The sky dawned, and the palace gates opened.

One by one, the majestic officials walked into the palace gate, led by three cabinet elders, followed by six Shangshu, and then the head of the Lang or various important yamen.

When the civil and military officials entered the palace gate one after another, an official of the Ministry of Rites began to check the examination cards and identities of their group of tribute students, and still beware of impersonation and carrying cheat sheets.

Of course, we have all reached this point, and no one will be stupid to cheat. Just to highlight the sacredness of the imperial examination, the process that should be carried out will continue on the part of the Ministry of Rites.

After checking their identities, three hundred and fifty-seven tributes gathered in front of the palace gate and stood in three columns.

It is worth mentioning that if a tribute encounters a mourning period or is seriously ill, he can choose to participate in the next palace examination. As a result, the number of people who took the temple examination at each time was often inconsistent with the number of new kogons.

Lin Haoran, as the leader of the association, was arranged to stand at the forefront of the team, standing alone in front of him, just like the "foreman face saint" who would try to report good news, and the second, third, and fourth places were behind.

Coincidentally, because he was respected by the left, Yan Beichen, who was in third place, could only stand behind Lin Haoran's ass aggrievedly. There is no need for Lin Haoran to look back, he knows that there must be a crooked face behind him.

"Xuanjiajing Wuwu Kegong Shengjin!"

After a while, the long voice of a eunuch came from the palace gate.

Lin Haoran did not have the slightest timidity, his face showed a serious demeanor, and he took a solid step, walking towards the sacred place of Xiyuan, and into the highest power center of today's Ming Dynasty.

From Qingshui County, Gaozhou Mansion, Guangzhou Gongyuan, and Shuntian Gongyuan all the way, now he will fulfill the long-cherished wish of millions of scholars in the Ming Dynasty and enter this last battlefield.

Maybe it was because he was ahead, or because he thought of the previous president, his heart quietly ignited his fighting spirit. Since they have come to this point, why not fight for this champion?

The palace gate cave is very deep and thick, as if passing through a small stone mountain. When you walk through a long and narrow palace road, your eyes suddenly open up, and it is like coming to a mythical place.

The red walls and yellow tiles, the palaces and towers, are disordered. On the blue brick floor, the white jade railing, and the well-armored guards walked through it, and there was a murderous aura on their bodies.

Lin Haoran witnessed all this, and also realized the supremacy of imperial power in this era, which is just a person's home, but the result is like a fairyland and a fortress.

After passing through the two palace gates, their group came to the Zhenkun Dao Hall, where all the tributes would be bathing.

Bathing in the face is a sacred ritual, but it also carries out the next traditional ritual of the imperial examination, the search.

It's just that all the tributes are about to become Jinshi, and they can't touch their whole bodies like they can try, it's too undignified. But this glorious tradition could not be abandoned, so when Gongsheng took off his clothes and bathed in the tub inside, there would be personnel outside to inspect their clothes and belongings.

In fact, when it comes to the palace examination, there is no room for cheating with a cheat sheet, and the palace examination is a current affairs strategy, and copying the famous articles of the predecessors will only be directly entered into the top three.

That's why no one would do such stupid things, and too many of the search officers were just mere formalities.

After taking a shower and regrouping the line, everyone followed the officials of the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple towards the examination room.

The examination room is arranged in front of the Ziguang Pavilion, and there is a wide platform in front of this majestic Ziguang Pavilion. The white stone railings, carved dragon pillars, and the tables and chairs for the examination have been neatly arranged.

When Lin Haoran and the others came to the Purple Light Pavilion with the officials of the Ministry of Rites, the sun had already risen in the east, dyeing the Purple Light Pavilion with a layer of golden light, and the building seemed more solemn and sacred.

The officials who had come in earlier had already separated in front of the cabinet, and were quietly exchanging voices there.

Under the leadership of the officials of Honglu Temple, the Gongshi team stood behind these officials. It's just that in the face of these court bigwigs, the emperor is about to come, so everyone doesn't dare to say anything.

Even the most arrogant Yan Beichen was hung down by his head at this time, like a well-behaved elementary school student.

Lin Haoran looked around curiously, and saw Xu Jie, who was wearing a python robe and jade belt on the opposite side, with a smile on his face, and the whole person seemed to be very kind, as if he had discovered him, and nodded slightly at him.

I want to respond.,This is the first assistant in the future!

It's just that he suddenly found that Wu Shan, who was wearing a red court uniform, looked at him, and he looked full of authority, but his face was in stark contrast to Xu Jie, as if he owed him money all over the world, and his eyes were still full of warning.

God is really blind, how did I become the protégé of this goods?

Faced with this kind of fierce gaze, Lin Haoran could only choose to hang his head, and drew circles in his heart, and began to worry about his career.

In his previous life, he had already understood that standing in line was more important than ability. And obviously, he is definitely on the wrong side, and there is absolutely no interest in being a bastard with this goods.

Especially until now, he still can't figure out what kind of festival this thing has with Yin Tai, and he is so angry with himself, is it because I am handsome?

While he was thinking wildly, a burst of music suddenly played.

"The ministers knock on my emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live, long live......"

The ministers of civil and military affairs in front knelt and kowtowed, and Lin Haoran also followed to bow down, but he looked left and right with his eyes, and found that there was movement on the right, and then someone passed by the road in front.

"Flat!"

After a while, a rather rhyming voice came from the steps in front of the Purple Light Pavilion.

Lin Haoran knew that this was the legendary Emperor Jiajing, and followed the officials in front of him to get up, and as they turned around, facing in front of the Purple Light Pavilion, he endured that curiosity and slowly raised his head.

He saw the glittering dragon robe in the sunlight, as well as the indifferent emaciated face and slender beard, and his eyes revealed indifference.

Although he does not have the legendary king's aura, he does exude a powerful aura, as if the person standing above him is not an ordinary human being, but a martial arts master whose eyes can take life and death from death.

"Preach!"

Emperor Jiajing followed those leaders who liked to speak at length, and seemed to be a person who cherished words like gold, glanced at the old eunuch next to him, and said indifferently.

The old eunuch saluted, and immediately faced the crowd and unfolded the decree to read it. In addition to announcing the reason for this holding of Enko, then there are some hadiths.

After reading out, Jiajing took a gold-handled cutter, opened the test questions on the yellow case in full view of everyone, and then handed the test questions to the old eunuch Huang Jin next to him.

Huang Jin handed over the test paper to Honglu Siqing, who was like a messenger and sent the test questions to the emperor on the east side.

Xu Jie picked up the test question, but his voice was not loud, but he shouted with all his might: "In the thirty-seventh year of Jiajing, the Wuwu Branch Hall Exam begins!" ”
