The rising sun shines with golden light, falling on the vermilion courtyard wall and the yellow and green glazed tiles, reflecting the luxurious purple light, and standing in front of the 400 new scholars is the Forbidden City, which symbolizes the majesty of the empire.

Among the new science and technology scholars, except for Tang Yi, who had visited a few times in his previous life and took pictures in a dragon robe, the others couldn't even look outside, let alone come in.

However, at this moment, they can appreciate the demeanor of the heart of the empire with impunity, and even the officials of the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple, who have been waiting for a long time, are smiling and waiting patiently, because this moment is ten years, or even decades of hard work, hard work, gray hair, from a childish boy, to a middle-aged uncle, and it took countless youth, silver, and intelligence to get it.

It was as beautiful as a dream, and everyone wanted to dream for a while, and they looked at the noon gate in front of them presumptuously. In the center to the sun, the position is the meridian, so it is called the noon gate!

In front of it there are end gates, Chengtian gates, Daming gates, and behind them there are Fengtian gates. Within each door, the corridors on both sides are neatly arranged, layer by layer, and the layout is grand.

In strict accordance with the layout system of "five gates and three dynasties" formed since ancient times, the majesty of the palace building is strongly highlighted. The east, west and north sides are connected by three city platforms, surrounding a square square. The north gatehouse, nine rooms wide, the top of the yellow tile hall with heavy eaves. There are thirteen rooms on the east and west city platforms, row up from both sides of the gatehouse to the south, the shape is like a goose wing, also called the wild goose wing building.

In the east and west, the north and south ends of the goose wing building each have a heavy eaves and a pavilion with a spire. The majestic noon gate, like three mountains embracing, five peaks protrude, majestic momentum, so commonly known as five phoenix towers.

Not only is the building majestic, but the guards standing around are even taller, more powerful, wearing a red flying fish suit, holding a gourd axe in their hands, under the sun. It's like a golden-armored god, like the legendary Yellow Turban Warrior.

The new scholars were full of excitement, and they were shocked by the royal majesty, and they blushed one by one, clenched their fists, and kept talking to each other. Whispering.

What is said is nothing more than who will become the champion of Jinke and who is Sandingjia.

Whenever this question is mentioned, the big guy can't help but peek at the young man in the middle of the crowd.

Among the less than 400 jinshi, the average age is more than thirty-three years old, there are a large number of uncles in their forties, and even little old men in their fifties and sixties, and their sons are even much older than Tang Yi.

But it was this young man who created a miracle in the history of the imperial examination, since he participated in the boys' examination. Five big exams, never missed, and is all the way through, now there are understanding yuan and hui yuan, two yuan plus body, it depends on whether the most critical champion will fall on his head!

What is strange is that everyone doesn't have much envy, jealousy and hatred for Tang Yi, as if everything is what he deserves. Just after everyone passed the examination, many seniors sighed and mentioned to them that "it is not easy to live in Chang'an".

Ordinary people rent a small courtyard. It costs more than a dozen taels of silver, and the location is a little better. If the yard is a little more tidy, it will cost more than twenty or thirty taels.

And the new science and technology jinshi started as a petty official of only six or seven grades, usually without power and power, so he could only guard the poor Baba, watch the seniors eat and drink spicy food, and swallow saliva dryly.

Many Jinshi from poor families can only rely on borrowing money to survive. I know the taste best...... But fortunately, everything has passed, starting from Jinke, next to Zhengyangmen, there are spacious and neat courtyards waiting for the big guys.

The self-owned golden house in the book, which has been shouted for many years, has finally become a reality. And the one who helped them win this benefit was the head of Bingchenke, Tang Yi and Tang Xingzhi!

Although Tang Yi has been quite low-key since he entered Beijing, there has never been a secret in the officialdom, and everyone knows that he is a saint. Especially Li Ben's sudden success, the poor baby who lost his teacher, pinned his hopes on the class leader, and looked at Tang Yi's gaze, there was something indescribable.

There are expectations, and there are doubts.

Enjoying the attention of all the people, but also enjoying the roasting of all directions, Tang Yi is not uncomfortable, he is not worried about who the champion belongs to, but because of a thrilling contest in Xiyuan yesterday......

Tang Yi saw the crisis of Bingchenke, as an ambitious guy, Tang Yi would not sit idly by and watch the natural allies of the same branch become cannon fodder, even if it was for himself, he had to protect them. Just imagine, three or four hundred people, even if they are only county commanders, that is hundreds of counties, and the entire Ming Dynasty is only more than two thousand counties, what a powerful force this is, provided that they have enough time to grow up.

After Tang Yi thought about it, he was ready to ask Zhu Dazhu, Tao Dalin and others to send invitations to all the students on his behalf, and everyone would ventilate first to see how many people were willing to come over and how many people could be used.

Just as the big guy was busy working, a carriage suddenly arrived at Tang Yi's residence, and a small face like Maitreya Buddha poked out from the curtain of the car.

"Brother Tang, follow our family to Xiyuan."

The person who came was Huang Jin, Tang Yi didn't dare to slack off, hurriedly followed him into the carriage, and entered the West Garden with a smoke, Huang Jin ran in, and after a while, he ran out with the clothes of a little eunuch.

"Grandpa Huang, this, what does this mean?"

"Don't ask, it's all ordered by the emperor, you hurry up and put it on."

Tang Yi was confused, looking at the eunuch's clothes, he was shy, I don't practice the Sunflower Treasure Book, why do you give me this thing!

