"Female Ben, how is Xiao Yu's illness? In the Fude Palace, several monarchs and ministers were cursing their nephew. Suddenly Lu Zhaoci raised his head and asked.

"I heard from the imperial doctor that I'm afraid I won't survive this summer." Feng Wenwen said quietly. It's already the summer of the second year of Zhenguan. Many things happened in the first year of Zhenguan, and the world was at peace. However, many people died.

, General Huaihua, Gan Chong, the second disciple of the current Emperor Zhenguan, was sentenced to death. Then Wang Junmi, the governor of Yangzhou who had returned from suppressing the rebellion, also fell seriously ill and died suddenly on his way back to Beijing. The deaths of the two generals shocked the government and the public.

A shadow was cast among the ministers. On the contrary, as for the death of King Wu Du Fuwei, it did not attract too much attention from others. Such people will die sooner or later.

"The first year of Longwu, the first year of Zhenguan, and the second year of Zhenguan. The period of competition is about to begin again, but Xiao Yu fell ill." Lu Zhaoci threw away the ink pen in his hand and said lightly.

"Your Majesty, there are countless officials in the court, and there are countless talented people. Are you still worried that you can't find a suitable person to be the examiner?" Master Cui Ren said with slight dissatisfaction: "Although Xiao Yu is an important minister of the country, in the end

He is old, and some things should be done by young people. "Your Majesty, I have someone who can give it a try." Changsun Wuji said with his hand.

"Oh! Who is it?" Lu Zhaoci asked in surprise.

"Sun Wuji, the current Chief Assistant Examiner, said with a smile: "He was a one-man deputy examiner back then. It should be possible to be the examiner at this time."

"Wen Wen is busy with state affairs, well, that's fine! Wen Wen, you will be the chief examiner! Let Yu Shinan and Zhu Liang help you!" Lu Zhaoci glanced at Wen Wen and nodded.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this Zhu Liang is dying. He is also old. Being a Minister of Rites is already a blur. Your Majesty, you'd better replace him with another one!" Master Cui Ren said again.

"Then his son Zhu Suiliang! Lian knows that this man is scholarly and sincerely loves Lian. If a bird cares about others, he loves him. Let him be the deputy examiner!" Lu Zhaoci nodded and said.

After hearing this, his eyes darkened. As the imperial examination progressed, those who took the imperial examination for the first time have now been promoted to governors, and the lowest is the magistrate of Shangxian County. From this point of view, the promotion of national officials in the future,

Most of them take the imperial examination as the first condition.

"Your Majesty, there are some family members outside the palace, and they say they have something important to ask. Qin Jiudao, the newly appointed general manager of the palace, said cautiously.

"Wen Wen, you go back first!" Lu Zhaoci waved his hand and said: "But I heard about Lian, today it's your turn to teach the princes of Lian, don't be lazy in the afternoon!"

"I have remembered it," Ji Wenwen quickly responded.

"The imperial examination is approaching. Could it be that at this time, Master Ju has any relatives in the future?" Cui Renshi rolled his eyes and said pretending not to care.

"It seems that I have never heard that my lord has any relatives coming!" Fang Xuanling thought for a moment. He shook his head and said: "It has been a long time since I have held the lord in charge of the country. He still knows the rules of avoiding suspicion.

"Ahem, Cui Renshi also showed a hint of embarrassment on his face, but he stopped talking.

Outside the palace, Ben Wenwen looked solemn. His family rules were very strict. When he was handling political affairs in the palace, he could not be disturbed unless it was a big deal. Although he was a minister, Emperor Zhenguan trusted him very much.

He, but he has always abided by his duties and was loyal to his duties. Because of this, he has always been the chief assistant of Xuande Palace. But at this time, his family actually sent someone to urge him to return to the palace. This shows the importance of this matter and he has no choice but to do so.

I had to leave the palace.

"Hey! Who are you? Why haven't I seen you in my house?" Ben Wenwen had just left the palace. He saw an unknown servant standing next to his carriage. A look of suspicion appeared on his face, and he hurriedly

asked.

"Sir, my master is critically ill and I would like to ask you to leave." The servant looked anxious and said goodbye nervously.

"Who is your master?" Jiwen asked again.

"Song Guogong, Situ Xiao Yu, Mr. Xiao knows me." The servant didn't dare to hide it and said quickly.

"What is supposed to come is coming. Hey, Mr. Xiao, why are you bothering?" Juwen sighed. He waved his hand and said, "Get in!" After saying that, he got on his carriage, and the man named

He didn't dare to be careless and quickly led the carriage towards Xiao Yu's mansion.

Within a moment, the carriage stopped. Apparently it had arrived at Xiao Yu's house. I thought about it for a moment before getting out of the car. Suddenly I saw a gorgeous carriage outside Xiao Yu's house, with a faint golden phoenix.

It appeared on it, surrounded by golden armored guards, and a palace lady holding a lantern stood on one side. It was obviously a palace object. His face changed as he raised the text, and he quickly asked: "Which nobleman in the palace owns this carriage?"...

"Replying to your lord, all the servants of Concubine Jing said quickly.

"It's not good to lift text. His expression suddenly changed drastically, and he turned around and left.

