Allure of a Country Maiden

The New Year Xiao'er had to shuttle between major aristocratic families to attend banquets. It passed quietly like this, and the court ushered in another major event, which was the joint examination and palace examination every three years.

At the beginning of February, students from all over the country came to the Imperial City. Every inn in the Imperial City was full of people. The business of the Four Seasons Restaurant was extremely good. Every day, many students' companions lined up in long lines to come to their young master. Buy food.

Due to the differences in local food culture, many students will not be used to the local food when they first come to the imperial capital, or they will not be accustomed to the local culture. However, these situations disappear when they encounter Four Seasons Restaurant!

This is not the first time that the Spring Festival has been held. Some people will ask people who have participated in the Spring Festival to inquire about various conditions in the Imperial City in advance. Many people will recommend the Four Seasons Restaurant and the Garden Hotel, saying that the food, service and accommodation conditions there are very good. , so before the first lunar month, all the private rooms in the restaurant and the guest rooms in the hotel are already full.

Even the villas and hotel rooms in the hot spring resort are fully booked. After all, it is not far from the Imperial City. Just go out early on the day of the exam. It is better than not living well, eating well, and sleeping every day.

During this period of time, the people in the Imperial City were speaking and doing things more lightly, just because they were worried that being too loud would disturb the students while they were reviewing their lessons.

The whole city entered a tense atmosphere of exam preparation.

Xiaoer stews a cup of brain-enhancing soup every day and has someone deliver it to Jingrui.

The body is the capital of revolution, so don’t make Jingrui sick.

Mrs. Liu also tried different ways to make food for Jingrui every day. Because Jingrui stayed up late at night and read before dawn, Jingrui didn't gain much weight and lost a lot of weight.

Jing Hao took advantage of Jing Rui and ate and slept a lot, gaining a full five kilograms. When Xiaoer saw him, she couldn't help but call him fat.

The general examination was finally over, and the students did not leave the imperial capital. They were all waiting for the results of the general examination to come out and preparing for the palace examination.

On the day when the results were announced, Jingrui lived up to expectations and won the first place and became a Huiyuan. It was not in vain that he studied hard for eight years in a cold window, ate better than others, slept later than others, woke up earlier than others, and Xiaoer secretly He used the resources in the space to fully upgrade his intelligence and physical strength.

At this point, Shen Jingrui's name became well-known among the candidates nationwide.

Next came the palace examination. The palace examination started with the last one, so when it was Jingrui's turn, he was already the last one. However, in the Jinluan Palace, the students who had finished the palace examination were still standing there, looking at Jingrui's answer.

The emperor knew that Huiyuan was the eldest son of Shengpinghou, Xiaoer's younger brother, and the two sons of Shengpinghou's family. He had long heard that he was very good at learning. Such a young Jinshi would definitely be the pillar of the country in the future.

For this reason, the emperor not only did not let go because of the relationship, but even became more severe.

The emperor originally planned to ask one more question than others.

But Jingrui's unique and sophisticated insights deeply attracted the emperor. He couldn't help but ask three questions in a row. Jingrui's answers made the emperor say yes.

Some of the national elites in the Jinluan Hall knew that Jingrui was King Rui's brother-in-law. They were initially skeptical of Jingrui as a Huiyuan, but at this moment they were deeply impressed by his tall and tall figure.

Especially the last question, how should a gentleman cultivate himself, manage his family, govern his country, and bring peace to the world.

Jingrui sees the big from the small, expresses his own thoughts in a profound, clear and insightful way, which makes people feel deeply convinced.

There is no doubt that Jingrui became the top candidate in the palace examination, and no one among the officials who invigilated the examination with the emperor had any objections to this.

These officials usually heard that the eldest son of Marquis Shengping was well-read, and they felt that the rumors were more or less related to Prince Rui. Today in this hall, everyone knew that he was really good! It doesn't matter whose relative he is.

The top pick, the second pick, and the top pick are all paraded through the streets. This time, the top pick is a twenty-five-year-old graduate, and the top pick is Du Chun'an, Du Yijin's brother.

The three of them rode tall horses and walked slowly on the street. The girls and women kept throwing the handkerchiefs and flowers in their hands at Jingrui and Du Chun'an. The second place walking in the middle was embarrassed!

No one threw veils or flowers at him!

After all, he is also the second place, and the 25-year-old second place is young and talented. Looking at the past and present, there are not many! Why are these people completely ignoring him!

Isn't it because he is not as knowledgeable as the number one scholar, not as handsome as the number one scholar, and he is a little older? But he is also charming and charming among the crowd, okay?

Generally speaking, the appearance of the top pick is often better than that of the top pick, but Jingrui's appearance is better than Du Chun'an. People on the street are talking about why this year's top pick is better looking than the top pick.

Du Yijin and Xiaoer were in the private room of Four Seasons Restaurant together, watching their brother parade in the street.

When the three of them passed below them, they both threw down the flowers in their hands.

Xiaoer shouted to Jingrui: "Brother! Well done!"

Du Yijin was not as open-minded as Xiaoer and remained silent.

Xiaoer's voice was clear, sweet, and melodious. It flowed into the ears of the three people on the street like a clear stream amidst the bustle of people.

All three raised their heads.

For the first time, Jingrui stretched out his hand to catch the flowers Xiaoer threw down and smiled at her.

Du Chun'an also caught the flowers thrown by Du Yijin.

Xiaoer waved her hand and gave Jingrui a sweet and bright smile.

No. 2 looked at the woman upstairs with a heavenly voice, stunning looks, and a sweet smile, and her heart beat loudly.

How can there be such a beautiful woman in this world? It makes all the beauty in the world eclipse!

Xiao'er found that the second-place candidate was looking at her stupidly, and no one was throwing flowers or handkerchiefs at him along the way. She couldn't help but said to Du Yijin: "This second-place candidate is unlucky to meet my eldest brother and your eldest brother. There is no one there." To those who throw veils and flowers.”

After Xiaoer finished speaking, she picked up a flower from the basket and threw it to him.

Du Yijin also felt that he was too shameless and threw a flower at him.

No. 2 didn't expect Xiao'er to throw flowers at him. When he reacted, the flowers had already fallen from his eyes. He quickly reached out to catch them. Then because he missed the best time to catch the flowers, he was too impatient and fell to the ground. On the ground.

"Pfft!" Xiaoer and Du Yijin couldn't help but laugh, and then they retracted their heads into the window to avoid others noticing that they were laughing.

The second pick picked up the flower on the ground, quickly got up, and climbed onto the horse with a red face.

Seeing this, Jingrui asked, "Did Brother Fang get hurt from the fall?"

The second person on the list is Fang Quan, the next-door cousin of Chu Die’s husband Fang Rong.

"No." Fang Quan raised his head and glanced upstairs again, but Xiaoer was no longer there.

He felt a little disappointed in his heart.

The parade continues...

The eighteen-year-old number one scholar was still a third-ranked scholar. He was born in a peasant family and did not start enlightenment until he was nearly ten years old. He has become a role model for parents to educate their children.

At this point, people all over the country know Shen Jingrui's name.
