When it comes to Gu Yuming's affairs, Tang Xie and Han Yu and others are extraordinarily spiritual, but also because Gu Yuming himself deceived the world and stole his name, and wanted to use a poem of unknown origin to act as his own, and he didn't have such a big head and couldn't wear such a big hat, so in the end he could only be exposed by others and ended up dismal.

Xie Tai said: "I can't say for sure, maybe Gu Yuming can perform well in this session?" I heard that Han Hanlin was a candidate for sixteen candidates with the same examiner, maybe Han Hanlin was also his room official and selected him...... At that time, it was really an eye-opener for me and other scholars. ”

Ji Ning asked, "The candidate for the chief examiner hasn't been decided yet, right?" ”

"There is no news for the time being, but there was news before that Shen Daxue, who had just resigned as the supervisor of Jinling Guozi's sacrificial wine, may have become the chief examiner of the Confucian Temple for this year's examination, and Jiangnan Shizi is now looking forward to it, and they are calling on the Confucian Temple to send Shen Daxue Scholar out as the main examiner and become the protégé of Shen Daxue!" Tang Xie looked forward to it, "Yongning, you have a lot of relationship with Scholar Shen, don't you know about this?" ”

Ji Ning shook his head and said, "I really haven't heard that Shigong is going to come out to preside over the exam, besides...... Is it overkill to let the master come out to preside over the examination? ”

"That's not a good thing to say." Han Yu said, "Jiangnan Guozi supervises the sacrificial wine, which is equivalent to the highest scholar in Jiangnan, since the imperial court will inevitably send officials from the north to do the main examination, why not send Shen scholars out of the Confucian Temple?" In Jinling City, many people want to visit Shen University but can't, if you can become a protégé of the Son of Heaven this time, it is equivalent to becoming a protégé of Shen University, whether it is in the imperial court or in the Temple of Literature, there will be a very high barrier in the future! ”

Tang Xie looked at Ji Ning, saw that Ji Ning's attitude was appropriate, and said, "Yongning, Scholar Shen came out to preside over the examination, and I see that you are not too attentive!" ”

Ji Ning shook his head with a smile and said: "Whether or not the master presides over the examination, I have to rely on my own knowledge to gain fame, this examination is only the first examination I have participated in, it is the best to have a good performance, even if the performance is not good, there will be a chance in the future!" ”

Han Yu praised: "Okay, Yongning's attitude is really good, but ...... Yongning, don't say that there are some things that are embarrassing for you, since the Confucian Temple has asked Shen Daxue to come out for the main examination, and Shen Daxue will go into hiding, many people are asking about you, you are now a very famous person in the capital. There are a lot of protégés of Shen University, but if you talk about people who have a deep relationship with him, you Yongning can also be in the forefront, in the end, you are the son of Shen University's proud protégé, and you have also received his teaching, do you know how much the odds of Zhonghuiyuan have risen now? One to four, the entire capital, you are the highest! ”

This made Ji Ning smile bitterly.

He just came out to participate in the examination, and before he could wait for anything, he was praised as the person who was most likely to become the first person in the examination, which is a bit of a joke, after all, he didn't have any performance in the capital, and if he talked about performance, he also performed well in the Jinling Township Examination.

Ji Ning said: "Is it too unreasonable to directly set such a high tone?" I may not even be able to take 300, and now I am determined to be the best candidate for Huiyuan, is this what others say, the higher you climb, the worse you fall? ”

"Yongning, don't be discouraged, this is not a scholar Shen to support you, now the people in the capital want to invite you to participate in the cultural meeting, many people who have never understood you before, and they also want to take advantage of the entrance examination to get closer to you, and I also know that you don't like such and such entertainment, we just sorted out some invitations for you, you choose by yourself, we will not interfere!"

After Tang explained, he handed a large stack of invitations to Ji Ning, which was somewhat similar to the situation when Ji Ning first arrived in the capital, but Ji Ning felt that he was being put on fire now.

"I know." Ji Ning took all the invitations, but he didn't look at them, because he didn't plan to participate in these literary meetings at all, "If it's okay, I'm going to go back to Wen Shu first!" ”

"Okay, everyone, let's disperse first, Yongning is leaving, we should almost go back, we will have time to get together again in two days, basically until the beginning of February, all the examiners and fellow examiners will be decided, then you can discuss the temperament of these examiners, and it is easy to make more appropriate articles!" After Tang explained, he went down to the restaurant with everyone.

Before he could get into the carriage, he saw a group of people coming from the opposite side.

Tang Xie said angrily: "I really don't see you when you look up, this capital is too small, you can actually meet a shell mantis wherever you go!" ”

The person who came over on the other side was none other than Qin Feng, Wu Bei and others, and these people seemed to have also come to drink.

In the past, when Qin Feng and the others saw Ji Ning, they must have come forward to mock it, after all, it was the predecessor Xie Yuan and the current Xie Yuan, it can be said that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, Qin Feng felt that his limelight was robbed by Ji Ning, and he was always angry, and even the matter of Ji Ning first competing for the Oiran in Tianxiang Building and then returning the silver was taken by him everywhere to detract from Ji Ning's reputation.

But this time, Qin Feng obviously didn't mean to embarrass Ji Ning, and even pretended not to see it after taking a look, and went directly into the wine shop.

This time, Tang Xie was not so easy to stop, and said angrily: "This is not Qin Da Xie Yuan?" Why, didn't you say last time that you wanted to spend ** with Miss Liu, but you got your wish? ”

Before, Qin Feng and Wu Bei wanted to pretend that they didn't see it, but now that Tang Xie had opened up the contradiction, they had to come over. Qin Feng squinted at Ji Ning, and bowed slightly: "Young Master Ji, it's been a long time!" ”

There was a bit of politeness in the words.

"I can't stand it!" Ji Ning returned the salute.

Tang Xie smiled: "Looking at Qin Jieyuan's appearance, most of them are eating behind closed doors with Miss Liu, right?" ”

Qin Feng said: "I don't want to pay attention to some small people talking nonsense on the side, I heard that Ji Jieyuan's master is going to preside over the examination, congratulations, it seems that the probability of the Jinshi in Ji Jieyuan has also increased greatly, but congratulations first, before the exam, a candidate for Jinshi has been laid!" Now who doesn't say that among the tens of thousands of people waiting to take the exam in the capital, the happiest is Ji Jieyuan, because there is no need for the exam, as long as there is a good teacher, you can be a jinshi? ”

Qin Feng's purpose in saying this was to provoke Ji Ning, but obviously Ji Ning wouldn't care about his nonsense.

"Does our Brother Ji have a good teacher, what does it have to do with you? Besides, which of you heard that Shen University Scholar will definitely come out to preside over the examination? Han Yu retorted.

"Everyone in the world says that it is just waiting for the Temple of Literature to be finalized. Look at the students in the capital now, who is serving Ji Ning's talents? I thought I was so great and complacent! Hmph, even if he is selected in the examination, it is not completely impossible for him to lose his name in the final palace examination! Qin Feng said sharply.

(It's been changed, ask for all kinds of support.) ）
