Taipingfang is in the southwest of the imperial city, which is a place where dignitaries gather, and Wang Jie's new residence is here.

Wang Jiao was born as a concubine, and his old house was in Anle Fang, the southernmost part of Chang'an City, which belonged to a poor place. The new house was newly completed, and it was splendidly golden, and even the railing of the well was made of Bo Den.

It is worth mentioning that there is a "self-rain pavilion" in the house, which is built by the craftsmen of the Western Regions of the Whisk Country, every time he walks in and sits down, there will be a waterfall flowing down on the eaves of the pavilion, even if it is a hot summer, the pavilion is still cool as autumn.

Wang Jian also built an embassy next to his house, and he held 20 positions, and there was an endless stream of people asking him to review official documents every day.

On this day, he had no intention of doing these official duties.

"The right minister said that he entered the palace to calm down the situation, but this situation is getting bigger and bigger?"

Pei Mian stepped forward and reminded in a low voice: "I'm afraid that the right minister underestimated Xue Bai too much." ”

Wang Ji didn't pay much attention to Xue Bai before, so he couldn't help but wonder and asked, "A vertical son, with such a big energy?" ”

"There's the mastermind behind the shaft. Li Shizhi asked for debasement and release, but the thunderous means of the right minister could not be used; The so-called 'Five Sons of Chunqiu' in Chang'an City is gaining momentum and getting bigger and bigger; Du Fu has written famous articles one after another to show that there are sages in the field; Zheng Qian is invited to re-examine...... Behind all this, it is all due to the conspiracy of Xue Bai and the people behind the scenes. ”

"How so?"

"Yesterday, a painting was hung in the lobby of Fengwei Building, which attracted many onlookers. I also took the painter to copy one and asked the prince to look at it, and the name of the person who signed the payment was Han Yu. ”

Wang Ji watched Pei Mian slowly unfold a scroll, and when he saw the beautiful purple-robed official, his eyes were fixed, and his face became complicated.

finally knew why the situation was out of control after the right minister entered the palace.

He turned his back and waved his hand to put the painting away.

"The ridicule of the right phase in this painting is really too much." Pei Mian said: "They did it on purpose, not only to improve their prestige, but also to find out the personal grievances with the right minister, so that the right minister would be restrained if he wanted to deal with him." ”

Wang Ji turned around, looked serious, and said: "It was the right minister who was afraid of the people of the grass and the wilderness who said nothing, so I was asked to preside over the scientific expedition and depose them." Now that it's like this, can I bear the consequences? ”

Pei Mian understood what he meant.

Wang Ji is not as jealous and jealous as Li Linfu, and he is not very interested in these things, and he has been busy paying tribute to the saint recently, and he does not want to be involved in right and wrong.

"Prince, why don't you do this?" Pei Mian said in a low voice: "Just give the so-called 'five sons of Chunqiu' to ......"

He reached out and slashed in the air.

Wang Ji squinted and shook his head.

"No one will suspect that we did it." Pei Mian said: "I will only think that it was done by the right minister." ”

"It's not worth getting into trouble for something like this."

Although Wang Ji is in charge of the test, as long as the sage knows that he is acting on Li Linfu's orders, even if he really finds out the fraud and repeats the test, although he has losses, he will not be able to hurt the roots.

On the contrary, if he kills people and is found out, he will turn against Li Linfu and provoke the jealousy of the saints......

Pei Mian saw Wang Jie's expression, and immediately understood that the right phase was planning to compromise temporarily.

The trouble that should be eliminated Yang Zhao has been removed, and it doesn't matter who is the Jinshi.

Tianbao has also tried it again in the second year, but it can't hurt the foundation of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but if he fights with Xue Bai, the matter will be too big, and it will make the sage feel that this prime minister is not easy to use.

"Ah Lang, the envoy of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion is here, summoning you and Pei Yushi to ......"

~~

Li Linfu put down the scroll in his hand, his face was extremely ugly.

But the more this time, the more he had to calm down.

