It's just that Wang De didn't notice that Li Shimin heaved a sigh of relief after the words fell. You must know that as an emperor, he naturally doesn't like someone drying out his harem.

Even if this person is his own father, after all, this is likely to be the beginning of foreign relatives intervening in politics.

Fortunately, Guanyin's maidservant is not that stupid, and violated my taboo, otherwise I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with.

"What was written?"

However, Li Shimin quickly shifted his attention to this word, wanting to know that after this Asian father returned to Chang'an, every word caused a sensation.

Even Li Shimin couldn't help but feel anxious, fearing that there might be something wrong with this line.

"Your Majesty, the servant dare not speak."

Wang De lowered his head and said respectfully, with a hint of panic and helplessness in his words.

Li Shimin's heart sank, it seemed that this sentence was not a good one, but as an emperor, he still had some composure.

"What do you say, I forgive you for your innocence."

Li Shimin's words sounded slowly, this time the words were not as flat as before.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After Wang De said respectfully, he said what Duke Anxuan had written, and at the same time he told what the Queen had framed. In fact, he was not afraid of His Majesty, but the other concubines in the harem.

"Six Palace Fen Dai has no color."

Li Shimin's eyes flickered and he murmured softly, then waved his hand to signal Wang De to step back.

Without any hesitation, Wang De directly exited the imperial study room. He knew that the master had some headaches.

In fact, Li Shimin does have some headaches now. Although he knows that nothing good will happen, he is afraid that the harem will not be chaotic.

"Guanyin servant girl, you are going to embarrass me again."

That night, the emperor did not go to any concubine's place in the harem, but spent the night in the imperial study, but the murmuring voice in the middle of the night made people know that the emperor was not at peace.

On the second day, the harem seemed to be the same as before, but a picture in the queen's palace was quickly spread out. Of course, Shu An did not sign it.

Although the handwriting was written by him, Shu An would not admit it. After the handwriting was spread, the harem fell into a strange calm.

Later, several palace maids were executed for various reasons, and this eldest grandson queen seemed to show her own means.

As for Li Shimin's words, they were silent, but silent words are not a kind of support.

.......

Shu An didn't pay attention to the affairs in the palace, and didn't know until Li Junxian came to him.

There was no difference in his expression. In this era, human life is actually the most worthless existence, and this daughter has also begun to walk on the road of motherhood.

Naturally, this commander of Baiqi would go to the Three Treasure Hall for nothing, and he must have come here with Li Shimin's approval. As for talking to him about these palace affairs, it must have been Li Shimin's idea.

"Duke Anxuan, Your Majesty would like to request a copy of the script."

Li Junxian respectfully said that he respects this Duke Anxuan very much, and he needs to look up to every achievement.

In addition, this Duke Anxuan has not had any stains from the beginning of his fame to the present, so it can be said that he is a most holy person.

Shu An's complexion didn't change at all, but he guessed in his heart, probably because Li Shimin was dissatisfied.

Speaking of which, I did have the suspicion of disturbing the palace, but the sentence that the six palaces have no color has caused Li Shimin a lot of trouble.

"Perhaps it can."

But soon Shu An came up with an idea, since he wanted a picture, let Li Shimin worry about the poor family and the powerful.

In fact, Li Shimin is the only one who has a headache about the harem, and it has no impact on the entire Tang Dynasty.

And when the queen's authority can be questioned in the harem, even Wei Zheng will not be entangled in this issue.

Speaking of it, Li Shimin was too busy to be entangled in the harem, but he didn't mind finding something for Li Shimin to do.

"General Li, please wait a moment!"

When Shu An's voice sounded, Li Junxian naturally wouldn't be embarrassed about this matter.

"Mr. Anxuan, please do as you please, Junxian can just wait here."

After waiting for a while, Shu An walked out of the study and handed the bamboo slips in his hand to Li Junxian.

Li Junxian did not stay in the Shu Mansion much, as the emperor's personal guard, if he stayed in the Shu Mansion more, it would be nothing but gossip.

"Master, there is a student who has answered nine questions correctly, and is now preparing to challenge the tenth question."

After Laifu sent Li Junxian out, he came to Shu An's side and spoke out, with a hint of surprise in his words.

"So fast?!"

Shu An was stunned and said with a trace of doubt, didn't he only pass a few questions a few days ago.

Could it be that in just a few days, his IQ has skyrocketed, or his creativity has surged, and he answered his question correctly.

"Master, half of the first nine questions are arithmetic questions, and this person just happens to be proficient."

"Besides, I selected some previous questions, so I must have thought about the answers."

"This student is still very shrewd. He waited for everyone else to draw the questions before trying again."

Laifu told what he knew, if someone had covered up the topic at the beginning.

Then after waiting for despair, the topic was directly disclosed, and each topic was studied by many scholars in Chang'an for a long time.

So if you think about it, there are a lot of tricks in it. Maybe you have seen this question before and thought about the answer.

"Interesting, please go and pay attention to Laifu. If you pass it, I will send you some tea from Fuchu and ask him to visit tomorrow morning."

Shu An said with a hint of curiosity on his face, in fact, he didn't mind playing tricks, after all, this is not a skill.

"Yes, sir!"

.......

Chapter 41 Lucky, there is no poor family

In front of the Shu Mansion, a young man with a serious face and eyes, as if praying to God, took out a question from the last box numbered ten.

In fact, this time the boy had good luck. For the nine questions along the way, either he had drawn them before, or he had drawn something he was good at.

You must know that he only answered six questions correctly before, and got stuck on the seventh question, which has been stuck for several days.

