Chapter 184 Goodbye Fangzi

On the day of the palace examination, Xu Dong was so excited that he didn't fall asleep all night. As soon as the skylight was bright, he got up to prepare breakfast for Gu Yunji and the others, packing his luggage, and was busy.

"...Pull the cuffs again..." Xu Dong was still worried when he was serving several people to put on the tribute uniforms, and checked their appearance one by one, "Well, Mr. Cheng is fine. Third Master, you

Turn around and let me see it."

Gu Yunji was fiddled with by him like a doll, and he was a little amused and laughed: "Okay, it's OK. Everyone is wearing the same tribute uniform, and there is no difference in appearance. As long as it is clean and tidy, it will not be missed in front of the emperor.

Just do it, don't be busy."

Xu Dong looked dissatisfied: "This is not possible. Although they are all the same clothes, the effect on everyone is different. Fortunately, the two young masters and Mr. Cheng are tall and wearing this generous tribute.

The military uniforms are not loose. It is rare to have such a straight figure. I will naturally stroke you neatly. This kind of person looks energetic and leave a good impression on His Majesty."

Gu Yunxiao's servant Guanyan smiled and said, "Xu Dong is right. After all, it was an exam in front of the emperor, and his impression was part of the score. Although the palace examination was not eliminated, the gap between different rankings was huge.

"If the ranking is not high, you may be sent to a remote place to be a local official. You can only earn a year after year. How can a Hanlin Beijing official come to be noble? If you want to be high, you have to be high.

Working on every detail, such as this appearance, is the first thing to pay attention to."

Gu Yunji had no choice but to let them go, and they sorted it out until Xu Dong and Guanyan were satisfied and could no longer find any problems. Then the three of them left and told the meeting place in advance.

"Don't be crowded! Arrange in two rows in order of the rankings of the exams. The higher the rankings are in the top, the lower the rankings are in the bottom, the single number is on the right, and the double number is on the left!"

Outside the gate of the imperial city, three hundred tribute men gradually lined up in two rows under the command of officials of the Ministry of Rites. As soon as the hour arrived, they entered the palace to take the exam.

As soon as Gu Yunji stood in his position, he saw an acquaintance walking over him. His eyes narrowed slightly and his face suddenly became cold: "Fang Zigui."

Fang Zigui smiled on his face and greeted Gu Yunji and Cheng Yan calmly: "Junior Brother Gu, Junior Brother Cheng, long time no see."

Cheng Yan looked at him with caution: "What do you want to do?"

"What can I do? Junior Brother Gu is Huiyuan. He has to stand on the right and the second in the imperial examination. Naturally, he has to stand on his side - the first in the left and the first in the right and I just stand on my side.

It's just the position." Fang Zigui spread his hands and looked innocent, "Besides, even if we had an unhappy relationship, we were classmates who had studied at Luxi Academy together, and they would say hello

No?"

Gu Yunji glanced at him coldly, then turned his head and looked ahead, not wanting to talk to him.

Fang Zigui couldn't understand the alienation in his body, and he leaned closer and lowered his voice and said in his ear: "Why has it been almost three years, and you haven't married Xu Shuhua yet? Isn't it possible?

?”

"Or..." As he said that, he looked at Gu Yunji unscrupulously, with a playful expression on his face, "I'll help you once again like before?"

Gu Yunji's eyes darkened, and his aura suddenly became sharp. He gritted his teeth and said, "Fang Zigui, how dare you mention this? I'm sorry that the kick I kicked lightly back then and didn't kick you to death!"

Fang Zigui shrank back as if frightened: "Oh, are you angry? Just a joke, why are you still taking it seriously? Three years have passed and nothing else has been seen, but he is very good at temper."

Gu Yunji took a deep breath and suppressed his restlessness: "What do you want to do? Calculate the accounts with me? Or just to disgust me before the exam?"

Fang Zigui twitched in dissatisfaction: "Look at what you said, am I such a stingy and despicable person?"

Gu Yunji looked back at him with a deep look. Although he was speechless, his meaning was already very clear.

Seeing this, Fang Zigui raised his eyebrows and then sighed helplessly: "Hey, Junior Brother Gu, it's almost three years since the matter has passed, and I've let it go. From now on, let's put aside our past grudges and start getting along again.

?”

Gu Yunji was unmoved and said coldly: "Do you think I will believe it? I don't know what you look like?"

Fang Zigui said indifferently: "Forget it, whatever you think. Three years have passed, people should have improved a little, right? As for the things I did in the past, it seems ridiculous and naive now, otherwise I wouldn't harm you."

At the same time, I also put myself in. People always have to grow up, don’t you think?"

Gu Yunji narrowed his eyes and couldn't guess what he was thinking for a moment.

He would never believe that Fang Zigui wanted to reconcile his past grudges and make up with him, but he thought that the other party had said something well, that is, what Fang Zigui did in the past was indeed ridiculous and naive.

Now three years have passed, since Fang Zigui said that he has grown up, even if he wants to take revenge, his methods should be more clever, at least he will not be as clumsy as before. If he wants to slowly draw on it, Gu Yunji will have it.

The energy is slowly consumed with him.

Just as Gu Yunji was thinking, he saw the officials of the Ministry of Rites starting to lead the tribute scholars into the palace for the exam, so he put aside the chaotic thoughts in his mind and pulled his attention back to today's palace examination, raising his legs to follow the officials' footsteps.

The venue for the palace examination is outside the Fengtian Hall. The Honglu Temple, which is in charge of etiquette, has arranged the tables for the examination neatly yesterday. After everyone arrived, two rows stood on both sides, one left and one right, and then faced north - the Fengtian Hall

Wait quietly in the direction.

After the candidates entered the venue, all civil and military officials also began to enter the venue in an orderly manner. They arranged in front of the candidates and stood facing north.

Candidates, officials, guards, eunuchs... Thousands of people stood outside Fengtian Hall. Although their clothes and figures were different, they all stood silently without exception. On the huge open ground, they were so quiet that they could only hear the surroundings.

The sound of the wind makes the atmosphere more solemn and dignified.

Everyone arrived, and the official of the Honglu Temple who presided over Dianyi stood up and said loudly: "The time has come, please come to the palace!"

After two crisp whip sounds, Emperor Jingfeng walked into Fengtian Hall in a long dress with a grand and low voice of the horns, and then sat on the dragon throne in the hall.

Everyone knelt down and said in unison: "Long live my emperor!"

Emperor Jingfeng nodded slightly and said to Ning Fuhai beside him: "Let's start."

Ning Fuhai shouted outside with a sharp voice: "Your Majesty announces: The palace examination begins!"

The officials of the Honglu Temple outside responded and shouted: "The palace examination begins, all officials will leave! Except for the invigilator and the inspector, the other officials are not allowed to stay!"
