Be a master through ancient times

After reading the first ten, others don't have to read any more.

The first three points are the top picks, the second place, and the top picks, which are the first.The fourth to tenth are the second-class Jinshi.The others are all given the same background as Jinshi.

Tianhedi sat at the head, and the first three came forward to have an audience.

Chu Ci and the other two went forward to salute together. Tianhe Emperor looked at Chu Ci, then at the other two, and then said with a smile: "It's too early for the champion, with Chu Aiqing's talent and appearance, I should bestow Tanhua Lang's name."

Others saw it, indeed! No.1 Chuci looks gentle and handsome, with picturesque features. No.2 is an uncle in his 40s, neither beautiful nor ugly. No.3 Tanhua is also a young man, but he is a student from the north. He is tall, with broad brows and wide eyes. The word Tanhua sticks with the word Tanhua, which always makes people feel a little out of place.

In fact, if those people don't engage in show operations.The emperor would call the top ten to take a closer look before ranking. If someone among them is extremely good-looking, then it doesn't matter even if his article is slightly worse.After all, in the heart of the emperor, no matter the number one or the tenth, they are all beginners, and they need to practice hard before they can become talents.

But just now, when he saw that the article he read before was not among the top ten, he became angry all of a sudden.This kicker, how about when his father was around?You can live by winking, but you can't do anything else!

In a recent flood in a small Xi County, the regulations were discussed day after day, and papers were handed out one after another. There was nothing useful, but a lot of high-sounding words were said.

He set this matter as a test question, wanting to see what these people think. Who would have expected such a good one just after reading the first article.He also remembered that the officials in the court had been arguing about this matter for several days, and he felt even more uncomfortable.One or two hours for others is better than the solution that the big group of people came up with in a few days, and they immediately turned cold.

It must be that old man Wu Kangzheng saw it, and then speculated on the holy will, and sent him back to his hometown when he went back!

Chu Ci stood at the bottom, and when he heard what the emperor said, he felt unhappy all of a sudden.Does brother rely on his appearance for a living?Brother obviously relies on talent!He was very afraid that other people would come forward and say something, so he really kicked him out of the top spot and gave him the name of Tanhualang.

"Your majesty, according to what I see, you gave him the title of number one scholar, and it's just the right time. If you really give him Tanhua, it won't be beautiful." Already 70 years old.In this era when people live in their [-]s, even the emperor has to give him a little face.Therefore, when he said this slowly, the emperor was not only not angry, but also asked him to explain the reason with interest.

"I have read all the resumes of the students in this year's palace examination. I, Chaotian of the Great Wei Dynasty, and Xie Yuanlang from the thirteen provinces in the first year of the provincial examination, except those from southern Yunnan Province who did not participate in the general examination, the other 12 people all entered the palace examination." The old man spoke really slowly, and the others didn't even know what he meant by that.

"Among the twelve provincial Jieyuan, Xijiang Province's Xieyuan is the most outstanding. If he wins the first place in the general examination, he will be Huiyuan. Now he has been hand-picked by the emperor, and Zhu Biyu has approved him as the number one scholar, that is It's three dollars in a row!"

The old man said leisurely, and stretched out his finger to make a three.

"I think that since the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty, there have been 260 Spring and Autumn Periods. During this period, there has never been a person of Sanyuan and Di. This year, as soon as you succeeded to the throne, there was a person of Sanyuan and Di. It is still you, Your Majesty." It is an auspicious omen that he was chosen from the bottom by himself. It can be seen that God blesses my Great Wei Dynasty, and you are the real dragon emperor favored by heaven! The old minister said that he is the number one scholar, and it is destiny to belong to your majesty. It adds luster!"

Damn!Chu Ci couldn't bear it anymore, this old man really knows how to flatter!He worked so hard to get the three yuan rank, and in his mouth, it completely became the merit of Tianhe Emperor.Such eloquence, admiration!

Tianhedi was silent for a while, then laughed suddenly: "What Zhang Gong said is very true. It seems that all of this is predestined in the dark, and I want to let me find a great talent who will win three yuan in succession."

The emperor obviously understands more words than Chuci.The old man said these words, he chose them himself, he just wanted to excuse the old man Wu Kangzheng.Forget it, listening to his words really makes me feel happy, so let's spare that old man for now!

After Wu Kangzheng listened to Tian Hedi's words, he couldn't help giving Zhang Ming a grateful look.Since the champion was selected, he has been in a cold sweat, and the clothes on his back may be wrung out of water.

After the palace examination, the students left the palace together.The second day is the acceptance ceremony, at that time everyone's ranking will be available.

After leaving the palace gate, Shen Congfei stepped forward to congratulate her.

"Congratulations to brother Chu Sanyuan, who became No. 1 in the history of my Great Wei Dynasty."

"I don't dare to say that! I'm just a fluke. I don't dare to call myself No.1. If I ask others to listen to me, I'm crazy." Chu Ci hurriedly stopped.

"It's because I didn't think carefully enough." Shen Congfei felt apologetic on his face, he was a real gentleman, and he always said what he said.

"Brother Shen, don't worry about it. I know you are really happy for me. I'm afraid people's words are scary." Chu Ci sighed.Like Zhang Gan in the previous session, wasn't he on the list because the rumors were too outrageous?I heard that he was humiliated by this, and after returning home, he let himself go and didn't read anymore.

