Chapter 558: Second Enrollment

The arrival of Wang Anshi made the city of Tokyo boiling, and even such a big thing as the second enrollment of Gewu College was overwhelmed by Wang Anshi's news, but those students who had been preparing for a whole year to be admitted to Gewu College did not forget about this matter, they were arranged by the college, and the examinations were held in each department, compared with last year, this time the college expanded the enrollment scale, reaching twice as much as last year, that is, six hundred, but the students who participated in the examination reached more than 3,000 people, and the enrollment ratio reached five to one, It can be said that the competition is very fierce.

Today is the day when the results of Gewu College are released, and each department will list the results of all candidates, as well as the number of students admitted to the department.

Cheng Muyang couldn't fall asleep all night with excitement, and before the sun rose the next day, he jumped up from the bed to wash up, and then woke up his two friends Sun Lin and Wang Xun, who lived together, and the three of them ran to the front of the college to wait, at this time the list had not yet been posted, but the candidates who were waiting like them had gathered a lot, and some people didn't even eat breakfast, so they bought something to eat at the roadside stall casually, and waited for the list while eating.

"Brother Yunqi, Senior Brother Ling, you must all be hungry, wait a minute, I'll buy a few Hu cakes!" Sun Lin and the others, who were slightly fat, were anxious, and the three of them also came in a hurry, they also didn't eat breakfast, and now they smelled the aroma of the food on the stalls around them, and they naturally felt tormented.

"Brother Zhongkai, you really have a big heart, I don't have any appetite now." At this time, Wang Xun heard Sun Lin's words but said with a wry smile, he is now full of worries about whether he can be admitted, how can he still have the heart to eat breakfast?

"Senior Brother Ling is right, I don't have the slightest intention of eating!" At this time, Cheng Muyang also smiled bitterly, and at the same time couldn't help but admire Sun Lin a little. Because he found that no matter what happened, Sun Lin was able to have a good attitude, at least he would never forget to eat.

"You two are falling into the inferior, you don't have the strength to eat breakfast, you look at so many people around, if you put the list in a while. It's all going to be squeezing around, if you don't have the strength, how can you squeeze to the front, so you still have to eat! Sun Lin pointed to the more and more candidates around him and said, although the list of Gewu Academy cannot be compared with the imperial examination, it is also about the same, if you don't have a good body, you will really not be able to squeeze under the list for a while, let alone see the ranking for the first time.

After Sun Lin finished speaking, he ran to buy Hu cakes. And I bought four at a time, with chopped mutton and chili peppers in it, it tasted fragrant, spicy and crispy, although Sun Lin was not as good as Cheng Muyang and Wang Xun in learning, but the amount of food was very large, and it was not a problem for one person to eat two Hu cakes, and after eating, he also bought three bowls of soy milk. Although Cheng Muyang and Wang Xun had no appetite, they couldn't resist Sun Lin's kindness. In the end, I could only force myself to stuff Hu cake and soy milk into my stomach.

When the sun was on the line, the originally closed door of the college finally opened, and then Dean Zhao Yan, Vice Dean Shen Kuo, and all the professors and lecturers of various departments of the college walked out, and then Zhao Yan said a few words, and then immediately announced the start of the list. After all, the candidates below are waiting, but not many people are willing to listen to his nonsense.

The walls on both sides of the gate of Gewu College have long been transformed into a notice wall, and some important notices are usually posted here, and the list of admissions is no exception. Those candidates around immediately flocked to the list, looking for their names on the dense list.

Cheng Muyang and the three of them squeezed in the front, thanks to Sun Lin, although he was obese, he was not fat, but he had the strength to open the way in front, which made the three of them squeeze to the front, and then the six eyes began to search for their names on the list, but they were all like playing drums in their hearts, that is, nervous and excited.

Cheng Muyang first found the list of candidates in the Department of Physics, the number of students enrolled in the Department of Physics this year reached 100, that is to say, the test results must be squeezed into the top 100 to be admitted, although Cheng Muyang felt that the exam was good, but he also met a lot of audit students who were also in the Department of Physics this year, and some people's talent and efforts were even inferior to him, so he had little confidence in whether he could squeeze into the top 100.

It is precisely because of this that Cheng Muyang did not start from the first place when he looked at the list, but found the hundredth place and looked up, but before he could find his name, Sun Lin next to him suddenly slapped his shoulder excitedly and shouted: "Twelve, Brother Yunqi, you actually took the twelfth place, and almost got into the top ten!" ”

Cheng Muyang was also shocked when he heard Sun Lin's words, hurriedly looked up, and sure enough, he found that his name appeared in the twelfth place on the list, which made him also full of excitement, and even wanted to scream, but thinking of so many people around, he finally resisted the impulse in his heart, took a long breath to calm down, and then turned to Sun Lin and said, "Brother Zhongkai, have you found your name, how did you do in the exam?" ”

"Don't mention it, the Department of Mathematics recruits two hundred and ten people, and my rank is two hundred and thirty-five, so I can almost squeeze in." Sun Lin said and pointed to the list next to the physics department and said, "But Senior Brother Ling was admitted, and he was one hundred and ninety-eight." ”

"Brother Zhongkai, don't be discouraged, the results of the two of us are about the same, but my luck is a little better!" At this time, Wang Xun also opened his mouth to comfort, he was also very excited to see that he was admitted, but when he saw that his friend Sun Lin was almost not admitted, he could only hold back his excitement and comfort him in a low voice.

