"I have left Beijing since I was a child. In order to continue the blood of my Yuan family, I have no resentment. In fact, I have been away from home for a long time and miss my parents..."

"Fortunately, I was able to return to Beijing this year, but there was a disturbance in the fiefdom. As a last resort, I had to leave in a hurry. After a few months of haste, my son and minister were sleepy at night, and finally settled the matter recently. I am here to apologize..."

"During my son's return to Beijing, I experienced the prosperity of the capital under the rule of my father. During a visit, I had to meet a young man. I have to take part in the examination at such a young age. It can be seen that my father has worked hard..."

"Later, I learned that the young man's name is Chu Yue. He hasn't chosen a character yet. He is still young but can talk freely. It would be a blessing if he was lucky enough to be named on the apricot list..."

"Although the state affairs are urgent, the emperor should take care of his health, and the ministers will definitely remember the teachings of the emperor."

The emperor sent most of his servants out, leaving only two eunuchs around, holding a few thin pages of letter paper, but read it for more than half an hour.Looking carefully, the emperor's eyes were already moist.

The letter was naturally sent by Yuan Jirui, and his most fundamental purpose was just to help Chu Yue.

After the prince took back the power in the court and the imperial concubine and his prince were suppressed, the emperor somehow came to his senses, but after so many years of squandering, he couldn't find the passion to scold Fang Qiu, and he was more thinking about past.

Thinking of the current empress, although she is the same as her eyebrows, she can no longer find the intimacy of the past. Thinking of the prince, I was so happy that when he had his eldest son,

But he had the intention of abandoning him.

More, what I think of is the youngest son who was sent away by him at a young age.

Why did he mess up at that time, and sent the youngest son born to the queen with whom he had been in love with to the northwest.As long as he thinks about the grievances that the child suffered when he was young, he feels guilty.

And what Yuan Jirui urgently used was the emperor's guilt. He hadn't been with the emperor for many years, and he had witnessed how the emperor doted on the imperial concubine and made his mother sad, so he didn't hesitate to use it.

Yuan Jirui sat in the courtyard of the palace and poured himself a drink. Even after so many days, he still couldn't forget his love for that young man in Kyoto, and it even got worse.However, he couldn't bear to drag the boy into this abyss that was doomed to end without a disease.

So be it!

Yuan Jirui took a sip of wine, the young man was talented and capable, so he secretly helped him.Let him release his light in front of everyone.

…………

The palace test, when all the students dream of seeing the emperor once released to the people is something that can be boasted for a lifetime.

When Chu Yue performed three kneeling and nine prostrations, he was still in a trance. To be precise, since the moment he knew that he was going to try the Huiyuan, he felt that it was unreal. There are so many talented people on the field, how could it be his turn? ?

And the family members who knew the news were even more crazy. His father wrote to say that if he couldn't leave, he would bring Dalang Erlang back to congratulate him, and finally wrote "My son is very good" at the end of the letter!And three times!

His mother even held a big teacher appreciation banquet, and invited Li Zhongyun to come to the mansion as a guest. Whenever Mr. Liu saw his former colleagues, he would "inadvertently" say that this year's Huiyuan was his grandson, who was only 15 years old, and then he heard a lot of good things. Leaving with a smile.

That's why Chu Yue, who had been bombarded by his family's actions, realized belatedly that he really became a Huiyuan.

Moreover, he will participate in the palace examination, meet the emperor, and may contribute to the construction of Dahui in the future.

He found this operation a bit confusing.

"Enter--!"

A high-pitched voice interrupted Chu Yue's "crazy thoughts". Chu Yue quickly restrained her mind and followed the guidance to enter the Golden Luan Hall.

Chu Yue walked on the clear ground and took a rough look inside the hall.The area is very large, but it cannot accommodate so many people who participated in the palace examination.

Therefore, those with lower rankings can only take the exam outside the hall. As for whether the wind in spring is cold or not, it is not the big man's concern to affect the candidates' grades.

Chu Yue's position is naturally very good, the front row, right in the middle, facing the emperor above.

Chu Yue secretly sighed, this is also a proper C position.But he didn't have the guts to look at the emperor above.At that time, if he was convicted of disrespect for peeking at the emperor, who would he cry to?

