Chapter Seventy-Six: Shengjing City, Yumo Comes to the Palace to Try
After Yumo and Zhang Jiuling got off the sedan chair, they saw a large number of officials coming in and out, and a servant-like official walked up to Yumo and Zhang Jiuling, hugged his fists and said, "Are you two of the top three in the new department?"
"Exactly, exactly. Yumo and Zhang Jiuling replied with their fists cupped.
"Please come with me into the listening room and wait for His Majesty the Emperor's summons. The official said.
"Please lead the way. Zhang Jiuling said to the servant with a fist.
"Your Excellency, please!"
"Please!"
Yumo followed the servant into the listening room, although it is called the listening room, but it is very large, there can be more than ten sets of tea tables in it, and there are some people chatting next to individual tea tables.
When the two of them came in, they both cast different eyes, some envy, some jealousy, and some people showed a hatred in their eyes.
Yumo's feeling was very sensitive, and he felt a sense of murderous intent, thinking to himself how could I pull hatred when I first came back here?
couldn't help but look up at Zhang Jiuling, Zhang Jiuling also looked up at Yumo, and both of them felt that someone here was not kind to him.
Yumo and Zhang Jiuling looked deeply at everyone, and said in unison: "Good morning, everyone, student Zhang Jiuling and student Yumo have saluted everyone!"
At this time, an old man stood up and said with a smile: "Two top three students, we may be officials in the same dynasty after today." Don't talk about students, you will be colleagues in the future, don't be so polite, you can call us brother behind your back in the future. β
After saying this, they all heard the people in the room laughing, and the laughter revealed that this old man was not an ordinary person, in the listening room of this palace, he could shout and laugh at the younger generation, this person must have a great background, and he had such an idea in Yumo's heart.
"Lao Li, you are a good thing, and you are joking with children, he dares to call you brother, your precious son, you must not chop people up!" said another old man sitting there.
Yumo looked at the patterns on their bodies, the pattern on the chest of the old man who spoke first was a crane, and the pattern on the chest of the old man who spoke later was a golden chicken.
Yumo knew the grade of the two as soon as he looked at the patterns on the clothes, one of these two was a first-class member of the dynasty, and the other was a second-grade member of the dynasty. These two were talking and laughing here, Yumo and Zhang Jiuling stood at a long distance from them, smiling and responding to everyone's questions.
Yumo saw that the worst pattern on the chest of the officials in the room was Yun Yan, which showed that the youngest official here was also above the fourth grade, and these seven or eight people in this room, if they said a word, there would be a lot of vibration in the court.
The pattern in front of the official's clothes is called a complement, and the official uniform is called a patch, and the pattern of the patch can show the grade of the official.
This grade is determined as follows: first-grade cranes, second-grade golden pheasants, third-grade peacocks, fourth-grade cloud geese, fifth-grade white pheasants, sixth-grade herons,
seven-grade emu, eight-grade yellow oriole, nine-grade quail;
Military attachΓ©s: first-grade and second-grade lions, third-grade and fourth-grade tigers and leopards, fifth-grade bears, sixth-grade and seventh-grade biao, eighth-grade rhinoceros, and ninth-grade seahorses.
The old man said: "Two little friends, please sit here, we old guys don't eat people, hehe!"
An old man in yellow clothes on the side, with a dragon on his body, said: "Lao Li, don't scare our top three, don't dare to deal with us old guys in the future." Ha ha. β
"No, no. There were a lot of people behind him.
Yumo took a look, I don't know which prince this is, as long as there are yellow clothes on his body, the youngest one with a coiled dragon is also a national surname, and it is generally more likely to be a prince.
Yumo and Zhang Jiuling immediately bowed to the prince: "Hello prince!"
"Ahh
How dare Yumo and Zhang Jiuling sit in this room, they feel a little depressed after coming in, what kind of people are these, they are not first-class civil officials, or second-class military generals, Yumo and Zhang Jiuling, these two little guys are really angry!
After a while, a young man in golden clothes came in outside the door, and after this young man came in, the officials sitting behind him hugged his fists: "Good morning, everyone! As soon as you come back, I hope you colleagues will take more care of you in the future!"
Most of these officials glanced at this young man and didn't say anything, but most of them were not very satisfied.
This little marquis has invisibly pulled a lot of hatred for himself!
Yumo and Zhang Jiuling hugged their fists at the yellow-clothed young man and got to know each other.
Yumo finally saw the first of the top three of the little marquis Wang Long, this Wang Lung's father is a military general, who made great contributions in sweeping away border troubles, and later fought against bandits, the emperor was happy, and gave their family hereditary three marquis. Through secret news, it was said that Wang Lung's father helped a lot when the current emperor seized power, and finally gave their family the title by sweeping the border and eliminating bandits.
This title is not small in the capital, because the hereditary seal means that their royal family has a marquis of three grades for generations! As long as the dynasty is not destroyed, as long as the family does not fall, there will always be a master of more than three grades in the court!
This title is the second in this cool world, and there is a king with a different surname, that is, the prince who was born in the common people and finally obtained the second grade.
