Chapter 206: Black is not black

Hai Rui was actually in a very angry mood tonight, he guessed that it was Lin Tailai who caused him to be besieged by women, but on the surface, he had to admit the grace of saving his life.

After all, in the eyes of most people, it was Lin Tailai who rescued Hai Rui from danger, and even avoided Hai Qingtian's reputation from being damaged.

In this mentality, Hai Rui can be forced to tolerate Lin Tailai's "substitution" of the Mid-Autumn Festival, but don't think about praise, especially Lin Tailai's attitude is quite "provocative".

And Lin Tailai was not ambiguous, and after Hai Rui's bad comments, he came up with one Mid-Autumn Festival word after another.

Everyone knows that Hai Rui is a paranoid person, and he has a stubborn energy when encountering problems, so he also gives bad reviews again and again.

After the bad review, it was a new Mid-Autumn Festival, and Lin Tailai and Hai Rui seemed to be competitive, falling into an infinite loop.

Lin Tailai has published ten Mid-Autumn Festival words, each of which is more than 100 words long, which is quite time-consuming.

It was almost midnight, and it seemed that all the celebrities present had become spectators, numbly watching Lin Tailai throw out his works one after another.

This Mid-Autumn Festival night gathering, I really have no experience.

Whenever Lin Tailai questioned Hai Rui, "Is it okay?" to him, the leader of the old alliance seemed to feel that he was asking himself "whether to accept it".

He regretted why he let Hai Jui get on the ship, why he left Hai Jui as a Dharma protector, and why he stopped Hai Jui when he wanted to leave.

After ten consecutive shots, Hai Rui finally gave in helplessly, and said casually: "This article is acceptable." ”

Lin Daguanren's performance as an uninvited guest has just come to an end, but at this time, Yaji has already "exhausted", and everyone's interest is not high.

First, because of the shocking ten consecutive Mid-Autumn Festival words, which add up to more than 1,000 words, no matter how well others perform, they can't steal the limelight, and what enthusiasm can they have.

The second is that Lin Tailai's ten words are all above the level, and all of them exceed the quality of the poems prepared by others, how can others still be in the mood to come out and show off.

Therefore, before the third watch, the Mid-Autumn Festival night gathering ended hastily.

The next day, news came out that the leader of the Wang Lao League fell ill. The other two literary conferences originally scheduled were also temporarily cancelled.

So everyone knew that this literary conference would probably end in vain again, and the new five sons of the retro sect would have a difficult birth again.

It is also said through the grapevine that the leader of the old alliance Wang believes that the current new five sons cannot fight against Lin Tailai at all, so he wants to wait for a strong enough rookie to appear.

After Lin Tailai passed through the Mid-Autumn Festival, he became famous on the Qinhuai River again.

After the three major battles of Changbanqiao's resistance to the scholars, the Confucian Temple's debate to defeat Gu Xiancheng, and the ten thousand-character Mid-Autumn Festival words, Lin Tailai has been known and known to everyone on both sides of the Qinhuai River.

Many years later, some people may not remember who Xie Yuan is in this township test, but they will definitely be able to remember Lin Tailai, a character who appeared in the Qinhuai River like a meteor.

After the Qingliu of the Donglin School and the Retro School of the sect died down, before the end of August, no one in the literary world organized large-scale activities, but there was still some news that was not big or small.

For example, Ma Xianglan, the eldest sister of Nanqu Xingshou and the first of the twelve hairpins in Jinling, successfully organized the sisters in Quzhong to assemble and rebel against Hai Qingtian on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Just as Ma Xianglan's prestige in the old courtyard of Qinhuai climbed to a new height, she suddenly announced that she would retire behind closed doors and no longer accept customers publicly, and a generation of legendary prostitutes seemed to come to an end.

