Chapter Twenty-Six: Sima Jinshi

Liu Sheng and the meditation monk walked all the way to Luoyang City after saying goodbye, and at this time Jia Fu was reminiscing about the words of the meditation monk just now, and said while walking: "Another person who is the same as the old way of the bull nose"

"You're wrong, it's not one, it's a group." Liu Sheng listened to Jia Fu's exclamation and hurriedly corrected it.

Sima Zhao also muttered: "A good one is not merciful because of hard work." Buddha Jue Temple, full of Buddhism's mind".

"Looks like you haven't seen their temple yet, right? Is it too early to assert" Yang Yong listened to the emotion of the three of them and deliberately teased.

Jia Fu was suddenly interested, and asked Yang Yong, "Haven't you been there with Wang An?" Where is what it looks like".

"You'll know when you go, and no matter how much you tell you now, it's not interesting." Wang An took the conversation and said to Jia Fu.

Jia Fu pouted unhappily: "Disappointing, tell me that there will be no shortage of meat for you."

Several people were laughing and playing on the road, and they had been walking into the city for a long time. Wang An said to Liu Sheng, Jia Fu, and Sima Zhao: "Yang Yong and I will say goodbye to you here today, and we will talk about it in a few days."

"From yesterday to today, I'm really tired, and I'm going to take a good rest when I go back. Say goodbye to the three of you, and you can go back and rest." Yang Yong also hurriedly said goodbye to them.

Liu Sheng saluted the two and said, "Since this is the case, then I will not send it far."

"Farewell, have a good journey" Jia Fu and Sima Zhao also hurriedly said goodbye to Wang An.

After several people said goodbye to each other, Wang An and Yang Yong hurried all the way to the East Palace, and they arrived at the East Palace in a short time. The guards of the East Palace, seeing that Wang An and Yang Yong did not dare to stop them, and the two walked directly to the palace.

The East Palace campus is lined with soldiers. A young man over about twenty-five years of age, with a thin build, wears a brocade robe. Riding on a white horse, urging the horse to whip up, the horse's hooves are hurrying. The young man bent his bow and shot an arrow, and the arrow galloped away, hitting the bull's-eye directly.

The surrounding armor soldiers cheered in unison, and after a while, the cheers weakened. As the cheers subsided, the horse's speed slowed down. At this time, Wang An and Yang Yong ran from a distance, and the young man's eyes lit up when he saw Yang Yong and Wang An. shouted at Yang Yong: "Yang Yong, get on the horse."

Yang Yong understood what he meant, and a guard brought a black BMW and handed the bow and arrow to Yang Yong. Yang Yong carried his quiver, took the bow and arrows, and jumped on the horse. Urging the horse to raise the whip, the horse's hooves are like flying. Yang Yong pulled the bowstring and fired three arrows in unison, hitting the bullseye almost instantly. Around the armor, cheers rang out.

After the young man dismounted, he sighed to Yang Yong: "Lonely days and days of hard training, it is still not as good as you."

"Your Highness Miaozan, archery is a trail." Yang Yong hurriedly dismounted and watched Chai Yu return, his tone was neither humble nor arrogant.

Chai Yu shook his head with a wry smile, he was not pursuing this topic, and asked Wang An suspiciously, "What did you do yesterday?" Why didn't you come to the East Palace?"

Yang Yong and Wang An glanced at each other and told the events from yesterday to today one by one. After hearing this, Chai Yu said with emotion: "Fojue Temple, I haven't been there for many years. If you have a few days, you should go for a visit."

Wang An didn't speak after hearing this, but just handed him a small item. Chai Yu took it and asked suspiciously, "This is the compass you are talking about?"

"Yes, that's it. This morning, Liu Sheng just finished it. The minister did not dare to slack off on this matter, and hurriedly brought it to His Highness." Wang An saw Chai Yu's confusion and hurriedly replied.

Chai Yu played with the compass for a while, and said thoughtfully: "The Water Silk Road, it's a bit interesting......."

Liu Sheng and the three of them were in the restaurant for several days, and on this day, the imperial court used the gold list to announce the rankings. A team of officers and messengers dressed in joyful clothes, and each name was announced, and there was a team, beating gongs and drums, and running happily to the residence of those middle school scholars. The team dressed in joyful service shuttled back and forth through the streets and alleys of Luoyang, shouting one name after another. Today's scholars on the list are destined to move the world and vomit the suffering of ten years of cold windows.

