Chapter 0256 Gold List Title
In the eager and anxious anticipation of the lifters, the day of Tianbao's five-year spring release has finally come. In Chang'an City, thousands of people were empty, and men, women, and children rushed to watch the list in front of the Tribute Courtyard of the Ministry of Rites.
Every year, there are thousands of people who take the Jinshi examination, and the admission quota is only twenty or thirty, and there are very few people who can be on the list. More than two-thirds of the Tang Dynasty ministers were born in the Jinshi department, which shows how high its gold content is, so it is highly sought after.
The gold list was tied with red silk, and the front was crowded with people, and the water could not be passed. When Li Ang and Tang Yu squeezed in, in the sound of gongs and drums, officials from the Ministry of Rites were posting the list.
"Ahh I'm in! I'm in! The champion is my ......."
Suddenly, someone around him screamed, dancing like crazy. Li Ang saw that this person was over fifty years old, with slight spots on his sideburns, wasn't it the old man who almost fell down when he left the examination room that night, what is the name of this old man, sheep and chickens?
Li Ang hurriedly went to see the gold list, only to see that the top of the list had the words "sheep attacking Ji" written on the top of the list. Damn, it's not a dead chicken!
"Hit! Hit! Brother Sun, we've won! ”
Immediately afterwards, Tang Yu next to him also shouted in surprise. Li Ang also saw clearly that there were a total of twenty-one people on the list this time, he was ranked twelfth, and Tang Yu was ranked in the bottom twenty.
In the crowded crowd, there were constant cries of surprise, and the various ecstatic performances of the people on the list were wonderful, and some even hugged the old lady next to them and laughed, fluttering like a fairy.
Li Ang wanted to be calmer, but when he saw his name on the list, he still couldn't suppress the joy in his heart, laughed loudly, patted Tang Yu's shoulder and said, "Brother Tang, congratulations!" Congratulations! ”
"Hahaha, the sun is happy! Rejoice! ”
While the two were talking, someone next to them suddenly exclaimed: "Ah! Champion Lang fainted. Hurry up and save people......." Li Ang hurriedly turned his head to see, the dancing sheep attacked Ji, this time it really turned into a dead sheep, and the person fainted on the ground, foaming at the mouth.
Depend on! Isn't that the case?
"Get out of the way, get out of the way......" Leon squeezed through. Helping to press the person's acupoint, it took a while for the sheep and the dead chicken to wake up, but as soon as he woke up, he did not thank Li Ang, but hugged him and shouted: "I'm hit!" It's me! I'm the champion......"
Syllable! Syllable!
Leon suddenly opened his bow left and right and gave him two slaps, and the sheep and chickens were stunned, and the crowd of onlookers were also stunned. Leon held out a finger. Shaking left and right in front of the eyes of the dead chicken, his cloudy eyes watched Leon's fingers turn back and forth.
"Champion Lang, you must know that happiness is very sad! Calm down, calm down, if you do this again, I'm afraid this champion will have to be given to the second place. ”
After Li Ang finished speaking, he got up to leave, and the crowd of onlookers suddenly burst into laughter. As the people of Chang'an City. Every year, the list is released in the spring, and there are many crazy performances of those on the list. However, it is the first time I have seen the slap champion, and it is also very revealing, this time I have seen a long time!
Some people are happy and some are worried, Di Yuan, Wei Ruliang, Wu Ziqing, and Qian Shi all failed to make the list, and their expressions could not hide their loneliness, and they came up to congratulate Li Ang and Tang Yu. Only Qian Shi was the most open, and he smiled: "Among the six of us, two friends are on the list, this is a great joy, congratulations to Brother Li." Congratulations, Brother Tang! ”
Di Yuan and the three of them listened to it, so they put away their sad faces and came up to congratulate, Di Yuan said very sincerely: "Among the six of us, two of them are on the list, which is already commendable, and I sincerely congratulate Li Ang and Brother Tang." ”
Although Li Shizhi is the left minister, the number of places in the Jinshi Department is limited, and it is unlikely that all of them will be admitted, and everyone is still prepared for this.
When Li Ang and the others returned home, Wu Xiaole had already come back in advance to report the good news, and Nangong Ziyan was directing his subordinates, with colorful lights and beaming with joy.
Nangong Ziyan took his family up to congratulate Li Ang and Tang Yu, and there were bursts of gongs and drums on the street.
In later film and television dramas, Kejinshi's costumes are very popular, they look very magnificent, very gorgeous, but in fact they are not like that.
The Jinshi uniform sent by the officials is a set of white robes, made of linen, so there is "a robe like rotten silver and brocade, and the phase will go to the sky during the day." The Tang poem describes the new science and technology jinshi.
Although the jinshi uniform is only a white robe, the glory is not diminished. Of course, the reward money for the officials who reported the good news was also indispensable, Wang Er and Li Qi used a basket to carry out most of the baskets of yellow and clear copper coins, less than ten times, all distributed to the officials and soldiers who reported the good news, and everyone was happy.
With such a big movement, the neighbors were alarmed, and they also came to congratulate them, so it was not lively.
Xiao Luan and Yang Nan are the eldest daughters of Huanghua, so it is not easy to come in person, but they also sent people to send congratulatory gifts. That's fine, neither of them is a fuel-efficient lamp, and I'm afraid that nothing good will happen when they get together, so Li Ang will also have peace of mind.
