The three of them didn't have anything to talk about with each other, so they simply didn't speak, and listened carefully to the voices in the hall.

"Your Majesty, General An Lushan has already rushed to the border with his army, and he will join General Shi Siming." The military department Shangshu bowed and said.

"Well, I ordered An Lushan and Shi Siming to step up their training to guard against a sudden attack by Tubo." Li Longji, who was on the dragon chair, nodded and said.

At this time, another person came out and bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the Ministry of Flood Danger in Jiangnan has come up with a detailed strategy that can be implemented immediately, but it is necessary to send an official to the governor of Jiangnan to do everything." ”

Li Longji nodded, the floods in the south of the Yangtze River have been going on for a long time, and it is not an overnight thing to deal with, so you have to go to a trustworthy official.

"Yao Xiang, the matter of selecting officials will be discussed by you and the Ministry of Officials, and a list will be drawn up and sent to me."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Yao Chong took a step forward and bowed slightly, then retreated.

"Your Majesty, the three students of the first class in the imperial examination are already waiting outside the hall, you can see ......" It was Gao Lishi next to Li Longji who spoke, and the little father-in-law just came to tell Gao Lishi that the students had arrived.

"What else do you have to do?" Li Longji asked.

Seeing that there was no movement below, Li Longji nodded and said, "Okay, then announce that the three students of this class will come in." ”

"Xuanyijia students are here." Colliers shouted loudly after receiving the order.

In fact, this sentence is used to remind the people outside the hall, they are not officials, so naturally they can't come in by themselves, so this sound is to remind the three people outside the hall and the little father-in-law who led them in.

"Three, Your Majesty has summoned you, come with me." The little father-in-law's voice was calm and there were no waves.

Cui Zheng and Wang Yao hurriedly tidied up their clothes, but Yin Que didn't care, and then the three of them followed the little father-in-law into the palace.

The little father-in-law couldn't go too far in, but symbolically led the three of them to walk a distance and then retreated on his own.

"Student Cui Zheng (Li Bai, Wang Yao) See Your Majesty!" The three of them stepped forward and bowed.

The etiquette of the Tang Dynasty did not need to kneel when going to court or seeing a driver, just bowing and saluting, not to mention that the three of them were famous.

Li Longji and the ministers looked at the three people standing in the middle of the main hall, the three of them were all not handsome, not to mention handsome, but also a little handsome, plus the grade was not big, the vitality of the young man was fully revealed.

"Well, good!" Li Longji opened his mouth and said, "The three of you are the top three this time?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." The three of them bowed in unison again.

Li Longji already knew the names of the three first-class people this time, and he was also a little stunned when he just got the news, usually the first three were all taken by the family, how could Li Bai appear this time, this time there is something to see between the families.

The entire history of the Tang Dynasty can be said to be the history of the struggle with the family gate, each generation of emperors spared no effort to suppress the family, but had to use the family, this feeling made each generation of emperors extremely uncomfortable, and now someone suddenly appeared to disrupt the interests of the family, which is exactly what Li Longji is happy to see.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a good song." A man in an official uniform with two mustaches on his face walked out.

"Zheng Yushi, what do you have to do?" Li Longji raised his eyelids and glanced at this Zheng Yushi.

Zheng family, Li Longji sneered in his heart, this time he knew that the third seat was Zheng Hao, and now that Zheng Hao was squeezed out of the first place by Li Bai, the Zheng family naturally couldn't give up.

Zheng Yushi glanced at Li Bai, then bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the minister wants to impeach Li Bai, the student who ranked second in the first class of the imperial examination, he cheated in the exam and bought the officials to put his ranking in the second place in the first class, violating the imperial examination system, reading the book of sages in vain, please Your Majesty severely punish this person!" ”

After hearing Zheng Yushi's words, the officials of the household department immediately frowned, this is questioning their ability, although there are also children of the family in the household department, but Li Bai's righteous army is well deserved, although his writing is true and average, but the content coincides with the Ministry of Industry, and his poetry is excellent, and the strategy used for Tubo is also the same as Li Longji, which is both literary and consistent with the holy will, which is called how to give instructions to them for this marking, and the top three test papers Your Majesty has also seen it personally, Even he felt that he had no objection, isn't this surnamed Zheng crazy?

Yin Que didn't speak, but he still had confidence in his writing.

Prime Minister Yao Chong stood up at this time and said, "Master Zheng, I don't know if you have read the test papers of the first three students?" ”

"I haven't seen it." Zheng Yushi shook his head.

"Then how do you judge that he Li Bai is not relying on real talent to learn?" Yao Chong said again.

This surnamed Zheng naturally hasn't read the test papers, the three of them have agreed on the ranking, but it was destroyed by Li Bai, this Li Bai has always been unknown, and how can a poor student compare to the children of the family, if this Li Bai is not based on relationships, who will believe it? Moreover, this Zheng Yushi also took the marking officer and Yao Chong in by the way.

"Hehe, how can a mere poor child be ranked first? What is it if it's not cheating? Zheng Yushi looked sarcastic.

The ministers present all frowned, how could this surnamed Zheng talk like this, many of the civil officials were students from poor families, and even Prime Minister Yao Chong was from a poor family.

Li Longji on the dragon chair also frowned, his eyes instantly became fierce, and they all said that there are many conceited people in the big group of the family, and when they saw it today, they dared to belittle the cold door in this Taiji Palace, isn't this just a disguised slap in the face of Li Longji?

"Alright, shut up." Li Longji raised his hand and said, his voice was fierce and oppressive, "Come on, show the test papers of the first three students to Master Zheng." ”

Gao Lishi personally came to Zheng Yushi with three test papers and handed them to him, and then returned to the emperor without saying a word after taking a look at him.

Zheng Yushi first picked up Cui Zheng's test paper and looked at it, nodding frequently, Cui Zheng's test paper was very well written, the rhetoric was gorgeous and rich, and the grasp of the current situation in Tibet was just right, and even the poems were first-class.

Then Zheng Yushi looked at Wang Yao's test paper again, and it was okay, but it was much worse than Cui Zheng's test paper.

After taking out Li Bai's test paper, he was attracted by the font on the test paper at first sight, although the surname Zheng was intentionally aimed at Yin Que, but the literary talent was still there.

Zheng Yushi, who was full of sword intent and chivalry, looked at Zheng Yushi's eyes straight, but when he turned his head, he was disdainful for a while, because this piece of Wen Ce was really incomprehensible, and the format was wrong and the words were used casually, even if anyone who had read the book a little bit knew how Wen Ce should write, this was simply a fart and insulting.

"Insulting Sven! What a humiliation! Zheng Yushi blew his beard and glared, "Your Majesty, this Li Bai's writing is really bullshit, how can such a student become the first and second, isn't this evidence?" ”

"Master Zheng, you are taking a good look at whether this article is what you said." Yao Chong said in a deep voice.

"What else to see? The old man is afraid that he will lose his eyes when he sees such an article, and the format is wrong, and the words are casual, and what he says is nothing irrelevant. Zheng Yushi said angrily.

"Zheng Yushi, this article has a thorough analysis of water control, and the direction group strategy is very correct, why is it not bullshit?" Yao Chong asked.

"Humph! I don't know the format of Wen Ce, and Wen Ce's words are not even a single one, what is such an article that is not garbage? Zheng Yushi said, his voice full of disdain for Yin Que. ……
