Everyone was in a hurry, especially the villagers in Xixi. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info not that they think Wang Gen's level is not enough, but Wang Gen's appearance is not very good, this year some occasions are also to look at the face, the champion represents the façade of this session, the past dynasties did not choose an ugly-looking person as the champion, Wang Gen is the first one.

However, after everyone reacted, they immediately began to congratulate Wang Gen. In any case, Wang Gen's literary talent is recognized by everyone, although the champion is very surprising to everyone, but no one thinks that he does not deserve this champion.

On the contrary, Wang Gen himself was a little stunned, and he didn't react for a while. He also knew that he was not good-looking, so although he knew that he was brilliant, he never thought about becoming a jinshi.

The reason why Yun Xi named Wang Gen as the champion is because he thinks about it and thinks that the person he admires the most is not suitable for the title of champion, and the second is that in history, Wang Gen not only died for Yun Gen's loyalty, but also gave Hu Guang the champion who came to his hand because he was not good-looking. Therefore, despite the minister's objections, Yun gave him a champion. However, after that, Yun Xi got a good reputation, and he didn't give Wang Gen a champion in vain.

Yang Shiqi continued: "The second place in the first class, Hu Guang, is a native of Xijian. ”

There is still no objection to this candidate. Hu Guang was Huiyuan before, and it is also the right thing to be admitted to the list.

Hu Guang himself was slightly disappointed: he wanted to get the top prize, but he didn't expect to be obtained by his fellow villagers. 'Fortunately, it's a good example, it's not bad. Hu Guang comforted himself like this.

"The third place in the first class, Yang Pu, the first person in Huguang Shi."

The people around Yang Pu immediately congratulated him, and the others also breathed a sigh of relief: finally the top three were not taken by the Xixi people.

Generally speaking, although some people are jealous of the newly baked Sanding Jia, they all hide their jealousy in their hearts, and the atmosphere is still very good.

But there was one person who was very out of shape: "How is it possible? Am I also misinterpreting the questions in the policy essay test? Yang Zirong said very excitedly.

Yang Zirong had deep doubts about himself: Could it be that my previous interpretation of His Majesty's decree was wrong? Don't......

Fortunately, Yang Shiqi's voice sounded at the right time: "Second place in the second grade, Yang Zirong, Fujian Jian'an." ”

"Congratulations, Brother Mian Ren!" The people who stood with Yang Zirong immediately began to congratulate him. The second place in the second class and the fifth place in this subject are also very remarkable.

Yang Zirong himself also put his mind at ease: "It seems that this palace test did not guess His Majesty's mind wrongly. ’

'But,' Yang Zirong was puzzled again: "Could it be that there will be four people who will guess that His Majesty's mind is still above mine?" ’

His gaze swept to Hu Guang, Wang Gen, Yang Pu and Wu Pu, who ranked first in the second grade, "Are the four of them so powerful?" ’

……

……

The next day, the new branch jinshi of the second year of the palace examination of Jianye went to Guozijian to receive the jinshi scarf uniform. On the second day, the famous Golden Palace Ceremony was held: the new Jinshi wore Jinshi scarf uniforms and entered the palace in a neat procession to meet the Son of Heaven in Fengtian Palace.

It was the first time they had seen the emperor up close. Although Yun Xi personally presided over the palace examination when the temple test was held before, but at that time, he was only seen outside the hall, and only the top few could see Yun Xi's appearance, so this was the first time that most people 'admired Tianyan'.

Yun Xi has dealt with the government over the years, and he has also gained the momentum of the superiors, and he has been practicing martial arts all year round and is strong, many people have been photographed by Yun Xi: This is the son of heaven of the Ming Dynasty!

After the roll call, the deacon held the gold list in the sound of drums, and the new science and technology jinshi followed, along the royal street out of the left gate of Chang'an, and officially hung up the gold list for the people to watch. Later, Shuntianfu sent the champion to ride a horse with an umbrella cover, which is the rumored street boasting of the people.

On the eighth day of the third month of the next day, the Son of Heaven gave a banquet in the Ministry of Rites, which was called the Grace Banquet or the Qionglin Banquet. According to the etiquette, His Majesty personally came to the Qionglin banquet, encouraged the new scholars to say a few words, and drank three glasses of wine with them.

Next, according to the etiquette, the emperor should have withdrawn, but Yun Xi suddenly said: "Where are the top five in the palace test today?" ”

Dong Lun, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites who was accompanying him, was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Your Majesty wants to summon these five people?" ”

"The top five in this palace exam are all the elites of the Ming Dynasty, but I haven't known them yet, so I want to talk to them face to face." Yun Xi said.

Dong Lun immediately instructed the waiters to find the top five.

At this time, the jinshi were drinking and chatting about something. Jin Shan, who has passed the second class and seventh in the palace examination here, said: "Last night, I talked to the seniors in the same county, and the seniors said that all the test papers of the palace examination this time were reviewed by His Majesty alone, and he did not fake any officials. ”

"Huh? According to the usual practice, don't all the officials of the Chinese Calligraphy Department or the Hanlin Academy, the Ministry of Rites, and the Honglu Temple read the papers, and select the ten best papers to be evaluated by His Majesty, and if His Majesty is still not satisfied, the champion is selected among the rest of the volumes? ”

"It seems that Your Majesty attaches great importance to this palace examination, and personally counts and ranks."

