Transmigrating to the Ming Dynasty’s Imperial Examination

Cui Xie returned to the first place in honor of the champion and boasted a few streets. When he reached the door of Cui's house, the neighborhoods in the nearby streets and several rows were all alarmed. Each presented gifts and flooded Cui's house like a tide to celebrate his neighbor's success. Champion.

Although there used to be champions in the past, the champions were all from the south. Most of them lived in guild halls and hostels, and left after the excitement. In fact, it has nothing to do with them. But this time, it was a local resident in Beijing, or their neighbors separated by a few doors and a few lanes. It was simply a great glory on their heads.

In the future, there will be a champion archway on this street. The people who come in and out are also people who can claim to be a family under the champion street, champion lane, and champion archway!

The neighbors were quicker than the Cui family to put together money to invite the gongs and drums team, bought incense candles and firecrackers to hang outside his house to reward God, and prepared exquisite gifts at home, put on the best clothes, and celebrated at the Cui family.

The Cui family now has not only a champion scholar, but also a number of scholars who live in them. That's all Wenquxing's descendants! They usually don't see a few Jinshi, so it's good if they can take advantage of this opportunity to build friendship and get a sense of culture. What's more, I have already thought that the little champion of the Cui family is only 19 years old this year. He is still unmarried. There are also sisters, daughters, granddaughters, nieces in his own family.

Although Cui Xie has been reluctant to marry when he was a Juren, but this time he was the top pick in the test. They were not allowed to deal with the officials and the officials, maybe they wanted to marry again?

Aren’t they all acting in that drama, if the prime minister and mentor marry his daughter to the champion?

It doesn't matter if his regular wife married the daughter of a high-ranking official. They would rather send a daughter to be a concubine for such a beautiful and gentle champion man. How can that official daughter have a good temper? They are such a beautiful daughter, gentle and small, and have a friendship with the Cui family, and the family will accompany some money and shops, even if they are concubines, they can win favor from the eldest...

If Wan Shoufu and Yin Master Kao knew their thoughts, they would both have to vomit blood.

Not to mention that their daughters have reached the age of holding children and grandchildren, and it is impossible to marry again. They have granddaughters and nieces of the right age in the family. They would rather stay with the eldest son than marry into the Cui family!

What can Cui Xie do if he is the top pick, and what can he do with the Sacred Heart?

Such a family of father and son offended the two elders, does he still want to go to heaven? Sacred pets such as Yang Yiqing are not in the cabinet, and champions such as Xie Qian and Wang Hua are not yet in the Imperial Academy who compile books. They are as high as Wang Huan. They are also cut off by Shang Ge. In the imperial court, literary talent is not the capital, and the holy grace is not the reliance. They are the scholars who hold the power of the imperial court. Wanting to kill a small champion is as easy as searching for something!

Wan Shoufu was still trapped in the regret that he had read the papers and made his enemy the number one champion, and unabashedly said to the three elders Liu, Yin, and Peng: "Didn't Li Dongyang stay in the Hanlin for more than 20 years? Let them continue to raise them as their masters and apprentices. I think a new champion in the discipline will come in 20 years later. Where can he stand, the champion of 23 years in Chenghua!

Yin Zhi told him to play twice in the exam. He also hated him deeply. He frowned and said, "But this son is deeply loved by the lotus, and he needs something to do with his love. Otherwise, how to suppress the adults and me, as long as a decree , Won't he get up?"

He himself entered the pavilion by relying on the imperial decree, and knew that the Saint Chong was so powerful--even if he looked like he had lost his power, he could never get up again. As long as the emperor remembered such a person, a decree could raise him to a high position.

Seeing that the two elders were so upset, Peng Hua said, "What is worthy of the two elders? I'm still in the position of the Hanlin bachelor, not to mention that Cui Xie is just a compilation according to the law. , After becoming a bachelor of attendance, wouldn’t I dismiss him as the prefect of Yangzhou like Jiao Fang? It’s just a matter of a few articles to toss him. The two adults waited for two months and waited for him to visit relatives and show his grave. After my vacation, I officially entered the imperial courtyard, so I naturally took care of it!"

