After more than half a month, the county exam was finally completed.

is still Zhiyan first, Gu Xian is second, Qin Fenghou has worked hard in the first few games, but he still only holds the fifth, and the third and fourth are both from Jingzhou Mansion.

According to the past practice, the top five students in the county examination can be selected to enroll in several academies in Mao County.

The more times like this, the more lively the major academies compete for people.

The top five are all the pride of the sky, who doesn't want them to enter their own academy?

At this time, not to mention that the shackles of admission to the hospital must be avoided, that is, let the academy pay them to go, and the academy has to rush to post the money!

And the most eye-catching thing at this time is naturally always the first place after five consecutive exams.

Because this first place is not only the first place in Mao County, but also the first place in the entire state capital, and even the first place in half of the provincial capital...... After this, it is a stable Jinshi, and even a Jinshi and the first!

And how can Jinshi and the first can have a position of editor of the Hanlin Academy, which is to prepare for entering the cabinet, and as long as he walks steadily in the future, he will be a cabinet minister!

Cabinet Ministers!

What kind of future and glory does this have to be?!

Just thinking about it, my eyes are red, I have to envy, jealousy and hatred more than ten times in my heart, and then I quickly stammered with a smile......

Therefore, from morning to night on the day of the crime, the Gu family was overcrowded.

First of all, Yi County Ling personally led the people, and came in a mighty way, and sent fifty taels of silver, several supplements and two sets of four treasures of the study, as the government's reward for the first place in the county examination.

Yi Xianling had already seen Bao Ying once, so he regretted the murder of Jiang Zhen in front of her, and took out a silver ticket of twenty taels of silver from his pocket and gave it to Xu: "...... This can be regarded as a little bit of the official's heart, the official used to have a great friendship with Brother Jiang, and he saved the official's life, but it's a pity...... Alas! In short, if there is anything difficult in your family in the future, even if you look for the official, the official will never stand idly by! ”

"Thank you for the prefectural order...... If he is knowledgeable, he will thank you for your kindness. "Xu's heart is simple and kind, and when he heard that the county magistrate was still worried about the good of Jiang Town, he was immediately moved.

Yi Xian Ling said some nice words again, went to Zhiyan and Gu Xian again, and politely said some words of encouragement before leaving with someone.

Gu Baoying, Zhiyan and Gu Xian sent him to the door.

When the group walked away, Bao Ying pressed the corners of her mouth down, and said sarcastically: "No wonder the ancients always said that this is always the icing on the cake, and it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow, these fifty taels of silver...... Scold. ”

It's not that the money brought by the county order is less.

It's just that Yi County Ling keeps saying that he is like a brother to Jiang Zhen, but when Jiang Zhen has an accident, why did he never see Yi County Ling show up?

Even if he has a good chance to do it, if he sends someone over, even if he asks whether it is good or bad, he can at least exchange Gu Baoying for two tears.

But he didn't say a word in the past, and it wasn't until today that Zhiyan took the county case exam, so he came to mention this friendship, except for a simple person like Xu's who would believe it, Gu Baoying really didn't believe a word.

"Forget it, let's just know it in our own hearts." Zhiyan patted Gu Baoying on the shoulder and comforted her.

"That's right." Gu Baoying wrinkled her eyebrows and thought about it, there was really no need to be knowledgeable with the other party, and besides, she couldn't afford to see it now, so she pursed her lips and smiled.

The three of them then planned to go home.

Just before he could turn around, he saw another group of people coming, but it was Jiang Zhan as the leader, followed by a few middle-aged men full of books, and a few small servants came with congratulatory gifts.

"Seventh Master? How did you get here! ”

When Gu Baoying saw Jiang Zhan, she showed a sincere smile on her face, and when she saw a few people beside him, all of them had extraordinary temperaments, she couldn't help but have a small face, and asked extremely solemnly, "Who are these people?" ”

"It's a few great Confucians from Jize Academy."

Jiang Zhan beckoned to Gu Xian and Zhiyan, and when the two of them stood in front, he introduced, "This is the county case leader who ranked first in the five consecutive examinations in this county examination, Zhiyan, this is Gu Xian, who is the second place, and this little lady is Gu Baoying, who has superb medical skills and is used by the two elder brothers to study." ”

He first introduced Gu Baoying and the three of them to several great Confucians in the academy.

Then, he introduced these great Confucians to the three of them one by one.

The middle-aged man who was about forty years old and wearing a navy blue Hangzhou silk was the dean of Jize Academy, Li Zhiru.

The other person is thin-skinned, with sharp facial features, a white beard, wearing a light bean-green fine linen shirt, and is in his fifties, Zhang Qingrong is a Confucian.

He is short in stature, slightly fat, with a round face and thick eyebrows and a smile that looks extremely easy to get along with, but there is a flash of essence in his eyes from time to time, and there is a small short beard on his chin, I saw him habitually caress his hand twice from time to time.

He looks about the same age as Dean Li Zhiru, has a black mole the size of a mung bean on his left eyebrow, and is wearing a black fine silk embellished Zheng Pingdaru.

In Jiang Zhan's introduction, Gu Baoying, Zhiyan and Gu Xian all greeted them one by one.

Gu Baoying and the others all knew for a long time that the reason why Ji Ze Academy was able to compete with Yue Mo Academy in the future was because Jiang Zhan invited these great Confucians.

At this time, in the midst of each other's greetings, Li Zhiru first stared at Zhiyan's handsome face, pondered for a moment, and then asked him directly: "Have we ever seen each other somewhere?" ”

When Zhiyan heard this, his eyes flashed slightly, but he shook his head: "This is the first time I've seen Mr. ”

"Really? I always think you're very good-looking......" Li Zhiru still stared at him, thinking carefully.

"Okay, even if you want to rob someone, don't use this trick, right? Conventional pattern! On the side, the big Confucian named Chen Weixin patted Li Zhiru's shoulder with a smile and said teasingly.

"Alas, I'm serious! Where is it like you say, just to rob people? Li Zhiru immediately wrinkled his eyebrows and retorted unhappily.

"Didn't you come here today to rob people?" Chen Weixin touched the pinch of mustache on his chin, still smiling.

"It's to rob people, but I really think I've seen him!" Li Zhiru still argues with reason.

When Chen Weixin heard this, he was so happy that he wanted to say more.

On the side, Zhang Qingrong immediately reprimanded a little unbearably: "Okay! You two, let's just go farther away and have a fight! Don't make a noise at someone's doorstep! ”

He was the oldest and most respected of the men.

As soon as these words came out, Li Zhiru and Chen Weixin immediately stopped, and no one said anyone more.

Gu Baoying looked at this scene, stunned, but also a little funny and wanted to laugh.

Of course, she didn't forget to quietly pay attention to Zhiyan's expression.

Although Zhiyan denied it just now, he didn't seem to be telling the truth, so this Mr. Li Zhiru is very likely to have really seen Zhiyan!

But what he has seen must be Zhiyan before his amnesia!

At this time, Zhiyan denied this, which means that he did not want to admit his former identity in front of these people.

"A few gentlemen, please go into the cold house first, drink a few cups of coarse tea, and rest for a while before talking." Gu Baoying quickly thought about these things clearly, and immediately raised her hand to invite them in.

"yes, let's go in first." Jiang Zhan also said.

"Hmm." Several Confucians led by Zhang Qingrong nodded one after another, and then entered in turn.

Zhi Yan and Gu Xian led them and walked ahead.

Jiang Zhan lagged behind, stood at the door with Gu Baoying, and talked.