After Lin Tailai heard about it, he ran from the free boarding room of the Guozi Prison to Zhao Caiji's house, and said to Zhao Caiji proudly:

"I said that I want you to become the first of the twelve hairpins in Jinling! Now that you've said and done, you're already number one, how can you thank me? ”

Zhao Caiji still seems to be unhappy, "But you have made Ma Xianglan the first Ji of the Southern Song of the Ming Dynasty in the 200th century!" ”

Zhao Caiji knew that on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Ma Xianglan organized the sisters in the line to resist Hai Qingtian's imprisonment, which was provoked by Lin Tailai, and Lin Tailai also provided credit endorsement.

Lin Tailai replied: "As the saying goes, the times create heroes, you don't dare to fight, others dare to fight, what else do you have to complain about?"

Besides, she has retired, what do you care about, you just say that you are not the first of the twelve hairpins in Jinling now, right? ”

Aunt Zhao Caiji came, and she blew Lin Tailai, who just wanted to be free, away.

Lin Daguan couldn't help but sigh and said, "The birds are good and the bows are hidden, and the cunning rabbits are dead and the lackeys are cooked", and returned to the Guozijian and continued to sweep the floor.

At the beginning, he said that he made a big vow to clean for 36 days, but it has only been more than 20 days, and he can only continue to insist on it for his personal reputation.

At the end of August, the township trial list was released, which had nothing to do with Lin Tailai, and he didn't bother to pay attention to it.

The township test list was hung on the shadow wall of Yingtianfu Mansion, and countless people in the city came to see the excitement, and there were crowds of people under the list, and it was a scene of joy and sorrow for a few families.

Guozijian is in the north of the city, not too far from the Yingtianfu Mansion in the north of the city.

Therefore, many scholars who did not like crowds sent their servants to see the list, and they themselves came to the Confucius Temple of Guozijian for their final prayers.

Lin Daguan naturally would not let go of this opportunity to brush up on his sense of existence, and carefully swept the floor back and forth at the gate of Dacheng Hall, trying to ensure that every scholar who came to Shangxiang could notice him.

Inadvertently, Lin Tailai saw two acquaintances walking outside the door of Dacheng Palace, which were a pair of friends Dong Qichang and Chen Jiru from Songjiang Mansion.

At this time, Dong Qichang was depressed, and Chen Jiru was comforting him.

Anyway, they have done big things together, Lin Tailai asked in surprise: "Dong Sheng, what's wrong?" The list shouldn't have been released yet, right? ”

Dong Qichang didn't want to speak, so Chen Jiru replied on his behalf: "The leader of the old alliance Wang suspected that he had leaked the news, so he was removed from the retro sect. ”

can only say that this was all done by himself, on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Dong Qichang voluntarily followed Lin Tailai to the same boat in order to be in the limelight, and then rescued Hai Rui.

A retro rookie actually acts together with the biggest civil enemy, this is a mistake!

In fact, Lin Daguan carried Hai Rui on his back, and Dong Qichang was drowned by the Women's Army, and he had a very good time.

But after finishing it, he regretted that this was a common disease among men, Dong Qichang looked up to the sky and sighed:

"I spent more than a month wandering flowers, I didn't take the review seriously, I didn't pay attention to the exam, and I was removed from the retro sect, what a waste of time, and it will be difficult to move in the literary world in the future."

Chen Jiru turned his head again and encouraged: "Just concentrate on studying after going back, and come back to the exam in three years!"

As long as you can win the lift, everything will not be a problem after the fame is in hand! ”

"Stop! That's all I can think about. Dong Qichang cheered up and said.

At this time, a servant rushed over, pounced in front of Dong Qichang and Chen Jiru and shouted: "It's time to release the list!" ”

Then he quickly reported the results: "I saw the name of Master Dong on the list!" ”

Chen Jiru asked eagerly, "What about me?" ”

The servant replied, "No." ”

This result made a pair of friends stunned, and they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.

