After returning from the ceremony, Zhang Luan plunged into the room of his favorite concubine Situ Yan, buried his head and kept drinking stuffy tea without saying a word. Situ Yan stretched out his slender hand and gently pushed him, and asked observantly, "The master went back to the house today, and he seemed to be a little angry." Didn't the imperial court hold a grand ceremony today? Your son-in-law, the emperor, should be happy to select talents? By the way, Chen Wenqi, who is the same villager as his concubine, what did he record this time?"

Zhang Luan glanced at her, and said angrily: "Champion, are you happy?" Since he falsely accused Chen Wenqi of buying an official beard, he felt that he had lost his old face and his anger had been held back in his heart. In today's ceremony, the emperor appointed Chen Wenqi as the champion of liberal arts, and at this time, it was because of this that he was unhappy, Situ Yan asked, and suddenly broke out.

Situ Yan was choked by him, and he couldn't speak for a long time, and after relieving himself, he said: "Is it really the champion?

"Why did the old man lie to you? Don't believe it, there is a yellow list hanging on Chang'an Street, you can go and see it?"

"That'...... Jiao'er's grievances can't be recovered?"

"And say that your nephew who is not a weapon? Last time, the old man lost face, and he still thinks it is not enough?"

"Jiao'er is pitiful enough, the woman he likes has been taken away by others, he doesn't expect you, the brother-in-law who is the ruler of the country, to support him......, who else can he count on? If the concubine's body is taken away by others, are you willing?" Situ Yan said, tears flowed down, and she looked very aggrieved.

When Zhang Luan saw his favorite concubine crying, he immediately softened, took her in his arms, wiped the tears on her cheeks, and said warmly: "Okay, okay, aren't I worried about this matter? Go, call Jiao'er over and ask him to tell him about the situation surnamed Chen. ”

As soon as Situ Yan heard this, she turned from sadness to joy, and pecked Zhang Luan's wrinkled old face like a reward, got up and moved the three-inch golden lotus, and called Situ Jiao into the room, and the three of them muttered for most of the hour. Then, Zhang Luan stood up and said to Situ Yan: "Yin Weirong, the son of Yin Zhi, the right attendant of the military department, is on the throne of Jinke Wukui, and the old man is going to ask for a cup of wine to drink." After speaking, he took off his court clothes and changed into regular clothes, and went straight to Yin's mansion. In the evening, Zhang Luan, who was full of wine and food, left Yin's mansion, and went to the palace Jinyiwei for a turn, before returning home, and secretly said in his heart: The surname is Chen, let's see you at the martial arts banquet in Qionglin.

......

Qionglin Huiwu Banquet, to put it bluntly, is the combined name of Qionglin Banquet and Huiwu Banquet. Since the establishment of the imperial examination system, the four banquets of the imperial examination have been the most solemn and grand celebration banquets in the imperial examination. Because the imperial examination is divided into two subjects, the Luming Banquet and the Qionglin Banquet are the liberal arts banquets after the township examination and the palace examination, and the Yingyang banquet and the Huiwu banquet are the martial arts banquets after the township examination and the palace examination. The emperor ordered the Jinshi of the two disciplines of civil and military to gather in one banquet, that is, the Qionglin banquet and the martial banquet were combined into one, so he ingeniously called it the "Qionglin Huiwu Banquet".

In view of the fact that the emperor lives frugally and does not like to be quiet, the scale of the Qionglin Huiwu banquet is not large, only limited to the king, duke, marquis, and fourth rank of the four titles, and the civil and military ministers above the third grade and the first and second class jinshi of the new science and technology participate, and there is no ceremonial music, which is concise and peaceful. The new champion of civil and military affairs who participated in the banquet wore the crown dress of the royal red champion Jinshi and wore a hairpin black gauze hat, and the rest of the princes and ministers and the new branch of the Jinshi all wore regular clothes to the banquet.

