Qiao Ge's face was as usual, and Lu Hou Ye was also a loyal and courageous person, so he was naturally very satisfied with this test question. However, the prime minister only reluctantly smiled, the emperor is giving him a warning, and it is also a warning to the civil and military officials present. This is clearly hinting at the forces under him, so that An An, who is the leader, will have a little share.

"Your Majesty's topic is good, wonderful!" Lu Houye smiled from ear to ear, the emperor was mostly indulgent to the prime minister in political affairs, and he almost thought that the emperor valued the prime minister very much. Now that the emperor has slapped the prime minister in public, it seems that he is ready to endure it anymore. The prime minister's power is getting bigger and bigger, and he doesn't know to what extent, but as a courtier, he definitely follows.

There must be a degree in everything. Qiao Ge Lao understood that the prime minister's good days were coming to an end, and it was time for the emperor to endure him for so many years.

Guan Gonggong led a few eunuchs and palace maids to step forward, and the four little eunuchs carried a sandalwood carved table, and the palace maids were holding pen, ink, paper and inkstone in their hands. Let the eunuchs put the table in front of Long Jintian, the pen, ink, paper and inkstone were also arranged, and the palace maids rolled up their sleeves and concentrated on grinding.

"Please ask the emperor to write the inscription himself." Guan Gonggong's voice is sharp and slender, since ancient times, it is a palace test, and the emperor himself made the question, and this word is naturally inscribed by the emperor himself.

Long Jintian picked up the thick pen that was trapped by the golden wire, his wrist flew around, and he had already written in just a moment. Guan Gonggong ordered someone to turn over the paper and present it in front of everyone. The pen is slightly lighter, and the rest of the explanation is vigorous and powerful, hiding the edge, and it is a book. The ink did not disperse, shining in the midday sun, emitting sparkling waves, like a black python jumping on the paper.

was present, and only heard two knocks, and it turned out that this Guan father-in-law was beating the gong. The sound of the gong was loud and clear, with a solemn aura emerging like a solemn aura, lifting the spirit of all candidates.

"Let's go!"

In the center above the hall test, there is also a three-legged bronze tripod, which is three zhang high. Above that, there is a thick round ambergris incense, and the green smoke is faint. It also burns slowly with the passage of time, hinting at the time that the candidates have left. After a stick of incense, it is the end of the temple test.

As soon as the candidates present heard Guan Gonggong's announcement to start, they immediately put pen to paper. It's just that, looking at the above topic, everyone has different expressions. Or they droop their eyes and think deeply, or they don't move. Some are bamboos in their chests, calm and waveless.

Gu Sangongzi was light and light, his slender hand held the pen, and began to write on the white paper. The strength is tactful, the demeanor is leisurely, and there is no difficulty at all.

On the other hand, Liu Ruofeng held the pen and did not move a word. However, in half an hour, there were dozens more candidates present who took up the pen and started writing, but he was still like this. Liu Ruofeng maintained the posture of lifting the pen, but what he thought about was a different scenery. Facing the rice paper in front of him, he looked entangled, obviously suffering from no solution.

Liu Mei looked at Liu Ruofeng and couldn't help but be a little worried. Looking at Long Jintian, who was half-leaning and half-lying on the dragon chair, his eyes were as clear as water, and it was obvious that the emperor's test question was a test at all. Whether it's an examiner, a candidate, or even a marquis's house. In other words, Long Jintian is also giving everyone present a chance to choose, and the master can be worry-free. Again, this is a warning. As for Gu Sangongzi and Liu Ruofeng, there is no need to think about these at all. With Liu Ruofeng's talent, he can completely answer the loyalty of the monarch and the minister, the loyalty of the gentleman, and the loyalty of the people. He did not put pen to paper in this way, obviously because he was bound by himself.

"Liugonshi seems to be in trouble." Su Zhengkang also saw this, at the critical moment, this Liu Ruofeng can't make a mistake. Since you have waited for this day with Miss Liu, you must not spoil everything on impulse. You must know how shrewd Miss Liu's plan is, not only to let Liu Ruofeng participate in the palace examination, but also to avenge herself, and to rectify the prime minister, this kind of exquisite method that kills three birds with one stone is not something that ordinary people can come up with.

"It's okay......" Liu Mei smiled reluctantly, what she was worried about was not that Liu Ruofeng didn't have ink in her stomach, she was just worried that this guy would not be able to bear it. But Liu Ruofeng didn't move for a long time, so he chose to be patient. His problem is not in the answer, but in the knot with him. She understood that the hatred in his heart, especially at the last moment, was indeed difficult to suppress. Looking at Long Jintian on the stage, today, only success, not defeat!

Maybe it was because the eyes of Liu Mei were too clear and confident, too focused, and it just so happened that Long Jintian was an extremely sensitive person, so he quickly felt this gaze, and then looked over. But he was a step too late, and the moment he raised his head, he couldn't see that Liu Mei's makeup had lowered his head quickly. A grim gaze swept over everyone present, but there was no trace.

"Brother Huang, what's wrong with you?" Long Jinsleeve stayed in front of Long Jintian, and looked at him as if he was looking for someone, so he asked out loud immediately.