Chen Jiru sat down on the steps in despair, feeling uncomfortable and wanting to cry, the biggest discomfort in life is comparison!

I worked hard to review but failed, and my friend Dong Qichang eats, drinks and has fun every day, why did he pass the exam?

Dong Qichang didn't dare to celebrate now, squatted down with joy, and said to his friend sadly: "I didn't expect this either." ”

Then he pointed to Lin Tailai and said to Chen Jiru: "Look at Lin Sheng, his fame has spread all over Nanjing City, isn't it also nameless?" What else can't you think of? ”

Chen Jiru nodded subconsciously, even Lin Tailai was not on the list, what did he have to complain about?

Lin Tai couldn't stand it anymore, and said to Dong Qichang: "I wrote a letter to the tax envoy of the king of Hushu Pass, on the way home, you take him to Hushu Pass first!"

The royal tax envoy has experience, and must know how to comfort him! ”

The joys and sorrows of the liberal arts township exam, Wusheng Lin Tailai didn't understand, but he was about to usher in his own exam.

At the end of August, the list of liberal arts township examinations was released, and the Wuju township examinations were held in September.

The scale of the Wuke Township Examination is much smaller than that of the liberal arts, and a total of hundreds of people participated, and finally 30 Wuju people were selected.

When Wuke reached the level of the township test, the system was very formal, not as random and chaotic as the prefecture and county.

What later generations may not know much about is that Wuju has a written exam, and it is very heavy.

Martial arts students who participate in the martial arts must first test the strategy theory, and answer a policy and make a discussion according to the topic in the literary field.

The admission principle of martial arts is "to decide to stay by strategy, and to score the superior by martial arts".

It can only be said that this examination system is too suitable for Lin Tai. A person who is going to take the liberal arts exam, will he still be afraid of strategy?

Although Lin Daguan is not a military professional, he has been reviewing the "Seven Books of Martial Arts" in the past few months, and later generations have experienced the influence of network information, and he still has a lot of experience in key politics.

Other martial arts students can write 1,800 words in answering questions, but Lin Daguan wrote more than 6,000 words in two questions.

With this absolute order of magnitude gap in the literary field, if the examiner dares to eliminate Lin Daguan, Lin Daguan will dare to answer the question and sue the royal court.

After the strategy exam, it was time for Lin Daguan's favorite martial arts exam.

For Lin Daguan, there is no fairer exam in the world!

In the earliest days of martial arts, the martial arts part only tested foot archery and mounted archery, which was very unfavorable for civilian candidates like Lin Tailai.

Later, in order to expand the scope of materials, the martial arts examination was expanded to three items, namely bow and horse, brawl, and sword and gun.

Candidates must choose two of the three to participate, and only those who have obtained the first class in the two will be eligible to be selected.

For Lin Tailai, of course, he directly skipped the bow horse and chose brawny and knife and gun.

When autumn came on September 8, Lin Daguan went to the colonel's field.

Hundreds of candidates stood under the stage and accepted the roll call, this kind of martial arts exam is not like a literary field, there is no need to enter the search.

The examiners were all on the platform, and Lin Daguan looked up and saw Wang Xun, the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, who was also the chief examiner.

And Wang Xun is surrounded by a martial artist, Lin Tailai speculates that he is the Minister of Nanjing City Garrison and Li Yangong, the Marquis of Linhuai, and it is estimated that he is the deputy chief examiner or something.

Behind the martial arts minister who is suspected of being Li Yangong is Li Zongcheng, whom Lin Tailai had seen when he first arrived in Nanjing.

At this time, Li Zongcheng also saw Lin Tailai and couldn't help but glare angrily, but Lin Daguan didn't care at all.

If the martial arts exam can still be hacked by you, it will be a big joke.

Today's strength, tomorrow's swords and guns, are all projects that Lin Tailai participates in.

After the roll call, a sergeant carried two sets of stone piers and came to the point general's platform.

