Chapter 15 Start the Exam

The houses made of fine mahogany repairs, crossed with fine gold lacquer, make the students' mansions bright, the eaves are hooked, and the lion heads are carved realistically.

In the middle of the school there is a large open space, filled with wooden tables covered with white rice paper, brushes and inkstones.

Due to the large number of participants in the annual imperial examination, the student hall has also been built to be huge, and it is more than enough to accommodate this year's candidates.

Xing Xiu first went to another venue, where several painters were sitting, who had quickly drawn the portraits of the candidates, and then placed them in wooden boxes.

It was Xing Xiu's turn, she raised her legs and stepped forward slightly to sit down, the originally noisy sounds around her suddenly quieted down, and the onlookers looked at Xing Xiu in shock, they swore that they had never seen such a good-looking person in their lives!

The painters were also stunned, they had painted for thousands of candidates, and they had never seen someone with such perfect facial features and such a close face shape! This is a masterpiece of heaven!

Due to the large number of people queuing up at the back, the painter quickly came back to his senses and even thought about how to draw before putting down the pen, after all, this face is a peerless beauty that is seen once in 10,000 years!

Xing Xiu didn't care about being baptized by everyone's gaze, no matter how she looked at her face, it was hers.

Xing Xiu's portrait has been completed, and the rest of the people are still staring at her face with reluctance.

Xing Xiu got rid of the wave of sight behind him, quickened his pace and left to the examination room.

Above the examination room sat this year's chief examiner - He Nianlang, he was only more than 20 years old this year, and he became a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, young and promising, and handsome, almost the object of admiration of unmarried women in the capital.

Originally, the chief examiner should have been Wang Zheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, but Wang Zhenyi wanted to see how difficult the imperial examination was, so Wang Zheng handed over the examiner to He Nianlang in order to avoid suspicion.

The candidates who came in front of them were already seated, and the examination room was silent.

Xing's cultivation is like the wind, and the candidates who have sat down can only see her extremely delicate chin, and at a glance, she is the best in the world.

Naturally, the person sitting in the front didn't know what was happening behind him.

Xing Xiu found a seat and sat down according to his number, and looked at Wang Zhenyi sitting in front of him a little, with a straight back, a collar meticulously clinging to the skin, and a straight hair.

As if sensing a certain gaze, Wang Zhenyi looked back and saw a beautiful man sitting behind him, he was stunned, until he was awakened by Xing Xiu's playful eyes, he blushed and turned back angrily.

Xing Xiu bent the corners of his mouth, the style of Wang Zheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was really upright, and He Nianlang sitting on it was even more fair and selfless, she should not be brushed out by the power of some noble children.

By the time all the candidates have entered, a long time has passed.

The deputy examiner posted the exam questions this time, which is nothing more than a test of poetry or current affairs.

Xing Xiu looked at the exam questions of this time, fortunately, she has been learning about the big and small affairs of the Yan Dynasty recently, and she has seen many ways to solve these similar problems in ancient books, plus she has played well in writing, so she doesn't need to worry about this exam at all.

After a long time, Xing Xiu dropped her name, looked at the rice paper that had been written with satisfaction, she put down the brush, moved her sore wrist, stood up, and sighed around and said aloud: "I wrote it." ”

Hearing this, the deputy examiners sitting above suddenly looked at the only young man standing in the audience, and even He Nianlang couldn't help but look at this eye-catching teenager, it was really too eye-catching.

An assistant examiner hurried down, he had never seen a candidate submit his papers so quickly and so confidently in so many years of proctoring.

"Xing Xiu?" The deputy examiner read her name and asked Xing Xiu again in disbelief: "Are you sure you want to hand in the paper?" ”

"Sure." Xing Xiu nodded affirmatively, turned around and left the Student's Mansion.

Leaving a group of candidates with bitter faces still writing articles, they all thought that the first person to hand in the paper would be Wang Zhenyi, but they didn't expect it to be this beautiful son.

The exam paper was handed over to He Nianlang, and at first glance, the font was chic, the strong pen power, and the powerful lines showed the great ambition of this person.

