Liu Molin and Su Shunqing are like fish in water, and they are satisfied with the spring breeze in the gentle township, and they are about to get up, when they suddenly hear the footsteps outside the courtyard, like a group of people hugging in. An old woman shouted in a voice: "Li Er's family! If you don't see the mistake, you kidnapped my sister Su away, and you can't find it everywhere! Then I heard the boss smile and say, "Okay, my godaunt? That's your old cash cow, I'm just a grave with a green face, dare to kidnap it? Sister Su was in the north room, and she was still listening to her singing, so I was afraid that she was sitting on the ground and talking with Liu Ye for a while. The villain is confused and blinded, and he just wants to drop a few horses to lead the money, godaunt, the person who walks the horse on your arm, do you care about this idea? One said, and the other came in with the old bustard. Liu Molin was stunned, Su Shunqing was already bluffing her face as white as paper, and pushed Liu Molin to get up and said, "Hurry up and get dressed!" While propping himself up, he pulled off his little coat and put it on randomly, and then tied his belt. Just as he was panicking, the door was opened with a "bang".

"Oh my God!" When the woman saw the scene of the two of them, her legs were weak and she almost sat on the ground, and she pounced on her knees with a swing, and scolded in her mouth: "You goddamn cunt and prodigal hoof!" These days, I know that you are complaining - the old Nalan family has 3,000 taels of silver to redeem you, and Xu Gongzi has 300 silver to open your face, and you pretend to be sick and stupid, saying 'reluctant mother'! This is good-" She cried and scolded, grabbed Shunqing's hair and pulled it off the bed and dragged it to the ground, pointing at Liu Molin and saying, "What is this?" The fame of losing a bell in tatters, calling Huazi is not like calling Huazi, singing is not like singing, and the characters are not worthy of lifting shoes for Xu Dagongzi-" She glanced at Liu Molin, who was stunned in the local area, "-Which field can't grow such a crooked pumpkin, you just sleep with him?" You unscrupulous who kills a thousand knives! The shopkeeper Li Er saw someone looking inside the store, and said with a smile, "Okay, my old godaunt, aunt ancestor, you wake up!" Who knows if you don't publicize this broken body? A bed of brocade is covered, and Mr. Liu will break a few more, is it not good for everyone to round the field? What's the benefit of jumping over the wall like this! Before he finished speaking, the old bustard had already smacked his face and scolded: "You can!" Your dad is notoriously 'not counting', ask your mom, did she fool around on the first night of the wedding? ”

One sentence made everyone cover their mouths and laugh. Liu Molin knew that it was the cash cow of this mother-in-law, and when he saw Su Shunqing standing on the ground with tears on her face and just sobbing, she shook her heart for a while and said, "Old mother, don't be powerful." Raw rice is cooked rice, and it's useless for you to hit your head and die! Well...... How much money Shun Qing redeemed, I will pay you back, Shun Qing is my person! The old woman wiped a handful of tears and snot, glanced at the room, stared at Liu Molin with dead eyes, pouted and sneered: "With you? Okay, the old lady simply made a loss-making deal, the head jewelry and silver don't want you, the principal silver is 3,000, as long as you are 2,500. One hand to hand over the silver, the other hand to the person - take it! He stretched out his hand.

"Two thousand five is two thousand five." Liu Molin smiled faintly, "You were born with eight eyes, I don't care about you - my family is not poor, so I will write a letter and ask Zhejiang Yinhao to redeem it, can it be done?" People, stay with me......" The bustard woman clapped her hands and laughed: "Listen to all of you! This wild student who can't starve to death is not afraid of swelling to death when he talks big! Tell you, a poor student like you has seen a lot, but I'm afraid that it will be cheaper than the eight kings in the Yongding River, and you want to be fooled by me! You coaxed my daughter, and I haven't even bothered to settle accounts with you! You underestimate me, the eighth mother, and there are two grandfathers sitting in my house now! You will go with me, delicious food and drink for you, less than half a month of silver, a note to send you Shuntianfu, pick up your official skin, you are only worthy of being a big teapot in my courtyard! Liu Molin's face turned purple when he landed, and he trembled with anger, and he didn't say anything, grabbing a step to "snap" was two slaps. slapped the woman all over the face, and scolded with a halberd: "What are you?" I am a famous eunuch in the south of the Yangtze River! Gongsheng is also my talent step by step, and the court gave me a fame! You old, who is the power to bully people with such big eyes! Su Shunqing knew that the old bustard was fine, and said hurriedly: "Liu ...... Mr. Liu, I can't help it! ”

