"I really didn't expect that Brother Zhao was hiding deeply!"

Unlike Shen Bocheng, in a wing room in the backyard of the inn where the students of Changsha Mansion were staying, Fang Yun was slightly surprised at first after learning the results on the list, and then shook his head and smiled, not too surprised.

In fact, when Zhao Xin single-handedly broke into the inn where the Changsha Mansion students stayed to ask for help from the Changsha Mansion students and went to Wuchangwei to support Li Hongyu, Fang Yun knew that Zhao Xin was not an idle person.

What's more, these days, Fang Yun has been with Li Hongyu because of the Mingyue Pavilion case, and the longer he stayed with Li Hongyu, the more surprised he was to find that Li Hongyu's scheming was far superior to him, and he had actually sorted out the context of the Mingyue Pavilion case in a short period of time, which really made him feel admired.

As the saying goes, people gather by like, and things are divided by groups, in Fang Yun's opinion, Zhao Xin and Li Hongyu are friends who have been in prison together, so Zhao Xin is naturally a very powerful rising star.

"Brother Fang, we have nothing to say if the head of the Li case can win the Xie Yuan, after all, he is the head of the Xiangyang Mansion Tong Examination and has also taken a small three yuan, and his strength is here, but how can this Zhao Xin He De actually get the sub-yuan, it is really unconvincing!"

Although Fang Yun thought that Zhao Xin deserved to be admitted to the Huguang Township Examination, the other Changsha Mansion students in the room did not think so, and soon those students who were gathered together to discuss surrounded him, and one of the students said quite unwillingly.

"There's got to be the inside story!" The surrounding students echoed the words one after another, and they all looked angry.

In the eyes of these students in Changsha Mansion, even if Fang Yun couldn't pass the exam to Xie Yuan, he would definitely be a sub-yuan, but he didn't want Fang Yun to be squeezed into third by Zhao Xin, just a Jing Kui.

For other students, it is already a great thing to be admitted to the Jingku, but for Fang Yun, who has high hopes from everyone, failing to pass the exam Xie Yuan and Ya Yuan means failure.

"Brother Han, what do you think of this?" Glancing at the indignant Changsha Mansion students at the scene, Fang Yun smiled slightly and asked Han Tai who was sitting on the chair next to him quietly.

Although Fang Yun only took the third place in the township test this time and was just a Jingkui, Han Tai was admitted to the sixth place and became a Yakui, so that Changsha Prefecture, which was concerned by the outside world, accounted for two of the top six Changsha Prefectures in the township test, which can be regarded as completing the expectations of the outside world before the exam.

"Ladies and gentlemen, whether Zhao Xin's Asian dollar is genuine or not, we will see you at the Luming banquet tomorrow." Han Tai smiled when he heard this, put down the teacup in his hand and comforted everyone, "If Zhao Xin's Yayuan is not worthy of his name, I think it will be difficult for you to raise your son at that time." ”

Hearing this, the Changsha Mansion students at the scene calmed down, and discussed this matter in groups, for the sake of fairness, the examination papers of the middle and high school students will be announced, otherwise there is a suspicion of black-box operation, which is a crime that no one can bear.

However, the examination papers published at that time were only copied versions, and the actual examination papers had to be filed by the Tibetan Yamen.

The only exception is the top six examination papers in the township examination, which will be announced at the Luming banquet, and will be tasted by those new imperial examinees to see if they live up to their name.

Since the top six exam papers have been screened and selected layer by layer, the examiners are not worried about any trouble after the exam papers are published.

In fact, in the eyes of the outside world, the overall quality of the candidates for the Huguang Township Examination is higher than that of the previous session, taking Hankook as an example, he was the first in the last Changsha Futong Examination, the first in the scientific examination, and the odds of Xie Yuan ranked second that year.

If Hankook participated in the last Huguang Township Exam, then even if he couldn't pass the Xie Yuan and Ya Yuan exams, then he should be ranked among the top of the Five Classics.