Huang Jin also muttered to him, quickly helped Tang Yi change his clothes, and looked at his face again, fortunately Tang Yi was not very old, and his beard had not grown, plus his eyebrows were clear, if he didn't look carefully, he really couldn't see the flaws.

"Brother Tang, our family knows that you love cleanliness, and your clothes are new, hurry up and go in with our family, there will be a good show to play in a while."

Tang Yi was confused, and was pulled closer to the house by Huang Jin, Jiajing was sitting on the gossip cloud bed meditating, Tang Yi came in, he just finished his work, and he didn't speak, just pointed to the door. Tang Yi saw a little eunuch on the other side holding the curtain, so he had to stand on this side, also holding the dark yellow silk curtain.

As soon as he stood up, he heard the eunuch shouting in the voice of a male duck: "Elder Xuanyan Pavilion, Elder Xu Ge, Li Shangshu is here." ”

"Hey, the Big Three!"

Tang Yi was taken aback, and hurriedly held his breath and watched carefully.

After a while, the tall Yan Song, dangling his rickety body, walked in front, medium stature, and the vigorous Li Mo was only one position behind him, and as for the short and capable Xu Jie, he was the last.

It can also be seen from the figures of these three that the current situation is that Yan Song is a well-deserved boss, Li Mo is eager to try and replace him, as for Xu Jie, if anyone treats him as a soy sauce beater, it is guaranteed to be good.

After the three of them saluted Jiajing, Jiajing flattened them, Huang Jin moved an embroidered pier for Yan Song, and before Yan Song sat down, Jiajing said again: "Move a pier for Master Li too." ”

"Yes."

Li Mo's eyes lit up, don't underestimate the seat, for a chattering emperor like Jiajing, any small action is full of deep meaning.

In the past, among the ministers, only Yan Song had a seat, but now that he has a seat, could it be said that he has been on an equal footing with Yan Song in Jiajing's heart, or even replaced him?

Li Mo forcibly suppressed his excitement, hurriedly thanked Sheng'en, said a lot of nonsense, and then sat on the embroidery pier, and looked at Yan Song with a provocative look. From beginning to end, Yan Ge Lao is like a statue, fully demonstrating what it means to be immovable like a mountain.

The two giants sat down, and Xu Ge Lao looked more and more embarrassed, but fortunately, Jiajing did not ignore him and said, "Huang Jin, let Xu Ge Lao also sit down." ”

Huang Jin hurriedly moved another pier over, Xu Jie's excited tears were about to flow out, and he hurriedly knelt down, and his words of gratitude continued......

"Okay, you are all old ministers, you have good clothes and food, take care of the country for me, and everyone has a thousand pounds of heavy burden on their shoulders, it's difficult!"

Yan Song seemed to see the dead leaf turtle of the prey, and quickly dispatched, leaving the two behind, only to see Yan Song's old eyes red, and said bitterly: "Your Majesty's compassion for our courtiers is a blessing that the old minister has cultivated for several lifetimes, but the world is like a scorpion, all of them are incompetent, please punish Your Majesty." ”

Tang Yi laughed in his heart, "You still know that you are incompetent, why don't you get out of here quickly!" ”

Obviously, Jiajing didn't think like Tang Yi, but said with a smile: "It is difficult to cultivate, and it is also difficult to govern the country, Tao Tianshi and I said that from fifty to sixty years old, it is a hurdle, one step at a time, I want to rush through, and I can achieve great success." When the time comes, I will become an immortal, and I will naturally make the world smooth, but before that, you have to take care of the country for me. ”

Yan Song was immediately grateful, knelt on the ground and wiped his tears and said: "Although the old minister is old, when he hears His Majesty say this, he is full of energy, even if he fights a handful of old bones, he must protect His Majesty and wait until the day when the Xuan Gong is completed!" ”

is a loyal Yan Ge Lao, who almost didn't Li Dazai to death.

You're seventy-eight this year, and you're going to work for ten years? Do you really want to squat in the pit to death and not give others a way to live?

Li Mo gritted his teeth, and said in his heart, old thing, your handle has fallen into my hands, and you still want to do it for ten years, I think you can't even get by for ten days!

Thinking of this, Li Mo got up and said: "Assisting Your Majesty in cultivating Xuangong is the duty of the ministers, and the ministers think that in order to let Your Majesty cultivate with peace of mind, they should also rectify the rule of officials and eliminate the deaf and corrupt officials, so that the world can be peaceful and the country prosperous." ”

Jiajing smiled: "That's reasonable, didn't I let you preside over the external inspection, how is the investigation now?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister has been deposed and transferred to more than 380 foreign officials, and the other six sections have been given to Wang He, Yushi Huo Ji and others to investigate and collect the relics, and the political envoy Wang Qiao has been deposed, and Yu Mianxue has been sent to prison to participate in politics, Chen Guanghua, Zhou Dali, Liu Ting and more than ten other people have been ......"

Tang Yi didn't know any of Li Mo Nian's names, but he dared to say that nine out of ten of them were Yan Ge's old people, and Li Dazai was really ruthless.

Tang Yi pondered, but Li Dazai was not satisfied, and said loudly: "The ministers preside over the external inspection, and their duties are limited to the courtiers of the Thirteen Dao, but among the Beijing officials, there are also traitors to the country, and the ministers dare not say it!" ”

Li Mo's words were loud, Tang Yi was almost frightened, no wonder Huang Jin said that it was a good show, and he dared to love Li Dazai to launch a general attack. Thinking about the scene two days ago, Tang Yi couldn't help but raise his heart to his throat, just to see if Yan Song could keep his godson Zhao Wenhua...... (To be continued.) )
