Chapter 301 Scoring, Dethroning
At the Spring Festival Spring Festival Ceremony, although Lu Yu was eliminated early because of losing to Xu Jin with his opponent, the blow to Lu Kuangsheng was obviously not a big deal. After all, he only lost to the opponent, or it was not considered a loss at all. It was just that the pair he made happened to be "lucky" by Xu Jin.
In addition, the imperial examination only examines classical articles, poems and policy theories, and there is no such thing as a pair, so even if you lose with a pair, it is no big deal. Moreover, Lu Yu asked himself that he performed very well in this exam, so he was still crazy in front of Xu Jin at this time.
Xu Jin said lightly: "Then I want to congratulate Brother Lu!"
Lu Qi was stunned. What was going on? The sun hit the west? He thought Xu Jin would fight back sharply like the last spring literary meeting!
Little did he know that Xu Jin was hungry now and was too lazy to argue with him. At this time, he had enough fifty people. The officer opened the dragon gate and let him go. Xu Jin simply handed over the license plate and walked out of the examination room, and ignored Lu Yan, who was stunned.
Lu Kuangsheng seemed to hit the cotton with a punch, feeling uncomfortable. Under the strange gaze of his life, he brushed his sleeves and walked out of the dragon gate in disappointment. The fists in his sleeves were pinched blue and said to himself: "I'm the last name of Xu, let you be crazy for a while. I'll see how I humiliate you after the results are released."
"master!"
"It's the master!"
"The master is coming out!"
Shortly after Xu Jin walked out of the gate of the Gongyuan, he heard several cheers. Then two "little cabbages" came up with a fragrant wind. Dabao carried a vegetable basket with his left and right hands, and followed the two girls with a bitter melon face.
What came towards us was the twin sisters early spring and early summer. The beautiful appearance of the two girls and the same face instantly attracted the attention of the surroundings.
"Tsk tsk, this pair of twin beauties should have been given to Xu Ziqian by Duke of Wei. It's really envious to others."
"Hehe, look at Xu Ziqian's current sloppy steps. I guess he was holding the left and right before the exam. His body was extremely deficient and his physical strength was severely hard to keep up!"
"Oh, the body of Erba Mei is as soft as she is, and she uses a sword to kill the foolish man. No one's head falls in front of her, and she secretly teaches you that your bones and blood are dry. I really sweat for Xu Ziqian!"
Listening to the sour and humming whispers around him, Xu Jin couldn't help but feel speechless and frowned: "Early spring and early summer, why are you here?"
Chuchun~ lowered his head guiltily, but Chuxia said seriously: "Master, my maid and sister went to the market to buy vegetables and prepare dinner. They just happened to pass by the Gongyuan and met Dabao~ Brother, Dabao~ Brother saw us carrying so many things, so he asked us to wait. When the master finished the exam, he would take us on a carriage to take us."
Dabao couldn't help but be speechless. Auntie, when will I agree to take you there? Moreover, the vegetable market is not far from our house. Is it necessary to go to the tribute court to buy vegetables?
Xu Jin was not stupid, so he couldn't tell how clever Chu Xia was, but he was too lazy to point it out. He was tired and hungry at this time, so he was serious when he went home quickly. In addition, if he didn't take a shower for nine days, Xu Jin felt that he was going to be bad. Fortunately, the weather was not hot now, so he couldn't bear it.
At that moment, Xu Jin got on the carriage with two watery little cabbage trees.
"Master, are you very tired? I'll pinch it for you!" Chu Xia smiled sweetly and rubbed Xu Jin's arms and legs. She deserves to be professionally trained, with skillful techniques and moderate strength, making Mr. Xu feel comfortable and moaning.
In early spring, he took out a large orange from the vegetable basket, peeled it open, and carefully cleaned the white veins inside, and then fed Xu Jin one by one.
While eating sweet and juicy oranges, Xu Jin enjoyed the service of his soft little hands in early summer, feeling that he was about to rot.
The house in Mingshifang is not too far from the Gongyuan. It arrives home in ten minutes. Xie Xiaowan saw her husband who was covered in two dark circles and had lost weight all over the place. She felt so distressed that her eyes turned red. She immediately prepared hot water to bathe her husband.
The beautiful maid Yue'er angrily sent the twin sisters to the kitchen to prepare dinner. It was outrageous. These two cunning little hoofs actually took advantage of the opportunity to buy vegetables to pick up the old master. It was really hard to guard against.
Under Xiaowan's service, Xu Jin took a beautiful bath and felt comfortable. He ate a sumptuous dinner again. After a little exercise, he ran back to the room to sleep.
