The glass consort of crossing

The hour-long horse-crossing parade ended under the gaze of the common people. Wang Siyou led the way and brought the other four people to the gate of the palace, waiting for the emperor to summon them.

"The number one scholar in modern subjects, the second place in the civil and military rankings, the best of the best, and see you in the hall"

"The ministers kowtow to my emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor" Wang Siyou and others knelt down to pay respects to Emperor Yongjing.

"Pingshen." Emperor Yongjing's majestic voice sounded.

"Thank you, Your Majesty"

"Hehe, the five of you are the leaders of today's science. In the future, you must do your best and be loyal to the country." Emperor Yongjing is still in a good mood. The weather in Yongguo has been smooth so far, and the people on the border have no worries about food and clothing. In the future, there will be able ministers to help The crown prince ruled the world, and Kui Ning had a candidate for a son-in-law, one by one, how could Emperor Yongjing be unhappy!

"Yes, the ministers will do their best and be loyal to the country." Wang Siyou and the other five expressed their hearts in unison.

Emperor Yongjing nodded, and said with a smile, "Zheng Ji, I want you to go to the Tiger and Leopard Camp for some experience, so go and become a Yunqi Captain!"

Emperor Yongjing's arrangement was exactly where Zheng Ji wanted to go, and he quickly knelt down to thank him, "I will definitely live up to the emperor's expectations, practice hard and serve the country."

"Well, good, the Zheng family is loyal!" Emperor Yong Jing praised without hesitation, which is also the glory of the Zheng Ji family.

"Li Xun will stay by my side, and he will be named a fourth-rank guard with a knife." Li Xun is a person who is good at martial arts, loyal, and only obeys orders. If such a person stays by my side, he can use it at ease.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Xun knelt down to thank you.

Emperor Yongjing looked at Guan Nuo, he could not be appointed high or low, and at the same time, his official position was respectable, but he could not hold real power, "Guan Nuo, you have a very good literary talent, and I am optimistic about your talent. I am a bachelor of the Imperial Academy, which is the most suitable for you." However, if you go there, there is just room for you to play your role, don't let me down!" The Imperial Academy attendant, a bachelor, from the fourth rank, gave the housekeeper enough face, and did not release real power. This position is a casual job.

"I must live up to the emperor's expectations." Guan Nuo didn't know what Emperor Yongjing's arrangement meant, but he said that he took good care of the housekeeper, thanked him happily, and thought about working hard in the future, striving to become a cabinet bachelor, and then Grandpa is as high and powerful as he is.

"En..." Emperor Yongjing turned his head to look at Jiang Wei again. Jiang Wei was loyal, but also from a poor family, with integrity, and what he hated most was corruption and perverting the law. He was the most suitable servant of the prince. "Jiang Wei, I ordered you to be a servant of the Imperial Academy and also a servant of the prince."

Jiang Wei was terrified, from the official position of the fifth rank, the emperor had already favored him, and let him be the prince's attendant, what kind of concept is this, it is obvious that he must be reused!The prince is the future emperor, and if you get close to the prince, the future will be bright!But Jiang Wei didn't dare to take it, the burden was too heavy, "Your Majesty, I am grateful for the grace, but I am afraid that I will not be able to take up the position of the prince's servant. Please forgive me."

Emperor Yongjing was not angry, but smiled and said, "Yesterday I read the examination papers of you guys again. Jiang Wei, you are very proficient in the scriptures and poetry, and you are qualified for the job of accompanying the prince to study, so you don't have to shirk." gone."

"This, that minister, I will fulfill my mission and do my best to urge the prince to study." Jiang Wei is grateful for the emperor's kindness, and also grateful for God's kindness to him. In the past, Wang Siyou gave him silver, and now he is promoted by the sage.

Emperor Yongjing nodded, and looked at Wang Siyou again. This Wang Siyou put him in a dilemma. This is a person who wants to be a princess, but also capable of writing and martial arts.When arranging the cabinet, Prime Minister Guan was the first to refuse, hey, what a shame! "My dearest ministers, I haven't thought about the official position of the number one scholar, let me think about it again!"

