On October 25th, forty-eight people who were ranked Jinshi in the third year of the Dali calendar came to the Ministry of Personnel to prepare for the selection examination.
Only candidates who were on the list and passed the examination were eligible to participate.
You have the qualifications to be an official, but you only have the qualifications to be an official, and you will definitely be able to become an official immediately.
If you fail the selection examination of the Ministry of Personnel, you may only be able to temporarily serve as an assistant to a local official.
The Jinshi gathered at the door, but were stopped by soldiers on guard and told to wait.
After a while, someone came to see them, which puzzled the Jinshi who were qualified to be officials.
Not long after, as expected, someone came out of the Yamen.
When the Jinshi saw it, it was Li Xian, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.
The Jinshi were all surprised, why did Li Xian come in person?
Before the Jinshis could come up with the answer, Li Xian said: "You are all Jinshis who have already been ranked, and you are all people who are already qualified to be officials, but you still need to go through the selection test.
Today's selection test is different from usual.
Unlike everyone, we all line up in three teams.
Our selection location is elsewhere this time.
Come with me."
Li Xian walked in front in a sedan, followed by the Jinshi, and escorted by soldiers on both sides.
Soon, the scholars found themselves at the door of a magnificent mansion.
When they looked up, there was a plaque of the Prince Regent's Palace hanging under the eaves of the mansion.
How did they end up here?
Li Xian saw the expressions of the Jinshi scholars and said, "Don't be surprised.
This time the selection test will be held at the Regent's Palace.
Everyone, please follow me in."
The Jinshi followed Li Xian into the Prince Regent's Mansion with uneasiness and stopped in a courtyard.
Li Xian asked the Jinshi to wait in the courtyard while he went into the main hall alone to report to Zhao Ziliang.
Soon, Du Fu came out with the list of Jinshi candidates and said: "You are all on the list.
Today's election is presided over by the Regent, the Minister of Civil Affairs, and Liang Guogong.
In the words of the Regent, this is also an exam.
Call it an interview.
There is no need to check whether your handwriting is neat or not, nor whether your appearance is correct and handsome.
Next, I will read the names one by one.
The person whose name is read will raise his hand and call out.
The first one is Han Hong. " Han Hong, who was in his thirties, immediately raised his hand and said: "Arrived" "Okay, you come in with me, the others are waiting here."
Du Fu waved, and without saying a word to the other Jinshi, he led Han Hong into the hall.
Walking into the hall, Han Hong saw a majestic-looking young man with a golden crown sitting directly opposite him.
His eyes revealed wisdom and murderous intent.
This gaze made Han Hong feel like he was suddenly He had been stripped naked, and it was as if there was nothing to hide from this person's face.
The only person who can sit in this position is the current regent, but is he the regent?
How could he be so young?
Seeing Han Hong in a daze, Du Fu was worried that he would leave an impolite first impression in front of Zhao Ziliang because of his impoliteness, so he deliberately reminded him, "Han Hong, I haven't met the two examiners yet."
Han Hong came back to his senses and broke into a cold sweat.
He couldn't help cursing in his heart why he lost consciousness at this time.
This was a fatal moment.
He hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Student Han Hong pays homage to the regent."
Zhao Ziliang did not ask how Han Hong knew him.
This was a mentally retarded question.
He raised his hand and said: "Mr.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Han, please introduce yourself first."
"Uh" Han Hong was stunned again.
Zhao Ziliang reminded: "Use the shortest possible words to describe your name, age, where you are from, your family situation, social relationships, past experiences, etc."
This is the so-called interview.
Han Hong was almost stunned again.
He quickly calmed down and said after some words: "The student's surname is Han Minghong, whose surname is Junping.
He is from Nanyang.
He has a wife and a pair of children at home.
His mother is living with him and he has three brothers.
Ranked second.
Student in Tianbao for thirteen years.
After passing the Jinshi title, he returned to his hometown to visit his relatives, but the Anshi Rebellion broke out.
He was later appointed as Secretary-General by Hou Xiyi, the governor of Zizhou.
Later, he entered the court with Lord Hou and came to Chang'an.
He has been working for Lord Hou for the past two years.
After he died of illness, the student lived in Chang'an and never entered the official position again."
Zhao Ziliang looked through Han Hong's file.
Han Hong's self-introduction was roughly the same as the description in the file.
Moreover, he found that there was a poem in the file that was quite familiar, so he couldn't help but read it out: "Zhangtai Liu, the color is green now.
Even if the long strip seems to be hanging down, it should be broken by someone else's hand.
Mr.
Liang, I don't know poetry, but I feel that this poem is good.
You are an expert, can you explain the meaning of this poem to me?"
"Since your Majesty is interested, I will explain something."
Li Xian smiled and began to explain: "This poem describes a pair of men and women who love each other.
After being separated for many years, the man still has a deep love for the woman.
He is worried that Her life and death were in danger, and she was worried that her beauty would wither and be no longer worthy of being looked at, and she was even more worried that she would be robbed and possessed by others.
As far as the old minister knows, this poem was written after Chang'an was recovered, and Master Han sent people back to Chang'an to secretly search for his wife Liu, and brought back this poem.
She is quite accomplished in poetry.
She replied to Master Han with a poem called Yangliu Branch.
Would your Majesty want to hear the content of this poem?"
Zhao Ziliang said: "I would like to hear the details."
Li Xian obviously admired and was familiar with the legendary stories of Han Hong and his wife in the past.
