Chapter 40 The Long Passing Ceremony

Qianlong was a very nice person.

He is a celebrity himself, so he likes to make some anecdotes out.

He knew exactly what Liu Tongxun and the others were thinking.But that's none of his business.Be good at keeping talents and learning, give a compliment, what's wrong with ordering a champion?Forget about you wronging others and driving them out of the examination room!

A bunch of old, dim-eyed guys.It made me show my face to smooth things over for you.

Of course, Qianlong was just a fat man, he was a sensible person, and state affairs had to be handled according to the rules.

Qianlong also has a temper, the less you call him dry, the more energetic he will be.

For example, thinking about Shanbao being the number one scholar, in fact, he had nothing to do at first, and in his heart, he didn't really want to be the number one scholar.It's not just a matter of talent and learning, Shanbao's lawsuit is too famous.

The students should not be given the illusion of being the champion in the examination room.

Qianlong's mind is very clear, but these old guys, as soon as he leaked a word, they all seemed to be fed arsenic, their eyes bulged out, their tongues were tongue-tied, and they almost foamed at the mouth.Look stupid.Nothing irritating.

Qianlong got into a fight with them, and the result...

Qianlong thought that this pair of "Tanhualang" would be popular for at least three years, Shanbao this child's real talent and learning coincided with the holy will, Qianlong was comfortable from the inside out.He happily filled out the names of the top three with a cinnabar pen, Liu Tongxun and others were ordered to organize the grand ceremony of passing on people to be held in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and Fu Heng accompanied Xinuang Pavilion.

Qianlong laughed softly, and Fu Heng sighed, "My servant has watched Mr. Liu grow ten years older these days." You've passed it a bit.

Not even the little eunuch stayed in the palace, so Fu Heng had to pour a cup of warm tea himself and offer it with both hands.

Qianlong had a thin mouth and no morals, "Liu Tongxun looked like this 20 years ago, he was so wrinkled that he didn't have time to relax." Fu Heng took the tea and touched his hand by the way, Fu Heng coughed and twitched back into the sleeves.

Qianlong drank the newly-arrived Yuqian Longjing, "You can pour yourself a cup and try it."

"Thank you, long live."

Qianlong was very busy with his homework every day, so he drank afternoon tea with his brother-in-law, who was busy.He ran to talk to his mother about his anecdotes with the No. [-] Scholar, No. [-], and Tanhua, and he said in a serious manner, "Thanks to the blessing of the emperor's mother, three hundred officials in this department are the pillars of the country."

The empress dowager laughed, "It's the emperor's virtue that makes all rivers flow into the sea and all races return to their hearts."

The mother and son flattered each other for a while, and Qianlong smiled and showed off to his mother, "Speaking of which, because they are both skilled in fine writing, it's hard to tell which is better for a while. Several university scholars are also in a dilemma, but I thought of a way." Then Let’s talk about the No. [-] Scholar in this subject, the second place in the list, and Tanhua, and let’s add another word, Tanhua is still full of people.

I had an idea, yo, I have the same surname as Huang Erniang.

His empress mother immediately became interested, and asked her name, the empress dowager recalled, "Is it the child who was wronged before. It's a pity that he has such a good talent."

"The sharp edge of a sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold." Qianlong said.

Shanbao goes out of the palace, greets Dong Gao and Yu Xuanda to say goodbye, Mo Yan and the others trotting with their horses come up to meet them.

It's a bit hot in May, at noon, the sun is so big.Shanbao squinted his eyes, covered his forehead with his hands, and got on his horse listlessly.

"Master, I'm not feeling well. Why don't I hire a car?" Liu Xiang asked worriedly.

Outside the Forbidden City, it would be nice to have two willow trees to enjoy the shade, and to hire a car, there is really nowhere to use the money.Shanbao waved his hand, "Let's go, go home, I'm hungry."

"Master, the slave is burning the door nails, why don't you just let it go first."

Shanbao shook his head listlessly.

Finally got out of trouble.freed.

Mo Yan asked curiously, "Grandpa, didn't you say you were in the top ten? Is it the first or the second list? The second list is fine. It's the first time I've seen a slave who passed the Jinshi exam at my age. Who doesn't say that the uncle is promising."

