113 The God of War
In the ninth year of Zhengtong, the Jiazi Department of Northern Zhili Shuntian County Examination was admitted, which was the number set after Zhengtong's second year. In the subsequent Ming Dynasty, it basically followed this base and did not change.
The winning roll title is different from the red list. It does not start with the first place Jie Yuan, but starts with the seventh place and continues to the first hundred and thirty-five.
Then go back to Yakui, who ranked sixth, and announced one by one in reverse order until the final birth of Jie Yuan, the whole process was full of suspense and expectation.
Many talent shows in later generations announced their final lists, which are probably also inspired by the imperial examinations.
"After the call, I wonder how many people are happy or sad."
Looking at the highly anticipated look below, Zhou Xu felt emotion. He also came step by step from the boy trial, and he was very clear about the psychological state of the candidates at this moment.
Before we know the result, we were all kinds of excitement and expectation. Once the result was announced, there might be a scene of ecstasy and howling below.
"Since ancient times, there has been the pride of 'seeing all the flowers in Chang'an in one day' and the frustration of 'the flowers in Chang'an have passed for four years'. For scholars, this will be an experience in their lives, and Lord Zhou does not need to be moved."
After all, Wang Xian, the prefect of Shuntian, is an administrative officer. I have seen so many joys and sorrows in the world, and I have long since seen it as emotional as Zhou Xu.
On the day of today's announcement, the most important thing is to announce the list early. As for joy and sorrow, it is secondary. Which one is happy and sad? This is a good thing that everyone in the world is happy about?
"Mr. Wang said so much, so please trouble the clerk to sing the name."
Zhou Xu also understood that although many people cried later, today's main tone was still happy. Now many scholars are sweating profusely under the scorching sun, and the weak literati may not be able to hold on if they delayed for too long.
"good."
Wang Xian nodded, then gestured to the clerk beside him with his eyes.
Only the sound of the "dongdongdongdongdong" drum sounded again, and nearly ten thousand people in the square were silent, all of whom were pricking up their ears waiting for the scribes to be called.
"Seventh place in the Jiazi section of Shuntian Provincial Examination, Zhao Ruo, a student at Yongnian County, Guangping Prefecture."
The first person to take the name of the master of the imperial examination was sang from the clerk's mouth. The students present applauded thunderously and cheered loudly. At the same time, their eyes kept scanning the surroundings, wanting to see which lucky one was the master of the imperial examination.
"I won! I won! It's me, it's me!"
A student in the crowd who looked about thirty or forty years old, after experiencing the initial surprise and disbelief, finally came back to his senses and was the one who won the test.
Then he kept shouting happily and stressed at the nearby people that he had won the imperial examination, and the scene was a little crazy.
However, at this moment, no one laughed at the crazy behavior of this life member. Just like the later article "Fan Jin passed the imperial examination", who dared to laugh at a new juren except for envying and admiring the situation?
Even the Butcher Hu, who woke up his son-in-law, was secretly worried afterwards, and blew Fan Jin to the sky and called his son-in-law the master.
"Congratulations, congratulations."
"Brother Zhao is really a good literary talent, he is seventh in the high school provincial examination."
"Brother Zhao, don't forget to salute Lord Hanlin, this is a little master."
The last person's words reminded the new candidate named Zhao Ruo. Although the examiner in the provincial pilot is still not as good as a real candidate, as long as the juren is in the same court, he will eventually have some entanglement of interests. At this time, the title of the attendant will come in handy.
So he quickly calmed down and bowed to Zhou Xu and others in the singing house.
Zhou Xu and others didn't care about this behavior of the new recruit, so they lit up their foreheads and bowed their hands.
“It’s such a glorious scenery.”
When Xiao Yi, who was standing next to Shen Yichen, saw this scene, his face showed an envious expression and said in a low voice.
Chen Yichen felt very understanding of this expression. He only won 135 people in the exam with nearly 10,000 people, according to the ratio, and it was surprising that he was not envious of being taken.
After the hustle and bustle, the square quickly became quiet. The chanting clerk of Jinglou continued to shout: "The eighth place in the Shuntian Provincial Examination of Jiazi, and the student of Jizhou, Zhending Prefecture, Cen Hong."
"The ninth place in the Shuntian provincial examination in Jiazi, Ruan Ziyuan, a student of Neiqiu County, Shunde Prefecture."
One by one, they shouted out the names of the juren, and various congratulations and congratulations were constantly being staged.
However, as the rankings grew, many people, who were already a little excited, gradually became nervous and anxious.
Because the fewer remaining places are, the smaller the chance of winning. If you don’t sing your name, you will probably have to wait for the next big year.
"The 134th place in the Shuntian Provincial Examination in Jiazi, Liang Zhe, a student in Zhili Prefecture, Yanqing."
"The 135th place in the Shuntian Provincial Examination in Jiazi, Wei Haoshi, a student of Wanping County, Shuntian Prefecture!"
When the last one who won was shouted out, there was no excitement in the crowd, "I'm beaten," sounded.
On the contrary, some people shouted in a hurry: "Call the doctor over, Wei Juzi fainted!"
"It's amazing, Wei Juzi's face is white and he is already unconscious!"
The mentally and nervous waiting for several hours has consumed the physical strength of many students present, and the air is not circulating very much under the high temperature.
