When Kou Zhun was eight years old, he climbed Mount Huashan and composed a poem: "Only the sky is above, and there are no mountains to keep it together." When you raise your head, the red sun is approaching; when you lower your head, the white clouds are low. '
Others sigh at this son and say that he has great ambitions. Why not become prime minister?
Later, this was true.
"The sun and the moon shine and heaven is virtuous, and the mountains and rivers are where the mighty emperor resides. There is no way to repay peace, but I wish to write thousands of words about it."
…
Zhang Yue finished reciting it in one breath, but saw that Hanlin, who was in charge of revising daily life notes, was already too busy.
Zhang Yue said: "Your Majesty, these are eighteen poems to encourage learning that I wrote before the palace examination. I present them now to repay the emperor's kindness and encourage those who come!"
The ministers were stunned.
Although it was not written in the palace, the eighteen poems to encourage learning are unprecedented and unprecedented.
It is more important to adapt to the situation.
Han Qi, Ouyang Xiu, Song Qi, Zeng Gongliang, Wang Gui and others all smiled.
The high-ranking official Zi Fei holds a banquet in his hand, and in the poem, "The nobles in the dynasty are all scholars," "I am a farmhouse minister in the dynasty, and I ascend to the Emperor's Hall in the evening," and "The golden medal is passed down from the Jade Palace, and I am gifted with a head by the king." Repeatedly Consider.
Once this poem of encouragement to study is published, I am afraid it will be like a three-character poem again, and it will be difficult for scholars all over the world to recite the entire text.
Zhao Zhen stood up from the throne and leaned on the railing and said: "Although he is not a talented person, nor is he a first-class poem, he is better than being easy to understand, catchy, and encouraging to learn..."
Having said this, Zhao Zhen paused and said, "There is no need to record these words."
The official who was busy writing at the side stopped writing, bowed to the emperor, scrawled a line on the book, and recorded it again.
"Your kindness is profound!"
Many officials in the hall sighed sincerely when they saw this scene.
Zhao Zhenfu sat on the throne and said: "Peace cannot be repaid, but I would like to write thousands of words to suit this scene. The talent of the number one scholar is really a branch of Guilin and a piece of jade in Kunshan. I will reward you!"
The official on the side said: "The number one scholar presented eighteen poems to encourage students to study in the palace, and gave him a set of four treasures in his study."
"I will give you the official robe of the number one scholar and one pair of Liuhe boots."
"Give the number one scholar a pair of golden flowers."
"Given to the University, two chapters on Confucianism."
"Give me one hundred thousand dollars."
Such words from the eunuchs were spread from the imperial guards outside the Chongzheng Hall to the square, and all the Jinshi scholars heard about it.
Wang Anli, who was ranked the same as Zhang Yue, said to Wang Yanyan: "When I was the number one scholar, I entered eighteen poems. This talent is far inferior to that of even Cao Zijian!"
Wang Yan sighed: "The number one scholar is a literary star. Not to mention eighteen poems, he can even write thirty-six poems."
"Of course."
Then the imperial guard said again: "Your Majesty has a decree to grant a banquet to the Jinshi. Zhuke Qionglinyuan will grant a banquet of 300,000 yuan!"
All the Jinshi present were jubilant.
At this point, the story of the Golden Palace has been completed.
Zhang Yue, Chen Mu, Wang Zhichen, Sandingjia and Yijia walked out from Chongzheng Hall to the square.
In the square, the Jinshi all put on green robes and long-winged official hats, and lined up at the foot of the steps, each standing in the order of one, two, three, four, and five. Jia Tou (the first of each Jia) is at the top.
Zhang Yue and ten other people came to the steps and bowed to all the Jinshi. They all responded.
Although there is a rush to be first in the examination room, it does not mean that there is a rush to be first every time.
Although I am a little faster this time, you can catch up and keep pace with me in the future.
Being down and out is worth nothing, being proud is not forgetful, walking on thin ice.
Immediately teach the officials to sing the ceremony.
Zhang Yue and ten others turned around again and faced the worship hall.
After the roll call and the title conferment, the number one scholar led all the scholars to visit the palace to express their gratitude.
All the Jinshi followed Zhang Yue and other first-class Jinshis and climbed the steps to the hall again.
Zhang Yue was at the head, followed by Chen Mu and Wang Zhichen, one on the left and one on the right. The rest of the Jia scholars lined up in a flying geese formation, and the rest of the Jin scholars also ascended the steps according to the order of Jia.
Looking up from the Chongzheng Hall, I saw that all the gentlemen in green were ascending to the hall, and there were a lot of people.
When he arrived at the Chongzheng Hall, he stopped under a stone tablet engraved with a dragon and an Ao in the middle of the steps, and all the other Jinshi stopped.
Zhang Yue thought of his words congratulating Zhang Heng on "taking the lead". A few years ago, Zhang Heng also led a group of Jinshi to stand here, and now it was his turn.
