Chapter Twenty-Six: Spirited on the List
There are 12 bulletin boards about two people high in front of the Tai Academy, of which the list of martial arts exams is on the left, the list of literary exams is on the right, the last ten bulletin boards are used to post the list of second-class candidates, and the first two are used to post the list of first-class candidates.
The crowd had already crowded the streets in front of Taixue, and more than 5,000 scholars were bustling to get ahead, for fear of missing the moment when the list was released.
"The list of martial arts exams is out!" A sharp-eyed person saw more than a dozen people coming out of the Tai Academy, all holding a red list, and there were people holding a "martial arts list" sign behind them.
"Where? Where is it! Don't squeeze me! ”
The candidates rushed up one after another, without the slightest elegant image of a scholar, moving their hands and feet, scrambling to look at each other to see if there was their own name.
The people of the academy slowly posted the list, and then used a brush to outline the word Wubang on the list.
"It's out!"
The scholars looked closely, and more than 5,000 pairs of eyes searched carefully on the list, trying to find their names.
If you don't find your name in this list, then most likely you will be cut off from the college, after all, the admission rules of the four first, eight and second are there.
"Military theory, first place: Zhang Ge, second place, Fang Wenshan, third place, Beigong Boyu... Seventh place: Rong Jingfan, tenth place, Chen Yihan..."
"The dead fat man who often peeks at other people's baths is actually the third place, and he still has a good name?"
"The daughter of the Chen family actually took the first place, although it was only the tenth place, but it was also the first class... Wait, look at the riding and archery list, the daughter of the Chen family actually won the first class, and she is really a woman. ”
"Most of the people on this list are children of the family, and it seems that only Rong Jingfan has won the first one."
People talked about it under the list, some people were happy and some were sad, some scholars found that their four doors were on the list, and they cheered happily, many scholars cast envious eyes at him, and some people had one or more doors that were not on the list, and bowed their heads gloomily.
But when they were done looking for themselves, they set their sights on the top of the list to see if there was a name.
It is rumored that this Yunjiang did not participate in the martial arts test, but after all, it is hearsay, and many people are skeptical, and they will wait until today's release to confirm it.
"On this list... It doesn't seem to have the name of Yunjiang.." A child of the family said, with a mocking smile on his face, "I'm afraid I'm not scared." ”
"You!" A humble scholar wanted to refute, but after checking it many times, he really didn't see Yun Jiang's name.
"Yun Jiang really didn't participate in the election of the martial arts test.." Zhang Ge said with regret that he saw Jiang Yun sitting next to the stinky number in the examination room that day, and now he does not participate in the assessment of the martial arts examination, the chance of being admitted to the academy is almost gone, according to the gambling agreement between Jiang Yun and Dongfang Jin, Jiang Yun will inevitably be humiliated, and he will not be able to escape from living in the shadows from now on.
"Wenshan, what do you think?" Zhang Ge looked at Fang Wenshan and asked.
"I can't bear it. It is already admirable to my generation that the humble scholar can have such courage, but the gambling contract has been made, and it has spread throughout the city, and nothing can be changed. ”
Fang Wenshan pointed to Dongfang Jin, who was a little happy over there, "Besides, do you think the son of the Dongfang family will let this Yunjiang go?" ”
Zhang Ge frowned and sighed.
"Brother Dongfang, this time you have a chance to win! I've read all the lists just now, and there is no name of Yunjiang at all, even the last one doesn't exist! Zheng Fei said with some flattery, "This time, Brother Dongfang's reputation will resound throughout Lin'an City!" ”
"Exactly!" Ouyang Feng smiled, leaned over and whispered, "I have already said hello and spread the news, and in less than half an hour, the entire Lin'an City will know about Yunjiang's deeds..."
Dongfang Jin nodded at them, "Yes, you guys did a good job. ”
He looked at the list, "This time, I'm going to tell you to never turn over!" Fight me? ”
Originally, Dongfang Jin was still a little worried, if Yunjiang was really admitted to the academy, wouldn't he have to take off his clothes and go around Lin'an City? But now it seems that this is simply impossible. There is no name on the list of martial arts exams, and if he wants to be admitted to the academy, unless he can get the top four.
But the top four, or the literary examination, is not a dozen people outside the academy for decades, he Yunjiang is just a poor child, can he have this kind of talent?
This gamble is a win!
Under the spread of the heart, everyone present learned the news that Yun Jiang did not appear in any position on the martial arts list. The children of the family cheered, while the children of the poor family were depressed and depressed, sighing.
