"Old Zhou, do you think he will be a prince or a princess?"
Manager Zhou was sweating coldly.
Where does he dare to say a word?
...
Another three days.
The civil, military, and craftsmanship examinations in Yanqi City began at the same time.
All three places are very lively.
Cui Gong got up early in the morning and took a shower and changed clothes. He was full of energy. He felt that his chance to be reborn had come. He would once again step onto the stage of history and let the Cui family shine again!
"Congratulations, sir!"
"Congratulations, Mr. Cui!"
"Mr. Cui will definitely win the first prize today!"
Listening to other people's compliments, Cui Gong struggled to keep a humble look on his face and waved his hands: "Same joy."
Master Cui's formation was not built for nothing. There was a group of people behind him, who wanted to beat gongs and drums. Cui Gong took a look and sighed slightly, feeling that the only flaw was that there was still no carriage to pick him up. He couldn't help but snorted.
, this governor of the Western Regions is really a bad person!
That’s all.
That's it for now.
When I return to officialdom, it will be the time when I will become a dragon and a phoenix!
The Western Region is just a springboard. Will the head of the Cui family care about those bullshit points? Sooner or later, he will return to the Longyan Dynasty.
So, along the way, when I saw those poor students who were extremely excited, I smiled coldly.
at the same time.
Ling Chen has already prepared it.
That's right.
He was the poor student in Cui Gong's eyes. Let alone a scholar, he didn't even have a basket for endorsement. His clothes were all patched, and even when he was walking on the road, he felt uneasy in his heart. Whose family did he use for this imperial examination?
A pen? I have nothing but pen, ink, paper and inkstone, but I don’t have anything I want.
"Go away, why are you squeezing! Oh, it's Ling Chen? Hahahaha, are you coming to join too?"
Cui Gong's subordinates all laughed loudly when they saw Ling Chen.
Cui Gong also glanced at him and said, "Young man, your literary talent is good, but your work is too sharp. Your personality is not suitable for an official career."
"In this case, if I win the election and I need a pen-polishing boy, how about you come?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience burst into laughter.
Back then, Ling Chen had his articles stolen by a literary giant and was imprisoned for it. However, people from these noble families took this for granted. How can you, a disciple from a poor family, publish a policy? Can you, a pariah, write the kind of article that governs the world?
You are only qualified to polish the pens of these masters!
"Why are you making any noise! Just be quiet!"
Ling Chen was about to speak. At this time, the deacon in charge of the civil examination gave Cui Gong a cold look: "Go to the back and line up. If you dare to make any noise again, you will be disqualified!"
"you......"
Cui Gong was so angry that he was half dead.
Ling Chen laughed out loud, bowed his hands to the deacon, and then followed the team and entered one by one.
Cui Gong's eyes were vicious: "Huh, let's see if you can laugh in a while!"
Imperial examination for 150,000 people.
This cannot be done in one day. On the first day, each of the three examination rooms can only handle the examination of 5,000 people, which is already the limit. Even so, this is located in an open-air racecourse in Yanqi, with tables and benches.
The conditions are still a bit crude...
As soon as the five thousand people were seated, the test papers were handed out.
Liu Zheng and Qingyang Shuo were standing on a high place, looking at the world. During the first imperial examination, he remembered the time when he took the college entrance examination... That exam that changed his destiny, wasn't it like this?
Of?
He remembered that when he took the college entrance examination, he couldn't sleep the night before and the whole night.
Even so, the next day was extremely exciting.
It's just that these people now, the first batch of people to eat crabs, they probably don't understand what this exam means to them.
"Sir, that person is Ling Chen."
Qingyang Shuo pointed at one of the five thousand people.
Liu Zheng chuckled: "A person who can be appreciated by Sir must be good. Let's see how he will go about this Western Region policy."
Qingyang Shuo smiled and said: "It's not Shuo who appreciates him, but Shuo who thinks that his extreme and sharp tempers are worthy of being a prince."
"ah?"
Liu Zheng was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
