@@礼部试的上榜名单终于公布出来了, Yang Yi is the top spot; the second is named Bi Yan, a candidate from Qianjiang on Jingnan Road; the third is named Yu Jing, a native of Taiyuan; The fourth place is Qin Zigui.

As soon as the rankings came out, Qin Zigui shouted, his face flushed with excitement, as if he was about to faint! Yang Yi doesn't look good, but don't be happy and sad! Hurriedly slapped him twice in the face: "Zigui, what about you!" Wake up! Wake up! ”

A distinct palm print appeared on both cheeks of Qin Zigui, Yang Yi saw that his hands were heavy, and hurriedly said: "That Zigui, the foolish brother is proficient in medical skills, he doesn't lie to you, and patting his cheeks often is good for his health!" Really ......"

Yang Yi said that in the end, he couldn't help but burst into laughter! Qin Zigui didn't care at all, he didn't smile, came up and solemnly gave Yang Yi a salute and said: "Brother Yang's careful teachings, Zigui will remember it!" Please accept my worship, Brother Yang! ”

"Slow down! Slow down! Qin Zigui, if you do this again, be careful to give you two more slaps for your brother, hahaha! ”

Qin Zigui still insisted on giving him a salute, this year can be a Jinshi, definitely no worse than the 10 million grand prize in the later life, it can be said that the two can not be compared at all, although the ranking of the Ministry of Rites is not the final result, but the palace test usually only makes some adjustments in the ranking, no matter how you adjust, you are a Jinshi! It is certain that Sun Shan will not be lost again.

Early the next morning, hundreds of famous scholars came to Xuande Gate, led into the palace by the officials of the Ministry of Rites to participate in the palace examination, the order of the queue is divided according to the ranking of the Ministry of Rites examination, Yang Yi walked in the front in a green shirt, heroic, handsome and extraordinary, there are princesses and palace maids in the palace in the distance to watch, from time to time there are laughter and exclamations.

Walking behind Yang Yi is Bi Jian, Bi Yan is sixty-five years old this year, with a fluttering white beard and a childish face!

Naturally, Yu Jing, who came to the third place, was fifty-two years old, and his temples were a little gray, but as the saying goes, fifty young jinshi, he was only two years older than young jinshi, at best, he was a young and strong jinshi.

Walking in fourth place is Qin Zigui, not to mention, he is two months younger than Yang Yi, and he is really less than eighteen.

The combination of these four people looks a little weird, two old and two young, the age gap is enough to be grandchildren, the green shirt is the head, the white beard is followed, and it is no wonder that the palace maids in the distance are laughing and laughing.

After entering the Xuande Gate, the first thing that catches your eye is the Daqing Palace, the Daqing Hall is generally the place where the Great Dynasty will be held, followed by the Zichen Palace, the Chang Dynasty will be held in Zichen, and then the Wende Palace, the Gonghui Palace, the Chongzheng Palace, the Longevity Palace, the palace of the Great Song Dynasty is relatively small, the distribution of the palaces is not on a central axis, the halls seem to be scattered and scattered in the meantime, less solemn, but more interesting.

At the same time, because of the limited area, the palaces of the Great Song Dynasty are built relatively high, and they look very majestic, like the Chongzheng Hall where the palace test was held this time, the main hall has two floors, which is very spectacular, and there are side halls that extend out on both sides!

The officials of the Ministry of Rites introduced hundreds of scholars into the Chongzheng Hall, where tables and stools had been set up, and the names of the candidates were marked on the tables, and each person found his seat in turn.

At this time, Zhao Xu came out of the palace in a red crown robe, and the officials in the palace and hundreds of scholars visited together, the scene was very spectacular, Yang Yi knew that the person he saw in the Shangqing Palace was Zhao Xu, so he was not surprised, to his surprise, the old man Zhang and Li Qingchen were also in the palace, when the old man Zhang saw him, as if he didn't know him, and even his eyes didn't change, but Li Qingchen's gaze at him was a little complicated, as if he was mixed with thoughts.

Zhao Xu said something in the palace according to the routine, nothing more than that the imperial court attaches importance to the imperial examination, recruits talents from all over the world, and finally announces the examination questions, the examination questions of the palace examination are made by the emperor himself, he may have thought about it in advance, or he may have made an exam question at random temporarily, anyway, it was announced by the emperor himself on the spot before the provisional examination.

Zhao Xu gave the exam question this time: On the pros and cons of the two tax systems.

The palace test was given three hours, and Yang Yi took an hour to answer the question, it can be that he was very serious, Zhao Xu's question was what Yang Yi had talked about with him in the Shangqing Palace, perhaps Yang Yi's argument deeply touched Zhao Xu, so that he wanted to take it out to test these Jinshi to see what different opinions these people had.

This is not surprising, whether it is the Ministry of Rites Examination or the Palace Examination this time, what Zhao Xu wants to express is nothing more than his governance program, and the talents he wants to admit must also be talents in this area!

