In addition to Ji Ziqi, the champion of Dengke, the other two people are dragons and phoenixes, among which the list is Lu Zhongting, the son of Taixue Mansion, and Tanhua is Tang Shangwen, the third son of Guohou Mansion.

In addition to Ji Ziqi, Lu Zhongting and Tang Shangwen's family backgrounds are both famous nobles in Shangjing, Taixue Mansion and Guohou Mansion are both first-class university scholars in the Celestial Empire, and there are countless famous teachers in the family, and Tang Shangwen is also one of the top disciples of Prime Minister Qin Yuandao, even Si Nanping also said that he has outstanding literary talents, and Lu Zhongting also got Lu Gaohong's guidance before.

From this point of view, Ji Ziqi seems to have many differences in this - before the palace examination, the sons of each family were famous, and Ji Ziqi followed them all the way through five levels and six generals, but he was also an unknown person.

But who would have thought that such an unknown person could be at the top of the list in the end, and the Ji clan of Taiyuan County produced such a champion, which can be described as a glorious ancestor.

Now at the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, the queen mother and the eldest princess in the royal family feasted all the ministers, and there must be a champion among them.

Everyone is looking at what that champion looks like.

"A talent, it really lives up to its name!" There were several adults gathered together, looking at Ji Ziqi sitting next to the prime minister's seat, and couldn't help but be amazed.

"This year's palace examination was personally invigilated by the queen's mother, and Mr. Si is also in the team of marking papers, he has always been fair, this Ji Ziqi is probably a genius, and I haven't heard his name and surname in the past."

"I've heard of Taiyuan Ji's family."

"Oh? Master Li is well-informed, tell us about it? ”

"Taiyuan Ji has been a master in the past, don't you know?" Master Li looked at them with a surprised expression, but then he looked relieved, "Speaking of which, the Taiyuan Ji clan is all about the previous dynasty." ”

"So, the Taiyuan Ji clan is a remnant of the previous dynasty?" As he spoke, the person who said this looked Ji Ziqi up and down with strange eyes, as if Ji Ziqi was really a remnant of the previous dynasty.

"Hey! You can't talk like that! Master Li looked left and right, "Woe comes from the mouth, my lord!" Now they are the champions. Besides, the Taishi of the Taiyuan Ji clan was still more than 200 years ago, and it can't be said to be the remnants of the previous dynasty. ”

"Then since the Taiyuan Ji clan produced a master in the previous dynasty, why is the Ji clan defeated now? Don't say a few of us, even if it is the Manchu Dynasty, few people have heard of the name of Taiyuan Ji. ”

Lord Li shook his head and said, "Lord Lin's words are wrong. I heard that the Taiyuan Ji clan's Taishi retired by himself, and his defeat is completely unspeakable. Look at that Ji Ziqi, when he came to Beijing, he was a young man, and he didn't have the slightest style of being a poor family, I'm afraid I haven't heard of Taiyuan Ji before, all because they are low-key, and I think it's also a good education at home! ”

"Hahahahaha, no matter what, now that the dust has settled on the champion of the palace examination, it can be regarded as being able to select talents for the Celestial Empire."

"That's right, Xiaguan toasts you."

"Today's family banquet, regardless of dignity or inferiority, are all colleagues hahahaha."

A few adults also took advantage of the fact that they had nothing to do today, and it would be a while to relax at the banquet.

The queen hasn't come yet, and Her Royal Highness the princess is talking to General Liang Lin for some reason, so there is no one to manage the situation of such a banquet, and everyone is talking in a whisper.

Qi Wangshu is also rare to see Liang Lin once, so he naturally wants to catch up with the past.

The position of the princess was next to the queen's mother, and Liang Lian was also sitting under the phoenix seat, sitting opposite to Qin Yuandao.

Qi Wangshu smiled at Liang Lin and said, "Haven't you been very busy with military affairs recently?" ”

Liang Xiao looked at the people left and right, no one seemed to be looking over here, he whispered to Qi Wangshu and said, "Princess, now in front of everyone, it is better for you and me to contact less." ”

"Why?" Qi Wangshu looked at the courtiers and didn't think there was anything wrong, "Do you think it's a shame to have a relationship with me?" ”

Qi Wangshu was choked, Liang Lin was always so cautious, but their every move was undoubtedly revealed in the eyes of others, probably no one in the court didn't know that Princess Wangshu was fond of General Liang Lian, right?

But why does this Liang Liang deceive himself and pretend that everyone doesn't know?

It really made Qi Wangshu very distressed.

"What did the princess say about this?" Liang Lin said, "Even if you don't want to get involved, isn't this also involved?" ”

"You!" Qi Wangshu pretended to be annoyed and looked at Liang Lone.

