Miss Fortune: Is the regent ready for today?

Sixteen years ago, the day Chang Yinglian first met Yin Jielin was the Mid-Autumn Festival.

On August 15th, the full moon state banquet in Beijing was held as usual in the Liusi Building, and the outside of the building was also crowded.

She still clearly remembers that the autumn palace notice was chosen during the Mid-Autumn Festival that year, and the wooden notice frame was placed outside Liusi Building. She had studied hard for many years and finally participated in the autumn palace, and she was excited. Regardless of people rubbing shoulders with each other, she squeezed into the crowd, but someone stepped on her left shoe.

Her snow-white stockings rubbed against the ground. Someone with malicious intentions pushed her, and she flew out of the crowd and fell to the ground with a plop. The soles of her socks were already worn black. She subconsciously pulled her feet back, and her face felt hot. .

No matter how she was, she was still a woman who had not left the government. How could she appear outside a state banquet in such disheveled clothes?
Looking down the crowd, she saw her shoes, which were being stepped on by an unknown person. There seemed to be water flowing on her forehead. Was it sweat? It's strange, she's not hot either? She raised her hand and touched it. Scarlet blood stained her four fingers, which frightened her.

After realizing it later, she felt pain and wanted to cover the blood with her sleeves, but found that her sleeves were full of dust and too dirty.

"Are you okay?" The young man's concerned voice came from above.

Chang Yinglian frowned and looked around, and saw a young man in dark green embroidered with magnolia leaves coming towards her. The handkerchief was embroidered with green bamboos, which stood at the corner of the handkerchief. She suddenly felt unbearable, afraid that His own blood stains that clean place.

"Wipe it, it will hurt if it gets into your eyes. How can you find your name on the list if you can't see clearly?" The gentle Yin Jielin gave her a reason that she couldn't refuse.

"Many... many thanks, sir." Chang Yinglian hurriedly took the handkerchief and covered the wound caused by the fall. Her heart was beating like a drum. It was unclear whether it was because of embarrassment or something else.

Yin Jielin looked at the guard who was following her to help her up. He focused on her foot without shoes and sighed slightly: "It's so rude. I should have put up more notice boards if I had known, to avoid crowding and hurting you." You lost your shoes. How about I give you a pair later? Don’t refuse. It’s because of my poor thinking. I should bear the responsibility and compensate you for the loss.”

Chang Yinglian waved her hands sheepishly, "No, no need, I'll just buy it myself, don't bother me!"

"It's okay," Yin Jielin comforted, and then asked: "What's your name? I summarized the list of this year's list. I still have some impressions, why don't you sign up? I'll think about it carefully. Is there anyone on the list? Your name?"

Chang Yinglian was suspicious, "Who are you?"

"Yin Jielin." Mr. Moyi raised his lips gently, "I was appointed prime minister not long ago and will preside over this year's imperial examination."

There was no arrogance on his face, nor the scorn of a high-ranking person. The smile at the corner of his mouth was so friendly. This was the first time Chang Yinglian had seen such a person in a long time in Beijing.

Yin Jielin, she had heard of him more than once, the young prime minister of Daliang, the only son of the Yin family, one of the five nobles.

Was he such a gentle and gentle gentleman?
She smiled back, but bowed her head respectfully, "I've met Prime Minister Yin. My name is Chang Yinglian. Please give me some advice." "Are you Chang Yinglian?" Yin Jielin seemed surprised when he heard her name. Slightly suppressed, the arc of his smile became wider, "I am very impressed by you. Your literary theory is generous and your opinions are good, especially those few sentences about the former Huan Yu Gong: Talented people harm the country and benefit the family. A wise man is not a wise man. A foolish man protects his family and his country, but he is not a foolish man."

Chang Yinglian was flattered by the praise. When she was so happy, she forgot that she still had a wound on her forehead. She suddenly moved forward and wanted to clasp her fists in thanks, but she pulled at the wound and blood dripped down again. The snow-white veil was soaked with red. She was in the examination room. The above article was brilliant, but she didn't know what to say at this moment: "Does the Prime Minister really miss Mr. Huan Yu that much?" After she finished speaking, she immediately realized that what she said was inappropriate, but she couldn't take it back no matter what she said. .

Fortunately, Yin Jielin did not change his face. He lowered his eyes and smiled, and only said: "Forefathers are buried in peace, so we should not mention it again. But today I meet a close friend, and mountains and rivers are rare. I hope that Daliang will be passed down from generation to generation, and the country will continue to be peaceful, and there will be no more A person like Huan Yugong in the previous dynasty. You are a talented person in Daliang. You must work hard for this in the future and be a talented person who protects the country and the people. "

Chang Yinglian smiled foolishly, breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and replied: "Yes, I will definitely live up to the expectations of the prime minister."

The autumn wind gradually dispersed the crowd gathered in front of the notice, and a call came from the hall, asking for Yin Jielin's name.

The young prime minister, who was wearing a dark green background with magnolias in full bloom, smiled warmly at her: "Congratulations, Chang Yinglian, you are the first in this palace examination and the top scholar in the imperial examination. From now on, we will be colleagues." Then he turned around. , and did not forget to ask the guards to take her to buy new shoes.

The words stopped suddenly, and in the boundless darkness, the scene that had been dusted sixteen years ago seemed to unfold before Chang Yinglian's eyes again. She told Yin Luo in an extremely slow tone: "When I was in Bianzhou, I was a concubine, but I didn't I was willing to get involved in the family fight. When my mother was bullied, I could only read books to relieve my sadness. I vowed to leave the Chang family and Bianzhou, so I went to take the imperial examination. Unexpectedly... I later became an official in Shangjing. , but as a man, the Chang family did not recognize me as the number one scholar, and forced my mother to death. A concubine was not allowed to be included in the family tree, and my official position was small. In those years, I was always stepped on. "

Yin Luo took a deep breath, and the sound of his long breathing made the atmosphere in the room seem even more depressing.

The ethereal and hoarse female voice sounded slightly crying, but also contained a smile: "Only your father, Yin Xiangjielin, has always been the same to me. He is the head of hundreds of officials, but he is willing to be a child like me." The young minister and deputy envoys drank tea together and discussed policies. I hate the unfairness of this world! But every time I cry, Prime Minister Yin always says that if I feel it is unfair, I will help justice so that the books I have read will not be in vain. "

"So, you proposed reforming the imperial examination system in Daliang and want to seek justice for the poor students?"

"Yes." Chang Yinglian closed her eyes and did not shed tears after all. Perhaps she had cried too many times in the past ten years and could no longer shed tears. "I am a concubine from a noble family, and my life is like fire." Moxibustion, I thought, how miserable are the children of the common people who have no family support? The imperial examination system should not be a competition between the rich and powerful, but should benefit the people all over the world. I want to completely create a bright road! "

Yin Luo felt respectful, but she didn't want to show it. She has always been eccentric. She clearly recognized Chang Yinglian's actions, but her words were sarcastic: "It's hard for a small fly to shake a big tree. It's just that you don't know what you can do."

Chang Yinglian sneered, wondering if she was laughing at herself.

The room fell into silence, and the sound of fighting outside the courtyard could be heard so quietly. The night was so long that even if you opened your eyes, you couldn't see anything. It was like walking through a windy and deep valley blindfolded, which made people feel panicked for no reason.

"But I didn't lose because of the reform of the imperial examination system! I lost because I added the sentence 'women should be equal to men at the end of the memorial, be able to take exams and be officials'!"
