Chapter 140: end

Even though Li Jin was mentally prepared, after hearing Xiao Fulang's words, he was still full of surprises.

Once upon a time, he never thought that he could excel in the imperial examination.

In the first year he traveled, Li Jin also thought that if he failed the exam, he would find a doctor in the town for a consultation. The monthly silver was three and two, and it was enough to save some flowers at home. It's okay to live a simple life.

But in just five years, he has actually passed the examination.

Next, the most important thing Li Jin faced was the palace test ten days later.

This year is Enke and there are few candidates. Therefore, after the test will be released, all the Gongshi who have passed the exam will gather at Chengtian Gate on March 15th. After being searched by Jinwuwei, they will enter the palace under the guidance of the Minister of Rites.

If it were placed in previous years, there were still people taking part in the test at Jiangnan Gongyuan. When they rushed to the capital to take part in the hall test, it was mid-April.

The time for the palace examination will naturally be postponed.

It stands to reason that the tribute of any year must attend the temple in any year. Unless some force majeure factors, such as sudden physical illness, Ding You (parents funeral), etc., Xinke Gongshi had to go home to recuperate or keep filial piety, and then he was allowed to participate in the hall examination three years later.

Under normal circumstances, every Shincogon Shi has to take part in the nearby palace exam. Don't give up or postpone participation.

Qin Muwen didn't know much about the rules of the imperial examination, and the books in the bookstore did not specifically analyze the imperial examination.

Li Jin saw that Xiao Fu Lang was very interested in this. On the way home, he carried Xiao Fu Lang on his back and told him in detail about the requirements for the hall examination.

"The palace exam only takes one day?"

Li Jin nodded, "To be precise, it is two to three hours, and it is fine to hand in the paper in advance. The final time for compulsory winding of the paper is at sunset."

Qin Muwen thought for a while, and said, "That's good, my husband won't have to be cold."

Listening to his childish tone, Li Jin couldn't help but smile: "Why is it cold in the clothes you sew?"

Qin Muwen's ears are slightly red, but he didn't like learning needlework when he was a kid.

If you want to list the two most disliked things in Xiao Qin Muwen's mind, the first is to practice calligraphy to endorse, and the second is to do needlework.

Qin Muwen thought that in order to make him do these two things well, Dad used a lot of methods.

But no one would have expected that after only more than ten years, what he likes to do every day is to copy the words of the husband and make clothes for him and the children.

Soon after the two returned home, the Annunciation officer came.

Li Jin left him at home for two days and gave him delicious treats. Then he asked him to bring letters back to Pang Lao, the head of Ningxing Academy and Hongyan Village.

The officer who delivered the good news agreed with a smile. Master Li Jin is Huiyuan, why would he be unhappy if he can send a good news to the master Huiyuan?

Besides, Li Jin is generous, and the money bag he handed over is all silver!

As for the expenses on the incoming circuit, this is naturally borne by the Ministry of Rites. The post will also take more care of their officials.

"Thank you, Master Li, I wish you a gold list title in the palace exam!"

In the past few days, Li Jin did not go to the dock again, but was studying homework at home.

There is only one strategy for the topic of the palace examination, and when answering it, it will naturally be quoted from others to highlight the academic level of the candidates.

Even though he was calm as Li Jin, I wanted to take advantage of this time to go over the notes I had compiled before.

It just so happens that the little leopard’s birthday is on the ninth day of March. It’s not suitable for a child’s birthday banquet. In addition, there will be a palace examination after five days, which is not suitable for inviting people familiar with the Ministry of Engineering to gather at this time.

Li Jin originally planned to make some delicious food for his family, and let the little leopard catch it for another week, even if it was a lively celebration of the little leopard's first birthday.

Unexpectedly, the General Mansion Bookstore was well informed and sent someone to deliver the birthday gift.

Furthermore, maybe it was the ladies who didn't pay attention when they said this. The old five Mo Zifeng heard him. On this day, he escaped quietly from the martial arts field and followed the gift-giver to Li Jin's door.