Chu Yue complained in her heart, but the person above was looking at him.

After reading the letter, the emperor found out the person from the information given in Yuan Jirui's letter.The results surprised him.

The 15-year-old Huiyuan is Dahui's first job. If he can keep his grades in this palace examination, even if he is a candidate, it will be an achievement of his reign.

Coupled with Yuan Jirui's beautification in the letter, the emperor looked at the red-lipped and white-toothed young man who was extremely handsome and pleasing to the eye.

The eunuchs around the emperor were all good people. Seeing the emperor's face overflowing with satisfaction, Chu Yue's face was revealed when he looked at the emperor's face. .

As soon as Chu Yue knew what the people above thought, after saluting, Chu Yue sat down, opened the test paper, and checked the questions.

Seeing this, he was surprised.

Since the examination, the questions this year have been based on practicality. I did not expect the palace examination to be in this way.Withdrawal is the question of national finance and business.

This is the deep-rooted impression in the mind of the whole country.I always think that being an official is superior to others, and a businessman is inferior to the bottom of his heart.

Although a new decree has been promulgated in the past two years to allow the sons of merchants to participate in the imperial examination, people still have taboos about the identity of merchants.

However, businessmen have a lot of money in their mobile phones, especially in the south of the Yangtze River, where the rich are everywhere, and some of them are trying their best to win bribes for the children of their families. Only the officials who are found out receive astronomical figures in bribes.

The imperial court can't ignore these businessmen, and can't control them too much. Without these businessmen, what will the country do with taxation, and letting things go will cause a vicious circle of things.

Moreover, some industries are too chaotic and urgently need to be sorted out. These are matters that the court must deal with urgently. After discussion, the bigwigs in the court and the emperor agreed to simply use this as a question for the palace examination.

Looking at the exam questions, Chu Yue glanced around in small movements, wondering if she had saved the koi. With such good luck, most of these examinees looked puzzled and looked helpless.

That's right, everyone has honestly read the sages' books for more than ten years, and now they come up with such a question, it's really hard to answer without a few brushes.

But Chu Yue didn't care about others, since God was helping him, then he wouldn't be polite.

Chu Yue sorted out the contents in her mind and wrote.

Don't emphasize too much emphasis on agriculture and suppress business, but the rights and channels of businessmen must be narrowed.There are many industries, but the important ones, such as salt, iron, and mines, must be owned by the state, and private money is not allowed.

Chu Yue wrote a lot, but the number of words was controlled within a certain range, and the scrolling was pleasing to the eye, so she put down the pen in satisfaction.

"My lord, the emperor's servants will submit your test paper."

Chu Yue, who was waiting for the ink to dry completely, raised his head, when an eunuch walked up to him at some point and asked for a test paper.

Chu Yue hurriedly presented the test papers, feeling turbulent in her heart, what's wrong with the emperor, shouldn't the emperor decide the ranking after the officials who examine the papers select the best ones.

Such unreasonable playing of cards made Chu Yue anxious to wait in front of the teacher for his grades to be corrected.

The emperor looked at the test paper presented in front of him, and his eyes lit up at first. The child's test paper was definitely a good one, and when he was halfway through, he couldn't help but be overwhelmed and said yes three times in a row.

He Mingyuan was also in the palace, and when he heard the emperor's blessings, he knew in his heart that Chu Yue, the number one scholar, might not be able to escape.Alas, anyway, this is something that can be expected, thinking of this, I concentrate on answering my test paper seriously.

However, He Mingyuan was able to hold his breath, but other candidates may not be able to, and there are not a few people who are impatient.

Now, the emperor was grading the papers on the top, and the examinees were answering the questions impetuously below. Chu Yue couldn't walk alone, and she didn't have to answer the questions. She could only study the patterns on the edge of the test paper, not to mention, it was really beautiful.

Throughout the day, when the officials signaled the end of the exam, Chu Yue had already studied the patterns thoroughly.It took him half a day to answer the paper, and another half day to study the patterns.

The emperor just looked at it and left, not forgetting to take the test paper away.

Chu Yue looked at the candidates who were walking towards the palace gate in a good manner and planned to follow the crowd, but before they could take a step, they were stopped by an eunuch.

"Master Chu, please follow this servant, the emperor is so pleased."
