The rise of the poor

Chapter 364
With the help of Feng Bao, Zhu Pingan replaced the champion's crown clothes. The champion's crown clothes showed a sense of superiority different from other Jinshi everywhere, and it was closer to the court clothes of civil and military officials, the court crown of Erliang, and a pure gold crown hairpin. , and the cyan tassel skirted under the chin.

The gown of the number one scholar is scarlet color, which is different from the blue color of other Jinshi, and it is more conspicuous and extravagant.The belt is the plain silver belt of the sixth grade official, and there is also a medicinal jade pendant with a pearl tassel.

The only thing that bothers me is that the two rows of emerald hairpins on the hat are much larger than Jinshi's. It feels a bit weird for a big boy to wear such two rows of emerald green hairpins.

"The No. [-] scholar is really a good-looking talent." Feng Bao complimented Zhu Pingan after he changed into the No. [-] champion uniform.

"Eunuch Feng is joking. I am probably the number one scholar with the lowest appearance since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, haha." Zhu Pingan shook his head slightly and smiled. With the bonus effect, I can't reach the level of a good-looking talent.

Zhu Pingan and the other three people changed into their crown clothes and returned to the main hall. Several palace people came with trays. On the trays were three cups of imperial wine. Holding the imperial wine, he saluted far away in the direction of Xiyuan, where Emperor Jiajing lived, and then drank it all in one gulp, putting the wine glass on the tray again.

The royal street bragging officially began. In fact, the royal street bragging is actually the process of the champion leading the Jinshi to the left gate of Chang'an to watch the officials post the gold list, and then go home.

Officials from the Ministry of Rites, Honglu Temple and other departments held the gold list and walked at the front. Zhu Pingan led the second place and Tan Hualang in the middle, and the rest of the Jinshi walked behind.

Walk together, but the road is different.

Zhu Ping led the No. [-] and Tanhualang to walk along the royal road of the palace, while the others walked aside.Generally speaking, only the emperor can walk this imperial way, and even the empress only walks once during the big wedding, and then can't walk again.

Of course, Zhu Ping'an and the others can only go this time, but this time is the highest honor for thousands of scholars in the Ming Dynasty!Absolutely the highest honor!An honor to dream of!
Zhu Pingan didn't feel anything when he walked up, but the second place in the back was different from Tanhualang. Zhu Pingan felt wrong while walking, and when he looked back, uh, the two people behind were so excited that they could hardly walk anymore, and their faces It was also an exaggeration to bring two bubbles of tears.
No way, Zhu Pingan looked at the excited two, but after thinking about it, he understood.Among the three great joys in life, they were ranked first in the gold list.

Han Yupeng looked at Zhu Pingan in front of him who was calm and leisurely looking back, and admired him, the champion is the champion, look at the mentality of others who don't like things and don't feel sad, he can't do it.Originally, he didn't expect that he would be ranked second. He has connections but is not strong, far inferior to Ouyang Zishi, a connection household. In terms of level, he was only sixth in the last test. Judging from his grades, he will Yuan Zhu Ping'an and others are much higher level than him, and when the rankings were released in the palace examination, suddenly a second place fell on his head. This kind of great joy, if it is not for the concern that this is the palace hall and Ouyang Zi who is taking care of the front Han Yupeng would probably be able to howl to vent the ecstasy and excitement in his heart.

Walking on the royal road that only the emperor can walk at this moment, the excitement in Han Yupeng's heart is indescribable.

Thinking that there is only such a chance in his life to set foot on the royal road, and also to take care of the two people behind, Zhu Pingan slowly slowed down his pace.

Walking slowly, it only took 10 minutes to get to the Gate of Supreme Harmony, but it took Zhu Pingan nearly half an hour to get to the Gate of Supreme Harmony.

The second place Han Yupeng and Tanhualang looked at Zhu Ping'an's steady pace, wishing to give Zhu Ping'an a hundred praises.

When passing through the gate of supreme harmony, we walked through the middle gate, which only the emperor could walk through. After passing through the gate of supreme harmony, we continued to walk forward, and then we arrived at the Meridian Gate.Meridian Gate is also known as "Wufeng Tower", because there are five gate towers in Meridian Gate, and the main tower is like a phoenix about to fly, so it is called Wufeng Tower.The door opening of the Meridian Gate is a very unique design. From the front, the Meridian Gate has three door openings, but from the back, it has five door openings.When Zhu Ping'an and the others arrived at the Meridian Gate, the guards on duty in front of the Meridian Gate opened the main gate and the tuck gates on both sides, and the tuck gates could only be seen from the side.

Zhu Pingan led the No. [-] and Tanhualang through the main entrance, the civilian officials led the rest of the new Jinshi through the east Yemen, and the military officers walked through the West Yemen.

After leaving the Meridian Gate, there will be more drums and music battles. The gongs and drums are loud, and everyone will play and beat. Under the guidance of the drums and music battles, they will go out of Duanmen and Chengtianmen in turn, and then pass through a very wide square before arriving at Daming Gate. The left gate of Chang'an in the inner northeast corner.

Because the palace examination gold list has been hung on the left gate of Chang'an over the years, the left gate of Chang'an is also called the Dragon Gate, which indicates that the candidates who enter this list will be the carp jumping over the Dragon Gate and become the upstarts that have attracted much attention.

At this moment, the left gate of Chang'an was decorated in a particularly festive manner. A temporary "dragon shed" was built and a large red silk lantern was hung. Zhu Ping'an and the others stepped into the dragon shed to watch the Honglu Temple and the officials of the Ministry of Rites put up the golden list.

The gold list is magnificent, with the seal of "Emperor's Treasure" stamped on it. All the new Jinshi looked at the posted gold list, and tears rolled down their excited eyes.
After the gold list was posted, Shuntian Fuyin, who had been waiting for a long time, led two officials to come forward. Shuntian Fuyin said congratulations, and then involuntarily put a big red silk on Zhu Pingan's body, and put it on Zhu Pingan's chest. It happened to be a big red flower, and another big red flower was given to Zhu Ping'an on the hat.

The other two officials also put big red silk and big red flowers on No. [-] and Tanhualang in the same way.

The rest of the Jinshi looked at the three of them with envy, especially Ouyang Zishi, who looked at Zhu Ping'an with envy and hatred.

Soon, someone brought three tall horses with pure red coats, the saddles were dyed gold, and the whips were woven with gold thread. Zhu Pingan was the first to step on the stool and turn over to ride on the most handsome tall horse. The golden horsewhip walked in the front, Bangyang and Tanhualang followed closely behind on horseback, and the rest of the Jinshi followed on foot, all the way to Chang'an Street.

In front are the guards to clear the way, holding the number one scholar lantern, carrying red and yellow banners and plaques with the words "No.

Of course, the people in the capital were more enthusiastic.

At this moment, all the people in the capital roared onto the streets of Chang'an. All places where people could stand, such as roadsides, shops and upstairs, etc., were full of people. Everyone rushed to the streets, stretching their necks on their toes. , looking towards the street.

Even the girls, who usually don't leave the door and don't walk in the second door, are all dressed up and ran out, wanting to see what the champion looks like.

On this day, it was rare for the family members not to restrain them.

The streets of Chang'an are crowded with people!Thousands of people are empty, let's all look at the number one scholar!
