When Zhang Hu went to buy it, Chu Ci's ranking dropped a few more places, and the odds also became 1 to 17.

"Dahu, why did you make such a bet for your master?" asked the servant who instigated Zhang Hu to go to the gambling house last time.

"This is what the master asked me to buy. How many do you buy?"

The servant took out a ingot and looked gloomy: "Five liang, and it's five liang per restaurant."

"So many, if your young master doesn't--" Zhang Hu was a little worried, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted.

"Bao, bah, don't talk nonsense! Our young master said that he will definitely be the top scorer in high school this time!" The servant spat a few times with an unlucky look on his face.

"What should I do if my master?" Zhang Hu was anxious. His master was also here to take the top scorer!

"Let him stay wherever he is cool! You only dare to bet this little, but you dare to say that your master can get the top scorer? Your master only ranks more than 300 in the subject exam, let alone the top scorer, he

I can't pass anything."

"You nonsense! My master will definitely pass the exam!" Zhang Hu pushed the man and ran out angrily. When he left, he heard the person scolding him in anger: "That is, your master is willing to ask for one.

The fool serves! The servant is stupid, and the master is stupid too!”

His master is the smartest! He not only saved his father, but also made an injustice for his sister Yuan'er. In fact, Yuan'er was a sister, but she wanted to be a sister, so Zhang Hu asked her to be a sister. He remembered that he had a pale face from the well at that time.

He Yuan'er, who was caught out by someone, wiped her tears.

Chu Ci was sitting in the yard reading a book when he saw Zhang Hu running into the room and then rushed out with something in his arms.

"Big Hu, what are you doing?!"

"Master, don't worry, I will definitely let you win the No. 1 pick!" Zhang Hu said while running, his expression full of firmness.

Chu Ci held the book with a question mark on his face: Are you going to kidnap the emperor?

Zhang Hu ran to the restaurant and slapped his purse on the table: "Buy all my master!"

"Who is your master?" The dealer smiled happily at his heavy purse.

"Chu Ci, Xijiang Province!"

"Oh, okay, how much do you buy? We can only buy five taels at a time. Of course, if you want to buy more, the price is easy to discuss, but you just need to give my brother some benefits." Zhuangtou winked. In addition to Mingzhuang, he also

Created a dark village.

"I bought it all!" Zhang Hu said proudly. But when he opened his purse and exposed the large handful of copper coins and scattered silver inside, the banker wanted to scold people. Damn, is there a tael of silver in this sum?

Zhang Hu thought about it and took out the money Chu Ci gave him.

Yes, this time it looks like one or two is enough.

The head of the village pouted and counted for a while, and said weakly: "Have you bought all one or two cents of silver?"

"Yes!" Zhang Hu watched him open a note with the restaurant seal, blew it carefully, and then put it in his arms and put it in his arms.

On the first day of April, many students from the capital gathered together to form a club, and this time the students from the Imperial College were led by students.

The Imperial College in the capital has a much higher style than the provincial Imperial College. Naturally, many people support their students.

Chu Ci felt very hot last night, so he lifted the quilt and breathed. Unfortunately, he was caught in the trap and lay in a dizzy bed to rest, so he naturally couldn't go.

The next morning, the poems and articles written in the Peach Blossom Club were spread out yesterday, and everyone recited them on the streets and alleys.

Almost at the same time, the rankings of those students who signed up for the title rose slowly and the odds also dropped a lot. Some bought theirs and sighed. The joy was for them to be more likely to be the top scorer in high school, and sighed.

But it was for the odds of the day. If they were upset, they would have made more than that.

Some people fall, but some people naturally rise. Chu Ci's odds have soared, and it has become one loss of thirty-five.

Zhang Hu went out to listen to people's analysis every day. Every time he came back, he looked worried, afraid that his master would not be able to pass the top scorer.

On the other hand, his master Chu Ci looked like he was not worried at all. After he recovered from his illness, he still read books every day or went to the Xijiang Guild Hall to share his experiences with his fellow villagers.

On April 13, all restaurants stopped betting. Chu Ci heard from Zhang Hu that his current odds were at 42. The higher the odds, the lower the chances of being hit.

Looking at Zhang Hu's face that was about to cry, Chu Ci smiled: "Who told you that the master's fate is in their hands? They said I can't win, and I insist on winning it for him and them to see!"

Although the examiner of this examination is the emperor, he is just a nominee and does not participate in the judgment of the papers. The real examiner should be the Grand Secretary of the Hanlin Academy from the right prime minister.

This bachelor's degree was the class of the Grand Secretary last year. Last year, the man was scolded by many students for refusing to admit Zhang Qian, and was also ridiculed by many people writing poems and writing scripts for his lack of taste. It can be said that he was accused of being treated with this.

"The whole Beijing is black". The old man was so angry that he became sick. After he recovered, he was angry and wanted to retire and return home.

At that time, the new emperor was not long after he came to power, and everything was complicated. He reviewed the memorials accumulated there day and night. When he was sleepy, he didn't look closely and wrote a correct word on it. As soon as the red pen fell, the old man returned to his hometown in shame.

It's right.

According to the general procedure, I had to ask for three requests and stay three times. If I had to resign from my post later, the emperor would approve it. This old man's official can be said to be very unfair.