Liang Xiao laughed twice, and then said: "You are a princess who has not left the cabinet, so don't let others have a chance to criticize, besides, there are many affairs in the court today." Liang Xiao reached out and touched Qi Wangshu's hair, "Even our little princess Wangshu has begun to deal with the affairs of the palace seriously." ”

After Liang Xiao finished speaking, he realized that he had just touched the princess's hair, but several adults had already seen such an intimate action.

Liang Lin only felt stiff behind him, and when he looked back again, the adults had ambiguous smiles on their faces.

Qin Yuandao, who was sitting opposite, naturally saw Liang Lian's movements, and couldn't help but smile: I think that this little couple is the same as Wei Shen and Qin Ruilan, they haven't seen each other for a long time.

Almost everyone knows about Qi Wangshu and Liang Lian, but because this is a matter of private teaching between the princess and the ministers, the big guys are embarrassed to say it openly, but if they are together, they will also be close to each other, which is not outrageous.

Liang Lone's face turned red as soon as he brushed it, and Qi Wangshu was also happy, and returned to his seat to look at the blushing Liang Lone and smiled secretly.

Now in such a situation, Liang Liang is the only person who can feel happy in Qi Wangshu.

At this time, Ji Ziqi, who was sitting next to the prime minister, saw this scene and also lowered his head and smiled.

I don't know why, whether it is Lu Zhongting or Tang Shangwen, there are many people around them who come to congratulate, and it is not uncommon for the two of them to be among the top three.

Lu Zhongting and Tang Shangwen are both sons of famous families, their family's education and the environment they live in should have been famous at a young age, as early as a very young age, they began to study, waiting for the palace exam, in front of the emperor to show their ambitions.

Because the two of them stood out among thousands of candidates and ranked in the top three, the patriarchs of the Lu Mansion and the Tang Mansion were very happy, which meant that they could be promoted to the rank of knight at this special time, and the Lu family and the Tang family would begin to be valued by the royal family again.

Regarding the question of the queen mother in the palace examination - "The Theory of Rewarding Loyalty, the Way of the Whole Army of the Country", they can answer it, and they can rank among the top three, and it is indeed a realm that is difficult for ordinary people to reach, so I think that at this special time, the queen mother will give the best arrangement.

Everyone knows this, and they know a little bit about the Lu family and the Tang family, so it is not unreasonable for them to come to congratulate.

But for Ji Ziqi, the champion Lang, everyone did not discuss, but they all did not talk to Ji Ziqi.

They are not familiar with Ji Ziqi, in other words, after Ji Ziqi was admitted to the top prize, this is the first time they have heard of his name, and now they are very unfamiliar when they see him.

Ji Ziqi sat alone and watched the singing and dancing, drinking silently, and the excitement around him seemed to have nothing to do with him.

Ji Ziqi didn't care about these things at all, he was a genius, he could have become famous at a young age, but it was just because he felt that it was too noisy, seeing that Lu Zhongting and Tang Shangwen were in the most lively place in the crowd, and countless people around him came forward to toast them, Ji Ziqi only felt pity for them.

Ji Ziqi is only thinking today, why hasn't the queen mother appeared yet?

When he was in Taiyuan County, Ji Ziqi heard about the queen's mother.

Taiyuan Ji clan is quite famous in the previous dynasty, has always been the place where the literati family is located, and there was also a prince in the previous dynasty, and there are countless prime ministers.

The affairs of the previous dynasty, the descendants can no longer know so much, but as the descendant of the Taiyuan Ji family, Ji Ziqi is completely able to know how important the Taiyuan Ji family was in the previous dynasty.

It's just that after the change of dynasty, the Taiyuan Ji family has been staying in Taiyuan and has never been out of the rivers and lakes.

Ji Ziqi had been taking the imperial examination for the first two years, and he wanted to have a good time, but this year he heard about what happened in the capital, and now the emperor is not there, and only the queen is in charge of the government.

The queen mother Liang Huanqing, Taiyuan Ji is often able to hear about it.

Taiyuan is on the border of the Celestial Empire, and in the past was often blessed by Liang Fengmian, as the Ji family of Taiyuan County, they are not a poor family, they are a famous family, they remember the kindness of General Liang.

Hearing that General Liang had died, they deeply regretted it, and now they heard that Liang Huanqing was in difficulty in managing politics in the court, so the elders of the Ji family asked Ji Ziqi to come to help.

Before this, Ji Ziqi had said that the queen mother had Si Nanping by her side, and there was probably no shortage of him.

However, the elders of the Ji family said that Si Nanping was unwilling to govern in the court, and only in the court could he be powerful and could help the queen.

So Ji Ziqi came.

