In the entire noodle restaurant, the atmosphere was surprisingly quiet, and Chu Lian saw that the guests had been driven away by Ye Mingming, and her pretty face showed a rare anger.

Then he walked over with a light lotus step, and said very coldly: "Ye Gongzi's behavior like this, isn't it ruining the source of the little woman's customers?" ”

"Chu Lian, you know how I know you, why do you have to dip your ten fingers in the yang spring water, and go back with me to enjoy the servants' service, wouldn't it be better?" Ye Zhizhi said with a bitter persuasion.

But Chu Lian didn't seem to appreciate it, and then responded coldly: "Chu Lian is a dusty woman who doesn't dare to climb high, and I hope that Ye Gongzi will pity the little woman, don't come here again in the future, so as not to disturb the guests......"

"Huh! I said that you are a woman who really does not know how to lift up, and the wise brother looks up to you so much, which is a blessing that you cultivated in your previous life, what is your intention to behave like this? Li Mo on the side really couldn't stand it, so he slapped the table and was a little angry.

Ye Mingzhi pressed the angry Li Mo beside him, and asked Xiang Chulian with a strange expression: "Isn't my heart for you clear enough?" ”

"I'm sorry! Hatsulian is really ......"

"Enough! You say, is it because of him? Ye Mingzhi saw that Chu Lian insisted on not accepting him, and then he couldn't hold back the anger in his heart anymore, and pointed to Ye Yu, who was drinking tea on the left, and scolded.

"No......" Ye Mingming's questioning made Chu Lian's expression obviously flustered.

"Not? If not, why don't you agree to my redemption for you, but you gladly accept his redemption for you? If not, why is the noodles made in your noodle shop called lotus leaf noodles? Hum! I don't think the word 'leaf' in this lotus leaf refers to my Ye Wise! ”

Chu Lian didn't know what to say when she was questioned, she lowered her head and prepared to flee from the wilderness, but Ye Zhizhi grabbed the jade arm, and said with jealousy: "After so long, you still miss this wild seed, but people refuse to accept you this!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Ye Yu, who was sitting on the left side drinking tea, looked cold, and then the teacup slammed on the table, and the tea splashed all over the table.

"Palm!"

The voice was low and cold, and She Dongcheng, who was standing behind him, didn't say a word, and rushed out with a single arrow step. When Ye Mingming reacted, he grabbed Chu Lian's right arm and had already twisted it.

As the pain came from his right arm, he suddenly felt a blackness in front of him, and then he felt a numbness in his mouth.

Bang Bang Bang!

Three times in a row, and just three mouths have almost dislocated Ye Mingming's cheeks. When Ye Mingming felt pain, She Dongcheng had already stepped aside.

"You! You...... How dare you hit me! ”

Ye Mingming covered his mouth, the pain was unbearable, and his speech was slurred. But Fang Cai's anger was gone, replaced by a terrible fear.

"Hit you? If I hadn't promised someone not to punish you severely, I'm afraid your little life would have been gone! If I hear something I shouldn't hear again, I Ye Yu can't guarantee that one day I will make you dumb! ”

Ye Yu's voice was very soft, but the threat in it made Ye Mingming not feel stunned for a while. But Li Mo held a folding fan in his hand and said with anger: "Ye Yu, you hurt people in public, don't you know the royal law?" ”

"Wang Fa?"

As soon as Ye Yu heard these two words, he immediately laughed, and he glanced up at Li Mo: "You talk to me about the royal law?" Then let me ask you, this person has ever talked about the royal law when he enters the store to greet customers? Regardless of the reason for the misdeeds of the shopkeeper, have you ever talked about the royal law? Speaking to slander others, have you ever talked about the royal law? ”

"This ......" Ye Yu's three consecutive questions made Li Mo suddenly dumbfounded, and then forced himself to calm down; It's just not right to hurt someone! ”

"That's right, it's not right, but if this person makes a mistake first, even if he goes to court, Ye will only pay some money for the soup and medicine......"

Speaking of this, Ye Yu set his eyes on Ye Mingming's body, and asked with a sneer: "I don't know how much Ye Dashao needs?" A hundred taels, or a thousand taels? If this matter can be calculated based on the cost of the decoction and medicine, Ye is willing to pay 100,000 taels for the decoction and medicine, and let my brother slap his mouth a hundred times! What do you think? ”

began to hear that Ye Yu was going to accompany the soup and medicine fees, and Ye Mingzhi also planned to take the opportunity to blackmail Ye Yu. But when he heard the latter words, he suddenly extinguished this thought.

Just three slaps have already loosened his sore teeth. If it is a hundred times, will it not be unrecognizable, seriously injured and disabled?

"Good! Good for you...... Ye Yu! , you just rely on me to be not famous, so you tease me like this. Wait for me to become famous in today's scientific examination, see if you dare to be so arrogant! ”

"Then I'll wait until you pass the exam......"

Ye Mingzhi is right, whether it is a person or a jinshi, as long as he is famous, he has certain privileges. There are special cases of going to court without kneeling, and there are also provisions of the Criminal Law that cannot be used until the charges are clear.

Now although Ye Mingming's family is wealthy and he has studied in the academy for a few years, he is still a white man. Therefore, Ye Yu teaching him at this moment is of a different nature from teaching a person.

"I heard that you are also going to participate in this scientific expedition?" As soon as he talked about the imperial examination, Li Mo asked Ye Yu with great interest.

