Chapter 199 "Jian'er, you should be careful, I have told you these two days, remember to be cautious in your words and deeds."
"You must never ask for a replacement reward like before."
At the gate of the palace, Father Sheng confessed to Li Yi.
Li Yi nodded, with a calm look in his eyes.
He dared to ask the emperor to change the reward when he was in the imperial examination, because he was sure that the emperor would not hold him accountable for this matter. After all, Father Sheng belonged to his faction.
As long as he is not treasonous, the emperor will not pay attention to him.
In front of the hall, after waiting for half a quarter of an hour, Li Yi was carried in by two eunuchs with a chair.
The emperor had a smile on his face, looking in a good mood.
Since he was established as a prince when he was young, he was less than twenty when he became the throne, and now he is in his prime, in his mid-thirties, and it is time to show off his talents, how could he be willing to hand over the power back.
He thinks he will do better than his father! "The grassroots see the emperor." Li Yi saluted the emperor.
"no."
"Have you read military books?" The emperor stepped down from his seat.
"I've looked through it roughly in the past two days, and it's extremely profound, and I don't understand it very well." Li Yi replied.
"Where did you stay in Qin Kingdom?"
"After leaving Qizhou, I wandered around without a fixed residence. After I got married, I settled down in Yu County." Facing the emperor of Chu's investigation, Li Yi's tone was calm.
Regarding his experience in Qin Kingdom, he had a discussion with Yun Niang.
It is still as simple as possible, and the fewer people involved, the better.
It is shaped as an idle person who travels around.
Jian'an is far away from Qin State, and he is an insignificant person, so there should be few people who would be free to go to Qin State to find out whether his identity is true or not.
Even if you have the intention to investigate, it will take at least two months to go back and forth.
Two months is enough for him to do a lot of things.
At that time, if someone questioned him, he would at best watch the situation and then fabricate lies.
"Didn't you write poetry in Qin?"
"Qin Kingdom..." Li Yi sighed, "The confident king ascends the throne, and there are a few scholars who dare to show off, and they all hide it."
The emperor sat back on the chair again. The current emperor of the Qin Kingdom respected martial arts and disliked literature. Some time ago, there was a burning of books and peddling Confucianism, so that the scholars there concealed their talents one by one and picked up bows and arrows.
Si Jian understood the basic situation, and he could tell the place names, judging by his winks, it didn't look like he was talking nonsense.
Although it is not an important position to study books in the Imperial Academy, the emperor does not want to arrange for people with unknown origins.
Sipping his tea, the emperor stared at Li Yi. He needed to put up a sign to show that he accepted talented people from all over the world.
This can play a very important role after Chu State invades other countries.
Si Jian was in a coma for half a year, and he only woke up after being rescued by Xun Xiu. It could not be anyone's plan, and with no family ties, simple background, and inconvenient legs, he is really a suitable candidate.
"Talk briefly about the core points of the general."
The emperor spoke with some majesty.
Let the eunuch do not need to write, as long as Si Jian's answers are not outrageous, he will pass the test.
"Shang Yi, Nursing Men, Anticipating the Enemy, Assessing the Situation, Surprising, and Guarding."
The emperor nodded, and didn't ask Li Yi to discuss further.
Leaving Li Yi there, he went to read the memorial.
When it was almost time, he waved someone to send Li Yi out.
Father Sheng was waiting outside the hall. Seeing Li Yi come out, he stuffed a bank note into the hand of the eunuch next to the emperor, "Thank you, father-in-law."
"Sheng Shilang is just being polite, but our family didn't do anything. Mr. Si needs to take good care of his health, and the Imperial Academy will be a little tired." The eunuch smiled and turned back to serve him in the room.
Father Sheng and Li Yi exchanged glances and didn't talk much. Under the urging of the little eunuch, Li Yi left the palace.
In the carriage, Father Sheng fell into deep thought after listening to Li Yi finish talking about the situation inside.
What the emperor meant was clearly to let Jian'er pass.
Is Ron really so powerful?
Jian'er is only good at writing poems, but other aspects have not been checked. The emperor let him enter the Hanlin Academy. Is there any other intention in this?
But what can they plot?Father Sheng frowned slightly.
"Father-in-law, what's wrong?"
"Jian'er, in the Hanlin Academy, you need to be careful in your words and deeds, and you don't have to interact with others." Father Sheng looked at him with a warning in his a son-in-law, Sheng's father was extremely satisfied with Li Yi and did not want him to fall into the plot.
Li Yi nodded with a calm demeanor.
This is also what Father Sheng is most satisfied with.
Arrogant people can't do anything in that respect.
And xinxing is the most rare thing for a person.
The wheels kept turning, and the carriage drove towards Sheng's mansion smoothly.
...
...
"My lord, the night is getting dark."
On the hill opposite Jinghe Nunnery, the attendant whispered.
Liao Ji raised his eyes and looked away from the backyard of Jinghe Nunnery.
After a moment of silence, Liao Ji moved the corner of his mouth, "Let's go."
Tomorrow he will marry King Xi's second daughter. This is what his father wanted, and it is also the choice he should make.
The relationship with the Tang family was already bad. After the marriage contract was broken, Liao Ji tried to win over him. He really liked Tang Xin in his heart.
However, Lang has no intention of concubine love.
Since it is impossible, Liao Ji will not waste it.
Although the queen's performance was not obvious, she was hostile to Duke Zhan's mansion.
Facing the queen and the Tang family, Duke Zhan's mansion must also need allies.
King Xi has been dragged into the water by Wei Tongxu, no matter how difficult it is to be alone, he has no other choice but to tie up with Duke Zhan's mansion.
Looking back at Jinghe An for the last time, Liao Ji rode away.
Love is insignificant in front of the big picture.
"Miss, I'm leaving."
The Tang family's guard whispered inwardly.
Tang Xin flipped through the Buddhist scriptures, her expression didn't fluctuate in the slightest.
She had wondered before why no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't fall in love with Liao Ji.
After the Min County incident broke out, she had an answer.
A person who is cold-blooded and has no warmth, only has schemes in his eyes, and hides himself from the beginning to the end, makes people shiver by relying on it, not to mention love.
Liao Ji doesn't deserve to be loved either.
After lighting the oil lamp, Tang Xin continued to read the Buddhist scriptures to gain peace from them.
She always dreamed of Li Yi falling down the mountain stream.
But every time she reached out, she couldn't catch him.
Not long after breaking off the engagement with Liao Ji, Tang Xin entered Jinghe Nunnery.
It is said that resentful souls cannot enter reincarnation.
Li Yi, you saved me several times, and I will serve the Buddhist hall all my life and pay you back.
……
"Grandfather, do you still remember Yun'er?"
The Wen family, Wen Heng half squatted in front of the couch, an old man with gray hair and cloudy eyes was sitting on the couch.
"It's been a while since she returned to Jian'an. She was a pretty girl back then, but now she has a woman's hair in a bun."
"But I've seen it a long time ago."
"She once gave up everything for me, washed her hands and made soup. In that small mountain forest, for me, it is the most precious memory. It was a time like a dream."
"If I hadn't come back, my son and daughter would have been around my knees." Wen Heng said, hoarse, raised his head, and closed his red eye sockets.
"Grandfather, her husband treats her far better than me, I am incompetent, I am incompetent..."
Wen Heng let out a weeping sound uncontrollably, and the old man on the couch was still sitting blankly, neither sad nor happy.
His spirit had long since collapsed, and now all he was breathing was his body.
