The news of Ning Yun Jin Zhong Huiyuan made Ning Taoxu feel so relieved, he made people reward money to the drum band outside the door, and rewarded Qin Ming who reported the letter with a month's monthly salary.

Although acquaintances would come forward to compliment Ning Taoxu and Ning Jingxian whenever they saw Ning Taoxu and Ning Jingxian, but the Ning Mansion did not hold a banquet in a big way, and only the usual close relatives came to congratulate them, and everyone was still holding back their energy , Waiting for the results of the imperial examination ten days later, that's when the candidates will really shine.

However, according to the usual practice, the top three papers will be posted for the world to watch.

Ning Yunjin's age has already attracted attention, and this time he is the Huiyuan, so his paper naturally attracts the most attention.

In terms of neatness and tidiness, anyone who is not sloppy will hardly lose anything, but his penetrating hand and sharp-edged pavilion style are still admirable.However, when the content of his answer was circulated, almost everyone immediately felt that he deserved his name.

After Xu Needn't got the copy of Ning Yunjin's exam paper, he was so amazed to see it, he could hardly contain his excitement, and he didn't care about the palace exam in two days, so he took the liberty to go to Ning Mansion to congratulate him.

Ning Yunjin also has a good impression of Xu Wubu, his friend, and naturally welcomes him into the door.

"Congratulations to Brother Zhishan Senior High School. After reading your article, I am very impressed." Xu Needless to be No. 2 this time, although Ning Yunjin has already had people come to congratulate him, but he naturally wants to say congratulations when they meet.

Xu don't need to be ashamed to say, "I can't compare with you, Yunjin. It's in vain that I'm older than you, but my experience is too shallow."

Ning Yunjin was secretly proud of himself. He knew so much insider information and had the foresight of future generations. Even if the article was not as good as yours, if his knowledge was less than that of his contemporaries, it would be a shame!But they have already won the first place, and it would be hypocritical to talk about being modest, so he could only smile reservedly.

"Brother Wei saw your policy question, and only then did he think of the danger of the empire. When he answered the question, he really didn't expect that there are so many dangers behind the great merchants and the founding of the country." Xu Youyou said with a sigh, "Brother Wei only thought of the big After Shang submits the letter of credence, the border will no longer smoke, and the common people can live a better life, but they have forgotten the wolfish ambitions of the Fengwu tribe, and they will invade the Central Plains one day, which is really too short-sighted."

Ning Yunjin had no choice but to comfort him, "Brother Zhishan's policy question is also extremely good. It summed up the advantages and disadvantages of the two countries after the establishment of diplomatic relations. Speaking of it, my brother is really not as good as you."

Just when the two were being humble to each other, Wen Zhen couldn't help but take out the copy of Ning Yunjin's paper again.

The three examiners in the South Study Room were buried in waiting for the emperor to select the questions for the imperial examination. Seeing no movement for a long time, they secretly raised their heads and saw that the emperor was looking at a copy of the book expressionlessly. They only thought that Wen Zhen was considering those questions , had to continue to wait.

In fact, the corners of Wenzhen's mouth are already slightly curved, but unfortunately due to the angle, no one can see it.

Wen Zhen really didn't expect that this kid Ning Yunjin had such ability to be able to pass the Huiyuan exam. This test paper alone can prove that his Huiyuan is genuine.

For this policy question, he just wanted to select some talents who are keen on current affairs, at least they must be able to see the threat of the Fengwu tribe.He is not surprised that Ning Yunjin has such good knowledge. That kid has the resources of the newspaper and knows the inside story of the teacher's death, so compared to the sharp-tongued policy question, his favorite is naturally that one. poetry.

Unlike the policy question, which described the matter of visitors from outside the Great Wall as extremely dangerous, the poems and prose did their best to praise the current Holy Majesty.

What kind of emperor is diligent, political affairs are prosperous, Lao Yelan, worrying about public opinion, trying to govern everything, and finally he points out that he is comparable to Qin Huang and Han Wu.Although there was not a single word about the submission of credentials by visitors from outside the Great Wall, they implicitly praised the current Holy Majesty's desire to rule the world.

After all, anyone who is familiar with history books knows that only these two greatest emperors ruled the world and expelled the Huns! ?

A provincial examination poem of just [-] characters praised Wen Zhen so much, even though he knew that it was mostly boastful, he still couldn't help but want to agree with it from the bottom of his heart.

After all, these years, he has read books until midnight every day, is diligent in political affairs, worries about the people of the world, and is trying to reform, except for subduing the Fengwu tribe. The block layout is folded in the bag.

Although he loves Ning Yunjin's poem, although some of it is about love for houses and crows, it is also because among those poems that praise the emperor's advocacy of Confucianism, gorgeous utensils, and singing and dancing, only Ning Yunjin really sees his hard work in his eyes Understand.

After reading this beautiful poem over and over again, Wen Zhen once again felt the joy of Bo Ya's confidant when he met Ziqi.After he woke up from his intoxicated thoughts, he couldn't help but pick up a pen and write down a new policy topic. Wen Zhen wanted to see what kind of surprise that kid could give him this time!