Li Shangen walked behind them. After hearing Chu Ci's words, he felt uncomfortable. He couldn't help but stepped forward and said, "Brother Chu, I apologize to you for everything before. You saved face for our Xijiang Province. I won’t gossip about you later! Please don’t say any more scary things!”

After he finished speaking, he left in a hurry.

Chu Ci and Chu Ci were left standing there stunned, and after a long time, he said to Shen Congfei: "This...does he mean that he has spoken ill of me before?"

……

The next morning, this group of students came to the gate of the Gongyuan and listened to the roll call official's roll call in public.

Chu Ci heard from a few acquaintances that Li Shangen was ranked 250th. From Chu Ci's point of view, he is indeed quite second, and he said those words without thinking yesterday.The Rossi who held the Plum Blossom Club last time was ranked 230th.He really couldn't tell that the fat man who had an argument with Chu Ci was ranked 180th.

The Zhao Rui I made friends with in the Plum Blossom Club was ranked 160th.Liang Benchang, who had been his guide in the Xijiang Guild Hall, finally won this time, ranking 130th and fourth.Shen Congfei ranked No.90 six.

It seems that there are still a lot of talents outside!

After the name is sung, they put on the black gauze hat and the big red robe, and ride horses through the streets.They had to take a detour from the gate of the Gongyuan, pass through several main streets in the capital, and then go to the Golden Luan Hall to thank the emperor.

According to common sense, Tanhualang would also choose one of the "golden loincloth" peony flowers planted in the Gongyuan, and put it on the side of the hat, and parade the hairpin flower in the street.

Tanhualang's name is Zuo Shiquan. He reluctantly went to the Gongyuan, chose the smallest flower and put it on the side of his hat, then got on his horse, and paraded through the street with the champion and the second place.

Riding on a tall horse, Chu Ci couldn't help but feel agitated in his heart, and truly realized the feeling of "the past was so dirty that it was not enough to boast, but today's debauchery has no boundaries".Then the next step is "the spring breeze is proud of the horseshoe disease, and I can see all the flowers in Chang'an along the way"!

Officials from the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites walked in front holding the hand-picked imperial decree, and there were a number of yamen servants, some leading horses, and some holding quiet avoidance signs on both sides, making a great momentum.

As the saying goes, "the unicorn in the sky is the champion in the world".People are most curious about the No. [-] pick first.When Chu Ci, who was riding a tall horse, wearing a red robe, and a face like a crown of jade, appeared in front of people, the common people in the capital went crazy.All of a sudden, flowers, fruits, jade pendants, silk scarves and other things were thrown at him one after another, making Chu Ci terrified.Fortunately, the streets are relatively wide, and their things cannot be thrown on him.

After reading The Songs of Chu, the common people thought to themselves: Oh my God!The number one scholar looks so good, isn't it possible that Tanhua Lang is Pan An reincarnated and Song Yu reincarnated?

So they craned their necks and looked at the rider behind them.The second place has not been worth seeing since ancient times, skip it!The big guy in front of me looks rough, skip it!However, looking back, there is no one behind.

The common people shouted in their hearts that they had been fooled, and rushed forward one by one, wanting to take another look at Zhuangyuan Lang to wash their eyes.

When they arrived at the gate of the palace, only the three top picks, Tanhua, could enter through the main entrance, and everyone else had to go through the left and right gates.

When the three of Chu Ci arrived, the other scholars stood in front of the hall and waited for Chu Ci, waiting for Zhuangyuan Lang to lead them to thank him.

After Chu Ci bowed to everyone, he walked in the forefront without hesitation.This time, no one dared to walk ahead of him like in the last rural examination.

……

Outside the palace, Zhang Hu was making dumplings in his house.Suddenly the door was knocked "bang bang bang".

He put down the dumplings, wiped his hands and went out to see, it turned out that it was Chenggui, the boy who played with him before.

"Brother Big Tiger, your master won the first prize! Why didn't you just go out and watch them parade?"

Zhang Hu looked at Cheng Gui, this man called them idiots last time, why did he call him Brother Big Hu today?

Seeing that Zhang Hu stared at him and said nothing, Cheng Gui smiled apologetically, "Brother Big Hu, last time I sprayed feces in my mouth, and I chewed maggots and talked nonsense. You adults don't count the faults of villains, so don't be as knowledgeable as me! "

"Then you still say our master is stupid?" Zhang Hu asked angrily.

Cheng Gui slapped himself with a slap, and said in panic, "Oh, Brother Dahu, please don't mention this again! You haven't mentioned it to Zhuangyuan Lang, have you? I made a mess that day. , and there is no doorman in your mouth, you must forgive my mistake!"

"Hmph! Just as long as you know you're wrong, I'll just say our master can win the first prize! I'll bet one or two taels of silver!"

"Yes, yes, I know I was wrong. No, I set up a table in Chunxi Tower, please do your best to have a meal. By the way, get back the money you won!"

"But... I still want to make dumplings."

"What kind of dumplings are you making? When I get back, I'll make them for you. By the way, Ah Wen and the others are also there. Brother Big Tiger, why don't you give me a favor?"

After hearing this, Zhang Hu looked at the dumplings that were more than half wrapped on the table.He went to the room to get the note, then closed the door and followed Chenggui.

His master said, all the money he wins will be bought for him snacks!He did the math, it seemed that there was a lot of money, he couldn't spend it all, and he had to send some back to his father, let him use it to teach his little nephew, and then he would be able to take the number one exam like a master!