"Not bad!"

After Li Mo got the answer, he laughed: "Enke, although there is a special order not to restrict students with disabilities, do you really think that you will be treated fairly for disabled people like you?" ”

"It doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, does it? Besides, a person who has failed the list, are you qualified to say the word fair? ”

Ye Yu unceremoniously retorted, and when Li Mo heard the word 'off the list', his face was even more ugly, because this was the scar he was most unwilling to unravel.

As the third person in the last session, he went to Beijing to take the exam, but unfortunately his name fell to Sun Mountain. In the past, the lifters who were ranked after him were all admitted to the Jinshi. This has to be said to be an extremely interesting irony, and it also made him unable to raise his head for most of the year.

At this time, the guy Xiao Meng walked in from the back hall with a plate, and then put the hot noodles in front of Ye Yu, and said earnestly: "Guest officer, try it!" ”

Ye Yu nodded and smiled at his buddy Xiao Meng. Then seeing that Li Mo and Ye Mingming had no intention of leaving, he immediately waved his hand to the two of them and said in a deep voice: "Get out, don't disturb my noodle-eating Yaxing!" ”

The two wanted to refute it, but when they saw She Dongcheng waiting for them viciously, they forced their anger and threw their sleeves away.

Tasting the delicious noodles, Ye Yu did not forget to enjoy them to himself, and called She Dongcheng to accompany him to eat noodles. It was also because he had followed Ye Yu for a long time that She Dongcheng did not shirk too much, so he sat aside and ate the second bowl of noodles.

After the two of them finished eating, they paid for the noodles, and Ye Yu said solemnly to Chu Lian: "Miss Chu Lian, the world changes, many things are not static, Ye is not suitable for you!" Find a good family and get married! This also broke Ye Mingming's thoughts! ”

The first love lowered his head and was silent, and Ye Yu could tell from the frequency of breathing that this was a silent sob. But in the matter of feelings, no feeling is no feeling. Even if you are as beautiful as a flower, it is difficult to change this fact.

He Ye Yu is not a big stallion, all women come and do not refuse, this is not his pursuit, let alone his taste. So for the girl in front of him, he could only regretfully leave his back behind.

Ye Yu's departure didn't bother anyone, but it hit Chu Lian's heart like a hammer, looking at Ye Yu's departing back, she couldn't help but shed two lines of tears.

……

The imperial examination system of the Song Dynasty was divided into three levels of examinations: state examination, provincial examination, and palace examination, but there were many kinds of examination subjects, which can be roughly divided into two types: Jinshi and Changke.

It is stipulated that during the state examination, the general judge of the state shall preside over the examination of the Jinshi subject, and the examination of other subjects shall be presided over by the state record of joining the army. Candidates who were admitted to the state examination were gathered at the Provincial Ministry of Rites in Shangshu Province in Beijing during the winter.

The imperial examination system developed to the Song Dynasty and was greatly improved compared with the Sui and Tang dynasties. In order to put an end to the phenomenon of bribery and fraud, we are also constantly improving the malpractices in the imperial examination.

For example, the establishment of a system of obfuscation and transcription has curbed fraud to a great extent.

However, no system can be perfected, no matter how perfect the imperial examination system is, it is not as strict as the supervision of the Ming and Qing dynasties and even the college entrance examination in later generations. But so what, the current situation of fraud in the examination room is still repeatedly prohibited. For today's Great Song Dynasty, bribery and fraud in the imperial examination are naturally unavoidable.

However, this time Enke is obviously very beneficial to Ye Yu, although the current Chuzhou general judgment is no longer Liu Quan, but the new general judge Fan Chengda, Ye Yu knows a lot. Among the four great poets of Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, in addition to Yang Wanli, Lu You, and You Yuan, it is the famous Fan in history.

This person is quite famous in history, and his style of acting is also different, but his integrity in his life has been highly respected by later generations. Therefore, the impartiality of this person who presided over the state examination is trustworthy.

On August 9 of this year, more than 1,000 students from the examination in the four counties of Chuzhou will gather in the Tribute Institute of Lai'an Mansion in Chuzhou.

Among the more than 1,000 people, there are many people with strange appearances and elderly disabilities, and Ye Yu is also among them......

A row of number houses in the Gong Courtyard, facing the south to form a long laneway, each row of number houses in accordance with the order of "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang, the Universe Flood Wilderness" is named in turn, with the word number, there is a gate at the mouth of the lane, and a certain font number is written on the frieze wall.

After entering the palace, the gate of each lane is locked, and the gate of the Gongyuan is also closed, and the cannon is fired as the beginning of the examination.

The imperial examination in the Song Dynasty basically followed the Tang system, and the Jinshi scientific examination of the scriptures, Moyi and poetry. After the first two exams of this year's Autumn Festival, the last exam should have been a poetry question, but what happened next made the students feel very weird.

"Knock, knock, knock" suddenly sounded after the scene, followed by a drum beat of "Knock, Knock, Knock", and a moment later there was a drum beat.

When the drum sounded three ways, a thin half-hundred-year-old man walked in, this person was wearing an official uniform and was very dignified, it was Fan Chengda, the chief examiner of this state examination.

Fan Chengda inspected every room with a sharp gaze, and finally said in a deep voice to the officials around him: "Distribute test questions!" ”

At the sound of an order, several officials carried the test questions to each candidate's room. But when the students opened the test paper, they found that there was no word on the test paper......
