He has not lived enough

Seeing that the emperor is so approachable, Zhou Yanjun's expression softened a little, but he thanked the emperor dryly and drank the wine in one gulp, and couldn't hold back any more words, and stared at Zhao Yu with big eyes.

Zhao Yu: "..."

Severe social fear has been hammered.

It seems that this person is talented and talented, and it is impossible to expect him to contact and deal with others. In the future, he will be more suitable for a detailed and complicated official position such as editing and compiling books, which does not require much contact with people. He is an academic talent and has not left.

Seeing the cold scene, Zhang Huaixu asked Zhou Yanjun to go back first, and immediately went on to introduce the next one: "Your Majesty, this is the second place Li Xin."

I silently prayed in my heart that this black-faced No. [-] would not be unable to speak a word again.

Li Xin stepped forward to salute the emperor upright, and Zhao Yu also observed him with great interest.

When he got up to salute, Zhao Yu smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a few months, and it seems that Li Bang's eyes are getting darker."

As soon as the words came out, those who were close to him were secretly surprised, why did they hear what the emperor meant, and Li Xin seemed to have known each other before?

Zhang Huaixu also looked at Li Xin quietly. Among the top three, he looks the least obvious, that is, he is black, which is particularly impressive, and he has never heard of what kind of family he is. Did he remember wrongly?

It can't be, if it's really from a family, whoever's child is so black, he will never forget it.

Li Xin was also unexpected, he had thought that the emperor could no longer remember him as a small person.

But the emperor not only remembered, but also made fun of him.

Sensing the probing eyes from all around him, Li Xin calmed down, and said a little embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, students are naturally dark, and it will get darker when they are exposed to the sun in summer. Maybe in winter... it will be a little darker." Whiter?"

He himself was not sure about the last sentence, so Zhao Yu stopped teasing him and said solemnly: "This time your essay in the imperial examination is simple but practical, and I hope that if you become an official in the future, you will still be like this. Don't let me down."

As soon as Zhao Yu said this, he looked at Li Xin more, and Li Xin naturally felt that he was daring, but he was not affected at all, and replied calmly and respectfully: "If students have this opportunity, they will do their best to report it. Your Majesty, I will protect the people, and I will not dare to betray the emperor's kindness."

Nodding in satisfaction, Zhao Yu said a few words of encouragement before giving Li Xin the wine to go down.

Of course, Zhao Yu knew that the group of people around him must be trying their best to find out where Li Xin came from, and he might not be at peace for a while.

That's right, Zhao Yu did it on purpose just now.

Judging from the previous visit, this Li Xin truly cared for the common people, and it can be seen from the imperial examination that he is quite talented and down-to-earth.

But if you want to entrust it with important responsibilities, not only the above points are enough, but the heart and character are equally important.

Zhao Yu wanted to test whether he could withstand the solicitation and annoyance of those who cared, and how he would deal with those people after expressing his special concern for Li Xin.

If he can handle it properly and keep his heart, he will be a truly worthy pillar of talent.

Turning his gaze to the last person, Zhao Yu's eyes lit up after seeing his face clearly.

Zhang Huaiyu was secretly pleased when he saw the emperor's expression, so he said, although there are fewer children in the family this year, this one can earn back the face of the family, and introduced: "Your Majesty, this is the champion of this year. Song Lingyu."

Afraid that Zhao Yu would not know, he added an extra sentence: "He is the son of Song Liang, Duke of Qing."

Song Lingyu stepped forward calmly and bowed: "Student Song Lingyu has met His Majesty, Your Majesty is safe."

"You don't need to be too polite, Zhuangyuan Lang invites you."

After Zhao Yu excused him, Song Lingan thanked him and stood up, without any embarrassment, but looked at the emperor with bright eyes and a smile on his lips.

Standing like a zhilan jade tree, smiling like a bright moon in his arms.

Zhao Yu suddenly thought of two words, which fit perfectly with the young man in front of him. This number one scholar really looks very good as the system said.

In addition to his appearance, his demeanor is also the unique elegance of the children of the aristocratic family. He is neither ostentatious nor restrained. Although he looks at Zhao Yu eagerly, he is clean and pure. Not only does he not feel offended, but he shows his sincerity. cute.

But... To say that he was born better than Bai Qingyu, Zhao Yu would never agree.

But Zhao Yu didn't care too much. How the system tosses is its own, so he just ignores it.

"I have also read your article, and it is as spiritual as yours."

Zhao Yu was not stingy with compliments, and he was telling the truth. He also praised his father by the way: "Qing Guohou has raised you very well, and you have not fallen into the name of an ancestor."

After that, Zhao Yu said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "If the children of the family cherish feathers like you and work hard, I can save a lot of heart."

Hearing these words, Zhang Huaixu's heart skipped a beat, suspecting that the emperor was implicating them again.

Song Lingyu, who was praised, did not show any color, and said modestly: "Students have always admired Bai Xiang, and regarded Bai Que as a role model for people and officials. If they enter the court and become an official in the future, I dare not say that they can do like him, but I hope they can become an official. People who are useful to the country will always accompany His Majesty to share your worries."

