Prehistoric: A Stable Life, Starting From the Journey To the West

I saw the official scolding the cheering scholars, and then began to read the list of Jiabang.

"The tenth place on the first list, Cheng Ying, Cheng Zongwen"

"The ninth place in the first list, Fan Hai, Fan Wenzhuo"

"..."

"The third place on the first list, Lu Shao, Lu Xiuyuan!"

"Second place on the first list, Cui Ming, Cui Mingzhi!"

"No. 1 on the list, Chen E, Chen Guangrui!"

After all, he is a top-ranking talent, and he is also the ten most outstanding (the largest in the background) in the imperial examination.

Therefore, when the ceremonial officials announced the list of the top ten top rankings, there was a clear difference in treatment.

Not only the smiles on his face were much more, but he also read out the names and words of the top three men.

Name, name, these two words should be read separately.

The name is the name, the word is the word, and cannot be confused.

For example, Chen E, the first on the list, has Chen as the surname, E as the first name, and Guangrui as the character.

"However, Chen E, Chen Guangrui, the name sounds familiar, seems to have heard it somewhere."

"Could it be that this guy is really a historical celebrity?"

Chen Qi couldn't help frowning after hearing the words "Chen E Chen Guangrui", the champion of the new division.

He always felt that the name was very familiar, but he couldn't remember who this Chen Guangrui was.

I just instinctively felt that this name was unusual, it seemed to represent something, it was very important!

No way, in this period of Tang Dynasty, if you have to tell him about Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Yuchigong, Zhangsun Wuji and others, he will definitely know.

No matter how bad it is, he is also familiar with who is Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang.

Only this Chen Guangrui, he really can't remember which historical figure he is!

"Congratulations to all the students who are in the middle. Three days later, the Holy Master will personally summon you in the Taiji Temple to hold a palace examination. You need to prepare in advance, so don't miss the time."

After the ceremony official finished reading the list, he smiled and bowed his hands to the scholars in front of him, reminding him.

After he finished speaking, he left in a leisurely manner, leaving only a group of scholars who were either smiling or dejected.

When Chen Qi heard the reminder from the official, he couldn't even think about who Chen Guangrui was, he smiled confidently, then turned and left.

He still has important things to do, how can he care about Chen Guangrui.

......

after an hour!

Chen Qi appeared in front of a tall mansion with a generous gift.

This is the residence of Yang Xuan, the minister of households of the current dynasty, and it is also where the head of the Yang family, the top family in the world today, is located.

"I've seen Young Master Biao!"

When Chen Qi's figure appeared in front of Yang's residence, the two servants guarding the door of Yang's residence hurriedly saluted and said hello.

"No need to be polite, but my uncle is in the mansion?"

Chen Qi asked with a smile, without any pretence.

When the servant heard Chen Qi's question, he immediately smiled and said, "Master Biao came at the right time, and the master has just returned to the house."

Hearing that Yang Xuan had just returned to the mansion, Chen Qi smiled even more, greeted the two little servants, and entered the Yang mansion with the gifts prepared in advance.

The third chapter is the palace test, what should a rich country do? (for collections, for flowers)

Minister of the Household, Yang Xuan!

Uncle, Young Master Biao!

It is enough to explain the relationship between Chen Qi and Yang Xuan.

Of course, this relationship is not as close as outsiders think, at most cousins.

Chen Qi's original mother was born in the top family of Yang's family, and belonged to the sideline of the branch, and was barely Yang Xuan's cousin.

Family marriage is a very common thing in this era.

With this level of relationship, the Chen family where the original body is located will also climb the big tree of the Yang family, the top family in the Tang Dynasty.

Then Father Chen gave a generous gift to do some work up and down, and borrowed the strength of the Yang family to gain the status of a jinshi for the original body.

As for the true level of the original body, does it have the strength of Jinshi?

Does this matter?

It's a pity that the original body was a short-lived ghost. Just after the imperial examination, he died for some reason.

Then Chen Qi, a traveler with the same name and surname, appeared, not only inheriting the Jinshi status that the original body finally acquired, but also the identity of the original body.

The only thing that made him feel strange was the original cause of death.

No disease or disaster, he just passed the imperial examination.

This is somewhat abnormal.

Unfortunately, he only accepted part of the original body's memory, and there is no original body's cause of death in the memory.

As a result, the cause of Yuan Shi's death became a mystery, which made Chen Qi feel a sense of uneasiness and a little uneasy.

Chen Qi shook his head, suppressing his uneasiness. Under the leadership of the housekeeper of Yang's house, he finally saw Yang Xuan, who is currently the minister of household in the Tang Dynasty.

"Nephew sees uncle!"

After Chen Qi saw Yang Xuan, he respectfully saluted.

"Oh, is Ziming here?"

In Yang's study, Yang Xuan nodded slightly after seeing Chen Qi.

Ziming is the name of Chen Qi.

Chen Qi, Chen Ziming!

Yang Xuan was quite satisfied with his distant nephew, so he didn't hesitate to praise him: "Yes, it's not worth your father's efforts to win the jinshi."

This is straightforward, but it is also an undeniable fact.

If it weren't for Father Chen's management and dedication, it would be impossible for Yuanshen to become a jinshi in the middle.

Of course, just relying on Father Chen's management efforts is definitely not enough, and the most important part is the uncle in front of him.

Without this high-ranking uncle, Father Chen would not be able to manage a single jinshi even if he managed up and down.

