After the palace examination, only the top ten test papers drawn by the examiners will be presented to the emperor. The emperor first looked at two or three test papers. When he raised his eyelids, the people around him held the specially selected test paper in front of His Majesty.

There are many people who guess the emperor's wishes. What the emperor wants to see the most is naturally Xiao Jiashu's test paper.

The examiners also knew that because of Concubine Xiao in the palace, the emperor was particularly concerned about Xiao Jiashu. Otherwise, a small scholar, who was so deed and could have been asked by His Majesty during the county examination.

Although he did not like the emperor's favor with the harem, the examiner could not deliberately remove Xiao Jiashu's paper.

How could Xiao Jiashu, who won five yuan in a row for three years, not even the top ten in the palace examination? That would be a slap in the face.

Speaking of winning five yuan in a row, everyone could not help but glance at the young officials in front of their eyes, wearing vermilion robe and orchids, and were younger than most people in this hall, and their official career was much smoother.

It makes people sigh and feel.

This person who won three yuan in a row and was named Tanhua and became famous all over the world.

"Well written." The officials' thoughts were interrupted by the emperor's praise, and they couldn't help but twitch their mouths. Knowing that Your Majesty, you like Concubine Xiao and Concubine Xiao's brother very much, but you don't have to show it so obviously.

After watching other people's test papers, the emperor said directly, "Xiao Jiashu can be the top scorer."

"Although this paper is good, the people's tutor is really younger." Lord Zhou, the head of the examiner, said politely.

He had read Xiao Jiashu's paper when he signed it, and even gave the word You without hesitation. However, after knowing that this book was from Xiao Jiashu, he couldn't help but think more.

Although Xiao Jiashu was not only not dragged down by Shang Qing's age and experience, far surpassing his peers, but also outstanding compared to other scholars' test papers, just like Lord Han in the past, he was given the name of Tanhua, which was neither disappointing his talent nor too ostentatious, and it would be better for young people to suppress them.

What the examiner said seemed reasonable, but he forgot that the emperor was no longer the emperor eight years ago. He had only ascended the throne for a few years and the government had begun to stabilize, so the emperor could only suppress his preferences. The emperor had a great regret that he could not have named Han Jinyu as the top scholar back then, so how could he miss this opportunity again?

The emperor turned to Han Jinyu, "I wonder what Han Aiqing thinks?"

Han Jinyu smiled slightly, "There is a blessing for your Majesty," said the country's young talents."

Even if he had any ideas, the emperor's meaning was so obvious, and Han Jinyu could not disobey him.

Although Your Majesty is lenient, he would rather work with the court officials to achieve what he insisted on than to do. In recent years, he has become more and more obvious in the court affairs.

Upon hearing this, the emperor said, "What Han Aiqing said makes sense. He is so talented at a young age. He can naturally afford this top scholar to serve the court."

The examiners also saw that if there was any Lord Han, the emperor had made up his mind to give Xiao Jiashu the title of top scholar.

There is no need to continue the dispute, it is just a distinction between the top scholar, and in the eyes of these people who have been involved in the officialdom for many years, it is just a trivial matter. In the end, even Lord Zhou retreated and planned the first three games according to His Majesty's wishes.

But after finishing the writing, the officials seemed to realize that the top scorer was not light. The top scorer at the 18-year-old was still the first sixth and sixth in this dynasty.

———

Xiao Han also found that the reputation brought by the previous county examinations, government examinations, college examinations, provincial examinations, and provincial examinations seemed to be inferior to the last top scorer.

Although the time has been a little short, whether it is meaningful, knowledgeable, or guessing the emperor's wishes and guessing the test questions, winning five yuan in a row is not difficult for Xiao Han.

She didn't think much about the last top scorer, and half was based on test papers and half was based on luck.

Xiao Han remembered that he was the son of Han Jinyu later, and was praised by the world for being better than the blue one, with someone who succeeded him.

Some things about the emperor and the examiners discussing the name of the top scholar on the same day were also spread. It was the emperor who excluded the controversy and dear Xiao Jiashu, the top scholar. This only increased some attention and a few people's private words, and the popularity of the new top scholar did not fade away at all.

On the day when the Three Ancestrals were wearing flowers and playing horses, the emperor brought Concubine Xiao to the palace city to watch the scenery. Although such actions have been made in the past, it is rare to bring concubines. Anyone with discerning eyes knows that the emperor specially made Concubine Xiao happy.

Seeing those silk handkerchiefs throwing at Xiao Jiashu, Concubine Xiao was also a little excited and was unable to leave the palace, so she sent two palace servants to throw a basket of peony flowers to the top scholar. The peony flowers were a precious variety in the imperial garden. The emperor was not angry, and Concubine Xiao said that she would pick them.

Concubine Xiao was not as gentle as other concubines when they were always gentle and gentle. She seemed delicate, but in fact she was cheerful and energetic. Instead, the emperor was much more tolerant of her.

Xiao Jiashu was even calmer than the second-tier Tanhua who was younger or even older than him. He slowly rode his horse, as if those people were not watching him, nor were they throwing things at him.

A slightly larger object could easily avoid it.
