In the middle of the night before the palace test was released, countless people flocked to the wall of fame outside the Shuntian Gate to post the gold list. The reporters of all parties started the fight, you compete for me just to occupy a position at the right time and place, whether you see the first list or the second list first, turn around and get out of the crowd to report to the inn or hall where the scholar is waiting, and strive to get a big prize. /p>

/p>

The ten-year cold window finally achieved a positive result, regardless of wealth or poverty, the scholars who won the gold list were very generous at this time. The reporters took a fancy to this, and they took out ten percent of their efforts, and they were determined to send the happy letter out in front of others. This job is about being quick with eyes and hands. /p>

/p>

In the cloud inn, the plain blue tile and white wall are illuminated by the sunlight jumping out of the clouds, which looks vibrant. /p>

/p>

This inn is located in a relatively remote location on the corner of the street, and many students from poor families have chosen this place because they are shy of money. In the rather humble inner hall, a lot of people have gathered, sitting together in groups of three or five, some are young, and some are already white. Everyone's hearts were tightly held by the list, and they were anxiously waiting for the person who came to report the news. /p>

/p>

Among these people, only a young man in a green shirt sits firmly like a mountain, looking only seventeen or eighteen years old, his figure is clear and beautiful, his eyebrows are clear and flawless, and his temperament is not like a mortal figure. /p>

/p>

"Brother Hong, you can still hold on." Li Rui was embarrassed to meet the eyes that looked around him frequently, and looked at Hong Yan with a smile. /p>

/p>

Hong Yan has the same warm smile on his face as always, approachable and a little shy. "Actually, I'm so anxious. ”/p>

/p>

Li Rui looked at the people around him and said, "It's a pity that Brother Ruan, something like that happened in vain. If not, at least there is hope for the second grade. ”/p>

/p>

When Hong Yan heard this, he said, "I'm more optimistic about Brother Qin. Don't look at him as a silent person, he has a simple temperament, he may be praised by Scholar Wang, he has something extraordinary, although he is lagging behind this time, but I think that Brother Qin will be able to go further in the palace examination. ”/p>

/p>

Li Rui was a little surprised and asked, "How do you say this?" ”/p>

/p>

Hong Yan saw the emperor's situation thoroughly in his heart. The queen mother, the four major families, and the two kings, are counted as being surrounded by wolves. And no matter which side it is, it has its own position towards the emperor, even if it is his biological mother, the Empress Dowager Song, the entire Song family is also involved behind her. Therefore, the emperor must urgently need to form his own forces and only be loyal to the emperor's own group of newcomers. /p>

/p>

He had planned early on to become one of these people in order to gain a firm foothold in Da'an. As for Qin Cheng, Hong Yan has long studied his articles, and he is born to be a direct minister, as long as he has the opportunity to go to the palace to test, he must leave a place in the emperor's heart. /p>

/p>

Therefore, he maintained Qincheng everywhere, had the friendship of classmates, and was born as a jinshi in the same year, and this friendship was occupied. Moreover, he didn't expect Tang Nian to be in Ji Mansion and by Ji Erlan's side...... In this way, it is exactly what he wanted. /p>

/p>

Thinking of that clear and sparse Ji Erlan, who had strange skills, Hong Yan could barely hide the different colors in his eyes, and always felt that something was out of his control. He restrained his mind slightly, and then replied in a low voice to Li Rui: "Scholar Wang once said that there are all sides of the Manchu Dynasty with a flamboyant tongue, and no one can tell the truth. And Brother Qin is precisely the one who is expected to tell the truth to the emperor. ”/p>

/p>

Li Rui naturally heard of Scholar Wang's words, which had been circulated in Beijing for a while, and many people complained to the emperor after hearing it, but the emperor not only did not blame Scholar Wang, but also laughed it off. At that time, he only thought that the emperor was good-tempered, but at this time, he heard a little eyebrows, isn't it what the emperor needs in his heart, and it is a courtier who dares to speak? /p>

/p>

Li Rui muttered, "No wonder...... It's no wonder that people like Scholar Wang actually praised Brother Qin, it turned out that it was because he took a fancy to his temperament! ”/p>

/p>

Hong Yan said with a smile: "I'm speculating for a while, Brother Li just listens." ”/p>

/p>

Li Rui came back to his senses and arched his hand: "How come?" Brother Hong's Wenqu star came to the world, and since he is a golden and jade good word, Li will definitely remember it in his chest. If you can get ahead in the future, you have to count on Brother Hong to pull it. ”/p>

/p>

Hong Yan showed a bit of confusion, and waved his hand again and again: "Brother Li, don't say that." ”/p>

/p>

Li Rui remembered the rumors that were intensifying today, and said: "Speaking of Brother Qin, his brother-in-law, the Master Ji who served in Dali Temple, heard that when he investigated Liu Qiren, he unexpectedly had someone to put in the money, these people are all very close to Liu Qiren, and some of them were caught by Liu Qiren, and there seems to be a lot of inside information. In my opinion, it can't be said that it was his Lao Tzu, the imperial envoy Liu Zhi who instructed him behind his back. This time, he was caught by Master Ji, and he was unlucky. ”/p>

/p>

Yinzi money, that is, large families take advantage of loopholes to lend usury, which is expressly forbidden by the imperial court. If it is discovered, the homestead will be confiscated at the least, and the house will be exiled at the worst. /p>

/p>

Hong Yan heard him mention the Ji family, his eyes flashed slightly, and he said: "Brother Ruan is the unmarried son-in-law of the eldest daughter of Lord Ji. Because of Liu Qiren, Brother Ruan broke off his future, and his sanity was also greatly hit. Last time we visited Ruan's house, you also saw it...... Alas...... It's pathetic...... Presumably, Lord Ji was also really angry this time. ”/p>

