Chapter 102 The Scholar and the Flower Demon 16

Only more than fifty people were admitted in this exam, so Yan Lang, the fifth place, registered for the fifth place, was on the turn when it was almost noon.

Yan Lang lost his composure at first, then hugged Xiao Tan and smiled foolishly in the room for a while, and then talked about getting married again - because of Xiao Tan's special personality and identity, Yan Lang often talked about this to her.

After talking for a long time, when the official who reported the good news came to deliver the good news, Yan Lang had recovered, and received the other party with a reserved but gentle manner, invited tea and gave the wedding money, and then sent it away.

At the same time, Yan Lang also learned from the official who reported the good news that the palace examination scheduled by His Majesty was just in the morning three days later.

Shortly after the official of the news agency left, naturally many people came to the courtyard in the same year to congratulate Yan Lang. Even the monks in charge of Fahua Temple once smiled and came to congratulate Yan Lang.

In the afternoon, we also received a gift from Mr. Xiang Er and Mr. Lian. Both of them did not give anything inappropriate. One was a good piece of Hui Mo, and the other was a precious ancient monument.

What Yan Lang didn't know was that the second young master Xiang was originally planning to give him clothes, shoes, hats and jade pendants, but even the young master stopped him. Isn't giving such things intentionally making things difficult for others?

If you don’t wear clothes when participating in the palace examination, wouldn’t it be a rejection of their kindness?

But if you wear it, you choose a position, and it will still make Yan Lang stand without knowing the identity of Young Master Lian. Not to mention that Yan Lang would never do such a stupid thing. Even if he was really stupid, Young Master Lian would be a pity that this person is not suitable for use.

Yan Lang was indeed relieved when he received such a gift, and then rejected various invitations from others and focused on preparing for the palace examination.

Although there is no saying that he failed the palace examination, Yan Lang was fortunate to be ranked fifth in the imperial examination. If his performance in the palace examination was too poor, he would have to disappoint some adults and even nobles who paid attention to him.

Although Yan Lang had never thought about whether to have a high official and generous salary, he had been studying for many years and doing poetry discussions, so how could he really not have a lofty ambition in his heart?

Not to mention striving for the best, you must fully utilize your abilities so that you can live up to more than ten years of hard study and family efforts.

As soon as the results of the test came out, the capital city was finally empty a lot quickly. Yan Lang left Fahua Temple a day early and was preparing to find an inn in the city.

This time, I left Fahua Temple and I never came back after I left. Yan Lang left and went to the Main Hall to respectfully incense for all the gods and Buddhas, and donated as much money as possible to incense as possible. It can be regarded as thanking the Buddha for his blessing and the temple for his care over the past six months.

Of course, there is another thing that Yan Lang didn't say it out loud, and he thanked him silently in his heart. Thanks to the Buddha Lord for letting Xiao Tan listen to the Buddha's voice and realize the Buddha's light, and his cultivation has improved a lot.

Yan Lang took Lin Song and left the courtyard with a flowerpot and was about to leave the gate of Fahua Temple when he was suddenly stopped by the little shaman. The little shaman smiled confusedly and handed Yan Lang a volume of scriptures.

Seeing Yan Lang reaching out to take it, the little shaman clasped his hands together and said Amitabha, "This is what the abbot specifically told the host to give it to you when you go down the mountain. The abbot also left you a sentence, saying that this volume of scripture can help you and your wife achieve everything they want."

When Yan Lang mentioned "Madam" in his words, he felt a sudden slap in his heart and immediately understood that Master Abbot knew Xiao Tan so early.

The abbot of Fahua Temple is a master who is very free and easy and loves traveling. Yan Lang had the blessing of Huizi Lu Kongruo and had the honor to meet him. Although he didn't say a few words, the abbot's Maitreya Buddha-like temperament left a deep impression on Yan Lang.

It can be said that because of the abbot, Yan Lang has a deeper piety to the gods and Buddhas of Fahua Temple.