Because of the emperor's royal drive in person, Qionglin Garden is heavily guarded, and the entrance and exit of each passage are guarded by the captain of the Jinyi Guard, and the participants in the banquet must go to the banquet gold medal (engraved with the three words "Grace Banquet") to enter the banquet hall. At the entrance, the captain guarding the gate saw Chen Wenqi dressed as a champion, and without waiting for him to show his gold medal for the banquet, he turned sideways and signaled him to enter the park.

"Wait. Chen Wenqi raised his leg and was about to enter the door when he was stopped by a brocade guard who looked like an official.

The official-looking brocade guard glared fiercely at the previous gatekeeper, pressed the handle of the knife on his waist with his right hand, and stretched out his left hand in front of Chen Wenqi: "Go to the banquet gold medal." ”

Chen Wenqi only said that he was on business, fulfilled the procedures, and hurriedly handed over the gold medal for the banquet in his hand. After the official-looking brocade guard took it, he didn't look at it, and said coldly: "Stand aside, don't get in the way." ”

Chen Wenqi was a little stunned, it can be said that he is one of the protagonists of today's Qionglin Martial Arts Banquet, and he will not be able to see that he is the new champion from the hairpin of the black gauze hat, but why did he stop himself? Find his own stubble? But he doesn't know him. Chen Wenqi was not in a hurry about whether he could get in, but he was surprised in his heart, who was this, how could he be so bold to stop the new champion from entering, was he not afraid of Long Yan's anger?

Weng Junding on the side thought that this brocade guard didn't know who Chen Wenqi was, so he said: "My lord, this is Chen Wenqi, the new champion, is there any problem?"

The man said proudly, "What about the new champions? The new champions also have to pay attention to the rules, right?" You see—" He pointed to the sign at the entrance, which read:

Those who do not have a gold medal for the banquet are not allowed to enter;

Those who do not wear court clothes (Xinke Jinshi wears Jinshi crown uniforms) are not allowed to enter;

Persons carrying weapons are not allowed to enter;

Those who are unkempt and untidy are not allowed to enter;

Those under the age of 30 with long hair and thick mustache (except for micro beards) are not allowed to enter.

Chen Wenqi was still puzzled, which one of his rules did not match? The man rolled his eyes and said, "Please touch your chin and go to the banquet with a beard, and you are not afraid of being blamed by the saints?" ”

Chen Wenqi is less than twenty years old, and there is only sparse hair on his lips that cannot be called a beard, although he has not cleaned it up for a long time when he has been out of the house, and it is not at all related to the long beard and thick mustache, so he said with a smile: "Where is there a beard underneath? Even if there is, it can only be regarded as a 'slight beard', right?" he pointed to the last item of the notice.

"Weixu, do you know what 'micro' is?" The brocade guard was very impulsive, and said with a teaching posture: "Micro, nothing, this is the annotation of the great Confucian Zhu Wengong of the previous dynasty, you will not say that you have not read the 'Four Books and Chapters and Sentences Collection Annotations', right?"

Chen Wenqi was secretly amused, he took the meaning out of context and knew nothing, but accused others of not learning and not knowing, and he didn't bother to argue with him at the moment, and sneered at him: "Then according to Your Excellency's understanding, the 'Confucius' recorded in "Mencius" ...... 'Passing through the Song Dynasty in micro-service', does it mean that the old master passed through the Song Kingdom naked and naked?"

As soon as the words fell, the people around him burst into laughter, and the brocade guard opened his mouth and had nothing to refute, he wanted to humiliate Chen Wenqi, but he was ridiculed by him.

At this moment, a Jinyi guard in a flying fish suit commanded Tongzhi and walked over and asked the Jinyi guard who looked like an official: "Liang De, the holy car is about to arrive, why don't you invite Chen Zhuangyuan in?"

It turns out that this person is Liang De! Chen Wenqi couldn't help but glance at him more, and firmly embedded his appearance in his mind.

"Ah, that's it...... Chen Zhuangyuan, please. "The official rank of the commander Tongzhi is higher than that of the Zhenfu envoy (Liang De has been an official to the Fusi Zhenfu envoy of Jinyi Weibei Town), and Liang De can't help but listen to the words of the boss, he changed his previous domineering posture, sideways to open the door, and pretended to humbly invite Chen Wenqi to enter Qionglin Yuan.