Prime Minister Guan stood up, "Report to the emperor, there is still a vacancy for the Minister of Rites, how about letting the champion fill it?" This Wang Siyou is a threat. He is capable of both literature and martial arts. The cabinet, isn't that going to decentralize power?Also, although the emperor is clearly promoting the housekeeper, he actually weakened the power of the housekeeper. The empress sent someone to report yesterday that Guan Ji might marry Princess Zhangqi. All of them are idle jobs, so in this case, Guan Nuo can't get real power, and Guan Ji is an idle job, so wouldn't the generation of housekeepers be in my hands?Such a thing must never happen.

Emperor Yongjing was still considering Prime Minister Guan's suggestion, but Sun Liang stepped forward, "Your Majesty, the number one scholar is capable of writing and martial arts, but going to the Ministry of Rites really can't show his talent. The position of minister of the Ministry of War can still be called the number one scholar. "Sun Liang's ancestor is also from a humble family, so he would not look at Wang Siyou and others differently, and Sun Liang is a loyal old courtier.

Emperor Yongjing asked puzzledly, "It seems that there is no vacancy in the Ministry of War. Could it be that I remembered it wrong?"

"Your Majesty, the old minister is getting old. It's time to retire and leave the position to the young people." Sun Liang said this to Prime Minister Guan. Sun Liang is not as old as Prime Minister Guan. When he said this, he was a bit smart Everyone knows what it means.

Emperor Yongjing smiled, looked at Prime Minister Guan, and wondered how it would end well. Today's effect is already very good.Emperor Yongjing glanced at Lin Xiong, Lin Xiong understood, "Your Majesty, Mr. Sun, the pillar of the country, would it not be a loss to our dynasty if he retired from his old age and returned to his hometown? I have a suggestion that the number one scholar should go to the cabinet to study important military and political affairs. Martial arts is suitable for the talent of the champion." Lin Xiong has followed Emperor Yong Jing for decades, and he knows what's going on just by looking at him.

Emperor Yongjing smiled, and now the groundwork has been prepared, and it will be fine to seal it later. "Well, let me think about it." Emperor Yongjing stroked his mustache and said, "Okay, today's court meeting will end here. The four of you go to the inaugural office to get acquainted. In the evening, I will hold a banquet in the imperial garden."

"Back to court" a sharp voice woke up the stunned Wang Siyou.In this court meeting, Wang Siyou didn't say a word, but everyone was besieging him, making him helplessly stuck.

Wang Siyou was about to go out when he was stopped by a eunuch, "Zhuangyuan Lang, the emperor asked you to meet him in the imperial study."

"Oh? Eunuch, do you know what's going on?" Wang Siyou guessed in his heart the purpose of asking him to go.

"Hehe, Zhuangyuan Lang was joking, how can a servant know what the emperor is thinking!" After speaking, the father-in-law made a request.

Imperial study room

"My lord, Wang Siyou kowtowed to the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor." Wang Siyou bowed on his knees.

Emperor Yongjing asked Wang Siyou to get up and asked, "Are you familiar with Ji Ning?" Emperor Yongjing didn't give Wang Siyou time to think, and he was caught off guard.

"The first time we met in Sanxing Temple, the second time in Jingdezhen, and the third time in Chang'an," Wang Siyou said.

Emperor Yongjing nodded when he heard Wang Siyou's answer, "I intend to promise you Quining, are you willing?"

"I am willing." Who dares to say no?Look at your appearance, if anyone dares to refuse, his head will be moved immediately, immediately.

"Then what guarantee do you have that you can make Kui Ning happy?" This is the most concerned question of Emperor Yong Jing, he is very afraid that Kui Ning will have a bad life.

Wang Siyou bowed his head and pondered for a while, and found a better answer, "I will do my best to secure the country and give the princess a worry-free future, and in this life, I will only love the princess alone."

