He opened his mouth, as if to say something, but swallowed it back. only said: "I don't know how well Miss Wei's article is written, and whether it can match her calligraphy." ”

Xiao Qi knew that Gonggong Xie was suggesting that he review the article first. Then he nodded, picked up the test paper and looked at it.

Gonggong Xie took a few steps back slightly, and quietly returned to the position where he had been standing.

After a while, he saw Xiao Qi slap the table again: "Good article, good article." ”

After the shooting, Xiao Yu dipped his pen in Zhu Mo and began to mark the words on the test paper. Looking at the speed and strength of his writing, Gonggong Xie knew that the emperor was very emotional at this time, and he wrote almost hundreds of words in his pen, so he stopped and breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing this scene, Gonggong Xie couldn't help but sigh lightly.

It took Xiao Qi half an hour to review these test papers.

Some articles are new, and the suggestions given are refreshing and profound, and he will savor them carefully and consider the meaning of the text; Although some articles are very well written and written in a breathing manner, there is nothing new about them. This kind of article Xiao Qi put down at a glance.

After reading it, he took a sip of tea, put down the teacup and exhaled for a long time, and said with a wry smile: "The time for embarrassment has come." According to my preferences, whether it is articles or calligraphy, Zhao Zhiwei is naturally the best, and she deserves this champion, better than all other tributes. But if I named her as the champion, I don't know how many people would be dissatisfied. It's not dissatisfied, and I'm not an emperor who is afraid of his subordinates' dissatisfaction. Just ......"

He shook his head, full of sighs: "If I order her to be the champion, she will have to be an official, and she must continue to do this official well, and she can't give up halfway." Otherwise, he will be criticized by the scholars. ”

He raised his eyes and looked at Gonggong Xie: "Zhao Zhiwei, it's time to talk about marriage, right?" ”

"Yes." Gong Xie said fairly, "Miss Zhiwei will be sixteen years old in a few months, which is the age to talk about marriage. ”

Xiao Qi asked curiously, "Is she married?" ”

Because Zhao Zhiwei is outstanding in learning, the emperor pays great attention to her, so Gonggong Xie has also done his homework on this.

He shook his head and said, "No." Many people in Beijing came to propose marriage, but Suiping Bofu refused. ”

Xiao Qi was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "Zhao Zhiwei is so amazingly talented, there are really few men in the world who can match her." And such a woman, let her be confined to the back house to have children, which is a loss for our Dajin. Her family affairs really can't be allowed casually. ”

Gonggong Xie suddenly stepped forward and knelt down to make a big salute to Xiao Qi: "Before the palace test, Mr. Deadwood entered the palace once, and when he left, the old slave went to see him off, and his old man asked the old slave to bring a few words to the emperor." His old man specially told the old slave that he must take the test in the palace, and the emperor said before he finished reading the test papers and wanted to appoint a first-class jinshi. ”

"Oh?" Xiao Qi sat up straight, "What words?" You said. ”

Mr. Deadwood said that the biggest wish of the Zhiwei girl in this life is to go to other places to be an official, see the great mountains and rivers of the Great Jin Dynasty, understand and experience the people's livelihood and life, and do something for the little people below. Mr. Deadwood said that if Miss Zhiwei's article can't get into the eyes of the emperor and has no chance to be a first-class jinshi, there is no need to say this to the emperor. ”

Xiao Qi looked stunned for a moment.

After a long time, he said, "You are flat." ”

He looked down at Zhao Ruxi's test paper at the top, and somehow, he suddenly felt a little sour in his nose. For Zhao Zhiwei's ambition, but also for his cousin and sister's thoughts.

Uncle cousin said this, although there was a reason why Zhao Zhiwei wanted to release and realize his ambitions, but he didn't want to embarrass him, so he used this as an excuse to thank his father-in-law for saying this, right?

He looked at the test paper in silence for a long time, and then pulled out the test paper below to look at it.

Seeing this, Gonggong Xie's lips squirmed, but he finally lowered his head and did not speak again.

……

After taking the palace exam, Zhao Ruxi was relaxed. She wanted to sleep in, but she woke up on time at six o'clock.

In these days, without a mobile phone or computer, it is difficult to be lazy and decadent. Zhao Ruxi had to get up, first went to the yard to practice boxing twice, took a bath, ate breakfast and practiced a few words, and earned two or three hundred points, which only then did it reach nine o'clock.

She changed her clothes, led Qingfeng and Dianjiang out of the door, and as soon as she walked to the door of the hanging flowers, she met the porter who came in to deliver the post.

"Girl, early this morning, more than a dozen people sent worship posts and invitation posts, and they said that the masters were all tributes and participated in the palace examination with the girl." The porter said, handing the post to Dianjiang.

If it was all invitation posts, Zhao Ruxi directly told them to put it first, and then let Qingfeng deal with it after they came back.

But if you have a prayer post, you can't do that.

She frowned, sat down under the porch, took the posts and flipped through them one by one, and found that there were more than a dozen invitation posts, all of which invited her to participate in the literary meeting. And this cultural meeting, more than one place, the time also ranges from the day after tomorrow to the next few days.

There are two prayer posts, one is from Huiyuan Duan Chen, and the other is from a tribute named Lu Shan. The time when Lu Shan came to visit was the day after tomorrow, after the results of the palace examination came out; And the time when Duan Chen came to visit was this afternoon.

The list of the entrance examination is basically the list of the last Jinshi admission, and only some fine-tuning will be made after the palace examination. So Zhao Ruxi once asked Xiaole to transcribe a list of admissions for the entrance examination to understand the situation of this class of Jinshi.

She remembered that this Gongshi from Lushan was ranked fifth, and he was also a contender for the first-class jinshi.

As for what this person looks like, she didn't pay attention to it at all during the palace exam yesterday. If it weren't for Duan Chen standing alone in front of her, and deliberately turning his head to look at her, she wouldn't have any impression of Duan Chen.

The porter did not get the girl's orders, and did not dare to go, but watched from the side.

At this time, seeing the girl looking at these two prayer posts, he explained: "This Duan Xianggong's worship post was voted by him personally, and his attitude is very modest and polite; The greeting post of Lu Xianggong was voted by his housekeeper, and he said that his master would come to the door in person to vote once in two days to determine whether the girl was willing to meet and whether he would bring his friends to the door. ”

Suiping Bofu is very worried about Zhao Ruxi's marriage matching, even if the porter is an old man in his fifties.

So he finally added: "The two sons, both seventeen or eighteen years old, are very handsome. Especially Duan Gongzi, he is not worse than Lord Wu of Dali Temple. ”

Wu Zong has been to Suiping Bofu several times, and the porter knows him.

Kang Shilin is estimated to be a face control, and the several disciples he received are not bad looking. Among them, Wu Zong is the most outstanding, and he is a beautiful man with a very temperament.
