Chapter 634 Di Renjie who was scrambled (two in one)
No one would have thought that this year's new top scorer would be such a young child. Although it was unexpected, those who knew Di Renjie knew it, which was reasonable.
Emperor Li Er had met Di Renjie not once or twice, and knew that the child was smart, so he specifically told Du Shaoqing to help the country train him and pay great attention.
He thought that Di Renjie would become a pillar of the country when he grew up, but he did not expect that he would have made his mark at a young age without having to wait until the other party became an adult. The imperial examinations destroyed the talented men of the same generation and even the previous generation. This child was destined to become a legend in the history of the imperial examinations.
"Die Renjie, the new top student in the exam, I have read your strategy for the exam, and I have also heard about your debate in the top student building more than a month ago. I have to say that your talent and talent are extremely incompatible with your body." Li Er commented.
Everyone listened to the emperor's words seriously, and Du Shaoqing couldn't help but cover his mouth and laughed. Those who didn't know what he said thought it was a derogatory meaning.
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never believe that this talent would have come from a young child. Historical records show that Qin Ganluo was the prime minister at the age of twelve. When he was young, he felt absurd to read history. Now that I see you, I think anything is possible."
He didn't think so alone, I'm afraid everyone thinks so.
Du Shaoqing reminded: "Your Majesty, aren't you afraid that you are proud of him if you praise him like this?
And today there are many talented people. If you only praise one, other children may not be convinced."
Li Er said to Du Shaoqing with a smile and scolded: "You master, don't want to behave yourself when you get a cheaper one. Do you think everyone can't see it?
What you said is clearly showing off that your apprentice is the first.
Do I want to ask these children for helping you? Are there any one who is dissatisfied with Di Renjie as the top scorer?
You can stand up, and we can give you the opportunity to compete again in the hall. I and all civil and military officials are your judges."
As soon as Li Er said this, everyone smiled and looked at the prince-in-law Du Shaoqing. Du Shaoqing was fine, and he was shameless and went against the rules. Following the emperor's words, he asked a group of candidates: "Yes, are you unwilling to accept it? If anyone can stand up and beat Di Renjie in front of everyone, we will give in to the title of top scholar, without any hesitation.
It would be less likely that people would say that my little apprentice became the top scholar this time, which was the master's advantage because I was the questioner.
Now I will give you another chance to avenge your previous shame, otherwise it would be too embarrassing to lose to a ten-year-old child."
The examinees looked at each other, and their eyes showed helplessness and bitter smiles.
Cui Hao, the second place, is Di Renjie's junior brother, and is not suitable to stand up for his senior brother, so Wang Xuance, the third place, took the initiative to stand up.
"Report to your Majesty, there is also the Prince Consort, the students have no objection. We have seen the talent of Huaiying in the Top Principal Building. I dare not beat others. I am ashamed of the students, and I am willing to give up the disadvantage. Huaiying is far from it!"
"Students agree, I'm willing to accept the disadvantages!"
...
One by one, they all stood up and admitted defeat. Di Renjie proudly spread his hands and said, "Your Majesty, and all colleagues, you all have seen it. It's not that we are arrogant and bragging, but that this generation of children are too polite.
What a pity. If I had met such a humble group of classmates during the scientific exam, I would have won the top scorer in the big and small exams back then.”
Everyone looked at Du Shaoqing's look of showing off and pretending to be regretful after showing off. It was really hateful. Everyone wanted to go up and beat this guy up. It's too arrogant.
Old man Wei Zheng directly scolded: "Bah! The boy is so shameless, he praises himself in turn by his reputation as his disciple.
Not to mention that even if you were asked to take the scientific exam now, I’m afraid you won’t be the top scorer. If you don’t believe me, I will give you a test question?"
Ahem, what is this for? Old Man Wei, we have a good personal relationship. Is it appropriate to disrupt this?
After a lot of noise, the atmosphere in the court became much more lively. The candidates who went to the hall for the first time also felt more relaxed and were no longer nervous and dared not look up.
Li Er waved his hand and told everyone not to discuss, "According to the convention, after the list is issued, we must arrange for their duties as soon as possible.
It’s easy for others to say that I, Datang, now have a lot of vacancies and urgently need talent supplementation.
But Di Renjie is not easy to settle. After all, he is only ten years old, so everyone will discuss it."
