After the roll call is completed, the music starts again, the hundred officials and the new science and technology scholars kneel three times and bow nine times, and finally the emperor gives the 'big gold list', which is handed over to the Ministry of Rites to hang outside the noon gate for three days. The orchestra plays the chapter of harmony and peace. Licheng, the emperor returned to the palace by public opinion.

When the emperor left, all the ministers gathered around to congratulate the candidates, but today's glory is destined to be led by Shen Mo alone, because he has won six yuan in a row! The imperial examination has been in place for thousands of years, and there are more than ten people who have been in the three yuan, and the Ming Dynasty also has Huang Guan and Shang Chen, the former is also the sixth yuan in the company, and has created the myth of the champion to the waiter of the Ministry of Rites within seven years, but for some reason, the official does not recognize his achievements.

Therefore, the officially recognized Lianzhong Sanyuan has only the name of the Chenghua period, and the first assistant to the cabinet is only one person, but the old county of Shangge is not the first, and after the twenty-one year old, it took another ten years to reach the first place at the age of thirty-one, and the heaviest two yuan in the company.

And Shen Mo has been participating in the county test for the second time, all the way through, none of the previous big exams have missed, and finally won six yuan, no matter from which point of view, it is much more beautiful than the old Shangge.

On top of this glory that shook the past and the present, there was also a little embellishment on the cake, which was the conclusion reached by the scholar Li Ben after personally consulting the records of the previous dynasties - Shen Mo broke the record of winning the championship at the age of 20 held by Fei Hong, who was the champion of Chenghua for 23 years and was the first assistant of this dynasty. To be exact, when Fei Hong won the championship, he was twenty years and eight months old, and Shen Mo is now nineteen years and seven months, which has improved the record by a full year and one month.

The ministers of civil and military affairs and the princes and nobles are surrounded by this new champion who is destined to be unsurpassed, and they must vent their admiration in their hearts like the flooding of the Yellow River, otherwise they have to suffocate to death.

This made Shen Liushou miserable, he only felt that there were more than 10,000 flies flying in his ears, and he really wanted to roar: "Is there an end?!" ’

Fortunately, at this time, the elders saved him, and the scholar Li Ben smiled and said: "Everyone, Sanding Jia still has to change his clothes, waiting for us to 'praise the official in the royal street'. ”

Now that the elder has spoken, of course the adults are interested: "The business is important, the business is important!" Only then did he let go of Shen Mo and the others.

Li Ben smiled and said to Shen Mo, Zhu Dashou, and Tao Dalin: "The three of you will go to the side hall to change your clothes, and we will set off when we come back here." ”

Shen Mo and the three of them were the first big girls to get on the sedan chair, so they could only say what they were, so they went to the side hall under the leadership of the three Honglu Temple officials.

The side hall has been surrounded by a curtain cloth into three dressing rooms, Honglu Temple officials took three people into each one, ordered the palace maids waiting inside to change their clothes, and then retreated outside to wait.

Under the service of the palace maids, Shen Mo first took off only a pair of trousers, and then replaced the cotton cloth with a white silk ...... This means that he officially became a member of the Ming Dynasty officials and could legally wear silk and satin...... Although he has not worn cloth for many years, it is always good to be able to wear silk with confidence.

Then the wide-sleeved dark blue Jinshiluo robe was also replaced by the round-necked court robe of Chiluo Qingyuan, which was no different from the ministers; The leather belt around the waist was replaced with a plain silver belt, a jade pendant with medicine, and even the black gauze hat on the head had a big red flower on the left and right...... Originally, it was quite cool to be silent, but as soon as the flower was inserted, he was not happy, and said in his heart that he inserted this thing, not like the champion Lang, but like the groom's official.

In fact, the groom's official attire is officially imitated by the champion lang, but compared to the groom that everyone can be, the champion lang who only comes out once in three years is too rare, so that when Shen Mo saw the hairpin hat, his first reaction was the hat of the groom official.

The palace people carefully dressed him, then brought a mirror, looked at it silently, and said in their hearts how good it would be without those two flowers. But the champion hairpin is a rule, and he can't get rid of it no matter what.

After confirming that it was correct, the palace people led it out, and the other two were already waiting outside, squeezing each other's eyes and smiling, and the silence in his heart was much more balanced.

But I have to admit that it makes sense for people to rely on clothes and Buddha to rely on gold, originally wearing the blue-black Jinshi uniform, the three of them are like three scholars, but now after changing into court clothes, they really have the appearance of officials.

When the three of them returned to Fengtian Palace, the four scholars of the cabinet, except for Yan Ge Lao, who was already tired and paralyzed, Xu Jie, Li Ben, and Zhang Zhi were all waiting there, and when they saw the three young Junyan come out, the three pavilion elders smiled and said: "Don't say anything else, just look at the appearance, this year's Sanding Jia is better than the previous twenty years." ”

How dare the three of them talk to the old man of the pavilion, and hurriedly salute respectfully: "Teacher......" Xu Jieli was originally the chief and deputy chief examiner of the examination, and Zhang Zhi was the chief reading officer of the palace examination, so they all had to be called so.

