Reborn on the day of marriage! After the marriage exchange, the elder sister went crazy
Chapter 107: Palace Examination
The day of the palace examination has arrived.
The ceremony is held at Chou time (3 o'clock) and the palace examination begins at Mao time (5 o'clock).
After midnight, Lu Bozhou had to set out for the imperial city.
Under the cool moonlight, Li Jinglan was adjusting Lu Bozhou's hat and belt.
The moonlight falls on the flowers, plants and trees.
It also fell on Li Jinglan's temples.
"Okay." Li Jinglan looked up and smiled.
This smile.
Lu Bozhou seemed to have lost his mind.
This woman was the one who woke him up from his nightmare.
It was the person who opened the door of the Lu family for him.
It was because of him that he knelt down before Teacher Wang and begged him for mercy.
He is the one who always holds an umbrella behind him.
That kind of people……
She is my wife!
Lu Bozhou grabbed Li Jinglan's hand and said, "Wait for me at home."
He gently brushed Li Jinglan's cheek with his fingers, then turned and walked out of the yard.
Li Jinglan stared at Lu Bozhou's back and smiled.
"I wish my husband will win the first prize in the imperial examination."
"Sure." Lu Bozhou raised his left hand without looking back.
Zhou Jin walked out from another yard.
Brothers Wang Zhenyan and Wang Yongqing also came out.
The four of them looked at each other and smiled.
Walk towards the door.
Wang Zhenyan's wife Yan Fuyu walked up to Li Jinglan and said in a low voice: "My heart is beating so fast."
Li Jinglan was silent for a while, then whispered, "Me too."
Perhaps Yan Fuyu was thinking of passing the imperial examination and becoming a Jinshi.
But what Li Jinglan was thinking about was how to get through the palace examination safely.
No matter the emperor or the ministers, they all wanted to see the story of winning six top honors in a row happen in their dynasty, and would not deliberately make things difficult for Lu Bozhou.
and so.
As long as Lu Bozhou's essay is good, there is a great chance that he will be chosen as the top scorer.
but……
She didn't know what consequences the palace examination would lead to.
Those hostile officials in the capital have seen all kinds of storms and waves. Any attack they make can kill people. They are much more difficult to deal with than Lu Zhangshi's Lu Xuande. Can she defeat them?
Zhao Zhengyi walked in from outside.
Li Jinglan turned around and advised Yan Fuyu, "Sister-in-law, go back and rest first! I'm very upset right now, and I also want to rest."
Yan Fuyu felt the same way, so she nodded and said, "Let's all get some sleep."
After seeing Yan Fuyu off, Li Jinglan looked at Zhao Zhengyi.
"The letter has been delivered." Zhao Zhengyi cupped his hands.
The letter was sent to Yin Zhihai.
In the letter, Li Jinglan expressed her concern, as a wife, that Lu Bozhou would be hungry and cold in the palace.
I beg Yin Zhihai to take better care of me.
With Yin Zhihai's care, Lu Bozhou should be able to take part in the palace examination safely.
at this time.
Yin Zhihai was changing clothes.
He smiled and talked to his wife: "This young couple has a really good relationship. Are you worried that Bozhou will be hungry in the palace?"
Madam Yin helped him straighten his robe and said with a smile, "Since you call me uncle, it's only natural for me to take care of you."
After finishing putting on his hat and robes, it was time for Yin Zhihai to enter the palace.
Wearing a scarlet official robe, Yin Zhihai looked even more majestic and handsome.
Mrs. Yin couldn't help but think of the time when Yin Zhihai went to Beijing to take the imperial examination.
The corners of his lips smiled deeply, "If Bozhou can win the first place, I'm afraid the most eye-catching person in this exam will not be the third place winner, but Bozhou."
The young top scholar is handsome.
The girls in Beijing are probably going crazy.
Just like when Yin Zhihai was paraded through the streets on horseback as the top scholar in the imperial examination, the road behind him was flooded with flowers.
Tianjie is ten miles long.
The horse hooves smell good when I return.
……
Nanli County.
Xia family.
For some reason, Li Fengxian couldn't sleep today.
He got up, put on his clothes and sat by the window.
The mind is flying.
Outside the house came the sounds of insects chirping and servants talking while getting up at night.
"Today is the day of the palace examination..." After a long moment, she let out a long breath.
As the time between rebirths gets longer and longer, the previous life seems to have become a dream of yesterday.
Some memories gradually become blurred and become pictures in memory.
The son let out a soft moan.
Li Fengxian walked over and patted her son gently.
The son pursed his lips and fell asleep again.
Li Fengxian looked down at her sleeping son, and then looked at her daughter who was still sleeping.
He smiled gently, "Meixiang, I will treat her well, don't worry."
"I woke up!"
"It just cost a lot! I lost my husband."
Fortunately, I have a son and a daughter.
From now on, it will be just like Li Jinglan’s previous life.
Help Xia Jifang get more beautiful concubines and have more children.
At this moment, she empathized with Li Jinglan in her previous life.
