Chapter 69 The night gave me black eyes
In the Zhou Dynasty, the tribute students were divided into two categories. One was the township tribute students, which were all from the 360 prefectures directly under the jurisdiction of the Wuzhou court. In addition, there was also a tribute student in the Bian tribute. As the name suggests, these were from the 800 tribute states, Fusang, Silla and other countries to participate in the imperial examination.
The villagers were undoubtedly Tang people. But those tribute students were all very diverse. Silla and Fusang are more common, and there are occasionally Kucha and Gaochang, and there are even those who come from the Broken Leaf. Of course, among the tribute students, those Hu people who are extremely famous throughout the Tang Dynasty and come from the Persia Kingdom are definitely indispensable.
Therefore, although the scientific examinations in the Tang Dynasty were to select talents for the Tang Dynasty court, in terms of its scale and source of candidates, it was actually a super-large examination covering East and Central Asia.
Because of this, the torrent of tribute students that Tang Song has entered at this moment include not only the Tang people with black hair and black eyes, but also those Hu people with deep noses and high eyes, and even blond hair. They are vast and diverse.
If you want to talk about the same thing, the only thing is that no matter where these tribute students come from, what kind of skin color and hair color they have, they are all wearing a dress in Confucian clothes at this moment.
There was a Tang Dynasty, and every new Jinshi released the rankings was a grand event in the capital. Especially after the rankings, the gifts of banquets, titles, new Jinshi paraded on horseback, selected Tanhualang to visit famous gardens in the capital to visit famous flowers, and other actions were all the same as the city.
Seeing the tribute students gradually converging on the streets of North City, the knowledgeable people of the Gods knew that this was a new period of release. Not to mention those idle men, even many serious people who had nothing to do at hand had left their homes and walked out of the house to watch the fun.
Especially if you have children at home who are going to school, you won’t miss such a grand event. How can you teach your children to work hard to learn? This is the most vivid example.
The closer we are to the Gongyuan that was released, the more spectacular the torrent of tribute students gradually gathered on Chang Street. And the more people there are heard from both sides of Chang Street. When we arrived at the entrance of the Gongyuan, it was crowded with people and the bustling place was extremely lively.
Tang Song didn't go out too early, so he followed the torrent to the gate of the Gongyuan without waiting for a while. After hearing the three rumbling drums, the vermilion door of the Gongyuan, which was nearly meter tall and wide, slowly opened.
The noise in the torrent of scholars suddenly became smaller. The tribute students from all over the country tidied up their Confucian shirts, held their faces solemnly, and maintained a spontaneous formation and entered the tribute courtyard through the vermilion gate.
Bypassing the wide screen wall inside the gate of the Gongyuan with the picture of Confucius' lecture, the tribute students gathered in two directions on the left and right directions on the huge courtyard behind the screen wall.
Behind the courtyard is the gate, and in front is a row of open morgues. In the middle of the hall, wooden statues of the Supreme Master Confucius are usually enshrined in the room. On both sides and even behind the hall are the public office rooms of the gongyuan. Examinations are organized and the test papers are all completed in these office rooms.
As for the two sides of the huge courtyard, there are naturally rows of strictly symmetrical rows, divided into many small examination rooms, also called examination room. This name is naturally a complaint that the examination room is too small.
In short, the entire tribute courtyard gives people the feeling of being big, and the second is that it is solemn and humble. The environment is like this, coupled with the psychological effect of the scholars, the huge courtyard where thousands of tribute students gathered naturally became silent, which formed a sharp contrast with the lively and noisy on the street when they came just now.
Tang Song also silently did not speak, but was stimulated by the surrounding environment and people, his mood gradually became nervous.
When the time comes, the examiner comes out and offers three animals to worship Confucius. The tribute students celebrating the far away. I won’t talk about these rituals. In short, after a series of cumbersome but really creating a solemn atmosphere, as the large notice boards covered with bright yellow brocade were carried out, the final result of this imperial examination is finally revealed.
Although the people did not prohibit the people from wearing yellow in the Tang Dynasty, the bright yellow could only be used by the royal family and no one could be overwhelmed. These pieces of bright yellow brocade covered with the notice board represent the majesty of the emperor. The tribute students were paying attention to this and their breath was a little heavier.
When the bright yellow brocade was finally taken off, although there were many minor officials in the tribute court maintaining order, the courtyard was still in chaos.
At this time, not many scholars could still maintain their elegant demeanor. Although they were not as resistant to kicking their legs, they could squeeze forward.
Tang Song was worried about the willow eyebrows and the result, so he did not consciously avoid the side like those scholars who could still be cautious at this time, but rushed to the list along the crowd.
In early spring, February is the time when the spring is chilly. Even so, Tang Song was already sweating profusely when he arrived at the list.
But at this time, he didn't bother to take out a sweat towel to wipe it, and looked up at the Jinshi exam list.
