Shen Chu touched his nose embarrassingly, and said, "Isn't I sleepy? Who knows that I will meet Mr. Zheng from the Ministry of Rites for inspection."

Fan Yong shook his head and smiled, thinking that it really was Shen Chu's style; Su Zhan was star-eyed, thinking that it was really cool for Shen Chu to fall asleep in the imperial examination room.

Shen Chu felt that he had almost lost sight of Su Zhan. Brother Xindao, you almost said that your character design is almost finished, and even if you dare to think of Su Shi from you, you will feel sorry for him.

However, the empress personally wrote the title of this poem, it seems that the meaning of showing favor to the Feng family is obvious, and again it seems that the emperor still respects the empress.

Shen Chu thought about it for a while, then turned his head suddenly, and found that his fat boy was actually pulling Li Di's sleeve, asking Li Di to pick meat for him!God knows how much meat the little guy ate tonight, so he refused his childish request so cruelly!

Seeing that there were already two slices of meat in Zai Zai's bowl, and Li Di wanted to pick up a third slice for him, Shen Chu hurriedly stopped Li Di's hand to pick up the vegetables, and said sternly, "Zai Zai has already eaten a lot of meat, you can't Feed him again!"

Li Di was taken aback.

When Shen Chu came back to his senses, he found that he had actually held his hand, and quickly shrank back like an electric shock, as if he had done something bad. It was obvious that there was no silver 300 taels here.

The atmosphere is a little strange.

Taking advantage of Shen Chu not paying attention to him, Zai Zai quickly stuffed two pieces of meat from his small bowl into his mouth, and while eating, he peeked at his father, his little face showing the triumph and joy of success.

When Shen Chu saw Zai Zai's small appearance in a blink of an eye, he couldn't laugh or cry immediately, and most of the embarrassment just now disappeared.

After dinner and refreshments, the few of them lay under the big locust tree in the yard, basking in the moonlight and the evening spring breeze, so comfortable that their souls were almost out of their bodies.

······

Ten days later, Enke's results were announced.With the experience of last time, Shen Chu didn't get up early to join in the fun, anyway, if he knew sooner or later, it would be the same, so even if he got up early, he might not be able to squeeze in.

Unexpectedly, the genius was bright, and after breakfast, someone came to Baishi Lane with gongs and drums.

Li Yunniang looked excited, thinking that the person who announced the good news was coming to their house, she was so excited for some reason, she went in and out to prepare Xiyin for the guards, and then checked if there was anything inappropriate about her dress, would she give it to herself? The son was ashamed.

Shen Chu couldn't tell whether to laugh or cry, "Mother, the official messenger who announced the good news may not have come to our house. How many students of Taixue live in this alley."

Li Yunniang said dissatisfiedly, "You were the leader of the Taixue last time, why can't it be you this time?!"

Without waiting for Shen Chu to say anything else, the official who announced the good news passed by Shen's house and arrived at the courtyard next door.

Shen Chuxi said: "It seems that Brother Fan must be in high school!" As he said, he picked up Zai Zai and went to the next door to congratulate Fan Yong, Li Yunniang was a little disappointed, but she followed closely, look at this Did the official messenger who announced the good news know Shen Chu's grades, and thought that even if he wasn't Huiyuan, as long as he won, it would be fine.

Sure enough, the official messenger who announced the good news arrived in front of Fan Yong's room, and followed the lively morning inside and outside several floors along the way.

The official chant sang and shouted in front of the door, "Congratulations to Fan Yong, Fan Daguanren High School Huiyuan!"

The festive sound of suona, gongs and drums penetrated the entire courtyard, and the crowd around the audience shouted happily together, and even Zai Zai patted himself happily.

Fan Yong was surprised, and it took him a long time to react. He hastily handed over Xiyin to the official, stroked his forehead for a long time, and still felt unreal.He felt that he performed normally this time, and thought he would be able to win the exam, but he didn't expect to win the first place. He was really surprised. After all, there were Shen Chu, Su Zhan, Feng Jing, and many other foreign candidates. He never thought that he would meet Yuan in high school.

Shen Chu hugged Zai Zai and congratulated Fan Yong. From his point of view, with Fan Yong's upright and peaceful style and talent, he deserved the top spot.

At this time, the officer looked at Shen Chu and said, "Surely this is Shen Chu, a senior official?" Then he cupped his hands and said to Shen Chu, "Congratulations to Shen Chu, the senior official in high school!" It is a pity to get the fourth place, and some envy them, thinking that the fourth place is already a very good result, if they can get a second-class biography, they will almost wake up from their dreams.

In Shen Chu's own opinion, this result is considered very good. After all, he feels that his poetry and prose are not very good. Lu No.4 also thinks that Yao Xiao woke up.

Li Yunniang was also very pleasantly surprised when she heard this result, and hurried forward to hand over the wedding silver that she had prepared earlier to the official.At the same time, Lu Sheng and Zhao Sheng who lived in this yard also won the election, but they just went out early to watch the list by themselves, and they were not in the yard.

The official sent congratulations to a group of scholars and then left, rushing to send congratulations to other candidates.

The people onlookers were overjoyed, they felt that the geomantic omen of this place was really good, there was a member, two Jinshi, and there was a Chuanlu in the courtyard next door.Although there will be a palace test later, and the results have not yet come out, the results of the palace test will not change too much, after all, the difference will not be much.

Fan Yong, Shen Chu and a group of high school candidates were congratulated by the onlookers. Li Yunniang took a bunch of candies from somewhere and distributed them to the people, making everyone feel happy.

