"Why is Yi'er here?" Emperor Nanchen was obviously like everyone else, without warning.

The corners of Jing Lingyi's mouth rose slightly, and he laughed for a while, "Look at what my father said, the son-in-law is already eighteen-year-old, and he has long passed the age of listening to the government in the previous dynasty, so how can the son-in-law not come?" ”

Emperor Nanchen frowned slightly, his face a little ugly.

Although what Jing Lingyi said was reasonable, but when he came out like this quietly, Emperor Nanchen was naturally a little unhappy in his heart, but he couldn't find a little fault in his words.

"Since you're here, let's stand aside and listen to the government." Emperor Nanchen is not salty or indifferent.

"Yes, Father." Jing Lingyi lowered his head and replied, the corners of his mouth not easily raised.

He knew in his heart that even if Emperor Nanchen wanted to say anything to him, it would be impossible for him to acquiesce to him standing aside and listening to the government in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, which he had already expected.

In this game, he won the bet.

Emperor Nanchen took a deep breath, settled his mind, looked away from him, looked at the civil and military officials in the hall, and asked, "What do you want to play?" ”

"Your Majesty, the triennial national examination is coming, and as far as the minister knows, candidates from all over the country are ready to go to the capital to take the exam."

Emperor Nanchen nodded, "In the middle of next month, the registration for the national examination for the triennial selection of talents will be organized in Zhongshu Lane in the North Courtyard, and this matter will be handed over to the household department and the prime minister. ”

"The ministers obey." The two of them came out of the queue and said respectfully.

Emperor Nanchen suddenly remembered something, and said thoughtfully: "My Princess Wei has reached the age of marriage, and I will issue an order today to select one from the top three of this batch of candidates to be Princess Wei's concubine." ”

The crowd hurriedly seconded.

In this national examination, not only the selection of useful talents of the imperial court, but also the selection of His Majesty's fast son-in-law, which is naturally extremely valued.

Jing Xuanyu and Jing Xunning were hesitating whether to be out of the ranks, but when they saw Jing Lingyi coming out, they bowed their heads and said respectfully: "Father, the son has something to do." ”

Emperor Nanchen looked at him, and seeing that he was rare to be so well-behaved, he frowned and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Erchen applied to join the two adults and did his part in selecting talents for the imperial court." Jing Lingyi said seriously.

Emperor Nanchen was stunned for a moment, and his face hesitated, "Yi'er is afraid that she is not familiar with this convenient work......"

"Father, the son is young, everything can be learned from scratch, ask for the father's permission." Jing Lingyi said.

Jing Xuanning and Jing Xuanyu's faces were a little ugly, and they snorted coldly in their hearts.

Emperor Nanchen frowned, "Rong Zhen will think about this matter......"

"Father, the sons think that this national examination is not only about selecting talents, but also about selecting horses, and as a son, you can sit in charge of this matter......" Speaking of this, Jing Lingyi turned to look at Prime Minister Liu Cheng, and said indifferently: "The selection of horses is related to Princess Wei's marriage, Prime Minister Liu Cheng thinks, can this king afford this responsibility?" ”

Prime Minister Liu Cheng was stunned for a moment, if it was only an invigilator, it would be good to say, but it was not a trivial matter to choose a concubine, plus Princess Wei had a bad temperament, after thinking about it, he really didn't want to take this responsibility, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, what His Royal Highness Seven said is extremely true, and the minister thinks that His Royal Highness, as the prince of the dynasty, can naturally afford this heavy responsibility." ”

Without waiting for Emperor Nanchen to nod, Jing Lingyi hurriedly said: "Father, since the Prime Minister has no objections, the sons and daughters volunteered to take on this matter, and the father can rest assured that the sons will not disappoint the father." ”

Emperor Nanchen frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Zhou De, let's make a will." ”

"Thank you for your father's grace." Jing Lingyi hurriedly said.

Jing Xuanyu and Jing Xuning's faces are not very good, you must know that although there is no oil and water in the selection of talents in the imperial court, it is not impossible to win over a few candidates in private and use them for their own use in the future.
