For a whole month, Wang Xiu devoted himself to preparing for the exam, just like the vast majority of scholars, the triennial tribute is their top priority, and no one dares to be sloppy in the slightest.

Although Wang Xiu has more than nearly a thousand years of insight and unparalleled strategic prediction, he doesn't know the content of the exam paper! There was no choice but to make up for some knowledge, and claimed to be preparing for the exam with all his heart, and even Cai Yi politely declined to visit.

As for those celebrities, of course, they also know that he is working hard, even if there is a debate full of refuting the correct theory of the heart, I am embarrassed to disturb people at this time, you have delayed the fame of others, and it is stricter than killing your father and taking your wife, that is a mortal enemy!

What made Wang Xiu puzzled was that Zhu Lian never met again, nor did he see a trace, which made him lose his heart for a few days, but fortunately, the date of the Ministry of Rites exam was getting closer and closer, and he suppressed other thoughts and concentrated on studying.

I can't help but say that the Ministry of Rites test went very smoothly, even without shock, sat honestly, answered the questions in a proper manner, and answered the questions without being in the limelight or conservative. Because he knows that the Ministry of Rites exam does not mean the endgame, as long as he is not deposed, when Jin Mingchi posts the list, he is an ironclad jinshi.

The key is still in the palace test, that is the battle of the Jinshi, there is no room for sloppiness, and the etiquette test can make the promotion officer unhappy, and it is best to be decent.

Many scholars were deposed in the Ministry of Rites, not because they were not good at writing, not because they were unlucky, but because they didn't know the severity, they were either too radical or too conservative. The results all ended in the pen of the examiner.

Before entering, Wang Xiu and Shen Mo were together, but they experienced an interesting incident, but the impact on him was far-reaching.

"Crowded with people, the pomp and circumstance is unprecedented." Wang Xiu was on the edge of the crowd, pursed his lips, and said with emotion: "It's good to be an official." ”

Shen Mo stood beside Wang Xiu, and he smiled and said, "Thousands of people! There is a large area of open space in the Gongyuan, otherwise the Zhao official family will really have a headache. After a pause, he said: "The world's talents, all in one net, do you know if our brothers can be ranked in the yellow armor?" He was a little bottomless in his heart, after the screening of various military states, most of them were elite talents, and they were destined to be a bloody road to Huangjia.

"Just do your best." Wang Xiu pursed his lips, silent and uneasy, he was not worried.

One of them was dressed in cloth and wearing a flat horn? The young man at the head turned his head to look at Wang Xiu, and said with a faint smile: "I usually study hard, and I am naturally open-minded." ”

Wang Xiu didn't pay attention to the people around him, and glanced at the other party when he heard the words, but saw that this person was thin and elegant, and there was a noble air of Xiao Ming Huanyu in his calm and leisurely manner, he faintly felt that this person was not simple, and said cautiously: "Well said, the book is thousands of miles away and is not afraid of the sun and the moon. ”

The man's smile turned into surprise, his eyes were fixed on Wang Xiu, and he said in a deep voice: "It turned out to be Brother Wang, Zhao Kai in Xiakaifeng, I have heard your Excellency's name for a long time, and if I have the opportunity, I hope to discuss with Your Excellency." ”

Wang Xiu understood as soon as he heard it, the other party not only read the correct theory of Xinxue, but also wanted to refute his theory, he smiled faintly: "I still hope to teach." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the shadow of the prince's eyes flashed in his heart. Kaifeng Zhao Kai, isn't this the third son of today? I was actually bumped into by him.

His heart was like a terrifying wave, his eyes were hot, and he said with a smile: "I see that Your Excellency's bones are strange, and you will inevitably be at the top of the Yellow Armor list." ”

"Thank you Brother Tai Jiyan, if you can win the Sanding Armor, please be good in the future." Zhao Kai was in a good mood and laughed out loud.

Wang Xiu's mood calmed down, his face gradually calmed down, and he said lightly: "Then it's a word." "There is no need for him to befriend a vassal king, a prince who is destined not to become the Son of Heaven.

If there is destined to be a blend between people, even if they avoid walking, they will meet together, Wang Xiu and Zhao Kai seem to be like this.

After three exams in the Jinshi Science Rite Department, you will eat and live in the Gongyuan, but you will not hand in the paper after you finish writing, and in the specified hours, you will have to wait honestly after writing, waiting for the examiner to collect the paper in person.

After waiting for an hour, Wang Xiu was a little unbearable, and finally collected the scrolls, and under the shouting of the leading officials, all the scholars in each prison area were very graceful and divided into several pieces, and slowly gathered along the different paths in the tribute courtyard.

They are scholars, the elite of the world's people, no matter how tired and sleepy they are, they must have grace, and they rush to the gate in one go, and they will not be pawns of the peddlers.

In front of the gate of the Gongyuan, Wang Xiu and Zhao Kai met again, when the four eyes were staggered, Wang Xiu felt a little funny, and arched his hand: "It seems that we are really destined." ”

Zhao Kai smiled and said politely: "It's really fateful, no matter whether you can take the nail branch or not, this wine is decided." ”

Wang Xiuwan smiled and said playfully: "Forget it, forget it." ”

"I still have something to ask Your Excellency, how can I forget it, I don't know where Your Excellency lives?" Zhao Kai is in a good mood, as a learned prince, he is never willing to give up the opportunity to meet the young man, especially the scholar who can write the right theory of the heart, if he misses this kind of person, he will definitely regret it.