"Yunjiang is here!" One person shouted, everyone couldn't help but turn their heads to look, four people walked slowly from the street entrance, the first one was dressed in ordinary scholar's clothes, his face was pale, the last two, one was wearing a patch hundred family clothes, one was fat and big-eared, looking at the women around him obscenely, and the last person was wearing coarse linen clothes, which was extremely ordinary.
Some of the children of the family sneered, while Zhang Ge and Fang Wenshan sighed helplessly.
"You're here, I've been waiting for you for a long time." Dongfang Jin put on a smile on his face, but the cruelty in his eyes could be seen by another person, "I'm really afraid that you won't dare to come." ”
"This Lin'an City is very big, do you want me to find a few people to tell you?" Zheng Fei said a strange word, laughed, and immediately a sound of ridicule sounded in the crowd, and the sound of abuse and discussion was endless, and people looked at Jiang Yun with sarcasm and disdain.
"What is the name of the world's cloth! I think you're the one who has lost our humble face! A poor scholar couldn't help but scold, pointing at Jiang Yun is squirting wildly, and he was angry.
Rong Jingfan and Beigong Boyu were about to discuss with these people, but they were stopped by Jiang Yun stretching out his hand.
He smiled, neither happy nor sad, and looked directly at Dongfang Jin, "I don't have anything to fear." And, now I'm not defeated. If you get complacent too soon, it's easy to die too quickly. ”
Jiang Yun was indifferent, and did not fluctuate at all because of this noisy scene, this gesture made everyone present unexpected, and began to speculate some possibilities in their hearts.
"Miss, this Yun Gongzi doesn't look worried!" Xiao Xia saw this situation in the carriage and whispered to Chen Yihan.
"What do you care about him? It's not about me! Chen Yihan scolded Xiao Xia in a low voice, but his hand was holding the curtain, but his eyes glanced at Jiang Yun as if he were nothing.
"Humph! The list is coming out soon, I see how long you can be proud! Dongfang Jin snorted coldly, turned his head and left with Zheng Fei and Ouyang Feng, not wanting to see Jiang Yun again.
At this moment, there was another commotion in the crowd, and the people of the academy came out again, and it seemed that they were going to post a list!
The people who came out this time were no different from the last time, but there were only two more people, who were walking cautiously holding a notice board, looking quite struggling.
Dongfang Jin was a little puzzled, these twelve bulletin boards are the rules that the academy has always announced the list, why did they release another one today, and it became thirteen?
Many people have also noticed this change and have speculated.
After the people of the academy put the notice board in place, a person who looked like a Confucian walked to the high platform, smiled at the more than 5,000 scholars below, and stroked his long beard, "Today's announcement of the literary list has changed, because the situation is somewhat special, so this son will be read out by the old man himself." ”
The person who came was Zuo Yingyun, he glanced around the crowd, saw Yun Jiang standing there, and nodded slightly to him.
Yun Jiang was stunned, and saluted him back, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, looking at Dongfang Jin over there.
Dongfang Jin was also surprised, this person himself is not a stranger, but one of the head teachers of the academy, the famous "chivalrous tenderness", one of the few people in the court who can not only fight on the battlefield but also understand poetry and songs. Now that he has personally read it out, I am afraid that this session has come out with an amazing talent. I don't know why, a name flashed through Dongfang Jin's mind.
"Impossible! When pigs fly! Dongfang gritted his teeth, "It's just a poor kid.."
Zuo Yingyun took out a list, "The examination of the academy has opened our eyes, and your scriptures and literary talents are also rare. And among you, there is one person, with the unanimous consent of the academy and the special approval of the master, and finally has a result. ”
"The academy unanimously agreed, and the master specially approved..."
The originally noisy crowd fell silent, and their hearts were shocked by the weight of these words.
What is the academy, the first academy of Dayan, almost the top talents of the entire Dayan are here, and the teachers are even more one-in-a-million, all of whom have brilliant resumes.
As for the master, there are only four words, "the country's warrior is unparalleled".
The person who can be recognized by the academy and the master is actually by his side?!
The five thousand scholars looked at the people around him with different eyes, maybe the person in front of him was such a god!
"White Deer Academy has been more than 80 years old, counting today's one, only two of them can receive this evaluation."
Shizi quieted down, waiting for Zuo Yingjun to announce this person's name.
Zuo Yingyun smiled slightly, and pointed his finger at Jiang Yun, who was standing silently in the corner.
"Yunjiang, the four questions in the literary test are all "yuan", even the four yuan, the answer paper makes us admire, the master is even more happy to see his examination paper, and he is set as "yuan"! ”
"Yunjiang is the second person to reach the top of the four-yuan in this literary test, in the past 80 years!"
