253 Chapter 60
Xu Zhixing pleaded guilty frequently, and Emperor Zhou Yuan scolded him severely before venting his anger.

"Since you don't have this talent, go home and study, and suspend your job and go back to your residence." In the end, Emperor Zhou Yuan still cared about Xu Ge's relationship with his ruler and minister, so he only suspended Xu Zhixing from his post.

Xu Zhixing's face was ashen, but he finally saved his life. Seeing that Emperor Zhou Yuan was furious, he didn't dare to say more, so he could only accuse him and leave the palace.

As soon as the results of the palace examination came out, the top three were personally selected by Emperor Zhou Yuan, and the big list was posted in the busiest market in the capital.

The three top three in the palace examination also entered the palace to face the saint under the leadership of the eunuch.

It was a coincidence that Xu Zhixing, who was leaving the palace dejectedly, happened to meet Qi Yuan who was entering the palace.

When Xu Zhixing thought of the bloody scene of being scolded by Emperor Zhou Yuan, he couldn't help but glance at Qi Yuan.Transferred this account to Qi Yuan.

Qi Yuan glanced at Xu Zhixing inexplicably and then looked away.

Tan Che knew his own strength, so when he knew that he had won the second place, he was very pleasantly surprised. After all, there were so many talents that he couldn't help worrying.

This year, the top two of the top three are the children of poor families. Yang Qingsong is a bit embarrassed as a son of a noble family, so the three of them were very silent along the way.

Under the leadership of the eunuch, the three of them entered the hall to face the saint. Emperor Zhou Yuan saw the three kneeling in the hall and nodded. There were still such outstanding and intelligent talents in the Great Zhou Dynasty. When he got better, he didn't hesitate to praise and encourage the three of them.

After the face saint, the three of them walked out of the palace and began to parade through the streets.

Qi Yuan was very handsome in a No. [-] uniform, and even Tan Che, who was second in the list, was handsome and handsome.

"Congratulations to Qingyuan High School Champion." Tan Che rode away from the palace before smiling and congratulating.

"Huai'an High School ranked second, congratulations." Qi Yuan pulled the rein and replied with a smile.

Yang Qingsong looked at the two of them laughing and sighed inwardly, these two are so handsome and handsome, and they are quite valued by the Holy One, they are probably the most sought-after sons-in-law in Beijing.

Every year there is a big list in the palace examination, and there is no shortage of people who are under the list to catch their sons-in-law.

"Brother Yang is happy, I wonder if Brother Yang is married?"

Yang Qingsong came back to his senses when he heard the words, he never thought that Qi Yuan would talk to him, after all, the poor family and the gentry have not had a good relationship in recent years.

"Brother Liang was happy together, so he called me Mingfu, and I'm not married yet." After Yang Qingsong finished speaking, he saw Qi Yuan smiling meaningfully.

Did he say the wrong thing?
"It just so happens that Mingfu and Huai'an are not yet married, and the flowering branches will be ready soon." After Qi Yuan finished speaking, he pulled the rein and walked in front of the two.

"Qingyuan is remembering my grudge, thank you brother Mingfu for a while to help me block it." Tan Che said with a helpless smile, looking at Yang Qingsong sympathetically.

Yang Qingsong smiled to indicate that nothing happened, "Let's go slowly, Qingyuan alone can block all the flowers and branches."

Yang Qingsong grew up in the capital, so he naturally knew the enthusiasm of those women when the top three paraded the streets. The long street must be surrounded at this time, and it is impossible to leave the two of them and go first.

"Brother Mingfu, good advice." Tan Che held back a smile and looked at the surrounded Qi Yuan.

Yang Qingsong also smiled, "We'd better catch up quickly, otherwise Brother Qingyuan should have come to us when he left Long Street."

"It's reasonable." Tan Che followed Qi Yuan with an unkind smile.

"No. [-] and Tanhualang are also here."

"They are all talented!"

There were all kinds of compliments in the crowd, Qi Yuan had already been surrounded by throwing a lot of flowers, and those admiring eyes were getting used to him.

All the flower branches were thrown to Qi Yuan, but Tan Che and Yang Qingsong were much more relaxed.

