Survive in the world of Red Mansions

"Student Lin Rui, you lost again!"

Lin Hai tapped the table rhythmically, and said to Lin Rui who was sitting opposite him with a smile.

"One more game, I don't believe I can't win even one game this afternoon!"

"Okay, don't force yourself, your heart is restless and a little irritable, but this kind of performance is not bad. Yesterday Lin Zhong told me that the attitude of the uncle is really good. After the exam, you don't feel anxious at all. This time Definitely high school! Although you didn't show it, you can still tell by playing chess with you today, you are somewhat anxious about the results of this exam, right?!"

After listening to Lin Hai's words, Lin Rui leaned back and couldn't help but sighed with a smile, "Yeah, I'm really a little anxious. I'm afraid that if I don't get the qualification of a tribute, I won't be able to participate in the imperial examination. Then I will be a fellow Jinshi." I can’t get it back, but I’ll show it to people as a joke!”

"There is definitely no problem in this general examination. You can definitely participate in the imperial examination. At that time, it is hard to say that you will be first-class, and second-class should not be a big problem. In fact, as long as you enter the top ten, j□j of the emperor's ten will choose you as a good candidate."

Lin Rui received it immediately, "Sure, father and son's double visit, not only for us two father and son, but also for the emperor's court, isn't it a happy event!"

"When the results of this exam come out, you will enter the officialdom. What are your plans in the future? Are you going to stay in the Imperial Academy, or work hard as a powerful minister?"

"Father, you really have confidence in me. The results of the general examination have not yet come out, and the palace examination has not yet confirmed whether I can participate. So you are so sure that I will definitely enter the Imperial Academy this time?"

Lin Hai glanced at his son, "Didn't I just say that? As long as you enter the top ten in the palace examination, you must be named Tanhua now. The first and third people all entered the Hanlin Academy at the beginning. Since you are Tanhualang, it is natural that you are the best." You entered the Hanlin Academy from the very beginning, what’s so strange about it?”

"As for the future, let's wait for the results of this exam to come out!"

"That's right, you are still young now, don't worry, just think about it slowly! I don't know how Jingzhi did in the exam this time?"

"Hehe, I don't want to take the exam a second time! I think Xu Jingzhi's level is not bad, and he should have no problem obtaining the qualification of a tribute."

"I should enter the cabinet this year. It is just right for you to enter the court now. I can still watch you for a few years."

Lin Rui was very happy to hear the news of his father Gao Sheng, "Why, the emperor mentioned it to you? Dad, if you want to enter the cabinet, who is going to step down from the cabinet?"

Lin Hai shrugged his shoulders, expressing that he was not very clear, "I guess it's Mr. Zhang Ge. Although he's not the oldest, I guess I'm a little impatient with him early today, but since the Supreme Emperor passed away, there were too many changes in the cabinet ministers. I didn't move him for a while, and it's almost the same now."

"This old Zhang Ge seems to have a grandson who also participated in this test."

"It's not uncommon. There are many children from official families who take part in the provincial and general examinations. If the children of these official families can get the honor of a Jinshi, as long as they are not too incompetent to enter the officialdom, because they have connections, With someone to help, it is easy to go up.”

"Compared with children from poor families, the children of officials and eunuchs have much more advantages!" Lin Hai sighed.

The two father and son chatted about some minor things in other families in the capital recently, and Lin Hai suddenly asked his son, "Ruirui, how are you and your wife doing now?"

Lin Rui felt a little strange, his father asked these, "It's okay, why did you ask this question?"

"Can't you care about you?! What do you think of the little princess?"

"That's it. How are you doing on weekdays? Can't you get it? In the past half a year, the housekeeper director has done a good job. I think this is pretty good."

When Lin Hai heard what his son said, he wanted to say that he didn't want to ask, but after thinking about it, it's really good. It's good to be able to manage the house and manage the board of directors.

In modern times, men and women are clamoring for equality every day, and I don't even think about any kind of love, let alone here, it's really good for my son to be like this!

On the day when Chunwei released the list, Lin's mansion sent people to the Gongyuan early to wait for the news of the list. Lin Rui was in the mansion, and he did not invite other friends of the same year to watch the list together, and only stayed in the study to post it.

Later, Lin Rui switched from regular script to running script, from running script to Yan style, and then to wild cursive. In short, he can do whatever he wants with the paper. He can write whatever he wants, and he can change to any font. Counting the passage of time.

"Master, hit, hit, No.3!"

Xiaobao's excited shouts came from outside, and the voice had already come in before the person arrived. Lin Rui couldn't help smiling when he heard that he had won No.3, it was not bad at all!

Lin Rui waited for Xiaobao to enter the study, and asked, "Did you see my uncle's name, how many?"

"Uncle also won, but the ranking is relatively low, 110th place."

The six out of 110 are not bad. If they can participate in the palace examination, they can all get a Jinshi. Xu Jingzhi doesn't have to worry about entering the examination shed again to suffer.

After the results of the general examination were released, there was no time to meet Tongnian, connect with each other, or attend a party. After a hasty meeting with the teacher, the next imperial examination had already arrived.

On the day of the palace examination, Lin Rui wore a dark blue robe. Although the palace examination would not be searched like the provincial or general examinations, Lin Rui did not bring any extra things to avoid suspicion of plagiarism.

Following the officials of the Ministry of Rites, they entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Three hundred people stood in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. In front of each of them was a low table with pens, ink, paper and inkstones placed on it. Few people have the guts to dare to do such a thing as an impostor under the eyes of the emperor, it is probably because they think they have lived too long.After all these preparations were finished, the tributes standing in the hall waited quietly for the arrival of the emperor.

The emperor was dressed in ordinary clothes and brought more than a dozen people with him. Among them were not only the servants who accompanied him on weekdays, but also more than a dozen high-ranking officials from the imperial court. Lin Rui raised his eyelids and glanced forward, just in time to see his father looking at him , bowed his head again.

After the emperor delivered a message of loyalty to the emperor and the court, the tributes kowtowed and saluted, and only after receiving the emperor's permission could they sit down and start answering questions officially.

The emperor led this group of officials to inspect the Hall of Supreme Harmony for a while to see how the candidates looked, and took them away after a while.

The temple test is limited by time, only one hour, which will test the answering speed of the reference staff.After Lin Rui got the topic, he meditated in his heart and started to draft. After the draft was completed, he checked it carefully and changed a few small places. After changing a few inappropriate words, he checked again and confirmed that there was nothing Questions begin to be transcribed.

Lin Rui's insistence on practicing calligraphy for many years is not without achievements. Now Lin Rui's handwriting, it is no exaggeration to say, is both good and fast. Such a person undoubtedly has an advantage in the palace examination.

After Lin Rui finished all the questions, he checked carefully and carefully for the last time, and after confirming that there were no problems, he sorted out the test papers and put them aside, arranged stationery such as paper and pens, and sat there waiting for the papers to be handed in.

It seemed that it didn't take more than a moment, and the hour had already arrived, and the sound of the gong sounded, and a small official came up to collect the scroll.

Lin Rui thought, no matter what the final result is, his exam career is over, which is a good thing after all! p; "Uncle also won, but the ranking is relatively low, 110th place."