During the reign of Wu Zetian, there was no title of "top scholar" in the imperial examinations. The first place in the Jinshi exam was called "top scholar"
A head-shaped...not him
The second place...it's not him either
Third place
Fourth place
Fifth place
...
...
There are quite a lot of admissions for the imperial examination and Jinshi. Although there are not enough thirty people, they are not as good as the most perverted one, only seventeen people were admitted.
This time, the imperial examination and Jinshi were selected to receive 27 tribute students. In this list of twenty-seven people that will soon spread throughout the world... there is no name for Tang Song, Xiangzhou.
There is not even a single surname Tang!
Letting the sweat beads flow on his forehead, Tang Song carefully looked at the list word by word, from the head to the last place, no!
Then I looked backwards from the last one and saw the shaped head.
Still not!
After reading the first time, Tang Song was a little nervous first, but then he felt cold.
After Liu Mei knew that she had been recruited, she forced Huanyan to say that she smiled without warning and came to Tang Song's mind without reason.
………………………………………
"I heard that gods are all very beautiful. If anyone in Xiangzhou has been to the capital, he will be full of surprises when he comes back, which is so enviable."
"Yes, Gods are all very beautiful. Especially when the peony flowers bloom in April every year, they are full of beautiful cities."
"That's great, I like flowers."
"Um"
"I heard that the palace is the most magnificent place in the world, right?"
"The emperor lives in the place, of course, the most beautiful. Especially this palace in Luoyang, which was just repaired when the Holy Emperor ascended the throne two years ago. It has carved beams, painted buildings, pavilions, towers and pavilions, and pavilions that are unparalleled in the world."
"I can go to such a lively place, live in such a good house, and learn music, music, singing and dancing with famous teachers in the palace. It's great! Hello, you should be happy for me."
"Good... Of course I'm happy for you"
...
...
"Hey, I heard that scholars can enter the palace city to be officials after passing the Jinshi exam, right?"
"Yes"
"Then I'll wait for you in the palace of Shendu, waiting to dance the "Tuozhi" dance for you."
"good"
Hearing this, willow eyebrows smiled brightly.
At that time, the sunlight just after the rain shone on her bright face, making this bright smile full of freshness and brightness.
After knowing that he was recruited, Liu Mei did not show any sadness or sadness in front of Tang Song from beginning to end.
………………………………………
Memories came like a tide, and finally frozen in Liu Mei’s brilliant smile with infinite complex emotions.
At this moment, all Tang Song's panic and coldness came from this, and it came from Liu Mei's forced smile.
This is an agreement!
A promise to meet in the palace!
Liu Mei would rather endure the stinging pain of her heart alone than make him feel a little sad and sad. This affection contained in the promise is so deep that Tang Song could bear the promise? How could he bear it?
A fifteen-year-old girl who has never been to Xiangzhou City has been now living in the most magnificent but ruthless and cold palace in the world, thinking about him, waiting for him, looking forward to him, what kind of trust is so heavy that it has put the whole life on?
Facing Liu Mei’s trust in life, how could Tang Song betray the promise as a man? How could he bear it?
There are too many things in this agreement, not only deep feelings as deep as the sea, but also heavy trust as the mountain, but also a responsibility that a man must bear, which is the responsibility that he must straighten his back even if he wants to break through the wall and break the ribs.
No responsibility, no man!
Therefore, this is an agreement that Tang Song must not fail!
Faced with an agreement that must not be defeated... he is going to be defeated!
The first time I watched it, I was panicked and cold all over.
When these instinctive disordered emotions faded after these disappointments were overwhelmed, Tang Song read the list article for the second time, all his emotions burned into anger.
Especially when he saw the list of Jin Zongqing and Huang Jilai in Xiangzhou, who were listed as the list of Jin Zongqing and Huang Jilai, who were awarded the list of law, his anger burned to the point where he could no longer be curbed.
If he had known that the imperial examinations of the Tang Dynasty were so dark, he would have responded, but he did not expect that the doctor Yue would be timid at such a critical moment! The five thousand tickets that congratulated the New Year when he visited on the 9th day of the New Year were actually fed to the dog!
This is the main testimonial!
I knew that the imperial examinations of the Tang Dynasty were so dark, but he had God's blessing, but I really didn't expect that these examiners would even disdain the imperial examination poems that had the highest peak in the Tang Dynasty in 300 years. They could really do this! They really dared to do this!
Is this a fucking poem?
I had known that the imperial examinations in the Tang Dynasty were so dark, but I really didn't expect that it would be so dark that there was no trace of sky light. The pinnacle work was abandoned like a piece of shoes. Jin Zongqing and Huang Jilai, two playboys who had not touched books for more than half a year, were able to go to high school!
Is there any fucking reason for this?
How to endure it after you can’t bear it anymore?
Since the sky is completely dark, let's tear the day apart!
