Although there were many Huizhou scholars like Wang Fulin who got up early in the morning and went to the gate of the Gongyuan to wait for the release of the list, more people were still reluctant to go there to get together, but pretended to wait in the Xin'an Guild Hall. After all, this place is very close to the Gongyuan, but if someone is lifted, the newspapers will definitely come to report the good news as soon as possible. So, Cheng Naixuan found that Wang Fulin and Xiaobei were nowhere to be seen, although he muttered and complained, but he still went to chat with a few students from She County to pass the time. Even if everyone is actually anxious, they all pretend to be calm and idle, and even set up a chessboard to fight in turn.

But this kind of battle is often a faint move, and when the good news gradually comes one by one, they can't sit still even more, and they can no longer care about any manners, and they get up and go to the lobby outside to wait for the good news. As the newspapers rushed in with joy, shouting who had won the first place, the lucky ones were naturally overjoyed and shouted for rewards, and those who did not wait for the news for the time being continued to wait there as if nothing happened. When Cheng Naixuan waited for a newspaper to report the good news to him and Wang Fulin together, he only felt relaxed and waved his hand, and even gave Wang Fulin's share of the reward.

At this time, Wang Fulin was not righteous, and all his little dissatisfaction was thrown out of the clouds, he only knew that he didn't have to continue to be stubbornly dragged by those two gentlemen to continue to do eight-strand essays every day! He completely forgot that he still had to take the entrance examination next year, and after running back to report the good news to his wife, he came out in high spirits, only to find that the talents waiting in the lobby in front of him were whispering.

He remembered that when he went in to report the good news to his wife, there were nearly a dozen good news coming one after another, which was not inferior to the number of people in the six counties of Huizhou in previous years. See that the situation is different. I couldn't help but grab a familiar Xiucai and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Just reported the eleventh place. But Wuyuan's Jiang Da talent is still on the list, and Wuyuan's gang is a little breathless. After all, since Jiang Wenming fell off the list six years ago, he deliberately didn't take the exam three years ago, and worked hard to hone his article making skills, and he didn't get out of the top three in the two annual exams, and he was almost arrested by the Dongcheng Terracotta Division before, if he fell off the list again. That blow would be too big! Although he is not used to seeing Jiang Wenming's Qinggao, the Shexian Xiucai who is speaking at this moment is quite sympathetic to people. After all, with only the former Yayuan Xie Yuan left, he didn't think that he could perform so well in this township test, and most of them also failed the list.

Cheng Naixuan thought about it, and couldn't help but feel that he was in his heart: "The road of the imperial examination can really grind people to death, I think that when the chief examiner Geng supervised Nan Zhili, he founded Chongzheng Academy and personally accepted Jiao Hong, the great talent of the academy." He was raised at the age of twenty-four, and he took care of almost all the affairs of Chongzheng College. Even those famous Confucians in the southeast said that his academic articles were impeccable, and even such ones would fail three times in a row, let alone others? ”

Just when a fifth-place Yayuan had been reported before, the person in it was ecstatic, and many people in the lobby were sorry and emotional, suddenly I saw four or five newspapers dressed in red and colorful directly break in, and shouted loudly when I looked around: "Which one is Master Jiang Wenming Jiang of Wuyuan County, Huizhou Prefecture?" Congratulations to Mr. Jiang for the first place in the undergraduate township exam! ”

As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the lobby, followed by an exclamation full of endless joy. However, the next moment was followed not by laughter and congratulations, but by a flurry of shouting. Cheng Naixuan found that the scene was chaotic, and couldn't help but wonder a little, so he hurriedly hurried forward in three or two steps, only to find that Jiang Wenming was lying upright on the ground, his face was pale, and he fainted! Startled, he hurriedly ordered someone to ask for a doctor, but he didn't care about 3721, and after helping the person up slightly, he directly pinched Jiang Wenming's people with his thumb. He was extremely ruthless, and in a moment, he only heard an ouch.

