It's day and night.

Qiandu, Tianqianyuan, Prime Minister's Mansion.

A middle-aged man in a green shirt knocked on the door.

In a few moments, a family member came out, and when he saw the appearance of the visitor, he immediately opened the door and let him in.

The man walked through the courtyard and came to the main hall, only to find that Wei Qing had been waiting here for a long time.

When it was, the middle-aged man in the Confucian robe immediately gave up his hands and performed the gift of a teacher.

"Disciple Hu Yan, I have seen my teacher."

"No need to be polite, Your Majesty's decree, you must have received it."

"After the morning meeting, the holy decree arrived at the students' mansion at noon."

"Alas, this time, it was Yang Huai and Zhang Lang who joined hands to embarrass the old man."

"It's a pity, but it's bitter for you."

"Since Your Majesty set the capital in the north, the center of my great cadre literary circle has gradually moved north."

"In the south, except for Jiangnan County, there are almost no counties that can be on the table."

"In contrast, the literary scene in the north is becoming more and more prosperous."

"Everyone who is famous for their poetry is here, and the official eunuchs who are important for righteousness and policy are here, and even the old bachelors who are good at Bagu are more fond of the north."

"With so many literati and celebrities teaching each other, how can the children be so bad."

"On the other hand, in the south, apart from those classmates in your past, who else can break out of a little fame?"

"In such a context, how can southern candidates compete against northern candidates?"

"Besides, last year's exam, the main exams were the children of the Yang family."

"Even with the help of the Yang family of the fourth world and the third prince, it didn't end well."

"I vaguely remember that in the spring of that year, the top three were all northerners, and even nearly 70% of the people named on the gold list were northerners."

"As soon as such a list is posted, southern students will inevitably make trouble."

"Your Majesty was even more furious, and sent the Yang family's disciple who was the main examiner to prison, and beheaded him after the autumn."

"This kind of situation is a dead end. So at this morning's court meeting, almost everyone shirked the position of the main exam. ”

"It's just that Yang Huai is uneasy and kind, and Zhang Lang even saw the wind and steered the rudder, and forcibly lifted you up."

"It's for the teacher, and I'm ashamed of you."

Whether it is Hu Yan or Mr. Wuliu, including Qin Xiuwen, they are all the children of Wei Qing's disciples.

It's just that compared with the sharp-edged Qin Xiuwen, Wuliu, who is indifferent by nature but arrogant in temperament, loves Hu Yan who knows how to hide his edge.

Facts have also proved that Hu Yan is indeed his most outstanding disciple.

In the past ten years, he has almost become a representative figure in the literary circle of Qiandu.

The position of the country's priest and wine does not seem to be high, but in fact, it has a great influence on the literary circle of Qiandu.

After all, when he holds this official position, he teaches the princes and grandchildren, or after the dignitaries.

It can be said that for this position, the Yang family of the fourth and third princes does not know how long they have been coveted.

It's a pity that Hu Yan has been sitting dead.

It was not allowed to succeed.

Wei Qing also thought very clearly, when Hu Yan stayed in the position of the country's priest wine for a while, and after having enough qualifications, he would be able to move up.

At that time, they will inevitably be able to become their right-hand men, and at the court meeting, they will have a foil for each other.

It's a pity that the Yang family didn't think about it, and the Yang family actually made trouble halfway.

And as soon as you make a move, it's a dead end that you can't solve!

"But you don't need to worry, even if Your Majesty is angry at that time, the teacher will have a way to excuse you."

"It won't let you go to prison, but your career must be affected a little."

"If you don't make great achievements in the future, you will only rely on qualifications and recommendations, and I am afraid it will be difficult to be promoted."

When Hu Yan heard this, he also smiled bitterly and said: "The disciple thought that he was clumsy enough, but he didn't admit it, but he was still worried about the Yang family. ”

"Humph! The Yang family is doing this, you really can't see it when Your Majesty? ”

"It's just that Your Majesty is bent on the Northern Expedition, and the tail of the king of Zhenbei is too big to deal with. Therefore, he had no intention of rectifying the court, but even so, he also supported Zhang Lang and the old man to fight against them. ”

"Don't worry, Your Majesty is the king of my great work."

"As long as the Northern Expedition is over, Your Majesty will have a free hand, and such a tumor as the Yang family can be swept away in an instant."

"However, before that, I'm afraid I'm going to suffer you."

When Hu Yan heard this, his brows furrowed, and then he seemed to remember something, and couldn't help but say: "Students have heard recently that there are also many talented people in the south, maybe the results of this spring festival will be very different." ”

"Are you talking about the Huainan poet, or the Gu family prodigy?"

"The teacher has a discerning eye, and he knows these two people."

"Alas, that Gu family prodigy, said that I am the youngest person in the big cadre, and I am expected to win three yuan."

"If it had been in previous years, it would have been true. But this year's situation is different, His Majesty's intention to go on a northern expedition and rely on the talents selected by the examination, so naturally there should be some focus, and the standards will also be changed. ”

"At his age, it's okay to do eight shares. As for the two subjects of strategy and poetry, I am afraid it is difficult to get good grades. ”

"What about Huainan Shijun? Some time ago, Xiuwen corresponded with me, and his words were full of praise for him. ”

"I claim that if he enters the office, I am afraid that the position of the country's superintendent of wine will not be a few months, and I will have to abdicate and make way for Xian."

When Wei Qing heard this, the corners of his mouth smiled, nodded, and said, "That Huainan poet is indeed talented. ”

"It is said that he is not as old as a weak crown, but he can write poems such as "Zhenyumen" and "From the Army".

"His reputation, even in Qiandu, is really not small."

"If he can participate in the examination, not to mention the top three, but ranking in the top ten, it is almost a certainty."

"The teacher is so optimistic about this word, it seems that Xiuwen's vision is still unique, but he has never seen the wrong person."

However, when Wei Qing heard this, he smiled bitterly.

"His literary talent is indeed outstanding, and at a young age, he has such a talent, which is enough to make the old man embarrassed."

"It's a pity that this person doesn't want to join the ranks."

"Don't want to get in?"

"Yes, you don't know, some time ago, Taicang, who was in charge of selecting the imperial merchants, ordered Wu Yunxuan to return to the capital to return to his life, and he mentioned this Huainan poet."

"As a teacher, I specially ordered someone to go to Huainan and investigate."

"It turned out that this ... has no merit in his body, he is still a white ding! ”

Rumble!

As soon as these words came out, it was like thunder on the ground, and it slammed into Hu Yan's head.

After a long time, he came to his senses and said: "Without fame, unless Your Majesty gives him an official position in the future, he will not be able to get a career in office." ”

"He has so much talent, how can he be so wasted?"

"Confused, really confused!"

At this moment, Hu Yan's first consideration was not his own safety. It's Gu Beichuan's jade, which has less chance of becoming a talent.

"Alas, everyone has their own ambitions, and other people's ambitions are not here, so what can we do?"

"Looking at it this way, there is really no one in the south who can compete with the candidates in the north, it seems that this catastrophe, I am decided."

"Don't be discouraged, as long as there is a person from the south in the top ten, I will intercede for you from Your Majesty."

"When the time comes, even Yang Huai and Zhang Lang won't have anything to say."
