The 163rd Temple Examination
Ye Ning had no way to ask for help, so she simply didn't care, she stared at Feng Jiao viciously, gritted her teeth and said, "Mother, help me." This was her last chance, and even if the odds were slim, she would try!
Feng Jiao touched her stomach for a moment, she raised her eyes, her face was full of helplessness, and then she looked at Ye Meng, squirmed her lips, and said softly: "Meng Lang, even if it is to pray for our children, Ning'er is not sensible, you can spare her once, and then where is Zhuangzi suitable for a little girl's house?" She looked pleading, stared at Ye Meng with affection, and taught him to be in a dilemma. On the one hand, he loved his daughter like a treasure, and on the other hand, he pitied his delicate wife, and for a while, Ye Meng showed embarrassment.
Ye Hao smiled, very breezy smile, she bowed slightly, "What did Aunt Feng say?" What's wrong in Zhuangzi, is there still someone who bullies the eighth sister, but the eighth sister has no mercy on me. She looked at Ye Meng fixedly, and put on a posture of not backing down.
Ye Meng sighed faintly, waved his hand, and the subordinates got the instructions, regardless of Ye Ning crying and dragging her out, Feng Jiao saw that Ye Meng's expression was still not very happy, and she was worried in her heart, she asked softly: "Meng Lang, ...... you"
Ye Meng shook his head, and only said to her lightly: "Don't believe her words in the future, I know what Zhenzhen is like." After that, he strode forward, walked to Ye Hao's side and stood still, and said with a little guilt and self-blame: "Zhenzhen, today's incident is indeed Ning Yatou's nonsense, don't take it to heart, my father has always believed in you," he patted his chest and held his head high, "My Ye Meng's daughter, can you still have a fake?" The words that were full of anger came out of his mouth, and he only felt very bold.
Ye Hao nodded, she naturally trusted Ye Meng, but it was impossible to achieve today's matter with Ye Ning's strength alone, and Feng Jiao was also one of the masterminds, but now that she was pregnant with her belly, the old lady couldn't do anything to her even if she knew it, but there should still be a warning, so as not to make a moth all day long.
After they left, Ye Hao stayed alone in the house, unconsciously rubbing the scars on her arms, stunned. Now Bian Jing's pattern is too delicate, the party headed by the prince is becoming more and more clear, even Concubine Yun can't help but be ready to move, Jun Chengxuan has always been quiet, in a state of observation, Jun Ninglan wants to win in this gap is too difficult.
The situation in the imperial court is ever-changing, and no one can figure out the mind of Emperor Shengwu. At this time in the previous life, Emperor Shengwu had already shown a weakened appearance, and at that time she also married Jun Chengxuan as his wife, and Jun Chengxuan and Concubine Xian also slowly revealed their wolf ambitions, which was the origin of all tragedies. Thinking of this, Ye Hao slowly closed her eyes, but the sadness in her heart was undiminished.
Ye Hua and Sun Jinnian are both qualified for the palace examination, so early in the morning of the palace examination, after the two of them packed up, they took a carriage and drove to the palace under the advice of the old lady.
The palace test is arranged in the open space outside the Chaoyang Palace, and the tables are neatly placed, and the hall door facing is the Chaoyang Palace, the palace of the early dynasty of Emperor Shengwu, and it is also the place that these students dream of.
Emperor Shengwu only came out of the topic, two big characters "monarchs and ministers", the way of monarchs and ministers in the past dynasties is quite exquisite, what is a king? What is a minister? After a little thought, the students followed what they thought, waved their pens, and answered the questions carefully.
Until the eunuch struck the big gong hanging on the side, the time for the palace test was up, and the title paper was put away and presented to Emperor Shengwu, who looked at each answer sheet carefully with a pair of eagle eyes, his face was serious, and he did not argue about joy or anger.
When he turned to Ye Hua's answer sheet, his fingers paused slightly, Ye Hua was chic and uninhibited, it can be seen that the words are like his person, they are also uninhibited, revealing the atmosphere, Emperor Shengwu unconsciously tapping the answer sheet, but Zhang Yonghai on the side understands Emperor Shengwu's thoughts, so he said: "Can the emperor take a break, I am tired of my eyes."
The eunuch on the side hurriedly handed over a cup of steaming tea, Zhang Yonghai respectfully brought it over, gently put it on the table, and walked back to stand still, Emperor Shengwu's eyes were gloomy, and he only said lightly: "Ye Meng's son, the literary talent is good, and he wants to go to battle and kill the enemy?"
Emperor Shengwu put Ye Hua's answer sheet aside, continued to read the rest of the answer sheets, and after reading for a long time, he circled an answer sheet with a red pen, rubbed his forehead tiredly, and said with a heavy gaze: "Just him, this person has sharp words, but he is a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and there is a lack of such a straight person who is not afraid of death in the court, and it is time to destroy the majesty of these old bones!"
For a long time, those ministers in the court who relied on the old and sold the old, thought that they had served several generations of emperors, and even thought that they had worked hard and made high achievements, slowly bred arrogance, often disagreed with him, and even directly choked to death with him, their thoughts were outdated and pedantic, and they regarded themselves very highly.
