Li Tang sat on the canopy, accepting the pilgrimage of the people, and everyone on the street praised the benevolence and righteousness of the saint today, but when he raised his head, his eyes were on the body of the Nine Emperor Princes.

After a long time, Li Tang of course saw the current situation clearly, and at this moment, his disgust with Li Chen in his heart was at its peak, but at this time, more than half of the journey was over, and the people of the other half of the city were eager to wear it, so they had to go down.

The thirteenth prince was surrounded by the people of the palace in the crowd, looking at Li Chen's scenery from a distance, at this moment his heart was pecked by a snake and scorpion, he was a year older, and many words were just gritted his teeth and chewed repeatedly in his heart, "I will definitely kill him with my own hands!" ”

The second prince sat in the attic, only glimpsing this scene through the shadow of the mahogany of the painting boat, he was the first person in the whole of Kyoto to know that Li Chen was back, and now looking at Li Chen's scenery, he had already guessed that there would be such a scene, but he remembered Li Chen's appearance yesterday, and he didn't have much revenge at the moment, but of course he refused to admit that he was afraid of the other party, the teacup in his hand trembled slightly, and there was a rapid knock on the table.

"His Highness the Nine!"

In the crowd, there was a bold girl who asked the maid to throw the hydrangea to Li Chen, seeing that the soldiers on both sides did not react, so it was like setting a precedent, more and more rich ladies threw the hydrangea, and it was like a rain of hydrangeas in the air.

When passing by the thin spring shirt, the rich ladies upstairs and hydrangeas all smashed directly at Li Chen, especially the Oiran girl who had sung a song to Li Chen all night, and at this time they threw them down one by one as if they were angry.

The rich lady on the ground sneered at the rich lady upstairs: These little prodigal hooves, don't look at what kind of fairy characters His Royal Highness Nine is, how can they go to such a place as a thin spring shirt.

This procession lasted until noon, and finally returned to the imperial city when Li Tang was becoming more and more bored and even irritable.

After getting off the horse and entering the hall, Li Tang asked Li Chen what he thought, of course Li Chen could see the thoughts of this father, bowed down and said with a smile: "This is the people's love for Your Majesty and the Holy Dynasty, what does it have to do with me?" ”

Li Tang was slightly satisfied, turned around and ordered the minions to prepare a feast.

The feast is a gathering of nobles, they step on a higher step and position than ordinary people, do not talk about the livelihood of the Holy Dynasty, only talk about the joy of the moment, and occasionally guess which prince is most likely to succeed the Holy Dynasty today, some people dance with the sound of the piano because they drink too much wine, looking a little funny, but this is the elegance of the nobles.

After the banquet, Li Chen stayed in the mansion for ten full days, which was a punishment for him for killing the Shaoqing Tong Kaiwen of Dali Temple, but the mansion was not as deserted as before, and there were often officials who came to the door with heavy gifts, although they knew that the possibility of the Nine Emperors sitting in that seat now was still not as good as that of the second prince or the thirteenth prince, but with the merits and cultivation of the Meteoric Ink Mountain, who can say for sure?

Ten days later, Li Chen was once again announced into the palace.

Li Tang's expression was much gentler than before, he looked at Li Chen standing in front of him, and said with a smile, "Sit down, I have something to say to you today, you don't have to be like this." ”

Li Chen excused himself and said that in front of His Majesty, there should be respect and humility for the elders and young, so Li Tang did not continue to remind him, and instead asked about Li Chen's experience on Meteoric Ink Mountain.

Li Chenyu asked and answered, knowing in his heart that Li Tang must have something to arrange for calling him over today, and this matter must be risky, otherwise it would not be the way he is now.

After greeting for a long time, Li Tang asked: "There are still three months left before the imperial examination, do you have any opinion on this matter?" ”

Li Chen knew that the main topic was coming, and said: "This is a grand event to select talents for my holy dynasty. ”

Li Tang sighed and said: "But you know, now the people always say that the people on the list in the middle of the year are the children of some rich and noble families or temple officials, and there are quite a few complaints, I have been unable to sleep at night because of this matter recently, and you, as a prince, should also know the truth of treating the people of the Holy Dynasty equally." ”

Li Chen vaguely understood what Li Tang meant, and said to him: "I am willing to share my father's worries." ”

Li Tang smiled, "I have been thinking recently, the reason why there are many rich and noble children in the imperial examination is nothing more than that they have a lot of contact with classics on weekdays, but ordinary people do not have such opportunities, since this is the case, why not think of a way to let more people have the opportunity to contact all kinds of classics." ”

Li Chen thought about it a little, and knew what the emperor thought, now the imperial examination of the Holy Dynasty, every year, many are children of the family, what Li Tang just said about the rich and noble families or temple officials, in fact, in the final analysis, it is only the children of the family.

The emperor has the heart to get rid of the current situation, but he is worried that this matter will make the family dissatisfied, so he pushed him out, even if he really dislikes the family in the future, he will have him, the Nine Emperor Princes, to make a scapegoat.

Li Chen did not refuse, bowed down and said, "As the prince of the Holy Dynasty, I should do something for the people of my Holy Dynasty. ”

Late at night, the chirping of birds and insects in spring is the fresh color of the season, and it sounds like the sound of dewdrop-covered leaves taking a bath due to humidity.

Taishi Temple.

The national teacher looked at the book of life in his hand, "How is this possible?" ”

The content of the book of life made him even doubt the book of life for the first time, the book of life of the Taishi Academy is related to the number of qi of the Holy Dynasty, and it is the first time in so long time that such an accurate approval has been made on a person's identity.

"The last time the letter of order said that the holy son of the demon clan was in the temple, and then he checked the entire temple, but he didn't see any clues, now think about it, at that time, the Nine Emperor Princes had already gone to Meteoric Ink Mountain, and he was indeed a person in the temple, and he had entered the imperial city, but, if he was really the blood of the demon clan, how could he enter the imperial city? Besides, the approval of Lone Star ten years ago is also the atmosphere that can only be had by the bloodline of the royal family! ”

All kinds of doubts are abnormalities that are difficult to combine, even if they are placed on a random person, it is enough to alarm the world, but now they are gathered by one person, the national teacher has always been good at various plans, and now he can't help but lose his mind, "What is going on?" ”
