Chapter Eighty-Nine: Issuing the List
Zhao Yan and his entourage came a little late, and the front of the Gongyuan was already crowded with people who couldn't enter the sea, and among these people, there were only a few people who came to see the list in person, and most of them were relatives or servants who came with them to catch the exam.
If they come in person, it is better to say that in the end, if they don't win, wouldn't it be very faceless? So most of them are anxiously waiting for news in their places of residence, but they can't help but let the people around them come to see the list instead of them, hoping to get the news as soon as possible.
Zhao Yan and his entourage saw that they couldn't squeeze in, so they had no choice but to stand outside the crowd and wait for the list to be released.
This waited until almost noon, fortunately the weather was not hot at this time, but there was a little more dust, and as soon as the light wind blew, someone wiped his eyes with his sleeves, making his eyes red, but he still forced himself to look at the door of the Gongyuan with wide eyes, and couldn't stop muttering: "Heavenly Spirit, Earth Spirit, Amitabha Buddha, Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, Taishang Laojun, Buddha Rulai, bless the students must be in the ...... this time"
'Squeak', the gate of the Gongyuan was finally opened from the inside, when a few sergeants came out first, after converging the sergeant who maintained order in front of the door, they waved the jujube stick in their hands and began to drive away the crowd that surrounded the crowd, and there was a sudden burst of chickens and dogs jumping in front of the Gongyuan gate.
There were several scribes standing inside the door, they looked at the chaotic crowd outside the door with a smile, and only raised their feet to cross the threshold after there was an open space in front of the door, and then several people cooperated and pasted the first yellow paper on the wall, which was the famous gold list.
Seeing that the list has been released, most people immediately flocked forward, wanting to see if they or their own Langjun were on the list for the first time.
Zhao Yan and his entourage were on the outside of the crowd, seeing the crowd in front of them, and some people were even squeezed to break their heads, and they suddenly lost the motivation to move forward.
Only the top 150 were selected in this test, after the first gold list was posted, the second and third were posted one after another, the words on the list are not small, even if Zhao Yan is standing at the back of the crowd, and the list is seven or eight feet away, he can vaguely see some easily recognizable words.
In fact, how did they do in the exam, most candidates still have a bit of a spectrum in their hearts, and the number of admissions for the exam is very low, and the matter of the fish leaping into a dragon is only 12/12.
Most of the candidates who did not come are people who are confident in themselves, and most of the candidates who came to see the list in person are a little weak-hearted, and reason tells them that the hope of testing their own exams this time is very low, but they still subconsciously hold a trace of luck, some of them are not psychologically good candidates see that there is really no name on the list, and suddenly the defense line in their hearts collapsed, some sat on the ground and cried, and some were quite crazy and yelled, for these people, the sergeant who maintained order was not the first time to see, I have long been mentally prepared to just set it up and throw it out of the crowd and let it fend for itself.
The reason why Zhao Yan and Zhang Wenyuan came to see the list in person was because they were invited by Wan An, in fact, even if Wan An didn't invite Zhao Yan, he wanted to see the list once, on the one hand, he wanted to see if he was on the list for the first time, and on the other hand, he wanted to feel the atmosphere.
The list of the examination is based on the ranking, the candidate's place of origin, test number, and name are listed on the list, which is to prevent the candidate from having the same name and cannot be distinguished, even if the name is the same, the place of origin is not the same, if the place of origin is the same, then the test house where the exam is located will not be the same.
The list has been released, Zhao Yan's face is silent, like several other people, trying to make a look of Mount Tai collapsing in front of him and not changing his face, but he is quite worried in his heart, he looks at it with great eyes, and wants to see the content on the list, but the distance is too far.
Zhao ...... Brother Zhao Xian, you have good young eyes, and let's see if the fourth place on the last case is my brother's name. Wan An's legs trembled slightly, but behind his hands, he tried to hold his chest up, and said to Zhao Yan dryly.
Hearing this, Zhao Yan subconsciously glanced at Wan An's small eyes that were shining, and then looked at the list posted at the end according to Wan An's prompts. Just like this award in later generations, the highlight is put at the end.
There are a total of three lists, the first list is the first case, there are a total of 90 people on it, the words on this list are the smallest, the names on the list are all the top three, the second list is fifty people, the size of the words is moderate, except for the seven people at the end of the list, the rest of the people are the second class, the last list is the top ten in the test, the word is the largest. Of course, there is a discrepancy between the ranking of the examination and the final ranking of the palace examination, but only the rankings of the top ten have changed, and the rankings of the remaining second- and third-class jinshi have actually been determined after the examination, and everyone knows this.
Only Zhao Yan only focused on the first two lists, and he felt that he would not be able to enter the top ten no matter what, so the top ten lists were ignored by him intentionally or unintentionally. At this time, Zhao Yan subconsciously looked at who the first place was, Peng Shi? It's a little familiar!
Zhao Yan looked at it in turn, the second place Yue Zheng, I haven't heard of it, the third place Chen Jian, still has no impression, and the fourth place Wan An ......
Zhao Yan turned his head to look at Wan An beside him, and finally discovered the excitement hidden behind his old face.
Your sister, my brother already knew that you old boy would be admitted this time, but my brother was not excited, you were so excited that you wanted your brother to praise you? Forget it, just praise it, if you fall in love with Wan Guifei in the future, if you don't follow my brother, my brother will not be finished with you.
