Chapter 380 Look up
Today's Ziwei Palace feels much heavier, with invisible pressure pressing down heavily, and all the officials are looking at themselves.
Facing the faces and looking at the various expressions of admiration, exploration, thinking, and fun, Liu Sheng walked towards the golden figure at the front.
Walking to the front, Liu Sheng bowed deeply.
Looking up, she saw the emperor smiling and nodding to her, and the queen and empress dowager also showed appreciation.
"Liu Zhuangyuan, he is smart and the Ai family likes him." The Empress Dowager smiled kindly.
[What does it mean to be smart...]
Liu Sheng thought to himself, keeping a courteous smile on his face.
The queen smiled and echoed: "I won the first place in the first class, but I am not arrogant at all. At such a young age, I really have a bit of Yuan Ting Yue Zhi's bearing."
Speaking. , looked at the eldest princess.
The eldest princess twitched her lips: "Yes, happiness and anger are invisible, but they are good materials for being an official."
Liu Sheng seemed not to hear this strange yin and yang, and stood quietly in front of Ziwei Palace.
Listen to the emperor read out again:
[The second person in the first grade of Jinshi in the ninth year of Jinghe... Chang'an Wen Xuanning. 】
【First place and second place in the literary test, first place and second place in the martial arts test】
It seems that Wen Xuanning is back safe and sound.
Liu Sheng sneered in his heart.
However, we also know that he is very likely to be an important part of the plan of the worshipers. As long as these people are here, he cannot disappear completely.
But as long as she takes one step at a time, she will take away everything he wants.
And the things he once took away, little by little, I tried to make him spit it out...
But she needed a better plan.
Now, it’s the first step.
Wen Xuanning, who was at the end of the team, swept his black robe, snorted coldly, and stepped forward.
The students who had slandered him just now realized that this embarrassed madman was Wen Xuanning, and they couldn't help but feel regretful.
But I don’t know why, seeing that he is no longer as graceful as before, I feel happy in my heart.
It is also human nature to step on the low and support the high.
If Liu Sheng was not stronger than him, he might not think so.
But now it is discovered that what if the spirituality is over 100?
Not invincible.
So Wen Xuanning fell to the altar, and everyone was shocked to realize that he was just an ordinary person.
Liu Sheng looked at Wen Xuanning, who was dressed in pitch black as if he had returned from hell. He walked towards her with a gloomy expression and glanced at her coldly.
After saluting, stand quietly behind her.
However, Liu Sheng could still feel the gaze that was like a maggot attached to the bones nailed to her vest, as if it was about to tear out her flesh and blood.
However, Liu Sheng has experienced a lot, and is not afraid of the eyes staring at her back, wishing to tear her into pieces.
It is better to go back to my third article and think about how to design an empirical study on this strange aura conversion model.
On the other side, the roll call continued:
[The third person in the first grade of Jinshi in the ninth year of Jinghe, Chang'an Lin Shuying. 】
Liu Sheng was secretly happy when she heard that Senior Sister Lin also got a first grade.
Next is the list of top two candidates.
The rankings are: Lu Shen, Yu Huan, Xu Dajuan, Chu Shudu, Xie Yan, Shen Ziyan, Qu Chunyan.
Including Yijia, there are ten people in total.
The emperor's personal roll call ends here, and the rest will be done by Hanshan Jun.
Only the top ten can go to the Ziwei Palace for face-to-face interviews, while the top three in the palace examination can accept the emperor's advice and receive the Jade Wat personally, and then be conferred an official position on the spot.
However, this time, something is different.
The emperor simply asked a few questions about Liu Sheng’s place of origin and the contents of the examination paper, and Liu Sheng answered them one by one.
"I remember that Liu Zhuangyuan has published two very important argumentative articles."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Liu Sheng said with cupped hands.
"I looked at your test paper and there seems to be some clues about the conversion of spiritual energy and strange energy."
Liu Sheng nodded and said realistically: "That's true. The students are currently solving the conversion model. The answer will be available soon. ”
To be more modest, I won’t say that the model has been released, just waiting for verification.
There was a sudden discussion in the hall. We have been asking about this matter for hundreds of years. How can we get the answer so quickly?
The emperor smiled, thinking that it was just the youthful spirit that was deliberately displayed in front of the saint, and that was why he spoke so brazenly.
"This matter is very important to the Tang Dynasty. I hope that Liu Zhuangyuan can achieve results as soon as possible." The emperor smiled very kindly, "I remember that Mei Yuanzheng has quite a lot of experience in this matter."
