By the time Lin Feng and his entourage arrived at the Jinling Academy, the other examiners had already revised their papers for a long time.

Lin Feng briefly explained to Situ Zhouzong the reason for being late, and hurriedly walked to his place, grabbed a test paper and changed it.

There was no word for a while, only the sound of rustling scrolls, and there were many fewer students who entered the palace to deliver manuscripts, and only one or two people came in for a long time.

At the time of eating at noon, Lin Feng took advantage of the fact that others were not paying attention and said a word to Shi Xubai softly, Shi Xubai nodded slightly and kept it in his heart.

By dusk, Lin Feng's desk had piled up nearly two hundred manuscripts that had been corrected, and there were still not many eye-catching works in the manuscripts, compared to the number of mediocre works, it was still the relationship between pearl and gravel, and Lin Feng only sent out eight laps of the whole day.

Lin Feng still dragged to the back, and after chatting with Zhou Zong for a few words, he left the school palace together.

Sitting in the carriage arranged by the school palace, Lin Feng specially signaled the coachman to walk slowly. When passing by a branch of "Jueweifang", Lin Feng couldn't help but say, pulled eight forbidden soldiers and coachmen to the restaurant, and had a delicious meal.

When Lin Feng rushed back to the mansion, sure enough, Han Xizai, a member of the Yu department, was already sitting in the study waiting for him to come back.

Lao Han pointed to the forbidden army outside the study, and said narrowly: "Eight forbidden soldiers are personal guards, you are amazing!" ”

Lin Feng smiled bitterly: "Alas, there is no way to carry out many things like this, it is really annoying!" ”

Lao Han nodded very sympathetically, shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Lord Chang Mengxi, Lord Jiang Wenwei, Lord You Jianyan, Brother Weiyan and the best you, you have all gone to be examiners." In the past few days, the people of the original Song Party in the court have jumped up and down, and they are very active! ”

"Oh, what are the signs?" Lin Feng immediately asked.

"The main thing is that the old things are brought up again, and many people have begun to re-propose the candidates for the head of the Academy of Sciences, and they have recommended themselves, and the most puzzling thing is that a petty official actually proposed to invite Feng Yansi back to serve as the president of the Academy of Sciences. He Feng Yansi can do this, and I write it backwards in Korean characters. Han Xizai said angrily and funny.

When Lin Feng heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, there is the emperor's request, and now someone has come forward to mention this matter, I am afraid that Feng Yansi's return to the court is a foregone conclusion.

"By the way, what's the important thing you asked me to come here quietly? Isn't it always trying to invite me to a bar? Han Xizai looked up and smiled.

Lin Feng didn't hide it, and told his subordinates about Song Qiqiu's continuous night visit to King Yan.

"Ah, this ...... This ......" Han Xizai was shocked, suddenly stood up, pointed at Lin Feng, and said with a stutter, "This matter is very important, this is a major event that affects the stability of the court, the reform of Datang, and the future of Datang!" ”

The distraught Lin Feng also stood up and paced in the study.

Yes, it is conceivable that Song Qiqiu, who is unwilling to quit the court, and Li Hongji, who has always been ambitious, as soon as these two meet, no matter what the purpose is, and no matter what idea they plot, the matter itself already means that the originally stable court will gradually enter the whirlpool of the struggle for the succession to the throne! In all dynasties, this whirlpool is a Pandora's box, and it doesn't talk about any sentiment, and it doesn't care about the people of the country, it's just a bloody process of landing on the head!

"Father Qing is not dead, and it is difficult to end! Hateful old thief Song! The old thief Song who was killed by the sky! The more Han Xizai thought about it, the more angry he became, and he couldn't help but scold. During the Spring and Autumn Period, the greedy and cruel, power-hungry, and extremely bad character of Qing's father once killed two Lu monarchs in a row, making the Lu country restless, thus leaving this saying. Han Xizai used Qinggong to refer to Song Qiqiu, and he really hated it to the extreme.

"Isn't this the villain, he only has himself in his eyes, and he has never been a country! Brother Han, let's dissipate our anger first. Come, take a sip of tea! Lin Feng hurriedly grabbed Han Xizai, pressed him on the stool, and handed him a cup of tea.

Han Xizai didn't have the heart to drink at all, so he slammed the teacup on the table, gasping for breath in his nose.

"In Lin's opinion, no matter how the two conspire, in the current situation, the basic way is nothing more than how to make Li Hongji establish a great meritorious service to prove that Li Hongji is a reliable heir." Lin Feng pondered for a moment and spoke.

"It seems that only the political and military directions can plot. The army, now that there is nothing in the world, and the king of Qi is in control of the world's soldiers and horses, Li Hongji should not be stupid enough to hit a nail. That's only political affairs, and it won't be that Song Laothief will let Li Hongji also compete for the position of host of the Academy of Sciences, right? Han Xizai took a long breath and said softly.

"Probably not. First, Li Hongji doesn't understand these at all; The two, for a 'prince' who is in the right position, is afraid that he will not look down on this academy, this pool is too small, not enough for him to flutter! Lin Feng analyzed.

"Could it be—" Han Xizai's eyes lit up, and he stood up sharply again.

"Don't say, let's write a word each and see if we have the same heart!" Lin Feng hurriedly stopped him.

"Good!" Han Hee-jae picked up the paper and pen and wrote. Lin Feng did the same.

"Come on, let's see if we think the same thing!" Han Xizai spread out the slip of paper he had written, and the words "festival place" were written on it.

Lin Feng smiled, removed his palm, and showed what he had written.

"Serving place! Perfection, sure enough, the hero sees the same thing! Han Xizai read it out and couldn't help laughing.

Lin Feng saw that this little episode successfully diverted Han Xizai's anger, so he continued to analyze: "Assuming that they choose this path, there are two different possibilities, one is to comply with the reform, and the other is not to carry out the reform, and we have to make separate response plans." ”

"The best of thought and thoughtfulness, indeed. Let's talk about it now. Han Xizai sighed and sat back in his seat with a solemn expression.

The facts are clear there! Because they supported the reform of the Southern Tang Dynasty and supported Lin Feng, who was discovered by King Zheng, Chang Mengxi, Xiao Yan, Jiang Wenwei, You Jianyan, and Han Xizai, no matter what they think, in the eyes of the world and the courtiers, they have all been classified as supporters of King Zheng, and they will have to face the maelstrom of inheritance competition sooner or later, and they can't hide if they want to! Therefore, no matter what trick the other party makes, they have only one choice, and that is to take it!

Just when Lin Feng and the others were secretly thinking, Emperor Li Jing, who was sitting in the imperial study, was reciting two small words in a low voice.

"Spring, spring, still green and purple. The sun is slanting and the willows are wilting, and the drunken boy is lying down. Young, young, and happy as soon as possible. ”

"The bright moon, the bright moon, shines so sadly. The deeper shadow enters the empty bed, and the night is not long. Long night, long night, dreaming of the shade of the garden flowers. ”

"Good two songs "Three Taiwan Orders"! Happy early, sad to leave, Feng Zhengzhong, I also miss the relaxed time when the prince of the East Palace was very much! Li Jing muttered, raised the delicate note in his hand to his eyes again, and chanted again.

After a while, Li Jing stopped chanting and shouted loudly: "Come on, draft the will!" ”
