Chapter Eighty-Nine: Bad News

On the day of the trial release of the list, the Southwest Gongyuan of Beijing Division was crowded. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Gu Weijun obviously didn't have a good rest last night, and the dark circles under his eyes were very obvious.

Gu Juan couldn't help but laugh and joked: "I always thought that my brother in Yushu Linfeng was not shocked, his heart was like still water, and he had already been confident about the imperial examination?" ”

Gu Weijun was suddenly a little helpless, and hurriedly said, "Ah Juan, when did I do this." ”

At this time, Xu Wenchang had already packed up and said to Gu Weijun: "Weijun, didn't you say that you were going to see the list today?" ”

"Here it is." Where would Gu Juan let go of Gu Weijun, hurriedly pulled her sleeve, and said, "I'm going too, I'm going to see the list." ”

At this time, Xu Wenchang was also present, and Gu Juan didn't care about the identity of the elder, so he pulled Gu Weijun's sleeve and didn't move.

Gu Weijun had a headache, sighed, and looked at Gu Zhi like a plea for help.

Gu Zhi looked even more nervous than Gu Weijun, and the dark circles under his eyes were scary.

"Ah Juan, it will definitely be crowded at that time, you are a girl's family, what are you going to do in that kind of place?"

"I don't squeeze over to watch the list like you, I'm just outside to watch the excitement, can't I?"

Gu Zhi couldn't say anything about Gu Juan in the end, so he had to bring Gu Juan over.

Since this place is not very far from the Gongyuan, a few people walked to see the list, I don't know if it was a psychological reason, Gu Juan always felt that Gu Weijun seemed to be extremely nervous, and the pace of walking was a little strange.

"Brother, these days, do you know what nickname you have in the Jingshi Fang?"

Gu Weijun was stunned for a moment, turned around, and looked at Gu Juan suspiciously.

"I still have a nickname?"

"Naturally, these days, my brother, Wen Chang is still Wang Kai, that is in the limelight in the Beijing Division."

Gu Zhi touched his beard and said, "Recently, there have been more people who have come to our house to inquire about your marriage. Gu Weijun was stunned when he heard this, and he couldn't laugh or cry.

"There are all kinds of them, some of them are called jade-faced talents or something. And the three of you also got the name of Taicang Sancai because of this. ”

Xu Wen was stunned for a moment, touched the beard he had just grown, and said a little helplessly: "I'm not from Taicang?"

"Ah Juan, what kind of calculation are you making, let us accompany Wang Kai to participate in various cultural meetings these days."

"I didn't do anything, I just asked Wen Chang and my brother to make more friends."

At this time, Xu Wenchang opened his mouth and said: "Lan Jun is talented, and his poems and articles are all amazing, but the style of teaching in Beijing is completely different from that in Taicang." ”

The three of them pulled their skins for a while, and after a while, they walked outside the tribute courtyard, only to see a sea of people outside the tribute courtyard, Gu Juan and Gu Zhi standing on the periphery.

Xu Wenchang and Gu Weijun squeezed into the crowd and went to see the list.

At this time, Gu Zhi said: "But I don't know what Wei Jun's ranking is this time?" ”

"Naturally, it's good, Daddy, don't worry." Gu Zhi looked at Gu Juan with some surprise, and when he was about to speak, he was stunned by Gu Weijun's shout.

"Daddy, I'm in! Won, fifty-sixth! ”

After Gu Zhi heard this, he instantly forgot the strangeness in his heart.

At this time, Xu Wenchang and Gu Weijun squeezed through the surging crowd, came to Gu Juan's side, and said, "Ah Juan, I saw it, Wang Kai is fourth, are you relieved now?" ”

Gu Juan was stunned after hearing this.

Now she is even more uneasy, this is obviously the rhythm of wanting to suppress the first raise, Wang Kai is still young now, and she always feels that things are a little too smooth.

After the examination, it is the palace examination, and the palace examination generally does not end up with candidates, so the examination is passed, and at worst, you can get a fellow jinshi background, but it is not bad.

But Gu Juan had hidden worries in his heart.

At this moment, Wang Yuanmei, who was a little lost on her face, walked over from a distance.

"Motomi?"

I haven't seen you for a long time, and Gu Weijun is a little rusty when he speaks.

"Weijun, congratulations."

"Yuanmei doesn't have to be discouraged, I'm just a fluke this time, I'm not as good as Yuanmei in terms of talent."

"Wei Jun doesn't have to worry, I'm going back to Taicang in a few days, and the marriage has already been arranged at home."

Gu Weijun was taken aback, and said, "Congratulations over there, I will definitely go to congratulate when I have time." ”

Wang Yuanmei glanced at Gu Juan and left.

Along the way, it was divided into quiet, and the main thing was that Gu Juan didn't speak.

In fact, Gu Juan's mood at this time was very complicated, he didn't know what words to use to describe his mood at this time, but he felt that Wang Yuanmei's eyes couldn't be forgotten.

Xu Wenchang has been in Beijing for several months, and he is indeed going to return to his hometown at this time, and on the eve of leaving, Xu Wenchang and Gu Juan are talking in the garden.

"Juan, thank you."

Gu Juan rolled his eyes and said, "Call me Aunt Ajuan." ”

Xu Wenchang was helpless.

He opened his mouth and said: "The parting sadness that I have cultivated with great difficulty has been ruined by your words. ”

"It seems that I will never see each other again, and I may not be able to return to my hometown this time."

"This is why, if Wei Jun has no accidents this time, he will definitely be an official in Beijing, how can he return to his hometown."

Gu Juan sighed, stood up and looked at the pitch-black sky.

"I'm just worried, but it can be that I'm worried."

When Xu Wenchang saw Gu Juan's appearance, he immediately felt a little funny, so he said with a smile: "You are a person, you always like to worry, but you don't know that people are not as good as heaven, let it be the will of heaven." ”

When Gu Juan saw Xu Wenchang's appearance, he suddenly became angry, looked at Xu Wenchang fiercely, and said: "Let God's will make you a fart, if God wants you to die, you will die, I believe that it is man-made." ”

Xu Wenchang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly burst out laughing, and the sound was so loud that the birds perched on the female wall were scared away.

"After everything has passed, Wen Chang will definitely write a biography of Ah Juan, so that future generations will see this strange woman of the Ming Dynasty, who is Gu's Ah Juan."

At this time, everything was quiet, Gu Juan looked at the clear man in front of him, and was speechless for a while.

The guy who said he was going to write a biography for Gu Juan left the next day, in fact, Gu Juan was still a little reluctant in his heart, this guy is erudite and talented, humorous and funny, this cheap nephew is much more interesting than his brother.

At the end of March, the temple exam.

Gu Zhi received a letter from Taicang, which was bad news.

Gu Laoer, who had already moved to the city, hit the carriage when he went to the street, returned home to recuperate, and kept taking medicine, but he didn't get better, survived the winter, but died at the beginning of spring.

Gu Zhi was very sad in his heart, Gu Juan could see it.

Due to the long distance, when this letter came to Jingshi, it was already a month later, and when Gu Zhi went back at this time, it was estimated that what he saw was only a grave.

Gu Juan was also sad in his heart, Gu Lao Er was a good person, a good man with a hard mouth and a soft heart.

But in this world, there are always good people who don't live long.

He has endured so many hardships in his life, but he has never had a good life for a few days.
