After Fang Xuanling left, Li Shimin thought about it and instructed Du Junxuan: "Go and call Du Yan." ”

"Yes, my lord." Du Junsui was ordered to retreat.

Li Shimin picked up the article given to him by Fang Xuanling and read it carefully.

Du Yan was in the house and sighed with Du Ruhui: "Tomorrow's Shangsi Festival feast, only officials and family members of the third grade and above can participate, although you and I are not of enough grade, but you are close to the King of Qin, the King of Qin has already said, take you and Fang Xuanling to participate in the feast."

"It seems that my nephew is more promising, and I will rely on you nephew in the future."

"Uncle is serious." Du Ruhui was humble: "My nephew has only been with King Qin for a little longer, and when it comes to learning, my nephew is not as good as my uncle."

"Especially my uncle's article, which is brilliant and beyond the reach of my nephew.

"My nephew believes that in time, King Qin will definitely discover his uncle's talent and reuse it."

Regarding this, Du Yan expressed doubts, he has been in the Qin Palace's mansion for so long, and he has not been reused at all.

At this moment, the servant came to report: "Ah Lang, Du Lang of the Qin Palace's Mansion is coming." ”

"Please."

After Du Junxuan came in, he directly explained his intention: "King Qin wants to see Du Lushi, please follow me to King Qin's mansion now." ”

Du Yan got up: "General Du Lang, please allow me to change my clothes." ”

Du Junxuan glanced at him, and said expressionlessly: "No need to change, let's leave now, if you delay any longer, I'm afraid you won't be able to come back before the curfew." ”

Hearing this, Du Yan gave up changing clothes, tidied up his regular clothes a little, and followed Du Junqiu to the Qin Palace.

The housekeeper looked worried: "Ah Lang, King Qin called Lu Shi to go alone, will something happen?" ”

"No, it won't." Du Ruhui said with certainty: "If something bad happens, it concerns my uncle, and the King of Qin will definitely ask me to go with me." ”

......

Qin Wangfu.

The closer he got to Li Shimin's study, the more panicked Du Yan's heart became, wouldn't King Qin know that he wanted to join the prince?

is the so-called thief with a weak heart, Du Yan's mood at the moment is like this, he is afraid that what he is doing will be known by Li Shimin.

"I've seen the king." Du Yan lowered his head, hid his hand in his sleeve and clenched it into a fist, forcing himself to calm down.

Li Shimin glanced at his sleeve and said with a smile: "Today, Fang Xuanling showed me a few of your articles, and I found out that your articles are very well written." ”

Du Yan raised his head in surprise and found that Li Shimin was holding a stack of paper in his hand, and looking at the handwriting on it, it was very similar to his handwriting.

"It turns out that there are still such talents in the house, but I was negligent before, and talents should not be buried."

Li Shimin thought for a moment and said, "Since your article is so well written, let's go to the Literature Museum to become a bachelor."

"You once served as a secretary under Wang Shichong, and it is indeed a bit overkill to let you do the recording, so let's do it, you first serve as a soldier to join the army, if you do a good job in the future, I will promote you to an official."

Du Yan was a little confused, what's going on?

King Qin shouldn't have found out that he wanted to take refuge with the crown prince, right? Otherwise, he will not be promoted.

"The king is promoted, and his subordinates dare not be ashamed." Du Yan was happy in his heart, but he was very modest on his face.

Li Shimin really thinks that Du Yan's article is well written, so his tone is very sincere: "Don't be modest, among the bachelors in the Literature Museum, your article should be in the top three."

"Come, sit here, I want to talk to you about this article you wrote."

......

After Du Yan returned home, he still couldn't hide his excitement.

Not only because Li Shimin was promoted to his official, but because in the process of discussing the article with Li Shimin, he found that Li Shimin's literary talent was not lower than him, and they could resonate in many places.

At this moment, Du Yan's heart was no longer shaken.

"Uncle, what did King Qin ask you to do?" Seeing Du Yan's trance, Du Ruhui couldn't help but ask.

Hearing Du Ruhui's voice, Du Yan came back to his senses and said with a smile: "It's nothing important, it's that King Qin promoted me to join the army as a soldier, and appointed me as a bachelor of the Literature Museum......

Du Ruhui was stunned for a moment, and then congratulated him: "Congratulations uncle." ”

Du Chuke, who was sitting on the side, was also very happy: "This is a happy event, congratulations to my uncle." ”

He said to Du Ruhui again: "Second brother, you are a bachelor of the Literature Museum, and now your uncle is also a bachelor of the Literature Museum, and you can work together in Tiance Mansion in the future." ”

Du Yan was overjoyed and said another piece of good news: "King Qin said, let me go to the palace tomorrow to participate in the feast." ”

Hearing this, Du Chuke showed an envious expression: "King Qin values his uncle and second brother so much, it's really enviable.

"Alas...... I don't know when I can also enter the palace to participate in the feast? ”

Du Ruhui patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "As long as you do your own errand, this day will come soon."

"Uncle's promotion is a happy event, and our family will celebrate it tonight."

Then he ordered his servants to prepare supper.

......

The second day, the third day of the third month of March, is the Shangsi Festival.

Because the feast of the Shangsi Festival was scheduled to start at noon, those officials who were eligible to participate in the feast simply stayed in the palace after the dispersal of the court, and the female dependents entered the palace a little later.

The banquet is not divided into men and women, but they are all in the Hanzhang Hall, but they sit opposite each other.

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and Du Yan were not eligible to participate in the court meeting, so they entered the palace after the court meeting.

On the way to Hanzhang Palace, they met Li Yuanji and Li Yi.

"I've seen King Qi and King Yan." The three of them saluted respectfully.

Li Yi stopped and looked at the three of them unscrupulously: "Yo, isn't this Bachelor Fang and Bachelor Du from the Literature Museum?"

"No, there's a new bachelor."

Du Yan sighed in his heart, did the news spread so quickly?

Before he could react, a pair of delicate deer antler leather boots appeared in front of him, followed by a strong force from his chin, forcing him to look up and meet a pair of playful eyes.

The playful gaze was like a teasing little lady, and Du Yan suddenly felt a burst of humiliation, and his stomach churned.

"King Yan, please respect yourself."

Du Yan raised his hand and grabbed Li Yi's wrist, wanting to break his hand away, but without success.

So, he used his hands and tried his best, but he still couldn't get rid of Li Yi's clamps.

Because he was pushing too hard, Du Yan's face turned red, and he glared at Li Yi angrily: "King Yan, what do you want to do?" Let go of me. ”

"King Yan, let go." Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling were angry and rushed to help.

"If it's not loose, so what?" Li Yi pushed Du Ruhui away with one palm.

Fang Xuanling was behind Du Ruhui, Du Ruhui was pushed and knocked down Fang Xuanling, and the two of them fell to the ground, very embarrassed.

Du Yan was angry, glared at Li Yi and said, "King Yan, this is the palace, not a place for you to go wild casually." ”

"Heh~" Li Yi let out a sneer, and then said loudly: "You don't even have the qualifications to participate in the court meeting, and you dare to come to participate in the Shangsi Festival feast?"

"Trespassing on the palace is a capital offense.

"Come on, drag them down and lock them up first."

When the words fell, Li Yi shook it hard, Du Yan fell out, his head hit the ground, and blood flowed out instantly......
