After the death escape, I became the white moonlight of the crazy tyrant

Wen Hemian had the privilege of not having to salute, but she also realized that today's salute took a little too long.

Before he could even look at her in doubt, Xie Lang seemed to have come to his senses and said calmly, "Stand up."

Everyone present expressed their gratitude and stood up.

Even though Ye Zhaoxuan usually followed a group of imperial censors in the court to scold people without any chance of retorting, he still didn't dare to be too presumptuous in such formal occasions, especially in front of His Majesty.

Ye Zhaoxuan touched his neck in confusion, feeling that the young emperor looked at him with a somewhat cold look.

His seat was not far from Wen Hemian. He stood up, greeted her, and quietly returned to his seat. He sat upright with his back straight and looked at the group of students.

So many years have passed in the blink of an eye. Looking at this group of young people, I just feel so happy.

Seeing that Ye Zhaoxuan was quite sensible, Xie Lang withdrew his gaze with satisfaction. He glanced at the wine on the table and said, "Send it to the Master to have a taste."

There was never much newly brewed wine in the palace, so the emperor was the only one who came. However, Xie Lang insisted that Wen Hemian should also have some of what he had, and he would think of letting her taste all the good things first.

Lai Xi understood, and walked to Wen Hemian with the wine in his hand, saying respectfully, "This is newly brewed wine. Your Majesty asked me to bring it to Lord Wen for a taste."

Wen Hemian is not fond of drinking, and the alcohol content of Dazhao's wine is relatively low. She likes to try it as a beverage. At least for now, her alcohol tolerance is much better than Xie Lang's.

She tasted it and nodded: "Not bad."

Xie Lang looked at her with his eyes lowered and a smile.

Even though this was the closest position to the emperor at the moment, it was still a little too far for him.

What stands between them is far more than just the barrier of identity.

But what does it matter? One day, he will resolve the obstacles himself and then tell Wen Hemian that these are not problems.

The interaction between the emperor and the imperial teacher was seen by everyone.

Maybe they themselves don't think there is anything wrong, but it is very novel for the candidates who have not yet entered the court.

"That Lord Wen looks really young."

Someone came closer and said to Shen Changyan.

Shen Changyan had been secretly observing the surroundings since he sat down. His family was relatively wealthy and he had made arrangements in the capital in advance, so he knew some situations quite clearly. For example, he knew that the person who had just talked with the imperial teacher was the current Left Censor-in-Chief.

The two adults seem to have a good relationship.

After all, Shen Changyan had just arrived in the capital, and he couldn't help but feel excited. He whispered, "It's not that she looks young. Lady Wen is young to begin with, not much older than you and me. It's just that when she entered the court, we were still studying at home."

"That's really amazing. He got six first place in the imperial examination, three more than you, Brother Shen!" Someone next to him joked with a smile, "It's clear that Taifu Wen is a loyal minister, but how come he is described by others as a powerful minister who controls His Majesty!"

"Don't say that casually." Shen Changyan lowered his voice and replied, "But Master Taifu does make us admire him."

The group of newly-appointed scholars were extremely excited, and their discussion, which was intended to cover up something, was seen by the people above them. Fortunately, Xie Lang did not have the time to pay attention to it, and did not point it out even when he saw it.

Since he took his seat, the sound of music began to rise, and delicacies were brought in like a stream and placed in front of everyone. Everyone finally quieted down.

After the ceremonial officer made the announcement, everyone started with the flying flower order. The excitement was hidden in the nervousness on the faces of the Jinshi candidates. Everyone racked their brains to use what they had learned, and they recited poems for a while, which was very lively.

Xie Lang would occasionally make a few comments, but more often it was Xu Jijiu, the chief examiner, who made the comments. The students who received his guidance blushed with excitement.

Wen Hemian was enjoying the food while watching the fun. When she was picking up some food, she suddenly felt a shadow in front of her eyes. When she raised her eyes, she saw someone standing in front of her.

The man was wearing a red round-necked robe. He clasped his fists and stuttered as he spoke: "Master Wen!"

Wen Hemian recognized Shen Changyan. She thought she was quite approachable, so she asked with a smile, "Do you have something to talk to me about?"

"When I was still in Jiangnan, I had heard of Lord Wen's name for a long time. Now that I see that you are not involved, I dare to ask you for your advice."

When talking about Jiangnan, we have to mention the Jianghuai region where the maternal family of Princess Huailing is located. The two are basically inseparable. Therefore, Prince Huailing and the Princess are very famous there.

As their only child, Wen Hemian would be mentioned more or less, especially after she became an official in the court.

"Okay." Wen Hemian agreed. She thought for a moment and said, "Then why don't I give you a word of advice?"

"Establish a mind for the heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the living people, carry forward the unique teachings of the past saints, and create peace for all generations."

"This is what an elder once told me. I think it is in line with the way of being an official. I think you will learn something from it."

Wen Hemian smiled gently, his voice slow and gentle like a spring breeze, he spoke neither hurriedly nor slowly, but every word he spoke was weighty.

Shen Changyan was shocked after hearing this, and immediately bowed: "Thank you for your guidance, Lord Wen, Shen understands!"

Wen Hemian usually stays at home and rarely shows up in front of students.

Although there were many rumors about her in the outside world, when Shen Changyan saw the majestic emperor in the palace that day, he had silently ruled out those bad speculations.

When I met him in person, I felt that this imperial teacher was truly a man of integrity and honesty, and was definitely not a so-called treacherous and treacherous person.

Seeing that Shen Changyan's eyes were full of admiration for herself, Wen Hemian felt a little embarrassed. After all, what she quoted was indeed the words of her predecessor, but they did not exist in the world of the book.

Shen Changyan was obviously more excited than she had imagined. After returning, he discussed it with a few friends, and his eyes looked at her even more eagerly.

Wen Hemian coughed, felt dizzy, and restrained himself from taking more wine.

The banquet was coming to an end. Xie Lang gave out many gifts, and the scholars and officials left one after another.

Lai Xi looked at Wen Hemian in a tangled manner, and then looked at Xie Lang in a tangled manner. He didn't know why he felt that the emperor was in a bad mood. He stamped his feet and just woke up to go to Wen Hemian's place, when he heard the emperor say, "Go call the tutor over."

As he spoke, Xie Lang stood up and walked steadily behind the screen.

Lai Xi did not dare to delay and hurried to invite Wen Hemian.

Having worked in the palace for many years, he has become almost a shrewd man. Judging from His Majesty's recent unusual attitude, it can be seen that something unspeakable has indeed happened between him and Lord Wen.

Don't ask too many questions, just do your job steadily.

But I still hope that these two are doing well, so that they can feel at ease when doing things.

Lady Wen has taught His Majesty so well, but she herself is more like a lock. No one knows what will happen if the lock is broken.

Wen Hemian glanced at Lai Xi, who was smiling flatteringly, and stood up: "Lead the way."
