Lian Erye's Road to Imperial Examination

Holy decree?

Today is not the day to publish the list, how could there be an imperial decree?Is it possible to notify one day in advance?No, how could there be an imperial decree to notify the mansion?

Full of doubts, Jia Lian went out of her yard and came to Rongxi Hall.

When he came to Rongxi Hall, Jiamu and the others had already arrived.When the imperial decree comes, everyone in the family must come out to receive the decree.

Jia Lian saw a young eunuch, but did not see the imperial decree in the eunuch's hand.

Didn't you say the imperial decree?What about the decree?

"Your servant has met Young Master Jia." The eunuch saluted Jia Lian neatly and respectfully, "Your servant is the little Fuzi who serves in front of the imperial court."

When Jia Lian heard this, his heart shivered, and he was also polite to the little eunuch: "I have seen Eunuch Fu, but I wonder why Eunuch Fu is here?"

"Your servant is the emperor's word of mouth, please invite Mr. Jia to enter the palace." The little eunuch is fair and clean, with two shallow dimples when he smiles, he looks very cute, and he is also very polite to the people of Rongguo Mansion The shelf of the imperial eunuch.

It turned out to be an oral order!

He said when the results of the palace examination were announced directly by imperial decree.

That guy Xing'er really made a mess.

In fact, Xing'er can't be blamed. The whole Rongguo Mansion heard that the eunuch in the palace had come, and he was also the eunuch who served in front of the imperial court. They thought there was an imperial decree when they asked Jia Lian for something.

"Eunuch, please wait a moment, I'll go and change my clothes." When you enter the palace to face the saint, you must clean yourself up, otherwise it would be disrespectful to go to the saint with disheveled clothes.

"Mr. Jia is not in a hurry."

When Jia Lian left to change clothes, Jia Amnesty stuffed the little eunuch with a purse: "Eunuch Fu, do you know why the emperor is looking for my brother Lian?"

The little eunuch smiled and accepted the purse, and said, "Master Jia, don't worry, the emperor just wants to see Mr. Jia, and there is nothing wrong with it."

Hearing what the little eunuch said, Jia Amnesty breathed a sigh of relief, and said gratefully, "Thank you, Eunuch, for letting me know."

The little eunuch saw that Jia Amnesty was generous, and also knew that Jia Lian's future was boundless, so after thinking about it, he sold one.

"Lord Jia, your residence will receive good news soon."

When Jia Amnesty heard this, his eyes lit up immediately, and his expression was a little excited: "Thank you, father-in-law!" After speaking, he stuffed another purse into the little eunuch.

When Jia Lian returned to her room, Mother Zhao was very excited when she heard that he was going to meet the saint. A green bamboo.

The light green clothes made Jia Lian's lips redder and teeth whiter, and Feng'er, who was watching, blushed immediately.

"Feng'er tie my hair."

"Yes, young master." Feng'er's hands were very skillful, and she quickly tied Jia Lian's hair.

"Young Master, you are so handsome." Mother Zhao thought to herself that if she was 20 years younger, she would do whatever she could to climb into the young master's bed. The young master is really good-looking.

After Jia Lian changed his clothes and groomed himself, he left with the little eunuch.

On the way into the palace, riding a horse on the streets of the capital, Jia Lian became a beautiful landscape, attracting the attention of countless people on the street.Many girls blushed when they saw Jia Lian.

The older woman directly asked the people around her: "Which family does this handsome young man belong to? He is really good-looking?" The young girls nearby couldn't help pricking up their ears, wondering where the handsome young man who just passed by on horseback was. Young master.

"I do not know."

"Looking at his demeanor, he must be a child of an aristocratic family."

"I know who he is." Suddenly someone said loudly, attracting everyone's attention.

"who is it?"

"Tell me who he is?"

"Which family is it?"

Seeing that everyone was looking at him eagerly, it was the first time that this person was watched by so many people, and his vanity was greatly satisfied.

"Cough, cough, cough..." The man coughed deliberately, and then pretended to be profound and said, "He is the son of Rong Guogong—Jia Lian, the son of Jia Lian who passed the five-yuan exam!"

