Rebirth of the Anti-Bone

The royal garden in the suburbs of Beijing.

The long-awaited imperial examination has come to a successful conclusion, and the turmoil in the imperial court three years ago has gradually subsided, and the blood has faded, so it also shows vitality.

This was Da Chu's first scientific examination in the past three years, and the emperor attached great importance to it.The students all know that there are many official vacancies no matter in the capital or in the localities.So everyone tried their best to show their faces.

Sure enough, after the scientific examination this time, the emperor personally appointed the leader, the top three, and even gave a Qionglin banquet in the royal garden to entertain the students of the entire Great Chu.

"A Ming, congratulations on winning the crown of Tan Hua Lang."

Su Ming was surrounded by a large group of people, all congratulating him.

Su Ming has always maintained a reserved smile, neither too proud nor too humble, and the young man's face is as jade-like, and his every frown and smile are full of coquettishness, he actually stunned a group of students.

"Su Ming was just lucky, His Majesty praised him." Su Ming raised the corners of his mouth slightly, his face flushed slightly.

A stunned young man couldn't help but continued, "Obviously A Ming's articles are unparalleled in the world, but the group of scholars from the Imperial Academy, who don't know gold and jade, actually said that A Ming's articles are too realistic and not suitable for the national conditions." , in my opinion, it is more than enough for Ah Ming to win the first prize."

"That's right, that Yang Xin is not worthy of the title of the number one scholar. He is just a country boy with mud legs. He has won His Majesty's favor and only reached the sky in one step. I don't know what His Majesty is looking for in him? Could it be? Are you good at farming in the mud?" The boy who spoke had a sour tone, and the look of contempt on his face became more and more obvious.

Su Ming's face turned gloomy, but it only passed away in a flash, and no one noticed.Is he depressed too?Originally, he wanted to make a big splash in the imperial examination three years ago, but he didn't know that during the Great Purge, the imperial examination was postponed, so he could only delay it.

Unexpectedly, this delay lasted for three years. Su Ming watched helplessly as more and more people competed with him. He originally wanted to win the third place, the youngest in Da Chu, but in the end he dragged his age.He is now fifteen years old. Da Chu once produced a 14-year-old genius who won three yuan in a row.

Well, if you didn't win the record, you'd still win three yuan.He successfully won the leader in the township examination and general examination, and he was in the limelight for a while, becoming the biggest favorite for the leader of the palace examination.

But how did he know that Cheng Yaojin would come out of the halfway fight and take away his title of champion.Then Yang Xin was born halfway through, and his grades were not impressive in the provincial examination, but he became a blockbuster in the palace examination, and the essays he wrote surprised the examiners.The emperor applauded again and again after seeing it, and directly named him the leader.

Su Ming was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. He had been preparing for several years, but in the end the peaches were picked by others.

What makes him want to kill people the most is that his article has already won the praise of several examiners, but he didn't know that the newly appointed Minister of Rites said "Your words are too loud".To put it bluntly, his thinking is too "avant-garde" and does not conform to the national conditions of Dachu.In addition, there were still some places that touched the fundamental interests of the family bureaucrats, so he didn't even get the second place in the list, and finally got a No. [-].

Who cares about the name Tanhualang?What he wants is the leader!leader!

No matter how depressed Su Ming was, he still had to show his gratitude to the emperor.

The people around you said a word, and I said a word to criticize the newly promoted No. [-] scholar, but Su Ming just laughed and said nothing.He can't follow others to swear, so why can't he listen to other people's swearing?

Just when Su Ming had a look that was not good, please don't say that, Zhuangyuan Lang still has a real talent and learning expression, a sentence suddenly popped up behind him.

"Tsk tsk tsk, why does this young master smell a sour smell? I didn't see him show his power in the examination room. Now that he's here, he chews his tongue like a gossip woman. It's a shame for a cultural person. Brother Yang, Let's stay away from those people who can't eat grapes and say grapes are sour, so we don't have to lower our grade."

Those teenagers who were spitting all over the place suddenly got stuck, and looked back, yo, isn't that the well-known young master of the Guo family?The Guo family was not affected by the turmoil three years ago, on the contrary, it has improved to a higher level, making people afraid to provoke them more and more.

Isn't the expressionless and dark-faced person next to Guo Hou the new champion who they say is "unworthy"?Come on, the person who said bad things was overheard.

For a moment, those teenagers all shrank their necks, their faces a little embarrassing.

"Brother Guo is right, it didn't bring down our class." Yang Xin said slowly, but his eyes swept across Su Ming's face, and then left with Guo Hou.

Su Ming's face was burning hot, and he almost died of anger, but Yang Xin's eyes told him clearly that he was the one with no class!

