The west courtyard of the imperial capital Linhu Gongdian

A late plum tree in the courtyard is in full bloom, the fragrance is attractive, Jiang Zinan has picked a branch, this plum branch is bifurcated into two, the same cockroach, rouge flowers, the cold fragrance strikes people, look at the spirit of double feeling.

Just thinking about it, I suddenly heard a voice, and when I saw it, I was suddenly surprised: "Childe, you came out...... Huh"

Ye Qingcai came out of the quiet room, and when he heard the word "huh", he smiled: "Why, I haven't seen you for a day, so I don't know your son-in-law?"

"No, it's just that you take a look," he said, and took the mirror.

Ye Qing took a look, he was also stunned, seeing that his face had not changed, a black and green breath was hidden in the Yin Hall, flowing like smoke and fog, before the big difference, mortals could not see this luck, but they could also feel this complexion, which made Ye Qing a little more majestic.

This face is very similar to this Yu Fan, but it is the cyan color of the five virtues, and the number of colors is also less, Ye Qingda is satisfied.

"What I expected is not bad, the way of the five virtues is really the way of order, and it is still a trivial matter to pacify the troubled people, but the key is the 'Tao' established in this process,"

"Although the sparrow is small, it has all the organs, and I established a system in my dream, raised troops to suppress it, pacified the people, and cultivated the farmland, and I condensed this black luck. ”

"With this, I have responded to some of the days of Hade, and although the luck has not risen, it has been refined a lot. ”

"Childe, what are you thinking?" Jiang Zinan's soft voice woke Ye Qing up from his hesitation, and he suddenly hated and itched, thinking that this little girl was becoming more and more seductive: "I'm thinking about how to practice the family law at night." ”

"Family law?" Zhou Ling was honestly puzzled: "Is there one?"

"Well, only to disobedient women. Ye Qing said with something to do.

Jiang Zinan glanced at him, grinded his teeth secretly, pretended not to listen, but said, "Childe, Gongzi Fu invited you over to watch the examiner enter the hospital."

"Oh, I'll go now" Ye Qing was stunned, remembered, and immediately said, got up and hurried away.

The imperial capital is "the capital without snow", which is a bit exaggerated, this morning, the temperature dropped sharply, the evening was more gloomy, the cold wind swept the fallen leaves in front of the imperial city, even if it was an evergreen tree, it also fell the most dry leaves overnight, with the heavy lead clouds in the sky, it seems that there are signs of snow in the city.

The twilight bell rang in the drum towers all over the city, the doors of the triple buildings of the imperial city were opened one after another, and a large number of officials came out after the two governments and seven offices were on duty.

Far away from the corner restaurant box, Ye Qing and Fu Chengshan were talking about poetry and papers, and they both sighed that there were 7,000 people this year, and I was afraid that it would not be easy for the carp to jump the dragon gate

At this time, when they heard the noise of cars and horses, they all pushed open the windows and looked, and they saw one, two, and three...... Under the umbrella cover of these Luo Ying, there are all first- and second-class members.

In the eyes of heaven, these green qi are as calm as an abyss, with a hint of purple, and the canopy of the leader is even more purple, thinking that it is Prime Minister Yan Shiqing.

"There are only six tops, and there is one one left. Fu Chengshan pondered and said.

Ye Qing understood what he meant, but smiled slightly: "Or stay right in front of the palace." ”

After a long time, I saw that the most rearly top out of the government office, after this building, I saw a middle-aged man in the second grade of blue and purple official uniform under the umbrella, with slightly dark skin, a resolute face, and thick eyebrows.

At this time, I felt that I came up, and saw that there were a few lifts, and I nodded slightly.

This was unexpected by Ye Qing and a few others, and hurriedly returned the salute, and when the canopy car drove over, Kong Zhicai breathed a sigh of relief and said: "This is Tong Shantong University, I met it when I borrowed a book in Guanwen Pavilion a month ago, and I was fortunate to take two sentences, this speech is extraordinary......

"It's a little darker, isn't it?" Chu Yan smiled: "You are white-faced, but if you grow up on the seaside, you will be so dark."

Kong Zhi smiled, but his face was upright: "It seems that the war in the north has attracted the attention of the officials." ”

"I'm afraid, speaking of which, it's time for the Gongyuan to lock the courtyard......" Tang Zhongchen thought for a while, and looked at this Ye Qing.

Ye Qing smiled and said nothing, the word "Tong" was written in the wine that day, just waiting for the facts to evolve, there was no need to take credit at this time.

"What are you afraid of, even if you decide to take the main exam for Tong University, we have written no less than ten articles this month specifically for the war in the north and the situation in the world. Chu Yan smiled happily, with a little ill-will: "When the exact news comes out when the hospital is locked tomorrow, there are many people who are more anxious than us." ”

Several people were stroking their palms, thinking that the seven thousand children were like ants in a hot pot, all of them were relieved of depression, and Ha Lu laughed.

The car drove out of the long street and arrived at Tongfu in the east and north of the city, and it was already night.

The car driver lined up in front of the house, and the alley in front of the main gate was crowded, and all the officials who came to visit and wait, obviously heard some rumors.

Tong Shan shook his head and put down the curtain: "Let people collect the umbrella and enter the back door." ”

"Yes, sir. The coachman drove to the back alley, entered the house, bathed and changed clothes, and the maid presented a few sets of regular clothes, Tong Shan waved his hand and waved back: "Change my ......"

There was a chuckle behind the veil of the veil, and a woman turned out, holding a brocade and purple dress: "Great court clothes?"

Tong Shan's eyes lit up and he smiled: "It's still Mrs. Carry." ”

Mrs. Tong waved away the maid and helped him put it on with her own hands: "Although the clothes are new, the people are old, they are more than 20 years old, can they still be intimate?"

