"Seventh Brother, Seventh Brother..." Xiao Yan called out.

Seeing his surprise, Xiao Rui asked, "What makes you smile so happily? Tell me and let me hear."

Xiao Yan said: "Seventh brother came to the door in person, isn't it worth being happy? Seventh brother, why are you looking for me? Who are you trying to mess with this time? Do you want to call Shangtian Boguang and Zhang Lianchuan?"

Xiao Rui glanced at him, and said depressedly: "It's a harm for me to come to you? So I'm such an elder brother in your mind, I'd better go."

"Don't stop, my brother said the wrong thing." Xiao Yan hurriedly stopped him, and asked: "Seventh brother looking for me must be a big deal, I'm not in a hurry to help."

Xiao Rui nodded, and said: "That's about the same. I really have something to ask for you. Every year, the capital is extremely lively. In addition, next February will be the Spring Examination. A large number of candidates have gathered in the capital, and there are many talents. Candidates They like to be arty, and they are not willing to be lonely to study and practice calligraphy in the inn. You are familiar with the situation in the capital, so I want to ask you, has anyone organized a party recently to invite these candidates?"

Xiao Yan was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "Brother Seven, do you also want to win over scholars?"

Xiao Rui shook his head and said: "No, I just want to see the future pillars of the country and feel their youthful and vigorous spirit. As princes, we have the obligation and responsibility to care about the candidates' situation."

"I believe you are a ghost." Xiao Yan murmured in his heart, but his expression was admiring, and he praised: "My seventh brother is still of a high level, and my brother's admiration for you is like a torrent of rivers."

Xiao Rui glared at him. Based on his understanding of this kid, this is definitely an irony: "Okay, put away your fighting spirit."

"I'm not being funny, I'm being upright!" Xiao Yan said angrily, now he hates fighting spirit to death.

Xiao Rui patted him on the shoulder and said, "Just get used to it, and you just let me stand here and talk all the time?"

Xiao Yan hurriedly invited him into the living room, and the two sat down and chatted.

"Brother Seven, you came to me to ask the right person. Now there are many kinds of activities in the capital, including spontaneous small poetry gatherings, and policy discussion meetings dedicated to discussing the content of the imperial examination. Of course, there is no shortage of large-scale activities. Second brother, he will entertain candidates from the capital city at Huayan Pond. Candidates will then be able to enter the venue for free with their identity certificates. This time the second brother’s uncle won the role of the chief examiner. The event he prepared must have attracted the entire capital. The eyes of all candidates. Immediately after the day after tomorrow, my starling, your eighth brother, King Jing was preparing a poetry meeting in Qushangchi, and also invited the popular candidate for this meeting. He is the imperial examination escort, so this poem The meeting also attracted many candidates." Xiao Rui introduced.

Xiao Rui nodded. He had already guessed that the two would have an event, but he didn't expect it to be ready so soon.To attract candidates is to attract scholars. In today's era, scholars represent public opinion. Gaining their support, one's own prestige and prestige will rise in a straight line.

Moreover, behind these scholars are more aristocratic families and aristocratic families, and they will naturally get the support of aristocratic families and aristocratic families. That's why Xiao Yiheng and Xiao Jing will spare no effort to compete for the chief examiner and escort of the imperial examination.

In comparison, Xiao Rui left Beijing to serve as the supervisory censor and plead for the people, which is a bad idea.

But, no matter whether it is wooing students to accumulate prestige, or pleading for orders to accumulate sages, they are all for His Majesty to see, because His Majesty is the one who decides the choice of the crown prince, not scholars or civil and military officials.

So which one His Majesty values ​​is the key.

Seeing Xiao Rui thinking, Xiao Yan scratched his heart like a cat, and quickly asked, "Seventh brother, what conspiracy do you have, don't leave me alone, let's hear it."

Xiao Rui looked at Xiao Jing, and said with a mysterious smile: "Buddha said, don't say it. But, I want to go to the banquet held by the second brother tomorrow, will you go?"

"Go! Of course I want to go!" Xiao Yan shouted, "You must go on the saddle."

"Okay, let's make an appointment like this." Xiao Rui got up and said, "I'll walk slowly, so don't send it off either."

Xiao Yan was bored, so he followed immediately: "Seventh brother, let me walk with you, it's too boring in the mansion, reading official documents all day is driving me crazy."

Xiao Rui asked: "You are on duty in Dali Temple, are you still bored? There are all big and important cases there! Isn't it to your liking?"

"It's all Yue Chong's fault. Relying on his status as Minister of Dali Temple, he doesn't let go of power. For a talented prince like me, it's more deterrent to preside over the trial in person." Xiao Yan was filled with righteous indignation.

Xiao Rui said happily: "I can understand Mr. Yue. If you really delegate power, I think your first step will be to replace the plaque hanging above the mirror in the courtroom!"

"Ah! How do you know?" Xiao Yan seemed to have been told what was on his mind, and his expression was a little shocked.

Xiao Rui said again: "Who told you to lose your vindictiveness, but well, I can guess that you changed the plaque, but I can't guess what it will be replaced with. Let's hear it."

