On May 21, the main hall was passed on.

In front of the Fengtian Palace, all the civil and military officials stood up, and the new scholars who were waiting outside the Chengtian Gate walked into the Forbidden City again with excitement.

At this moment, they don't know their ranking.

The emperor mourned the emperor for the 27th day of the Daxing Emperor, and the ritual music can be set up at the same time.

After the five hundred and three bows, the officials of the Honglu Temple in the Fengtian Temple began to read out the edict.

Then came the popular roll call, starting with the champion.

"The first in the first class, Jiangxi Lead Mountain Fei Maozhong!"

"The first in the first class, Jiangxi Lead Mountain Fei Maozhong!"

"The first in the first class, Jiangxi Lead Mountain Fei Maozhong!"

From inside the hall to outside the hall, the officials of Honglu Temple relayed this result to the outside of the hall in turn, and reached the ears of the new science and technology scholars next to Dan Xi.

Fei Maozhong was not surprised to hear his name, but his eyes were full of shock and even fear.

Why him? With his answer sheet, how can he be the champion? How many people will be carefully evaluated on the champion's answer sheet?

Fei Maozhong knew that his answer this time was definitely unworthy, so there was only one reason: because Fei Hong was going to return to the court.

Before he entered Beijing, he was about to be caught in an accusation: how could his nephew He De become the champion? Was it deliberately hand-picked by the Son of Heaven, or did the ministers wear small shoes for Fei Hong? What's the idea behind it?

Unable to allow Fei Hong to be in a daze, the officials of Honglu Temple had already come and said with a smile: "Champion Gong, enter the palace to meet Xie En." ”

Fei Mao was restless, and he didn't dare to take a good look at the emperor's appearance.

Zhu Houxi smiled: It doesn't matter, I will make a move.

The champion and the top three are the same jinshi and even the lifter, and there is not much difference in Zhu Houxi's eyes.

A knock on the door is just the first step.

"The first and second, Guangdong Xiangshan Huang Zuo!"

"The first and second, Guangdong Xiangshan Huang Zuo!"

"The first and second, Guangdong Xiangshan Huang Zuo!"

The voice came out, and Huang Zuo's eyes were about to pop out.

How can it be?

He also felt that he was unworthy, could it be that Liang Chu was helping him? Don't your majesty think he is a careless man?

Two days ago, he was still very sad, and when he entered the hall to pay a visit, he remembered the bumpy road, and his eyes were moist.

"You're Huang Zuo?"

Very surprised, the emperor actually opened his mouth to ask such a question.

“…… The minister is, and the minister also wants to thank His Majesty's quasi-ministers for their kindness in taking the exam, the minister...... He must be careful and careful. ”

He is not worried about his talent being picked upon, after all, there is a possibility of winning three yuan.

He just didn't have enough faith in his own way.

Is it transshipment now?

"It's about being careful."

Hearing the emperor's words with a smile, Huang Zuo was extremely embarrassed.

The name of carelessness is really in the emperor's heart.

Outside the hall, next to the Dan Fan, the remaining new science and technology scholars were all looking forward to it.

There is only one Tanhualang left in Sanding Jia.

After that, only the first names of the second and third grades will be pronounced by their names, and the rest of them are just a "wait" after the name.

"First class third, Zhejiang Yongjia Zhang Xuan!"

"First class third, Zhejiang Yongjia Zhang Xuan!"

"First class third, Zhejiang Yongjia Zhang Xuan!"

Zhang Xuan clenched his fists hard, feeling uncontrollable.

First class third!

He was born in an ordinary good family, not a noble family, and his family was not wealthy.

Among the same department, he is not like Fei Maozhong, who has an uncle who has been a cabinet minister, and Huang Zuo, who has a fellow villager who has been the first assistant and is still in the cabinet.

Who recognized his talent and allowed him to be among the top three tripods?

Zhang Xuan didn't know, but he knew that these three tripods had to pass the emperor's pass.

After bowing down in front of the palace, the forty-seven-year-old Zhang Xuan's forehead touched the ground and said: "Your Majesty has appointed the first and third, and you have the courage to ask for a favor." ”

He wanted to be bold, even if he was being watched by so many people.

If Your Majesty really has the intention of changing the law, you should appreciate the courage and courage, right?

Zhu Houxi laughed: "Oh? What grace? ”

"Since he is a protégé of the Son of Heaven, I ask Your Majesty to give him another name to avoid the name of the Son of Heaven."

When he said this, Wang Qiong smiled and said, "You should really avoid this secret, and the ministers are willing to ask for it." ”

Zhang Xuan understood, he was ordered into the first-class volume by Wang Qiong.