Mei Yuanzheng immediately came out and bowed and said: "What your Majesty said is absolutely true."
"However, I only have a little experience in the way of spiritual energy, and the mysterious energy is still being explored. Maybe Liu Zhuangyuan will be needed to provide me with some new ideas.”
Mei Yuanzheng said the last sentence very sincerely. The emperor smiled and said: "Meiyuan Zheng has always been modest. In short, after Liu Zhuangyuan entered the Academy, he asked Meiyuan to give him some advice. Liu Zhuangyuan is a rare talent."
"I accept the decree."
When Liu Sheng heard this, she realized that the emperor wanted her to study directly with Mei Yuanzheng and participate in his project after entering the National Academy.
Of course Liu Sheng would be happy with such a good opportunity.
Immediately she said with a face of joy: "The daughter of the people has thanked your majesty and the emperor."
The emperor smiled and said: "Liu Zhuangyuan is quick in thinking and has something to say. Now the Tang Dynasty is in a critical moment. , It is precisely the learned people like Liu Zhuangyuan that are needed. I hope that you will graduate from the National Academy of Sciences as soon as possible and join the imperial court to serve the Tang Dynasty."
This is a very high evaluation. Everyone in the palace has different expressions. The ministers thought deeply, and the newly promoted scholars were envious.
Then the emperor gave him something.
It is not a jade tablet, but a sacred book.
"I hope that Liu Zhuangyuan will not forget to look up when he is studying."
The emperor's words are quite meaningful.
Liu Sheng looked at the sacred book in his hand, thoughtfully.
Could it be that the emperor was hinting that she should study the Supreme God more so that she could decipher Him?
[Probably not...] Shijie whispered.
When he arrived at Wen Xuanning, the emperor asked him a few questions casually, said something similar and praised him as the pillar of the country, and then gave him an unbladed long sword.
It seems to be the holy sword that made up for his loss.
"A gentleman's sword hides its edge in the body, and can advance and retreat in a controlled manner."
Wen Xuanning smiled, accepted his thanks, and lowered his head to hide the coldness in his eyes.
As for Senior Sister Lin Shuying, she received a small gold scale. She is expected to inherit her father Lin Shaoqing of Dali Temple's ability to uphold justice and praise good and criticize evil.
The remaining seven people each received a set of pen and ink given by the emperor.
In this way, it is over only when the palace gives you the right gift.
"Next, there will be a new conferment ceremony." The emperor announced.
……
“Should we start?”
At this time, Nangong Wan stood on the wall of Zeyang City, looking up at the Supreme God in the sky.
The north wind is hunting, sweeping through the clothing belt and splitting the ice particles blown by the wind.
It was obviously summer, but it actually started snowing in Zeyang City. At this time, the sky had gradually darkened, and only a bright and clear face was left in the sky looking down at everything indifferently.
A hundred miles north of Zeyang City is the Mobei Army, staring at Zeyang City eagerly, like a giant beast ready to move.
But why not move?
The reason lies in the man standing next to Nangong Wan.
Taibai Sword Immortal.
He is guarding here. Although there are only a few thousand soldiers and horses in the city, no one dares to cross this hundred miles.
But he will not take action at will, because the two countries have an agreement, and he cannot give that woman an excuse to go north to fight at will.
“The plan of those in the capital is about to begin.”
Taibai Sword Immortal also looked up at the sky, looking at the indifferent face of the Supreme God. The piety in his heart involved the deepest fear, making him forever trapped in the torment of separation.
Even if he is as advanced as Taibai Sword Immortal, under the gaze of the Supreme God, he can only crawl on the ground and say nothing.
Nangong Wan did not feel this way, only the unspeakable disgust and deep fear from his heart.
"Alas..." Nangong Wan sighed.
“Several of your students are going up.”
"Yes." Nangong Wan nodded, his face as cold as frost.
I have just received news from the capital about the final ranking of the imperial examination.
Among the three students in the first class, two are her students, and there are four students in the top ten. This is really a gratifying result.
The Huaishan training camp next year will probably be even more popular.
"But that girl named Liu Sheng..." Taibai Sword Immortal shook his head, looked at Nangong Wan and said, "Aren't you worried?"
But Nangong Wan looked up at the sky and didn't speak for a long time.
Then, the pupils vibrated, shaking with broken fear.
Taibai Sword Immortal felt something in his heart and looked towards the sky.
My heart was shaken.
I saw that the divine face that had existed in the sky for three hundred years gradually turned into a faint shadow, almost blending into the night sky, leaving only a vague outline.
Instead, there was an illusory door.
And a flight of stairs leading to the door.
