Chapter 158: A Strange Favor
After waiting for a while, Lin Haobo's little guy also rushed up. "Uncle, you won the thirty-first place in the second class."
"Not bad, not bad!" And they all praised.
The rest of the lifters were even more apprehensive, looking down eagerly.
After a long time, I saw someone running towards this side again, "Young Master, you have been hit, you have been hit!" ”。
After the second list was posted for a long time, the rest of the people also came back one after another, but they were all silent, thinking that they had fallen off the list.
There are 200 on the third list, 100 on the second list, and 20 on the top list, all of which were posted, and some people cried and some laughed below.
Looking at the dismal things of others, Lu Chengtai glanced at Lin Haobo, and then got up and said goodbye.
Everyone replied weakly. I know that from today onwards, everyone will begin to widen the gap.
Under this fiery atmosphere, Emperor Longchang's fifty-fourth birthday arrived.
The whole palace is lit up. In the early morning, the crown prince Zheng Hong handed over a newspaper full of ink fragrance, and said loudly: "All ministries and provinces, as well as overseas states, congratulate my father on his birthday." I wish my father and the emperor eternal longevity. ”。
The ministers all stood up in the hall and congratulated: "I wish Your Majesty eternal succession and longevity!" ”。
"Hahahaha," Emperor Longchang said with a smile: "Forget about longevity, I will be satisfied if I can live to eighty!" He opened today's newspaper and read it with relish.
"Good, good!" He looked and nodded. In addition to the congratulatory watches of officials at all levels, there are also the opinions of the people in the city about His Majesty.
The long resume also made him happy to watch. It said that in the past 20 years of his reign, he has been politically harmonious, the country is rich and the people are strong, and he has also defeated the Northern Desert, which can be similar to Taizu Taizong.
Emperor Longchang was very happy to see it.
"Good, good, good. It's just that there are too many beautiful words, where do I dare to compare with Taizu and Taizong! ”。
The crown prince Zheng Hong was an honest man and did not follow up immediately. Shoufu immediately said: "Your Majesty is diligent in government and loves the people, and he expelled the Northern Desert, saying that Gongmai Taizu Taizong is not a lie!" ”。
Emperor Longchang burst out laughing again.
The prince hurriedly said a few words of congratulations, and then returned to the court.
After talking about state affairs, Emperor Longchang said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, enter the evening palace to set up a banquet, and then you can not get drunk and not return!" ”。
"Yes!".
Three days later, it will be the temple examination. Originally, this palace test was just to select the champion Bangyan and others. Generally speaking, only the top 20 members are eligible for this. Like Lin Haobo and Lu Chengtai, who are not ranked, their hearts are much calmer.
The test questions personally drafted by Emperor Longchang are the strategies for the Northern Desert.
This is not difficult for Lin Haobo. He once came to the surrendered city in person, and he can be regarded as having met with the people of the Northern Desert.
Some of Lu Yishuang's concepts, he also felt very reasonable when he heard them. After meeting Lu Chengtai, I also used these to talk to him.
This time, I happened to encounter such a strategy, so I couldn't help but write this argument in.
When Scholar Li took the scroll they had already selected and showed it to Emperor Longchang. Emperor Longchang flipped over, "What about the back?" ”。
Scholar Li was taken aback, so he brought the top 100 test papers.
Emperor Longchang still looked at it, and said, "Take another twenty sheets!" ”。
Although Scholar Li was puzzled, he still obeyed.
Emperor Longchang looked at it again, and then said with a smile: "I just want to see more!" You see, that's an interesting statement! He shook the scroll in his hand.
Scholar Li glanced at it and was shocked. "This is the volume of the son of Lu Shilang's family, it's very ordinary!" He muttered to himself.
Emperor Longchang put this aside first, flipped through it again, and saw Lin Haobo's scroll.
"That's not bad!" He praised.
Also placed on the right hand side. Only then did I pick up the previous volume and start from scratch.
"Okay!".
"Almost!".
"Bullshit!" He muttered as he watched.
Finally, I took out three portions and compared them there. Originally, he wanted Lu Chengtai to be the first, but Lin Haobo's writing was obviously better than his.
Besides, the aura of the champion is too big and too conspicuous. In fact, it's not as good as other rankings.
Emperor Longchang had made up his mind, so he circled Lin Haobo first, and the other two put second. Lu Chengtai is placed in the fourth place, which is the first in the second class.
When Scholar Li came to pick up the papers, he also read the red criticism of Emperor Longchang. Although he didn't think it was appropriate, he didn't advise him.
It's just a ranking order, which is determined according to the emperor's wishes.
It's just that Lin Haobo and Lu Chengtai are both children of official families, and it's not good that their rankings are set high.
He mentioned it vaguely. Emperor Longchang glanced at him, "I can't even make this proposition?" ”。
Mr. Li hurriedly confessed his guilt and retreated.
After the list, Lin Haobo and Lu Chengtai were both surprised.
Lu Yishuang smiled and said, "Oh, that's good! I thought it was a fellow jinshi! I didn't expect to be able to mix up Lu Dangdang! ”。
Lu Chengtai himself was not so happy. "I'm afraid there's something else hidden here! I know my own level, how can I not get to this point! ”。
Lu Shilang said in a deep voice: "You are self-aware!" Your ranking is not high, if it weren't for the emperor's liking of your strategy, it would be the second class tail. Hmph, it's just these things, and it's just picking up people's teeth. What General Zhou told me is much more detailed than yours. ”。
Lu Chengtai said unconvinced: "Didn't General Zhou also listen to his sister!" ”。
Lu Shilang said angrily: "Your sister has thought of a woman, and you are embarrassed to say it." If she can take the exam, then what else is there to do with you? ”。
Lu Yishuang said in her heart: I have taken the test for half my life in my last life, and I am finally relieved now, but I don't need to do it again. said with a smile: "Anyone can talk on paper, you have to really be able to implement it!" Going back, I'm going to use the Surrendered City as the first pilot to operate the wool and wool business. ”。
"Are you still going to the border city?" Lu Shilang said angrily: "Wasn't it dangerous enough last time? ”。
"What's going on?" Lu Chengtai looked solemn at them and hurriedly asked.
Lu Yishuang's attack was hidden from him, for fear that he would be distracted by the exam.
Now that the dust has settled, there is no need to hide it from him, so I told him about it.
Lu Chengtai was angry and frightened, grabbed Han Xiuqi's neck, gritted his teeth and said, "That's how you protect my sister?" ”。
Han Xiuqi's face was full of shame and sighed.
Wu shouted, "What are you doing, third child?" Let go! ”。
Lu Chengtai snorted coldly and threw away his hand. "I knew this man was unreliable! If he knew this, he should have let his sister reconcile with him! ”。
Lu Shilang's face darkened, and he said angrily: "Shut up!" ”。
Turning his head to Lu Yishuang, he said, "You are a woman, and now you are the county lord." The income from just giving the field and the flowers is enough for you to use for a lifetime. Why do you keep thinking about running outside? Run, run, you don't want to go to the south of the Yangtze River, where the wind and water are soft, but you want to go to the bitter cold place outside the Saiwai? ”。
Lu Yishuang sighed and said: "It's because you have enough to eat and drink in your life that you have to do something!" ”。
