Early the next morning, as soon as Shen Xi got up, Zhou hurriedly came over and urged: "Hurry up, hurry up, Mr. Feng has been waiting in the main hall for a while, look at your lazy appearance!" ”

Shen Xi got dressed and went to the hall, but he didn't see Shen Mingjun, but Hui Niang came over, obviously Feng Yanqi had something to say in front of Hui Niang and Zhou.

"Shen Xi, these articles of yours are eclectic, and that's all the teacher teaches you on weekdays?" Feng Yanqi's face was gloomy, obviously because Shen Xi made a fuss with his mind and angered him.

Although Feng Yanqi is flexible in teaching and pays attention to teaching according to his aptitude, he cannot accept some blasphemous remarks...... Zhu Xi is another great sage after Confucius and Mencius, and what he said in this era is a wise saying.

Shen Xi looked at the puzzled eyes of the old lady and Hui Niang, hurriedly lowered his head, and explained in a low voice: "Sir, I just thought of something...... Just write anything. ”

Feng Yuqi slapped the paper with Shen Xi's article on the table with some annoyance, and said angrily: "If your kind of article is changed to a few decades ago, don't say that if you don't win a single session, your lifelong future may be ruined." Even if you put it in the present and the matter is publicized, your future road to the imperial examination will be extremely difficult. ”

Shen Xi made an appearance of being humbly taught, and he still respected Feng Yanqi very much. Feng Huaqi is not an old stubborn like his enlightenment teacher Su Yunzhong, his teaching philosophy is similar to him, and this lesson is also based on facts, without any personal prejudice.

Hui Niang asked in surprise: "Sir, what is the problem with the article made by Xiaolang?" ”

Feng Huaqi didn't know how to explain it, because although the study of mind started in the Northern Song Dynasty and Lu Jiuyuan in the Southern Song Dynasty opened its door, it has not yet formed a formal school, and the academic community is constantly brewing, Feng Huaqi doesn't know how to explain it, but sighs: "Among the three articles of Shen Xi, two are very good, and the probability of Zhong Xiucai is very high, but it is the most critical first article." Saying something that shouldn't be said may affect his future. ”

Hui Niang seemed to understand and nodded.

Zhou was there with his fingers tugging at three articles. There are two good articles, so even if the first one is a little worse, the impact should not be very large, and the probability of the son of Xiucai is still quite high, why does Mr. look so serious?

Feng Yan said to Shen Xi in unison: "In the past few days. If you can pass the first scene, you must not do such rebellious words. Otherwise, even I, a gentleman, won't be able to teach you! ”

After speaking, Feng Yanqi got up and left, and Hui Niang and Zhou hurriedly sent each other. When the two of them came back, Shen Xi sat on the chair and looked at his article in a daze.

Hui Niang frowned and said, "Xiaolang, you make it clear, what's wrong with the article you made?" ”

Shen Xi asked rhetorically, "Aunt." Shouldn't you ask Mr. Feng first? ”

Zhou scolded: "Bastard, if there is an article that can't be done, if you don't do it, what kind of article did you write to make Mr. Feng so angry?" ”

Shen Xi really couldn't explain it to the two women.

Or he only hates that he was born thirty years early, and if he writes such articles after thirty years after the study of mind has been widely carried forward by Mr. Yang Ming, not only will no one teach him, but he will praise and praise him. Now even his husband is not optimistic about him, or he can really go back and prepare for the hospital examination in two years.

Because Feng Huaqi specially confessed to let Shen Xi study behind closed doors. Originally, Zhou was also going to let Shen Xi relax after the exam, but at this time he could only lock him in the study.

However, Shen Xi was not in much of a mood to do academics, but wrote his "Golden Vase Plum" seriously.

Shen Xi writes very fast, a hundred times of novels. He plans to write the book in about 30 chapters first, showing a rough plot outline, and gradually polishing the book in full.

This is also a marketing strategy, once the complete "Golden Vase Plum" is written, there is no possibility of the second and third editions later, and the private scribes will dilute the profits of the printing workshop. Not to mention that there are three or four book printing workshops in the small Tingzhou Mansion alone, and without copyright protection, printing books is not a difficult task in these years.

Two days later, on the release day, Shen Xi was allowed by his family to go out to the Confucian Education Department to see the case.

Zhou specially explained that no matter whether Shen Xi passed the first game or not, he would come back early, and verbally promised to let Shen Xi rest for a few more days before going to the school.

Shen Xi thought he could let go.

He has been a human being in two lives, and now he is a young man, so there is no need to be in a hurry about fame, but when the case comes, Shen Xi is still a little nervous, after all, it involves fame and fortune in this life, if he can still hold a normal heart at this time, I am afraid that he has really become a great sage with the highest nature.

Today's official case was officially reported at two o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Xi arrived outside the Confucianism Department, and there were too many candidates guarding in front of the bulletin board, and Shen Xi couldn't squeeze in, so he had to look away and stop and watch from afar.

Shen Xi's eyes wandered around the crowd, but he didn't find a familiar figure, so he simply sat on a big bluestone on the side of the street, and waited for fewer people in front of him to go over. At this time, a person came over and arched his hand to Shen Xi: "Shen Gongzi, I hope you and I have a fate, see you in the examination room tomorrow." ”

It was Wu Xingyu with an arrogant face.

In the past, Shen Xi didn't feel anything when he saw this young and ambitious young man, but now when he saw Wu Xingyu, he found that this guy was a little stinky and coaxing. Looking back, after people are eunuchs, there is nothing wrong with having conspicuous capital.

