Chapter 45: Wang Tong's Acquaintance

Maybe it was because he was too unlucky in his previous life, but Liu Ming felt really lucky in this life, and he got the test points he prepared.

Liu Ming was slightly satisfied - he is really an exam-oriented talent. The Mensa Club will do all the strange questions by himself, and it is always no problem to pass the first exam of this imperial examination. After getting the exam papers, he wrote the two big pieces of Jingyi and Shifu, and he completed most of them in less than half a day. He flipped through the pages, and there was still one essay left, and after a while, he also prepared a draft in his belly.

So far, so good.

Putting the answer sheet aside, Liu Ming stood up, moved his muscles and bones a little in the narrow number room, and looked out. Whether it was on the opposite side or in the next room, everyone was nervously answering questions. At this time, I saw the faces of the candidates in the exam, some meditated, some were complacent, and some were sweating profusely, so nervous that they couldn't even hold the pen. Occasionally, a few people looked up and saw Liu Ming, with an incredible look on their faces, but they didn't dare to stay too long, and buried their heads in the pen again.

At this time, Liu Ming had already completed two-thirds of the way, and there was more than enough time left. I was really bored, so I simply drew a portrait of the prison guard standing guard next to me.

In the afternoon, the sun makes people see dazzling flowers, the sky is blue, and the clear sky is lined with cranes on the clouds, which leads poetry to the blue sky.

While sketching the portrait of the prison guard, Liu Ming took out a few pastries from his lunch box and ate them unhurriedly. Lunch had already been eaten, and he just felt greedy, and the pastries that Apricot made for herself were all crispy and lovely, and they were indeed tempting.

Liu Ming ate deliciously, and he was still smacking, which amused several prison soldiers. They happened to be standing at their posts, with nothing to do, and they were thinking about how to pass the time, when they saw Liu Ming's abnormal appearance, they immediately regarded it as a pastime. In the eyes of these prison guards, Liu Ming was dressed in rich clothes, just a rich kid who was forced to come to the exam and go through the motions, and it was estimated that he couldn't make the papers, so he simply ate to relieve his boredom.

The smiling eyebrows of several prison guards were captured by Wang Tong, he walked over with a gloomy face, glared at the prison guards, but looked in the direction of the prison guards' gaze, and saw Liu Ming eating while drawing something, and immediately frowned.

Looking in the direction of the prison guard's gaze, he saw Liu Ming eating while drawing something, and he immediately frowned.

He paced forward, walked to the table of Liu Ming's house, looked down at Liu Ming's sketch, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, these few concise white strokes sketched a standing yawning sergeant vividly, with clear lines, accurate shapes, and concise strokes. Seeing that this gentleman was drawing carelessly, he painted it with aura, which made the haze on Wang Tong's face suddenly disappear a lot.

He turned his head and saw the messy pile of exam papers on the corner of the table on the side, and sighed in his heart, he didn't expect Liu Ming to be able to complete the exam papers so long in advance, but the other party couldn't do it, so he drew for fun.

Wang Tong showed pity on his face, this person, from the painting, it can be seen that the aura is complete, but today's imperial court, or to the strategy and the righteousness of the judges, good at painting, at most in the school to hang a teaching name, it is also remarkable.

As he was talking, the autumn breeze blew, the fallen leaves in the courtyard rustled, and even the answer sheet in front of Liu Ming's desk was lifted, Wang Tong raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect that Liu Ming's answer sheet was full.

He stretched out his hand, gently picked up the answer sheet on the table, and unfolded it in his hand. Liu Ming was enjoying painting at this time, but he didn't notice that there was the examiner standing next to him.

Wang Tong saw that Liu Ming's small block was written vigorously and powerfully, and his strength penetrated the back of the paper, and he felt a little more praise in his heart, and he couldn't help but want to keep this painting genius. I thought that only if he did the article well, then I would give him a name.

At this time, the people of several houses next to him noticed Wang Tong in front of Liu Ming's table, and they all immediately raised their heads to look at this scene. Wang Tong picked up the answer sheet in the corner of Liu Ming's desk and opened it to read, from left to right, reading it slowly, and gradually, his brows became more and more relaxed. In the end, he became smiling, which made the sergeant next to him wonder for a while. They know that this Wang Tongju, known as the cold-faced Tongju, has always been iron-faced, and has never seen him smile, but now the sun is coming out of the west.

After reading Liu Ming's exam papers, Wang Tong was surprised. He didn't expect that this guy who seemed to be a hanger could write a volume like a great Confucian, this article was made simple in system and familiar in tone, and it could almost be read as a model text.

He slowly put down the answer sheet, for fear of alarming Liu Ming, and cautiously took a few steps back, then turned around and walked aside, sighed in his heart how handsome Qingzhou was, and slowly paced back to the inner hall.

On the other hand, Yoo Yong's article is also well done and very smooth. He was a little glad that things had been smooth so far. It's night, just stay up one more day, and you're done.

The afterglow of the setting sun covered the ground of the Gongyuan, and many of them had basically completed today's task, their faces were a little relaxed, and they smiled and nodded to each other.

Liu Yong took out the rice balls from the lunch box and was just about to eat them, but he saw someone in the corner of the Gongyuan looking at him. Liu Yong shook his head, and then he saw that the person was Wang Tong. He immediately stood up and bowed his hand to smile.

