When the other eight scholars saw Li Zhen walking over, they couldn't help but feel nervous.
"What happened to you guys?"
Li Zhen stopped in his tracks and looked at them in confusion. He said,
"After this palace examination ends, the position of Imperial Censor is already in our hands. Why do you all look a little unhappy?”
Everyone laughed dryly and fell into endless silence.
I don't know who sent a scholar who was also an examinee to prison just now. Now that you're standing in front of us, can we be happy?
It wasn't that he didn't want to be happy.
He was too afraid!
" A hot face met with a cold basin of water. Now I'm on the stage. Serves me right. If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have done it!'
Li Er couldn't help but find it funny. He picked up the tea and sipped it while looking at Li Zhen with interest.
Li Zhen looked at them and a smile slowly bloomed on his face. He said,
"We're all officials of the same dynasty, so there's no need to be so reserved. Let's speak freely and say anything. By the way, do you know my father?”
Du Gou saw that he did not seem to have any hostility and immediately heaved a sigh of relief. A smile appeared on his face as he nodded and said,
"The famous Li Ji of the British Palace, the founding hero of our Great Tang. Who wouldn't know of his name?”
"There is still a gap between my father and Duke Lai.”
Li Zhen smiled and cupped his hands.
"After all, my father is good at mobilizing troops and fighting on the battlefield. However, Duke Lai is different. Not only is he good at war with Duke Liang, but he is also the prime minister of a country in the imperial court.”
Fang Yi Zhi hurriedly bowed.
Just like Du Gou, Fang Yizhi did not say anything, but he was very proud in his heart. The more they looked at Li Zhen, the more they liked him. The nervousness in their hearts instantly disappeared without a trace.
This kid is good. Li Er watched the group of young men complimenting each other from afar and clicked his tongue in wonder.
Especially Li Zhen's performance.
His words were flawless!
Every word he said deserved a good impression. At the same time, he did not belittle himself and his father. He gave people a feeling of being bathed in the spring breeze.
Li Zhen looked at Zhangsun Chong and said with a smile,
"I heard that the State of Zhao has been ordered to change the laws of the Great Tang? As far as I know, the matter of law is a national event. Once the law is completed, it will not only be a great contribution, but also a great event that will benefit the future and be recorded in history! Who knew how many people were envious of Duke Zhao behind his back.”
"If my father heard this, he would probably praise you in front of me." Zhangsun Chong grinned.”
"If Duke Zhao really praises me, I will definitely set off firecrackers outside my house. This is a great joyous occasion that must be celebrated!"”
Zhangsun Chong smiled and cupped his hands.
Immediately after, Li Zhen cupped his hands towards Yuchi Baolin once again. Then, he smiled and looked at Qin Huaiyu, Hou Yinshi, Xiao Rui, and Li Dejian. Every time he spoke with assurance, it made the other party feel refreshed.
For a time, the hall was filled with laughter.
He was no longer as nervous as before.
Qin Huaiyu smiled and said," Li Zhen, you speak of our father like that. In fact, we also admire your father in our hearts. The great name and deeds of the Duke of England must be respected for me."”
"That's right. My father told me about Li Ying Gong's deeds. I was fascinated by him and wished I could be a death warrior under uncle!”
"My father also told me about it!"
"Hahahaha, we're all kindred spirits. As the saying goes, the person who stays with vermilion is red and the person who stays with ink is black.”
"In the future, it will be our world!"
Yuchi Baolin, Cheng Chumo, Li Dejian, and Xiao Rui also laughed and said.
Li Zhen smiled and nodded. He softly said,
"Those who respect my father, I have always thought that they are kindred spirits. Since they are my kindred spirits, I will treat them like brothers. Today, when we walk out of the hall, you and I are brothers.”
"That's a must!"
"I wish I could become sworn brothers with all of you right now. In the future, you and I will not only be colleagues, but also brothers!”
"This is good!"
"I agree!"
"When the time comes, we'll hold a banquet and celebrate. We'll get drunk!”
The more the nine scholars spoke, the more excited they became. They almost burned yellow paper on the spot and became sworn brothers.
Li Shi Min was stunned. He quickly drank some tea to calm himself down. The more he thought about it, the more surprised he became.
Li Zhen was really amazing!
With his words, he turned hostility into friendship. Not only did he recruit people's hearts, but he also made everyone feel that they were united against a common enemy. If they were to work together in the future, the next batch of pillars and the potential to become prime ministers would definitely be born from these people!
Good, good job.
They were all pillars!
Li Er nodded his head in satisfaction. The tea in the teacup became even more fragrant.
"Right, I just remembered something.”
Li Zhen scratched his head and looked at them."I have a bad temper sometimes. As you can see, I always cause trouble easily. If I offend you in the future, please don't take it to heart.”
"I was wondering what it was, a small matter!”
Cheng Chumo grinned.
"In the future, Li Zhen, your matters are my matters, and my matters are everyone's matters. I definitely won't take it to heart if I offend you, and I don't think everyone will take it to heart either!”
"That's right." Qin Huaiyu chuckled."I also offend people easily, but I can correct my mistakes!”
Du Gou scratched his head and said," My father told me that people will definitely have differences when they are together. There will also be times when they offend each other. I have to teach me that such things must not be taken to heart. It's easy to hurt feelings!" I definitely won't!"
Fang Yizhi quickly nodded,"I don't know either!"”
"I'm very magnanimous!" Li Dejian said proudly.”
"Who isn't?" Zhangsun Chong laughed.”
"Then it's decided. We have to be more magnanimous in the future!”
"Just forget about offending anyone!”
The other people also quickly expressed their stance. The more they spoke, the wider the smile on their faces became. It was as if at this moment, everyone was happy and harmonious as blood brothers.
"In that case, I can rest assured.”
At this moment, Li Zhen suddenly stopped smiling. Under everyone's confused gazes, he walked to the imperial table and said in a serious voice,
"Your Majesty, I just remembered something. I have something to attend to. I have nine colleagues who have just become censors. They are not worthy of being censors! They took my things!"
"Puff!"
Li Shi Min spat out a mouthful of tea and almost choked to death. He looked up at him in disbelief.
