Chapter 667: Release
Zhou Heng realized, it seems that the old emperor also wants to hear the thoughts of these people about Tongzhou, after all, these people have been studying for many years, and they will become officials for a while, and their cognition is too critical.
Just when Zhou Heng was stunned, there was a commotion in the crowd in front, and everyone subconsciously rushed to the front, like a tide.
In Zhou Heng's position, he had already heard the roar of being stepped on in front of him, and some even argued.
Zhou Heng shook his head, like this, what will he be able to do as an official in the future, I really can't imagine it, Zhou Heng shook his head.
Zhang Jingrui was obviously a little nervous, grabbed his hand and kept rubbing it, looked at Zhou Heng and said:
"Uncle, it's time to release the list!"
Zhou Heng nodded, although he was a little uncertain in his heart, but his face did not appear, and he raised his hand to signal them to sit down.
"Don't be impatient, I'll take a look first!"
Saying that, he raised the binoculars, Mingyu had already come over and helped Zhou Heng lift the curtain, Zhou Heng leaned over and aimed at the wall that needed to be posted, and sure enough, several people in official uniforms stood on one side, and some people carried pasted brushes on the wall, and then someone began to post the list from right to left.
There are two ranking words on the big red list, the handwriting is not big, you can see it with a telescope, it is very clear, as the person pasted, Zhou Heng looked for it, and there were no names of Zhang Jingrui and Xue Mingyu in a few consecutive photos.
Zhou Heng felt a burst of chagrin in his heart, what's the matter, shouldn't it, could it be that these two goods answered the questions off the rails and didn't make the list?
Leaned sideways to look at Mingyu, who was approaching, and raised his leg and kicked it.
"Stand far away, it's a hot day, it's so close, it's too mushy to panic my heat, what kind of list is this posting, why is there no indication."
Zhang Jingrui is relatively experienced, after all, he participated in a palace examination three years ago, and quickly stepped forward and said with a smile:
"The list is posted, and it has always been pasted first the top three, then the second grade, and finally the first grade, only when it is pasted to the position with the word "third", you can see what level it is."
Zhou Heng realized, that is to say, this is the last class, I didn't expect this Liang to be the same as people, when Zhou Heng studied history in the palace test, he was transferred to the February exam after the autumn season, here is the autumn autumn in October of the first year, and the palace exam in July of the next year, and the paste list is also so alternative.
Shaking his head without thinking much more, he continued to raise the telescope.
At this time, the list had been pasted to the second grade, Zhou Heng looked for it carefully, and did not see the names of the two, and Boss Xue was a little anxious outside the carriage.
"Childe, do you have it, why don't I squeeze over and take a look?"
Mingyu grabbed Boss Xue, "Brother, don't worry, you can be on the list if you should be on the list, you shouldn't be on the list, it won't help if you squeeze through, I think I'm quite satisfied with the answer, if this can't pass, I will follow my son to Tongzhou, and I can do something like that." ”
Zhou Heng didn't expect that this kid had ideas, in fact, what he wanted to achieve as an official, he could also achieve it in Beishan, and if he wanted to solve the suffering of the people, he couldn't do anything, even if he followed Liu Renli, it would be good.
Just when he was stunned, there was an exclamation from the crowd in front of him.
"Oh my God! How is he? ”
"Zhang Jingrui, this is not the ninth son of Zhang Zhongtang's family, he was off the list last time, he turned out to be the eye of the list!"
"It won't be any ......"
"Who is this champion?"
"I don't know!"
"Haven't heard of it!"
"Be quiet!"
“......”
With an exclamation, Zhou Heng paused, glanced at the two boys, quickly pushed aside the two, and got out of the carriage directly, standing on the wheel, holding a telescope and looking at the list carefully.
There is only one piece of paper in the first class, and there are three names on it, the champion Xue Mingyu, the list eye Zhang Jingrui, and the tanhua Xu Jinheng.
In front, someone has begun to surround a man and continue to congratulate, judging from the shape of his mouth, this person should be that Xu Jinheng, a Confucian shirt is a little white, looking at the grade at least thirty years old, this person is so excited that he has burst into tears.
Zhou Heng put down the binoculars, looked at the two people who came out with him, and smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth.
"Yes, I didn't lose face, the champion and the list were taken over by the two of you."
Xue Mingyu was startled, his eyes widened and he was a little overwhelmed.
Zhang Jingrui also put away his smile, he had already heard the shouting of those people, and his face was overjoyed.
Boss Xue was in a hurry, snatched the telescope, raised it to look at the list, and Zhou Heng's face sank.
"Hey, I said why are you like this, you can't be more stable when you are the brother of the champion, give me the telescope, I still have to find a name!"
Boss Xue read the list, he pursed his lips and didn't smile, let alone argue with Zhou Heng, handed the telescope to Zhou Heng, and patted Mingyu's shoulder hard.
"I'll go back and buy some incense, candles, and paper money in a while, burn paper for my father, and tell them that you have passed the exam, and our Xue family is finally going to have an official person, which is all blessed by my father and mother."
