Fusang Dynasty, the capital of Luojing, in the palace.

The palace examination has just come to an end, outside the Haoyang Palace, gathered this group of many tributes who stood out from the examination, they are all young talents from all over the world, including some scholars and celebrities, and there are also young heroes under the princely generals.

Among these people, there was a scholar, dressed and talkative, different from the sons of the family who were dressed in fine clothes around him.

The person's name is Yan Wenqing, and on the way to Beijing to catch the exam, he was once stopped outside the examination room because of the rain that soaked the paperwork.

Fortunately, Liu Yuanlang, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites at that time, because one of his students also participated in the examination that day, Liu Yuanlang came to the examination room of the Gongyuan Academy and sat as the chief examiner.

After Liu Yuanlang knew that Yan Wenqing could not enter the examination room due to documents, he made an exception and let Yan Wenqing enter the examination room to participate in the examination.

Yan Wenqing is really talented, he will be unbeatable in the test, and even overwhelm the personal student of Liu Yuanlang, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and his grades are high. Then, several people successfully entered the palace examination, and the palace examination was held in the Haoyang Hall of the Fuso Imperial Palace.

At this moment, the hall exam is over, and the examiners are cross-marking papers in the Haoyang Palace.

Several young talents outside the palace actually have a wide range of personal relationships with each other, because of some relationships between their fathers or ancestors, even if they have never met with each other, they have exchanged letters before, or have heard of each other.

Therefore, those young scholars who are confident are touting each other and talking about each other, as if they have successfully achieved excellent results in the palace examination, just waiting for the ceremony after the dust has settled.

At the ceremony, His Majesty the Emperor Fuso will personally announce the ranking of Jinshi.

The first three people, called the champion, the eye of the list and the flower, give the Jinshi and the first, the second class a number of people, give the Jinshi background, the third class a number of people, give the same Jinshi background. The first place in the second and third grades is called Chuanyu. After the ceremony, the new jinshi participated in the court examination in the Baohe Palace. The examination papers of the dynasty are divided into three classes, the first class is called Chaoyuan.

The first three Jinshi were conferred immediately after the palace examination, and the champion was awarded the Hanlin Academy for revision, and the Bangyan and Tanhua were awarded for the compilation of the Hanlin Academy; other Jinshi, according to the ranking of the palace examination and the court examination, they will also be awarded several official positions ranging from the seventh rank to the ninth grade.

To put it simply, the so-called "once famous and known to the world" by the scholar is nothing more than the announcement of the results of the palace examination and the conferral of the ceremony.

It can even be said that the young people who are talking outside the Haoyang Hall are indeed the civil officials of the new era of the Fusang Dynasty.

They are about to take over Fusang in the new era from the hands of the former officials of the previous generation, and with the pen and ink in their chests, they will add a strong stroke to the country of the Fusang Dynasty.

This is the best opportunity for readers to write their own personal chapters.

Ten years of hard study, once famous. They were able to stand here, and they had trampled on countless scholars who had failed in the imperial examinations.

There have been many people speculating about the candidates for champions, lists, and flowers.

Some young talents who have been famous for a long time and have written a lot of poems have been praised by the readers around them, and they all say that they must be in high school, and please take care of them in the future. At this moment, they will pretend to be humble and respond, where and where, please give more advice in the future.

Outside the Haoran Palace, everyone is a "colleague".

However, Yan Wenqing was different from those other young people, he was plainly dressed and polite, but he just stood quietly in a corner outside the Haoyang Palace, staring at the scene in the palace.

Everyone reveled, and one was silent.

Yan Wenqing never thought that one day, he would be able to come to the Fusang Palace and see "the golden and jade corridor, the glazed roof, the green tiles and red walls." ".

Yan Wenqing wanted to reach out and gently put his hand on the jade railing to touch what the "jade fence" was.

But as soon as he stretched out his hand, he retracted his hand back into his sleeve.

At this moment, the door of the Haoyang Hall was gently opened.

There were several examiners out of it, one of whom was Liu Yuanlang, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and in addition, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites of the Fusang Dynasty and the Ministry of Rites Langzhong were also among them.

"Please all the tributes, enter the palace to listen to the announcement, Your Majesty will personally announce the results of the palace examination, and immediately confer the title after the ceremony!"

Outside the hall, there was an orderly queue to enter the Haoyang Palace.

After a stick of incense, Emperor Fusang Palace Jinghuan came in person, and the palace was accompanied by the princess.

A Haoyang Palace, silent, needles can be heard.

Fusang Emperor Gong Jinghuan sat in a high position, condescending.

The eunuch beside him held the holy decree in his hand and bent down to serve aside.

Gong Jinghuan gently spread his hand, and the eunuch immediately presented the holy decree with both hands and handed it to His Majesty the Emperor.

The Fusang Emperor slowly got up and opened the holy decree, and the hearts of everyone in the hall were in their throats, and they were very excited.

They knew that in the mouth of His Majesty, everyone's names would inevitably be read, but they would be ranked according to the results of the palace examination, and the size of the official position would be different, and if their name could appear in the top position, it would mean that the bigger the official, and all the scholars were looking forward to it.

Yan Wenqing was also excited, before leaving from her hometown, her mother sold out almost everything that could be sold in the family in order to make up for Yan Wenqing, including the books that Yan Wenqing had read over the years.

