The country is not as pretty as the beauty

According to the rules of the Su Dynasty, the number one scholar would visit the Prime Minister on the second day after he paraded through the streets, and Li Yu was no exception, he rushed there without waiting for the next day.

There are peach trees on both sides of the front yard of the prime minister's mansion. In March and April, when the peach blossoms are in full bloom, the mansion is filled with the faint fragrance of peach blossoms, which is very pleasant.

"I look forward to the teacher's cultivation in the future." From entering the door, to sitting down and talking until the end, Bai Duan was very satisfied with this person. Li Yu's information was from a poor family, but through conversation, Bai Duan understood that Li Yu was by no means an ordinary family. However, as for the reasons for his family's downfall, there is no need for him to pursue it.

"Haha, young talents, the emperor needs such talents. There are many things about the emperor, and I will tell you in the future. I hope you will be loyal to the emperor and don't let your teacher down." Bai Duan smiled, and his son also He was as old as Li Yu, and his talent was not lost on Li Yu, but because of the status of the Bai family and the jealousy of the emperor, he never let his son enter the court.

There was something in Bai Duan's words, and Li Yu obviously sensed something, but Bai Duan didn't say anything, so he couldn't ask.

On the second day, he went to the palace to meet the emperor. Tian Wuhen didn't know who was nominated for the gold list, as usual, but this year's quota was not chosen by him personally.

The Taiyuan Hall is very large, and according to the rules, the newly promoted scholars can only stand behind the Ming Pool, which is extremely far away from the emperor, so they can't see the emperor's face clearly.

Tian Wuhen was very reluctant but still came. He still glanced down the hall as usual. The scholars couldn't see him clearly, and he couldn't see them clearly either.

The person at the front of the scholars made him feel a little familiar, and his expression changed suddenly.

"Who is standing at the front?" He said solemnly.

"Minister, Li Yu." Li Yu stepped forward and folded his hands together.

"This year's new champion." Bai Duan added.

"Li Yu!" Tian Wuhen suddenly realized that he forgot about this incident, and unexpectedly let Li Yu win the top spot, he regretted and wrinkled his forehead.

"That's it, the rest, please trouble the prime minister." He said, ready to leave.

"I have one more thing." Li Yu raised his head and said.

"What's the matter?" Tian Wuhen rolled his eyes impatiently, he didn't want to stay here for a long time, and he didn't dare to stay here for a long time.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to go back to my hometown in Qingzhou first. The fact that I can come to Dongdu to take the exam is all due to my grandfather and sister at home."

Qingzhou... He didn't speak, but just waved his hand. Li Yu didn't know what he meant, whether it was permission or not.

Li Yu's official position is yet to be determined. Although it was handed over to Bai Duan, Bai Duan did not dare to arrange it lightly. He knew that everything would not be that simple when the emperor came back, so he did not touch this bad luck.

"Why did you choose which Li Yu?" In the afternoon, he brought Bai Duanzhao to the Xuanzheng Hall, pointed at the bridge of his nose and said, this is not a gift for teachers and students, but it can be regarded as the responsibility of monarchs and ministers.

"Looking at his articles, I'm also a talented and loyal person, and he will be able to serve His Majesty in the future." Bai Duan hurriedly explained, he didn't know how he had provoked her again because he didn't know how to choose talents.

"I think it's for you." He was dissatisfied and frowned.

"I dare not."

"It is true that he is talented, but he knows that I am a woman."

"How is this possible?" Bai Duan was shocked, he didn't know how the emperor met Li Yu, and how Li Yu knew the emperor's real body.

"That day at Mount Tai, she and I... happened to meet Li Yu, and he seemed to have taken a fancy to her." After speaking, Tian Wuhen was a little sad, secretly saddened.

"He's returned to Qingzhou. In the future, arrange for him to be outside the court, or not in the capital. In short, it's fine if I can't see him." He said, and gradually let go of his murderous intentions.

"However, Li Yuzhi's talent has surpassed too many people, so he was buried in such a start?"

