Speaking of which, Tiankuo was in the middle, but he waited and waited, and no one came back for a long time, and it took a long time to change the second group of people.

Those people didn't come back before, probably because they were afraid that they would leak the topic, and with so many people today, there may be duplicate topics.

If you want to ask anything, it all depends on the emperor's mood, but there is still this range, so it is best not to meet those who have taken the test and those who have not.

Tiankuo was in the same group as the prince just now, it was already after noon, several eunuchs brought them food, everyone ate together, and after waiting for a while, it was Tiankuo's turn to play.

It still takes a while to start passing, and the prince began to provoke again, "Wait and see, I must beat you up today, you are unlucky to meet me, and I don't know where to come, how many books have you read?" It's all up to my luck to get to this point today, and when I get to the top of the hall, I have to show my original form, I haven't read a few books, what can you answer? The emperor doesn't have so much leisure to spend with you, and he still wears a veil, which is disrespectful. ”

Tiankuo ignored him, although he didn't know how knowledgeable this person was, but he knew by looking at the way he spoke that he was not a talented person, if he couldn't even compare to such a person, then the books he had read over the years were really in vain.

What's the big deal about winning or losing? Anyway, I'm going to have a competition in a while, so I'm too lazy to bother talking at this time.

So he didn't pay attention to the man at all, no matter how ugly he spoke, just as he didn't hear it, he was so angry that the prince beat his chest.

Soon it was their turn, and the leading eunuch led them to a place, and they could only keep their heads down and not look to the side the whole time, which was the rule that had been explained before.

If you don't understand things and look to the side, maybe you won't be able to go to the main hall to participate in the palace exam, so everyone still pays attention to this point, and they have all come to this point, so you can't lose this opportunity because of such a trivial matter, right?

Tiankuo is the same, he has been doing it according to the rules.

This palace is really big, his neck is almost sore, and he hasn't walked to the place yet, anyway, he only knows how to follow the people in front of him, and he doesn't know where he is.

After going up the long steps, I finally arrived at the place, there was no movement around, Tiankuo thought that there was no one, when I walked into the house from the side, I saw many feet on the side, and I knew that there were many people on the hall, but there was no movement at all, such an atmosphere made people feel very uneasy all of a sudden.

When they arrived at the place where they were supposed to stand, the eunuch who led them the way taught them to salute, and then the four of them got up at the same time, bowing their heads slightly, not daring to look around.

Now there is no one order, anyway, whoever the emperor likes will let him answer, these four people will be asked one by one, but the first one who is selected proves to be outstanding.

There are so many ministers here, all of them are human spirits, at this time, you have to look at each other carefully, those who can come up to the palace to meet the emperor must have official positions, if you want to stand tall in the court, how can you be without people.

Now that several princes are competing for the throne so strongly, most of these ministers are on the side, even if some don't choose either, they have to choose someone to protect themselves.

These people may have their own right-hand men, and they all have to watch carefully.

Which one did the emperor order first today, these ministers don't use pen and paper, they can remember it firmly in their hearts, what to do when they go back, they have to weigh it carefully, don't look at this is just a palace test, in fact, it involves a lot.

Recently, Song Yao was also present, and as soon as Tiankuo came up, he saw it, Tiankuo was veiled, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly, but because he knew about it, he noticed him at a glance.

The emperor sat above, and there was also a screen in front of him, so that people outside could not see inside, and the emperor did not speak immediately, and only after a while did he click on one of them to answer.

It's not Tiankuo, Song Yao breathed a sigh of relief, although he promised Jiang that he would not interfere with Tiankuo's exam, but he didn't want Tiankuo's exam to be too good.

Tiankuo looks like this, and a discerning person can see at a glance that if he just gets a final rank and becomes a petty official in a remote area for the rest of his life, he will not even have a chance to report on his work in Beijing. Then there will not be many people who can see him in this life, and he won't cause too much trouble.

If you get a good reputation, even if you have a low starting point, you will go outside, but one day you will bring trouble out.

The first person behaved decently, not outstanding, he could see that he was a little nervous, and he answered while wiping his sweat, this is not enough, the emperor is the most unbearable person who is not calm in this situation.

These ministers fought back and forth, and it was not easy to have such an official position today, how could they not see what the emperor was? Even if you can't see his expression and only listen to the voice, you know that he is not interested in the first person, and this person is probably the famous person who was born in the same jinshi.

Of course, such a person will not be of much use, no one will think about winning him over, if his family has nothing to do with it, it is estimated that he will be crawling at the bottom in this life, mixing with the lowest fame, and then mixing with the lowest official position.

The second person who was pointed out was the prince Wang, when he lowered his head and was called, his arm shook a little, Tiankuo was next to him, he saw it really clearly, and he couldn't help laughing in his heart, but he was just a paper tiger, bullying the soft and afraid of the hard.

To Tiankuo's surprise, he answered the question asked by the emperor quite well, although he was a little stumbling, but his insights were very good, and it is estimated that the emperor was very satisfied with his answer.

It seems that he really can't judge people by their appearance, just now he thought that this person was a straw bag, but he didn't expect that he was narrow-minded and short-sighted.

The prince surnamed Wang was very proud after answering, and glanced at the people on the side with contempt, of course, he didn't dare to look blatantly, after all, this is still in the palace hall, the emperor is in front of him, if he is seen, he will be finished.

Tiankuo didn't notice his eyes, he was a little nervous, and he didn't know who would be next?

The emperor thought for a while and called the third person, it was not Tiankuo, Song Yao breathed a long sigh of relief and left Tiankuo to the end, which meant that the emperor was a little dissatisfied with his dress.

Although there is such a precedent, and the emperor loves talents very much, and he is unwilling to let the students in the world not be able to enter the palace to take the exam for these reasons, but when it comes to it, he will definitely be rejected in his heart, and the loss of honor in front of the palace is not a trivial matter.

In this way, he saved the sky to the end, which is easy to explain.