"Okay, okay, finally wake up! Thanks to Cheng Gongzi! ”

Several newspapers all knew that they would give Xie Yuan the good news, and they would definitely get the most reward, so they rushed to the Xin'an Hall. Finding that the main owner was so happy that he fainted, they were all shocked, and when they saw that this person who was called Cheng Gongzi by the surrounding Xiucai immediately saved the person, they were relieved, and they hurriedly gathered around to ask for a reward. Cheng Naixuan saw that Jiang Wenming was still a little confused, so he simply ordered Mo Xiang to pay for the reward, and when these newspapers finally dispersed in a chaotic manner, and all the talents around him surrounded him, he asked: "Brother Jiang, I have already asked people to ask for a doctor, are you okay?" ”

Since arriving in Nanjing, the golden powder land of the Six Dynasties, Jiang Wenming's heart can be said to have reached the peak for a while, and the bottom for a while. He relied on the sponsorship of the Xin'an Guild Hall for food and drink, high prices, and shyness, after participating in the poetry society and literary meeting, he could no longer afford anything, he could only watch other fellow villagers wander around, and he was scorned and cold-eyed by the gentlemen outside, so he cynically ridiculed those rich merchants, but he didn't expect to be almost arrested by the Dongcheng Terracotta Division to get into a lawsuit...... At this moment, a Xie Yuan fell from the sky and smashed his head, he only felt that the whole person was a little groggy, and he didn't know how to answer Cheng Naixuan's words.

"Let's send Brother Jiang back to the room first! The solution of this subject fell on our Huizhou Mansion, but you can raise your eyebrows, Brother Jiang, you must take care of your body! ”

Hearing the voices all around, Jiang Wenming suddenly thought of something, and after being helped up, he subconsciously grabbed Cheng Naixuan's sleeve: "What about Brother Wang Xian?" I want to thank him! ”

If he really gets involved in the lawsuit of this arson case, he will definitely be questioned countless times even if he understands the yuan...... No, as long as the fellow examiner in the Tribute Academy gets this news, he won't give him Xie Yuan at all, and maybe even the fame of the people will be in vain!

Finally, I still know that I am worried about Wang Fulin to save you!

Cheng Naixuan muttered in his heart, but he was not the kind of person who liked to care, and immediately smiled: "That guy Shuangmu is probably going to Gongyuan Street to see the list, Brother Jiang, you know Yuan, he must also know, and he will be back in a while." On this list, our Huizhou Mansion won a Xie Yuan, and there are so many people, it seems that it is determined to win the jackpot in Nanzhili, Brother Jiang, after you go back, the celebration banquet will definitely be held. You don't have to worry about anything else. Let's take care of your body first! This time, everyone has to make an appointment to meet the teacher. If you are sick, won't you let people gossip behind your back? ”

Jiang Wenming let go of his hand at this time, and most of the other talents, regardless of whether they were in high school or on the list, agreed with Cheng Naixuan's words at this time. When the doctor hurriedly came to check Jiang Wenming's pulse, he was sure that he was just emotional, and it was good to recuperate for a while, and he only prescribed some medicinal soup to calm his mind, and he could be regarded as relieved.

And the director of the Xin'an Hall naturally had to smile and come to visit and say hello. At the same time, he made an appointment with Jiang Wenming and all the ink treasures of Jinke, saying that they were going to hang them up, so that the future scholars would be happy. This is the old custom of previous years, the talents who live in the hall have survived more than a month in the calligraphy and painting incentives of those successful predecessors, and those who have been lifted will certainly not refuse, and those who do not can only cheer themselves up secretly in their hearts, hoping that they can win the Toad Palace in the next moment. For the Xin'an Association, which is the link between the township party, such a move is purely to enhance the cohesion between fellow villagers.

Wang Fulin and Xiaobei didn't come back until noon, and the people who came early to look at the list had not dispersed, so they couldn't help but be crowded. Second, Wang Fulin was unwilling to waste the ingot of silver he had dropped in Kuiyuan Tower, so he had a round stomach with Xiaobei. As soon as he entered the Xin'an Hall. I learned that Xinke Xie Yuanjiang Civilization was almost happy and sad after hearing the good news, but fortunately, Cheng Naixuan saw the opportunity to wake people up early and invited a doctor. Although there was a lot of trouble between Xia Shui Silk at the beginning, the contradiction between Wuyuan and the people of She County was very small, but because Shuai Jiamo, who went to complain, had no news, this matter was temporarily put on hold, and now it is not as tense as it was back then.