As he spoke, a middle-aged man in his thirties stepped into the room, stared at Liu Molin with his eyes, gently shook a bamboo fan of the muddy gold Xiangfei, and said, "She took advantage of my power!" You are a poor student, which eye should I use to look at you? You are a tribute student, but you know the rules of the Great Qing Dynasty: the protégé of the Son of Heaven lives in prostitution, insults the rules of the Holy Gate, and ignores the court's merits! He turned his face to the bustard's mother and said, "Old beggar, what kind of quarrel with such a person?" Send him to the country's prison, and I will send him disobedience with a note! Liu Molin looked at the visitor carefully, and saw that he was wearing a sauce-colored lake silk four-open air mass flower robe, black mud mille-feuille shoes under his feet, a blue satin dark cloud trimmed Baturu vest on his upper body, a Hanyu pendant betel nut purse tied on a dark Wolong bag, a red velvet top on a black satin melon skin hat, two thick eyebrows on the square face twisted together, thick lips and two corners hanged down, and a look of arrogance like no one else, but I don't know what it is. Just as he was about to ask, the old bustard was already full of smiles and blessed the man, and said, "Yo! It's Xu Ye! You're here in person! I was asking our sister Su to come over and wait for you, but it happened that this wild bastard was teasing her! If you don't come, I really don't know how to send him down! The master said that he would send him to the country's eunuch, can he make it? Only then did Liu Molin know that this person was Xu Jun, the "son of the Prime Minister" of Xu Qianxue, a scholar of Hugh Zhi. I heard that Xu Jun's poems, songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and paintings are not vulgar hands, how can a famous talent in Jinghua have such a face? Liu Molin was about to speak, Xu Jun was full of mouth, and several courtyard kings standing at the door pounced like wolves, picked up Liu Molin and left.

"I thought you were a Confucian champion," Liu Molin struggled, turned his head and shouted, "It turned out to be a well-dressed beast and a romantic bully!" ”

Xu Jun walked down the stairs, staring at Liu Molin, like a cat catching a mouse, and laughed in his mouth: "Merry bully? Wonderful, unheard of! I think you're more like a flower willow soul - wait for the prince to sacrifice wine to peel off your official skin, and then come to reason with the bully - go! ”

A group of people pushed and shoved, teasing Liu Molin as soon as he came out of the second door, when he heard the sound of gongs outside the door, and several street gangsters shouted and laughed: "Master Liu Molin lives here?" Reward! Congratulations to Mr. Liu for exploring the flowers and the first! Everyone couldn't help but be surprised, the turtles in the two courtyards holding Liu Molin had already let go of their hands, and a group of people carved clay sculptures nailed to the second door, and even Xu Jun was stunned. It took Liu Molin a long time to come back to his senses, and he was afraid that it was an ear hallucination, and when he looked at it, he saw two pen posts holding big red posters, surrounded by a group of street ruffians who liked money, and swarmed in from the gate - rushing to take a few steps to take a closer look at the wedding card, the red background and gold powder were bright.

Gong knocked on Master Liu, and the third place in the first class of the Molin High School Hall Examination

Liu Molin's eyes were dizzy, he felt that his legs were weak, and he almost collapsed, and when he was in control, he asked, "Which one is the official from the Ministry of Rites?" The two pen posts flashed out with a smile and said goodbye to Qian'er, saying:

"You're a nouveau riche old man? Greetings to you! ”

"Who's the first name?"

