Daily Life of Jiang Liuniang

   Chapter 235 Unexpected Ending

Gu Yingxian, the minister of Honglu Temple, opened the Yellow List and began to preach loudly: "On May 8th in the fifth year of Jinglong, the world's tributes will be tested. From a scholar's background."

   declared here, the hearts of all Gongsheng mentioned in their throats, and the time for unveiling the list has finally arrived.

   Gu Yingxian paused and said loudly, "He Fulin, the first place in the first class of the Wenjue, and Guo Jingping, the first place in the first class of the Wujue."

  The officials of Honghong Temple immediately led He Fulin and Guo Jingping out of class and knelt down.

   "He Changbai, the first and second place in the Wenjue, Tan Jinhua, the first and second place in the Wujue; Huang Tingjun, the first and third place in the Wenjue, and Lang Chao, the first and third place in the Wujue."

   Hearing the name of the third place in Wuju, everyone was stunned, especially Cao Wenyuan and Huang Li. The third place in Wuju is not Jiang Feng? !

how is this possible?

  Cao Wenyuan couldn't help but look up, seeing the majesty in front of Jing and the emperor, he quickly lowered his head again.

   Not to mention others, even Lang Chao himself was stunned. It was not until the officials of Honglu Temple came to urge him that he left work in a hurry and knelt down on the imperial road.

   Jiang Song heard that Lang Chao was Tanhua, and immediately looked at the second brother on the opposite side, but saw that although he was standing well, the smile on his face could not be hidden. This smile was exactly the same as when he went to the casino to win a lot of money, Jiang Song frowned, and suddenly wanted to rush up to give him a few slaps.

  Jiang Feng looked at the top six kneeling on the ground with such a bright smile, in stark contrast to the dejected Cheng Yunbo beside him, Jing He Di, who was aloof, had a panoramic view of the expressions of the two of them.

   "Liang Liyuan, Ma Qiuping, the second best in the Wenjue..." Gu Yingxian read more than 60 Wen Jinshi before he said, "The second best in the Wujue, Jiang Feng, Luo Sheng, Cheng Yunbo..."

   Hearing that he was actually the No. 1 in the Second Division, Erye Jiang laughed even more happily, and Cheng Yunbo next to him was even more disappointed.

   After Gu Yingxian finished reciting, the second top jinshi knelt down, followed by the third one with the largest number. Gu Yingxian read it for a long time before he finished the recitation. The fellow scholars of the third class knelt on the ground. In the "Chapter of Qingping" played by the musicians of the club, the scholars performed three kneeling and nine kowtow salutes.

  After the ceremony, Emperor Jinghe returned to the palace. The officials of the Ministry of Rites used cloud plates to hold the list in the front, and the first-class Jinshi was in the back, from the Jingfeng Gate in the imperial city. There are also officials of the Ministry of Rites who led Wen Jinshi, who was second and third, to come to the door, and Wu Jinshi, who was second and third, held the imperial city at the gate of light, and set up a dragon pavilion, and then gave three knocks.

  The streets and roofs beside the Dragon Pavilion outside the Imperial City were crowded with people watching the fun. Seeing which gate the jinshi came out in in what order, they knew who was in the top tier. In addition to the most eye-catching civil and military champion, Jiang Erye, who was the first to walk out of the Hanguang Gate, was the most eye-catching. Seeing him come out from here, many gamblers heard the sound of heartbreak and silver flying away.

  The fact that Jiang Erye was not included in the first grade really disappointed the people of Kang'an City. Many people sharpen their knives and prepare to go to Jiang's house to eat horse meat.

  After the jinshi ceremony, the musicians played drums in front, and Jingzhao House prepared umbrellas and ceremonies to send the champion to the first place. He Fulin and Guo Jingping are the focus of attention in Kang'an City today, and they are the two most honorable people.

  The champion will return to the first place, and the non-championship will be dismissed on the spot. After Jiang Erye said a few words to his elder brother, he was surrounded by everyone and returned to Jiang's house to announce the good news to his mother.

   Jiang Liu was very surprised when he learned that his father was not in the first class, "How is that possible?"

