He planted peonies in the Tang Dynasty

The two agreed to meet in the alley in front of Youyintai Gate, with the East Palace Wall on one side and Yongchang Square on the other.

As soon as Su An got off his chariot, he heard the cry of the cuckoo coming from the hazelnut grove in the East Palace. Cuckoo, cuckoo, facing the north, was extremely mournful, as if looking forward to the return of a child. In the courtyard wall of Yongchangfang next to it, the shadow of the oriole was in the canopy of the tree. Shuttle, their calls are crisp and melodious, full of playing, and they often change their tunes to imitate other birds.

It was curfew time, the long street was empty, Gu Yue got off the carriage, and immediately saw Su An listening to the birdsong in the corner.

Su An turned around, wrapped her shoulders tightly around her robe, and said, "I couldn't sleep, and seeing that your lights were still on, I sent someone to send a message that I wanted to have a secret chat." Gu Yue paused, and hurried forward to squeeze Holding Su An's hand, he tested the temperature.

Every time, when you can't figure out the color in Su An's peach blossom eyes, you can know what he is thinking by squeezing your hands.

"Isn't it the festival dance from cold food to Qingming recently? Why did you come to look for it in the middle of the night? I'm not busy, I'm not busy." Gu Yue repeated twice, his tone was very firm, and he walked with Su An, "Come on, tell me What tune to play."

"The song for the Cold Food Feast is "Longchi Music", and I'm in charge of leading the song." Su An's palms were slightly moist, "Do you still remember that you told me that you would visit me in Linde Hall someday? Play the piano, sing and dance with me."

During the three days of Great Cold Food, Official Cold Food, and Minor Cold Food, the decree clearly prohibits fire, and the cold food feast is mainly cold food. Although it is not as gorgeous as the first day and winter solstice banquets, it can be regarded as one of the three major festivals, with orchestral poetry and complete internal organs.

Gu Yue smiled, and a wave flashed across his eyes: "When did I say such sour words?" Su An said: "You say so many times, especially this sentence. At that time, I went to Xu Mansion to reward you Gui, I'm calling you, don't go." Gu Yue responded, pulling Su An out of the shade of the tree, and under the moonlight, he could clearly see the crystal mist on his eyelashes.

"What are you doing?" Su An lost his barrier, and was a little worried that Gu Yue would find out the secret that he was about to leave the Liyuan, "Even if it's a bitter word, only you and I know it. I just want to ask you. Not serious."

"Asu, I will definitely go, don't worry." Gu Yue said, "Thank you for waiting for me in the palace all these years."

After the farewell, it was almost dawn, and the cuckoos, orioles, larks, and skylarks sang more and more joyously. The birds flew over the smoke from Shengdaofang, the stone gate of Yongxingfang, and fell into the Xu Mansion in the twilight morning light. A piece of Guilin covered with red silk.

Gu Yue returned to Zhongshu Sheng, where there was a lot of snoring, smiled wryly, took out a key from the pocket around his waist, and walked to the archives room alone, blowing off the dust on the copper lock, and carefully opened the door. Old and heavy wooden doors.

Since the first year of Kaiyuan, all the writings written by the Ministry of Officials for 24 years have been displayed in such a pavilion.He smelled the agarwood, and every time he passed a row of bookshelves, he could see the rows of densely carved regular characters.

"Whenever the document is completed, Gousi executes it and writes it at the top, records the year, month, and day, and collects it in various treasuries; for those who implement official documents and seals, the official who supervises the seal will check whether there is any evidence or error in the matter, and then print it. It must be written in the calendar and collected in the treasuries at the end of each month."

Just as Gu Yue stretched out his hand and touched the dossier of the second year of Kaiyuan, there was a burst of soft footsteps outside.

"Master Gu?" Lu Cheng stood under the light of the door, the small scar on his forehead was like a third eye, staring at everything in the world, "These are all about Chen Zhimai's rotten millet, Why did you flip it over all of a sudden?"

