Gong Jian was still listening helplessly, and had to listen to the corner where he was "forced" to listen. At first, he didn't stand up for the first time, and now he can only listen obediently.

The person who started to speak was obviously in a depressed mood, but he still insisted on persuading: "Brother, what else can you do if you don't do this." How can people like us compete with those people? Like our brothers, we can only work hard to see if we can play at a higher level, and if we can make the list. Anyway, in addition to these people, aren't there some places on the list? ”

The second person was obviously even more depressed, "Alas, speaking of this, the eldest brother may still have hope, but brother, I think, my knowledge is not as good as that of the eldest brother, and it is estimated that this scene is in vain." Originally, I was still a little confident when I came, but when the eldest brother reminded me, I felt that I was very reluctant if those people were half of their number. If they all make the list, I will also lose Sun Shan's life. ”

Obviously, when it comes to exams, neither of them is sure. So when it came to this, the two people who had just spoken no longer continued to discuss.

And Gong Jian had already left that secluded place at this time, he really felt a little embarrassed, it was really not that he wanted to eavesdrop on anything, in fact, he was just at the literary meeting, he felt that it was too boring, so he wanted to find a quiet place to breathe, who knew that he was in such a hurry. These two people actually fell in love with this secluded place. Besides, if they say it's so hidden, they don't know if there's anyone around here.

At that time, Gong Jian didn't hear these words in his heart. After all, in his opinion, it is not a difficult thing to achieve fame. And the exams are all over, and there is no point in talking about it. What I should do now is to wait patiently for the list to come out and see the results. Of course, I have to add to this the fact that I am trying to contact other students.

In fact, Gong Jian forgot what the two of them said, but after listening to the words of the person just now, he remembered such an incident. Looking at the obvious names on the red list, he now of course realized that it was really like what the two said.

After this list came out, there was something unusual. If the third person still has some literary talent, everyone can still see it, although because everyone touted it, it is estimated that he really thinks he has the talent of the champion. But no matter what, it's still passable. But no one knows what the level of the second place is.

At least the third place is still willing to participate in the cultural conference, and he has to show his erudition when he has the opportunity, but the second place is never willing to participate in the cultural conference, which is exactly the opposite of the third place.

It's not that the second-place student just thinks of himself as high and disdains to participate in the meetings of these literati. In fact, well-informed people have said that some children of rich families have mentioned that they seem to have met the student who ranked second in the Qinglou Restaurant.

Moreover, it is said that by listening to the tone and words of those people, it can be judged that it seems that this student is famous not for his learning, but for his level of pleasure-seeking.

Such a person with a reputation can directly get on the red list, and he is still ranked second or third, such a conspicuous position, if Gong Jian still thinks that this examination is fair and just, then he will not participate in the imperial examination in the future. This is basically blatant and open-minded fraud in the examination room.

Thinking that when he heard those two people speak before, he had mentioned that there were more than ten people who would occupy the quota, and Gong Jian hurriedly continued to look down at the lists on the red list. Among those names, there are indeed some names that he has heard of and have a certain deep background. However, no one can confirm the exact number of people.

Even if I have been reminded in my mind, the imperial examination is inseparable from fraud, after all, the imperial examination is also presided over by people, and those who read the papers are all people. And where there are people, how can there be absolute justice and fairness?

Thinking of this, Gong Jian couldn't help but shake his head. In any case, this kind of fraud in the imperial examination, the farther away you are, the better. After all, no matter which trend this matter develops, it will have no impact on him.

If the examiners overwhelm the unsuccessful students, of course, Gong Jian feels that this possibility is more "sexual". After all, since ancient times, it has become an unspoken rule for officials to protect each other. But think about it, if the official doesn't help himself, do he still have to help the person who stands on the opposite side of him?

But all officials hope that if one day they are in danger, then the people who are also officials can give them a hand and help them. So even if it's just to leave a way back for themselves, it's naturally clear how those officials will choose.

That's the way it is, it's like an endless loop, officialdom hasn't changed since ancient times. Therefore, it is very difficult for ordinary people to overthrow those who are officials, and people sue officials who have been punished since ancient times, not to mention this kind of fraud in imperial examinations.

After all, the imperial examination is a major event related to a person's future, even if those who are officials have already passed the examination, but it is inevitable that their families will have descendants, relatives, etc., etc., all kinds of relationships. These people don't jump out of the stones, and it is inevitable that there will be a lot of relatives and friends, but whenever you want to use relationships, you can pull out a large group of people.

This kind of thing is definitely indispensable. No matter who is the examiner, it is difficult to avoid this kind of personal relationship. Gong Jian made a bold guess, maybe even if the emperor himself came to make the examiner, then the people of his own royal family would be dragged to him, and it was inevitable that there would be such favors.

Therefore, Gong Jian is very optimistic about those students who have landed, even if they can unite many more people, under absolute power, what kind of waves can they make. And now, Gong Jian is already on the list, and he is indeed a meritorious person. He has already reached his goal, and there is no need to rush at all.

And if things really take a huge turn, or a meteorite falls from the sky, so that those candidates who fall behind actually knock down the examiner. Then it's a big deal to take the exam again. With his own level, Gong Jian doesn't believe that if he takes the test again, even if he still can't be completely fair, his ranking will definitely not be more backward than the current ranking.

So no matter how you think about it, Gong Jian feels that this matter has nothing to do with him.