Tong Shan stroked her delicate face, the palms of her hands were smooth and warm, until she touched the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, and her expression was slightly gloomy: "We are all old."

"The husband's purple aura is pervasive, and his heart has three feet of clear light, and he will eventually achieve immortality. Mrs. Tong lowered her head and said in a soft voice: "The old wife has not much time to accompany her, how dare you not cherish it." ”

Tong Shan stroked her long hair in a daze, the warm past flowed in her heart, giving birth to some regrets, and she was stunned, when she suddenly heard the voice of the male duck outside: "Please take the order."

"Go" Mrs. Tong straightened the crown belt for him, pushed him out with a smile, and the incense case had already been set up in the courtyard, so I saw him bowing down in the courtyard and receiving the holy decree.

After receiving the order for a while, he entered the room, shook the five-colored silk scroll in his hand, and his face was a little strange: "I am not an old candidate, but now I have become a new subject examiner."

This is to say that he was only thirty years old when he was admitted to the same Jinshi, and now he is forty-seven years old, which is very young according to the examiner of the examination, and he has not exceeded the nominal admission period of Jinshi.

Mrs. Tong is knowledgeable and courteous, she understands herself, and she can't see her husband praising herself, so she looks white: "Are you very proud?"

Tong Shan smiled and didn't say much.

There was nothing to say all night, and in the middle of the next night, Tong Shan was no longer on duty, and went straight to the tribute courtyard.

Before he went out, there was a group of armor soldiers waiting, all standing straight and silently following.

The Gongyuan is located in the southern corner of the imperial city, on the side of the Ministry of Rites, and the regulations are more magnificent than the six departments.

Before Tong Shan arrived at the Gongyuan, he saw that the sky was full of cold stars, and just after the fourth watch, he walked towards the Dragon Gate, but he saw that there were lights hanging in each hall inside, so he looked at it silently.

When I entered the inside, I saw the chief and deputy examiners of the three halls, the invigilators and inspectors, and there were 200 people standing in the public hall, and at the back, the door was locked.

But it is said that there are 7,000 people pouring into the capital, and each person brings a few to a dozen people, which adds up to 40,000 or 50,000, how many eyes are staring at the Gongyuan at this time?

The news of the lock of the hospital immediately spread, and the chief examiner was Tong Shan, who shattered countless eyeballs, and only three days before the examination, Tong University's past years of governance, anthologies, and even the imperial examination papers of that year were turned out and copied and sold, which made the capital paper expensive for a while.

At this time, Tong Shan ignored these, and after entering, everyone "snapped", knelt down, and said in unison: "Say hello to adults"

Tong Shan smiled and waved his hand: "Let's get up"

swept his eyes, and couldn't help but secretly rejoice: "This time the situation in the Northern Wei Dynasty is tense, and His Majesty will be arbitrary, otherwise the main and deputy checks and balances in previous years will really be called a ...... of offense."

Everyone got up, Tong Shan went to the temple, but there were three rows of tablets on it.

At the top are the three Taoist monarchs, the middle is the five emperors, and the lower ones are the Taizu and the current saints, all of whom salute and offer incense together.

After finishing, Tong Shan entered the apse of the Gongyuan, and there was a young Taoist waiting, facing a head: "Poor Dao Yunjizi, I have seen Taoist friends." ”

Tong Shan didn't have time to look at it, so he bowed and saluted back: "Tong Shan has seen Taoist friends." ”

After speaking, he raised his head, and met the Taoist's blue eyes, and for a moment he felt a heavy spiritual pressure, although it was gone in a blink of an eye, and he was envious in his heart: "I don't know which senior Jinshi of this dynasty has achieved cultivation......"

"Poor Dao has been ordered by the Heavenly Court to pass down the questions in this examination. Yun Jizi ignored these, and lightly took out a crystal jade disc in his sleeve, showed it to everyone, and when he saw that it was all confirmed, he withdrew it from his sleeve: "Please also follow the agenda, show the title sealed by the Son of Heaven, and then the two sides will agree on the topic." ”

This is the proper meaning, the first two lists of "Jinshi" are tribute to the heavenly court, and the three lists of the same Jinshi are left to the imperial court for screening.

Tong Shan responded, washed his hands in the golden basin, and bowed deeply to the imperial seal test questions offered in a gold plate, and then took it with his own hands.

As soon as the jade disc holy decree merged, the blue light and the golden light suddenly intersected, floating in the air, turning into a "edict" character, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

This proves that so far, everything is working properly, and there are no flaws or other problems.

"Open the main hall to check" Tong Shan ordered, and suddenly shouted, the door of the coiled dragon vermilion lacquer copper nail opened, and everyone entered the hall.

The main hall is thick and heavy, the floor of one color is polished to the light and can be seen, the hall is profound, there are candlesticks in the aisles, rows of tables and chairs stand in a forest, each is only three feet, and there is a pen holder ink inkstone on it.

In the earth world, there is still a test, and then a palace test, but there is no world in this world, the reason is very simple, this palace test is a direct descent supervision of the real person sent by the heavenly court, how can it be a waste of time in turn, and it will be completed in one time

Moreover, the palace examination only has two questions, and the examination time is very short, only half a day from early morning to noon, you can go to the toilet before the exam, and you can also go to the toilet after the exam, so you are generally not allowed to go out of the toilet in the middle.

At noon, the emperor gave a banquet, so there was no need to bring food to the palace.

Tong Shan glanced at it and asked, "Now there are seven thousand lifts this time, is this hall enough?"

"Not enough, but the left and right side halls are also opened, and you must be able to enter every game," an examiner replied.

Tong Shan didn't ask any more, turned sideways to the real person and said, "Please go to the Jade Seal Town Transport"
