Taiji Hall on the court meeting, this day is the second day of the list, the emperor issued an order to summon the first 100 new talents into the hall.Of course, the purpose of this imperial examination is to use talents in various places on a large scale, and there are far more than 100 people on the list, but the emperor has summoned 100 people enough.In fact, only the top ten or even the top three had the opportunity to say a word to the emperor, and the others just admired the majesty of the Son of Heaven and bathed in the emperor's grace.At the gate of the palace, Du Shaoqing rode a horse, Xiao Xuanxuan was dressed as a little Confucian boy, and everyone would think that he was a cute little boy from a distance, but he sat down and rode a tiger a little mismatched, and the tiger was either equipped with armor or women's clothing, because everyone in Chang'an City knew that the tiger was the special mount of the little princess."
The last general has seen the concubine, are you also here to attend the court meeting today?
Who is this little boy?
”The palace gate guard saluted Du Shaoqing and asked.Before Du Shaoqing could speak, Xiao Xuanxuan had already taken the lead in speaking, and greeted the guard warmly: "Deputy General Uncle Wang, I'm not a little boy, I'm a little princess, don't you recognize it?"
”"Huh?
Little princess?
How do you dress like this?
The last general was dazzled for a while and really didn't recognize it.,The two of you hurry up and please.。
”Vice Admiral Wang said respectfully."
Hehe, isn't it the imperial examination today to release the list and reward, I am dressed to receive the award, otherwise I am afraid that they will deny me and pretend not to recognize me."
Xiao Xuanxuan said proudly.The guard was dumbfounded and said, "Receiving the award?
It's a reward today, yes, what reward are you going to receive?
You didn't participate, wouldn't you be a little princess, and if you want to pass on the boy's clothes, you will pretend to be a candidate on the list, right?
That's not good, the scientific expedition is over, everyone knows you, so" Xiao Xuanxuan said with a smile: "That's not necessarily, Uncle Wang wants us to gamble, if my grandfather rewards me, how about you invite me to drink?"
If I lose, I invite you to have a big meal with all the uncles at the door today" Xiao Xuanxuan didn't finish speaking, and was directly knocked on the head by her father Du Shaoqing, "What drinking?"
Do you drink?
Your Uncle Wang is an adult, how can he gamble with you as a child?
What nonsense.If you mention the bet again, be careful that your mother knows. ”Xiao Xuanxuan grimaced and retracted her head.Du Shaoqing explained: "General Wang, don't be fooled by her, this scientific examination Xuanxuan is pretending to be a boy to take the exam, and the pseudonym Didi is her, if we don't come today, I'm afraid that the naming officials in the hall will be worried." ”"What???
The famous little prodigy Didi turned out to be a little princess?
No wonder, no wonder it's so powerful, it's not surprising, I'll just say, how can there be so many prodigies in the world who seem to be worthless, all at once.Haha, the little princess is fifth on the list this time, and she is the youngest, but she is more dazzling than the champion, and His Majesty will definitely be greatly rewarded.Hurry up and get in, the pilgrimage will start for a while. ”Du Shaoqing's father and daughter slowly walked to the Taiji Hall in the praise of the palace gate forbidden army.And this news spread quickly like a whirlwind, and soon spread throughout the entire palace, and then spread to Chang'an City."
Your Majesty, we have only notified nine of the top ten on the list, and there is still one person missing."
In the main hall, an official of the Ministry of Rites reported.Everyone is curious, isn't it, there is such a thing?
Which candidate is not nervously waiting for news in Chang'an City, how can he not even find the imperial court?
Li Er asked knowingly, "Oh?
I wonder who didn't notify me?
”"Di Di, who is fifth on the list, has never recorded his address, and only one of his hometowns is Zheng County.""
It turned out to be this child, don't bother, is Ma Du Shaoqing here?"
Li Er asked.Everyone looked left and right, but they didn't see Du Shaoqing's shadow.In fact, you don't need to look at it at all, Du Shaoqing didn't come to the last court for 800 years, and if he came, he would have something to do, so every time he came, everyone talked around him without waiting for the court meeting to start."
Father, maybe my brother-in-law is low-key, I don't want to publicize it" Li Chengqian just wanted to explain a few sentences, and a call came from outside the door, and Du Ju arrived.Everyone looked in the direction of the temple gate, and Du Shaoqing took his daughter's hand and walked confidently.Along the way, I didn't forget to greet the courtiers: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, there is some congestion on the road, I'm late, Your Majesty, the minister Du Shaoqing is here with the imperial examination candidate Di Di." ”Li Er really wants to kick his son-in-law, what is the congestion on the road?
It is clear that you don't have the habit of getting up early, you must be lying in bed."