The Minister of Revenue stood up and said, "Your Majesty, our Ministry of Revenue is short of people. Di Renjie, a child, is quick-witted and counted the true teachings of the son-in-law. Let him come to our Ministry of Revenue. In the future, he will definitely be a pillar of the country."
"Your Majesty, such a pillar of talent, is too insignificant to settle accounts all day long. I will ask him to come to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to study governance. In the future, whether it is to exile the governance of the party or provide advice for the court, it will definitely be a pillar." The Minister of Civil Affairs rushed to say.
"Your Majesty, I know a little about Di Renjie. I have the talent for Xing Zhuo's case-based judgment. It is most suitable for me to come to my Ministry of Justice..."
"My Ministry of Works..."
"My Ministry of Rites..."
...
OK, when it comes to the assignment of vocational responsibilities, these ministers actually started to rush to ask for people? This is too exaggerated.
Unexpectedly, Di Renjie was so popular? Is it because he has the ability or because of his teacher? Not only a group of candidates were shocked, but even Du Shaoqing did not expect it.
Except for Emperor Li Er, everyone was surprised to see the frown of the Shangshu's palace fighting in surprise, and the Tai Chi Hall was about to become a vegetable market.
Li Er coughed lightly and pressed the ministers, and asked Li Chengqian: "Where is the prince who thinks Di Renjie is suitable for?"
Li Chengqian thought for a while and replied: "Father, my son-in-law thinks that Huaiying is still young and is not suitable to be transferred to the local area for work. After all, he is still a child. In life, he may not take good care of himself."
"Well, that's true." Li Er agreed.
Li Chengqian continued: "Father, son ministers have a lot of contact with Huaiying. This child is like his brother-in-law. He is a versatile talent. The East Palace still lacks a prince to accompany him. Why don't you let him follow me?"
Puff... The ministers of various departments vomited blood, scolding the prince for being shameless and asking you to make suggestions impartially, but you are actually competing with us for someone?
Li Er laughed and said, "I didn't expect this kid to be so popular, so I'm in trouble."
Then he glanced at the hall and his eyes were on Wei Zheng, "Xuancheng, everyone is snatching people, why are you not talking? How about you bring Di Renjie to the Censorate?"
Wei Zheng did not comment and replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, it's not that the old minister doesn't love talents, but knows that the right one is the best. Why not listen to Di Renjie's own meaning, or let Mr. Du, who knows him best, give him some advice?"
Du Shaoqing replied: "I have no objection. My disciple is better than me. I only know how to cure diseases and save people. He knows everything, plans to do business, martial arts, military strategy, case-based reasoning, classical articles, etc....
Even if I cook, I am a good at cooking. I cooked for my teacher Shinan Gong for two months, and the teacher gained a lot of weight.
To be honest, I don’t want to be laughed at by everyone, it seems that he can’t do anything except having a baby.
The problem is that he is too young, ten years old, an age that makes people miss it so much that they want to go back but can't...
Tsk, as his teacher, I admit I'm a little jealous."
Puff... Everyone vomited blood together. Shamelessness is too shameless. Can you still have some shame? Why don't you praise your apprentice to heaven?
Wei Zheng couldn't help but mock him: "Mr. I used to admire your talent, but today I have to praise you as thick as the face of the city wall. I have never seen a shameless person like you in my life, and you won."
"Wei Xiang, you are jealous. If you weren't lucky, Huaiying would help you find Wang Xuance, a good disciple in Luoyang. Every time you come to my house to see Huaiying, your eyes are terrible. Do you think I didn't see it?
Just like the weasel saw the chick…” Du Shaoqing started to fight.
You... Wei Zheng was so angry that he was not angry to death.
All the officials in the hall looked at the old and the young, and they were like live treasures, which felt like a scene of famous crosstalk in later generations.
In the end, Li Er stopped this farce and did not ask Di Renjie for his opinion. He directly issued an order: "Di Renjie appointed the prince to wash his horse and follow the prince to listen to it.
It just so happens that the prince now takes turns to serve in each department, so you can also follow the experience in the various departments of the court, and make arrangements when you become an adult in the future."
The prince was given such a high position as soon as he came up, which shows the emperor's favor. It also clearly stated that all departments of the court can go to the training, which shows his expectations for Di Renjie's future, which is what he wants to cultivate as the position of the prime minister's successor.
In addition, he has been following the prince since he was a child, and that is the next emperor's hardcore confidant, Di Renjie will be incredible in the future.
