Black-bellied Prince: Princess Ding is 13 years old

Chapter 74
The people present all fell silent upon hearing this.This...was it really written by the young boy in front of me?When did Shangcheng County produce such a talent?Write such ancient quatrains?
Bai Yu didn't say a word, but the Grand Tutor at the side was still not satisfied, and said again, "I don't understand why you have such unique insights into governing the country at such a young age. I want to know what you wrote about yourself. "The people are the foundation of the state, and the foundation is solid and the monarch is better. The people are the most important, the society is second, and the monarch is the least." What do you think?"

Everyone showed surprised expressions again, partly because of the sentence Bai Yu wrote, and partly because she had such a unique insight.The corner of Bai Yu's mouth raised, and he said, "The people as a whole are more valuable than the monarch. The so-called one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world; no matter how expensive the king is, if he doesn't win the hearts of the people, he will be replaced sooner or later. The emperor said Like a beautiful big ship, the people are like a vast ocean, and a big ship can only ride the wind if it is in the water; however, water can carry a boat and capsize it! All virtuous people who practice benevolent government, obey the hearts of the people, and constantly cultivate virtue in the world The king makes the country prosperous and prosperous, the weather is smooth, and the people live and work in peace and contentment; on the contrary, they go against the will of the people and eventually go to destruction. Therefore, the people are the foundation of the state, and the foundation is the king.

Bai Yu's words shocked all the literati and students. His Excellency burst into tears on the spot and clapped his hands, "Good! Good! Well said! Such a water can carry a boat and capsize it! With this opinion, It really is me, Shunchang No.1!"

Just like that, Bai Yu followed the team into Beijing with a hat similar to the number one scholar in Shangcheng County.In fact, she didn't want to go with everyone, especially when she was surrounded by a very "sticky" Taifu, who would ask her for poems and poems from time to time, and debate practical issues.

But in order to prevent others from doubting her, she had to be with everyone, so that no one would suspect her identity.Yongle, the Imperial Study Room of the Yizheng Palace.

Xiao Zizhe took the newspaper in his hand, the corners of his mouth raised, "Bi'er... I didn't know you were so talented..." His eyes drifted out of the window again.

In today's morning court, an invitation letter came from Shunchang Luohuang. In order to celebrate the new emperor Yongle's enthronement and to continue the friendship between the two countries, Xiao Zizhe was invited to go in person to appreciate their Shunchang Kingdom's three-year Hundred Flowers Festival next month.Half of the ministers in the court objected, fearing that Shunchang would use this to harm our emperor.Half of the ministers argued that since Shunchang sincerely invited him, how could our emperor lose his momentum.Both sides hold their own views, refuse to give in to each other, and each insists on their own words, and both have reasons.

But Xiao Zizhe naturally wants to go, not only can't lose the magnanimity of the king of this country, but also wants to go to Shunchang to investigate in person, besides, there is Bi'er there...

Shangcheng County is three days away from Kyoto, but it is not far.After walking the waterway for one day, the remaining two days were spent in horse-drawn carriages.Master Tai Tuo really admired Bai Yu, so he directly let Bai Yu into his carriage and let her accompany him all the way.Although Bai Yu was helpless, but she thought that with the relationship of the Taifu, it would be easier to get involved in the court of Shunchang, so she endured it.However, I have to say that this Master Tai Tu is really a person who cherishes talents, he has no pretensions, he just loves talents purely.

After a few days of ups and downs, I finally arrived at Shunchang Kyoto.Shunchang has a lot of water, and Kyoto is more like a waterfront.Prosperity is needless to say, there are people coming and going on the street, teahouses and restaurants are in an endless stream, and there are constant customers, just like a thriving scene.No wonder the emperor of Shunchang was ambitious and always wanted to dominate the world.However, that was before, and now that Bai Yu is here, no one can think of anything against Yongle!
All the literati who passed the preliminary examination were uniformly arranged in Hanfu Academy in the capital.This is the place where students from Kyoto study. They are all the children of officials and eunuchs, and they are extremely arrogant.They didn't look straight at Bai Yu and the others from other places.

Along the way, Bai Yu counted the number of people gathered in the academy. There were about [-] people selected from various places to participate in the anthology conference. The person in charge of the academy arranged them to live in a room in pairs.The rooms are separated by mosquito nets.It seems that the Tai Tuo said hello, and the person in charge treated Bai Yu very well, with all the courtesy.

Entering here is to prepare for the exam for the anthology conference.The one with Bai Yu was a white-faced scholar from Hucheng, named Zhang Liang, who was very thin but had a handsome face.He was full of Confucianism in every gesture, and he was very humble, which made Bai Yu feel quite comfortable.After talking with this person for a few words, they called each other brothers. Bai Yu is the youngest one here. In order not to make herself too special and attract people's suspicion, she has always disguised herself very well.

At night, Bai Yu was lying on the bed, Zhang Liang was still reading a book behind the veil, and at Xushi, when the academy turned off the lights, Zhang Liang fell asleep.The moonlight shone into the room, and after a while, I heard the sound of steady breathing from the opposite side.Bai Yu opened her bright and charming eyes, and concentrated quietly. It was silent outside the house, without any special strength.Bai Yu dispersed her energy and disappeared on the bed.

According to the news that Li had sent before, she would meet with Kui tonight to explore the Chixuan jade pendant.

Outside, the stars are shining brightly, the moonlight is mild, and Kyoto, surrounded by water, is dotted with waves reflected by the moonlight even at night.All the way to the south, Bai Yu secretly searched for the White Pagoda Temple Li said, which was the place she had agreed with Kui Xinli.The White Pagoda Temple was not too short, so Bai Yu saw it after walking around a few streets, and flew straight there.

All the monks in the White Pagoda Temple had already fallen asleep, only the White Pagoda in the temple was still lit. As soon as Bai Yu jumped to the top of the pagoda, another person also jumped over.The person who came was tall and tall, dressed in black and covered with a black cloth.Bai Yu was slightly surprised, isn't Li still in Shangcheng County, why did she follow here?

"Young Master," the visitor clasped his hands together, and Bai Yu realized that the visitor was Kui after hearing the voice. "Young master, please follow me." Without delay, he turned around and jumped to the east again.

Bai Yu knew that Kui Neng had taken a great risk by coming here.He didn't delay and followed behind him.

After a few streets, Kui and Bai Yu stopped at a mansion.

"Young master, this is the prince's mansion. The red jade pendant is on the prince. The prince is entertaining Tuo Bo and the general tonight. It is inconvenient for the subordinates to stay for a long time, so they have to go back. The subordinates have found out that the prince Luo Jin of the literary election conference Both the Seventh Prince Luocha will participate in the selection." Kui turned around and said in a low voice.