Zai Zai was also very happy with everyone, and said generously, "It's all Zai Zai's candies, let's eat together."

Well, the case is solved, Li Yuniang brought Zai Zai's candy from home.

By the time the crowd dispersed, it was already past noon, and the results of Enke almost spread all over the streets and alleys. Fan Yongzhong won Huiyuan, Feng Jing won second, Su Zhan third, Shen Chu fourth, Yuezhou Chen Mingyi first Five, Wang Le No.11, Shen Zhuang No.15.

Shen Chu also paid attention to Zhu Baoyu by the way, and found out that this person has also won the top four, thinking that this person must be crazy after hearing the news, and finally he can go back to his hometown to marry a beautiful wife and have a big fat boy.

At the end of March, the emperor will personally select the top three candidates in the palace examination in Wende Hall. When the rankings are released, the top four and five top candidates will be directly awarded honors according to their backgrounds as Jinshi.Because it is an ad-hoc Enke, candidates will basically not be dismissed in the palace examination. Only according to the answers to the palace examination and the emperor's preferences, the ranking of candidates may be changed.

The questions of the Palace Examination are limited to Examination Time Ce, and the questions of the Tribute Juce are given by the chief examiner, but the questions of the Palace Examination are given by the emperor himself.

There are still ten days before the palace examination, and Shen Chu and the others dare not take it lightly. Facing Emperor Yun's administration and preferences in the past ten years, a series of decrees on the northwest frontier defense, southeast maritime affairs, rich country and strong army, people's livelihood and community, etc., as well as the recent possible In the areas where you want to make a difference, you have made a surprise attack in a targeted manner. Not to mention that the proposed countermeasures are the right medicine and have immediate results, but at least you can come up with an ugly one and make people convincing.

For this reason, Mao Tuan specially compiled a core outline of Emperor Yun for Shen Chu.

Shen Chu was still puzzled, "Didn't you say that you should not provide too much help, so as not to break the balance of this world?"

Mao Tuan was very reasonable and plausible, "Helping the host pass the palace examination and enter the official career can be a step closer to completing the task. The system judges to allow it."

Shen Chu rolled his eyes, well, anyway, the rules are made by the system itself, and the results are also calculated by the system itself, so it's really a rule maker and a referee at the same time.As a man who has burped farts in modern times and can only save himself by passing through books to complete tasks, is he still qualified to criticize?of course not.

He flipped through the outline in his mind, today's son is named Li Xiao, he ascended the throne at the age of 28, and has been in power for more than 16 years now, he is the eldest son of the current empress dowager, and also the elder brother of King Yun.

Of course, there are also rumors of the palace secrets. Today's son was not born by the queen mother, but the queen mother had no children for many years, so she adopted the son of heaven whose biological mother was unknown, and kept her under her knees.But there are very few people who really believe in such rumors. Firstly, because King Yun was born later, if King Yun was born by the queen mother, how could the Deng family of the queen mother's mother family fully support the emperor's ascension to the throne? Second, the emperor has always respected the queen mother. , It is said that he has always loved King Yun since he was a child, so there are very few people who believe that the Son of Heaven is not from the Queen Mother.

Shen Chu also took it as a joke, it wasn't the point in the first place.

Generally speaking, Emperor Yun is a competent emperor, and the North has always had the upper hand in the use of troops against the Hu people. For this reason, the leader of the previous generation of Hu people married his only daughter to the Central Plains, that is, Li Di's mother concubine Wuluo Huangfei; The tribes in the southwest and Baiyue in the south have also always bowed their heads.The treasury has always been quite ample. From the first emperor to the present, there have been more than [-] years of peace and prosperity.

But all the seeds of disaster are buried in the soil of prosperity, just like the sprouts of hope are always buried in the age of war, bursting out the power of life that is unimaginable in the desperate situation.

The most troublesome thing for the emperor at present is that the aristocratic families headed by Deng, Wang, and Feng have deep roots, and they have various marriages with the royal family. It can be seen that the century-old foundation is shaking.

The second is the Hu people in the north.After the leader of the previous generation of Hu people married his daughter to Emperor Yun, the Hu people were divided into two branches, one main and migrated to the south, surrendered to the Central Plains, known as the Southern Hu, and one main war moved north, known as the Northern Hu. .

The power of the Southern Hu and Northern Hu tribes has been ebbing and flowing. In recent years, a powerful leader Gai Yingga has emerged in the Northern Hu, who unified the tribes in the Northern Hu.

In addition, there is the administration of officials. How to balance the selection and appointment of the nobles of the family and the children of the poor, and how to rectify the cliques and corruption of the officials are all eternal problems.

In addition to the core outline, Mao Tuan also compiled a set of detailed materials for the Yunmeng Dynasty for Shen Chu, which is somewhat similar to the detailed core outline compiled by modern geography textbooks.

Shen Chu: "Did you directly pull out the outline of the original author's world setting and give it to me?"

Mao Tuan proudly said: "Hmph, the original author wrote a martial arts article, can the world view be so detailed?!"

Shen Chu: That's right, it seems like you've spent a lot of time getting emotional with you, a fat chick.

These may not be useful, who knows what topic the emperor came up with on a whim, Shen Chu took the information Mao Tuan gave him as local customs and sentiments to read, I have to say, it is quite complete, he does not know if the palace test is useful , but it is useful to understand the world.

In the clean and simple rhythm of life, ten days passed in a blink of an eye, and the day of the palace examination came in a blink of an eye.
