I slay demons and demons with poetry

Chapter 411
On February 29, at the end of this month, we will try to release the rankings.

The sky was high and cloudy that day, and the cold wind from the northwest was finally reduced. Although the weather was still cold, when the sun rose, the earth became even warmer.

Today, the people in Chang'an are also a bit more lively, many people have already left early, heading for the Gongyuan.

The announcement of the Wenchao Examination is different from the situation in the dynasties that Song Mu knew. Here, it is still the same as the court examination and the rural examination. When you gather in front of the Gongyuan, there will be officials who will roll their names and reveal the list for everyone.

There is only one list in the exam, but there is only one list, and the person who gets on the list must be a fellow Jinshi.

In addition, there will be a replacement list, but it will not be publicized, only famous posts will be issued.

The people who get the posts are some students who have brilliant articles but failed to reach the realm smoothly.

It's just that they can't enjoy the blessings of the stars, but they can get a chance to enter the tribute courtyard and be a tribute student for three years.

After all, it is not as easy as it used to be to raise a person to enter the realm of Jinshi. For some people, even if it is a step in the door, they cannot reach the realm without being touched by Wen Xing.

That's why the Tribute Academy has such methods to give these outstanding students a chance to familiarize themselves with the environment, and after three years, they will fight again.

And those who entered the red list of this meeting meant that they were already tribute scholars of this Wen Dynasty. They would go to the palace of the imperial city, take part in the palace examination, receive the blessings of the stars, and achieve the realm of Jinshi.

Therefore, the gold content of this list is extremely high, and everyone is an existence worthy of the common people's admiration.

In the guild hall on Jiangnan West Road, a group of students had already dressed up early, and now they put on their respective uniforms, looking radiant.

It's just that the eyes of all the candidates in this scene are constantly looking at the other side.

It was a room on the second floor, exactly Song Mu's room.

There is already a team sent by the Gongyuan outside the guild hall to support them. Today, these students in the Jiangnanxidao guild hall will choose one person as their leader.

In the past, such honors were held by Xie Yuan from various provincial roads.

There are two Jie Yuan references in Jiangnan West Road this year, but in their opinion, Song Mu, who was only a weak crown, holds more weight in their hearts.

Immediately, everyone heard the sound of the door opening, and looked up to the second floor at this moment, and saw the door of the room on the second floor open at this moment, and a tall figure walked out of it.

It was Song Mu.

Today's Song Mu is dressed in a purple satin overcoat with a crown belt, as well as his already tall figure and handsome face, making others immediately praise him as a good man.

Song Mu cupped his hands towards everyone and said with a smile.

"I've kept you waiting for so long, Brother Liu, I'm sorry."

Liu Kaidong next to him stepped forward, sized up Song Mu, and stretched out his hand towards the side with a smile. Song Mu also extended his hand towards the other party. The two walked out of the hall side by side, followed by each other.

Hundreds of students from Jiangnan West Road all filed out at this moment, and the street outside the guild hall suddenly became purple.

There were soldiers clearing the way in front, and these movers lined up in three rows, following Song Mu and Liu Kaidong, walking on the avenue.

When the surrounding people saw this team, and saw the small official walking in front holding up the signboard of Jiangnan West Road, they were all surprised at the moment and gave way one after another.

Many people came out to wait and see after hearing the news, and cast envious eyes on these students at this moment, many of them still did not forget to warn their descendants that they would also be such heroic students in the future.

Song Mu walked at the front of the team, and his good image attracted the attention of many people for a while, and many girls also felt narrowed when they saw Song Mu's face.

Liu Kaidong was walking beside Song Mu right now, but he felt a little depressed and uncomfortable. He felt that Song Mu's aura was very strong and stable, and he felt that his strength was deeper than his own.

Liu Kaidong also had some guesses in his mind. After all, Song Mu had induced three visions, and perhaps his strength was even better.

So now Liu Kaidong changed the subject and said to Song Mu.

"Brother Song, what do you think will be on the list this time?"

Song Mu let out a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said with a smile.

"Chang'an is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and there are countless talented students. I think this show will be very exciting."

Liu Kaidong also nodded, and said in agreement.

"That's right. After all, it's been Chongwen's 30th year. This year is extraordinary."

"However, Brother Song, from my point of view, Brother Song will definitely rank among the best this time, and it is not impossible for him to be the leader of the world."

Hearing this, Song Mu also looked at the other party puzzled this time, but he never thought Liu Kaidong smiled and sighed, and said to Song Mu.

"I'm from the south of the Yangtze River, and I don't have many reference students this time. If you really say it, Brother Song is outstanding."

Song Mu cupped his hands and said in a deep voice.

"Brother Liu, why did you say that? Brother Liu is also talented in literature. I am a talented scholar from Jiangnan and Xidao."

Although Song Mu said so, he also understood that this year Jiangnan West Road did not have much competitiveness. This time, there were more than 170 students for reference, but in the end, only a dozen people reached the level. Much less.

Liu Kaidong smiled silently, but immediately looked at Song Mu twice more.

After all, the person in front of him is a talented person selected by the Holy Book Jiezi.

As the team moved forward, they were naturally very ostentatious during this period. All the people around looked at Song Mu and the others, and knowing that today was going to be a test run, they immediately followed up.

Not long after, many people followed behind the group.

There are also teams coming here from all the avenues in Chang'an at this moment. Teams of Juzi wearing gorgeous purple Juzi uniforms walk to the Gongyuan Square, and they are also extraordinary.

But on the square in front of the north gate of the Gongyuan, it has been re-arranged at this moment. On the side of the gate of the Gongyuan, a tall golden wooden door has been erected this time. There are carps carved on it, painted with red paint, It means a fish jumping over the dragon's gate.

And under the wooden door, a huge red cloth was nailed to it.

It's just that there is nothing on the red cloth at the moment.

The difference between the announcement of the public examination and the others is that the officials in the tribute court will sing the list, and then the small officials will write on the red list with ink pens stained with silver powder.

Every time a name is pronounced, it is written on the red list.

And only at the end, on the top of this red list, the name of the number one in this test will be written with a golden ink pen.

It is also the name of Huiyuan.

And such scenes can be described as both ornamental and publicity.

It's just that when the wooden door is erected, it makes people feel extremely solemn. In addition, there are rows of wooden frames around it, waiting to post essays on them, which is endless, which is even more surprising.

And when it came to the palace examination, parading through the streets on horseback, wearing a red robe, it was an even more shocking scene.

Song Mu and the others stood on the square in front of the tribute courtyard and looked up. They were also full of sighs. They just felt that it was a blessing in life to be able to participate in such a grand scene.