Zhao Yan gritted his teeth secretly, and read word by word in his mouth: "Fourth place, Sichuan Meizhou, Bingsi, Wan'an, oops, Brother Wan, congratulations, first place in the second class, you have won!" ”
Wan An, who was overjoyed, didn't hear the perfunctory words of Zhao Yan at all, he had already seen his name, but if he said it by himself, it would inevitably be a little unbeautiful, and he picked Zhao Yan, a little brother who looked quite clever, to cover for himself.
"Congratulations, congratulations, the title of the gold list of ten thousand brothers, Feihuang Tengda is just around the corner."
Several people next to him said hello, but there were a lot of perfunctory words, and they said congratulations in their mouths, but their eyes couldn't help but look in the direction of the list.
Wan'an has some city government in the end, and while he is happy in his heart, he also perceives where everyone's thoughts are, and he has the heart to comfort one or two, but he doesn't dare to say too much, otherwise he will have the meaning of showing.
"The foolish brother of several virtuous brothers knows it, and it will definitely be on the list, this time the foolish brother is lucky to come out on top, this is luck, and it is still unknown after the palace test."
Everyone knew that Wan An was modest, but he also accepted his favors, and after saying a few words, seeing that the number of people in front of the list was scarce, Liu Jue should step away first, Liu Ji, Yin Min, Zhang Wenyuan and Zhao Yan followed, Wan An immediately followed, he fell many times, and he knew all kinds of feelings in his heart after falling, and at this time he was already thinking about how to comfort someone if he fell later.
After coming to the bottom of the list, everyone began to look back and front with the same thoughts, and several people looked very seriously, lest they miss something.
Zhao Yan glanced at ten lines, his mind turned quickly, and suddenly saw a familiar name - Yin Min, and then glanced at the ranking, the top three and forty-two, turned his head to look at Yin Min, and saw that he was looking at the list with blank eyes, and he didn't know if he was distracted.
"Brother Yin, you have won, the top three forty-two." Zhao Yan stretched out his hand to point him, Yin Min looked at Zhao Yan's fingertips, and was immediately overjoyed, and then he didn't know what he remembered, but his eyes slowly turned red.
Wan An has experience, and when he saw this, he hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him not to be too excited, Zhao Yan was too lazy to listen to what they said, and turned his head and continued to look at the list at a glance.
As soon as he was delayed, Liu Ji, Liu Jue and Zhang Wenyuan were already watching faster than Zhao Yan, Zhao Yan had no distractions, and he finished reading the first list in an instant, and then moved to the second list. ”
Liu Ji's ranking is 25th in the second grade, and Liu Jue is 34th in the second grade, and the difference between the two rankings is no more than 10 places, and the relationship is not bad at the moment, but I don't know why they will part ways in the future and become political enemies.
The two of them were too loud, close to Zhao Yan, such a fork, Zhao Yan was inevitably affected by it, and he watched it more slowly, but Zhang Wenyuan has been quietly watching the list on the side, his mentality is the best, not arrogant or impatient, the best in the middle, not in the next test, at this time, I suddenly saw the second class eighteen written there is Zhili Zhending Mansion Shenzhou, Ding Hai, Zhao Yan, I can't help but be happy in my heart, seeing that Zhao Yan's eyes are still on the list, he patted Zhao Yan's shoulder, and said with a smile: "The second class eighteen, Brother Zhao, congratulations on the title of the gold list!" ”
Hit? Zhao Yan also saw his name, hometown, and exam number on the list, all of which were his own, so he was not wrong, he traveled back to the Ming Dynasty hundreds of years ago, and he really passed the Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty! It's a pity that there is no camera at this time, otherwise it would be nice to have this glorious moment forever.
Smacking his lips, Zhao Yan looked up regretfully, but found that the eyes of the people around him were quite strange.
"Brother Zhao Xian, how old are you now?" Wan An rushed to ask this sentence in front of everyone, although he and the rest of the people were amazed that Zhao Yan had won all the way and passed the county and township tests one after another, but the meeting test was very different from the former, which of the reference was not the best among the people, and there were few of these people for ten years, so it was not that they looked down on Zhao Yan, but they really didn't expect this little brother to really pass the test.
Zhao Yan was stunned, if he was counted according to this body, he was already eighteen years old in this era, and he had crossed over for ten years of orthodoxy, and now it was thirteen years of orthodoxy, and he had come to this era for three years unconsciously.
"The younger brother Xuande was born in five years, and now he has spent eighteen years in vain."
The eyes of the people around him are a little straight, and they are wasted? What's your tone of voice? Eighteen-year-old high school apricot list, can be described as a precedent, you still have a shy expression, modesty is not so modest, okay, what should you do if you let me wait for thirty or forty years old to pass the exam? It's infuriating!
"Hehe, Brother Xian is really ...... is really a young man, winning without arrogance and defeat without resentment, young and old, and has a bright future. Wan An said a perfunctory word, and he felt that his heart was a little painful.
"Yes, yes, young Junjie, young Junjie." The crowd around echoed.
Zhao Yan felt that he had been soaked in a vinegar jar, and there was a sour smell around him, he was happy in his heart, and he was not without pride in private, but he still had to make a light breeze mixed with a little ashamed expression on his face, and he had to have a beginning and an end to being a man.
