Chapter 275: Your Majesty's Hobbies, How Can the Slave Answer It?
On the third day of the third month of March, a good day and an auspicious day, early in the morning, the front of the Gongyuan was crowded with candidates for the imperial examination.
Today, I will try to make the list, and those on the list have become tributes and have since entered the official career. According to the imperial examination tradition of the Great Xia Kingdom, as long as you can become a tribute scholar and then go through the motions in the palace examination, you can become a jinshi. Gongshi basically will not fall off the list, the palace test is only a ranking, even if you don't play well, you can also rank a fellow jinshi.
When the time came, I saw the official carrying out the yellow silk pavilion from the tribute courtyard, escorted by drum music, honor guards, and soldiers, and countless people surrounded the honor guard, and the atmosphere did not dare to breathe, quietly waiting for the moment when the gold list was posted.
In the Xianwang Mansion, Xiao Rui was drinking tea leisurely, and the money leopard on the side was restless, and his eyes that were squeezed into a line by meat were always aimed at the door, and his heart was apprehensive, which made him feel more nervous and excited than the first time he saved the lost girl.
Xiao Rui knocked on the table and asked, "You are excited, ask you about the results of the exam, you walked out of the Gongyuan and forgot everything, you have memorized the questions for so long, is it possible that you will be stunned on the spot?" ”
The money leopard cried and said with a sad face: "Your Highness, the moment the villain walked out of the tribute courtyard, he forgot all the content he wrote, and only remembered that the exam questions were really from the question book rewarded by His Highness, and the others couldn't remember anything." ”
Xiao Rui sighed, if this product fails the test, then it is really a talent, people close the book, you open the book, and you have been memorizing the answers since a month ago, and if you are a normal person, let alone on the list, Huiyuan can be successful.
"Your Highness, why don't you go to the Tribute Courtyard to have a look?" The golden leopard longed.
Xiao Rui glared at him and said, "For you, is it so important if you don't make the list?" ”
The money leopard was stunned for a moment, and suddenly reacted.
Yes, it's important if you don't get into the jinshi? The purpose of Zhongjinshi is to make the Jin family's business bigger and bigger, and now that he is following His Royal Highness King Xian, why should he go far and near? As long as you loyally support Your Highness, and when Your Highness becomes the emperor, hehe, you may be able to get a big official, which is more convenient than your own dog planing in your official career.
"Your Highness is taught." The leopard immediately regained his composure and drank tea leisurely.
Xiao Rui smiled knowingly, now the money leopard has a very good appetite for Xiao Rui, this guy may be a mess in knowledge, but his business acumen is only inferior to Shen Wansan, the two of them are perfectly matched, and they will definitely be able to move forward on the road of making money.
Speaking of two ends, each table has a branch.
At this time, there was a crowd of people in front of the Gongyuan, and as the gold list was posted little by little, the candidates did not dare to blink and began to search for their names.
"Me! I'm in! I'm in! A middle-aged examinee yelled and fainted with excitement.
"Damn, why don't you have my name? I'm obviously a tribute to the talent, am I mistaken? One of the lifters roared.
"Hey, I didn't hit again, it seems that I can only go home and inherit a million fortunes." A young man said sadly.
…….
In front of the Gongyuan Courtyard, life is varied.
Those on the list are excited and crazy, and those who fail are like mourning.
In the Xianwang Mansion, the subordinates hurried back.
The money leopard immediately stood up, and this person went to see the list, and he could see if he was in it or not.
"How? Did Jin Gongzi win? Xiao Rui asked.
The subordinate said respectfully: "Back to Your Highness, Jin Gongzi is on the list, ranking one hundred and thirty-eighth!" A total of 140 people were included in this year's examination, which is more than in previous years. ”
"Got it? Hit? The money leopard muttered to himself, if it weren't for the Xianwang Mansion, he would have jumped up and down, and began to burn silver tickets to worship his ancestors, and to worship his grandfather and grandfather...
