A few days later, the test was finally over, and as soon as the dragon gate was opened, these lifters came out one after another.

These people can now be said to be in different ways, some people consciously answer quite well, so Gu Pan is proud, some people are full of frustration, some people are even gray and are pulled out, and even one or two began to cry as soon as they came out of the dragon gate.

Jia Ke stood outside the Dragon Gate and looked at this scene with great emotion, in ancient times, this imperial examination was really a single-plank bridge.

Compared with the modern college entrance examination and the ancient imperial examination, it is really 108,000 miles away, but in ancient times, but no one who can stand out in the imperial examination is stupid, these people can be called scholars in terms of reading no matter what.

You can think about it, there are only 200 in three years, and if you want to calculate it, each of these people can be regarded as the top three in the college entrance examination in various provinces.

Jia Ke was also fine today, so he took Li Deshan and a few pro-soldiers to stand at the door of the Gongyuan to watch the excitement.

When Jia Ke was sighing, someone next to him spoke.

"This year's meeting is a blessing."

And the other person also chimed in: "Who says it isn't? I heard that one of the sons of Master Zhang Chaoxin originally wanted to participate in the imperial examination this year, but he was suppressed by Lord Zhang. is afraid that others will say that he bends the law for personal gain. ”

"A few days ago, Zhang Chaoxin, Lord Zhang and Master Li Wenbin, both houses were surrounded by these gift-givers, but the two adults didn't see each other, which was impossible in previous years."

"If you want me to say that the current ruling prime minister, Lord Jia, has a way, in the original time, there were fraud in the imperial examination every time, how can it be as peaceful as this year."

As a result, as soon as this person spoke, he immediately shifted the topic to Jia Ke.

Jia Ke also stood quietly and listened to everyone's discussions, most of them still said that he was not bad in power, and he also considered the people.

But there are a few radical ones who don't think so, and only say that Jia Ke is Wang Mang alive, and sooner or later it will not end well.

Ben Bray, who was next to Jia Ke, was angry when he heard this, and he was about to catch someone and beat him when he went up.

Fortunately, Jia Ke's eyes were quick, and he grabbed his arm and pulled the reckless man back.

"You don't have to be familiar with them, there is no perfect person in the world, they say just let these people talk about it."

After Jia Ke said these words, he led everyone out of the park and came to a famous restaurant nearby, Zhuangyuan Building.

This champion building is a gathering place for the lifters, and Jia Ke also wants to hear what these lifters are talking about, after all, the news he got from the spies was obtained as soon as he got it.

As soon as Jia Ke came to the door of the Champion Building, a junior second came over to greet him.

"Uncle, are you sharp, or do you live in a hotel?"

Ben Bray's anger just now had not subsided, and he immediately picked up the conversation and said loudly: "What are you talking about? Prepare a fine private room for our master, and our master will taste your food and wine. ”

The little two let Jia Ke and them in, and said in embarrassment: "Uncle is really sorry that our hotel room is full today, can you deal with it in the hall?" ”

Ben Bray was about to get angry, but Jaco next to him spoke.

"Then prepare a table for us by the window."

After listening to Xiao Er, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, Ben Bray was very fierce and vicious, and he was angry with him just now, but he scared Xiao Er a lot, and he was afraid that this reckless man would give him a few blows.

The group came to the second floor of the champion building, and Xiao Er arranged a table for them by the window.

Jia Ke sat in the center, and Lei and a few other guards stood next to him to protect Jia Ke's safety.

After Jia Ke sat down, he said to Xiao Er: "Bring me a few of your good dishes, and then serve a pot of your famous champion red." ”

Ben Bray, who was standing next to Jia Ke, saw that after Jia Ke finished ordering, he immediately took out a certain amount of silver from his arms and threw it into the hands of the little two.

"Let your cooks do it faster, we can't afford to wait."

When this little two got the reward, he naturally happily agreed.

I don't know if it's because Zhuangyuanlou cooks quickly, or if the ingot of silver plays a role, it's not big, and after a while, there are seven or eight dishes on the table, as well as two pots of good wine.

Jia Ke picked up the chopsticks and tasted them, and couldn't help nodding, their cooks here are even stronger than those in Rongguo Mansion, even if they are no different from the imperial chefs in the palace.

Jia Ke sat in the champion building, and about half an hour later, there were already a lot of people in the champion building.

After these people came, they each sat down, let Xiao Er serve wine and food, and then began to talk.

One of the young people, originally gave a good answer, and was talking there, "Lu Mou answered well today, I want to come to this subject is stable, and when I meet the emperor during the palace examination, the first thing is to impeach Jia Ke." ”

There was a good-looking jade-faced scholar next to him, and he said, "Brother Lu, why are you already drunk without wine?" Are we in charge of the affairs of those adults in the imperial court? In my opinion, if we are in this section, it is true that we will honestly serve as a county magistrate. ”

"Dong Li, you are good at everything, but you are too sophisticated, now is the time for the young people of my generation to emerge, if I impeach Jia Ke in the Golden Palace in a few days, I will also let the people of the world know the integrity of my generation of scholars."

The scholar known as Dong Li felt that this person surnamed Lu was already crazy if he wanted to be famous, and he didn't look at what kind of place this was.