Besides, someone told Wang Fulin that Jiang Wenming wanted to thank him, so Wang Fulin had to pay a visit. Therefore, after sending Xiaobei back to the room first, he went straight to Jiang Wenming's side, but after knocking on the door and entering the house, he found that the room was full of people, and he had no place to put his feet! But before he could find an excuse to come back, someone enthusiastically gave way, and someone added fuel and vinegar to help: "Brother Jiang, Brother Wang Xian has come to see you!" ”

Faced with such treatment, Wang Fulin couldn't get out and leave, so he had to just walk forward, but he saw Jiang Wenming leaning on the head of the bed, his face and spirit were really not good. As soon as the two sides looked at each other, Jiang Wenming was about to get out of bed with one hand supporting the bed board, Wang Fulin was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop the person and press him back to the bed.

"As soon as I came back, I heard that Brother Jiang was not in good health for a while, so he still had a lot of rest."

"It's just a big ups and downs, nothing too important." Jiang Wenming said politely, then lowered his head and said, "I was too arrogant before, and I talked a lot about Brother Wang Xian, but when something really happened, it was thanks to Brother Wang Xian's help, otherwise I would ...... I really shouldn't say what is good, all in all, if there is no Wang Xian's brother's righteousness, there will be no Xie Yuan without me, and I will remember this love for the rest of my life! ”

Wang Fulin didn't expect Jiang Wenming to admit death so much, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and quickly humbled himself. And there are people in the room full of people, and there are also talents who are purely here to pull the relationship after falling off the list, so they naturally will not hesitate to praise Wang Fulin to the sky. Fortunately, there was a knock on the door not long after, but it was to inform the deer banquet the next day. Although the township examination is not as good as the Hui examination, and the examiner does not have the identity of a teacher, no one will hesitate to worship a teacher before entering the officialdom, so the attention of the room full of people will be diverted in a moment.

Nanzhili should be the same as Tianfu and Beizhili Shuntianfu, each township examination is assigned a positive and three deputy examiners, in addition to the same examiner promotion of many officials, even Geng Xiangxiang is also a very prestigious scholar-type official, but because he was not originally from Hanlin, he was originally not qualified, but he was very appreciative of Zhang Juzheng's behavior of colliding with the high arch, and after returning to the dynasty, he was given a few days of post in the Hanlin Academy, so although some people think that he once supervised Nanzhili, and now it is not appropriate to preside over the Nanzhili Township Examination, but Zhang Juzheng is arbitrary, and Feng Bao in the palace nodded again, The appointment was only forcibly approved.

It was precisely because of the criticism that Geng Xiangxiang knew that the official had a good name, so after arriving in Nanjing, he did not take a single step, and was extremely cautious, and only called a few servants to inquire about all kinds of information in the places where scholars haunted the city of Nanjing, especially to pay attention to whether anyone sold test questions or other fraud, or paid attention to talents. As a result, it has been calm until the end of the township test, but during the marking period, it was a storm, if it wasn't for the sudden earth-shattering turn in the end, he almost concluded that someone deliberately cheated him. So, when grading the papers, he deliberately used more dim sum eyes, but those who carried the imprint of the Wang Xuetaizhou School were too deep, he was either dethroned or pressed the ranking.

The township test that caused such a turmoil will definitely attract attention from inside and outside the court, and at this time, the slightest mistake must not be revealed! It is true that he is a disciple of the Xinxue, but he is not a puppet of the school.

What is terrible is what it is, he never expected that in order to show fairness, he would not join the promoter and examiner to dismantle the name together before the final list, but he could choose a clean and innocent paper to point to the first name Xie Yuan, but it was from Huizhou Mansion!

At the Luming banquet at this moment, Geng Xiang, who was sitting on the main seat, looked at the people who came in to meet him, not to mention the mixed tastes in his heart. As the main examiner who has a good relationship with Hu Zongxian, he took a Xie Yuan from Wuyuan County, Huizhou Prefecture, but now the Huizhou Mansion is like a blowout, and the limelight is on par with Suzhou Mansion.
