Gualja.

After Bayan recruited him into the study a few days ago and talked for nearly an hour, he had already guessed that he would be in the first class in this imperial examination if nothing else. As for whether it is the champion or the top eye, Bayan has no way to guess.

Therefore, today's list, Bayan did not go to see the list, nor did he shoot the servants in the house. Instead, he stayed at home alone, waiting for the annunciation procession to come.

On the other side, the team of the annunciation welcomed Wang Yu on his horse and went to the Li Mansion. That Li Guangdi told his son the news after returning home last night, so Li Zhongxue also knew his results a long time ago.

It was another toss, and by the time Li Zhongxue got on the horse, more than an hour had passed. By the time the team arrived at Gualja House, it was almost noon.

With such a big family surname, and it is the mansion of the prince's wife, the official who leads the way naturally does not dare to be presumptuous. politely explained the reason to the porter, and stood quietly aside and waited.

When Bayan learned that he was the new champion, his mood was as complicated as he was. He knew that he didn't learn this by real talent. is both love and fear for the position of champion.

Therefore, when Bayan came out to see Li Zhongxue and Wang Yu, he was extremely polite. He really loves to read, and he really reads those truths.

In his opinion, his position as the champion came inappropriately, but it seemed to have been stolen from the other two. It's just that although I understand this, I also feel sorry for myself.

But Bayan really didn't have the courage to refuse the position of champion. Whether it's because of yourself or because of your family. He has to take the position of champion.

With this champion seat, the mother's life in the backyard can be better, and Gualjia Mansion also needs this champion seat to support it for a while.

There is an even more important reason, which eliminates all possibilities for Bayan to refuse this position. If he refused, he would be openly speaking of the injustice of the imperial court.

People know that there is shady, and they all know that there are rules for everything. But once the rules and shady scenes are rashly put in front of people, it is never the strong who are unlucky, but the weak.

When Bayan got on the horse, the three people of the first class of the new branch gathered. It took a lot of effort to go around a Beijing city of Nuoda.

The capital has not been as lively as it is today for several days.

On the other side, in the Qianqing Palace, Yinren was doing something particularly important at first sight---- throwing the pot.

Judging from the news received, Kangxi will be able to arrive in the capital in November at the latest. In the past two months, there has been a major drought and epidemic prevention in Beijing, and there has been a small officialdom cleanup.

No matter what time these things are placed, they are big things that can make a sensation when they are brought out casually. With Kangxi's suspicious temperament, he will definitely have to do things again at that time.

Fortunately, I had expected it, otherwise why would I have been sick for so long in the meantime, and then pushed Yinzhen out to take care of the government? This is the best choice for the back.

With a chuckle, Yinren began to write the paper in front of him. first greeted the physical condition of Kangxi and the Queen Mother, and then with a turn of the pen, he began to shake the pot.

After writing, Yinren checked it carefully again, and saw that there was nothing wrong, so he put down the pen with confidence. After thinking about it, Yinren finally picked up the pen and wrote on the paper: "Bushan has been plagued by the epidemic at this time, and now his health is getting worse, and his son has called the imperial doctor to check carefully, and Bushan is afraid that time is running out." ”

"Now in Guerjia Mansion, there are not many people, and there is no person who can take over the burden of Bushan. Erchen really couldn't bear to see Guerjia Mansion fall like this. Therefore, seeing that Nabushan's concubine's articles and theories were of the highest quality, he dared to give him the position of the new champion. ”

Kangxi shows the most affection to the outside world, and it is best to use the word love as an explanation for setting Bayan as the champion.

*******************

On the second day, in the Qianqing Palace.

One hundred and thirty-three new branch top three stood in the hall quite nervously. After all, not everyone has been in contact with the prince so closely. The psychological quality is poor, the palms of the hands are already full of sweat, and a pair of feet seem to be about to fall down at any time.

Yinren chuckled, looked at the one hundred and thirty-three people below, and said loudly: "There are four joys in life, but the long drought is in the rain, the hometown meets the old acquaintance, the cave house spends candle night, and the gold list is inscribed." ”

"You all had a very good time last night." The energetic man hurriedly continued: "Your Highness Xie cares, such a beautiful thing, I can't help but be overjoyed." ”

The rest of the people were a step slower, so they had to say in unison: "Your Highness Xie is worried, and the students are overjoyed." "At this time, they didn't have an official position, and they couldn't call themselves Weichen. has a meritorious reputation, so naturally he can't call himself a grass people. Because Yinren was the chief examiner during the palace examination, he had to call himself a student.

Yinren nodded, and then said to the bottom: "Who are the three people in the first class of this new department?" Stand up and take a look. Before Yinren's words fell, Bayan and the three of them hurriedly stood up.

"Yes, yes, sure enough, all of them are a talent. In his position, you still need to serve the court in the future, and you will be good at dealing with government affairs. ”

just glanced at it, how did Yinren know if these people were talents, but they were just acting on the spot. When the three people below heard this, they ignored the envious eyes behind them, and hurriedly replied, "Students remember the teachings of His Highness. As he spoke, he also gave Yinren a salute.

Yinren glanced at the three of them, and said loudly: "With the first-class champion Bayan, Ren Hanlin Academy revised." Give one side of the inkstone, one hundred taels of silver. ”

"Li Zhongxue, who is a top list, is the editor of the Hanlin Academy. Give a hundred taels of silver. ”

"With a first-class tanhua Wang Yu, he was edited by the Hanlin Academy. Give a hundred taels of silver. Before Yinren's words fell, the palace maids and eunuchs who had been guarding the side for a long time rushed in with the rewards.

The official positions of the first three people and the top two are all determined, and they can take office directly without having to take another examination. As for the others, according to his past results, he will have to make a comparison between several graders to determine whether they will stay in Beijing or be released, or whether they will be listed for meritorious service and will be arranged again in the future.

Waiting for the three of them to retreat, Yinren said to the subordinates again: "Zhao Mengming, the first name of the second class, entered the Hanlin Academy as a Shujishi" There is no additional reward.

In the meantime, the rest of the people were taken to the Baohe Hall by several marking officers, and Yinren followed. This decided to enter the court examination for the non-commissioned officer's position, and it felt quite an alternative interview.

Yinren, the person with the highest status in the capital today, also needs to be present.