Hehe, I didn't expect to capture a little fan of Qingyu alive, who really has the same vision as him.

Zhao Yu became more fond of Song Lingyu, with a more sincere smile on his face, and asked the palace servant to give him wine and said, "Okay, I'm waiting for that day."

He felt that there was nothing wrong with what he said, but Song Lingyu thought of something, her jade-like handsome face was stained with a tinge of red, she raised her head and drank the wine.

Zhao Yu thought that he had drunk too much just now, so he told Song Lingyu to sit back, not noticing the reluctance in his eyes.

Ever since seeing His Majesty on the day of the Lantern Festival, Song Lingyu secretly made up her mind to stand side by side with him one day.

Now, his wish may finally come true.

The top three were all given wine, and got a wave of goodwill in front of all the Jinshi. Zhao Yu completed the task, and left after talking to several examiners.

As soon as the emperor left, the Qionglin banquet became lively again, but this time, everyone paid attention to Song Lingyu and Li Xin.

After all, everyone has seen the situation just now. Although His Majesty has suppressed the family before, his attitude towards Song Lingyu shows that he is not deliberately targeting Song Lingyu. He is just dissatisfied with some actions of the family.

In contrast, His Majesty's attitude towards Li Xin was more intriguing, and there were many people around Li Xin who talked to him.

In contrast, Tanhualang Zhou Yanjun, who is also one of the top three, is surrounded by deserted people. Occasionally, those who want to strike up a conversation are discouraged by his dullness. They really can't continue the conversation. After a while, there is no one around him.

But Zhou Yanjun was not only not disappointed, he seemed to wish that others would stay away from him, and he was enjoying his meal. Looking at it, he turned out to be the most relaxed person at the Qionglin Banquet.

"Great wisdom is like a fool, great wisdom is like a fool." Zhang Huaixu withdrew his gaze from observing Zhou Yanjun, expressing emotion.

"Master Zhang, what are you talking about?" asked the colleague beside him.

Zhang Huaixu glanced at the different expressions of all beings at the Qionglin Banquet, and sighed: "It's nothing, I just feel that we are getting old, and the sky of Dajin is really going to change."

The colleague looked up at the sky wonderingly, wondering if it was a good day, Zhang Huaixu shook his head with a smile and remained silent.

No matter how it changes, he just needs to do his own job honestly.

After the Qionglin Banquet, the number of invitations Li Xin received suddenly increased several times. Some of them were from wealthy families, and some of them were from several generations. One must know that even though he had been admitted to the second place before the Qionglin Banquet, he still could not enter the family. eyes.

Now this...

With a helpless smile, Li Xin secretly sighed that His Majesty's flattery really created a problem for him.

However, since he is ready to step into the officialdom, if he can't even stand this test, what will happen.

He also said that since Li Xin had won the second place, it would not be suitable for him to serve in the Salesian Bureau. The higher-ups also sent someone to replace him very efficiently this time.

Li Xin invited his successor and other officials in the bureau to a restaurant for a banquet, which made the new official terrified. He patted his chest and promised that he would run and manage the Salesian Bureau well in the future, not letting the children Wronged.

He also bought a lot of snacks and gave them to the children. Li Xiaowu said with red eyes while eating, "Ashi, you will spend all your salary this month again for buying such things?"

Although Li Xin has won the Jinshi, these children are still used to calling him Ya Si.

Li Xin said cheerfully: "There will be no shortage of money in the future, and you can buy whatever you want."

Although Jinshi has more monthly expenses, his income has also risen, and Li Xin can still afford these children to eat snacks happily.

He also told Li Xiaowu and the others: "When you go to the academy, don't squander the money and rations given by the court every month, and save the rest for emergencies."

Last time the academy recruited Li Xiaowu and seven or eight other children to sign up, and finally Li Xiaowu and another child were admitted, and now we only have to wait half a month for the academy to officially start.

The two children nodded together, and Li Xiaowu said: "Don't worry, Yasi, I've asked about the food and lodging where the court will cover it, and I don't have to worry about changing clothes in four seasons, and I don't need any money. I'll save it and wait." Take it back to the bureau on vacation."

The rest of the children were envious, some of them were under the age, some were not admitted, and they all secretly decided to try again next time the college recruited them.

"Good boy, just take care of yourself, I'm in the bureau..." Li Xin stroked their heads, then remembered something and asked, "What do you teach in that academy?"

Li Xiaowu shook his head: "We don't know, but when I went to sign up, there were guards there, and they asked us to press our fingerprints, saying that as long as we enter the academy, we can't disclose the situation, otherwise we will go to jail. .”

Li Xin was not disappointed when he got this answer. He let the children eat and drink by themselves, while he thought about it.

It seems that this academy is really unusual, and it is definitely not the reason that some people speculate that it is only for the emperor to recruit craftsmen for fun.

Recalling the seemingly young and ignorant His Majesty, Li Xin laughed.

Anyone who really thinks that he is superficial is really a fool.
