Red Chamber: Bring Xue Baochai home at the beginning

Chapter 38
"Yuzai changed his mind just now."

Hearing the questions from the princes, Emperor Jingshun's face was neither red nor white.

"How can the emperor's imperial pen and verdict be changed at will?"

Zhang Songyue, the chief assistant minister, couldn't help but speak at this time.

"My lord, why is this?"

In fact, the princes had some vague guesses, but they still couldn't believe it.

This is a talent show!
Emperor Jingshun gritted his teeth and said, "Feng Yuan is too young, I don't want to be like a child prodigy."

In history, several dynasties had Tongzike.

It is recorded in the "Three Character Classics":

Tang Liuyan, Fang was seven years old.

Raise child prodigies and make orthographic characters.

With the development of the times, there are more and more disadvantages of Tongzike.

Many people even regard this path as a shortcut to change their family.

This led to the flourishing of child prodigies.

In the end, they were gradually banned by the court.

At this time, Emperor Jingshun said that he was not a child prodigy, which was politically correct nonsense.

But judging by Feng Yibo's age, it can barely be justified.

And what popped up in Emperor Jingshun's mind was also what was in Feng Yibo's paper.

Taking history as a mirror and summarizing reflections.

These methods are really easy to use!

Although I was a little ashamed in my heart, I still learned to use my words.

He said with regret: "Even so, I couldn't bear to drop him, so I dropped two and took him."

All the princes in the court have the expression of an old man on the subway.

What the hell?
He is obviously the number one scholar, but it seems like it's for his own good that you drop two admissions?
"Think twice, Your Majesty, is it a child's play to show off your talent?"

The chief assistant Zhang Song gave a deep salute, and said in his mouth: "Since the order has been set, how can we change it at will? If things go on like this, you will have no heavenly power!"

The emperor's golden words cannot be changed.

Otherwise, the credibility will be gone!

Emperor Jingshun smiled wryly when he heard the words, no longer explained, and said directly: "Teacher, this matter has been decided, so let it be."

Zhang Songyue was taken aback for a moment, then thought of something, and pointed out:

"Although the wind of prodigy is undesirable, the disaster of eunuchs must be guarded against!"

The eunuch refers to Dai Quan?
Now the gentlemen also reacted.

What did Dai Quan just say to make the emperor do his own tricks at the Talent Ceremony?
Isn't this self-destruction of the Great Wall?

But they all understand that there are no eunuchs in the world.

The so-called eunuch party is just a shield in front of the monarchy.

And this wearing power does not represent the power of the monarch.

It is the Supreme Emperor.

Emperor Jingshun naturally couldn't admit it.

He talked about him from left to right, and directly announced: "Let's release the list!"

The servant repeated loudly: "Release the list~~!"

Zhang Songyue sighed, and said helplessly: "The ministers also understand the difficulties of the Holy One, it's just... alas!"

Everyone else stopped talking.

People of their level knew the emperor's difficulties.

To put it simply, the word "filial piety" crushes people to death.

No matter what the reason, this Feng Yuan offended the Supreme Emperor.

But it is clear that the emperor has tried.

Dropped two, but still in the first place.

Emperor Jingshun knew that they all had guesses, but no one could bring them to the table.

Otherwise, it will become a ceremony where the Supreme Emperor interferes with talent.

Compared with the possible party disputes, it is better to wrong the number one scholar first...

No, it's Tanhualang now.

Tanhualang Feng Yibo didn't know at this time that the champion had already been lost.

He and Zhou Jun waited for the roll call at the gate of the Gong Yuan.

After the palace examination gold list is announced, the chanting building of the Gongyuan will roll the name.

This time there is no need to rush forward.

The two of them were drinking tea in the carriage, waiting for the gold list to be released.

"Yibo must win three yuan this time! Jiang Ning's elders are waiting to be honored!"

Zhou Jun looked at Feng Yibo enviously, with a very sincere tone.

He was able to win the Gongshi, and he felt that he had performed exceptionally well.

Therefore, for this ranking, the psychological expectations are very low.

Nine times out of ten, they are from the top three and Jinshi.

But Feng Yibo has already won two yuan in a row.

This time I will win the number one prize again, that is Sanyuan Jidi.