Alright, no need to be polite.Child, today you don't need to wear men's clothes, come, come to grandpa. ”Li Er beckoned to Xiao Xuanxuan.Everyone's eyes widened and their ears opened, as if they didn't hear clearly, what is Your Majesty's name?
Grandfather?
This Didi is the grandson of the emperor?
Xiao Xuanxuan grinned, trotted up happily, and rushed directly to the emperor's arms and said affectionately: "Grandpa, I know that you are the best."
I'm afraid that they won't know me and invalidate my exams, which will be a big loss, so wearing this dress saves trouble. ”"Your Majesty, who is this child?"
Guozi Priest Kong Yingda stood up and asked.Guozijian Wang Siye stood up and explained: "Kong Sai Wine, this kid is Di Di, the candidate on the list. ”Xiao Xuanxuan said with a smile: "Grandpa who loves to drink, didn't you recognize me?"
”What?
An old man who loves to drink?
Are you the little princess Xuanxuan?
Kong Yingda's beard shook and he said in surprise.Li Er laughed and said, "Yes, you Aiqing, candidate Di Di is my granddaughter Xuanxuan, and I know about this from beginning to end." ”Wow, the court is lively, there are a small number of people who know, but no one dares to say it, the expression on the faces of those who don't know is wonderful, and the fifth person on the list is not only a prodigy, but also a little girl?
But isn't it, this is too appalling, presumably the most embarrassing thing is the candidates who are ranked after Xuanxuan, losing to a prodigy is not counting, who would have thought that it would be a defeat to a female doll?
Shame on the dead.Kong Yingda retreated weakly, and muttered in her mouth: "In this way, it is not unusual, this little princess is talented and has a family background, the old man has long known that she will be a strange woman in the future, but I didn't expect to look away, and became famous at the age of nine, which is amazing." ”Returning to his seat, the minister next to him asked in a low voice, "Lao Kong, why does the little princess call you an old man who loves to drink?"
You old boy is really good at pretending, every time you talk to a banquet, you can't drink, it turns out that you are a cunning guy, I misjudged you. ”Don't get me wrong, I'm really not strong enough to drink, "Don't pretend, next time we have an appointment with a few old friends, we have to find out your bottom line, and we have to make up for all the wine you owe over the years" Another person echoed.It's over, Kong Yingda knows that she was inadvertently pitted to death by the little princess, and she can't escape a wine debt.Li Er took his granddaughter's hand and asked, "Xuanxuan is unusually good in this scientific expedition, what reward do you want, tell your grandfather directly." ”"Really?"
Xiao Xuanxuan's eyes lit up."
Of course it's true."

Everyone paid attention to the grandfather and grandson, and they didn't know which one had no eyesight, so they whispered something extremely inappropriate."
It's a princess, don't say give a fifth place, it's not too much to give a champion" In an instant, the entire hall fell silent, and everyone looked at the source of the voice, which was a very young official.Emperor Li Er's face instantly fell.The man was also stunned, it was originally a guess out of jealousy, thinking that there was a commotion at this time, everyone was discussing, and he muttered in a small voice that he didn't care about, how did it become a slap in the face in public?
Oh, yes?
What's going on?
In fact, this person is also unlucky, the emperor happened to ask about the reward, everyone's attention was shrouded in the past, and naturally the noisy discussion voice was gone, but this person had no eyesight, and his mouth was still muttering, isn't this looking for death?
Du Shaoqing asked calmly: "This eye-looking student, I don't know if you have investigated and understood, so you are commenting on the little girl?"
”The man was so frightened that his face was like earth, and he knelt down and kowtowed directly: "Your Majesty spares your life, Master Ma spares your life, and the unintentional words of the subordinate officials are really not what they meant" Seeing this scene, Li Er was extremely disgusted, and he was a person who tended to be inflammatory, and he didn't even have the courage at all, how did he climb this Taiji Palace?
waved his hand to let the other party retreat, Li Er didn't have the heart to worry about him, and someone else cleaned it up afterwards.Du Shaoqing said loudly: "Everyone, the little girl's exam is all based on real talent, if you want to get a place on the list with the status of a princess?"
Then you don't need to use a pseudonym and pretend to be a man, if anyone has any objections, they can check her answer sheet or ask questions in person.There is only one thing, when there is no real evidence, no one can slander. ”Du Shaoqing said loudly, most of the people nodded secretly and pondered, right, if people are here to play, just use their real names, Your Majesty loves this granddaughter so much, can't you make an exception for her to take the exam?
Why bother to participate under a pseudonym?