In Qionglin Garden, Chen Wenqi's master Liu Jian was looking around, and when he saw Chen Wenqi and them coming in, he said in a reproachful tone: "Wenqi, why did you come so late? You are the protagonist of today's banquet." ”

Chen Wenqi said slightly apologetically: "It's a little bit of a small thing to delay for a while, and Master Lau has been waiting for a long time." ”

Weng Junding was not angry, and was about to say that he was blocked from entering the garden, but Chen Wenqi secretly pulled him and signaled him not to speak, so as not to cause extraneous branches and ruin the atmosphere of the banquet.

It didn't take long for the emperor to arrive. After the long live ceremony, Xu Pu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, who presided over the banquet, announced loudly: "The Holy Lord's edict, in order to celebrate the talents of the imperial court and the scholars to ascend to the branch, today we will host a grand celebration banquet in Qionglin Yuan, and invite all the princes and ministers and new science and technology scholars to drink without formality. ”

It is said that there is no need to be formal, but basic etiquette is still unavoidable. According to the rules, Chen Wenqi led the scholars of liberal arts to bow down in front of the emperor and toast to the emperor, and then saluted and toasted the princes and ministers in turn. The same is true for Yin Wei, the champion of the new science and technology. After the salutation, all the people returned to their places and made peace with each other.

Chen Wenqi is a young talent, and his champion dress is even more graceful, coupled with his gentle and elegant manners, the ministers praised him and talked to him one after another. This time, Yin Wei, who is also the champion of the new department, felt despised by others, and felt quite unhappy in his heart, and saw that the current national abbot Zhang Luan frequently made eyes, so he filled the wine glass in front of him with wine, ready to attack Chen Wenqi.

Yin Wei's father, Yin Zhi, saw it on the side, shook his head lightly at him, signaled him to be restless, and he picked up the wine glass, walked to the middle of the hall, bowed to the emperor Zhu Youjiao, and said: "Your Majesty, today's Qionglin martial arts feast, how can there be wine without literature? I heard that Chen Wenqi, the champion of the new science and literature, is good at joint pairing, and the old minister has two upper alliances who want to invite Chen Zhuangyuan to come to the right and implore the emperor to give permission. ”

When Zhu Youzhu heard this, he also wanted to see Chen Wenqi's talent in person, so he nodded and agreed.

Chen Wenqi already knew about Yin Zhi, the squire of the military department. This person has a jealous personality, does not self-examine, although he entered the 99th place in the palace examination in the Chenghua years, but because he was impatient and enterprising, he was not willing, and then he was willing to meet the power of Li Zi Province, and then he took the middle order from the fifth grade to the right attendant of the third grade of the military department. At this time, come forward to ask for the right, what kind of heart is An?

Yin Zhi came to Chen Wenqi's table with a wine glass, glanced at Liu Jian with slanted eyes, and said: "I heard that Chen Zhuangyuan's collection of poems is a must. However, it is necessary to collect poems by the same author. Otherwise, Chen Zhuangyuan's literary brilliance will not be revealed. ”

It is very difficult to collect poems to form couplets, not only to retain the words and sentences of the original text, but also to make the upper and lower couplets into a new language, and to come up with new ideas, which is very difficult in itself, and it is even more difficult if it is limited to couplets in the poems of the same author. Some upright ministers already knew that Yin Zhi wanted to make Chen Wenqi make a fool of himself in front of the emperor, and they couldn't help but be secretly worried about Chen Wenqi.

Chen Wenqi is well-read and has a strong memory, and is not afraid of Yin Zhi's difficulties. He stood up, bowed to Yin Zhi, and said without humility or arrogance: "Please ask Lord Yin to solve the question, and do your best." ”

Yin Zhi raised his head and said: "'What do I want to ask for when I am born, and I will be five weeks old in Guishan. Traveling thousands of miles and half the world, the monk lies in a nunnery at the beginning of the white head'. With 'traveling thousands of miles and half the world' as the upper link, please ask Chen Zhuangyuan to make the next link. ”

This is the poem "Turtle Mountain" by the famous writer Su Shi in the Song Dynasty, and the next couplet naturally uses Su Shi's verses.

