Genius remembers "→网." in one second to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Ten years of studying hard in a cold window.
From the county examination, to the government examination, then to the court examination, and finally to the palace examination, step by step, some people have gone for one term, while others have come and gone for as many as five or six terms.
"Hurry up, hurry up, the time for announcing the results is coming. Hurry up to the entrance of the palace to grab a good seat."
"I wonder what the results of this imperial examination will be like?"
"I heard that Wu Feng seemed to have received the imperial edict in advance. As for the other talents, no one has told them about it, so I think Wu Feng should be at least in the top three."
"I heard that Fang Zhengzheng has not received the imperial edict. I guess he will fall off the list this time, right?"
"Even if he doesn't fall off the rankings, Nangong Hao will definitely be at the top of the literary test."
"That's right!"
The talented people were exchanging news and guessing the results of the literary test as they walked. After all, this palace examination was too eye-catching.
Nangong Hao, ranked second on the rising dragon list, was recognized as the most talented person in the Great Xia Dynasty four years ago, plus Wu Feng, ranked third on the rising dragon list, was a close disciple of Qingshui Saint, one of the four saints.
There is also Yan Xiu, a rookie who showed extraordinary strength in the preliminary examination of the palace examination, and Fang Zhengzheng, who has always topped the double list from the county examination to the imperial examination, and is in the spotlight.
The entire Yanjing City is boiling.
At the main entrance of the palace, there was a mass of people. Merchants doing business in Yanjing City, as well as people and talented people were all crowded at the entrance.
Everyone hopes to hear the announcement as soon as possible.
At the entrance of the Zhaoxuan Hall, two rows of guards wearing golden armor were standing on the left and right, each holding a bright spear and waiting with solemn expressions.
Among the guards, the civil and military officials, headed by Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping, were standing at the entrance of Zhaoxuan Hall.
As for the talents waiting for the announcement, they stood about five hundred meters outside the entrance of the Zhaoxuan Hall, looking up at them one by one.
Yan Xiu, dressed in a gorgeous ink suit, stood among the talented people. His face was unusually cold, but his eyes were searching everywhere.
last night. Fang Zhengzheng did not return to the inn.
Yan Xiu was not too surprised at this point. After all, if Fang Zhengzheng got a little tired from listening to the music in the Dianmo Tower, it was normal for him to rest for a night in the Dianmo Tower.
only…
The time for waiting list has come. Why hasn't Fang Zhengyi shown up yet
In Yan Xiu's heart, although Fang Zhengyi was sometimes more casual and would do whatever he wanted, Yan Xiu never thought that Fang Zhengyi would make mistakes in principle.
Especially when it comes to big things like waiting for the announcement. Absence is simply not possible.
"Where did you go?" Yan Xiu looked towards the entrance of the palace, a trace of anxiety flashed in his eyes, but now he was in the palace, and it was impossible for him to get out before the announcement was over.
Can only wait.
Waiting for Fang Zhengzheng to arrive.
Wu Feng is in a pretty good mood now. Although there were some unpleasant episodes when he left the inn, the episodes are just an episode after all. They can only be inserted and cannot be compared with the real main theme.
Of course. A big reason why he is in a good mood is...
Fang Zhengzheng didn't come to hear the announcement? !
What a piece of good news.
Wu Feng had always heard rumors that Fang Zhengyi was very courageous. He was so courageous that he could confront officials in the court, and he was so courageous that he could insult officials in the hunting ground in the eastern suburbs.
However, it is still a bit exaggerated to say that he failed to pass the literary test in the imperial examination.
A romantic night…
Just go and have fun!
"Fang Zhengzheng didn't come? I don't know what he did."
"I heard someone said that he went to Dianmo Tower last night and was invited into the boudoir by Miss Xianyin. Could it be that he stayed up all night and couldn't wake up? Hahaha..."
"I think he doesn't dare to come to hear the announcement, right?"
"Young Master Qin hit the mark right after he said it. It's really brilliant. Fang Zhengzhi has not received the imperial edict, so he will definitely fail the literary test of this palace examination. It is normal that he does not dare to come to hear the announcement of the results, but..."
"Just how?"
"What a pity, Miss Xianyin. The great Qingming has been blamed by this guy."
"Yes, yes, what Mr. Wang said is true. I see that Fang Zhengzheng is not at Dianmo Tower at all now. Is he probably looking for a place to hide?"
"Hahaha… "
The talented people waiting for the announcement of the list naturally noticed that Fang Zhengzheng was not among those waiting for the list, so. He also laughed and discussed more unscrupulously.
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Wu Feng's mouth. If Fang Zhengzheng didn't come to wait for the order, he would naturally be hiding. He didn't believe that he was too tired to get up after a night.
While thinking this, Wu Feng's mood became better and better. His eyes swept across the crowd, and he was slightly certain, because he noticed a figure.
Nangong Hao.
