"Look, that's the champion of the current department, what a handsome little Langjun!"

In the corridor in the distance, many palace maids were excitedly probing their brains and pointing at Wei Chen, and they could vaguely hear their whispering voices.

When Wei Chen saw this scene, he just smiled, turned around and continued to congratulate each other with his peers.

Since the Tang Dynasty, there has been a fixed program after the palace examination, that is, worshipping Huangjia.

Huangjia is the yellow list that records the name of Jinshi, and worshiping Huangjia means that they are about brothers in the same year.

Historically, scientific research has been a very close relationship in the same year, and it is the norm to keep warm and support each other, especially in the same year of Jinshi.

Later, when they entered the officialdom, these fellow jinshi would also hold gatherings from time to time to connect with each other.

Although Wei Chen is young, he is the champion, and he is an unprecedented six yuan and first, and Jinke naturally defaulted to him as the leader in the same year.

These 300 new science and technology scholars come from all over the world, and their talents, knowledge, character, and political aspirations are all different, and they are only united out of the instinct of huddling together for warmth, and of course it is impossible to unconditionally only look forward to Weichen.

However, it is undeniable that Wei Chen, as the champion, naturally has great influence in this small circle in the same year of Tianyou.

This is enough for Wei Chen.

Wei Chen didn't expect to take all of these years for his own use, but he just needed them to be able to make a strong name for themselves at the right time.

Wei Chen's real henchmen are still Sheng Changbai, Wang Yaochen, and other like-minded members of Jingxi Society.

Under the corridor of the Chongzheng Palace, after Wei Chen and the others of the same year talked warmly for a while, an official from Honglu Temple came over and said with a smile: "Everyone, after changing your clothes, go up to the hall with me and thank God!" ”

Hearing this, the Jinshi hurriedly said yes, and at that moment, Wei Chen, Li Zuochang, and Cai Xuan were the three people in the lead, and Sheng Changbai led the remaining seven people to return to the palace.

Everywhere the group went, the palace maids who were still whispering just now all avoided the side of the road and bowed their heads to see them off.

The jade hall passed the gold list, and the king gave the head.

Three hundred generations of heroes, follow me to Yingzhou.

Although it was less than half an hour after leaving the Chongzheng Palace, the moment he came back and opened the bead curtain and saw the Son of Heaven on the throne, Wei Chen almost felt like a world away.

At this time, Zhao Zhen's expression was no longer as solemn as just now, and he even smiled a little, as if gossiping and said to the ministers on the left and right: "Although my champion is young, fortunately he is tall, with his shoulders and back, and he fits very well in this robe. ”

Lu Zongdai on the side said with a smile: "What Your Majesty said is very true, although Zhuang Yuanlang is the beginning of Shi Brown Yin, he has already seen the appearance of an official. ”

"Since the opening of the imperial examination of our emperor Zhou, only Li Mengjian Gong has three yuan and the first, Taizong praises his auxiliary ministers, I often admire him, and now I also have Wei Qing!"

The more Zhao Zhen looked at Wei Chen, the more satisfied he became, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, and asked loudly: "Qing is not as weak as the crown, he is already the top of the six lists, and everyone in the four seas admires Qing's talent and thoughts. ”

Wei Chen lowered his head and said: "The minister has been poor since he was a child, and he has lost everything. ”

The land is thin and the pines and cypresses are planted, and the poor children are reading, just two lines of poetry, but they express the hearts of thousands of readers in the world.

The civil officials in the Chongzheng Hall recalled the memories of their heads hanging from the cold window in the past, and they all felt the same way.

Even Han Zhang, who has always been unapologetic to Wei Chen, was emotionally touched by these two poems, and his gaze at Wei Chen seemed to have softened a little.

Han Zhang's family is poor, and he was raised by his mother since he was a child, and he has experienced countless hardships and obstacles before he has the glory of Zhu Zijia today.

It can be said that the two poems chanted by Wei Chen are simply the truest portrayal of Han Zhang's life.

