(Because of health reasons, I haven’t touched the computer for a month. I was embarrassed to continue updating, but thinking about the readers who have always supported Ranshi, I had to be shameless. In addition, my health is still recovering, so I haven’t updated in the past month or two.
It will be normal. This is something that cannot be helped, so please understand.)

According to Liu Ziqiu's original intention, the son-in-law selection meeting held for Wang Yufeng could be used as a preview for the imperial examination to be held this summer, so he paid special attention to it, arranged the gathering at Taiyuan University, and reissued the announcement. Of course, it was used.
It was in the name of "Meeting Friends with Wen". However, some time ago, the imperial court had carried out a large-scale publicity. Almost everyone in Luoyang City knew that "Meeting Friends with Wen" was actually to choose a son-in-law for Wang Shichong's surviving daughter. Therefore, among the people
, still call this gathering a son-in-law selection meeting.
The ancients said that there is a house of gold in the book, and there is a beauty in the book. It means that as long as you succeed in studying, you will have money and beauties. In the early publicity of the court, Wang Yufeng was a great beauty, and the dowry allocated by the court was
Very rich. Money, beautiful women, both, isn't that what scholars pursue?
But Liu Ziqiu's idea was too simple. When the party started, the crowd of Taixuan disciples was like a mountain and a sea, but there were very few young talents who actually entered Taixuan. In fact, although this situation was in Liu Ziqiu's
Unexpected, but also reasonable. Those who are older will naturally not go in. Of course, it doesn’t matter if they must go in, but they must also be liked by other girls. As for those who are already married, it is not necessary.
As I said, if some Jiangdu princess takes a fancy to her, wouldn't she have to go home and give up her wife before remarrying?
In addition, there is another more important reason. Studying is a very hard work and requires a lot of financial support. Therefore, in that era, most of the scholars came from major aristocratic families. The children of these aristocratic families also had their own pride and did not dare to marry Hu.
Women are wives. Regardless of whether you are the princess of Jiangdu or some other princess, even if you are half Hu people, they will stay away from you. They also have a lot of orchids in their family, and they will also let these orchids serve on the pillow, but if you want to
It is absolutely impossible to make Hu Ji the main wife.
…
Although the situation at the scene made Liu Ziqiu very disappointed, the son-in-law selection meeting was still held as scheduled. The meeting venue was located in a flower hall of Taiyuan University. It was surrounded by green trees, small bridges and flowing water, and the scenery was very quiet. The flower clouds brought the
A Byzantine girl changed into men's clothes and leaned against a rockery. A few steps away, there were groups of people in twos and threes, some chatting, some talking about poetry. Hua Yun was a female general, so naturally she was not interested in poetry and the like.
And the Byzantine girl had just learned Chinese for more than a month and couldn't understand what they were talking about.
Hua Yun was bored, so he urged: "Yufeng, take a quick pick, is there anyone you like?"
"Ah? Well." The girl didn't hear clearly what Hua Yun was talking to her at first, and was slightly stunned. It took her a long time to react, lowered her head, and said softly, "Your Majesty, there are only these few people, how do you choose?"
Obviously, there is nothing she likes here.
Hua Yun looked around and saw that there were only about thirty teenagers scattered here and there.
Most of these young men came from poor families and wore very simple clothes. This Byzantine girl was originally from a peasant family, but since she came to the Han Dynasty Palace, everything she ate, wore, and used was of the best choice. Over time, her vision expanded.
He also gradually became taller. It is said that a man relies on his clothes and his horse relies on his saddle. These people were dressed shabbily, so naturally the girl looked down on them.
Although Hua Yun does not judge people based on their clothes, she is more interested in the temperament of these young people. Unfortunately, these young people all come from a humble background. Even though they are full of talents, they are a bit timid in dealing with others and appear to be quite petty. Even Hua Yun is
Can't see one
I like it. Thinking that Liu Ziqiu had spent so much effort to hold this son-in-law selection meeting, but it was so deserted, Hua Yun became furious and said angrily: "If you wait another half hour, if those young men still dare not come,
I will send troops to capture them all!"
She is not only a queen, but also a general. Not only is she in charge of the female guards in the palace, but she also has a place in the Han army. Several legions with the Changshan Army as the predecessor were all her former subordinates. Although the big
It is impossible to mobilize the army on a large scale, but it is still possible to mobilize three to five thousand troops.
The fake Wang Yufeng was startled and repeatedly advised: "Your Majesty, please calm down and I will make another choice."
This opportunity today was really hard-won for her. Although it was the result of her own hard work, because she learned Chinese quickly and spoke it most fluently, it was mostly due to luck. If Hua Yun hadn't suddenly changed her mind
, and instead asked Wang Yufeng to serve Liu Ziqiu. This great good thing would never happen to her, and the only thing waiting for her was
You died alone in the palace. Most people with language talents are smart, and the fake Wang Yufeng is no exception. She knows that if things get serious, her identity will probably be leaked. She is not willing to lose such an opportunity, no matter what.
, we have to get the glory and wealth first, and now we can only choose a general among these dwarfs.
