On April 12, the temple examination. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Early in the morning, the former second-class tribute students came to the door of the Guozijian.

There were two moments before the Mao Dynasty, and the door of the Guozijian slowly opened, and a purple-robed official walked out and glanced at it, "Former second-class tribute students, Lord Yang He Yang is already waiting for you inside." ”

Seeing that Gongsheng's attention in front of the door turned to him, he continued, "Is there a Yuan Tang Shiming in this section?"

"The student has arrived," Tang Shiming stood up when he heard this.

The purple-robed official nodded, and then said, "Can you bring an official certificate?"

"Yes" Tang Shiming took out the official certificate and handed it over.

The purple-robed official took the official certificate, checked it, and after confirming that it was not an impostor, he let Tang Shiming enter the Guozijian.

Tang Shiming retrieved the official certificate, then walked into the Guozijian, and then followed a soldier to the place where the honor guard was waiting to enter the palace.

"Huiyuan Tang Shiming has arrived!" When Tang Shiming was about to arrive at the honor guard, the soldiers first reported Tang Shiming's name.

"Huiyuan Tang Shiming is here!" shouted the soldier at the honor guard.

After a few steps, Tang Shiming finally came to the front of the honor guard, and an official, who looked extraordinary, was sitting on the high platform in front of the honor guard.

He was wearing a red python robe that only a first-class official was qualified to wear, with a full forehead, a gray beard, and a majesty on his face, which was difficult for a long-term official to accumulate.

Although Tang Shiming had never seen this official before, there was no one present today who could match the momentum of the person in front of him, except for Lord Yang He Yang, a scholar of the Ministry of Rites and a member of the first rank of a scholar.

Yang He on the high platform saw Tang Shiming, a hearty smile on the corner of his mouth, and he actually stood up, "Tang Huiyuan, the old man is here to wish you two yuan in a row!"

Yang He's words seemed to be flattering, but they did not mean to kill.

"Lord Yang, the student has seen Lord Yang. The students were lucky to get the title of Huiyuan, and did not dare to be arrogant, Lord Yang, as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, presided over this year's imperial examination, and the students for the other tribute students of the current department, as well as the people of the world, thank Lord Yang for his virtue. Tang Shiming bowed his hand and said respectfully.

"Not bad!" Yang He nodded with satisfaction.

It was a temptation just now, but it didn't mean to support the juniors.

Tang Shiming was a senior high school member in the imperial examination, but he was not proud, this young man has a lot to do in the future.

Tang Shiming bowed his hand to show respect, and then stood aside when the other Gongsheng also walked in.

"Wang Wenyue, the second place in the first class, has arrived!"

"The third place in the first class, Su Yuan, has arrived!"

……

In the end, a total of fifty tribute students from the first two classes all arrived, and the two teams of soldiers directly opened the way for them, Yang He walked in front in a sedan chair, and this mighty team walked towards the palace.

About three o'clock in the morning, they came to the outside of the palace gate.

At this moment, the courtiers have all gone to the palace, and the emperor has been waiting for a while.

The herald sent the news that the former second-class tribute student had arrived at the palace gate into the Taihe Palace, and Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the eunuch to announce it.

"Xuan-the former Erjia Gongsheng entered the court. ”

"Xuan-the former Erjia Gongsheng entered the court. ”

……

The voices came from far and near, and finally, they reached outside the palace gate.

Yang He led the students of Jinke Gongsheng and walked in the direction of the Taihe Palace.

The Gongsheng walked to the outside of the Taihe Palace, and then walked in with Yang He.

The voice of the "kneeling" eunuch was very sharp, but there was an indescribable power in it.

"Hulala" The Gongsheng knelt neatly, and Tang Shiming also knelt down.

"Long live the mountain," the eunuch continued.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live," the tributes shouted, but their voices were not so neat, but many ministers did not mean to laugh.

"Ladies and gentlemen, flat body. Zhu Yuanzhang is already very old, and the hair under his bun is already gray, and he is looking at these tributes in the Taihe Hall with scrutinizing eyes at this moment.

