Li Jingren, the second son of the king of Jiangxia, failed to apprentice to the champion Hou two years ago, because Li Daozong, the king of Jiangxia, offended Xiao Rui, and was secretly ambushed by Xiao Rui, robbed the second son Li Jingren, and then sent it to Xue Li in Liangzhou, the north, and secretly handed it over to Xue Li to teach. And Li Daozong once thought that his son was the hand of a person with five surnames and seven hopes, and he still doesn't know whether he is alive or dead.

After two years of training, Li Jingren practiced literature and martial arts every day, although it was far inferior to Xue Li, but Xue Li taught him everything, and Li Jingren also learned Xue Li's two things, far beyond ordinary peers.

Facing Xue Li's question, Li Jingren said modestly: "Second brother, what are you talking about?" In the past two years, my younger brother has been taken care of by my second brother and two sisters-in-law, and I have been treated like a brother. Brother and sister-in-law's kindness has not been reciprocated, how can they leave just like that? ”

"Since you call me second brother, you are your own person, how can you talk about repaying me?" Xue Li said with a smile.

Li Jingren said seriously: "Next year's imperial examination will be a dragon and tiger battle that will go down in history, this is not only the battle between the Hou Ye and the five surnames and seven hopes, but also the day when the government schools in various places come out." My Liangzhou is bitterly cold, and compared with those rich places in the Central Plains, I have always been unknown. ”

"But after the governance of the second brother over the years, it is like a paradise in the north, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the north is in the south of the Yangtze River. However, the imperial court does not know the real body and has always paid no attention to us. ”

"So this imperial examination will be a rare opportunity, if our Liangzhou scholars can shine in the imperial examination, it will greatly increase their prestige, and who will dare to despise us in the future?"

"The younger brother Meng and the second brother taught, although he didn't dare to say that the second brother could tell the truth, but he also asked himself Wenmo and knew a little bit about it. So I want to represent the second brother and be a talent in the world for a while? ”

Xue Rengui patted Li Jingren's shoulder with emotion: "You kid is really a good royal family, what kind of imperial examination do you participate in?" said that he was helping Liangzhou become famous, but didn't he want to help me Xue Li become famous? It's enough for you to have this heart. ”

"If it is peaceful today, it is enough to live in Liangzhou and guard a place, and there will be no disasters and no difficulties, and it is not a good thing that the reputation is too big to attract people's hatred."

"You see that my brother champion Hou Wei is famous, but he is actually running around planning all day long, and he is so busy that he is haggard. Not only that, but the tree is so popular that many people are thinking about killing him all day long. That's why he often told me not to be obsessed with fame and fortune, because the greater the power, the greater the responsibility, and the greater the danger. ”

Li Jingren smiled and shook his head: "The realm of Champion Hou, I can't understand the junior brother." However, when I come back with a champion this time, and then accompany my parents in Chang'an, I will ask the court for orders and be transferred to Liangzhou as an official, and I will really be a helper for your second brother when the time comes. You and I strive to build Liangzhou more prosperous than Chang'an. ”

Xue Li laughed and said: "People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, if you really come back with a champion, don't say that you will be transferred to Liangzhou at that time, I'm afraid that even I will have to be transferred back to Chang'an to be the waiter of the Ministry of Rites." ”

Burst......

Li Jingren smiled: "What's that?" With the second brother's ability, you should be the secretary of the Ministry of Rites. If the Ministry of Rites is under your control, it is a blessing for students in the world. ”

Burst...... You can figure it out, I'm a general, let a military general be the secretary of the Ministry of Rites? Isn't it to shame the civil servants?

"Okay, if you want to sign up, you can arrange it yourself, with my warrant, no one in Liangzhou will stop you."

"Hehe, I still use a pseudonym, and I will be on the Taiji Hall to surprise my father."

"Haha, the imperial examination is not easy, it is good to use a pseudonym, so as to save yourself from losing the list and embarrassing King Jiangxia."