Naturally, Ning Yunjin didn't know the surprise of the three chief examiners when they learned the purpose of the question. He spent two days in the mansion peacefully, preparing for the final exam.

Before the official palace test, he had to take another test in the Palace of Preserving Harmony, and he naturally passed without a doubt.The process of the official palace examination was more complicated. Before dawn, he went out with his father and brother at the same time and waited in front of the palace gate.

According to the habit of the court, the later the official came, the later Ning Jingxian brought him to the palace gate, there were already many people standing at the gate of the palace.

It is well known in the capital that the Ning family has a Huiyuan. Many people are waiting to see if the second son of the Ning family can win three yuan in one fell swoop. The number one champion in three consecutive rounds is the youngest one in history!

There are official rules in the officialdom, even if you want to compliment someone, you can't do it in public.Only a few hall officials from the Sixth Department congratulated Ning Jingxian, and praised Ning Yunjin, saying something like "you are awesome, you have to take the exam today, and when the cabinet's grand scholars arrive at the end of the palace gate Just opened.

After entering the palace, Ning Yunjin naturally parted ways with his father. He rushed to the Palace of Preserving Harmony first, and after going through the etiquettes of roll call, unrolling, praise, and salutation, he was finally able to answer the policy questions issued.

Ning Yunjin was taken aback by glancing at the topic of the imperial examination, only to see "On the Disadvantages of the Empire and the Heart of the Emperor" written on the paper, followed by a note in small characters that the length of the essay is not limited.He cursed Wenzhen secretly, making all kinds of fools.You must know that most of the policy questions in the palace examination in previous years only examined a certain aspect of current affairs in the school, but the questions like this time are too general.

If it’s only the first half, it’s okay, just pick out the various disadvantages of today’s Great Xia, and you can always find some answers to questions in today’s society. However, an emperor’s heart is added after the question, which requires the answerer to use the emperor’s heart. Angle, find solutions to these singled out evils, so the difficulty surges.If you only write seven or eight hundred characters in length as in previous years, the length will definitely be too short, no wonder you will add a sentence of unlimited length.

Ning Yunjin glanced around, most of the scholars had already started to write and draw on the drafts, they seemed to be listing them one by one, and some were scratching their heads, looking a little at a loss, it was obvious that these people were all Those who study hard are a little confused when they encounter such a flexible topic, and there will be no such content in the imperial examination reference books.

Among those actions, Ning Yunjin saw some acquaintances, and even saw Sun Benshan, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. His appearance was much thinner than before, but he seemed to be in good spirits.When his eyes swept over a young man, Ning Yunjin was stunned!

What kind of fate is this!

He spat at himself, and for the first time, he prayed unkindly that this examiner would never get into the top three of the first class, otherwise he would be in trouble!

It turned out that the young man was none other than the one who was served by the child bride-in-law during the fleeing tide that day. After all, although other Jinshi would be punished by Wenzhen, they generally dare not raise their heads when they face the saint. Dare to talk too much, if he is allowed to win the top three in the first class and stay in the Imperial Academy... Ning Yunjin suddenly felt that the clouds were covering the sky!

While Ning Yunjin was struggling, Zhu Zhuo, one of the examiners this time, was talking to Li Deming.

Zhu Zhuo is a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, well-educated and well-known in the literary world. What's more rare is that he is cautious, tactful, and good at talking. Wen Zhen also relies on him a lot. He drafted most of the memorials in the past two years. quite familiar.

After the two exchanged a few words of pleasantries, Li Deming said, "Lord Zhu, please do as you please, the emperor just asked our family to see the situation of the palace examination, and I dare not delay your invigilation."

"Boss Li is overthinking. The questions selected by the emperor this time are very innovative, but they are also quite difficult. Even if you want to cheat on these exams, it is difficult." Zhu Zhuo smiled, "I am really looking forward to this year's number one prize. I know what kind of surprises there will be!"

Li Deming was talking to him, but his eyes seemed to glance towards Ning Yunjin's direction, and he couldn't help but feel anxious when he saw that he was looking around and didn't answer at all.Why is this child so lax at the critical moment? The emperor is still looking forward to his papers!

After finding out the news and completing the task, Li Deming naturally left and reported directly to Wenzhen.

"The kid hasn't started drafting yet?" Wen Zhen looked at the time and saw that it was almost noon, and couldn't help frowning, "Ri Mu is about to hand in the paper, will he be in time?"

"That's not right!" Li Deming shook his head, "Others have written two full pages of drafts, why is Mr. Ning not in a hurry!?"

Wen Zhen didn't know what the kid was up to, so he had to tell him, "Go check it out after noon."

After receiving the order, Li Deming naturally didn't dare to be negligent, and went to Baohe Hall again at the end of noon. Although Ning Yunjin didn't look around this time, he was grinding his ink in a daze, and the draft was still blank .

Not to mention Li Deming this time, even Wen Zhen is anxious for him!Without Ning Yunjin's knowledge, he enjoyed a higher treatment than "the emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuch is in a hurry".