...
The living room of Fei’s middle courtyard in Qianshan County, Jiangxi Province, is here today. Fei Hong, Fei Cai, and Fei Maoxian are all chatting with the guests in the living room.
Fei Maoxian's academic foundation is actually not inferior to his younger brother Fei Maozhong, but he is prone to accidents every time he takes the exam. He failed the exam because of an "accident" last time, which obviously made him poor in his psychological quality. So Fei Hong followed Xu Jin's advice. Now, as long as he meets, he tries to bring Fei Maoxian as much as possible to lay his back, and also exercises his reaction ability.
Today, the person who visited the Fei family was from the Wei family in Shangrao County. He was the old master of Wei, the previous generation of the Wei family. His name was Wei Yunming. He once served as the Minister of Justice of Nanjing, but now he is retired.
Since the two families of Fei and Wei families had the intention of marriage, the relationship between the two families has obviously been frequent, but the procedures have not been formally followed. Officials and clans like the Fei family and Wei family are very cautious when getting married. You should know that once they get married, both parties will be on the same boat, and a disturbance in the future will inevitably lead to a full blown movement. A large family like the Lou family in Shangrao was because a daughter married the rebellious King Ning, which eventually led to the family confiscation and extermination of the clan.
Therefore, the more prominent the marriage between families, the more cautious they should consider each other. For example, the political propositions of the main characters of the other family and the relationship with the big figures in the court must be carefully considered. At this time, the Fei family and the Wei family are in the process of considering each other.
Mr. Wei is about seventy years old, but he is in good spirits and is very talkative. As we chatted, we started the exam today.
Mr. Wei smiled and said, "Today is February 17th. At this time, the Beijing Central Examination should be over. With the talent of Linglang and Ling Gaotu, high school will probably be sure to win. If Xu Ziqian wins the first place in the exam again, it will be really amazing. Small three yuan will increase two yuan!"
Fei Hong smiled and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, it is not difficult to use Xu Jin's Chinese style, but if you want to win the first place in the exam, it still lacks the ignition, which gives Sun Weiyang great hope."
Mr. Wei smiled and said with a smile: "If that boy wins the Huiyuan, I will ask the matchmaker to come to my house when I turn around. What do you think of your and my nephew?"
"It's all right!" Fei Cai smiled slightly. He had no objection to marrying the Wei family, and was also very satisfied with Wei Yang, who was both good in character, talent and learning. He would not be humiliated even if his daughter married.
Fei Maoxian couldn't help but remembered Xu Jin's promise to the third sister. He would come to propose marriage in August. If the third sister and the fourth sister were going to farm at the same time, it would be lively. However, now the emperor is still stranded in Jinling, and the palace examination will definitely not be held as scheduled. I don't know if Ziqian can return to Jiangxi in August.
The emperor is more wild than a naughty boy. He is so happy to travel in Jiangnan. God knows when he will leave for the capital. If he may stay for another year, the marriage between Ziqian and his third sister will be delayed.
...
It was already nine o'clock in the evening in the capital, and the tribute courtyard was still brightly lit, and a group of internal and external curtain officials were organizing the test papers in a intensive manner.
Generally speaking, the examination admission list will be announced on the tenth day after the exam, which means that more than 3,000 test papers must be evaluated within nine days, and the workload is not ordinary.
At this time, the same examiner Liu Tianmin was arguing with another same examiner Shi Jie, which immediately attracted the attention of other examiners.
Deputy examiner Shi Yuxing came over and asked, "What's the matter with you?"
Shi Jie handed a paper in his hand to Shi Yan and said, "Bang Yan, this paper is just a slogan, sensationalism, empty content, really defamatory, and should be deposed, but Liu Hanlin disagreed."
Liu Tianmin frowned and said, "Mr. Shi has exaggerated the truth. This paper still has many advantages and will not be deposed!"
Shi Yu took the paper and read it, and couldn't help but feel moved. The first article of this paper was actually written well, but the policy arguments behind it were too radical, with a faint shadow of Xu Jin. Moreover, the five classics were answered in "Spring and Autumn Annals", and Xu Jin's sutra also happened to be "Spring and Autumn Annals", so this test paper is very likely to be Xu Jin's.
"Well, this paper is really too boring and seems to be sensational, so don't take it!" Shi Yu typed an "X" in the blank space at the beginning of the book.
At this time, Liang Chu also came over, took the paper from Shi Qing and read it again, and finally returned the paper to Shi Qing and walked away without saying a word, obviously agreeing with the dethronement of the paper.
