Chapter 361 Royal Street boasting officials

With the help of Feng Bao, Zhu Ping'an changed the crown of the number one scholar. The crown of the number one scholar showed a sense of superiority that was different from other Jinshi. It was closer to the court uniforms of civil and military officials. The crown of Erliang was a pure gold crown.

Hairpin, a green tassel goes around the chin.

The robe of the number one scholar is crimson, which is different from the green color of other Jinshi, and is more conspicuous and noble. The belt is a plain silver belt of a sixth-rank official, and there is also a medicinal jade pendant with pearl tassels hanging down.

The only unpleasant thing is that the two rows of dotted green hairpins on the hat are larger than those of Jinshi. It feels a bit weird for a big boy to wear such two rows of dotted green hairpins.

"The No. 1 Scholar is truly a talented person." Feng Bao complimented Zhu Ping'an after he changed into the No. 1 Scholar uniform.

"Eunuch Feng is joking. I am probably the most handsome scholar since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, haha." Zhu Pingan shook his head slightly and smiled. He is very self-aware of his appearance, even though he is wearing the uniform of the scholar.

Even if the results are not achieved, I will not be able to reach the level of a talented person.

Zhu Ping'an and the other three people changed their crown clothes and returned to the main hall. Several palace attendants came with trays containing three cups of imperial wine. They were presented to Zhu Pingan, the number one scholar, and the second-ranked scholar, Tan Hua Lang, and three cups of royal wine.

With the imperial wine, he saluted from a distance in the direction of Xiyuan where Emperor Jiajing lived, then drank it all in one gulp and placed the wine glass on the tray again.

The "Yujie Kuaiguan" ceremony officially began. In fact, "Yujie Kuaiguan" is essentially the process in which the No. 1 scholar leads the Jinshi to the left gate of Chang'an to watch the officials post gold medals, and then goes home.

Officials from the Ministry of Rites, Honglu Temple and other departments held the gold medals and walked at the front. Zhu Pingan led the second-ranked scholar and Tanhua Lang in the middle, and the rest of the Jinshi walked behind.

We walked together, but the paths were different.

Zhu Ping'an led No. 2 and Tanhua Lang along the royal road of the palace, while everyone else walked aside. Generally speaking, only the emperor could walk on this royal road. Even the queen only walked on it during her wedding.

Once, and then you can never leave again.

Of course, Zhu Ping'an and the others can only go this time. But this time for millions of scholars in the Ming Dynasty, this is the highest honor! The absolute highest honor! An honor that can only be dreamed of!

Zhu Pingan didn't notice anything when he walked up. It was just that the second pick and Tanhua Lang behind him were different. Zhu Pingan felt something was wrong as he walked. When he looked back, uh, the two people behind him were so excited that they could hardly walk, and their faces

It was also an exaggeration to bring two tears.

No, Zhu Ping'an looked at the excited two people, but after thinking about it, he understood. Among the three great joys in life, he was ranked first when he was named on the gold list.

Han Yupeng looked at Zhu Ping'an who was looking back calmly and leisurely in front of him. He was in awe of him. The number one scholar is the number one scholar. Look at his mentality of not being happy with things and not feeling sad with himself. He couldn't do it. He never thought that he could win.

In second place, he has connections but not toughness. He is far inferior to Ouyang Zishi, who is a well-connected person. In terms of level, he was only sixth in the last examination. Judging from the results, Huiyuan, Zhu Ping'an and others are better than him.

Much higher, when the results of this palace examination were released, he suddenly got the second place on the list. This kind of great joy from heaven, if he didn't worry about the fact that this was the palace and took care of the mood of Ouyang Zishi in front of him, Han Yupeng would probably howl.

Only by shouting can one vent the ecstasy and excitement in his heart.

At this moment, walking on the royal road that can only be walked by the emperor, Han Yupeng was so excited that he could not describe it.

Thinking that he only had this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to set foot on the royal road, and to take care of the two people behind him, Zhu Pingan slowly slowed down.