Chen Wenqi thought for a while, and then said: "In the next 'look to the west is too white and horizontal, the eyes are high and there is no one in the sea and the sky', and the 'eyes are high and there is no one in the sea and the sky', adults will see if it is okay?"

"Wonderful. This is a poem from Dongpo Jushi's "Li Taibai Zhen Shown by Shudan Yuanzi", and it is also very neat. Shao Zhan Shi and Attendant Xie Qian didn't wait for Yin Zhi to speak, and praised first. Xie Qian's knowledge is well known, he said okay, Yin Zhi wanted to say no, and he couldn't.

"Come again. 'Don't complain about the people with lofty ideals: it is difficult to use ancient materials. Shanglian uses the sentence 'ancient materials are difficult to use'. ”

This seems to imply contempt for Chen Wenqi: Although you are talented, you are embarrassed to be of great use.

Chen Wenqi heard what he said, thought for a while, and said with a smile: "This is the last sentence of Du Zimei's "Gu Bai Xing", well-the first sentence of "Nine Days Lantian Cui's Village": "'Old age is sad and autumn is strong and self-forgiving'." "Said and said: "'Old age is sad and self-forgiving, and today is happy.'" Shame will blow the hat with short hair, and laugh at others for the crown'. ”

Yin Zhi heard the implicit meaning of Chen Wenqi's next link, but he was annoyed and annoyed, and he was angry.

Yin Wei saw that his father was at a disadvantage, he couldn't bear it anymore, and came to Chen Wenqi with a wine glass: "Chen Zhuangyuan really deserves his reputation, he puffs out his tongue and puffs out his lips, and he talks exaggeratedly, but he is undeserved." Since it is the 'Qionglin Martial Arts Banquet' today, Chen Zhuangyuan should not monopolize the limelight. In this way, how about competing with Chen Zhuangyuan in two games with their respective strengths, and helping the emperor and all the adults to enjoy the wine?"

Wu Zhuangyuan is called Banwen Zhuangyuan, which is a rare interesting thing. Everyone put down the bowls, chopsticks, and wine glasses in their hands, waiting for how they competed.

How do you know that Chen Wenqi shook his hand and said: "I have only read a few volumes of the books of sages and sages, and I have nothing else to do." Yin Zhuangyuan is both civil and military, and he is beyond his reach. Not comparable, not comparable. ”

Yin Wei smiled proudly, and said magnanimously: "Since Chen Zhuangyuan doesn't know martial arts, it's not easy to force it." In the next place, with the length of Chen Zhuangyuan, out of a couplet, please Chen Zhuangyuan continue. ”

After that, he said: "The two boats go together, and the speed of the oars is as fast as the sails." ”

Everyone only said that Yin Wei really had his own experience, but he didn't know that he was taking the things of his predecessors and dismissing the text, and he couldn't help laughing.

Chen Wenqi also felt funny at first, and then thought about it, this Yin Wei is said to be quite good in addition to martial arts, how can he take such a couplet? Could it be that there is something wrong with it?

Chen Wenqi thought of all kinds of strange things that had happened since he entered Beijing, first Hua Chang and Zhang Luan impeached him for buying official posts, and then Liang De, the Jinyi guard, made it difficult to investigate, and now Yin Zhi's father and son are taking turns to call out, why did he come here? He has never had anything to do with these people! Could it be that he ...... Chen Wenqi suddenly remembered the familiar figure in the canteen of the "Tongfu Inn", could it be that these have something to do with him?

Chen Wenqi was silent for a long time, Yin Wei thought that he couldn't come up for a while, and said half-mockingly and half-urgingly: "I heard that Chen Zhuangyuan is a master of joint pairing, isn't it worthy of the name?"

Weng Junding next to him didn't know why Chen Wenqi didn't speak for a long time, and he was anxious for him, but he couldn't ask questions in public, for fear of arousing the suspicion of others.