Afterwards, Yan Lang summarized, and felt that the abbot was really capable of saving sentient beings. If he wanted to, Yan Lang felt that the abbot would definitely make the most vicious evil villains willing to put down their butcher's knife and escape into the monk.

Fortunately, the abbot seemed to have no intention, and the words of a few words showed that he would naturally have the idea of ​​such a fate.

After Lu Kongruo talked to the abbot, he seemed to have all his thoughts and ideas. The evidence was that Lu Kongruo came to Xiao Tan to recite scriptures again, but he never had a set of words like before.

Yan Lang unexpectedly received a volume of scriptures given by the abbot. Now he held it in his palm. He naturally thanked him respectfully and bowed to the main hall. Then he carefully put the scriptures into his arms.

The inns and houses that were originally filled with inns in the capital quickly became much empty in the shortest time. Yan Lang took Xiao Tan, who had turned into a human form, and Lin Song to join an ordinary inn. The next morning, Yan Lang wore a long gown and a scholar's hat, and left the inn with the official who came to pick up people in his most decent image.

Yan Lang followed the official for a while, then gathered with some people, took a ox cart pulled by the green cow, and creaked all the way to the palace alley.

Because Yan Lang and the others were both tribute scholars, they could take a car into the first palace gate and get off from the second palace gate. Following the officials of the Ministry of Personnel who had been waiting for a long time, they bowed their heads and walked quickly.

The palace examination starts when the sun rises and ends when the sun sets. The exam is released for about three days after the exam.

Yan Lang and his group met another group of people when they walked for two quarters of an hour. Yan Lang looked up and saw that they were all dressed as martial arts practitioners. It seemed that there was also a palace examination for martial arts at the same time today.

Today is not a grand ceremony. I guess there will be many noble people watching the fun in Wu Ju. After all, compared with Wen Ju, Wu Ju is indeed more interesting.

The leading officials from both sides greeted each other politely, and then a group of people stood there to give way, Yan Lang and others took the lead in passing the fork in front of the road.

In the literary and military practices, literary practices have always been more heavy, and it is also manifested at this time.

The weather is good today, and it is a very warm spring day, but Your Majesty is obviously very polite to many candidates, and he did not arrange the examination location outdoors because of the good weather.

Although it is just spring now, the spring in the north is also a bit hot. Today, many people come to participate without eating or drinking in advance to clear their stomachs and intestines in order to avoid being polite. If they really want to be outside, they will have to bask in the sun and blow light breeze when answering the paper. They will probably fall down in the afternoon.

The locations of the palace examinations have always been in Baohe Hall. Other candidates, including Yan Lang, entered the hall. Although they had been told not to make noise and not to look around, when they really arrived at Baohe Hall, which had countless great figures, they still couldn't help but feel excited and quietly glanced around with the corners of their eyes.

The official probably had this kind of mood at the beginning, so he just gave a few more words to tell the testimonials when he saw this, and then he didn't take much control and went to report to the examiner.

After standing there for a while, the examiner sat down with a shout, and Yan Lang and the others were led to the back of the shorter table by the guards with swords.

Everyone had to kneel down when answering the paper. Fortunately, everyone who came here had been tested for a long time. They quickly calmed down their excitement, took out their best condition and started waiting for the paper to be unloaded.

After posting the question paper, Yan Lang first read the question afterwards and felt sure that his family background could be considered an advantage.

This time, the people asked the people. You can tell from this that people from poor families can talk more about His Majesty's heart. Of course, at the same time, the situation should not be too small.

Speaking of this, I have to talk about my experience today.

He ascended the throne at the age of fourteen when he was young. This age is not young, but it is enough for some people to take the opportunity to seek power.

It took a few years after he ascended the throne today. His Majesty, who was young, deeply hated the powerful relatives of the foreigners, so most of the concubines in the harem had no deep background. If any prince was used, His Majesty would deliberately suppress the concubine's family.

