Yu Dandan shook his head indifferently: "It is very rare for him to have achieved today's achievements in learning at such a young age." How dare I expect him to win the top prize? ”

Fu Wenjing thought for a while and said, "I can't tell! In recent years, the imperial court has retreated many elderly and important ministers. The emperor has also been promoting some young and promising officials in recent years. Maybe your younger brother Yu Zhaoxian is the one who takes the lead! ”

"I've lent you good words! In short, after Xian'er finishes this palace, he can also have an official to do. The emperor has indeed promoted some young officials in recent years, but Xian'er is too young to be assigned to any important positions. "Yu Dandan is a mixed blessing.

"It's not as bad as you think! I always felt that your brother was not a thing of the pool! Fu Wenjing comforted Yu Dandan......

However, at the end of the temple time, there was a problem on Yu Zhaoxian's side. All the candidates have handed in their papers and are ready to leave, but Yu Zhaoxian is still working hard. Even though the invigilator urged him several times, Yu Zhaoxian still begged the invigilator to give him more time, saying that he would answer the questions carefully.

The invigilator has also studied hard for ten years, and he is also very moved to see this young man with perseverance in his eyes. So he opened the door for him and did not urge him again. just told Long Xingche, who was about to leave the palace test site, about to tell this matter.

When Long Xingche heard the invigilator tell him that someone was delaying the submission of the paper, he frowned: "What is the name of the candidate who delayed the submission of the paper?" ”

The invigilator Gong arched his hand and replied respectfully: "If you go back to the emperor, this candidate's name is Yu Zhaoxian, and Weichen sees that he is strong-willed, and he really can't bear to urge him." Please also ask the emperor to give him some more time, Weichen feels that he is so cautious, and the article he writes must be outstanding! ”

When Long Xingche heard the invigilator say that it was Zhao Xian's name, his brows furrowed, and he couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth. So, is that Yu Zhaoxian who Fu Wenjing has been muttering to him for the past few days?

"Since you intercede for him, then I will open up the net today, but after he finishes the exam papers, I will see it for myself!" After Long Xingche finished speaking, he left with his hands behind his back!

"Emperor Xie!"

After the invigilator sent Long Xingche away, he turned his head to look at Yu Zhaoxian, who was still writing hard there, with a face full of appreciation!

After the end of the palace examination, there will be two days of marking time, and the examination papers of the candidates participating in the palace examination, except for Yu Zhaoxian, who the examiners have determined that he can enter the top ten, is still with Long Xingche, and the examination papers of the rest of the candidates have all been sealed in the final file!

Chaohui Hall

Tomorrow is the day of the release of the emperor's list, and the test results of the palace examination are divided into the top three, and Long Xingche must determine the top three candidates for the first class today.

After reading Guo Zhaoxian's exam papers, he greatly appreciated his literary brilliance and ambition. deliberately brought Yu Zhaoxian's exam papers with him, and then didn't say anything, just asked the ministers of civil and military affairs to take a closer look at Zhaoxian's exam papers.

Long Xingche waited until everyone had finished reading it before asking, "I wonder what you Aiqing thinks of this candidate's opinion?" ”

Fu Wang Ye said: "This candidate is extraordinary, worried about the country and the people, and his sincerity to the country is overflowing. And he has his own unique views on the summary of local government affairs in Chenguo to the capital, as well as the transmission of instructions from the capital to the locality! The minister agrees with his suggestion very much! ”

After Lord Fu finished speaking. Fu Wenxi and Fu Wensheng, as well as several important ministers, were all listed.

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister also seconded it!"

At this time, a different voice came out from among the ministers, that is, Ying Concubine's father, Yin Song Laizhou of Shuntian Mansion!

"Talking so much about local and capital affairs, I don't know how old this candidate is?" Song Laizhou had a hunch that Long Xingche had already planned to appoint this candidate as the champion. But what this candidate is talking about is the position he is in now, and he is worried that he will be "replaced"!

"This candidate ...... this year Eighteen years old! Long Xingche deliberately paused and looked at the shocked reactions of the civil and military ministers!

"If the emperor wants to appoint this candidate as the champion, please ask the emperor to take back his fate. He's so young, it's definitely hard for him to take on a big job! Song Laizhou thought he had found a reason for Long Xingche not to "replace" him!

Long Xingche stood up, put his hands behind his back and said loudly: "I was eighteen years old when I first ascended the throne, so I was still able to govern the country? Ambition is not old, I think he is a rare talent! Moreover, he is the champion I have handpicked this year! ”

"The Emperor Shengming!"

After hearing the age of the owner of the exam paper, Prince Fu and the others hesitated slightly, but seeing that Long Xingche insisted, they had no choice but to second. Only Song Laizhou wiped the cold sweat on his head!

The next day is the day of the royal list, and the candidates and their families who are concerned about the candidates' future career have come to see the royal list early!

Yu Zhaoxian's mother and son are already early, but there are people who are older than them, and the wall of the imperial list has been surrounded by three layers of water inside!

"I'm in! I'm in! ”

"Oops, congratulations, congratulations!"

"You've finally passed the exam this time!"

"I took the test three times, it's not easy!"

There was a thirty-year-old candidate who had won the Jinshi, and after seeing his name on the list, he shouted excitedly. Then the candidates who went to Beijing with him to take the exam congratulated one after another!

Yu Zhaoxian heard that others had taken the test three times before he passed the test, and then he became nervous again. Although he has been full of confidence after answering the exam, to this day, he doesn't know what the result is!

Zhang saw Yu Zhaoxian's worries, and then comforted: "Child, it's okay. Haven't you heard? The Jinshi in the exam just now has been tested three times, and we are only taking the test for the first time, so don't be so nervous! ”

"Good...... Yes, Mother! Although Yu Zhaoxian's mouth hardened, his eyes were already anxiously looking at the emperor's list!

Li Xiuwen and Li Guangyi were also helping to watch it, but because there were already many candidates and family members watching it in front of them before they came, they could only watch it from the side at the end of the list!

After the palace examination, the specifications of the posting of the imperial list are divided into three grades. The first and third places, the first champion, the second list, the third Tanhua, the Jinshi and the first; A number of second-class scholars, born as Jinshi; A number of the top three are given the same Jinshi background. After the ceremony is over, the imperial list will be pasted for three days.

During the palace examination, there were a lot of candidates, and there were many who won the list of Jinshi. Li Xiuwen squeezed from the end to the top two list in front, but he still couldn't see Yu Zhaoxian's name!

Although there are not too many candidates, there are many people in the first ranks. Those are all businessmen who want to get the champion home on the day of the release of the list and marry their daughter.

They all think that if their daughter marries a champion, it is a supreme honor!

Li Guangyi quietly glanced at Yu Zhaoxian, who didn't find his name in the top two list, who looked depressed, and then quietly came to Li Xiuwen's side and said softly: "Big brother, there is no name of Yu Gongzi in the second class, and there are too many businessmen around the first class and we can't get by!" ”
