The Divine Doctor Son of the Female Master

Chapter 172 The end of the imperial examination

After he finished speaking, Fei Ling unfolded the yellow silk and read out loudly one by one: "The first place in the first class, the top scholar Shen Xizhi, was appointed as a sixth-rank Hanlin Academy reader; the second place in the first class, the second place Fei Buli, was appointed as a sixth-rank Dali Temple judge; the third place in the first class, the third place Qi Ying, was appointed as a sixth-rank Ministry of Revenue director."

As the imperial edict was read out, the students who were named stepped forward one by one, knelt down to receive the emperor's grace, their excitement beyond words.

It was read out soon.

Luo Qingzhi said in a deep voice: "Today, I specially grant you official titles, hoping that you will live up to your learning, work diligently and love the people, share my worries, and serve the country."

This was undoubtedly a warning, and the students responded in unison, "We are grateful for the emperor's great grace, and we will be determined to contribute everything to the country and the people, and live up to the emperor's grace!"

Looking at the young and energetic faces, Luo Qingzhi felt very comforted. At the same time, she could see the excitement and joy hidden beneath their calm surfaces.

She raised her voice and said, "In the imperial examination, you have traveled through mountains and rivers, braved wind and rain, and experienced untold hardships. During this period, you studied hard and forgot to eat and sleep. This shows your persistence in your ambitions and your loyalty to your country."

"Therefore, I grant you seven days to go home to visit your families, reunite with them, and share the glory. After seven days, you must return to the capital on time and officially enter the court!"

Upon hearing this, the students were all moved to tears and kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace. We will definitely live up to your high expectations and return on time in seven days to serve the country and plead for the people!"

"Get up!"

Luo Qingzhi stood up, nodded and smiled, then turned and left.

Fei Ling summoned loudly: "Retreat the court--"

The announcement of the adjournment of court meant that this tense imperial examination had officially come to an end.

The students stood up in an orderly manner and slowly left the hall.

Today, whether sitting or kneeling, they dared not misbehave in the slightest in front of the palace, which resulted in their steps being a little heavy, but in their excitement, that was already ignored.

Thinking about putting on official robes and returning home in glory, and thinking about the official career that is about to begin, everyone has a proud face and tears in his eyes. This moment is not only the pinnacle of personal honor and disgrace, but also a glorious moment that brings glory to the family and is the hope for the future.

Behind them, the palace gate slowly closed, and the heavy sound seemed to knock on the students' hearts. They looked back at the towering palace gate, their hearts filled with hope and yearning for the future.

Outside the hall, the sun was shining, the spring breeze was blowing, and the students were surrounded by golden light as they set out on their journey home.

Not only them, but all those who passed the list were rewarded, some were appointed as county magistrates, some were appointed as teachers, and each had their own assignment.

In short, whether you are on the list of successful candidates or not, you will all start a new journey at this moment.

.......

Morning next day.

Luo Qingzhi announced that King Yu had committed a serious crime, and there was evidence from both witnesses and objects. The facts were right before their eyes. All the ministers were shocked at first, but then they could only shake their heads and sigh.

I don't know whether he was sighing at King Yu's overestimation of his own abilities, or at something else.

However, he was extremely surprised that the Emperor did not kill King Yu to eliminate future troubles because of his rebellious intentions, but instead handed his two children over to the Queen Mother who had "recovered from her illness" to be raised.

When did the Emperor become so kind?

Is it because she got married that she became gentler?

However, with so many previous experiences, the ministers did not dare to guess the emperor's mind or test it randomly, so they hid their curiosity in their hearts.

-

At night, Luo Qingzhi handled government affairs in the imperial study. Under the light, she looked at several letters in her hands, her beautiful brows were tightly furrowed, and her eyes were dark.

"You mean, Nuo Fei was killed by an unknown force, but Hua Heming and his group encountered no accidents on their way back?" Luo Qingzhi's voice rang out in the room, staring at the letter in her hand.

In front of the desk, Ming Feng nodded silently.

After a moment, she said in a deep voice: "Master, according to the news from Lei, this Nuo Yue has gone mad. Since she has already attacked Nuo Fei, how could she not attack Hua Heming? Is she pretending to be mad?"

"Maybe." Luo Qingzhi said calmly, "Or maybe someone else let her know the 'truth', so she stopped!"

"Others?" Ming Feng's eyes turned slightly, "Master, are you talking about Hua Heming? Or Sikong Canxue?"

Placing the letter on the table, Luo Qingzhi smiled leisurely, "Anyone who comes to attend my wedding is possible."

"Master, then..."

"It doesn't matter. I want to see what actions they will take next." Luo Qingzhi's expression was unusually cold.

.......

"Queen Feng, you're here?" Fei Ling's voice came from outside the door.

Then came the familiar gentle voice, "Well, is Azhi still busy?"

"After returning to the phoenix, the emperor is still busy."

"Okay, let me go in and take a look."

"Please, Queen Phoenix."

When she heard that Ayun was coming, Luo Qingzhi stood up happily and went out.

When she bumped into the man who exuded a gentle aura, her heart softened. She stepped forward and hugged him, saying softly, "Ayun, it's so late, why are you still awake and running over here?"

"I've slept enough during the day. Seeing that you haven't gone home yet so late, I wanted to come and see you and bring you some snacks to fill your stomach." Yan Yunqi explained with a smile.

Luo Qingzhi smiled, "Ayun still loves me."

Little did he know that Keshu behind him put the two plates of snacks in his hand on the table, then ran away with his hands covering his mouth and laughing.

The young master lied without blushing. It was obvious that he couldn't sleep without the emperor by his side, so he came here.

It's actually said that I've slept a lot during the day.

He has served the young master for so long, how could he not know the young master's habits and changes?

Although on the surface the young master seemed no different from before, as a bystander he could clearly see that his young master was subconsciously becoming more and more attached to the emperor.

Perhaps it’s because he has a baby, so the young man is clingy without realizing it.

Of course, part of the reason why the young master did this was because he was worried about the emperor.

But who is Luo Qingzhi? She could see the fatigue in Ayun's eyes at a glance.

She had been busy these days and didn't have much time to accompany Ah Yun. Seeing him so sleepy and still pregnant, she felt sorry for him. Luo Qingzhi kissed his forehead and said softly, "I'm not hungry. We're almost done with our work. Let's go back to sleep."

Yan Yunqi raised his head, "Really?"

"Yes." Luo Qingzhi nodded.

After saying this, Yan Yunqi nodded happily, "Okay, then let's go back to sleep."

He yawned as soon as he finished speaking.

Seeing this, Luo Qingzhi picked him up and said to Mingfeng, "Go ahead. Remember to have Yu, Bing and Lei keep an eye on the movements of the troops."

Knowing that his master and his lord had a good relationship, Ming Feng saluted with great tact and said, "Yes, master, I understand!"

Accustomed to being held, Yan Yunqi no longer took it seriously. Instead, he curled up in Azhi's arms as usual. With her steady steps and the unique fragrance on her body, he, who had been sleepy for a long time, fell into a deep sleep in a short while.

Holding the person in her arms, it felt like she was holding her whole world. Luo Qingzhi felt extremely satisfied and sweet in her heart, and her smile seemed to drown people all the way.
