Walking out of the Tai Chi Hall and looking back at the imperial city with endless palaces, Yang Fan suddenly felt a surge of pride in his heart.
Now that hope has been planted, it will eventually sprout.
As long as this mechanism can be fully implemented, Datang will surely be able to dominate the world and stand on top of the world forever.
Since the establishment of the imperial examination system in the Sui Dynasty, only five or six examinations have been conducted intermittently for more than 40 years.
In addition to being obstructed by powerful families, the Sui Dynasty itself did not pay attention to it.
In the Tang Dynasty, it was only held two or three times during the Wude period, but it all ended hastily due to poor planning.
It can be said that the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty had no experience in holding such large-scale examinations.
More importantly, it did not attract the attention of the rulers.
Now that these examination details are in place and Li Er is doing his best to support, Yang Fan believes that the effects will gradually appear.
Of course, Yang Fan is not blind!
He did not expect to recruit any talents from poor families through this imperial examination, he was just preparing for a rainy day and planning for the future.
"Marquis Zhongyi... cough... brother-in-law..." A slightly childish voice sounded from behind, pulling Yang Fan back from his thoughts.
Looking back, Li Zhi, the young gentleman, was standing behind him with his head raised, while several chamberlains were sitting a little further behind, not approaching.
When he saw Yang Fan looking at him, Li Zhi shrank his head timidly, but it was obvious that something was wrong and he looked pitiful as he hesitated to speak.
Yang Fan secretly laughed in his heart, he did not expect that the future Emperor Gaozong would be so timid.
However, Yang Fan did not reflect or reflect. Ever since Li Zhi asked for Wu Meiniang and was rejected by him, there was no time when he did not deliberately tease Li Zhi.
Now that Li Zhi is mentally immature, he is of course a little afraid of getting along with Yang Fan.
However, Yang Fan said: "Why does Your Highness have time to come to Tai Chi Hall? Don't you need to go to school?"
Li Zhi rolled his eyes and said speechlessly: "The school has a day off every ten days, and today is the time for rest!"
As he said that, Li Zhi looked at Yang Fan with slight contempt. He didn't even know this. He was indeed the legendary reckless man who only knew how to use his fists and clubs and didn't learn at all.
Don't dare to resist openly,
Li Zhi could only secretly despise him in his heart.
Yang Fan's face turned red and he looked slightly embarrassed: "Oh, there are many things, I forgot."
Although he really wanted to teach this kid a lesson, after all, he was a prince, his brother-in-law, and the son of the eldest grandson Wugou, so he decided to spare him a life.
Seeing that Li Zhi had no intention of leaving, Yang Fan asked in confusion: "Did you come to me specifically?"
Li Zhi nodded and said: "Third brother's leg injury has recovered. I specially invited guests to the Lishan manor. Third brother specially asked me to come over and invite you over."
The only person who could be called the third brother by Li Zhi was King Wu Li Ke.
Since being assassinated last time, Li Ke injured his thigh and has been recuperating in the Lishan manor.
Counting the time, I haven't seen him for nearly two or three months.
It's really embarrassing to face him now!
After all, due to some strange combination of circumstances, I have an unclear relationship with Concubine Yang, and I really don’t know how to feel about it.
After thinking about it, Yang Fan said: "It just so happens that my carriage is waiting outside the palace. How about we go together?"
The car has its own way to the front of the mountain, and going with Mr. Shota may alleviate some of the embarrassment.
Li Zhi was overjoyed: "Really? I have long heard from Xiao Sizi that my brother-in-law's carriage is unparalleled in the world, and I am also planning to try it."
In the four-wheeled carriage, Li Zhi was sitting in the carriage, jumping up and down with excitement.
Touching this and that, one eyeball is almost not enough, he looks like an active boy.
Growing up in the royal family, what kind of luxury has Li Zhi not seen?
It's just that the style of this four-wheeled carriage is too novel, the decoration inside the carriage is also unique, and the young lady is at the age where she is curious about everything.
One moment he asked what kind of animal fur the cushions were made from, and the next moment he asked why the carriage was so stable, which really annoyed Yang Fan.
Lishan is actually a royal resort garden.
The song "The Story of Love Lotus" was composed last time in Lishan, and it was composed in Princess Changle's manor.
Being annoyed by Li Zhi, Yang Fan asked: "Why does His Highness King Wu travel so far to hold a banquet? You princes all have your own manor in Lishan?"