How old is Liu Xiang, and he has a lot of eyes. Although he hasn't studied for a few years, he likes to inquire about things. He has inquired with Yu Zicheng a long time ago, and both the second and third rankings are out. This time he is the top ten candidates in the palace examination. Xuanjian drive.In other words, his uncle had to be ranked No.7 in the second list for the last time, but there were seven of them in the group that just came out, and the rest must be the top three in the first list, my God!

When Liu Xiang figured it out, he opened his mouth wide and was about to speak when he was suddenly too excited, drooling and choking.Lying on horseback, my heart, liver and lungs almost coughed out.

"Brother Xiang, drink water smoothly." Mohen handed over the water bag.

There is no reason for this... Shanbao scratched his chin and thought, no wonder there is such a way of death as "choking to death by drinking water", it is so fast that he can choke half to death with his saliva.

Liu Xiang gasped a little more, his eyes glowed green with excitement, and he was trembling all over, watching Shanbao shudder, and the heat dissipated.

"Grandpa, grandpa, are you the champion?" I usually think you are calm, why do you frown and frighten the servants when you have such a good thing?

Seeing that Liu Xiang was back to normal, Shanbao rode his horse and continued to drive home, "No, it's Tanhua."

Alas, alas!

Look at you old man, how can such a big happy event be treated as nothing.

Excited and visibly unstable.

Dancing and watching frivolously.

You have at least a smile line on your face, if the Chinese Tanhua has the same expression as you, then those who failed the exam should hang themselves to find fault.

Liu Xiang twisted his buttocks on the horse's back, his facial features shifted with joy, and he didn't know that he was Tanhualang.Cough, get down to business first, and tell Mohen, "Hurry up, hurry back and tell your wife the good news." His voice was trembling.

Mohen straightened his collar, let out a loud "hey", and was about to run, but was stopped by Shanbao, "ask the kitchen to serve me a bowl of cold noodles, with shredded cucumber, shredded radish, and soybean sprouts, cut cold Mix the beef with sesame sauce and chili oil to eat."

"Yes, the slave remembers."

"Don't ride fast horses, watch out for passers-by."

Liu Xiang guessed that Shanbao was dizzy from hunger, no wonder he couldn't be happy, and said in a low voice, "Mo Yan, buy a catty of walnut cheese from the pastry shop in front." First, calm down for the uncle.

"No, I can bear it. Go back and eat."

"Master, if you can bear it, the little ones will be scolded. The slaves will come out to serve you, staring at you staring at him starvingly. If you tell me, the slaves will feel ashamed." Mo Yan smiled. Drive the horse to the dim sum shop to buy food.

Banner people all live in the inner city, Shanbao padded two pieces of walnut cheese on the way, added sugar, drank two sips of water, and finally arrived home slowly.

Happy events spread thousands of miles.

The good news of Shanbao's visit to flowers spread with the wind. The masters and servants of all sizes in the house, even the cat kept by the concierge, meowed at Shanbao several times to congratulate him.

As soon as Shanbao entered the courtyard, Dong Eshi came out when he heard the voice, his eyes were slightly red, he grabbed Shanbao's arm and smiled, "Hurry up, come in, you're hungry."

Shanbao rubbed his stomach, "Fortunately, I ate two pieces of snacks on the way."

The delicious cold noodles are ready.

Shanbao washed his hands and ate three bowls in one sitting, then touched his belly and put down his chopsticks, and praised, "The taste is better than usual."

The two little girls went up to tidy up, Feiyan brought a cup of tea for Shanbao to rinse, and said with a smile, "Master can eat anything, this is made by Madam Zheng herself. Madam is a good hand Even the cooks in the mansion can't compare to pasta."

Shanbao was slightly surprised, he is not suitable for this old lady, why are you rushing to curry favor with her today?After filling his stomach, Shanbao also had the energy to speak, and said politely, "It's really troublesome mother, you have worked hard all your life, if you have anything to do, just tell them to do it. For my appetite, no matter how tired you are, I feel really bad about it.”

Madam Zheng blamed herself for her previous short-sightedness and short-sightedness, and said in a deep voice, "Which tablet is this old slave, how can you say that you are tired? It is the duty of a slave to serve the uncle. Hearing the boys come back to announce the good news, the slave is accompanying The wife is very happy for the uncle when she talks. It's just a bowl of noodles, and the servants can still move."

