Traveling through ancient times, I married an ugly brother

The test is finally over.

This time, only [-] people will be accepted for the examination.

Those admitted are called "Gongshi", and No.1 is called "Huiyuan".

After the general examination, there is the palace examination, and all the admitted tributes can participate. The date of the palace examination is set as the first day of March.

Fortunately, both Zhang Tong and Shen Ziqian won the tribute.

Both of them knew in their hearts that if they didn't have those reference test papers to help them study, they might never have the chance to win the Gongshi in their lifetime.

On the first day of March, Zhang Tong and Shen Ziqian went to the palace to take the exam. The exam room was set at the Wenhua Palace, and the emperor personally planned it in the court.

Examination questions are generally pre-drawn by the cabinet and submitted to the emperor the day before the exam, and then the emperor personally decides.

The examination time is one day, and the papers are handed in before sunset.

The test papers handed in by the candidates after answering are all to be handed over to the sealing officer for sealing.

The sealed test papers are handed over to the examiners, who are selected from the senior court officials who were born as Jinshi.

The task of the examiner is to divide the test papers of these gongshi into three classes, so as to draw up candidates for the top three.

Because the marking time is very short, there is only one day, so if the test papers are not particularly outstanding, they will basically be swept away

A has only three candidates, and this one needs to be selected carefully.

For the other two grades, because there are too many test papers, the scores are more casual and not so rigorous. They are all based on the likes and dislikes of the examiners.

Yijia, also known as "Three Tripod Jia", is the collective name of No. [-] Scholar, No. [-], and Tanhua, and is awarded Jinshi and No. [-].

A number of people in Erjia will be awarded Jinshi background, and the No.1 of Erjia will become a biography."

Several people in the top three were given the same background as Jinshi.

These top three are commonly known as "Jinshi". If a scholar passes the Jinshi exam, then his fame has come to an end.

Those who take part in the palace examination are only ranked but not defeated, that is to say, as long as you can participate in the palace examination, then you can be among the top three at the last time.

On the third day of March, the palace examination results are released.

To release the rankings in the palace examination, a roll-call ceremony will be held in front of the palace, and the names of the admitted candidates will be announced in turn.

Then the number one scholar will be sent to the residence by the Shuntian Mansion to prepare a guard of honor.

Zhang Tong's name is in the middle of the second class, while Shen Ziqian is in the third class.

Both of them are satisfied with the rankings they got, they are already content.

Back at Shen's house, both Zhang's mother and Shen's family learned of the result and were happy for them to come.

In the evening, the two went to the Luming Banquet.

At the Luming Banquet, many dignitaries were among them.

Zhang Tong and Shen Ziqian were introduced by Zhu Xuanyao, and were accepted by Li Taiwei as his disciples. It can be said that their future official career will be unimpeded.

In another day, Shen Ziqian was about to go home.

He told Taiwei Li for leave, he wanted to go home to announce the good news, and he would come back immediately

There is only one mother in Zhang Tong's family, and she is by her side now, so she naturally lives in Beijing.

When Shen Ziqian returned from this trip, it was already May.

Zhu Xuanye's son had already turned one year old. On the first birthday ceremony, the emperor named the little grandson Zhu Yuanyin.

The little Zhu Yuanyin is now able to please people. When he saw the emperor, he would show his millet teeth with "My lord, my lord", and when he saw Zhu Xuanye, he would yell "Father, father" and stay at He Jingyi instead. When I was around, I seldom called "Mother."

Probably children are sensitive. Although He Jingyi brought Zhu Yuanyin by her side, that was all. Apart from breastfeeding the child at the beginning, she has not done anything for the child herself since she was weaned.

Zhu Yuanyin was very sensible, he never called Zhu Xuanye in front of He Jingyi, usually he would call "Father" when Zhu Xuanye took him back to his room when he was sick.

Yes, he was often ill, though not serious, but suffered.

He Jingyi didn't know what Xuan Ye's brother's attitude towards this child was. The other party didn't seem to like this child, and ignored or ignored him, and never took the initiative to see him or hug him.

But if you say you don't like it, every time the child is sick, brother Xuan Ye will take him away to take care of him personally, which makes He Jingyi not sure whether brother Xuan Ye cares about the child or not.

She tried again and again, but still got nothing.

On this day, Zhu Xuanye returned to the mansion, and at midnight, He Jingyi came outside his room with the child in her arms.

She knocked on the other party's door and called out softly, "Brother Xuan Ye, are you asleep?"

After a while, the door opened from the inside, Zhu Xuanye put on a coat and opened the door, but did not let her in.

He Jingyi had no choice but to stand outside the door and said, "Brother Xuanye, Yin'er misses you so much, she is crying for her father." He Jingyi said to Zhu Xuanye with eyes of longing and longing.

Zhu Xuanye glanced at Zhu Yuanyin, saw that there were indeed tears hanging on his eyelashes, so he stretched out his hand and said, "Give it to me."

He Jingyi didn't give Zhu Yuanyin to him immediately, but said: "Yin'er, sleep with your father, okay?"

Zhu Yuanyin originally saw his father stretching out his hand, and he raised his little arm, but after hearing He Jingyi's words, he paused for a moment, but retracted his arm and said, "Mother, I'm here."

He Jingyi said softly: "Do you want father and mother to stay with you?"

Zhu Yuanyin just repeated: "Mother, here."

