Chapter 587 Lecture
Wang Pingan grinned and pleaded guilty, and took Di Renjie and Qiu Tingxuan to the gate of the palace to meet Changsun Wuji.Changsun Wuji and Ma Zhou Chu Suiliang were standing at the front of the group of officials, chatting and gossiping.

In fact, Changsun Wuji has been paying attention to Li Ke and Wang Ping'an, and seeing them talking over there makes him very unhappy.This Li Ke really hit the nail on the head, waiting for a while to open the palace door, but also to get close to Wang Ping'an and the others, it's really outrageous!
Seeing Wang Ping'an and the others coming, Changsun Wuji asked directly: "What did you say just now?"

In the two teams of Changsun Wuji and Li Ke, since you have chosen a team and stepped in, you have to look like a member of the team.Wang Pingan didn't hide anything, he said: "Returning to Master Changsun, His Royal Highness Wu Wang told us just now that we should come to him if we have any difficulties, he will definitely help, and he will go to his house as an official to discuss how to help. The officer refused."

Ma Zhouqi said: "You refused, so you are not afraid of offending him? Looking at him, he seems very angry!" He looked at Li Ke, Li Ke's face was as ugly as it is now, obviously moved angry.

Di Renjie said: "Actually, the prince didn't refuse on the spot. He just said that he asked his family's housekeeper to be a groom. After that, His Royal Highness Wu Wang said nothing and became angry."

Changsun Wuji and the others were all taken aback, and asked in unison: "What's the matter with the butler?"

After the question was finished, they all chattered in unison, and they all understood what was going on.They are all treacherous and cunning people, so it is impossible for them not to understand the meaning of the words.In fact, this kind of thing was done a long time ago, when Changsun Wuji was still fighting with the former prince Li Jiancheng, he also did it, and he succeeded.
Several prime ministers looked at me and I looked at you, and suddenly laughed loudly, shaking their heads, thinking in their hearts: "This Li Ke is too useless, it only took a few days to send spies to Wang Ping'an's house." , and was discovered. Did he check the spy before sending someone? He couldn't just find someone and send him there!

The Chengtian Gate opened, and the ministers filed in and went to the main hall.The ministers went directly into the main hall, while the newly-passed scholars lined up at the steps outside the hall. The Jinshi department was in the first row, followed by the Mingjing department, and then the miscellaneous subjects were arranged in order.

At three quarters of the hour, the bells and drums rang, and Li Shimin came out from the apse. After sitting on the dragon table, the Grand Court officially began.The first thing, of course, is to summon the new scholars.Shi Aiguo shouted loudly: "Xuan Jinshi Ke Wenqicai has an audience with His Majesty!"

The little eunuchs shouted one after another, spreading the news to the palace.

Wen Qicai is No. 3 in Jinshi subjects. He didn't pass the exam by taking care of him, but he actually got No. 3 by writing articles. In terms of book skills, he is better than Di Renjie and Qiu Tingxuan. A scholar who is good at a high position by reading.It's just a pity that compared with good reading and hard relationship, hard relationship is more popular, not only in the early Tang Dynasty, but also in every dynasty!
Wen Qicai was in his thirties, with good features, dressed in black, with a reserved look on his face. When his name was called, he shivered and thought to himself: "Why don't you call him No.1 and No.2? My No.3?"

He turned his head to look at Di Renjie and Qiu Tingxuan, only to find that everyone was looking at him now, and he became even more nervous. He really didn't know how he got the emperor's attention, and he was the first to summon him.

Wen Qicai lifted up his skirt, went up the steps and entered the main hall, knelt down at the place next to the threshold, and shouted long live.

Li Shimin raised his hand and said, "Wen Aiqing is exempt from the ceremony. I'll let you read the list of scholars in this department!"

Shi Zhongchen took a roll of yellow silk, walked up to him, handed it to him, and said with a smile: "Recite in correct tone, louder, so that everyone can hear it!"

Wen Qicai took Huang Ling and knelt on the ground thinking about it, but Shi Zhongchen said, "Stand up and go to the steps outside. This is a roll call, and you want to read it to your contemporaries!"

Only then did Wen Qicai realize that it turned out that he was asked to roll his name, which was a great honor.However, he doesn't have any big backing, how could he leave such a show of face to himself!

Chu Suiliang looked at Wen Qicai and thought to himself: "This old man can be regarded as compensating you. If it weren't for Wang Ping'an's relationship, I'm afraid you should be the first in Jinke!"

It was his suggestion to Li Shimin to ask Wen Qicai to be named. He felt sorry for Wen Qicai and wanted to make up for it.Di Renjie did a good job, but that doesn't necessarily depend on his own ability, and Qiu Tingxuan has no problem in being a Jinshi, and if he wants to be No.2, it is not his own ability, it is Wang Ping'an's ability!
It's a pity that this literary genius has picked up. Judging from his appearance, it doesn't look like he has studied hard for ten years, but he may be able to make progress in twenty years.Let him have a good time in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and the new scholars, and he is worthy of him!