People around heard that it was Jia Lian, and exclaimed at the same time: "So it's him!"

When the young girls heard that the good-looking young man who just rode past was actually the famous Jia Lian who passed the five-dollar exam, their hearts beat even more violently, and their love and admiration for Jia Lian grew deeper.

"I heard that Mr. Jia is only 15 years old this year, and he is very likely to win the first prize."

"I heard that Jia Lian was good-looking before, and I thought it was a lie, but I didn't expect it to be really good-looking."

"I heard that Mr. Jia hasn't announced his marriage yet. I don't know which girl will be lucky enough to tell Mr. Jia."

"Five yuan in the exam, and looks so good-looking, the future is limitless."

Everyone gathers together and discusses Jia Lian's matter excitedly.

Jia Lian followed the little eunuch on horseback to the gate of the palace, dismounted and followed the little eunuch into the palace.

This is the second time, when Jia Lian came to the palace, he felt much more relaxed than before, but he was full of doubts, what did the emperor ask him for?

"Eunuch Fu, did the emperor find me alone, or did he also find someone else?"

"Back to Mr. Jia, the emperor first summons you alone, and then summons others."

"Thank you, Eunuch Fu, for letting me know." Why did the emperor summon him alone first?

Seeing the confusion in Jia Lian's heart, the little eunuch said to him: "Mr. Jia, it's like this. After the ministers who graded the examination papers finished correcting the examination papers, they would present the ten best examination papers to the emperor for review. In front of the emperor, they would pass the examination papers to the emperor. The ten test papers were unsealed to reveal the personal information of the examinees, and the emperor ranked the ten test papers, selecting the number one, the second, the third, and the top seven in the second class."

When Jia Lian heard this, his face suddenly became clear: it turned out to be the legendary "Xiao Chuanlu".

The rankings of the final palace examination, including the number one scholar, the second place, Tanhua, and the top seven in the second class, were all formally determined after the emperor summoned them. Finally, the big and small gold lists were filled out, and the rankings were officially released five days after the palace examination.The release of the list in the palace examination is called "Da Chuan Lu" or "Chuan Lu Grand Ceremony".

In fact, before Emperor Longwu summoned Jia Lian and the other top ten, he had already determined the ranking in the palace examination.But I still have to ask the top ten candidates personally, maybe I can surprise him, and then change the ranking at that time.

When the doubts in his heart were clarified, Jia Lian felt more at ease. He thought that there was something wrong with his examination paper and that he would be summoned by the emperor alone.

Wait, the emperor was the first to summon him, does that mean he won the first prize?

Although he was very confident that he would be the No. [-] in the palace examination, he was not [-]% sure. Now that he had really won the No. [-], he still couldn't help being excited and excited.

Uh... I heard from the head of the mountain that during the brief biography, the emperor had to ask some questions face to face, similar to an interview.If you answer well, the interview will be successful, and only in this way can you be sure that you will be the champion in the exam.

He was too happy...Jia Lian quickly calmed down.

The little eunuch brought Jia Lian to the door of the imperial study: "Young Master Jia, wait here for a while."

"Ok."

The little eunuch walked into the imperial study with his head down, and then knelt down: "Report to the emperor, the servant brought Mr. Jia."

"Let him come in." Emperor Longwu put down the memorial in his hand, slightly raised the corners of his mouth and smiled meaningfully.

Jia Lian, who was standing at the gate waiting to be summoned, suddenly felt a chill spread from his neck to his whole body, and he shivered.Why did he feel as if something bad had happened?I hope he is thinking too much.

The little eunuch came over: "Young Master Jia, the emperor let you in."

Jia Lian cupped his fists at the little eunuch: "Thank you, Eunuch Fu."

"Young Master Jia, you are being polite."

Jia Lian lowered his head, walked into the imperial study with a little restraint, then knelt down and bowed: "Student Jia Lian will join the emperor, long live the emperor."

"Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Jia Lian stood up and stood obediently, staring at the floor, not daring to look around.

Seeing Jia Lian's obedient appearance, Emperor Longwu couldn't help but want to tease him: "Raise your head and let me see."

