This ghost is cute

It's impossible to get her to undress for inspection!It was even more impossible to turn around and go back now, so Li Suya had no choice but to keep hiding behind the examinee team until she was the only one left. The guard at the door got impatient and called her to come in quickly.Seeing that she couldn't escape, Li Suya immediately yelled that she had a stomachache.These candidates are all talents who participated in the palace examination. Even if the emperor is not selected, they will be appointed by the cabinet to serve as officials in various states and counties. Therefore, the guards did not dare to be too presumptuous. Seeing Li Suya screaming that her stomach hurts, they sent two people to follow her Went to Chu Gong's place.When I got to a place where no one was around, Li Suya said, "You two elder brothers, I have been ill since childhood, have physical defects, and am ashamed to see others. Can you stop taking off your clothes for inspection? I promise I'm not an assassin." He took out two gold ingots from the package, which were given to her by Chu Binger.Originally, the guards were loyal and loyal to their duties, but seeing the two golden ingots moved their hearts, but they were guarding the palace after all, so no one dared to agree first.Li Suya took the opportunity to continue, "Brothers, I really don't have any weapons on me. If you don't believe me, search it. I really have something to hide. I will give these two ingots to you. If I pass the palace test in the future, I will definitely not forget you!" Yes." The guard's salary is very little, although it sounds magnificent to be on duty in the palace, but the annual salary is less than one percent of the gold ingot, so the two were obsessed with money, so they accepted it as soon as they gritted their teeth. The two of them also symbolically took a long knife and slapped Li Suya a few times. In fact, one who seemed to be older whispered, "Remember, when the inspector asks you later, I will say that you have already inspected it." Yes, but you still have to give him a copy, so I'll pretend I didn't see it." After hearing this, Li Suya was overjoyed, and quickly agreed, just as there was only one gold ingot left in her bosom.With the help of the guards, the inspector did not make things difficult. After receiving the last gold ingot from Li Suya, he let her follow the guards into a secret door. Not long after, she stood at the same time as the examinees who had been inspected. At the same time, it seems that these guards and inspectors are not the first time to do these things.Seeing the majestic and majestic palace hall getting closer, Li Suya suddenly thought of Chu Binger. For the first time, she was worried about the other party. She ignored her for the past two days. Now that she is in the palace, she doesn't know It's not safe for her to stay in the guest room.In fact, her worry was completely unnecessary. Not long after Li Suya left the guest room, Chu Binger ran out. She secretly cast a spell on Li Suya, that is, she could see what Li Suya saw in the guest room. The candidates entered the hall one by one, and Li Suya was in the fifth row. In the huge hall, there were only a few people who looked like eunuchs muttering there, and the emperor had not yet arrived on the dragon chair in front.After about a quarter of an hour, a man with the appearance of an official came in and began to tell the candidates to pay attention to some things, as well as some taboos in the palace. After finishing, he said a few words to the eunuch behind him and left.One of the old eunuchs shouted that the emperor was coming, and all the candidates knelt down. Li Suya looked up secretly, and saw a middle-aged man wearing a dragon robe, walked up to the dragon chair and sat down. The eyes are a little scared.The old eunuch next to him said a few words to him, then walked in front of the emperor and said, "All the examinees sit on their own seats and wait for the emperor to open the question." The emperor was not a nonsense person, and said a few words of encouragement After speaking, the first question of the imperial examination began, which was a written examination. First, it was checked whether these candidates were incompetent people who entered for the examination. It can't compare with the other thirty!So this is also the purpose of the emperor himself.The questions are different for everyone, they are all poems and songs, and they mainly examine the writing skills of the candidates. Li Suya has read a lot of these, so facing her own questions, she quickly thought of the answer and picked up the brush Started to write.There was silence in the hall, only the candidates' sighs and smug smiles.The first round of the palace examination ended soon, and then the examinees were arranged to rest in a room in the inner palace, and began to wait for the results of the examination.Li Suya was sitting in a corner with few people, just took a sip from her teacup, when she saw a young gentleman approaching, he bent slightly and clasped his fists together and said, "Young master, can I sit here?" After finishing, he looked at a chair beside Li Suya.Li Suya quickly agreed, seeing that this young master's face and momentum are also very good, and his words are also very polite, she has no reason to refuse him.After the young master sat down, he immediately asked, "Where does this brother live, and which prefecture and county is he a Gongsheng student?" After Li Suya said this, the young master said, "I don't know what you think about the exam questions. , Did you think the exam was difficult just now?"

