In terms of age, although Su Qing is younger, he is still a few years older than Fang Zheng. In terms of official rank, both of them belong to the fourth rank of court officials. Moreover, Su Qing also holds the real power of the Imperial Academy Governor. ◇↓◇↓，
What do you think…
These four words "Ruzi Ke Jiao" were a bit strange coming from Fang Zhengzheng's mouth.
But Fang Zhengzheng just used it, and he used it very calmly and peacefully. If it weren't for his slightly immature face, the courtiers would have thought it was an elder admonishing the younger generation.
Su Qing said nothing more.
Because, he knew that if he opened his mouth again, it would be swearing.
A person can have super endurance, but everyone's endurance has a limit. Su Qing is a human being, so he also has a limit.
Fang Zhengzheng actually wanted to say a few more words. It would be best if he could make Su Qing roll on the ground, and then act as wildly as a shrew in the White Jade Square.
But Su Qing didn't speak, so he couldn't continue because he had to pay attention to quality.
The qualities of a literary man.
Nangong Hao also didn't say anything else. He handed the answer sheet in his hand to the envoy who sealed it, then turned around, left the desk, walked through the talented people, and walked towards the gate of the palace.
The bright red maple leaves between the corners of the clothes were blown up by the autumn wind and rolled up, dyeing the clothes with a hint of red.
All the talents' eyes widened instantly, because they saw that the mark on the corner of Nangong Hao's clothes was not a real maple leaf, but blood, blood shaped like a maple leaf.
Where did Nangong Hao come from
Why is there blood on his body, and why is this blood in the shape of a maple leaf
The talented people don’t know.
However, the Holy Master Lin Mubai did not seem to be surprised. He just looked at Nangong Hao who was gradually leaving, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
…
The literary test of the imperial examination is finally over.
The time and place for releasing the list is set for five days. The Imperial Palace's Imperial Palace is where emperors of each generation passed away or ascended the throne to declare imperial edicts.
This was supposed to be a place where every generation of emperors paid homage to their ancestors.
But after the Holy Emperor Lin Mubai ascended the throne, he set the location for the announcement of the imperial examinations here. Many people did not understand because they believed that the Zhaoxuan Palace should be the residence of the emperor.
emperor. The reason why he is called an emperor is because he is a true dragon and the Holy Son of Heaven. He is different from mortals and cannot receive honors in the same palace as mortals.
Among these people was the previous Minister of Rites.
He once displayed the deeds of emperors in the past dynasties, and stated that twelve of them were inconsistent with etiquette and law, hoping that the Holy Emperor Lin Mubai could take back this decree.
but…
It's of no use.
Holy Master Lin Mubai insisted. After reading the twelve etiquettes carefully, he said calmly: "I think there is nothing wrong with it."
Then. There will be no more.
Zhaoxuan Hall became the place where the imperial examinations were announced. After decades of ups and downs, it witnessed generations of talented people coming and going eagerly. It did not change until the current Minister of Rites took office.
This is the palace that most talented people yearn for in the Great Xia Dynasty. Likewise, it is also the most heavily guarded place in the palace.
But today, the lights of Zhaoxuan Palace were on.
This is not ordinary.
because. The lights here are only lit during the annual memorial ceremony when the emperor ascends the throne. Or it will light up only when the results of the palace examination are announced every two years.
But today he just turned on the light.
Then, there is only one possibility: the person in Zhaoxuan Palace is a generation of emperors.
The layout of the Zhaoxuan Hall is somewhat different from that of the halls in other palaces. If the layout of the other halls is splendor, then the Zhaoxuan Hall is completely different.
Wisps of sandalwood scent filled the halls of Zhaoxuan Hall, and the smell was refreshing.
On the antique long desk. There are sealed answer sheets one after another.
As an emperor, the Holy Sage Lin Mubai should be busy with many things and government affairs. He does not need to review these answer sheets in person. In fact. He has done the same thing in the past.
Very simple method.
He only needs to summon eight ministers, who will review them one by one, hand the top ten or even the top twenty answer sheets into his hands, and then let him decide the top three.
But this time, the Holy Master Lin Mubai did not do this.
The amount of review of nearly two hundred answer sheets was staggering, but the Holy Master Lin Mubai still reviewed it, and he reviewed it in person, from the end of the literary test of the palace examination to now Xinghuo at night.
For five hours, he sat in the Zhaoxuan Hall without leaving a step.
Somewhat unreasonable.
Moreover, the most important thing is that the Holy Emperor Lin Mubai did not choose the familiar imperial study room, but set the location of the review in the Zhaoxuan Hall.
The autumn night is a little cool.
The lights in the Zhaoxuan Palace are still on, and the lights in Yanjing City are also very bright. Little by little, they converge with the stars at night, like the Milky Way falling into the mortal world.
The lights in Prince Duan's Mansion are on, and individual figures are shuttled through Prince Duan's Mansion.
The lights in the Prince's Mansion in the East Palace were also on, and carriages drove past the gate, leaving behind courtiers in court uniforms.
