There is a little husband in the home of crossing

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and all the examinees stepped into the palace gate in a nervous mood. No one dared to look around, and their palms were sweating from nervousness.

Following the guidance of the father-in-law, the examinees came to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, sat down in order according to the ranking, with their eyebrows drooping slightly, respectfully waiting for the emperor to come.

The Hall of Supreme Harmony was so quiet that there was no sound other than breathing.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, there was a great momentum outside the hall, even if the emperor hadn't come yet, they could already feel the astonishing momentum.

"The Emperor is here—"

A bright yellow shadow appeared in the hall, no one dared to look up, and the examinees knelt down one after another: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

"Pingshen." The emperor's voice was very flat, but still majestic. After all the Jinshi got up, the emperor ordered to issue the test questions, with a few simple words: "What is the foundation of the country, what should the officials do, and what should the prosperous world be like?" ", the scope can be very broad or very narrow, it depends on how you answer.

Li Yaonan's brows twitched, the country is based on the people, Fu Lang had already tested him earlier, he did not expect that this time the topic was guessed by Fu Lang again, he really married a gem.

Zhang Qixian was nervous at first, but when he saw the questions in the palace examination, he immediately burst into joy. He admired his cousin's husband so much. At first, he was worried that he would do too well in the examination. Where to put it, there is no face, who knows that I am worried, and the pillow is delivered.

Zhang Qixian is full of confidence and high ambition. He decided that this time, he will also put his cousin on the ground. When he thinks that his performance in the imperial examination is better than that of his cousin, he feels relieved. Don't confess him yet.

Zhang Qixian was dreaming happily, Li Yaonan had already started to answer the test questions, the imperial examination only had two hours, after finishing writing, he had to check and revise, he didn't have so much time to think wildly, this time he was determined to win the first-class Jinshi.

The country is based on the people, and the way to govern the country must first enrich the people and implement benevolent governance.Heroes are the backbone of the country, common people are the foundation of the country...

Li Yaonan concentrated on it, shielding all perceptions from the outside world, and focused all his attention on the answer sheet.

The emperor sat high on the throne, and his eyes calmly swept over the candidates who were answering the questions. These people may be the pillars of his court in the future. When he saw Li Yaonan, the emperor's eyes paused. This was the first time he Seeing this well-known kid for a long time, I didn't expect him to be so young, he was indeed a wunderkind.

Time passed bit by bit, and as the bell rang, the invigilators began to collect the papers. Candidates who hadn’t finished answering were sweating profusely. They watched the examiner take away the test questions, their chests heaved violently, and their eyes were tearing apart. , but he didn't dare to shout, and he didn't dare to shout, because this is the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and the emperor is still sitting on it.

If he failed the imperial examination, at least he was still a Jinshi, but if he behaved in front of the imperial court, it would be a felony.

Li Yaonan was not in a hurry, and always acted calmly. His demeanor made the emperor remember him again.

It took a long time to check the examination papers, and the waiting time was even more difficult. Li Yaonan's heart was rarely tense, even if he pretended not to care, how could Lin Yixuan, who was his bedside person, didn't realize that, in desperation, he could only hold his son and tease him happy.

Xiao Xu'er is indeed a little bastard, grabbing it with her little hand and crying her throat, Li Yaonan is still nervous, her head is about to be made big by her own son, and she feels more and more that a creature like a child is simply too unlovable.

Only Zhang Qixian is heartless, his ranking was picked up originally, no matter how bad it is, it can't be bad, so this guy is very open-minded, doing well in the exam is luck, there is no possibility of failing in the exam, at most it is his name Staying back, no matter what, it is enough to deal with his father. He eats and sleeps well, and he goes out to parties when he has nothing to do, so he doesn't worry at all.

Lin Yixuan hated him so much, he knew that he shouldn't have taken advantage of this guy, so he gave him a few sharp eyes, but it's a pity that Zhang Qixian has a rough nerve, and now he worships Lin Yixuan extremely, and everything he says is good, as for the white eyes, no Sorry, he didn't notice it at all.

Once the three days are up, the emperor's list will be played with gongs and drums. The person who announces the results is the imperial attendant, who is also the emperor's close person. The names are read one by one from the back to the front. Only the top [-] will be selected in the palace examination. The second place, Tanhua, and the second best are the top ten, and the third best are the Jinshi. Those who fail the palace examination are the same Jinshi, whose grade is more than a notch lower than the Jinshi.

The person who heard the attendant's name was crying with joy, and there were people howling at that time.

There are also people who are so disappointed that they can't stop looking around, pricking up their ears to listen hard, only hoping that the next one will call their name.

Some people cry happily, and some cry sadly. The further you go, the more lost people are.

Lu Zhian won the No. 20 three, raised the corners of his lips in a good mood, and let out a deep breath, the hope of his generation of the Lu family rested on him.

Li Yaozu's face was ugly, he didn't have the slightest surprise in high school, No. 18, and he didn't even make it to the top two, one can imagine the pain in his heart.

Immediately afterwards, Fan Pengyi won No.11, and his whole face turned blue. Li Yaonan just wanted to laugh out loud. If he didn't win the second-class, he would not be able to enter the Imperial Academy. No.11 is really a good ranking.

In fact, Li Yaonan didn't know that without him and Zhang Qixian in the imperial examination this time, Fan Pengyi would have been in the second class and ranked ninth, and the two of them just squeezed people out.

No.10 is Ge Honghui, who will try No.13.