"Hui Ye's words. The champion is Mr. Wang Wenshao, and the eye of the list is Mr. Yin Jishan. Master Wang's first report from Master Yin has already come to visit you, and they are all waiting outside the door! ”

"It's worth it, why didn't you say it earlier?" Liu Molin was taken aback, leaving everyone out of the gate in three steps and two steps, and saw Wang Wenshao and Yin Jishan standing in front of the sedan chair next to the dismounted stone to talk, and there were thousands of people around, buzzing and pressing, tiptoeing and stretching their necks to look at the "Sanyuan Xianggong". Liu Molin stepped out of the gate in full view of everyone, bowed to the two, and said with a smile: "Brother Wang Nian and Brother Yin Nian have been waiting for a long time, and my brother has congratulated the two!" ”

Where did Wang Wenshao and Yin Jishan know about the public case inside: Liu Molin didn't wear a gown, the corners of the robe were misaligned, the front placket was high and the back placket was low, the double beam was exposed with white feet, the socks were not worn, and the hair looked scattered and fluffy, the two couldn't help but look at each other and smile, and arched up the steps with fists. Yin Jishan quietly pulled Liu Molin's bottom sleeve and laughed in a low voice: "Are you exploring 'flowers' or 'exploring melons'?" Look at this outfit, has he just been robbed by thieves? Liu Molin only woke up at this time, and when he swept with his eyes, Xu Jun and his party had already disappeared without a trace. The old bustard woman probably knew that she was guilty, and quietly bowed her head and knelt at the corner of the east room without saying a word - he was busy straightening his clothes, and while letting the two of them go to the upper room, he called the landlord: "I still have more than 100 taels of silver next to my pillow, and the two pen posts are sixteen taels each, and the rest of you are replaced by copper coins to send the good news on my behalf, and I will talk to the two young brothers, and I will reward you again!" The boss was already in a state of urine, and he promised to go one after another.

"Two young brothers," the three of them sat down to offer tea, Liu Molin wiped his sweat and said, "Don't hide it from you, I'm still confused in my heart." I went to see the list, and I didn't have my name! What's going on? Yin Jishan glanced at Wang Wenshao and said with a smile: "I was also surprised, just to report the good news to the house, and my father also came back from the next court, saying that the top three of the first class had just been judged, and there was a volume in it that was personally selected by Long Live in the volume." Brother Nian, think about it, is there something wrong with your strategy? Liu Molin tilted his head and thought about it for a while, only to feel that his heart was cloudy, and he couldn't remember a word of the strategy he made, so he had to smile and say: "I only heard that there are people who fill in the five kui, but I didn't expect that this year's Enke Sacred Heart is dictatorial, 'backfilling three yuan'." I have never looked at this Tanhua, I am satisfied to be able to win a second-class jinshi, but I am actually lucky, it is really the emperor's grace! - I wonder what went wrong in my brother's strategy? Since it is a fall, why is it biased and the holy will? ”

Wang Wenshao said with a smile: "Long live is not to 'fill in the three yuan'. In fact, when the list was released, Sanyuan had not yet been decided. I'm still in the second class! It was also pulled out by Banzai alone. There is a sentence 'Fan Shengyinde' in Brother Nian's volume, which is a holy offense, and it is hopeless to do so. I don't want to live all the scrolls, according to my father, when I saw these words when I looked at Liu Nian's brother's scrolls, I just smiled, and I used a red pen to change the word 'Yin' to 'quote', saying: 'Jun Xiang is the master of life, and I want to save a blunt autumn wind Xiucai!'" So the young brother was selected. Yin Jishan nodded and said, "Brother Liu is a true Jinshi!" That's the outlier! Long live the pro-change policy, Brother Nian's policy is naturally taken first, but Brother Nian's words are not standardized, so he took Tanhua. ”