Immediately afterwards, more and more people came to congratulate them, such as Gongsun Jingyu, Li Xia, Yu Chaoen, etc., all came with a car full of congratulatory gifts, and it became very lively here.
It is worth mentioning that some frustrated people also came shyly, and while congratulating, they asked Li Ang and Tang Yu for clothes to wear.
I don't know when it began, there was a rumor circulating in Datang that if you could get a piece of clothing worn by a new Kejinshi, you would be able to bring yourself good luck, and it would be very auspicious to participate in the imperial examination next time.
The imperial examination is a single-plank bridge crossed by thousands of troops, and the pressure of competition is very great, and each person carries the expectations of family, relatives, and friends, and is burdened with heavy pressure.
Yesterday they were still on an equal footing with each other, but today they are forced by pressure, but they have to hold on to a glimmer of hope and cheekily ask for an old dress, and the sense of humiliation in their hearts can be imagined.
Li Ang couldn't do this kind of thing shyly when he asked himself, and he also had great sympathy for those who fell behind, so he simply told Xiaoxue to bring more of his old clothes, but if he asked for something, he would give one piece, until he finished distributing.
Those Jinshi groups who had been fully prepared for a long time and were waiting for the release of the list came to the door in time.
These jinshi groups are somewhat similar to the wedding companies of later generations. In addition to the official banquets, there will also be a large number of banquets and tours between the Jinshi and the first party.
The title of the gold list is a major event in life and the most interesting moment. Most of the new science and technology practitioners will indulge in profligacy, carnival, and do not hesitate to spend, which contains great business opportunities.
The Jinshi were dizzy by the endless complicated etiquette, how could they take care of the chores themselves, so in Chang'an, a business group dedicated to serving the new science and technology Jinshi was born-Jinshi Group.
They prepare banquets for the new scholars, organize gatherings, open the way, act as escorts, wine pickers and other services, in short, as long as you have something to ask for, they will try their best to do it for you, the service is very thoughtful, and there are special event planners and hosts, making the banquet impressive.
Of course, if you have to pay.
In the whole day, Li Ang and Tang Yu have not been idle. Those who know and those who don't know keep coming to congratulate, and this is just the beginning, and the big scene is still to come.
The next day, 21 new scholars gathered and went to thank the master Da Xixun. At this gathering, Li Ang couldn't help but secretly sigh, the so-called fifty young jinshi is really not an exaggeration at all.
Twenty-one in the same year, the champion Yang Xiji is already over half a hundred years old, two temples are in the class, but he is definitely not the oldest, three of them are even nearly seventy years old, and they are trembling when they walk, and the rest of the people are mostly in their forties and fifties, and only one named Han Jin is the same age as Tang Yu, in his twenties.
However, it is such a group of old men who are still warmly sought after. The names of twenty-one people were rumored all over the world, and the people of Chang'an City crowded on both sides of the street to watch, and the entire Chang'an City was boiling.
Among the twenty-one people, Li Ang is the youngest and the most handsome in terms of age, which makes him very stressed!
The atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty is so open, will there be a royal princess, or the daughter of a high-ranking official or dignitary, rush in and divide herself? Well, although such a thing didn't happen for the time being, but along the way, pieces of brocade, sachets, a dozen hydrangeas, and bunches of flowers really made Li Ang a little dizzy.
The screams of women and the cheers of people are heard on the side of the street from time to time.
All the new jinshi, under the leadership of the champion Yang Xiji, came to the examiner's mansion together to inform their names and places of origin, and they were at home with the examiner.
Don't underestimate this, in fact, this is the first step for the new science and technology to enter the officialdom and establish personal relationships. If you misbehave, dislike the teacher, and your notoriety spreads, then your life is almost over.
Next, it is time to prepare for the Qujiang banquet attended by the emperor. This is the grand finale of the main play.
The new branch scholars were dressed in red silk with a cross, accompanied by the imperial court officials, guarded by the soldiers, led the way by drums and colored flags, and went to Qujiang with blowing and blowing. "On the pavilion in front of Twelfth Street, who doesn't look at the gods with rolling blinds."
Everywhere you pass, there are thousands of empty alleys, and even the daughters of the boudoir have rolled up the curtains, and they regard the new science and technology scholars as ordinary immortals, competing to see their appearance.
At the Qujiang banquet every year, those Jinshi who have not yet married have become the objects of competition between the royal relatives and the families of high-ranking officials and dignitaries, and everyone is vying to choose a son-in-law who is riding the dragon.
And once those new Jinshi were selected as the east bed, there was a rich dowry to follow, so that whenever at this time in Chang'an City, the cars of the officials and nobles transporting the dowry lined up in a long line, and the spectacular scene, countless dowries, filled the streets and alleys.
Therefore, whenever there is a banquet in Qujiang, not only the emperor often attends in person, but the common people in Chang'an City rush to come to both sides of the Qujiang River to see the excitement, "Chang'an is almost empty".
In such an unprecedented scene, it seems that the protagonist is no longer the emperor, nor the imperial minister, but the twenty or thirty new scholars. When a jinshi has such a scenery, even some emperors are envious, and they only hate that they can't be a jinshi in this life.
