Film and TV starts with acquiring a memory palace

Chapter 682 A Visitor from the Palace

After the people around were shocked for a moment, they all burst into thunderous cheers.

This is a grand event that takes place every three years, so both sides of the street are full of people, and there are only three people riding horses on the middle road.

Although Gu Tingyu has experienced so many worlds, he still felt a little excited when he saw this.

"You know what, this thing is really addictive. No wonder everyone likes to be a star."

Gu Tingyu walked forward while thinking in his mind.

Gu Yankai stood in his family's carriage, watching his son walking in front, his eyes full of satisfaction.

Shao Xueyan held Yuan Ge'er in her arms and held Xian Jie'er's hand. She looked at her husband with admiration and worshipped all the gods and Buddhas she knew in her heart.

"Yuan Ge'er, you see, this is your father. Isn't he very handsome? In the future, our Yuan Ge'er will also be like his father, okay?"

Shao Xueyan excitedly whispered to her son, her words full of anticipation.

Yuan Ge'er didn't understand anything at the moment, but when he saw his father in the distance, he stretched out his two chubby little hands and wanted to go over.

Although Xian Jie'er didn't understand what this scene meant, she admired her father deeply in her heart.

"Uncle, uncle, pick me up and let me see. I can't see clearly."

Sister Xian was small and couldn’t see clearly, so she quickly pulled Gu Tingye’s pants and said.

Gu Tingye didn't waste any time and directly carried Xian Jie'er on his neck. This made Xian Jie'er very excited. She hugged Gu Tingye's head and waved at Gu Tingyu.

Gu Tingyu also saw his family members and waved to them with a smile.

Time passed quickly, and after the horse parade, Gu Yankai finally sat back in the carriage.

After giving some instructions to the servants, they went home.

 …

The Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion started to hold buffets again. This was no longer new news. After all, everyone in Bianjing knew that Gu Tingyu had passed the imperial examination and became the top scorer.

Many families in Bianjing that were similar to the Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion were now regretting their decision. They had previously thought that Gu Tingyu, a sickly man, would not live long, and had all disagreed with the marriage with the Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion. Unexpectedly, a country girl took advantage of the situation.

That’s right, the country girl refers to Shao Xueyan. To the people in Bian Jing, she really is a girl from the country.

But there is no other way now. She has been married for a long time and has two children. If you ask her to be your concubine, you will not be able to bring yourself to do that.

Therefore, many unmarried women turned their attention to the other two people, which is also a kind of happy trouble for them.

The Sheng family also celebrated, after all, the value of Sheng Changbai's second-class Jinshi degree was quite good.

In addition to setting up the wedding banquet, the Sheng family is not from Bian Jing, so they also need to go home to worship their ancestors. Old Lady Sheng also plans to go back with them, so Minglan goes with them.

Rulan and Molan were the ones who were unwilling to go back with them. Ever since they came to Bian Jing, they had absolutely no desire to go back to their hometown.

This is similar to many people today, who are dazzled by the colorful world outside.

Although Qi Heng failed the exam, it was actually nothing serious. However, when the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion held a banquet, Princess Pingning still did not come. She just asked the servants to deliver gifts.

However, Qi Heng fell ill all of a sudden. It wasn't any serious illness, it was simply a mental illness.

Although I felt relieved when I found out I failed the exam, it’s not easy to get over it, so I still went through some trouble.

Gu Tingyu was called over by Princess Pingning to help take a look, but there was nothing Gu Tingyu could do about this matter. He could only prescribe some health-enhancing medicine and comfort Qi Heng.

However, the effect was quite good. After a few days, Qi Heng recovered.

In fact, I understand that his relationship with Minglan is not that deep, and it's not to the point of life and death.

Half a month passed quickly.

All the Jinshi scholars in Gu Tingyu's batch were assigned official positions, and almost all of the top three Jinshi scholars were sent out, just like Sheng Hong. If they had no connections in the court, they would basically not be able to return until more than ten years later.

Sheng Changbai ranked eleventh in the second class, which was a good ranking. With the help of Sheng Hong, he was successfully elected as a Hanlin Academy Scholar. His position was editor, which was considered a low-paying job, but there was huge room for advancement. It all depended on himself.

As for Gu Tingyu, his official position was more interesting. He was appointed by the government as the sixth-rank Privy Councilor, which was no problem for the number one scholar.

However, the previous top scholar had never held this official position. Gu Tingyu thought about it and realized that it must be due to his identity.

After all, he is born into a noble family and will inherit the title of Marquis Ningyuan in the future. If he is placed in the Hanlin Academy, he will basically have no chance to make a name for himself.

This can be considered as the emperor's care. Because of this, Gu Yankai even went to the palace to express his gratitude.

The Privy Council is mainly responsible for the military forces of the world. It is a department with real power. Gu Tingyu's official position does not have much power. He is only responsible for drafting documents, but the things he comes into contact with are very important.

After being appointed as officials, many students in Bianliang left.

Although he already had an official position, the policies of the Song Dynasty were still relatively humane. They gave everyone a lot of vacation time so that they could return home in glory and visit their families. Different vacation times were given according to how far away the family was.

However, this was of no use to Gu Tingyu. But it would be better to have holidays instead of working, so Gu Tingyu just took care of the children at home.

On this day, Gu Tingyu had just finished breakfast and was walking around the mansion with Yuan Ge'er in his arms. Xian Jie'er was running a circle in front of him, and then came back with a flower. They were having a lot of fun.

A servant came running over at this time.

"Master, the master asked you to go over there. Is there anyone looking for you?"

"Huh? Who is it? Am I not on vacation now?"

"Master, I don't know either. The young mistress asked me to come here."

"Okay, let's go and take a look."

Gu Tingyu called Sister Xian over and walked towards the main room where Gu Tingyu was.

Before reaching the main room, Shao Xueyan had already come to greet her.

"My husband, someone is coming from the palace. Please give the child to me."

"Yeah, okay, I'll go take a look."

Unexpectedly, it was someone from the palace. Gu Tingyu was a little surprised. After handing Yuan Ge'er to Shao Xueyan, he hurried over.

After knowing that the emperor was looking for him, Gu Tingyu hurriedly followed the eunuch to the palace.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you, gentlemen."

"Tingyu, please stand up quickly and sit over there."

The emperor was not putting on airs today, and this was not a formal occasion, so Gu Tingyu quickly sat over.

"I asked you to come here today because of something. It's about the essay you wrote during the palace examination."

"We've been studying it for a while, but there are still some problems we can't solve, so we asked you to come and ask, after all, this is what you wrote."

The Emperor and Minister Han explained the situation separately, and then Gu Tingyu understood why he was called over.
