Seven days later, Qianchang Palace, Tian'an Palace. At this moment, there are sixty Confucian disciples standing neatly in the square of Tian'an Temple, all of them are dressed in moon-white cardigans and wearing Confucian temples, and they are all in good spirits. Looking at the Tian'an Temple in front of me, which is located on the three floors and five zhang high steps, a deep awe from the heart arises spontaneously. This is the center of the Great Qian Empire, the residence of the Son of Heaven. Every building in it makes people feel that it is not ordinary at all, and the majesty of the heavenly home is always in the face, which is intimidating.

It didn't take much effort for a eunuch to set up tables and chairs in front of each student, and then the old eunuch Chen Zhong appeared at the top of the imperial stairs wearing a big red python robe. I only heard him pull the iconic male duck and say: "The emperor has arrived, kneel to welcome!" The students were shocked when they heard this, and then they knelt down neatly, and no one dared to look up at the scene on the imperial steps.

Immediately, I heard a voice that seemed to be far away in the sky and seemed to be close in front of me: "The third imperial examination of the Longwu Dynasty, I hope that you can show your talents to the fullest and become useful talents in my Great Qian Empire, let's start the examination." ”

Li Yunqing's words fell, and the students sat on their chairs in a proper manner and began the exam. Each of them was very excited in their hearts, whether they were in high school or not, they were all real protégés of the Son of Heaven. Although many of them did not look up at the top of the imperial staircase, they knew that knowing that the emperor was watching them from the top of the imperial staircase, it was equivalent to their proctoring.

Li Yunqing was sitting on the luxurious dragon chair on the high imperial step at this moment, his eyes were like torches, and he would take all the candidates into his eyes at a glance. These students can be described as the elite of the elite, even if they are not in high school, they will definitely have their own place in the future. After all, they are all people from the imperial court, these are all Li Yunqing's treasures, and they are the hope of Daqian's future. His gaze finally fell on the body of the eldest grandson Hongdao, smiled slightly, turned his head to Wang Changling, who was standing not far away, and said, "Aiqing, that is your successor in the future." Now take a good look at him, what do you think of him? "Although I have seen it before when I took the Gongyuan exam, I don't have any too intuitive feelings. Now that Wang Changling has reviewed the volume of the eldest grandson Hongdao, in Li Yunqing's opinion, there should be some different evaluations.

Wang Changling stroked his snow-white beard when he heard this, and nodded again and again: "After reading his scroll, the old man can conclude that this son has amazing talents, as long as he makes a little allocation, he will definitely be able to do better than the old minister." Giving the burden to such a person, the old minister is completely relieved. ”

Li Yunqing shook his head when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "Although this son is a capable person selected by me, human nature has always been the most elusive thing, not to mention that human nature is fickle. So there are still variables in everything, whether he can be as loyal to the monarch as Aiqing and the country, everything can happen until the day he enters the ground. Li Yunqing paused everywhere, and then said: "Aiqing retired after the palace test, but I never intended to let the three of you pick on you. The affairs of this court are indispensable to the three Aiqing, so my will to crown the three as the Taishi will be sent to your respective mansions in the near future, you must understand my thoughts, understand? ”

Wang Changling was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said: "The old minister obeys the order, and the old minister and the others originally wanted to do their best for the big cadres and died, but they are inevitably sleepy when they are old, and standing on the top of the main hall all day long is really physically exhausted, and there is still an obstacle to the view, so they told the old man to return to his hometown." The emperor is sympathetic to us, and we will be in our respective mansions in the future for consultation, and the emperor can rest assured. ”

Half an hour later, the three of them handed in the papers. Li Yunqing did not leave just yet, but waited for the last candidate to hand in the papers, and then got up and entered the Tian'an Hall behind him. In the next two days, Wang Changling and the three of them will evaluate the papers of 60 candidates, and select the top 20 and the second 30. The most important thing is naturally the top three of the head, the champion, the list eye, and the flower. And Li Yunqing will stop the court meeting in the past two days, and review the folds in the East Warm Pavilion of the Tian'an Hall until the results come out. During these two days, sixty students will visit the Qianchang Palace under the guidance of the eunuchs, and of course everything they can see is a place to see. The place where the harem concubines live naturally will not let them step into half a step, and if they dare to go, it will immediately be the sin of the three clans.

Although Wang Jingzhi can't be regarded as growing up in the palace, because of Wang Changling, he can always enter the palace several times a year, and over time he is also very familiar with this big interior. The three of them turned to the Qinzheng Gate of the Qinzheng Palace, and Wang Jingzhi swaggered over. Jin Wuwei naturally stopped him and asked with a smile: "I heard that Wang Gongzi participated in the palace examination today, I don't know how the exam went?" "These Jin Wuwei are extremely familiar with them.

Wang Jingzhi smiled slightly when he heard this, and Jin Wuwei arched his hand and said, "Thank you generals for your love." The younger brother said that he would often walk through here in the future, and stood on the palace of diligence to share his worries and relieve his worries for His Majesty the Emperor. We'll be able to see each other more often in the future, hehe. "He has been in and out here since he was a child, and many times he is waiting for Wang Changling to go to court, so he is naturally familiar with these Jin Wuwei.

Originally, according to reason, even Wang Changling's family members were not qualified to enter and leave the Forbidden Palace at will. It's just that Emperor Taizu gave him a grace, just because once again the little Wang Jingzhi hid in his grandfather's sedan chair and entered the palace, and was seen by Emperor Taizu when he was playing in the palace. At that time, the soldiers were about to drive the child away, but the methods were a little rough, and they were stopped by Emperor Taizu.

Emperor Taizu inquired about the little guy and learned that this was Wang Changling's grandson. It happened that Wang Changling saw this scene and hurriedly knelt down to apologize. Emperor Taizu did not condemn him, but gave Wang Jingzhi a grace and allowed him to come to the palace to pick up his grandfather from the court. Since then, Wang Jing has been in and out of the palace every now and then, and after a long time, these Jin Wuwei have become familiar with this little guy.

One of the soldiers in Jin Wuwei listened to Wang Jingzhi's words, and said with a smile: "Wang Xiaogongzi is a frequent visitor in this palace even if he does not participate in the imperial examination, and Emperor Taizongren and the current saint have not deprived you of the right to enter and leave the palace." After that, he looked at the hall behind him, and then said, "You came today to see the Qinzheng Palace?" The soldiers were extremely friendly and polite to Wang Jingzhi.

Wang Jingzhi looked at the eldest grandson Hongdao and Xu Tianming, and whispered a few words in the ear of Jin Wuwei. That Jin Wuwei looked at the eyes of the eldest grandson and the two of them, and then arched his hand to the eldest grandson and the two and said, "I see, the three sons, please come in quickly." It's just that the things in this Qinzheng Palace can't be touched at will, otherwise the Long Live Lord blames the head of the last general...... "Some words naturally don't need to be so clear in life, if anyone can enter the Qinzheng Palace, then it is not the Qinzheng Palace."

Wang Jingzhi naturally knew the rules, so he nodded in agreement. The three of them just wanted to enter the Qinzheng Gate, but another Jin Wuwei stopped the three of them, and said in a low voice: "The three of you must not be reckless, the queen mother is in the Dongnuan Pavilion of the Qinzheng Palace at this moment." ”