Wang Xiu gritted his teeth and smiled, he really didn't want to have a relationship with Zhao Kai, but the other party seemed to be very interested in him, so he had to whisper: "In the lower Guozi prison house, if you find the silence of the Shen family of Wanshixing, you can find it below." ”

Zhao Kai went satisfied, but Wang Xiu fell into deep thought, if he remembered correctly, this talented vassal king should be the real champion, because Zhao Ji was afraid that the corporal in the world would speak, so he was wronged, Wang Ang purely took advantage of Zhao Kai, so that he could cross the Donghua Gate in red.

It can be said that Zhao Kai is a literary prince, but he has no ambitions, perhaps his character is gentle and elegant, and he treats people with a bit of sincerity, but unfortunately he did not get the throne, and finally ended in tragedy.

Looking back at the memorial and blue archway of the Gongyuan, Wang Xiu's heart moved, if he could steal the sky and change the day, Li Dai Tao stiff, what kind of scene would the sky be? Suddenly, he was shocked by his crazy thoughts and broke out in a cold sweat, maybe it was because he reached a certain level that he had the idea of controlling the world!

When Shen Mo came over with a smile, he suppressed his crazy thoughts in his heart and said, "Seeing that my brother looks calm, he must have done well in the exam." ”

Shen Mo raised his eyebrows, grinned at the corners of his mouth, and said, "Aren't you also spring-colored." ”

"What do you mean by having a spring face, do you talk like this?" Wang Xiu rolled her eyes widely.

"I'm tired, it's even more tiring than the hall test, let's go, let's eat and drink." Shen Mo waved his hand, and if he did well in the test, he naturally wanted to celebrate.

Wang Xiu smiled and said, "I just don't have a place to eat in the afternoon, since Shen Dashao is the east, how can I not go, find a small shop to taste the deliciousness." "The big restaurant has all the colors, smells and entertainment, but it is always less chic and free.

The two of them went all the way to the Suzaku Gate, the Granny Cao meat cake in the east of Longjin Bridge. This is a century-old restaurant, and the owners of several generations have long been replaced by big men, but the taste of the meatloaf and soup has not changed at all, and the smell of the fragrance makes the appetite great.

"I've wanted to eat meatloaf for a long time, dude is really a roundworm in my stomach." Wang Xiu smelled the fragrance and couldn't help but be greedy.

"You! I'm having a treat here, and I have a few dollars left. ”

"Everything is prosperous, and I still care about a few small money." Wang Xiu walked into the hall as he spoke, and was stunned before he finished speaking, it turned out that Zhao Kai was sitting in the position near the window, and when the two entourages were on the side, he was holding the soup in his left hand and the cake in his right hand.

He couldn't help laughing: "It's the third time, it's really fate!" ”

"Who? It turned out to be Brother Zhao. "Shen Mo didn't think about the prince, he wanted the prince to secretly come out to participate in the tribute, isn't it a joke? If the prince is hit by the first family, the corporal of the world is not allowed to drown him with saliva.

Zhao Kai also saw Wang Xiu, stopped eating and drinking, and was still chewing in his mouth, waved his hand to Wang Xiu, and said inarticulately: "Come and share the table." ”

Wang Xiu smiled bitterly, he wanted to stay away but couldn't hide, and he couldn't help but give face when he greeted him, so he had to go over and sit down, and Shen Mo followed.

"Go serve you two hot soup and get a few meatloaf." As Zhao Kai spoke, he took a big bite of a few meatloafs, and drank a few mouthfuls of hot soup before he smiled: "The cakes should be hot, and the soup should be hot to taste." ”

Shen Mo nodded and said, "Yes, you don't need to be elegant in the meatloaf shop, just let go of your stomach and eat." ”

Wang Xiuyi raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "This is the way of eating the ancient ancestors, the Lile diet is too tiring, and I haven't even eaten enough after drinking a stomach of wine." When the attendant brought the soup cake, he rolled up his sleeves and took the soup in one hand and the cake in the other.

The three of them feasted for a while, their noses were sweating, and their bodies were comfortable, and the last sip of soup was drunk, Zhao Kai wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "Happy, I haven't been so happy for a long time." ”

Shen Mo was deeply touched, and sighed: "Yes, in the past, my family bought it back to eat, where was it in the shop, eating at the soup pot casually." ”

"Haha. That's right, no longer eat in the meatloaf shop, it's really less flavorful. Zhao Kai looked deeply at the silence, and said unsatisfied: "Especially the two writers of the Righteous Theory of Mind and Mind are so happy, it's really happy." ”

Wang Xiu gritted his teeth and smiled, and said, "It's just a small work, where can it get into the eyes of Your Excellency." ”

Zhao Kai shook his head and said with a smile: "It's too modest, if Brother Wang climbs the Huangjia Dragon Fly, he will inevitably ascend to the sky in one step and become famous, even if he is summoned by the official family today, it is not impossible." ”

Wang Xiu's heart moved, and he smiled quietly: "If you can get lucky to get on the top three tripods of the Dragon Flying List, you can also be summoned by the official family, but it's a pity that it's difficult, it's difficult to go to the sky." ”

"You said I could get the Sanding Armor, didn't you calculate it for yourself?" Zhao Kai was in a good mood and made a joke about Wang Xiu.

"Yi Xuehe Luo can't say it to himself." Wang Xiu was embarrassed for a while, where did he know his ranking, it would be good to be able to get the background of the second branch of the Jinshi, Sanding Jia? Let's go!

"Haha." Zhao Kai got up with a burst of laughter, and arched his hand: "Eat and drink enough, I will leave first." ”xh118