"Haha, it's nothing if I'm not admitted, it's a big deal that I'll audit for another year, anyway, I'm younger than Brother Yunqi, and it's okay to wait another year!" Hearing his friend's comfort, Sun Lin laughed and said, his mentality is indeed very good, although he has some regrets about failing the exam, but he has confidence in himself, and he will definitely be admitted if he waits for another year.

Seeing Sun Lin's open-minded appearance, Cheng Muyang couldn't help but feel very admired, speaking of which, Sun Lin is the smartest of the three of them, but it's a pity that he usually doesn't work hard, otherwise with his qualifications, he will definitely not fall off the list.

Sun Lin didn't pay too much attention to his failure, and even clamored to celebrate Cheng Muyang and Wang Xun, but the two couldn't shirk it, so the three of them hired a carriage to enter Tokyo City, speaking of which, although a market has been formed on the side of Gewu College, and there are also a few good hotels, but the specifications are not particularly high, and the meals are average, so when they encounter happy events to celebrate, they usually go to Tokyo City to find a high-grade restaurant.

Sun Lin's family has been in business for generations, so he is not short of money, and he is celebrating for two friends, so in the end he took Cheng Muyang and Wang Xun to the famous Qiwei Building in Tokyo City, and they all know that this restaurant is related to the dean Zhao Yan, so the students of the college usually come here when they celebrate.

The three of them went to the restaurant and found a seat by the window to sit down, and then called a few specialties of the restaurant, and two pots of good wine, and the three of them chatted while eating, among which Cheng Muyang and Wang Xun could no longer suppress their excitement at this time, and began to look forward to the life after becoming a formal student of the college, as for Sun Lin, although he was a little envious, he was confident in himself that he would definitely be able to become a student of the college like them next year, so he also participated with a smile.

However, after chatting a few words about the academy, Cheng Muyang suddenly changed his words and said: "Brother Zhongkai, Brother Ling, the imperial court rejected Mr. Linchuan's proposal to change the law, and only gave Mr. Linchuan a noble position, obviously not ready to reuse Mr., I don't know what you think about this?" ”

As soon as he heard Cheng Muyang mention Wang Anshi's matter, he saw Sun Lin immediately said with an annoyed face: "The imperial court is really confused, now everyone knows that there are many internal contradictions in the Great Song Dynasty, if you don't change the law, sooner or later it will cause a big change, such an obvious thing, why can't the imperial court see it?" ”

"Brother Zhongkai is cautious!" As soon as Sun Lin's words fell, he heard Wang Xun dissuade him in a low voice, "Brother Zhong Kai, you don't know, it is actually the official family who refuses to change Mr. Linchuan's law, and several ministers in the court have not expressed any opinion on this, and even Ouyang Xianggong and others are very supportive, but it is a pity that the official family resolutely refused to allow it this time, and even the prince tried hard to persuade him in the end, but the official family still did not agree, so this led Mr. Linchuan to change the law and mention yì did not pass guò!" ”

Wang Xun is from a family of eunuchs, and he also has some connections in the officialdom, and he can inquire about some news that ordinary people can't hear, and even Zhao Ji supports the change of the law, which also makes Sun Lin and Cheng Muyang surprised.

"Senior Brother Ling, since even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has expressed his support for the change of the law, why would the official family be so resolute in opposing it?" At this time, Cheng Muyang asked again.

"How do I know this, the so-called sacred heart is unpredictable, I'm afraid that except for those big people in the court, others don't know what the official family is thinking." Wang Xun said with a wry smile when he heard this.

"Whether it's the imperial court or the official family, it's a little unwise to refuse Mr. Linchuan's mention of changing the law, I heard that someone from Guozijian and Taixue proposed to submit a collective petition again, do you want to participate?" Sun Lin spoke again at this time, although he had a good attitude when encountering things, but after all, he was a young man, and he was inevitably a little impulsive in doing things, and even naively thought that as long as he gathered the strength of his young students, he could force the imperial court to change its decision again.

"Go! You must go, and you must not let the court go wrong again! At this time, Wang Xun also said with a resolute face. Seeing that the two friends said they wanted to go, Cheng Muyang, who was the most stable, thought about it for a while, and finally nodded in agreement. It can be said that as long as someone is willing to take the lead, the three of them will definitely participate in the second petition.

But at this moment, a newsboy happened to come in to sell today's newspaper to the guests, and Cheng Muyang and the three of them also bought one, but as soon as they opened the newspaper, the three of them started shooting the case almost at the same time, and at the same time, the other guests in the restaurant also made a commotion, as if something terrible had happened?
