The world-renowned Wanli Gengchen Keshi is finally coming to an end.

The Ming Dynasty held a imperial examination every three years, in the autumn and August of the first year, the Xiucai of the prefectures and counties went to the provincial capital of the province to take the township examination and the examination of the people, which was called Qiuqiu; In the spring and February of the second year, the provincial people and the Guozi prison students entered Beijing to take the examination, and they were called Gongshi, and then they took the palace examination in March, and they were Jinshi in the examination, which was called Chunfu.

In the days when Qin Lin went to Miyun to investigate and handle the Yang Zhao case, people from all over the country who came to Ying Gengchen Kechun were crowded in the capital, visiting literary friends, doing literary meetings, worshipping teachers, and looking for fellow villagers who were Beijing officials to get knots, which made the smoke miasma and sour smell soar to the sky.

The chief officer of this year's examination is Shangshu Shen Shixing of the Scholars and Rites Department of Wenyuange University, and Yu Youding, the right attendant of the Rites Department of the Deputy Chief Examination, is a bachelor of Hanlin, all of whom are officials raised by Zhang Juzheng.

At the end of the test, Qin Lin's old friends, Zhang Jingxiu and Zhang Maoxiu in Zhang Juzheng's mansion, passed smoothly as expected.

Those who did not pass the examination returned to their hometowns gloomily, and only a very few would be cheeky to stay in Beijing to explore the way and prepare for the next subject in three years to make a comeback, which shows that people seem to be a little shorter.

March 15 said, it is the period of the palace examination, the Wanli Emperor Imperial Palace, the tributes are in the east and west of the Imperial Palace, the Ministry of Rites, the waiter is full of promotion, the cabinet auxiliary ministers and the members of the ministries, the Hanlin bachelor is the official of the examination, and the Jinyi Wei invigilator.

Qin Lin, as the smash hit commander of the Jinyi Guard and the commander of the Bei Town, also personally participated in the invigilation work.

Many tables and chairs were added to the east and west of the Emperor's Pole Palace, and hundreds of civil and military officials wore official uniforms to serve in shifts, Liu Shouyou and Qin Lin were the duty officers in charge of invigilating the examination, and they did not stand in the middle of the shift, but led the school captain to inspect around.

Liu Shouyou held the shelf, Qin Lin giggled and gagged with acquaintances, Zhang Juzheng, the head of the Wenchen class, Xu Wenbi, the head of the Wuxun class, Wang Guoguang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Pan Sheng, and others were all old acquaintances of Qin Lin, and when they saw that his hippie smile was not in shape, they didn't think they were angry, and laughed.

Suddenly, someone in the Gongshi group sneered: "Hmph, the minister of good luck, he gained power by chance, and he actually won the crown of the monkey, as if he was a member of the court!" It is a shame for my generation to have such people proctoring! ”

This person's voice is not loud, but Qin Lin's ears are very bright, and when he heard the sound, he looked over there, and it turned out to be Gu Xiancheng, the head of the four sons of Jinling and the first name of Nanjing Township, who had not dealt with him at the beginning.

Gu Xiancheng won the township test in Nanzhili, where the literary style was the most prosperous, and the Ministry of Rites was also in the forefront, this time he was determined to win the champion in the palace test, and he stood behind the entire Confucianism, boasting of being a loyal minister and a righteous man, where did he put Qin Lin, the "minister" who was lucky enough to enter, in his eyes?

The tributes all knew that Gu Xian was famous, and when they heard him say this, several people cast disdainful glances at Qin Lin, that is, it was just that the emperor was accidentally hit by an elephant, and he didn't know what was going on, so he dared to show off his might in front of our group of future court pillars?

Unlike Qiu Hu, NVC and others who have been in the officialdom for a long time, these tributes are all freshly baked "pride of the sky", with eyes above the top and long horns and thorns all over their bodies.

When Qin Lin heard Gu Xiancheng's words, he was immediately furious, and said in his heart You and Liu Huanzhi are friends, and you are also a man who sells his reputation and reputation in his bones, and he has the face to come to me?