Dong E looked at Madam Zheng with a smile, "Not only you like to eat, but even your uncle likes to eat the noodles made by Madam."

Madam Zheng looked at Dong E and smiled, her feelings were self-evident, and she sighed, "The slaves have grown old after so many years."

Shanbao touched his nose, forget it, everyone has their own friendship.I'm not a heartthrob myself, it's too much to ask people to love flowers and see flowers bloom, so I stood up and said with a smile, "Auntie, sit down for a while, I'll go and see Mr., I guess he's waiting for me."

Dong Eshi nodded, "It should be. Go. I have sent a message to Mr. Yu, saying that you are eating."

Yu Zicheng sighed after Shanbao finished talking about what his Majesty had seen, "Great kindness, great kindness."

Junbao is also very satisfied. Although he is not the number one scholar, Tanhua is also great.

He took Shanbao to the ancestral hall and offered incense to his elder brother.I said in my heart, "Brother, don't worry, Shanbao has grown up, and the middle school has grown up... Well, in fact, the number one scholar belongs to our family... Who told the Han people to be troublesome, and insisted on taking our Shanbao's number one scholar. It was robbed, you have a lot of spirits in the sky, give the screwdriver two dreams, tell them, you know all about it in the underground, wait for them to talk about it... I will definitely marry Shan Baoer Daughter-in-law...carrying on the family line...there are too many matchmakers, but I worry about my younger brother..."

Next is the Ceremony of Biography.

Still have to get up early.

The living conditions of the ancients were incomparably healthy.Facing the cool morning breeze, Shanbao sighed.

The dust of Yijia has settled, although the gold list has not yet been released, but the gossip can't help but spread quickly.Take Shanbao as an example, last night some relatives went to his house with lanterns to give gifts and congratulations.

Shanbao arrived neither early nor late, some people had already arrived in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Junbao purposely entered Shanbao first, because he was an official, so he had to avoid suspicion.

The four examiners, Liu Tongxun, Liu Lun, Ji Xiaolan, and Tatara Lin Zhuo, were surrounded by people. Shanbao approached with a smile and said hello, "Good morning, teacher."

"Hey, Shanbao is here." Liu Tongxun grinned, saluted Shanbao with satisfaction, raised his head with empty hands, "Don't be too polite, today is a good day for you, I should congratulate you. "

Shanbao smiled and said, "It's all cultivated by the teacher."

Dong Gao and Yu Xuanda also came to say hello to Shanbao, and they all had a good impression of Shanbao's initiative to give up the "No. [-] Scholar" and "Second Place".

The champion, the second place, and Tanhuaer are all very busy, the rankings have been announced, and the competitive relationship no longer exists, so everyone has known each other in a friendly manner, and cultivated interpersonal relationships, which may be useful in the future.

"Brother Yalun,..." Dong Gao, whose name is Yalun.

"Oh, brother Leshan, you are also from Changzhou, what a coincidence..." Yu Xuanda, whose name is Leshan.

Hearing other people's politeness, Shanbao suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to have a word yet.

In ancient times, naming names was more complicated. Children were born with a nickname like "Dabao" and "Liuxi". They were given names by their fathers and grandparents when they entered school, and when they became adults, their teachers gave them names.

Nowadays, when people communicate with each other, peers, colleagues or elders often call their juniors by their characters to show their closeness.

Shanbao is young, and it's not time to pick up the characters. These days, he is busy in jail, fighting lawsuits, redressing his injuries, and worrying about the "No. [-] Scholar". Guaranteed, no word yet.

But, fortunately, he is young, everyone is not familiar with him, and no one has said anything.

Today, it is the new Jinshi who stand out the most, and the people in the Ministry of Rites who are the most tired.

Tara Lin Zhuo, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, felt a little trembling now. After dealing with a few tributes, as soon as the people from the Ministry of Music Department arrived, he hurried to make arrangements in person. He must be perfect and make no mistakes.