Today, Nangong Hao is still wearing white clothes, but the blood stains that were originally stained on the white clothes have been gone. I don't know whether it was washed away or changed into a new suit.
There is some dust, but there is a hint of brightness in the dust.
That glimmer of brightness came from Nangong Hao's eyes, which looked like the sun in the sky, bright and dazzling, but a little high above.
It is very bright and you can see it clearly, but you cannot touch it, so you can only look up and keep looking up.
Nangong Hao was such a person in the minds of the talented men of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Too genius.
It was a kind of genius that was far beyond his peers, so much so that even if Nangong Hao didn't deliberately keep a distance from others, he still made people feel a little aloof.
Wu Feng actually wanted to know one thing.
That is whether Nangong Hao has received the holy edict. This is a matter of course, because with Nangong Hao's current state, it is impossible to fall off the list.
However, he was still thinking about this issue.
Like a beggar standing on the street in heavy rain, knowing that not many people will be walking on the street, but he still reaches out his hands with a hopeful heart.
This is a kind of expectation. What you are looking forward to is not your own extraordinary performance, but your opponent's mistakes.
Fang Zhengzheng submitted his paper in advance during the literary test, so he failed without any surprise. Nangong Hao also submitted his paper in advance during the literary test.
So, will the outcome be the same
What Wu Feng was betting on was not the strength of Fang Zhengyi and Nangong Hao, but the impact of handing in the papers in advance. How could the almighty emperor allow others to be disrespectful at all
The steps moved, and Wu Feng finally walked towards Nangong Hao.
"Master Nangong!" A kind smile appeared on Wu Feng's face, and he saluted Nangong Hao, with some humility in his movements.
When the other talents saw this scene, they stopped talking.
Wu Feng took the initiative to say hello to Nangong Hao before announcing the results
What is the purpose
Is it the mutual love between two strong men, or is it the beginning of a war
"Master Wu." Nangong Hao looked at Wu Feng in front of him. He did not reject him from thousands of miles away. He answered extremely humbly and returned a polite salute.
But even so, the talented people still felt that there was always a high wall between these two people that they could not see and could not climb over, which was very strange.
But it's very real.
Wu Feng's lips moved. He expected that Nangong Hao would not ignore him, but when Nangong Hao treated him with such courtesy, he was slightly surprised.
It's a visceral emotion.
It seems to be a kind of superiority, or inferiority.
This emotion flashed past, but Wu Feng was shocked in his heart. Why did he think that Nangong Hao's courtesy to him was a kind of charity
He is currently ranked third on the Shenglong Ranking.
There is only one place separated from Nangong Hao in the ranking...
Why is this so
Wu Feng felt that he should be in the same class as Nangong Hao, and the difference between them was only slight. He wanted to calm down, but in fact, that emotion followed him like a shadow and could not go away.
Therefore, after trying very hard to open his mouth several times, he still did not ask whether you had received the imperial edict.
He felt that when he asked this question, he could be very casual.
It was as casual as two friends asking each other if they had eaten, but when he actually stood in front of Nangong Hao, he found that he couldn't ask at all.
"Young Master Wu, you want to ask me if I have received the imperial edict, right?" Nangong Hao spoke again at this time, the expression on his face did not change at all, and his expression was extremely indifferent.
"Haha... In fact, there is no need to ask this question at all. With Master Nangong's talent, it is no wonder that he ranks first in the literary test of the imperial examination." Wu Feng smiled softly and tried to calm down his mood.
But the shock in his heart still made his voice tremble slightly, because when Nangong Hao said these words, he felt like he was being seen through.
It's like being seen through without any cover, which is very uncomfortable.
"I did not receive the imperial edict." Nangong Hao shook his head gently. When he said this, his tone was very calm, as calm as a windless ice lake.
Not a trace of ripples.
Even with the strong winds blowing, the ice remained ice.
Nangong Hao's tone was very calm, but it did not mean that the talents would remain calm after hearing Nangong Hao's words, because the news was too shocking.
"Did I hear you correctly? Nangong Hao... He said he didn't receive the imperial edict?!"
"How can this be?"
None of the talented people could understand it, because with Nangong Hao's strength, he could have topped the double list of the imperial examination four years ago.
Four years later…
Nangong Hao came out with his momentum and thrust into the center of Yanjing City like a sharp sword.
But he didn't receive the imperial edict
This is no different than a thunder falling from the sky.
The holy edict represents the top ten rankings in the palace examination literary test. Receiving the holy edict is equivalent to being on the list, and not receiving the holy edict is equivalent to being dropped from the list.
This is almost an indisputable fact.
Although it is said that even if you are not on the list, you can still be qualified to participate in the subsequent martial arts test if you are among the top 30 in the literary test, but no one thought that such a thing would happen to Nangong Hao.
Nangong Hao, the most talented person in the hearts of everyone in the Great Xia Dynasty...
