Chapter 82: Happiness, Anger, Sadness

May 19th, the day of the list.

The shopkeeper was very attentive and ordered the waiter to decorate the lights early, and the two gongs and drums were ready to go. The sign of Tongfu Hotel was replaced with four characters written by Jiang Anyi, and the black background gold characters were particularly festive.

Jiang Anyi and his friends were going to see the list, but they were stopped by the shopkeeper and said with a smile: "There is no reason why a noble man goes to see the list in person. I have sent the waiter to see the list. I will wait patiently for the good news."

After winning the tribute, he was sure of the first place. The three of them thought about this, so they waited in the yard. Just after the hour of the year, the sound of firecrackers and gongs came one after another, which made people feel itchy. The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Masters, the later the gongs and drums, the better. The rules for the ranking of the palace examination should be filled in forward."

As time goes by, the joy on the three of them becomes stronger and stronger, which means they are getting higher and higher.

The waiter ran back and panted and smiled, "Congratulations to Mr. Fan, the 47th place in the second grade of high school."

Mr. Fan stood up in surprise, asked several times, then sat back on the chair, chanted Buddha's name, and laughed, "But forget about the thought."

Seeing Fan Shiben smiling happily, Jiang Anyi and Zhang Zhicheng both came forward to congratulate him. Zhang Yuzhu took out the prepared small silver ingots and stuffed them to the waiter, and gave him a blank look and said, "You are lucky. It would be nice to reward you with a few copper coins according to my girl."

The waiter said with a bitter face: "Auntie, you have a lot of adults. When you were in a hotel, there was indeed no room. You can let the villain go."

Everyone was laughing, firecrackers were lit outside the store, and the drum team started to beat hard. A group of idle people were noisy and pleasing money in front of the door. Zhang Yuzhu was prepared, so she brought a dustpan with Shitou, which was filled with yellow copper coins. The waiter wanted to take the help, but the little girl glared and said, "I won't stuff it into her pocket yet. I will send the wedding money in person, Shitou will follow me."

At this time, two minor officials from the Ministry of Rites came to the store wearing big red wedding uniforms, holding big red gold wedding invitations, and shouted loudly: "Congratulations to Mr. Fan, Mr. Fan, for his 47th place in the second-level high school entrance examination in the high school."

Fan Shiben received the wedding invitation excitedly, and a line of big words was written on it: Gong Ke, Mr. Fan, was the 47th Jinshi in the second grade of the high school entrance examination in the high school. "Okay, okay", Fan Shiben was a little out of his composure. Jiang Anyi asked two officials to sit down and have tea, and gave each red envelope prepared in advance one and ten taels of silver notes.

Before the tea was finished, a group of people broke into the outside and shouted noisily: "Who is Mr. Zhang? I respect Mr. Zhang for being the first to go to the flower."

Tanhualang, third place in the first place, Zhang Zhicheng was a little disappointed, turned to ecstasy, hugged the girl beside him and turned around, shouting: "Yuzhu, I've been third in the exam, and it's Tanhualang. If my parents are still here, I don't know how happy they should be."

As he was talking, the brother and sister hugged their heads and cried bitterly. Jiang Anyi was both sad and happy for the brother and sister. The painful days passed forever, and for Zhang Zhicheng and his sister, the future would be full of happiness.

The Ministry of Rites came to report the good news and was the head of Qian. When he saw Jiang Anyi and Zhang Zhicheng, he smiled and said, "The top scholar in the current academic year, Tanhualang and Fan Jinshi are good friends, and they live together. This is a story about the Shilin. Jiang Zhuangyuan, you are the first top scholar in the three-yuan period since the founding of the Great Zheng country. The future is limitless. If you have the chance in the future, you can help me."

Looking at Sa Jinxitie, Jiang Anyi thought of his mother, and his hands that were pricked by bamboo, and his father who died early, couldn't help but shed tears.

Jiang Anyi's name blew through the streets and alleys of the Yongchang imperial capital like a whirlwind, spreading rapidly around along the official road. It won't take long for the entire Dazheng country to talk about this 18-year-old top scholar. Jiang Cixian, Jiang Cixian, became the dream lover of countless deep girls and the rich son-in-law in the eyes of countless high-ranking officials.

