Liang Emperor Li Qixi looked down at the living beings in the hall from the throne, if not for his good eyesight, he would not be able to see clearly at such a distance.

"Ah Xin, what do you think? Is there anyone who looks particularly outstanding?" He suddenly asked the people around him.

The grey-haired eunuch immediately bowed and replied: "If you want to return to His Majesty, the old slave really can't see clearly at such a distance."

He knew Emperor Liang's temper very well, and knew that his answer just now would not satisfy Li Qixi, so he considered it and continued: "However, this old servant heard that the grand-nephew of Princess Yunhai also participated in the palace examination. Both Sui Qiuwei and this time Chunwei took the leader, but I don't know which one in the palace."

At this time, I am afraid that anyone who is mentioned will not be as Emperor Liang intended. It is better to talk about the Han family who have surpassed the Lord.

Li Qixi thought for a while when he heard the words, and asked, "You mean the Yunshui Han family?"

"Returning to His Majesty, it is them."

Li Qixi didn't know what he thought of, and there was a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth: "Aunt Yunhai has been competitive all her life, and she never gave in to others. How did she get her head? Her grandson didn't see her official career, but she let a nephew do it." head?"

Wu Lixin didn't dare to answer, he had followed Li Qixi since he built his mansion, of course he knew that Emperor Liang didn't like his aunt.

Because the kings competed for the heir during the first emperor's time, Princess Yunhai supported the deceased King Su.

When King You and King Su passed away, and King An and King Rui were exiled to the Southwest, they didn't survive for many years. At that time, the Eldest Princess also went to three successively... These golden branches and jade leaves can't even protect themselves, let alone ordinary officials.

Even though more than 20 years have passed, the protracted power struggle still left its own traces.

Although it may not be voluntary at the beginning, for the Han family, it was a good thing to be able to honor the master, especially Princess Yunhai who was favored by the late emperor, but after the change of imperial power, they had to pay the corresponding price.

Fortunately, before the ownership of the throne was determined, the first emperor let the Yunxi Han family become the master, and with the protection of the Han family, Princess Yunhai was only alive far away now.

However, the Han family also paid a price for this, and no one in two generations could return to Tianjing and return to the center of power.

Now it seems that the Han family is not willing to compromise, and this Han Qi is probably a member of the Han family asking for directions - they want to know if His Majesty still has a grudge if Princess Yunhai is left out.

Judging from the attitude just now, Wu Lixin felt that the Han family had made a good move.

Wu Lixin shuddered, bent his back even more, lowered his head even more, quietly waiting for His Majesty's next words.

Fortunately, Emperor Liang did not continue this topic, but continued to look into the hall. His eyes scanned row after row of desks, and suddenly stopped somewhere.

"Who is sitting there?" Li Qixi pointed, and then asked the minister who was the inspector.

The inspector looked at the position pointed by Li Qixi, and he didn't need to confirm with His Majesty to know who he was pointing at - that child was too outstanding, extremely eye-catching among the crowd.

While flipping through the roster, he replied: "Your Majesty, this person is a Gongsheng student of Yunshui, named Lin Yanhong, who has just turned sixteen this year, and was once the top student in Yunshui's student examination. "

Li Qixi was a little surprised, and then said: "No wonder it looks so special..." It doesn't look big, but its temperament is extremely dusty. It turns out that it is the same as Han Qi, who is a young talent.

"If I remember correctly, Prime Minister Lu was also at this age when he entered the court?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, Lu Xiang is indeed the number one scholar in the 12th year of Baoyuan." The Lu Xiang they are talking about is Lu Wenlue, the emperor Ruizong who has gone through three dynasties.

Li Qixi nodded: "I just don't know if this son of the Lin family can become my Prime Minister Lu..."

Wu Lixin heard that Emperor Liang liked Gongsheng a little, and immediately echoed him: "Now that Kyushu is in peace, all directions are peaceful, and the world's talents gather in Tianjing, I'm afraid that Zhao Xiang, Qian Xiang, and Sun Xiang will come together. It's blinding."

Li Qixi patted the armrest of the throne, and said with a smile: "Come together? You can figure it out!"

Probably thinking of happy things, Li Qixi also became interested, and he sat in the hall for half an hour before getting up and leaving.

What happened in the hall, the dialogue between the emperor and the eunuch, the tribute students in the hall knew nothing, they didn't even know when Emperor Liang came and when he left, they just buried their heads in writing, not daring to delay their breath .

??????

As the evening approached, the city gate to the south of the imperial city opened, and the tribute students who had been sent to the gate by Gong Zhonghua's chariot were picked up by servants waiting outside.

Five days later, they will return here again.

At this time, the seventeen reviewers were ready. On the day of the review, each of them sat at a table and read the [-] scrolls in turn. Among all the volumes, the ten volumes with the most excellent results will be presented to Emperor Liang, and the ranking will be determined by the officials.

Three days later, Li Qixi listened to the official ceremony and said "Love Qing is flat", and saw the ten volumes on the case.

He sat on the throne, and Wu Lixin took the rightmost volume in order and presented it to Li Qixi for viewing.

