The battle report Gao Ming gave to Shen Yi described the first battle between the Chen army and the Qi army. In this battle, the Chen army suffered more than a hundred casualties, and the Northern Qi army should also have suffered about a hundred casualties. After the first contact between the two sides,
, it can be said to be evenly divided.
In other words, Northern Qi took a slight advantage.
Although the current role of the Di Press Department is that of the imperial court's official newspaper, which is also the so-called mouthpiece of the imperial court, no matter what news it publishes, it must be true in order to establish credibility. Therefore, Shen Yi only exaggerated the title, but the content is still relatively true.
As one of the founders of the Chendi Newspaper, Shen Yi may not be as good at writing policies as others, but his ability to write the Didai Newspaper can, without exaggeration, be said to be the well-deserved leader in Jiankang City.
This is not because of his outstanding literary talent or political foresight, but because he has seen too many of these media methods in another world. It can be said that he is very familiar with using these methods at this moment.
When Shen Yi returned home from the imperial city, it was completely dark. After briefly talking to his family about the process of the imperial examination, Shen Yi returned to his study, stayed up all night, and wrote this article.
I wrote it in the newspaper.
The next day, he personally took this Di newspaper and the battle report he got from Eunuch Gao and returned it to the Di newspaper department.
The reason why we want to bring the battle report back is because this thing is still kept secret in Jiankang. If it is leaked from Shen Yi, Shen may be held responsible for it.
After handing in the essay, Shen Yi, who had worked hard for more than a year, was finally free. In the next two days, Mr. Shen first went to Zhao Er for a drink, and then went to Ying Zhao and Sun
Li, two fellow villagers of the same year, got in touch and had a dinner together.
In short, I have never read a word of the book again.
Two days passed in a blink of an eye, and the time came to April 24th of the seventh year of Hongde. This day is called Xiao Chuanlu. The top ten in the palace examination will be called into the Huagai Hall to participate in the "Award Ceremony" of the top ten, and then
One by one, they knelt down to see the emperor.
On this day, except for the three people in the first class and the seven people in the second class, other Jinshi will not be summoned.
On this day, Shen was at home and was not summoned.
In other words, the top ten has nothing to do with him.
This is normal. He will try more than a hundred people. If he can squeeze into the top ten in the imperial examination, he will be a fool. By then, those Jinshi will probably focus their attention on Shen Yi and suspect that he has used some back door.
Unable to participate in the Xiao Chuanlu, Shen Yi was happy to have some free time. He took a nap at home in the morning. In the afternoon, he wandered to Huashen Lake and watched the old man fishing by the Huashen Lake all afternoon.
Anyway, Shen Yi can't read a single word of the Four Books and Five Classics, or the sayings of saints.
Now, he feels quite like after finishing the college entrance examination.
The next day, April 25th.
The day when the imperial court passed the ceremony.
On this day, all the Jinshi were going to the Huagai Hall to watch the ceremony. Shen Yi also got up early. Under the service of two little maids, he put on the tribute uniforms awarded by the imperial court and gathered early at the entrance of the imperial city.
At this time, more than two hundred prospective Jinshi scholars had almost arrived.
Shen Yi found Ying Zhao and Sun Li in the crowd. He bowed his hands to them first and said with a smile in Jiangdu dialect: "You two brothers came so early."
Sun Li was shy, so he responded with a smile to Shen Yi and said, "We have just arrived."
Ying Zhao on the side first returned the courtesy to Shen Yi, and then said with a smile: "Yesterday Xiaochuan, the rankings of the top seven in the first and second classes were decided, Zi Heng is not curious at all?"
"Curiosity is curiosity."
Shen Yi smiled and said: "But I'm too lazy to ask. Anyway, the answer will be announced today."
Ying Zhao pulled Shen Yi, pointed at a young man in his twenties or eighties not far away, and said softly: "I heard that that person is the number one scholar in this subject."
It was already early in the morning, and it was close to summer. It was dawning relatively early. Shen Yi could clearly see this man's face. After taking a look, he was a little surprised.
"It seems to be Xie Huiyuan..."
Hui Yuan Xie Quan.
