Chapter 2150 Number One Scholar and Marriage Grant3

Yingge Lao saw what Emperor Jingyuan was thinking and said: "Da Chu now needs people with real abilities. Huang Youchi is good, and he can bear the name of Erjia Chuanlu."

This ranking was given out of favor with Emperor Jingyuan.

Emperor Jingyuan didn't say anything and continued to read the paper.

Half an hour later, the corresponding elder and others said: "Each of you will comment on a list of the top ten in the palace examination and give it to me."

"Yes." Mr. Yingge and the others agreed. Each took up a pen and wrote down the top ten names in the palace examination that he preferred, and the chief **** presented them to Emperor Jingyuan.

Unsurprisingly, the number one winner is still the battle between Gu Jinan and Zong Zhengyi.

"Three people proposed Gu Jin'an as the number one scholar, and only two people proposed Zong Zhengyi. It seems that Gu Jin'an is better." Emperor Jingyuan also preferred Gu Jin'an as the number one scholar, but Ouyang Zhang hesitated for a moment and suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I have something to say. Play."

Emperor Jingyuan frowned: "What's the matter?"

Since when did Ouyang Zhang become so blind that he interrupted him at this juncture?

"It's a private matter." Ouyang Zhang knelt down and said: "My second uncle Ouyang Hu has promised his third granddaughter to Gu Jin'an, and they will get engaged after Gu Jin'an returns from high school... I should avoid suspicion and should not nominate Gu Jin'an as the number one scholar. Your Majesty." Condemn."

It is no secret that Ouyang Hu values Gu Jinan. With his temper, he will not dislike the poor and love the rich. However, the Ouyang family is a wealthy family after all. If Gu Jinan becomes the grandson-in-law of the Ouyang family, Emperor Jingyuan will be a little worried. .

Moreover, he had long wanted to reuse Gu Jinan, so he had made arrangements for Gu Jinan's marriage. Now that Ouyang Zhang suddenly revealed that the two families were going to get engaged, Emperor Jingyuan was a little slapped in the face and very unhappy.

Bang, Emperor Jingyuan slammed the table angrily and snorted: "As one of the examiners, if you conceal your relationship with the examinee, you will be fined for one year!"

After hearing this, Ouyang Zhang felt relieved and immediately thanked him: "I accept the punishment. Thank you for your kindness."

He does not live on his salary at all, but His Majesty only fines him a salary and has no other punishments. This is indeed a mercy.

"Now it's two to two, Gu Jinan and Zong Zhengyi are tied..." Emperor Jingyuan thought for a while and said, "I want to meet these three people and call them in."

These three people are Zong Zhengyi, Huang Youchi, and Gu Jinan.

"Yes." The chief **** immediately went to do it, and soon called Zong Zhengyi in.

Lao Yingge and the others had already exited the side hall and were waiting in the main hall.

"Student, please pay homage to Your Majesty." Zong Zhengyi is the noble son of a wealthy family. His words and deeds are all rigorous and smooth. Emperor Jingyuan was very unhappy and did not like him as the number one scholar, so he casually asked a few questions. After a few words, he was let out.

Then Huang Youchi came in. He took about a quarter of an hour longer to admonish than Zong Zhengyi, which made Zong Zhengyi very dissatisfied... He was guarding against Gu Jinan every day, but he didn't expect Huang Youchi to come out halfway. What a miscalculation. !

Gu Jinan was the last one to go in. After making a grand ceremony, he heard Emperor Jingyuan say: "I have a daughter who is sixteen years old and is not yet married. I want to make you my son-in-law. Are you willing?"

He also said: "If you two get married, I will decree to make her a princess instead of a princess, and your career will not be hindered."

Gu Jinan was caught off guard when he heard this. He did not expect that Emperor Jingyuan wanted to recruit him as his son-in-law. However, he said: "Your Majesty, forgive me. I already have someone I like, so I don't dare to accept such a great favor!"

Emperor Jingyuan frowned. He didn't expect Gu Jinan to refuse so quickly, and he felt very unhappy: "Do you know that I prefer you to be the number one scholar in this subject, but if you refuse me, it will be rebellion and a death penalty. I miss Qin and Gu. The family may not kill you because of your merits to the court, but your reputation and career will be destroyed by this!"

He added: "Whether you want the person you like or want fame and a career, you have to choose."

After being silent for a while, Gu Jinan suddenly raised his head, looked at Emperor Jingyuan, his eyes were red, and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, the student will choose the person of his choice."