Mingyu kept nodding, his eyes were misty, and he recognized his brother's words very much, and he didn't wait for him to say it.
Zhou Heng put down the binoculars, he originally wanted to find Zhu Xiaochang's name, but the words of the two brothers made him very angry, standing on the wheel and pointing at the two of them, he suddenly glared.
"I said, what do you two think, did your father teach you arithmetic, tutor you in poetry, or help you train in strategy? Now you know to burn paper money? If burning paper money works, you just burn paper money every day! ”
After saying that, Zhou Heng jumped directly from the wheel, Mingyu was startled, quickly knelt on the ground, and respectfully saluted Zhou Heng.
"Thank you Childe, I can't call Childe Master now, thank you Master for your careful teaching, otherwise Mingyu is still ignorant."
Zhang Jingrui also knelt down, banging his head three times, and the sound was not mixed with water at all.
"Jingrui thanks to Shizun for his teachings, Shizun not only saved Jingrui's life, but also made Jingrui truly recognize how to go in the future, which Jingrui has never had in his life for more than 20 years, thank Shizun!"
Such a move attracted the attention of countless people, and everyone was originally studying why Zhang Jingrui didn't come, and who was the champion named Xue Mingyu, why he had never heard of it, and when he saw the scene behind, he instantly understood.
Xue Mingyu and Zhang Jingrui turned out to be a master, but this master doesn't seem to be very old, he is dressed beautifully, and he is also handsome, but he looks younger than Zhang Jingrui.
A figure in the crowd squeezed to the back, looked closely, trembled, almost fell, and was held by the person beside him.
"How is he? How is this possible? ”
This person is none other than Zhu Xiaochang who Zhou Heng is looking for, and the man who was holding Zhu Xiaochang next to him saw Zhu Xiaochang's expression, and he didn't need to ask to know that Zhu Xiaochang knew this person, so he hurriedly leaned over and asked:
"Zhu Gongzi, who is this person, he taught two people, one is the champion and the other is the leader, this is also incredible?"
Zhu Xiaochang pursed his lips and controlled his emotions, there were many people at this time, if he had a seizure, it would be really embarrassing to get home, he gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.
"He's Uncle Zhongyuan!"
The man paused, blinked and instantly thought of who this person was, raised his hand and pointed in Zhou Heng's direction in surprise.
"Oh my God, this is the Zhongyuan Uncle of the Heavenly Evil Lone Star, he actually has such an ability, I knew that we also joined his disciples, and he wouldn't be on the list today!"
The two of them had a lot of voices, and the people around them were attracted to them.
"Do you know this Xue Mingyu?"
The people around shook their heads, and the man who was chatting with Zhu Xiaochang hurriedly pointed in the direction of Zhou Heng and said:
"That car should be Uncle Zhongyuan, you see Zhang Jingrui is not kneeling on one side, and the other teenager is Xue Mingyu, right?"
Suddenly, everyone looked over, looking at the emotional expressions of the two after kowtowing, for a while, these people were indescribably envious, not to mention kowtowing a few heads, even kneeling in front of Zhongyuan Bo every day, so that they can also be champions, or enter the first class!
"By the way, isn't Uncle Zhongyuan a doctor, a doctor has such ability?"
The kid who was chatting with Zhu Xiaochang rolled his eyes and looked sideways at the person who was talking.
"Doctor? Which doctor have you ever seen become an uncle? Saved the Queen Mother, and Concubine Shu, needless to say, these are nothing, have you heard of the Peach Blossom Fan and Journey to the West, as well as the popular poetry collections in the capital, but they are all from the hands of this Zhongyuan uncle! ”
The man behind kept inhaling, and the kid continued:
"I heard that the poems in that poetry collection, ten of them, were written by Zhongyuan Uncle when he participated in the banquet of the prince's mansion, each of which is well-known, and it can be said that it is a poem that has survived through the ages, I think at least we should be glad that if Zhongyuan Uncle participates in the imperial examination, there will be nothing to do with us!"
After saying this, everyone kept nodding, Zhu Xiaochang's face became even darker, and the kid who was gushing on his side had already left everyone behind, and strode towards Zhou Heng.
He fell off the list this time, but he was not sad at all, after all, he was still young, how could he easily let go of such an opportunity to get to know Zhou Heng, and thinking of the relationship between Zhou Heng and Zhu Xiaochang, he also wanted to avoid Zhu Xiaochang, so as not to harm the pond fish.
Seeing that kid running forward, many people behind him rushed over, and Hulala directly surrounded Zhou Heng's carriage in the middle.
The smile on Boss Xue's face was quickly put away, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he directly copied a stick tied to the side of the carriage, and looked at everyone with a wary face.
Zhou Heng looked confused, the two people on the ground had already gotten up, and when they saw them coming up like this, they were also a little trembling.
After all, there are only four of them, this black pressure is a bunch, let alone more than a hundred, Boss Xue can fight again, if these people pounce together, it will be enough to choke.
