====

The time gradually came to the middle of October, more and more scholars who were ready to participate in the imperial examination and martial arts entered Beijing one after another, and 100,000 scholars from all over the Tang Dynasty gathered in Luoyang, the capital of the gods.

Outside the gate of the Gaofu of Jishanfang, Li Zhen was instructing his brother-in-law Cao Wen to take some precautions, Cao Wen nodded silently, he understood all these things that Li Zhen said, and he didn't need Li Zhen to tell him again.

Immediately the imperial examination gradually came, and the competition for connections behind the imperial examination gradually became fierce, and everyone wanted to trust the relationship, recount the nostalgia, and worship the high-ranking officials as protégés, in order to get the care of the high-ranking officials of the imperial court in the imperial examination, which was also a major victory of the imperial examination in the Tang Dynasty every year.

Li Zhen couldn't stand the pressure exerted on him by his eldest sister Li Quan, and began to run around for his brother-in-law Cao Wen, he originally planned to let Cao Wen worship as Di Renjie's protégé, but Di Renjie was demoted, and in desperation, he had to hit Gao Yanfu's idea.

Gao Yanfu is only one of the four major internal servants of the Inner Servant Province, who only cares about the affairs of the palace, and generally does not ask about the affairs of the imperial court, but Gao Yanfu has deep connections in Luoyang, and he can recommend Cao Wen to a high-ranking official with real power.

It happened that Gao Yanfu wanted to find a Xixi seat for his adopted son Gao Lishi to teach calligraphy, and Cao Wen's calligraphy was excellent and very famous in Shazhou, so Li Zhen recommended Cao Wen to Gao Yanfu.

At this time, the housekeeper of the Gao Mansion walked out quickly, he was already familiar with Li Zhen, and knew that he was a person that the master valued very much, and he was also very polite to Li Zhen, bowed down and smiled: "Master Li, the master is invited!"

Li Zhen pulled Cao Wen, "Let's go!"

Cao Wen straightened his clothes and followed Li Zhen into the Gao Mansion nervously.

In the study, Cao Wen was engrossed in writing a poem, Gao Yanfu nodded secretly on the side, the penmanship was mellow and powerful, looking at words is like knowing people, this Cao Wen really wrote a good calligraphy.

Although Cao Wen is Li Zhen's brother-in-law, he has real talent and real learning, which makes Gao Yanfu appreciate, at this time, Cao Wen put down his pen and said to Gao Yanfu modestly: "The student has finished writing, please take a look at it." ”

Gao Yanfu picked up the banner, read it a few times, and said approvingly: "He is worthy of being a genius in Shazhou, and his calligraphy is really good." ”

He put down the banner, beckoned Gao Lishi forward again, and said to him: "From today on, Mr. Cao is your Xixi, don't meet Mr. yet!"

Gao Lishi knelt down and respectfully kowtowed to Cao Wen three times, "Student Gao Lishi, meet Mr!"

His first student turned out to be a little eunuch, which made Cao Wen feel uncomfortable.

However, thinking of Gao Yanfu's power and connections, this regret is insignificant, and he hurriedly helped Gao Lishi up, "Don't dare! Don't dare! In the future, we will learn from each other and learn together." ”

Gao Yanfu was very satisfied with Cao Wen's character, so he asked Gao Lishi to take him to the school room to practice calligraphy, and the two left, leaving only Gao Yanfu and Li Zhen in the room.

Gao Yanfu asked people to put the wine on the table again, and smiled at Li Zhen: "It's okay today, you can have two drinks with me!"

Li Zhen also smiled: "Meng Fujun values it, but the younger generation is disrespectful." ”

"That's right, feel free!"

Although Gao Yanfu was initially grateful to Li Zhen, Li Zhen's expression in the Buddhist scripture case was very sophisticated, which made Gao Yanfu very appreciative, and invisibly, he was also willing to chat with Li Zhen about his heart.

