I am the carpenter king

It is human nature to gossip. People who are doing it suddenly see that there is a lot of excitement, and there is no sound of conversation just now.The original storyteller also shut his mouth, obviously he knew that these people were more interested in things over there.

Many people know these people. Wen Zhenmeng is a very famous person, and there are very few people who have participated in the test who do not know Wen Zhenmeng.Sun Zhixie on one side is also very famous, with rich family wealth and very talented and famous.Although it may not be possible to enter the first class, there is still no problem in the second class.

Everyone was interested in watching the excitement, and the results of the exam hadn't come out yet, so it's natural to have such a thing as a pastime!

Looking at the provocative Sun Zhixie, Ni Yuanlu and the others all frowned, with a look of disgust flashing across their faces.Not many people have a good impression of this person, and it is really annoying to the extreme.

"This brother is right. The imperial court's talent ceremony is naturally a selection of talents. Before the results are announced, no one can say for sure." Several people hadn't spoken yet, and a thin young man had already left. When he came over, his face was a little pale, but his eyes kept shining.

With a smile on his face, he came to Sun Zhixie's side, cupped his fists slightly, and said respectfully: "My lord, Wang Duo, Caozi Juesi. I just heard what Xiongtai said. The introduction is quite deep, and he is really a role model for my generation. ah!"

Looking up and down at the person who came, Sun Zhixie also laughed, squinting his eyes and said: "Xiongtai is a dignified appearance, but he is a dragon and a phoenix among people! My next grandson Zhixie, the grass word is Longfu. I have to meet Xiongtai today, really But Sansheng is lucky!"

Seeing the two people being polite to each other, Lu Xiangsheng frowned even tighter. There are such people everywhere.At this moment, a thought flashed in his mind, these people's stereotyped essays are good, but can they really be good officials?Can they really benefit the common people?Even enter the court and rule?

A thought suddenly flashed in Lu Xiangsheng's mind.Perhaps the imperial examination system should be changed, but he was immediately taken aback by his own thoughts.He quickly suppressed this thought and reached out to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Isn't this Brother Ni? Why are you still in the capital? You've already married a lovely wife, so you should go home! It would be a beautiful thing for the husband and wife to return home!" It seemed as if they had just seen Ni Yuanlu.Sun Zhixie looked at Ni Yuanlu with a smile, with a heavy sarcasm on his face.

Standing up slowly, anger flashed across Ni Yuanlu's face, but she still clasped her fists at Sun Zhixie and said with a smile, "Isn't this Brother Sun? Didn't you bring a concubine with you today? I heard that The second time my grandson came to Beijing, he had already taken six concubines. He was a role model for my generation. My younger brother thinks that my brother should go to high school. After all, there are so many concubines, how can I plant one. When the full moon wine is held next year. Don't forget to inform the little brother, the little brother will support me!"

Ni Yuanlu's voice was not loud, but the hall was very quiet at this moment, and the words reached the ears of everyone present.Everyone was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Sun Zhixie with teasing faces, and all laughed and whispered.

"You're talking nonsense, you're spitting blood!" Sun Zhixie looked at Ni Yuanlu viciously, and yelled loudly.

"Some people don't know why they came to the capital! I think my generation has suffered for ten years. After going through all kinds of hardships, what is the meaning of reading sage books? We are not for fame and wealth. We are not for promotion and wealth, but for the world The common people, the people of the Li people. The emperor is kind to you, and the people are supportive, so why not let us go to this world for a while!" Standing up was a young man in his 20s, and pointed at the people around him. hand over.He smiled warmly.

While talking, this person walked to Lu Xiangsheng's table, bowed respectfully, and said with a serious face: "I'm Wang Qiaonian, is this Mr. Lu Xiangsheng?"

Lu Xiangsheng was slightly taken aback.Unexpectedly, this young man knew him, so he quickly stood up and replied, "It's Lu, I wonder what this little brother can teach you?"

"Brother Lu misunderstood. My younger brother heard about your father's Lingtang, and I was very grateful. I saw Brother Lu today, and I can't wait to get acquainted! Your father's Lingtang is a model for our generation, and his name will naturally go down in history." Wang Qiaonian glanced at his grandson. Zhi Xie said with the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "Although some people read the books of sages and sages, they are greedy for beauty. They come to Beijing and rush to sing and sing every day, and there are groups of concubines. If such a person becomes an official, it must be another one." Corrupt officials in the fish and meat village."

Sun Zhixie's complexion changed suddenly, he looked at Wang Qiaonian coldly, and opened his mouth to say something.

"Brother, I would like to advise you that the current emperor is wise and powerful, and sage is unparalleled. Since he took the throne, he has been close to the people and diligent in administration, inspected officials, and cleaned up the officialdom. If you don't have a heart of worrying about the country and the people, I advise you not to If you go in, the officialdom will most likely be your guillotine!" As he said that, Wang Qiaonian's eyes flashed coldly, with a bit of chill.

Lu Xiangsheng, who was standing aside, frowned suddenly. It seemed that this young man was not simple!It may be because of his family background, but judging by his appearance, he doesn't know how to fight, and he doesn't know what his family does.

