Time passed day by day, and soon came to the day of the release.

When this day comes, it seems that the whole of Kyoto is much more lively than usual.

Chen Yu walked to the place where the list was released, the list had not yet been released, and the center had been surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside.

And a large part of these people are not even candidates, but judging by their expressions, they are even more eager than a considerable number of candidates.

Chen Yu had a little white fox lying on his shoulder, standing on the periphery and waiting quietly, when Jiang Hongzhuo and a friend of his also walked over.

After seeing Chen Yu, his eyes lit up, "Brother Chen, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

As for why Chen Yu moved out of the inn in the first place, Jiang Hongzhuo didn't ask much, everyone has their own little secrets.

So far, it has been about a month since the two last met.

"Brother Jiang." Chen Yu also said hello.

Jiang Hongzhuo looked at Chen Yu and asked, "I wonder how Brother Chen feels about the exam?" ”

Before Chen Yu could reply, another person who was with Jiang Hongzhuo said with a smile, "Needless to say, looking at Brother Chen's confident and unnervous expression, I am probably very confident that I will be on the list." ”

Chen Yu also smiled, "Chen still has some confidence in whether he can be on the list." ”

Looking at Chen Yu's confident appearance, Jiang Hongzhuo's eyes lit up, and he said to Chen Yu, "Coincidentally, I also have some confidence, Brother Chen, why don't we compare, whose ranking is higher, how about the loser have a treat?" ”

Chen Yu nodded, "There's no problem." ”

During this time, he had accumulated some silver money as a martial arts hall teacher, although it was not much, it was enough to have a meal.

Speaking of this, Jiang Hongzhuo looked at his friend Yang Zicheng and asked, "Zicheng, why don't you try it too?" ”

Yang Zicheng hurriedly waved his hand, "I won't participate, unlike you, I don't even have much confidence in being on the list, wouldn't I bet with you that I would send it to the door?" And if it really doesn't get on, how embarrassing is that? ”

Chen Yu looked at Yang Zicheng and felt that this person could say such a thing, either he was a natural optimist, or he had a good family background.

While a few people were talking and laughing, a group of officers approached from a distance, squeezing through the slightly crowded crowd.

"Everybody, give way."

Seeing the arrival of the official errand, Jiang Hongzhuo, who was originally a little relaxed, and Jiang Hongzhuo, who was confident that he could be on the list, was also a little nervous at this time.

After the official posted the list, the surrounding crowd squeezed up again.

Jiang Hongzhuo was about to come closer, but was stopped by Chen Yu.

"Brother Jiang, wait a minute, you don't have to go to the crowd to squeeze in."

Before Jiang Hongzhuo could ask anything, a loud voice had already come out.

"First place Huiyuan: Du Qingjun."

"Second place: Wang Junkun."

But the people who are close to the list, those who have good deeds, read their names from top to bottom one by one.

Every reciting one causes an exclamation, especially when the first place comes out.

"Third place: Chen Yu."

"Fourth place: Li Xuebin."

“……”

"I didn't expect it, Brother Chen." Jiang Hongzhuo looked at Chen Yu, his face was slightly complicated.

Although he was very humble when chatting with Chen Yu, in his heart, he should be better than Chen Yu.

Because when he took the township test, Jiang Hongzhuo was the second place in their state, and Chen Yu was only the seventh.

However, as a person who is not bad in terms of personality or other aspects, Jiang Hongzhuo quickly adjusted his mood and arched his hand at Chen Yu, "Congratulations to Brother Chen." ”

As for Yang Zicheng on the side, he didn't think about it so much, and after hearing Chen Yu's third place, he directly congratulated Chen Yu.

"I didn't expect Brother Chen to be so talented, congratulations."

After finishing speaking, Yang Zicheng turned his head and said to Jiang Hongzhuo with a grin, "It seems that you are going to have a treat." ”

Jiang Hongzhuo, who recovered, also had a smile on his face, "Can I still rely on it?" I can afford to invite a few people to dinner. ”

As the ranking continued to decline, Jiang Hongzhuo's name also appeared quickly, which was not bad, ranking thirteenth.

Originally, because of this fairly good ranking, Jiang Hongzhuo, who might be a little proud, felt extremely calm at this time.

Then, as the names on the list were read out, someone in the crowd shouted from time to time, "I'm in, I'm in." ”

caused a burst of envy and congratulations from the people around him.

In the end, the result was not bad, Yang Zicheng also entered the list, although it was only the last few, but for him, he was already very satisfied with being able to pass the exam.

Happy, Yang Zicheng said to the two, "Hongzhuo and Brother Chen, I invited you to this meal today." ”

Jiang Hongzhuo, who was supposed to have a treat, didn't care, and said to Chen Yu with a smile, "Brother Chen, today we are going to slaughter the son well, his family is a big family, and the business in the south is not small." ”

However, the three of them didn't leave immediately, and they still need to be confirmed one last time, in case the name is bad, it's not good to make a big oolong.

When the crowd gradually loosened, Chen Yu and the others went to look at the list, and after confirming that it was correct, they made an appointment to go to the restaurant for a gathering.

……

And after the three of them left, everyone present was a little puzzled, the top ten people were all famous in the capital, almost all of them were Xie Yuan of the various states and townships, and everyone was not too surprised.

"But who is Chen Yu? Which state is it? Someone asked at his companion.

If it's other rankings, it's just that, the important Chen Yu is still third, although in the exam, except for the first place with the title of Huiyuan, everything else is about the same.

However, the meaning of the top three is still a little different, because in the palace examination after the examination, the meaning of the top three is completely different.

The probability of being able to enter the top three in the general examination and the top three in the temple examination is much greater than that of others.

"Chen Yu I know that he is in the same inn as me, but he moved out some time ago, it seems that he is from the same state as Li Xuebin and Li Jieyuan, or he participated in the township test in the same session."

Li Xuebin next to him, "......"

"I also know, I just said that when I looked at Chen Yu's appearance and conversation, I felt that this person was not ordinary!"

Listening to the conversation of the people next to him, Li Xuebin's face was a little complicated, originally he thought that Chen Yu was sacred, but he didn't expect it to be from the same state as himself?

At that time, after knowing that he was Xie Yuan, he didn't pay attention to the list of people who passed the township test later, but he didn't expect it......

……

But one family is happy, one family is sad, after most of the people have left, there are still a few people who do not believe in evil, look at the list over and over again, and finally leave a little unwilling to be lonely.
