After the first assistant's wife is reborn

The garden is full of fragrance, and when hundreds of flowers are in full bloom, the three-year nine-day Chunwei has come to a perfect curtain call.

Immediately after the palace examination kicked off again.

The number of people admitted this time was the largest since the founding of the Liang Kingdom, and the number of tribute students in the palace examination was also the largest. The top [-] tribute students were admitted to enter the palace examination.

This is Chen Xiao's first imperial examination after he ascended the throne.

He is about to select talents from all over the country for him and inject fresh blood into the governance of the Liang Kingdom. Chen Xiao attaches great importance to this.

The palace examination is different from the spring and autumn examinations. The examination place is in the imperial palace, in Fengtian hall, and the examiner is the emperor.

Ding Siyu arrived early, and was led all the way to Fengtian Palace by the little eunuch in the palace.

Although he said he came early, almost half of the people who participated in the palace examination today have already arrived.

Ding Siyu glanced around, and found that almost all the people in the palace examination were in their early twenties, and only a few looked to be in their thirties. Those people stood inside, full of sense of disobedience.

Ding Siyu touched his nose boredly, looked up and found an acquaintance walking over, a smile immediately appeared on Ding Siyu's face.

"Brother Cui!" Ding Siyu called Cui Yuan.

"Brother Siyu." Cui Yuan paused slightly, then raised his foot and walked towards her.

As soon as the two of them spoke, they immediately attracted the attention of everyone around them.

There is no other reason. Ding Siyu and Cui Yuan are the most handsome people who entered the palace examination this time. The two people from Zhilan Yushu stood together and immediately turned everyone around them into their foils. It was too attractive. attention.

"Long time no see, how is Brother Cui?"

In other words, since the two decided on Chunwei, it was rare to see each other.

They are all shut up at home and study hard like a "head hanging from a beam and a cone stabbing their thighs".

Even if he went to the Tribute Academy for the exam, he still couldn't catch up.

Ding Siyu looked at Cui Yuan with a smile, he knew that Cui Yuan entered the palace examination, because in the previous Chunwei, he was the first, and Cui Yuan was second.

The two originally decided to give up their official careers, but now they are together again.

Not only that, but also ranked first and second.

"Brother! Brother Siyu, you..."

"The emperor is here!" Cui Yuan was about to say something, but the eunuch's shrill voice resounded through the entire Fengtian Hall.

Ding Siyu and him looked at each other, the two of them paused at the same time, and then they knelt down together with all the people who participated in the palace examination.

"Get up!" A touch of bright yellow passed in front of Ding Siyu.

Immediately, the emperor had already walked to the main hall of Fengtian Temple and sat down.

"Everyone who is here today is a person of real talent and learning, I am so relieved..." Chen Xiao was neither slow nor sick, majestic yet gentle.

Ding Siyu raised his eyelids slightly, and glanced at the hall quietly.

Look at this new emperor's appearance as a dragon and a phoenix!

Immediately, Eunuch Yuan Bao read out the imperial decree, and two clever little eunuchs put up a huge shelf, and a scroll was hung on the shelf. On this scroll was the content of today's palace examination.

The Palace Examination not only tests their writing skills, but also their ability to respond.

Only then did Ding Siyu notice that in Fengtian Hall, apart from the emperor, there were several other officials standing. Because they all lowered their heads and kept their eyes down, they made no sound at all, so they didn't attract much attention under the emperor's power. .

"Swipe!" Ding Siyu said in a daze, the holding scroll had already been opened.

She looked up and saw three large characters written on it——

The way of the country.

Ding Siyu paused, he didn't expect that the proposals given by the emperor seemed to be extremely simple, but when he thought about it carefully, they were extremely difficult, because simplicity only had a few words, so there wasn't even a scope, and the topic was extremely broad, making it hard to understand. answer.

The people around him naturally thought the same way.

Afterwards, Eunuch Yuan Bao brought up a pure gold star anise incense burner with a thin stick of incense stuck in it.

"In the 66th year of the Liang Dynasty, the palace examination, start!" With the order in Yuan Bao's shrill voice, the people around went to the table that had already been arranged, and began to write hard.

Ding Siyu was half a beat behind, being the last to sit down.

However, his ranking is the first, so he is the closest to the emperor.

It has to be said that Ding Siyu was lucky.

Usually by the side of his father, brother, grandfather, and Wei Ziqian, he often heard them discuss state affairs and government affairs in front of him, and their discussions on abuses really benefited him a lot.

After the intensive examination, Ding Siyu was in the front position, and the emperor noticed it immediately when he asked to pay close attention to the examination.

The young man in front of him was Wei Ziqian's brother-in-law and the adopted grandson of General Ding.

What is this kid thinking?
He didn't want to take the imperial examination, but wanted to do business.

Could it be possible to regard me as those fatuous emperors?

Afraid that their Xia family's meritorious service will overwhelm the master?

Chen Xiao is speechless
If it weren't for Wei Ziqian, I would have almost lost talents useful to Liang Guo.

Chen Xiao picked up his examination paper and looked at it. He was very insightful in citing scriptures and classics. He could see that there was indeed a lot of gap between those disciples from poor families compared with him.

Immediately, the long and narrow eyebrows were lightly raised, and Chen Xiao was pleasantly surprised. She didn't expect that Ding Siyu could still do practical things!

Chen Xiao looked at the beautiful and straight young man in front of him, and was amazed in his heart, this Xia family really knows how to give birth, each one is more beautiful than the other!

Without thinking about it, he directly appointed Ding Siyu as the number one scholar.

Ding Siyu's heart was agitated, he knelt down and thanked him loudly.

Cui Yuan did not give in too much, and ranked second as an example.

No.3 is a poor student from Xuzhou, and Suning, who is not bad, is Tanhualang.

Hearing the news about Ding Siyu's high school early in the morning, Xia Sichan was so happy that she couldn't find Bei.

Father Xia and mother Xia cried with joy, and the old general Na Ding smiled while stroking his beard.
Needless to say, from now on, the Xia family has firmly established itself as a top-ranking family, and it will definitely not fall in 30 or [-] years!
······
Over the years, there has been a custom of the Zhuangyuan Lang riding a horse around the capital. This is to let the people know the new champion, and it also means celebrating the whole country.

Whenever someone is admitted to the number one scholar, there will be people rushing out to watch in the streets and alleys.

Even more courageous girls will hold delicate and beautiful flowers in spring and throw them to the champion man to show their love. This is also the moment that every scholar dreams of, and it can be regarded as the longest face in life. .

This year is no exception.

When a few came out of Fengtian Hall, there were people waiting for them outside.

Ding Siyu was riding a snow-white horse with a big red flower on his body, Cui Yuan joked: "Your brother really looks like a groom."

"Cough," Ding Siyu glared at Cui Yuan.

Chen Xiao was speechless: What is this kid thinking?He didn't want to take the imperial examination, but wanted to do business.Is it possible to regard me as those fatuous emperors and be afraid of their Xia family's great achievements?