"Don't stand there, come help." Gu Yue choked on the dust and coughed badly, "Xu Qing won the first prize in the second year of Kaiyuan, and Jia Quan once exposed him in Luoyang that he got the honor by bribing the secretary supervisor Wu Xin. I want to see."

Wu Xin, the deceased brother of Concubine Hui Wu.

However, not to mention who bribed who and other secret matters, even a few lines of comments from the official who oversees the seal can no longer be seen clearly.At this moment, on the entire old yellow paper, the most conspicuous thing is a red frame.

The first person inside the frame is undoubtedly Xu Qing, separated by eight names, the first person outside the frame is surnamed Gu and given name Shun.

"Master Lu." Gu Yue's tone was calm, without a hint of emotion, "Help me copy this year's list, just copy the ones in the red box before Gu Shun, and before the end of the application period, you can copy It's in my desk book."

Lu Cheng froze in place, tongue tied.

"If it wasn't for Xu Yuanwai's "Five Elements of the Spring and Autumn Period", Gu, Gu Shun, it turned out that he was one place short, and he would have passed the exam. No, no, he took the exam eighteen times in a row, jumped, The genius who jumped into the river..."

Gu Yue said: "Yes, it happens to be my silly father."

There is no surprise in a day, the time of application is over, and the hour of unitary has arrived.

Gu Yue released the yamen on time, and went home to rest for a while before visiting the Xu mansion as agreed.Ji Yun, Gu Bo and several subordinates were all there.When changing clothes, the sound of silk fluttering behind the screen came to the ears of several people.

Gu Yue said: "Where is Jia Quan now?" Ji Yun said: "In my mansion, accompanied by beauties and fine wine, the mood is stable." Gu Yue responded.Gu Bo continued: "Wang Langzhong has passed the message that Qizhou's long history has been made to restrain Xiao Jiong in joining the army, and it will not hinder the actions of Yan Zuocheng and Zhang Gelao, and..." Gu Yue responded again.

Xu and Liu, the two directors of the Ministry of Rites, looked at each other and said in turn: "Master Gu, according to Zhou Langzhong's order, I have already visited Yan Zuocheng and Mr. Du, and learned the regulations for supporting next year's exam..." Due to the distribution of spoils, Coupled with the fact that Cui Shao, the former doctor of etiquette, was helping Gu Yue renovate the house with his sleeves rolled up, they had no choice but to accept.

"Thank you, everyone." Gu Yue changed the flowing clothes in dark blue, turned out of the screen, left Uncle Gu alone, and asked, "Just now you said that Yan Zuocheng's relatives are almost innocent, what does 'almost' mean? ?”

"The Yan family doesn't want to publicize this matter." Gu Bo said, "Master Zuo Cheng's ex-wife later married Wang Yuanyan, the governor of Weizhou. However, the governor of Wang Yuanyan does have some obvious stains. If someone starts from here..."

Gu Yue said: "Don't be negligent, Ji Yun can't handle this matter, I have to trouble Uncle Gu to go there personally, to prevent accidents before they happen, since I am in Hebei Road, I will write to Ambassador Zhang to explain the situation and ask him to assist you." Gu Bo said yes.

After arranging these things, Gu Yue boarded the double-wheeled carriage at the door and ordered to go to Xu's Mansion two streets to the north.

The red evening light diffuses over the west city wall and shines on the gate of Yongxingfang. Birds sing in Guilin, which is melodious and moving.In this workshop where the poor family lives with the aristocratic family, there are still old men who push carts and sell Hubing, telling the scholars about the tragedy of the great talent Gu Shun making a wrong step, but there are also some people who start to point out the Zhuangyuan Mansion plaque.

Xu Qing greeted her with a smile at the door, her official robes still in place, and her voice was still vigorous and powerful: "Xu's piece of Guilin has survived for seven years, branched out in seven years, bloomed in seven years, and it has been more than twenty years in a flash. Finally we welcome Gu Sheren as a guest."

As the seat master who has been in charge of the examination department for ten years, Xu Qing watched Gu Yue walk towards him step by step.