The stone slabs are carved by skilled craftsmen to be lifelike, ingenious and extremely creative.
Zhang Yue saw a dragon and an ao on the stone slab first lurking in the waves and clouds, and then soaring up to the nine heavens, crossing the four seas, changing with time, just like the situation in a person's life.
A sudden wind blew up in the square. Zhang Yue rode the wind and stood alone in front of Aotou, his robes fluttering. The rest of the Jinshi were all standing on the steps according to their first rank. Everyone, please list the names of Jinshi at the end.
The long white marble steps in front of Chongzheng Hall are now full of people.
Under the guidance of the teaching officer, Zhang Yue led all the Jinshi to shout to the officials on the throne of Chongzheng Hall!
"Long live!"
"Long live!"
"Long live!"
All the Jinshi shouted three times in a row, resounding throughout the palace!
At this moment, the yellow bells in the Chongzheng Palace are ringing loudly, and the great Lu are playing a majestic chapter. Your Highness is a scholar in various subjects, and all the civil and military officials in the palace are bowing to the officials.
Zhao Zhen stood up from his throne and handed the list of Jinshi to Prime Minister Han Qi, who then solemnly handed it over to Hanlin scholar Wang Gui again and again.
Wang Gui walked out of Chongzheng Hall holding the list and shouted: "Give me the list!"
This list will be presented in front of the Supreme Master's case in the Imperial College, and will be posted at the Donghua Gate for three days for the people of Bianjing to watch. The people on the list will be famous in Donghua from then on.
After saying this, Wang Gui walked down the steps holding the Huang Bang in his hand, and the honor guard held up the Huangluo umbrella to cover the Huang Bang and walked down the steps step by step.
Wang Gui walked up to Zhang Yue and nodded. Zhang Yue immediately followed Wang Gui, sharing the yellow umbrella cover and going downstairs. Chen Mu, Wang Zhichen and others followed in turn.
The crowd in front of them divided into two sides like waves. They all clasped their fists towards the Huangbang. Wang Gui, who was holding the Huangbang in his hand, and Zhang Yue after him cupped his hands in congratulations. At this moment, the ceremony had just ended, and the faces of everyone were filled with joy from the bottom of their hearts.
When Zhang Yue came down the stairs, he saw countless eyes and various expressions. Familiar and unfamiliar faces passed by. He also held hands to congratulate each other. He also couldn't see the white-haired old Jinshi looking at Huang. Bang wept with joy, and the young and passionate man embraced others.
"Congratulations!"
Wang Anli raised his hands high above the crowd and shouted.
"Hefu, congratulations!"
Zhang Yue also returned the gift.
"Congratulations!" Liu Anshi saluted quietly in Chinese to the crowd.
"It's a weapon, congratulations!"
There are also Wang Juan and his classmates in Taixue, and countless other people. Most of them are meeting for the first time. Now that Zhang Yue has become the number one scholar, he is not afraid that others will not recognize him. As for others, they will only know him in the future. Get to know each other slowly.
"Congratulations, No. 1 Scholar!"
"Zhuangyuanlang, I am Zhu Rang, and I have met you once!"
"Zhuangyuanlang, I am..."
Zhang Yue could no longer greet him, so he could only raise his hands and say: "Congratulations together, congratulations together."
Congratulations to everyone on the honor of being admitted to the same examination.
Zhang Yue and Wang Guifang walked down the steps and walked out of the Zhonghe Gate. They saw all kinds of imperial ceremonial guards, sounding gongs and drums, waiting for them. As soon as they saw Huang Bang, they followed from the left and right.
But I saw countless big flags dancing and fluttering in the wind beside me.
With such a battle, Zhang Yue almost thought that he had just regained his homeland of the Han and Tang Dynasties that was lost to the Liao Kingdom.
The officials in the Chongzheng Hall watched Zhang Yue and other Jinshi leave and said to the ministers on the left and right: "This time I have gained many pillars of the court! It's so comforting, so comforting!"
"Congratulations to the official family, congratulations to the official family!" Han Qi led all the officials to congratulate him.
Zhao Zhen laughed twice, and then, with hundreds of officials watching him off, the emperor also drove back to the palace.
Walking from Zhonghe Gate to Xuande Gate, this place is still in the palace and cannot be played.
Under the bright sunshine, Zhang Yue looked at the white clouds adorning the eaves of the palace in the distance. Countless magpies were looking at the edge of the roof wall, and suddenly fluttered their wings and flew along with the ceremony...
Several of them flew in front of him. Zhang Yue smiled contentedly and stretched out his hand to let the magpies stop...
Ps1: Thank you to my old book friend Liu Shen Qingyu for becoming the sixteenth alliance leader in this book.
Ps2: It’s no fun to argue about right or wrong in the book review section. If there are any mistakes, it’s all my fault. Who doesn’t have the ability to write thousands of words a day? Being angry is harmful to the health, everyone is happy to read.
