Those who will make the list are called tributes.

After the tribute, there is also a palace test, in which the emperor will personally select the top three and award the titles of champion, list eye, and tanhua.

However, for most tributes, the palace examination is basically a passing motion, because as long as you don't perform too badly in the palace examination, as long as the articles you write are decent and smooth, you will basically get the fame of a jinshi, no matter how bad it is, you can also give a fellow jinshi background.

Therefore, for most candidates, the examination is a dragon gate, and if you cross this dragon gate, you will be considered to have the fame of the Jinshi!

During the Ming Dynasty, the civil officialdom had almost developed to its peak, and all kinds of rules or unspoken rules had been extremely perfect.

If you want to mix in the officialdom in the future, if you don't have a Jinshi meritorious person, then I'm sorry, it will be difficult for you to integrate into the real civil official group.

Want to be in a high position?

Don't even think about it, you don't even have a Jinshi background, and you still want to ride on top of our heads? Believe it or not, the old man sprayed you to death?!

Because of this, it is conceivable how ecstatic and even triumphant those new Kogons on the list will be.

Because this is a ticket, the only ticket that can go to the Ming officialdom and even go to the end of the line, without this ticket, you are not even qualified to get on the bus!

"Good news that Zhang Xiaoren, the old man of Changsha, Hunan, is the one hundred and thirty tributes in high school, and the saint of Jinluan Palace!"

"Good news, Li Boyang, the master of Shaoxing, Zhejiang, the ninety-second tribute of the high school, the saint of the Jinluan Palace!"

"Good news Hubei Yichang old man ......."

At the door of the inn, people who reported the good news came one after another, beating gongs and drums, and shouting loudly, for fear that the voice would be quiet, which would make these upstarts unhappy and lose their rewards.

"Brother Lin, it should be no problem for you to be on the list, but this time, I am a little mysterious!" Looking at the people who came one by one to report the good news, Xu Wei looked nervous.

"What's the matter, the exam paper that will be tested is written again?"

"It's a little bit, after the last teacher's teaching, I have already restrained a little, but I have a problem, as long as I write an article, it is easy to lose control, and I want to write everything in my mind completely...... Whether or not you can make the list this time can only depend on the will of God!"

Lin Nuo was a little speechless, Xu Wei is a person who knows how to learn from him, and he is indeed extremely good, in terms of talent, he thinks that he is not as good as the other party.

But this person's fault is also extremely obvious, and he is easy to laugh at himself.

When you write an article, your brain is hot, and you can't hold it back, whether you like it or not, anyway, you can write it first!

He has this kind of personality, and when he meets an examiner who appreciates him, he may like it very much, but if he encounters an examiner who doesn't like this type of examiner, he will even directly set it as a drop paper, and he won't be given a chance at all!

"Good news Jiangxi master Xu Wei, the third place tribute in the high school examination, the saint above the Jinluan Palace!"

"Good news Jiangxi lord Lin Nuo, the second place in the high school examination, the saint of the Jinluan Palace!"

Just when Xu Wei was worried, two groups of teams suddenly came outside the inn, one by one, they played and sang like a troupe, and they rushed into the inn excitedly, and they sang loudly.

Call!

Xu Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and his hands, which were still a little trembling, relaxed, and he knew in his heart that he had taken a good fortune again this time and met an examiner who appreciated him.

Lin Nuo did not like the mess, and after distributing some silver to send away the annunciators, he simply greeted the other new Kogons and hurried back to his room.

On the contrary, Xu Wei, who was still dizzy when he stayed in place, was surrounded by a group of candidates, and he was a little confused and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

......

Legend has it that the temple examination began half a month after the end of the examination.

As the last and highest-level exam of the vast empire, the examination room is located in the Forbidden City, and the chief examiner is none other than the current Emperor Hongzhi.

The dynasty is Tian Shelang, and the twilight is the Tianzi Hall, which is the true portrayal of Lin Nuo and other tributes today.

Before, they were still civilians, and although they had the status of lifting people, they were not officials.

But today, after stepping into this Jinluan Palace, after participating in this palace test, they are no longer people, but officials in the real sense, whether they are released or stay in the capital in the future, they basically start with seven products.

It sounds like a seven-rank official is not big, but if you think about the power of the head of a county in later generations, you will know how awesome and desirable this so-called seven-rank official is.

A group of tributes are very excited, the palace test is different from the past, there will be no landing, even if it is not good to play, you can also mix with the same jinshi, and then find some ways to put it out, get a Qipin County master dangdang, that small day, don't be too cool!

When the sky was slightly bright, the tributes who had already gathered in front of the palace gate, under the leadership of the guide, followed the simple and majestic road, and under the strict eyes of the guards, they stepped into the legendary Jinluan Palace.

In the main hall, the hundred officials have already arrived, after the arrival of a group of tributes, the hall suddenly made a loud music, Huang Zhong Da Lu, Xiao Qin accompaniment, the pleasant sound of silk and bamboo echoed on the Jinluan Palace, majestic and vast.

At this time, Emperor Hongzhi, the supreme ruler of the Ming Empire, slowly walked to the dragon chair under the attendants of the celebrant eunuch.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

At the moment when Emperor Hongzhi sat down, hundreds of officials knelt down and shouted long live!

Although the tributes were a little nervous, they also followed the same example, honestly knelt on the ground, and shouted hoarsely.

Some of the candidates even shed tears of excitement, in the emperor's opinion, they were left with tears of joy because they could witness the face of heaven and listen to the emperor's teachings.

But Lin Nuo knew that the reason why these tributes shed tears was actually to remember that unbearable examination career.

Finally got through the palace exam, and finally didn't have to take the exam again in the future, this situation, especially those forty or fifty-year-old tributes were even more emotional, and under the touching scene, tears flowed unconsciously.

The hundred officials watched this scene quietly, and no one came out to impeach these tributes for being rude.

They also survived step by step in this way, so they can naturally understand the hardships and difficulties of the candidates, and naturally they will not come out to block everyone at this selection ceremony.

After saluting, the hundred officials got up, and Lin Nuo stood in the crowd, looking at Emperor Hongzhi who was sitting on the dragon chair with the corner of his eye.

I have to say that Emperor Hongzhi really had a good face.

With good facial features and a moderate figure, he did not get as fat as a normal middle-aged man, but because of the precipitation of the years, he added a sense of heaviness.

Perhaps because of being a benevolent monarch all year round, Lin Nuo did not feel the so-called domineering aura coming to his face, and the other party had a special temperament, which made people unconsciously convinced of him, and even couldn't raise the idea of resisting.

Lin Nuo took a deep breath, and secretly speculated in his heart that this emperor, who had been on the throne for many years, had a very special temperament, if he put his mind into practicing martial arts, it might not take long for him to comprehend the sword intent that ordinary people would be difficult to touch in his life, and become a generation of martial arts masters!
