After noon on March 17, there were more guests in the teahouses and restaurants in the capital. They were all tribute scholars waiting for the results of the palace examination. They were nervous and even if they didn't expect themselves to be ranked first in the first place, they still hoped that they would be ranked second in the first place.

Although "Jinshi origin" and "Jinshi origin" are only one word different from "Jinshi origin", there is a huge difference in future careers.

At noon, the tribute scholars who were waiting for the news whispered and talked a lot, saying that it was the news that had just been heard in the palace. The emperor decided not to select Shujishi from the Jinshi of Jiwei. In other words, after the palace examination, the review and inspection of the Hanlin Academy will be cancelled, and the candidates will lose Shujishi, the way to enter the Hanlin Academy.

The news soon exploded among the scholars.

"...If we don't choose Shuji, how can we enter the Hanlin Academy? If we don't become Hanlin, the court will stop our scholars from being the ones in the position of ministers!"

This tribute seemed to be very serious, but how many people could actually be ranked among the ministers?

"That may not be necessary. I just said that I would not select Shujishi, and I didn't say that I would not enter the Hanlin." Someone reminded, "I would blame Tang Yin and Xu Jing. If they hadn't obtained the title in advance, and made Your Majesty doubt whether this Jinshi was involved in the case at the same time, it would be impossible for this matter!"

"Yes, I will write to the court to punish Tang and Xu and kill their heads!"

A bunch of people clamored, and they were gathered together to wait for the news of the report and congratulated each other, but they didn't expect that the good news would not come, so they waited for bad news first.

Then to the previous case of sales involving Tang Yin and Xu Jing, the spearhead was directed at the two unlucky guys who were being punished in the prison of the Beizhen Fushi.

Although the scholars were even more annoyed by Cheng Minzheng, the emperor still did not imprison Cheng Minzheng. Cheng Minzheng did not even resign and wanted to attack the officials in power in the court. They did not have the courage to do so.

In the corner of the second floor of the teahouse, there was a table of inconspicuous guests. The person sitting at the edge of the window was Su Tong, the candidate of Tingzhou Prefecture, Fujian.

Su Tong did not win the tribute and was not qualified to participate in the palace examination. But he still came to a place where the tribute and wanted to find out the news. What he was most concerned about was Shen Xi's final grade. There was still one person at the same table with him, but Li Yu, a son of a Beijing merchant who almost fought against him two days ago.

The two of them had only been together for a month. When they met in brothels, they were looking for flowers and willows. Because Su Tong was good at learning and speaking well, he could recite poems and essays like a look, Li Yu was quite impressed, and birds of feathers flocked together. Soon they walked together.

Li Yu did not respect Su Tong much, and at most he thought he was a friend of drinking and meat. But when he learned that Su Tong was a juren who went to Beijing to take the exam in Fujian, Li Yu immediately changed his face. He praised Su Tong in the past two days and was extremely attentive. He even invited Su Tong and "Painter Zhao" to visit the Li family by apologizing for the day before yesterday.

It seems to be a very glorious and decent thing to be able to let the boss enter the house.

"Brother Su didn't say that he failed to make the list in this exam, so why did he stay in the capital and never return home?" Li Yu asked with some confusion while politely treating Su Tong.

Su Tong glanced at Li Yu, then turned his eyes and looked at a group of tribute scholars who were talking on the other side. These people who were about to become Jinshi are already in the form of walking horizontally on the ground in the capital. Even the court officials are not as high-profile as this group of people. Once they get rich and do not show off, let others know that their status is outstanding. Isn’t this palace examination in vain?

At the beginning, I was just clamoring, but afterwards I saw who had a louder voice.

"A friend participated in the palace examination and made an appointment with him to wait for him to be nominated for the Golden List before I left." Su Tong smiled, with a little smug look on his face, "Maybe I will come to the exam again in three years, he is already the same examiner..."

Li Yu's eyes lit up. After all, he had not even passed the county examination. He didn't quite understand some of the rules in the officialdom. He was wondering why these tribute scholars were so popular, and it turned out that there was such a reason.

These days, the Jinshi is extremely precious. As long as you pass the Jinshi, you will basically be allowed to be vacancied. It is just a matter of whether the official is big or small, whether it is a real or a nominee. These people in front of you can still be considered a group of angry young tributes. After some days, when you see them again, you will be respectfully called "Master".

Li Yu quickly asked, "I wonder if Brother Su can introduce this person to me? I really want to visit this new Jinshi and give me a gift..."

Su Tong thought to himself, have I introduced all of them to you?

Unfortunately, you don’t know that he is the famous Chen Xi in this exam. He shook his head and said, “Let’s talk about it if you have the chance.”

Li Yu heard Su Tong's words a little perfunctory, and sighed in his heart, but thought: "It's better to take the imperial examination. If you pass the scholar, you will be fame and honorable. Then, you will be able to get the Jinshi. Even if you fail the exam, as long as anyone of your friends you know will pass the exam, you will have an official backer... I must find a way to let Brother Su introduce you on your behalf."

Li Yu called a great refreshment, but this little favor obviously couldn't impress Su Tong. Su Tong was also a rich child, not a down-and-out person. Even if Su Tong had been away for a long time and was a little short of money now, he was inseparable from food and drink. At most, he didn't have that much spare money to go out for a romantic life.

Li Yu thought about this and smiled and said, "Since Painter Zhao is busy with something, Brother Su should be fine. Why don't we go to Xiaoyue Tower to eat two glasses of water and wine now?"