No way. can only be regarded as a desperate gamble to enter Beijing this time. This is also the reason why Yan Wenqing was stopped outside the examination room at the beginning, and almost forced the guards in the examination room to death.

He can't afford to lose.

Even if the results of the palace examination are not satisfactory, you can only get a small nine-grade official, then you are also an official, even if you are poor, at least you can have a bad room, you can have a good fortune, and you can have enough food and clothing.

In his mother's words, he had to get out of the big mountain col in his hometown. can't be like his father, facing the loess with his back to the sky all his life, and then he will die of overwork when he reaches middle age.

In the Haoyang Palace, Liu Yuanlang's eyes swept over everyone, only to see the two of them.

One person is his proud student, and he is expected to pass on his own lineage and carry it forward - student Sun Yongsi.

And the other person Liu Yuanlang looked at was a scholar from a poor family, Yan Wenqing.

Yan Wenqing found that the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, who was in the examination room that day and helped him out of the siege, was looking at him with a smile, and hurriedly smiled at the other party.

Liu Yuanlang nodded lightly, looking kind.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the emperor suddenly spoke: "In this palace examination, the top three are as follows. ”

"Yan Wenqing, Sun Yongsi, Zheng Gaoran. ”

The three of them are the champion, the top eye, and the tanhua. ”

"I awarded Yan Wenqing to edit the Hanlin Academy, and Sun Yongsi and Zheng Gaoran both awarded the Hanlin Academy to edit it, effective immediately. ”

"The rest of the candidates are ranked as follows······"

Yan Wenqing was stunned, couldn't believe it, and was honestly afraid.

The rest of the people present, many of them were also stunned.

Sun Yongsi's eyes are understandable, after all, he is a proud student of Lord Shilang of the Ministry of Rites, and his knowledge is naturally not small.

Needless to say, Zheng Gaoran, the nephew of the prime minister, was born in a scholarly family since he was a child, and he has been exposed to it.

Neither of these two is the champion, but Bangyan and Tanhua, the second and third?

The champion of the dynasty who can leave these two behind is actually a nameless boy who has never been heard of before, Yan Wenqing?

When he heard that he was read by Gong Jinghuan, Yan Wenqing's heart suddenly tightened, as if his name appeared a little fast······ No, my name is not a little fast, but the first to appear!

Doesn't that mean that he has become the champion?!

The surprises are yet to come.

When the sentence behind Emperor Gong Jinghuan "I awarded Yan Wenqing to revise it for the Hanlin Academy, it will take effect immediately" blurted out. The boulder in Yan Wenqing's heart fell gently.

From the six products······ This is from the sixth grade······

There is only one thought in the young man's heart at this moment, and that is that his mother will not have to suffer anymore.

Whether it was the posthumiliation of the Fusang Emperor or the announcement of the ranking, Yan Wenqing didn't listen to a word.

I only know that he Yan Wenqing is the champion, and after walking out of this palace, he is the official of the Dead Hanlin Academy, the Fusang Dynasty.

That's all you need to know, and that's enough.

After the end of the ceremony.

Everyone left in turn.

The scholar named Yan Wenqing found the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, Liu Yuanlang, and knelt down in front of Liu Yuanlang. said that if it weren't for the grace of Lord Shilang, he would never be where he is today.

That Liu Yuanlang hurriedly helped Yan Wenqing up, saying that the man has gold under his knees, and he only kneels to the prince of heaven and earth, and what does he do as a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, he is just a gesture, so why worry about it.

Zhuang Yuanlang only kept shaking his head, tears welling up in his eyes.

As expected, everyone congratulated, and the congratulatory gifts were received one after another.

It is clear that before the ceremony, a group of people who had never known each other, only after knowing that they were the champions, they seemed to be long-lost friends, shushing and asking for warmth, with a smile on their faces. made Yan Wenqing a little uncomfortable for a while, mostly listening to the flattery of his "colleagues", and whispering a few words in response from time to time.

Before leaving the palace, the young man gently stretched out his hand and put it on the jade fence outside the Haoyang Palace.

There is only one thought in my heart, this jade railing is no more comfortable than bamboo.

In the end, Yan Wenqing, who lived in the Zhuangyuan Mansion given by the emperor's palace Jinghuan, sat at the desk, looking at the paper on the table that was damaged by the rain, and couldn't take his eyes off it for a long time.

Perhaps, the paper document carries more than just a voucher to enter the examination room.

Perhaps, looking at the paper paper, the reader can remind the reader of the dark room, the broken wall surrounded by ancient books on all sides, and the light that seeps through the cracks of the books.

Perhaps, looking at the paper paperwork, I remembered the kindness I received and the hardships I suffered along the way.

The hard steamed buns that I gnawed on in the winter night, the "cotton jackets" made of books on my body, and the broken temples where I lived on the way to the exam.

remembered that there was a little fox in the mountain, who gave himself a ride outside the obscene shrine, and said that a handsome scholar like Gongzi would definitely be able to take the imperial examination for high school.

At that time, the scholar laughed and said, "If I am really the champion, I will build you a mountain temple in this mountain in the future." ”

The little fox's mana is low, and he uses his aura to light the lamp for the scholars who are buried in the night road.

In the place where the lights are shining, in addition to the faintly visible lights, there is still a breath of hope.

It is these two insignificant things that illuminate the way forward for the reader.

At night, Yan Wenqing picked up the lamp and wrote a letter home.

Mother, our hard days are over.

He wrote.
