Chapter 377: Just do what Jingyuan wants

These last three days were a nightmare for Zhang.

A group of examiners ran around in front of Sun Dan's examination room, and from time to time let out a low exclamation, which made Zhang Xuan's heart "chaotic" anymore.

At the beginning, he was stunned by Sun Dan's method of doing three eight-strand essays at the same time, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

When he finally calmed down and wanted to go back to the question, he couldn't catch up with his thoughts.

Whenever this happens, Zhang Xuan will use meditation to adjust his state, and when his heart is empty, his brain will become flexible. Immediately let myself get excited, and then I took advantage of this emotion to do the question.

Speaking of which, Zhang Xuan is a very emotional person, although he is talented, he is easily affected by external affairs and cannot concentrate. According to modern people, Zhang Xuan has a little attention deficit syndrome, which is commonly known as ADHD.

His "problem" was very prominent when he was a child, and later when he got older, he became a university scholar with his outstanding wisdom. It's just that his "fault" disease made his fate bumpy in his early years, whether it was a boy test or a township test, it was very laborious. The last time I tried it, I actually lost my name to Sun Shan.

Unexpectedly, he found a monk and learned a method of cultivating qi, and then gradually gained a bit of calmness.

I thought that Jinke would be able to take advantage of this to become a jinshi no matter what, and he was also full of confidence in this.

But who would have thought that the yin and yang were wrong, and he actually became the opposite of Sun Dan, and in the past few days, he has also been disturbed by Sun Dan's "sass".

So, Zhang Xuan sat on the bed and began to nourish his qi, this sitting was an hour, only to feel that his whole person was like a cup of empty teacup, he stood up, was about to take a deep breath, and then began to answer the question.

However, at this time, Sun Dan began to write poems on the wall.

Immediately afterwards, a large group of examiners came over to watch, and whispered non-stop.

It is said that the examiners are also measured, although they are amazed, the sound they make is small, and it will not alarm the other candidates.

It's a pity that Zhang Xuan took Sun Dan as the goal of catching up, and he was extremely concerned about Sun Dan's every move.

Although their voices were small, they fell into Zhang Xuan's ears word for word.

also asked him to memorize all the poems that Sun Dan had done in the past few days.

Sun Dan's poems are naturally extremely exquisite, and Zhang Xuan is also a knowledgeable person, and his heart was suddenly shocked, and he was shocked by Sun Dan's poetry to the point that he couldn't breathe.

"I think I, Zhang Zhang, also boast of being the world's first-class talent, but Sun Dan's poetry and drama, I can't write it anyway."

"This kind of poetry, not only Zhang Xuan, but also afraid ...... I'm afraid that there is no one in the world who can compare with him. ”

As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Xuan only felt that all thoughts were lost, and he sat firmly on the chair like a nightmare, and his mind was full of Sun Dan's poems flying and whirling.

At the beginning, he also tried to write a poem with the same title based on the topic that Sun Dan had done. But no matter how he pondered it, compared with Sun Dan's poems, it was as ugly as Dong Shi's imitation, and it was intolerable.

Later, as Sun Dan made more and more poems, Zhang Xuan, like Zhao Jian, gradually became numb.

In the past three days, Sun Dan wrote all three walls of the examination house, and copied a total of hundreds of poems. It can be said that from the Middle and Ming Dynasty to the late Qing Dynasty, everything that can leave a mark in the history of literature has been swept away by him.

And in the past three days, Zhang Xuan could only sit in the ocean of poetry in a daze, like a flat boat, up and down in the torrent stirred up by Sun Dan, until his soul was sent to Gao Tianyun by the torrent, and he could no longer find it.

His mood also changed from dissatisfaction at the beginning, to depression, then to death, and finally to the groundlessness.

I have to admit that in terms of talent alone, Zhang Xuan ...... It's not as good as Sun Jingyuan! ”

It wasn't until the third afternoon that Zhang Xuan woke up from his ignorance of not eating or drinking.

Only then did he suddenly realize that there were only two hours left before the paper was handed in.

Zhang Xuan couldn't care so much now, so he hurriedly picked up his pen and wrote nonsense. Writing it down in one go, Zhang Xuan didn't know what he had written, anyway, he relied on a trace of instinct to support it.

When the last word is finished, it is also time to hand in the paper.

Like an old man in the twilight, Zhang Xuan slowly put the "hair" pen on the table. At this time, he realized that his eyes were already covered with eye droppings, and his hands were rough like old tree bark.

He poured himself a bowl of water, and was about to quench his thirst, but a haggard face was reflected on the water, and a handful of beautiful black beards had turned white.

Then, a few tears fell, shattering the old man's reflection.

"This lesson, I, Zhang Zhang, am finished, no matter how lucky I am, I am just a fellow jinshi." After Zhang Xuan finished crying, his heart was empty: "Could it be that Sun Dan has become a proverb, I, Zhang Zhang, have never had the opportunity to enter the Hanlin Academy in my life, and I have no chance to enter the cabinet."

Recalling that day, when Sun Dan failed in his calculations, so that when the big eagle and the little eagle were wiped out by Sun Dan, Huang Jin used foul language in his mouth. Zhang Xuan didn't think that he could have any status in the system of Concubine Zhang and Huang Jin as a mere fellow jinshi.

That day, Huang Jin spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm at himself fiercely, and scolded: "Rotten Confucian, rotten Confucian, you hurt my big eagle, you are a fucking waste, you are good at talking big, you really got started, a pustule." Get out, get out of here! ”

Zhang Xuan is a famous person, and he has always been flattered by "Mr. Luo Feng", when did he ever suffer such anger.

He also thought that if he could take the Jinshi exam, he would even be able to win this breath back in front of Huang Jin.

However, looking at the current situation, it is too late.

To tell the truth, Zhang Xuan doesn't blame Sun Dan, his poems are so wonderful.

To be able to see such verses, even if you can't get into the jinshi, it's good.

After handing in the papers, Zhang Xuan suddenly settled down and smiled bitterly: "Maybe I, Zhang Zhang, used to be really eager for fame, and always wanted to take shortcuts, so that I was humiliated in the hands of villains, this can't be blamed on Sun Dan, if you want to blame me, Zhang Xuan can't stand my heart." Well deserved! ”

Anyway, this year's exam is finally over, and even more so for Zhang Xuan. Although there is still a palace test in the future, Zhang Xuan does not think that he is qualified.

After handing in the papers, it was time to line up, which took a little longer.

There were already a lot of people in the small square outside, and some of the candidates after the curtain came out of the curtain were crying, laughing, making trouble, and a few were happy and a few were sad.

In the crowd, Zhang Xuan spotted Sun Dan, who seemed to be about to come up to pick up his carriage.

Zhang Xuan stepped forward and suddenly gave Sun Dan a deep look.

Sun Dan hurriedly returned the salute: "Why is Mr. Zhang like this? ”

Zhang Xuan: "Zhang Xuan can be the same year as Jingyuan, it is indeed my luck, if you have time, let's make an appointment with the place to talk." ”

Sun Dan smiled: "That's what you mean, if you are free, wait for everyone to recover in a few days, let's go to Baiyun Temple to read Dao Zang." ”

Zhang Xuan nodded: "Just do what Jingyuan wants." ”
