Houmen Fenghua: Meet the best evil mother-in-law

Chapter 444
The Golden Dragon and Tiger Talisman can be used to adjust the army and horses of the world.

Back then, the ancestors of the Yao family fought with the late emperor and made great achievements.Although not as good as the other great generals, he was an absolute confidant to the late emperor.

Therefore, the first emperor "hidden" the golden dragon and tiger talisman in the hands of the ancestors of the Yao family.

It was passed down from generation to generation and passed down to the hands of the old earl.

When the old earl came here, the Yao family had already faded out of the core circle of the aristocratic family. He wanted to change the family and find another way out for the Yao family.But it is a pity that the Yao family seems not born to study, neither the uncle Yao nor the second master Yao showed any talent in this area.

The old earl could only watch the Yao family's decline, and then...

After the palace examination was over, the examination paper was slurred and sent to the examiner in charge of grading.This group of examiners had already been "closed" a few days before the start of the palace examination, waiting to correct the papers.

Before they went in, they didn't know what questions would be tested in the palace exam. They didn't know what questions were tested until the completed papers were sent in.

Some have standard answers, and some are subjective questions, but no matter which one they are, they need to be divided into four levels: A, B, C, and D. If you pass, you don’t need to draw a circle.

When the time comes to rank, it depends on who has more circles.

The number of laps is the same, looking at the ratings of A, B, C, and D, reading the test papers...even the handwriting and fonts will become one of the conditions for the evaluation.

The examiners in charge of correcting the papers will spend a few days correcting the papers and double-checking them. When there are no problems, they will disassemble the ranked test papers, check the names, and copy the list...

Finally, send it to Emperor Mingguang.

Along with the list, there were also the top [-] test papers, and the test papers they thought Emperor Ming Guang would ask.

According to the usual practice, the ranking of the top ten is determined by the emperor himself.

Emperor Mingguang looked at the list in front of him, took a look at the thesis written by the candidates, picked out a few that he thought were good, and took them out to discuss with several close officials.

Some people have heard of Emperor Mingguang before, and some are seeing it for the first time, but this is not important, as long as they can enter the list, that is their strength.

As for who will have the last laugh after entering the court, it depends on everyone's own abilities.

A list is nothing but a temporary gain or loss.

Emperor Mingguang didn't have much opinion on this list. After confirming that all the people he wanted were in it, he just slightly adjusted the order of the top twenty, and then finalized the list.

Next, the Golden Luan Hall uploaded the roll call, and the number one scholar paraded the world to know.

After Emperor Mingguang hand-picked the number one scholar, the second place, Tanhua and Jinshi, the number one scholar took all the Jinshi to thank the emperor for his kindness.Before riding through the streets, the upstarts have to change into python robes of various colors specially prepared by the imperial court. After everything is ready, they will pass through the "dragon shed" that was erected before going to watch the list under the guidance of drum music and royal sticks.

Shuntian Fu Yin had been waiting there for a long time. He personally arranged flowers for the number one scholar and put on red silk. The newly born number one scholar rode on the tall horse bestowed by the emperor and walked across Tianjie to show "the emperor's great grace".

There are crowds of people on both sides of the street, and they have long been crowded with spectators.

This year's No. [-] Scholar is very young, so he called many daughters who were hiding behind the window to praise him, and encouraged the maids around him to throw flower branches and sachets, and the atmosphere reached its peak in an instant.

Seeing that Zhuangyuan Lang was smashed all over his body, he was really embarrassed. Uncle Yao who followed behind said: In fact, being in the limelight is not necessarily a good thing!

Look, when you come out, you still look like a human being, just for a while...

Uncle Yao expressed sympathy for Zhuangyuan Lang.

In the imperial study room, Emperor Mingguang raised his eyebrows when he saw Li Wenchong at this time.

"Didn't go to see the excitement?"

Li Wenchong made a salute and got up: "What's the fun, my brother? I don't have any female relatives to join in the fun at home. If I want to go, those who want to pick a son-in-law who is pleasing to the eye will go."

"Would you like to come to the Qionglin Banquet tonight?" In the past, Li Wenchong didn't like to join in the fun. If it wasn't for Emperor Mingguang's repeated invitations, he wouldn't even bother to come for the imperial examination.

But this year, Li Wenchong participated in a lot of excitement, and he did not miss anything in the palace examination and the roll call.

So Emperor Mingguang also asked a question.

"Go, why don't you go? I haven't attended the Qionglin Banquet a few times in all these years. I heard that those great talents at the Qionglin Banquet can also compose poems? It's very lively."

Emperor Mingguang looked at Li Wenchong with a strange expression: "You didn't like to join in the fun before, so tell me, what are you planning?"

"Where is it? Brother Huang, don't slander me."

"Oh! I don't know you yet? Tell me, you came to me at this time...I'm afraid it's not to tell me that you're going to the Qionglin banquet tonight, right?"

Li Wenchong looked serious: "That's it, what else can I do?"

Reminiscent of Li Wenchong's anomalies in the past few months, Emperor Mingguang expressed doubts: "Really?"

"If you insist on saying that I have something to do, in fact... I do have one thing that I want to talk to you about, but I'm afraid that if I say it, it will make you unhappy."

Emperor Mingguang glared at him: "Hmph! Compared with your private affairs, what else can make me unhappy?"

The matter of Li Wenchong's falling in love with an old woman has not yet been resolved. What else makes him more "difficult" than that?
Li Wenchong touched his nose embarrassingly, and said: "Then this time...Brother Huang thinks too much, this time it's none of my business, it's mainly about your sons..."

Emperor Mingguang frowned: "What's wrong with them? Don't tell me, they provoked you too?"

"I'm not recruited, but... haven't you heard the rumors in the capital?"

"What rumor?"

"Junjun Wang is open-minded and has high moral character. After being beaten up by the Yao family, he forgave him graciously..."

Emperor Mingguang looked at Li Wenchong, feeling that he was making trouble.

Sure enough, in the next second he heard Li Wenchong "tsk tsk tsk" a few times, the meaning should not be too obvious.

Even if Emperor Mingguang wanted to pretend to be confused, he had no choice but to stroke his forehead: "Why did you get involved in this matter?"

The king of Jinjun is a dignified prince, but he covets the Yao family in a low voice. Does anyone think there is a ghost when he sees him?
Prince Jin is not stupid, so when he was in the imperial examination last time, he directly put on small shoes for the Yao family, but was blocked by the eldest prince Li Jian.

There were courtiers there at the time, and Emperor Mingguang stopped them in time to keep the two sons from fighting, but the matter did not end here.Afterwards, when Emperor Mingguang went to the harem, he listened to a few concubines.

Obviously, those who want to support the Yao family must belong to the first prince's faction; those who want to step down on the Yao family must belong to the second prince's faction.

As these princes came of age one by one, the struggle between concubines also began, and Emperor Mingguang had no choice but to stop them.

It's just that at ordinary times, everyone just moves secretly, and doesn't make too much noise. If Emperor Mingguang is aware of it, he has no other way but to control the balance as much as possible for the time being.

Which emperor didn't come here when he was young?
If you have the ability, you will be in the position; if you have no ability, you will be a stepping stone for others.

As long as he doesn't violate his bottom line, Emperor Mingguang doesn't mind the "competition" of the princes under him, so he also keeps one eye open and one eye closed for certain actions of King Jin.