Wu Xingyu was polite, and Shen Xi couldn't slack off, and after getting up to return the salute, the two didn't even say a word or two, and Wu Xingyu was in a hurry to see the case.

In the midst of a thousand calls, the official came out with two pieces of paper and pasted them on the bulletin board outside the Confucianism Department, and the students immediately surrounded them.

Shen Xi looked at this posture, and didn't want to squeeze to the front for half an hour.

At this time, there was a commotion in the crowd.

"Oh, I didn't get it, and in two years, my youngest son is about to take the county exam......"

"This is also a scholar, so many people have been selected, why don't you consider my article? The article I have done this year has been fantastic. ”

"Wonderful? Mine is better than yours, isn't it not on the case? ”

"It's hard to pass the first try, Brother Cheng Nian, let's find a place to have two drinks?"

"Do you still have the heart to drink? I have to retake the test tomorrow, the time is urgent, and it's not too late to drink after the students, are there fewer times you and I will return after the case? ”

……

Miscellaneous voices are intertwined, fully expressing the sophistication of people outside the field.

Different from the county examination and the prefectural examination, the children in the examination institute are mainly men in their twenties and thirties, and there are not a few in their forties and fifties, and there are very few young people like Shen Xi who have not yet started a family.

These people dedicated their lives to the imperial examination. Just waiting for Zhong Xiucai to step into the scholar class, although Zhong Xiucai can only go to the school to be a gentleman at most, if he doesn't manage his family well, he will still be in trouble, but at least their status in the clan will improve a lot. At the same time, he is respected by his neighbors.

Shen Xi sat there thinking for a long time, and suddenly there was an exclamation in front of him, and Shen Xi was still a little puzzled at first, and when some candidates came back from the front, some people couldn't wait to gloat: this college examination was listed as the head of the sixteen county examinations for escort students. There are actually three people who fell off the list!

This is the first time in the past twenty or thirty years that Tingzhou Mansion has experienced that the county head must pass the practice of showing talents, which was actually broken by Liu Bing, and these three "quasi-talents" who failed to make the list are already impacting the Confucian Department of the government, ready to find Liu Bing inside to settle accounts.

Taking advantage of the noise of the crowd, Shen Xi stepped forward and carefully examined the two pieces of paper, and to his disappointment, sure enough, there was no seat number on it. This means that he is not off the list.

Sure enough, you can't write a book and make a statement when you write an eight-strand essay in the exam......

Wu Xingyu never left, after seeing Shen Xi, he arched his hand, with a little smugness in his expression, the corners of his mouth turned up, with a hint of mockery, as if to say: "Sample, you haven't passed the first scene, but I have passed." ”

"Get out of the way. You want to make trouble, don't you? Liu Tixue doesn't live here, he wants to make trouble and go to the post house, see if you have the ability to dare to storm the post house and cut you with a knife! The official scolded and came out. What made the candidates present extremely excited was that the official was actually carrying the third piece of paper in his hand.

At this time, the three county leaders who made trouble in front of them no longer quarreled, and they thought the same as most of the candidates present: "It turns out that there are more than 100 people in the first examination, and there are superfluous, then we must be on the third paper." ”

Although the rule of the first session of the college examination is to take double the number of students admitted to the final examination for the second re-examination. But there is no exact regulation that it must be a double integer, and it is possible to have a few more people or a few fewer people, but in the end, the admission of Xiucai must be the specified number, and one person cannot be more and one person cannot be less.

The third piece of paper became the hope of most of the people present, and some of them who had already left sadly, heard that there was still a third piece of paper, and they all hurriedly squeezed back, wondering if they were on the list.

But after the paper was pasted on the bulletin board, everyone present was in an uproar, and there were only a few words on the third piece of paper: "A No. 1." ”

This is a special test number, the top 10 of last year's government examination was exactly ranked in the top 10 of the word A, and the top 10 of the school test this year was ranked in the top 10 of the word B. Then this "No. 1 Jia" is the head of the first year of the government test, and the head of the ten-year-old government case in the past two years, Shen Xi, who caused a sensation in Fucheng.

"Why do you record him alone? Could it be that he has a relationship with the government? ”

Some people are already dissatisfied.

If you want to record, you can record a hundred people, and now the third case paper is out of thin air to give people hope, but in the end, there is only Shen Xi on the third case paper, isn't this obviously playing with people?

Especially the three county leaders who failed to make the list have quit again, we are the county test leaders, and according to the rules, we are already waiting to go to school to be a showman, why should we be deprived of our qualifications to show talents?

A group of people were messing around in front, and Shen Xi slipped out of the crowd with his head down. With the experience of making trouble after the last time the examinee made trouble after the government test issued a long case, Shen Xi knew that he was very easy to be the target of attack.

Although he himself didn't know why he suddenly had a third case paper, and only one more person was admitted, at least this shows that he has not yet fallen off the list, and there is still a chance to be admitted to Xiucai this year.

Even if Shen Xi slipped away quickly, he was the target of everyone after all, and he couldn't escape the tracking of those who had a heart. Just when someone was about to come over and grab Shen Xi and question him, Su Tong and Zheng Qian stopped in front of Shen Xi with a few people, Zheng Qian pointed to the candidates who were tracking over and shouted, "What? To hit someone, or to be beaten? ”

Su Tong and Zheng Qian brought a lot of people, and several candidates were so frightened that they quickly turned around and squeezed back into the crowd, and then Su Tong came over and said, "Brother Shen can be regarded as a dangerous pass." ”

Shen Xi smiled, he didn't say anything, but he thought in his heart: "Do you still need to say this?" ”