He glanced at the name where he put pen to paperβ€”Xing Xiu. He Nianlang went through it hastily first, and found that Xing Xiu's article couldn't be understood at all after reading it hastily.

He Nianlang had to read it carefully, and after reading it, he became more and more surprised, this and this are completely correct, even more perfect than the correct solution, and the words of this article are safe, simple and practical more than everything.

The other deputy examiners watched the examiner's smile gradually expand, and they didn't know what the examinee had written, which made the examiner so happy that he wanted to come over and take a look, "My lord, how did that examinee write?" Let's see! ”

He Nianlang held the article in his arms as if he was holding a treasure, and refused, "Look at what to see!" You still don't give me a good proctoring? ”

The deputy examiners are sweating, and the adults are really stingy.

At this moment, everyone in the examination room felt a chill rushing to their faces.

A figure appeared from the side door, Xiao Bo was dressed in a purple gold python robe, and a lifelike crane was embroidered with gold thread on the robe, he was angular, his face was cold, the bridge of his nose was high, his thin lips were pursed, and a pair of blue eyes that were different from ordinary people flickered dimly, mysterious and unpredictable.

Every move is graceful; A pair of blue eyes, see the world's warmth and coldness, proud of the world.

The once-in-a-century accident, He Nianlang was taken aback, and hurriedly knelt down, "Prime Minister." ”

Affected by this terrible evil aura, none of the people present dared to raise their eyes to look at this man who had fallen into the Yan Dynasty.

The rest of the candidates, including Wang Zhenyi, had to stop writing and kneel down in front of this teenager who was about the same age as them, or even a few years younger.

They could not get up without the permission of the prime minister.

A young man dressed in the armor of a Yan Dynasty general stepped forward, compared to the evil aura on Xiao Bo's body, he was much gentler, "Lord He, please bring the test paper of the candidate just now." ”

He Nianlang boasted that he was young and successful, but in front of Xiao Bo, it can be said that he is a big deal.

Xiao Bo, these two words, everyone knows them in the Yan Dynasty. Even, even in other enemy countries, the murderous Huns were terrified when they heard the word Xiao Bo.

The frontier war ten years ago was calmed down by Xiao Bo, in exchange for several years of stability on the border. After the class teacher returned to the court, he promulgated a series of measures, drastic reforms, ruthless methods, decisive killing, even the emperor was fiercely restrained by him, helpless him.

Moreover, the people praised him the highest, and even the first time the people in the market talked about current affairs was not the emperor but Xiao Bo!

Officials said that the country was going to change hands and change his surname to Xiao, but Xiao Bo didn't do that, and he spent ten years in peace.

Throwing away the miscellaneous thoughts in his heart, He Nianlang hurriedly spread out the test paper and held it carefully with both hands, for fear that he would accidentally anger this uncertain prime minister.

Yang Chengyun took the test paper and respectfully handed it to Xiao Bo, who was exuding a cold air in front of him, "My lord." ”

Xiao Bo's eyes did not move, he looked down slowly, his eyes fell on the word "Xing Xiu", his cold expression seemed to loosen a little, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, but everyone was panicked, where did they dare to see what the expression of the prime minister was.

Nervously kneeling on the ground and waiting for a long time, the cold around him gradually disappeared, and He Nianlang heard Yang Chengyun say gently: "My lord, please get up, Prime Minister, he has left." ”

He Nianlang sighed at this time, got up from the ground, and asked the deputy examiners to continue to invigilate the exam, and he went to see Yang Chengyun leave.

Because he had just been delayed for a while, Wang Zhenyi had just stopped writing, his face was already covered with sweat, no matter how the deputy examiner called him behind his back, he left quickly, he wanted to see who Xing Xiu was? How could it be so beautiful......

As Yan Kong, of course you have to know such a beautiful little boy!

Xing Xiu walked out of the student's mansion and said excitedly: "Master, do you want to celebrate your success in the examination!" ”

"Don't be in such a hurry." Xing Xiu poked a squeak, the gold list had not yet been posted, and Squeak couldn't wait.

It is estimated that the silver ticket that Yanqing gave her is running out, and she doesn't plan to wander outside, so she goes back to the inn to rest.