Xu Jie, Li Ben, was naturally very happy, but there was a trace of reluctance in Zhang Zhi's smile, in fact, he had not slowed down since he met the saint last night...... Looking back to yesterday, when Lu Bing pulled the champion and Xiangrui together, Zhang Gelao behaved like what was sung in the play: 'I was surprised when I heard this, like cold water pouring ice in my arms. The liver and intestines are broken, unable to speak, Yunmeng covers his eyes and ears are ringing, and his heart is like a knife piercing his body, and he has to fight......

He scolded himself in his heart for being 'so stupid' 10,000 times, in fact, when he was in the final general nucleus, he had already discovered that Huiyuan had fallen into the top three, and he was sweating at that time, and said that Huiyuan was hand-picked by the emperor, if it fell into the top three, where would Emperor Jiajing's old face go?

But he didn't dare to offend the hot Li Shiyan, so he thought of a way not to offend, using the privilege of the chief to point Shen Mo to the top of the second, and gave a comment: 'The writing is brilliant, the handwriting is handsome, it should be the first, but the argument is cautious, a little twilight, not as good as the rest of the son. That is to say, admitting that the silent writing and calligraphy are impeccable, but the countermeasures are too cautious, lest they do not conform to the holy will, so it is reasonable not to hand them over to the emperor.

As soon as he put down his heart, Lu Bing, who should not oppose Li Mo the most, suddenly threw out the 'Six Auspicious Sayings', and won the favor of His Majesty, which made Zhang Ge Lao at a loss.

But if the matter only stopped there, it would be enough, anyway, an ambush had already been set up, and the silent scroll was taken, and the emperor was named the champion, and his wish was fulfilled.

But when Emperor Jiajing looked at the silent scroll, he was furious and said: "Such an old and serious words for the country, aside from the auspicious and ominous, should also be deserved, you actually say that it is twilight!" I think it's you who are presumptuous! He even scolded the two Shangshu and said: "The champion recommended by you actually advocates reopening the sea ban, building a strong army on the sea, and reproducing the majesty of Taizong!" Ever wondered, how much does it cost? Labor and money, big and inappropriate! It's very rash! As he spoke, he directly pointed the finger at the two Shangshu and said: "It must also show that your views are also aggressive!" ”

Obviously, Shen Mo guessed the emperor's thoughts, and Jiajing now regretted causing such a big stir, and was also frightened by the problems he faced once the ban was lifted...... The angry emperor actually put Xu Wei, who was originally promoted as the champion of the three people, into the second class...... Fortunately, his green words were written so well that the emperor couldn't bear to be a killer and gave him a first pass. Since Xu Wei was not dethroned, the later people who held this theory also followed suit, and they did not fall too badly.

However, Zhu Dashou and Tao Dalin, who were originally placed in the last two, were named by the emperor as an example and a flower, just because their articles were similar to Shen Mo's views, and they both said that "Shengming has no ancestors and is correct not to allow the people to go to the sea, but Taizong is also extremely wise, and the official exclusive trade can effectively curb private smuggling and increase financial revenue." But the difference between the two and Shen Mo is that they did not propose a viable surname. And Shen Mo discussed in detail how to do it in order to achieve the greatest results with the least trouble, which is really too much for Jiajing's appetite.

The layman looked at the excitement and only thought that the emperor wanted to show that he had read the papers in person, but the three adults were experts in the doorway, and they all knew that the papers that had been ranked were all in favor of the ban on opening the sea. And those who have been raised are all advocating prudence, which makes people shudder.

Obviously, the three adults misunderstood the holy will, or said that they didn't keep up with the transmuted Emperor Jiajing, and it was nothing if they were placed with other emperors, so it was a big deal to apologize and promise to keep up with His Majesty's pace. But Emperor Jiajing attaches great importance to the 'tacit understanding between monarchs and ministers', and has always abandoned officials who can't be thought of with him...... The three of them were naturally unwilling to be turned into a category of 'no common language' by the emperor, and finally struggled: "Actually, the ministers have also thought about this arrangement, but when they think that the top four are all Shaoxing scholars, I am afraid it will cause criticism......

"What's there to criticize?" Emperor Jiajing said unhappily: "I remember the second year of Yongle, and the top five were all from Ji'an, Jiangxi. It's all auspicious! Saying that, he coldly swept the three people: "Could it be that you are cheating?" ”

"The ministers don't dare." The three of them hurriedly denied it: "It's because the ministers are too worried!" ”

"I don't think when I should think about it, and I don't think about it when I shouldn't," Emperor Jiajing laughed and said, "This is my minister, let's step aside......"

After going back, the more Zhang Zhi thought about it, the more scared he became, so much so that he still had palpitations when he saw these three today...... For a while, I was moved by the idea of returning to my hometown, of course, this is a later story.