Li Zhen poured Gao Yanfu a glass of wine, and said with emotion: "Don't hide it from the prince, my brother-in-law is a talented person, and he is my grandfather's most proud protégé, but unfortunately his family is poor, his personality is relatively weak, and he has no future in the county government, my eldest sister has high expectations for him, and hopes that he can be admitted to the imperial examination." ”

"I can see that his calligraphy is really good, and he has a faint demeanor, I will recommend him to high-ranking officials, and the virtuous nephew can rest assured!"

"Thank you for your support!"

The two drank a few glasses of wine, and Gao Yanfu felt a little drunk, so he smiled and said: "The real reason why Di Gong was deposed, I think you should understand it!"

Li Zhen nodded silently, when Junchen came to ask Di Renjie to expose Ren Zhigu, Pei Xingben and others in prison, it was actually Wu Zetian's instructions.

It's just that he didn't expect that the real purpose of Wu Zetian's arrest of Di Renjie in prison was to purge Li Dan's faction, no wonder Di Renjie wanted to burn the letter in the end.

Gao Yanfu took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "The saint originally wanted to use the Di Renjie case to finally bring out the emperor's heir, but he didn't expect this case to kill a hairy boy, and finally messed up the situation, and she finally had to borrow Wei Tuan'er's hand to achieve her goal." ”

Li Zhen was taken aback, "Did the prince say that the female emperor knew about me?"

Gao Yanfu smiled and said: "I don't know if the saint knows about you, but I think that even if she knows, she won't take you to heart, but some people who have a heart remember you." ”

Li Zhen knew what Gao Yanfu was referring to, such as Lai Junchen, Wei Tuan'er, Wu Chengsi and other insiders, so he smiled bitterly and said, "I hope this matter will end here, and there will be no more incidents." ”

Gao Yanfu shook his head, "Lin wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, some things are not as simple as you think, the court struggle is like this, sometimes you think that the matter is over, maybe it has just begun, sometimes you feel that it is still going on, in fact it is over, it is unpredictable, and only people in the bureau know it." ”

Gao Yanfu saw that Li Zhen was a little heavy, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry, with me, Lai Junchen, Wei Tuan'er and others dare not touch you." ”

"Thank you for protecting the younger generation!"

At this time, Li Zhen asked again: "What about Wu Chenghei, won't he have a comeback day?"

Gao Yanfu sneered, "Dare to poison the Buddhist scriptures, let the saint witness death with his own eyes, it is already a blessing of heaven for the saint not to kill him, and he still wants to make a comeback, it is purely a fool's dream." ”

Gao Yanfu poured another glass of wine and said with a smile: "Let's drink, don't talk about these boring things." ”

During this time, Li Quan was in the best mood, she borrowed 2,000 yuan from Zhao Qiuniang, plus the money Li Zhen gave her, she hoarded 5,000 yuan of fine wine before and after.

Although she was worried for more than a month, the price of wine eventually skyrocketed, and the supply of her fine wines exceeded the demand, which made her reap the benefits.

At the same time, her husband was favored by Gao Fujun and promised to recommend him to the high-ranking officials in real power, Li Quan can be described as a double happiness, just after Li Zhen and her husband returned, she took the two of them to the left bank wine shop to celebrate.

Mother-in-law Meng Shi wanted to be a vegetarian and refused to come to the wine store with her, she didn't care, but she was in a better mood and rented a private room on the second floor of the wine shop.

The bartender's eyes were very poisonous, and he saw that Li Quan was the one in charge, so he stood beside her with a smile on his face and ordered, Li Quan had money and was also happy, pointing to the seven or eight signature dishes of the wine shop and said: "Give me one of the same, and if you have any good wine in the store, I mean wine." ”

The bartender was startled, if you have the same portion, it will cost five dollars, this is a rich man!

He hurriedly laughed and said: "There is good wine, the wine that has just been shipped from Gaochang is relatively expensive." ”

Li Quan sneered, "Don't think I'm a wronged boss, think I'm a layman? Gaochang wine is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, give me the word to sign up!"