He Jingyi looked at Zhu Xuanye with a look of embarrassment and said: "Here, brother Xuanye, Yin'er is still young, don't blame him, he wants daddy, but can't do without me, why not tonight,"

Give it to me Before He Jingyi finished speaking, Zhu Xuanye hugged Zhu Yuanyin from He Jingyi's arms, and said, "Go back."

Then he turned and went back to the room, and the door was also closed.

With a sound of "Xuan", Brother Xuanye was stuck in his throat.

She stood where she was, looked at the closed door, and clenched a pair of pink fists. Knowing that the ending was settled, she stomped her feet and turned around to go back.

After Zhu Yuanyin was held in Zhu Xuanye's arms, he immediately stretched out his little arms and hugged his father tightly, as if he never wanted to part again, and exhausted all his breastfeeding strength, which made Zhu Xuanye feel a little uncomfortable .

Zhu Xuanye didn't reprimand him, instead, he patted the baby's back lightly, patted the baby a few times as if comforting, and stroked him gently back and forth, like this back and forth.

It wasn't until a while later that the little guy's arms relaxed.

According to the old rules, he stripped off the baby's clothes and stuffed them into the bed. He also took off his coat, stuck his son to his chest, and fell asleep together.

The next morning, when Zhu Xuanye woke up, he met a pair of Qianjing bright eyes, which were so pure without any impurities.

When the baby saw his father woke up, he grinned, his eyes narrowed, and Zhu Xuanye's momentary absence was replaced.

Seeing such a smile, Zhu Xuanye's eyes softened.

He suddenly didn't want to hand over the baby to He Jingyi, he was going to take the baby out today.

"Yin'er, father will take you out to play today, okay?" Zhu Xuanye asked softly.

"Father, father, come out," said the baby.

good. "Zhu Xuanye quickly put on his clothes, and then asked his servants to go to He Jingyi's room to get a piece of clothes for the baby to go out with.

Yesterday, when He Jingyi hugged her, the baby was wearing pajamas.

After a while, the person who delivered the clothes came, but it was not a servant, but He Jingyi.

After she walked in, she put the clothes beside the bed, turned to Zhu Xuanye and said, "Brother Xuanye, do you want to take the baby out?"

"Yes." Zhu Xuanye said perfunctorily.

"Where are you going? It's inconvenient for Brother Xuan Ye to take the baby alone. Why don't I go with you, so that I can help take care of it." He Jingyi said.

"No need." Zhu Xuanye said lightly.

When He Jingyi heard what he said, her eyes turned red with aggrieved eyes: "Why is brother Xuanye so indifferent to me? Even if brother Xuanye doesn't like me, didn't brother Xuanye say that he would treat me like a younger sister? It is Xuan Yao who is going out with you, will you also refuse?"

Zhu Xuanye was silent for a while, then said, "It's not convenient."

Obviously, the other party was not shaken by what she said, which made her feel very uncomfortable, and even had a trace of resentment.

He Jingyi watched him pick up the small clothes she sent and put them on for Zhu Yuanyin.

The little Zhu Yuanyin lay on the bed, stretching his arms and legs cooperatively, until he put on his little shoes before being picked up by Zhu Xuanye.

After Zhu Yuanyin was picked up by his father, he wrapped his arms around him and buried his head in the socket of his neck.

He Jingyi has been watching the movements of their father and son. She doesn't know if it is her illusion. She always feels that there is an indescribable tacit understanding between them.

Zhu Xuanye went out with his son in his arms. He didn't know where he was going to take the baby, but he just wanted to take the baby out to see the outside world.

They went out and got into the carriage.

The driver didn't ask the destination, but drove towards the other courtyard where the master usually worked.

After the baby got into the carriage, he became very active. He looked around curiously, and was able to be alone with his father.

He looked very happy, and from time to time he would point to something he hadn't seen before, as if asking questions: "Father?".

Zhu Xuanye will tell him at this time, what is the name of this thing.

The father and son interacted like this, and Zhu Xuanye thought of a place to go along the way.

He said to the coachman, "Go to the newspaper office."

There is only one newspaper office in the capital, and that is the "Dajin Daily Office".

The coachman drove the carriage around a corner and came to the door of Dajin Daily.

Zhu Xuanye got out of the carriage with his son in his arms. Everyone in the Dajin Daily was there. The morning meeting had just been held, so no one went out to interview.

Zhu Xuanyao was the first to see his brother, and at the same time saw his eldest nephew

With a sound of "嗤", he first called out "fourth brother", and then excitedly said to the baby in Zhu Xuanye's arms: "Little Yin'er, let Uncle Qi hug you."

The little Zhu Yuanyin was held in Zhu Xuanyao's arms without any resistance. He was still a little unwilling to leave his father's embrace, and stretched out a small arm towards his father, begging for a hug.

Zhu Xuanye just raised his hand to hold his little hand, but didn't hold it back.

Zhu Xuanyao didn't notice the little guy's strangeness. He told his eldest nephew excitedly and asked him to call him "Qihuangshuqi, Huang, uncle."

The baby didn't open his mouth at first, but maybe he thought he was too noisy, so he yelled "Seven" to save face.

"Haha, yes, Qi, Huang, uncle." Zhu Xuanyao became more patient when he heard him calling himself, so he repeatedly taught the baby that he must hear him call him again.

"Seven, Su" the baby finally called out, but he was still too young to know three words, so he omitted the middle words, but this is already very rare.

Zhu Xuanyao was also very satisfied, and kissed him on the cheek.
