Outside the Xuande Gate, the spacious streets of Xiangri are also surrounded by water.

A long queue of honor guards came from the end of the street.

The queue walked very slowly, a short distance of more than 100 zhang, but it took a quarter of an hour to get closer.

Both sides of the street were crowded with people, men, women and children, watching and making a commotion.

Some people have long been holding food and selling them in the crowd.

"Xiucai Gong, buy a Mazazi to stand tall, the new science and technology jinshi is coming!"

A thin and dry scholar waved his hand and signaled that he didn't want it, but the lady next to him had already shouted one after another: "A lot of money? ”

More than a dozen pony zazi on the back of the hawker were sold out in a blink of an eye.

Before he could count the money, the sound of drums in the royal street was getting closer and closer, and there were even louder shouts.

"Champion Lang Zhi!"

Two pairs of people led the way in front of the road and shouted in unison.

The crowd on the street suddenly became noisy, crowded forward, and there were many little ladies and scholars standing in the front, or throwing handkerchiefs and towels into the street, or shouting at the visitors, just hoping that the legendary champion Lang would take a second look.

Even if you have a little more of the treasure of Wenqu Xing!

In the eyes of all the people, first the Seven Guards of Jinwu led the way, the sound of Shao music and drums, and then, a person rode on a horse, and arrived with high spirits.

Almost instantly, the field was like water boiling oil, and the spectators competed for the first place, rushing to watch, and the cheers were like thunder.

Although there were forbidden troops blocking the road on both sides, they almost broke through the barrier formed by people and fences several times.

This is the champion to the donkey.

This is the Jinshi Horse Parade Street.

In a restaurant on the side of the street, the windows of the private rooms facing the street are wide open, and in one of them, three or two little ladies are laughing and talking.

"This time's champion is really handsome!" A young woman dressed as a woman said.

"More handsome than your husband?" A little girl with freckles on her face next to her asked.

"Don't mention it, just that face is good-looking, it's been two times, and I haven't caught a single jinshi, don't talk about him!"

"Pingniang, do you know if Zhuang Yuanlang has said goodbye? If you don't say kiss, you might as well call your father to palm your eyes and be a champion lady, which is not bad! Hee-hee. The freckled girl turned her face to the right and asked another friend.

"Forget it, this champion really doesn't like me, and he doesn't smile when he looks cold." The woman known as Ping Niang replied, her voice with a bit of sneer, very sweet.

She paused, and said: "Besides, that champion is no longer very good-looking, I heard that he has already had a wife, not only Zhuangyuanlang, but this time it seems that there are not a few people left in the first class who have not said kiss!" Thanks to this list, there are many talents, and there are many good ones, but they are all preempted by others! ”

"You're so picky! I don't feel cold when I look at it! As long as it looks good, I like it very much, it's cold outside, it's good not to be cold at home! Besides, even if it's colder, it's enough to have a face to take advantage of. ”

The little ladies giggled and laughed, watching the Jinshi parade through the street while discussing their marriage.

In the middle of the royal street, Gu Yanzhang rode on a horse, listening to the noise around him one after another, applauding, and cheering, but he had no intention of blending in.

He couldn't help but look for a row of restaurants on the left, and finally found the one he was looking for, and hurriedly raised his head and looked at the row of open windows above.

It should be the sixth room.

He counted the windows eagerly.

When I got to the sixth, I saw that in the open window, a person was leaning out a little bit and waving his hand at himself.

It's Qingling!

She was smiling at herself.

Gu Yanzhang seemed to have a big stone in his heart fell to the ground, and his whole heart finally settled down, only looking at that person fixedly, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

With his attentive gaze and gentle smile, the private room just now, as if it had exploded, burst into a commotion, and the woman's screams and whirring sounded.

The little girl with freckles on her face exclaimed, "Look! Look!! Is that the champion Lang seen it! Who is he looking at?! Ping Niang, Ping Niang, is he looking at you!! No! He seems to be looking at me!! ”

Pingniang couldn't care about her anymore, blocking the body of the freckled little girl, only caring about her own poking her head out of the windowsill, stamping her feet and saying, "No, he's looking at me, he's smiling at me!" Oh, my God! I'm running out of breath! ”

The champion parade street, what a glory, only the Son of Heaven can enjoy the Seven Horses Jinwu Guards attendant guard of honor to lead the way, riding a treasure horse, wearing a green robe, taking the lead, thousands of people envy, ten thousand people actually chased.

This is the leader of the text! Be a fad!

said that it was not right, just for the sake of face.

And this champion who was contended for by thousands of people, originally had a cold face, but now he suddenly smiled at himself, like a spring blossom, such a contrast, how to make these teenage girls self-controlled.

"You just said you didn't like it!"

"Just talk! Besides, I just said I didn't like it, and I can't like it now?! ”

Not to mention the private room, a few little girls were excited to laugh at this one, on the street, waiting for Gu Yanzhang to walk by, the jinshi were lined up in pairs, and the heads of the horses were controlled, and they also followed behind, all of them were high-spirited, holding their heads high, and the horses in green clothes were angry, which attracted countless people to watch.

The purpose of the cross-horse parade is to let the people of the world know the glory of the Jinshi, so that the new scholars can feel the preferential treatment from the Son of Heaven, know what is the "protégé of the Son of Heaven", what is "the deep gentleman's kindness cannot be repaid, the wind is strong and the grass is strong", and what is "a section of loyalty and filial piety, standing upright and disobedient", so that they know to be grateful to Dade, repay with their lives, and then attract all the talents in the world to enter the subject examination.

It is from Xuande Gate to Jinmingchi, in fact, there are only less than ten miles, along the way to open the way with drum music, honor guard lined up, and it took half a day to finish.

At noon, after almost missing the auspicious time, the Jinshi procession led by Gu Yanzhang finally arrived at Qionglin Garden by the Golden Water Pool.

The Qionglin banquet was originally called the Wenxi banquet, whenever the new branch is released, the Son of Heaven will have a banquet, because the banquet is set up in the Qionglin Garden many times, it is also known as the Qionglin banquet.

In addition to the new science and technology scholars, there were also officials of the two systems and three pavilions, Cheng Lang and the two provinces.

Gu Yanzhang led everyone to perform the ceremony, and after a series of complicated rituals were completed, they each sat down, and everyone began to walk around and communicate with each other.

As the champion, he naturally had to socialize a lot, and after drinking glass after glass of water and wine, Gu Yanzhang's face was also dyed with a thin layer of redness.

He was about to sit down and eat a few bites of food, suppressing his wine, when he didn't want to suddenly a few green-robed jinshi came over.

"Yanzhang!" The one who took the lead laughed.

It is Yang Yi Mansion.

The first few people in the back are also very familiar, they are all students in Jixian Qingming Academy, and they all won the Jinshi this time.

Gu Yanzhang had to fill the wine glass by the little official who served the wine, and drank a wine with everyone.

After the drink, everyone stood still and began to speak.

"After the Qionglin banquet, we have to wait for the official to send you, what does Yanzhang have in mind?"

Yang Yifu asked with a smile.