Li Jin was surprised when he saw this young man, but more happy.

When the gift-giver saw that the young man was actually following them, both of them were quite shocked. One of them went back to tell the ladies about it, and the other stayed here to guard the young man.

After all, today is the birthday of the little leopard, Qin Muwen deliberately dressed up the little bun so beautifully that the old fifth couldn't walk when he saw someone.

Li Jin even heard the old fifth say in kindness: "I'm really good over the wall, and I will hang upside down!"

The little bun stood beside him in a courtesy of hospitality, with a slightly serious expression with a cinnabar mole on the brows, very cute.

He rarely goes out, except for his father, no one has been so close to him, so he is a little uncomfortable.

Before coming to Beijing on the road, the old fifth leaned in front of him and almost made him cry.

Therefore, Xiao Baozi is actually quite uncomfortable at the moment. If he hadn't taught him some basic hospitality, he would have to hide behind him.

But he was also very interested in the topic of the fifth child. He endured it and couldn't hold back. He asked, "With such a high wall, would you really not fall to yourself?"

The old fifth choked and said, "My elder brother can't fall, I... I won't fall after two more years of practice!"

Little Bun was very realistic and indifferent again: "Oh." Not as good as his father.

The fifth: "..." I feel like I just said something wrong, I should blow myself up.

The next step was the time for the small leopard to catch a week. He crawled on the bed, and under the gaze of everyone, the first thing he caught was the wolf hair prepared by Li Jin.

The little bun was very nervous. The gift he prepared for his brother was Ju, and he didn't know if the little leopard would catch it.

In the gaze of his brother's expectation, the small leopard first glanced at his father, and then grabbed the "Three Character Classic" closest to him.

Xiao Baozi is more nervous.

At this moment, the fifth child suddenly said, "I grab brushes and books at a young age, really..." It hurts to see it.

The voice of the old fifth is relatively unfamiliar. The little leopard followed the reputation, put down everything quickly, and quickly climbed to his brother.

Then he fluttered into the arms of the little bun: "Brother!"

Little Bun thought, his brother didn't grab the gift he prepared, but grabbed him... well, this is also a kind of comfort.

Fifth: "..."

The little leopard turned his head and looked at him: "Bad!"

In the end, the fifth child was taken back by Mo Zixuan. Mo Zixuan probably just came out of the school and wore an elegant white robe. Although he was only ten years old, he looked quite stable.

His outfit today is completely different from the strong outfits Xiao Baozi has seen a few times before, and his vigorous aura is hidden.

Provoked Xiao Baozi glanced more.

Xiao Baozi is not very resistant to people with similar temperaments to his father.

Nevertheless, he still admires Daddy and Daddy the most.

Five days later, it was the day of the palace examination.

At the time of Yin, Li Jin got up, Qin Muwen tied his hair and dressed. The two of them ate something to cushion their stomachs, and Li Jin had to set off for the palace.

Of course, he did not dare to drink water. Although the palace examination did not stipulate that it was not allowed to go to the toilet, the emperor was watching him. If he couldn't hold it back, it would be very insulting.

At the time of Mao, 197 tributes headed by Li Jin, under the leadership of the minister of rites, passed through the Qianbu Gallery and gathered at Chengtian Gate [Note].

The order in which the tributes lined up was based on the ranking of the meeting. As a Huiyuan, Li Jin was naturally the first.

At Chengtianmen, they will wait for Jin Wuwei's body search.

The palace examination was not as strict as before, after all, no one dared to make a cheat sheet in front of the emperor.

If someone is so bold, I am afraid that what awaits him is the fate of exile.

After the body search was over, the Gongshi followed behind the minister of rites. On both sides of the road were more than two hundred guards who walked towards Duanmen under their eyes.

The most indispensable thing for Li Jin is his calm attitude when facing big scenes. Before he came here, he had given many speeches and reported a lot of work.

More than two hundred guards' "welcome in the lane", he still did not change his face, and his spine did not bend.

Gong Shi, who was born in Gaomen, has been trained since he was a child, and his family also knows the process of the palace exam and sent a gentleman to train them.