He didn't bother with Gu Jing on his face, and he didn't pay attention to Gu Xiancheng's provocation, so he greeted the two brothers Zhang Jingxiu and Zhang Maoxiu in the Gongshi group: "Two Brother Zhang, I wish you the title of the undergraduate gold list!" It's best to win all the top lists, and the brothers are on the same list, which is also a good story. ”

Zhang Jingxiu smiled helplessly, Brother Qin, you are really straightforward, although I do think so, hehe.

Zhang Maoxiu had a much more jumpy surname, and grinned: "Borrow the auspicious words of Brother Qin." But I usually let the eldest brother, this time I can only consign to him as an example - my literary talent is a little better than him. ”

Well, Zhang Maoxiu's implication is that he is the top student in the undergraduate.

The tributes were tickled, and everyone was staring at Gu Xiancheng.

As everyone knows, Gu Xiancheng keeps saying that he wants to win the champion, of course, he is very famous, even if he won the first place in the Ministry of Rites examination last month, Xiao Liangyou, who is honored as the Duke of Huiyuan, is not as high as him.

Qin Lin and Zhang Maoxiu's conversation was completely a slap in the face of Gu Xiancheng!

Sure enough, Gu Jieyuan's face became ugly, and now the exam has not yet started, and the result is unknown, he was also relatively close to the Zhang family brothers some time ago, so although he was unhappy with Zhang Maoxiu, he didn't say anything, just stared at Qin Lin coldly, and wanted to bite him to death:

"General Qin is in charge of the invigilation of the palace, so don't say it too early, otherwise people will be suspicious of what is wrong!"

Damn, there is something in the girl's words, a gun with a stick!

Qin Lin smiled and didn't comment, he didn't know what the hell he had in mind.

Zhang Maoxiu was crimson when he heard this, and when he was about to argue with Gu Xiancheng, the eldest brother Zhang Jingxiu pulled him along, and smiled and made a group: "Everyone, the palace test is the Son of Heaven's ceremony, the most just, since everyone stands in this imperial palace, it is a splendid article with a hand to ask for goods from the emperor's family, why be suspicious before the exam, isn't it self-confusing?" ”

When the tributes heard this, they felt that it was very reasonable, and the mood during the exam was very important, so they no longer talked nonsense with Gu Xiancheng, and some people even secretly complained about him, and they should not let the big guy be suspicious and restless.

"Gu Jieyuan, I wish you to write like a god later!" Qin Lin walked over with a wicked smile, and the others were okay, Zhang Jingxiu and Zhang Maoxiu sighed in their hearts, knowing that this guy had bad intentions.

Emperor Wanli ascended to the palace, the net whip, the salute sounded together, the deacon raised the question into the inside, put the topic on the big case in front of the emperor, the tribute to the big case five bows and three bows, and then in addition to the palace test paper official, the civil and military officials other than the promotion officer retreated, the tribute to the east and west sides of the emperor's palace set up the seat to answer the exam.

In general, in addition to higher specifications and stricter invigilation, it is not much different from the college entrance examination in later generations.

Wanli Emperor Zhu Yijun sat on the throne, Shen Shixing, who served as the official reading the papers, Pan Sheng, who was promoted to the officer, Liu Shouyou, who was the invigilator, and other officials patrolled around, and Qin Lin also swayed from east to west, only circling in front of Gu Xiancheng.

Although Qin Lin was always dangling in front of him, Gu Xiancheng was still attentive to answering the questions, without the slightest interference: Hmph, this little trick wants to distract the master? Dream on! Ye has been tested all the way through the government examination, the township examination, and the general examination, and he has been tested for a long time!

"It's so itchy, I haven't washed my hair in a few days?" Qin Lin suddenly stretched out his hand into the wingless black yarn, and grabbed his scalp with hula hula.

I endure! Gu Xiancheng only felt that his head was itching, and when he thought of the scenery of being the champion, he had to endure the disturbance and ignore Qin Lin.

Damn, you're strong enough! Qin Lin sneered in his heart, and suddenly reached out to scratch his back again, and whispered to himself: "Oops, why is it itching on your back?" I'm going back to take a shower today. ”

I'm still holding up! Gu Xiancheng's sitting skills have also been practiced hard, although he felt itchy on his back after being troubled by Qin Lin, he still gritted his teeth and endured it, and worked hard to write.

