In the past, candidates came to speculate on Ji Ning's articles, and they could only learn through rumors and their own speculations, but now they are finally fortunate to see Ji Ning's articles.

As soon as it was hung up, a group of scholars surrounded it, and a voice came from the crowd: "What bullshit article, it's nothing more than that!" ”

I'm afraid that this person didn't even see what Ji Ning wrote, so he came to demean it first, this is also the fearless spirit of the ignorant, and his opinion cannot be agreed with this time.

Many scholars, even if they are not accustomed to Ji Ning's talent and learning, and are jealous of Ji Ning's achievements, when they see Ji Ning's wonderful articles, they will also feel ashamed of themselves, and the more highly educated people are, the more they can appreciate the advantages and strengths of Ji Ning's articles, and the more they know that this kind of article cannot be written without extremely high attainments. In surprise, these people read Ji Ning's article over and over again, hoping to find some of Ji Ning's shortcomings from the text, but Ji Ning would not give them this opportunity.

"Who still hasn't learned from Ji Jieyuan?" The deacons of the Tribute Court shouted loudly.

At this time, there was no sound in the crowd, and many people found that they were not good at learning after reading it, and they went home with their tails between their tails and continued to study hard, striving to be able to pass the next township test, and those who had not read Ji Ning's article clearly in the back were desperately squeezing forward, these people were thinking: "No one is the first and there is no second, no matter how well an article is written, there will always be omissions, and it is not easy to find faults?" ”

But when they carefully read Ji Ning's article and appreciated the flowing article, they were speechless. Ji Ning's article, it is very difficult to find faults, and the bachelor Guo Ling only made a "slightly biased" argument, the bachelors of the Confucian Temple can't find faults, and a few students who haven't even been admitted to the exam, no matter how high their talent is, can they compare to Guo Ling?

"How can there be such an article, I can't even find fault with it, this word, this word is poorly written, I write better than him!" Someone started messing around.

The deacon said angrily: "There is no other target, what hangs out is not Ji Jieyuan's handwriting, do you mean that Lao Tzu's handwriting is ugly?" ”

The man looked at the deacon's face, and walked away in a huff, so that the two articles that were hung up could not get the slightest slander in the mouth of a group of people who had opinions about Ji Ning, which was equivalent to acquiescing that Ji Ning's articles were excellent.

"Xie Yuangong, please get on the sedan chair, and the little ones will carry you back!" Yacha will also start to come over to talk to Ji Ning.

Ji Ning saw that Tang Jie, Han Yu and others were all in the distance, so he was naturally not busy returning home, and waved his hand and said: "You have to work with you, I am going to meet a few friends next, thank you for your kindness!" ”

"Where did Xie Yuangong say, you have an order to say it, or we can carry a sedan chair to follow you, when you want to take a sedan chair, we will serve you before and after the saddle." It was not easy for a few yacha to have the opportunity to tie up with Xie Yuan, and this Xie Yuan was also appreciated by Princess Wenren, maybe when he will become a nobleman, if he doesn't stammer now, he won't have a chance in the future.

"Thank you." Ji Ning saluted again, "I'm still used to walking!" ”

Surrounded and protected by the yacha, Ji Ning walked outside the crowd and met with Tang Xie and others.

Tang Xie and the others knew that Ji Ning's position had passed the review, and the first thing they did when they stepped forward was to congratulate them.

"A few brothers, don't have fun, it's better to find a secluded place to talk." Ji Ning was physically and mentally exhausted at this time, and it was almost sunset and dusk, he just wanted to explain the situation to Tang Xie and the others, and he was going home to rest.

In the past few days, he has not rested well in order to bribe the examination case, and now he has finally left his body, and now he is waiting to set the name of the text in the Confucian Temple, and then he is ready to pack his bags and go to the capital next month to prepare for the examination.

Tang Xie also mentioned this matter: "It is rare that several of us have already passed the examination, and now it is not far from the examination in February next year, I hope that in the coming year we can also take the Jinshi examination together, become famous among the princes, and have some ambitions!" ”

The words are beautiful, but many things are not as simple as Tang Xie thinks.

There are thousands of people who take the Jinshi examination every year, and two or three hundred people are admitted to the Jinling Township Examination, and the Yongchao of the whole University is equal to admitting four or five thousand candidates. However, the number of candidates admitted to each session of the examination is only about 300, which means that the admission rate of the examination is only 2% at most, and the possibility of several people being admitted to the Jinshi at the same time is too low to be negligible.

But there is hope, it is always good, it is as if Tang Xie and Han Yu have already taken the examination once, but in the end the name fell to Sun Shan, this is the second time that Tang Xie and Han Yu have tried the examination, according to the age of Tang Xie and Han Yu, they can take the exam for about four or five sessions, and they will give up participating in the examination, accept the release of the imperial court with peace of mind, and become a local official. But Ji Ning's goal is very simple, he must be admitted to the Jinshi within one or two sessions, he doesn't want to learn and take the exam like some students, then it will really become an exam machine.

……

……

Tang Xie and the others were going to invite Ji Ning to Tianxianglou for a banquet, but Ji Ning was physically and mentally tired and wanted to go back to rest, but Tang Xie and the others didn't force it.

Ji Ning returned to the door, as soon as he knocked on the door, the door opened, and a little girl came out of the door and went directly into Ji Ning's arms, sobbing delicately: "Young master......"

"It's okay, little silly girl, am I not coming back?" Ji Ning smiled and touched Yu Ling's head.

"Hmm." Yu Ling nodded slightly, "I have prepared grapefruit leaves and brazier for the young master, the young master first crossed the brazier, and then went in to bathe with the grapefruit leaves. ”

Ji Ning thought to himself, he didn't come out of prison, so it was a bit too cliché to do this.

But since it was specially prepared by Yu Ling, he didn't refuse, and did as Yu Ling ordered, Yu Ling said: "Young master, the slave serves you to bathe......"

"Don't worry, I'm hungry now, do you have anything to eat?" Ji Ning's biggest sin now is that he hasn't eaten for a day, Yu Ling then thought that her young master would go out without eating in the morning, she trotted all the way to the kitchen and brought over the meal prepared by Ji Ning.

Ji Ning said while eating: "It's still Xiao Yuling's craftsmanship is good, young master, my mouth is good." ”

"Young master, if you welcome your lady into the door in the future, maybe the slave and maid will not have the opportunity to serve you." Yu Ling's expression was a little downcast.

When a little girl begins to grow up, she understands one thing, that is, if a girl wants to be good to a man forever, she can only let a man accept her, but she is just a slave, and it is impossible to be a respectful husband and wife with Ji Ning, even if Ji Ning is willing to want her, Ji Ning will be laughed at, unless Ji Ning's wife is good to her in the future, and will propose to accept Ji Ning as a concubine in the room, this possibility is not high, because the ladies who pass through the door have their own maids and maids, and for those ladies, the maids of the maiden family are the closest, The maid on the husband's side is always going to get married.
