It snowed for several days in Haojing in early spring.
Auspicious snow heralds a good year.
After the first exam is over.
Many candidates had half a day to rest, and they still had to line up to enter the Gongyuan from Longmen in the evening.
However, many people would rather wait in the cold night for this half-day of breathing time.
Zhang Jian also walked out.
Zhang Lu had already been waiting at the gate of Gongyuan and came to greet him.
In addition, an old eunuch with a feminine face walked over and gave him a lot of food.
"May I ask why this man brought so much food? You and I should be strangers to each other!"
At this time, Zhang Jian looked at the eunuch with a somewhat surprised expression on his face. Of course, most of this surprise was pretended.
When the eunuch came over, he vaguely guessed his identity.
He had seen this old eunuch who came to summon him in the Qi Mansion before.
Sure enough, the old eunuch wearing a military hat said kindly: "Young man, don't worry too much. We are the servants of the eldest princess's residence. We have been ordered to come and bring you some food and drinks to warm your stomach and ward off the cold!"
"It turns out it's a family member of the princess's residence. I asked the old housekeeper to thank His Highness for his kindness on behalf of the people!"
Zhang Jian immediately accepted the basket of food and wine with a smile.
The old eunuch nodded lightly when he saw this.
He was also very satisfied with Zhang Jian's insistence that he was an old housekeeper, especially because Zhang Jian's eyes were clear and did not contain a trace of discrimination, which made people feel more comfortable. He had a good impression of this young man.
Soon after, he came to a small sedan and bowed respectfully.
At this time, the figure in the sedan nodded slightly, and then the guards carried the sedan and turned around to leave.
"Princess Qingfeng!"
Zhang Jian thought to himself.
It seemed that his uncle had really succeeded in seducing the Princess of Frost.
This Prince Consort is destined to be the Commander-in-Chief.
He smiled slightly and didn't care about it at the moment. He found a place to have a delicious meal and then entered the Gongyuan to rest in advance.
The second session starts on time the next day.
This time Zhang Jian began to use Haoran Zhengqi according to his plan. Haoran Zhengqi took up the pen in his hand and poured it into the rice paper in his hand. The whole ordinary article seemed to have a little more vitality at this time, as if it came to life, with a
The power to keep all evils at bay and the gods to retreat.
The awe-inspiring righteousness emerged, as if a truly awe-inspiring light took shape above the Examination Institute. Wisps of bright light illuminated the void, causing the gods above the Examination Institute to retreat.
This scene was immediately noticed by the Dongshen Temple Taoists around Gongyuan, and they immediately tried to inform Qin Tiantai.
With great righteousness, these are the special talents that the Daqian court needs to focus on attracting.
Zhang Jian's guess was correct. This was indeed a bonus item in the imperial examination.
…
In the palace, the young Emperor Jingwu also quickly got the news. He was handling government affairs a few days ago. Hearing the words, he just smiled and said to the eunuch who came to report.
"Keep exploring!"
"yes!"
After receiving the imperial edict, the eunuch hurried down.
Emperor Jingwu pondered for a moment, then flipped through the table for a moment and took out a memorial. This was exactly the memorial that Wu Hongqiao, the governor of Jixian County, sent over some time ago.
In addition to introducing the specific situation of the war against bandits in Jixian County, the above is also a tribute to the two young men.
Among them were Shi Lun and Zhang Jian.
Emperor Jingwu took a few glances, and he felt a little happy based on the conclusion that a person with great righteousness must have an open mind and not hide any treacherous people.
"He is a loyal person!"
The young emperor smiled slightly, but he was in a good mood during this period.
After sending Yang Gonghu from Changming County to replace the Southern Governor Cai Hengxing as the general to counter the rebellion, the rogue rebellions that were constantly breaking out in the southern counties were gradually suppressed.
The Chinese Master of Dongshen Temple also sent several masters of Dongshen Temple to suppress the arrogance of Xuandu Cult.
And there is hope that Chang Li, the leader of Xuandu who is known as the Ming King, will be captured alive.
Good news came one after another, which finally made the young emperor feel a little comfort.
However, Emperor Jingwu also knew that the Daqian court was already full of abuses, and suppressing the next Xuandu sect rebellion would not solve the fundamental problem.
This requires capable ministers and officials to continue to maintain the life and blood of the Daqian court.
Emperor Jingwu was indeed thirsty for talents at this time.
Emperor Jingwu sighed slightly, and immediately turned his eyes to the pile of memorials in front of him. After taking a short rest, he could only lie down and review them again.
The eunuch next to him looked at this scene and was used to it.
Emperor Jingwu was extremely self-disciplined.
Being strict with oneself is of course also strict with others.
…
The nine days and six nights of the Spring Festival of the Ministry of Rites ended in the heavy snow.
When the Dragon Gate first opened, many people could not help but heave a sigh of relief and felt as if they were in another world.
Zhang Jian was the first to walk out of the dragon gate, wearing a long green coat. At this time, he was in good shape. He did not feel tired, but was full of energy.
"Mr. Lang!"
When he saw Zhang Jian coming out, Zhang Lu had already prepared hot water and towels for washing, and there were several servants nearby carrying hot food and wine, ready to rush over.
Not only Zhang Lu, but also many family members of officials and officials came to greet him in person.
Zhang Jian took a look and saw that this scene in the snow was very warm.
There were also some people who were forced to walk out of the Gongyuan, but they fainted at the door.
The Imperial College seemed to have been prepared for this kind of thing, and a waiting doctor immediately came forward to help with the diagnosis.
Some are happy and some are sad.
Some people are full of confidence, while others are full of despair.
Zhang Jian did not wait for other friends to come out, but washed up first, and then went to the restaurant that everyone had reserved.
The number one scholar resides.
This is a very clichéd name, but at this time it is extremely popular among the people, and it is already full of people.
When Zhang Jian stepped in, Shi Lun, Zhan Xiong and others quickly greeted him.
"Brother Zhang, how did you do in the exam?"
This was the first thing the people said when they saw Zhang Jian. Zhang Jian just smiled slightly. He noticed that Shi Lun also had a smile on his face. It seemed that this time it went well.
He knew that it was not good to be too high-profile at this time, but it was not good to be too humble. In the eyes of such a young and energetic person, he was afraid that he would leave a hypocritical reputation.
This will be detrimental to future official reputation.
“Not bad!”
Zhang Jian just chose a satisfactory answer, but this also made other people look at him with envy.
Many candidates gathered happily in the restaurant for a day, and then dispersed. The announcement of the results will be held in ten days, and they cannot relax. If they are lucky enough to enter the tribute list, they will have to compete for the palace examination.
However, the palace examination of the imperial dynasty is basically just a matter of naming, and it will basically never stop.
But the ranking is still related to the official career.
A fellow Jinshi in the Third Class A may not be able to catch up with a midfielder who is a Jinshi in the First Class A even if he works hard for most of his life.
Moreover, the efforts, resources and risks required will only increase.
