Who would have thought that I had attended the forest banquet of the best candidate on the imperial list?

"Qionglin Banquet" is a banquet for Jinshi. Started in the Song Dynasty. According to Song Taizu, after the court examination, the emperor announced the ranking of the imperial examinations and held a banquet to celebrate. Since all the banquets were held in the famous Joan Lin Yuan, "Joan Lin Yuan" was a royal garden in the west of Bianjing (now Kaifeng) in the Song Dynasty. Two years before Song Huizong Zhenghe (112), Xinji Jinshi gave a banquet in Yuan Dynasty, so the banquet was named "Qionglin Banquet". "Song Shi Le Zhi Si" also records: "In the second year of Zhenghe, Gong's family had a good time in Biyong, and still stopped to feast in Lin Yuan with elegant music." So two years later, Zheng He changed his name to "Wenxi Banquet". Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, also known as "Rong En Banquet". Although the names are different, the contents of the ceremony are basically the same, and they can still be collectively called "Qionglin Banquet". According to reports, Liao once hosted a banquet in the Inner Orchard or the Ritual Department to entertain the new bachelor, but he also followed the Song people and called it the "Qionglin Banquet".

This is what people often say about the Qionglin banquet. There is a famous lyric in Huangmei Opera "Female Ma Xu": "I have been to Qionglin Banquet, and I have also played in Cocoon Street." This is what I said.