Xiao Yan beamed brightly, and said: "Look, the hanging of the bright mirror represents fairness and integrity in judging cases, strict law enforcement, impartiality and selflessness in handling affairs, and no place for crimes to hide, but this has no deterrent effect. How can it restrain the vicious criminals? Why don't we put on How about the four words "Yincaodifu"? Does it sound like a sinister horror? Then display the ten halls of hell on both sides of the court, which is as strict as prison, terrifying and exciting. In addition, prepare Dogs, tigers, and dragons have three guillotines, beheading traitors at the bottom, corrupt officials at the middle, and the relatives of the emperor and relatives at the top, wow, I don’t think the crimes are too small to be honest!”

Xiao Rui clapped his hands and asked, "Then if you are asked to decorate our father's golden palace, what design plan do you have?"

"I haven't thought about this, but since it is the golden palace of the father, it naturally needs to be taller. It is better to change the Hall of Supreme Harmony to the Lingxiao Palace, and the palace of the father to be changed into the Taiwei Yuqing Palace. Zijin Pagoda, Taiwei Yuqing Palace. Infinity is the supreme sage, and the outline is shining brightly. The silence is vast and there is no sect, and the mysterious fan is always ten directions..." Xiao Yan's eyes were blurred, as if he was lost in reverie.

Xiao Rui clutched his forehead, no wonder Yue Chong didn't dare to let go of power, if his father heard this, his father would say: Come on, forbid King Tang to approach my bedroom, and protect the plaque in the bedroom.

"Ninth brother, have you considered writing a novel?" Xiao Rui couldn't help asking.

Xiao Yan came back to his senses and asked, "What novel?"

"Write a novel with the fairy world as the background, and you will be the No. 1 and even the originator of the Great Xia Kingdom's immortal chivalrous uncle." Xiao Rui joked.

Xiao Yan took a closer look, and agreed: "Yes, my thoughts are so vast, since I am not allowed to change the plaque, then I will write it out, maybe I will gain countless readers. I will write now!"

After finishing speaking, Xiao Yan stopped following Xiao Rui and rushed into his study.

Xiao Rui is very pleased, he can guide a lost bear child to the right track, he is considered to be immeasurably meritorious, but he just hopes that his writing will not be too outrageous, if he violates too many etiquette and morality, he will definitely be impeached by the censor.

"Let him make trouble." After thinking about it, Xiao Rui decided to pretend not to know.

And Xiao Yan went back to the study room, prepared the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, the mysterious fantasy in his heart was stimulated by Xiao Rui's suggestion, and he suddenly felt that his thoughts were flowing like a spring.

"It is said that there is a famous mountain outside Dongsheng Shenzhou, called the Valley of Unrequited Love. In the valley, there is a strange stone with nine orifices and eight holes. According to the Jiugong Bagua, every time it is innocently beautiful, the sun is fine and the moon is shining. After feeling it for a long time, there is a psychic feeling. At the intersection of yin and yang, he turned into a boy named Xiao Qirui..."

"Speaking of which, Xiao Qirui left the Valley of Unrequited Love and came to a place called Daughter Country..."

Xiao Yan couldn't help admiring his talent and literary talent, and he wrote more energetically.

And when Xiao Rui learned that his alias became the protagonist of Xiao Yan's novel, would he feel trapped?

Chapter 198: Do you want to be a Jinshi?

The next morning, when Xiao Rui saw Xiao Yan, he was shocked by his decadent appearance.

"Ninth brother, did you go to eavesdrop on the corner? Why is it so miserable? Look at your dark circles, the upper eyelids are fighting with the lower eyelids, and the yawning is still roaring and cheering. How did you look like this?" Xiao Rui asked.

Although Xiao Yan was sleepy to death, he was in high spirits and said excitedly: "Seventh brother, after you left yesterday, I kept writing novels until the end of Zishi. Didn't I just get up and go to the morning court after a short nap. Look I can't lift my hand anymore."

As he spoke, he raised his right hand, drooping like a snake with its bones removed, and his fingers were still trembling.

"You have been writing for so long?" Xiao Rui asked in surprise.

Xiao Yan said: "Seventh brother, you are my guiding light. Now my writing and thinking are flowing like a spring, my talent is like a blowout, I export splendid classics, and write brilliant essays! It turns out that besides being good at poetry, words, songs, Fu, trial, Martial arts, appreciating, riding, archery, handsome... Besides, he is also good at writing novels!"

"Then you don't have to write it yourself, you can dictate it, let someone write it for you, if you really can't do it, you can find a scholar to write it." Xiao Rui reminded.

Xiao Yan was dumbfounded for a moment, and said dumbfounded: "Fuck, why didn't I think of this! I actually wrote it for five or six hours in a stupid way! My god!"

Xiao Rui patted him on the shoulder and sighed: "It's okay, people are born stupid, I don't blame you. Besides, you just made a mistake and shouldn't put my expertise on yourself. I forgive you this time." .Since you have found the direction, write well, Brother Qi has always supported you."

Of all the occupations in the world, except for writing novels, which position is the most unpromising?

writing a novel!

I hope that after Xiao Yan enters the pit in the future, he won't complain that he led him on this road of no return.

calm!I can't laugh myself.

"Then don't accompany me to Huayan Pool today, and have a good rest." Xiao Rui said with concern.
