The two were silent for a while, and Xue also took a sip of tea, but because of the bitter taste of the tea, she couldn't help frowning slightly, and then, taking a deep breath, asked:

"Mr. Pei, how are these Chinese students?"

"What do you mean by 'how' Your Majesty?" Pei Xuanling asked rhetorically.

Xue lowered her head, and couldn't help but glance at Sima Cheng, saying that Pei Xuanling was strange by nature, so the way he spoke was the same as Sima Cheng, and it was not kind at all. In the end, Xue could only bite the bullet and said:

"Is there anyone who can become a climate?"

"Hmm......" Pei Xuanling thought thoughtfully, "It's uneven, if you ask if there is a ...... Naturally, there is. Pei Xuanling stroked his beard and narrowed his eyes.

"That'...... Do you have a recommendation? Xue leaned forward unconsciously, hoping to quickly get something out of Pei Xuanling's mouth.

"Hahaha......" Pei Xuanling chuckled, thoughtful.

"Your Majesty, the minister can only say that the son of the northern scholar family is good at the subset of history, the son of the south is good at poetry and songs, and the son of the Hu people is good at riding and shooting, and the rest will wait for Your Majesty to find out for himself."

"Mr. Pei sold me again." Snow was a little dissatisfied.

"Your Majesty...... This matter is not in a hurry, even if the minister recommends it to you, it is good that they are willing to follow His Majesty. Pei Xuanling said meaningfully.

Listening to Pei Xuanling's words, Xue felt ashamed for a while, lowered her eyebrows, and whispered, "Mr. taught a lesson." ”

"Besides, didn't Your Majesty say in the court, but to take the exam with the students, compete with the students, and choose officials according to the results...... So, if you say it yourself, you have to hold on to it, and instead of worrying about whether someone can make it, you should worry about your own learning. ”

Pei Xuanling turned his head and looked at the snow. Xue also nodded quickly and said:

"I know, I ...... It's just that I don't have a bottom in my heart. There was a hint of frustration in Xue's words.

"Hahaha, this is not a ready-made person to study with you." Pei Xuanling glanced at Sima Cheng, who immediately lowered his eyebrows and bowed his head respectfully.

Xue followed Pei Xuanling's gaze and saw that he saw Sima Cheng, so she nodded and said:

"Well, every day after I return to the palace, I study hard with Cheng Gongzi."

"Your Majesty, do you remember what the lower officials told you the last time you read "Zhuangzi"?" Pei Xuanling asked.

"Remember, you said, 'Obeying the principles of heaven, observing propriety, and doing one's best are the right way on earth.' Snow replied.

"What does that mean?" Pei Xuanling continued to ask.

"Obeying the will of heaven, following the etiquette, and trying to do what is within reach is the right path in the world." Snow replied.

"You inherit the light of the Buddha in front of the Queen Mother, it is in accordance with the will of heaven, you inherit the throne of Dayu, it is to follow the etiquette, at this moment you study hard, you are doing what you can." Pei Xuanling told the story.

Maybe Pei Xuanling thought that these words relieved Xue's heart, but who knows, every sentence is actually like a thorn, piercing Xue's heart.

The tragic truth is that these are all well-designed tricks, and she is not even Sima Ji, thinking of this, Xue couldn't help but sigh, and her eyes drooped.

Sima Cheng guessed Xue's thoughts, hesitated for a moment, and finally reached out and patted Xue's shoulder gently.

Xue felt the weight on his shoulders, turned his head suddenly, looked at Sima Cheng, his eyes couldn't help but be a little red, Sima Cheng saw this, frowned slightly, and shook his head slightly.

Xue naturally understood what he meant, and now she would not be so fragile and would not be stirred by Pei Xuanling's words. And it's not so much that her eyes were red just now, because of the mood brought about by lying, but because she was moved by understanding, at least Sima Cheng was still standing by her side.

Pei Xuanling continued to drink tea leisurely, looking at the green trees under the sun outside the door, and after a cup of tea was drunk, Pei Xuanling put down the teacup and said to Xue:

"On the day of the enthronement ceremony, does Your Majesty have any considerations?"

"It's not that I didn't think about it, it's just that I don't know much about the astronomical calendar and ritual sacrifices, so I just let the eunuch prepare things first." Snow had adjusted her mood, and she replied in a steady tone.

"The minister wants to recommend one person to His Majesty." Pei Xuanling got up and bowed his hand towards the snow.

"Oh, come on." There was some surprise in the snow.

"The second son of the palace, Sima Yun." Pei Xuanling said.

"Oh? Yun Gongzi ...... "Pei Xuanling's words came suddenly, Xue raised his head and glanced at Sima Cheng, who also looked at him at a loss.

"These days, the minister found that His Royal Highness Yun is not interested in the subset of scriptures and history, but is quite talented in poetry and songs, music, dance, astronomical calendars and other things outside the court, although His Royal Highness Yun's current knowledge is not systematic, but as long as a little guidance, it should be able to make achievements...... In addition, he is the son of the prince, belongs to the royal family, and is in charge of court etiquette, and the lower officials think it is very suitable. Pei Xuanling said.

When Xue heard this, she couldn't help but laugh secretly in her heart, poetry, songs, music, and dances may have been heard from Shi Hualou and from the singers and dancers. Pei Xuanling went on to say:

"The palace etiquette was originally in the hands of Dazai, one of the nine Qings, originally, in addition to being responsible for the palace etiquette, Dazai also has the right to seize the lord and cut the land, the minister believes that His Majesty does not need to resume this position, and set up a separate official to praise and entertain His Royal Highness, not to give real power, full authority for His Majesty's ceremonies, sacrifices, foreign tributes and other affairs, only obey Your Majesty's orders, you can."

Pei Xuanling mentioned what Xue was most worried about, after all, he said that he would wait for a month to unify the officials, if he suddenly gave Sima Yun a position, he would not be able to say anything about it in public or private, and if he was in power too much, it would inevitably attract the dissatisfaction of the important ministers in the court, this move was a clever plan, but I didn't know what Sima Yun thought......

Xue thought about it, and glanced back at Sima Cheng, only to see that Sima Cheng's face was complicated, and there seemed to be something unspeakable.

However, Pei Xuanling's proposal won Xue's heart, on the one hand, Xue urgently needed a ceremonial official to preside over the enthronement ceremony for him, and on the other hand, it was best for this person to be his own person, so as not to make any crooked thoughts about Sima Lie at the enthronement ceremony.

"Just according to Master Pei's wishes, I'll go and tell him in person later...... As for this official name...... Xue paused, "How about calling it 'Da Honglu' in the name of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty?" 'Hong' can refer to knowledge, and can also allude to the emperor's throne, and take the meaning of 'passing words'. ”

Xue thought for a long time, this official name can be regarded as having a basis, the key is that she doesn't want this official name to sound very formal, casual, or even a little like the official name of the inner court.

"Your Highness for the minister, thank you, Your Majesty." Pei Xuanling kowtowed and thanked him.
