Chapter 465 Palace Exam
"Isn't it suitable?" Song Ziying's lips showed a smug smile, "The girl from the Li family is only the daughter of a small family, and has no power or power in Beijing. It is their family's heaven that such a woman can enter the palace to serve His Majesty. It is a great blessing, and my aunt can handle her better, so I am not afraid that she will be favored in the future, and she will have some thoughts that she shouldn't have."

After listening to her daughter's words, Qin also felt that it was very reasonable, nodded and praised: "As you said, it is indeed very suitable, but we still need to inquire carefully. I don't know if this girl has a marriage contract."

"It doesn't matter, as long as you are unmarried, you are fine. Next month, my aunt will hold a flower viewing banquet at Wanmei Villa, and she is about to host a noble lady in Beijing. I just happen to introduce this girl to my aunt." After making an overall plan, he said with a smile.

Li Mei'er didn't know that she was already being missed by others at the moment, but she just went down the mountain with her family, and was very puzzled about what happened just now.

"The girl from the Song family is so strange. With such an identity, why does she ask my Mei Meier to ask things, and she also said that she is destined to fall in love with her, and she falls in love with her whenever we meet." Mrs. Jiang obviously has an impression of Song Ziying. Not very good, said with a frown.

"It's hard to say. Last time, the girl from the Sun family also said that she had a good relationship with our Mei Meier. Mei Meier went to the Earl's Mansion last time. The two of them got along very well, maybe it was our Mei Meier. Meier is very popular." Zhou Hanju didn't think too much about it, he just thought that Li Meier was attractive.

Li Meier shared Jiang's opinion, she hesitated for a moment before saying, "This Miss Song is different from Sister Sun."

"What's the difference?" Zhou Hanyu asked. She had seen both girls before. Although their temperaments were a little different, they were both noble daughters from prominent families.

"The way Miss Song looked at me was a bit weird. She didn't seem to be looking at a person, but rather an object." Li Meier thought for a while, and then she came up with a more appropriate metaphor.

"I don't think that Song is a good person. He keeps staring at my girl with a pair of evil eyes. He must have no good intentions!" Mrs. Li made the final conclusion.

Then he told his girl, "If she invites you in a post, don't go, I don't know what kind of idea she has!"

Li Meier laughed when she heard the words, thinking that although her grandmother has never read a book, she is old and smart and has always been very accurate in judging people. If she says she is not a good person, then she must not be a good person.

"Don't worry, grandma, I'm not the kind of person who clings to the powerful. As long as I don't want to take the initiative to befriend that Miss Song, such a noble girl will definitely not invite me again after being rejected by me a few times."

"Hey, I hope your father and Shanqing Palace will have a good result in the examination. If you appoint an official earlier, our family will finally have some security." Jiang sighed.There are too many nobles in the capital, and they are not something people like them can afford to offend.

The fact that the family met the Song family in Shangxiang was quickly covered up by Li Yan and Jiang Shanqing's return from the palace examination.

Mrs. Li and Mrs. Jiang took Weng and son-in-law to ask a lot about the situation of the palace examination. Seeing that their expressions were as usual, they must have performed well.

Mrs. Li is more concerned about what is going on in the palace, and whether the two of them have seen the emperor.

"Li Yan replied with a smile: "The palace is very big and grand, but I was very nervous at the time, and I didn't dare to look around when I went in. I just saw some palace walls and tile halls, which are actually similar to those in the capital. Those big houses are not far behind. "

"How can it be similar? It's the imperial palace, where the emperor lives. If I can enter the palace in this life, it will be really worth it." Mrs. Li envied her son to enter the palace, and said yearningly.

"Grandmother, then you just hope that my father will be promoted vigorously. When he becomes a big official, you will be able to get the imperial order. I heard that the imperial order above the fifth rank can enter the palace to participate in the celebration on major festivals." Li Meier Said with a smile on the side.

"Oh, it's too early to say these things. Your father has just finished the palace examination and hasn't been awarded an official yet." Although Mrs. Li said this, she looked at her son with longing eyes. His in-laws wife is now an eighth-rank Anren, and I don't know when her old man will have a royal order.I heard that Gaoming can still have a salary every month, which is really famous and beneficial.

Li Yan was under a lot of pressure from Mrs. Li, thinking that he had to work harder, otherwise his mother would look at him like this every day, and he couldn't bear it.

Not long after the palace examination, Jiang Shanqing was summoned by His Majesty the Emperor.

It is absolutely not a bad thing to be summoned by the Holy Spirit after the palace examination!
Jiang Yanzhi was overjoyed and said, "Shanqing must be among the top ten." He also told Jiang Shanqing to prepare well and strive for a good ranking.

You know, the top ten is also different. The No. 4 pick is the second best in the list. This is the top three in the list, and everyone has always boasted about it. No.5 was released on the first list, and it was passed on for the second list.From No.10 to No.[-], it is no different from ordinary second-best Jinshi.

Now that we have reached this point, if we can still win a good ranking, we must fight for a good ranking.

Naturally, Jiang Shanqing is also preparing for the exam carefully. He has studied for so many years just to get a title on the gold list. Now that his dream is about to come true soon, he is still a little excited.

On that day, the top ten Gongsheng still entered the palace wearing shirts, waiting for His Majesty to summon them.

Jiang Shanqing looked at everyone quietly, and saw that besides him, the youngest was in his twenties, and even in terms of appearance, he was no better than himself.

Jiang Shanqing was a little relieved, but especially especially pulled out his waist again, and then, thanking himself for these years, he got up early every day to exercise his body, and insisted on eating supper at night. Although he was the youngest among the ten, he was not the shortest, which made him more confident.

Jiang Shanqing thought wildly, ten people lined up in two rows, followed the servants into the imperial study room, they were not allowed to raise their heads, first kowtowed to His Majesty the emperor, and only after the servants called out did they get up.

The old emperor is not alone in the imperial study room, there are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and several other adults on the side.

The old emperor is over fifty years old, but he is well maintained. His black hair is not a trace of gray, but at his age, his figure is unavoidably fattened, and his chubby face lacks some of the majesty of his youth , it is a little more kind, and it doesn't look very scary.

Prince Li Chengqi has a rare good looks, tall and tall, with a clear temperament, his appearance is only four or five points similar to the old emperor, and he should be more like the current empress. Can't see emotion.

The old emperor glanced at the Gongsheng students, and said slowly, "Your articles are all good, and I can't choose which one to choose. How about this, I will ask another question, and you can try to answer one or two."
