However, this subtle mood did not hinder Rong Ji's appreciation of Yuan Suijun.
He even got up and went to Yuan Suijun's side to watch his answer. In modern times, Rong Ji is the kind of invigilator that candidates find most annoying. Generally speaking, when he is answering, the leader of a country is standing next to him.
If you are an ordinary person, you will be stressed to the point of breaking out, and you may even perform abnormally due to being uneasy.
Especially Rong Ji, even if he doesn't do anything, he has an extremely strong sense of presence and oppression just by standing there.
Under such circumstances, Yuan Suijun's hand holding the pen was still very steady, and the words on the test paper were still flowing like clouds and flowing water, without any stagnation.
After all, he has a wife who likes to sit next to him and watch him write his storybooks. Moreover, Su Yueling also likes to disturb people's thoughts with her sugar-like voice. With Su Yueling as a comparison, Rong Ji just watched from the side.
, it’s really not a big deal.
He could even continue writing without any distractions.
Yuan Suijun had a good attitude, but several candidates around him were severely affected by Rong Ji.
Some ink accidentally dripped on the test paper, some hands shook and wrote the wrong words, and some ideas were directly disrupted. What's more, when they were overly nervous, their minds went blank and they forgot everything.
What to write.
Taking in the movement around him, Rong Ji couldn't help but shake his head slightly - those tributes still didn't have enough concentration. In comparison, Yuan Suijun's calm and calm general style became even more prominent.
Especially under this circumstance, the level of his writing is still stable, making it impossible to find any mistakes.
Some candidates who were always paying attention to the emperor couldn't help but envy Yuan Suijun when they saw the gentle smile on his face that seemed satisfied. If there were no mistakes, I'm afraid that the number one scholar this time would fall into the hands of Yuan Suijun.
Rong Ji stood next to Yuan Suijun for almost a quarter of an hour before he leisurely went to watch the other candidates. Although the time was far less than the time he spent with Yuan Suijun, it was enough to frustrate some candidates who were not very capable of psychological endurance.
Being restless will lead to abnormal performance.
Different from Chunwei, the palace examination is limited to one day, so some food will be given in the middle. The food is basically hungry pastries such as dumplings.
Rong Ji did not stay around all day. Later, he went directly back to his palace to correct the memorial.
When the sunset fell, the palace examination was over. The name sections of all candidates' examination papers were sealed, put into boxes, and sent to several examiners for review.
There are three people in the first class, seven people in the second class, and this year the number of top three is twenty. This means that the total number of Jinshi in this class is only thirty.
After the examiners have selected thirty test papers, these thirty papers will be reviewed by Rong Ji, who will select the top three and Chuanlu.
The first test paper placed in front of him was also the first chosen by the examiners - Rong Ji could tell at a glance that it was Yuan Suijun's test paper.
The chamberlain took off the red seals with unidentified names on the thirty test papers.
Although he also felt that Yuan Suijun deserved to be the number one scholar, he still read all thirty copies.
After reading it, he wrote the word "number one scholar" on Yuan Suijun's paper.
Second on the list is Pang Wenshan, the son of Xuanpinghou, a well-known talent in the capital. He is 22 this year and can be regarded as a rare talent. If it were not for Yuan Suijun, he would be the most watched candidate in this session.
.Before Chunwei’s results came out, many people were betting that he would be the top scorer in this class.
The third flower is Xie Zhiyuan, the Qilin son of the Xie family, a famous family in Huaizhou.
As for the second-level Chuanlu, he chose Yan Mu, who came from a poor family. Yan Mu was also the oldest among them, forty-five years old this year.
However, in the past, most of the top three were over forty years old. This year is unusual, as none of the top three were over thirty.
The rankings in the following seasons basically remained unchanged, so the chamberlains were asked to write down the honors. The clerks of Honglu Temple personally announced the news to the thirty Jinshis and presented official uniforms to the new Jinshis. After all, the Jinshis would need to change into theirs the next day.
They go to the court in official uniform, and then perform the ceremony of passing the ceremony after the morning court.
…
The second day of March.
"Congratulations, Master Yuan."
The clerk said with a gentle smile, "Sir, you are the number one scholar appointed by the saint."
Yuan Suijun is really amazing. Not only did he defeat Pang Wenshan and Xie Zhiyuan, who were both in the limelight, he was even the first person to reach the third place in the Three Yuan Dynasty since the founding of Daxia. What's even more frightening is that he is not even twenty this year.
Although he had already guessed the result, Yuan Suijun was still in a daze for a moment when he heard that he was the number one scholar.
To be named on the gold medal list is the dream of many people, even Yuan Suijun is not exempt from it.
Did he really succeed?
This can be considered as getting closer to her.
He suppressed the joy and excitement in his heart and remained calm and calm, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."
Yuan Suifeng looked much more excited than Yuan Suijun. Of course, he did not forget to hand the purse he had prepared in advance to the young official.
The clerk pinched his purse and knew that it must be stuffed with banknotes. He said a few words of congratulations before leaving.
After he left, Yuan Suifeng couldn't help but grab his eldest brother's arm, "Brother, you really became the top pick! You still got the third place!"
Immediately he saw the smile on his elder brother's face slowly disappear.
"Speaking of which, every year the top three are selected to enter the Hanlin Academy." Yuan Suijun frowned slightly, "This means that we can't go back to Lushan Village."
If you enter the Hanlin Academy, you will have to stay for at least one year, usually three years.
"I accidentally did too well on the exam." He murmured.
He originally thought that if he was in the second grade, he might be assigned to be a local magistrate, and he could go back before taking office.
Yuan Suifeng was stunned and stammered: "Then, will my sister-in-law be willing to come to Beijing?"
Based on his understanding of his sister-in-law, she would definitely not be happy to enter the capital. After all, in Dingnan Prefecture, her sister-in-law has a high status as the county king. No one can force her to do something she doesn't like to do. Even if someone else posts it, she will not be happy.
Yes, you can reject them all, and no one dares to say anything about her.
But if she arrives in the capital, there are many powerful people everywhere. Even if she is the county prince, she will inevitably suffer grievances.
Yuan Suijun remembered that Su Yueling was always the most delicate and did not like to bow her head to others. If she went to Beijing, she would have to bow to others frequently.
With such a proud temperament, she really can't stand this. Moreover, the capital is not as peaceful as Dingnanzhou, and there are undercurrents and intrigues among the powerful. Su Yueling is simply afraid of trouble. Can she really adapt to this?
Yuan Suijun's mind unconsciously pictured Su Yueling's red eyes, looking aggrieved and on the verge of tears, and his heart couldn't help but tighten.
Suddenly, the joy of becoming the number one scholar in a new subject was cast a shadow.
