The three contemporary heads of the Cui, Wang, and Zheng families returned home immediately after they dispersed, and they had just learned the results of the imperial examination in the Taiji Palace, and they also knew some news that Wang Yao and Zheng Hao did not know.

Just when Wang Yao and Zheng Hao were furious, Wang Zhao and Zheng Zheng each went home, and the test papers of the top three people were passed on by hundreds of officials one by one, Li Bai's ranking of the first and second was well deserved, in addition to the poor writing of Wen Ce, the poems and the strategy of Tubo were written very well, especially the song Guan Shanyue, which immediately conquered the Minister of State Yao Chong and a cadre of Wenchen, and even Li Longji frequently applauded, which made the ministers with the five surnames unable to even say their opposing opinions, and they also read Li Bai's test papers, It can be seen that Li Bai does have real materials.

And Li Bai himself was wandering aimlessly on the street at this time, and he still didn't find the jade slave, and he didn't care about the result of the imperial examination.

"Have you heard, the top three in this imperial examination have come out." A passer-by said.

"What's there to see about this, it's not that the five surnames and seven wangs have taken the top three." The other waved his hand.

"Who said that, I heard that one of the top three in this imperial examination is not a person with five surnames, but a person from Shuzhou, whose name is also quite strange, called Li ...... What happened to Lee? Plum...... Oh yes, the one called Li Bai is not those children of the family. The passerby spoke again.

Yin Que, who passed by the two of them, was stunned for a moment, Li Bai? Isn't that yourself? He was very sure that it was him, because who else could the person named Li Bai have besides him? I don't know what my parents thought about giving themselves such a name, Li Bai Li Bai, what is white.

Thinking about it, I actually took the first class and second place in the exam, which is simply incredible, the poetry is not left aside for the time being, but Wen Ce himself is written casually, and the format and text are not written in accordance with the fixed process at all, and the strategy of Tubo is not particularly good, but it is written to use the terrain of Qinghai Road to train troops and then counterattack Tubo when the time is ripe, and there is no specific strategy, so you can get a second? Yin Que couldn't believe it, and he even doubted that the candidates in this class were all pigs.

Of course, the candidates of this session are not pigs, but aside from the format and grammar of the text, the water control policy written by Yin Que is really in line with the strategy proposed by the Ministry of Industry at that time, but it is not as detailed as the Ministry of Industry, and the strategic deployment of Tubo is just in line with the strategy agreed by the Ministry of War, Yao Chong, Yao Xiang and Li Longji. After all, the prime minister of a country is the head of the world's officials, and the power in his hands is still not to be underestimated, this time the Wang family and the Zheng family are not planted, the Wang family is okay, the Zheng family Zheng Hao is about to kill, and the first and third are now suddenly becoming the second class, although it is the first place, but there is a big gap between the first and the second class.

Yin Que dragged his tired body back to the inn, and the innkeeper knew that the tired young man in front of him was the second place in the first class of the imperial examination, so he took him very kindly, and he was full of diligence with a shout of Li Gongzi.

The jade slave still didn't find it, and Yin Que didn't want to talk to the shopkeeper, so he casually responded and went upstairs.

Back in the room, Yin Que took out the dagger that was paired with the jade slave and held it tightly in his hand.

At the same time, in the Daming Palace.

"Ruyi, what day is it today?" A wonderful voice sounded in the deep palace.

"Back to the master, it's sixteen today." The little palace maid replied without thinking about it.

"Sixteen ......" voice seemed a little melancholy, a little desolate.

"Is the list of the imperial examination down this time?" The voice rang out this time, but this time it was noticeably much more deserted.

"Back to the master, I've come down."

"Well, are the three people in Yijia all children of the family?"

"No, the first and third places in the first class are Cui Hao of the Cui family and Wang Yao of the Wang family respectively, and the second place is a talented man from Shuzhou."

Jingle ~~!

As soon as Ruyi's words fell, a series of crisp bells came from the deep palace.

"Come on...... From Shuzhou? The voice was slightly agitated.

"Yes, I heard that he is the most famous talent in Shuzhou City, and it seems that his name is Li Bai."

Boom~Click~!

This time, the sound was not the sound of bells, but the sound of something falling to the ground and shattering.

"Got it, you go down first." After a long while, the voice came again, this time it was so excited that even Ruyi could hear it, and there was a little crying mixed with it.

As the palace maid of the master, there are some things that are clear in her heart, and she doesn't need to let others know, just like this matter is Ruyi and intends to rot him in the stomach until this matter is forgotten.

In the deep palace, the jade fragments scattered all over the place, from some relatively large fragments, it can be vaguely seen that it is a jade Ruyi, about a foot long, the jade is clear and warm, and it is a good jade at a glance.

A beautiful woman in palace clothes is half-lying on the Hu bed, her body is well-proportioned and slender, her skin is better than snow, but her face is covered with tears like pearls, which looks extremely distressing, and next to her is a dagger inlaid with sapphires, the dagger is streamlined and slightly curved, and there is no other decoration except for a gem.

The woman picked up the dagger and held it in her hand like a treasure, and the previous Ruyi looked like garbage compared to the current dagger.

The woman couldn't hold back her tears anymore.

"Brother Qinglian...... Sorry ......"

The day of the palace examination has arrived, and according to the custom, the three students of the first class will be summoned by the Son of Heaven in the Taiji Hall.

The palace examination began in the Luocheng Hall of Ziwei Palace, which was created by Emperor Wu in Luoyang, the eastern capital, and the palace examination was the highest stage in the imperial examination, and the first name of the palace examination was the champion, followed by the list of eyes and Tanhua.

Yin Que, Cui Zheng and Wang Yao were led by a little father-in-law to the Taiji Hall to meet the Son of Heaven and all the ministers.

The three of them are all dressed in moon-white student robes at this time, but the bearing of the three is completely different, Cui Zheng has an elegant scholarly atmosphere, and at first glance he is a person who reads poetry and books, although Wang Yao's temperament is slightly inferior, but he is taller than Cui Zhengchang, and the whole person has a kind of pine-like noble temperament.

And Yin Que is particularly prominent among the three, perhaps it is the relationship between the perennial sword practice, the talented him has a heroic chivalrous spirit, this faint chivalrous spirit makes his temperament extremely elegant, a feeling of fearlessness with a sword in his hand arises spontaneously, and the scholarly spirit is mixed with uninhibited chivalry, which is a temperament that all students have never had, so along the way, whether it is a palace maid or a soldier guarding the city, all of them are sideways.

Cui Zheng only smiled slightly when he saw this, and even looked at Yin Que with interest, although he is the son of the Cui family, he has been very intimate with his aunt Cui since he was a child, and it can be said that he was brought up by the Cui family, so there is no stinky problem with the children of the family, Cui Zheng can be said to be a humble gentleman.

But Wang Yao was angry in his heart, Yin Que had robbed him of the second place, and now he had lost in temperament, and he had already put Yin Que in the enemy circle in his heart.

The palace was so big that they walked for a quarter of an hour to reach the gate of the Taiji Palace, and the little father-in-law asked the three of them to wait outside for His Majesty's summons, and then left. ……
