This Tang Yong is none other than Li Shi, the crown prince of the dynasty, who called himself "Tang Yong" because he was once named King Yong.

The prince's remarks can be regarded as neutral: as long as Gao Yue can pass the retest, then Chang Gon will not say anything.

Chang Gon, Qian Qi and Zhang Shi also unanimously agreed.

But Emperor Daizong still has doubts, this is actually very smart, he thinks in his heart: If this tribute is really retested, no matter how small the scale is, how the court hides its influence, and how few people are involved, it will be a major event that affects the whole body, and it must not be sloppy.

So Li Yu frowned and walked back and forth twice, and asked three questions in a row in a calm voice, "How many people want to retest?" Where can I retry it? Who will be sent to conduct the re-examination? ”

"Your Majesty, only Gao Yue is the most suspicious on the list, so naturally only Gao Yue is covered. You can choose a small courtyard in the capital hall of Shangshu Province to re-examine, and as for the candidates, Your Majesty can choose from the Hanlin Bachelors. ”

Chang Gon's answer is also reasonable - the Hanlin scholars have a low rank but a high status and fame, plus they belong to the inner court system, and they are not so much involved with the outer courts, and more importantly, they are all the emperor's private individuals, and they are not worried about being serious and responsible.

Seeing the emperor's expression, Chang Gon's face, which was covered by his sleeves, showed a gloomy smile.

In fact, he secretly communicated with Zhang Shi and Qian Qi earlier, as long as the emperor nodded, let Qian Qi preside over the retest, and Gao Yue would definitely die.

The Emperor's lips opened slightly.

Chang Gon kept his eyes peeled.

At this time, in Pan Yan's house, Pan Yan asked the servants to remove all the screens, curtains, and curtains on all sides of the central hall, and set up mattresses to sit alone in the east and west. Gao Yue led all the jinshi and walked in in a queue to the north, then turned around, thanked the chief director, and Pan Yan replied, and said, "Please Zhu Langjun to talk about China and foreign countries." ”

"Weizhou Gao Yue, the line is the third, the county looks at the Bohai Sea......" Gao Yue is the leader, naturally ranked first, he narrated aloud according to his own family, and finally bent over again to greet Pan Yan, "Thank you for the mantle." ”

Today, Gao Yue is lined with white mid-single, covered with a sea blue sparrow-eye gauze robe, wearing a soft gauze hat, his temples are black like scissors, he is handsome, sitting upright like a monument, and Pan Yan is sitting opposite him, and his words are like flowing.

Behind the gauze curtains in the corridors on both sides of Pan Li's middle hall, there are mostly all kinds of ladies, all of whom want to take the lead in choosing a son-in-law for their daughter, and many people are starry eyes, chattering in a low voice around Mrs. Pan Yan, asking whether the "high three drums" and "high two heads" are married, and there are also many who ask Zheng Qi next to Gao Yue.

"Of course there is a marriage match for the third drum in high school!" In a burst of lamentations, Cheng Cui in the imperial history paced over with a wide and swagger, followed by a group of court ministers such as Jingzhao Yin Ligan, and as soon as he said this, many ladies were like cold ashes.

Then Cui Kuan and Li Gan sat in the south of the middle hall, watching the Jinshi who ascended to the top.

"Li Jingyin sent ten lifters this year, and four of the five Chinese eunuchs were on the list, which can be described as a dragon and tiger list, no wonder people say that Jingzhao Mansion raised sons to resist the hundred counties alone, and the release is the rank (equivalent to the first place)." After sitting down, Cui Kuan immediately said good things about Li Gan.

Li Gan also laughed, "According to Cui Zhongcheng, this year's situation is afraid that it will fall into Ling Xian's boudoir." ”

"Where, where, the two are happy." Cui Kuan looked up and laughed, in fact, he was afraid of being taken advantage of by others.

At this time, the jinshi reported to the door one by one, and the banquet officially began.