This Cui Xie is not Li Dongyang, he is shocked by his name, and he has been in the Imperial Academy for decades. There is no mistake in the article. Although this son deceived the champion based on two articles, he heard that poetry has always been poor. If you ask him to compile a collection of Tang poems, and pick his fault from here, I am afraid that the holy emperor will only make mistakes because he is innocent, where will he be protected?

He calculated this, and the two elders turned back to their anger, waiting for him to deal with it.

Liu Ji and Wanjia have in-laws, and they have worked together to deal with the long-term friendship of Liu Xie, the second assistant, and think more deeply for them: "This Cui Xie is not married yet. I'm afraid that he can make a good in-law relationship. Transferred to other ministries..."

Although the four of them are the highest in the court, not everyone buys their account, such as Guozijian Qiu Jun, Youdu Yushi Gengyu, and Libu Youshi Li Yu-as long as you want to recruit such a nineteenth person. The year-old champion is Yu Wu, who can't find a daughter, granddaughter, or niece?

He had to cut his way to marry the daughter of a high-ranking official.

Wan Shoufu glanced at Liu Ji and said approvingly: "Youzhi's words are quite true. I forgot that he is not married yet. According to the old man, he still refuses to be married at such an age. He must be treated with his marriage. For the price, I must marry a high-ranking official in the ministry, or marry a daughter of a national or honorable man like his master."

But they had never expected that the emperor would recruit him as a consort, and now it is too late to terminate him by marriage. I can only think that he can't marry the daughter of a high school.

This has to be done by the elder Wange, the official official.

He squinted his eyes and said gloomily: "His father is my protégé, and I know he wants to return to the central heart. In that case, I will give him a chance to ask him to choose one in the future of himself and his son... …"

Several people agreed on the matter, and they had to pinch their noses to attend the En Rong Banquet to see the scenery of Cui Xie and Dakui.

Not only are the four cabinet bachelors, but also the deputy examiner Wu Kuan, the 17th room same examiner, the hall examination papers officer, the examination promotion officer, the supervisory field, the acceptance of the paper, the seal, the transcription, the collection, the filling of the list, the printing, and the supply , Ming Chan and other officials must participate. Military attachés such as Jin Wuwei who is responsible for inspections inside and outside the venue, Jin Yiwei who is in charge of inspections for the palace examinations, will also participate, and Wen Dong Wuxi will sit in two groups.

The one sitting at the chairperson presided over the banquet was the most respected military attache in Germany, and the British official Zhang Mao, who presided over the prince’s acceptance, canonization, and welcoming ceremony.

The officials below him are all two tables, and the Jinshi is a table of four. The second place and Tanhua are two tables. Only Cui Xie, the number one scholar in the world today, is the most honorable among scholars. Stand alone with the chairperson's British public.

Zhang Mao looked at the talented young talents of the new branch, and said with a smile: "Today, the saints are giving a grace feast for you new scholars. Before the feast, everyone should consider the grace of the saints. Do your best to serve the country."

He didn't say this by himself, but on behalf of the emperor to raise some jinshi. After that, he unfolded the imperial edict and read the holy sacred to encourage all beings and give the meaning of feasting grace.

Cui Xie led Zhu Jinshi to worship and receive the decree, and the civil and military officials also went out and knelt down. After Zhang Mao announced his decree, they sat down again and followed them to the table. The dishes listed on the table are all carefully prepared dishes from Hongfu Temple. Although they are not as exquisite as the palace, they also have fresh fish and meat, as well as the peach blossom vinegar, roast chicken with bamboo shoots and stir-fried male duck waist from the palace.

The waist of a male duck is good at nourishing the kidney. Because the palace loves to buy this item, the price is so high that it is extremely difficult to buy. At the Enrong Banquet, there was one plate for one person, enough for everyone to enjoy it. Many knowledgeable jinshi laughed deeply when they saw the plate, and after teasing each other, they would all be useful to their wives and concubines after returning home.

