Chapter 250: The Golden Age of Prodigies

After the results of the imperial examination come out, what is the first thing that the middle school candidates face? Fang Yingwu may not have thought too much about it before, but now that he knows, the first thing he has to face is countless wine banquets.

In addition to various private banquets, even the official will hold banquets to celebrate, such as the deer banquet after the township test, and the more famous Qionglin banquet after the palace test.

Among them, according to tradition, this deer banquet is scheduled to be held the next day after the township trial list, and the location is generally in the Minglun Hall of Fuxue, after all, there are not many places that can accommodate more than 100 people at the same time.

On the night of the release, Fang Yingwu and Xiang Chengxian sent Hong Song, who was so drunk that he was unconscious, back to his residence and let out a long breath. When you are proud, drinking with a frustrated friend is indeed a very painful thing. The two said hello to each other, and agreed to go to the Luming banquet together tomorrow morning.

There was nothing to say all night, only Yunyu Fang Yingwu waited for the half-dead state of the list for a few days, and happily pulled the little concubine Sister Lan to fight twice in a row, only to vent her excitement a little and fall asleep.

At dawn the next day, Wang Ying woke up Fang Yingwu, and the two went out after washing. After meeting Xiang Chengxian, they came to Fuxue together.

At this time, I saw that the school was full of lights, red and green, and it was festive. Indeed, in the whole process before and after the township test, the deer banquet can be called the most festive time.

First of all, the people here are all proud of the spring breeze, and it is natural to gather together to laugh and be jubilant, and no one is here to spoil the scenery.

Second, these newcomers are not so stupid as to really think that people come here just to eat and drink. Be sure. Today is absolutely not good to eat and drink.

As the so-called drunkard does not mean to drink, everyone recognizes each other's teachers and students, identifies with the year, and identifies with the door is a serious thing. This kind of scene naturally has to be laughing and laughing, like a spring breeze.

If you win the lift, even if you change from a scholar to a gentleman. The teacher and the same year are naturally the connections brought by the imperial examination, which is one of the most important relationships in life.

Fang Yingwu walked outside Minglun Hall, and was surrounded by a group, and many people came up to greet him. As the most potential person recognized by Jinke, it is normal to get this kind of treatment, and even Fang Yingwu himself is mentally prepared.

The saying that age is a treasure is by no means empty words, whether in the imperial examination or in the officialdom, youth is real capital. In the Ming Dynasty, there was a phenomenon of prodigy worship. The younger you are, the more sought after, although the eighteen-year-old middle lift is not a person who has never been seen before or after, but it is also very rare, no wonder everyone admires it.

Everyone surrounded Fang Yingwu, and the discussion was naturally indispensable, and some people who were very familiar with the story said: "Juvenile high school is rare, but this dynasty is really full of talents, and there are several over the years, which is really amazing."

Chenghua seven years Sichuan township test. There is a young man named Yang Tinghe, who was lifted at the age of twelve; In the same year, Huguang Township tested, and a man named Yang Yiqing was only 14 years old and also won the lift. These two people have both been in the Jinshi in the eighth year of Chenghua, which is really a good conversation.

And in the last 13 years of Chenghua's Guangxi Township Test. There is a young man named Jiang Mian, who was released at the age of fifteen, and his future is limitless! In addition, there is Li Dongyang of Jingshi. In the eighth year of Tianshun, he was a high school jinshi at the age of eighteen. It is also famous all over the world.

Now that I have a Fang Tongnian High School in Zhejiang Province, my generation is really honored! Ruo Fang was on the yellow armor in the same year and next year. That's going to raise the face of my generation again! ”

Someone else interjected: "Although Fang Tongnian is not as old as those people, he is also outstanding, enough to be ranked among them and be famous all over the world." ”

There was also an old man who shook his head and sighed: "My emperor Shengming, my generation is in a prosperous era, and this is the grand occasion of young talents." ”

Fang Yingwu couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, he knew the future, even if he was thick-skinned, he also liked fame, but at this time, he felt that he really couldn't afford everyone's worship, and it was a bit too much to be touted.

Li Dongyang, Yang Tinghe, Yang Yiqing, Jiang Mian, these are all genius prodigies with young and precocious wisdom, and they have one thing in common in the future, they have all been the first assistants and they don't know where the future of Fang Yingwu is.

It's a pity that only he understands this entanglement, Fang Yingwu can only smile humbly on his face, and say continuously: "Your seniors in the same year have praised it!" Call the boy, I have no place to be ashamed! ”

However, Fang Yingwu still secretly praised in his heart, here are all talents who can be promoted, and they are indeed very good. is also talking about himself, and the level of conversation is many times higher than the vulgar discussions he heard in the restaurant yesterday.

Speaking of Fang Yingwu, an eighteen-year-old man, if he is placed in other eras, he must be a very eye-catching existence. But in the weird Chenghua Dynasty, it is not so dazzling, and people who are more magical than him seem to abound.

During the Chenghua period, there were indeed many imperial examination prodigies, and the famous imperial examination prodigies of the Ming Dynasty were afraid that most of them appeared in the Chenghua Dynasty. One after the other keeps popping up, it's just dazzling.

In addition to the above, in three years, there will also be a sixteen-year-old Jiangxi Xie Yuan Fei Hong, and at the age of twenty, he will be the champion, and Zuihou has also been the first assistant.

The consequence of this is that during the Chenghua period, there were countless bigwigs who were in the center at a young age and became the elders of three or even four dynasties in a long time, almost monopolizing the cabinet position in the next few decades.

In the next forty or fifty years, from the Hongzhi and Zhengde dynasties to the early years of the Jiajing Dynasty, the first assistant almost all emerged during the Chenghua period-

Li Dongyang of the eighteen-year-old Zhongjinshi, Xie Qian, the twenty-six-year-old Zhongjinshi, Liang Chu of the twenty-five-year-old Zhongjinshi, Yang Tinghe of the fifteen-year-old Zhongjinshi, Yang Yiqing of the thirteen-year-old Zhongjinshi, Fei Hong of the sixteen-year-old Xie Yuan and the twenty-year-old champion, and Jiang Mian of the thirteen-year-old Xie Yuan and the twenty-three-year-old Jinshi.

The above lineup is the first auxiliary sequence after the Ming Dynasty, so the prodigy of the Chenghua Dynasty can be called a golden generation full of gold, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is even a super platinum generation.

With so many real prodigies who have become contemporaries, at least they have begun to be juxtaposed by others, I don't know if this is the luck or misfortune of the new people

Fang Yingwu suddenly remembered that when he was running around in the capital to save his father, he had entered the Hanlin Academy once, and in a hurry, in order to promote his father, he ridiculed a group of Hanlin, Li Dongyang, Yang Ting and Xie Qian, wouldn't they be in that group of people?

Gossip aside, according to the law of conservation of energy, some places are hot and others are cold. Fang Yingwu's side is very hot, and some people's side is deserted, such as Xie Yuan and Li Min's side.

Li Jieyuan is very talented, and his nature is not bad, but he is a person with a somewhat arrogant character. This time, he understood Yuan, under normal circumstances, he should have been the most dazzling person, but the limelight was stolen by Fang Yingwu of the junior high school.

Although Li Jieyuan is not necessarily unpopular with the vulgarity of these laymen in his heart, he is still a little unhappy, is the thirty-seven-year-old Xie Yuan so unpopular? (To be continued......)

PS: Looking at the historical materials, I found that the bigwigs in the next few decades are basically contemporaries of Fang Yingwu, or even the same generation, Fang's classmate Alexander. I'm also a big head, and it's really a question of how to weave my network in the future.