By then, the entire Jiangning County had become famous all over the country.

People in the whole county have to hold their heads high when they go out, which is truly honorable.

"Brother Boyan, don't be joking. I have exhausted my strength to win two yuan. I don't know if I can get into the first one in this palace examination."

Although Feng Yibo was somewhat confident, he didn't dare to say that he would definitely win the number one prize.

Of course, he is a Huiyuan.

No matter how poorly he performed in the imperial examination, he could still get a top two.

If it is a practical talk, it can bet on the emperor's mind.

That one is almost inevitable.

As for Sanyuan Jidi, he had some expectations in his heart.

But also know.

Whether this ranking is good or not depends on the emperor's mood.

It's too subjective.

I think it is well written, but others may not necessarily see it that way.

People have filters for their own things.

Just like the novels written by many people, I feel that they are at least high-quality goods.

But in the end it was even difficult to sign a contract.

(Note: This is the author himself)
"Brother Boyan, judging by your state when you come out of the palace test, you must have performed extremely well."

"The level is limited, no matter how you play it, it will be the same!"

The two chattered about business for a while, and the gate of the Gongyuan opened over there.

First, the gold list was posted outside, and the name was also started upstairs for singing.

"In April of the tenth year of Jingshun, the Son of Heaven plans to test the tributes of the world!"

"The first class is awarded Jinshi Jidi, the second class is awarded Jinshi's background, and the third class is awarded with Jinshi's background."

"No.1 in Yijia, Liu Zheng, 31 years old, from Jiyang County, Jinan Prefecture, Shandong."

Hearing the guards draw their tones, they shouted one after another.

After each shout, the drums will be noisy for a while.

This is a treatment that only a first class can afford, and you have to shout it three times.

Second-tier and third-tier, it's over after just one pass.

"Yijia No.2, Yang Mingxin, 39 years old, from Qingjiang County, Linjiang Prefecture, Jiangxi Province."

Feng Yibo's heart sank when he heard the shouting that there was no one in the first and second ranks!

Just at this moment, the dog came back happily.

He shouted in his mouth: "Little master, you are a flower!"

He came back quickly after seeing it on the gold list.

It just so happened that Feng Yibo was also called out from the chanting building over there.

"No.3 in Yijia, Feng Yuan, eighteen years old, from Jiangning County, Yingtian Prefecture, Jiangnan."

"..."

After three times in a row, a big stone in Feng Yibo's heart finally fell to the ground.

"Take it!"

He smiled happily and gave Gouzi happy money.

I feel a little lost in my heart.

In the end, I failed to get three yuan!

However, this loss is also fleeting.

A first-class Jinshi, this background is enough.

In the future, the cabinet will also be included!
Zhou Jun, who was facing him, cupped his hands and said, "Congratulations to Tanhua Lang!"

His eyes were full of envy, and he turned to ask Gouzi again.

"Did you see my ranking?"

The dog scratched his head embarrassingly.

"Uncle Zhou, wait a moment, I'll go and see it again!"

Just as he was about to turn his head, Zhou Jun's tail drilled back and shouted:

"Congratulations, sir! No. 160 and [-]th in the Second Class! Congratulations, Grandpa! Born as a Jinshi in the Second Class!"

Zhou Jun seemed a little unbelievable after hearing this, and confirmed, "What? Did you see it clearly?"

Chang Sui took a breath, and said: "Master, I have read it carefully several times. Although you are the last in the second class, it is really you!"

"Hahahaha!"

Zhou Jun jumped out of the carriage with a big laugh, and let out a long cry: "Ancestor bless you!"

Feng Yibo also cupped his hands at him at this moment: "Congratulations, brother Boyan!"

The second-class Jinshi is much better than the third-class Jinshi.

At least when they get promoted in the future, they won't be despised by others.

"Happy together!"

Zhou Jun's hand-crowded posture was deformed, and his mouth couldn't be closed.

He was ranked last in the Gongshi examination, thank God.

I never thought that I could be a second-class Jinshi!

It was like a dream.

Zhou Jun was still a little worried, he dragged his attendant and said, "Follow me to confirm again."

Not long after he left, a handsome young man came towards him.

This person came over and bowed his hands to Feng Yibo.

"Feng Tanhua, this time Liu has accepted!"
