Ming Dynasty: My father Yongle, Forever Reigns Over Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 301: Chuanlu releases the list! Chen Dezun won 3 yuan in a row!

It was just dawn, and the white color of fish belly appeared in the east.

Yu Qian and Chen Xun left the restaurant and headed towards the Forbidden City.

Yesterday, someone delivered a brand new Jinshi officer uniform, and informed the two of them that the place of transfer was the Jinshen Hall, the palace examination venue.

Chuanlu refers specifically to the imperial examination era, a ceremony in which the roll call was announced during the imperial examination.

On the day when the rankings were announced in the palace examination, the emperor went to the palace to announce the results. The announcement was carried out by the pavilion gate and passed down the stairs. The guards announced the names in unison and shouted, which is called Chuanlu.

Yu Qian felt mixed emotions at this moment. He was wearing a brand new Jinshi robe. Although he was very happy, he always felt very uncomfortable.

For some reason, Yu Tingyi felt a little uneasy. He always felt that he might fall short in this imperial examination!

Compared to Yu Qian, who was mixed with joy and sorrow, Chen Xun was both excited and happy, and his whole person was a bit high-spirited.

After meeting with the prince, Prince Han, Chen Xun could basically confirm that he had been named on the gold list.

I just don’t know if there is such a way of luck that creates the miraculous legend of winning three yuan in a row!

Seeing how nervous his friend was, Yu Qian couldn't help but laugh and asked: Brother Dezun, how was your interview with the Crown Prince yesterday? Are you sure that you will win three yuan in a row and become the first scholar in the Ming Dynasty?!

Chen Xun smiled and shook his head, and said modestly: What number one? Huang Guan won six yuan in a row and was known as the 'Six Number One Scholar'. He is the real number one!

Brother Dezun, this is the Yongle Dynasty, so it's not fun to say this!

Yu Qian reminded him angrily, lamenting the bumpy career of the sixth number one scholar.

The so-called six poems refer to the six imperial examinations such as county examination, prefecture examination, hospital examination, township examination, general examination, palace examination and so on!

The number one scholar in the six imperial examinations refers to the number one scholar who ranked first in all six imperial examinations!

Throughout all dynasties, only one figure like Huang Guan emerged.

He was supposed to have a bright future, but a disaster directly changed the fate of this talented man.

At that time, Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen reformed the old system, and Huang Guan was appointed as the right servant and participated in important state affairs.

The current emperor of King Yan relied on his uncle, had an arrogant attitude, and refused to pay homage to Emperor Jianwen when he entered the court.

The ministers were afraid of his power and did not dare to speak. Only Huang Guan taught Yan King Zhu Di face to face, which made Zhu Di hold a grudge.

Then the Jingnan War broke out, and Huang Guan was ordered to rush to the upper reaches of the Yangtze River to urge help from various places.

As a result, the Yan army defeated the Southern army. King Zhu Di of Yan went straight to Huanglong and entered the Forbidden City, the imperial capital. He ordered to expose the crimes of Zuo Ban's treacherous civil servants. Huang Guan ranked sixth.

Huang Guan learned that the Jinchuan Gate had been lost and that the Yan army was defeated, so he chose to sacrifice himself and threw himself into the river.

Although His Majesty the Emperor no longer held the Huang Guan tribe accountable for their crimes afterwards, Huang Guan himself became a representative of the rebellious ministers. The Six No. 1 Scholars were not recognized by the imperial court.

Thinking about it, Yu Qian smiled and said: Brother Dezun, Huang Guan was the sixth number one scholar in the Hongwu Dynasty, and you are the three number one scholar in our Yongle Dynasty. You are not shabby!

Haha, I accept your good words!

When the two of them walked to the Meridian Gate of the Forbidden City, a hazy light gradually appeared in the east. The golden glazed tiles of the Forbidden City shone with golden light, full of magnificence, wealth, and imperial bearing.

At this moment, a large and dark group of people was standing outside the Forbidden City. Civil and military officials lined up in separate lines, forming two distinct camps.

As for the new Jinshi like Chen Xunyuqian, who was wearing a brand-new Jinshi uniform and a hairpin and black gauze hat, they stood together under the guidance of officials from the Ministry of Rites, and lined up behind the civil and military officials.

Each of the new Jinshis was inexplicably excited, and they could not restrain themselves from communicating in low voices.

After all, today is their happy day. They will be announced in the golden palace, named on the golden list, and become Jinshi Jinshi... This is the happy day when they have studied hard for more than ten years and received the fruits of success!

It was still early and the Meridian Gate had not yet opened, so it was not so serious.

All the new scholars were waiting and chatting, their excitement was palpable.

Of course, the hottest topic they discussed was who would belong to the top three, especially the number one pick!