But Wang Qiong has been attacked, and he can actually snatch a place in the top three tripods from Yang Tinghe's hands?

Then the emperor still adjusted the order!

After thinking about it, Zhu Houxi nodded, as if without thinking: "Your strategy is read to make all the readers of the paper both convinced and respectful." That being the case...... Pen and ink waiting! ”

Zhang Xuan raised his head expectantly and saw the young man who was bowing his head and waving.

The heroic spirit between his eyebrows, his calm demeanor, and his restrained eyes all fell into his eyes.

At the age of forty-seven, he will neither be rebellious nor timid, so he dares to look up at the emperor well.

"Zhang Fujing, the word Maogong, how is it?" Zhu Houxi looked up and looked at him with a smile.

"Minister Zhang Fujing, thank Your Majesty for the name and word!" Zhang Xuan excitedly thanked Sheng'en.

Fu, convinced; Respectfully, discreetly. Mao, Caide; Respectfully, respectfully.

Not only did he have a new name, but he was also given a word.

Looking at the four big characters of the imperial book, Tanhualang's limelight also overshadowed the champion and the list.

But who made the family also called cong, and dared to ask the emperor to give a name on this occasion?

Liang Chu looked at Yang Tinghe, who was indifferent and indifferent, again, and then at the emperor, who was smiling gently.

What a festive day, why do you always feel that there will be a new turmoil?

Tomorrow, the Ministry of Rites will give a banquet, the day after tomorrow to enter the palace to thank the court for the crown belt, and then the day after tomorrow to pay homage to the Confucian Temple and erect a monument, and the days of the success of the new science and technology scholars have begun.

But the courtiers with clear brains knew that they were just newcomers who had just wobbled around this stage and were about to retreat to the outermost stage.

His Majesty's policy was also asked to all the officials in Beijing.

I'm afraid this is a palace test with a fall!

Fei Hong, who is "entering Beijing to catch the exam", can he "be the champion" like his nephew?

It's a full moon on the throne.

There was a noise in the silence outside the Qianqing Palace: no one dared to make a loud noise during the work of rebuilding the Rijing Gate, but it was a construction site after all.

No one needs to rush them, everyone just wants to get the job done quickly. Working under the emperor's nose is too stressful.

Isn't there a saying? Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, they are repairing the tiger's nest.

After the feast on the 22nd, Zhu Houxi returned here, followed by Huang Jin, Yan Song, and Liu Long.

The people who were busy at the Nichisei Gate suddenly stopped, and they all knelt down in place.

"Go to the Middle Circle Hall." Zhu Houxi glanced over there, "It's hot, prepare more water for them." ”

"Slave and maid command." Gao Zhong, who was guarding the overseer, replied in a low voice, and then looked at Huang Jin's back with envy.

"Your Majesty is forgiving, benevolent and loves the people." Yan Song smiled and slapped a sycophant, and the group went directly to the square hall between Qianqing Palace and Kunning Palace.

In the future, it will be famous for the Jiaotai Palace, and it is now called the Zhongyuan Palace, which was originally the place where the queen received foreign women on certain ceremonial occasions, and it also had a function: to store the treasure seals of the Son of Heaven.

Now there is no current queen in the palace, and the Heart Cultivation Hall has not yet been rebuilt, so Zhu Houxi temporarily used this place as a study.

Because the Qianqing Palace's warm pavilion is not big enough.

Yan Song and Liu Long were the first ministers to know about the furnishings here.

In the main hall, a large map of the Ming Dynasty is hung.

In front of the throne, three chairs were placed in front of the imperial table, and there were eighteen in total, and there was a small desk in front of each of them.

Except for the row at the door, the other two rows of chairs were followed by bookshelves, which were already piled with books.

Since yesterday's ceremony, all the candidates' strategies have been sent here.

Zhu Houxi still looked at everyone's.

Yan Song and Liu Long didn't need to be instructed today, they found a chair on each side in front of the imperial case and sat on it to continue to help the emperor refine the arguments and arguments in the examination papers.

To put it simply: cut out the nonsense and extract the main points.

What is this day?

Since they were able to serve here on the eighth day of the fifth month, they have always been doing the work of secretaries.

Unless the emperor has questions, and what he asks is often specific things.

Yan Song would not persuade the emperor to learn more about the Four Books and Five Classics, read history and talk about history, and Liu Long was even more prepared not to make mistakes and not to take the lead.

But there is one thing that Yan Song doesn't understand: there are eighteen chairs here, what is the exquisiteness?

I think of the imperial study of the Heart Nourishing Palace, which is being planned to be renovated...... Isn't this the Imperial Study now?

He didn't dare to ask more, but he knew that the emperor would never be able to set up a full eighteen chairs here just for the sake of the Japanese talk!