Jia Lian raised her head obediently, revealing his pretty face.Although Emperor Longwu asked him to raise his head, he still didn't dare to look directly at Longyan, his eyes drooped slightly, so he didn't see Emperor Longwu's face.

"When did your kid become so obedient?"

this voice!This tone!

Jia Lian raised his eyes and looked at Emperor Longwu's face. When he saw Emperor Longwu's face clearly, his brain thumped and he exclaimed, "Uncle Lin?!"

What the hell!What the hell!What the hell!

At this moment, Jia Lian felt as if a thousand muddy horses were whizzing by in his head, and he lost his mind.

Seeing Jia Lian's wide-eyed eyes and wide-open mouth, Emperor Longwu couldn't help laughing, "Hahahahaha, I knew you would react like this."

Jia Lian stared blankly at Emperor Longwu, his mind and heart were overwhelmed by the word "fuck", and he didn't respond for a long time.

"Are you surprised? Are you surprised?" Emperor Longwu propped his chin and looked at the stunned Jia Lian with a smile.

Jia Lian was stunned for a long time, finally came back to his senses, and said in disbelief: "Uncle Lin, why are you the emperor?" Damn it, he hasn't woken up yet, he is still dreaming.Actually dreamed that Uncle Lin became the emperor, it was too unreal.

Hearing what Jia Lian said, Li Jinzhong immediately reprimanded him: "Bold, you..." Before he finished speaking, Emperor Longwu raised his hand to stop him.

Jia Lian didn't hear Li Jinzhong's words. At this moment, he pinched his arm stupidly, and a sharp pain hit him, causing him to gasp.

Seeing Jia Lian pinching himself, Emperor Longwu couldn't help asking curiously, "Why are you pinching yourself, brat?"

"Not dreaming."

When Emperor Longwu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing: "Hahahahaha..."

The eunuchs and maids in the imperial study room were all amused by Jia Lian, they didn't expect this Mr. Jia to be so dumb.

Jia Lian looked at Emperor Longwu with disbelief in his eyes: "Uncle Lin, are you really the emperor?" Fuck, this is not a TV series, the Uncle Lin he knew suddenly transformed into the emperor, this is too fantasy.

"Why don't you believe it?"

Jia Lian nodded slightly, and said blankly: "It feels too unreal." It's not acting in a TV series, how could there be such a bloody plot.

"Hahahahaha..." Emperor Longwu's laughter filled the entire imperial study room, even the eunuchs and court ladies standing outside the imperial study room heard his laughter, thinking in their hearts, how could the emperor be so happy?

"I am indeed the emperor." Jia Lian's reaction was so interesting, even more interesting than he imagined.

Jia Lian thought that Uncle Lin was Emperor Longwu, then Grandpa Lin... Suddenly his eyes widened in astonishment, and he exclaimed: "You are the emperor, then Grandpa Lin..." Damn it!Isn't Grandpa Lin too emperor!

Emperor Longwu looked at Jia Lian teasingly: "I am the emperor, who do you think is the old man?"

"The Emperor!" Jia Lian was so startled that he almost fainted, his little heart couldn't take it anymore.

"bingo."

With a bang, Emperor Longwu saw Jia Lian suddenly fell to the ground, stood up in shock, and asked with concern: "What's wrong?"

Jia Lian sat paralyzed on the ground, and said pitifully, "Uncle Lin, I have been greatly frightened, and I can't digest the truth I just learned. Please let me slow down." Jia Lian didn't realize that he called Emperor Longwu, uncle.

When Emperor Longwu heard Jia Lian calling him "Uncle Lin", there was a flash of tenderness in his eyes, and he laughed and said, "I will give you time to digest it."

Sitting on the ground, Jia Lian sorted out in his mind the process of getting to know him, Mr. Lin, and Uncle Lin, and how they got along.

He has always known that Grandpa Lin's identity is not simple, not that he is a rich businessman as he said.He always thought that Grandpa Lin was once a high-ranking official, but he didn't expect it to be the Supreme Emperor!

There is too much difference between a senior official and the Supreme Emperor, okay? It's completely beyond his acceptable range!