Emperor Yongjing was very satisfied with Wang Siyou's answer, and he could see the firmness in his eyes, "Okay, at the dinner, Prince Jin brought three difficult questions to Yongguo. If you answer all of them tonight, I will promise you You." Emperor Yong Jing wanted to consider Wang Siyou's talent, and he wanted to check it out for Ji Ning.

"I will do my best." Wang Siyou knelt down again.Be sure to behave well tonight, Kui Ning, I can finally marry you.There is also the cabinet, I must enter, only in the cabinet can I investigate everything.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

"Your Majesty, there is a hermit in the Kingdom of Jin who discovered three difficult problems and spent his whole life to solve them. There are many talented people in the Kingdom of Yong. I wonder if you are interested in answering one or two of them?" Prince Jin glanced contemptuously. Among the ministers, the Jin State favors martial arts, while the Yong State is full of civil servants, weak and weak.

Prime Minister Guan stood up and said to Emperor Yongjing with a smile, "Your Majesty, since the prince has a taste for elegance, I will definitely accompany you to the end."

Emperor Yongjing nodded, "Then let the prince come up with a question!"

Prince Jin smiled triumphantly, took out a big round ball, pointed to it and said, "The inside of this object has nine bends and eighteen bends, and the outside of the ball corresponds to two round holes. Who can let these two round holes go through?" ?”

Emperor Yongjing looked at the ministers, "Whoever can solve this problem, I will reward you very much." There was silence, and no one came out to answer. In fact, Emperor Yongjing also knew that this problem was difficult to solve.

Seeing Prince Jin's pride, Wang Siyou looked very displeased, "I am willing to give it a try."

"Who are you?" Prince Jin asked.

"My lord, Wang Siyou, is the number one scholar in this discipline." Wang Siyou bowed his hands politely and said.

"Hey, it's a civil servant again, so tell me, how can you get through it?" The prince thought that Wang Siyou was only good at literature but not martial arts, so he despised him.

"This method is very simple. Find an ant nest, and there must be an ant queen inside. Stick the ant queen to the hole, and put a male ant tied with silk thread into the other hole." Wang Siyou glanced at Prince Jin. The expression on his face was like a pig's liver, and he was extremely surprised.

"How do you know?" Prince Jin looked at Wang Siyou in disbelief. This question was only thought up by the wise men of Jin Kingdom all their lives.

"Prince, in fact, all the adults here will know this question. It's just that Yongguo is a country of etiquette. If a small person asks a question, an old person will answer it. It's a suspicion of bullying the young. That's why I, a junior, will answer the question." It shows that everyone in the Yong Kingdom is capable ministers, which shows that the Yong Kingdom is full of talents; second, it shows that the Jin Kingdom does not know the etiquette of respect and inferiority, and it is a wild land.

"You, hmph, what is the skill of answering one question correctly, do you have the guts to accept the next question?" Prince Jin was anxious.

Wang Siyou said with a smile, "Okay, but you have to be lucky." The trick started, Wang Siyou was waiting for Prince Jin to fall into the trap!

"This...'Prince Jin began to hesitate. The lottery may be a city, or it may be pigs, horses, cattle and sheep, these are things he cannot decide.

"Why, Prince Jin dare not? I heard that the people of the Jin Kingdom are very brave, it seems that the rumors are wrong." Wang Siyou continued to use aggressive methods to stimulate Prince Jin.

"Oh, who said that Xiao Wang dare not. Tell me, what do you want to bet?" The remaining two questions are very difficult, and I don't believe he can answer them.

"If you lose, return Jinzhou and Jiangzhou to Yongguo, and within 50 years, you must not invade Yongguo, harass the surrounding people, and unite with other countries to besiege Yongguo. Prince, do you have the guts to agree?" Wang Siyou Knowing the national humiliation of the Yong Kingdom, the two cities of Jin and Jiang fell into the hands of the Kingdom of Jin, and the people in the two cities suffered unspeakably.

Prince Jin thought for a while, "Okay, I promise you! But my condition is that Princess Jingning will marry Xiao Wang." The prince did not give up. Ever since he saw Princess Qingning, he fell in love with her at first sight, and his heart was always on his mind. They are all married to Princess Kuining.