If at this time, he slowly reuses these new forces and cultivates them into the next generation of capable ministers, where do these old things have a high opinion of their capital? Moreover, what Emperor Shengwu wanted was a wholehearted, non-dismissive courtier, loyal to him, with new ideas and ideas, and these young students with ideas were undoubtedly his best training objects.
As long as they are given some sweetness, they will naturally work hard for themselves, and they all say that those who do not know are fearless, they have the energy to do anything, and those old guys are lawless, and the days of the one-handed court should be over.
He thought so, Zhang Yonghai went out of the palace gate, read out the results of the palace examination, and mentioned who the champion was, unexpectedly it was not Ye Hua or Sun Jinnian, but a student from a poor family, he was dressed plainly, and when he heard the champion flower fall on his head, he was even more surprised and unbelievable, and after reacting, he was surrounded by a group of students and said congratulations, and he couldn't help but feel a little fluttery for a while.
Then, Zhang Yonghai reported that Ye Hua was Ye Hua, and there was no doubt that Ye Hua's origin from Ye Mansion was enviable, so some students thought that they would also take the opportunity to befriend Ye Hua and him, which would also help their career in the future. However, Ye Hua's face was expressionless, and the whole person emitted a message: Don't get close to the living, and the deterrent power is not much worse than Ye Meng.
Although Sun Jinnian is not a list or a tanhua, his ranking is also high, not to mention that he is also from Ye Mansion, compared with Ye Hua, he seems to be very elegant and approachable, and he responds with a light smile to those students who compliment him, and does not show half an impatient look.
Emperor Shengwu only recruited the champion into the hall, and after a long time, the door of the palace opened, and the newly promoted champion Lang was full of spring, and he was full of confidence in his gestures, and he couldn't wait to take office immediately, which was simply full of energy.
Immediately Ye Hua and another Tanhua entered the Chaoyang Palace, Emperor Shengwu was sitting on the dragon chair, his eyes swept over Ye Hua's face with deep meaning, and his smile was unfathomable.
Emperor Shengwu asked a few questions as usual, Ye Hua answered decently, not badly, Emperor Shengwu lightly ordered a few words, roughly to be loyal to the monarch and patriotism, and to be loyal to the country and loyal to Yunyun. When they went out of the palace, the Tanhua was simply excited beyond words, seeing that he was honest and honest, he looked excited, and said with emotion: "Your Majesty is really approachable, such a bright monarch, I am really honored to serve the country!"
Ye Hua raised his eyebrows, flicked his robe, noncommittal, kings are not like this, winning the hearts of courtiers is a compulsory course for them, it can be said that Emperor Shengwu is a very successful politician, he squinted his eyes, and asked casually: "I don't know what this benevolent brother is?"
Tanhua rubbed his hands, his eyes lit up, his voice was a little irrepressibly excited, and he said with his eyebrows fluttering: "I think about it, as long as the emperor gives an order, I will not hesitate to go to the soup and the fire." After a pause, he scratched his head embarrassedly and asked, "What about you?" What do you want to do? ”
Ye Hua looked at the sky, cloudless, clear, he said softly but firmly: "I want to join the army."
"Oh~ That's a good ambition." Tanhua smiled.
Emperor Shengwu was in a good mood today, and simply set up a banquet in the imperial garden, everyone was flattered, after three rounds of drinking, everyone was a little drunk, and simply talked to each other, and the monarchs and ministers were happy together, but it was also like a harmonious picture.
Ye Hua was a little overwhelmed, his steps were a little fluttering, he staggered to a rockery, wanted to take advantage of the cool breeze to wake up, he closed his eyes, obviously a little tired, however, someone patted him on the shoulder, he snorted irritably, moved his body, but the man continued to pat his shoulder, Ye Hua was really not bothered, opened his eyes in annoyance, and said angrily: "What are you doing?" Start ......"
The man raised his eyebrows, crossed his chest, stared at him with a smile, and opened his lips and said, "Young Master Ye." The lazy tone reveals the owner's lazy nature.
Ye Hua's eyes widened, rubbed his eyes, and looked fixedly, isn't this Jun Ninglan? Dressed in red, who else can wear this red dress with an incomparably charming feeling? He frowned and said, "Sixth Highness?"
Jun Ninglan touched his chin and groaned, "Perhaps, it's better for me to call you big brother?" It's all a statement in tone, because his expression is just um, it's just like that, and he doesn't care about other people's feelings at all.
Ye Hua: "......" He was powerless to support his forehead, no matter what, he couldn't figure it out, why did Ye Hao take a fancy to him and think that Jun Ninglan was reliable? In his opinion, the only impression that this sixth prince gave him was that he was romantic and cynical, and the rest was nothing.
Perhaps his disdain was too obvious, Jun Ninglan raised his lips and smiled, "What does the eldest brother think?" Why don't you tell me about it? He also endured it, after all, his previous image of a gentleman really couldn't give Ye Hua a good impression, and at the same time, because he was Ye Hao's eldest brother, he was willing to endure and be patient.