   "The second, first, first place is already very good." Jiang Muyan whispered in her sister's ear with a face full of joy, "Better than uncle. Sister, let's tell my mother the good news!"

   Jiang Muyan took her sister to congratulate her father, then ran back to the north courtyard, took her sister to the Buddhist hall to burn incense, and told her mother the good news.

   They had just finished kowtowing and left the Buddhist hall when Erye Jiang arrived. He asked the little girl, "Can you tell your mother about the news that he is the first in the second-class father's class?"

  Ginger stay…

   "I told you, Liu Er, congratulations to Daddy."

   Jiang Erye nodded with a smile, "Today there is a banquet in the mansion, and the two of you are staying in the west courtyard. You don't have to go out to greet the female relatives. It's very hot."

  This is against the rules, Jiang Muyan said, "The daughter is not hot, the father is very happy today, the daughter should help her grandmother and aunt to do more."

   Jiang Liu, who was eager to go to the western courtyard to earn a cool night, had to say, "My daughter is not hot, so let's go, Daddy, we will take care of ourselves."

After her father left, Jiang Muyan grabbed her sister's hand excitedly and said, "Father really misses his mother, he won the jinshi, and he didn't forget to come over and tell his mother. When my father left, he even glanced at the incense burner. Seeing that the incense was still burning, I left. Sister…”

   "Sister..." Jiang Liu also held her sister's hand. That's not the case, his father came to show her mother that he could become a jinshi.

   "It's great! It's great!" Jiang Muyan choked with joy.

   "Hmm." It's good, this misunderstanding is very beautiful.

   Jiang Erye missed the opportunity to parade across the street after he won the first place in the Second Division. The first class of civil and military people paraded across the street, "seeing all the Kang'an flowers in one day" On this day, the streets were still full of people. Everyone felt lost because there was no Second Master Jiang in the first class. Looking at the black-faced Wu Tanhua who came on horseback, everyone couldn't help but think that if Second Master Jiang got Tanhua, it would be an unprecedented grand occasion today.

  It is a pity that such a scene will never be seen in this life.

  Three days after the champion parade across the horse, the two champions brought all the scholars to express their gratitude. After Emperor Jing He received the book of thanks, he personally approved the red letter, and ordered the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War to hold a grand celebration banquet to show his grace. This was the famous Qionglin Banquet and Huiwu Banquet.

  The imperial court held banquets and paraded horses across the street, all to show the imperial court's emphasis on the imperial examination system, and to encourage young people all over the world to study and practice martial arts and serve the country.

  Different from the Wenju Qionglin Banquet, only the top two can participate. Thirty Wu Jinshi were invited to attend the martial arts banquet hosted by the Minister of War. Long live also sent Yang Feng to deliver the imperial wine, and the banquet was very lively.

  The top three places in the first class are the focus of the Wuwu Banquet, as is Jiang Erye. He happily held the wine glass, and after taking turns to respect the Lords of the Ministry of War, he drank freely with his fellow jinshi, so he was very happy.

  The generals have always done things more quickly than the civil servants, and the banquet of the martial arts ended earlier than the banquet of Qionglin. After the banquet, Erye Jiang, who was not enjoying himself enough to drink, took the jinshi to the restaurant in the West Market for the second session.

   As soon as he left the military yamen, Jiang Bao came over and whispered a few words in Jiang Erye's ear. Jiang Erye said goodbye to the scholars and secretly rushed to the palace on the grounds that there was something in the family. Because Wan Sui passed down a secret decree, asking him to enter the palace to see him after the martial arts banquet.

   Jiang Erye got into a low-key carriage, and actually saw the **** chief, Yang Feng, inside.

   Yang Feng smiled and said to Er Ye Jiang, "Please take a shower in the car."

   It is really inappropriate to enter the palace with the smell of alcohol. Jiang Erye rinsed his mouth with the strong tea in the car, washed his face with clean water, put on the new shirt that Jiang Bao brought him, and then rode the carriage into the palace.

   Everyone, tomorrow's update is still in the evening, I'm really sorry.