"Just Li Yu, if I lose him, will I lose the world?"

"Wei" Bai Duan couldn't say it, and he didn't dare to say any more, so he nodded and backed down.

"Wait." He suddenly stopped Bai Duan, as if thinking of something.

"Li Yu will stay here for reuse, but I haven't seen him during this time."

Standing there, Bai Duan was stunned again, his capriciousness made Bai Duan puzzled, but he still obeyed.

Li Yu returned to his hometown from the eastern capital, and did not make any publicity, Bai Duan prepared a carriage for him so that he could pick up the elderly at home.

After rushing back from the Eastern Capital, there was no rest for a day, and the news of the Su Dynasty would be announced to the world on the day the emperor's list was released. The news of the Suchao passed quickly. Kowtowing, his talent and his way of governing the country and the people are inseparable from the old man in front of him.

"The people in the imperial court are treacherous, and being with you is like being with a tiger. You need to be more cautious." Li E hurriedly helped Li Yu up, and said earnestly.

"Grandfather taught, grandson dare not forget each other."

"Let's just say that my brother's talent must be high school." Li Ping smiled, and the hard days of several years were finally coming to an end.

"Don't be too happy, the temple is lofty and far beyond what you think. Once you enter the court, you will be in a dilemma." Li Yu was not happy when he learned that he was the number one scholar in high school.

"Why is grandpa always like this? He used to do everything possible to prevent my brother from taking the exam, but now he says something like this in high school." Li Ping pouted, very puzzled by the old man's words.

"Grandfather is someone who has experienced it, so what he said is naturally useful, and you should know, Ping'er." Li Yu went over and patted her hand.

Then Li Ping stuck out her tongue, went into the back room and pulled out the pretty girl.

"This is my brother, who just won the number one prize."

Their eyes met, both of them were startled, Bai Muxue didn't know why she was like this, she couldn't remember, and her head hurt a little.

The more she looked at him, the more familiar she felt. There was a figure in her mind in her sleep earlier, very similar to him... a lover?Or the person in front of you?Anyway she was confused.

Li Yu opened his mouth, and wanted to ask something, but Li Ping spoke first.

"Earlier when I was fishing in the Zihe River, I met a girl and suffered injuries all over her body. Now she's almost recovered, but it's just amnesia. How do you recognize her?"

This Li Yu was startled again, he thought about it and shook his head.

Before talking for a long time, gongs and drums were playing outside the dilapidated house, and Li Yu went out to see, it was the villagers, as well as the shopkeeper of the Qingzhou City Tavern in the county.

"Zhuangyuan Lang hasn't forgotten what he said that day, has he?" the shopkeeper said in a lively manner, smiling.

"Thank you for taking care of me, Li dare not forget."

Li Yu has a very good reputation, clean and self-disciplined, and a filial person. She has been here for many days, and she knows all of this very clearly.

Li Yu is not around these days, so she lives in his room. Although it is simple, it is full of books. She also loves to read. Besides, Li Yu's books are all over the house. He tidied up very cleanly before he left, just like his people .

Through words, paintings, and poems, one can know the heart of a person. She was born in a scholarly family. Even if she loses her memory, it is impossible to understand these things.

Today I saw this person again, he really has both talent and appearance, that face, she wanted to catch it many times in her dreams, wanted to get a glimpse of his true face, but she couldn't see it in the end.

The phoenix that Li Yu missed day and night was actually in his home. When he was nominated for the gold list, he still regretted that he hadn't asked about his name and family background that day, but he never thought that this accident was too pleasant a surprise.

"There is a 'Phoenix Prisoner' in my room. I wonder if you have seen it?" After those congratulatory folks sent him off, he was too busy to come back to talk to her.

She nodded, "Young Master Li wrote that poem with true meaning, I don't know which girl it was written for."

Li Yu smiled, looked at him sincerely, and couldn't calm down for a long time, "I always only liked Sima Xiangru's talent, but I didn't like him. After I became famous, I became a person who betrayed my heart."

