Chapter 241: Imperial Examination (2)
Chapter 241 Imperial Examination (2)
After daybreak, the scholars headed towards the eastern suburbs of the capital in an orderly manner under the arrangement of Mr. Ye.
It is said to be the eastern suburbs, but in fact it is still in the capital. There is a large forest in that place, covering a vast area. It was originally planned to build a royal manor. But after Jun Li took possession of this body, he naturally waved his bare hand and refused to allow it to be built.
Joke, not to mention how much manpower and material resources are required to build such a large manor, how can such a vast place that can be called a small forest be destroyed.
Besides, it is estimated that half of the palaces in the imperial palace are not fully occupied. What is the purpose of building Naoshizi’s manor...
So Junli disregarded the obstruction of some ministers in the court, and directly decided: not to build the Royal Manor!
The royal manor is actually a place for people to have fun. There is no entertainment for the ancients. They can only rely on building gorgeous palaces, summer resorts and manors. .
Half an hour later, the mighty team arrived at the eastern outskirts of the capital, followed by some spectators and vendors carrying goods.
When I came to the eastern suburbs, the goal was a piece of fresh green, and there was a long fence with an unknown end.
Outside the fence, all guards with long knives at their waists stood in a long row, enclosing the circle formed by the fence, absolutely not even a fly could fly in.
Around the fence, there are a total of ten gates. The guards there are four to five times the guards in other places. We are not afraid that someone will dare to make trouble. Of course, no one will dare.
A long table is placed in front of the ten doors, and there are ten chairs beside the table, and a cup of tea is placed in front of each chair.
Master Ye did not get off his horse, but said loudly, "Ten people in groups, go to each door, and hand over the certificates issued by your yamen to the inspectors. If the inspectors think there is no problem, you can go in."
After the words fell, a hundred inspectors came out from the side and sat in their respective positions.
The scholars also lined up in a row of ten and walked towards the ten gates in an orderly manner.
Handing in their personal certificates, under the stares of countless guards, the scholars walked into the fence calmly, nervously, fearfully, tremblingly, or excitedly.
Tens of thousands of people, it took a full three hours, or six hours, just to check the applicant's certificate.
After everything was checked, it was almost noon.
Because the scientific research has not started yet, Junli and others have not yet arrived.
Only Master Ye and Sima Lian presided over the overall situation.
Regarding the fact that it was already noon after all the inspections, Mr. Ye smiled, and there was no surprise. But Sima Lian was different, he frowned and said, "Master Ye, it's almost noon now, is it time for scientific research?"
Master Ye glanced at the scholars who had already sat down, and shook his head slightly, "Of course not now, let them rest for a while and eat something, the left and right are under the shade of the trees, and the wind is blowing, so it won't be too hot .”
Hearing this, Sima Lian nodded, and ordered an inspector at the side to let her pass on the words.
Though the words reached the ears of the scholars in this way, whoever was present did not eat the food for lunch in a hurry, and then recalled all the knowledge he had learned.
Master Ye and Sima Lian were also sitting on chairs under a tree, having a fairly sumptuous lunch.
Of course, the place where the two ate was far away from the scholars. It was on the grass covered by trees. Behind the two of them, more than a hundred inspectors were eating lunch. After these inspectors finished eating, they would exchange places with more than a hundred other inspectors who were observing the scholars, and let the other hundred inspectors come over for dinner.
Master Ye picked up a piece of chicken and put it in his mouth, clicked his tongue a few times, "This chicken tastes good."
Sima Lian glanced at her, then lowered his head and continued to eat.
Seeing this, Master Ye bared his teeth and said with a grin, "Master Sima, you have a good mouth."
Hearing this, Sima Lian glanced at her indifferently, and lowered his head to pick up the chicken on the plate in front of him.
Seeing this, Master Ye yelled, "Master Sima, no matter how good your teeth are, you should not eat too much chicken." As he spoke, he brought the plate of chicken in front of him, without feeling at all that his behavior Is there anything wrong with respect to the elderly.
Looking at the chicken on the plate in front of him, Mr. Ye swallowed his saliva. This is pheasant chicken. This time, the eastern suburbs were caught by the way. The quantity is not much, but the meat is very delicious and tender, and it is better than the chickens raised by ordinary people in the capital. I don't know how many times.
Picking up the chopsticks, he picked up the chicken on the plate in front of him.
"Ow" Master Ye suddenly cried out in ecstasy, attracting many inspectors behind him.
Master Ye quickly stopped talking, and smiled kindly at the inspectors, "It's all right, keep eating."
Hearing this, all the inspectors looked at each other, and they all buried their heads and continued to eat.
Seeing that no one was looking here, Master Ye turned his head and glared at Sima Lian angrily, pointed to a red mark on his right wrist, gritted his teeth and said, "Master Sima, what do you mean?" Knocking her with the chopsticks, don't you know that her hands can go up the hall, go down the kitchen, can be literary and military, and can even touch beautiful men...
If it is broken and disabled, which beautiful man would still have **** with her, so it is possible that this old thing will not be able to do it for her in the future?
Sima Lian ignored her, but picked up the plate of chicken in front of her, and put it in his mouth very calmly.
"Hey, hey, don't finish eating, save some for me." Sima Lian ate very fast, Master Ye was stunned, and half of a plate of chicken went into her stomach.
Taking back the remaining chicken from Sima Lian, Master Ye picked up the chopsticks and ate it quickly.
Hmph, she finished eating, let this old thing fight her!
Seeing this, Sima Lian glanced at her indifferently with his cloudy but shining old eyes, and lowered his head to eat the food in the bowl.
Seeing this, Master Ye hummed a little song as if triumphant, and ate the chicken on the plate in a leisurely manner.
Suddenly, a trembling hand was placed on her shoulder. Master Ye thought it was some inspector, and said impatiently, "Go away, didn't you see that my mother is eating, we will talk about it after we have something to eat."
After speaking, I continued to eat the delicious chicken nuggets. I didn’t know how it was made, but it was so fragrant and delicious.
But in the next second, a cold breath breathed in her ears, and a gloomy voice sounded beside her ears, "Do you think this meat is delicious?"
Master Ye nodded subconsciously, then trembled, the chicken he was chewing suddenly got stuck in his throat, and he couldn't get up or down.
Who the **** is this, why is the voice so penetrating!
