When Jia Zheng heard everyone's praise, he felt a joy welling up from his heart. remembered that he wanted to take the imperial examination back then, but his father left a legacy and cut off his own path to the imperial examination. Now his son is going to be promoted from the imperial examination, and it seems that the county examination is no longer in hindrance, it depends on tomorrow's ranking. So everyone put their hearts at ease and began to set up a banquet to thank everyone.

The next day, Jia Zhu had to go in person to see the rankings. Jia Zheng was not at ease, so he asked Jia Ke to accompany him.

When they arrived at the gate of the yamen, it was already crowded, and although some candidates had already fallen off the list, they still had to wait for the candidates they knew each other to go back together, so there were not many people watching the list this time.

After waiting for more than an hour, everyone was a little restless, and only then did a government official come to post the long paper, the last of the county exam, not according to the candidate's seat number, but by the candidate's name, so it is also called a long case, and the first place is called the head of the case.

Seeing the official posting a long scroll, everyone moved forward together to check the rankings. Jia Zhu is weak, so he really can't squeeze in, but Jia Ke has martial arts, where can these weak scholars squeeze him? He opened the way in front, and pushed to the side with his arms outstretched, and everyone was pushed aside, opening a way for him, and he took Jia Zhu and easily went to the front.

When he arrived at the top of the list, Jia Zhu anxiously looked for it on the list, he checked back and forth on the list, and the more he looked, the more anxious he became, because he didn't find his name. In the end, he was already trembling with anxiety, but Jia Ke couldn't stand it, patted him, pointed to the front, and said to Jia Zhu: "Congratulations to the second brother for being at the top of the list." ”

Jia Zhu saw his name at the top of the list. There was no relief in my heart, and then I was overjoyed.

Jia Zhu took Jia Ke's hand, kept trembling, and spoke incoherently, only knowing: "I'm in, I'm in." It seems that the imperial examination and Mrs. Wang's expectations still put a lot of pressure on him. Now that I've finally passed the first hurdle, the pressure is somewhat released, so I'm incoherent.

And Jia Zhu said that he was hit, but he was not talking nonsense.

According to the regulations, the first place in the county examination and the first place in the government examination do not have to participate in the future exams, and they are directly pointed out as showmen.

Therefore, Jia Zhu is now a showman, and he is only fourteen years old now, in which dynasty is the talent at this age, he can also be regarded as a prodigy. If nothing happens, it is expected to raise people and soldiers.

So everyone hugged Jia Zhu together, got into the car and returned to Jiafu, just now there was a small guy back to Jiafu to report the news, at this time people saw Jia Zhu come back, immediately set off firecrackers, the sound of cannons was endless, sounded for nearly an hour.

And Jia Zhu happily went to Jia Zheng's study to report the good news. As soon as they arrived at the door of the study, they saw Jia Zheng waiting for them at the door. As soon as Jia Zhu saw Jia Zheng, he knelt down and said: "Unfilial son lives up to his father's expectations, and he is at the top of the county test this time." won the show, and came to report to his father. "When he speaks, he looks forward to his own pride, and he has the meaning that the heroes of the world are here.

And Jia Zheng stepped forward to help him up, and said to him happily: "My son lives up to expectations, and he will definitely glorify his ancestors in the future, but don't be proud of the township test next year, which is the time for you to show your skills." ”

Jia Zhu replied proudly: "Follow my father's teachings, but it doesn't hurt for my son to come." ”

Jia Zheng pretended to be angry and said, "Ignorant child, how dare you say this." If you don't go to the inner house to tell your mother and the old lady, they have been waiting for you for a long time. ”

Jia Zhu then said goodbye to Jia Zheng and went to the inner house, and went to Jia's mother and Mrs. Wang.

Jia Zheng saw that Jia Zhu was gone, so he invited Jia Ke into the study, and the father and son sat down.

Jia Zheng said to Jia Ke: "You are also tired in the past few days, go back and rest for a while." I have asked someone to take care of your up and down, and there will be good news after a while. You don't have to rush. ”

When Jia Ke heard Jia Zheng say this, he was ecstatic in his heart, and Jia Zheng had not mentioned this matter for a while. He was still worried, wondering if Jia Zheng deliberately suppressed him or forgot. Now that I hear Jia Zheng mention it, I can rest assured.