Even if he is caught in the predicament of Heyin, this son is not dead, but he can also avoid horizontal and vertical, use his tactics, and use the act of abandoning his official position to leave the whirlpool of the transshipment department safely, win Zhang Jiuling's sympathy, and use Xinke as a display of talent This opportunity attracted Yan Ling's attention, and then, he impeached the servant Xiao Jiong, did what he liked, made meritorious deeds, and jumped into the Phoenix Pavilion.

However, Xu Qing never expected that this panicked descendant of the Gu family, who he had observed for half his life, stumbled over and sat opposite the stone case, and when negotiating with him, he didn't even mention a word about the past.

Gu Yue raised his head, neatly tied up the red silk hanging from the branches, and handed it to the waiter of the Xu Mansion, and said with a smile: "To be honest, Gu was only confirmed this morning. Xu Yuanwai is the same year."

Xu Qing said: "This is a fact, and it is also a coincidence." Gu Yue said: "That's right, Gu dare not misunderstand Yuanwai Xu."

Don't talk about the past, just talk about the present.

Gu Yue's reason for coming could not be more direct, he wanted to persuade Xu Qing to give in, and wrote a letter publicly, apologizing to the examinee Jia Quan.In this way, in terms of official document procedures, he has sufficient reasons to refute the other two scholars who objected to the rectification.

The conditions are even more rogue. In terms of interests, Su Jin, the current Minister of the Ministry of Officials, has deliberately withdrawn the right to test merit for officials from the hands of lower-level officials, and all levels of the Ministry of Rites have also made preparations for holding the imperial examination next year. Now, once the official document is passed , then the Kao Gong Division will be dismantled into two immediately, and it will be divided up cleanly, without Xu Qing's slightest taint.

After hearing this, Xu Qing smiled wryly and said, "Gu Lang's request is really unreasonable." Gu Yue said bluntly, if Xu Qing took the initiative to write this letter of apology, he would still be able to keep his official position. Those who are not afraid of wearing shoes, if they continue to sue and yell, Xu Qing will not only lose his official position, but may lose his reputation for the rest of his life.

After all, this is Chang'an, he has a lot of ways to create public opinion and evidence, and turn black and white, and he is doing it for his own good.

"Okay, it's amazing, I understand." A scent of rice wafted by, and the maid came with warm sake and placed it in front of the two of them. Xu Qing stopped Gu Yue's enthusiasm, and said with a smile, "But, how about Gu Lang?" Don't want to think about yourself?"

Gu Yue said: "What does Xu Yuanwai mean?" Xu Qing pointed to the sky: "Gu Lang knows, that day in Luoyang's North Peony Square, Su Gongfeng knelt in front of Xu and said something? Could it be Gu Lang? Do you think Xu passed Ji Changting's test this year, really because of your late father's face?" Gu Yue tightened his palms.

"'Yuan Wai Lang, Gu Lang has no family and power, and he has nothing to say. He only serves the country with fists and fists. I have heard these words. Gu Lang can't afford to offend Mr. Li Ge.' This is the reason why Su worshiped. Words, not many words, not one word less."

After Xu Qing finished reading this passage, he raised his wine glass and swung it in front of Gu Yue: "As far as Xu knows, Gu Lang is a person who understands current affairs. If he changes his attitude at this time, he will completely reject Yan Zuocheng and Mr. Zhang Ge. Therefore, Xu is still willing to communicate with Mr. Li Ge, and in the future, he will go to another state to serve as a governor for two or three years, which will not be the same."

"On the contrary, if you try your best to force Xu to suffer this loss, in the end, what good will you gain? Yes, the imperial examination is an imperial examination, and the merit test is a merit test. Not only the division of labor is more clear, but also the supervision will be stricter. From a long-term point of view, there are no harms but benefits, but can you see that for a long time? Gu Lang, don't play against the times."

"Mr. Xu, Gu knows the fortune."

Later, Gu Yue also admitted that he was really moved, but when he came out of Xu's mansion that day, what he was holding was not Guizhi and wine jars, but Xu Qing's own handwriting, to compensate the examinee Jia Quan Apology paperwork.