It looked personable now, without a trace of flinching.

But the remaining Gongshi of ordinary origin saw this kind of big scene for the first time. He didn't know where to put his nervous hands. It was a trivial thing to bend over and shrink his head. There were even people who stepped on their left and right feet, almost I stumbled.

The minister of the courtesy department at the forefront has been paying attention to Li Jin's manners behind him. He knows that Li Jin has been registered with His Majesty. Not surprisingly, the champion must have fallen on Li Jin.

Therefore, the minister of rites is paying attention. If Li Jin behaves in a panic, he can mention something and make a good relationship.

But Li Jin did not calmly resemble a peasant from a remote village. In comparison, he looked even more expensive than the high-born sons behind him by virtue of his height and appearance.

In the time of thinking, a group of people have passed through the Duanmen and walked to the Wumen.

The Meridian Gate is divided into the main gate, the left gate and the right gate. Yemen will only be opened during the palace exam or ceremony.

The main gate is divided into three gates, the middle gate is for the emperor's exclusive use, ministers go up to the two gates next to the middle gate.

The tributes were still not officials, so they had to go to the left and right gates on both sides of the main entrance.

In addition to the emperor's entrance and exit, the middle door of the main entrance can also be used by the queen on the wedding day.

And the remaining opportunity is that after the palace exam, the champion, the second runner-up, and Tanhua can leave from this door.

At other times, if someone dared to walk in the middle of the main entrance, it would very likely lead to murder.

In front of the Meridian Gate, the Gongshi according to the ranking of odd and even numbers, go to the left in odd numbers and go to the right in even numbers.

After passing through, the Fengtian Gate is greeted.

At this moment, the gate of Fengtian Gate was closed tightly, and Li Jin and his party were standing outside in single clothes. No one shouted coldly at this moment, all of them were very excited.

Even if the teeth were so cold that they couldn't help but tremble, my heart was extremely excited.

——You will be able to face holy soon! You should know that even if you enter the court as an official, you don't have the right to go to court under Rank 4 and it is really difficult to see the emperor.

Just after the hour, with the sound of drums, Fengtian Gate opened, and the tributes passed through Fengtian Gate and stood on the square in front of the Huangji Hall.

On Dan Bi (the steps of the palace) stood the reading officer and the examiner, and the candidates were all in front of them.

After another moment, the **** announced everyone to enter the inner temple. Li Jin and others prayed five times and three times.

Later, Master Shoufu read the imperial edict, which included the question of policy. Although the space in the hall is large, Lord Shoufu's voice is not small, ensuring that Gongshi can hear what he reads even if he stands at the end.

It doesn’t matter if you can’t remember the title only once.

After they took their seats one by one, the deacon began to hand out the policy questions and answer sheets, which could be read carefully at this moment.

The seats for the hall test were also arranged according to the ranking. Li Jin was the first from the right in the first row, and a bunch of officials sat beside him.

He calmed down and started to look at the topic.

Topic: Asking the Emperor's Government and the Emperor's Heart

I also said before that the palace examination will not eliminate Gongshi, but this does not mean that the topic is simple. On the contrary, the elders will give some questions and present them to your majesty, and ask him to choose one as the palace examination questions.

But if the emperor is interested, he will also ask questions on his own.

This question was given by His Majesty himself. He did not lean towards this aspect because Li Jinzhi was doing economics and industry.

On the contrary, the coverage is extremely wide, and it is really a topic for the selection of officials.

The emperor also saw that the reason why the answer sheet of Li Jin's examination made people's eyes shine was that based on his new path, the logic of the article was intertwined, which was indisputable.

He expects Li Jin to give him new surprises.

But if Li Jin is the same as the test, he still has to put the question in the calculation aspect, and he will not let Li Jin out of the top three.

After all, at the dock that day, the emperor Li Jin's steadfast effort saw it.

He appreciates such talents, but such people are not suitable for helping him manage the entire court.

If you want to be the champion, you have to bring the integrity of the mean without being selfish for anyone. Simply put, on the basis of integrity, you have to be able to tolerate others.

