After a while, the sedan chairs of the emperor and queen mother finally arrived.

All the children knelt down and saluted: "Long live the emperor, and a thousand years for the queen mother."

The emperor got off the sedan chair first, and then supported Gao Qiang to get off the sedan chair together with Guo Yulian, Gao Qiang looked at the children kneeling on the ground, and said with a smile: "Today is just a family banquet, you don't have to be so restrained, get up. "

Only then did the disciples get up from the ground and take their seats again.

This was the first time Gao Zhanming met Emperor Li Changzhi and Empress Dowager Gao Qiang after his rebirth.Gao Qiang is nearly fifty years old, but she is well maintained. She looks like she is only in her early thirties. Standing with Li Changzhi, she is not like a mother and son, but more like a brother and sister.After Gao Qiang stepped off the sedan chair, Gao Zhanming was overwhelmed by her aura.She has a calm expression and a grand demeanor, and she has the demeanor of the lord of the world at a glance, while the emperor Li Changzhi stands beside him, on the contrary, she seems submissive and restrained.If that's all, it's all right, Li Changzhi's brows are full of depression and resentment, and his half-bent spine wants to straighten up, but it can't.

Li Changzhi supported Gao Qiang to take his seat, Duke An Guo sat down first under Gao Qiang, Duke Pingyang sat down first under the Son of Heaven, and Hanlin scholars took their seats on both sides.

At the beginning of the banquet, Gao Qiang and Li Changzhi made some speeches first, Li Changzhi took the lead in toasting, and the singers and dancers began to perform. After drinking for three rounds, the atmosphere finally eased down.

As Li Wan said, after all the children were no longer restrained, the Empress Dowager Gao Qiang said loudly: "The wind is sunny today, the weather is fine, and the mountains and rivers are beautiful. You will be the future pillars of my Great Zhou Dynasty all your life." He is a talented person who has read a lot of poetry and books. I think he already has the feeling of reciting poems and composing Fu at this moment. It is rare for everyone to gather together today. Why don't everyone write an article or poem, just write about the scene of today's feast, and the emperor also wrote an article " Preface to Xiangshan Collection, it just so happens that several Hanlin scholars are here today, and the Hanlin compiled and edited the articles, and made it into "Xiangshan Collection" and put it in the library. When you have the opportunity to re-read the collection in the future, remembering today's grand scene, it can be regarded as a pile Interesting."

The crowd complied.

So the accompanying eunuchs and maids distributed the pens, inks, papers and inkstones that had been prepared.

All the disciples had already memorized the article, some wrote it as soon as they picked up a pen, some pretended to conceive for a while, some had forgotten the article they had prepared and scratched their heads, and some secretly took out the article hidden in their sleeves and began to copy it...

After the time of two incense sticks, everyone's articles have been written, and the eunuchs and court ladies began to collect the articles and hand them over to Hanlin scholars for sorting.

The Hanlin scholars sorted the received articles according to the families of their children. They knew how these articles were written, but the form always had to be passed. The singers and dancers began to perform again, and the children began to drink and have fun again. Hanlin review these articles.

Su Yu had several articles written by the Gao family's children in his hand, and he flipped through them hastily.After the previous few incidents, he had already taken a fancy to Gao Zhanming, so when he saw Gao Zhanming's article, he slowed down and read carefully.The articles written by other children are very beautiful, slick and old-fashioned. They are all written by the elders who are outstanding in Chinese. No matter how beautifully written the article is, he still disdains it.But Gao Zhanming's essays are naturally composed. Although they are parallel essays, they don't use uncommon and obscure words. They only use simple and easy words to describe the moving scenery of Xiangshan Mountain. The skill is indeed evident.

After reading Gao Zhanming's article, he nodded silently, put Gao Zhanming's article aside, and began to read other articles.

Suddenly, Su Yuan stopped when she turned to an article, read two lines, put down the other volumes in her hand, picked up the article and read it carefully, the more she read, the more she frowned, and her complexion gradually changed.

Li Changzhi saw that Su Yu's expression was not right, so he couldn't help but put down the wine cup in his hand, and asked, "Su Hanlin, what's wrong?"

Su Yu looked at the signature of the article and asked, "Who is Gao Liang?"

Seeing Su Yu's serious expression, Li Changzhi raised his hand as a signal, and the eunuch beside him got the instructions and immediately ordered the singer and dancer to stop the performance.The lively environment suddenly quieted down, and everyone's eyes were on Su Yu.Li Changzhi said: "Gao Liang?"

Gao Liang was very surprised when his name was mentioned. He felt uneasy, put down the wine cup in his hand to attend, and knelt down in front of Li Changzhi: "Caomin is Gao Liang."

Li Changzhi asked Su Yu: "Su Hanlin, what happened to his article?"

Su Yu raised the scroll in his hand and asked Gao Liang, "You wrote this article?"

Gao Liang plagiarized Gao Zhanming's article. He felt that the parallel essay was written extremely neatly and well, and there was nothing wrong with it. The reason why his article is the best is that something went wrong, so at this time the cold sweat has come down.But no matter what, the article was written by him just now in public, and in front of the emperor, queen mother, An Guogong and others, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "It was written by the grass-roots people."

Su Yu frowned more and more tightly: "The sentences in this article are all your ideas?"

Gao Liang swallowed his saliva, peeked at Su Yu's face, and said in a trembling voice, "Yes... it was the idea of ​​the grassroots."