Countless ministers have seen Di Renjie's future success, and many people's eyes have turned. Should we start to get along earlier?
So after the world's court, the threshold of the Du family was almost broken, and they were all talking about marriage for Di Renjie, and some even brought their daughters or granddaughters to the door.
But Du Shaoqing was worried. In the past, countless people came to him to ask for calligraphy and paintings. After finally calming down the situation for less than a year, the Du family was surrounded again, and going out was a problem.
In the Lizheng Hall of the Harem, Xiao Xuanxuan came to visit the queen and met Xiao Yizi whom she hadn't seen for a long time.
When the two little guys met, they had endless whispers. Little Shizi listened to Xiao Xuanxuan telling the interesting story of taking the imperial examination. Her big eyes were full of envy. It was so interesting. Why didn't you call me such a fun and exciting thing?
"If I also took the exam, maybe the top scorer this year will be mine." Xiao Yizi muttered.
Xiao Xuanxuan was covered in black lines and patted Xiao XI's head and reminded her "kindness": "Sister Yizi, I've just ranked fifth in the exam. Can you win the top scorer if you participate?"
"Ah? No, no, I didn't say the top scorer. If Sister Xuanxuan is fifth, I'll be sixth." Xiao Yizi quickly changed her words.
Xiao Xuanxuan instead stroked Yizi's hair and said with a smile: "Yeah, this is my good sister.
Don’t think about the top scorer this year. The guy from Senior Brother is really amazing. I don’t know how he has a brain. I’m slightly inferior to him in everything I do, and I’m so angry.
So we can't beat him this year's No. 1 pick.
If we want to win the No. 1 pick, we have to wait for next year as soon as possible."
"Then next year, we will take the exam together next year. We will each have the top scorer." Xiao Yizi said cutely.
...Xiao Xuanxuan was almost defeated by this little sister. She didn't even know what the top scorer was, so she clamored to take the exam?
"What are you taking the exam? What are the exams for two girls?
This year, it is not enough for Xuanxuan girl to go alone to cause trouble. Do you want to go there again next year?
Is the scientific experiment your amusement park?" Queen Changsun happened to hear it and scolded with a stern face.
Little Shizi was so scared that her neck shrank, and she immediately wanted to admit her mistake.
Xiao Xuanxuan was more courageous, and she smiled and ran over to hug the queen and said coquettishly: "Grandma, why are they causing trouble? She took the exam seriously, and her grandfather praised me.
Look at me, how many people envy me.”
The queen drowningly tapped Xuanxuan's forehead with her fingers and said, "You are really ignorant. The imperial examination is a state affairs and girls are not allowed to get involved. Moreover, if you are on the list, one candidate will be squeezed down, and the court will lose one available talent. Why isn't it a delay?
You are not allowed to mess around like this in the future. Your grandfather spoils you and always praises you for being sensible. You can't cause trouble for him."
"Oh, I know grandma, I didn't expect this. Otherwise, let's ask grandpa to get one more this year?" Xiao Xuanxuan listened to the advice.
The queen smiled, "Forget it, the situation is complete, and the number of recruits has been expanded this year and has recruited a lot of people.
Okay, I have already arranged the harem, prepare it, and we will set off for your house in a while."
"Aren't we waiting for our grandfather to go to court?" Xiao Xuanxuan asked.
"No, your grandfather said he would start taking a vacation tomorrow, so he still has to be busy today, but we don't have to wait for him."
Two little guys happily followed the queen out of the palace, especially Little Shizi. A little princess hasn't gone out of the palace for a long time. Every time she comes out, she asks this and that like an elf, and it's very fresh to everything.
The big cat walked leisurely with two little girls walking along the garden and attracted frequent attention from passers-by along the way.
Little Shizi asked in a low voice: "Sister Xuanxuan, my mother won't let you go. Will we still take the imperial examination next year?"
Ah? Do you still remember this?
Xiao Xuanxuan patted her forehead and said perfunctorily: "Of course, let's secretly change into boys' clothes to participate. This is what I did this year, and I will arrange it for you next year."
"Yeah, okay, I'll go secretly and don't let my mother know." Little Shizi always had a blind confidence in this elder sister Xuanxuan.
Little do I know that Sister Xuanxuan is no longer the Sister Xuanxuan of yesterday. She has decided to abandon evil and turn good into a cleanse, which shows that the arrangements for help in the year are all excuses, and it is not certain whether she can find her next year.