The lights in Pingyang's mansion dimmed, and there were no people in the dimmed lights, which meant that Pingyang had left the mansion in the middle of the night.
As for what to do
No one knows.
…
Tiandao Pavilion towers into the clouds and has steep peaks. If you watch the stars in the night sky from the top of Tiandao Pavilion, you will be the place where you can best feel the light of the stars.
At this moment, wearing a pink skirt, a green hairpin, and bright eyes, she stood quietly on the top of the main peak of Tiandao Pavilion.
She stepped on a rock with her bare feet and looked up at the stars.
There was a girl standing behind her, wearing a slightly thick coat and a gray-white fluffy shawl around her neck. But even so, she still held her hands tightly and her lips trembled slightly. With.
Autumn is slightly cooler.
That means at the foot of the mountain, in a place like Tiandao Pavilion, the autumn air is so cold that it's bone-chilling and cold enough to make people shiver.
only. The girl did not speak, because Chi Guyan stood in front of her without speaking, so as a maid, she must not speak.
finally. Chi Guyan's head slowly lowered, and the bright starlight lit up in her eyes. In other words, there was no longer a starlight, but a Milky Way, a Milky Way filled with starlight.
Yue'er looked at the Milky Way in Chi Guyan's eyes with a little envy, but there was no jealousy in her eyes, instead she was full of pride. If she were standing beside Chi Guyan at this time.
"Today is the imperial examination, right?"
"Yes, Miss, you have not cared about the outside world during this period, so I didn't mention it to you." Yue'er immediately replied after hearing Chi Guyan's words.
"Hmm...Did Nangong Hao participate?" Chi Guyan nodded gently.
"participated."
"I actually participated..." Chi Guyan's lips moved slightly, as if talking to himself. He seemed to be thinking about something.
"Miss, do we need to do something?"
"It's useless. If it's Nangong Hao, then the outcome of this palace examination has already been decided."
"Miss, do you think Fang Zhengzheng will lose?"
"I don't think he will lose, I just can't think of the possibility of him winning, so I can't do anything and don't know what to do."
"Is there anything in this world that you can't think of?" Yue'er was obviously a little surprised.
"Yes. For example, this one." Chi Guyan nodded slightly, and his eyes gradually turned to the east, where was the seat of the imperial capital of the Great Xia Dynasty, Yanjing City.
Yue'er looked at Chi Guyan's expression. I was slightly surprised.
After Chi Guyan went down the mountain and returned to Tiandao Pavilion, his whole person seemed to have completely changed.
He no longer asks about the affairs of the court, and is no longer as indifferent as before. He occasionally chats with her, talks about training methods, and teaches him swordsmanship from time to time.
Just like the sentence just now.
If it were the previous Chi Guyan, she would never say such a thing, because no matter how difficult it was, she would definitely think of a solution.
"Gu Yan, congratulations!" At this moment, a slightly older voice came from a distance, and then, a figure appeared behind Chi Guyan.
He was dressed in a white robe and had white hair, but the skin on his face was smooth and rosy, making him look like a young man of about twenty years old.
"Yue'er, meet the Pavilion Master!" Yue'er saw the figure appearing beside her and immediately kowtowed.
The master of Tiandao Pavilion, 'Mu Qingfeng', is a person who truly stands at the top.
"Well, you stand here with Gu Yan every day. It's not enough to just add a few clothes. There is a piece of warm jade here. Take it." As soon as Mu Qingfeng finished speaking, a crystal square ancient jade fell on the moon. In his hands.
"Yue'er, thank you Pavilion Master!" Yue'er immediately kowtowed in thanks.
"Get up." Mu Qingfeng raised her arm slightly, and Yue'er, who had been prostrating on the ground, stood up.
"Master." The Milky Way in Chi Guyan's eyes disappeared at this moment, and he turned around and saluted Mu Qingfeng with an extremely respectful expression.
"Well, now that you have realized it, you can make a breakthrough." Mu Qingfeng nodded.
"Breakthrough? Didn't Master say that I should lay the foundation for suppressing the realm and wait until two years before I can break through?" Chi Guyan seemed a little confused when he heard Mu Qingfeng's words.
"The foundation is already solid, and there is no point in suppressing it any further." Mu Qingfeng shook his head.
"I understand." Chi Guyan nodded.
"If my teacher's guess is correct, Nangong Hao should have made a breakthrough." Mu Qingfeng looked at the direction where Chi Guyan was standing on his toes, thought for a moment, and said.
"Master, are you saying that Nangong Hao has reached the Returning Light Realm?"
"Yes, but I guess no one knows about this, including the Nangong family." Mu Qingfeng nodded slightly and looked in the direction of Yanjing City. Soon, a little light flashed in his eyes.
That's the light.
Just like the lights lighting up in Yanjing City.
Chi Guyan didn't speak. She just stood there quietly, raising her head slightly and looking at the stars in the sky again. A bright Milky Way appeared in her eyes again...