These teenagers met the righteous master and were arrested for their pigtails. How could they sit still?Even if there was such a stunner as Su Ming, if they were to be hated, it would be a disaster for Zhuangyuan Lang to wear small shoes for them in the future, so they hurried away.

There was no one around Su Ming in an instant.

Su Ming's face twisted for a moment, they were all trash, useless at all!But thinking of the jade that those people eagerly brought up, he comforted himself that waste still has some effect.

Take a step towards the center of the banquet, where the talented scholars with real talents gather.

With the help of the system these years, Su Ming paid great attention to his image. He always presented himself as noble, talented, and handsome in front of the world.Who doesn't know the famous Mr. Yu in the capital?

"Brother Jin Yu." Su Ming's eyes lit up, and his steps quickened.

Seeing Su Ming, Chu Jinyu frowned first, and then showed a gentle smile, "A Ming."

"Brother Jinyu..." Su Ming showed a bit of grievance on his face, obviously wanting Chu Jinyu to comfort him.

Chu Jinyu suppressed his impatience, and thought that his feelings for Su Ming for so many years were not fake, so he softened his expression, "Don't worry, A Ming, the number one scholar has his strengths, and A Ming is naturally no worse than him."

"Brother Jin Yu knows how to coax me." Su Ming complained, but there was a deep smile on his face.

Chu Jinyu said some nice words to coax him again.

Chu Jinyu has become more mature these years, her immature face is gone, and her emotions are not too revealing.

Three years ago, Yizheng was never found, but the Yi family could not be easily let go. The family was confiscated and sent to the Northwest. At any rate, they were not beheaded and their foundation was preserved.

Later, when the emperor fainted, Chu Jinyu wrote a hundred copies of the filial piety scriptures with his own blood, praying for the emperor's body to recover quickly, and even made himself sick.

The emperor woke up, and when he found out about this incident, he felt great grief. He sent an unknown number of imperial doctors and an unknown number of supplements to the Fifth Prince's Mansion.As a result, Chu Jinyu's foot restraint was also lifted, and Concubine Yi Gui was also released from the cold palace, only relegated to Yi Jieyu.

It can be said that Chu Jinyu has won the reputation of a filial son just by letting out a few bowls of blood. Everyone praises him, and I don't know how many people secretly scolded him for being too cunning.

Knowing that in the eyes of the world, Chu Jinyu has no hope of winning the heir apparent, he put down his airs, and while using each other to resist the prince with the third prince, he bent down to intersect with those literati and military generals, and he actually gained a lot people's favor.Who doesn't like a humble and polite prince?It made the prince, who had gradually grown arrogant over the years, no longer be defiant.

Chu Jinyu knew that once the crown prince fell, the alliance between him and Chu Jinrong would collapse, so he quietly developed new forces in the dark. On the surface, only the third prince jumped up hard, but he was quite honest of.

Chu Jinyu knew that the emperor had become more and more dissatisfied with the prince recently, and even Chu Jinrong was disgusted. Only he, the "poor" and "lonely" fifth prince, was his good son.

People in the world are so weird, they clearly want the elder son to inherit everything, but when the elder son thinks so, and starts to get carried away, he becomes dissatisfied again, and starts to turn his heart to other "powers" who have been "oppressed" by the elder son. On the son of "Single Strength and Weakness".I can't help but want to "rob the rich and help the poor" to help the disadvantaged son.

Chu Jinyu accepted the emperor's "sympathy" calmly, and seized every opportunity to win over talents.The power in his hands was almost gone, and even he himself couldn't help wondering if it was true that he was really unlucky, and it was time to go to the temple to get rid of the bad luck.

After comforting Su Ming, Chu Jinyu was not satisfied, he actually fell in love with the new champion.Zhuangyuan Lang is the most favored by the emperor, and he will definitely be entrusted with important tasks. It would be best if he can be recruited to his side. If not, the crown prince and third prince should not be allowed to.

Thinking of this, Chu Jinyu went to Dengke Pavilion.

The Dengke Pavilion is the best boundary of the royal garden. It is built on a high place, and you can have a panoramic view of the entire suburb of Beijing.Even the emperor would have a banquet there with the students.

Of course the emperor wouldn't come so early, and he just left when he came. Could it be possible that he still wants to accompany these students all the time?Therefore, this Qionglin Banquet is mainly played by the students themselves.Either painting with splashed ink, or discussing articles, they are freehand and romantic, chic and self-satisfied.

