The spring of the twenty-third year of Nanhua

Wen Mansion in the city of the Son of Heaven

Wen Yu sat in front of the window and watched a few new little maids in the courtyard playing in the courtyard, and also showed a quiet smile, she participated in the palace exam a month ago, and estimated the time, and was about to publish the list.

Wen Hao was dressed in a mink fur, humming a little song happily, holding the imperial list, and striding into the Wen Mansion.

"Yu'er is in high school, the top second, and she was born as a jinshi," Wen Hao said when he saw someone.

Shinong Gonggong, his Wen family has been hovering at the end of the ruling class, and now there is a second class, how can it make people unhappy?

Specifically, after the examination, there is the palace examination, and the results of the ancient "palace examination" are divided into three grades: one, two, and three. Only three of the first class will be selected. The first name is "Zhuangyuan", the second name is "Bangyan", the third name is "Tanhua", called "Sanding Jia", all of which are given "Jinshi and No."; The second class takes a number of names (according to the needs of officialdom), and they are all given "Jinshi origin"; The top three take a number of names, and all of them are given "from the same jinshi".

Wen Yu put down the book in his hand and ran towards Wen Hao quickly, after so many years of hard study, he finally got a good result.

"My son, for my father, I'm happy" Seeing Wen Yu coming, Wen Hao wiped his tears and handed him the imperial list.

Wen Yu took the imperial list and quickly found his name, the second first, one hundred and forty-seventh, and just squeezed into the second rank like a fill-in, Wen Yu looked at the top three names, and laughed madly.

"What's the matter, Yu'er, don't scare your father" Wen Hao grabbed the imperial list, his own Yu'er is indeed in high school, why is she so unwilling.

Wen Yu knows the first three people, the champion is named He Bicheng, is the nephew of the queen of the dynasty, came to Tianzi City to prepare for the exam, has not learned for three years, often goes in and out of the land of fireworks, and sings every night.

Bangyan's name is Yuan Hongyun, the youngest son of the general Yuan Shicheng, although he does not sing songs every night, but he also does not like to read, he likes to fight and kill, and of course there are few words he knows.

Tanhua Wen is safe, his father is also the Taishou who dominates one side, and he wants to come to this third place, and he has also made a lot of money.

"Yu'er, why are you unhappy?" Wen Hao walked up to Wen Yu and put his hand on his shoulder and asked.

Wen Yu shook his head, this corrupt dynasty, different streams and filth, there will never be a way out, power, can be rich and powerful, although he is the end of the second class, he can also be a first-official and half-post, benefit the people of a place, and make a difference, thinking so, Wen Yu is also relieved.

Three days later, the palace will hold a grand ceremony, and those who are on the list will have to go.

The whole house of Wenfu is very lively, the old man and the servants and maids celebrate for three days, everyone is toasting to Wen Yu High School, Wen Yu is holding tea, and he salutes everyone.

Wen Hao Qin Yu is the most happy, followed by these maids and servants, Wen Mansion has a second class, and his identity is also rising with the tide, only Wen Xi is sullen, and from time to time he kicks his son Wen Ning who is sitting next to him "Waste, rice bucket"

Wen Ning lowered his head and gulped down the rice in the bowl, but he scolded Wen Yu tens of thousands of times in his heart, "Damn nerd, you've been robbing me of everything since you came, I wish you a sudden death on the way to office, I wish you @&$..."

Wen Ning thought to herself, and laughed out loud, "Hey, hey, hey."

Wen Xi looked at this unsuccessful son, stood up and slapped the table, and scolded angrily, "Waste, go back to the house, face the wall and think about it for three days"

Wen Ning looked at Wen Yu viciously, twisted a chicken leg and left.

Although Wen Yu didn't have a good impression of this cousin, he also smiled slightly and said sorry, it's your father's problem, and it has nothing to do with me.

"The daughter of the Grand Master, Miss Peacock said"

Wen Yu's family hurriedly got up and motioned for the peacock to take a seat quickly.

The peacock waved his hand, motioned for his subordinates to carry the congratulatory gift, and then gave Wen Yu a look and asked him to take a step to speak.

Wen Yu took the peacock to the back garden of his house and found a pavilion to sit down.

"Congratulations, you finally relied on yourself to gain fame" Peacock hurriedly congratulated Wen Yu.

Wen Yu smiled bitterly, "It's just the end of the second grade, there is nothing gratifying"

The peacock stood up and looked at the fish swimming in the pond by the pavilion, and did not speak for a long time.

Wen Yu also stood up and looked at the fish in the water.

"I'm really happy for you, unlike me as a daughter, my fate is to marry, husband and children, and I have become an old woman, waiting for others to choose, haha, it's really sad" Peacock stood for a long time and said helplessly.

Wen Yu also touched his short beard and sighed, "The years are not forgiving, maybe this parting is a lifetime, you take care"

The peacock closed his eyes, tears flowing, and he asked in a low voice, "Can't you go if you don't go?" My father is a master, I can make him..."

"Miss Peacock, if it is relying on others, I should not be the official of this official" Wen Yu didn't dare to look at the peacock, just looked at the fish in the water.

"But I, I just want you to stay," Peacock explained.

"Miss Peacock, please find another lover, I, Wen, have always been just passers-by, and thank you for your encouragement and not embarrassment in the past three years, and thank you for inviting me to participate in many gatherings of literati and scholars, which has benefited me a lot."