After middle age, because of the increased control of the court, Your Majesty's pattern became more open, so he saw the harm of the aristocratic family. Therefore, in recent years, Your Majesty has been favored to use talents born from poor families.

Yan Lang was smart since childhood, and even in a remote village like Chongyang, he was able to reach today. Then he studied at Fahua Temple for more than half a year, and made great progress consciously. He successfully ranked fifth in the imperial examination, which shows that he is still a bit literary.

After answering, Yan Lang's heart completely calmed down.

It was almost noon, and the examiner hurriedly left Baohe Palace with several deputy, and then another sound of footsteps came in.

Because everyone was answering seriously, and the sword-bearing guards who were guarding aside were greeted in advance, they bowed and saluted to the people who came quietly, most of the candidates in the hall could not find the bright yellow figure coming in.

Of course, it is not ruled out that someone has discovered it but pretends not to find it. After all, if he discovers the person who is not focused enough when everyone answers the paper wholeheartedly, wouldn’t he seem to be inferior?

Today's emperor is already in his fifties this year. In this day, he is already considered an old man in his fifties. However, because two princes were damaged in succession, the emperor did not rush to establish another prince. He just often brought several princes by his side or arranged tasks for the princes.

Today, the emperor brought three princes by his side, namely the third prince, the sixth prince, the seventh prince.

These three people are quite popular, but the holy heart is hard to predict, and no one can tell who the emperor likes more. Even the smarter courtiers have not dared to stand still.

At this time, the emperor walked into the hall and glanced up, and couldn't help but look down on Yan Lang, who was kneeling on the fifth position on the left.

The candidates all sat opposite each other in a row of five people. In the middle, it was a passage for examiners to walk. There were steps above and the main seats on the steps. Only the emperor was qualified to sit.

Therefore, it continues from the steps to the outside of the hall gate. The fifth position on the left is exactly the first position the emperor and others see after coming in.

Of course, the few tables behind Yan Lang and the vertical row on the fifth place on the right are actually considered yes, but at this time everyone was used to taking the left as the respect, and even the emperor could not avoid the vulgarity and turned his attention to the left as soon as possible.

The emperor paid attention to Yan Lang, not just because of his location. Another point is the same as the reason why Yan Lang, a watery little cabbage in the wilted vegetable field in the examination room, received many attention from the examiner.

At this time, the morning exam was coming to an end. Almost most people emptied their stomachs and intestines from the beginning of supper last night. At this time, the excitement of entering Baohe Palace gradually calmed down. In this way, they naturally showed an uncontrollable state of inability to be mentally revealed.

Although Yan Lang also cleared his stomach and intestines to avoid losing his etiquette, Xiao Tan, who felt sorry for him, injected him with pure demon essence, and Yan Lang was naturally energetic.

Among a group of candidates who look pale and even have weak hands due to their lack of food or drinking, it is difficult for Yan Lang to be noticed without being noticed.

Let’s look at Yan Lang’s seat order. If you drink, you will still be ranked fifth. You are good-looking, mentally and physically, and you will also look healthy. You will have enough talent to learn.

The emperor asked the examiner next to him. When he learned the name of this person, he recalled that there was indeed a person in the good articles he had read a while ago, so he thought about it.

Yan Lang didn't know yet, but after a while, someone from the examiner took a cloth bell pounded and beat the gong. With a sound, it means that there is still one stick of incense to end the exam. I remind the candidates to hurry up.

Yan Lang has finished writing and is doing the final copy.

Although Yan Lang is good at drafting, he requires drafts during the exam. All of these drafts must be included in the database. If there is a problem with the test paper, the drafts can be adjusted.

It was said that it was a copying, but Yan Lang actually wrote it twice on two pieces of paper. When copying, he didn't even look at the draft paper, so he casually placed it on a few shorts and half to dry the ink marks.

In this way, Yan Lang naturally didn't know that someone had already stood there and looked down for a while.
Chapter completed!
