship; One is Li Shen, who has a very good relationship; There is another one, which is a very good relationship with Yuan Zhen.
Bai Juyi and Yuan Zhen are not only the same year, but also close friends.
Bai Juyi and Yuan Zhen are in the same year, and they are in the same year of double materials, because they are both the same year of tribute and the same year of the system. Think about how Xiao Li, Linghu Chu and Huangfu came together, you will understand how important the same year is!
When a former colleague encounters the same year, where the balance of Bai Juyi's feelings tends is a question.
Bai Juyi and Yuan Zhen are friends, literary friends who sing and sing poetry, drinking friends who push glasses and change lamps, close friends who talk about everything, and comrades-in-arms who jointly launched the New Yuefu Movement.
When a friend meets a friend, where will the balance of Bai Juyi's feelings lean?
Therefore, Bai Juyi, who is in a dilemma, has the most likely choice to be neutral, if not more inclined to the plaintiff.
Just be neutral! After all, we still have Wang Qi!
It seems that the two examiners, one is an ally of the plaintiff and the other is a relative of the defendant, fair, fair and fair!
I believe that such a paradoxical combination, such a genius idea, must be the handiwork of Yuan Zhen. Because, Li You, our young genius, is really not that smart! You just beat him to death, and he can't come up with such a genius idea.
