Chapter 65: No name on the list
Gong Wailang nodded and responded: "Your Majesty, Su Wan is by no means satisfied with this. In the exam papers, he resolutely opposed the use of beauty by readers, saying that readers should honestly focus on the business of reading, and everything else is nonsense! ”
Listening to what the Ministry of Officials said about the examination outside the palace, Emperor An Xunyu finally couldn't help frowning lightly: "These are all in the Su Wan test papers?" It seems that it is really excessive. Dare to question the system of this dynasty, such an elm pimple, a rampant person, the imperial examination of this dynasty really can't tolerate him! ”
The officials of the imperial examination were still hesitant, worried that the emperor would be in Su Wan's faction, and blamed himself for killing Su Wan by mistake, after all, the emperor's love for talent is a famous thing for the whole country.
But now, listening to An Xunyu say this, Gong Wailang of the main examination department finally couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth slightly, and was saying: "Sure enough, Your Majesty is wise!" ”
An Xunyu still had a calm face: "For the sake of Su Wan's youth and vigor, and his blood and qi are strong, I will let him go and don't care about him." It's just that in the future, Su Wan will be completely removed from the imperial examination list of our Northern Yan Kingdom, and he will no longer have any qualifications to participate in the imperial examination! ”
"Mighty, Your Majesty is wise!"
"What a wisdom, Your Majesty!"
As soon as An Xunyu gave the order, the civil and military officials present knelt down towards him one after another, and said in a loud voice, although An Xunyu felt a little sorry in his heart, but his face was still calm.
In other words, on the day the list was released, almost all the students in the inns in the capital were concentrated in front of the imperial list, but the list of everyone on the imperial list was vivid, even Su Wan usually looked down on the most, but to everyone's surprise, it was from the first name on the imperial list to the last name, and Su Wan was not seen.
Some of the students who were originally suppressed by Su Wan found themselves on the list, but Su Wan was named after Sun Shan, and there was schadenfreude on his face; However, there is also sympathy and deep regret that Su Wan's people are planning to encourage him to take the exam again next year.
When he turned around, he found that around him, it seemed that he had never seen the shadow of Su Wan, a genius in Jiangnan.
Could it be that he got up too late in the morning and Su Wan just got up too early, so he missed it like this? Just when everyone was puzzled, they didn't expect that Su Wan would get up early this morning and was about to go to the city gate and alley in the capital to watch the list.
But the oncoming palace people just stopped Su Wan's way: "Sinner Su Wan, are you guilty?" ”
Looking at the person in front of him, he looked at himself with a gloomy face, but when he spoke, he looked at him with a blank look, not like he was joking at all, Su Wan looked inexplicable: "Guilty?" What sin do you know? ”
Su Wan asked with a confused face, but unexpectedly, suddenly the person in front of him, who seemed to be in the middle, looked like an elderly father-in-law in the palace, and as soon as he opened his mouth with a sharp voice, the guards standing on both sides of him seemed to be from the palace.
Su Wan's collar was grabbed on the ground, "Su Wan, are you guilty?" How dare you say insulting words about our people's customs on the test papers of the imperial examination, saying that students participating in the imperial examination are not allowed to use student makeup, and also criticize me for being too heavy? How can these customs established by the previous dynasties tolerate you to be so presumptuous! ”
Su Wan pursed her thin lips lightly, and her face was stunned: "I'm sorry, I really didn't think of it, and no one has said it, I can't say that, father-in-law." Please be gracious! ”
Su Wan said as he spoke, suddenly thinking about it, and patted his head: "Oh, by the way, I remembered, I must have heard that I was about to take the imperial examination, Su Wan was excited the day before, so after drinking, I would write those on the exam paper!" ”
"What? Participating in the imperial examination is such a ** and grand event, you actually drink? The father-in-law asked with an awe-inspiring face, Su Wan looked at the formation, the other party's face was fierce, and he almost didn't arrest him, and his face showed a shy smile of a scholar: "I'm sorry, father-in-law." Su Wan didn't mean that. ”
Su Wan originally wanted a serious explanation, but Du's father-in-law suddenly interrupted him: "Enough, Su Wan!" You don't have to explain any more. ”
"Your Majesty said, for the sake of your youth and vigor, bloody and strong, it was just an impulse, and he opened the net and did not kill you. However, he removed you from the list of candidates for the imperial examination, which is a holy decree that has just come down from the palace. You have read and read, so we don't need to repeat this decree! ”
As he spoke, Du Gonggong directly handed the holy decree in his hand to Su Wan's hand, Su Wan's face was stunned, but his eyes were sharp and bright.
"How can this be? No, there must be something wrong here, "What about the good vote?" In exchange for the removal of the name, the removal of the name means that he can not take the test again in the future, originally he was a scholar, but the long road of studying and becoming an official has come to an end?
Thinking of his ten-year cold window, it turned into nothingness overnight, Su Wan's face was as pale as paper for a while, while nodding his head, he shook his head again, and in a while, the whole person was like a soul withdrawn from his body, and he didn't know what to do from beginning to end.
Just as he nodded and shook his head, the palace people from the palace had already conveyed the holy will, turned around and returned to the palace to resume his life.
At that time, Su Wan, looking at the empty inn, was the only one left, this is not bad, it is estimated that it will not be long before a candidate suddenly comes back and brings back all kinds of news, good or bad.
The good thing is to win the name in one fell swoop, and the eyebrows are smiling, naturally needless to say; If it is bad, it will be the same as him, and his name will fall to Sun Mountain.
But even if it is a name for Sun Shan, it is a big deal to take the exam again next year, but what about yourself? was actually expelled from the list, that is, there will be no such opportunity to participate in the imperial examination in the future.
Thinking that he was carrying the hopes of all the people in the village, he rushed to the capital from Jiangnan thousands of miles away, and actually took the exam for two years, but he only got such a result.
Su Wan's heart was like ashes for a while, she didn't even bother to take her luggage, and the whole person was still swaying even when she walked, looking like a ghost without a soul from a distance.
Out of the night owl, fifty miles to the west, and then turn a corner, you can see a river, by virtue of his memory, when he used to be tired of studying, he could always see the fish in the river jubilantly there.
