Rebirth: The whole family travels through time together: Fubao Koi is busy eating melons

Suddenly, a deep and powerful voice sounded: "Bye!"

Like a thunderclap, all the candidates fell to the ground in an instant, and the slight "dong dong" sounds of their knees hitting the ground merged into a sea of ​​kneeling.

"Your Majesty, long live your Majesty!"

This chorus of praise not only expressed respect for the imperial power, but also contained the scholars' infinite longing for their future careers.

"Be flat!"

In response to them, there came a majestic voice from the emperor's throne, which was cold and penetrating, as if it could travel through time and space and echo in every corner for a long time.

Outside the Chaoyang Hall, a group of scholars sat around a long desk, officially embarking on the last stage of the imperial examination - the palace examination.

At this historic moment, they are well aware that in addition to literary talent, personal temperament and demeanor are also crucial.

The emperor's eyes moved over each candidate, and he silently expected in his heart that the future pillars of the court would not only have extraordinary talents, but also have handsome looks that matched such talents in order to maintain the royal dignity.

Time passed quietly like fine sand. Some candidates wrote with great swiftness, the ink dancing on the paper, showing their talent like flowing water; others frowned, as if they were fighting fiercely with difficult problems, and every wrinkle was a ravine of wisdom.

Zhang Mingyi had finished the test paper early and was now patiently sorting it out. His calm attitude was as if he was about to present a carefully crafted work of art, which he respectfully handed to the serious-looking examiner beside him.

The emperor sat on the dragon throne, carefully appreciating the literary talent and appearance of each candidate, and secretly gave them a score in his heart. This score may determine the direction of their future destiny.

……

As he stepped out of the palace gate, the heavy burden in Su Shili's heart seemed to be lifted away in an instant, and he looked extremely relaxed and comfortable.

Tan Yulin also took a deep breath of the free air and laughed heartily: "Mingyi, the palace examination is over, I feel like I'm alive again!"

"Yeah, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

Zhang Ming had a gentle smile on his face. He gently patted Tan Yulin on the shoulder and suggested, "Why don't we find a pub and have a few drinks to celebrate the end of today?"

Outside the palace gate, rows of beautifully decorated carriages were neatly arranged, waiting for their owners to return.

Su Shili bid farewell to his two close friends with the courtesy of a scholar: "Thanks to Brother Mingyi for taking care of me these days, I am so grateful that I can't express it in words. I will go back to the inn to rest first and won't disturb your fun. See you later!"

"Take care! Goodbye!"

They both replied in unison.

"Mingyi, Yulin!"

In the distance, Zhang Laoer was calling their names.

At this moment, a clear and pleasant voice interrupted, "Brother Mingyi!"

Yang Yuyu, wearing a light pink dress, floated down from another carriage like a light butterfly.

Hearing the familiar and gentle call, Zhang Mingyi slowly turned around and responded with a faint smile. His eyes were calm, as if he had already anticipated this moment.

"Yuyu."

Yang Yuyu couldn't help feeling a little sad at Zhang Mingyi's indifferent reaction.

She had hidden her deep affection for Zhang Mingyi for a long time, and he always kept a distance from her.

Despite this, Yang Yuyu still tried to adjust her mood and still smiled: "Brother Mingyi, let's go home together!"

Zhang Mingyi did not answer immediately, but just stared at her quietly.

In the sunlight, Yang Yuyu's light pink dress looked even more fresh and refined, and her young face was filled with an innocent smile, which made him feel mixed emotions.

He felt that she was too naive, and any overly intimate behavior seemed to disturb this innocence.

"Come on and get in the car, kid, what are you doing here?"

Zhang Laoer's urging broke the subtle silence, and Zhang Mingyi seemed to wake up from a dream.

……

On the day when the newly-appointed Jinshi were paraded through the streets, the whole capital was in an uproar.

Teahouses and taverns were packed with people. Many noble ladies had reserved seats long ago just to get a close look at the scholars, hoping to find a talented and beautiful spouse among them, adding a touch of brilliance to the family's future.

Xu Liyun stood by the window. There was a lot of noise downstairs. Her eyes moved through the crowd, eagerly looking for that familiar figure.

"Look, my family is at the top of Mingyi High School. When they ride by on horseback later, they will look very heroic and attract everyone's attention!"

Her smile is as bright as a flower.

Zhang Laoer was also full of joy. "The children and Yuyu are in the next box. I plan to secretly take some photos and videos of Mingyi as a permanent commemoration."

Grandpa Zhang looked at the noise downstairs with a smile, his eyes full of anticipation, afraid of missing any precious moment.

As the officials clearing the way moved forward, the sounds of drums and firecrackers intertwined together, deafening, as if to convey the joy to every corner.

Soon, the team slowly came into people's sight. The top three were riding tall horses and wearing bright red flowers on their heads. They were the top three in the imperial examination. They were in high spirits and radiant.

These three young talents looked very heroic while riding their horses, and the smiles on their faces warmed the entire street.

The crowd around them burst into thunderous cheers, and the girls' cheeks were inadvertently flushed with shyness.

"I'm coming!"

Xu Liyun was so excited that she almost jumped up.

Grandpa Zhang stared intently at the front, hoping to see his precious grandson as soon as possible.

Finally, the huge team arrived downstairs of the teahouse.

Zhang Laoer quickly took out his mobile phone and pointed the camera at Zhang Mingyi to record this memorable moment.

"The young man next to Ming Yi is also very handsome and tall! As the third place winner, he really lives up to his reputation."

Xiao Youniang looked at Zhang Ming carefully, then turned her gaze to the people around her.

When Ling Wen heard Xiao Youniang praising others, he felt jealous. He rubbed his nose to pretend to be calm and asked casually, "When you say handsome, you mean handsome, right? Then am I handsome?"

"Huh?? Hahaha... Of course he's handsome, handsome, handsome, handsome!"

Xiao Youniang was amused by Ling Wen's sudden question. She nodded repeatedly while laughing, acknowledging his handsomeness.

Yang Yuyu lay on the windowsill, looking at him with admiration, "Brother Mingyi is so handsome!"

As if he felt the gazes of his family, Zhang Ming raised his head and looked towards the window of the teahouse, with a gentle smile on his lips.

"Second sister, Young Lady, Brother Mingyi saw us and he even smiled at me!"

Yang Yuyu excitedly waved to the people downstairs, her joy beyond words.

"Wow--"

Not only the people upstairs, but also the people on both sides of the street were in high spirits, and the enthusiasm seemed to ignite the air.

Fortunately, the soldiers on both sides of the road stayed at their posts and maintained order, otherwise the frenzy would have gotten out of control.

Zhang Laoer and Zhang Yeye, holding their smartphones in their hands, were as excited as if they had discovered a new continent. They pressed the shutter button hard towards their heroic boy, Zhang Mingyi, who was riding on a tall horse. Every click seemed to record a glorious moment, and Zhang Mingyi looked even more heroic in the camera.