Even if the selected questions were made public, no one had an answer. In particular, a pair of couplets about Zen was drawn out, which made everyone shake their heads.

"Mr. Anxuan is really knowledgeable."

After the initial shaking of their heads, many students couldn't help sighing, if they talk about the sect, it's fine, at least there are many Taoist scriptures in the Taoist sect that have been passed down for a long time.

After all, Taoism has a long history. As for Zen, except for those monks who study Buddhist scriptures, others just read it.

Have you ever had any descendants of aristocratic families escape into the Buddhist sect? Although the Zen sect is very powerful, it is only because of the war that it has attracted many refugees.

It also gained many beliefs that yearn for peace and common people, so it showed a powerful side. In terms of inheritance, the origin of the current five surnames and Qiwang family does not have to be much different from Zen.

"I don't know if this student can pass."

In fact, many literati had already gathered around, and they were also amazed to see that young man walking to the last topic.

But more is looking forward to someone who can pass the Shumen Ten Questions, at least someone who can pass is a hope.

You must know that the announcement of the previous topics did not make people relaxed, but rather dignified.

Especially for those couplet questions, there is no fixed answer. Even if the answer is correct this time, the questions will still be put back in the box, but the answer will be invalid after being used.

It can be said that the longer the time, the more difficult the difficulty of the topic. It is already very difficult to think of a couplet, let alone a second one.

The young man opened his eyes and saw the question, his face couldn't help showing a gleam of joy, because he knew how to do this question.

And many people who paid attention to the boy's expression, saw the ecstatic expression and found the answer in their hearts.

"The answer to this question is that etiquette must be learned, etiquette teaches people to be humble to themselves and respect others..."

The young man looked at the topic and talked eloquently, while there was already a guard who listened carefully. You must know that this guard was taught by Shu An himself.

Everyone's knowledge is not weaker than the scribes present, not to mention the answer that Shu An has already prepared, as long as the meaning is correct, then the answer is considered correct.

Before he knew it, Laifu had already arrived at the guard's side, and he showed some appreciation for the young man on his face.

"Did you get the answer right?"

After the boy finished answering, his eyes fell on the guard beside him and he said, with a trace of anxiety in his words.

Although I am sure, but in the end, I still have to use the answer given by An Xuangong as a reference. If it is wrong, then all his previous efforts will be wasted.

"Congratulations, you have passed Shumen's ten questions."

A smile appeared on the guard's face and he said that he had watched this young man for a long time and knew that he was a student who studied hard.

As the guard's voice fell, a violent commotion erupted at the scene.

"Finally someone passed the Shumen Ten Questions."

"Who is this person? Today he wants to make a name for Chang'an."

"I thought how long it would take to pass, but this is how long it takes."

.......

There were voices of discussion after another, and at this time the young man was also crying with joy, because all the pressure he had been carrying during this period of time turned into joy.

........

The matter in front of the Shu Mansion has not yet fermented, and at this time Li Junxian has already returned to the palace with the words of begging.

There was a trace of anticipation in Li Shimin's eyes, wanting to know what this cheap father-in-law wrote, commented on me, or other content.

These are all worthy of Li Shimin's expectation, so when Li Junxian appeared, he couldn't wait.

It's just that Li Shimin's expression changed slightly when he opened the rice paper and saw the contents on it.

The next Li Junxian looked curious, and he also wanted to know what Duke An Xuan wrote.

But it seems that there seems to be something wrong with His Majesty's complexion, which makes Li Junxian even more curious about what is written on it.

"Has anyone seen this adverb?!"

After a long time without knowing it, Li Shimin said with a serious expression on his face.

"Your Majesty, no one has seen it except Duke An Xuan."

Although Li Junxian was curious why His Majesty asked this question, he still replied respectfully.

"Get back first!"

Li Shimin's eyes flickered and he nodded, his heart fluctuated involuntarily.

This father-in-law had created a problem for himself, but it was nothing, because this was already one of his problems.

It's just that he has been deliberately ignoring it all the time, but it seems that he can't ignore it now.

After waiting for Li Junxian to retreat, only this emperor was left in the entire imperial study room. At this time, Li Shimin's eyes fell on this word again.

"There are no low-ranking families in the upper class, and no noble families in the lower class."

The ten short words were severely hammered on Li Shimin a few times, and every time he read it again, his heart felt heavy.

Li Shimin didn't quite agree with this sentence in his heart. You must know that in the first year of Wude, there were not so many supporters of Datang at that time.

So the imperial examination system has been added to poor families, at least it is much better than before the Tang Dynasty, maybe I should talk to this father-in-law.

In fact, he didn't know that the powerful family was dominant, and basically all the ancestors in the court had a lot of background, even the important ministers he relied on.

Some of them are really talented and learned, but some of them are not. It's just that no one can use them, and they can only use these people from powerful families.

Even Li Shimin had thought of this cheap father-in-law, but he was dismissed by the Guanyin servant girl.

Yafu always likes to be idle, so don't bother him too much, and Yafu has already rejected the title and official position, and it must be the same now.

Li Shimin thought it was true, and it would be more embarrassing if he was rejected, after all, there has been a precedent.

Others can punish a person who resists the decree, but this Yafu is the world-renowned Duke Anxuan, and he is also his elder.

No matter from any point of view, it is not easy to punish the crime. In the end, it is not himself who makes the embarrassment, so Li Shimin naturally dismissed this idea.

That night Li Shimin suffered from insomnia again, but this time he was not upset about the matter in the harem, but worried about the future of Datang.

Although he did not admit this sentence, there was a danger signal in his heart. In particular, many ministers who came from aristocratic families began to question the imperial examination system.