The next day, Li and Bai, two scholars, reluctantly signed the memorial, and Zhongshu Wuhua passed the judgment.

Accompanied by the continuous drizzle during the cold food season, a paper-thin official document was sent out from the Xuanzheng Palace and then sent to the imperial city, triggering this change that affected the entire Chang'an and even the world.From then on, officials' examinations were completely separated from the holding of imperial examinations. The venue of the imperial examinations was no longer the courtyard of the Ministry of Officials, but the South Court of the Ministry of Rites.

For Gu Yue, although the situation of Fengge is still clouded, fortunately, Yan Ling also served as the Minister of Rites, keeping pace with Su Jin of the Ministry of Officials, and stabilized the power of measuring and employing people that was originally controlled by the Kaogong Division. In this way, he walked in the court with more confidence.

Rarely peaceful.

In the early days of April, Gu Yue pondered for a long time before he finally made his request to Yuan Renjing, the housekeeper of Zhigao: "Yuan Zhigao, a cold food feast in Linde Hall, Gu is not talented, and wants to go...to watch singing and dancing, please invite the imperial court Case brochure."

Regarding the details of this milestone change, "Datang Xinyu" is the most detailed and comprehensive:

"Schools such as Junxiu can be found everywhere. In the 24th year of Kaiyuan, Li Ang's officials used all the names of the people to claim the name, swaying the chief director, talking about destroying the truth, stealing the disease, and will be reformed. Ji Gongshi made an appointment with him. : "Writing is beautiful and evil, you know it all.The choice of examination school depends on the public.If there is anyone who asks to be entrusted to the time and asks for a voice from others, he should be the first to fall. "Since Uncle Ang is often friendly with Jinshi Li Quan's neighbors, he holds power in Ang. Ang Nu, gathers the power of tribute scholars, and counts them in court. Quan Xie said: "People may know that they steal from the left and right, and they dare not Ask also. "Ang Yin said: "The audience's writings of gentlemen are beautiful.However, the ancients have a saying, Yu does not hide his flaws, he is loyal.If there is a word or not, I will share it with the public, how about it?" Everyone said: "Only the order of the public." After it came out, Quan called the crowd and said: "What I said to you, the meaning belongs to me.I sincerely don't make a decision, so what can I do. "Naiyin asked for the flaws to be treated. In another day, Anguo denounced the flaws in the chapters and sentences and humiliated them. Before handing over his hands, he said: "Husbands still reciprocate, and it is inappropriate to come and not reciprocate."I don't cherish my articles, I have got it and heard it.But the deacon used to have Yashi, and he tasted the way, and the fools will learn from each other, is it possible?" Angry responded: "Why not?" Quan said: "My ears are close to the clear water, and my heart is toward the white clouds." What is the deacon? Is it a word?" Ang said: "Yes." Quan said: "In the past Tang Yao was fading and tired of the world, so he gave Zen to Xu You. Because of the bad news, he washed his ears. Today, Zi Chunqiu is at its peak, and he does not bow to his feet, but instead What's the point of washing your ears?" At this time, the country is peaceful, and all officials are afraid of the law, and they are trembling, and they dare not fall.Hearing the news, he was terrified, kicked up, and didn't know what to pay.But he complained to the ruling party, saying that the power was crazy and not inferior, so he ordered the power officials.Chu Ang used to be strong, and he was not invited by his subordinates, and anyone who had a request would not refuse to obey.Therefore, the court decided that the provincial minister's position was too light to meet the toast, so he asked the minister of the Ministry of Rites to take charge.The Secretary of the Constitution said that power cannot be exhausted, so he went to bed. "

The incident was just a trigger. This year, Jiu Linggong and Li Linfu fought for the power of the people most intensely.

Regarding the plot of Gu Yue's life experience, there are some explanations before and after the chapters of "Appreciating Osmanthus and Hundred Birds' Humble Family", but it doesn't affect too much, he doesn't live for his father.
