Ji Ning had already finished his article and left the Gongyuan before noon, which was a sign of conceit in the eyes of many people, and many people present were also a little jealous, especially those who were very jealous of Ji Ning's talent itself, such as Qin Feng, who was sitting next to Ji Ning and took the second place in the exam.

"This Ji Yongning, he really treats himself as a dish, the palace test is different from the meeting test and the township test, although you can submit the paper in advance, but don't you know that this just proves that you are arrogant and ignorant? Such a hastily written article must not be much stronger, it seems that my champion is just around the corner! ”

Qin Feng thought that Ji Ning had completed the article in a hurry, and thought that Ji Ning's talent would not be very good, but in fact, in his heart, he had already vaguely admitted that Ji Ning's talent was better than his own, so he had such an idea.

This Qin Feng was jealous of Ji Ning, he looked down at the test paper, there was not a word on it, let alone the test paper, even the scratch paper next to him was empty, and he was a little annoyed in his heart.

"This Ji Yongning, what kind of evil style did he play, he was so arrogant? This boy will have his good fruit to eat sooner or later! After Qin Feng finished speaking, he wanted to write something, but he didn't know what to write in his mind.

The topic is difficult, many people can't write an article, the topic is simple, and the article is even more difficult to write.

Now everyone wants to make their articles outstanding, after all, there are only three places in Dingjia, and if you can't get into the first class Jinshi, it will mean that you will have to take the exam of the Hanlin Academy and the exam of the Temple of Literature later, which makes people feel annoyed when they think about it.

And Qin Feng was a little forward-looking in his heart, he wanted to swing well, but he was also afraid that he would not be able to win the first-class jinshi if he didn't swing well, so in the face of this kind of topic, he would definitely not be able to write his own article quickly after thinking about it, which had nothing to do with the amount of talent he learned.

Ji Ning's psychology is different from him.

In Ji Ning's view, it is okay to be able to enter the Jinshi, as for whether it is a first-class, second-class or third-class jinshi, in fact, it is of little significance, as long as he can't be a first-class jinshi, he will have to take the examination of the Confucian Temple later, and he himself is not ready to participate in the Shujishi exam, then this palace exam is similar to a passing scene, Ji Ning maintains a normal heart, and it is much easier in terms of answering.

The more people have psychological baggage, the more difficult it is to make good friends in this kind of temple examination.

……

……

After Ji Ning handed over the papers and left, the little eunuch who had accompanied Ji Ning, who had only been an hour, hurriedly went in the direction of the inner palace.

The little eunuch's expression was a little restrained, and he kept his head down all the way, for fear of being seen, and he was even more trembling when he saw the little palace maids, and she would pass by the intersection only after those little palace maids passed.

"It's good they didn't see me!" The little eunuch finally craned his head to look into the distance, and finally retracted his head again, like a little turtle, with a smile on his face, and a pair of shallow smiles were also very cute.

She seemed to be very familiar with the environment of the inner courtyard of the palace, and after seven and eight turns, he finally found his destination, which was a small palace with a stone bench in front, and he seemed to have returned to his own territory, sitting down directly, panting, and wiping the sweat from his forehead.

"It's a nice day, man...... It's so weird! The little eunuch actually recalled Ji Ninglai, "The articles he wrote are so profound, I can't understand them, but he told a few small stories in them, I can see it, he is a huiyuan, he should be the champion in the huizhong, then his talent must be very good, and there must be a lot of stories in his mind, if only he could tell me stories every day!" ”

Just as the little eunuch was wandering out of the world, an old eunuch hurriedly ran out.

The old eunuch took the dust, walked over and was blind, and hurriedly said, "Little ancestor, where have you been?" ”

"Huh? Grandpa Sun, I'm ...... I'm going to the front to take the temple test! When the little eunuch laughed, he showed two rows of neat and white teeth, and said.

Grandpa Sun was so blind that he was trembling again, and said, "Little ancestor, are you really going?" Is there no place you dare not go to this palace? Hey, if the emperor knows about it, I'm afraid the old slave's life will be gone......"

The little eunuch smiled: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, even if something happens, I won't say that it has anything to do with Grandpa Sun, uh, in fact, I just want to go out to see it, I don't have a chance to leave the palace, the mother concubine said, I still need two years before I can leave the palace, and then I can go out to see the outside world, but I also want to know what the outside world is like." Grandpa Sun, I met a person before, he was funny, he was writing a story in the article of the palace exam! ”

Grandpa Sun didn't have the heart to listen to the little eunuch's words at all, so he hurriedly said: "Little ancestor, you go in quickly, and let the palace maid change your clothes for you, you are a daughter, what do you look like in the clothes of such a slave?" Little Ancestor, you must not tell me about today's events! ”

The little eunuch smiled and said, "I know! Okay, grandpa grandpa, I'm going to change clothes, I'm so happy today, I met the wisest person in the Great Yongchao, I didn't expect him to be very young, and he looks very funny, and he said thank you to me...... Hee-hee......"

As he spoke, the little eunuch walked into the palace, and Grandpa Sun followed behind, but he didn't dare to say anything when he heard the little master in front of him constantly chattering.

……

……

Under the guidance of the palace guards, Ji Ning walked out of the palace hall step by step.

When he left the palace hall, the weather was still very good, he looked up at the sun overhead, it was close to noon, just because it was still spring, the sun was still far south, this sun was not very dazzling, he squinted and retracted his gaze.

No one was arranged to pick him up, so he had to go back by himself, and there was no one to see him off along the way.

Even Zhao Yuanrong, who sent the exam, would not come to pick him up.

After Ji Ning left the palace, he unconsciously thought of the little eunuch before, he suddenly thought of a little, and his brows couldn't help frowning: "He has been reading the article I wrote carefully, and his mouth seems to be reading silently, I didn't pay much attention to the article when I was writing it, and now I think about it." In the palace examination, the imperial court will not send literate eunuchs to invigilate the examination, so as to prevent the exchange of answers between the little eunuchs and the candidates, or to provide references in the article, this has always been the rule, how can he know words? ”

Thinking of this, he felt that there should be something wrong in some link.

"Don't think about it, a little eunuch, maybe just curious about my writings, even if he really can't read? In addition to passing on the rumor, I will enter the palace to bow to the emperor, I will not enter the palace in the future, and there is no possibility of knowing him again, just as if I have never seen him! ”