Burst...... Second brother, without you like you, the title of the junior brother's gold list is a big deal, so you can't say something auspicious?

"Hahahaha, okay, then I wish the virtuous brother a victory, the title of the gold list, and win the champion! You go and sign up, I'll ask your sister-in-law to prepare a family dinner, and make an exception for you to drink today. ”

……

Chang'an City, Imperial Palace.

Li Er was listening to the inner chamberlain Lao Gao's report on Princess Changle.

"Your Majesty, how should the two people of the Ying Guo Mansion deal with it? Yu Shitai has already inquired and understood, both of them are involved in murder cases, one was handled when Ying Guogong was alive, and the other was a few months ago, which was suppressed by them at their expense. Now the whole city is in trouble, and their legs were also broken by the princess...... The two of them should have killed their lives, but Yu Shitai did not dare to move, so he sent someone to ask His Majesty. ”

Li Er sighed and said: "Ying Guogong Warrior has a good reputation, but I didn't expect the two sons to be so unsuccessful. That's it, for the sake of the samurai who contributed to the Tang Dynasty for half his life, leave an incense for his martial artist. ”

"Since it's known all over the city, you can't just let it go. After a public trial, they were sentenced to death, and two death row prisoners were found to meet their heads, and in private, the two brothers were exiled to Liaodong, incognito and never allowed to return. ”

The inner servant Lao Gao said worriedly: "Your Majesty, if this is the case, then the martial arts family will be extinct, will outsiders say that the court is too ruthless and will not let go of the heroes?" ”

Li Er shook his head and said: "If it doesn't spread, it's easy to do, but the whole city knows it, and the court must first give an explanation to the people." If the lawsuit is opened, then the people should say that the court is unfair in the future. ”

"By the way, didn't you say the day before yesterday that Samurai had a daughter who passed the three prodigy exams? If this girl can really excel in the imperial examination next year, she will be generously given to this girl at that time, and it will be regarded as an explanation to the hero. ”

Lao Gao complimented: "Your Majesty Shengming! According to the old slave, the girl of the martial arts family is amazing, I heard that she was sent by the champion Hou yesterday and received Xiaojiazhuang, and she couldn't say that the Hou Ye wanted to cultivate it personally. ”

Oh? Is there such a thing? In this way, this girl really has something special, Xiao Rui's kid is very picky.

"By the way, isn't he a new student? Did you also pass the three prodigy exams? ”

Lao Gao smiled and said, "Not bad." Hou Ye is known for his knowledge of people. This student named Di Renjie is not simple, he is only eight years old, but he is a great prodigy. It is said that in the three examinations of the prodigy, he initiated a bet with Her Royal Highness the princess and the martial arts girl at the same time, and finally the youngest Di Renjie won. Even the princess praised it. You know, Her Royal Highness the princess is easy not to boast. ”

Oh? Is there such a thing?

"So...... Changle admires this doll named Di Renjie very much? Li Er asked curiously.

Lao Gao nodded: "Yes, according to the subordinates, they also affectionately recognize each other as their younger brothers." ”

Oh? Hehe, interesting! In this way, it's not like no one can't get into her eyes.

"Check out what is the background of this person named Di Renjie?"

"I've checked, it's the son of Governor Kui Stitchon, and there is a fifteen-year-old sister on it."

"Dicterson? Oh...... It's him! Li Er recalled for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "Send someone to check Di Zhixun's official situation in the past few years, if his political performance is okay, the next one will be transferred to Chang'an." ”

Lao Gao was puzzled: "Your Majesty, the imperial examination has not started yet, is it a little early?" ”

Li Er smiled and said, "You don't understand, I'm thinking about Changle." ”

Yes? Do you want to ......

However, Princess Changle seems to be much older and older than Di Renjie.

Li Er glared, I use you to remind?

"Hmph, age is not a problem, didn't Changle worship a Taoist master? has been clamoring to go into the mountains to practice, then go to the mountains to learn art for a few years, even if it is to marry in another ten years, it is better than staring at Xiao Rui, a bastard! ”