Chen Wenqi is indeed a little embarrassed, if he is opposed to the original couplet of his predecessors, he will definitely give people the feeling of "Jiang Lang's talent", if he continues to be right, he is afraid that others will say that he is selling off his literary talents. looked around, but saw a group of civil and military generals looking at him, and there was something strange in his expression. Chen Wenqi suddenly woke up to the fact that Yin Wei wanted to introduce himself into the middle of the world and provoke unhappiness between the civil and military forces. Thinking of this meaning, I had a plan in my heart, and then I said:

It seems that Yin Zhuangyuan is not only famous for his martial arts, but also extraordinary in his writing. Yin Wei listened to Chen Wenqi's words, and immediately became proud, he didn't know that Chen Wenqi's words were sarcastic, first promoted and then suppressed, not praising him: "But listening to Yin Zhuangyuan's uplink, it reminded me of an anecdote in this dynasty......

Before Chen Wenqi finished speaking, Yin Wei intercepted and said: "I asked Your Excellency for the right thing, but Your Excellency said something anecdote." Could it be that it is difficult for Your Excellency to continue the match, so that you will not be able to delay time?"

Chen Wenqi was not in a hurry or impatient, still smiling and said: "Wait until this anecdote is finished, if Yin Zhuangyuan wants to continue to be right in the next place, he will obey his fate." After speaking, he didn't wait for Yin Wei to answer, and then told the anecdote: "In the thirteenth year of Yongle, Chen Qia, who was in charge of the Ministry of War at the time, was sent to the British Gongzhang Auxiliary Army to supervise the army. The British public saw Chen Qia's scholar, so he jokingly gave Chen Qia a link: 'The two boats go together, and the speed of the oars is as fast as the sails.' This uplink uses homophony, which not only refers to the fact that the boat did not sail fast, but also alludes to the fact that Lu Su in the Three Kingdoms was not as good as Fan Xu in the Western Han Dynasty. Of course, this is a little joke made by the British Duke and Chen Jianjun. Although it is a joke, it is said that Lu Su is not as good as Fan Xu, but it also implies that Wen is not as good as Wu. Of course, Chen Jianjun could hear the meaning of the British Gong's lianzhong, so he came up with the next couplet: 'The eight notes play in unison, and the flute is difficult to compare with the flute', and its subtext is self-evident. We and other juniors should not comment on the sages, but the views of the two seniors are a bit biased. Wen Anbang, Wu Ding country, only the harmony of the country, the rule of culture and martial arts, complement each other, the country can be long-term stability. ”

"Okay, Takami. As soon as he said that, all the civil and military officials present were in a good mood and couldn't help but cheer loudly.

These words also talked about Emperor Zhu Youjiao's heart, and he couldn't help but nod slightly.

"Yin Zhuangyuan, do you think you still need to continue in the next step?" asked Chen Wenqi.

Yin Wei Yileng, originally wanted to embarrass him with this sensitive couplet, lead him to the lower couplet of "martial arts is not as good as literature", and make him the target of the military attachés present, but unexpectedly set up a stage for him, leading to the high-profile of "making peace", listening to the emperor's happiness and the applause of the ministers, but let him take the lead and be in the limelight. He rolled his eyes and continued to ask:

Chen Zhuangyuan is high, and Yin admires. But what you said will be harmonious, don't you think that martial arts are inferior to literature in your bones?"

"How so?" Chen Wenqi asked rhetorically.

"If Lian Po doesn't take the initiative to ask Lin Xiangru for the guilt, does Chen Zhuangyuan think that he will be able to reconcile?" Yin Weizhen resigned, thinking that he had caught Chen Wenqi's flaw.

When everyone heard this, they laughed and laughed. Even Yin Zhi secretly scolded the unassuming thing in his heart, and glared at him fiercely.

"Lin Xiangru avoids the road first, and General Lian is behind, according to Your Excellency, who is strong and who is weak? It can only be said that the conduct of the two sages is much higher than that of my generation. What's more, governing the country and securing the country, the emphasis is on strategizing and winning a decisive victory thousands of miles away, if the country needs it, civil officials can also give orders, and military generals can also govern the temple, so why bother to divide the high and low?" Chen Wenqi is like a master teaching his disciples, and he talks eloquently.