The bartender saw that she was a knowledgeable person, so she didn't dare to do anything more, so she had to say honestly: "If you want to be cheap, there are Shuanglinju's three-year brewing, the moderate price is Zhangshengfang's Shilixiang, and the more expensive ones are Jinshihong from Yashiju and Laojiaohong from Wang Deji." ”

"How much is a bottle of Jinshi Hong?"

"I have to make it clear to the three of you first, because the Son of Heaven has recently celebrated his birthday, the price of wine has risen sharply, and the same is true for other wine shops, Jin Shihong has to pay a consistent price per bottle, is this price acceptable?"

Li Quan frowned, the price she sold to the Left Bank liquor shop was five hundred yuan, and these bastards actually doubled, it was too dark.

But it was impossible for her to choose someone else's wine, so she had to nod and say, "Then come a bottle of Jinshi Red!"

"Okay! The three of you will sit down for a while, and the food and drinks will come soon. The bartender hurried away.

Because of the different purchase channels, the quality of the wine is also different, everyone has named their wine, and Li Zhen has given a name to the eldest sister's wine, called Jinshihong.

During this time, Yashiju's Jinshi Red has become a famous wine in Luoyang, which is very popular with scholars, who doesn't want to be a high school jinshi?

Li Zhen stepped forward and asked with a low smile: "Sister, you sue me, how much money have you made during this time?"

Li Quanmei smiled, and whispered: "Sue you, sister, I have at least made this net profit." ”

She stretched out a finger, and Li Zhen was startled, no, she made a net profit of 10,000 yuan in just a few months, which is simply a big deal.

He suddenly understood why his sister's liquor store was kicked out when it first opened, just for this opportunity to make money!

At this time, Li Quan saw that her husband was thoughtful and absent-minded, so she knocked him unhappily, "Hey, what are you thinking about?"

Cao Wen 'shh

Li Zhen and Li Quan both listened with bated breath, and sure enough, they heard a few people next door talking about current affairs.

"The imperial heir has been demoted, I see that the saint wants to establish the Wu clan as the crown prince again, and my Tang Dynasty is sinking Ruosi, so that I can see the clouds?"

"Brother Ji Zhen is too worried, I think the demotion of the imperial heir is related to Wu Chenghe's demotion of the prince, I heard that the Wu family is very dissatisfied with Wu Chenghe's deprivation of the title, in order to balance the contradictions between Li Wu, it is reasonable for the imperial heir to be demoted. ”

"Both of you are not right, it should be that the king of Luling is coming back, and when he is the prince for a few years, the saint will demote him again, and bring the king up again, and the two brothers will take turns to play, anyway, they won't be able to get on the throne. ”

Li Quan was not interested in this kind of topic, so he turned his attention to his brother again, and joked with him: "I have seen that you are restless these days, are you thinking about that little girl?"

Di Renjie was demoted to Pengze County as a county magistrate, Di Yan also accompanied his father, and his friend Jiuzhi bought a small house covering an area of two or three acres near Beishi, and he also returned to Dunhuang to pick up his parents.

During this time, Li Zhen had no friends, and he seemed a little restless, and was always teased by his eldest sister Li Quan.

Li Zhen knew what the old lady was going to say later, so she hurriedly got up and said, "I'll go out and breathe!"

He went out in a panic, and Li Quan couldn't help laughing happily when he saw him running away.

Li Zhen walked out of the elegant room, stood in front of the railing and stared at the traffic in the south city, the eldest sister did say what was on his mind, he missed Di Yan a little bit during this time.

Although they didn't know each other for a long time, they were born and died together and established a deep friendship, Di Yan walked for more than a month, which made Li Zhen feel lost.

At this time, a gloomy laughter suddenly came from behind him, "Li Gongzi, we haven't seen each other for a long time!"