The Supreme Emperor... The Emperor... Grandpa Lin is the Supreme Emperor... Uncle Lin is the Emperor...

These two sentences kept recurring in Jia Lian's mind, and he looks like his computer crashed now.

Emperor Longwu looked at Jia Lian sitting on the ground with great interest, frowning for a while, frowning for a while, disbelieving for a while, tangled for a while...the expression was very rich and wonderful.

Li Jinzhong looked at Emperor Longwu, and saw a mischievous smile on the corner of Emperor Longwu's mouth.Then he looked at Jia Lian who was slumped on the ground, looking stupid, and couldn't help but sympathize with Jia Lian, the child must have been frightened to death.

Can you not be scared to death?

Playing chess with him, Grandpa Lin, who often regrets playing chess, became the Supreme Emperor!

Uncle Lin who kept teasing him became the emperor!

No matter how strong his heart is, it is difficult for him to accept this frightening fact.

Jia Lian regretted to death when he thought of how he had always played chess with Grandpa Lin before, blushing and thick necked.Damn, he actually dared to quarrel with the Supreme Emperor, he was so audacious, so desperate...

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu What is he going to do now?

Jia Lian's mood at this time can only be described in one sentence, that is, sadness flows upstream.

Seeing that Jia Lian was about to cry, Emperor Longwu put away the wicked smile on his face and asked with concern, "What's the matter, haven't digested it yet?"

Jia Lian raised his head and looked at Emperor Longwu pitifully: "Uncle Lin, find someone to hit me on the head, it's best to hit me with amnesia."

"Why do you have amnesia?"

Jia Lian said with a look of lovelessness: "In this way, I can forget what happened today." The bloody plot of the TV series happened to him. He didn't feel how lucky he was, but felt that his life was about to die. up.

"Hahahahaha..." Emperor Longwu patted the imperial table and couldn't stop laughing, as if someone had tapped his laughing point.

Jia Lian didn't understand why Emperor Longwu was smiling so happily, so he could only look at Li Jinzhong for help, but when he saw that Li Jinzhong was also smiling, he was speechless.

Emperor Longwu laughed for a long time before he stopped: "You kid...how long are you going to sit on the ground if you don't get up yet?"

Jia Lian said with a bitter face, "My legs are so frightened that I can't stand up..."

Emperor Longwu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed again: "Hahaha, when did you become so timid..." In this world, only this kid dared to quarrel with the old man when he was playing chess with the old man.

"It's different, you have become the emperor now..." He really couldn't stand up.

"Li Jinzhong, go and help him up and let him sit on the chair."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Li Jinzhong walked to Jia Lian's side, stretched out his hand to support Jia Lian, the little eunuch at the side moved a chair, and Jia Lian sat obediently on the chair.

"Xie Lin..." Realizing that he could no longer call Uncle Lin, he quickly changed his words, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"There is no one else here, so you can call me Uncle Lin." He was used to hearing the boy call him Uncle Lin, but he was not used to hearing him call him the emperor.

"Uncle Lin, you and Grandpa Lin, no, will the Supreme Emperor punish me?" A crime of disrespect can kill him.

"Are you afraid that we will punish you?" This kid was actually afraid of this.

"Of course I'm afraid. I used to quarrel with Grandpa Lin..." I can't think about it, the more I think about it, the more afraid I become.

"Don't worry, we won't punish you."

"Really?"

"real."

The emperor kept his promises. Hearing what Emperor Longwu said, Jia Lian felt a lot relieved, and his good-looking face showed the expression of surviving after a catastrophe.

"Okay, enough gossip, let me ask you..."

Jia Lian immediately straightened his back, his expression became very serious and serious.

Emperor Longwu asked some questions about Jia Lian's answers, such as how he thought of going deeper from the perspective of "Jun", what he thought about the measures he wrote, and whether there were any more details.And how to develop the economy and how to strengthen the army.

Jia Lian forgot what happened before, and discussed these issues with Emperor Longwu incessantly.Since he completed the system tasks time after time and upgraded time after time, the books in the system were basically open to him.