"Oh? That's pretty good."

Su Tong finally smiled on his face, "But I'd better wait for the palace examination to be released first, but I said that my friend is likely to be listed in the first class."

Li Yu is considered a scholar, and he knows what the concept of Yijia is.

There were only three people in the first class of the palace examination, the top scorer, the second-place winner, and the tribute scholars just now said that even if the court did not select Shuji, the three people in this class would definitely be awarded Hanlin officials.

Li Yu heard Su Tong say how powerful this friend is, and although he didn't believe it, he was still quite looking forward to it.

According to the rules of the palace examination in previous years, the results will be released early in the morning of the third day after the palace examination, and will only be delayed until afternoon at the latest. However, the results of this palace examination have already reached the end and there is still no movement.

The court would not delay for no reason. The tribute scholars were nervous, but at least they knew that they could win the third place even if they were not good. However, if they continued like this, they were a little impatient. They brought their entourage and asked their entourage to go out to inquire about the situation. If other places start to report good news, they should come and report it as soon as possible.

As time goes by, the palace examination finally came out.

Unlike the order of the list of the book, the rankings are reversed. Start with the third level, then to the second level, and finally the first level.

Because there are 202 people in the Three Academic Examinations, most of the tribute scholars who passed the Ministry of Rites will be included in the Three Academic Examinations. When the people who reported the good news came, although they were within the expectations of the tribute scholars, they were not sad or happy, and at most they were calmed down... Finally, the articles in the palace examination were not prohibited. As long as they were not brushed down, even if they passed the Jinshi, they would still return home in glory and shine on their family lintels.

Those who received the Three Firsts were awarded the Jinshi uniform.

The Jinshi headscarf is like a black gauze hat, with a flat top, with a wide angle of more than a century, and is about five inches long. It is tied with a hanging belt and a soap yarn. The dark blue robe is made of green robe, and the sleeves are wide without killing. The scepter is made of locust wood, and the belt is green leather, decorated with black horns, and the tail is hanging behind it.

Although the Jinshi uniform is not an official uniform, it seems extremely formal. In the future, the imperial palace will need to be worn. Candidates who have obtained the Jinshi uniform will go back and prepare quickly. If it is not suitable, they can find someone to exchange them, but they cannot cut and modify them without authorization.

Because this outfit was only lent for candidates to wear for a few days. After the ceremony of giving a visit to Confucius's most sage, it will be returned to the court and left to the next Jinshi.

After the Three A news reports, there were only two or three tribute scholars in Su Tong's teahouse.

In the palace examination, no news is usually good news, not to mention that the third class has been announced to be 202 people. The candidates counted on their own, and there were 95 people in the second class and three people in the first class. There were exactly 300 people, which means that no one failed the palace examination in this palace examination. If they were not in the third class, they must be in the second class or above.

After the second grade was released, more people began to pay attention to the news reports on the streets that were reported by good news. When the news reports were reported, they would shout the names and rankings of the Jinshi of the Second Grade very loudly:

"Master Chang of Suzhou, the 36th place in the second place in the high school entrance examination!"

...

"Mr. Li, Jiangling, ranked 19th in the second place in the high school palace examination!"

...

"Mr. Sun, the first place in the second place in the high school palace examination."

In the announcement of good news, the candidates' hometown, surname, and ranking will only be mentioned, and they will not be considered as Jinshi or from the same Jinshi, because before the imperial palace was published on the second day, they were all just tributes. The name of Jinshi was given by the emperor himself. Even the names of Jinshi could not be called by ordinary children because they passed the Jinshi. They were all "a master".

The good news for the second-class students starts from the 95th place in the second-class students to the end of the first-class students Sun Xu. Due to the different places where the candidates live, they actually want to know which candidates are listed in the next day and only need to know after the listing is over.

"It's almost done."

Su Tong finally couldn't sit still when he arrived at the window and looked at the street outside. It was less than a street from Dongsheng Inn. If the person who reported the good news came out of the Ministry of Rites, he would have passed by here. Su Tong had been waiting for Shen Xi's final ranking, and he felt a little nervous, but the later the news came, the higher the ranking.

Li Yu asked in confusion: "Brother Su, what's going on? And... Brother Su's friend, should we go and ask clearly what kind of list is listed?"

Li Yu took the opportunity to find an opportunity to encourage Su Tong to take him to meet this "Jinshi friend".

Su Tong shook his head slightly and said, "No need, let's go to a place first, not far from here."

Li Yu settled the account and went downstairs with Su Tong. Before he could take a few steps to Dongsheng Inn, he heard a voice behind him saying goodbye: "Good news, Mr. Shen, Ninghua County, Fujian Province, the top scorer in the high school entrance examination, Jiebao, Ninghua County, Fujian Province..."

The good news of the top scholar was revealed, and several nearby streets were clamoring.

In this year, the top scholar was the most outstanding representative of the carp leaping on the dragon gate, and was also the one who was praised by the people and scholars as idols. Only one in three years has been there.

Now that I know that the top scholar is Mr. Shen from Ninghua, Fujian, some people have called him the name "Shen Xi". After all, after fighting with Tang Bohu and selling titles, the name Shen Xi has been mentioned in the capital recently, even if it is not a household name, everyone among the scholars has mentioned it.

"Mr. Shen has won the top scorer, Mr. Shen has won the top scorer. Let's go and enjoy it, you will be the top scorer!"
