Chapter 218: It's Different
Today's apprenticeship ceremony is scheduled at the beginning of the afternoon, that is, at 11 o'clock in the morning.
After the salute, it was almost noon, and it was time to arrange for the guests to be seated.
However, guests generally don't step on the order, especially those who have a good relationship, and even come early in advance to help entertain other guests.
Liu Chenxing finished eating, and left the dishes and chopsticks to Aunt Hua in the kitchen to clean up, so she quickly straightened her robe and went to the farmhouse to welcome guests.
Compared with the bigwig-level people invited by the teacher, she invited almost all of her peers, and they had a good relationship with each other, and they came early.
She had just waited outside the farmhouse when her guests arrived.
Liu Wensu and Liu Qingshan are close relatives, and the two uncles and nephews can't escape, so they are the first to arrive, and they have to follow her outside to welcome guests.
Then there are Xue Cheng and Xue Yuan brothers and sisters, Xue Cheng is dressed up today and is very spiritual, the first year of the provincial test failed, the second year of the Yongzhou state test directly the two brothers and sisters fell off the list together, knowing that Liu Chenxing worshipped Jiang Mo as a teacher, today Jiang Mo invited a lot of bigwigs to watch the ceremony, Xue Cheng naturally had to clean up, and hung a long sword inlaid with gems on his waist very fashionably, holding a folding fan, at first glance, he was a rich boy.
Then there are Cui Yao and Du Yuanlong, who are always active together.
However, it is estimated that they will not be able to stay together at any time as they are now.
A year ago, after the first place in the provincial examination of Cui Yao High School, he went to Guozijian for further study, and then participated in the subject selection examination with Liu Wensu a year ago, and became one of the three who passed the examination without any suspense, and determined the position of Colonel Shulang of Zhengjiupin three or four days ago.
In fact, this position is to wronged Cui Yao, according to Liu Wensu, if it were not for Cui Yao's imperial examination was attacked by the King of Wei, and there was a case of the son of the Ministry of Rites, Cui Yao's award this time is likely to be from the left of the eight products, subordinate to the Menxia Province, and because the left is bigger than the right, that is, it will be bigger than Liu Wensu, the right picker. Therefore, Cui Yao's appointment as a school secretary is only temporary, and most of them don't have to wait for a position for three or four years to be at least promoted to Zuo Shizhi, and even from the left to the seventh grade.
Unlike Cui Yao, who had a smooth journey after stepping into the official career, Du Yuanlong was just the son of an ordinary official, although he also participated in the subject selection examination a year ago, but his name fell to Songshan, and now he is still studying in Guozijian, and it is very likely that he will stay in Guozijian for four years, and then, like most officials, he will be elected as an official through Quanquan.
And four years later, Cui Yao is at least a six-rank Beijing official at his current speed, and then he is a fifth-grade official, which is not a short-term promotion, especially in Chang'an, but at that time Cui Yao was only twenty-five, and there are still five years before the year of his establishment.
Therefore, Cui Yao and Du Yuanlang have different promotion trajectories in the future, and the intersection of the two has gradually decreased, even if the friendship remains the same, it is rare to get together from time to time like now.
Cui Yao followed his uncle Cui Xiang to attend a lot of parties, and the big guy naturally got to know a lot, so after he took the initiative to welcome him, Liu Wensu was the elder in the end, so Cui Yao took Liu Wensu's welcome, and Liu Chenxing and the two brothers and sisters continued to welcome guests outside.
Liu Wensu and Du Yuanlang helped in the yard.
After that, two more came, it was Beizhou Juzi who was relieved with Liu Chenxing, both of them also failed to make the list, and they have stayed in Chang'an so far, and learned that Liu Chenxing and Liu Qingshan were both in high school, so they came to congratulate them, and they were inevitably invited to the official ceremony.
The two came together, and when they saw Liu Chenxing and the three of them who greeted them, they were full of emotion for a while.
At the beginning, the seven of them became the township tribute of Beizhou together, but now in less than two years, only them and Xue Cheng are still on the ground, and the rest are all on the gold list, and two are champions, and one of these two is already an official, and the other is about to go to the empress on an errand if there is no accident.
And how long do you have to take the test?
Where is the end of the imperial examination?
After failing in the imperial examination for two consecutive years, and having the title of the gold list of the same townsman that I had referred to at the beginning, it was inevitable that my heart would not be affected.
But to be able to come to the official ceremony today, I saw many dignitaries and dignitaries, which was of great benefit to them, and they couldn't help but sincerely congratulate Liu Chenxing, and one person arched his hand and said: "Liu Bangshou, congratulations on winning the top spot again, and worshipping the famous teacher, the future will be limitless." ”
Speaking of later, the meaning of envy is overflowing.
The other person is the eldest of the seven of them, already over 30 years old, the Beizhou state test has been taken for several years, after the provincial test last year, he participated in the Yongzhou state test, and he failed again, and his heart was even more disheartened, at this time after the polite words, he couldn't help revealing a trace of loneliness and said: "Liu Bangshou, you are only fourteen or fifteen years old, you are already at the top of the high school list, and you are twice as old as you in vain, but you are ......."
Before he finished speaking, his companion had secretly pulled his sleeve, and he immediately reacted, today is Liu Chenxing's good day, if he sighs like this, how can he be born if he dislikes Liu Chenxing?
I am a white body, and the honor guard in Chang'an is the most good shot of Liu Chenxing and Cui Yao, if I want to go to high school in the future, I may need their help to recommend, I am panicked at the moment, and I am busy with a salute, and apologize: "Liu Bangshou, I have no way to hide my mouth, and please don't blame, I am really happy for you to worship a famous teacher, and I am happy for the top of the high school list." ”
This person's name is Cai Qi, a native of Beizhou, and his family has few assets, because he is the oldest of the seven township tributes they were the oldest, and he usually has a shelf, so he is taboo about Cui Yao, and he actually has a lot of guilt about her, a woman, and thinks that women should not take the imperial examination.
But this person is not bad, and he can even be said to be very principled, in addition, although he is not very literate, but he has a solid foundation, if he can go to high school and become a parent official, he should be able to benefit the people.
Liu Chenxing looked at his fellow villagers who had a bit of a preaching posture towards him at the beginning, but now he sincerely apologized for his guilt, and he also felt a little emotional.
Ten years of cold windows no one knows, in one fell swoop became famous all over the world. But isn't this just world-famous?
It is no wonder that even at a time when the imperial examination is not as valued as in later generations, the annual examinations are still followed one after another, even if they are from the green silk boy to the white-haired man.
Liu Chenxing sighed slightly in his heart for a moment, then hurriedly crossed his hands, returned the salute and went back, and said: "Cai Dalang, at the beginning, the seven of us were all tributes to Beizhou Township, and with your rich experience, you can be our brother, I know that you are really happy for me." ”
Such a statement rounded Cai Qi's face, and Liu Chenxing said again: "Speaking of our Beizhou Zhigongju, we are admitted to two people every year, and it is estimated that it will not take a year or two to congratulate you two, and you two are not bad for the results of the state examination." ”
Yes!
Liu Qingshan fell off the list last year, and this year he didn't get the thirteenth place in the exam, but he was still behind them at the beginning. Maybe next year or the year after that, it will be their turn.
The two of them were overjoyed when they heard it, and they were busy thanking them, only to see a team of tall horses coming, which looked like they were either rich or expensive, and the two hurriedly entered the courtyard, letting Liu Chenxing be busy welcoming the guests first.