After coming to Beijing, Ji Ziqi wanted to see what the queen mother looked like, and she must be solemn and majestic.

When the palace was tested that day, Ji Ziqi heard that the queen had arrived, so he looked up and wanted to take a look, but he couldn't see clearly through the screen.

Today's Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, I naturally have the honor to take a look at the queen's mother, and Ji Ziqi has been waiting.

Prime Minister Qin Yuandao, who was sitting on the side, saw Ji Ziqi sitting quietly, so he said to him intentionally or unintentionally: "I have read the article you wrote. ”

Ji Ziqi suddenly heard such a sentence, suddenly came back to his senses, and saw that it was Qin Cheng who was speaking to him, and hurriedly raised his hand and said: "In the next article, I can enter the eyes of the prime minister, but I am really fortunate to have three lives." ”

Qin Yuandao smiled, looked at Ji Ziqi and said: "The article is very well written, I haven't seen such a transparent article for a long time, and I deserve to be a descendant of the Ji family." ”

"Does the prime minister know about the Ji family?" Ji Ziqi was a little surprised, he thought that after one or two hundred years, no one knew about the Ji family for a long time.

"Of course you know." Qin Yuandao said with a smile, "It's not surprising that you can be at the top of the list." ”

Ji Ziqi didn't speak anymore after hearing this, just lowered his head and drank slowly.

At this time, Liang Huanqing was about to go to the Baohe Hall after dressing up.

She was dressed in a lilac gown embroidered with blooming purple irises and their fluttering petals, lined with a milky white silver silk light gauze shirt. A light blue drape is tied around the waist to accentuate the slender and well-proportioned figure. The hair is combed into a flowing bun, with a few hairpins dotted with hairpins, and the other hair is naturally combed into a strand, and a purple hairband is tied at the end of the hair, which is modified with a small crystal hairpin. Without any powder, the curved willow eyebrows are still charming; The big eyes of the water spirit are still black and bright, emitting a slight electricity; The fair skin is still white and red, the lips are still ruddy, and the lips are still exuding a faint fragrance, refreshing, elegant and refined, as if she is a fairy who does not eat the fireworks of the world.

One head of green silk picks up a few strands of silk into a flying cloud bun, and the rest is finely braided into a small braid, and then twisted into two large braids, hanging on the shoulders, only a rare water-red peacock hairpin is obliquely inserted on the bun, and a string of white pearls held in the peacock's mouth reflects the sunshine and glows with infinite brilliance. With a little powder, the face is flushed with pink and white, which is extremely eye-catching. Simple mahogany earrings, simple but gorgeous. A pure white dress is the color of a gardenia, white and pink, and the skirt is embroidered with fine cherry blossom petals. The silver-white gauze was draped loosely over his shoulders, and only a lilac brocade belt held the delicate waist that could not be grasped.

The wind is hairy and the sideburns are exposed, the eyebrows and eyes are lightly swept with spring, the skin is delicate and moist like warm jade, the cherry mouth is not dotted and red, delicate and beautiful, and the two strands of hair on the cheeks are gently brushed with the wind, adding a bit of seductive style. The eyes that rotate flexibly turn wisely, a little naughty, a little naughty. Light blue vibrating waist support skirt, water fu-colored jasmine faintly full of sleeves, three thousand green silk rolled up a loose cloud bun, casually wearing a painted silver belt, loosely tied around the waist with ink-colored palace di, obliquely inserted a simple flying butterfly silver flower Huasheng, the light-colored tassels fell at will, rippling a trace of ripples in the wind, the eyebrows are still a little cinnabar, and the graceful posture is graceful.

Today's Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, she doesn't want to dress up too grandly, she is usually tired enough, and now she wants to be only a queen mother in front of the courtiers.

But just as she was about to go to the Baohe Palace, Luo Xun hurriedly intercepted her in the middle of the road with a chess.

"Queen Mother! Queen Mother! Qi Qi shouted as he ran.

This time, the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet did not invite Yiqi, because now he is all about looking for the emperor, Liang Huanqing is not too harsh, and now there are still people who believe that the emperor is still alive like her, and only Yiqi is there.

"Stop the car." Liang Huanqing said.

Yuebai heard the sound of chess, and his heart was mixed, they hadn't spoken properly for a long time.

Qi Qi ran in front of Liang Huanqing at this time, he was very emotional, and knelt down as soon as he met.

"Chess?" Liang Huanqing got down from the sedan chair, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Qi Qi knelt on the ground panting, tears streaming down: "There is news from the emperor, the queen mother!" There is news from the emperor! ”

"What?!" Liang Huanqing looked incredulous.

Everyone looked at the chess with a look of surprise, and then looked at the queen mother.

"Queen Mother! There is news from the emperor! Qi Qi repeated again.