At the same time, in the Zichen Palace, Emperor Li Yu finally said the words, "Descend to Xuantou and ask the gate pavilion to open the Zizhi Palace, and I want Yanying to summon the right." ”

"Your Majesty!" Chang Gon tried to stop it in a hurry, "Re-test the trivial matter, just appoint a Hanlin Bachelor." ”

Chang Gon didn't expect Li Yu to open the Yanying Palace to study this matter: before Daizong, the Tang Dynasty did not have a system of "Yanying summoning the right", and later because the prime minister Miao Jinqing was old and could not go to the government hall every day to deal with government affairs, so Emperor Daizong directly summoned him in the Xiaoyanying Hall to discuss affairs, and gradually after the early dynasty, the emperor would summon ministers (mainly the prime minister and permanent counselors, but there will also be other relevant ministers, and even those who summoned the leftovers of the left, and in the late Tang Dynasty, there were more Shence lieutenants and privy envoys to Yanying) to discuss politics in Xiaoyanying, and it became a special system - but to be precise, The location of "Yanying Calling" is not Yanying Palace, but should be called Xiaoyanying Palace, also called Zizhi Palace.

"Your Majesty, this day is a double day, and it is inconvenient to summon the right." Zhang Shi also hurriedly said.

It turned out that since Yanying summoned the pair usually after the early dynasty, and the early dynasty of the Tang Dynasty emperor was generally on a single day, the call must also be on a single day.

"It's a big deal, what are the single days and two days?" Emperor Daizong was unmoved.

Soon, in the Zizhi Palace, Liu Yan was summoned in.

"Liu Qing, you're here." Seeing Liu Yan coming, Li Yu asked the chamberlain to give him a seat.

"This is in the capital hall, the door envoy came to summon, and when I came here, I saw that the door of the Zhengya (Xuanzheng Palace) was hanging, and I knew that there was a call." Liu Yan returned, and then he glanced at it, and saw Chang Gon and Cui Youfu sitting separately, their faces full of seriousness, and they immediately knew what was going on in their hearts.

Emperor Li Yu spoke in detail about the matter.

"Your Majesty, Pan Li's appointment of Gao Yue as the head is not due to his poetry and essays, but after the poems are passed, the questions and scriptures are all understood, and they are awarded to the first one." After listening, Liu Yan explained unhurriedly.

Li Yu nodded, and said that I have read all the strategies of the third year of high school, and there is indeed a theory that the country is deaf.

Chang Gon was in a hurry, so he repeated Fang Cai's questioning again.

"Chang Menlang, since the establishment of my Tang Science Field, there are line papers, provincial papers, general lists, and pulls out solutions (without trying), I just don't want to miss the talents. Pan Yan knows the tribute and holds the handle, and Yan still trusts his integrity. But if Chang Menlang has a grudge in his heart, then he might as well take Gao Yue for a while, and please don't care about it. ”

"I don't have any resentment, but I just want justice." Chang Gon is high-sounding. "If you want justice, if you only cover Gao Yue alone, and there is no comparison, how can you reflect justice?" Liu Yan was-for-tat.

Chang Gon was immediately speechless.

At this time, Cui Youfu said, "If it is overcome, it can only cover all the Jinshi who have ascended this year." ”

As soon as Cui Youfu's words came out, even Li Yu was a little frightened, so he turned to Chang Gon, who gritted his teeth, "Do you really want to repeat?" ”

In fact, Chang Gon not only hated Pan Yan for taking Gao Yue as the leader, but also hated it even more - he promised Zheng Qi to be the leader, but now he can't fulfill it, Zheng Qi should not be the head of the head and fall second, but in the future, who will still put what I, the dignified prime minister, said? This resentment and jealousy were like poisonous insects, repeatedly gnawing at his heart.

Under the domination of such emotions, Chang Gon broke out and said loudly, "Please appoint a special person to re-examine all the Jinshi who have ascended to the top in this year's spring!" ”

Li Yu looked at Chang Gon, sighed heavily, and waved his hand, "In this way, it will be done according to Tsukazai's ideas, as for the candidate......"

"Please allow the Hanlin Bachelor to ......" As a result, before Chang Gon finished speaking, Liu Yan also said, "The rank of the Hanlin Bachelor is too low, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public, please Your Majesty let Cui Youfu, a member of the Zhongshu House, preside over the re-examination!" ”