You have to figure out what the saint thinks, the saint will be a little unhappy when he sees this painting, but what if the concubine says she likes it?

If you rush to Miyagi, it is not difficult to think of the scene after that......

"The shaft is rampant, dare to make people draw dominoes?!"

"The saint was angry, the boy was formless, because the brother slave served me for the card, he was too proud, so he told the painter that he dreamed of playing dominoes with the gods and asked him to draw."

"I see, who doesn't know can see that this is a saint? It's still a fairy. ”

"Well, looking at it like this, this painting is actually not bad, and the painting of me and the concubine is very charming......"

Li Linfu sighed slightly, knowing that it would only make everyone know about it, and the government and the opposition made fun of it.

Thinking about it again, he knew that Xue Bai was deliberately provoking him.

At the moment, all the scholars are watching the excitement, no matter how he responds, the matter will only get bigger and bigger, in case he can't suppress it and make the saint feel troublesome...... The consequences are unimaginable.

Compared with the mood of the saints, the quota for the imperial examination is a trivial matter.

Quelling his anger, he looked at the last piece of the scroll and muttered.

"Han Yu?"

After a long investigation, the person behind Xue Bai finally began to surface. But why did you think about it for a long time and never recall that there was such a figure in the court?

After a long time, Wang Ji and Pei Mian arrived.

Li Linfu asked Pei Mian first, "What do you think of the painting hanging in Fengwei Building?" ”

"Right Prime Minister, Xia Guan is really angry when he sees it, Xue Bai is too deceitful!"

"It doesn't matter." Li Linfu said with an open-minded smile, "I ask you, what do you think of the person who made the payment?" ”

Pei Mian muttered: "Presumably, everything Xue Bai did came from Han Yu's guidance, no wonder he could write such poems." Just looking at that painting, this person's calligraphy and painting skills are superb, the painting scene is wanton, the painter is delicate and exquisite, and the painting style is in the same vein, which shows that the craftsmanship is profound. Calligraphy is also good, although it is not as good as Zhang Xu and Yan Zhenqing, it can also be said to be everyone. ”

Saying that, after hesitating for a moment, he continued: "This person made a move, a painting seems to be a work of jokes, but it is very hindering to the reputation of the right minister, and his scheming is deep. ”

"Benxiang doesn't care about these false names, he wants to find him."

"The strange thing is, why is such a person unknown? There is also a detail, he does not have a seal, it should be a pseudonym. ”

"Look."

"Whoa."

The more Li Linfu thought about it, the more jealous he became, the more determined he was in his heart, and he opened his mouth to give instructions to Wang Jie.

"The weeds in the meadow have been removed, and the madmen are making a lot of noise right now. Before they could expose the leak, they were allowed to re-test. ”

"Right phase?"

"I've made up my mind."

Wang Ji expected this situation that day, so he resolutely refused to let go of Yuan Jie and others, and wanted to use Li Shi's case to establish authority. At this time, he was full of resentment, but he had nothing to say, so he had to respond respectfully.

At this time, a clerk hurriedly came and said, "Ah Lang, the lifters have gathered, I'm afraid it's going to make trouble!" ”

~~

"The five sons of Chunfu are here!"

Guozijian, all the lifters turned their heads to look, and sure enough, they saw five men walking out of the Taixue Hall.

One of them was not Yuan Jie, but the younger Xue Bai.

"Gentlemen, be silent, listen to me. We have asked for a retest, but if the saint asks the reason, can you answer? ”

"The imperial examination is unfair, and no one in the cloth is the first!"

"This is not a reason, what the court wants to see is evidence." Xue Bailang said: "My teacher Yan Gong is the lieutenant of Chang'an County, and he has found evidence of Gong Yu's leakage. Today, I will present it to the Imperial History Terrace, please go with me to see the process of the imperial court to find out the truth, and ask for a retest! ”

It was the first time he had presided over the matter in public, but he gave a solution as soon as he opened his mouth.

A little less blood, a little more calm.

For the people, after many days of trouble, they finally saw the dawn of victory, and they were all excited, raising their arms and cheering.