The right prime minister took this opportunity and quickly promoted one of the bachelor's students in the Hanlin Academy to the Grand Secretary, breaking the left prime minister's arm.

It can be said that last year, Zhang Qian and that adult were both useless people in the game between the two left and right phases.

This year, the Grand Secretary, whose surname is Guan, adheres to the consistent idea of ​​the right prime minister, and if he wants to obtain articles, he is basically enterprising and mainly reforming and reforming.

Of course, this is not a secret. All students could write in this way. However, the bad thing is that the examiner this year is the emperor, and Lord Guan can only participate in the judgment of the papers in the name of the deputy examiner.

There are three other deputy examiners outside him, one of whom is from the left prime minister, and two of them have ambiguous attitudes, making people confused about the details.

Although he was in charge of the matter, the three of them did not have a say. For example, this exam, the reformist scholars who wrote too much and showed their sharpness were pressed down. And those who wrote

It was too conservative and tended to be retro, so naturally it was rejected by Guan Ren.

What these two sides jointly recommend is an article with a very novel idea. Like other articles, no matter how obscure it is, you can see what the author really wants to express, but this article is standing by the sidelines.

It is fair to analyze the pros and cons from an angle and be impartial.

First of all, neutral officials are optimistic about this article. Over the years, both sides have been full of wings and often fight hard. Those who have not expressed their attitude often go to the home's banquet in the morning and to the west in the evening.

Although both sides were not close, they did not dare to offend either side. After a while, their waists were thicker.

These days, the articles they have revised are either sharp or extremely old-fashioned and dignified, which makes people feel really troublesome.

As soon as this article was published, they immediately pushed up. After reading the two sides, they also looked at each other, thinking that although this person is not from his side, it is better to develop it than to recommend an excellent person and be wiped out by the other party.

good.

In this way, in this examination, Chu Ci, who pursued the doctrine of the mean to the end, became the Huiyuan of this examination unexpectedly.

"Hui Yuanlang, congratulations." The singer-song-in-chief looked at Chu Ci, who was a little confused when he was called to the front, and smiled very kindly at him.

"Thank you, sir." Chu Ci came back to his senses and bowed and smiled. Before the exam, he secretly analyzed the situation and carefully inquired about the entanglements of the deputy examiners of this class. He really got the first place by chance.

In such partisan disputes, whoever dares to emerge is cannon fodder, which is far less safe than neutrality. He guessed that he could win, but he didn't know how to win the first place!

It turns out that the attendant also needs to be a teacher, but this time the attendant is the emperor. Who dares to receive the tribute from the students on behalf of the emperor? So, after singing the title, everyone went home.

Because the new emperor ascended the throne, there were many vacancies in various places, so a total of 278 people were selected in this conference. The admission rate was almost 6 to 1. Compared with the sixty to 70 to 1 in the provincial examination, the conference examination was

It's really much easier.

As soon as the Huiyuan candidate was selected, those who did not place bets could not help but sigh, but those who placed bets were extremely happy. If Chu Ci performed well in the palace examination and was named the top scholar, then this year would be a surprise.

Now!

Chu Ci didn't know that his every move had touched the minds of so many people. He only knew that the palace examination was held on the 21st, so he should think carefully about what might happen to His Majesty in the palace examination.

The palace examination was only one day and was held in Baohe Hall. It turned out to be placed in the square, but the wind in the north was strong and the rice paper was blowing constantly, so it was held in the hall later.

The questions for the palace examination will be presented on the spot by His Majesty the Emperor, and everyone can write a strategy for the questions given by the Emperor.

After this policy was presented, the cabinet was first judged by the two prime ministers, Baohe Hall, Wenhua Hall, Wuying Hall, etc. After the best ten people were evaluated, the top three were judged by His Majesty.

.

In other words, if you want the emperor to see your article, you must first advance to the top ten. Among the five people who score the paper, at least three must recognize you. Moreover, there are more people who will be given a trial this year, and there may be a deputy to help.

, How can we stand out from the hands of these people, rank in the top three, or even top?

At the beginning, Chu Ci actually did not have the ambition to win the top scorer. He only hoped to pass the Jinshi exam, end his hard-working imperial examination career, and embark on a new chapter in his life.

However, after he won Huiyuan, all this was different again.

During the provincial examination, he was Jie Yuanlang of the province. After the imperial examination, he was Hui Yuanlang again. If he won the top scholar in the palace examination, he could achieve the achievement of "Three Yuans and the Years".

Looking at the long history of China for 5,000 years, how many people can "san Yuan and the Year"? Chu Ci once learned in modern times that starting from the Sui Dynasty's imperial examination system, those who won this honor will be awarded in total.

There are only sixteen people.

Chu Ci is a scholar. Who has never dreamed of winning three yuan in a row and winning the title of the Golden List? Besides, he is not without the ability to compete.

Although this world turned a corner in the later period of history he knew, it was not a good thing for Chu Ci.

Perhaps, he can also write a brilliant stroke in this long history. He wants people in future generations to remember that there once appeared in the world called Chu Ci. He was since the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty.

The first top scholar to be the "three-yuan"!

The author has something to say: Update! I modified the typo before posting the previous chapter, and accidentally deleted it a little, which made the article not read very smoothly. It has been modified. You can go and take a look again. And, the final result will not be released tomorrow.
