The ceremonial officer closed the red paper, handed it to the official to paste, coughed lightly and drank a sip of water, then took another red paper and continued to read, "Fifty-second ......"

Shang Mingjie's article is well done, because after they came out with the right answer, they knew that Lu Yu had fifty-eight, and it was normal for him to get fifty-two. *With* Dream *Small* Say .lā

It's just that Lin You was slightly disappointed, his article thought that it was not as good as Shang Mingjie, and there was no name for him at this time, so it was estimated that it was gone.

The thought flashed, and the ceremonial officer had already continued to read calmly: "Fiftieth, Suzhou Lin You!" ”

The ceremonial officer coughed lightly, and couldn't help but take another sip of water, this is the young talent is concentrated between forty and sixty?

He secretly said in his heart: Lord Shouguan's ranking habits have been the same for decades, can't he change it?

Li Feng also heard Lin You's name, and he didn't go to get to know the Lin family in the past four days.

After all, he was recommended by the Lord of Lin, and unless he switched to the camp in the future, he would be the Lord of Lin's family in the officialdom.

So of course he knew that Lord Lin had a nephew who also participated in the imperial examination this year, and when he heard this name, he breathed a sigh of relief, squeezed out and looked left and right, and found the six young people who were gathered on the side.

He hurriedly smiled and stepped forward to salute, "Congratulations to Lin Gongzi High School." ”

Lin You hurriedly returned the salute and asked with a smile, "Thank you, brother, I don't know if you are ......."

"In Xia Lifeng, it happens to be in the same family as Lin Gongzi."

Lin You perked up and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Mr. Li, Mr. I don't know, my aunt has praised you in front of us these days." ”

Lin You was in retreat before, and he didn't know that someone had submitted papers to his aunt, and he only heard about it after he came out, and what surprised him even more was that his aunt actually went to Ren Shangshu for him.

So he was also very curious about Li Feng, and when he saw it at this time, he simply invited him to go back to the county lord's mansion together.

Li Feng High School, it is true that he has to go to Xie Lin Qingwan first, "Lin Gongzi wait a minute, I will talk to my fellow villagers, and I will go with you to meet the county lord." ”

He Tongxiang was already waiting on the side, and naturally heard them talking, and as soon as the people came over, he dragged people to the side of the car, "You can't go to thank you empty-handed, and wait for me." ”

After that, he took out all the money on his body and gave it to him, and said: "I just sent the little guy to buy spices from the nearby spice shop, and I won't be able to get a decent gift for a while, so you can just have some." ”

Li Feng said ashamedly: "Brother Lao He bothered, I will accept the spices, and I will give you how much money I will give back, but I can't accept this silver." ”

"Why should you and my brother be so polite?" He Tongxiang pushed his hand back and said in a low voice: "A few sons are watching, it's too embarrassing to push it back and forth like this, it's better for you to take it first, and then talk about it when you come back from the county lord's mansion." ”

Li Feng thought about it, and it happened that the little guy from He Township came back with a few bags of spices, so he took something and thanked him.

He Tongxiang smiled, he was a businessman, and he "picked up" Li Feng on the road, one was because he admired him as a scholar, and the other was to bring people for long-term investment.

Later, when he got along more, he also knew that the other party's reading was not as good as he imagined, and he might not be able to pass the exam in this life.

But he admired him again, and he has been a friend, who knows that he will really pass the test?

Lin Jiang, who had been watching from the sky, was also speechless, he didn't know Li Feng, and he didn't take him seriously, but Bai Weng's eyes widened since Lin Qingwan recommended him to Ren Shangshu, and after glancing at the sky mirror, he couldn't help but mutter: "It's a big deal now." ”

Lin Jiang knew that Li Feng was a key person, so he stared at him.

But even if he watched it for so many days, he didn't see where Li Feng deserved Bai Weng's attention.

Bai Weng saw that Shangxian's face was full of curiosity, and his heart instantly felt a lot better, and he said triumphantly: "Shangxian and watch, this person is successful, the history of this small world has changed again, and I really don't know what will happen in the future." ”

Because Lin Qingwan has brought too many variables, although she was in Jiangnan before, although her influence was also great, it would not be so far-reaching, but now......

Lin Jiang is not in a hurry, he has been sitting here for several years and watching the lives of the people below, even if he still follows Bai Weng to ask some things about the immortal family, he is too bored.

So he had already practiced his patience, he could afford to wait, and see what was important to this Li Feng.

Li Feng didn't know that there were two immortals in the sky looking at him, and he was a little nervous to follow Lin You and the six people to the county lord's mansion to meet Lin Qingwan, this was the second time he came to visit.

Lin You waited for the list to finish singing, and only got up and came back after learning about the top three, and the next person ran home when he heard a person's name.

And in addition to them, there are also people from the yamen who report the good news to the door.

So when the seven people arrived home, the county lord's mansion had just sent away the last wave of people who reported the good news, and the door was full of firecracker crumbs, and many people gathered in front of the door to reach out to receive the happy money sprinkled by Steward Lin.

Steward Lin was happy, raised his eyes and saw them coming back, and immediately stepped forward with a smile, "The young masters are back, go inside, my aunt and eldest lady are waiting for you." ”

When the onlookers heard this, they immediately looked over excitedly, and saw that all of them were young talents, as for Li Feng, who was dark and thin, and was not young, he was immediately regarded as a subordinate by everyone.