In fact, it is impossible for Hua Yun to really mobilize troops to capture all the young talents waiting to take the imperial examination. She just used these words to scare the fake Wang Yufeng. After all, this fake Wang Yufeng has already jumped from the ground to the sky. If he is not satisfied yet
, it was a little unreasonable. Seeing that the fake Wang Yufeng agreed to choose one of these thirty teenagers, Hua Yun softened his tone and nodded: "Then choose quickly."
The fake Wang Yufeng's almond-shaped eyes swept over the faces of the young people, and she realized that upon closer inspection, some of these young people were really handsome. Except for the shabby clothes, they were barely passable. She hesitated for a moment, and finally slowly raised her head.
He raised his jade hand and wanted to point at one of them.
Suddenly, Hua Yun pointed at another person and said, "Yufeng, what do you think of that person?"
Following the direction of Hua Yun's finger, a man was eating cakes on the table with his head down. This son-in-law selection meeting was held completely according to Liu Ziqiu's wishes. Many fruit cakes and some red wine were prepared in the venue. Participants
You can take them at will. Everyone is not required to stand in a fixed position. As long as they are within the venue, they are allowed to move around at will. However, most teenagers are very reserved and only talk briefly with people they know well.
If a person eats whatever is prepared at the venue, he will appear to be a bit different.
Of course, Hua Yun chose this person for the fake Wang Yufeng, not because he was different, but because Hua Yun recognized this person as Du Ruhui, who was watching Orchid's performance in Waiguo City that day. Although from the heart, Hua Yun did not
Although he was optimistic about the timid Du Ruhui, Liu Ziqiu admired Du Ruhui and believed that he would be one of the strong contenders for the top spot in this year's imperial examination. Since Liu Ziqiu was optimistic about Du Ruhui, Hua Yun decided to add fuel to the fire and help Du Ruhui get rich first.
Du Ruhui only cared about eating, and his image was very poor. The fake Wang Yufeng actually looked down on him. But this was Hua Yun's recommendation. How could she not dare to disobey him, so she nodded reluctantly.
Hua Yun had sharp eyesight and couldn't help but sneered: "Don't just look at people by their appearance. This young man is a man of great talent and is destined to be one of the best in the future. If you marry him, you will not be humiliated."
When the fake Wang Yufeng saw Hua Yun being angry, she hurriedly said, "But it's up to the Queen to be the master. How can I dare to be picky?"
"It's good that you know." Hua Yun waved his hand to the guards around him and said, "Please come over and talk to the young master."
This son-in-law selection meeting did not set examination questions, and there were no certain criteria for judging. It all depended on the eyesight of the fake Wang Yufeng. Of course, Hua Yun was so confused that she did not dare to say anything more.
At this moment, several clear laughs came from outside the hall door, and another handsome young man walked in. Seeing that young man, Wang Yufeng's eyes suddenly lit up.
Although the procedures for the son-in-law selection meeting are relatively loose, everyone who is willing to participate needs to go through strict registration. Of course, this is only for registration, and the past of the participants will not be reviewed. Even if they are married and have children, no one will rush
You go. But there is also one thing, no one is allowed to provide false information. Married people are registered as single, and older people are registered as minors. Once found out, they will be severely punished. And the most serious thing is to pretend to be someone else. This is
The crime of deceiving the emperor is punishable by losing one's head. For this reason, Liu Ziqiu specially awarded a heavy reward. As long as someone reports and is verified to be true, the reporter will receive a reward of one thousand taels of silver.
There must be brave men under heavy rewards, not to mention that you can get a large sum of money just by talking about it, so why wouldn't everyone do it? If you look at it with a villain's heart, the crowd of spectators outside Taiyuan University may be shocked.
Many of them want to see if they can find an opportunity to report, right? In this case, no one can do anything like impersonation.
Hua Yun saw that this young man had an extraordinary temperament, so he nodded and said, "Get his information."
Soon, several guards split up. Two of them went to invite Du Ruhui, and the other two went to get the information of the young man who had just come in.
Du Ruhui was eating vigorously when he suddenly saw two guards with swords hanging on their waists appearing in front of him. He couldn't help being shocked and asked repeatedly: "Isn't it allowed to eat?"
One of the guards raised his hands and smiled: "Young Master misunderstood, it is my Young Master who asked you to come over and explain!"
Du Ruhui looked up and said lightly: "Not interested!"
The guard was stunned for a long time, but he couldn't explain Hua Yun's identity, so he could only hold his fists angrily, turned around and told Hua Yun to kill him.
On the other side, the two guards successfully obtained the boy's registration information and presented it to Hua Yun with both hands. The fake Wang Yufeng wanted to see it, but did not dare to fight with Hua Yun. She felt uncomfortable holding it back and had a pink face.
It turned red. Hua Yun was silent while holding the registration information. After a while, he said, "I didn't expect it was him!"
When the fake Wang Yufeng saw Hua Yun opening her mouth, she asked cautiously: "Empress, who is he?"
Hua Yun gradually tightened his right hand, and after a while, he slowly relaxed it again. He gritted his teeth and said, "Longxi Li Shimin!"