There are many books in the system on the development of the economy, the army, the reform of technology, etc., and he has read a lot.Because I have been busy with exams, I don't have time to do this.Now that the palace test is over, he has time to improve his skills.

The more Emperor Longwu heard it, the more frightened he became. Jia Lian was smarter than he imagined, and this kid really surprised him time and time again.

The two chatted more and more enthusiastically, and forgot the time for a while. If Li Jinzhong hadn't reminded that it was time for lunch, the two of them would probably be able to chat until the evening.

Emperor Longwu directly asked Jia Lian to come down for lunch. He probably had a good chat with Emperor Longwu before. Jia Lian forgot to be nervous and restrained for a while, just like when he was sitting and eating together in Mr. Lin's country yard.

While eating, the two continued to chat about the topic just now.The eunuchs and maids who were waiting aside were so shocked that their jaws dropped to the ground.

The emperor treated Jia Lian really unusually. Not only did he stay with Jia Lian for a meal, but he also gave Jia Lian food and asked if it was good.

What is the origin of this Jia Lian to be so liked by the emperor!

"Uncle Li still cooks delicious food." The Uncle Li in Jia Lian's mouth is Lao Li, the royal cook of the Supreme Emperor in the country yard.

"Old Li is the cook used by the old man, so his cooking skills are naturally extraordinary." Emperor Longwu suddenly thought of something, and told Li Jinzhong who was waiting beside him, "This kid likes to eat cakes, go and pack some cakes, and let him take them back later. .”

Jia Lian's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked greedily, "Can you give me a little more?"

Emperor Longwu was amused by Jia Lian's thick skin: "Okay, I'll give you a little more."

"Thank you, Uncle Lin."

After lunch, the two discussed for a while, and then Emperor Longwu let Jia Lian go.

Jia Lian left the palace in a trance. He did not ride a horse when he left, but left in a carriage.Because Emperor Longwu rewarded several large boxes of pastries, Jia Lian couldn't take them back if he rode a horse, so he asked him to go back in a carriage.

On the way back, Jia Lian was still immersed in the great shock that Uncle Lin was the emperor and Grandpa Lin was the emperor, and he always felt that it was unreal.

Soon, the news that Emperor Longwu stayed with Jia Lian for lunch spread to the ears of many people.

The fourth prince laughed happily for a long time when he heard the news, this time the champion was none other than Jia Lian.

Jia Lian won the first prize in the examination and was appreciated by his father, which was very beneficial to him.

After the eldest prince got the news, his mood was not as good as that of the fourth prince.The ministers who supported the eldest prince thought that Jia Lian must be dug over from the fourth prince, and tried their best to pry him over.If Jia Lian is ignorant, the only option is to get rid of him, and Jia Lian must not be allowed to become the fourth prince's biggest help.

When Jia Lian returned to Rongguo Mansion, he gave a box of cakes rewarded by Emperor Longwu to Jia Mu, a box to Mrs. Wang and the others, and a box to Ningguo Mansion.

When Mother Jia heard that it was a gift from the imperial court, she was shocked, and then she accepted it happily.But Mrs. Wang and the others refused, saying that they don't like pastries very much.

Seeing that Mrs. Wang and the others don't want it, Jia Lian couldn't wish for it.The cakes made by the royal chef in the palace were delicious, and he was reluctant to give them.

"Brother Lian, when you saw the emperor, what did the emperor tell you?" Mother Jia looked at Jia Lian lovingly.

"The emperor asked me some questions."

"what is the problem?"

"It's about the palace examination." He would not foolishly tell Mother Jia about the interview today in detail.

"How is your answer, is the emperor satisfied?"

"Should be satisfied."

"Is the emperor only summoning you alone?"

"No, there are others."

When Jia's mother heard what Jia Lian said, a look of disappointment flashed in her eyes.She originally thought that the emperor only summoned brother Lian alone, which meant that brother Lian was appreciated by the emperor.However, the emperor also summoned other people, and brother Lian was not special.

"Tomorrow is the day to release the list, you should rest well today."

"The grandson will leave."

When Jia Lian returned to his yard, he was called to Jia Amnesty's yard.

