Chapter 239: Royal Street Praise Official

After the Golden Palace, 357 scholars were promoted to become Ming Jinshi and became the highest level of scholars.

Lin Haoran walked in the front as the champion Lang, the Bangyan Mao Yuanyuan walked on the left, Tanhua Xu Wei walked on the right, the second class Jinshi was behind, and then the third class was the same jinshi.

Everyone followed the officials of the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple in front, and the ceremony of "Praise the Officials of the Royal Street" began.

Lin Haoran and the other three enjoyed the honor of being a first-class jinshi, stepped on the royal road, and walked slowly towards the outside of the Forbidden City.

This is an experience that even the elders may not have had. Like Yan Song, although he is already an official to the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, he has never enjoyed such an honor.

This road can only be walked by a first-class jinshi, since the construction of the Forbidden City, only more than 100 people can walk on this road, and many people can eventually enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister.

The Imperial Road itself is not too special, after all, it is just a road to the outside. But walking on it and enjoying the supreme honor of this scholar inevitably makes people think about the past.

For the sake of the child's fame, some people sold their land; For the sake of Xiucai's fame, some people boiled their hair white; In order to raise people's fame, thousands of students in Guangdong competed for the seventy-five admission places; For the fame of Gongsheng, thousands of people from all over the country came all the way to Beijing to fight.

Along the way, even Lin Haoran felt that it was not easy, let alone these scholars who had studied hard for decades?

Mao Dianyuan and Xu Wei behind him were reminiscing about the past, tears overflowing from their eyes, and it could be said that they had to wipe a handful of tears after walking a few steps.

Especially Xu Wei, his father died when he was a child, and his biological mother was expelled from the house. Because he was born in a concubine's room, his status in the family is not high, and he feels like he is under the fence. Although he became famous at a young age, he repeatedly hit a wall on the road to the imperial examination, and he was even unable to support his mother.

Fortunately, in this Enke, he regained his confidence in the imperial examination, and finally accumulated his strength, reached the peak of scholars, and became the Tanhualang that everyone yearns for.

The road was thought to be very long, but it seemed to be in the blink of an eye, and the Chengtian Gate was in front of you. The three of them suddenly stopped at the same time, knowing that as long as they passed through this city gate, the road to the imperial examination would be over.

A large group of civil officials led the other three hundred and fifty-four new science and technology scholars out of the gate on the east side, and Lin Haoran and the three of them were still walking in the royal road and walked out from the main gate.

The vocal music outside suddenly sounded, and it seemed extremely festive.

After Lin Haoran and the three of them went outside, they left the royal road, followed the salute team to the left, and went to the place where the gold list was posted.

According to the habits of the past years, the gold list will be hung at the left gate of Chang'an, so this gate is also called the dragon gate, which has the meaning of the dragon gate.

The Ministry of Rites has built a festive atmosphere here, and in the sound of gongs and drums, someone hung up the gold list sent by the Ministry of Rites, and officially announced the results of the palace examination to the world.

The biggest difference from previous lists is the color of the paper. In the past, they were all written on red paper, but this time the list of the palace examination was written on "gold" paper, which was solemn and festive.

The gold list hung high, and the two county commanders of Shuntian Mansion Yin, Daxing and Wanping, who had been waiting here, walked towards the three of them, and gave them red flowers of different sizes.

The three hundred and fifty-four Jinshi are still "green leaves", and although their names are on the gold list, the next honors still have nothing to do with them.

Yan Beichen was also standing in the crowd, and he had already come back to his senses at this moment, but looking at Lin Haoran from a distance, his heart was like a knife. All this should have been his, but now it was robbed by this kid.

The ten Jinshi in Guangdong also looked at Lin Haoran from a distance, and they were very happy. didn't say that there was not the slightest jealousy in their hearts, but more was replaced by joy, because they had indeed formed a friendship with Lin Haoran.

What's more, all of them understand that although they all entered the officialdom at the same time as non-commissioned officers, Lin Haoran took the broad road, while they took the sheep's intestine path, and they must need Lin Haoran's care in the future.

Lin Haoran just put on a big red flower, and immediately someone brought him a tall horse with pure red coat, and Shuntianfu Yin personally helped him get on the horse, and shouted at the same time: "The new champion Lang Yujie is boasting."

The official in front of him sounded the gong to open the way, holding the champion lamp and holding the flag and the sign, with the words "champion and first", "even the six yuan", etc., and there are green fans and red umbrellas behind them, and the music played.

Just like following the royal road, this street still enjoys the privilege of the Son of Heaven. This team walked on the street, not to mention the members of the imperial court, even the royal family had to obediently give way.

Curiosity is something we all have. Especially in this era without media, many people are curious about who made the champion, how does the new champion look, is he tall, short, fat and thin? Or just want to get a little bit of style!

The rare champion Lang in several years is undoubtedly a big news of the times, so a large number of people in the capital gathered on Chang'an Avenue and surrounded it.

Not only on the streets, but also on the upstairs, trees, and rooftops of Chang'an Avenue are standing people, all of whom are stretching their necks, wanting to witness the "beauty" of Zhuang Yuanlang for the first time.

Because there are so many people that it can almost enclose the entire Chang'an Avenue, soldiers will be arranged to form a human wall every time to stop the people to the side of the road.

Women who rarely go out are also carefully dressed up today and come to watch together.

On an embroidery building on Chang'an Avenue, several young girls chattered there.

The person who presided over the party was the granddaughter of Wu Peng, the secretary of the ministry, who was dressed up extremely beautifully, and after wrapping the two floors of this embroidery building, he also invited some official girlfriends to come to the gathering.

"Sister Wu, did you tell Yan Gongzi? When he comes on a big horse, he'll notice us, right? Shuntian Mansion Yin's daughter came over and asked flatteringly at Wu Rong.

Wu Rong was like a proud peacock, tilting her chin and humming softly: "Of course, if he doesn't greet me, I'll let him take a good look!" After speaking, he proudly glanced at Wu Qiuyu next to him.

Wu Qiuyu didn't dress up much today, wearing a plain white long skirt, the slats on her head were simple and generous, but her natural beauty was hard to give up, her delicate face, and that elegant temperament made her stand out here.

In fact, she didn't want to be invited here, but it was difficult to refuse, and there was a force in the dark that was pushing her, and there was always a shadow of a person in her mind.

"Actually, it doesn't have to be him the champion, after all, when he was going to take the test, Huiyuan was taken away by a scholar in Guangdong!" Wu Rong looked at the flattering faces and deliberately said modestly.

"How can that person be compared to Yan Gongzi? I've heard that the twelve test papers presented to the emperor don't have him at all, but Yan Gongzi is ranked first! The people on the side laughed.

"Sister Qiuyu, what do you think?" Wu Rong smiled with satisfaction, and looked at Wu Qiuyu again.

"I think...... He could hit it too! Wu Qiuyu met everyone's eyes, bit her lower lip lightly, and plucked up the courage to say her true thoughts.