Only then did Liu Molin know that it was Yongzheng who corrected his own mistakes to get the middle, and for this reason, he was late to the top three, and did not list the "three yuan" of the champion list to the top of the palace examination list. He took a sip of tea and wanted to laugh, but somehow he couldn't laugh, and he couldn't even say a witty and ridiculous word, he only felt that the five were boiling, and a sour and hot thing like blood was stirring up and going straight to the top, and he smiled for a long time: "The sacred heart is lofty, and the holy light is unpredictable." 'Autumn Wind Bluff Xiucai' has only one death retribution - Li Er! Pose for the guys! Wang Wenshao got up with a smile and said, "The two of us came to worship you, this is the rule." Seeing you, I'm the one now. Now is not the time to eat and drink, the three of us have to report to the Ministry of Rites immediately, Ming'er enters the Baohe Temple to pass on the face of the saint, I still have to go to meet the former champion, and I also have to write a thank you form. As soon as you observe the etiquette, you must consult the Ministry of Etiquette, which cannot be mistaken at all. Let's go to my house for a drink in the evening, let's take off our hats and papers, play leaf cards, gamble and eat, how about it? Liu Molin couldn't help but smile when he saw that the two of them got up with the tea, and they had already brought the official faction, because he got up and said: "Please take a step first, I will arrive after changing clothes, and I can't make a mistake." ”

So Wang and Yin resigned, and Liu Molin sent them out of the door, watched them ascend to the sedan chair, and hurriedly changed their dresses. Li Er had already waited with the guys in the shop, and the group was messily helping him to put on and change, and he was very attentive to the gray button tie, and he couldn't help but say: "Lord is a good blessing, this time I will go to Hanlin on time, and I may have to be the priest of the country!" Don't tell the truth, as soon as you come to live in the hotel, the villain thinks that my store is extravagant, otherwise, you owe so much room money, when will you see the villain urging? The lights in my house last night, boom a burst of joy, boom a burst of joy...... I didn't expect that the master would be so happy today, so I should be on it! In the shop of Fangjia on the front street, there was a second-class seventeen in the last subject, and Fang Ermazi's eyes were on his forehead. This time, the villain also has to be beautiful! Liu Molin took care of his hands and was served by them, and said "um" in his mouth, and finally said: "Your conscience is not bad, I will write you a new signboard tomorrow!" So saying, he came out, stomped comfortably under the dripping eaves, paced to the old bustard's wife, snorted, and asked:

"Where's Shunqing?"

The old pious woman knelt for a long time, she was already carves and bones, and when she saw the new noble person coming to ask, she didn't dare to agree, so she straightened her waist first, opened the bow left and right and slapped herself in the mouth more than a dozen times, and scolded herself: "The old immortal bitch, the bastard Wang Ba who eats shit all her life and doesn't have long eyes!" God is a shameful punishment today...... Your lord is a noble man born in the sky, but he is pitiful to see that his mother-in-law is old, and he should hear the dog barking......" Liu Molin said impatiently: "Deal with you, are you worthy?" I'm asking Shunqing! Called the surname Xu and taken away? The old bustard kowtowed and said, "Uncle Xu is boring to make trouble, so he left early in the chaos." Sister Su just called the thief Wang Ba to rub her heart and mouth sick, and I asked someone to send her back in a small sedan chair to rest - don't worry, not a single hair is short of you! is a master who is considerate, and Uncle Xu is also a character who stomps his feet and trembles in the four cities, and it is not easy for us to mix this bowl of rice in this seam...... Xu Ye's son, a lot of friends, big hands, and Enyin Jinshi, is now doing the Metropolitan Procuratorate to observe the master, we can't afford to provoke, Sister Su belongs to who is nothing, just ask the noble lord to understand our idea of difficulty, and Xu Ye said to stop, a sedan chair to send my sister to the house...... "The old woman said, I don't know which sentence touched the heart, it was already a sobble.

"What's so great about Xu Jun?" Liu Molin sneered and walked away, and said: "Even his old man Xu Qianxue knows that it is not a good thing!" Hello Sheng is waiting for Shunqing, I have my own ideas! After that, he came out and hired a sedan chair to rush to the Ministry of Rites.

