Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember it in a second, never lose it!

In fact, Fang Jifan didn't care too much about this rural examination.

The only few words I heard were just complaints about this year's test questions from outside.

The paper was kept in a sealed form, and then the chief examiner led the examiners to start marking the papers in the Gong Yuan.

Zhang Sheng's mood is quite happy.

Because in his impression, if he could write a passable eight-legged essay test paper for this question, it would not be much.

In this subject, I am afraid that the articles that can barely answer the questions are enough to be shortlisted.

It's just... reading the paper all the way, he felt something was wrong.

Actually, among them, I found a lot of good articles.

In just one day, I came up with such a strange problem that many people had no time to conceive it. Even if they barely solved the problem, it would be extremely difficult to undertake it.

How could there be so many people... writing articles eloquently?

In Northern Zhili, among the two capitals and thirteen provinces, the level of the rural examination has never been high. Zhang Sheng believes that if such a question is placed in the rural examinations of Southern Zhili, Jiangxi, and Zhejiang, all the examinees there will stand out. It is not uncommon for a large number of articles that can answer the questions to be published, and there may be a few good articles.

But this is Beizhili.

Zhang Sheng went all the way to review, dumbfounded, Beizhili... When did it become so abnormal?

On the third day, he began to lose heart.

This is absolutely insane.

There were more than twice as many articles written neatly and fluently as he had imagined. From those articles, he could even feel a sense of calmness and unhurriedness.

Before the start of the exam, he kept this question in his heart, so there was no possibility of leaking it...

It's really weird...

…………

After reading the papers, it's time to prepare for the rankings.

The news has come out that the Tribute Court has selected the ninth day of November, which is an auspicious day, and the list will be released on time.

Hearing that the rankings were released on the ninth day of the lunar new year, Fang Jifan was really taken aback.

In fact, the mere rural examination, to be honest, he didn't have much interest in it.

My six disciples, in the past, pressed all the scholars in the world to the ground and rubbed them repeatedly several times.

It's just... I heard that thirteen students from Xishan Academy took part in the provincial examination, but Fang Jifan also paid attention.

Early in the morning of the ninth day.

The sky is still snowing heavily, and the snow on the ground is an inch thick, and the ground is getting colder and colder!

Fang Jifan got up late, and Xiao Xiangxiang dressed Fang Jifan. Fang Jifan patted her thin shoulders and said, "It's early in the morning, are you freezing? Come, young master, give me a hug."

In the past, playing streaming was due to the needs of brain disease, but now, it seems to be a bit of a habit.

Sure enough, the environment will change a person. When Fang Jifan blurted out this sentence, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Out of the mud but not stained, clean and clean but not demonic. Sure enough, only sages can do it. This young master has only achieved half of it. , is still a few inches away from the sages.

Xiao Xiangxiang's face was slightly pink, with a little shame, she raised her pretty face and said: "Master, others saw it, it's not good."

She didn't say it was bad, but said that it was not good for others to see it.

"..." means that if others can't see it, they can...

The thoughts of the daughter's family are really deep, and there are too many routines.

Fang Jifan is a man after all, and Xiao Xiangxiang has shown her intentions in many ways. Fang Jifan was a little distracted, but he managed to stabilize his mind, and said instead: "Recently, you are studying?"

"Yes, I'm studying the Four Books for Women." Xiao Xiangxiang said proudly, "Young master, I already know how to read, so it's not difficult to know how to read."

Fang Jifan frowned and said, "Don't read the Four Books for Women, Biography of Martyrs, these are all harmful things, what's the use of learning them?"

"..." Xiao Xiangxiang didn't show any surprise on her face, she was no stranger to Fang Jifan's 'strange talk'.

"Next time, I'll find some good books for you to read." Fang Jifan gave her a wicked smile, and walked out excitedly.

Today I have to go to Xishan first to arrange the exit of the Tuntian Thousand Households.

I have to go there quickly, and I have to come back early, and then I will see how the results of the list are released.

………………

Forbidden City.

Today, Emperor Hongzhi also woke up early. When he came out of his bedroom, the first thing he asked was: "Today is the provincial examination, right?"

Today's attendant is Xiao Jing, hurriedly said respectfully: "Yes."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded lightly, and then with his hands behind his back, he stepped onto the chariot and ordered: "The list is released, and you will report to me as soon as possible."

"The servant obeys the order." Xiao Jing naturally knew what it meant.

The reason why His Majesty is interested in the mere Shuntianfu Township Examination is because of Liu Jian. Liu Jian won the trust of His Majesty. When he was in the East Palace, Concubine Wan Gui was in disorder. It was the ministers headed by Liu Jian who tried their best to protect the crown prince at that time, who is now Emperor Hongzhi, so that Concubine Wan Gui did not succeed in her mind.

