Chapter 291 Palace Exam
In the two days after the release of the rankings, Shen Yi and his family members were celebrating. However, the re-examination and palace examination will start on April [-]th. bible.

At this moment, it is impossible to improve myself academically. I just try to keep myself in good shape and get a good rank in the imperial examination.

April [-] came in a blink of an eye, and Shen Yi followed the rules, waiting at the gate of the imperial city before dawn, and officials from the Ministry of Rites led them into the Hall of Supreme Harmony for a retest.

The so-called re-examination of the Hall of Supreme Harmony is more formalistic. It is probably to test whether there are any fakes in this batch of tributes, or cheating. It is not very strict. Shen Yi and more than 200 people were arranged in Taihe In the palace, everyone distributed a few test papers, and then the ministers appointed by the imperial court came up with a few routine test questions.

The quality of this subject is still very good, and the re-examination went very smoothly.

There was a lunch in the palace at noon, and in the afternoon, several eunuchs came forward to lead everyone out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony and lined up to leave the palace.

This re-examination is not so much an exam, but in a sense, it is more like a "dress rehearsal" for the imperial examination.

After all, on the day of the imperial examination, one was going to see the emperor, and one must not lose courtesy.

When a group of tributes were sent to the gate of the palace, the sun had not completely set. At this moment, some of these people were eloquent and had already started to socialize with the people around them, or those who were close to each other began to report their families. After a while, some fellow countrymen, or those who were close to each other, gathered together in twos and eights, ready to have dinner together.

In the same year, it is not uncommon to see a group of retired soldiers.

After all, the [-] people out there will retire to the imperial court in the far future and become reserve officers for officials and lords. The small families are all newcomers with no foundation. If they want to get mixed up outside the imperial court, they will naturally have to help each other Helped each other.

Gong Shi can also avoid vulgarity.

I looked outside the crowd to see if I saw any acquaintances. Just as I was about to talk to a large group and retreat, I suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar middle-aged man.

He was said to be a middle-aged man, but in fact he was only 87 or [-] years old, wearing a Shen Yi uniform issued by the court, and was chatting with the people next to him.

Gong Shi stepped forward, bowed his hands to the middle-aged man, and then asked, "Is that Mr. Ying?"

The middle-aged man was taken aback for a moment, then looked Zhao Fei up and down, a little curious: "Listen to the accent, he is from Jiangdu, does he know you?"

Mr. Ying, who was also a student of Ganquan Academy, was the first in Mathematics before he won Juren, so he simply stayed in the academy to teach. It is worth mentioning that Chen Changming, the leader of the government examination for Gongshi this time, was the same student. student of Mr.

The master and apprentice came together for the Jiankang exam. Chen Changming came to Jiankang as an examiner to take the exam, and Mr. Ying came to Jiankang just to take the exam.

Mr. Ying, with a rather introverted personality, arrived in Jiankang at the beginning of last year, and had he met Gongshi outside the academy, so he naturally knew him.

Before saluting, Gongshi said with a smile: "Sir, you are a student Gongshi of Ganquan Academy. You are a student of Mr. Qin's door. You are also a student who joined Brother Changming, and you are also a Juren."

Mr. Ying was surprised when he heard this.

"He... you are a Gongshi? You have heard his name before."

I tugged at Gongshi's sleeve and said pleasantly, "Did he pass the test?"

Gongshi smiled very modestly: "It's a fluke."

Mr. Ying was so angry that he pulled Zhao Fei and asked, "Will he try to name a few names?"

The Gongshi sighed: "It's a fluke, more than 180 people."

"That's good."

The smile on Mr. Ying's face was a bit embarrassing, and I sighed: "You are barely a generation ahead of him, and you rank more than 140 in that subject."

Hearing that, Zhao Fei felt strange in her heart.

I looked at the list later, and before I saw my name, I continued to look, so naturally I saw Mr. Ying's name.

Zhao Fei comforted Mr. Ying for a few words, and then asked: "Is there no intermediate exam in our academy for this subject? Today is just right, let's have a meal together."

Mr. Ying took a look, and then said: "You don't remember there is one, let's look for it together."

The two searched outside the crowd, and found a 77-year-old man named Sun Li, who was also from Ganquan Academy, and all eight of them were natives of Jiangdu, so they went together to find a restaurant in Jiangdu for dinner. up.

The eight of us are of the same age, from the same township, and we can barely be regarded as classmates. We are the most solid allies outside the court. In terms of intimacy, we are second only to master, master and apprentice.

It is worth mentioning that, out of the eight people, Gongshi ranked the lowest in the examination, and the other two were in the 170th place.

That day was July 71th, eight people had a night of drinking together, and on the seventh day they each went home to rest for a day, and it was July [-]st.

It was time for the official palace test.

Because I have already gone through the process once, and the Gongshi didn’t say that at that time, I came to the gate of the palace to wait in the early morning. Before the officials of the Ministry of Rites finished counting, a few eunuchs led us back to Taihe temple.

When the first rays of sunlight shone back into the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the early morning, Gong Shi and others, including Shen Yi, had already taken their seats in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

At that time, the people outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony were very different from the re-examination the day after tomorrow.

Before His Highness Taihe, two rows of low tables have been set up, and a group of old men are sitting in front of the tables, with nervous expressions, and it is time to point to Gongshi and others.

Gong Shi and Shen Yi all sat in their seats in a well-behaved manner, daring to move.

Because we all understand the process of the palace examination in our hearts, the old men below have a small probability of being the prime ministers of Zhongshu Province, and...

Several hall officials of the Ministry of Rites.

Apart from those little fellows, there are no examiners, examiners, seal officials and the most important four examiners for the palace examination!
No matter what it is, to those quasi-retired soldiers, they are all low-key people, so naturally they dare to move.

There are not many Shen Yi, and it is probably the first time I have seen that kind of battle, relaxed thighs and stomach cramps, sitting under his own seat, his face is distorted with joy.

In comparison, Mr. Shen has met the emperor twice, and he can still maintain a relatively fierce attitude at this time. I sat in my seat, and it was time to look up at the big old men on the right below.

Those big old men, with a small probability, are the prime ministers of Zhongshu Province. They recognized their faces at that time, and if they meet outside the city someday in the future, they will not recognize them.

Just when Zhao Fei was thinking wildly, the little eunuch was low-minded and hurriedly retreated to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Before the little eunuch walked back to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, he first glanced at the crowd of Shen Yi, then paused for a while under Gong Shi, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty is here—"

As soon as I finished speaking, His Majesty the Emperor withdrew from the Hall of Supreme Harmony surrounded by a crowd.

At this moment, all beings are equal.

Regardless of whether it was the big old men sitting next to him or the Gongshi and other Shen Yi, they all stood up obediently, then knelt down on the ground, bowing their heads to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, wait..."

"Meet Your Majesty."

The Great Emperor has been in power for one year, and that is already the eighth imperial examination I have gone through. Although the last two times I just went through the motions, I am already familiar with the road.

I stepped down from the throne, looked around at everyone, and spoke wonderfully.

"Everyone, stand up."

I looked at the seven hundred young Shen Yi who were kneeling again, with a smile on my face: "Qing and others also got up."

　Learn from the pain, the pace must be fast in the future!