/p>

Li Rui also lamented the impermanence of the world and said: "Since this Lord Ji came to the capital to take office, he has done several important things. This time I have made a contribution, and I think I can mention it again. ”/p>

/p>

He paused, lowered his voice very low, and said: "I heard that several daughters in her family are also very well raised, and when Brother Ruan has an accident, his unmarried wife will not leave her, and she is affectionate and righteous. And the concubine in her family is also very different from ordinary women, and it is rumored in Beijing that she is very intelligent, able to make good decisions, and is a very powerful woman. ”/p>

/p>

Hong Yan thought of Ji Tianjiao, and mocked in his heart, what kind of affectionate and righteous thing can be such a frivolous woman, it is just the lesser of two evils. Even if she doesn't comply, Ji Chenglin won't let her get her wish. As for Ji Erlan, it really made him puzzled for a while. But that's nothing, things have to be done step by step. /p>

/p>

Seeing that he didn't speak, Li Rui suddenly remembered that Ruan Ning's fiancée had knocked down Hong Yan in the study and rolled with him, so he couldn't help but want to laugh, and just as he was about to speak, there was a sudden rush of firecrackers outside the door. /p>

/p>

"It's coming!" /p>

/p>

"Someone's coming to the charts!" /p>

/p>

Everyone in the hall was suddenly silent and confused, standing up and sitting down, almost at a loss. /p>

/p>

Time seems to stand still at this moment, many people are about to have a bright future at this moment, and many people are going to return home in tears. From the street to the end of the street, almost all the scholars waited here for news, and the reporters shouted the names of the people who won the list all the way, and rushed into the places to report the news with the sound of gongs and drums. /p>

/p>

Jinke singing list, the ranking of those who ascended the list is from low to high, and the reporter who rushed in first shouted that he was at the bottom of the ranking. The more back the pomp and circumstance, when the good news reported to Hong Yan, the door of the Yunzhong Inn was almost crowded, and a young man dressed as a small guy and not tall didn't care about the shoes that were squeezed off, so he took the lead in getting out of the messenger and rushed to Hong Yan: "Champion!" The son took the lead, and he was the champion appointed by the emperor! ”/p>

/p>

There was a coaxing in the hall, and they all looked towards Hong Yan. Hong Yan stood in the middle of the crowd with his eyebrows and eyes as before, but he suddenly exuded a compelling momentum from the inside out, making people dare not approach easily. However, for a moment, this feeling dissipated as if it were just an illusion. /p>

/p>

He distributed the red envelope prepared in advance to the people who came to report the good news, and almost scattered the silver on his body, before he and Li Rui squeezed out of the Yunzhong Inn, and said to the scholar next to him: "You go to inquire, what is Brother Qin's ranking?" ”/p>

/p>

"There's no need to ask, in the confusion, I saw a newspaper reporter copy a list of the top 1 in his hand, and the last of the first class is the name of Brother Qin." Li Rui's ranking is in the top ten of the second class, he smiled frankly, and said: "The last of the first class is also 'Jinshi and No.'." I'm still behind you. ”/p>

/p>

The first class of the palace examination is called the first class, and it is given "Jinshi and the first"; The second class is called the second class, and it is given "Jinshi origin"; The third class is called the top three, and it is given "the same Jinshi origin". /p>

/p>

Hong Yan said with a smile: "Where, in the end, we have to support each other." ”/p>

/p>

Li Rui was already very satisfied with his results, and said with a smile: "Today, let's make an appointment with Brother Qin to get drunk!" ”/p>

/p>

In the Ji Mansion, there were several waves of people who reported the good news outside the door, shocking the Qin family in place. Her eldest brother actually passed the first grade? Although it is the last of the first class, it is also the first class! The auspicious seal she prepared in her hand was simply not enough! /p>

/p>

Ji Erlan smiled: "Don't worry, Auntie, I'm ready there." Twilight, you go and bring the auspicious Feng'er we prepared earlier, and let's all go out now. ”/p>

/p>

Qin Cheng glanced at the Qin clan and knew that his sister was actually just looking forward to him entering the top three. It's this niece who is getting more and more eccentric. said: "Er Lan actually expected that his uncle would be able to win the first class? ”/p>

/p>

Ji Erlan looked at the Qin clan assigning people to give rewards, looked at Qin Cheng and said with a smile: "How could Uncle be disappointed!" Moreover, in Er Lan's opinion, the emperor intends to keep you in the first class, and he is set at the end, which has his own intentions. ”/p>

/p>

Qin Cheng looked at his niece in surprise, and he said, "Who told you this?" "How is it the same as what the gentleman said? /p>

/p>

Ji Erlan smiled: "Erlan is just talking nonsense. ”/p>

/p>

There was a small servant in front of him who reported to Qin Cheng that Hong Yan and Li Rui were here. Qin Cheng didn't care to ask any more, so he followed to the front. /p>

/p>

Yuexi asked curiously, "What does the girl mean by what she just said to her uncle?" ”/p>

/p>

"The last of the first class is also 'Jinshi and first', which is different from the second class. As for this 'last', it is natural to hide my uncle in the dark of the torrent, not to attract too much attention, and to go through some training before he can appear in front of people. ”/p>

/p>

The moon breathed and didn't move the affairs of the court, but he asked casually, and then talked about Hong Yan: "I didn't expect this person to be really not an embroidered pillow, but he ordered Zhuangyuanlang!" I wonder if the big girl will regret giving up that? ”/p>

/p>

Ji Erlan smiled: "It doesn't matter if she doesn't regret it later!" ”/p>