The weights are all unified in the world, respectively 200 catties, 250 catties, 300 catties, and another 500 catties as an ornament.

When the other martial artists were fighting with two or three hundred catties of stone piers, Lin Tailai, who was called by name, stepped forward, directly selected five hundred catties of stone piers, and lifted the stone piers between his waist and abdomen according to the prescribed actions.

In hundreds of horrified eyes, the first place in the brawn project was easily obtained. The unique lifting of 500 catties of stone piers, even if you want to be black, you can't get black.

After coming out of the school ground, Lin Tailai did not stop and quickly returned to Guozijian.

Why did Lin Daguan eat and live in Guozijian after the exam, just to prevent off-the-spot tricks.

Although the conditions inside Guozijian are average, they are safer than the inns and goulan places outside.

Lin Tailai didn't know if anyone was targeting him, but at least he felt more at ease living in the Guozi Prison.

If it weren't for Zhao Zhigao's resolute opposition, Lin Tailai would have wanted to lay a floor in the Dacheng Palace.

The next day, it was still the same school field, and the knife and gun project exam began.

Li Yangong, the minister of the Nanjing garrison and the marquis of Linhuai, said to Wang Xuan, the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department:

"I heard that Lin Tai is here, and his mind is on the literary world, and it is a waste to give him martial arts fame."

As he was talking, Lin Tailai, who happened to be named, held a big gun in his hand, casually pulled a gun, and then reported to the general on the stage in a loud voice:

"So that the princes know that the marksmanship was passed down by Qi Shaobao, and the Shenwei water gun used by Qi Shaobao was also given to Zaixia!

At that time, Qi Shaobao said that if he was familiar with this set of marksmanship, and he could be familiar with the Seven Classics of Martial Arts, it would not be a problem to seize a Xie Yuan! ”

Everyone: "."

Just like yesterday, hundreds of eyes were looking at Lin Tailai together.

Who says martial arts exams are bad for cheating? If you report your marksmanship like this, you are pure cheating! The one who also stepped on the horse openly asked for Xie Yuan!

As the chief examiner, Wang Xun said helplessly to Li Yangong: "The headquarters wants to ask the prince, how can you depose him?" It's so dark. ”

A candidate who has 6,000 words of Wen Nengshui, 500 catties of stone piers, and marksmanship is passed on from Qi Jiguang.

A candidate who openly staged a thousand martial arts before the exam, penetrated the north bank of the Qinhuai River from the Tixue Academy, and hundreds of officers and soldiers could not stop him.

To tell the truth, if you don't give Wuke Xie Yuan, you will be scolded for being shady, how to eliminate it?

It's not that Lin Tailai can't contact the big guy behind him, if it's so easy to hack, Wang Shizhen would have done it a long time ago, and can he still let him jump up to now?

If you want to work in a black box, you must also abide by the basic logic, regardless of the chaos and darkness of the impact, and in the end, you must put yourself in it and end up together.

After the exam, Lin Tailai's biggest feeling was that it would be nice if the liberal arts exam could be as simple and fair as martial arts.

The scale of the Wuke Township test is small, and there is no need to read tens of thousands of papers, and the results come out quickly.

So within two days, the list was released, and the undergraduate Nanzhili Township tried to win 30 Zhongwu people, and Xie Yuan was Lin Tailai, a member of the Wuxian household in Suzhou Prefecture.

The first in the literary field, the first in the martial arts field, and the first in the knife and gun project, so this solution is well deserved.

Lin Daguan turned into a martial artist, and the title of Daguan became more worthy of the name.

At this time, many people who had only recently heard the legend of Lin Tailai woke up like a dream.

It turned out that Suzhou Lin Sheng, who punched the academic Donglin faction and kicked the retro faction in the literary world, came to Nanjing to participate in the martial arts exam!

The end of the trip to Nanjing is coming to an end, ask for a final monthly pass, and stimulate the brewing of a new plot!