As if seeing a local leopard, Li Zhi replied speechlessly: "Lishan is the place where my father spends summer vacation. How is it possible that every prince has a villa there?"
"Except for the prince's brother, third brother, fourth brother, Chang Le, Gao Yang's two sisters and little Sizi, I am the only one who has one."
It turned out that only the favored prince, princess, and Li Er were given land on Lishan Mountain to rebuild the manor.
During the chat, Yang Fan was a little bit happy when he heard that Princess Changle had settled in the manor in Lishan since she reconciled.
But when he thought of his eldest grandson Wugu, Yang Fan suddenly frowned and had a headache.
To be honest, Yang Fan's silk style makes him extremely possessive. Such a white and pure lotus flower can only be viewed from a distance and cannot be desecrated.
The more he thought about it, the more depressed he became, and Yang Fan lost interest in talking.
The carriage drove along the official road to the foot of Mount Li, and was greeted by many servants at the gate.
This is a royal garden, and because King Wu was assassinated by an assassin last time, tourists and outsiders are not allowed to approach it.
Therefore, at the entrance of Lishan Mountain, there are not only internal servants waiting at the door, but also teams of guards stationed there, who will expel tourists when they see them to ensure safety.
In fact, when they saw this unique four-wheeled carriage from a distance, the chamberlains and guards already guessed that Marquis Zhongyi was coming.
But His Highness King Wu has specifically stated that no one will be allowed in without an invitation.
Although this prince is about to become the consort and the husband of Princess Gaoyang, so to speak, he is not an outsider, but he must obey the orders of His Highness King Wu.
What's more, I heard that the emperor will come over later.
If we don't check the invitations, if something goes wrong, why don't all of them, the slaves, be beaten to death?
However, after all, the Marquis had a reputation for being evil, and if he blocked it rashly, he would have to be beaten.
If you are beaten up, where can you go to reason?
The servants looked at each other and smiled bitterly, feeling a bit embarrassed, not knowing whether to stop or not...
When the carriage arrived, the curtains opened, and Jin Wang Li Zhi was the first to jump out.
The imperial guards and chamberlains breathed a sigh of relief. Since His Highness Prince Jin was accompanying them, whether Yang Fan could enter or not, it was not up to them to make the decision.
Even if Yang Fan goes in without an invitation and causes trouble, His Highness the King of Jin will take care of it and it has nothing to do with them.
As long as they don't take the blame, these servants will naturally be very attentive.
Even when Yang Fan got off the bus, there were two chamberlains who supported Yang Fan affectionately and waited on him to get off the bus.
This intimate look made Yang Fan feel chills. He quickly shook off the hands of the two eunuchs and jumped out of the carriage.
It's not that Yang Fan is being hypocritical. Speaking of which, Yang Fan has no discrimination against eunuchs, a special profession.
After all, except for poor people who have no choice but to make a living, who would be willing to cut off their descendants and enter the palace?
Perhaps seeing that Yang Fan was treating him well today, Li Zhi happily took Yang Fan's hand and prepared to pull him up the mountain.
Just as he was about to walk through the door, he was attracted by a burst of noise behind him and turned his head.
It turned out that a gorgeous carriage also drove through the gate, and a beautiful woman was getting out of the carriage.
This girl's face is as creamy as the spring water in her sleep. She wears soft white jasmine gauze. She wears a white plum blossom skirt that sweeps the floor. Her body is tied with soft gauze, and a white brocade belt ties up her slender waist that cannot be grasped.
It has the feeling of "lightly wearing a small fan of white orchids, and a slender jade belt dancing on the sky veil. It is suspected that a fairy has come down to earth, and her smile is as bright as the stars when she looks back."
Before Yang Fan could see clearly, Li Zhi immediately let go of Yang Fan's hand and ran over happily, shouting happily: "Sister Changle, where are you from?"
This person is none other than Princess Li Lizhi of Changle.
Princess Changle was startled by the sudden shout. She calmed down and realized it was Li Zhi. She said happily: "Xiao Sizi asked me to pick her up. She just came back. Zhinu, why are you here so early?"
Running to Princess Changle, Li Zhi bowed politely, and then explained: "I was entrusted by my third brother to personally invite my brother-in-law to come to the banquet!"
