How I Became the Emperor - Chapter 761
[761. Chapter 761 Another Palace of Immortality]
The next day, it was just dawn.
A ray of purple light shines on the sky and the earth, burning up a colorful cloud on the horizon.
The big city of Yujing wakes up.
In a school, after Wang Cheng washed up, he put on the gold-rimmed Feihe Confucian uniform sent by the Ministry of Etiquette. He stood in front of the silver mirror and looked at his dark self in the mirror, looking a little uneasy.
He is the literary Jinshi of Enke this time.
Last night, His Majesty came out of seclusion, showing off his power, and the whole world celebrated. According to the usual practice, today should be the day of His Majesty’s Imperial Examination.
Whether you can reach the top three in high school depends on today!
At this time, a handsome young man next to him who was also wearing the Feihe Confucian uniform came over and said with a smile: “Brother Wang, don’t be nervous. Even Prime Minister Su and the Minister of Civil Affairs praised your article. In this palace examination, the top three will be selected.” You’re just picking something up!”
“Brother Tang, that’s His Majesty, who became an immortal at the age of twenty. Aren’t you nervous?”
Wang Cheng pursed his lips, a trace of panic flashing in his eyes.
The handsome young man smiled and said: “Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and he is a wise king. You and I have nothing to do wrong, so why panic? Besides, a month ago, you and I went to ask for divination, and the divination master and fortune teller said that this time you Enke’s ranking is outstanding!”
It turned out that these two people were the two candidates Lu Gan met when he found Mr. Corpse. Both of them performed well and qualified for the palace examination.
“That’s true.”
After hearing this, Wang Cheng inexplicably remembered the man in black robe holding the white fox he met at the fortune-telling stall, and felt a little calmer.
“Students, it’s time to set off.”
At this time, the voice of the Secretary of the Ministry of Rites came from outside the door.
The two looked at each other, straightened their clothes quickly, walked out of the dormitory door, and followed a group of talented people to board the carriage in front of the school in an orderly manner.
Gurgling, gurgling.
The carriage drove smoothly and rushed to the palace.
The candidates in the car couldn’t help but start to relax and chat. After all, we are all classmates and may become officials in the same court in the future. It would be good to get closer at this time.
“Well, it would be great if I had one billionth of your majesty’s martial arts talent.” After the greetings, one of the tall scholars sighed, his expression full of reverence and admiration.
This sentence instantly aroused the resonance of everyone, and they all commented:
“Yes, yes, your Majesty is really a god!”
“I am afraid that this twenty-year-old immortal is the only one in the world! I will work for eternal prosperity!”
” Huh, what are the top ten evil cultivators? They were suppressed and captured when they encountered our Majesty. Your Majesty is so powerful that you can’t be offended by mere monsters.”
“I have carried your Majesty’s portrait with me, and I haven’t slept well these days. “
Hehe
, hehe, I am from Qingyang County. I went to Qingfeng Pavilion last night to cultivate my health. When I found out my origin, those beauties came over immediately, and I didn’t even need to pay for food, drinks, and fun!”
Everyone: “… “
After some nonsense, the group finally arrived at the main entrance of the palace.
“Students, please get out of the car.”
The clear shouts of the officials from the Ministry of Rites resounded and reached Wang Cheng’s ears.
Immediately, a group of students stepped off the carriage one after another and lined up vertically and horizontally, filling the entire entrance of the palace.
Wang Cheng raised his head and looked at the majestic palace gate and vermilion tile walls in front of him. He couldn’t help but clenched his fists and said with bright eyes: “I must win the top three, shine on the lintel, and repay Your Majesty!”
The last time Emperor Wu Sheng’s favor, he performed abnormally. , returned to his hometown and was ridiculed and looked down upon. Just when he could no longer hold on, Emperor Qian ascended the throne and started Enke again.
This gave him a glimmer of hope!
Moreover, the most important thing is that when a student enters Beijing, he rides on the Tieniu Express and eats and drinks for free, which saves him a lot of money to travel to Beijing! Such a wise king, how could he not use his talents to repay this kindness!
At this moment, the students filed in and entered the palace one by one.
When passing the palace gate, a ray of light swept over, making people feel slightly warm. It must be the detection of the magic weapon.
After entering the palace gate and passing through a white jade arch bridge, Wang Cheng couldn’t help but feel curious. He glanced around with his peripheral vision, looking at the road that officials had to pass every day to go to the morning court.
Before he had even taken a step, suddenly, someone in the crowd made a startled sound.
Wang Chengxun walked over and saw a ‘golden stone’ ejected towards this side. In a few blinks, it appeared in front of a group of students.
Wang Cheng took a closer look and couldn’t help being surprised.
This golden stone was clearly a golden stone monkey, only the size of a walnut. Its two eyes shot at everyone, and its nose was still gently sniffing, as if it was exploring something.
It actually looks kind of cute.
The next moment, an amazing scene appeared!
“Hah!!”
The golden stone monkey on the ground looked up to the sky and let out a loud roar. Suddenly, the sound was like thunder, causing everyone’s eardrums to bulge in pain.
The masculine blood energy billows and spreads out like a bright sun, covering all directions.
Amidst the roar, the golden stone monkey beat its chest with both fists, and its body expanded as if it were inflated.
In a few blinks of an eye, it turned into a fierce beast as huge as a mountain, with golden eyes, bared teeth, and red hard hairs all over its body.
The huge palm is as big as a house when held, as if it can grab people and devour them at any time.
It looks very scary!
“Ah!”
“What a big monkey.”
“This is a true mountain ape of the martial saint level!”
