On the day of the palace test, Li Qingling got up early again and personally made breakfast for Liu Zhimo.

Liu Zhimo ate the love breakfast made by Li Qingling, and changed into the robe that Li Qingling made for him, and then got into the carriage with confidence.

got off the bus outside the palace, and he followed his little father-in-law into the palace without squinting.

I don't know how long I walked, until I stopped outside the Jinluan Palace.

Liu Zhimo stood in place for a while, and other candidates came over one after another.

"Brother, you're early." A candidate greeted Liu Zhimo.

Liu Zhimo smiled at him and said, he just came.

"My name is Shen Changsheng, what about you, brother?"

"Willow Mo."

When the words fell, Shen Changsheng's eyes widened, and he sighed, "I didn't expect Brother Liu to be that Huiyuan." He looked at Liu Zhimo with envy, "Brother Liu makes the little brother admire and admire..."

Liu Zhimo was a little embarrassed by Shen Changsheng's praise, and he hurriedly smiled and said that he didn't dare to be.

Just when the two were chatting, they were brutally ruined.

"Snort... Isn't it Huiyuan? What's the big deal? ”

Liu Zhimo looked up and saw a candidate wearing a white robe and holding a folding fan in his hand, fanning it gently.

He ignores this kind of person who says that grapes are sour when he can't eat grapes.

"Brother Liu, he is Lai Guangzhong, yes..."Shen Changsheng said what he knew, hoping to let Liu Zhimo have a bottom in his heart, not to offend people without knowing it.

Liu Zhimo listened, nodded in understanding, it turned out that Lai Guangzhong was the younger brother of Concubine Xian, no wonder he was so arrogant, didn't he rely on his sister to be favored?

"Thank you, Brother Shen."

"Hey, you're welcome." Shen Changsheng waved his hand absently, he just felt that Liu Zhimo was quite suitable for his eyes, so he couldn't help but say a few more words.

Just because of this, Liu Zhimo felt that Shen Changsheng could make friends.

Seeing that Liu Zhimo ignored him, Lai Guang was annoyed for a while, he closed the fan with a snort, strode in front of Liu Zhimo, and asked Liu Zhimo arrogantly, why didn't he answer his words?

Liu Zhimo looked at him suspiciously and asked him when he was talking to him?

He's not a masochist, others are scolding him like this, and he's still rushing to answer his words?

"You..."Lai Guangzhong stretched out his finger and pointed at Liu Zhimo, "You wait for me." ”

Liu Zhimo's face sank, and with a snap, he knocked off Lai Guangzhong's fingers, and said coldly, "Brother Tai, is this your family's tutor?" "Anyone who has a bit of a tutor will not point a finger at someone's nose at will.

"Do you know who I am?" He had never been treated like this, and he was even more annoyed in the Lai Guang Center.

"I don't know." Liu Zhimo replied very neatly, "This brother, are you sure you want to quarrel with me here?" Well? ”

This is outside the Jinluan Palace, and any small action will be known by the emperor, and he doesn't want to leave a bad impression on the emperor.

Lai Guangzhong was not completely dizzy, he glared at Liu Zhimo fiercely before turning around and retreating a few steps.

He must talk to his sister and let her call the shots for him.

If you dare to offend him, you have to bear the consequences of offending him.

Shen Changsheng couldn't help but chuckle, he gave Liu Zhimo a thumbs up, he didn't expect that Liu Zhimo was not only knowledgeable, but also eloquent, and Lai Guangzhong's face turned blue with anger in three or two sentences, and he was helpless.

But...

"Brother Liu, you'd better avoid Lai Guangzhong when you meet him in the future, he is very cautious, I'm afraid it will stumble you."

"These reminders from Brother Shen." Although he was not afraid of Lai Guangzhong, he was also grateful to Shen Changsheng for reminding him.

Shen Changsheng smiled again and said politely, he had the heart to make friends with Liu Zhimo, so he changed the topic and continued to chat with him.

It wasn't until his father-in-law Takamatsu came out that the two stopped.

Gao Song glanced at the candidates who had quieted down, and said in a shrill voice, "Everyone, please come in with us." ”

The group followed Gao Song into the Jinluan Palace, knelt on the ground and shouted, Long live the emperor, long live, long live.

"Flat body..."The emperor glanced at the candidates below, his eyes stayed on Liu Zhimo's body for a while, and then he said some words of encouragement, and when the candidates were very excited, he directly threw out today's highlights, "I have a puzzle, and I hope you can help me solve it." ”

He glanced at the candidates again, "Regarding the field system, is it better to keep it or to innovate?" He had always wanted to implement a new land system, but the courtiers were mostly opposed to it, and he couldn't force it.

So this time in the palace examination, he wanted to see what the candidates thought?

This question was discussed with him by Shigong, Liu Zhimo thought about it for a while, picked up the pen, and began to write.

Lai Guangzhong, who happened to be sitting next to him, saw that Liu Zhimo had put down his pen so quickly, he was a little anxious, but the more anxious he was, the more thoughtless he became.