Jia Ke returned to his yard, and when he entered the door, he saw Aunt Zhou sitting on the bed sullen. Jia Ke stepped forward to ask the reason, and Aunt Zhou said: "It's all because I don't have the ability, and you yourself are not angry, you look at Brother Zhu, who won the top spot at the age of fourteen and won the show." You're still a few months older than him, but now you're useless, and although you know some martial arts, you don't know if you'll be able to be an official in the future. ”

Aunt Jia Ke this week is because of this trouble. Don't comfort him and say, "Auntie don't worry about this, my father has already told me just now." He's already done it for me, and I think I'll have an official to do it soon. ”

Aunt Zhou said in surprise: "But really? Is that what your father said? ”

Jia Ke said with a smile: "I have a few dares to dare to say my father's nonsense. What my father said in his own study just now will not be false. ”

Aunt Zhou put away calmly, and happily went out to talk to Aunt Zhao, saying that she was going to talk to Aunt Zhao, but in fact, she was showing off to Aunt Zhao.

Besides, Jia Zhu entered the inner house and went straight to Mrs. Wang's room. And Mrs. Wang was already sitting in the main room waiting for him, and when she saw him come in, she was about to get up. Jia Zhu hurriedly stepped forward to help Mrs. Wang and let him sit down on the bed.

Mrs. Wang sat on the bed and took Jia Zhu's hand. Seriously looking at it, the more I look at it, the more I love it, and I feel that my son is good at everything. Jia Zhu's face was flushed when she saw her, and she was full of shyness.

Jia Zhu said to Mrs. Wang embarrassedly: "Mother and son won the top spot this time, fortunately thanks to his mother's help, otherwise he would not have been able to make such a big progress in his studies." ”

Mrs. Wang looked at him and said, "I am your mother, who else can I help if I don't help you?" Now that you've won the show, you can be a little more lenient. It's better to take less medicine. ”

Jia Zhu didn't think much of Mrs. Wang's words, but she still promised her: "What my mother said is that my son will control the dosage of medicine in the future and try to eat as little as possible." ”

Mrs. Wang was relieved at this time, because this medicine was purchased by his brother Wang Ziteng from overseas through a relationship, and it was okay to say that it was okay to eat less, once it was taken in excess for a long time, there would be great hidden dangers. So Mrs. Wang, she didn't give Jia Zhu much medicine every time.

When she heard Jia Ke ask her to come in to get the medicine just now, she was worried, but now she was a little relieved to see that Jia Zhu was fine.

It's just that she couldn't guess that Jia Zhu had been taking it for too long, and she couldn't do without that medicine, and even her heart had changed. thinks that as long as there is this miracle medicine, it will soar and soar, and it will only be in the hands of the official. Where can I still listen to her words.

After Jia Zhu reported the good news to Mrs. Wang, she went to the back house to report the good news to Jia's mother. Jia's mother didn't know the reason, but he was talented and intelligent, and he was the head of the county case at a young age, and he was a talent. happily rewarded again and again, and also passed the order to go, this month's monthly money will be doubled, so that everyone in the government can be happy.

In the next few days, the guests of Rongguo Mansion were feasted, and the four kings and eight princes were invited, and the old relatives were close friends. Because Jia Zheng was impatient with general affairs, this matter was handled by Jia Zhen of Ningguo Mansion, this Jia Zhen was a guest and a singer, and it was very lively, and the people in the whole capital knew that Rongguo Mansion had a fourteen-year-old talent. The future is limitless.

And at Jia's mother's place, it is not a noble lady who came to ask Jia Zhu if he is married, but there is a candidate for the match. Jia's mother knew this, so she deduced that she was too old to be the master of her son. This matter still has to be discussed with Jia Zheng.

Jia Zhu is proud of the spring breeze these days, and he sees all the Chang'an flowers in one day. Not only in the study of ethnicity, but also by the students and stars, even inside and outside the capital from time to time people visit. The heads of the mansions of the powerful in the capital all think that the next generation of Rongguo Mansion has Jia Zhu, and it will be able to prosper for at least a few decades. They are all envious of the heir like Jia Zhu in Rongguo Mansion.

But Jia Ke was in the dark, silently watching, watching him rise up the tall building, watching him feast guests, and watching his building collapse.