A large part of these people will become the pillars of the court in the future, especially the top three in the examination, even if they are not the champions, they are still not to be underestimated.

Now Zhu Yuanzhang has to personally come up with the question, and then select the champion from among these tribute students.

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, and the eunuch next to him took out a roll of yellow cloth, and he unfolded the yellow cloth with a solemn expression, "Today's palace exam questions, on, 'self-cultivation, governing the country, and leveling the world'!"

All the Gongsheng in the audience couldn't help but gasp, it turned out to be such a big topic, they had no experience before, such a question is no longer a simple memory, let alone an understanding of the words of ancient sages, but a test of whether they have real ability to govern the country. This is no longer a simple exam, it is obvious that this palace exam is also a test for them by Zhu Yuanzhang.

In the previous imperial examinations, Mencius could rely on, but now it is too difficult for them to imagine it out of thin air.

The temple examination is not like the examination, there are three full days to think slowly, and the time of the entire temple examination is only two hours.

The eunuchs have already begun to set up the examination room, and the emperor and the ministers act as invigilators, and it seems that there is no special invigilator, but no one dares to cheat on the palace examination.

This is also the reason why Lu Botao's generation is not in the top two, he is only shallow in learning, if he comes to participate in the palace examination again, he will inevitably be exposed, and even all the conspirators will be implicated, and finally completely overturned.

At this moment, the palace test began, fifty tribute students, only Tang Shiming was not afraid, he was still full of confidence at the moment, and what he wrote down was more than just a book of Mencius!

Stroke like a god, Tang Shiming's pen walk dragon snake, used to practice calligraphy, now the pen has a god, the word is like a tassel, the pen is like a dragon and snake, like the first saint and the world, unstoppable!

An hour passed, and most of the tribute students were still struggling to write, but Tang Shiming suddenly stood up.

At this moment, the eyes of Zhu Yuanzhang and all the officials in the court couldn't help but fall on him.

"Student Tang Shiming, I have completed the answer sheet!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was shocked.

The eunuch secretly looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's expression, and there was no anger, but a look of curiosity.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew Tang Shiming's father Tang Guochang, in his memory, when he fought the world, Tang Guochang was his chief quartermaster, and whenever the war was in urgent need of grain and grass, Tang Guochang could always be in the middle of the dispatch, and he was a rare general.

Later, Tang Guochang's wife gave birth to Tang Shiming, and he personally helped give birth to the name.

After the establishment of the Ming Dynasty and the establishment of the world, he was not at ease with these powerful generals, so he could take back the power, and Tang Guochang also resigned at that time and returned to his hometown with his young son.

Before Zhu Yuanzhang checked the background resume of the second-class person this time, he saw Tang Shiming's information, and only then did he know that it was Tang Guochang's son, Zhu Yuanzhang was very pleased with Tang Guochang at that time, with such a son, the old Tang's life can be regarded as no regrets.

"Shiming, yes, take it. Zhu Yuanzhang affectionately called Tang Shiming Shiming, which shows the meaning of closeness.

Some officials who couldn't understand the emperor's attitude before have also made up their minds in their hearts at this moment, this Tang Shiming, the future is limitless.

"Yes" The eunuch stepped forward, took the scroll that Tang Shiming was holding in both hands, and then walked in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang picked up Tang Shiming's scroll and looked at it.

At first, Zhu Yuanzhang thought that Tang Shiming had some small talents at most, and no matter how powerful he was, he would definitely not be able to compare with Liu Bowen or other scholars.

But after reading four or five sentences, Zhu Yuanzhang realized that he might be wrong.

He almost couldn't wait to read it, and when he got to the end, he was not only greatly moved, but even read it out involuntarily.

"Benefiting the country and having no home......" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, I don't know when, tears have flowed, Daming has this person, it is really a blessing from God.

"Shiming, I'm ashamed of your father!" Zhu Yuanzhang said with tears in his eyes.