No.9 is Shen Hongzhi, who will take the fourth place in the test. He feels a little bit disappointed, but Shen Hongzhi is still very happy to be in the second place. He quickly put aside the disappointment and accepted the congratulations of others with a smile.

……

"Haha, I got it, I got it, I got it, and I knew I would go to high school." Zhang Qixian laughed madly, he didn't expect him to be sixth in high school.

Li Yaonan curled his lips, and was also very happy in his heart, because No.5 is still not him, but Liu Liyang. If the next high school Jinshi is not himself, then he is confident that he will definitely be in the top three this time Well, as long as it's the top one, he doesn't care what the ranking is, what he strives for is fame.

Sure enough, the No. 4 Jinshi was Qi Yunshan. This old man was indeed talented and learned. Although he fell into the second class this time, his grades are already very good.

Then, the officials set off firecrackers, Li Yaonan's eyes were burning, and his eyes were fixed on the front.

As the attendant read out his name, Li Yaonan suddenly took a few steps forward excitedly.

"Where is Li Yaonan? Where is Tanhualang?" The imperial attendant read aloud, his eyes scanning the crowd.

"Here." Li Yaonan laughed loudly, letting go of the rock in his heart, Tanhualang, he likes this title.

"Congratulations to Tanhualang, congratulations to Tanhualang, and please Tanhualang to change clothes." Another official came over with the clothes, smiling obsequiously.

Li Yaonan was also very generous, as soon as he made a move, he paid 20 taels, and the official sent a lot of money, so he was very happy.

Immediately after that, the name in front of him was already called No. [-] in Jinke. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be Chang Hehui. Li Yaonan originally thought that Chang Hehui would become the No. [-] in Jinke.

"Where is Li Mingzhang? Where is Zhuangyuan Lang?" the imperial attendant called out loudly.

Everyone was taken aback, and no one thought that Li Mingzhang would become the No. Others have nothing to say.

Li Yaonan was very surprised. He was a little worried about Li Mingzhang just now, and found that he didn't seem to come today, and the waiter didn't call his name. He thought he didn't do well in the exam, so he didn't bother to come. It seems that the situation is not the same.

An official servant hurriedly replied: "Reporting to my lord, it seems that Zhuangyuan Lang hasn't come today."

The imperial attendant frowned, then seemed to think of something, his brows relaxed again in a flash, and said lightly: "Go to his house to summon him, he will be paraded in the street later today, and he will face the saint tomorrow."

"Yes." The officer responded, called a few people, beat gongs and drums all the way, and ran straight to Beiweihou Mansion.

Li Yaonan and Chang Hehui were old acquaintances, they greeted each other, sat quietly in the yamen and waited, not saying a word.

Chang Hehui is in his forties this year, and he can't tell his character just by listening to his conversation, but just looking at his pair of wise eyes, Li Yaonan has a bottom line in his mind, this person is definitely not easy to fool, the two of them practice Tai Chi each other, there is no Mention a serious matter, but also have a good conversation.

Not long after, Li Mingzhang arrived, wearing a bright red auspicious suit and wearing a flower feather on his head. He really echoed the old saying.

There was not much time, so Li Yaonan didn't ask any more questions. The band in front was beating gongs and drums, and the three rode on big horses and paraded through the streets.

For the first time in ancient times, Li Yaonan enjoyed the feeling of being watched.

When he got home, he was already exhausted. Although he likes riding a horse very much, he doesn’t have that hobby for a while after riding a horse for a day. Fortunately, the weather is cold now. If the weather is hotter, he suspects that his legs will definitely be worn out. Bubble.

On the second day, I went to the palace to face the Holy Spirit. All the top [-] candidates in this imperial examination had to enter the palace to give thanks.

It is the first time to participate in the court meeting, and it will be the only time for the Jinshi to participate in the court meeting in the next few years. Li Yaonan watched it very carefully, and followed all the civil and military officials to kneel down and shout long live. It is no wonder that this kind of scene, this kind of momentum, this kind of shock So many people like to be emperor.

And this is still outside the Golden Luan Hall, without the emperor's publicity, they, Jinshi Jinshi, can't get in for the time being.As soon as I thought of this, I heard a high-pitched voice coming from the hall: "Xuan Jinke Scholars have an audience—"

Immediately afterwards, an eunuch outside the hall shouted: "Xuan Jinke Scholars have an audience—"

Then another voice came from not far away: "Xuan Jinke Jinshi has an audience—"

Li Yaonan wiped off his cold sweat, is this the ancient megaphone?Very clever, without time to think too much, followed closely behind Chang Hehui, a group of people followed the etiquette they had learned before, their eyebrows drooped slightly, they could not look directly at them, they put their hands together in front of their chests, slowly stepped into the Golden Temple, knelt down and saluted again : "See my emperor, long live, long live, long live."

The emperor nodded slightly, and the eunuch behind shouted: "Pingshen—"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The emperor nodded, looked at them indifferently, and said a few words of encouragement: "All the nobles are my pillars of the Jin Dynasty. I hope you will work hard in the future to benefit the whole party."

Then, everyone knelt down again and said in unison: "This humble minister will definitely live up to the emperor's expectations."

"En!" The emperor asked them a few more words, and then asked everyone to retreat. This time the worship was quite satisfactory, no one was particularly outstanding, and no one was disappointed, because they all knew that the highlight was the Qionglin Banquet, and that was where they were. If you are lucky, you may be able to win the favor of the emperor if you are lucky.