"Brother-in-law?" Princess Changle was slightly surprised. There were many royal daughters older than Li Zhi, but there were not many who could make Li Zhi willing to call him brother-in-law.
Looking up, Princess Changle realized that there was another person not far away.
Seeing Princess Changle looking over, Yang Fan turned around and walked a few steps quickly, bowed slightly, raised his hands and saluted: "I have met Her Royal Highness."
Princess Changle was as beautiful as a willow, with her eyes lowered, she solemnly gave Yang Fan a Wanfu gift and said: "We are all one family, and Marquis Zhongyi does not need to be too polite!"
Facing this ridiculously beautiful Princess, Yang Fan said perfunctorily: "Your Highness, you are so disrespectful. Yang is just a rough man and likes to be more at ease. I can't bear your Highness's courtesy."
Princess Changle seemed to be smiling but not smiling. She glanced at Yang Fan with her bright eyes and said coquettishly: "Are you a rough man? Who doesn't know that Marquis Zhongyi wrote books and passed down his studies? If you claim to be a rough man, how will you tell those literati to deal with themselves?
?”
Yang Fan was shocked that this beautiful and intelligent princess actually had such a naughty side.
Could it be because after making peace with Changsun Chong, the girl's nature was released?
However, this kind of Princess Changle is also more attractive. After all, a woman with a hint of popularity is even more coveted.
It would be a lie to say that Yang Fan had no thoughts about this pure and beautiful Princess Changle who looked like a white lotus.
But Yang Fan was not so dirty as to want to do anything to Princess Changle.
For the virtuous Princess Changle, Yang Fan purely admired her.
Speaking of which, Yang Fan has encountered many peerless beauties since he traveled to the Tang Dynasty.
In terms of appearance alone, the Wu sisters and Xiao Shiyun are no worse than Princess Changle.
But only Princess Changle is the most suitable for Yang Fan's aesthetics.
Not to mention her exquisitely beautiful face, her dignified and virtuous temperament alone makes her the good wife and mother that every man longs for.
Being able to talk to myself like this, it seems that I have a very good impression in the mind of Her Royal Highness the Princess.
Probably because of the article I wrote last time, "Ai Lian Shuo"!
It's a pity that Empress Xiao plotted against her, which made Yang Fan unable to let go of the grudge in his heart. After all, the relationship between the eldest grandson Wugou and Princess Changle...
However, since Princess Changle wanted to show her closeness, Yang Fan was certainly not a person who didn't understand the style. He said seriously: "Your Highness, Princess, has written a few books and can only be regarded as a little talent. Cao Zijian wrote a poem in seven steps.
It’s eight buckets high. If I hold my head against the sky, I can only be nine buckets high!”
There was a pop, but Princess Changle was amused by Yang Fan's remarks. She covered her little mouth and smiled like a flower: "Zhongyi Hou is really, I don't know how to put it more euphemistically. He and Gao Yang are really a match made in heaven."
Yang Fan did not refute this statement.
Yang Fan still admires Princess Gaoyang's modern feminine character.
Yang Fan was unwilling to continue on this topic and asked: "Your Highness, where is Princess Jinyang?"
Before he finished speaking, the carriage next to him opened the curtain, and Princess Jinyang's porcelain doll-like face poked out. She looked at Yang Fan and said with a sweet voice: "Brother-in-law, the little Sizi is here, hurry up and hug her."
I'm coming down!"
As he spoke, he opened his hands and stretched out his upper body.
Regarding Xiao Sizi's request, Yang Fan basically wouldn't even think about rejecting it.
Even if she wants to go to the moon, Yang Fan will probably find a way to get a Shenzhou 8 out.
Seeing Princess Jinyang's dangerous move, the accompanying nuns were shocked: "Your Highness, you are a noble person, how could you make such a dangerous move? It's just nonsense. What should you do if you fall?"
Although little Sizi is a bit naughty, he has always been very well-behaved in such matters.
She knew that if she was really hurt, the nanny who was always there to serve her would be punished.
After hearing this, he could only murmur in displeasure, but he stopped clamoring for Yang Fan to carry him out of the car.
Seeing that Princess Jinyang was so well-behaved, she no longer forced herself even though she had a longing look on her face, but her mouth was closed and she no longer looked happy as before.
Such a scene made Yang Fan panic.
Such a pretty little girl, no matter how much she longs for her, will not willfully bring worries and troubles to those around her.
