Since that day, Cheng Jingzhou and Xie Rongzhao have obviously noticed that the relationship between them and Zhao Yue has become closer, or rather, Zhao Yue has been more casual when talking to them, at least no longer holding an official stand.

After Xie Xiuwen dealt with the succession, he thought that he had to rush back to Fucheng, the day of the release of the list was approaching, and he was not over, and he was also uneasy.

Grandma Xie originally wanted to let him stay at home for a few more days, so that even if he was successful, he would be able to miss the Luming Banquet in Fucheng, at least not let him make too many friends, let alone show his talent in front of nobles.

Na Cheng thought, before her old man could speak, the person had already left.

Grandma Xie realized that she seemed to be really getting farther and farther away from this son.

Xie Xiuwen went back to Fucheng this time, and he still took Douzi and Xie Zhou with him.

The day before the list was released, Zhao Yue came to visit Xie Rongzhao again, and it just so happened that he met Xie Xiuwen.

Xie Xiuwen had only heard his daughter and Cheng Jingzhou mention this person, but he never thought that he would meet at this time.

"I've seen Lord Zhao."

"Xie Xiucai doesn't have to be polite, the list will be released tomorrow, maybe I have to change my voice and call you to thank you."

Xie Xiuwen's expression was as usual: "Lord Xie is auspicious." ”

Xie Xiuwen already knew about the events of that day, and once again refreshed his insight about his daughter's good luck, and he had to admit that the current little good boy was his lucky star.

"I always have to be grateful for saving me once, I don't know if she has discussed with you, how do you need me to thank you?"

"Don't dare. I also heard Qiang Bao mention this matter yesterday, don't hide it from the adult, the student discussed it with her, and it was originally her unintentional move, and the adult is very good, and the secret weapon may not be able to hurt the adult, so there is no need to mention this matter again. ”

Zhao Yue raised his eyebrows: "Xie Xiucai thinks that the master's life is not worth mentioning, or does he think that the reward given by the master is not enough in exchange for the life-saving grace this time?" ”

That's a bit of a weight.

Xie Xiuwen's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly saluted: "Students don't dare!" Please forgive me. ”

"Humph! Okay, don't refuse, the master is the prestige of the Hou Shizi, presumably Xie Xiucai also knows, I can owe this favor first, and when you go to Beijing in Japan, the master will definitely protect one or two. ”

The implication is that when you arrive in the capital one day, I will also protect you, which can be regarded as repaying the grace of saving your life this time.

Xie Xiuwen was speechless for a while, and if he refused, this master was afraid that he would really be angry.

The next day, Cheng Jingzhou sent Changsheng and Douzi to see the list, while the others sat nervously under the osmanthus tree in the courtyard and waited.

Xie Rong Zhaodian was in Xie Xiuwen's arms: "Daddy is relieved, he will definitely be able to win this time." ”

Xie Rongzhao's words were not to comfort him, but to think about his real sixty taels of silver, but she had to win, otherwise, she would not be happy if she gave it to others for nothing.

"Daddy, I've always been lucky, you forgot that I kissed you before, and prepared something for you to enter the Tribute Academy, this time you will definitely have a good result, you just wait for the messenger to come."

Xie Xiuwen touched his daughter's head, and his expression was really much relaxed.

Cheng Jingzhou is still young in the end, even if he is usually calm, he is a little anxious at this time.

He sat for a while, and then began to walk back and forth in the courtyard, and from time to time he went to the door to probe the probe, so to speak, almost writing the word anxious on his face.

Soon, Changsheng and Douzi ran back one after the other, their faces beaming.

"Congratulations, Childe, you've won!"

"Congratulations, Master Xie, you won the first place!"

The voices of the two sounded one after the other, and most of the words overlapped so much that several of them did not hear clearly.

"Don't worry, say it alone."

Cheng Jingzhou's eyes were hot at this moment, and from their expressions, they could tell that they were hit.

"Childe, Master Xie has won the first place, it is Xie Yuangong!"

Changsheng spoke crisply and clearly, and directly explained his words clearly.

Everyone was a little surprised.

Xie Xiuwen also felt that it was unlikely, he was sure, but he was not sure that he could solve the yuan.

He originally thought that his best result should be in the top ten, but as for the number of places, he really didn't dare to guess.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the first place!

Xie Xiuwen really felt that she might have been stained with the light of a good treasure for a while, she must have given her good luck to herself, otherwise, how could she be so easy to understand the yuan?

He still remembers that when he silently came out of the answer and the article, Xu Shanchang also said that his article was too sharp, and the current Lord Thorn Shi does not like such a sharp point of view, but the article is well written, there is no problem with the middle move, if it goes well, it should be able to enter the top ten.

How can it become a solution now?

If you want to say that this ranking, there is really a bit of luck in it.

When reading the history of the assassination this time, he did feel that Xie Xiuwen's article was too sharp, and he originally wanted to give him the eighth place, but the officials sent by the state government Xuezheng and the Ministry of Rites felt that his article was very well written.

It is also a coincidence that the officials sent by the Ministry of Rites this time happen to be loyal to the emperor, and now the emperor is vigorously rectifying the people's livelihood, so he naturally likes this kind of young talent with momentum, so that he can assist the emperor to do a big career in the future.

As a result, Xie Xiuwen's article was pushed to the first place.

The chief examiner in charge of the scientific examination in the Ministry of Rites felt that it should be the first, and it was useless for Lord Assassin Shi to dislike it.

Several other examiners have no opinion, after all, this splendid article alone is enough to be impressive.

Xie Xiuwen hadn't fully accepted the news here, and there were already people outside cheering and coming over to report the good news.

Changsheng and Douzi also remembered that there were still firecrackers that had not been set off, so they immediately went to open the courtyard door first, so that the official messenger who reported the good news came in first.

Xie Xiuwen thanked him, and sent the prepared purse out, and the two officials continued to inform the other movers with a smile.

Xie Rongzhao and Cheng Jingzhou quietly bit their ears.

"Brother Jingzhou, when are we going to exchange the silver?"

The corners of Cheng Jingzhou's mouth twitched, and it is estimated that there are no more than three people in the whole city, and this time the dealer is afraid that it will not be so easy to pay for it.

Fortunately, they don't have a backstage to rely on!

So, after the end of the day, the two gave the bill to a guard beside Zhao Yue, and he came forward to exchange the silver.

Xie Xiuwen understands that Xie Rongzhao can get a fifty taels of head, and a share of four hundred and fifty taels, so, he really makes a profit!

"Great, this time Daddy went to the capital to catch the exam."

Cheng Jingzhou was puzzled: "Don't you have a thousand taels of silver tickets in your hand?" ”

Xie Rongzhao pouted: "There are only nine hundred taels left, have you forgotten to deduct one hundred taels?" This is the last life-saving money, and when I get to the capital, I have to think of ways to help A-Niang find a money-making business. ”