Wen Qicai was so excited that his whole body trembled. Originally, he still had grievances in his heart against Di Renjie and Qiu Tingxuan, but now that little grievances were thrown away, and he was content.People need face, trees need bark, and he has already earned a lot of face!

Standing on the steps, Wen Qicai read out the names of the scholars aloud, and the scholars whose names were read went up the steps one by one, entered the hall and knelt down, Di Renjie and Qiu Tingxuan were side by side, kneeling in the first row, at the front.After the roll call was over, Wen Qicai also entered the hall and knelt down behind Di Renjie.

According to the usual practice, Li Shimin would naturally encourage the scholars to serve the court and be loyal to him.After the emperor finished speaking, Changsun Wuji went out of work and began to lecture.

Changsun Wuji's first sentence was not pleasant.He said: "There is a saying among the people that a scholar who is useless is a scholar, do you think this is true?"

When the scholars heard this, their expressions became ugly. Today is their day of great joy, and they will be appointed as officials soon. What is the purpose of studying? Isn't it just for today.But the dignified prime minister, why is this the first sentence?Useless is a scholar, is it possible that he is not a scholar when he grows up to Sun Xiangye?

Among all the scholars, only Di Renjie had a different expression from everyone else. He suddenly realized that the expression on his face was like this. After a long time, the folks have this common saying!

Everyone else looked ugly, except Di Renjie, who naturally attracted the attention of the ministers.The ministers all thought in their hearts: "This Di Renjie is a bit stupid, but he has such an expression, as if he just realized that he is nothing today!"

Changsun Wuji glanced at Di Renjie, and said again: "Looking at your appearance, you must not be convinced in your heart. If you are not convinced, then you have to do something to make others obey. You need to do your job well, for the country, for the emperor, for the sake of you." The people of the Li people do more things, so that people will be convinced, otherwise, what is the use of the imperial court raising you bastards, it is a waste of rice and grain!"

When the scholars heard this, they felt even more unhappy. How come we are trash? What if the trash can kneel here now, waiting to be dispatched?
Only Di Renjie showed great approval again on his face. It turns out that if you want to not be a waste, you have to do things well!
Wang Pingan stood in the court class, looked at Di Renjie, and thought: "Don't worry, others don't feel it, but Changsun Wuji likes you like this!"

Changsun Wuji said again: "However, working hard is not enough. I am also very worried about your character and truth. Although all of you can write poems and articles, if you read more books about sages, you will definitely become sages." Is it? That may not be true!"

Having said that, he looked at Wang Ping'an and said, "Wang Ping'an, you are the deputy chief examiner of the undergraduate course. If these people can be selected, you have won your favor. Now tell me, what do ordinary people say about the quality of scholars? Tell them and let them learn from it!"

Wang Pingan grinned, I am the deputy chief examiner, but Chu Suiliang is still the chief examiner, why not let him speak?You must let me do things that offend others!

However, Shangguan let you offend people, it means that Shangguan trusts you, thinks highly of you, and gives you a chance to show off, if you don't come out to offend people, then you don't know how to praise!

Wang Ping'an has always been very flattering, he said hastily: "The common people often say...what are you talking about, they say that they are righteous and half-slaying dogs, and they are all scholars who have a heart."

All the scholars looked at him and thought, "Don't swear in person! How can ordinary people say such fierce words?"

Changsun Wuji nodded and said: "You've heard it all, the people's comments on you are not good! How can they re-evaluate you and say that you are not heartless people? Then you have to be loyal to the country, loyalty is the main thing, and the next Love the common people, shepherd the common people, understand?"

The scholars lowered their heads and said in unison: "Students understand!"

Only Di Renjie slowed everyone down. First, he was full of face. He wanted to let the people say good things about him, so he had to do this. Then he said that the students understood, and he was a little slower than other scholars.

But only a little bit, all the ministers' attention was focused on him again, and they all thought: "It seems that just now, only this Di Renjie listened carefully, and he felt something in his heart. I think he is the one who can carefully understand the meaning of the Shangguan. Man, he will definitely be a good official in the future, at least he will do what the superior officer asks him to do seriously!"

Even Li Shimin thought: "This Di Renjie is not bad, Wang Ping'an is still very discerning!"

Changsun Wuji was even more satisfied. Although there were a lot of scholars in this department, this Di Renjie was still quite good-looking and worth cultivating!
After the big stick is knocked out, it's time to eat the sweet dates.Changsun Wuji said again: "The imperial court is employing people, so the official positions assigned to you this time are higher than before, which is not in line with your real abilities. You should be grateful and do well the tasks assigned to you. Errand!"

The scholars immediately became happy, no matter how hard they scolded them, as long as the officials gave them a big reward, everyone's faces showed joy!

Di Renjie was kneeling in front of him. The scholars couldn't see his expression, but the ministers could. This time, everyone focused on Di Renjie's face, wanting to see his reaction!
Amidst all the joy, only Di Renjie's face was the same, and then he showed a serious expression. It seemed that he understood that even if he got a higher official position, it was still when the imperial court was employing people, and he had to Do things well, so that you can live up to the court's trust in him!
Everyone nodded together, this Di Renjie is good, very good, this appearance is right, Wang Ping'an has vision!