It was only when he saw the third copy that Li Qixi's eyes lit up. Looking at the name again, he couldn't help nodding with satisfaction: "If you want to be the ancestors, you must use the posthumous ones... This son has a profound idea and fluent writing, which shows his knowledge of skills."

Seeing that Emperor Liang couldn't put it down, Wu Lixin didn't take down the next scroll immediately. After reading it for a long time, Li Qixi spread out the scroll and put it at hand.

Although the examiners in the hall did not see the names in the papers, but from what Li Qixi said, they knew which papers His Majesty was looking at, and they all said in their hearts, "It seems that the number one scholar is almost inseparable. ".

However, they also felt sorry for the people in the next volume???with Zhu Yu in front, I am afraid that no matter how good the answer is in the next one, I am afraid that it will be discounted.

"Embracing both outline and purpose, governing with action..." Li Qixi looked at the next volume and commented: "This word is not bad, beautiful, elegant and harmonious. Although it is regular, it does not lose its character."

When everyone heard that His Majesty only commented on the typeface of this volume and not on the content, they thought to themselves, "That's true", knowing that they were indeed influenced by the previous volume, and it was hard to be brilliant.But to be praised by His Majesty, this test paper has left a good impression on the officials, and the ranking should not be too bad.

Lu Ji, a doctor of Guozijian, is also the examiner of this session. Hearing who made the scroll held by His Majesty, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly: what a pity, what a pity.

He used to be the chief examiner of Yunshuitong's entrance exam, and because he liked a student's humble and pragmatic style of writing, he took him as the head of the case, and he could be his teacher. Seeing his bad luck, and encountering the excellent situation of the first volume, he felt somewhat regretful .

Originally, Imakami liked gorgeous pens, but now that he saw his dossier, I'm afraid he didn't have much interest in it.

However, when everyone was waiting for Li Qixi to continue reading the next volume, he glanced at the names on the volume, and suddenly a figure with a face like a crown of jade and as bright as a bright moon appeared in his mind.

"It turned out to be him... as expected, his writing is just like his own."

Li Qixi was about to close the scroll, but paused at this thought, then spread out this scroll and placed it under the scroll just now.

When everyone saw this, they were all very surprised??????I didn't expect His Majesty to favor this volume!

Soon, Li Qixi finished reading the ten volumes. One side of the table was an unrolled scroll and the other was half-opened. hand, praised again before putting it down.

"Han Qi from Yunshui, Zhao Guangying from Xicang, and Chen Yufeng from Shuling are all good." Li Qixi put the four volumes in the center of the case: "I still have this one, and I love it."

He picked up his pen and made comments on the four volumes one by one: "Since that's the case, it's settled like this."

Upon hearing the words, all the examiners immediately bowed and saluted in response: "Your Majesty's will will be obeyed."

In the 18th year of Renxian, on May [-]st, Luan Yiwei set up Lubo Fajia in front of Taifu Hall, the Music Department and Harmony Department set up Zhonghe Shaole on both sides of the hall, and set Danbi Dale on both sides of the gate.

Below the king, those above eight cents are on the altar, and all civil and military officials are in the altar, waiting quietly in court clothes.

All the newly promoted tributes wear official uniforms and three-branched nine-leaf crowns, and stand behind the east and west shifts of civil and military officials according to their ranks.

The official of Honglu Temple introduced new Jinshi to the position, and the announcement said: "On the first day of May in the 18th year of Renxian, I will test the tribute scholars in the world. The first class will be awarded the Jinshi and the first class. No. 1, Han Qi." Three, each singing three times.

After his name was called, a temple official led Han Qi out of the class, and he knelt down on the left side of Yudao.

Afterwards, the Honglu temple official continued to sing: "No. 2, Zhao Guangying." A temple official led him out of the class, and then he knelt on the right.

After three more roll calls, the official of Honglu Temple held the yellow scroll and said, "No. 3 in the first class, Lin Yanhong."

As the name was called out, all the civil and military officials standing in the Danchi saw a handsome and extraordinary young man being led out of the class, and then he knelt down on the left side of the imperial path.

So far, Renxian's 18-year No. [-] Scholar, the second place in the list and the name of Tanhua have all fallen to his family.

After that, sing the second A and the third A, etc., only sing once, without leading out the class.

After the roll call is over, all the officials from the senior scholar to the third rank and above, as well as the new Jinshi, kneel three times and kowtow nine times.Zhonghe Shaoyue played the chapter of Xianping.

At the end of the ceremony, Emperor Liang returned to the palace with his father.

Liang Guodian used yellow paper for the trial release of the list, with two layers on the outside and inside, divided into big and small gold lists.

After the small gold list is presented to the emperor, it is archived in the palace; the big gold list is stamped with "Emperor's Treasure", and after the roll call, the Minister of Rites sends the emperor's list to the middle gate of Taifu, and hangs it on the wall of the palace outside the east gate.

After the roll call, the champions led the Jinshi to thank the emperor again, and went outside the palace gate to watch the posting of the gold list, followed by a street parade ceremony for the top three.

As the saying goes, the spring breeze is proud of the horseshoe disease, and you can see all the flowers in Beijing in one day.

The name of a boy begins with a single step.

The author has something to say: Thank you Mengmeng Zhuyou for the landmine feeding~! (*???3???)
