"First, we will announce the candidates for the Second-Class Roll!”
"Second-Class Roll Jinshi, first place Li Tao, second place Yang Lie, third place Wang Yuan, fourth place Zheng He"
"23rd Li Zongwang, 24th Chen Qi, 25th Cui Bo, 26th Zhang Yuan!”
The ceremonial officer came to the announcement stage and looked at the crowd calmly. Then, he began to slowly read out the list of second-class scholars.
His calm appearance made many people want to beat him up.
"I got it, I got it, I got it!"
"Haha, I've passed the imperial examination, I've passed the imperial examination!”
"Ah, congratulations Brother Li, congratulations Brother Li!”
"Congratulations!"
“.......”
After the ceremonial officer finished reading the list of Jinshi on the second-class roll, the scholars who had passed the middle school examination could no longer hold it in. When they heard the names, they smiled happily and cheered.
Some waved their hands and laughed loudly towards the sky, while others smiled reservedly and cupped their hands at the surrounding scholars. They spoke modestly, but the smiles on their faces could not be hidden, making the surrounding scholars look envious.
Chen Qi was equally excited when he heard his name.
He had just transmigrated and had already obtained the status of a scholar. This starting point was much higher than most of the transmigrators.
Moreover, no matter which feudal dynasty it was, as long as one passed the Jinshi examination, it was equivalent to having an official position.
No matter how bad one's performance in the court examinations was, one could still become an official of the imperial court. It was just a matter of whether the official position was important or not.
Moreover, the court examinations of the Tang Empire did not test the Four Books and Five Classics, but only the discussion of strategies.
As a transmigrator, Chen Qi expressed that this was a free question, a stage for him to show himself.
No matter if it was a rich country or a strong army.
Chen Qi said that no matter what, he could tell Li Shimin.
As long as Li Shiming and the other officials were fooled, wouldn't it be easy for him to become a marquis?
He thought about how he had shocked the world with his brilliant performance in the court examinations, and how all the officials in the court had bowed to him.
Chen Qi could not help but smile confidently.
Don't ask. Asking is a sure win.
How could he lose when he had already started with a Dragon Knight's face?
I, Chen Qi, will be the one to start the prosperous era of the Great Tang in the future.
The only fly in the ointment was that the status of a Jinshi was indeed a little low and did not match his identity as a transmigrator.
It would be even better if it was the top scorer.
A certain someone thought greedily.
"Be quiet, next up is the list of the top ten people on the First-Class Roll!”
Just as Chen Qi's thoughts were flying, the ceremonial officer's loud scolding sounded in his ear.
The ceremonial officer scolded the scholars who were cheering and then began to read out the names of the First-Class Roll.
"First-Class Roll #10, Cheng Ying, Cheng Zongwen"
"First-Class Roll #9, Fan Hai, Fan Wenzhuo"
“......”
"First-Class Roll #3, Lu Shao, Lu Xiuyuan!”
"First-Class Roll 2nd place, Cui Ming, Cui Mingzhi!”
"First-Class Roll, Chen E, Chen Guangrui!”
After all, he was a First-Class Roll Talent, and also one of the ten most outstanding scholars (with the greatest backing) in this imperial examination.
Therefore, when the ceremonial officer announced the names of the top ten on the First-Class Roll, there was an obvious difference in treatment.
Not only did the smile on his face increase, but he also read out the names of the top three scholars.
Name, name, these two words had to be read separately.
A name was a name, and a word was a word. They could not be confused.
For example, Chen E, who was ranked first on the First-Class Roll, had the surname Chen, the name E, and the word Guangrui.
"However, Chen E, why does the name Chen Guangrui sound so familiar? I seem to have heard it somewhere before.”
"Could it be that this guy is really a famous person in history?”
When Chen Qi heard the words "Chen E, Chen Guangrui", he couldn't help but frown.
He felt that this name was very familiar, but he couldn't remember who this Chen Guangrui was.
He just instinctively felt that this name was not ordinary. It seemed to represent something very important!
It couldn't be helped. During the Zhenguan period of the Great Tang, if you told him about Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong, Zhangsun Wuji, and the others, he would definitely know.
Even if he didn't, he would be familiar with Di Renjie or Li Yuanfang.
Only this Chen Guangrui, he really couldn't remember which historical figure she was!
"Congratulations to the students of the High School Entrance Examination. Three days later, His Majesty will personally summon you to Taiji Palace for the court examination. You must prepare in advance and not miss the time.”
After the ceremonial officer finished reading the list, he smiled and cupped his hands at the scholars in front of him, reminding them.
After saying that, he left leisurely, leaving behind a group of scholars who were either smiling or sad.
Chen Qi heard the ceremonial officer's reminder and did not bother to think about who Chen Guangrui was. He smiled confidently and turned to leave.
He still had important things to do, so how could he be in the mood to care about Chen Guangrui?
......
An hour later!
Chen Qi carried a generous gift and appeared in front of a tall mansion.
This was the residence of the current Minister of Revenue, Yang Xuan. It was also where the branch of the Yang family, the top aristocratic family, was located.
"Greetings, Young Master!"
When Chen Qi's figure appeared in front of the Yang Residence, the two servants guarding the entrance hurriedly bowed and greeted him.
"No need to be so polite. Is Uncle in the residence?”
Chen Qi asked with a smile, not putting on any airs.
When the servant heard Chen Qi's question, he immediately smiled and said,"Biao Young Master came at the right time. Old Master has just returned to the residence.”
Hearing that Yang Xuan had just returned to the Yang Residence, Chen Qi's smile grew wider. He greeted the two servants and entered the Yang Residence with the gifts he had prepared in advance.