At five drums in the morning of the next day, led by the official of the Ministry of Rites, Wang Wenshao was the first, and followed Yin Jishan, Liu Molin and other 360 palace test first, second and third class jinshi, from the right door of the noon gate into the inner court. At this time, the sky is full of cold stars, the dawn moon is like a hook, there are glass palace lamps hanging in the eaves of the corridors in the palace, and the brick roads in the Linqing are plated with a faint silver gray. This group of people crossed the Jinshui Bridge in the order of the list, climbed the Taihe Gate and entered, and saw the three towering halls in the distance, under the starry sky, the royal forest sergeants next to the channel grade mountain stood with their swords hanging from their chests and waists, and stood like nails. The wind at the time of the fifth watch swept the floating soil on the square in front of the foundation of the Taihe Palace, and the chill of Ji Chun came to the face, causing this group of new "nobles" to be silent, and even their footsteps were lightened. People were nervous with excitement and solemnity, and before they boarded the platform of the three major halls, they had already felt the **** of the Nine Heavenly Que system and the royal demeanor. The official of the Ministry of Rites brought the Jinshi to the Baohe Hall and signaled to stop—this was all explained repeatedly yesterday, so without saying a word, everyone stopped with a gesture. The Jinshi didn't say a word, staring at the brilliant Baohe Palace, imagining the upcoming grace and honor, and thanking themselves for the ten years of hard work in the cold window and lonely lamp finally had a result, and their hearts were all fluttering, and they couldn't taste it. After a while, he saw You Mingtang, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, cautiously withdrew from the Baohe Palace, walked to the south in front of everyone, and said loudly:

"By the Holy Commandment!"

"Hooray!"

The jinshi shook their hands, the horseshoe sleeves made a mountain sound, the black crows knelt on the ground, and the huge empty field was so quiet that they coughed and did not hear a phlegm. You Mingtang said: "By the fourth Jinshi Cao Wenzhi roll call, meet the holy face!" ”

"Piercing!" Cao Wenzhi crawled out from behind Liu Molin, kowtowed to Wangbao Hedian, took the list handed over by You Mingtang with both hands, got up and bowed to the main hall, and then turned around and called his name loudly, "Wang Wenshao, Yin Jishan, Liu Molin......" His voice trembled a little, but after reading the names of more than 20 people, it was natural.

This is the rumor in front of the palace, Wang Wenshao is the first one, bowed down with the eyes of the flower and walked in, bowed his head and knelt solemnly in the place designated by Xing Nian, it took a long time to be considered appropriate. People waited with bated breath, their backs and palms were sweating, and they heard the three sound of the silent whip in the hall, and then the sound of drums rose thinly, and the great eunuch Li Dequan said loudly: "Long live the Lord is coming!" Only then did people know that Emperor Yongzheng was not on the throne at all.

Emperor Yongzheng walked in Xu Bu in the music, he didn't sleep well last night, his eyes were a little dark, but his spirit looked fine, and his dim pupils were burning under the candle. He paused at the entrance of the hall for a moment, glanced at the new branch jinshi, and then looked back at Yun Xiang, Yun Xu, Ma Qi, Long Keduo and Zhang Tingyu who were following behind him, and without saying a word, he went up to the Sumeru seat set up in the hall. Seeing that Yongzheng was looking at him, he bowed down and said loudly in front of the throne: "In the first year of Yongzheng, Enke Jinshi has finished singing. The new scholars knelt down to listen to the holy oracle of the Long Live Lord! ”

"Hooray!"

"You are all scholars, you don't need to be heavy on the drums." Yongzheng took a sip, cleared his throat, and said calmly, "I carefully studied your resume last night, three hundred and sixty jinshi, one hundred and ninety-four from humble backgrounds, seventy-four from the gentry and eunuchs, seventeen in the Enyin Gongsheng Palace, and the remaining sixty-five are the children of the provincial priests and six departments and nine Qings. I have seen this number, and Li Fu's taking of the scholar is still fair. He picked up the cup, held it in both hands, but didn't just drink it, and said, "The country takes the soldiers, and compares them every three years, for what?" The purpose is to use you people, either to assist me in administrative affairs, or to take care of the local government on my behalf, to govern civil affairs and regulate the people's feelings. Zi said, "Learn and excel, you are here, step by step, you are already 'learning and excellent', this 'Shi' does well, it depends on yourself! In the past, you were born as a child and showed talents, and from the talents of Xiucai to raise people, and Jinshi, with articles and knowledge, why should you be officials in the future? I send you two words. ”

All of them bowed their heads. The hall was so quiet that even the sound of the eunuchs tiptoeing outside the hall could be heard.

