Li Shimin praised the top three, the top two, and the top three. Then, it was the highlight of the court examination-the imperial street bragging.
The imperial street bragging was also known as the street bragging.
The scholar rode on a tall horse and walked on the streets of the Imperial City, enjoying the glory of the people.
Of course, the second-ranked and the top-ranked would do the same, but they had to fall behind the top scholar and could not steal the limelight.
As for a Jinshi like Chen Qi, he didn't need a bicycle. He could just walk.
The purpose of praising officials on the imperial streets was to commend the top scholar and other scholars, and to encourage the ambition of everyone in the world, especially the students.
He encouraged them to learn from the top scorer and use them as role models. He encouraged them to work hard, study hard, participate in the imperial examinations, and serve the emperor of the Great Tang Dynasty.
It's all formalism, formalism. I'm not envious, I'm not envious!
A certain transmigrator told himself sourly.
However, his eyes couldn't move away from Chen E.
Soon, under the arrangements of the officials of the Bureau of Rites and the Chamberlain of Dependencies, the top scholar, second runner-up, and third runner-up were led to the side hall. This was because being an official in the imperial street was a matter of great importance to one's face. One had to change the three of them into festive and dazzling clothes.
As for Chen Qi and the other scholars, they watched them leave with envious eyes and waited for them to change into beautiful and dazzling red robes.
The scholars around Chen Qi looked at Chen E with envy.
To be more precise, he was looking at Chen E's crown with envy.
The top scholar's crown was different from the other Jinshi's. It was more similar to the court clothes of the civil and military officials. It was the court crown of Er Liang, with a pure gold hairpin and a green tassel hanging from his chin.
Moreover, the top scholar's robe was a silk color, different from the other Jinshi's green silk color. It was more eye-catching and noble. The belt was a sixth-grade official's plain silver belt, and there was also a medicinal jade pendant with pearl tassels hanging down.
F * ck, this treatment was not just a little bit better than ordinary scholars. It was on a completely different level, alright?
The only pity was that he wasn't wearing such handsome clothes.
This was probably the common thought of all the scholars in Taiji Palace.
However, this was Taiji Palace. Even if the scholars had thoughts in their hearts, they did not dare to say it. They could only look at Chen E with envy, unable to move their eyes away.
After that, the official ceremony officially began.
The officials from the Bureau of Rites and the Chamberlain of Dependencies held the golden roll and walked at the front.
Chen E, the top scholar, walked in the middle with Chen Qi and the other scholars behind him. They walked out of the palace together and headed towards the results platform outside the Sky Bearing Gate.
To put it bluntly, it was the process of the top scholar leading the scholars to the palace gate to see the officials post the gold list and then go home.
Outside the palace, there were more drums and drums, and the sound of drums and gongs filled the sky.
Under the guidance of the drum music and the royal staff, everyone came to the temporary Dragon Shed set up by the imperial court to watch the officials of the Ministry of Rites put up the Golden Roll.
After the Golden Roll was pasted, the Chang 'an Prefect, who had been waiting for a long time, came forward with two officials and congratulated him. Then, without any explanation, he draped a big red silk over the top scholar's body. There was a big red flower on his chest and a big red flower on his hat.
The other two officials also draped red silk over the second-ranked man and the flower man, and inserted red flowers into them.
As for Chen Qi and the other thirty-three Jinshi, forget it. They just had to be honest green leaves.
Then, someone brought over three high-headed horses with pure white fur. The saddles were dyed gold, and the whips were woven from gold thread.
Chen E, the top scholar, stepped on a stool and mounted the most handsome white horse. He walked at the front with a golden whip in his hand. The second-ranked scholar and Tanhua Lang followed closely behind on horseback. The rest of the scholars followed on foot and headed all the way to Chang 'an Street.
In front of them were bailiffs with flags and drums to clear the way. They held the champion's lantern in their hands and carried red and yellow flags with the words "Top Scholar and Chen E" and "Three Yuan in a row" on their shoulders. They walked in front of them with their cards, blowing and beating gongs and drums, and firecrackers.
Of course, the people of Chang 'an were more enthusiastic.
At this moment, all the people in Chang 'an City rushed to the streets of Chang' an.
The roadside, the upper floors of the shop, and all the other places that could be used for people were filled with people. Everyone rushed to the street, tiptoed, and craned their necks to look at the street.
Even the young ladies from noble families who usually did not go out of their houses ran out dressed up beautifully, wanting to see what the top scholar looked like.
The streets of Chang 'an were crowded!
Everyone turned out to look at the champion!
The surging crowd in the streets and alleys could ignite the air with their enthusiasm, and the wide Chang 'an Avenue was packed tightly.
It could be said that no one asked about him for ten years, but he became famous overnight!
Unfortunately, at this moment, most people's eyes were attracted by the top scorer at the front. Even the second scorer and the flower man had become the back view, let alone the scholars who were walking behind.
Especially some of the prettily dressed young ladies, with their faces full of spring and almond-shaped eyes charming, raised the handkerchief and flower accessories that they carried with them, and threw them at Chen E with force. For a moment, it was as if it was raining handkerchief sachets.
Chen Qi followed behind the Jinshi team and also received the same treatment as the handkerchief and sachet rain.
After all, there were many unmarried girls in Chang 'an. Many women also knew that their conditions were not good enough for the top scholar, so they set their eyes on the Jinshi behind them.
Chen Qi could only endure the rain of handkerchief sachets falling from the sky. He didn't dare to stop them, nor did he dare to reach out to receive them.
If you try to stop them, you might be misunderstood as arrogant and look down on them.
If he accepted it, it would mean that he was interested in the owner of the handkerchief and sachet. Perhaps he would have another fiancée out of nowhere.
Therefore, Chen Qi could only bear it helplessly like the other scholars.
In the end, he could only ignore these and just follow the team in front of him.