Gao Qiang was already displeased, and said coldly: "Su Hanlin, what's wrong with his article?"

Su Yu held the corner of her mouth and smiled strangely: "That's strange. Three years ago, I went to Xiangshan Temple to offer incense. Because of the outstanding scenery of Xiangshan Mountain, I wrote a parallel essay describing the scenery of Xiangshan Mountain. Although the article has not been published to the public, it has been circulated among colleagues in the Imperial Academy and the Political Affairs Hall. Several paragraphs of this article written by Gao Liang are identical to the article written by the minister back then. Could it be that he and the minister have a tacit understanding to come to this place? Where?"

As soon as this remark came out, there was no sound at the table for a while.

Today, the articles written by the disciples are to be compiled into Xiangshan collection and collected in the inner courtyard of the palace and circulated among the bureaucrats. Therefore, although the articles written by the disciples are ghostwritten, they must be new articles, and no one dares to come up with them. Past articles are used to make up the number, otherwise it will become a big joke if it is found plagiarized when the anthology is completed.

Su Yu's parallel essay was not widely circulated, but it was compiled into a book by Li Wan, and was later presented to Gao Zhanming by Li Wan.Gao Zhanming deliberately recited Su Yu's article on that day to make Gao Liang steal it. He knew that today, including Su Yu, all Hanlin scholars would attend the meeting, and Su Yu would be in charge of editing it. One is that Su Yu has always been an upright person, and the other is that if he does not point out on the spot, if the article "written" by Highlight is discovered after it is included in the anthology, Su Yu, as an editor, will also have an unshirkable responsibility.

When Gao Liang heard this, he was startled.He obviously plagiarized Gao Zhanming's article, so how could it be an article written by Su Yu three years ago? !If Gao Zhanming dares to accuse him of plagiarizing articles, he and Gao Zhanming are both young and unknown children after all, because he has distributed Gao Zhanming's anthology everywhere and claimed that he wrote it. Now his literary name is even higher than Gao Zhanming's. But Xun is a scholar of the Hanlin University who is famous all over the world. If he dares to slander Su Xun, wouldn't it be a joke? !

Li Changzhi and Gao Qiang didn't expect such a thing to happen at a good banquet. After all, Gao Liang is a child of the Gao family, Gao Qiang's face suddenly became very ugly, and he said coldly: "Gao Liang, what's going on?" ?!"

Gao Liang's face was livid with fright, he hesitated and couldn't say a word.He already guessed that he had fallen into Gao Zhanming's trap, but he plagiarized the article on his own initiative, so what could he say?

An Guogong Gao Yuanzhao couldn't sit still.Gao Liang was originally not qualified to participate in today's feast, but Zongzheng Gao Meiyong repeatedly recommended him. He read Gao Liang's article and thought that his article was very well written. The son of the Gao family had a long face, so he kindly brought Gao Liang here.He said slowly, "Gao Liang, have you ever read Su Hanlin's article?"

Gao Liang immediately understood what An Guogong meant, and now that the matter has come to an end, he had no choice but to admit tremblingly: "Caomin...Caomin has indeed read Su Hanlin's article! Su Hanlin's parallel prose is really neat and moving, just now the Holy Majesty ordered us to write it temporarily When Caomin sees the beautiful scenery of Fragrant Mountain, when he closes his eyes, Su Hanlin's words and phrases appear in front of Caomin's eyes. Caomin was confused for a moment, so he actually wrote down those words... This, this... really, Caomin was confused for a moment!"

The faces of Gao Qiang and Gao Yuanzhao softened a little. Gao Qiang was about to say a few words on the scene to make fun of Su Yu's article for hooking Gao Liang's soul away, and then exposed the farce, but Li Jingruo suddenly He said: "I remember that Gao Liang's articles are quite famous. I have also read his recent articles on economy and people's livelihood. They are very well written. Is it because he is not good at parallel prose? Or, it is Su Hanlin The article written by Su Hanlin is so good, after reading Su Hanlin's article, people don't know how to write the article."

A disciple of the Zhao family heard this and sarcastically said: "His previous article was well written, but he must have been confused for a while, and every word and every sentence he read from others has become his own."

Gao Zhanming listened to what everyone said, with a calm expression, and raised his wine cup to take a sip.Putting down the wine cup, he saw Li Jingruo looking at him.

Li Jingruo didn't know that Gao Liang's article was plagiarized beforehand, but when Gao Liang was summoned to attend, he found that Gao Zhanming looked complacent, different from the blank curiosity of other children, as if he knew that such a thing would happen.He turned his brain around a bit and guessed a little bit of what happened, and then deliberately added embellishments to his words, highlighting previous articles to make the play more interesting.

Li Changzhi asked Su Yu: "Su Hanlin, did he copy your article three years ago?"

Su Yu said: "It's not that the whole text is plagiarized, there are still a few paragraphs that he wrote himself."

Li Changzhi smoothed things over and said, "Then..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but Su Yu interrupted: "Your Majesty, just to remove the part he plagiarized, I think that Gao Liang's article is inappropriate, so it cannot be included in Xiangshan Anthology."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was stunned again.

Gao Liang was so frightened that he almost peed his pants.Damn Gao Zhanming, what a big hole he has dug for himself!Why is there something wrong with a parallel essay describing the beautiful scenery of Xiangshan Mountain and the royal feast?
