This world is really a strange art, the witch Gu town is very troublesome, for the court of the past dynasties to be suspicious, and the demon clan is a big difficulty, the prince is a dragon species, in the absence of the prince wants to compete for the heir, although it is not allowed, in fact, it is also human nature.

Therefore, he privately recruited and made friends with some people, and even secretly raised some private soldiers, but the emperor was not too strict.

But recruiting warlocks, or fornicating with demon clans, only these two, the emperor must not bear.

But because the evidence has not yet been grasped, and the king of Qi still needs to balance the two sons of the king of Shu and the king of Lu, the emperor did not immediately reprimand.

The emperor swallowed a mouthful of saliva, stared at King Qi, and made up his mind in his heart, the matter of the dragon girl originally wanted to discuss it again, but now there is no need to drag it out.

If King Qi is further involved, how will he end up, will he kill another son?

Thinking of this, the emperor was expressionless, and said coldly: "You have a good heart, but you are a layman in water control and aftermath, you can have this heart, but you don't have to go out of Beijing." ”

"Luo Pei has made meritorious contributions to controlling the water, and he is also doing the post-disaster treatment, and when it comes to the locust plague, it is better to choose another person to choose him. ”

As he spoke, he said, "Luo Pei!"

"The minister is here!" Luo Pei hurriedly went out of class and bowed.

"I ordered you to go to the three provinces to inspect the three provinces again, and control the water on the same day, the dragon girl of the Panlong Lake Water Mansion reported by the Qing has merit in the imperial court, and you can also prepare the title to please Yu I, but you can do more than one difference, and the province is cumbersome. ”

"Honorable Order. ”

Not only Luo Pei, Taichang Temple is in charge of sacrifice, this kind of ghost and god title is also in charge, and the current Taichang Temple Qing and Shaoqing are all listed.

The King of Shu, who had not spoken out all the time, couldn't help laughing, he actually didn't hear the secret of the Dragon Maiden, but now when he heard it, he knew that there must be a big problem inside, otherwise this brother, how could he take the risk of doing something?

Now that he was beaten back by his father, he was naturally happy in his heart, glanced at King Qi, and was secretly vigilant in his heart: "Brother Wang's power is really above me." ”

"I've got to work hard to strengthen it, or I don't even know a lot of things. ”

How did the King of Qi know that he just mentioned going to inspect the locust plague, so he not only asked the emperor to give Luo Pei the opportunity, but also issued a holy decree to canonize the dragon girl?

"I knew it was like this...... he gritted his teeth, but he knew that even if he knew it earlier, he probably couldn't help it and would still act like this.

Such a big benefit, giving up like this, really made him unwilling.

Thinking of the various benefits of the heavenly family, King Qi couldn't help but say: "Father, in fact, the son is ......."

He wanted to say that he had actually learned about the locust plague, and even if he couldn't do it himself, it would be fine to go out with Luo Pei as a deputy.

But the emperor faintly stopped it.

"Alright, I've already decided on this matter, no need to say more!"

This sentence is directly cold and hard.

The officials all looked at their noses, noses, mouths, mouths, and hearts, and didn't dare to open their eyes, but King Qi just felt that many people were watching their jokes at this time.

As an adult, he was rarely scolded by his father, and he was also a very face-saving Qi king in front of the courtiers, and the emperor's cold refusal was not as embarrassing as a slap in the face, but it was not far off.

What makes King Qi even more unacceptable is that there are two brothers in the palace, King Shu and King Lu, what are their expressions at the moment, are they laughing at him for not measuring his own strength and taking humiliation on himself?

The atmosphere was a little stiff, but if it continued, I was afraid that it would be more and more embarrassing to King Qi.

An official from the Qi king's camp suddenly came out at this time: "Your Majesty, the tributes outside are kneeling and waiting, is this imperial examination going to be passed on?"

The person who spoke was an official of Honglu Temple, although he was relieving the siege, he was also natural and did not attract attention.

The emperor immediately came to his senses and nodded: "That's the case, pass it on!"

Glancing at Zhong Fanzhi, the chief examiner of the civil official in front of him, this scholar immediately came out of the ranks, and Zhao Gonggong quietly came down and presented the holy decree with both hands, but he was still holding the golden book, and the list of this golden book was long, there were always two hundred and thirty-three.

So Zhong Fanzhi held the holy decree in both hands and walked directly to the temple door.

It is said that the two hundred and thirty-three tributes who were already kneeling and their knees were about to swell, but they did not dare to move, and when the college students came out, everyone was in high spirits when they saw this scene.

Zhong Fanzhi unfolded the holy decree and read it aloud.

"The edict said: On April 20, the eighteenth year of Chengshou, the first class jinshi and the third place were given, the second class jinshi was born seventy, and the third class was born with one hundred and sixty jinshi......"

The name read by the scholar was given a specific name, and there would have been only four of them.

The champion of the first class, the list eye, and the flower, this is the Jinshi and the first.

The second class will be given the Jinshi background.

When it comes to the top three, it is the same Jinshi who has a somewhat embarrassing status, although the world collectively calls these three Jinshi, but the average scholar only values the first and second first.

The first name of the second class is Chuanlu, and when the college students finish reading it, they will take over the golden book and be responsible for the roll call, and the second and third Jiajia after these four people will be sung one by one, so it is called Chuanlu.

Su Ziji was in front of the team, and his face seemed indifferent at this time, but in fact, because of this atmosphere, he was also a little nervous.

On the day of the palace examination, he was disturbed, and he did not know whether the articles he wrote could impress the examiner and the emperor and get the top prize.

Although this name is just the icing on the cake, it is naturally good to be able to get it.

So, when he heard that the first name of the first class was about to be announced, Su Ziji also held his breath and concentrated.

"The first place in the first class of the palace examination...... Su Zi from Shuanghua Mansion in Guangling Province!"

It's done!

Hearing this, Su Ziji was relieved.

There is no need for officials to remind them that after determining the identity of the tributes, more than 200 people have already received etiquette training, and at this time, they just entered the main hall according to the results of the training and thanked the emperor.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" After Su Ziji entered the palace, he was led to a suitable position by the ceremonial officer, and he bowed three times and bowed nine times, and the mountain shouted long live.

and led him up to the tail of the left class in the temple.

In an instant, Su Ziji felt it, and several eyes stared at him.

There are etiquette in every move of the court, even at this time, the ministers can't look at it at will, all those who can see it are people with special status, Su Ziji couldn't help but look at it, only to see the emperor sitting on the throne, his eyes sweeping over him.

Su Ziji hurriedly lowered his head, and then felt the remaining several pairs of eyes, one of which was a pair of glittering eyes that were carefully examining himself, and he had seen it clearly, but this was the king of Qi.

"King Qi is the same as rumored, sure enough, he is seven feet long, he looks heroic, and it is said that there are several dragon scales under the two ribs, but I didn't expect that this person also has extremely high martial arts, but he can't hide my induction. ”

"The prince's martial arts and literature are all traditional, but it is extremely rare to cultivate to this - he doesn't have half of my rosewood. ”

"I don't know how much hard work has been put into it. ”

"It's a bit incredible to be able to do this. ”