Jia Amnesty also asked the same question, wanting to know why the emperor was looking for Jia Lian.

"Little biography."

Jia Amnesty looked surprised: "Xiao Chuanlu's words mean that you are among the top ten. Which one were you called?"

"First."

"The first one?" Jia She was surprised and said with a smile, "Hahahaha, I'm going to have a champion son."

"I was the first to go in. It doesn't mean that I will be the number one in the exam. Don't be too happy."

When Jia She heard this, he looked at Jia Lian strangely: "Didn't you have confidence in yourself to be the No. [-] in the exam?"

"I have confidence, but before the list is released, everything is possible."

"I'll be happy when the list is released tomorrow."

"If it's okay, I'll go back and rest first." He had to digest the shock he received today and think about how to face Grandpa Lin in the future.

"Go, have a good rest."

Jia Lian went back to her room and told Mother Zhao and the others not to disturb him if they had nothing to do, and he wanted to have a good sleep.

Lying on the bed, the more Jia Lian thought about it, the more frightened she became, feeling that she was too bold before.But after thinking about it carefully, Grandpa Lin didn't blame him.

How will I face Grandpa Lin in the future?Treat him like before, continue to treat him like an ordinary old man?Or treat Grandpa Lin as the overlord?

By the way, facing Uncle Lin in the future, no, it's the emperor, so we can't be like before.He was a bit rude to the emperor today, and he must treat the emperor with the attitude of a courtier in the future.

Jia Lian tossed and turned in bed, his heart was in a mess, and he really didn't know what to do for a while.He would rather Grandpa Lin and Mr. Lin were ordinary people than the emperor and the emperor.

After Emperor Longwu summoned Jia Lian, he summoned the remaining nine people one by one.After summoning ten people, Emperor Longwu completely fixed the ranking of the palace examination, basically unchanged.It just changed the ninth and tenth previously set, and the rest remained unchanged.

After Emperor Longwu finished his work, he went to eat in the Empress Dowager's Palace at night, and the Supreme Emperor was also there. It was rare for the three of them to have dinner together.

After eating, the Supreme Emperor and Emperor Longwu went to the study, and the Supreme Emperor asked how Emperor Longwu met Jia Lian today.

Emperor Longwu couldn't help laughing when he thought of Jia Lian's reaction when he saw him today: "The kid's reaction was so funny, he was so frightened that his legs became weak and he sat on the ground, unable to get up for a long time. "

The Supreme Emperor could imagine Jia Lian's expression at that time, and smiled slightly: "How did he answer?"

"He answered very well, and he really surprised me again and again." Emperor Longwu was very curious about what Jia Lian's cerebellum was pretending to be.

"This kid's ideas are sometimes unheard of." The Supreme Emperor was often shocked by Jia Lian's "novelty" ideas, and now he is used to it. "You kept him for lunch at noon today. This matter has spread throughout the capital. The fourth brother thinks that Jia Lian belongs to him, and the old man also thinks that Jia Lian belongs to the fourth. The boss will win over Jia Lian in order to pry the corner of the fourth brother. If we can't win over, we will get rid of Jia Lian."

Emperor Longwu knew that the Supreme Emperor was worried about Jia Lian's safety: "How about I send him to Lao Song? Jia Lian stays in Lao Song's barracks, and his safety is absolutely fine."

The Supreme Emperor shook his head slightly: "In today's peaceful and prosperous world, there is no need to fight. Sending Jia Lian to the barracks is useless. It's a waste of his talent."

Emperor Longwu felt that what the Supreme Emperor said made sense, and nodded in agreement: "What you said is that it is useless to send Jia Lian to the military camp."

"Let's send hidden guards to protect him."

When Emperor Longwu heard this, he really wanted to roll his eyes, and said angrily, "You really like Jia Lian..." I don't know how this kid Jia Lian caught the old man's eyes and made the old man so precious.

The Supreme Emperor was too lazy to respond to his son's childish words: "Train Jia Lian well, and he will become the second son's right-hand man."

"I know."

"Jia Lian won the first prize in the examination, which is six yuan, and you will be rewarded with it. What position do you plan to give Jia Lian?"

