Chapter 182: The Third Person of the Dynasty

This middle-aged man spoke very devotedly, from imitating Emperor Jingfeng's tone to describing the scene at that time, with a full voice and emotion, and a frustration, which made people involuntarily attracted.

Gradually, the lobby on the first floor of the hall fell silent, and everyone held their breath and stared at the middle-aged man's movements without blinking. Until his last word fell, everyone seemed to have not reacted, and there was silence for a while.

The middle-aged man looked proud, subconsciously straightened his chest in the eyes of everyone, and said, "How is it, now you know how Gu Yunji's Huiyuan came from, right?" ”

Someone was the first to react and sneered: "Okay, you can blow it!" Let's not say whether this is true or not, even if it is true, where did you know that? I even remember what His Majesty said clearly, could it be that you were hiding under the table and eavesdropping? I see, you made it up! ”

The middle-aged man immediately quit: "What do you call me making up?" That's the truth! The imperial examination is very important, and the admission list for the examination is determined after all the examiners have discussed, although His Majesty personally changed it, but the list has suddenly changed, so the Ministry of Rites Shangshu can't explain to other examiners when he goes back? You explain it to me, I explain it to you, this back and forth, the matter will naturally spread, and I know that it is not unusual. ”

Some people were skeptical: "What about what Your Majesty said?" How do you know so clearly? ”

"This ......" the middle-aged man choked, a little lacking in confidence, "I, I admit, this is a bit of a fuel and vinegar...... I'm also reasonably imagining it based on the facts......"

Seeing that everyone pouted, as if they were disdainful, the middle-aged man hurriedly added: "Although some of the words are made up by myself, I believe that they should be close to His Majesty's original words." Besides, if it weren't for His Majesty's royal pen, who do you think would have the courage to record the examiner's relatives as Huiyuan? ”

This was very convincing, and everyone nodded secretly when they heard this, and most of the doubts in their hearts were dispelled.

Someone muttered: "Speaking of which, there are so many candidates for this exam, and there are only three hundred tributes admitted, how did Your Majesty remember Gu Yunji alone?" Not only did I read his papers, but I also knew his level well, which was really surprising. ”

The white-clothed gentleman from earlier answered: "Actually, this is easy to explain. Two years ago, in the troubles of the displaced people in the south of the Yangtze River, Gu Yunji, as the representative of the students of Luxi Academy, made the first contribution in the process of assisting the Hangzhou government to resettle the displaced people, and it is not surprising that His Majesty remembers his name. ”

When he said this, the black-clothed man suddenly remembered something, and said, "Do you remember that Your Majesty once cruised the Yellow River four years ago?" After patrolling the Yellow River, His Majesty went south, and when he passed by Hangzhou Mansion, he also went to Luxi Academy, which is said to be to meet Gu Yunji. ”

Everyone's eyes widened: "Really? In this way, His Majesty has already begun to pay attention to Yunji? ”

The white-clothed scholar said: "If this is the case, then Gu Yunji's ranking in the palace test should not be low." Gu Yunji is already talented, and His Majesty is partial to him, since he can be specially recruited as a huiyuan in the examination, it is not impossible for the palace examination to be directly named the champion. ”

"I remember that Gu Yunji was originally the township test solution of Songjiang Mansion, right?" It seemed that he thought it was too incredible, and this person was a little difficult to speak, "The township test will solve the yuan, and the will test the yuan, if the palace test is the champion again...... That Gu Yunji, but it is even three yuan. ”

"Lianzhong Sanyuan" can be described as the pinnacle honor of the imperial examination scholars, and it is an achievement that countless people dream of achieving, but it is extremely difficult to achieve, and it is truly "rare in a hundred years".

The shock brought by this word was too great, and everyone swallowed their saliva involuntarily, and they couldn't speak for a while.

Someone muttered in distraction: "This dynasty has been founded for more than a hundred years, and so far there are only two people in the three elements of the company, one in the Taizu period, and the other in the Xiaozong period. And both of them had smooth careers, and finally entered the cabinet to worship the prime minister, and became famous. Could it be that Gu Yunji is about to become the third person in this dynasty after the two of them? ”

Although it was a topic caused by himself, after listening to it like this, the middle-aged man couldn't believe it, and said dryly: "It should be ...... Not really, right? You must know that there are many people who have passed the Xie Yuan and Hui Yuan examinations at the same time, but the vast majority of them still stop here and have not won the top prize in the palace examination, otherwise even those who have won the three yuan will not be so rare. ”

"Not necessarily." The white-clothed scholar shook his head disapprovingly, "Unlike the township examination, the champion admitted to the palace examination is the representative of the new science and technology jinshi, not only to learn well, but also to be calm and good-looking, showing the bearing of the imperial court." As far as I am concerned, which one of Gu Yunji does not meet? What's more, he is still so young, I can't say that he is really the champion of this year. ”

Everyone was silent when they heard this, and after a while, someone raised his head and looked in the direction of Gu Yunji's room, and asked for no reason: "You say, is it too late for me to go and talk to him now?" ”

While everyone was chatting unscrupulously, a food delivery worker who was moving goods stood at the kitchen door and listened to their conversation word for word.

Although this food delivery worker is not good-looking, but under the coarse linen clothes is tight muscles, and he does not look like a rickety hard worker, but like a person who has practiced martial arts all year round.

As he moved the vegetables into the kitchen, he quietly looked at them all, and when all the goods had been moved, he slowly gathered his gaze and left quietly, without attracting anyone's attention from beginning to end.

——

“…… The scholars all discussed, Gu Yunji was valued by His Majesty, not only was he appointed as Huiyuan by the imperial pen in the examination, but he was also very likely to win the first place in the palace examination in one fell swoop, becoming the third person in the dynasty to be the third person in the three yuan. ”

In the imperial study, a flying fish guard knelt on one knee and reported meticulously to Emperor Jingfeng.

Hearing the word "Lianzhong Sanyuan", Emperor Jingfeng's pen tip paused slightly, raised his eyes and glanced at him lightly, and asked, "Well, is there anything else?" ”

Feiyuwei continued: "Some people also say that Your Majesty is ostensibly valuing Gu Yunji, but in fact, he is giving favor to the Gu family, and Your Majesty's move is a precursor to the reuse of Gu Yuanhui. Under the influence of such remarks, Gu Yuanhui's mansion has been visiting the court recently, and there is an endless stream of people visiting, including many clan relatives and old ministers. ”

"Although most people claim to be the first among the children of the Gu family who are only going to congratulate them, according to their subordinates, many people have a relationship with Gu Jiapan in the name of Daohe, and some want to marry, but they are all shirked by Gu Yuanhui."

Emperor Jingfeng's eyes narrowed slightly when he heard this, and his eyes gradually turned cold, and said: "Well, I know, you go down first, if there is any new news, you can report to me at any time." ”

Flying Fish replied respectfully: "Yes." ”