Because she knew that if something unexpected happened, these nuns would have to bear the wrath of His Majesty Li Er.
But Yang Fan also knew that this elf-like little girl would wither and wither in just a few years as soon as her life began to bloom.
Whether you are willful or well-behaved, why not let her spend her time happily?
Thinking of this, Yang Fan's heart tightened, and he walked quickly to the carriage, opened his arms, and said with a smile: "Jump down directly, brother-in-law will definitely catch you!"
Little Sizi's big, bright eyes were originally full of disappointment, but when she saw Yang Fan's actions, she was filled with infinite surprise, and she jumped over on her short legs without hesitation.
With Yang Fan's skill, not to mention Xiao Sizi's petite body, he can catch even a calf steadily.
With a little effort, Princess Jinyang was caught firmly by him.
The nuns on the side were so frightened that they shouted with a trembling voice: "Marquis Zhongyi, be careful not to hurt the princess."
Yang Fan chuckled, directly put Princess Jinyang on his neck, held her two short legs, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry, if His Majesty blames you and puts the responsibility on Yang, it won't happen."
You will be responsible for it."
Then he asked Princess Jinyang dotingly: "Your Highness, how do you feel? Do you like riding a big horse?"
Little Sizi held Yang Fan's head with both hands and talked in Yang Fan's ear. He kept giggling and was obviously very excited!
"Wave……"
Then he lowered his head, put his lips together, and kissed Yang Fan hard on the forehead.
Yang Fan was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Princess Changle secretly. He saw that Princess Changle was looking at him with a smile but not a smile, with an inexplicable meaning flashing in her eyes.
Before Yang Fan could think about what that meant, he heard Princess Jinyang shouting excitedly: "Brother-in-law, little Sizi wants to ride a big horse, drive!"
Yang Fan chuckled: "Hold on tight, let's head up the mountain!"
With that said, he ran towards the gate with big strides.
The grandma on the side originally thought that Yang Fan was just carrying the little Sizi down.
Now Yang Fan let Princess Jinyang ride on his neck and run. He was so frightened that he almost lost his soul. He screamed: "Marquis Zhongyi, run slower, don't fall. Your Highness has been weak since he was a child, and your current body is as good as yours."
I almost greeted all the eighteen generations of Yang family ancestors in my mind. How could there be such an out-of-touch person?
The other party is Her Royal Highness the Princess. She grew up with golden branches and leaves, holding a golden key in her mouth. She is also His Majesty Li Er’s favorite princess now!
If there is an accident, the most you, Yang Fan, will get is a beating, and we will all be executed.
I really don’t know who is provoking whom?
I thought accompanying Princess Jinyang would be a nice job, but now I'm scared to death.
This Zhongyihou is really a stick, he is really not afraid of anything.
Of course, Mammy also knew that she could not stop Yang Fan, so she could only look at Princess Changle for help, hoping that Her Highness the Princess could stop her.
But Princess Changle never paid attention to her eyes. She just looked at her sister who was carried by Yang Fan on her neck with a complicated expression.
I had heard that Xiao Sizi and Yang Fan were intimate, but unexpectedly they were so close.
Not to mention the behavior of carrying the princess, just the way Xiao Sizi kissed Yang Fan just now, if it were anyone else, it would be enough to send him to Lingnan!
But this is too beyond the feelings of sister-in-law and brother-in-law!
Yang Fan doesn't care what they think?
As long as the little Sizi is happy, uu read www.uukanshu.com I don’t care about anything else, so what if I poke a hole in the sky?
Sure enough, the little Sizi riding on his neck howled excitedly.
The laughter like silver bells floated in the mountains, and the laughter like a lark seemed to be beautiful music.
The two of them were running along the Lishan trail, enjoying the beautiful scenery and having fun at the same time. They were so excited that they didn't know why.
Lishan is a royal garden, and every plant and tree has been carefully trimmed, making it truly beautiful.
It's just that many trees have just taken off their leaves and have lost a lot of their beauty.
Yang Fan came to a palace, but he didn't know how to proceed because he didn't know where Li Ke's palace was?
Just as he was hesitating, he heard Princess Jinyang above her shouting: "Brother-in-law, Sister Gao Yang is over there..."
Yang Fan looked in the direction of her meaty fingers, and sure enough he saw a beautiful figure in the distance waving his hand.