He said: "Willow branches, beautiful festivals.
I hate separation more and more every year, and a leaf blows with the wind and it suddenly announces autumn.
Even if you come, it will be broken.
The meaning of this poem is desolate, and she feels sorry for him She was still deeply affectionate and unforgettable, but she didn't have the slightest doubt about her intention to torture Mr.
Han.
She also deeply blamed herself for losing her virginity, crying and confessing, and her youth was gone.
Even though Jun Lai was already in trouble, it seemed as if all this was hers. ” Zhao Ziliang was also very interested in this legendary story between Han Hong and his wife, and asked: "What happened to Mr.
Han and his wife later?"
It was difficult for Han Hong to tell this past story.
Li Xian said on his behalf: "At that time, in order to avoid the military disaster, Mrs.
Han cut off her long hair and lived in Faling Temple.
After receiving Mr.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Han's letter, she began to tie her hair and look forward to meeting him.
Mr.
Han reunited.
At that time, a general named Shazhali under Ge Shuhan thought that he had some merits and was tyrannical in Chang'an.
He led his troops to loot the French capital.
In the Ling Temple, Mrs.
Han was abducted by Sha Zhali and adopted as his concubine.
Three years ago, Mr.
Han followed Hou Xiyi to the court and learned that Mrs.
Han had been taken away by Sha Zhali.
Dare to offend easily.
Once Mr.
Han and his wife met by chance on the street, Mrs.
Han learned that Mr.
Han had returned to the capital.
Afterwards, Mrs.
Han sent someone to deliver this song "Willow Branch" to Mr.
Han.
Zhao Ziliang said doubtfully: "So Mrs.
Han is still possessed by Sha Zhali."
Li Xian nodded and said, "Yes."
"Where does this Shatala hold any position?"
"It is said that this person is in Chang'an now and is currently the deputy envoy of Fengxiang Army."
Zhao Ziliang was a little angry when he heard this: "The reason why these generals are lawless is the result of the connivance of the imperial court.
Why have no generals in my army dared to be so lawless?
Those generals themselves are barbarians, lacking etiquette and education, and conniving.
The consequence is to make them even more unscrupulous.
It seems that the imperial army cannot do anything unless it is rectified.
Such an army can only bully the common people and let them fight.
As long as the war goes slightly wrong, it will be completely defeated."
Li Xian reminded: "Your Majesty, today we are interviewing Jinshi students.
As for military affairs, we should deal with them separately."
Zhao Ziliang nodded and said to Han Hong: "Mr.
Han, since the king knows about this matter, he will never ignore it.
Regardless of whether you can pass the interview today, tomorrow the king will order Shazhali to send your wife away.
I'll give it back to you.
As for Sha Zhali, she has her own military affairs.
Madam, if you still have feelings for her, you can't dislike her past.
The couple will live a good life in the future, do you understand?"
Han Hong burst into tears immediately, knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, if this student can be reunited with my humble wife, I will fight for your Majesty through fire and water, even if I die."
Zhao Ziliang waved his hand and said with a smile: "You should get up first.
Now you have passed the imperial examination for the second time.
You are worthy of the title of Number One Scholar.
Now the feudal towns are divided.
Many local officials are afraid of the tyranny of the generals in the feudal towns and abandon their offices and run away.

There are people in the court and local governments.
Many officials have It is too corrupt to be used.
The imperial court needs a group of young, energetic, upright officials who dare to speak out and dare to confront the corrupt forces.
If the Tang Dynasty wants to revive and restore the prosperity and glory of the Kaiyuan era, this responsibility falls on you.
It’s on young people” Han Hong immediately said: "Students should remember your Majesty's teachings.
Your Majesty, please look at the students' performance."
"Okay, this is what I like to hear, but I don't have any real action to take it directly.
Now I am officially informing you that you have passed the interview.
You will come to the Regent's Palace in three days to wait for the appointment notice."
"Thank you so much, Your Majesty, thank you so much, Duke Liang" After Han Hong left, Li Xian said to Zhao Ziliang: "This Han Hong is one of the rare talented and learned people in these years.
His wife Liu was a singer at the residence of Prince Li and his grandson.
Han Hong was a guest at the residence of Prince Li and his grandson.
During the banquet, Li Wangsun was secretly in love with the Liu family.
He was also very generous, broad-minded, and not angry.
He not only brought them together, but also paid for their marriage.
There was also a man named Li Duan who was also very famous in Chang'an. , Li Duan's wife is also a singer, named Jing'er.
She is the singer of Guo Ziyi's sixth son Guo Ai.
Li Duan is quite talented.
Every time Guo Ai and Princess Shengping hold a banquet, they will invite Li Duan to be present and compose impromptu poems.
Guo Yan later found out about this and told Li Duan that if he could write a poem about playing the zheng, he would give him the mirror.
Li Duan wrote a poem on the spot and took the mirror back.
Home."
Zhao Ziliang smiled at these gossips and said to Du Fu: "Next one" The next person who walked in was Lu Lun.
Lu Lun had seen Zhao Ziliang and greeted him quickly: "Your Majesty, student Lu Lun is here to greet you."
Zhao Ziliang smiled and said to Li Xian: "On that day when the exam started, Lu Lun was late.
I thought that he might be a talent, so he let him enter the examination room.
Unexpectedly, Lu Lun actually made it on the list, and he was still on the list.
"Second place" Li Xian also smiled and said: "It seems that the king has a sharp eye":