Sima Zhao, Jia Fu, and Liu Sheng had already run to the hall of the restaurant to wait, and the hall was full of people at this time. All of them are anxiously waiting. Looking at the team announcing the good news on the street, they walked one after another. Jafu muttered and counted, "It was ninth just now, and now it's eighth."

Before Jia Fu could finish speaking, a gong and drum sounded. Immediately afterwards, a joyful voice came: "Sima Zhao, the seventh place in the first list, Jinshi and the first."

As soon as the words fell, the team that reported the good news ran up, one by one beaming for good fortune. Seeing this, Jia Fu hurriedly took out the change prepared in advance, took the joy of the money and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Mr. The seventh place in the first list, the first place in the Jinshi and the first." The imperial court will hold a banquet tomorrow, and all the new scholars are invited to the banquet to show that our court treats the scholars preferentially."

"Please rest assured, Zhao will be on time." Sima Zhao hurriedly replied, and it was difficult to hide a hint of joy in his tone.

At this time, the team of annunciation left, and the congratulations in the restaurant were endless.

"Congratulations to Mr. Sima for being a high school jinshi."

"Mr. is a great talent, and I am a role model".

"In the future, I will regard Mr. as an example and enter the rank as soon as possible."

"I hope that after Mr. becomes an official, don't forget our affection."

Sima Zhao returned the salute one by one, and said modestly to everyone in the restaurant: "Zhao is fortunate to be blessed by the ancestors, everyone is loved, and you are lucky to be on the list."

"Brother Sima, my surname is Lu Mingqing. is on the same list as you, and is lucky to be in ninth place. In the future, we will be officials in the same dynasty, and we hope to carry out a lot." A voice came from the crowd, and then a man about twenty-eight or nine walked out, smiling at Sima Zhao.

"Each other, I hope Brother Lu will help each other more in the future." Sima Zhao replied politely, his tone full of politeness.

"People in my generation should be like this, it's easy to talk and ......" Lu Qing heard Sima Zhao say this, his face was like a blooming flower.

At this time, a junior in the restaurant took out a pen from it. In the place where Sima Zhao left the words on the wall, he wrote in a smaller font next to it: "Seventh on the first list".

After Xiao Er finished writing, he smiled and took out a jar of good wine, handed it to Sima Zhao and said, "The shopkeeper said, how can there be no wine for such a happy event." So he deliberately asked the villain to go to the cellar and dig out this jar of thirty-year-old wine, and congratulate the gentleman."

Sima Zhao took the wine jar and said respectfully to Xiao Er: "Please also ask the little second brother to return to your shopkeeper, just say that a few of us have received more favors in your place, and Zhao is grateful."

"Sir, you don't have to be polite, this is our restaurant, and it has always been the rule of life. If Mr. feels that he can't go, he might as well do more practical things for the people as an official. When you are famous, if you still remember the contempt, please inscribe a few words, and the little old man is grateful." At this time, the shopkeeper of the restaurant heard Sima Zhao's words. hurriedly walked out and said politely.

Liu Sheng and the others looked at the shopkeeper of the restaurant, and saw that he was a little fat, dressed as a businessman, and his face was full of kindness. Jia Fu looked at him, and said to the shopkeeper arrogantly: "I promise that he will be successful and famous, and he will definitely come to you with this inscription."

The shopkeeper was overjoyed and shouted to Xiao Er: "Hurry up and let me let the cook prepare good dishes and entertain a few people."

"Shopkeeper, don't worry" Xiao Er agreed, and hurriedly ran to the kitchen.

Liu Sheng smiled at Jia Fu: "In the next three people, thank you for the love of the shopkeeper."

"It's easy to say, you guys will eat slowly, I'll take care of the other guests first" When the shopkeeper heard Liu Sheng's words, his face was full of red light, as if he had won the jackpot. After speaking, he went to the restaurant and took care of other guests

Jia Fu smiled at them deliberately, and Sima Zhao smiled at Jia Fu: "Jia Fu can't see that you still have two hands." It's easy to let the restaurant get you some of the best wine and food."

"That is, you don't look at who is standing in front of you. Brothers, learn a little, at least not hungry". Jia Fu exaggerated and patted Sima Zhao on the shoulder.

Liu Sheng and Sima Zhao both looked at Jia Fu's movements, and they both showed expressions of crying and laughing. The three of them talked and laughed, the wine and food were already served, and after a while, their index fingers moved and they began to have a full meal.