Generally speaking, the number one scholar in the examination will be appointed to the Imperial Academy to compile and write.However, Jia Lian was different this time. Not only did he win the first prize, but he also won the sixth prize.Not to mention that there was no six yuan in the Dalong Dynasty, it was not in the previous dynasties. It can be said that it is the first six yuan in history.Therefore, it seems a bit ordinary to write for Jia Lian Hanlin Academy.

"Cabinet Servant Bachelor or Hanlin Academy Servant Bachelor." Both of these are official positions from the fourth rank, which are two levels higher than the Imperial Academy Xiuzhuan. You must know that the Imperial Academy Xiuzhuan is only a sixth-rank official.

The Supreme Emperor looked thoughtful: "It's a bit high from the fourth rank, just give him an official position of the fifth rank."

When Emperor Longwu heard the words, surprise flashed in his eyes: "Five-rank? Is it too low?"

"He's still a rookie, so we can't give him a high starting point, the fifth grade is enough."

"Then doctor." Emperor Longwu pinched his chin and thought for a while, "Minister of Industry."

"That kid once said what kind of technology he wanted to develop, and letting him go to the Ministry of Industry just agreed with him."

Emperor Longwu asked Jia Lian to go to the Ministry of Industry, not because Jia Lian wanted to develop some technology, but because the Minister of the Ministry of Industry belonged to the second prince.

"Then the doctor of the Ministry of Industry."

"kindness."

Jia Lian, who was worrying about how to face the Supreme Emperor at home, did not know that his official position had been determined by the Supreme Emperor.

The next day was the day when the list of the palace examination was released, and the grand ceremony of passing on people was held in the Hall of Supreme Harmony on time.

Early in the morning, Jia Lian got up and changed into the Jinshi uniform sent by the Ministry of Rites yesterday.To participate in the Ceremony of Biography, everyone must wear Jinshi uniforms.

The Jinshi uniform sent was dark blue, and when Jia Lian wore it, it made him even more handsome, and people couldn't take their eyes off him.

Jia Amnesty looked at Jia Lian's Jinshi uniform, and was inexplicably moved and proud, and his eyes turned red and wet.

"As expected of my son, he is the pride of Rongguo Mansion."

"Father, go and greet grandma. After paying respects, I have to go to the palace."

"Let's go."

When Jia's mother saw Jia Lian in Jinshi uniform, she was also very moved, her eyes wet, and she said three times: "Good! Good! Good!" No one in the Jia family except Jia Jing was a Jinshi.Now Brother Lian has passed the Jinshi examination, which is the second time for their Jia family to pass the Jinshi examination.

After greeting Jia's mother, Jia Lian went to the ceremony of passing on group of people.

When Jia Lian came to the gate of the palace, he found that the gate was dark and full of people.One part is people in Jinshi uniforms, and the other part is civil and military officials in court uniforms.

Jia Lian walked into the line of Jinshi uniforms and waited for the palace gate to open.He looked around and found that there was no one he was familiar with, and he couldn't find anyone to chat with. He felt a little disappointed, but the people around him were very excited.However, this is normal, after all, the Golden Palace Chuanlu is the most important moment in the hearts of all the students.

Everyone waited and chatted.The most talked about topic is naturally who is the No. [-] pick.Everyone is guessing, is the champion Jia Lian or Su Mingyuan?

The students in the capital naturally thought that the champion was Jia Lian, after all, Jia Lian had won the Huiyuan examination before.The students in Jiangnan certainly felt that Su Mingyuan was the champion. Su Mingyuan lost to Jia Lian in the general examination before, and he would never lose to Jia Lian in the palace examination.

The students from the capital city and the students from the south of the Yangtze River were still arguing on the street about who Jia Lian and Su Mingyuan could win the first prize.

After a period of time, the gate of the palace opened, first civil and military officials entered the palace, and then all the examinees entered.

The moment the palace gate opened, every examinee's expression was very excited.

The Legend of the Golden Palace!It's finally time to start!

After ten years of hard work, I have been waiting for this moment!

