.

Emperor Tianqi in the Forbidden City had a smile on his face and was wearing a dragon robe under Wang Chengen's service. It could be seen that Emperor Tianqi was in a good mood. Looking back at Wang Chengen, Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "How is it? They are all here.

?”

"Your Majesty, everyone is waiting outside!" Wang Chengen replied respectfully, with a little expectation on his face.

He nodded slowly, today is the day when Emperor Tianqi receives the new scholars. Although there were palace examinations and Qionglin banquets before, these people may not have seen what Emperor Tianqi looks like. But there are not many people here today.

, there are three Jinshi in the first class, a few people in the second class, they are all Hanlin editors just selected, and there are also Shujishi in the new department. These people can be said to be the emperor's proud ones, representatives of leaping over the dragon's gate.

In the duty room not far away, several people were waiting respectfully. Although they were all talking and laughing, there was a bit of anxiety on their faces. The ages of these people varied, and some were already very old.

The representative among them is Wen Zhenmeng, the new champion of science, who is already forty-six years old.

Wen Zhenmeng's qi-nurturing skills in the ten imperial examinations in thirty years are unparalleled by ordinary people, and his firm will is even more difficult for most people to match. On the other hand, the 28-year-old Ni Yuanlu is a representative of young people.

Being named on the gold list, ranking among the top three, will definitely be a good story in this era. However, the most eye-catching person is not Ni Yuanlu, but the second place on the list, Lu Xiangsheng, who is only 21 years old, a really young person.

Among these three people, these three have a very good relationship. They are both ranked top three in the same subject, and their reputation is widely known in the capital.

"Brother Ni, today the emperor summons me, I don't know what to say!" Looking at Ni Yuanlu, Lu Xiangsheng said with a smile.

Everyone in the room was stunned. This is something that everyone wants to know, but they can't say it. It is naturally very important to figure out the holy will, but how can this kind of thing be brought to the table?

Ni Yuanlu frowned slightly, smiled calmly, and said in a deep voice: "Having the opportunity to listen to the holy teachings is naturally a blessing for us. It is something that outsiders cannot envy!" As he said this, Ni Yuanlu made a gesture to Lu Xiangsheng.

With a look in his eyes, he obviously didn’t want to talk about this anymore.

He sighed softly and shook his head. Lu Xiangsheng could naturally understand what Ni Yuanlu meant and didn't say anything. Wen Zhenmeng on the side saw Lu Xiangsheng's appearance, walked over and patted Lu Xiangsheng on the shoulder, saying in a deep voice:

"My dear brother, everyone has his or her own ambitions. I know the ambition in your heart. Today's meeting with the Emperor is an opportunity. If you have anything to say to the Emperor, I believe that the Emperor will understand."

Looking at Wen Zhenmeng in surprise, seeing his sincere eyes, Lu Xiangsheng nodded vigorously. From his heart, Lu Xiangsheng was not willing to be a Hanlin editor. Although there was a saying in the Ming Dynasty that non-Hanlin people would not join the cabinet, but Lu Xiangsheng did not want to be a Hanlin editor.

I have no interest in joining the cabinet.

In his opinion, the problem of the Ming Dynasty lies in the border. Lu Xiangsheng has been deeply influenced by his father since he was a child. Moreover, his parents died in the border. As the saying goes, the hatred of the country and the family, he has no intention of raising his family in the capital.

I wanted to surrender to the people around me immediately. Seeing that Wen Zhenmeng understood me, my heart suddenly warmed up. I nodded to Wen Zhenmeng and became more determined in my mind.

No one was talking, everyone was thinking about their own things, and they looked outside from time to time, but there was no anxious look on their faces.

"My lords, come with us!" Chen Lin walked in slowly, looked at several people with a smile, and said with a hint of respect on his face. These are the emperor's proud sons and cannot be offended!

Everyone stood up one after another, adjusted their clothes, and followed Chen Lin forward. They didn't go far before several people were taken into Emperor Tianqi's Nuan Pavilion.

"I see you, Your Majesty, long live my Emperor!" Several people lifted up their clothes and knelt down as if they had rehearsed, and they all spoke in unison.

Looking at the people kneeling below, Emperor Tianqi nodded with a smile and said in a gentle tone: "Everyone, get up! Today is not the first time I have received you, so don't be restrained!"

After thanking them, several people stood up, but Ni Yuanlu and the other three had a doubt. Why did the emperor's voice sound like they had heard it somewhere? After standing up straight, several people raised their heads in unison. When they saw the emperor sitting there,

When Emperor Tianqi was seen behind the Long Bookcase, everyone was fascinated there.

Looking at several people with a smile, Emperor Tianqi naturally understood the surprise of several people, but this is not the time to talk about this. After pondering for a while, Emperor Tianqi said: "You are all the future of the Ming Dynasty, do your work well, I won't

I will treat you badly!"

"Thank you!" Several people bowed and saluted, with joy on their faces. It was already a great honor to be received by Emperor Tianqi.

"Lu Xiangsheng!" When his eyes fell on Lu Xiangsheng, Emperor Tianqi's expression suddenly became serious and he said in a deep voice.

Bowing and giving a salute, Lu Xiangsheng said respectfully: "I'm here!"

