During the banquet, Song Tian also met several acquaintances, including Cai Zhong, the head of the Suming County trial case.

Cai Zhong was ranked in the middle, but he was also successful.

Looking at it, only half of their ten county trials were actually successful.

Sometimes luck is one thing, and the other is to see if there is any effort in the year before the exam, and whether you have found the right direction.

The head of a county, a talent can't run away, but it's hard to say.

After about half an hour, the examiners on both sides left one after another.

Song Tian and the others walked away, cleaned up and prepared to leave.

The people in Pingyang County stopped drinking when they saw that he was leaving, and they were ready to follow.

Song Tian was the youngest in this group, but he became the leader.

Tang Hai had been waiting outside with a carriage, picking up a few people and sending them to the rented house one after another.

The frenzy of the township test began to fade rapidly from the day the results were released.

Song Tian went back to the academy with Hu Ke and Ji Ying the next day, and bid farewell to the master and the dean.

They are going back to their hometowns, and then they are preparing to go to Beijing to go to the examination institute and the palace examination.

Song Tian planned to go to Beijing as soon as possible, and he would not come back after returning to his hometown.

Hu Ke is ready to go to Beijing after the beginning of the year, and he has made an appointment with a few classmates in the remaining days, preparing to travel and increase his knowledge.

Among the three, Ji Ying continued to stay in the academy to study, and then set off for Beijing at the end of the year.

Pang Zimo also decided to come to the academy to study after returning home, and then he went with Ji Ying.

The academy also opened a class for the lifters, as long as they can come to the middle school, after all, these people will enter the court as officials in the future, and no one will refuse this kind of ready-made opportunity.

This time, the people of Qingyun Academy have achieved good results, and eighteen people have passed the list.

Everyone went to bid farewell to the dean together, and in the end Song Tian was left behind.

Xu Xing gave him a letter of recommendation, recommending him to go to Lulin Academy in Beijing.

"Don't waste the time to go up, it's rare to win the yuan in one fell swoop, and this momentum will continue to be maintained."

Song Tian was still very happy to be able to win Xie Yuan Xu Xing, proving that he had not seen the wrong person at the beginning.

Song Tian of the Lulin Academy in Beijing has heard of it, it is not an official school, but it can also be ranked in the capital, which is not bad.

"Mr. Xie."

Song Tian was not polite, and directly accepted the things, and then he thought of Xun De and asked what a guarantor was.

Xu Xing asked him, "But what did someone say to you?" ”

"Gao, the third son of the Gao family."

Song Tian said truthfully, and Xu Xing asked again, "Are you very familiar with him?" ”

"It's not familiar, the student has some contact with him, and the relationship can only be considered ordinary."

The third son of the Gao family, an ordinary person, actually revealed this.

Xu Xing frowned, but still replied: "Those people are candidates who come from other places specifically for the ranking, they are very confident in their abilities, and there will generally be a few classmates who are about the same, in order not to occupy the local quota, they will find a way to go elsewhere, so as to get a better ranking." ”

There can still be this, and you can refer to it here casually, and it's not something that ordinary people can do.

Song Tian arched his hand, "The student knows, I hope that Mr. will take care of his health in his hometown when he goes to Beijing, and he will come to visit him when he returns with honor." ”

Song Tian was extremely respectful, Xu Xing nodded and said, "The dean of Lulin Academy is my student, if you encounter something difficult to solve in Beijing, you can also ask him to help make an idea." ”

Xu Xing seemed to see some of Song Tian's resistance, pinched his beard and said, "Don't think too much before the palace exam, everything is focused on learning." ”

"Remember, students." Song Tian arched his hand, and then said: "The land of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, the nobles are gathered, and students will inevitably come into contact with people when they go. ”

Song Tian lowered his eyes, and since his mind was aware of it, he simply picked it out.

He knows that he is from Xu Xing's side now, but who is the one above, so let him have an understanding.

Xu Xing looked at this stubborn young man and was silent for a moment, then thought for a while: "In last year's college examination, the two deputy examiners each promoted one person, one is you, and the other is the third son of the Gao family. That's not luck, it's all about the hearts of people. ”

"Why there is a dispute between the heads of the case, I believe you also understand."

Xu Xing has indeed made it quite clear that he and Gao Yehua are opposites.

Behind Gao Yehua is the Gao family, the old Gao Ge who has entered the cabinet.

No wonder Mr. Qian asked him if he was very familiar with Gao Yehua, it turned out that the key was here.

"Students understand."

Song Tian saluted and quickly withdrew.

He, a teenager who didn't even go out of Liangzhou, didn't know about the situation in the DPRK and China, but as long as he went to Beijing to inquire about those things, he understood everything.

In September, Song Tian sent a letter to Ah Xiu to Cao's house, after which the family set off for Pingyang.

This time I went back mainly to go home to see, and by the way, I visited the two old mouths and reported the good news.

After all, I really don't know when I'll be able to come back after that, and even if I do, it's hard to say where I'll go back.

Five days later, the group of four wagons returned to the town of Hekou.

Pang Zimo and Hu Ke have already returned ahead of schedule, and the news of Song Tianzhong's solution to the yuan was told by the two of them, and now Song Tian is not only a celebrity in Hekou Town, but also a celebrity in Pingyang County.

After the list was released, Pingyang County Ling came to Hekou Town again, nominally to inspect the Cangshan Academy, but who didn't know that he came to see Xie Yuanlang.

At that time, the Song family had not yet returned, but with Song Ming here, the county magistrate still had a meal with Song Ming and Old Man Song, as well as Pavilion Master Li and others.

This time, when everyone knew that the Song family was back, they all went out to greet each other, and the carriage couldn't move directly, so they surrounded the townspeople.

"Alas, our Xie Yuanlang is back!"

"Really, quick, eldest daughter-in-law, go up and be happy, this baby is a kid, maybe it's also a reading material."

"Shopkeeper Song, can you be there for most of the year?"

"Luckily, everything is going well."

Song Ercai got out of the car with his son and replied to the villagers one by one.

On the Buzhuang side, Old Man Song heard that his grandson was back, and he didn't want any cigarette sticks, so he ran out to pick up people.

Hong also followed him, and the two of them saw a two-bedroom family surrounded by a crowd halfway through.

Song Ercai's appearance has not changed much, but Song Tian has not returned for a year, but it is very different, his face has faded a lot of childishness, and he is already an adult.

Not to mention Chang's, he still had a big belly when he left, and now the doll is nine months old.

Old man Song looked at it, somehow his nose was sour, he didn't know how many times he fantasized that the Song family was revered and embraced by tens of thousands of people, and now the second room people have done it, and his grandson understands Yuan, the first person in Liangzhou.

"Dad, mother."

"Grandpa, grandma."

Seeing the old couple, the family opened their mouths to say hello.

Old Man Song smiled and nodded, and somehow tears slipped down.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?"

Song Ercai stepped forward to hold his father's hand.

After living in the town for more than half a year, the second old man Song was in better shape than when he was in the village, he patted his son's hand and said, "I'm happy, I'm happy!" ”
