The two people walked through the crowd and shook people off. Because of the masks, they became much cleaner.
"terrible!"
Jiang Yuan trembled all over when he thought of the screaming women chasing him.
What's even crazier is that there are men chasing after...
"Are you still playing?" Fu Jiu smiled. Thinking of her calmly throwing the sachet back to others, he felt inexplicably good.
"Play? Don't play anymore."
Jiang Yuan shook her head. She just wanted to make money and didn't want to be in the limelight.
It was unexpected that it would turn out like this.
"If you want to play, let's just change the name. There seems to be another one in front of me. I just heard someone say that Shen Hanlin's ring has a winnings of five thousand taels."
Jiang Yuan's heart was moved.
"Then do the last vote?"
Fu Jiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and nodded: "Those who don't know better think we are really going to steal money."
"Isn't this just like robbing money?"
Jiang Yuan took him to see it.
"Everyone, my master would like to take advantage of this Shangsi Festival to make friends with the students who took the government examination and discuss their articles together. If the article is well done, the first place will get five thousand taels, and the second place will get five thousand taels. Eight hundred taels, the third place is 500 taels, and I can still get some advice from my master."
Everyone was in an uproar. The money was nothing, but the advice from the old Hanlin made people crazy.
This Shen Hanlin was originally a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. I heard that he was a classmate and good friend of the previous Taifu Jiang. Although this Shen Hanlin is not as famous as Mrs. Jiang, his knowledge is also first-class.
Now that he has resigned from office and is free at home, he lives in Qingzhou Prefecture.
The government examination is coming soon. If I can get his guidance, it will be of great benefit to the government examination!
"I heard that Shen Hanlin also has a young lady who is a talented woman. I think this old Shen wants to choose a husband for his granddaughter, right?"
"Hey, you're telling me this. Mr. Shen has a good plan. I think most of the students here can take the case. Look, Xie He, Cheng Ying, and Zhang Huaqing are all here. !Isn’t this a disguised form of early examination? Aren’t the top three today the same as the top three in the government examination? He is directly choosing his son-in-law among the top three.”
Shen Hanlin is from Qingzhou Prefecture, so he naturally wants to choose someone whose ancestral home is Qingzhou Prefecture for his granddaughter.
It would be nice to have someone to take care of you later.
Having said this, the scholar who was originally a little excited is now even more eager to give it a try.
Being the grandson-in-law of Hanlin Mansion is also a good choice.
There are many people who have signed up, and almost half of the people gathered here are scholars who took the government examination this year.
Who can not participate?
Just counting, there are hundreds of people.
Shen Lao Hanlin seemed to have anticipated this situation a long time ago, and first came up with a poem to write, which needed to be completed within the time of a cup of tea.
This requirement is extremely high, and the time it takes to have a cup of tea is so short that it can be compared to writing a poem in seven steps.
Who can have that ability?
Complaints rose and fell for a while.
The Shen family members had already prepared pens and paper for everyone who signed up.
There are a lot of servants in the Shen family. As soon as the time comes, they will put away the poems and articles immediately, hardly giving others time to cheat.
Jiang Yuan stood outside, and there were also many girls surrounding him.
Most of the people standing inside were registered scholars.
For a moment, the scene was very quiet.
People outside looked at the people inside with wide eyes.
Many people shook their heads and sighed, scratching their heads and ears.
When the time came, there was a sigh.
After this round, when Mr. Shen read the poems inside, he only decided on ten places.
