Chapter 173: The Protagonist of Rumors
In fact, there have been some strange rumors in the provincial capital in the past few days, and it is said that the solution of the provincial test this time has been decided. It is said that the system of the imperial examination is strict, especially from the provincial examination, and the papers must be sealed and obscured, and it is theoretically unlikely that the internal operation is possible.
But the science field is dark, and fraud has not happened before, so as a talent who has read poetry and books, he would rather believe it, and therefore become hostile to the protagonist of this rumor.
The protagonist is, of course, Ye Xingyuan. Although he has deliberately kept a low profile in the provincial capital, he is unwilling to show his head and make branches, but he has to stand out after all, he is too good to be stopped.
As soon as he arrived at the Peach Blossom Cultural Meeting in the provincial capital, Ye Xingyuan pushed Tang Shiyan to come out to block the gun, which reduced a lot of trouble. But after that, the displacement incident was urgent, and he had to deal with it personally, which inevitably showed his face in front of people with a heart.
After that, Ye Xingyuan was not arrogant or impatient, and hid in the small building to study in a unified manner, but he won back a lot. It's a pity that the tree wants to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop, and the announcement and withdrawal of the list of scientific expeditions completely pushed Ye Xingyuan to the cusp.
The three adults in the province made an appointment to meet Ye Xingyuan at the same time, Wang Xuezheng had obviously sent a list of those who had passed the scientific examination, Ye Xingyuan was not on the list, but he was forced to withdraw it, and when the list was reissued, Ye Xingyuan ranked first again.
After that, Ye Xingyuan was busy with the auspiciousness of the homeless people and the crow god, and he was not in the provincial capital, but the rumors have not been broken. By the time he returned to Jiangzhou and continued to live in the Raven Temple to study, the rumors had become rampant, and finally evolved into what it is now.
Some people say that there is a clear eye, "Ye Xingyuan has a very deep background, I am afraid that he has something to do with the bigwigs in Beijing, you see that he is connected to the head of the county test, but the article has never been circulated in the world, it is said that they are all secretly sent to Beijing, how can there be this reason?"
Wang Xuezheng didn't know the inside story and suffered a dumb loss. The dignified provincial school administration had to knock out his teeth and swallow blood, and gave him the first place in the scientific examination again. From this alone, you can know that Ye Xingyuan is powerful!"
Someone retorted: "Having said that, it is not clear that Ye Xingyuan will be able to determine the solution internally, and the provincial test is different from the scientific examination made by Wang Xuezheng on a whim." In front of everyone's eyes, Xie Yuan's position is privately conferred and accepted, aren't you afraid of arousing public anger?"
The person who spoke before sneered, "Naive! Have you ever heard that the three lords of Futai, Fantai, and Zhentai all wanted to summon Ye Xingyuan alone? Do you think about what kind of power is behind him? The position of Xie Yuan is a great matter for us." But for a person like him, it's just a step!"
Everyone doesn't understand the inside story of the homeless people, and even if they have heard about it, they only know a little about it. Seeing that the three adults in the province all looked at Ye Xingyuan differently, Wang Xuezheng was disgraced when he was against him, and he only felt that Ye Xingyuan might have a powerful backstage, so he couldn't help but have different plans in his heart.
The arrogant and arrogant person is not angry, and he can't wait to break the corpse of this villain who walks through the back door. But there are also people who are afraid and envious in their hearts, and they want to get on the pole and want to stutter. This rally before the provincial test. It is the best opportunity for all kinds of people to contact Ye Xingyuan.
Xiucai loves gatherings, and there is a small episode on weekdays, and a large episode on five days, and now it is taking advantage of the provincial test. It is rare for the elites of various prefectures and counties to gather together, and it is a strange thing not to gather.
This literary meeting was initiated by several rich sons in the province, who borrowed the old mansion garden of an official eunuch, although it was not as luxurious as Mu Wan's family. But it is fine and elegant, quite the style of a reader.
Ye Xingyuan was late to Tang Shiyan, and he wanted to enter the door in a low-key manner. It's a pity that although Xiucai in the province may not be able to recognize Ye Xingyuan, how can he not know Tang Shiyan, who has made a fortune with shit luck?
Tang Shiyan and Ye Xingyuan are good friends, since he has been recognized, there are naturally many people who pay attention to the people around Tang Shiyan. Seeing that this person has a long body, a calm face, and although he is young, his momentum is very extraordinary, and he has a self-determination in his heart.
"This person is Ye Xingyuan, I thought it was a three-headed and six-armed figure, but it turned out to be nothing more than that!" A man in brocade glanced at him in disgust and asked the people around him in a low voice. This person's surname is Qin Minglin, he is the son of the official eunuch of Jiangzhou, he is famous, he was only 14 years old three years ago and was admitted to Xiucai, because of the loss of his mother and filial piety, he did not participate in the provincial examination, and it has been delayed until today.
Qin Lin is conceited and talented, and he has studied hard behind closed doors for three years, and his goal is not only to make a name for himself, but to win the championship in one fell swoop in order to show his ability. But this time there was a Ye Xingyuan, it is said that he is the first, so how can he not be angry?
Someone next to him was startled, and hurriedly persuaded: "Brother Qin, silence! This person has an extraordinary background, although your Qin family has some power in Jiangzhou, how can you compare with him? Don't mess with him!"
Qin Lin's face turned pale, and although he was afraid in his heart, he still said with a stiff mouth: "What are you afraid of him doing?
Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi! Don't bully the young man into poverty! When I win the position of Xie Yuan in the provincial examination, I can suppress this person before I can raise my eyebrows!"
The person who persuaded him smiled bitterly and said: "With Brother Qin's talent and learning, if there is no Ye Xingyuan, this Xie Yuan will naturally be like a bag to get something." Only now that he has him, don't daydream and delusional, first take a fame, and then slowly figure it out in the future. ”
This person is also a good person, the human rights behind Ye Xingyuan are in flames, and he can occupy the top of the two-level case without even publishing the article, judging from the current situation, he is bound to win the first place in this provincial test, so he can only wronged Qin Lin.
"Damn!" Qin Lin clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and said sadly: "The princes of the court and the central government are dazed, and they actually let such a person who does not learn and has no skills to take the position, how can I allow him? You wait, I will tear his painting skin!"
Qin Lin held his head high, and strode away in the direction of Ye Xingyuan, and the people who persuaded him were dumbfounded, seeing that he was looking for his own death, where did he dare to be verbose, and turned his head and drilled into the pile of people, just as if he didn't know him.
Ye Xingyuan was surrounded by a bunch of people, and he was overwhelmed. He thought that at this literary meeting, someone would inevitably suppress him and want to step on him to take the position, so he just took this opportunity to slap his face with poetry and essays, and brush up his reputation.
I don't want it to be completely different from what he imagined, and when I came to this meeting, most people poured up like flies to flatter. Ye Xingyuan sighed deeply at this time, but after just one year, his current identity and status are very different.
Thinking about a year ago, he was just an ignorant boy in the countryside, even the teacher of social studies could step on his feet, and now he has overcome all the obstacles all the way, passed the county test and the government test, and fought the show to raise people, maneuvering between the dragon palace, gods, and high-ranking officials, retreating from the rebellion of the displaced people, even if it is repeatedly low-key, after all, in this Jiangzhou provincial capital, no one dares to underestimate him anymore.
As long as he wins again, Ye Xingyuan will be able to occupy his heel in this place. In the future, there is no need to struggle in the province, but to look far, staring at the position of Jinshi, and from then on, he will be beyond the world and truly embark on the official road.
Thinking of this, Ye Xingyuan became more and more calm, and only talked with the show in a light tone. This casual attitude makes people more and more awe-inspiring, and the talents dare not make mistakes, and their words become more and more cautious.
Qin Lin walked to everyone's side, listening to these incorruptible and shameless guys scrambling to pat Ye Xingyuan's ass, he was even more angry, he pushed away the crowd with one hand, squeezed in front of Ye Xingyuan, and said bluntly: "In Xiajiang Prefecture Qin Lin, I heard that Ye Gongzi is talented and clever, so I came to ask for advice!"
Ye Xingyuan glanced at him, and said indifferently: "Don't dare, if Brother Qin has any questions, today's sages are gathered, you might as well bring it up and discuss it together." ”
Where is this to ask for advice, it is clearly here to find fault. Ye Xingyuan knew it in his heart, but now that he was in the forest, of course there would be some people who didn't open his eyes to bump into him, and now he didn't care about it.
Qin Lin listened to Ye Xingyuan's words, but he was cowardly, and sneered and ridiculed, "Ye Gongzi has a good reputation in the county test and the government test. But he doesn't want to answer my question, is it because he only does miscellaneous studies and rarely reads the books of the sages, so his heart is empty?"
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding talents were silent, looking down at their noses and noses, and all said that they had nothing to do with themselves, for fear that Ye Xingyuan would be angry. This big hat is buttoned down, it is equivalent to insulting in person, Ye Xingyuan is not angry, Qin Lin died by himself, don't affect them.
Ye Xingyuan laughed and laughed, this kid was dizzy, right? Even if he thought so in his heart, shouldn't he not say it to his face at all, like a shrew scolding the street, how unqualified?
Ye Xingyuan's closest opponents are big names at the level of Futai, Fantai, and Zhentai, even if it is Zhu Zhen and Zhu Ning'er, at least he is the commander of 10,000 people. Everyone didn't scold, but he was a little uncomfortable with this low-level rhythm of abuse and provocation.
However, he is talented, not to mention standing high and seeing far, he is not afraid, so he smiled and said: "Brother Qin, although I am not talented, it is enough to guide you." ”
Qin Lin was overjoyed, not caring about the irony in Ye Xingyuan's words. I'm afraid that you will pretend to be dead and refuse to deal with it, since you dare to answer, then what kind of knowledge can you, the villain who walks through the back door, look at me and ask you down, shameful!
He sneered again: "The sage has a saying, 'The gentleman is virtuous, the villain is the soil', 'The gentleman is harmonious but different, the villain is the same but not harmonious', 'The gentleman is easy to do but difficult to please, and the villain is easy to be happy but difficult to do'." I want to ask Ye Gongzi, what do these words mean?"
These few sentences are all from the "Analects", and they are not difficult words, just find a Mr. Mengxue to explain, so why ask Ye Xingyuan for advice? Qin Lin asked like this, obviously comparing himself with a gentleman, and denounced Ye Xingyuan as a villain. A group of showmen were even more embarrassed, and they didn't know whether they should speak out to persuade them.
Ye Xingyuan smiled secretly, the other party's method, but he was tired of playing eight hundred years ago, this Qin Gongzi didn't understand the situation, he was really a class axe, didn't he know that he was the first person to scold the street known as a scholar......?