Last year, Wan Yun was not the champion because his attitude was conceited that he hadn't noticed. He saw only people he liked, and he ignored everyone else.

Such a person is capable, but not suitable for being a high official.

After seeing the exam questions, Li Jin closed his eyes. He had guessed in advance that the hall exam questions would not give him a shortcut. You can only write essays on governance of the country carefully and conscientiously.

After such a short while, Li Jin began to recall the books he had reviewed a few days ago.

Probably after a cup of tea, Li Jin sorted out his thoughts, and he began to draft--

"Chen Wen: The emperor's Linyu Yunei also must have the real governance of the manager, and then it can restrain the crowd, and it is intricate... Chen Wen: The emperor has the grace of nurturing... It's the most. The minister is right." [Note]

A draft was completed in one go, and when Li Jin checked it, he felt that he didn't even need to change the wording.

The emperor reviewed the memorial for a while, and saw that Li Jin suddenly stopped struggling to write. He walked off the court to see what Li Jin had written.

From this look, the emperor stood behind him for a few minutes.

In the policy theory of the Palace Examination, Li Jin’s article changed the previous style of "speaking with data and facts," but also borrowed the ideas of the previous emperors to govern the country and adapted the contemporary national conditions to write a perfect theory of governance.

Several old patrons looked at His Majesty's expression, and they all had counts in their hearts.

After Li Jinxian finished the transcript, he checked it again, but just after one o'clock in the afternoon, he turned in his answer sheet and was about to go out.

After writing such an article in one go, Li Jin felt that he was still immersed in the world of ideas, and he had to go home slowly.

Three days after the palace examination, the ceremonial ceremony was passed, and the ranking had to be announced. Therefore, the marking time was too short.

Therefore, there is an unwritten rule, which is to directly pick out the top ten answer sheets, and select the top champion, second place, and search.

Li Jin is now Huiyuan, not surprisingly, he is indispensable among the top three.

After Li Jin went home, he silently wrote his answer sheet again before taking a shower and lying on the bed.

When he slept, he missed dinner and slept until the next morning.

After waking up, Li Jin directly sat up, as if thinking of something, he went to the case desk and picked up the policy theory he had written before going to bed and began to read it.

Qin Muwen put on his clothes and held the lamp again. Sitting on the side, very quietly waiting for Li Jin to finish reading.

He thought that just after listening to the process of the palace test, he felt emotional. Husband went to the palace exam here, and it is normal for him to feel a little tight now.

If the husband's attitude is as usual, it will make him feel strange.

For three days, it is said that it is short and not long, and it is not long to say that it is long. Soon the day of the Chuanxu Ceremony, Li Jin and all the tributes wore the clothes prepared in advance by the Ministry of Ritual, with a plain silver belt on their waists and black feet on white. Noodle boots.

With his hair curled up, he stood under the steps of the Huangji Hall, waiting for the official of the Hongyu Temple to read the scripture.

After the chanting is over, some people will offer Wusha hats, and the champion will be different from other Jinshi.

"Strategy to test the world's tribute, the first class is bestowed with Jinshi and the second class, the second class is bestowed with Jinshi background, and the third class is bestowed with Jinshi background." [Note]

After reading this sentence, it is time for the officials of Honghe Temple to sing the list.

Li Jin stood in the first row, with a solemn temperament and noble temperament. He and everyone behind him quietly listened to the vocals of the scroll officer.

"First place first, Hongyan Village, Li Jin."

Li Jin's eyes widened slightly, and his Adam's apple shook. He... actually scored six yuan, three yuan and the first prize!

The top three chants will sing three times. People's voice is limited. Jinshi is also outside the hall. There are many Honghe Temple officials standing outside. They start to repeat what the previous person sang at intervals.

Under the red walls and glazed tiles reflected by the morning sun, there was full of air, louder than louder than ever, chants spread throughout the palace and echoed in the Forbidden City over and over again.

"First place first place, Hongyan Village, Li Jin——"