No wonder Li Jinglan wanted so many concubines and maids for Xia Jifang and they gave birth to so many children.
So this is the person.
Not worth the trouble to love.
……
The auspicious time has arrived.
The gates of heaven are wide open.
The palace gates opened slowly one by one as the drums and music sounded.
The team of examinees, headed by this year's top scorer in the imperial examination, walked slowly through the gate of the imperial city under the guidance of several university scholars of the current dynasty.
Standing in front of the towering palace.
The voice of the ceremonial officer rang out in the hall, "The auspicious time has arrived, candidates enter the hall!"
The emperor sat on the high dragon throne, looking at the candidates below with a smile on his face.
In order to prevent the candidates from getting nervous, the emperor did not speak before the exam.
But for some people, meeting a gentleman may be the only chance in their life.
Some candidates were so excited that they even collapsed to the ground.
Under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, the candidates found their seats.
Start writing articles.
The palace examination was very short, only half a day.
The examination will be held in the palace in the morning and the ranking will be determined before dusk.
Although there were more than 400 examinees, no sound of people talking could be heard in the hall.
All that could be heard was the sound of countless breathing in the hall.
There is also the rustling sound of the pen tip hitting the paper.
When the article was halfway written, the emperor could not help but step down from the dragon throne and began to patrol the room.
The person in the first row was a tribute scholar in his fifties. When he saw the emperor coming, he stood up tremblingly and wanted to salute. The emperor pressed his hand down and signaled him to continue writing.
Continue patrolling backwards.
As he walked past row after row, the smile on the emperor's face grew wider and wider.
Most of the candidates this year are between 20 and 40 years old.
The emperor walked slowly and came in front of Zhou Jin and was attracted by Zhou Jin's article.
Zhou Jin's article is very sharp, with a sense of anger that would rather break than surrender.
After looking for a while, he walked away from Zhou Jin.
Behind Zhou Jin came Lu Bozhou.
Looking at the names on the test papers, the emperor felt a little emotional.
The seventeen-year-old champion!
Since the founding of my dynasty, there has never been such a young champion.
Not only young, but also talented.
The emperor turned his robe and walked forward.
Time flies.
Soon it was time to hand in the paper.
After submitting the papers, the examiners will mark them in class.
In less than an hour, the ranking was placed before the emperor.
"Zhou Jin, Lu Bozhou, Chen Shu."
The emperor pondered for a moment, then took out a red pen and circled Lu Bozhou's name.
"Your Majesty has chosen Lu Bozhou from Nanli County, Jingzhao Prefecture as the top scholar this year!"
"Your Majesty said: Winning six prizes in a row is a great event for our dynasty!"
The name of this year's top scholar spread throughout the hall and every corner of the imperial city with the singing of officials from the Ministry of Rites.
After reading out the rankings, the emperor summoned Yijia into the palace to talk.
Before the first-class candidate entered the palace, the emperor joked with his ministers: "I heard that Zhou Tanhua is unmarried, my dear ministers, please don't fight later."
After hearing this, the court officials who had daughters at home looked at Zhou Jin with enthusiastic eyes.
Gearing up.
After making fun of Zhou Jin, the emperor looked at Lu Bozhou who was walking in the front: "Lu Zhuangyuan..."
The emperor paused suddenly.
The sunlight outside the hall fell, forming a trapezoid at the entrance of the hall.
Lu Bozhou stood in the light.
But no matter how dazzling the light is, it is not as dazzling as Lu Bozhou's face.
This face looks so familiar!
Soon, the emperor lowered his brows and hid all his emotions.
"Lu Zhuangyuan! You have made a very good point about the people's worries. I am comforted by this."
"I heard that the champion is not only good at writing, but also knows a lot about farming."
The emperor tapped his fingers lightly on the dragon throne, and the smile on his face made it hard to tell what he was thinking:
"I have always wondered why snakes would appear after seven years of planting corn."
Lu Bozhou replied calmly, "Your Majesty, this statement in Qi Min Yao Shu originated from the Records of Natural History written by Zhang Hua in the Western Jin Dynasty."
"According to the observations of my tenants, there are several reasons why there are so many snakes in the corn fields."
"One reason is that corn has a high yield. After the mice steal the corn, they dig holes in the corn fields to hide the grain."
"Secondly, sorghum is tall. It is not easy for people to enter the fields to catch mice. Rats feel safe in sorghum fields, which will attract more mice."
"If there are rats, they will also attract snakes that like to eat rats."
"That's why there's a saying that if you grow corn for three years, you'll get snakes for the next seven years!"
"If you want fewer snakes, you have to kill rats! After killing rats, you can find a lot of food in the rat holes, and it can also feed the people, killing two birds with one stone."
The ministers in the court did not expect that Lu Bozhou actually knew it and could explain it so clearly.
They were all a little surprised.
A top scholar who knows farming?
incredible!
The Minister of Revenue looked at Lu Bozhou with eyes shining brightly, as if he were looking at his own son.
The emperor hesitated for a moment and asked, "Does the champion have any words?"