"And that's not all! I heard that His Majesty had personally read the test papers that would be tested before, personally reprimanded a few copies, and ordered the marking officer to make up a few copies. ”

"So, in that case, the Elder Brother Guang will try to meet the yuan is also in line with His Majesty's wishes?"

"I heard that the Huiyuan agreed upon by the marking officer after reading the file is Brother Guang, and His Majesty has not changed the agreement of the marking officer after that."

"So," someone turned to Hu Guang and said in a congratulatory tone: "Brother Guang, you have been appointed by His Majesty twice, once first and once second, and it is also Jian in the emperor's heart!" ”

Hu Guang hadn't heard of these things these days, and he was a little surprised when he heard it. However, on the surface, he still pretends to be light and light.

There was another person next to him who secretly ridiculed Hu Guang's hypocrisy, and said with a roll of his eyes: "Maybe Your Majesty will summon Brother Guang alone." ”

The crowd laughed. Nothing like this had happened before, and everyone knew he was joking.

Hu Guang himself smiled at the scene, and was about to say something, when he suddenly felt that he was being pulled by someone. He looked back and saw a waiter standing behind him, and when he saw him, he turned his head and said, "Hu Bangyan, Your Majesty has summoned you to answer in front of the palace." ”

Everyone was shocked, especially the person who spoke just now, and they were even more surprised: "Your Majesty has really summoned Hu Guang!" ’

Hu Guang himself was also dizzy and couldn't believe it, and it took a while to accept the matter. He was about to raise his feet and set off, when he heard the waiter say again: "Wang Zhuangyuan is also there?" His Majesty summoned the top five royal officers to answer, so Wang Zhuangyuan should also come with me. ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief: it turned out that His Majesty did not just summon Hu Guang alone. Even Hu Guang himself breathed a sigh of relief, it was not so comfortable to be a person who was in the limelight.

Hu Guang and Wang Gen followed the waiter to the place where Yun Xi was. Similarly, in the corners of the other three Qionglin banquets, there were also three people who stood up with apprehension and followed the waiter.

After a while, a few people walked to a place more than a dozen steps away from Yun Xi, and the waiter went to pass it on, and several of them greeted each other, even if they were not familiar with the same branch of the Jinshi, they knew each other. However, at this time, the five of them were very nervous, and no one had the heart to greet them, even Hu Guang, who was more relaxed just now, was very nervous.

Besides, they don't have much time to say hello. The attendant immediately returned and said to Wang Gen, "Come with me." ”

At this time, Yun Xi was also a little nervous. 'Xie Jin, Xia Yuanji, Jian Yi, Huang Huai, Yang Shiqi, Hu Guang, Jin Youzi, Yang Rong, Hu Yan, Yang Pu, these are the ten most famous civil officials in the Yongle period in history, and this section accounted for four in the second year of Jianye, and I finally collected nine of these ten people. ’

Only Hu Yan was left and did not enter my room. It's a pity that I can't remember when and how Hu Yan entered the court. Yun Xi thought.

Just when he was thinking nonsense, Wang Gen walked up to Yun Xi, knelt down respectfully and said, "The minister Wang Gen has seen Your Majesty. ”

Yun Xi came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Get up." ”

For Wang Gen, Yun Xi's only impression of him is that he talked with two fellow villagers in history before Zhu Di entered Beijing, Xie Jin and Hu Guang both beat their chests and cried and swore to live and die with Yun Wen, but as soon as the words fell, they defected to Zhu Di, but Wang Gen, who did not speak at that time, later died for Yun Wen.

Yun Xi also named him as the champion because of this. Yun Xi also encouraged him very carefully.

But Yun Xi didn't know what his talent was, whether he was a nerd who could only write articles, so he wouldn't entrust him with important tasks for the time being, but planned to stay by his side to observe the Zhongshu people first, so he just encouraged him to go down with a few words.

After that, it was Hu Guang who visited him. Hu Guang's character is of course questionable, but he is very talented and still needs to be used, just remember not to arrange him for positions that need to test his character.

Yun Xi said what he had already thought of and encouraged him, and let him go down.

Then there is Yang Pu, who explores flowers. Yun Xi doesn't know much about Yang Pu, only knows that he read books in prison for ten years, and after Zhu Di died, he was released and formed a three-Yang cabinet with Yang Shiqi and Yang Rong, and he should be a capable person.

Yun Xi also gave him a few words of encouragement and let him go down.

After that, Wu Pu was the second class to pass on the audience. Yun Xi didn't know what this person had done in history, only that he had been raised in the twenty-sixth year of Hongwu, and then he did not take the examination, but went to Guozijian to study. At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang was still there, and Yun Xi was very surprised to hear that a person went to study in Guozijian.

However, because of this, Yun Xi can carefully investigate his words and deeds of the national eunuch. Generally speaking, he is a very simple and outspoken person, and he keeps folding bullets to impeach someone in front of the prisoners of the country, so although he has only one foot in the officialdom, he already has many enemies.

Yun Xi has decided to appoint him as the person in charge of the matter, and such a principled person is very suitable to be in charge of the audit in the matter. Yun Xi also said a few words to him and let him go down.

After that, it's the last one, Yang Zirong. Yun Xi subconsciously rubbed his hands and said.
