The team gradually moved away.

Seeing Song Huan's never-ending smile, King Sheng said, "Let's go back to the mansion with me."

Song Huan followed without thinking too much.

It's not time to get off work yet today.

After returning to Prince Sheng's Mansion, Song Huan was called into the study by Prince Sheng.

Song Huan said: "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

King Sheng pointed to the table on the other side with his folding fan and said, "That is the gift I have prepared for your brother, so I won't send anyone to visit in person."

King Sheng is a sensible person at heart, and if he is not learned and has no skills, he will act like he is not learned and has no skills.

Although Song Huan was his subordinate, it was okay to give him a congratulatory gift, but brother Song Huan did very well in the exam. In order to prevent anyone from using this as a weapon, King Sheng thought it would be better to let Song Huan take him back directly.

Song Huan did not refuse and said thank you directly.

King Sheng asked the question he was most concerned about, "When are you going to leave?"

Song Huan had thought about this problem for a long time and said, "I never thought they could do so well in the exam, so I still thought that I should leave as soon as possible."

King Sheng nodded.

After he learned about Brother Song Huan's results, he was also shocked and thought it would be better for Song Huan to leave as soon as possible.

Today her brother's reputation as a Jinshi has spread throughout the capital, and tomorrow Song Huan's work as a guard at his mansion will be revealed.

Although King Sheng was very reluctant to part with Song Huan, a capable and powerful guard, he could only let her go for the sake of his peaceful life in the future.

"Thanks to your efforts during this period. Although I pay you wages, it is still a master-servant relationship, and there is some friendship in it. This is what I give to you. You can keep it and you can go tomorrow.

No need to come."

Although Song Huan felt that they were only in an employment relationship, in King Sheng's view, they were a master-servant relationship.

Song Huan didn't expect to receive an employee gift before leaving, "Your Majesty, my subordinates are always grateful to you."

Without him, they might not have been able to survive until this point.

Prices have risen sharply. If they did not work in the palace, not only would they have wages, but they would also receive rewards and food from the cook and sister every now and then. Otherwise, they would have run out of food long ago.

By that time, Song Huan could not stop Adi and Fu Yuanzhi from going out to copy books.

The results of Adi and Fu Yuanzhi may not be what they are now.

King Sheng waved his hand, he could still distinguish this clearly, "Everyone gets what they need, you can go."

"By the way. Since you have been with me for so long, you can also get a glimpse of the current situation in the court. It is best not to decide on your brother's marriage too early."

If you stand in the wrong team, your good future will be gone.

Song Huan sincerely thanked you again.

King Sheng originally didn't need to remind him, but he couldn't help but remind him.

"Your Majesty, do I need to find someone else to replace me after I leave? I know where to find your powerful people to help."

Song Huan knew that there was a business branch in the capital. If he went there and asked, he might be able to find someone who was even more powerful than himself.

King Sheng waved his hand, "No."

When that incident was exposed, it only affected Queen Mother Xiang's reputation, but it did not affect her status.

Now the rumors have been suppressed.

Although she still had the desire to kill King Sheng, her attention had been diverted by other more important things.

Marquis Wu'an is now in opposition to the Xiang family.

Once this group of new Jinshis enter the imperial court, they will definitely change the imperial court's blood.

The people the Xiang family bought before may be replaced.

Although these people will not have high official positions when they first enter the imperial court, as long as they are run properly, they will be in a good place within a few years.

If the Xiang family wants to stabilize their position, they must win over people now.

In fact, Empress Dowager Xiang had to let go of her intention to kill King Sheng first. The previous assassinations of King Sheng were all Jianghu people found by the Xiang family.

Now the Xiang family needs to use a lot of gold and silver to win people's hearts. If the money is used to hire skilled people to assassinate King Sheng, but nothing comes of it, it is better to buy people's hearts first and pave the way for the future of the Xiang family.

Now that the Queen Mother's case has become a foregone conclusion, killing King Sheng will not yield any actual benefits except revenge.