This little young marquis, and the officials who didn't have to sit down, when they were in their forties, they automatically became a third-grade official, and the officials also had to give people a good official position.
This time, the fifth young master came in, pulled Yumo and Zhang Jiuling, and sat down at a table, Yumo glanced at Zhang Jiuling, Zhang Jiuling glanced at Yumo, and the two sat down tremblingly.
The three of them were chatting in a whisper, everyone else was used to this kind of occasion, only Yumo and Zhang Jiuling came in for the first time, so they were a little restrained, and with the help of the little marquis, the two of them also overcame their nervousness.
It was almost noon, and the officials left one after another, and finally there were three people left.
At this time, a man wearing a eunuch uniform came and came into the house and shouted: "This year, the top three, listen to Xuan enter the hall!"
The three of them followed the eunuch in turn, walked through a gate, and continued to walk, feeling that there were high walls on both sides of their bodies, and the three of them walked with their heads down, neither fast nor slow, and every fifteen steps they saw that there was a pair of warrior's feet in front of them, indicating that there was a guard every ten paces.
When you walk to a relatively large door, you will be led by another eunuch, and this time you are really following step by step!
Don't look at the little marquis who is bold, but he is not careful along the way, this is a family education, knowing who can be offended, and knowing who can not be offended.
When the three of Yumo came to the Jinluan Palace, the eunuch on duty shouted: "This year, the top three in the new department will enter the meeting, and the palace test will begin!"
The three of them followed the eunuch to His Royal Highness Jin in order, and the three of them knelt down in turn: "See the grass people, Your Majesty the Emperor!"
Every word of the three of them was the same, because the eunuch had made a special statement during the march when he came.
"Aiqing, flat body!" An old voice sounded, Yumo knew that the emperor was only in his sixties, and he looked even older when he heard this voice.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"The three of you are talented people in the world, and my exam questions today are very simple, and I want you three to answer them well. β
"Thank you for your majesty's teachings!"
The three of them didn't dare to raise their heads until now, just lowered their heads, and Yumo felt that his qi was a little insufficient.
He slowly took a deep breath to adjust, and looked at Zhang Jiuling on the side with his purpose, just like himself, he was very nervous.
"Today's exam question is based on the current climate, and I will make an upper link, and you can answer the next link. β
"Listen up, Shanglian is: Autumn wind and autumn rain send autumn cool!"
Yumo heard that this was really not very difficult, and he learned the right pair from the beginning of the sprout, the sky to the earth, and the rain to the wind. Continents against the sky. Mountain flowers are to sea trees, and red is to the sky. The thunder is faint and foggy. The sun goes down against the sky. The wind is high and the autumn moon is high...
Yumo thought about the old emperor's couplet: Autumn wind and autumn rain send autumn cool! There is autumn wind, autumn rain, and physical comfort. The cooperation of the lower link is also about the same, Yumo thought about it for a long time, and had his own lower link in his heart, the next link is: spring snow and spring cold knock spring dream.
At the time of a cup of tea, the emperor said on it: "The time is almost up, do you three have a satisfactory masterpiece?"
Wang Lung stepped forward and knelt down and replied: "Weichen, there is a couplet, and the moonlit night and moon are urging the moon to grow old." β
The emperor touched his beard and smiled and said, "Yes, yes, he is a talent that can be created." β
Zhang Jiuling immediately took a few steps forward and knelt on his knees: "The grass people see Your Majesty, and the next link is: Spring and spring tide leave spring." β
The emperor looked at Zhang Jiuling again and said with a smile: "You are not bad, worthy of your name." β
Yumo stepped forward and knelt on the ground: "The grass people see Your Majesty, my next link is: Spring snow and spring cold knock spring dreams." β
The emperor's eyes rolled, and he looked carefully at the rain and ink below: "What a spring dream! I like this sentence, hehe, good!"
The chief eunuch shouted at this time: "The palace test is over, and we are waiting outside the hall of the top three new branches." β
The three of them followed the chief eunuch out of the hall and waited at the bottom of the steps of the main hall.
Time is getting slower and slower, and Yumo feels that time seems to have stopped now, and every minute and second is so slow.
Has time stopped? No, time is still going on, but Yumo's heart is too nervous to wait for the announcement.
Yumo looked at the two people on the side with his eyes, don't look at Wang Xiaohouye's nervousness is no less than Yumo.
Because the emperor wants who is the champion of the new department, who is the leader, and who is the tanhua, this will have a great impact on the future future.
No matter how slow the time was, it was also moving forward, and after an unknown amount of time, the eunuch came out again.
"The top three in the new department, enter the hall to listen to the announcement. β
The three of Yumo walked into the Jinluan Hall in turn, and knelt down in front of the hall in turn.
The emperor walked to the bookcase and said with a smile: "Today, the couplets of the three of you are comparable, and they can only be determined by your grades.
Yumo thought about it, and didn't answer any questions given by anyone, why did the emperor say that I answered some questions, and Yumo was also thinking about the emperor's words.