"Qingyuan is unparalleled in talent, we are not as good as him." Tan Che seldom saw Qi Yuan in such a distressed state, looked at Qi Yuan and laughed.

Yang Qingsong laughed along with Tan Che. The three of them were all young talents, so it was even slower to walk around the street with this smile.

It wasn't until the setting sun slanted to the west that the three of them finished the street tour and rushed to the Qionglin Banquet.

The three of them went to the banquet with hairpin flowers, and their relationship was also a little closer because of the parade.This made everyone at the banquet a little confused.

"I heard that Qingyuan Policy Theory also mentioned the coastal area. I wonder if I can ask for advice?" Yang Qingsong had already heard about Qi Yuan's talent and name, and he was even more curious when he heard that Qi Yuan also talked about the coastal area.

Qi Yuan was holding a wine glass, "Ming Fu is polite, just thinking that there are many ships passing by along the coast, and there are envoys coming and going, so I thought maybe we can increase taxes and set up customs duties for management."

Yang Qingsong's eyes lit up when he heard the words, "Customs tax? Qingyuan might as well discuss it in detail."

Qi Yuan nodded, and the three of them gathered together from coastal customs duties to official supervision, and Yang Qingsong was greatly inspired to explain his idea of ​​coastal defense.

Even Qi Yuan has to admire, Yang Qingsong is also a rare talent to have such a foresight.

The three of them chatted at the Qionglin banquet, until the end of the banquet, Yang Qingsong still had something to say.

It was only after this conversation that he really realized that the talents of the two were indeed outstanding, and he also realized that it was because of a lot of luck that he was selected as the candidate.

Emperor Zhou Yuan obviously had the idea of ​​opening the coastal customs tax, and his idea fit the coastal issue, so it caught the eyes of the Holy Majesty.

"I benefited a lot from consulting today, and it's hard to find a confidant. Why don't I invite the two of you to get together some other day, and then we'll have a good time together." Far invites.

"Let's meet again some other day." Qi Yuan nodded and replied while helping Tan Che who was also drunk.

"Master, slow down." The servant helped Yang Qingsong into the carriage, and then Qi Yuan helped Tan Che go to the inn.

Now that the city gate is closed, they can only stay in the inn for one night.

As soon as the palace examination rankings were released, it was no surprise that the No. [-] rankings fell on the two of them. Such a result made the rich and powerful in the capital begin to re-evaluate the value of the two.

Liang Cai has already married a wife, and a bad wife will not go to court. It is impossible for those rich and powerful to let their prostitute daughters be concubines, but concubine daughters are not impossible.

Moreover, Tan Che, who was the second in the ranking, has not yet married a wife, and marriage is also a common method used by these people.

As for Tanhua Lang Yang Qingsong, as the son of the Duke's Mansion, he has a bright future and is a noble family, so the marriage is a matter of great importance.

Early the next morning, the three of them entered the hall to face the saint and waited for Emperor Zhou Yuan to give him an official.

"Following the fate of the heavens, the emperor said: Liang, the number one scholar, has both ability and political integrity, and has outstanding talents. He was promoted to the Imperial Academy to compile and write, and gave him a mansion.

The second place Tan Che, Tanhua Yang Qingsong was elected as the editor of the Imperial Academy, and was given a hundred taels of gold. "

The chief executive, Su Ning, announced the imperial decree, and the three of Qi Yuan knelt in the hall to receive the decree and thank them.

However, this decree is simply an obvious favor, Yang Qingsong, as the legitimate son of the Duke's Mansion, naturally has no shortage of money.

Then the one hundred taels of gold was obviously given to Tan Che, who was the second in the list, to buy a house. The man who had just won the number one was given a mansion. The Great Zhou Dynasty has only now set a precedent for Liang.

The Hanlin Academy was only a sixth-rank official, but Emperor Zhou Yuan directly gave him a mansion. This is to make Liang Cai a close minister.

Both Liang Cai and Tan Che lived in the suburbs of Beijing, and now that Emperor Zhou Yuan bestowed him with silver, it was indeed convenient for them to summon them.