Because of Shanbao's lawsuit, he talked a lot to excuse Suo Chuoluo Yingliang in the infantry office, and was ashamed by Shanbao on the spot.In the early dynasty, a few stunned youths from the Yushitai participated in the laxity of the spring, and the Ministry of Rites could hardly absolve itself of the blame.Of course, there are also people who joined the infantry and ruled Fuling'an in the yamen.

But Fu Ling'an's background was tough, so he fined him a year's salary without pain, and continued to manage the infantry office.

He Tara Lin Zhuo is also treated in the same way, but his life is obviously not as easy as that of Fu Ling'an.After all, Chun Wei is an errand of the Ministry of Rites. Whoever checks the candidates will issue the number plate.

Some savvy people know that the Ministry of Rites cannot get rid of the responsibility, but Suo Chuo Luo Yingliang has a good conscience, died quickly, and did not implicate others.For the face of the court, Qianlong quickly closed the case.

But Qianlong was not confused. In recent days, when he had nothing to do, he satirized Tatar Lin Zhuo a few words, picked stones from eggs, and tortured Tatar Lin Zhuo so much that he wanted to resign from office.

And reluctant.

This is not a small-scale official. He has spent most of his life as a minister of the Ministry of Rites.Where would you be willing to resign?

He, Tara Lin Zhuo, was suffering so much, he was cautious in everything, he was careful in every step, he didn't dare to make any mistakes, and he hoped that Qianlong could calm down.He was also thinking about whether he should visit the Fucha family and ask Fu Heng to say something nice for him.

For a while, the music sounded.

Below the king, above the [-]th official ranks on Danbi, and civil and military officials in Danchi all wear court clothes and are ranked according to rank.

All the tributes wear official uniforms, arrange the three-branch nine-leaf crown on their heads, and stand behind the east and west shifts of civil and military officials according to their ranks.

The official of the Honglu Temple of the Ministry of Rites set up a yellow case next to the inner east of Taihe, and Liu Tongxun, a cabinet scholar and chief examiner of this exam, placed the yellow list on top of the yellow case.

Everyone is here, everything is ready, everything is ready.

Finally, in the eyes of all the people, Emperor Qianlong sat on a jade chariot carried by 36 people, dressed in a large dress, and arrived with splendor and majesty.

Seated.Everyone knelt three times and kowtowed nine times.

Shanbao was young and his back was sore from exhaustion. I really don't know how those old men survived.When Shanbao did not time travel before, he read a book that nibbling his head was good for his health.Therefore, although the etiquette of the Qing palace is complicated, it actually exercised the bodies of everyone and prolonged the longevity of the princes.

Q for myself, Shanbao listened to the officials of the Honglu Temple begin to proclaim the "Zhi": "On April 30, the 22th year of Qianlong, the tribute scholars in the world were tested. The top three are bestowed with a Jinshi background."

After announcing the "Zhi", they sang the names of the top three winners, and the No. [-] scholar came out and knelt on the left and right sides of the Yudao. Because Shanbao's turn was odd, there was no reason for him to block the way in the middle of the Yudao. The officials of the Ministry of Rites led him to kneel behind the buttocks of the champion Dong Gao.

The names of the first and third persons are sung three times.

Sing the names of the second A and the third A, only sing once, and do not draw out the class, just kneel down and salute.

After singing, Danbi played "The Chapter of Qingping" with great music, and all Jinshi kneeled three times and kowtowed nine times.Then Tatara Lin Zhuo, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, held the list, carried the list with a cloud disk, led the list with a yellow umbrella, and followed the emperor out of the Gate of Supreme Harmony and the Gate of Meridian.

It is worth mentioning that only the top three in the first class can follow Qianlong to walk the middle royal road that only the emperor, the empress' parents, and the emperor's wife can walk, to show his favor.

Qianlong only went out of the Meridian Gate before returning to the palace, and all Jinshi, princes and officials had to follow the list and continue walking to hang outside the East Chang'an Gate.

The number one scholar led all Jinshi to watch the list.

Under the bright sun, the yellow damask hangs high, and the silk reflects light. It is indeed a golden light, and the glory is extraordinary.The top three in Yijia are the imperial pen cinnabar characters, which are even more eye-catching.

Gold list title!

After ten years of hard work, he became famous in one fell swoop.

At this moment, how can the people watching the list not feel excited!

After tossing and tossing for a long time, Shanbao was already sweating profusely.
