Chapter 2207: Announcement

   Chapter 2207 Announcement of the ranking

was still in the Zichen Hall, and all the new scholars were changed into public uniforms, waiting anxiously outside the hall to be passed on.

After the civil and military officials in the hall saluted, an official from Honglu Temple came out and led all the scholars into the hall, and then knelt down and listened to the message one by one.

After the Jinshi Palace Examination, they were divided into three top grades.

The 1st Class awarded a total of 3 places in the 'Jinshi and No. 1', the first champion, the second second place, and the third third flower.

Second A was given several names of 'Jinshi origin', the first named Chuanlu.

The third A was given several names of "Tongjinshi origin".

Originally, after kneeling and worshiping, the emperor would roll his name in person and announce the names of the first and three people first.

However, I don't know what the emperor thought, so let the officials of the Ministry of Rites read the name from the third one in the back.

The Ministry of Rites naturally would not violate the emperor's oracle, and immediately began to roll names from the same jinshi.

All the candidates present did not want to sing their own names. Although Tong Jinshi was also a Jinshi, he was in an extremely embarrassing situation. To put it bluntly, this was just a consolation for Luodi Gongshi.

So no one wants to be a fellow jinshi like "Mrs.".

However, the number of Tongjinshi has always been the largest. Since the officials of the Ministry of Rites started calling the first name, many people began to show disappointment and pain.

For a while, only the sound of the officials of the Ministry of Rites calling their names remained in the main hall.

There are a total of two hundred and ninety-two people in the top three. After all the singing, all the fellow jinshi who are sure to go out, kneel down and give thanks.

The emperor's eyes fell on them, and after a few words of encouragement, he let them wait by the side.

The remaining jinshi who had not been called by their names bowed their heads, but all secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Except for the three of the first class, the rest were all born in the second class jinshi.

When the Ministry of Rites rolled their names this time, everyone's reaction was completely different.

Meng Yunzheng, who was standing in the crowd, kept his head down and didn't respond until the Ministry of Rites said, "Second Jia Chuanlu, Xie Bo."

Meng Yunzheng finally raised his head slightly, looked at Xie Bo who looked unexpectedly happy not far away, and smiled.

The jinshi of the second-class came forward to kneel to thank, and then stepped aside.

At this moment, there are only three people left in the center of the hall.

Many people's eyes fell on Meng Yunzheng, and their eyes were a bit complicated.

What happened in the hall examination room earlier made many people judge that he was disgusted by the emperor. Even if he was really good in the examination, it was the emperor who finally decided the ranking. Even if it is not good to give him the same background as a jinshi, he will still be ranked among the top two jinshi.

I didn't expect it to be the first one, and I don't know...what number it will be.

Everyone looked at the three people present, it seemed that Meng Yunzheng was the most handsome among them. It should be said that among all the jinshi, Meng Yunzheng's appearance is one of the best.

If not, the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion would not mind his background and future, and just wanted to marry him just because of that face.

The hearts of everyone are sour, and people like this are most likely to be a detective.

On the side, Mrs. Qi, Yao Tianqin and the others nodded with satisfaction. The top three matched the county lord Wen'an.

The emperor didn't know the thoughts of these people, he stood up and looked down at the three people in the hall.

then took the list handed over by the Ministry of Rites, opened his eyes and closed it again.
