Although in the final result, neither of them succeeded in the examination. However, Wang Xiucai, the scholar who decided to take a break, was actually in a good state of mind. He was not like another scholar who returned again and again.
Shut yourself up in your study and study hard.
On the contrary, Wang Xiucai felt that he was not in a hurry to study. After all, the Juren Examination had just passed, and the next exam would be two years away. This trip to the provincial capital was an eye-opener for him. After returning, of course,
Many relatives and friends have asked him what his experience was like when he went to the provincial capital.
After dealing with these curious friends, Wang Xiucai began to visit some old friends with good connections in the county. The salesman, an old acquaintance, was the first stop of his visit.
When the subordinates reported the situation of the Gong Jian brothers to this person, since this person and Wang Xiucai were old acquaintances, the person did not avoid it at that time and directly asked the subordinates to report. When he knew that he had just arrived at this inn to check in.
There were two brothers, and when one of them was named Gong Jian, Wang Xiucai beside him couldn't help but said in surprise: "How could it be him?"
This exclamation made the three people present stunned. But soon the man sent his men out, and after sitting down on the chair, he asked Wang Xiucai in a leisurely manner:
"What? Master Xiu Cai has heard of this young man named Gong Jian?"
At this time, Wang Xiucai also knew that he had lost his temper just now. But who told them to go to the provincial capital this time? The biggest stimulation they received came from this young man named Gong Jian.
In addition, why did the scholar study behind closed doors when he came back? It was also because he felt that he was older than others and was surpassed by the young people. He always felt that he had slacked off and lost his reputation, so he shut himself up as soon as he came back.
In the study room.
And whether Wang Xiucai was really not stimulated? Only he knew in his heart. Why he couldn't read during this period was probably just a feeling in his heart. He had always felt that he and another scholar were in the county seat.
Among them, he can be regarded as one of the best, and he can be regarded as a young talent.
Both of them are young, and I am even younger. The scholar will be thirty this year, and he is only twenty-five years old. They are young and promising.
In this county, anyone who meets the two of them should not call them a scholar. The attitude should be as respectful as possible. Therefore, these two people have always felt that they are very great over the years. They even feel that they are literary stars descended to earth.
I always feel that if I take part in the imperial examination, I will definitely advance step by step.
But this time they went to participate in the provincial capital examination, which made the two of them thoroughly understand their positions. It turned out that they had always been watching the sky from a well, not to mention how impressive the knowledge of the candidates from other places was.
It is said that many of those people are younger than them.
But the most surprising one among them is Gong Jian. When they first saw such a young scholar coming to take the exam, everyone looked at Gong Jian as if they were watching.
His joke.
Many people are making sarcastic remarks: Such a young junior is really not afraid of tigers. How come he doesn't know how to learn more knowledge at home and read more books before taking the national examination? That way he can be more confident.
He came here to take the exam at such a young age. He didn't expect that he would win the exam. He probably just wanted to experience the atmosphere of the exam.
Almost everyone thinks of Gong Jian like this. They, two talented people from the county, certainly think so too. But in the end, the result is shocking. This young talented person is less than twenty years old.
, but suddenly became the masters of the examination. But these white idiots, who are many years older than others and have studied for many years, all failed the examination.
This is really embarrassing, but after the red list was posted, the government soon had the students' test papers copied and posted them. After seeing Gong Jian's test paper, the others were still worried
Anyone who had any ideas really stopped after reading the exam papers. They do have real talents and practical knowledge.
That's why the scholar in the county was stimulated like this. As soon as he came back, he continued his studies. But Wang Xiucai was obviously stimulated in another direction.
He also understood now that it was not that the older he got, the more time he spent studying, he would be more certain of winning the prize. On the contrary, it did vary from person to person. So he was not in a hurry to immerse himself in the pile of books again, but wanted to take advantage of the opportunity.
Take this time to adjust and understand yourself more clearly and understand your shortcomings.
So after hearing the man's question, Wang Xiucai's face turned green and red, and he didn't know how to answer. After a while, he said: "I don't know if I know this Gong Jian you are talking about."
But if he is a young scholar under twenty years old, then I think it is very likely that the person you are talking about is the youngest Juren master I met in the provincial capital this time.
.”
This time, it was the man's turn to be surprised. He never thought that the person Wang Xiucai knew would have such an identity. After a moment of hesitation, he immediately recalled that he had heard other people report about Gong Jian's physical training before.
human condition.
At that time, those people did say that the two brothers seemed to be scholars. The elder brother was less than twenty years old, and it was rare for two such young scholars to come to their small county.
So even now, this person still has a certain impression in his mind.
Now that the age and appearance match, is this person really the youngest Juren master he has ever seen as Wang Xiucai said? But does such a young Juren master really exist? Thinking of this,
The man couldn't help but asked in confusion.
"Wang Xiucai, aren't you kidding me? When did we have such a young Juren master here? You are less than twenty years old, aren't you still awake?"
Hearing this person's rhetorical question, the Wang Xiucai showed some shame and a somewhat dumbfounded expression on his face, and then he said: "Oh, I didn't tell you about going to the provincial capital to take the examination.
.After you listen to what I said, you will know that this time I went to the provincial capital, it can be said that I saw real people, there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world."
