With the tall main hall Chengjun Hall as the center, the halls and pavilions on both sides are lined up, surrounded by corridors and eaves. There are towering ancient trees in the courtyard, located in the bushes, with snow-white buildings, revealing smoke-green glazed tiles, which look like embedded in the snow. From a distance, it looks like a green island.

There is a plaque with ochre-colored golden nanmu hanging on the top of the red lacquer gate. The three words "Taixuefu" on it were written by the Confucian ancestors three hundred years ago, and a sense of solemnity arises naturally.

"Academician Fang, please stay."

One of the academicians of the Hanlin Academy, Fang Guozhen, the deputy examiner of the palace examination, turned around and saw Mei Zihan walking towards him.

"Trial tutor?" He hurriedly saluted respectfully, "I will all listen to the advice of the Grand tutor."

"Academician Fang, I'll ask you for someone." Mei Zihan said, "Do you know there is a candidate named 'Du Li' in this spring exam?"

"Oh, is it him who the Grand Tutor asked?" Fang Guozhen thought about it and said, "Du Li is a candidate recommended by Binzhou. He is said to be very talented and ranked among the top in the first exam. He is especially good at Confucianism. But for some reason, he gave up the opportunity to take the palace exam halfway."

"Is others still in Luoyang?" Mei Zihan asked.

Fang Guozhen looked embarrassed: "I don't know this official, but the Taifu Hanlin Academy warehouse retrieved the files of this exam candidates, and it should have recorded the inn where he stayed at that time."

Mei Zihan nodded and made a decision in her heart.

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇

After walking around, Youmeng and Liyou returned to the carriage. Liyou helped her get on the carriage. He went up again and the two of them were about to leave the palace.

But just as Youmeng raised her hand to put down the curtain, she glanced inadvertently and saw two officials talking at the gate of the Imperial Academy, one of whom was proud of the snow and looked as old as before, which made her blood coagulate and she was eager to see her.

I am nervous when I come here today. What I fear most is to face this level, so I have always been deliberately avoiding where he might have passed. I thought I would not meet him, but I still couldn't avoid him before leaving.

Li You saw that her abnormality was: "What's wrong with the princess? Why don't you leave?"

Youmeng stared at her eyes, her eyebrows trembled slightly, and the vast smoke waves were rising. She was suppressed and endured, and she couldn't retract her eyes for a long time: "Liyou, have you seen the man wearing black official uniform over there?"

Li You followed her gaze, then locked the target and nodded.

"What do you think of him?" she asked very lightly, as if she was carefully caring for something.

Li You looked at the man silently for a while and analyzed: "He looks serious and steady, and he is majestic. He must be a minister with high power, right?"

"He is the chief examiner who founded the "Hundred Confucian Spring Science" and the tutor of the dynasty..." She paused unnaturally, and finally plucked up the courage to exclaim, "The plum blossoms are cold."

To this day, the name that was pronounced from her mouth can still awaken a different kind of tenderness deep in her heart.

Li You was slightly stunned and turned back to him in disbelief: "I didn't expect him to be so young..."

In his impression, judging from the achievements of the Taifu in the rumors, it would be impossible to reach his current level overnight. It would take many years of experience to settle down. Liyou even thought he was already a white-hearted old man.

The corners of Youmeng's lips slowly rippled: "He has Yuanxue, which is very disproportionate to his age. He was promoted to chief academician shortly after entering the Hanlin Academy. He served as the Royal Imperial Teacher for only two years, but he achieved remarkable results. The princes made rapid progress in their studies, and their political views were clear and highly valued by my father."

Li You was inexplicably disappointed: "Can you see that the princess admires him very much?"

"Yes, he has a high status in my heart, and I respect him very much." Youmeng admitted frankly, lowering her eyes secretly.

"But Princess, why do you look at him so sad?"

"Because..." She choked in a daze and smiled pale and bitterly, "He is brilliant, but he is the man I will never seek."

Li You was speechless, her honesty was like a pair of cruel hands, which hurt his heart violently.