Only when I got to the top two tables and the second place in the rankings, I couldn't tell the kind of secretive jokes.

Sanding Jia is the third in the North and South Middle Schools respectively. Tanhua Liu Chun speaks Southwestern Mandarin. He doesn't speak well with the two Dingjia who are accustomed to northern Mandarin in the Imperial College. They can't tell a joke. Fei Hong is a dignified and respectful person by nature, who doesn't like to make fun of Neiweizhong, but Cui Xie, he—he is not married yet!

Among the 350 jinshi in the field, he is the only innocent man who has no wives and concubines. He can just ignore such jokes proudly, sit alone in front of the champion case, and not go with these people!

British grandfather Zhang Mao sat on the top, watching the meaningful smiles of the scholars below, and watching Cui Xie, who was clearly marked with dust and injustice. The little idea of ​​choosing a son-in-law came out of him when he saw him in the temple in the morning. He popped up and asked Yin Zhi tentatively: "I don't want the appearance of the champion in this class... old man listen, it seems that he is not married yet?"

Yin Zhi is Cui Xie's advisor. In the examination room, the advisor even kissed his father and son, and he was able to arrange some of his marriage.

Ming Shancha, the British copy of the scholar Yin, will surely take his words without leaving a trace, and ask the young champion to go to his home to beg for a kiss. Unexpectedly, Yin Zhi called Liu Ji to remind him that he must not be allowed to climb a good relationship, let alone a top portal like the British father, and hurriedly refused to marry him: "Although Cui Xie is not married yet, His father made a marriage contract for him, and the woman waited for him to be old, and this thing can't be done."

Zhang Mao glanced at him disappointedly and unwillingly: "Why did you decide to marry? Where is the woman from? Is she from a small family? Ask her to marry another..."

Yin Zhi was afraid that the Zhang family insisted on marrying a daughter, so he had to gritted his teeth and complimented Cui Xie: "This student is actually a loyal person. He has been refusing to have **** for the girl in the family. Why should the country's father reluctantly? As an official in Yunnan, he also receives a lot of kindness from that family, and this kind of love alone cannot withdraw from relatives."

"I was one step too late, it's a pity, sigh..." Zhang Mao has always envied Cheng Guogong Zhu Yi for recruiting Li Dongyang, the domestic Wenzong sect, as the son-in-law. He also wants to recruit a scholar to come back, and Cui Xie, the champion, is young and beautiful. Cai, he was still a student of Li Dongyang, he saw it in the temple, but it was a pity that he still saw it one step later than others.

He shook his head and sighed, "No matter, I'm not lucky enough to choose a son-in-law as a crude warrior. I have to let the one who takes the lead."

Yin Zhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and glanced back at Cui Xie, only to see that he was sitting upright and upright, his skin was as clear as jade, and his eyes were gleaming. It was really handsome and dusty. Even if he just sat there quietly and didn't say a word, he would be dazzling than other Jinshi, even more eye-catching than the high-ranking officials in red robe and the burly and handsome Jinyiwei on the Xixi.

If he didn't have such a teacher, Yin Ge would be so angry that he had chosen the wrong paper twice. Maybe Yin Zhi would be satisfied with him as a champion in the appearance of Qingjun.

Unfortunately there is no if.

No matter why he offended the two elders, Yin Zhi couldn't make him feel better after he had offended.

Old Yin Ge turned his face away from looking at him, and said with a smile to Zhang Mao: "We should not only give banquets and drinks at the Enrong Banquet today, but also look at the talents of these new scholars on behalf of the sage. Guo Gong was ordered to wait for the banquet. , So you can be the master of this official and jinshi, why not ask Cui Zhuangyuan to write a poem on the banquet to see his talents?"

Zhang Mao has always admired Li Dongyang’s literary talent, and felt that his disciples should also have such talents, and he happily touched his palm: “Exactly! Where can I not write poetry at the Enrong Banquet? The new champion is when the spring breeze is proud and the glory is unlimited. , It should be a poem!"