"Others may have nothing to do, but when I saw you today, I did have something to do!" Emperor Tianqi stared at Lu Xiangsheng and said.

"Even if your Majesty orders me, I should tell you everything I know!" Lu Xiangsheng suddenly felt a little uneasy. He had just seen someone he knew sitting behind the Long Bookcase, and now he heard Emperor Tianqi speaking like this, and he felt a little uneasy!

Seeing that Lu Xiangsheng's expression did not change at all, Emperor Tianqi nodded slightly and said: "Your father Lu Feng was a hero of the Ming Dynasty. He would rather die than surrender, and he was a role model for his ministers. I feel sorry for you very much. I wanted to promote you, but I don't want to let you down."

People think that you were favored because of your kindness, so you waited until after the imperial examination. I hope you don’t think that the court does not pay attention to your parents. Your parents died for the Ming Dynasty, died for me, and died a worthy death!"

Lifting up his clothes and kneeling on the ground, Lu Xiangsheng said in a trembling voice: "The emperor's love and care are deeply felt by me!"

Everyone present looked at Lu Xiangsheng. Not many people knew about Lu Xiangsheng's life experience. They did not expect that there was such a story.

"Your father has an old friend who hopes to accept you as his disciple, but he is not in the capital now, so he has entrusted this matter to me. I hope to wait until you have passed the imperial examination before making this matter public. Today I want to

I’ll tell you this!” Emperor Tianqi continued without letting Lu Xiang rise.

"I wonder who this old friend of my father is?" Lu Xiangsheng, who was kneeling on the ground, was stunned and said with a slight surprise in his tone. He still knew something about his father, but he really didn't know that any old friend could be entrusted to the emperor.

.

After frowning and thinking for a while, Emperor Tianqi said slowly: "You should have heard of this man. He is the teacher of the late emperor and me, Mr. Sun Chengzong!" Emperor Tianqi did not address Sun Chengzong's official position, but only mentioned it.

The identity of the teacher is self-evident.

Everyone was stunned. Who knows Sun Chengzong's Ming Dynasty? Being able to become his disciple is something that many people can't ask for, and Lu Xiangsheng is no exception. But unlike others, Lu Xiangsheng does not do it for his status as a teacher.

, but because of Sun Chengzong's talent for dealing with foreign affairs, it is really exciting to be able to listen to his teachings by his side.

"Since we are old friends from my father, I have nothing to say!" Lu Xiangsheng said respectfully without any pretense.

"That's good, get up! From now on, we can be regarded as students from the same school. Don't hold on to your identity and must not do anything inappropriate. We must be sincere and do not let down the expectations of me and Mr. Sun!" Emperor Tianqi looked at Lu Xiangsheng with a serious face.

, ordered.

Lu Xiangsheng bowed and said resolutely: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will stick to my heart and not dare to slack off!"

"Your Majesty, Xiong Wencan, Secretary of the Ministry of War, wants to see you!" Emperor Tianqi wanted to say something else, but Chen Lin strode in and said respectfully.

Emperor Tianqi was stunned for a moment, pondered for a long time, and said: "You all should go back! Work hard, Lu Xiangsheng stays!"

After a few people thanked him, they walked out and looked at Lu Xiangsheng with complicated eyes, obviously full of envy.

Not long after, Xiong Wencai walked in under the leadership of Chen Lin, picked up his clothes and knelt on the ground, saying: "Long live Xiong Wencan, Minister of the Ministry of War, long live the Emperor Wu who participated in the construction!"

Smiling and waving his hand, Emperor Tianqi ordered: "My dear, you are free of ceremony. I wonder if you have anything to tell me?" Before Xiong Wencan could speak, Emperor Tianqi smiled again and said: "Lu Xiangsheng, I have met Mr. Xiong!

"

"Hanlin Editor Lu Xiangsheng, I have met Mr. Xiong!" Lu Xiangsheng knew that Emperor Tianqi was promoting him, so he bowed respectfully to Xiong Wencan.

"I can't do it, I can't do it! Mr. Lu was ranked second in high school at a young age, and now he has become a Hanlin editor, which is enough to put me to shame!" Xiong Wencan also noticed that apart from the difference, Emperor Tianqi seemed to value this man very much. Lu Xiangsheng had just bent down.

He supported her.

Looking at this scene, Emperor Tianqi said: "Xiong Aiqing, Lu Aiqing has been accepted as a disciple by Mr. Sun. From now on, he will be my fellow disciple. You have to take good care of me!"

Xiong Wencan was stunned for a moment, looked at Lu Xiangsheng, and thought to himself: This guy is amazing! He is valued by the emperor, and he is Sun Chengzong's disciple. His ability is not bad, and his future must be limitless! Then again, Xinke

The second place on the list, this ability is not bad, it seems that this is another new star in the Ming Dynasty officialdom!

"Of course, as the Emperor's fellow disciple, I will certainly help you a lot!" Xiong Wencan looked at Lu Xiangsheng with a smile and nodded gently to him.

"What's the matter with my dear?" After seeing this, Emperor Tianqi turned his thoughts to business. Now that Xiong Wencan is here, he will naturally go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing.