It's a pity that Han Tai's luck is really bad, he originally chose the "Book of Changes" as his scripture like Fang Yun, after all, the "Book of Changes" in the "Five Classics" in Changsha Mansion is popularly studied, and the highest achievement in the Huguang realm.

Therefore, in order to win the Jingkui, Hantai had to avoid Fang Yun, so he studied "Spring and Autumn" for the past two years, hoping to become the Jingkui of the "Spring and Autumn" in the Huguang Township Examination.

As a result, Hankook's choice order happened to bump into Li Hongyu, and he missed out on Jing Kui, only ranking sixth, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful in his heart.

Looking at Han Tai, who was quite high-spirited, Fang Yun's brows furrowed slightly, to be honest, of course he didn't want to believe that the Mingyue Pavilion case was related to Han Tai, but now he had to believe it in the face of a lot of evidence.

According to what Fang Yun now knows, since the death of Han Tae's fiancée, Han Tae, who was originally studying in Changsha Prefecture, suddenly began to make friends, first with scholars from the county where his fiancée was, and then with students from surrounding counties.

When Han Tae met Xu Tao and stopped making friends and returned to Changsha Mansion to study, Fang Yun was even more convinced that Han Taok was the murderer behind Xu Tao's murder.

Secretly, Fang Yun couldn't help but sigh, although Han Tai was triumphant now, he probably wouldn't be able to laugh again in the afternoon.

According to the agreement between Li Hongyu and Fang Yun, after the results of the township test were announced, the two began to lobby the people who were raised in the middle of the competition, and re-mentioned the case of Mingyue Pavilion at tomorrow's Minglu banquet, and then made the governor order the Wuchang Mansion to re-interrogate.

Lee House.

"Medium...... Hit, young master! When Li Hongyu and Zhao Xin were fighting on the chessboard, a man ran into the courtyard door from the outside, panting, and shouted to the people in the living room as he ran.

"Hit!" Hearing this, Qin Yue, Rou'er, Li Hongqing and others in the room suddenly showed happy expressions, and it was obvious that Li Hongyu had been admitted to the Juren.

"How many did the young master take the exam?" Waiting for the subordinate to run into the living room, Li Hongqing hurriedly stepped forward and asked loudly.

"...... Clause...... First. The subordinate didn't have time to take a breath, and shouted emotionally, "The young master is the Xie Yuan of the Jinke Township Test!" ”

"Xie Yuan?" Li Hongqing was stunned for a moment, and then his face was overjoyed, and he excitedly shouted at the people outside the door, "What are you doing in a daze, hurry, let off the firecrackers, and tell the neighbors that our young master is admitted to the Yuan!" ”

Hearing this, several people standing at the door hurriedly picked up the firecrackers that had been prepared, and ran out of the courtyard gate with a smoke, and soon there was a crackling firecracker sound outside the courtyard gate, which was very festive and lively.

"Brother Li, Xiangyang Mansion has not produced Xie Yuan for more than fifty years, and this time our scholars can finally raise their eyebrows in front of the scholars of other state capitals!"

Qin Yue, Rou'er, Li Hongqing and others congratulated Li Hongyu on his entrance examination, Zhao Xin put down the chess pieces in his hand, and arched his hand to Li Hongyu with a smile and said.

"Brother Zhao, it's just a fluke in the next, if you can solve the yuan in the next, Brother Zhao will definitely be among the top five." Li Hongyu smiled and bowed back to Zhao Xin, and then asked the subordinate who was standing there gasping, "How did Zhao Gongzi do in the exam?" ”

"Back to the young master, Zhao Gongzi won the Yayuan exam, and Yang Gongzi took the fifth place in the exam!"

The subordinate had already gasped for breath at this time, and said to Li Hongyu excitedly when he heard the words, "We have three of the five classics in the township test in Xiangyang Mansion, which is something that has never happened in our Huguang since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. ”

"Three of the Five Classics?" Hearing this, except for Li Hongyu and Zhao Xin, the people in the room showed surprised looks.