Wang Siye stood up and said: "The little princess is serious, the little princess has performed well in the examination room, her talent is quick and she answers the questions quickly, and we are all anonymous judges, this ranking is absolutely fair and just, and the little princess is really talented and learned, and there is no adulteration." ”"Yes, the old man is responsible for the scientific examination and grading, and he can guarantee it."
Kong Yingda stood up and said.No one in the Taiji Hall had any objections, and they came out to congratulate Du Shaoqing.Li Er then asked about Xiao Xuanxuan's reward.Xiao Xuanxuan thought for a while, and replied unexpectedly: "Grandpa, I don't want to be an official and I don't want you to reward me." ”"Oh?
So Xuanxuan, what reward do you want?
”Li Er asked curiously."
I want my grandfather to have a few days off, you and your grandmother haven't gone to play with me for a long time, every time my mother says you're busy, I don't believe it, you are definitely not as busy as me, I have to study medicine and medicine and learn the Four Books and Five Classics, and I haven't been shopping for a long time.If you and your grandmother play with me, I will be able to take a good rest for a few days," the extra granddaughter's words made Li Er stunned.He never thought that it would be this answer, and forgot to answer it for a while.And everyone in the hall couldn't help but be dumbfounded, some people thought that children are children, and the nature of playfulness every day cannot be changed.And some people don't see it that way, and even are shocked, no wonder people can get ahead at a young age, it turns out that they don't stop learning for a day.Not only do you learn the Four Books and Five Classics well, but you also have to learn medical skills, such a workload is difficult for an adult to complete, and it is difficult to imagine how a little girl lives her ordinary life?
Yu Chi Laohei couldn't help but muttered in a low voice: "Look at how hard the little princess knows, my little cub can't read a lot of big characters until now, I'm so angry, it seems that I have to be beaten when I go back." ”After a while, Li Er came back to his senses and reprimanded Du Shaoqing in the audience: "That's how you kid educates children?
She is only nine years old, which is the age of playfulness, how can she work day and night to learn this and that, what should I do when I am tired?
If it weren't for today, I probably wouldn't have known that you were so harsh on children. ”I, Du Shaoqing, am really dumb and can't say if I have a hard time eating Coptis chinensis, whether it is good or not at all, the child has a strong learning ability, she has to learn by herself, besides, no one plays with her, it's not that we don't give her time to play, how did it become my back?
After reprimanding Du Shaoqing, Li Er said to Xiao Xuanxuan lovingly: "Okay, grandpa promised you that you will have a three-day holiday, call your grandmother, take your little son with you, and go to your house to accompany Xuanxuan for a few days." ”Li Chengqian persuaded: "Father, how can this be done?
The court is busy, the child jokes for a while, thinks twice, or waits for leisure" Li Er waved his hand to stop Li Chengqian, and asked His Royal Highness's ministers: "What do you think Aiqing?"
I have been a childish boy for three days, is it child's play?
”Everyone in this hall bowed their heads, and no one stood up to answer.Wei Zheng, the white-haired old minister, straightened up and said loudly: "Your Majesty, for the sake of the monarch to take the world as a private interest, this move is indeed child's play.But the old minister thought that since His Majesty was able to openly agree in the main hall, although it was to reward the little princess for being on the list, there must be other reasons, please make it clear to Your Majesty. ”Li Er laughed and said: "Xuancheng, after so many years, you have finally changed your style of admonition, it is rare for you to know my heart."
Xuanxuan's words reminded me a lot, maybe in the past, our monarchs and ministers only focused on state affairs, neglecting their families, especially children who need love.So I propose to take a three-day break, and so do you, go home and rest, and at the same time spend a few days with your family, I wonder what this proposal is?
”How is this?
Everyone looked at each other, and most of them had a surprise in the corners of their eyes, who wouldn't be happy to have a three-day holiday for no reason?
Datang is now a ten-day holiday, and everyone is so busy that they have no time to breathe, so it is natural to be able to rest for three days.So almost everyone praised in unison: "Your Majesty is wise." ”Li Er said with satisfaction: "Since this is the case, then it is decided." ”"Father, three days in a row, if there is a big event?"
Li Chengqian asked again."
In the past three days, you have come to the prison country, if you encounter a major event, you can make a choice, don't come to disturb me, this holiday is won by my granddaughter's hard work, but I can't be disturbed."
What???
I don't have a holiday??
Li Chengqian was immediately dumbfounded.Li Er put Xiao Xuanxuan down, "Go find your grandmother, there are still political affairs to be busy here, you tell your grandmother to prepare." ”The chamberlain Lao Gao pulled the excited Xiao Xuanxuan out of the Taiji Hall and wanted to walk towards the Lizheng Palace.Turning to the meeting, Li Er looked at the candidates who had been standing in two rows in the center of the main hall, and the first one was ten-year-old Di Renjie.