Walking slowly, it originally only took ten minutes to reach the Gate of Supreme Harmony, but it took Zhu Pingan nearly half an hour to reach the Gate of Supreme Harmony.

Han Yupeng and Tan Hualang, who were ranked second on the list, looked at Zhu Pingan's steady steps and wished they could give Zhu Pingan a hundred likes.

When passing through the Gate of Supreme Harmony, you should also take the middle gate, which only the emperor can walk through. After passing through the Gate of Supreme Harmony, continue walking forward. Then you will arrive at the Meridian Gate. The Meridian Gate is also called the "Five Phoenix Tower" because the Meridian Gate

There are five gate towers in total. The main tower is like a phoenix spreading its wings, so it is called the Five Phoenix Tower. The door opening of the Meridian Gate is a very unique design. From the front, the Meridian Gate has three door openings, but from the back, there are

Five door openings. When Zhu Ping'an and the others arrived at the Meridian Gate, the guards on duty in front of the Meridian Gate opened the main gate and the gates on both sides. The gates could only be seen from the side.

Zhu Ping'an led the second place candidate and Tanhualang through the main gate, the civil servants led the other new Jinshi through the Yemen on the east side, and the military attache led the Yemen on the west side.

After leaving the Meridian Gate, there were more drums and drums, and the gongs and drums were noisy, and there were blows and beats everywhere. Under the guidance of the drums and drums, they went out of Duanmen and Chengtianmen in sequence, and then passed through a very broad square before arriving at Daming Gate.

The left gate of Chang'an in the inner northeast corner.

Because the palace test list has always been hung at the left gate of Chang'an over the years, the left gate of Chang'an is also called the Dragon Gate, which indicates that the candidates who enter the list will jump over the Dragon Gate and become the upstarts that attract much attention.

At this moment, the left gate of Chang'an was decorated in a particularly festive manner. A temporary "dragon tent" was built and large red silk lanterns were hung. Zhu Ping'an and the others walked into the dragon tent and watched the officials from Honglu Temple and the Ministry of Rites post the gold list.

The gold medal list was magnificent, with the seal "Emperor's Treasure" stamped on it. The newly promoted Jinshi looked at the posted gold list, and tears ran down the corners of their eyes with excitement.

After the gold medal was posted, the Shuntian Prefecture Yin, who had been waiting for a long time, came forward with two officials. The Shuntian Prefecture Yin came up and said congratulations, and then he couldn't help but put a big red silk draped diagonally on Zhu Ping'an's body, on his chest.

It happened to be a big red flower, and Zhu Pingan had another big red flower on his hat.

The other two officials also covered the No. 2 and No. 1 with bright red silk and put big red flowers on them.

The other Jinshi looked at the three of them with envy on their faces, especially Ouyang Zishi, who looked at Zhu Pingan with envy and jealousy.

Soon, someone brought in three tall horses with pure red coats, the saddles were dyed gold, and the riding whip was woven from gold wire. Zhu Pingan stepped on the stool first, turned over and rode on the most handsome tall horse, holding a

The golden riding whip walked at the front, followed closely by Bang Er and Tan Hua Lang on horseback, and the rest of the Jinshi followed on foot, heading all the way to Chang'an Street.

In front were the guards with flags and drums to clear the way, holding the No. 1 Scholar lantern and carrying red and yellow flags and plaques with the words "No. 1 Scholar and Zhu Ping'an" and "Three Prizes in a row" and other signs. They were blowing, beating gongs and drums, and blasting firecrackers.

Of course, the people in the capital were more enthusiastic.

At this moment, people from the capital all roared onto the streets of Chang'an. The roadside, upstairs in the store, and other places where people could stand were full of people. Everyone rushed to the streets, standing on their toes and stretching their necks.

, all looking towards the street.

Even the girls who usually stay out of the house dressed up beautifully and ran out to see what the No. 1 pick looks like.

On this day, it was rare for their family to restrain them.

The streets of Chang'an are crowded with people! The streets are empty, all waiting to see the champion! (To be continued.)