Among so many candidates, the emperor saw at a glance that only Liu Zhimo lowered his head and put down the pen, he nodded with satisfaction, and looked forward to what kind of surprise Liu Zhimo would bring him?

The time of the palace exam was an hour, and after Liu Zhimo wrote it, he checked it carefully again, and felt that there was no problem, so he handed in his answer sheet.

After handing in the papers, he went to the outside of the Jinluan Hall and waited.

The other candidates saw that Liu Zhimo's movements were so fast, their psychological pressure was even greater, and their writing was more rapid, so they were afraid that they would miss the time.

After reading Liu Zhimo's papers, if it weren't for the Jinluan Palace, he was afraid that it would affect other candidates, and he would have to applaud.

His nephew answered so well that he deserved to be the son of his junior brother.

Such talents are exactly what the imperial court needs.

With this batch of fresh blood infusion, he will not have to be so constrained, and it will be much easier to implement the new field system.

To put it bluntly, the imperial examination every three years is to allow the emperor to select new talents and become his help.

You must know that the old courtiers are generally assigned, and they will not be so loyal to the emperor's side, and their selfishness will be relatively large.

The new courtiers are different, they are promoted by the emperor, and they are easy to stand on the emperor's side.

"Brother Liu, what is your answer to the system of fields?" Shen Changsheng handed over the paper, and after walking out, he turned to Liu Zhimo's side and asked him in a low voice.

Liu Zhimo glanced at it, and Shen Changsheng, who was full of curiosity, told him frankly.

Hearing this, Shen Changsheng was annoyed and envious in his heart, why didn't he think of it?

"Brother Liu, you deserve to be Huiyuan, I really admire you very much." Some people are really naturally intelligent and can't compare.

"Brother Shen, don't forget Fei Bo, you are also not bad." Shen Changsheng ranked in the top seven in Chunqiu, which also proved that he was very good.

Shen Changsheng smiled, feeling that although he didn't answer as brilliant as Liu Zhimo's, it was okay, and he felt a little comforted in his heart.

"Hmph..."Lai Guangzhong walked out, and when he saw that Liu Zhimo was so happy with what Shen Guangzhong said, he snorted coldly again.

Thinking of the question he answered, I felt even more unhappy.

When he came to take the temple examination, his father told him a lot about the palace examination, but he did not tell him about the field system, so he could only play temporarily.

Not to mention that it was the emperor, even after he finished answering, he didn't feel very satisfied.

But there was not much time, and he was not allowed to overturn the answer from scratch.

I had no choice but to turn in the papers.

Shen Changsheng glanced at Lai Guangzhong and whispered to Liu Zhimo, is there a problem with Lai Guangzhong's throat? Hum around all day.

Hearing his words, the smile on Liu Zhimo's face deepened, and he said maybe!

For a person like Lai Guangzhong, he can only hehe.

may be due to the fact that the emperor is inside, Lai Guangzhong doesn't dare to do anything to Liu Zhimo, so he can only constantly scan Liu Zhimo with his eyes, eager to kill Liu Zhimo with his eyes.

Liu Zhimo didn't pay attention to his eyes, and continued to chat with Shen Changsheng.

After a long time, Lai Guangzhong felt bored, so he withdrew his gaze and looked away.

Liu Zhimo waited outside for a quarter of an hour before being called in again.

The emperor specially named Liu Zhimo's name, praised him, and personally named him the champion.

"Thank you, long live the emperor, long live the emperor."

"Flat." The emperor glanced at Liu Zhimo lovingly, and his eyes turned to Shen Changsheng again, pointing at him as a flower.

When Shen Changsheng heard this, he was stunned for a moment before thanking him, he didn't expect him to become a tanhua, this was really an unexpected joy.

As soon as he heard the emperor's words, he knelt down with a plop and shouted loudly, long live the emperor.

His move made the emperor laugh and said flat.

Then the emperor said the rankings of the other candidates before retiring from the court.

When the good news that Liu Zhimo became the champion reported to the Xue Mansion, Li Qingling and the others jumped up happily.

Old man Liu crossed his waist and laughed, "It is worthy of being my grandson, as smart as me." ”

"My apprentice is as smart as his father." Mr. Luo slowly broke Old Man Liu's cold water.

Old man Liu didn't care, and nodded thoughtfully and said, yes, as smart as his father.

It's a pity that his youngest son didn't see his grandson so promising.

Thinking of this, Old Man Liu's eyes turned red.

"Today is a day of great joy, what are you pretentious?" Mr. Luo glanced at Old Man Liu wordlessly, knowing that he must have remembered his little disciple, "Let's go, let's go out to see Zhimo Street." Fortunately, he had the foresight to set up an excellent wing room in Fengmanlou, where the little apprentice Sun passed by on a tall horse, and could see it very clearly there.

The old man patted Old Man Liu on the shoulder twice and comforted him silently.

Old man Liu wiped the corners of his eyes and said loudly, go, watch my grandson go to the street.

The group ran to Fengmanlou in such a hurry, where they waited for Liu Zhimo.