"Heavenly conscience." Yongzheng gritted his fine white teeth, smiled and burst out two words from between his teeth, "Heaven is 'Heavenly Principle', and Liang is 'Conscience'." If you don't go against human feelings, you follow the principles of heaven, and if you follow the way, you have a conscience. Keeping these two words, you will be able to win your glory, you will be rich, and you will be able to give you a wife and a son—because you are both fair, loyal and clear, and the glory you deserve is given to you by God, and I am happy to give it to you for the benefit of the country and the people. If you don't say these two words, you can kill your head, go to prison, and exile you - you will take the blame, and I will be happy to send you! ”

Zhang Tingyu has been in the central office for more than 20 years for life, Kangxi was summoned by the court in his later years, but he said "as usual", at most he commanded a "good life to read my grace", seeing Yongzheng's repeated words and admonitions, which was originally a very happy and lively ceremony, which made everyone nervous, and couldn't help but sink his heart and frowned, he was used to "standing outside" for the sake of the emperor. Thinking about it, he turned his face to look at the sides of the emperor, Prince Yi Yunxiang was calm, Prince Lian Yunxi was expressionless, and suddenly thought of Zhang Tinglu, and his heart was cold. was thinking about himself, but he heard Yongzheng continue: "I have been on the throne for forty years in the domain, and I have repeatedly gone out to Beijing to observe the people's feelings. Nowadays, there is a first-class bastard atmosphere, the imperial examination selection of scholars, which is a grand ceremony for the imperial court, and the examiner takes out a kind of 'teacher and student' affection from it, and the protégé thinks that the selection is the examiner's kindness. I won it, I only remember that I am a certain science jinshi, so-and-so is a teacher, and so-and-so is the same year. From this word 'private' to find favor, so they formed friends, favoritism, not favoritism, not understanding Dali, not thinking of Jun's grace, and all rude and illegal deeds were done. If you become an official according to this selfish intention, remember, you will not escape the insight of me, and you will not escape the laws of the country! Speaking of this, Yongzheng smiled lightly and said, "Today is your festive day, don't blame me for talking about these." Ten years of prosperity in a mantra, I am still good for you - you see, there is a Zhang Tingyu standing here, like you back then, I also heard the holy teachings of the first emperor, and now I am my confidant! Tingyu, you have been conscientious, diligent and loyal for decades, it is not easy! I will set an example for them today, and keep a record - Zhang Tingyu gave the Forbidden City a horse to ride a horse, and he chose a descendant of Enyin Gongsheng to accompany the prince's family to be selected. ”

"Hooray!" Zhang Tingyu never expected Yongzheng to suddenly talk about himself, and he didn't expect to give such a high praise and reward all at once, his head "buzzed" and rose to the boss, he hurriedly lifted the corner of his robe and knelt down, kowtowed and said: "Long live such a glorious favor, how can the minister be restrained-"

Yongzheng waved his hand and shouted: "You just want to say Zhang Tinglu again, I already know that it is none of your business, and it is clear that the merit is Mingjun - this is the decision." After that, he listened to the tea with a smile. Yun Yu stepped forward and said in a loud voice: "The champion led all the jinshi to express their gratitude!" ”

"Minister-Wang Wenshao!"

Wang Wenshao agreed in a trembling voice, got up and walked three steps to the throne, danced and bowed three times and bowed nine times, carefully took out the thank you fold on the cover of Huang Aya from his sleeve, and read it boldly:

Ci Jinshi and Wang Wenshao, the first minister of the first class, etc., are sincerely afraid of the first speech: Fu is in the wind and clouds, and the peace is the period of profit; The sun and the moon are beautiful, and the auspiciousness of the Toast Association is auspicious. The book is bright, the group looks at the new day of the holy rule, worships the hand, and sees the civilization Pihuan. Longzhang Qin, people know the glory of the ancients, and Yan Cheng frequently awarded the prosperity of the world's right literature. It is open and silky, and the crown is set and the ring is bright. The pen has a heart, and the joint Zhiqing. Stealing but speaking bluntly, the department of Kinmen Youte Zhao; Filial piety and Ming Jing, the choice of Nangong. Luo Hairpin is under the Queen, and Xin looks at Yan Chuying; Xuan Feng Zhao was on the side, competing for the door to call for the handsome......