Out of respect for the Jinshi, they didn't dare to rush up and touch the joy, but surrounded the people to congratulate.

Lu Yu and the others had never been so fanatically pursued, and they were a little stunned for a while, and only after they reacted did they thank them again and again.

Lu Rui and Lu Li followed Lu Yu silly, but Zhou Tong's face was a little ugly, and he didn't get lifted, why did he pull him to congratulate?

Lin You saw that Zhou Tong's face was wrong, so he hurriedly pulled Shang Mingjie, and squeezed Zhou Tong in the middle alone, in order not to be rude, he had to thank him.

Steward Lin also reacted, and immediately brought the family to separate the crowd, and said with a smile: "Come and get the happy money, and be happy......

Everyone's attention turned away in an instant, and they went to the steward of the forest.

When the seven of them finally squeezed into the gate, they looked back at Steward Lin who was submerged in the crowd and the family members around him who were trying to maintain order, and silently wiped a cold sweat.

Everyone was so welcoming.

Rao is unhappy Zhou Tong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and muttered: "It's too rare and weird." ”

Li Fengle on the side, this is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the people are quite knowledgeable, in their county, if they are admitted to the Jinshi, I am afraid that people in half the city will come to congratulate.

Thinking of this, his heart moved, he can't go back now, he has to wait for the end of the morning examination to arrange work before he can go back on vacation, before that, the county government will definitely inform the family of his incident, and I don't know what happened to the family.

After thinking about it, the group had already walked to the door of the flower hall, and looking at the people sitting inside, he immediately gathered his mind and bowed forward to worship, "The villain sees the county lord, and the grace promoted by the county lord is unforgettable......

Lin Qingwan hurriedly held the person up, interrupted his words and said with a smile: "I recommended Mr. Li because Mr. is of great use to the state, but it was Ren Shangshu and the examiners who finally decided to use you, and you have to thank them even more." ”

"But I think that as long as Mr. Li is loyal to the country and serves the people with his heart, he can be regarded as repaying all those who appreciate you." Lin Qingwan glanced at the six people standing on the side, "You are the same, don't think that you can be foolproof if you are admitted to the Jinshi, you still have a lot to learn." ”

Lu Yu, Lin You and Shang Mingjie hurriedly bowed their hands, don't look at their similar age, no one really dares to treat Lin Qingwan as a peer at this time.

Lin Qingwan then looked at Zhou Tong and Lu Rui Lu Li who were standing on the side, "Don't be discouraged if you don't hit this time, you are still young." ”

Lu Rui and Lu Li nodded approvingly, they were prepared to fail when they came to the exam, after all, their age was here.

Zhou Tong lowered his head and didn't speak, even Lin You and Shang Mingjie were hit, but he didn't hit, this gap is still very big.

Lin Qingwan also noticed his look, she didn't like Zhou Tong very much, but she admired Zhou Tingshi very much, and this child has lived with her since he entered Beijing.

Adhering to the principle of caring for the juniors, Lin Qingwan said: "Zhou Tong, you lost the most this time, I have read your papers, your answer sheet is comparable to Lin You and Lu Yu, if I am the examiner, I appreciate Lu Yu more, followed by Lin You, but two-thirds of the examiners who scored the papers this time prefer ornate rhetoric, which means that you are more likely to win." ”

Zhou Tong, Zhou Tong was even more sad.

"I don't know if you'll be so careless next time."

Zhou Tong's face turned blue and said: "If you have made a mistake once, you will naturally not make it again." ”

Lin Qingwan nodded, "Then congratulations, next time you may not only pass the exam, but you may also be ranked very high, after all, you have three years more than them." ”

Lu Rui and Lu Li nodded thoughtfully, "Yes, if you want me to say that there are benefits to not winning this time, anyway, we are not very old, if we win this time, the ranking will definitely be low, it is better to wait for the next session." ”

The difference between the rankings is also very big, and the impact on the career is lifelong, so shouldn't Zhou Tong be glad that he was not selected?

After his paper is copied, even if he is admitted, his ranking will definitely be very low.

The ranking is so low, no matter how good the court examination is, he will be sent to the local area to be a county official, maybe he can't even be a county official, first come to the county lieutenant of a poor county, then there is really no place to cry.

Lin Qingwan and Lu Rui Lu Li's words Zhou Tong finally understood, he thought about it for a while, really, if he really won it, then he should really cry.

Zhou Tong glanced at the last one standing on the side, although he passed the exam, no one knew what errand he would end up with.

Li Feng's errand?

His errand has already been decided, enter the Ministry of Engineering, first work in the miscellaneous for a year or two, systematically learn to deal with official affairs, and then delegate to the local government to deal with river affairs, since he is good at water control, then don't bury his talent.

This was agreed between Lin Qingwan and Ren Shangshu at the beginning, and she was going to discuss with him, but she happened to be here, which just saved her from running.

So after seeing Zhou Tong's enlightenment, she drove a few children out, "You guys go play, I'll talk to Mr. Li." ”

Lin Yubin whispered: "My aunt asked people to prepare a lot of delicious food, and I will take you to eat." ”

With that, he led the people to the back garden.
