In order to compensate Taifu Zhu, the emperor gave the post of commander of the Beijing Guards to Zhu Jincheng, the second son of Zhu's family.
Su Yizhao had heard Zhu Jincheng's name before. The Zhu family were all literati, but when he was thirteen years old, this son suddenly abandoned literature and embraced martial arts. He spent all day wielding swords and guns. He was considered an anomaly in the Zhu family.
It seems that Zhu Yue complained to the emperor, so the emperor agreed to the job.
The commander of the Jingwei guarded the capital, guarded the palace, and even protected the safety of the emperor.
Su Yizhao and Mr. Su analyzed that Mr. Zhu's purpose may be to insert people from the Zhu family into the palace.
As for the purpose, this is unknown. Anyway, there is always his intention in doing this.
After she returned to Beijing after taking the county examination, Mrs. Su once asked her what she would choose if she were Meng Lingxi.
Her answer at that time was to promise Mrs. Zhu.
After all, Taifu Zhu didn't know that Meng Lingxi had been favored by the chief minister. If Meng Lingxi really became Taifu Zhu's disciple, it would be easier to win over Zhu in the future.
As for the chief assistant, Meng has been tied to the chief assistant for a long time anyway. Is the chief assistant still afraid that the duck that hits his mouth will fly away?
But after Zhu Jincheng got the job of commanding Qianshi, Su Yizhao suddenly realized.
Perhaps Zhu Yue had known about the relationship between Meng and his chief minister for a long time.
It would be inappropriate for Meng Lingxi to join Taifu Zhu's family again.
As for the chief assistant personally recruiting people, I'm afraid he has his own considerations.
In the final analysis, I still know very little about the trends in the DPRK, and my thinking is somewhat limited.
And she guessed that Zhu Yue would make some moves in the future. After all, it was just an errand. Although many people wanted to compete for this errand, there was no need to go around in such a big circle.
Unexpectedly, more than two years later, Zhu Yue would have no follow-up.
Su Yizhao was immersed in his own thoughts and completely ignored the comments on the side, but Wan Sheng on the side was filled with indignation.
It's just that they didn't mention her by name, and they didn't mention a word about Su Yizhao, but every word was related to Su Yizhao, which was really annoying, but it was hard to go forward to refute.
"These people are used to flattering others and suppressing others." Wan Sheng snorted coldly.
Su Yijue smiled and said, "Everyone is like this, so why should you care?"
Famous teacher? With Su Yizhao's intelligence, why does he need the guidance of a famous teacher? As for connections, being tied to the chief assistant may not be a good thing.
It rained heavily all night, but fortunately it stopped before Su Yizhao got up and prepared to enter the dormitory.
Outside the house, there were branches blown down by the storm everywhere, and the leaves were also blown to the ground by the strong wind, making the courtyard look desolate.
A gust of wind blew, and Su Yizhao felt the coolness, and couldn't help but shiver.
The rain after autumn becomes colder and colder.
Fortunately, she had added two extra pieces of unlined clothing inside her outer robe, and there were still a few pieces in the storage space. She could still cover them with thin quilts when it was cold at night.
Many candidates are shrinking their necks because they are not fully prepared for these.
Everyone didn't expect that at this time two years ago, the weather was still very hot, but they didn't expect it to be so cold this year.
Some people regret not wearing more layers and can’t help but worry whether it will get colder next time.
Taking the number plate, Su Yizhao came to a new dormitory.
To her, as long as she doesn't get a bad number, everything else doesn't matter.
The smell of bad numbers makes people almost faint, so why bother to answer the test? Su Yizhao has great sympathy for the candidates who got the bad numbers.
The curtains were soaked by the rain, and the wooden boards in the dormitory were not spared either.
Su Yizhao had no choice but to wipe the board with a cloth, and then took out a piece of his clothes and put it on the board.
Put the thin quilt in a dry place. The dormitory is relatively damp, making the thin quilt smell heavier than before.
A small clay stove is used to dispel moisture and coldness in the dormitory.
Anyway, she had put a lot of daily necessities in the storage space before, and she also had charcoal, so she wasn't worried about not having enough.
The moisture in the dormitory made Su Yizhao and many candidates at a loss as to what to do. Some dormitories had puddles of water at their feet, and they had nowhere to step.
However, the scientific examination still had to continue. Su Yizhao copied down the questions, and after eating, he calmed down and thought about it.
The second test uses the Five Classics together with the imperial edict, judgment, table, and imperial edict, and the requirement is more than three hundred words.
Su Yizhao first looked at the topic and said, "The saint is full of moral principles and virtues."
She thought for a moment and determined that this sentence did not come from the Four Books and Five Classics, but was related to the Analects of Confucius and derived from it.
It is said that this question exceeds the outline, but it does not exceed the outline. However, this is the first time that Su Yizhao has encountered a question other than the Four Books and Five Classics.
Fortunately, this question was easy for her.
After thinking for a moment, she took up her pen and wrote: "The argument goes: Those who have great morals have difficulty in making famous quotes."
Corresponding to the derived source "The Analects of Confucius", this is the point.
This question took some effort. After Su Yizhao finished copying it, he looked at the following questions.
"It is proposed that Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty would meet with the scholars Baihu to discuss the similarities and differences of the Five Classics."
This question dates from the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, when Confucianism gradually became the pillar of the Han Dynasty’s monarchical governance.
However, the Confucian schools at that time had different inheritances and were not unified, so Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty held the "Shiquge Conference" in Baihu Temple. In order to unify the Confucian schools and formally establish the official ruling ideology.
Su Yizhao thought of the allusion at that time, and then thought about it before he started writing.
Cao Jincheng glanced at the dormitory that was quite close to him and couldn't sit still.
He got up and walked to the dormitory in the middle row. From a distance, he saw the young man writing with great concentration and concentration.
He moved his feet and then walked in that direction.
Su Yizhao was thinking about the follow-up to the article at the moment. How could he pay attention to Cao Jincheng's arrival?
Naturally, Cao Jincheng couldn't disturb her. He just stood in front of her and took a look. He found that Su Yizhao had already written the imperial edict and couldn't help but nod his head.
...
"Your Highness! The fifth prince has received the secret order and went to Beiyuan Mansion!"
In the dark study room, a guard in mysterious clothes reported to the man sitting behind the desk.
The man was silent for a long time, then snorted coldly.
"My father trusts him and lets him handle such a big thing. But the fifth child is greedy for money. What can he accomplish?"
The man's voice was a little hoarse, "Hold the lamp!"
The guard immediately took out the fire stick and stepped forward to light the palace lantern.
The palace lanterns lit up, and the darkness was instantly driven away from the room.
The man glanced at the four-clawed python robe on his body, his eyes dark and unclear.
"The Fourth Brother has rested for a long time." He sighed leisurely, "The grandson of the eldest son of the Fuguo Palace is not going to marry the Crown Prince's wife's natal cousin. It is said that the wedding is coming soon. The Fourth Brother is the cousin.
Brothers, it’s not a bad idea to go and join in the fun.”
He stood up and looked out the window, "Go and tell the fourth child that iron ore has been discovered in Beiyuan Mansion."
"Yes!" The guard in Xuanyi took the order and immediately left the study.
"It's better to muddy the water!" He looked at the python robe on his body again, and a sneer appeared on his pale face.
"Everyone wants to be the prince, but is it so easy to get the crown prince position?"
But then he thought of something, and his expression suddenly changed.