He read aloud, more and more fluently, but Zhang Tingyu had no heart to grasp these luxuriously whitewashed champion articles. The bloody execution ground of Zhang Tinglu yesterday, the flickering words and inquiring eyes when Ninth Elder Brother Yunyu came to visit the mansion last night, and Fang Caiyongzheng's sudden commendation were all messed up in his heart, and it was difficult to sort out the clue for a while. When listening to Wang Wenshao, he became more and more subdued and frustrated, and his tone was sonorous, and there was a faint sound of gold and stone:

…… Yang Chengtian's words are detailed, and Linxuan is close at hand; Exhaust the stubbornness of foolishness, and the countermeasures are terrifying. Ministers and other tourists are willing, assisting in the treatment of non-talents, reciting the words of worry and then happiness, and stealing Xiwen Zhicao. Fu is willing to learn from Mao Jixi, Delong Guangyun. The wind is the same as the eight tables, and the bead sac and the golden mirror shine together; Blessing should be nine, Hua Zhu and Song call and offer. Heavy and tired, and the atmosphere is always flowing. Cover the sky and the pair, and the phoenix dance to be auspicious; All nations come together, Ji Yu inspects the gold clay and makes an ode! The ministers have nothing to look up to the heavens and worship the saints, and they are eager to meet the camp, and I would like to thank you for hearing it!

All the jinshi waited for the word "to smell", and when they heard Wang Wenshao read it, they all bowed down and kowtowed: "Congratulations to God!" ”

"That's it." Yongzheng smiled, took the thank you watch from Li Dequan, unfolded it and put it aside, stared at Wang Wenshao and said, "Hmm...... Wang Wenshao, you are from Master Wang's family, right? Wang Wenshao hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Yes, Mrs. Wang is the third cousin of my father." ”

"Oh, three suits. That's not far. The family history is worthy of the champion's handwriting, and the article is very good. ”

"The minister did not dare to accept the gold award. In fact, last night he discussed with Yin Jishan, the first and second Jinshichen, and Liu Molin, the first and third Jinshichen, and it was written by the minister. ”

Yongzheng nodded with a smile and said, "A good article for discussion, full of flowers." But is there nothing else besides making a fuss? For example, eat some wine, pair poems, etc., after all, you were named on the gold list yesterday, which is a happy day! ”

Wang Wenshao glanced at Yin Jishan and Liu Molin, and hurriedly kowtowed and replied: "Back to Long live, the ministers did not dare to drink because they were afraid of losing their manners because of today's pilgrimage to Longyan. After thanking the expression, the ministers played the leaf play for a while. Later, one card was missing, and they scattered. ”

Yongzheng laughed and said, "Okay! Don't deceive the dark room, the real champion also! As he spoke, he took out a domino from his sleeve and flashed it to Wang Wenshao, "Is it this one?" ”

"Huh?!" Wang Wenshao looked at it, was taken aback, hurriedly bowed his head, and said, "It's ...... It is this 'Peach Source Paradise - Peach of the Dead (幺). ”

Yongzheng smiled and didn't say anything more, sat upright and leaned on the back of the chair, his expression had become solemn, and he said after a long time: "Very good, all the ministers kneel down!" ”

"Hooray!"

More than 300 people roared, bowed their heads together, and sent Yongzheng off his seat to ascend to the public. In an instant, His Majesty Dan was happy, Huang Zhong, Da Lu, Taituan, Jia Zhong, Gu Xi...... In the sound of all kinds of palace music, the lips of the worshippers of Changyin Pavilion were one by one, and they sang with words:

Open Longping, enlighten civilization, five-color clouds, Shan Ganghong, Kailuo Junying, Wutong Caifengyong. The gas is like a pearl, the river is like a mirror, and the talents are gathered in Pengying.