Life is full of joy. There are a large banquet in Tongfu Hotel, filled with people coming to congratulate. Yu Qinghuan and Yu Qingle are here, Lin Yizhen, Liu Yushan and Ju Mingde are here, and many new friends are here, which is destined to be a big drunk tonight.

Jiang Anyi was drunk, drunk in joy, drunk in pleasure, drunk in longing. Apart from mother and family, the person Jiang Anyi wanted to see the most was Xinfei. The good news came, but the beauty was not by her side.

"Xinfei, Xinfei", Jiang Anyi murmured to himself. Shi Tou carefully soaked the towel in cold water, wrung it dry, and applied it to Jiang Anyi's hot face. Seeing Jiang Anyi calm down a little, Shi Tou held his chin, thinking about it carefully, isn't Miss Xinfei also in the capital? Why don't you come to see Mr. Jiang? It seems that Mr. Jiang missed her very much, just like he sometimes dreamed of his parents. How are Sister Sifeng and the others doing? I don't know when I will see them again. Shi Tou thought about it and sighed a little.

On May 20th, the Golden Palace sang its title. Jiang Anyi felt much more at ease when he stepped into Hanyuan Hall for the second time. Ten years of hard work were exchanged for the emperor. This is the greatest honor for scholars. To shine the family and ancestors, Guangda’s door lintel is to bow down in the Golden Palace, and the mountain shouts "Long Live".

The drums and music came from afar, and everyone knew that the emperor was coming. Jiang Anyi knelt in front, he was the top scholar, and today's ceremony was led by everyone to bow. When the emperor sat down, a eunuch next to him signaled him. Jiang Anyi hurriedly shouted: "Jiang Anyi, a new Jinshi (everyone called his own name) met my emperor, wishing me long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long." These were all practiced in advance, and more than 300 people spoke in unison, neatly and loudly, and the voices resounded throughout the Hanyuan Hall, making a "buzzing" echo.

Shi Shouzhen looked at His Highness with black hair and black hair, which was different from the snow-white ones he saw during the dynasty. The entire hall was filled with vitality, which made people excited. Shi Shouzhen smiled with satisfaction. This was the court I wanted. Shi Shouzhen seemed to have seen a court that was thunderous and decisive in the future.

The first and second grade were awarded the title, three Jinshis were awarded the title, seventy-two Jinshis, and two hundred and forty-one Jinshis. As the top scholar, Jiang Anyi delivered a thank-you poem on behalf of the Jinshis of Jiangbang, "The first voice in the palace was passed on, and thousands of people were shocked in front of the palace. His name was on the Dragon and Tiger Golden List, and he was in the smoke and sky, and the white jade capital."

Shi Shouzhen looked at Jiang Anyi who was so vigorous and liked it very much, and said, "Jiang Anyi, you are the Sanyuan and the first person I have been close to. In the future, you will be loyal to the king's affairs and abide by the minister's way, so that I can live up to my wishes."

Jiang Anyi was surging and kowtowed on the ground and said, "I dare not use the power of a dog or a horse to repay the holy grace."

Immediately afterwards, I was given a new Jinshi green robe, boots and scepter, which means that everyone is already an official. After only two days, they can take office at the South Court of the Ministry of Rites to receive the responsibilities. They praised the ceremony, and the people bowed down, made music, paid four salutes, and stood flat. The emperor gave wine, and the Ministry of Rites introduced the new Jinshi to thank him. The drums and music outside the hall started, and the umbrella cover ceremony was ready to welcome the Jinshi to parade.

There are thousands of people watching the top scorer in the alleys, and some noble residences even built high color sheds. The petite lady shyly and timidly watch the top scorer. Many people took this opportunity to see young people with good looks to see if they could be recruited as son-in-law. Jiang Anyi wore a green robe and wore red color, and rode on a tall horse. The four great joys in life are the most popular ones when he was nominated for the Golden List. As the top scorer, the scenery covered Wei Youcheng and Zhang Zhicheng behind him, not to mention the more than 300 people behind him.