Emperor Jingyuan was shocked and angry: "Do you know what you are talking about? You are a peasant, you have gone through a lot of hardships to come to Jinluan Palace, and you are willing to give up like this? Is it worth it for a woman?!"

Gu Jinan smiled and nodded: "It's worth it. Although the student has the heart to serve the court, he is not willing to give up the people he cares about for fame and wealth... The student has escaped from famine and has seen many life and death partings. He knows that if you can meet the person you like, you can still be there." Having the opportunity to be married to her is a great blessing in life. Such a great blessing may only happen once in a lifetime, and if you give up, it will be gone, so students are unwilling to give up. Students want real things more than fame and fortune. people."

As for whether you are willing to give in? Of course you are not willing to give in, but this is not a dead end. After the students return to their hometowns, they can still do things for the villagers and benefit the people.

After hearing this, Emperor Jingyuan was shocked... A farmer in his twenties could actually say such words. If his adult sons could be as transparent as Gu Jinan, he wouldn't look down on them so much. !

Thinking of his son, Emperor Jingyuan also thought of Brother Yuan.

If Brother Yuan hadn't died, he would have taught him to be like Gu Jinan, but it's a pity...

"Your Majesty?" Seeing Emperor Jing Yuan suddenly covering his face and feeling uncomfortable, Gu Jinan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is feeling unwell, please bear with me, and the student will call the chief **** immediately."

After hearing this, Emperor Jingyuan thought of Brother Yuan again. When he was sick in the past, the little Brother Yuan was also very anxious and ran to call the imperial doctor for him.

But Gu Jinan is not Brother Yuan. He and the Queens Brother Yuan are already dead!

Emperor Jingyuan suddenly became very angry and shouted: "Get out!"

Gu Jinan was stunned for a moment, and without waiting much longer, he said yes, bowed and left the side hall.

Emperor Jingyuan's voice was loud. Mr. Yingge and the others heard it and felt a little gloating... Gu Jinan angered Emperor Jingyuan, so the position of the number one scholar was definitely not guaranteed.

Even the meritorious service may be cut off. After all, Emperor Jingyuan was a madman, and he could do it by cutting off a Huiyuan meritorious title.

Unfortunately, their hopes were dashed.

More than a quarter of an hour later, Emperor Jingyuan recovered, decided the rankings in the palace examination, and asked Ouyang Zhang of the Ministry of Rites to read them out.

The Baishan Mansion of Jianghuai and Hua Qianshan, the 411th place in the palace examination, will be awarded the top three and the same Jinshi!

Hua Qianshan was very happy. Your Majesty did not detract from his honors. He became a Jinshi. Although he was a fellow Jinshi, the imperial examination was too difficult. With his fame, he could become an official!

"Cao Hongguang of Wanning Prefecture in the Central Plains, ranked 400th in the imperial examination, and was awarded the title of Third Grade Scholar and Jinshi!"

Shen Mingfang of Jinling Prefecture in the south of the Yangtze River, ranked 300th in the palace examination, and was awarded the title of Top Three Scholars!

Gu Dexing from Anfu in the Jianghuai River, ranked 167th in the palace examination, and was awarded the second grade Jinshi!

In this department, there are many scholars. As long as they are in the top two hundred, they can be given a Jinshi background, and they do not need to be a fellow Jinshi.

Gu Dexing's eyes widened when he heard this. He ranked higher in the Imperial Examination than in the General Examination, and he became a serious Jinshi!

Qi Kangming from Jianghuaihe Anfu, ranked tenth in the imperial examination, and was awarded the second grade Jinshi!

Qi Kangmings ranking has also risen.

Zong Zhengyi, the Imperial Academy in Beijing, ranked ninth in the imperial examination and was awarded the title of Jinshi!

What?

Zong Zhengyi raised his head in shock, thinking that he heard wrongly... Ninth in the palace examination. How could he, who was the top scholar, only get ninth in the palace examination? !

Zong Zhengyi was very angry. He clenched his fists and endured it. He finally did not lose his composure on the spot, but he refused to accept it. Why did he only pass ninth in the imperial examination?

What about Gu Jinan, where did he get in the exam?

Could it be that he was deprived of his fame? !

But he thought too much, Gu Jinans ranking was better than his.

Gu Jinan from Jianghuai River An Mansion, ranked third in the imperial examination, and was appointed by His Majesty to be the Hualang of Jinke!
