Gu Chengyu walked out of the door of the examination room, and Daddy Gu, who was waiting there, hurriedly stepped forward.

"How? Is this exam difficult? Uncle He was a little worried, after all, he was directly facing the magistrate, and he was afraid that his son would be nervous as soon as he saw the magistrate, and it would be bad if something went wrong at that time. This is the last game, and you can't give up all your efforts!

"Uncle He! You can rest assured! The magistrate is approachable, and the exam questions this time are not difficult! In fact, the first four have passed, and the county test is not said to be nine out of ten, but the chance of being brushed down is much smaller, so you just wait for the good news! ”

He Shunian's performance in the private school on weekdays is good, although he is not as dazzling as Ye Zhiqiu, but it is not bad.

"That's good! That's good! Tomorrow should be the last to happen, right? I'm just waiting for your good news! Uncle He comforted Gu Chengyu for a few words, and then he was a little relieved.

"It's hard to say it's a tough exam! In just one county exam, you have to take five exams, and there are two exams in the back before you can be admitted to Xiucai. This is really what I told others, passing five levels and killing six generals! It's not easy to take a show! ”

Seeing that Gu Chengyu's face was good, Father Gu felt that his son should be able to pass the exam, so he had the leisure to sigh about the difficulty of the exam.

"Who's to say it isn't? In the past, I always forced Brother Hua to read, and I didn't let him be idle for a moment. It's hard to think about it these days. After this county test, let him rest for two days. ”

Uncle Gu also lamented that it was not easy for the candidates, he had never been out before, and he didn't know that the exam was so difficult. They followed the examination for the past few days, and only then did they deeply feel the difficulty of the imperial examination.

"Since ancient times, tens of millions of people have crossed the single-plank bridge in the imperial examination, and if they can't stand steadily, they will be squeezed down." It's just that Gu Chengyu didn't expect that one day, he would also become one of these candidates and experience the imperial examination in this era.

This time, they waited a little long, after all, they had to wait for the last Gu Wanhua.

Gu Wanhua was the last to come out, with a somewhat confused expression on his face.

Uncle Gu couldn't help it anymore, "What's the matter?" Can you get by? Although Gu Chengyu said that he shouldn't brush people again, he still didn't feel at ease.

His grandson has a few pounds and a few taels, and he still knows that the first two times were dangerous. If you go in, the adults will see that Brother Hua's foundation is not solid, and he will be approved, but how can it be good?

"I don't know! The magistrate only asked me one question, and it happened that I had read it in a book before, and I was quite impressed. I finished answering, and the adults didn't say anything, and I didn't know if I could get through it. ”

"You should be able to get by, but don't think too much. Today's exam is over, and the long case will be issued tomorrow. Let's go back and rest more! "The other candidates have already left, and only Gu Chengyu and them are left at the entrance of the examination room.

The next day, the candidates at the inn got up early, and everyone quickly took care of themselves and rushed to the crime office.

"Seiyu! Hurry up, everyone else is gone. At this time, Sun Xian couldn't calm down.

"That's it!" Gu Chengyu wiped his face, and then he followed Sun Xian and them out of the inn a little soberly.

It had just dawned, and there were still a few remnant stars left in the pale blue sky. It's too early, right?

"Quick! Let's take a good seat first, otherwise we won't be able to squeeze in front of us when the time comes. ”

Don't think that there are only about 30 candidates left waiting for the test results, and add the family members of these candidates. Although some candidates have failed the list, they still have to wait for the candidates they know to go back together, so the number of people watching the list is still quite large.

After waiting for nearly an hour, an errand came to post the long case. This is the last session of the prefectural exam, and there is no seat number, so the candidates are all ranked by their names, so it is called a long case.

Gu Chengyu followed Ye Zhiqiu and squeezed forward, fortunately, there were not too many people, otherwise with Ye Zhiqiu's small body, he would not have to step forward, he would be pushed out.

"Seiyu! Look, you're the head of the county! It's the first place again! As soon as Gu Chengyu stood still in front of the long case, he heard He Shunian, who had already crowded in front, shouting.

Gu Chengyu looked at the red paper that was posted, and sure enough, he saw that his name was the first in line, and there was a place of origin next to it, so he should be right.

Gu Chengyu is very calm at the moment, and he can get the head of the case, it can be said that he is somewhat expected, and he has really played well in these few games. Of course, it is not absolute, he never dared to underestimate the ancients, and it is not for nothing that his literary talent is better than him.

Seeing his name, he then looked down, the second name is "Chen Zhou", this name is not unfamiliar, he has been in the top ten in the first few games, and it seems that he is quite powerful.

Ye Zhiqiu's position in the fourth place can be regarded as high. Looking down, Sun Xian is in thirteenth place, and He Shunian is in twenty-first. Gu Chengyu thought of something, set his eyes on the last one, looked at the name, raised his hand and stroked his forehead, Brother Hua is on the bar with the last one?

Anyway, it's over, and you can go back and treat yourself to a good meal. He doesn't seem to have eaten breakfast yet? I'm feeling a little hungry at this point!

"Master! I've passed! I'm able to take the prefectural exam! Gu Wanhua has already seen his ranking, he knows his results, and he will definitely not be ranked well, so he wants to look from the back to the front, who knows, the last one is his name.

When he saw the name on the long case, he was happy, anyway, as long as it passed, how could he care about the ranking? Isn't the first place and the last place still the same to take the prefectural exam?

But he didn't know that the first place in the county exam, as long as it was not written unsightly, he could generally take it when he took the government exam. If you write a little better, you can get to the top, this is a common rule in the officialdom, after all, the county head recommended by the county magistrate can't fail the list as soon as he takes the government exam, right? Isn't that the examiner not giving face to the magistrate?

"Congratulations, brothers! Congratulations to Brother Hua! Let's take the government exam together again! Gu Chengyu sincerely congratulated a few people.

The rest of the people also responded, "Congratulations to the junior brother for winning the county case!" ”

On such a happy day, Gu Wanhua of course has to choose to be obedient. "Congratulations to Uncle for winning the first place!"

"What? He actually got the county head? "The candidate who quarreled with Gu Chengyu at the inn also passed this time, and the general saw his name on the long case, and before he had time to be happy, he heard someone next to him talking about the head of the county case. When I looked back, I found that it was the little baby who quarreled with him at the inn, or the Gu Chengyu who had been dominating the first place in the five games!

"Humph! I don't know if your knowledge can convince the public! The candidate was particularly unconvinced, and thought to himself, later, I will post the test paper of the county head, and see how long you can be rampant!

In fact, some people are so strange that they always think that what they can't do, others can't do.

Gu Chengyu and the others are still happily discussing the matter of the government examination, which is in April, and it is not far away.

"The test paper of the head of the county is here!" At this time, the crowd was even more agitated, and every time the test paper at the head of the case was posted, it was a time of controversy or praise. The students who stayed behind would talk about it or compare their own test papers with them to see what was missing.

Several of the officers held the test papers in their hands, painted a layer of paste on the wall, and then pasted the test papers next to the long case.
