Gossip is a person's day, and the people who are doing it suddenly see that there is a lively look, and there is no conversation just now. The gentleman who was originally a storyteller also kept his mouth shut, apparently knowing that these people were more interested in things over there.

Many people know these people, Wen Zhenmeng is a very famous figure, and there are very few people who have participated in the examination who don't know Wen Zhenmeng. Sun Zhiqi on the side is also very famous, with rich family assets and very talented. Although it is not possible to enter the first class, there is still no problem with the second class.

Everyone is all thinking about watching the excitement, and now that the ranking of the exam has not yet come out, it is natural to have such a thing as a pastime!

Looking at Sun Zhiqi with a provocative face, Ni Yuanlu and the others all frowned, and a disgust flashed on their faces. I don't have a good impression of this person, and I'm really tired of it.

"This brother is reasonable, and the imperial court's talent selection ceremony is naturally a selection of talents. Until the results are announced, no one can say for sure. Before they could speak, a thin young man had already walked over, his face was a little pale, but his eyes were constantly flashing with jīng.

I saw a smile on his face, came to Sun Zhiji's side, hugged his fists slightly, and said respectfully: "In Xia Wang Duo, the cursive word Juesi." I just listened to my brother's remarks, and the introduction is quite profound, and he is really a model for my generation! ”

After looking up and down at the visitor, Sun Zhiqi also laughed, squinted his eyes and said, "Brother Tai is dignified, but he is the dragon and phoenix among people!" In the next grandson's hedgehog, the cursive word dragon whisk. Today, I have to meet my brother, it is really a blessing for three lives! ”

Seeing that the two of them were polite to each other, Lu Xiangsheng's brows furrowed even tighter, how could there be such a person everywhere. At this time, a thought flashed in his heart, these people's eight-strand articles are doing well, but can they really be good officials? Can they really benefit the people? Or even enter the court?

A thought suddenly flashed through Lu Xiangsheng's mind, maybe this imperial examination system should be changed, but he was immediately taken aback by his own thoughts. Hurriedly suppressed this thought, reached out and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.

"Isn't this Brother Ni? Why are you still in the capital, and you have already married a wife, then you should go home! It is also a beautiful thing for both husband and wife to return home! As if he had just seen Ni Yuanlu, Sun Zhiqi looked at Ni Yuanlu with a smile with a heavy mockery on his face.

Standing up slowly, Ni Yuanlu's face flashed with anger, but he still hugged his fist at Sun Zhiqi and said with a smile: "Isn't this Brother Sun?" Didn't bring a concubine today? The younger brother heard that this time Brother Sun entered Beijing, he has already accepted six concubines, and he is really a model for my generation. The younger brother thinks that Brother Sun should be in high school, after all, there are so many concubines, how can he plant one. When you hold a full moon wine next year, don't forget to inform your little brother, and your little brother will be a cheer! ”

Ni Yuanlu's voice was not loud, but at this time, the hall was very quiet, and the words reached the ears of everyone present. Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they looked at Sun Zhiqi with a mocking face, and they all laughed and whispered.

"You talk nonsense, blood spews!" Sun Zhiqi looked at Ni Yuanlu viciously and scolded loudly.

"Some people don't know why they came to the capital! Thinking that my generation has been suffering for ten years and has gone through a lot of hardships, what is the so-called thing about reading the books of sages? We are not for fame and fortune, not for promotion and wealth, but for the common people in the world and the people. The right emperor knows the grace of the encounter, and the right one is supported by the people, so we might as well go to this world for a while! Standing up was a young man in his twenties, who bowed his hand to the people around him and smiled kindly.

As he spoke, this person walked to Lu Xiangsheng's table, bowed respectfully, and said with a serious face: "In Xia Wang Qiaonian, this is Lu Xiangsheng Lu Gongzi?" ”

Lu Xiangsheng was slightly stunned, he didn't expect this young man to actually know him, so he quickly stood up and replied: "It's Lu, I don't know what this little brother has to say?" ”

"Brother Lu misunderstood, and when the younger brother heard about Lingzun Lingtang, he was extremely impressed. When I see Brother Lu today, I can't wait to get acquainted! Lingzun Lingtang is a model for my generation, and it will naturally go down in history. Saying that, Wang Qiaonian glanced at Sun Zhiqi, and the corners of his mouth turned slightly upturned and said: "Although some people read the book of sages, they are greedy for beauty, and they rush to Beijing to rìrì sheng song, and there are groups of concubines. ”

Sun Zhiqi's face suddenly changed, his eyes looked at Wang Qiaonian coldly, and he was about to say something when he opened his mouth.

"This brother, the younger brother advises you, the emperor is now wise and martial, and the saint is unparalleled. Since his accession to the throne, he has been close to the people and diligent in government, inspecting officials and purging officialdom. If you don't have a heart that worries about the country and the people, I advise you not to go in, officialdom is likely to be your guillotine! Saying that, a cold light flashed in Wang Qiaonian's eyes, and he actually carried a bit of solemnity.

Lu Xiangsheng, who was standing on the side, suddenly frowned, it seems that this young man is not simple! may also be a family history, but he doesn't know how to martial arts when he looks like him, and he doesn't know what his family does.

