Chapter Twenty-Six: The Leaderboard

The carriage went to the Lin family this time.

Zhou Li was on the side, Lin Song didn't say anything, and said goodbye to Zhou Li by the door.

ordered someone to carry Jia Rong in.

Lin Song wanted to go to the study to find Lin Ruhai, but learned that Lin Ruhai was in the backyard.

rushed to the backyard, and saw Lin Ruhai teasing the crane with a rattle from a distance. A few maids surrounded him, laughing and talking about something.

And the Qin family and the Su family were sitting idly under the flower hall not far away, both doing needlework.

Lin Song came closer, only to hear the maid say:

The crane laughed and laughed again.

The little crane is indeed laughing, but it seems that Lin Ruhai is smiling more happily than the crane.

Seeing this peaceful scene, Lin Song stepped forward with a smile and said with a smile: "Father is good." ”

When Lin Ruhai heard the voice, he immediately put the rattle aside, his expression became serious, and he said in a deep voice:

"I guess Rong'er told you everything."

"It's all said." Lin Song stood in front of Lin Ruhai with his hands down, and said with a smile:

"The child congratulates his father on Gao Qian!"

"Excuse me." Lin Ruhai didn't care about these vanities, and his voice became more and more serious: "Although your current literary talent, it is not a problem to show off in the exam." But in Yangzhou City, if you are rash and slack, it is not impossible to fall off the list. ”

"Yes, my son understands." Lin Song arched his hand.

Lin Ruhai said: "The hospital exam is approaching, I was going to let you go home, and if you come back yourself, I won't have to let someone pick you up." Go back to your yard and read. ”

Lin Song went.

His yard is still the same, Xi'er and Xiangling sit in the courtyard to make a front, and look at the size of it for He'er.

Lin Song walked in, Xi'er looked up and saw that it was Lin Song, she couldn't even care about the needle and thread on her body, and hurriedly got up to greet her. Say:

"Brother!"

Xiangling also hurriedly stood up, looking at Lin Song left and right, with the joy of reunion after a long absence in her eyes.

Lin Song smiled at them: "I'm just studying hard with the teacher for a while." ”

"It's been a few months." Xi'er couldn't help but say, and after speaking, she hurriedly ordered someone to fetch water to clean up, and asked people to carefully clean up the room.

Xiangling guarded Lin Song throughout the whole process, looking at Lin Song with teary eyes, which made Lin Song smile:

"Look at me like this, I'm just studying with Master."

Xiangling was still in tears, listening to what Lin Song said, and bowed her head and said nothing. After a while, Fang said stupidly:

"I know."

Lin Song just smiled.

Outside the door, Xi'er had already brought someone in, and when she saw Lin Song, she said with a smile:

"Brother, let's have a sip of tea first."

As he spoke, he squeezed Xiangling aside.

Xiangling didn't say much, and when she saw Xi'er serving closely, she quietly took the book. I went to read quietly beside Lin Song again.

It wasn't until Lin Song was about to write that he asked Xiangling to wait on the side to study the ink.

Xiangling watched quietly, with only Lin Song in her eyes.

When Lin Song writes articles, he writes articles wholeheartedly, and never shifts his mind to external things. Xiangling's infatuation was unaware of him.

The hospital exam is just a few days away.

Lin Song went with Qi Wentang, Li Changfeng, Zhou Li and others.

There are a lot of people, and the end is faster.

It was very easy for Lin Song to write the "Sacred Oracle" silently, and he had memorized it many times. Zhou Xiaoyan was a great Confucian in the world, and he had prepared a lot for Zhou Li's imperial examination.

In terms of articles and trial poems, Lin Song and Zhou Li have undergone a month of special training, and they have to write one article each day and submit it to Zhou Xiaoyan to evaluate the merits.

These two categories, even if they can't write well, are much more proficient than ordinary candidates.

What's more, among the questions written this month, there is really an article title, which matches the question of this college exam.

Wait for the main test and the second test to pass two times.

When it came out of the list.

Lin Song took the lead, and Zhou Li, ranked third.

The name of the second one has never been heard, the surname is Zhu, and the name is Ke. Nineteen years old, the word Yuncheng.

Lin Song didn't see this Zhu Yuncheng until the Lin family held a deer ming banquet.

It's a simple-looking young man.,I heard that he was a cowherd in the mountains.。 The place where he herds cattle is close to the school, and what the people in the school learn, he reads. In the past few years, I have learned a lot of words.

It's strange that he just listens to those people read it, and he knows it all by heart. Seeing that he was good, he wanted to teach him, who knew that he had the ability to never forget, so he taught him well for three years, and pushed him to participate in the county examination, until this college examination, all within the top three.

Lin Song couldn't help but look at him twice, he immediately sensed Lin Song's gaze, and smiled at Lin Song.

But this smile, Lin Song knew.

This man is truly extraordinary. looks honest, but he is a master who sees six ways and listens to all directions. The city is very deep.

Lin Song took the initiative to raise a glass to him, and he also took the initiative to step forward and said:

"You're Lin Gongzi. My name is Zhu Ke, and my name is Yuncheng. I read your article and I'm not as good as you. ”

"I've read your article too, but I'm not as good as you. Although I look better than you, it is also because I have a famous teacher's teaching. Plus having written similar articles. Lin Song smiled at him and drank the wine in his cup.

Zhu Yuncheng shook his head and said very seriously: "The disciple doesn't have to be inferior to the teacher, and the teacher doesn't have to be inferior to the disciple." In the final analysis, it is Brother Lin's personal talent and understanding that is higher than mine. ”

As he spoke, he took a drink.

Lin Songxin said: "It's different, Zhou Xiaoyan has studied exam questions and articles for many years. Not to mention similar articles, he wrote. ”

But Lin Song couldn't say it, so he punished himself again, and said, "It's useless to let it go, Brother Yuncheng will sit down." ”

Zhu Yuncheng sat between Lin Song and Zhou Li, and smiled at Zhou Li:

"I've also read Brother Zhou's article. Brother Zhou's talent, I also deeply admire it. ”

Zhou Li was well aware of his own shortcomings, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhu praises falsely. After speaking, he bowed his head and remained silent.

Zhu Yuncheng had no choice but to look at Lin Song again, although he smiled honestly, his intention to make friends was too obvious. Even if he laughs honestly, you can see his true nature from his words and demeanor.

Lin Song laughed with him and drank many glasses.

Zhu Yuncheng obviously hadn't drunk alcohol, and when he drank seven or eight times, the humility on his face was reduced by three points. smiled and said to Lin Song:

"I look at my own articles, and I have to be at the top of the list. Until the list was released, I saw that I was the second on the list, and I was still unwilling. I found your articles and trial poems and read them, and I knew what it was to be outside people. Just ......"

Zhu Yuncheng took a break from drinking, but he still said very seriously: "What is the path of Dayou's characteristics? I think this sentence is very subtle, I have also read your commentary, but there are still some puzzles, can Brother Lin explain it to me in detail? ”

Lin Song was stunned.

Dayou's characterism is just what he wrote here and took advantage of it. I really want to explain, say that the feudal dynasty will be overthrown and the country of the new era will be established. Although he hasn't heard of the text prison in Dayou, he will be regarded as a thief by everyone here.

Lin Song thought about it, and had to lead this feature elsewhere, and said with a smile:

"Just as the barbarians are good at riding and shooting, I am better than the vast land and many people, they are good at horses, and we naturally have high walls and iron shields. The high wall and iron shield are our advantages, that is, we can go further! ”