Bai Muxue smiled and joked, "Master Li must be a dedicated person."

"That poem was written for you. It's like three autumns if I don't see you for a day."

What he said shocked her. When they first met, how could this person fall in love so easily?

"Don't be surprised. I met you once a month ago, but I didn't know that you would end up like this. Where was the girl next to you at that time?" Li Yu asked.

Li Yu was very curious and had doubts, but Bai Muxue was even more doubtful. She didn't remember any of these.

"Girl." She frowned, as if her head was hurting, and her face was twisted.

"The way you frown is like Shih Tzu's pain and illness, peerless."

Bai Muxue didn't know how to respond to his words, she just felt that she often listened to this man's frivolous words.

Li Yu did it on purpose, since everyone had arrived at the door, he accepted it with a smile. No matter what family background this woman was, his heart belonged to her, no matter what happened in the end, at least he got her.

Li Yu's pressing every step of the way made Bai Muxue feel at a loss as to how to deal with herself. Love, of course, was absent, and there was only a very vague figure. It seemed to be this person, but it wasn't.

Li Yu went out, he was not in a hurry, because this person had nowhere to go, he asked his sister to persuade her, and the words reached Li E's ears.

Li E didn't want to keep this woman for a long time, but his grandson actually likes her...

"You can't marry this person." Li E spoke fiercely, but refused.

"Why?" Li Yu didn't understand that he couldn't get Li E's full support for everything he did.

"The origin of this woman is unknown. Look at her conversation. If she is not a woman from the Shandong gentry, she is from the foot of the imperial city. You are so confused." He pointed at Li Yu and scolded her.

"Grandson doesn't care, if you don't want the Li family to die, then let grandson go." Li Yu knelt, tears filled his soft eyes.

"Bastard!" Li E slapped him hard, and the red mark emerged.

"Shandong gentry's marriage has never been decided by themselves. This girl's beauty, I think they would look down on even the royal family. If you insist on this, if she is found by the family, you don't know how she will die. Do you know?"

Marriages of nobles are all marriages of aristocratic families, and as people from Shandong, they will know that the status of the Shandong gentry is not inferior to that of the royal family.

"Even if I die, my grandson will have no regrets." He resolutely made up his mind.

Li E shook his head and smiled wryly, "Then you go, go back to your court, and accompany your king."

Li E pointed to the gate and coaxed him loudly. He was driving Li Yu away, but Li Yu came to pick them up. The tiger in the imperial city came out, how could it go back.

"Grandfather?" Li Yu was stunned, unexpectedly that grandfather was so angry today.

"Take Ping'er and leave. I'm just reminding you that Mingzhu will sometimes be stupid. Be careful in everything."

Then Li Yu is his only grandson, how can he be unfeeling, he said, just had an excuse not to go to Luoyang City, at the foot of the emperor.

With her hands behind her back, Li Ping walked into the room step by step, with a smile on her face, and Bai Muxue knew at a glance that she must be a matchmaker.

"Miss Li, what do you think about me..."

"Don't worry, I know it's a bit abrupt for my brother to do that. He has an elm head. It's the first time I've seen him like a girl so much when he grows up. Normally, he only knows about family, country and poetry."

"It's nice to be ambitious."

Then Li Ping hurriedly shook her head, "But it's not good to have no one around to take care of you. Girl, you are careful and sensible. You can help my brother when he enters the court in the future. That's why Ping'er can rest assured."

Bai Muxue lowered her head and hesitated again and again. This family's persecution, repeated persuasion, and the grace of saving her life, how could she refuse again and again, but she really didn't like Li Yu, and she didn't have any feelings for him.

Li Ping looked at her with begging eyes, she thought about it, then Li Yu is really a good person, if it is said that she is entrusted with life, then Li Yu is a personal choice, so she gritted her teeth and nodded, but it is definitely not love. , If you have to say the reason, it will only be, um.