In order not to be affected by this person, Dong Li hurriedly said, "I don't agree with you, since Lord Jia came to power, he has done a lot of practical things to the people of the court. ”

After hearing Dong Li's words, the young man surnamed Lu immediately became a little annoyed, and was about to stand up and argue with him, but fortunately, a few people who followed him dissuaded him, and the two of them temporarily suppressed their anger.

At the other table, an older man looked at each other and shook his head when he heard the young people at the table next to him.

They felt in their hearts that these young people really didn't know the height of the sky, and they didn't look at the current situation, and they impeached Jia Ke in the main hall in the hall, not only did their years of hard work go in vain, but they were afraid that their lives would not be guaranteed, and they would eventually affect the family.

These old people have already smoothed out the edges and corners, and they don't care which person is sitting on the Jinluan Treasure Hall now, as long as they can make them soar and slaughter for officials, then there is a dog sitting on it, and they will also worship.

Jia Ke sat aside, listening to two completely different voices of discussion, and felt that the decision he made this time was quite good, if these young people were allowed to enter the court now, he was afraid that he was really in a dilemma, it was better to wait for himself to ascend the throne and sit in the palace, and then it would not be too late for them to enter the palace.

After Jia Ke ate and drank enough and got the news he wanted, he didn't have the heart to continue shopping, so he ordered someone to settle the account, went down to the champion building, turned around and went back to the prime minister's yamen to handle official business.

On the 7th day after the end of the examination, Zhang Chaoxin, the chief examiner of the examination, and Li Wenbin, the deputy examiner, came to the prime minister's yamen to report to Jia Ke with the list of candidates for the examination and the papers of these people.

Jia Ke took the list and took a look at it first, and the people selected this time were quite suitable, and there were no young people.

Most of them are 25 years old and above, and there are even a few people in their fifties and sixties.

It's just that one of them makes Jia Ke very conspicuous after seeing it, that is, a 17-year-old lifter - Tang Zhong.

"What's the matter with this young man? It's not easy to be able to enter high school at a young age. ”

Jia Ke said so on the surface, but his tone was a little bad, because he didn't want to choose these young geniuses at all, did these two examiners ignore their own meaning?

Zhang Chaoxin and Li Wenbin glanced at each other, and their faces showed helplessness, they knew that there would be such a show when they were reading the papers.

It turned out that when the two of them were reviewing the exam papers, they didn't know the names and ages of these people, but they just selected those who were old and serious in the papers, and the writing was spicy, and finally all the rankings were set, so they began to remove the seals above, and then they saw the age and name.

After unpacking the papers, they found that Tang Zhong was actually ranked fifth, but this person's age was too young, and they were afraid that it would be difficult to pass the test at Jia Ke Station.

Originally, Zhang Chaoxin thought about demoting this person and pressing him in this subject, and it was not too late to wait until Jia Ke's world was decided, and then he was selected.

How do you know that this time Li Wenbin is very opposed, he and Zhang Chaoxin argue with reason, Zhang Chaoxin is actually very hesitant, after all, this person is based on his ability, and his paper is also very old and spicy, and there is no radical momentum of any young people, otherwise they would not have elected Tang Zhong as the fifth when they read the papers.

In the end, the two decided to go to Jia Ke like this, and if Jia Ke had an opinion, it would not be too late to belittle him.

Now sure enough, I saw Jia Ke asking about this person, so Zhang Chaoxin came out and said: "Lord Qiqi, this Tang Zhong is indeed a little talented, the article is extremely spicy, and the arguments are clear and clear, we really can't ignore it." ”

Li Wenbin also stood aside and gave Zhang Chaoxin a few words, after all, this person was saved by him, and Zhang Chaoxin could not be allowed to go through it alone.

Jia Ke heard the two of them reply, and suppressed his anger.

"Show me this man's papers."

When Li Wenbin heard this, he immediately took out Tang Zhong's scroll from the scroll he was holding, and then held it in front of Jia Ke with both hands.

Jia Ke took the roll and looked at it carefully.

To say that Jia Ke has also studied Bagu Wen for a few years, but he is not proficient in these, and now he can only barely see the good and bad.

Jia Ke took the scroll and read it carefully, trying to find out what flaws in it.

As a result, Jia Ke was dumbfounded, he couldn't change a word in this volume.

This is also that Jia Ke is really not good at Bagu, he really has no say in the things on these Bagu articles, and it is not his ability to change these papers.

Jia Ke was a little embarrassed after reading it for a long time, "This article is not bad, this person is still a little young, so he is afraid of him, and he is open-mouthed, which is not conducive to his future career." ”

Li Wenbin hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Lord Qiqi, it doesn't matter whether you are old or not you are radical, and there are things in all dynasties and generations. ”

Jia Ke watched Li Wenbin intercede with this Tang Zhong, and he was a little hesitant, after all, Li Wenbin was his teacher, and it was not good to refute his face like this.

"In that case, let's do it, I'll take a look for myself when I go to the palace test, if he is okay, let him be admitted to the Jinshi, otherwise he will be beaten to the top three."

Jia Ke continued to look at the ranking after dealing with this person, and then nodded, the others have no problems, they are not too young, and they can be regarded as smoothed out by society.