Pointing at a few people, Sun Zhixie's face suddenly turned ferocious, he flicked his sleeves fiercely, and said loudly: "Shang Gaoshuichang, let's wait and see!" After speaking, he strode down, Immediately there were boos from upstairs.

The turmoil came and went quickly, and soon the storyteller continued to say that the scholars guessed each other, some of them were talented and would definitely win the first prize, and some said that another person would be the champion of the examination, and even won the first prize. The possibility of getting the champion is not low.

The number of gongshi who passed the examination was basically equal to that of the top three jinshi. It was no problem for gongshi to pass the examination, the key was their ranking.

First-class Jinshi and rank, the top three are named Dingjia, that is, the number one scholar, the second place, and Tanhua, and they are directly awarded to the Hanlin editor. After the Yingzong Dynasty, the practice "non-Hanlin does not enter the cabinet", awarded the Hanlin editor, and will become a cabinet bachelor in the future The possibility is very high, it can be regarded as half a foot into the cabinet.

From the background of the second-class jinshi, young and talented people are selected to enter the Hanlin Academy as "Shu Ji Shi". After three years of assessment, they are called "disbanded halls". Like Sanding Jia, he has the qualifications to join the cabinet in the future, but the time is three years longer.The other Shu Jishi, who either went to serve as the head of the six departments, served as the censor in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, or went to the local magistrate, were much worse than those who stayed in the museum.

The top three came from the same background as Jinshi, which is another level of difference. Except for a few outstanding people, basically they can't be Shujishi, but can only be pedestrians, Taichang, Futui officials, prefects, county magistrates and other officials.

At that time, Sun Chengzong, the first assistant emperor of the dynasty, was No. 2 in Yijia, that is, the second place in the list, and he worked as a Hanlin editor for ten years.Now it is the No. 1 of the Ming Dynasty, and no one can beat it.

There are so many tributes here, who doesn't want to become the second Sun Chengzong of the Ming Dynasty, and also be the first assistant?In the future, becoming the first assistant emperor's teacher will not only leave a name in history, but also give power to the government and the public.

It's just that they don't know their rankings at this moment, and the examiner team composed of cabinet scholars, ministers of rites and ministers will select the top three rankings, and then the examiners will read their examination papers to the emperor Listen, Emperor Apocalypse personally selects the disciples of the Son of Heaven.If Emperor Tianqi is not satisfied, he can return the test paper and choose again.

Although everyone has returned to the way it was just now and they are all talking about each other, but there are still many people looking at the table like Lu Xiangsheng.After all, this place has just been in the limelight, and some good believers have even begun to inquire about the identities of several people.

However, Lu Xiangsheng and the others obviously didn't care about this, and after introducing each other, they sat down to chat.

"Brother Lu, I don't know if I should ask you a question or not?" Looking at Lu Xiangsheng, Wang Qiaonian said with a bit of embarrassment on his face and a bit of anxiety in his tone.

"Brother Wang, you're welcome. If you have something to say, it's okay to say it!" Lu Xiangsheng was also very curious about this person, and he felt a little close to him, so he couldn't help asking in a deep voice.

Wang Qiaonian pondered for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Lu's family has a long history, I don't know if he will be interested in military affairs in the future? Mr. Sun, the chief assistant of the dynasty, is good at military affairs. If Brother Lu has this thought, he can come to the door after the palace examination. study!"

Hearing Wang Qiaonian's words, Lu Xiangsheng was taken aback for a moment. Naturally, he wanted to do something well, and it would be best if he could go to the border town.Regarding Wang Qiaonian's statement, Lu Xiangsheng was also tempted, and it was naturally his wish to be able to worship under Sun Chengzong.

But Lu Xiangsheng knew in his heart that Sun Chengzong was the teacher of Emperor Taichang and Emperor Tianqi, and no one wanted to worship under him.But that was easier said than done, he smiled wryly and shook his head, Lu Xiangsheng said with helplessness in his tone: "We will talk about this matter later! Now we are waiting for news!"

Seeing Lu Xiangsheng's lonely face, Wang Qiaonian was also a little embarrassed, smiled embarrassedly, and said in an apologetic tone: "Brother Lu, I was abrupt for a while, I hope Brother Lu will not be offended!"

"Brother Wang, you're being polite!" Lu Xiangsheng also clasped his fists, but his expression was still a little sad.

Several people were thinking about their own thoughts, no one was talking, and slowly fell into silence.

But soon there was a voice from downstairs, the real sound of a gong, followed by a human shout: "Happy news!"

Everyone fell silent, and some people ran to the bottom of the stairs to look, and one can imagine the urgency in their hearts.

Not long after, the person who announced the good news ran up, with a smile on his face, and shouted loudly: "Which one is Mr. Ni Yuanlu, Shangyu, Zhejiang?"

Standing up tremblingly, Ni Yuanlu's beard was trembling uncontrollably, the corners of his mouth twitched for a long while before he said, "I am!"

The person who announced the good news quickly ran over, saluted Ni Yuanlu, and said loudly: "Congratulations, Mr. Ni, No. 3 in the first class of high school, Tanhua!" (To be continued...)