"Did you hear that from the back? There is proof, try again! Try again! ”

"Evidence has been found, and a retest is in sight!"

"I don't have to make trouble, just go to the Yushitai to see the results!"

“……”

The five sons of Chunfu maintained order and led the lifters to the imperial city.

Along the way, they sang Du Fu's new poems.

This poem Du Fu has already brewed a lot of sentences, and originally planned to write about it later. After this incident, he was angry and wrote a long poem called "Twenty-two Rhymes of the Saints".

"If you don't starve to death, Ruguan is more mistaken."

"The saint tries to listen quietly, and the asks Gu Chen."

“……”

The poetry is full of people's indignation and dissatisfaction.

Many of them actually know that they can't get ahead at all, after all, there are only dozens of places for two or three thousand candidates. But they want to give their hard work a minimum of respect.

From Wubenfang to the west, go to the wide Vermilion Bird Street, attracting countless Chang'an people to watch.

So Juzi mixed with the people and went north along Suzaku Street, like a sea tide, and slowly poured to the Suzaku Gate directly south of the imperial city.

The gates of the city are majestic, and the guards are holding halberds to stop them.

"Retreat!"

"Retreat! Are you going to rebel?! ”

The five sons of Chunfu came out side by side.

Xue Bai said: "We are the prisoners of the country, and the tributes of various prefectures, counties and townships, so we are not here to make trouble." ”

Yuan Jie said loudly: "Come here to apply for the law of the country!" ”

"Retreat!"

"We are scholars, not rioters."

"Retreat!"

"If the general won't let us in, then we'll wait here for a result."

The Janissaries wielded halberds like wood, and they just didn't let the crowd into the Imperial City.

Xue Bai and the others were not in a hurry, they just waited.

The sun hid in the clouds and came out again, and more and more people gathered in front of the Suzaku Gate.

The sackclothed lifters were like snowflakes pouring in, piled up like snow. Look at the lively people like sand, gathering, gradually there is a vast trend.

Du Wulang was very proud at first, and occasionally glanced back, but was frightened by this meeting, so he quietly pulled Xue Bai over and muttered in a low voice.

"Are we going to make a big fuss and end badly?"

"The bigger the trouble, the more difficult it will be to end up with the brother slave."

Du Wulang was still puzzled and asked, "It's so simple, can it really make my brother soft?" ”

"Did he drive Jin Wuwei to kill us?"

"Huh?"

Xue Bai's eyes were determined, and he patted Du Wulang's shoulder.

At this time, a team of officials drove horses, and the leader was wearing a crimson official robe with a deep expression, it was Wang Jie.

"Why are you here?!"

Wang Ji grabbed the reins, looked around at the crowd, and shouted, "Who is taking the lead in making trouble?!" ”

"I'm not waiting to make trouble." Yuan Jie responded proudly, "I came for the big event of selecting talents in the Tang Dynasty." ”

As he spoke, Wang Jie's guards had already drawn their swords and pointed at the five people.

The five of them were not afraid, and even Du Wulang maintained his momentum.

They knew to each other that the time had come for compromise.

Compromise is a very important part of the art of power.

But the more it came to compromise, Wang Jie's face became more and more serious, and he put on a solemn and solemn posture.

"Nonsense! The worse the article, the more troublesome it is, are you worthy of being a protégé of the Son of Heaven?! ”

Xue Bai's lips raised slightly and smiled.

Although I didn't do my best, such as defeating Li Linfu, it was good to be able to win the retest.

Under the hands of the emperor and the prime minister, who have the power of life and death, and at the risk of being eaten alive by them at any time, it is not easy to get a result.

It's just a retest, it's supposed to be, and you don't even need to ask for a retest to be the way it should be.

In any case, it became a ......

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves galloped towards them, and a clear cry resounded in front of the city gates.

"Wang Jie! Dare to deceive me Datang talent?! ”

The galloping young man was dressed in angry horses, and behind him were all fat cavalry guards, mighty and radiant.

"King Quang Binh!"

