8. Scholars and scumbags
Chaoyun Hall is the place where Xia Yi has always selected top-notch talents, and it is also a place where countless children of the poor family dream of setting foot in.
From a cloth cloth to the humerus minister who moves the government and the opposition, it only depends on whether he can step through the carved vermilion fence in front of the Chaoyun Palace.
Unlike ordinary scientific examinations, the imperial palace examinations were held only once every two years. However, if the Guoyong supervisor has exceptionally good schoolwork, he will also have the honor of taking the same test with the prince and princess.
The invigilation and propositions of the palace examination are generally under the sole responsibility of the famous ministers of the dynasty, and the imperial concubine sits next to the supervision.

The depicting beams and pillars were a little dazzling under the sun, but she didn't expect her to see him at a glance, and it was not good for her to be a teacher, Yuan Jiusi thought secretly.
Her gaze unnaturally moved away from Gong Hui Jin and landed in the empty hall, and her uneasiness became more and more intense.
Knowing that someone had a good hearing and hearing, Yuan Jiusi clenched the flower note tightly, and deliberately suppressed the voice so that only the two of them could hear it: "This princess remembers that the last time she went to the palace to take the exam, she would arrange a few tables in the Chaoyun Palace, and set up paper, ink, pen and inkstone for composition, why is there nothing this time?"
She still remembers the scene of the last palace examination, and she doesn't know what is going on in front of her, although her heart is strange, she still has to continue to comfort and enlighten her: "Don't worry, princess. Haven't the palace exams been like that all along, let's go in and see. ”
Hearing her words, Yuan Jiusi sneaked his left hand under the silver fox fur cloak and felt in his pocket. After making sure that the veil was firmly on his body, he nodded to the flower note, and the master and servant walked quickly towards the majestic and solemn hall.
Several little eunuchs waiting outside the palace gate saw her coming, bowed and saluted, and at the same time announced in a long voice: "Princess Shuyi has arrived!" For a while, the eyes of everyone in the Chaoyun Hall looked at the entrance of the palace. Watch her come in the morning light.
Facing everyone's sight, Yuan Jiusi didn't blink his eyelids and strode into the Zhu Rail. After a slight patrol, I saw Yuan Mingjiang and Yuan Xihe standing not far from Gong Hui Jin.
Because of the memory of the palace exam, she has been insomnia since last night, so that it is rare to get up early today, Yuan Jiusi originally wanted to come and sit in a position closer to Yuan Xihe in advance, but what happened today was beyond her expectations.
At present, among the four brothers and sisters, only Yuan Huainan has not yet come.
"Brother Prince, Sister Huang. Due to the presence of many people, it was inconvenient for her to be too intimate with Yuan Xihe, so she simply greeted her.
Yuan Mingjiang only nodded lightly at her.
Looking at the few penmen sitting on the side of the hall, Yuan Jiusi couldn't help frowning and pulling Yuan Xihe, and asked in a low voice, "Sister Huang, do you know what's going on?"
Touching her purse again, if under the nose of the penman, how could she look through her handkerchief for the secret book that must be passed in every exam.
Yuan Xihe's lips moved, and a look of embarrassment appeared on her face, she was worried about Yuan Jiusi. "This time is different from the previous essays in the temple examination, and today's questions are all dictated in turns. The content of the answers is recorded by the writer. ”
Listening to her words, Yuan Jiusi's heart was "groaning".
In such a cold winter, she suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, straightened her tongue, and smiled quite reluctantly: "Sister Huang, are you telling the truth?" In fact, she knew that Yuan Xihe would never lie to her.
Sure enough, Yuan Xihe was very disappointed by her expectations and nodded solemnly.
She was very reluctant to come, but at this time, the bad news came suddenly, and Yuan Jiusi felt exhausted and a little tired at first glance.
Fortunately, she still remembered that there were many courtiers and servants watching, and the smiles on their faces were still very decent, and they did not dare to show anything wrong.
Forced to calm down, Yuan Jiu Sile smiled honestly: "How can this be? Besides, if the palace examination is changed to the way of oral presentation, my father will not give an order in advance." Things came too steeply, pointing straight at her glass heart, Rao was repeatedly restrained, but she still couldn't suppress the grief in her words.
Yuan Jiusi felt that his youth was hit by the carriage and flashed his waist heavily. Now no one can help her, and she can't even rely on the handwritten handkerchief.
She wanted to burst into tears.
"Wechen has seen Princess Shuyi. Yuan Jiusi was hanging his eyes at a loss, and when he heard someone calling him, he turned around. A young man with gentle eyebrows happened to bump into her sight, warm as jade, and his temperament was as clear and light as a chrysanthemum.
Yes, she forgot that Lang Yuege must be there today, he has been riding and shooting poetry and books since he entered the Guoyong Prison.
As a proud protégé of Zhenzhizi, Zhenzhizi will definitely recommend him to Chaoyun Hall for reference.
A scumbag like Yuan Jiusi, on the surface, looks like he scorns both character and excellent scholars, but secretly he still has a little admiration. In addition, he lovingly helped her and helped her out.
Most importantly, he is still a very good-looking young man
・
Although he was in a bad mood, his sanity was still there, and Yuan Jiusi didn't want to be a little unbeautiful in front of him. A pair of amber eyes looked at him, and she called him out in a rare kindness, "Lang Yue Ge." ”
There was a warm smile on her lips, Lang Yuege knew what she was worried about, and took the initiative to explain to her, "In the past palace examinations, no matter how long the prince and princess have been in the national Yongjian prison, the questions in the examination are the same, for example, His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, has only been in the national Yongjian for half a year. Lord Shangqing thought that this trip was biased, so he specially asked His Majesty Xià to order the palace examination to be changed to the oral presentation method. The topic is determined according to the length of time the individual has been studying and the articles he has done on weekdays. The princess is quick to think, and the schoolwork under the Taifu cloth is not too nervous."
Yuan Jiusi didn't listen to the next few sentences, she only grasped one thing - it was a demon made by Gong Hui Jin's tossed moth.
There is such a hateful person in the world, in order to flatter and invite merit, he can come up with any boring idea.
After a few polite words with Lang Yuege, Yuan Jiusi estimated that Shichen's father and the harem palace concubine should be coming soon. She couldn't be the first to come out, so she hurriedly moved back to stand behind Ming Jiang.
With a sad expression, Yuan Jiusi was in a trance. Suddenly, a faint cold fragrance came to her face, and if she hadn't closed her feet and crashed into the arms of the person behind her.
If it is not as good as the cyanotic robe when they first met, Gong Hui Jin only wears an elegant moon-white court dress today, which is noble and cold. Xu is the color of the clothes is a little plain, compared to the back a little less evil, more elegant, like a fairy.
Staring straight at the initiator, Yuan Jiusi just wanted to poke him with the scum made of his broken glass heart.
Before she could act, suddenly, a slightly immature voice not far away broke into her ears, "Sister Huang, what are you doing staring at Gonghui Shangqing without turning your eyes?"
Yuan Huainan was very ignorant on his face, with an innocent and sweet smile. The sound was not loud or small, and the people around me could just hear it clearly.
His expression froze, and Yuan Jiusi raised his head again to meet Shang Gong Huijin's playful eyes.
After putting a kind of loving smile on his face, Yuan Jiusi reached out and patted Yuan Huainan's head and spoke to him very gently, "Because the imperial sister thinks that Lord Gonghui looks like a good person." ”