Wait, grandfather and grandfather are not dead yet, then you can't burn money, then hurry up and send the good news home.
Calming down the excited emotions, the money leopard bowed deeply and said: "Thank you for your kindness, the villain has nothing to repay, and he will pour all his wealth to repay His Highness's kindness." ”
Xiao Rui is quite satisfied, he likes people who give money when they open their mouths and close their mouths, and they are generous, this is showing off their wealth.
"Who's the Huiyuan?" Xiao Rui asked.
The next man said: "It's Meng Zaikun's son of Meng Mansion!" ”
Xiao Rui was stunned for a moment, then nodded, he visited Old Master Meng a few years ago and met Meng Zaikun, this person gave Xiao Rui the feeling that he was a learned person, and he got the true biography of Old Master Meng, and it was not surprising that he would be in high school.
"Your Highness, this Meng Gongzi is Huiyuan, and he has already reached the first two yuan." The next person added.
Xiao Rui couldn't help but praise: "Two yuan and the first, tsk, really powerful, if the palace test is in the middle of the champion, it is the three yuan and the first, plus the support of the Meng Mansion of the Confucian family, it will definitely be a rising star in the future." By the way, is Meng Zaikun married? ”
The subordinate shook his head and said, "The villain doesn't know. ”
Xiao Rui nodded, let the villain retreat, and then said: "Whether or not to marry is meaningless to this king, and this king has no sister?" ”
The money leopard on the side wanted to raise his hand, he had a sister, but if he thought about it, forget it, don't mention it, after all, he is still going to dedicate his sister to His Highness, his sister is so beautiful, what a pity not to dedicate it to His Highness, in the future, when His Highness ascends the throne, he can still be a brother-in-law, now think about it, the muscles all over his body are trembling.
Quickly stopping the reverie in his heart, the golden leopard suddenly found a problem, and hurriedly asked: "Your Highness, what should you do tomorrow's palace test?" Although I won the Gongshi, the palace exam is only a ranking, and the villain is determined to be born with the Jinshi, but after all, I also have to take the exam, Your Highness, you know, my talent is not good when I learn. ”
"If you don't brag, you can die?" Xiao Rui glared at him, and then asked, "Are you afraid of being embarrassed?" ”
"The last thing a villain is afraid of being embarrassed!" The leopard immediately responded.
Xiao Rui said with a smile: "The palace examination only examines one question, and the examiner designated by His Majesty will mark the papers, and the ten test papers that have received the most recognition will be presented to His Majesty, and His Majesty will appoint the top three, so your test papers will be brushed down by the examiner." You should now find someone to make a poem in praise of Your Majesty, not flattering, but from the side to highlight the greatness of Your Majesty, and then at the end of the poem to express your emotions, difficult to control your feelings, your brain is blank, so that you have no thoughts at all, and you have no mind to write. You will inevitably be the last one in this way, but it will cover up the shortcomings of your lack of learning. In every imperial examination, there is a phenomenon of gongshi fainting excitedly, so there is no need to be too nervous. ”
After speaking, Xiao Rui paused, and then continued: "But... Next, you have to be careful about the fraud in the imperial examination. ”
"The villain must be small... What? Imperial examination... Fraud? The golden leopard was shocked, and his face turned white.
Xiao Rui was a little embarrassed, this time in order to deal with Zhou Mingwen, he also encircled the money leopard, so he said with a smile: "Don't worry too much, although there will be a thorough investigation at that time, but you have never been in contact with the imperial examination fraud case, even if someone will report you, without any evidence, it will not do anything to you, at most you will be imprisoned for a few days, and this king will get you out." ”
The money leopard breathed a sigh of relief, he was not stupid, and immediately understood the whole story.