The kid tidied up his clothes, hurriedly walked to Zhou Heng, bowed down, and took out something similar to a post and handed it to Xue Mingyu, after all, he was the closest to this kid, Xue Mingyu glanced at Shen Congwen written on it.
Hurriedly handed over the things to Zhou Heng, and the kid said:
"Raise your son Shen Congwen, I have seen Uncle Zhongyuan, my father is Uncle Yongchang Shen Conglin, I have always admired Uncle Zhongyuan's poems, today I heard that your disciple was admitted to the top two in the first class, I am really envious, Congwen has a reluctant invitation, I want to worship Uncle as a teacher, I don't know if it is possible?"
Zhou Heng was stunned, blinked and suddenly reacted, these people didn't come to make trouble, but wanted to follow the apprentice?
After saying that, Shen Congwen had already knelt down, waiting for Zhou Heng's reply in an orderly manner, Zhou Heng was a little nervous, and waved at Shen Congwen, if this is to accept apprentices, at least you must educate well, you can't be free-range like Mingyu, that won't achieve this effect.
"Shen Gongzi, you get up and speak first."
Shen Congwen didn't force it, this thing also depends on fate, so he quickly got up from the ground and stood aside.
Zhang Jingrui hung one hand on his neck, at first glance, the injury was not good, his affairs are full of people in the capital, no one knows, if Zhang Jingrui and Zhongyuan Uncle have intersections, that is, this month after treatment, a month can make a person who falls off the list directly hit Tanhualang?
What kind of means is this?
Zhou Heng smiled, "What you talked about just now, I heard it, Zhou is a doctor, and he doesn't want to do anything to be a teacher, please go back!" ”
As soon as these words were said, a group of people stopped doing it, and they didn't accept apprentices, but Zhang Jingrui and Xue Mingyu were standing here, these two could accept it, why couldn't they collect a few more?
Hula, the encirclement has shrunk a little, after all, looking at Zhou Heng, he doesn't have any temper, these people are also bold, who doesn't want to win the championship in one fell swoop and become the top in the next palace exam, this temptation is too great.
Boss Xue didn't see it well, so he quickly grabbed Zhou Heng's belt and lifted the person directly onto the wheel of the carriage.
Zhou Heng looked at these students, and his face was a little unbearable, after all, he couldn't see the way out at all.
"Okay, be quiet, you can't solve any problems that you have come over like this, and the two of them are not taught by Zhou alone.
If you are interested, you can go to Beishan in winter, where the new Beishan Royal Academy will be built, and the arithmetic, poetry, strategy and other subjects will be taught in a unified manner. ”
Saying this, these people began to talk about it, and that Shen Congwen hurriedly bowed to Zhou Heng.
"The student made a note that he would go to Beishan to inquire later, so he won't bother here."
Saying that, the first one got out of the way from the front of the carriage, and then those people hurriedly got out of the way, and a road that was not wide appeared in front of him, Zhou Heng had already sat in the car, although he didn't say much, he had a good impression of the kid in front of him, and bowed his head slightly.
Mingyu and Zhang Jingrui hurriedly jumped into the car, Boss Xue pulled the reins of the horse and walked outside, Zhou Heng pursed his lips, approached the two, and said in a low voice:
"Did any of you see Zhu Xiaochang just now?"
Zhang Jingrui pointed in the direction of the Gongyuan and said:
"He was standing with Shen Congwen just now, and then this Shen Congwen came over, and Zhu Xiaochang still stood there and didn't move?"
Zhou Heng waved his hand and quickly explained:
"I don't want to see this person, I look at what he does, he is not beautiful, I want to know if he is on the list, these people flocked to him just now, I didn't see it clearly at all!"
Zhang Jingrui shook his head, "I really don't know about this, but it doesn't matter, the good news will come to the door in a while, just ask them directly." ”
"Annunciation?"
Mingyu leaned over, with a surprised look on his face, as if he didn't know the procedure at all, Zhou Heng probably knew what it meant when he heard it, and hurriedly knocked on the carriage.
"Brother Xue, let's hurry up, send Zhang Gongzi back first, and then we will go back to Zhou's mansion."
Zhang Jingrui pointed to the crowd behind him and said, "I can't go, my scholar is still waiting for me there, what should he do if I leave?" ”
Zhou Heng waved his hand, feeling that this thing was not fake and stupid, but really unbright, and raised his hand to pat Zhang Jingrui's head.
"Stupid, it's more important to receive the good news, hurry up and give your father the good news, that kid naturally knows how to go home."
Speaking of this, Zhang Jingrui's eyes were a little red, and he nodded vigorously.
"Well, I listen to my master!"
The carriage soon came to Zhang Zhongtang's house, Zhang Jingrui got out of the car, and Boss Xue hurried away without stopping.
Zhang Jingrui looked at the direction of the carriage, bowed respectfully, saw the carriage disappear at the intersection, turned around and walked towards the mansion gate.
The corner door of Zhang's mansion was closed, and he raised his hand to slap the corner door hard, and then kicked two feet, and shouted with one hand on his waist.
"Are they all dead people, hurry up and open the door for Ben Gongzi!"