Stretching out his hand and pointing at a few people, Sun Zhiqi's face suddenly became hideous, he flicked his sleeves fiercely, and said loudly: "Shanggao Shui Chang, let's see!" After saying that, he strode down, and suddenly there was a boo from upstairs.

The turmoil came and went quickly, and soon the storyteller continued to say that the tributes guessed each other, some of them were brilliant and would definitely win the champion, and some said that the other person was the Huiyuan who would try, and Lian Jie might get the champion with a good surname.

The number of tributes who passed the examination is basically the same as that of the top three jinshi, and it is no problem for the tributes to get the jinshi, the key is the ranking.

A Jinshi and the first, the first three names of Dingjia, that is, the champion, the eye, the flower, directly awarded the Hanlin editor, after the Yingzong Dynasty the practice of "non-Hanlin does not enter the cabinet", awarded the Hanlin editor, the future to do the cabinet scholar may be a big surname, it is half a foot into the cabinet.

The second class Jinshi was born, selected young and talented people to enter the Hanlin Academy, as "Shu Jishi", three years after the assessment, called the "scattered museum", the excellent results of the Hanlin editorial, called "staying", and the same as the Sanding A has the qualifications to enter the cabinet in the future, but the time is three more years. The other Shu Jishi, either to the six departments to be the director, the Imperial Court to do the imperial history, or to the local magistrate, is much worse than the one who stays in the museum.

The top three are born with Jinshi, which is another layer of difference, except for a few outstanding people, basically they can't be Shu Jishi, they can only be pedestrians, Taichang, government officials, governors, county officials and other officials.

When Sun Chengzong, the first auxiliary emperor of the dynasty, was the second in the first class, that is, the list eye, and he did the Hanlin editing for ten years. Now he is the first person in the Ming Dynasty, and no one can beat him.

Seeing the sages and thinkers, there are many tributes here, who doesn't want to become the second Sun Chengzong of the Ming Dynasty, and also do the position of the first assistant? In the future, he will become the first auxiliary emperor, not only to be able to leave his name in history, but also to be able to tilt the power of the government and the opposition.

It's just that at this moment, they don't know their ranking, and the examiner team composed of cabinet scholars, scholars and scholars of the Ministry of Rites and other court officials will select the top three rankings, and then the examiners will read their examination papers to the emperor, and the emperor of the apocalypse will personally select the protégés of the Son of Heaven. If the Emperor of the Apocalypse is not satisfied, he can send the scroll back and re-select it.

Although everyone has recovered to the way they were just now, they are all talking about each other's affairs, but there are still many people looking at Lu Xiangsheng's table. After all, this place has just come out of the limelight, and some good believers are even beginning to find out the identities of several people.

However, Lu Xiangsheng and the others obviously didn't care about this, and after introducing each other, they sat down to chat.

"Brother Lu, I don't know if I should ask if my little brother has a sentence?" Looking at Lu Xiangsheng, Wang Qiaonian said with a little embarrassment on his face, and his tone was a little worried.

"Brother Wang is polite, if you have anything to say, it doesn't hurt to say it!" Lu Xiangsheng was also very curious about this person, and he also felt a little close in his heart, so he couldn't help but ask in a deep voice.

Wang Qiaonian pondered for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Lu's family has a family history, I don't know if there will be any military affairs in the future?" When the head of the court, Lord Sun is known for his military affairs, if Brother Lu has this mind, he can come to study after the palace examination! ”

Listening to Wang Qiaonian's words, Lu Xiangsheng was slightly stunned, he naturally wanted to do something well, and it was naturally best to be able to go to the border town. Regarding Wang Qiaonian's statement, Lu Xiangsheng is also tempted, and being able to worship under Sun Chengzong's door is naturally something that he can't ask for.

However, Lu Xiangsheng knew in his heart that Sun Chengzong was the teacher of Emperor Taichang and Emperor Tianqi, and no one wanted to worship under his disciples. But that's not easy, he shook his head with a wry smile, and Lu Xiangsheng said helplessly in his tone: "Let's talk about this matter later!" Now we're waiting for news! ”

Looking at Lu Xiangsheng's lonely face, Wang Qiaonian was also a little embarrassed, smiled embarrassedly, and said apologetically in his tone: "Brother Lu, the little brother is abrupt for a while, I hope Brother Lu won't be surprised!" ”

"Brother Wang is polite!" Lu Xiangsheng also reported the fist, but the god was still a little gloomy.

Several people were thinking about their own thoughts, but no one was talking, and slowly fell into silence.

But soon a voice came from downstairs, the sound of a real gong, followed by the shout of a person: "Good news!" ”

Everyone was silent, and some people ran to the bottom of the stairs to see, and the eagerness in their hearts could be imagined.

It didn't take long for the person who reported the good news to run up, with a smile on his face, and shouted loudly: "Which one is Master Ni Yuanlu Ni of Shangyu, Zhejiang?" ”

Standing up tremblingly, Ni Yuanlu's beard couldn't stop trembling, and the corners of his mouth shook for a long time before he made a voice and said, "I am!" ”

The person who reported the good news hurriedly ran over, gave a salute to Ni Yuanlu, and said loudly: "Congratulations to Master Ni, the third place in the first class of high school, Tanhua!" ”