You must know that the Kui of the Five Classics is the leader of each of the "Five Classics", that is, the first place of each Classic, because the Ming scholars only need to learn one of the "Five Classics", so they will choose one of the "Five Classics" as their own scripture to study, and the other four classics are not proficient.

In the beginning, students from all over the world would randomly choose one of the "Five Classics" as their own scripture to study, but as time went by, there would be some people who had excellent research on the "Five Classics", which was called the Jingyi Master.

As a result, the local scholars were influenced to study the "Five Classics" to which the scriptures belonged, and then the phenomenon of regional learning of one of the "Five Classics" was formed.

For example, scholars in Changsha were good at the Book of Changes, students in Wuchang were good at the Book of Songs, and students in Xiangyang were good at the Book of Songs.

In other words, according to the normal situation, the five Jingkui of the township test will come from five different state capitals, and at most there have only been two Jingkui belonging to the same state capital, and three Jingkui from the same state capital, not to mention Huguang, that is, looking at the Ming Dynasty, the two capitals and thirteen provinces have not happened.

Therefore, Xiangyang Mansion won three of the Five Classics in one fell swoop this time, which is really a big surprise, and no one could have imagined that such an unbelievable thing would happen beforehand.

In a house in Wuchang Mansion.

Yang Renxiao sat on the chair in front of the window with some distraction and flipped through the books in his hand, waiting anxiously for the announcement of the results of the township examination, he had never been so nervous as he was now.

Of course, Yang Renxiao is not worried about winning the move, what he wants is to defeat Li Hongyu in the township examination, and if he wants to defeat Li Hongyu, then he must win the top of the "Shangshu" in the township examination.

Although Li Hongyu chose the question of "I Ching" to answer the question during the children's examination, Yang Renxiao thought that Li Hongyu had reservations, after all, the requirements for the "Five Classics" during the children's examination were not high, and the main test was the foundation.

However, the township examination is not as good as the children's examination, facing the candidates of the entire Huguang and the acceptance rate is extremely low, and the slightest carelessness may fail the list.

Obviously, Yang Renxiao thinks that Li Hongyu definitely wants to get a good score in the township examination, and the Wujing Kui will undoubtedly be Li Hongyu's goal, because only by passing the Wujing Kui can he become Xie Yuan and Yayuan, which is what all the township test scholars dream of, and Li Hongyu will definitely not give up.

Therefore, in Yang Renxiao's view, Li Hongyu will definitely do his best in the township test, Xiangyang Mansion Shilin respects the "Book of Changes", he does not believe that Li Hongyu will choose the "Book of Changes" in the township test to fight with Fang Yun to the death, after all, Changsha Mansion Shilin respects the "Book of Changes", and the study of the "Book of Changes" can be described as perfect in Huguang.

Therefore, it is difficult for Li Hongyu to defeat Fang Yun, who is not inferior to him, and he will definitely choose "Shangshu" to take the exam, so that the two will have a duel in one time.

"Childe, congratulations on your laurel title and passing the Jingkui exam!" Just as Yang Renxiao was thinking nonsense there, a subordinate ran into the door excitedly and congratulated him with a smile on his face.

Yang Renxiao's body suddenly stiffened slightly when he heard this, and then a look of surprise appeared in his eyes, and he forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, looked at the subordinate and asked in a deep voice, "How did Li do in the first exam?" ”

"Hui Gongzi, Li won the Xie Yuan of Jinke, Zhao Gongzi won the Yayuan, and our Xiangyang Mansion accounted for three of the Five Classics this time, which caused a sensation in the entire Wuchang City!" When the subordinate heard this, he immediately smiled and replied excitedly.

"What...... What the? Yang Renxiao was stunned when he heard this, his face was full of shock, and his face was incredulous, could it be that Li Hongyu defeated Fang Yun on the Book of Changes? But what happened to Zhao Xin, which of the "Five Classics" did she choose in the township test.

For a while, Yang Renxiao's mind was full of doubts, and he couldn't accept what the subordinate said.