Among them, because of yesterday's little news, the top ten in the palace examination have been announced, and everyone knows it.

However, because Chen Xunlian Zhongjie Yuan Huiyuan, he has become the subject of intense discussion at this moment.

After all, things like three-yuan success are not common in all dynasties. It is a great honor that can be remembered in history.

Seeing everyone looking at him from time to time and then talking in low voices, Chen Xun suddenly felt extremely embarrassed.

If this damn thing fails, wouldn’t I become the biggest joke in the world?

Prince, Prince of Han, please give me some strength!

If I, Chen Xun, win the first prize, I will definitely immediately deal with those gentry who have annexed their fields!

Yu Qian listened quietly to the discussion of the new scholars and found it extremely funny.

These guys, because they learned that their friend Chen Xun also chose the Nongsang test, they were very sure that he would never win the top prize.

The palace examination had ended for two full days, and all the candidates had more or less learned some inside information.

After all, many of the four hundred new Jinshi came from the families of high-ranking officials, poets and writers, or were related to certain imperial giants.

Using these connections, many new scholars obtained some information about the eight exam-reading ministers in a roundabout way, and even learned the standard answers to the four major exam questions.

For example, this Nongsang examination question tests the fields, not the food population!

For another example, the Jiaozhi exam questions were about Nanyang, not just a place like Jiaozhi.

As for those candidates who chose the Nongsang exam question but wrote about food and population, they are discussing why Chen Xun and Chen Ding are in the top ten, and even have a chance to win the first place.

After all, they had already checked with the top ten, and only Chen Xun and Chen Ding were chosen for the Nongsang exam.

This damn thing is so infuriating.

For the same exam questions, others can get into the top ten, but I am only at the bottom of the pile!

Logically speaking, the possibility that Chen Xun, our top pick in the last competition, would be the top pick in high school is not very high!

A new Jinshi wearing a new Jinshi uniform was the first to express his opinion. He was not very optimistic about Chen Xunneng winning three yuan in a row.

Brother Nian's words make sense. I think the reason why Chen Xun and Chen Ding were able to enter the top ten is probably because the imperial court deliberately distributed the quotas. After all, Nong Sang couldn't even enter one of the four major exams. Isn't that a slap in the face? ?”

A new Jinshi suddenly took over the conversation and conducted a wave of well-founded analysis, which instantly attracted the approval of all the Jinshi.

This...makes sense!

Yu Qian listened secretly and was so happy that he cried out!

If these Muggles knew that their friend Chen Xun had hit the mark, they would die of envy!

In the midst of everyone's discussion, time passed unconsciously.

Boom, boom, boom!

Soon the drums on the Meridian Gate Tower of the Forbidden City suddenly sounded, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net three drums sounded, tearing the silence of heaven and earth.

As soon as the drums sounded, the civil and military officials quickly lined up according to their rank and position, and waited patiently for the palace door to open.

At the reminder of the officials of the Ministry of Rites, Chen Xunyuqian and other four hundred new Jinshi also lined up in the order of the palace examination.

A moment later, the Meridian Gate opened wide, and everyone walked into the Meridian Gate in neat rows. All they saw along the way was the majestic palace, which shone in the sunlight, shocking the new scholars to the point of being speechless.

With great shock, everyone walked step by step to the Jinshen Hall and stood in order according to their official rank.

Chen Xunyuqian and others lined up behind the officials, waiting for the arrival of the Crown Prince and the Prince of Han.

Suddenly, the sound of a whip sounded like a thunderbolt in the clear sky!

Zhu Gaoxu and Big Fatty came hand in hand and sat on the left and right sides of the dragon chair.

All civil and military officials knelt down to salute, and the new Jinshi followed suit and also knelt down.

Wang Shanfu, the minister of Honglu Temple, held Zhou Li's Zhi in his hand and read it loudly.

After he finished reading it, Little Nose solemnly handed the palace examination gold list to Xie Gongbao, the Minister of Academic Affairs.

Jie Gongbao first bowed to the Crown Prince and the Prince of Han, then stood up and looked at the civil and military officials and the Xinke Jinshi. Behind him stood the singing officials from the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple.

First, Jie Gongbao started singing the song from the top of the list, and the officials of the Honglu Temple of the Ministry of Rites behind him sang the song one after another, from inside the temple to outside the temple, until it resounded throughout the Forbidden City!

Seeing this scene, all the new scholars were trembling with excitement!

Because Honglu's singing has begun!

In the twelfth year of Yongle, in the Jiawu Imperial Examination, I came first in the first class, the top scholar...Chen Xun!

Chen Xun: !!!

Yu Qian: ???

Your uncle!

Really hit?