Li Suya said, "I feel that the questions are very ingenious. They are different from the exams in prefectures and counties in the past. Maybe the palace exam should be stricter." The young man's eyes kept looking at Li Suya, which made her feel a little awkward. She said, "Why are you always looking at me?" The words were already slightly displeased.The young man immediately apologized and said, "Dear brother, don't take offense, I just think you are imposing and imposing, unlike ordinary disciples." He was halfway through speaking, looked around, and saw no one paying attention to him, so he whispered, "My dear brother, don't you You know, many of the candidates here are disciples of wealthy and official families, and some of them are the sons of high officials in Beijing, do you know why?" Li Suya shook her head and said she didn't know, she didn't pay much attention to these things, and no one It is stipulated that disciples from rich and noble families and official families cannot come to take the exam.The young man continued, "Let me tell you, although these candidates are all good, they are not born in a proper way in Kejia from the prefecture or county. They are all bought by spending money to clear up the relationship. It doesn't look any better."

Li Suya was a little surprised. Does anyone dare to play tricks in this palace test?As for exam cheating, she has also seen it, but it is more common in the county, and less in the state. She did not expect that there are still people who dare to do so in the exam room under the feet of the emperor. "Brother, you can't talk nonsense without evidence." Seeing that Li Suya didn't quite believe it, the young gentleman sighed and said, "It seems that you don't know that I have several classmates and friends. They were all replaced by the sons of those high officials. It’s a pity that ten years of hard work was wasted. I was lucky enough to take part in this imperial examination.” Li Suya didn’t want to be distracted by these gossips, the young man said his, She was also all ears, but she just smiled and said nothing.Time passed quickly, and the results of the first palace examination came out. When the eunuch announced the list of personnel for the second palace examination, those whose names were called were naturally so excited that they were dying of excitement. With a disappointed face, he stood there silently in a daze. Li Suya and the young master were also on the list. "It seems that my dear brother has some abilities." The young son praised Li Suya.Li Suya replied, "You're not bad either."

"In the second round of the palace examination, the questions were randomly selected. This time, the emperor personally came up with the questions. Most of the questions were about how to govern the country, and some political and people's livelihood questions." Li Suya was a little surprised when she heard this. know these?Does he already know the topic?Seeing her a little surprised, the young master explained, "Actually, the topic of the palace examination is not a secret for a long time, but the details are not clear. You can find it in many places in the capital. It's just that you are new to the capital and don't quite understand what's in it. It's just a secret."

When she first came to the capital, Li Suya really didn't know anything, so the more this young man talked, the more she felt that this person seemed to be a friend, at least he could tell herself some problems, when a person is alone, what he needs most is is a friend.Later, when the young man asked about her name, she also told him her pseudonym. Of course, it is impossible to reveal her real name. The name of her unworthy younger brother was written on her certificate!The second round of the palace examination started. Due to the lack of many people, the hall became quieter. Li Suya looked at the topic she had chosen, and it was the same as what the young prince said. Her topic was probably how to solve the problem of corruption among local officials. The method of frequent incidents.This question was almost the same as what Li Suya took in the state test before, but the content was more expanded.It's just that Li Suya is not very clear about the administration of officials, and it is difficult to write about this topic.At this time, the emperor appeared from nowhere, and kept looking around each candidate. The candidates may not know it, but outsiders can see that the emperor is standing in everyone's position, and the expression on his face is somewhat Slight changes, sometimes with appreciation, sometimes with disdain, perhaps in the emperor's heart, the list has long been out.

Finally, the emperor stopped beside Li Suya. Li Suya was worrying about this topic, and she didn't realize that the emperor was watching her from behind.In the end, Li Suya really couldn't think of any good answers. Those sensational words are difficult to use on such a topic, and she is not good at it. In the end, watching the time pass by slowly, she had no choice but to take a slant and put her heart The words were written.Just like the first round, it was almost noon after the second round of the imperial examination. The eunuch announced the emperor's reward, and all the candidates' lunch meals would be provided by the imperial dining room. Li Suya quietly wiped the sweat from her forehead, thinking about her answer just now. She felt that she should be passed the imperial examination soon, but this was also the result she wanted. She never wanted to get any official rewards.