"The heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds and muscles. Wei Qing is a great man in the world today, which is enough to comfort the souls of his father and mother in the sky. ”

On the throne, Zhao Zhen comforted Wei Chen softly, and then looked at Han Zhang at the bottom of the stairs: "I want to give Wei Qing a five-grade court doctor to encourage him to work hard, what does the Qing family think?" ”

Han Zhang was slightly stunned, and then bowed down and said: "Praise the champion, to show the meaning of the world's encouragement, this is Your Majesty's benevolent and virtuous move, and the minister thinks it is okay." ”

Hearing that Han Zhang didn't raise any objections, Zhao Zhen was slightly surprised, and after glancing at Han Zhang, he nodded thoughtfully, and said loudly at the moment: "Draft!" ”

After receiving the order, when the palace drafted the decree, it was not much, and then it was read out: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor said, the house of loyalty and filial piety, the court training has long been ......, and I hereby take Qin En, add a gift for the court doctor...... Qin! ”

Hearing the reading of the holy decree, Wei Chen was also pleasantly surprised, although this five-grade court doctor is a loose official, only an official position and no ministry, but for him as a new science and technology scholar, it is a great honor.

Wei Chen was about to bow down to thank him, but Zhao Zhen was still unsatisfied, and said to the chief attendant beside him: "Another pair of four treasures in Wei Qing's study, two articles in the university, a pair of wisps of gold flowers, and 100,000 money!" ”

"Jun's grace is deep!"

When the ministers in the palace saw this scene, they all sighed sincerely, it seems that Wei Chen is already in the emperor's heart.

After Wei Chen received the order of thanksgiving, he walked out of the Chongzheng Hall with the top ten in the palace examination, came to the square in front of the palace, and joined the queue of new science and technology scholars.

The three hundred new science and technology scholars standing solemnly on the square faced the Chongzheng Palace, and under the guidance of Wei Chen, they once again bowed to the throne in the hall, and the mountain shouted long live.

At this time, Huang Zhong Da Lu Qi Ming in the Chongzheng Palace, Zhao Zhen got up from the throne and handed over the Huang Bang to the first assistant Han Zhang, who took it and handed it over to Liu Tingxi, a scholar of Hanlin.

"Bestow!"

Liu Tingxi shouted, and then walked into the Chongzheng Hall with the yellow list in his hand, and walked down the steps to the square.

The crowd in front of him parted like a crackling wave, and Wei Chen was the first to turn around and follow behind Liu Tingxi, followed by the three hundred jinshi behind him in turn.

A group of people came to the Xuande Gate surrounded by the honor guard and drum music, and Tang Mi, the prefect of Kaifeng, was already waiting on the royal road in the center of the gatehouse, and the left and right were the officials of Kaifeng Mansion.

Tang Mi presented a hairpin flower to a group of new science and technology scholars, which is a golden flower made of gold wire and red and green silk ties, made by famous craftsmen in the court, and the workmanship is exquisite, and even the flower core is clearly visible.

After the hairpins of the Jinshi, a group of horsemen led the horses to the square, Tang Mi took out one of the most handsome royal horses, pulled the reins with one hand, and held the whip with the other, and came to Wei Chen's side.

"Please get on the horse!"

Wei Chen thanked him, immediately stepped on the horse stone, turned over the horse, and urged the horse to go outside the Xuande Gate, and the rest of the Jinshi also got on the horse and followed behind Wei Chen.

At the beginning was the forbidden army in charge of opening the way, followed by a team of honor guards, a team of advocates to follow, followed by three hundred new science and technology scholars led by Wei Chen, and then hundreds of knights in charge of guarding.

The team of thousands of people opened out of the Xuande Gate, went south along the imperial road, turned westward in front of the state bridge, went out of Xinzheng Gate, and arrived at Jinming Pond outside the city, and the destination of this trip, Qionglin Garden, was on the bank of Jinming Pond.

At this time, outside the imperial city, there was already a sea of people. Bianjing City is empty today, and men, women and children are rushing to the streets to pay homage to the demeanor of the new science and technology scholars.

This way, it is the royal street boasting official.