How could His Royal Highness King Xian have a question book for the scientific examination? It's very scary to think about this matter, the money leopard didn't think much about it before, but now that I think about it, I feel that His Highness's methods are clever and terrifying! If it weren't for the sake of becoming a tribute and fulfilling his dream, His Royal Highness would never hand over the question book to himself, and now he will put it in himself, His Highness still has to help him get out, and he has to keep his reputation, His Royal Highness is really a parent to himself!
The more the money leopard thought about it, the more excited he became, and he quickly got up and bowed deeply, and said respectfully: "Your Highness's kindness to the villain, the villain can't repay it, and he is willing to dedicate all his family property to help His Highness's wish come true." ”
"Uh..." Xiao Rui blinked, he didn't seem to say anything, why was this fat man so excited.
Hey, that's weird!
……
will try to release the gold list, how many people are happy and how many people are sad.
King Jing's Mansion, Xiao Jing couldn't help but smile when he took the latest list of tributes, because he found that there were indeed a few familiar names on the list.
He is a dignified prince, how can he care about these five or six inconsequential names, but during this time, he secretly tracked down the fraud case in the imperial examination, and found that these five or six people were involved, and focused on investigating these people, and found that they were all uneducated and unskilled children, how could they be high school tributes?
Since I can't go to high school, but now I'm in high school, it must be because of fraud!
"Haha, God helps the king, God helps the king!" Xiao Jing laughed heartily, his eyebrows were actually happy, he thought it was useless as a prisoner, but now it seems that it is a good thing and he is not afraid of being late, justice is just diarrhea, and it is late after being convenient halfway.
"King Chu, King Chu, you thought this was a good opportunity for you to earn fame, but you didn't expect it to be the beginning of losing an arm. The two uncles are finished, hehe, unhappy, not surprised. Xiao Jing was extremely excited, and went to find the eldest prince Xiao Lie in person, ready to make good use of this opportunity, which will definitely make Xiao Yiheng, the king of Chu, feel the pain of his skin.
The Zhou Mansion at this time.
Many of the tributes on the list came to the Zhou Mansion to meet the chief examiner of the imperial examination, Zhou Mingwen was very lively, Zhou Mingwen had a smile on his face, but unfortunately he was dazzled by the praise, and he did not know the coming of the crisis.
At the same time, the list of candidates for the examination was also submitted to the palace, and His Majesty was invited to take a look.
Xia Huang glanced at it, only focused on the top few in the exam, and put down the list. However, Hai Dafu, as the palm print of the East Factory, spies on all the news in the capital, how can he not have heard of it.
"Your Majesty, the slave has something to do." Hai Dafu said.
Emperor Xia was reviewing the recital, and suddenly heard Hai Dafu's words, he was slightly stunned, and then understood that what Hai Dafu wanted to say was related to the examination.
"What news did you find out about the East Factory?" Emperor Xia asked.
Hai Dafu said respectfully: "Your Majesty, please allow the slave to be brave and point out a few names on the list." ”
Emperor Xia handed over the list to Hai Dafu.
Hai Dafu turned around and took the red pen handed by the eunuch Zhang Gonggong of Bingbi, and circled several names on the list, one of which was named just above the money leopard, but the money leopard was not circled.
Then presented the list to His Majesty, Hai Dafu continued: "Back to Your Majesty, Wei Zhongxian, the first division of Dongchang, investigated that these people are shallow in knowledge and are not enough to be on the list. And there seem to be rumors in the capital about fraud in the imperial examination. ”
Emperor Xia glanced at the six people in the circle and asked, "Is it just these six people?" What are their origins? ”
Wei Zhongxian told the slaves and maids that there were only these six people who had problems, they were all from the capital, and their fathers were on duty in the six ministries, although their positions were not high, but they all held important positions in the yamen. Other than that... His Royal Highness King Jing seemed to be aware of it. Hai Dafu said.
Emperor Xia raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "So, there will be a good show to watch?" ”
Hai Dafu was silent.
Your Majesty's hobby, how can he, as a slave, answer?