This new student named Wei Haoshi originally thought he had no hope of winning, but he didn't expect to catch the last train and fainted in surprise and joy, which led to this kind of scene.
"Get out of the way quickly and carry Wei Juzi out!"
After all, Wang Xian, the prefect of Shuntian, had seen the world, so he immediately asked the yamen runners to open up a path and carry Wei Haoshi who had fainted out of the crowd.
At the same time, he quickly sprinkled water on his face to cool down, and poured a bowl of prepared medicine into his mouth. After some operation, Wei Haoshi woke up in a daze.
Just the first sentence when he woke up, Wei Haoshi didn't care about fainting, but shouted at the top of his throat: "I've won, I've won, I'm a juren!"
This scene caused everyone to sigh again...
"Blessed by the First Saint, fortunately it's not a big deal."
Xiao Yi breathed a sigh of relief and said to himself again.
"Brother Xiao, it seems that you are very emotional. Are you worried that you didn't win?"
Chen Yichen watched by the side for a long time and found that Xiao Yi was happy to be beaten by others, and he was nervous when something happened to others.
But when he was singing the name, he never silently prayed for his success like other students, and he was really a bit of a special order.
"I am worried, but I have a destiny to pass the imperial examination, and worrying is useless."
"Brother Xiao is free and easy."
"Brother Chen laughed at me, but I was poor since childhood, so I can feel more about the past year."
Chen Yichen had actually noticed it a long time ago. Xiao Yi rushed over and had a lot of mud on his trousers. It seemed that he had not come by foot in a carriage.
In addition, his blue shirt was a little white after washing, and he could still see traces of repair, so his family was naturally not much better.
He is from a poor family, but he is not dissatisfied or jealous. He always maintains an empathy. He has a good character and can handle it.
After the last-place ring title is over, the climax of today's national audition ring title will be announced. Yakui, Jingkui, Yayuan, and the most important Jieyuan. All the students are looking forward to it again, hoping to hear their names from the clerk's mouth.
"The sixth place in the Shuntian Provincial Examination in Jiazi, and Gongsun Han, a student at Changping Prefecture, Shuntian Prefecture."
"The fifth place in the Shuntian Provincial Examination in Jiazi, Ma Zheng, a student in Yongqing County, Shuntian Prefecture!"
"The fourth place in the Shuntian Provincial Examination in Jiazi Department..."
As the countdown grew higher and higher, the expressions on many students' faces also changed from expectation to despair.
Most people still have a sense of their ability. It is almost impossible to enter the ranking of the Five Classics, let alone the Yayuan and Jieyuan.
"The third place in the Shuntian Provincial Examination of Jiazi, Jingkui, Xiao Yi, a student of Fucheng County, Hejian Prefecture!"
After pronounced this name, there was no high school shouting in the square in front of the Mansion. With Wei Haoshi's past lessons, everyone speculated in their hearts that they could have fainted in ecstasy, right?
"Brother Xiao, congratulations."
Chen Yichen stood up at this time and bowed to Xiao Yi to congratulate him. He was really not good at appearance. He never expected that this simple student would be the third most important scholar in the Shuntian Provincial Examination.
This congratulation also woke up Xiao Yi, who was still shocked. He had no hope at all, but he ended up in high school!
"Brother Xie Chen congratulates you!"
After reacting, Xiao Yi was quite determined, and he still maintained his literary style and returned the gift to Chen Yichen with a gentle and elegant look.
"Brother Xiao, don't thank me now, thank Lord Hanlin first."
Hearing this reminder, Xiao Yi suddenly realized, raised his hand and bowed from afar and shouted loudly: "Student Xiao Yi, Lord Xie Hanlin, red clothes and squeezing!"
It was not until the salute came that the students in the square discovered that the third place Jingkui was sitting far away in the tea shed.
"Great concentration!"
“Have a classic style.”
"This child is not afraid of being favored and disgraced."
Many people present couldn't help but praise it. This kind of performance belongs to everyone.
"The second place in the Shuntian Provincial Examination in Jiazi, Yakui, a student of Tongzhou, Shuntian Prefecture, He Pingyan!"
When this name appeared, a fierce cheer burst out from the square, with applause like thunder.
He Pingyan is an outstanding student in the Imperial College, and has great talent and enjoys a high reputation in the Shuntian literary world. Many people are convinced that he can be a high school student, so he is so enthusiastic.
But after the cheers, some people were questioning, even young talents like He Pingyan are so talented, so who can defeat him and win the leader Jie Yuan?
"I thought Brother He would be the first to get high school, but I didn't expect there would be a stronger person."
"Who in the northern Zhili area has this kind of knowledge that has surpassed He Pingyan?"
"Is it from the Imperial College or Shuntian Academy? This person is really not simple."
Amid the sound of discussion, the big drum singing upstairs sounded, which was a reminder to everyone to be quiet and also a tribute to Jie Yuan!
Only Jie Yuan deserves to enjoy such a time that is highly anticipated.
"The first place in the Shuntian provincial examination in the Jiazi year, Xie Yuan was the student of Jiangning County, Yingtian Prefecture!"
When this name appeared, the scene was in an uproar, and many people showed shocked expressions on their faces.
Chapter completed!