After all, there are so many aristocratic families in the world, and it's not that your family knows how to manage up and down. Whether you can succeed or not depends on the backstage.

"This is also thanks to my uncle's teaching. If it wasn't for my uncle's guidance, how could my nephew be able to do it."

Chen Qi pretended to be grateful. It wasn't that he never worked in the workplace in his previous life. He still knew how to answer this question.

Yang Xuan was obviously satisfied with Chen Qi's answer, nodded with a smile, and then pointed: "Although the world is barely peaceful today, there are still many hidden dangers, especially money and food, which is the most worrying thing today, three days later. It is very likely that the palace exam has something to do with it, Ziming might as well pay more attention to this.”

When Chen Qi heard the words, he smiled slightly, and then thanked him: "Thank you uncle for pointing out, nephew understands!"

Isn't it just a lack of money, simple!

At that time, a top, middle and bottom strategy will definitely be a blockbuster and shock the entire court.

......

Three days passed in a flash, and the palace exam was held as scheduled.

At this time, just after the fifth watch, the sky outside was still dark, and the moon was still hazy on the horizon and reluctant to leave.

Under the moonlight, Chen Qi rushed to the gate of the palace and waited for the beginning of the palace examination.

This palace test was held in the Taiji Hall of the Datang Palace, which was also the place where the present day and the civil and military officials dealt with the government affairs of the court.

Putting the venue of the palace test in the Taiji Hall is enough to show that the imperial court attaches great importance to this palace test.

When Chen Qi arrived at the gate of the palace, it was already crowded with people.

All the scholars dressed in clean and neat Jinshi uniforms were excitedly waiting in front of the palace gate to step into the political center of the Tang Dynasty.

It was one small step in their life, but one giant leap in their life.

The palace exam only ranks and does not brush people, these people can pass the palace exam steadily no matter how they take the test, at least they are from the same jinshi background.

Even if they are not valued by the emperor, at least they will be distributed to six divisions to be a chief or sent to a local to be a county magistrate.

No matter what the situation, if they take this step, their lives will be the pinnacle that ordinary people look up to. In the future, the ups and downs of the Tang Dynasty will be accompanied by them, how can they not be excited.

Knowing the exam questions, Chen Qi stood confidently in the crowd and merged into a group of jinshi waiting for the palace exam, waiting for the beginning of the palace exam.

After a while, a palace attendant appeared and guided the candidates to the door of Tai Chi Hall.

"An audience with Xuanen Kogons."

The announcement of the decree came one after another from the palace.

Afterwards, the officials of the Ministry of Rites brought Chen Qi and the others in a neat line and entered the Taiji Hall with the inner guard who announced the decree.

At this time, there were already many officials in the Taiji Hall.

They were dressed in crimson, cyan, and green official robes, embroidered with birds and beasts, and scrutinized the thirty-six attendees with the eyes of their younger generation.

"My ministers and others pay their respects to the sage, long live your majesty, long live, long live!"

After Chen Qi entered the Taiji Hall, he mixed with a group of Jinshi and respectfully saluted the figure on the dragon chair.

At this time, in the Taiji Hall, the civil and military officials had retreated to both sides of the palace, and only thirty-six pictures were arranged in an orderly manner in the center of the hall.

This is specially prepared for the thirty-six jinshi candidates in the field. There is a high-quality pen, ink and rice paper on the desk, just waiting for the candidates to sit down and answer the questions.

"Be flat." A rather majestic voice came from the hall.

This was the first time Chen Qi had heard the voice of the current son Li Shimin. After hearing it, many Gongsheng trembled with excitement. After being pushed a few times, they hurriedly stood up and stood in the hall respectfully.

Because he was standing at the back of the thirty-six jinshi, the distance was a little far, so Chen Qi didn't see Tang Taizong Li Shimin's appearance, and could only vaguely see a tall and majestic figure sitting there.

The aura is majestic and powerful, wearing a dragon robe, like a real dragon coiled on a dragon chair, making people dare not look directly.

"It's Sui Enke, Bai Rui is a sign, you are the future of my Tang Dynasty, don't let my expectations down!"

Li Shimin, Emperor of Zhenguan, said a few hadiths after the salutes by the tributes. In short, this time Enke is in line with the will of God, and you should also obey the sky and the people, and don't live up to my expectations.

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he nodded to the inner servant standing beside him.

Then the inner servant held the apricot-yellow cloth inscription in front of the imperial case in both hands, and walked down to the lower hall and handed it over to a middle-aged official.

After that, there was a burst of drum music and a whip.

Chen Qi once again followed everyone in the hall to salute Li Shimin who was sitting high on the dragon chair.

After everyone saluted, Li Shimin slowly left the Taiji Hall.

After all, the palace exam will last for the whole morning. As the emperor of a country, how can it be possible to sit here and wait.

After Li Shimin left, the important officials in the hall also left one after another, and went to other halls of the palace to handle political affairs.

Only the remaining officials watched the candidates answer the questions.

"It's a palace exam on the day, and there is only one article on the strategy. The time is two hours. The palace exam has its own rules.

After all the Gong Shilie sat down, the officials of the Ministry of Rites gave a brief exhortation and began to distribute the test papers for this palace examination.

After Chen Qi received the test paper, he lightly rubbed his tired forehead, which caused dizziness, and then slowly opened the test question in his hand.

I saw that there were only five big characters on the topic of the argument: "What should a rich country do?".

Chapter 4 Datang is short of money, see my theory of destroying the Buddha and getting rich! (for collection)

What should the rich country do?