The palace examination is not to determine the ranking on the spot after the examination, but also to go through a series of complex procedures, first by the inner attendant to collect the test papers, handed over to the arranger, the arranger is responsible for pasting up the candidate's place of origin name, marked with the serial number, and then handed over to the seal officer, by the seal of the new transcription of the test paper, used the imperial seal, and then handed over to the examiner to determine the grade, after the completion of the seal, sent to the examiner to determine the grade, each bad section by a special person responsible, separated from each other, the requirements are extremely strict.

After the final ranking is determined, it is handed over to the emperor himself for review, and the emperor himself generally only looks at the top ten test papers, and he hand-picks out the champions, list eyes, and flowers.

This process usually takes two days to complete.

After the palace test, Yang Yi and Qin Zigui just came out of the Xuande Gate, when they saw an old pounce coming up, respectfully saluted Yang Yi and said: "Yang Langjun, my family Shangshu invited Yang Langjun to go to the house for a banquet, and I hope that Yang Yijun will enjoy the light." ”

After speaking, he handed over an invitation, Yang Yi opened it and saw that it was Su Song who invited him, and Qin Zigui on the side also saw it, and immediately cast a playful look!

"Hahaha! Congratulations to Brother Yang, congratulations to Brother Yang! ”

"Zigui, are you looking for a fight? Su Shangshu is a talented and virtuous person, how can you be allowed to talk nonsense! ”

"Brother Yang, I was wrong! Hehe, the little brother said goodbye, waiting for the good news, hehe...... Haha......"

Qin Zigui still couldn't help but laugh and laugh, and then ran away, Yang Yi asked the old servant a little embarrassed: "May I ask the old man, that ...... He has no talent and no virtue, and he has no dealings with Su Shangshu, why did Su Shangshu suddenly invite him to a banquet? ”

The old servant didn't even dare to say it, and respectfully saluted him: "Yang Langjun don't torture the old slave, my family Shangshu has already prepared a banquet, and Yang Langjun will know when he arrives." ”

Su Songde was highly respected, and he came forward to ask Yang Yi to naturally not go, the old servant led him to the carriage on the side of the road, and with a command, the carriage went briskly.

Looking at the smile on the face of the old servant on the side of the car, Yang Yi was even more bottomless in his heart, wouldn't he really let Qin Zigui's stinky mouth guess correctly, right?

In recent years, powerful people in Tokyo like to go to the field to choose a son-in-law, which has formed a kind of atmosphere, regardless of the yin and yang between the man and his daughter, and no matter what the man's background and family situation are, anyway, you are on the list;

This custom is called 'catching a son-in-law under the list', and the woman will also give the man money, called 'catching money', at first it was only a powerful family to do this, and now the situation is developing greatly, and the rich merchants and wealthy gentry families have also joined the ranks of 'catching sons-in-law under the list', and multiplied the payment of 'catching money', in order to lure people to take the bait, and catch a son-in-law once to give more than 1,000 guan, this phenomenon is unimaginable in the pre-Tang Dynasty that paid attention to the door.

As long as the man agrees, the woman is convenient to come, offering Zhang, applying a few shades, and embroidering gold and jade, so that the man's family will get rich overnight, and after the auspicious day is selected, it will be the sound of Shengxiao, Qiang Yang is approaching, and the woman comes by flowers......

Not to mention far, Li Yi's grandfather Li Qingchen was the top student in high school, and he was 'caught' by the Han family in this way.

Yang Yi is now the first place in the Ministry of Rites test, as long as there is no accident, one of the champions, Bangyan, and Tanhua must fall into his arms, plus he is young and handsome, he is definitely the target of the focus of the powerful family, so it is not ruled out that Su Song will start in advance.

Yang Yi kept comforting himself in the carriage: he should have thought too much! Thinking about it, Su Song just succumbed to his strong style in the lobby of the Criminal Department, and invited himself to drink a drink......

But this reason ...... To be honest, Yang Yi himself didn't believe it much!

The carriage quickly drove into the Ming Palace, and Yang Yi couldn't help but close his eyes and sigh with a sigh!

When the car stopped, as expected, this Su Mansion was Bisu Mansion, which was the high-gate mansion that Yang Yi and Qin Zigui had followed the little lady of the Su family and watched her walk in.

Thinking of the beauty of the little lady of the Su family, but Yang Yi felt that he couldn't bear the appearance of a scientist, and when he walked to the Su Mansion, his heart was even more bottomless!

Su Fuli heavy door deep courtyard, after entering the gate again a hanging flower door, the hall pavilions are lined up one after another, now it is the turn of spring and summer, the season of all things is vibrant, the Su family courtyard is full of wind curtains, the green shade reflects the household, some pretty maid rings walk in the meantime, giving people incomparable visual enjoyment.

The old servant did not stop in the front hall, but took Yang Yi through it, inside is a large garden, this garden is full of simple, sparse, elegant, wild meaning, there are many bamboo cultivation plants on the edge of the clear pond, the bamboo is planted in the middle of the bamboo tree, the wooden cloister winds among them, the old servant takes Yang Yi to a bamboo pavilion.

At this time, there is a faint sound of the piano in the bamboo forest, and the sound of the wind blowing the bamboo leaves, which makes people feel as if they are in a poetic landscape painting......