Jia Lian was standing in the middle of the team, when he heard the eunuch call his name suddenly, he walked out of the team and stood at the front of the Xinke Scholars. After all, he was Huiyuan, and it was justifiable for him to stand in the first place.Standing behind him was Su Mingyuan, followed by Ming Wanju.

Taking a deep breath, Jia Lian walked into the palace with a serious expression. Behind him were many candidates, all of whom had serious expressions on their faces.

After a while, the voice of the decree was heard from far and near.

"Xuanxin Branch Jinshi enters the temple to face the saint!"

"The emperor has a decree, Xuan Xinke Jinshi enters the palace, and the golden palace is holy!"

The sound is getting closer and closer, and the sound is getting clearer and clearer.

The examinees walked through the palace gates, getting closer and closer to the Golden Luan Hall, and their mood became more and more excited.

Li Jinzhong stood on the stairs and shouted loudly: "The emperor has a decree, Xuan Xinke Jinshi enters the palace, and the golden palace is holy!"

His voice was very loud and penetrating, as if it spread throughout the palace, and his shouts could be heard in every corner of the palace.

All the examinees walked down the stairs at the entrance of the Golden Luan Hall, saw Li Jinzhong standing on the stairs, and heard his shouts, many candidates shed tears.

For all the candidates, they waited for this moment for too long!

Jia Lian didn't feel much at first. After all, he had gone through the college entrance examination in his previous life, so he wasn't as excited as other people. He was probably influenced by the people around him, or the atmosphere around him, which made his heart full of emotion, his nose was sour, and his eyes were red. , with tears in his eyes.

Tilting her head up slightly, forcing back the tears welling up in her eyes, Jia Lian took a few deep breaths, calmed down, and lifted her feet up the stairs.

As long as he walks up the long white jade steps, he can reach the gate of the Golden Luan Hall, and then walk into the Golden Luan Hall, his life's destiny will change.

When Jia Lian walked up the stairs and came to the door of the Golden Luan Hall, he felt a strong sense of accomplishment in his heart.

The civil and military officials who had just waited for the palace gate to open with them were already standing in the Golden Luan Hall, while Emperor Longwu sat high on the dragon chair, with his hands resting on the dragon heads on the armrests on both sides, his back straight, expressionless, The majesty belonging to the emperor not only enveloped the entire Golden Luan Hall, but also spread to the entrance of the Golden Luan Hall.

Feeling the majesty of the emperor, the hearts of all the candidates froze, and they breathed lightly unconsciously, not daring to breathe loudly, let alone look around.They all lowered their heads, looking at their toes or the floor.

"Sing the whip!" Someone yelled the whip.

Then, Jia Lian and the others heard three whips.

The sound of the whip was so loud that it shook the hearts of all the candidates present.

The sounding whip is also called the quiet whip, which is made of Huangsi. The tip of the whip is waxed and hits the ground very loudly. The purpose is to warn the ministers, and it also means to be quiet.

After the whip was sounded, it became even quieter.

Then, the Xinke Scholars entered the hall to face the saint.

Jia Lian was the first in the procession, so he was also the first to enter the palace.With his head lowered and steady steps, he walked in step by step, then stopped, then knelt down, and saluted Emperor Longwu who was sitting high on the dragon chair: "See the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

The candidates who followed Jia Lian also knelt down and followed Jia Lian to salute Emperor Longwu.

"Flat body."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

All the examinees stood up and waited for the golden palace to pass on the group.

The atmosphere in the hall was very quiet, you could hear a needle drop on the ground.

Probably because it was too quiet, Jia Lian became inexplicably nervous, and her heart beat violently.

Minister of Rites walked out of the team, bowed to Emperor Longwu, took the imperial edict from Li Jinzhong, and opened it to read it out.

At this moment, the ears of all candidates perked up.

Jia Lian's hands, hanging by his legs, unconsciously clenched into fists.

The Minister of Rites opened the imperial decree and read out loudly: "In the 22nd year of Longwu, Jiaxu Enke Palace Examination No. 1..."

At this moment, all the candidates held their breath, even Jia Lian held his breath.

"Jia Lian!"