Ying Zhao nodded, stroking his palms and sighed: "The General Examination Huiyuan, and now the Palace Examination has been selected as the number one scholar. The only thing missing is the Jie Yuan in the Jiankang Township Examination, which is to win three yuan in a row."
"This No. 1 Scholar, ranked third in the Jiankang Township Examination, is only one step away from winning the Jie Yuan. It's a pity."
Ying Zhao couldn't help but regretted: "It's only one step away from the Great Sanyuan. How many years have we, Da Chen, not had the Great Sanyuan?"
Xie Quan is from Gusu Prefecture, and he also has to take the provincial examination in Jiankang.
This year, Shen Yi also participated in the Jiankang Rural Examination. If I remember correctly, the name of the candidate for the Jiankang Rural Examination was Huo Tiao. Shen Yi really didn't pay attention to where the top scholar Xie ranked at that time.
He glanced at Xie Quan for a few times, then smiled at Ying Zhao on the side and said: "Even if he is not the Great Three Yuan, he is still very powerful. This champion will probably shine in the Hongde Dynasty."
Ying Zhao glanced at Shen Yi and said with a smile: "Ziheng, you are also very good. Brother, I have paid special attention to it these days. In our department, you, Shen Ziheng, are the youngest."
He looked at Shen Yi and said with emotion: "If Ziheng can calm down and wait three or six years before taking the exam again, he might be able to compete for a minor."
Xiao Chuanlu is in the top ten.
"Have a good morning exam. Good morning."
Shen Yi was quite calm and said with a smile: "If I take the exam again in a few years, it might not be as good as this subject, and I won't even be able to pass the exam."
While the three Jiangdu people were chatting, the imperial city gate finally opened, and several officials from the Ministry of Rites began to roll their names loudly. After the roll call, they rushed to the Huagai Hall with more than 200 prospective Jinshi.
At this time, a group of officials from the Ministry of Rites had arrived in the Huagai Hall, and three of the five prime ministers from Zhongshu Province had also arrived. After all the prospective Jinshis had arrived, the little emperor also entered the Huagai Hall accompanied by Gao Ming.
All the people and ministers kowtowed and saluted the emperor.
His Majesty the Emperor waved his hands indifferently and said: "You don't need to be polite, just stand up."
Only then did a group of would-be Jinshis stand up.
Yes, from today on, they are no longer ordinary people.
Even if they have not yet been awarded actual positions, they have already been assigned the title of Jinshi, and they are all officials. Among them, the number one scholar is from the seventh rank, the second best is from the eighth rank, and the other Jinshi are also at the eighth or ninth rank.
In the next six months to one year, these Jinshi will be arranged to study politics in various yamen. During this process, salaries will be paid out as usual. In other words, people like Shen Yi will "eat the king" from today on.
"Lu".
After the scholars stood up, the emperor glanced at the Minister of Rites next to him. He was not very interested and just said lazily: "Master Zhou, it's getting late, let's get started."
Zhou Fu, the Minister of Rites, bowed his head respectfully and said "Yes", then raised his head to look at the crowd, took out an edict from the wooden box on the side, and said: "Xie Quan, the first in the first class of the new branch, is awarded the title of Jinshi, and is awarded the title of Jinshi.
…”
He won the first place in the first class and was awarded the title of editor of the Hanlin Academy.
The second and third place were editors from the Hanlin Academy.
The top seven of the top two also successfully entered the Hanlin Academy and were awarded the title of Shujishi of the Hanlin Academy.
Soon, after the top ten were read out, Zhou Shangshu looked at the group of potential Jinshi below and said in a deep voice: "Please thank the number one scholar and lead the Jinshi to Zhengyangmen to view the list."
A group of Jinshi knelt down to thank the emperor, and then, led by Xie Quan, went to Zhengyang Gate to see the gold list that had been hung up.
Three people from Jiangdu Prefecture walked together. Mr. Ying's hands were shaking with excitement. He turned his head to look at Shen Yi and swallowed.
"Isn't Ziheng nervous?"
Shen Yi exhaled a breath, lowered his eyebrows and said: "Nervousness is natural, but the rankings for the general examination have been decided, and there is not much difference from the palace examination..."