There was a shout, and the people in front of the Suzaku Gate were all happy.

"King Guangping has come to administer justice for us!"

“……”

There were cheers, Xue Bai turned his head to look, but his eyes were cold.

Wang Jie's face was also uncertain, faintly tingling with some anger, and it was better to directly agree to ask the sage to retake the test. At this time, the East Palace sent the emperor and grandson to fight for this prestige, and it was embarrassing to make it difficult to let it or not.

"Phew!"

Li Jiao's equestrian skills were superb, and he went straight to the city gate before turning over and dismounting, stepped forward in three or two steps, stood in front of the five sons of Chunqiu, spread his hands, protected them behind him, and blocked Wang Jiao alone.

As the saint's favorite grandson, he is known for his "extraordinary instrument, profound measurement, wide and able to break", this scene is heroic, and it is more and more popular with the hearts of all the people.

Facing Wang Jie, a person that everyone in Chang'an feared, Li Jiao was also majestic, and said: "When you see this king, you still don't get off the horse?!" ”

Wang Ji dismounted at this time and greeted each other.

"This is the spring of the branch, you are in charge of the test, then?"

"Yes."

"No one in the system is on the list, and no one in the cloth is on the list, but also?"

"The lower officials review the rankings, only look at the articles, not look at the others."

"Good!" Li Jiao raised his voice and shouted: "Then the king asks you again, can someone leak the question?!" ”

“……”

Xue Bai listened, knowing that Donggong had already anticipated his plan, this was a Yang plan, and it was easy to speculate.

At this time, Yan Zhenqing was already preparing to present evidence in the Imperial History Tower, and the arrow was ready to be sent, and it was even more imperative for the East Palace to grab prestige, so he could only let it.

What needs to be guarded against, but it's another matter......

~~

"Alang!"

There was a sound in the hall, and it was Cangbi who rushed to report the news that hit the screen.

"Donggong has made a move! The emperor's grandson, King Guangping, came forward to fight for a retest, and now the Suzaku Gate is full of people, and the news is afraid that it will soon reach Daming Palace! ”

Li Linfu was happy at first, but when he thought about it, he was shocked, and then his face became complicated and depressed.

"Damn."

He stood up and pushed the stool down.

"The world scolds me for bullying the prince, but who knows that he is extremely dangerous? I didn't hurt him in the slightest, but he won hearts everywhere! ”

Cangbi hurriedly knelt down, knowing that Ah Lang was angry again this time.

"Bang!"

Some porcelain was pushed to the ground, and Li Linfu had lost his temper.

"Blame me for the Wei Jian case? It's his henchmen who check more and more! The more you check, the more you look! Only the saint understands me, who is bullying whom all these years?! ”

Cangbi didn't want to hear it, but these words poured into his ears one after another, so that he didn't want to hear it, but he still understood it.

Ah Lang can't fight the East Palace, and I'm afraid he will lose again this time......

~~

"Who dares to stop it?!"

In front of the Suzaku Gate, with Li Jiao's loud roar, the guards had to get out of the way and let the young King of Guangping and his sons enter the imperial city.

Wang Ji silently stepped aside.

This retreat, the dust of the retest has settled.

Following Tianbao's second year's "dragging the white champion", Tianbao's six-year "wild and unrelenting sage" has become a laughing stock again, but since it can be called "again" is not a big deal after all.

What is left for everyone to talk about is that the five sons of Chunfu were implicated by Li Shizhi and imprisoned, and after being released from prison, they continued to advocate for the son, and the king of Guangping came forward angrily, which will surely achieve their prestige.

In terms of prestige, Xue Bai knew that they still gained a lot, although they were divided by the East Palace.

Yuan Jie suddenly pulled him.

The two of them ducked to the side.

"The emperor and grandson come forward at this time, I'm afraid it's not a good thing for the princes."

"Hmm."

"How do we do it?"

Xue Bai glanced in the direction of the city gate and said in a low voice: "Since the East Palace has come forward and done everything completely, Wei Jian's case can be closed together." ”