“What’s going on?”
…
“Students, don’t panic! This is a true mountain ape raised by your majesty, and it is the protector of Daqian. Divine beast!”
The official from the Ministry of Rites who was leading the way shouted quickly, trying to appease everyone.
At this moment, the mountain real ape grabbed a tall woman from the crowd with a big hand, stretched it out in front of her, and carefully looked at her sleeves, the more fierce the bared teeth became.
The two pointed fangs shone with a cold light in the sunlight.
The tall woman immediately turned pale with fear and trembled all over.
call out.
A ray of white light fell from the sky, and the girl in white clothes, Bai Susu, landed on the top of the mountain ape, glanced at the tall woman, and snorted: “Huh, a mandrill monster dares to come to participate in Enke? Do you really think that? Your talent is invincible, can’t others see it? Moreover, you are full of blood, and it seems that you have been secretly eating people recently! Someone, take her down and hand her over to the Zhenfu Department for interrogation
! In the blink of an eye, a blue light shot out, hitting the tall woman between the eyebrows.
“Ah! No!”
The tall woman screamed, white light flashed all over her body, and she turned into a monkey-like monster with a red nose, a grimace, and a goat beard.
“Hey!”
The mountain ape grabbed the monster, roared, threw it to the ground, and then stepped on it, directly trampling the mandrill that was trying to escape until its bones were broken, as if it had been crushed by the stars.
Immediately afterwards, a group of wolf-like guards rushed out, destroyed its acupoints, pierced its bones, removed its joints, put on shackles, and took it directly to the prison.
“Good boy, good job.”
Bai Susu threw a jade spirit fruit.
The mountain ape opened his mouth wide and ate it directly. His whole body shone with light and turned into the size of a walnut.
Then, it jumped onto Bai Susu, and the two flew away.
This change in the scene made all the students marvel at it, and many of them even showed excitement. They had something to talk about after they returned.
In the imperial study room, Lu Gan’s eyes seemed to travel through space, seeing all this, he said calmly: “Have you written down all the students who were not afraid of danger just now?”
“Report to Your Majesty, I have written down all of them.” The Minister
of Rites beside him said
Qin Zhen said with great respect.
“Very good, then just call them in and start the palace examination.” Lu Gan stood up and walked like a dragon and a tiger.
Su Qiuyu, Qin Zhen and other court ministers followed closely behind.
At this time, many students entered the Qianyuan Hall and saw rows of long tables separated by three feet. Under the leadership of the eunuch, they each found their seats and sat down.
Wang Cheng was in the northwest corner of the palace, and he and the handsome young master in the southeast corner looked at each other through the air. They both held their breath and concentrated, waiting for the palace examination to begin.
“Your Majesty is here!”
At this time, Eunuch Yu shouted loudly, which resounded throughout the hall.
Following the sound, Lu Qianlong appeared in front of everyone with tiger steps.
In their senses, Lu Qian was like the lord of heaven and earth, with his feet on the mountains, rivers and heaven and earth, his body whirling around the sun, moon and stars, coming down, as if he were dominating all things in the world, majestic and astonishing.
Many students were frightened and did not dare to look further.
In the corner, Wang Cheng couldn’t help but take another look. Why does Your Majesty feel familiar?
“See your majesty!”
The next moment, when Lu Qian was sitting on the dragon chair, many students immediately stood up and bowed to salute.
“You are all the talents of my great cadre, no need to be polite.”
Lu Qian waved his black dragon robe casually.
“Thank you, Your Majesty!”
Wang Cheng and other candidates thanked him with their hands, and then sat down, feeling a little more at ease.
“Su Qing’s family, let’s get started.”
At this time, Lu Qian said calmly.
“Wei Chen takes orders.” Su Qiuyu stood up and collected them all, walked to the front of the palace, turned around to face the students, and said in a clear voice: “Everyone, the palace examination has officially begun! Light the sandalwood, ring the bell! Distribute the examination papers!”
Dang!
A clear bell rang, resounding throughout the hall.
The eunuch in red lit the sandalwood in the cauldron, and wisps of white smoke rose up.
Stacks of test papers were quickly distributed to all the candidates.
Wang Cheng opened it and took a quick look, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough, it was still the same pattern as in previous years, with policy and discussion being the main focus.
However, the main exam question this time is a bit bizarre: “On the relationship between the general trend of the world and the women in brothels?”
This question should have been asked by His Majesty.
After pondering for a moment, he came up with an idea, dipped his pen in ink, and wrote: “The merchant girl does not know the hatred of the country’s subjugation, but she still sings the flowers in the backyard across the river…”
At this time, Lu Qian on the dragon chair also opened his mouth. Talent Scan.
Accompanied by the sound effect of ‘Everything I own is mine’, a series of prompts resounded in my mind:
“Ding, we found Bai Xiangyu, a talent of internal affairs, Gangqi realm.”
“Ding, we found Li Tang, a talent of military ability, Feitian realm.”
“Ding, found a talent in the internal affairs and military field, Wang Cheng. Gangqi realm.”
“Ding, found a talent in alchemy, Guo Zan. Flying sky realm.”
…
“Not bad, not bad, these are all talents from Daqian! Some of them are civil and military. He is a dual cultivator and also participated in the martial arts competition! There are really many talents!”
Lu Qian glanced over, looking quite pleased.
At this moment, three particularly clear and loud system prompts sounded:
“Ding, internal affairs type and alchemy type talents were found??”
“Ding, information is being collected… Collection completed.”
“Ding, Immortal City Palace of Immortality was found… …Connecting…Connection completed”