That Wang Tong also smiled in return, walked over slowly, took Liu Yong's exam paper, looked at it slowly, saw half of it, and said softly in his mouth, "Changfeng, you have grown." ”

Liu Yong saw Wang Tong pick up his exam paper, and his heart fluttered, he was originally a gunman, the more low-key the better. But this iron-faced judge Wang Tong seems to be quite friendly to himself.

It's just that...... Wang Tong's title just now made Liu Yong feel inexplicable.

However, in an instant, an idea suddenly exploded in his heart - this Wang Tong was an acquaintance of the person he was taking the exam.

Recalling that at the beginning, when he was wandering in front of the stinky number, this Lord Wang has been helping him and helping him build a temporary number house.

At this time, Liu Yong was a little glad in his heart, it seemed that this Lord Wang had some acquaintance with the Lu family, a wealthy businessman who was taking the exam for him, but he was not too familiar, so he didn't recognize himself. This is naturally the best situation, Liu Yong also smiled at this time, and smiled at Wang Tong and returned the salute.

Who knew that Wang Tong stretched out a hand, beckoned Liu Yong to come closer, and then said, "Virtuous nephew doesn't have to be polite, your father and I know each other, and this exam will naturally give you a ...... to take care of."

This sentence was originally a relieving word, but after Liu Yong heard it, he was like five thunderbolts, and he didn't know what to do. It turned out that Wang Tong said this sentence extremely loudly, as if he wanted to say it to the entire Gongyuan candidates.

At this time, the dark clouds in the sky condensed, the sky was extremely gray, and the wind was fierce, as if a violent storm was coming.

Sure enough, Wang Tong's face instantly became gloomy and uncertain.

He looked at Liu Yong coldly and said, "I didn't expect this Lu family to have such courage to find someone to take the exam for them." At first, the old man didn't believe it, but he was still very relieved to see you, and he saw that you were taking the exam next to the stinky number, and he also built a temporary number house for you. Wang Tong's eyes were like a brass bell, "But when I heard you call me an adult, the old man became suspicious, before in your house, everyone was a student and teacher, why did you call me an adult when you went outside?" ”

When Liu Yong heard this, he secretly complained in his heart, it was really a blessing, and the disaster was not a one-way street, and he finally mustered up the courage to be a gunman, but he met this sharp-eyed Monkey King, and his luck was also bad.

At this time, Wang Tong's face was full of anger, and his beard trembled: "This official is ordered by the Son of Heaven to preside over the national talent ceremony." Before the exam, I had already warned you that you needed to abide by the rules of the Gongyuan, but you didn't want to be a daring gunman, and you wanted to get by? ”

At this time, Liu Yong knelt on the ground, his eyes full of tears of remorse. He thought about it, he was really confused, why did he dare to take a risk and pretend to be a gunman? Even if you want to take Xie Yuying away, just like Liu Ming said, there are always other roads, right? If you have to take this most difficult road, you are now reaping the consequences.

Ancient scholars, in the face of violating the Song law, still had a deep sense of shame, especially Liu Yong, who was hot-headed for a moment before embarking on the road of gunmen.

"Do you know what kind of crime is it to openly impersonate to take the autumn exam?" Wang Tong directly regarded the examination site of the Gongyuan as a public court, he looked at Liu Yong who fell to the ground, and enumerated them one by one, "The Taizu system, the people who take the test by name and impersonation, the deployment of thousands of miles of foreign state troops, and the same protection of insiders, should never be raised." ”

"Come on...... take this substitute out of the dormitory for me." Wang Tong gave an order, and the two messengers immediately pulled Liu Yong out of the dormitory, and took off his disguised beard.

"It's not ...... Will Liu Sanxing? "Among the officials who took the exam, they exchanged their heads and ear canals. Liu Yong, who is also a celebrity in Qingzhou, is also quite famous. Seeing that the person who took the exam turned out to be Liu Yong, he was also quite surprised.

Seeing that his uncle's identity had been exposed, Liu Ming couldn't sit still. He is Liu Yong's nephew and also belongs to the same insurance insider. According to Song Law, the penalty is to be permanently deprived of the examination qualification.

Liu Ming frowned, this stretching out his head is a knife, and shrinking his head is still a knife. He immediately got up, tucked the exam paper under his armpit, and walked directly to Wang Tong.

"This lifter...... You are not allowed to move around at will in the examination room......" Wang Tong frowned, he was angry, if it was someone else, he would directly let the messenger beat the other party's board and accuse him of disturbing the order of the Gongyuan. But this Liu Ming's article, Wang Tong had already read it, and the intention of loving talent was also reflected in this general judge, so the tone was relatively peaceful.

"My lord......" Liu Ming bowed, "students don't move around at will...... The student is ...... It's time to hand in the papers! ”

Submit your papers early? Even the prison guards on the side were stunned. This national talent ceremony comes once every three years, just to wait for these two days. Let's not say that the allotted time is just enough, even if there are a few smart people who can complete the task in advance, they should seize the time to review it again to see if there are any inappropriate words.

Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, the person who handed in the papers in advance was Yan Shu, the prime minister of the dynasty.

Wang Tong's eyes showed appreciation, and he couldn't help but admire Liu Ming's courage. He smiled and took the exam paper, only to find that Liu Ming was still standing here.

"What else?" Wang Tong asked.

"My lord......" Liu Ming glanced at Liu Yong, who was kneeling on the ground, and also knelt down and said, "The student is Liu Yong's nephew." ”