Since then, His Majesty has inherited the great rule, and Liu Jian has worked hard with Emperor Hongzhi for ten years, handling state affairs.

This is not only the friendship between monarchs and ministers, but also friends, and no one can replace it.

As for Liu Jie, although His Majesty didn't pay much attention to him in the past, and saw him rarely, but His Majesty finally

It was because of Liu Jian that he was treated as a nephew.

How much Your Majesty should hope that Liu Jie can become a juren, even if it is only at the end, it is something to celebrate.

…………

When it comes to the day when the list is released, no matter how much snow falls or how cold the weather is, the capital will be more lively than usual.

Early on, there were shopkeepers who set up stalls outside the Gongyuan.

Liu Jie also woke up early, and then went out alone.

In fact, this time, he didn't want to read the list, but if he didn't, he was even more restless at home, and he still couldn't be reconciled after all.

So, stepping on the snow and facing the cold wind, Liu Jie came to the list early.

At this time, there were actually countless students waiting here, and outside the entire Gongyuan, there was a lot of voices.

Some people also recognized Liu Jielai and greeted each other.

Liu Jie was anxious and depressed at home for many days, not knowing whether he would have a chance. In the midst of this anxiety, standing at the bottom of this list, with the noisy voices of countless people around him, he felt restless.

He couldn't help thinking in his heart, if he doesn't win this time, he can study in Xishan with peace of mind from now on. Stereotypes, why should one decide one's fate and judge one's knowledge.

He stood numbly, thinking wildly in his mind, as if he was crazy.

At this time, I finally heard someone shouting loudly: "Here comes the list..."

Sure enough, the middle door of the Gong Yuan was finally opened, and the scribes carefully held the sealed list, opened the first list, and posted it.

The crowd of heads was like a wave, and countless people hung their necks, staring at the list.

"I hit it, I hit it..."

Someone yelled excitedly.

More people have stopped breathing, still staring at the list.

The second list was posted.

However, Liu Jie's name was not included in these two lists.

Liu Jie became disheartened and cold, the last hope in his heart froze a little bit in this cold winter!

There is only the last one left on the list, and there is no one at the end, let alone this list with a higher ranking. It seems that this time... is another failure.

He couldn't help smiling wryly, shaking his head.

This...maybe it really is fate.

The book of a lifetime... Now, nothing has been exchanged, so I should really accept my fate!

Tears had unconsciously wet the skirt of his clothes.

A lifetime of painstaking efforts, thirty years of cold window, worth nothing!

But when the last list was posted, Liu Jie subconsciously looked up.

There are about one hundred and fifty people admitted this time.

And the last list obviously has forty or fifty names.

Liu Jie's tears were blurred and he had to rub his eyes.

Then, he started to look from the bottom of the list.

No…………

still no...

still none……

When I looked from bottom to top, I saw almost 30 people, but there was still no name.

But when he continued to look, he saw a name——Zhao Xing.

This person...has won the prize, and...was held high in the top sixteen or seventeen places.

Liu Jie couldn't be more familiar with this person. Like himself, he was studying in Xishan.

Then, he continued to watch... Yang Wenchang.

It was him...

Yang Wenchang is also my classmate studying in Xishan.

Liu Jie's mind seemed about to explode.

On to...Wen Sheng!

Wen Sheng!

Is that the little guy? Both gentlemen said that his stereotyped essays were not correct enough, and that he was too slanted.

On to...Deng Xingxing!

call……

These familiar names made Liu Jie's face pale all of a sudden.

He knows these people, he knows them all... Almost everyone has been together day and night.

Originally, they invited themselves to take the exam and watch the list together, but they did not agree. On the one hand, he was afraid that his identity as the son of the chief assistant would be exposed.

He continued to look, and then went up, it was Zheng Ying.

This person... I don't have any impression, but it is said that he is a talented person from Beizhili. Of course, a talented person from Beizhili is generally speaking, and is often ridiculed by scholars in the south.

And then...another acquaintance...

Liu Jie's eyes couldn't help but jump.

He gasped and looked all the way up.

Among the remaining names, except for two that he was not very familiar with, the rest were all Xishan's classmates.

He was completely stupefied, and when he finally...saw the most prominent position, on that position, it was written——Liu Jie...

Liu...Liu Jie...

Top of the list...

The first place in the Beizhili Township Examination.

This... is Xie Yuan...

How could this be possible? Although his article was completed in one go, he felt that it was not outstanding enough.

Or... it is because he has done too many questions and lost his appreciation for stereotyped essays. Just like what the gentlemen said, the so-called stereotyped writing is just handwork. There is no skill at all, only familiarity.

As if struck by lightning, he stared straight at the impressive "Liu Jie" on the group, completely speechless.

his body

, began to tremble slightly.