The princes are arrogant, and they came here to suppress the situation. They are not as low-profile as Chu Jinyu, who penetrated into the people's hearts, so these students still have a good impression of Chu Jinyu.In particular, the well-known Mr. Yu in the capital is also with Chu Jinyu, which is even more welcome.It can be seen how successful these two people are on the surface.

Chu Jinyu and Su Ming quietly joined the ranks of the students discussing articles, occasionally commenting a few words, which also aroused people's attention.

"Your Majesty and His Highness the Crown Prince are here!" Just after the game was over, someone screamed.

Everyone looked down from the Dengke Pavilion, and they saw a bright yellow guard of honor coming.

The chariots of the emperor and the prince entered the Dengke Pavilion one after the other, which made the students very excited.Especially the students who participated in this imperial examination and got good rankings, they are very happy when His Majesty entrusts them with important tasks.

"Huh? What is the sedan chair that fell behind?" Someone asked.

"That is the sedan chair of His Royal Highness Cheng Wang. His Highness has always kept a low profile."

"Hasn't His Highness Cheng Wang been living in seclusion these years? I heard that his health is getting worse. Why did you come out with His Majesty today?"

"Who knows? Maybe Master Guoshi just came to Qionglin Banquet to be lively."

When the emperor got out of the chariot, the crown prince helped the emperor to come over. Everyone quickly saluted, but their eyes couldn't help but look behind the emperor. His Royal Highness Cheng Wang hadn't come down yet.

The emperor laughed when he saw it, "Yanzhi, it's already here, are you still planning to stay in the sedan chair and not come out?"

"..."

The sedan chair curtain opened, and His Royal Highness Cheng Wang, who was wrapped in thick fox fur, walked out slowly.

Everyone was stunned again, they had heard about His Royal Highness Cheng Wang's beauty, and His Highness Cheng Wang's sickness.Seeing this up close, the impact was too great.

After all, few people had seen Cheng Wang's appearance, and most of them even took a breath.What kind of young master Yu, how can he compare with half a finger of His Royal Highness Cheng Wang?

It's a pity that although people are beautiful, they are too cold!

Those who couldn't take their eyes back, were swept away by His Highness Cheng Wang's snow-like eyes, and immediately seemed to be drenched in ice water, they quickly looked away, and after asking the salute, they dared not look again.

The atmosphere was a little weird for a while.

The emperor found it funny even more, "Come on, get up, kneel on the ground, it won't be good to freeze all my future virtuous officials."

The emperor's tone was relaxed, and the students also breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly invited the emperor and his party to sit down.

The crown prince sat at the head of the emperor, with a haughty expression. Among these people, there must be his future important officials, so the crown prince also took care to restrain his arrogance.

"Where is the number one scholar?" The emperor sat down, first of all he wanted to see the number one scholar.

Yang Xin stood up and listened to the training respectfully.

After a few words of encouragement, the emperor went to look at Cheng Wang, who was silent from beginning to end, sitting away from the crowd like a wooden stake, and shook his head secretly.I don't know who to follow with this temper, the emperor has a bit of a headache.

After the emperor said a few words, he asked the students to show their talents at will. After all, only those people entered the palace examination, and most of them didn't have a chance to show off.

The students scrambled to come up with what they are best at.

Chu Jinheng picked up the teacup and took a sip, his eyes were empty, he didn't know what he was thinking, the excitement in the distance couldn't attract him at all.

The students who wanted to talk to each other were scared back by the cold air.

Suddenly, the students became commotion, because a talking bird suddenly flew outside the pavilion.

"Beauty! Beauty, big beauty!" The colorful mottled bird flapped its wings and landed on the guardrail.

"Huh? That bird looks familiar." A student suddenly said with a strange expression.

Guo Hou, who was so bored that he wanted to sleep, suddenly opened his mouth wide and rubbed his eyes desperately. He thought he was dazzled.

I saw that the mixed-haired bird was not afraid of people, first it pecked a few melon seeds on the table where the melons and fruits were placed, which made the tea-filling girls scream.Then a pair of black bean eyes glanced randomly, and suddenly, as if they had discovered something, the tail feathers trembled all of a sudden, and while yelling "beauty, beauty", they pierced headlong in one direction.

The students were taken aback, this direction is... even the emperor couldn't help but look over.

"Beauty! Beauty! Great beauty!" The daring miscellaneous bird plunged into the arms of His Royal Highness King Cheng!He also took the bird's head and rubbed it on His Highness Cheng Wang's clean, delicate and snow-white chin, feeling satisfied with a bird's face.

color bird!Everyone couldn't help roaring in their hearts.

Guo Hou almost died of fright, isn't that Ankang's bird?To moles His Royal Highness Cheng Wang!The bird's claws almost tore His Highness's collar off!