"Nothing." Long Jintian lowered his eyes and chuckled, it seemed that he was really too sensitive, so that even illusions were born. Yu Guang glanced at the candidates present, and then looked at Liu Ruofeng, who was still unfinished. It's strange, how can a person who can write a benevolent word for governing the country, how can a person who breaks the routine have no idea how to start with a simple word of loyalty? Would he like to remind the candidates present that there is not much time left? But after thinking about it, forget it, there is no need to look for more trouble, he still chooses to continue to wait.

No, Liu Mei makeup really can't stand it, seeing that most of the ambergris in the bronze tripod has been burned, but Liu Ruofeng hasn't started to write yet. At this moment, he must be reminded. But Gu Sangongzi is a candidate for this year, and if he rashly reminds him, it will inevitably make people suspected of cheating. Glancing at the scholar's clothes on his body, Liu Mei's flexible and small body drilled in front of the rest of the scholars.

"Alas-" Su Zhengkang wanted to stop Miss Liu, but it was obviously too late. I couldn't help but feel secretly unhappy in my heart, this Miss Liu didn't want to think about him, Su Zhengkang was actually very useful. wanted to remind Liu Ruofeng that he could actually use something small to wake up Liu Ruofeng, but since then, he must have become an assassin in the palace test.

Zhao Dagongzi's eyes were sharp, and when he saw that Liu Mei's makeup had run to the front, he pulled him to his side. This little woman, why don't you know how to write the two words Anfen.

"Why are you restless and stay behind, but run to the front!" The tone was full of rebuke, but there was an implicit concern.

Steward Chen saw that Liu Mei's makeup suddenly ran forward, and he also moved his body to run over at the moment. But at this time, there was a sudden push in the back, squeezing Steward Chen between the scholars, and he couldn't get out of his body at all, so he could only watch anxiously. This Miss Yijing is really bold and reckless, Lord Zhao asked her to stay among the scholars without being noticeable, and she didn't appreciate it at all. was so anxious that he pulled the sleeves of his willow eyebrows, if the prime minister knew that Miss Yijing had run out, it would be strange that he, who was in charge, would not be beaten.

Su Zhengkang in the back smiled, this old thing, if you want to do a good thing for Miss Liu, it's not that simple. Steward Chen was squeezed out of the scholar and lacked skills, but Su Zhengkang swaggered and ran to the body of Liu Mei.

Liu Meixiang glanced at Zhao Dagongzi and knew that this person was actually warm-hearted. Otherwise, I wouldn't be afraid that she would be found out and let her stand in the back. But looking at Liu Ruofeng's current situation, she was really a little anxious. Fools know that she is a good plan to kill three birds with one stone. Since now is not the time to avenge grievances, then simply wait for the end of the palace test, but if you hand in the blank paper on the spot, isn't it disrespectful to Long Jintian?

"Didn't you say it's okay?" Su Zhengkang asked rhetorically, but he was smiling like a flower, it seemed that Miss Liu was panicked. Interesting, really interesting.

Liu Meixiang glared at Su Zhengkang, and didn't look at what time it was, and was still in the mood to watch her jokes here. But she had to admit that she was really close to messing with herself just now. Fortunately, Zhao Dagongzi stopped him in time, otherwise he would have to put himself in. Finally, I was relieved when I watched Liu Ruofeng finally lift the pen, fortunately, this kid is still a little savvy.

At this moment, Gu Sangongzi had already put down his pen. The light in his eyes touched the willow eyebrows in the crowd, and there was a little more tenderness in his eyes.

"Time is over!" When Gonggong Guan saw that the ambergris had been burned, he waved his hand and asked the surrounding eunuchs and palace maids to take away all the rice paper in front of the candidates' desks. The palace test is not long, just one hour, and according to the rules of the dynasty, it is also reviewed by the emperor and personally taps the top three.

Liu Ruofeng's eyes flickered with the rice paper, and then he looked at it and saw the willow eyebrows between the scholars. Liu Mei saw that the palace test had ended, but she was a little puzzled, why did Liu Ruofeng not move?

Guan Gonggong divided all the rice paper into more than ten parts and put them in front of the examiners, of course, Qiao Ge, as the chief examiner of this imperial examination, naturally also has a share.

Long Jintian summoned Long Jin's sleeves and sideburns to grind for a few words, and Long Jinsleeves walked over. "Father-in-law Guan, bring over the test papers of Liu Ruofeng and Gu Sangongzi."

"Yes." When Guan Gonggong heard this, he couldn't help but guess in his heart, it seems that the emperor is really interested in Gu Liufei and Liu Ruofeng. Then he ran to the examiner and looked at the test papers in front of them, and then pulled out two.

Long Jintian stretched out his hand and took the two test papers, the first one was written by Gu Sangongzi, which was answered from the three aspects of loyalty to the monarch and minister, the loyalty of the gentleman, and the loyalty of the people. Long Jintian smiled with satisfaction, worthy of being Qiao Ge's protégé, he really gave this answer clearly and incisively.

However, when he saw Liu Ruofeng's test paper, the smile on the corner of his mouth immediately froze. Hmph, is it finally action? Where is the answer to the test question written above, it is clearly a pleading.