Qin Lin's admiration for Gu Xiancheng was like a surging river, but soon he used a big killing weapon.

"Hey, why do the soles of your feet itch too? Amazing, amazing! ”

In front of everyone's eyes, Qin Lin actually reached out to take off his boots, looking like he was going to grab the soles of his feet, Wanli on the throne, Shen Shixing and Liu Shouyou who were patrolling, were all dumbfounded.

I can't bear it, I can't bear it, I can't bear it anymore! Gu Xiancheng couldn't hold his breath anymore, knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, old gentleman, General Qin Lin Qin has repeatedly harassed the students, and it is a ceremony of the imperial court to open a department, how can he be allowed to blaspheme like this!" ”

Shen Shixing worked hard to hold back his laughter, he knew that Qin Lin was a scoundrel, but no one expected him to be such a scoundrel!

Liu Shouyou rubbed his temples that were pounding suddenly, and said in his heart, why did he let Qin Lin be the invigilator this time? Don't call him next time no matter what, otherwise this official will be dragged to death by him!

Qin Lin pretended to be frightened, ran to the front of the palace and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, Weichen was born recklessly, he has never read any books, he only knows that he is brave and loyal to serve the emperor. ”

Feng Bao glanced at Qin Lin, he had already taken the opportunity to slander him before, but he didn't say anything this time, after all, Qin Lin had just saved his life in the matter of Gexiang's rescue.

Wanli looked at Qin Lin's lazy appearance, and then looked at Gu Xiancheng, his face was silent, and his heart was already happy.

Although he is the emperor, he is managed to death by his mother Empress Dowager Li, his companion Feng Bao, and the emperor's teacher Zhang Juzheng, and he can't do anything beyond the norm at all.

But as the emperor, Wanli didn't do anything too much in the end, and looked at Qin Lin: "Since General Qin knew that he was going to be on duty as a palace invigilator, why didn't he bathe in advance?" A vigorous tickling is inevitably unofficial...... However, Gu Xiancheng, as a tribute, is easily disturbed, and this Qi cultivation kung fu is inevitably a little worse. ”

Gu Xiancheng heard that Wanli said that Qin Lin was not, and his heart was full of anger, and later His Majesty said that he lacked qi cultivation skills, and his whole body was suddenly cold.

This Confucianism is talking about self-cultivation and Qi family governing the country and leveling the world, the so-called self-cultivation, to nourish qi as the key, wind and rain do not move like a mountain to be considered kung fu home, Qin Lin tickled, Gu Xiancheng who was taking the palace test was disturbed, speaking of which the pattern of this instrument is inevitably a little worse.

Gu Xiancheng was anxious and wise, and kowtowed again and again: "Your Majesty's eyes are like torches, the student is actually a layer worse than his Qi cultivation kung fu, thank you Your Majesty for your advice!" ”

When Wanli heard him say this, he didn't care about it, and waved his hand to let him go back to answer the questionnaire, but Gu Xiancheng's mood was no longer better, and he became frowning from the beginning of his hard work...... Who told him to offend our Chief Qin? Self-inflicted!

Liu Shouyou saw that Qin Lin was criticized for a few words, and his heart was full of joy, and he jumped out and said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is not strict, Qin Lin knows that the palace test ceremony is not prepared in advance, blaspheming the saints and insulting the official body, please punish Your Majesty!" ”

Wanli laughed: "I have never heard of the truth that if you forget to take a bath, you will be punished, Qin Aiqing is itchy, I will exempt your invigilator......"

Haha, although there is no punishment for the crime, it is a loss of sainthood to remove the invigilator! Liu Shouyou gloated at Qin Lin.

Unexpectedly, Wanli then said: "I don't know how many days Qin Aiqing hasn't taken a bath?" I see that you are uncomfortable like this, so I will give you a bath in the fragrant soup of Yude Palace, wash it and go back! ”

I pour! Liu Shouyou and all the tributes who worked hard to answer the questions fell to the ground.