The more calm Chen Wenqi is, the more angry Yin Wei is, if he doesn't let him be a little ugly today, not only will the national ruler underestimate his own ability, but in the hearts of hundreds of civil and military officials and even the emperor, he may be overshadowed as a martial champion.

"In this way, Chen Zhuangyuan thinks that he is a person who is going to enter the picture, but I don't know if Your Excellency is equally powerful in addition to your tongue?" Yin Wei was annoyed and angry, he couldn't write well, he wanted to give Chen Wenqi a good look with his own strengths.

Liu Jian, who was on the side, had long been disgusted by the aggressive approach of Yin Zhi's father and son, but because he was the owner of Chen Wenqi's two tests (township test and meeting test), speaking out was easy to arouse suspicion and criticism from the "friends", so he has been holding back. Now Yin Wei actually has the intention of "using force" with Chen Wenqi, if he does not stop it, the consequences will be unimaginable. If you can't avoid suspicion at the moment, you have to stop it.

Before Liu Jian could speak, Emperor Zhu Youjiao, who was sitting in a high position, spoke: "Yin Aiqing, Chen Aiqing is a scholar, and he has no power to restrain the chicken, who is your opponent in his fists and feet? ”

The emperor opened Chrysostom, where did Yin Wei dare to insist? He had no choice but to return to his seat and drink alcohol.

Zhang Luan saw that the two chess pieces he laid couldn't help Chen Wenqi, and the boss was unhappy in his heart. At the moment, he didn't care about the identity of the national abbot, and pretended to congratulate Chen Wenqi and said: "Chen Zhuangyuan has topped the list in the township examination, the general examination and the palace examination, which is really a rare talent in my dynasty, which is gratifying." ”

Chen Wenqi hurriedly saluted Zhang Luan and said, "Thank you for the Hou Ye's false praise." Maybe it's a coincidence, a few test questions have been studied on weekdays, and it's not worth mentioning."

Zhang Luan smiled "hehe", and changed his words: "Chen Zhuangyuan should not be too humble, in history, 'three yuan and first' can be described as rare. Take my dynasty as an example, do you know that since the opening of the department in the seventeenth year of Hongwu, how many people have enjoyed the honor of 'three yuan and first'?"

Zhang Luan is cunning and cunning, and this question can be described as extremely vicious.

During the banquet, everyone knows that the Ming Dynasty has been one hundred and twenty-two years since the founding of the country, although there are countless scholars in scientific examinations, but those who can be called 'three yuan and first', except for Chen Wenqi, who are undergraduates, only Xin Weike Huangguan and Yichou Ke are only two people.

The veteran Shang of the Three Dynasties, who had just passed away, was called "I am a virtuous man in the dynasty, and the first merchant is the first", which is already a foregone conclusion and is naturally beyond reproach. However, Huang Guan's "Three Yuan and First" is a topic that the government and the opposition have been silent about for nearly 70 years since Yongle.

In the twenty-fourth year of Hongwu, Huang Guan participated in the palace examination personally inquired by Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang. In his strategy, he strongly advocated that "the troops are plugged, and the cultivation and guard, if you come, you will refuse, and if you go, you will prevent it, then China will not disturb it, and the border will be safe", so as to win the praise of Zhu Yuanzhang, and the first place (champion) in the hand-picked palace test, awarded the Hanlin Academy to revis, and was the first Jinshi of "Lianzhong Sanyuan" after the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Not only that, he passed the county, government, hospital, township, meeting, and palace six examinations at the county, government, hospital, township, meeting, and palace levels, and won the first place. When Taizu died, because the crown prince Zhu Biao died early, he ordered the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen to succeed him to the throne, which was for Emperor Hui. Zhu Di, the king of Yan, believed in his uncle, had an arrogant attitude, and did not worship Emperor Hui when he entered the court. The ministers in the palace were afraid of his power, and most of them were silent, but Huang Guan confronted Zhu Di in front of him and said: "The tiger worships the sky, and the palace performs the courtesy of the monarch and the minister; In the fourth year of Jianwen, Zhu Di launched the "Jingjing", raised troops in Beiping Mansion, approached Nanjing, and announced the list of "civilian traitors", and Huang Guan ranked sixth. At that time, Huang Guan urged all parts of the Yangtze River to go to help, and when the boat traveled to the Rakshasa Rock in the lower reaches of Anqing, he learned that Emperor Hui had died, and King Yan had ascended the throne. After Huang Guan's death, Zhu Di, who had ascended the throne, was still angry, and ordered to delete Huang Guan's name in "Dengke Lu".