Drum music surrounds Yongchang City, and many official residences, inns and hotels were prepared with firecrackers. The parades passed by, firecrackers were sounding loudly. Some people who had won the Jinshi gave out happy money. Many idle people followed the team forward, laughing and laughing along the way.

When the drum music in front of Hanyuan Palace sounded, Princess Anshou couldn't sit still and quickly changed into men's clothing, trying to sneak out of the palace to watch the fun. Unexpectedly, Prince Shi Fang rushed in, grabbed her sister and wanted to go out with her. Although Anshou was bold, she did not dare to take the prince out of the palace. Just as she was threatening to induce her, the queen walked in. Princess Anshou had to pout and change back to women's clothing, and honestly followed her mother to learn to be popular with her daughter.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Wei Yishen returned to the East Academy from the Political Affairs Hall early. The sound of firecrackers in front of the mansion came faintly, and there must be laughter and joy in the inner house at this moment. Cheng'er's second-class high school appearance was a little regretful, but it was quite satisfactory.

Yesterday, Wei Yishen asked the emperor for Princess Shang Anshou for Wei Youcheng. He thought he was very confident, but the emperor refused to say it in two years. What is the meaning of the emperor's words? I really think Anshou is still young or intends to refuse. Could it be that the emperor is dissatisfied with my recent performance?

Wei Yishen frowned unconsciously. He had fully supported Qingzhan Tianmu's matter, but it had a single impact on his whole body. This matter was too much to make a decision. Liu Xinming had already turned against him, and the other families could not reach an agreement, let alone the royal family and the royal family of Wang. It was difficult.

The feeling of fatigue surged up, and Wei Yishen felt dizzy. He was old and had lacked energy in the past few years, and he was really old. As soon as this thought arose in his heart, Wei Yishen immediately sat up. He could not withdraw from the position. His descendants were short of successors. Cheng'er was still young. He must support him for a few more years. He would do a good job in Qingzhai and marry Princess Anshou for Cheng'er. At that time, Cheng'er had already gained a foothold and would not be too late to support him.

Thinking of this, Wei Yishen stood up and took big steps towards the Political Affairs Hall.

Shujing Palace, the residence of Huang, the Empress of Concubine Shu. Concubine Huang was born in the Huang family in Guanyang. She has a gentle personality and likes to study. She respects the emperor as a guest. She has a son who is five years old.

It was sunny today, and a group of little eunuchs were busy taking out the books in the palace and slitting them out. Xiao Fuzi sat on the stool, surrounded by two little eunuchs, one fanning him and the other holding his shoulders for him. Who made him the most proud godson of Eunuch Tang?

The other godson of the Tang Dynasty, Xiao Xizi, was so busy that he was sweating profusely. He had transferred 5,000 taels of silver to Tang Wenzhong. Tang Wenzhong ignored Zhang Bojin and allowed Xiao Fuzi to do heavy work. Xiao Xizi (Zhang Bojin) was heartbroken and had nowhere to tell anyone.

Seeing Xiao Xizi be timid under his scolding, Xiao Fuzi couldn't express his joy. At that time, this boy scared him like a wolf, but now he is not as good as a skinny dog. Seeing Xiao Xizi walking past him with a bundle of books with difficulty, Xiao Fuzi called him and said, "I heard that you have read books too?"

Xiao Xizi was angry and wished she could strangle Xiao Fuzi to death. She could only answer with a smile on her face: "I know a few words."

"The top scorer in the current academic year is Jiang Anyi from Dezhou. I wonder if you recognize him?" Xiao Fuzi understood that Zhang Bojin was from Dezhou and had studied at Zechang Academy. It is said that he was a classmate of the top scorer, and deliberately sprinkled salt on the wound.

Zhang Bojin gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words, "I don't know you, if you're fine, the younger one will have to move books."

"Bold, Eunuch Fu hasn't finished speaking yet, why are you anxious?" Before Xiao Fuzi could speak, the two little eunuchs beside him roared first with their power.
