Outside the palace city.

The palace door has not yet been opened, but many court officials have already gathered here.

Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong rode over together.

Uncle Bao, how are you? If you feel uncomfortable, you can go back today. I am the same here. Cheng Yaojin dismounted first, and then went to help Qin Qiong.

In the past few days, Qin Qiong's old illness has recurred.

Although he was recovering at home for two days and his condition was actually getting better, his face was still a little pale.

It's okay, it's just an old illness. The boy at home told me last night that he would definitely come over today.

That boy Huaiyu hasn't been so serious for a long time. If I don't come today, he will definitely be angry. Qin Qiong said with a smile.

Qin Qiong is just a son like Qin Huaiyu, so he should be beaten even if he should be beaten.

But it is also extremely accommodating.

Qin Huaiyu begged him for a long time last night, and Qin Qiong had never seen his son be so serious.

He also agreed to come.

The same goes for that little brat of mine. He said that if I don't come over to help Zhao Chen today, he will sever the father-son relationship with me. The little brat is really rebellious. Cheng Yaojin said angrily, with a look on his face. Smiling.

After all, both of them knew that Zhao Chen was a good investor.

Not everyone can get a chariot given by the emperor.

Even the prince does not have this right to enter and leave the palace freely.

If he could get through this, Zhao Chen's future would be unimaginable.

If you can't survive it...

It seems that there are a lot more colleagues here than usual. Qin Qiong glanced around and found that there were many people present who would not be seen at all on weekdays, but they were here today.

A mere boy is arguing with Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji in front of the palace. Everyone wants to come and see the excitement. Cheng Yaojin shook his head.

He has heard that all the ministers in Chang'an City who are qualified to attend the court meeting have arrived today.

Even several concubines from the royal family will appear together.

\u003c

br\u003e Today this is not like a court meeting, but like a party.

Today is a debate in front of the palace. Your Majesty doesn't want to get rid of Zhao Chen and then hurry up. Otherwise, why would you give such an order?

But I heard that it was Zhao Chen who saved the Queen's life last time. There is no need for Your Majesty to do this.

Then Zhao Chen is just a teenager. How can he be the miracle doctor who cured my mother's serious illness? It was a disease that even Sun Simiao could not cure.

To put it this way, it seems that His Majesty really wants to embarrass Zhao Chen in front of everyone in the world.

Hey, tell me, does Zhao Chen dare to come today?

Anyway, if it were me, I wouldn't dare to come. Do you dare?

Hehe, if it were me, I would just pretend to be sick at home and not come. I can't afford to lose face.

Two officials walked past Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin.

He whispered about what was going to happen at the court meeting later.

Between words, he was not optimistic about Zhao Chen's debate at the super meeting today.

Others nearby were also talking about it.

Everyone had a joking look on their faces.

This matter is going to be difficult to handle today. Cheng Yaojin shook his head.

Inside the Tai Chi Hall.

The emperor and the empress sat at the top, and on both sides sat several concubines from the harem.

The prince, King Wei, King Wu, Princess Changle, and Li Zhi in his arms were all standing aside at this moment.

Li Jing was sitting on a stool, wearing a wolf skin clothes, and standing behind him were a group of generals of the Tang Dynasty.

Changsun Wuji stood at the head of the civil servants, with Fang Xuanling beside him.

The other civil servants also stood bowed, waiting for the emperor's order.

There is only one thing in today's court meeting.

It is to determine the candidate for another deputy examiner for the autumn examination.

I had something to say yesterday. If Zhao Chen cannot pass the debate between Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling, I will rely on you to be the deputy examiner for the autumn examination.

Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling, you two are my subordinates in the Tang Dynasty. Your position as deputy examiner of the autumn examination is of great importance. You can't neglect it. Li Shimin spoke and said to the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty.

Then he looked at Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling who were standing in front and gave instructions.

Your Majesty's order, I must do my best. The two said with cupped hands. ??

But there was some curiosity in his heart. Could it be that as the officials said, the emperor wanted to completely disgrace Zhao Chen.

Otherwise why say so?

However, since the emperor has asked for it, they must be asking for it.

Li Chengqian also looked happy.

Zhao Chen had embarrassed himself several times, but today he finally had the chance to step on him.

Where is Zhao Chen? Are you here? Li Shimin glanced at the courtiers in the hall, but did not see Zhao Chen's shadow.

On the contrary, Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu arrived here.

Li Ruoshuang didn't come either.

Cheng Chumo, where is Zhao Chen? Are you sick? Li Shimin looked at Cheng Chumo and asked.

Empress Changsun frowned when she heard the emperor talking like this.

Your Majesty, Zhao Chen has no official status and cannot enter the palace, so he waits outside. Cheng Chumo explained.

Announce him to come in.

Your Majesty, I will call him. Cheng Chumo said quickly.

Qin Huaiyu also came out, bowed his hands to the emperor, and ran out in a hurry.

What are these two little bastards doing? Cheng Yaojin asked.

I don't know what they are going to do. Qin Qiong shook his head, his voice a little hoarse.

Cheng Yaojin was only thinking about how to help Zhao Chen later, and did not notice Qin Qiong's

Strange.

What's going on with these people? When someone comes to the palace, two of them still have to come?

He's just an ordinary citizen. I don't know why Your Majesty would spend so much time on him.

Such a lack of court etiquette is truly abominable.

Oh, forget it, Zhao Chen will be disgraced today anyway, don't even think about raising your head in the future.

Some of the ministers in the court were talking in low voices, and some had angry expressions on their faces.

Your Majesty, what are they doing? Queen Changsun and the Emperor asked.

I don't know what these guys are going to do. They are causing such nonsense. The crowd will be excited later. If Zhao Chen loses, I won't be able to excuse him. Li Shimin frowned and said softly.

Concubine, let Zhao Chen go back...

Queen Changsun was just about to get up when she saw four figures walking in at the door of the hall ahead.

Everyone held a stack of something that looked like books in their arms.

What are they going to do? Come in with so many books, do they want to read the answers in front of His Majesty?

How can I find the answers in the book about policy discussions and military formation debates?

Isn't this Zhao Chen a fool?

In my opinion, it is.

Seeing Zhao Chen and the others enter the Tai Chi Hall, the officials' eyes were locked on Zhao Chen's face.

When officials after the founding of the Tang Dynasty saw Zhao Chen, they just felt that this person did not understand etiquette and would be dealt with severely later.

But when the old people who followed Li Shimin and conquered the Tang Dynasty saw Zhao Chen's face, a look of surprise flashed across their faces.

The veterans turned around and looked at Li Shimin.

It was also the first time that Fang Xuanling saw Zhao Chen. His eyes suddenly shrank and he looked at Changsun Wuji.

It's just a resemblance. Changsun Wuji said slowly.

I thought... Fang Xuanling muttered, a little distracted.