As a tragic figure in the palace struggle, Huang Guan can be dismissed, executed, and exterminated by the Nine Clans. But from a historical point of view, Huang Guan's fame and background cannot be erased. Although there is no name of Huang Guanqi in "Dengkelu", Xin Weike has a champion but it is a real history. If we ignore history and avoid mentioning Huang Guan, what is the discipline of a scholar? But if we mention Huang Guan, we may be guilty of defrauding the king. Looking at today, in addition to Emperor Zhu Youjiao, there are many princes, they are all descendants of Emperor Taizong (other descendants of Taizu, after nearly a hundred ups and downs, some have lost their thrones), it is strange that these princes and princes do not rise up and attack them.

Although Chen Wenqi has a gentle temperament, he also has a stubborn side of a scholar. For him, who regards personal ethics as more important than life, since there is no way to avoid it, he has to face it head-on, and there is no choice between life and death.

Thinking of this, Chen Wenqi said slowly: "Chen entered Beijing for the first time, and he and Hou Ye are even more ignorant. Today, Hou Ye does not weigh Chen's knowledge, but he asks about the old things of the dynasty that everyone knows, and I don't know whether he is afraid of embarrassing Chen, or if he has other intentions? But in any case, when Hou Ye asks, Chen cannot answer. However, if Chen is mishandled, Hou Ye, the person who asked the question, will also have a problem. ”

"You ......" Zhang Luan was about to have a seizure when he heard it. How did he not know that Chen Wenqi's words were going to tie him up with himself.

"Master Hou, don't worry, Chen will get to the point. Chen is a shallow learner, and he is lucky to win the township test, the meeting test, and the palace test, which is the grace of the saints and the wrong love of the adults, not to mention being compared with the sages, even compared with the same year in today's garden, it is not necessarily smart. As for the sages of "Lianzhong Sanyuan", Chenghua's first auxiliary businessman deserves it. ”

Chen Wenqi said this, except for the emperor Zhu Youzhu and the royal princes, the other civil and military officials were disappointed. Some upright ministers originally had a good impression of Chen Wenqi's performance today, but at this time they were a little ashamed of his character, and said in their hearts that this person was just a person who tended to be inflammatory, and he did not have the integrity of a scholar to adhere to the truth, while Zhang Luan was disappointed because he did not achieve his goal.

Unexpectedly, Chen Wenqi changed his words and said bluntly: "In addition to Shang Gong, Huang Guandang, a scholar of Xinwei Kejin during the Hongwu period, was the first person in the Ming Dynasty's 'Three Yuan and First'......"

Before the words fell, there was a commotion when the prince was neutral.

"Chen Wenqi, you are so bold, the ancestor of the emperor has already deposed the reputation of Huang Guan's traitorous minister, and you dare to mention him?"

"Chen Wenqi, are you here to overturn the case for Huang Guan's traitor?"

"Chen Wenqi has committed the crime of bullying the king, and I implore the emperor to be strict. ”

“......”

Zhang Luan listened to the angry voice of Man Yuan, and was proud in his heart, thinking that Chen Wenqi, your good days are coming. The Chinese military officials looked at each other and turned their heads to look at Emperor Zhu Youxi. I saw Zhu Youzhu frowning slightly, put the teacup on the table, pressed it with his hand towards the prince's seat, stopped the princes' noise, and then "coughed" heavily......
