Chapter 126: The palace examination is over, and the little Taoist priest enters the palace!



So he felt that the current emperor was definitely not such a person.

But other than that, Chen Xuance didn't understand at all.

How did I get ranked first?

As for the other candidates, some of them were also confused.

Although they have not read Chen Xuance's article yet, they know and understand this person. After all, they are from the same batch of candidates.

It is undeniable that the other party is talented, but he is not yet at the level of being ranked first, right?

If it was Ouyang Ji, no one would say much.

After all, since the imperial examination was implemented.

All the candidates in the world knew that this person was extremely talented and had won the top prize. During the examination, the essay he wrote was posted for the candidates to appreciate. Many people believed that based on this essay alone, it was a piece of cake for him to become the top prize.

But now, he has become the runner-up, ranking second.

Suppressed by fellow countryman Chen Xuance...

This made all the candidates a little confused.

However, because the essays for this palace examination were not released, even though they were surprised, they did not say much.

They just stepped forward one by one and began to congratulate Chen Xuance on winning the first place and becoming the first number one scholar of this dynasty.

Although Chen Xuance was a little confused, he still responded to all of them.

But I was a little worried.

I became the top scholar, and my good friend Ouyang Ji...

Do you have any thoughts in your mind?

Just when he was about to ask and explain.

Outside the wing room, a group of eunuchs came in and helped these new scholars put on court robes one by one.

From this moment on, their identities were truly recognized by the court!

Of course, this kind of treatment is generally only available to Jinshi of the second class or above. Jinshi of the third class only needs to wear a red flower on the chest. Then, under the guidance of the eunuchs, they go to Chengtian Hall to express their gratitude.

As for the top scholar and the other three, it was of course different. They had to wear red robes and crowns on their heads.

Then they entered the Chengtian Hall, and after the second and third-class Jinshi had expressed their gratitude, they met the emperor together with the court officials.

After leaving the palace, you still need to ride a horse and parade through the streets.

This is the treatment of the top three, they are talents who are highly regarded by the court.

In short.

This day is their glorious day, the day when they truly make the leap to success!

Not long after, the second and third class Jinshi went to Chengtian Hall to express their gratitude, and then left the imperial city under the leadership of Suite.

For some of them, perhaps from this day on, a new stage in their lives will begin. Of course, for some, this may be their last time entering the palace.

Even if one becomes a Jinshi, not everyone can reach that level.

And after the second and third class Jinshi left the palace.

Chen Xuance and the other two also followed Zhang Zhengming and others to Chengtian Palace.

The top three candidates can directly join the Hanlin Academy and perhaps become the chief official of a region.

At this time, Wei Yunyi, who was still sitting on the dragon throne, looked a little bored.

After a whole day of hard work, even with my martial arts skills, I felt a little exhausted.

Fortunately, this is the final stage of the palace examination.

Wait until the top three have expressed their gratitude.

I can rest now.

Immediately following.

Chen Xuance and others walked in wearing red robes, then knelt on the ground without any hesitation and shouted "Long live the emperor".

Wei Yunyi waved his hand and signaled everyone to stand up. He looked at the top scholar in his bedroom with a smile. He looked good and seemed to be a scholar with noble character.

But there is a saying that goes, you can't just look at the surface of things. Who would have thought that this is the person.

How could one write such an article full of praise and flattery?

After a pause, he spoke immediately, looking at everyone and said, "You three are the first three top talents of the Tianqi Dynasty. You are the future pillars of the country, and you are also personally chosen by me. If you have any requests, please feel free to tell me."

The top three are the candidates in the imperial examination held every few years, and their literary talent is almost impeccable.

As the emperor, it was just routine for me to ask them what they wanted.

Chen Xuance thought about it, but still felt that he had no ideas in his mind.

Immediately, he bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, I will obey your orders."

After all, he didn't know where to go from the beginning.

It would be better to follow the arrangements of His Majesty today.

In his opinion anyway.

Now, it doesn’t matter where I go.

"Is that so?" Wei Yunyi frowned when he heard that, and immediately felt a little troubled.

In his eyes, the new number one scholar was a greedy minister and a talent who would become a treacherous official in the future. He must make good use of him, but he couldn't figure out where to put him.

So after thinking it over, he made a decision and said directly, "Well, then, Mr. Chen, you will temporarily serve in the Censorate. There happened to be a vacancy recently, and you can fill it."

The vacancy in the Censorate naturally belonged to Cheng Rui, who was transferred by Wei Yunyi to supervise the Grand Canal and Weizhi Road projects.

In fact, he had another consideration in placing Chen Xuance in the Censorate.

Those are the censors, all the censors.

What do censors do?

In addition to supervising court officials, another reason was that he wanted to have an audience with the emperor.

During this period of time, most of the memorials he received were from the Censorate.

Either they were against this or they were against that, which gave Wei Yunyi a headache.

But Chen Xuance's article was full of praise for himself.

Putting it in the Censorate is definitely the best choice.

certainly.

In Wei Yunyi's opinion, letting the other party go to the Censorate was only a temporary arrangement.

After all, such a good talent must be put to good use.