"Student Lu Ke pays homage to the teacher." At this time, a childish voice suddenly came from behind, but Shan Shu, a five- or six-year-old man with pink makeup and beautiful face, stood on the steps in front of the door in astonishment and said with his hands raised.

Ben Benben looked bitter. The child in front of him was Lu Ke, who was recently named King of Shu. Speaking of which, several of Lu Zhaoci's children were studying together. Ben Benwen also surrendered to his family every seven days.

It’s a lesson for all the princes. This title of teacher is also okay. However, this text knows that he cannot bear this title. He cannot accept this title. But at this time, there is no way.

"I pay my respects to His Highness the King of Shu." Juwen said with a wry smile: "I didn't expect His Highness to be here.

"Master Xiao is seriously ill, and his disciples and his mother and concubine came to visit him." Lu Ke, the king of Shu, was indeed very smart. He knew how to respect his teachers at a young age. Although he knew what Ben Wenwen was thinking, he was still very respectful, which made Ben Wenwen happy again.

And helpless. But don’t know what to do?

"It turns out that Concubine Jing is also here." The bitter smile on Feng Wenwen's face became even more intense. Now he finally knew why Xiao Yu was so anxious to find him. However, he didn't expect that this Mr. Xiao,

Even Concubine Jing and Shu King Lu Ke were notified, and they couldn't leave even if they wanted to.

"Sir, please." Lu Ke stretched out his hand like an adult and made a gesture of invitation, as if this Xiao Mansion was a separate courtyard of his own home.

"Your Highness, King of Shu, please come first." This text is deeply trusted by Sheng Zhaoci, but he also knows how to abide by the way of a minister. Although the King of Shu, Lu Ke, is young, he is the son of an emperor, with the blood of dragon and phoenix. Naturally, he will not follow the text.

It's good to be able to support him in front of him.

"Sir, please!" Lu Ke rolled his eyes, and immediately stepped forward to hold the right hand holding the text. The two walked towards the house, but they did not distinguish between the front and the left. Xiao Yu nodded repeatedly, no wonder everyone in the court praised him.

Lu Ke is smart and smart, but he is extraordinary at first glance. His talent is far above that of Jiangxia County Prince Lu Chengsi, and he is also a leader among the clan members. Although he did not mention the prince by name, the implication is that he is.

It's nothing more than a prince.

"I thank you, Your Highness." The tea text was not pretentious, and he allowed Lu Ke to hold his right hand. The two of them entered Xiao Yu's mansion together.

Xiao Yu's mansion is very large, but it has more of Jiangnan characteristics, with pavilions and pavilions in an orderly manner. The mountains and rivers are crisscrossed, emphasizing the gentleness of water. It is in harmony with the surrounding environment, and people feel like they are in a water town in the south of the Yangtze River.

Although it is midsummer, it is very cool here. This has a lot to do with Xiao Yu's origin.

After passing several waterside pavilions, we arrived at Xiao Yu's room. Before Feng Wenwen entered, he smelled a strong smell of Chinese herbal medicine, and faintly heard Xiao Yu's coughs. Feng Wenwen frowned.

, it seems that Xiao Yu’s body really doesn’t believe it anymore.

"I'm going to pay homage to Concubine Jing." After Feng Wen first met Concubine Jing Yang Ning'er, he saluted Xiao Yu who was lying on the bed and said, "I'm going to pay homage to Senior Xiao with this text." But he didn't use his official position.

Commensurate. As long as people in official circles understand that since it is called this, the implication is not to discuss official matters.

It's a pity that Cen Wenwen, a guy with so much wisdom and almost a demon, made a miscalculation this time. Who is Xiao Yu? An old bureaucrat who has experienced many ups and downs in the officialdom. More importantly, he is now critically ill. I don't know when.

I'm going to see the King of Hell. At this time, do you still need some dignity?

"If Master Feng can come, I will die in peace." Xiao Yu's pale face showed a hint of rosy, pointing at Lu Ke and said: "Master Feng, what do you think of the King of Shu?"

Wen Wenwen secretly groaned in his heart after hearing this, but he had no choice but to smile bitterly and said: "His Royal Highness the King of Shu is very talented and handsome at a young age. He is so outstanding and will definitely be extraordinary in the future. He is worthy of being the blood of two generations of emperors, and cannot be compared with ordinary people."

of."

"It's good, but there is no guidance from a famous teacher!" Concubine Jing on the side, Yang Ning'er, showed a hint of bitterness on her face and said, "No matter how smart Xianyu is, if he doesn't have the guidance of a famous teacher, he still won't be able to become a big success in the future.

Although there are many talents in the world today, famous teachers are hard to find!"

"Your Majesty, isn't there the one in front of you?" Xiao Yu said with a smile: "Master Ju is the number one scholar in our dynasty. With Master Feng here, do you still need to look for a teacher everywhere?"

"This master pays attention to state affairs every day, how can he agree to teach Ke'er!" Yang Ning'er sighed deeply.

"Master Feng is a famous scholar from Jiangzuo. Just a little advice will be enough for His Highness the King of Shu to benefit a lot." Xiao Yu said to the text: "My lord, what do you think?"

"This introduction?" Ben Wenwen was secretly sad in his heart. He didn't expect that he would be in this situation. This kind of thing would actually happen. He didn't know what to do, and his humble face suddenly turned red.