Even if the Queen Mother wanted to do so, the Queen Mother's brothers would not.

Song Huan returned to Song's house, and the door was crowded with people.

Neighbors who don't usually interact with each other and landlords who are clamoring for price increases all came over.

Song Huan had no choice but to go around and climb over the wall from the side, blocking Adi and Fu Yuanzhi who were being entangled. He had never thought that they could get such good results in the exam, and the family did not prepare much money for the wedding.

Song Huan had just exchanged a basketful of copper coins from the bank. She took the small basket off her back, grabbed a handful of coins and threw them out.

The door that was almost broken down a moment ago was finally freed.

Song Huan lost two paws again, and after saying a few festive words to the people who were picking up wedding coins on the ground, he also said that today's number one scholar and Tanhua Lang were tired and needed to rest first. We would talk about anything later, and then simply

He closed the door neatly.

Fu Yuanzhi and Adi were also able to breathe at this time.

The three of them entered the room directly, and Song Huan placed the congratulatory gift from King Sheng on the table.

"I didn't expect that you two would really create surprises for people."

"Sister, how awesome is this brother?" Adi directly asked for praise.

Song Huan showed her thumbs up, smiled from ear to ear, and said, "My brother is the best. My sister never expected that there would be a champion in our family!"

Song Huan directly pinched Adi's cheek. Ever since Adi gradually grew taller and everyone went on a study tour, Song Huan had not done such an intimate gesture to Adi for a long time.

Adi's face turned red and he didn't resist.

Today is a special day, so I won’t pay too much attention to it.

Fu Yuanzhi just looked at the delighted siblings quietly.

At this time, a voice came from outside the door: "Is this the home of Song Zhuangyuan and Fu Tanhua?"

When the three of them arrived at the door, Chang Sui was followed by a man in rich clothes, who was holding a gift wrapped in red silk.

The other party saluted and said, "The number one scholar, Tanhua Lang, and the younger one are the stewards of the Qian Mansion. They came here specially to send congratulatory gifts."

After this person arrived, many more people came one after another, all from wealthy families in the capital.

At this beginning, it seemed that the gate had been opened, and the Song family was extremely lively.

Because one can become an important minister of the imperial court within ten years after becoming the number one scholar. Not only will he be extremely glorious, but he will also rise to prominence with a bright future.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that the Song family was a bustling family during this period.

In the Tianqi Dynasty, those who achieved first place in the imperial examination also enjoyed special treatment.

After the results are released, other Jinshi will be awarded the rank of Shujishi, chief minister, Zhongshu, Xingren, judge, doctor, official, magistrate, magistrate, etc. according to the numbers obtained from the re-examination, palace examination, and court examination.

The No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3 Scholars of "Three Tripods A" will be awarded official positions immediately after the results are announced. The No. 1 Scholar will be directly assigned to the Hanlin Academy for editing, which can be said to be a step to the top.

On the 25th, Fu Yuanzhi and his brother went to the Ministry of Rites to attend the honor banquet.

The examiners ranged from the Cabinet to the bachelor's degree, the examiners ranged from the Imperial Academy to the Ministry of Science and Technology, and various officials including the examiners, censors, and patrol officers attended the banquet.

Song Yi, as the number one scholar, has one seat, two people with second place and three top candidates have one seat, and all four Jinshi people have one seat. There are silver cups and plates, and more than forty kinds of fruits and foods, all of which are rare and unique, and are the best delicacies from Heaven's Kitchen.

The "Emperor" personally gave him the royal wine, and Sanding Jia drank it from a golden bowl. According to the amount of wine, he would stop drinking once he was drunk.

The Jinshi who attended the banquet each presented a palace flower and a small silk tablet with the words "Enrong Banquet" written on it.

The No. 1 pick will receive better treatment: use silver medals.

On the second day of the fifth lunar month, he was also given robes and hats: a crystal gold-topped hat, a green court coat inlaid with python stones, a tortoiseshell silver belt, a toothbrush and a knife, and a pair of riding boots.
