"Dad, I'm back."

After returning from the county town, Ye Chunqiu was in a good mood. After all, the county town was not his own home. It was really annoying to watch Ye Chenliang wandering in front of him every day. Ye Juncai, who has always looked reproachful since he failed the exam, made Ye Chunqiu feel heartbroken.

Ye Jing had already come out of the wing room. When he saw Ye Chunqiu, who was carrying a bow, he had an unconcealed look on his face, but he still pretended to be stern: "How did the exam?"

"not bad."

Ye Jing looked like I understood and sighed. No one knows his son is better than his father. His son said it was right, but it was not humble. The suspicion of bragging was even greater. So his eyes narrowed, revealing the mysterious and profound that only his son understood. He touched Ye Chunqiu's head: "Next time, keep working hard, the road is long and arduous, so you should search up and down."

There is no way to communicate...

Ye Chunqiu shook his head in his heart, am I really that weak?

……………………

At this time, it was another scene in the county town.

Speaking of county examinations, it is actually just the primary examination for the imperial examinations, so the marking of the papers is not very formal, and there is even no need to miss the name of the child examination.

Even so, the county magistrate Wang of this county did not dare to slacken in this regard. At this time, in the office of the Houya, the county magistrate Wang sat behind the desk and made the final decision on the articles selected by the teachers and clerks.

County magistrates are often from Jinshi, and their eight-part essays are of course extremely clever, which makes him unable to deal with these test papers. The articles in the children's test are often of different quality, and some of them are outrageous. From so many articles, there are only a few that are acceptable. One of them is Ye Chenliang's problem, "Don't study hard but only seeking excellence" is refreshing. However, in the eyes of County magistrate Wang, who was from Jinshi, can only be considered to be of a middle or higher level. It is not easy to be able to handle the college examination, so it is not easy to go up.

Although Ningbo Prefecture is located in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, its people are fond of business and have a strong charity. The literary style is not as strong as the emperor, so the county magistrate is now a short general.

"It seems that this is probably the only one this year." County Magistrate Wang thought to himself. The last few articles fell on the desk. He picked up one of them casually and read the running script of this article alone, but then, County Magistrate Wang was attracted, and then his eyes lit up. He held the test paper with love, his lips moved slightly, and he unconsciously recited the article softly.

After a long time, all the articles have been roughly reviewed. There are 309 candidates participating in the children's examination this year, and more than 50 children were selected. After the clerk finally decided on the final decision of the county magistrate Wang, he took all the test papers to seal them. After a while, the clerk went back to report the case. The county magistrate Wang just nodded: "The next day, the list will be issued, and the third day of the third month, the top ones will be given a seat to the hall."

These are all old rules, and the clerk nodded and said yes.

As soon as the clerk left the hall, he saw a servant waiting secretly under the corridor.

The officer smiled flatteringly and said, "What's wrong with Liu Shuli?"

The clerk angrily scolded him, "You are such a dog, why are you doing so urgently?"

The officer smiled bitterly and said, "Where can you grab this joy if you don't have a hurry?"

It turns out that there is an unwritten rule in the county. Usually, when the results are released, people will go to each company to report the good news. The people who pass the exam often give generous amounts of joy. However, Ningbo Prefecture is very merciful, so the people who report the good news are like crucian carp crossing the river. If everyone comes to report the good news, where can they get so much money? Of course, whoever arrives first will get the reward. Those who arrive first will often receive a heavy reward, and those who come later will give it a penny or two.

The county's servants thought of a solution. If they wanted to get the first place, they would inevitably give the good news before the results were released.

The clerk did not talk to the officers anymore, but stroked his beards and said slowly: "The Zhao family in Qingtang was one person; the Ye family in Hexi was four people. What's strange is that the head of the case also came from their family..." The clerk only said a few people, but did not tell the names of the high school people. This did not delay the good news, but also prevented the county magistrate from prosecuting them.

When he heard that there were four people in Ye and the head of the case was released, the officer's eyes lit up: "What's wrong with the Ye family this year? They have such great luck."

Ye Chunqiu no longer focused on the county examination at this time. As usual, he still got up early to practice calligraphy. This practice of calligraphy is not easy and requires a lot of physical strength and perseverance. So he searched for the best morning exercise in Guangming. After practicing in the yard every day, he sweated and took a shower, and then he lifted his pen with peace of mind.

Early this morning was different from the past, but I saw several servants hanging lanterns everywhere. Ye Chunqiu felt strange, even Ye San was called to help. Seeing Ye San climbing up the tree to carve the osmanthus tree, Ye Chunqiu stood under the tree and said curiously: "Ye San, what are you doing?"

Ye San tied the red silk to the tree, and said, "Young Master, today the old lady is going to have a big banquet for guests, oh... it's called a thank-you banquet. Don't you know? Early in the morning, people from the yamen came to report the good news, saying that four people in our Ye family passed the test. Even the capital of the county came from our Ye family. Many people came to celebrate after hearing the news. The old lady was very happy. He said that the eldest son Chenliang was good, and said that other children were good, so he had to hold a banquet to entertain relatives and friends, and thank Master Zhou. Our Ye family has not been so lively for a long time. Thinking about the time when the eldest son was a scholar, he arranged it with great fanfare. Tsk tsk, even our servants had pork heads to eat." Ye San was saliva, missing the days when he ate pork heads.

It’s not that the results have not been released yet, why did the results come out?

Ye Chunqiu was suspicious and couldn't help but say, "It's Ye Chenliang, the head of the case? Where are the others?"

"I don't know this. I only know that after four of them, the head of the case must be Mr. Ye. After the eldest master came back, he copied the articles from his county examination for the old lady and Mr. Zhou. Both the old lady and Mr. Zhou said that it was a good article and must be among the top. Now he said that the head of the case is in our Ye family. Isn't it the eldest master? The old lady was so happy that she immediately gave the second lady a set of red gold jewelry inlaid with gems, saying that the second lady was good at teaching her children. The eldest master is so proud now, and the second master is very happy. Now he is asking people to send invitations everywhere. Master, when will you take the exam for a child? If you pass the exam, I will benefit from it."

Ye Chunqiu suddenly felt a string of anger rising from his stomach. This guy was stinging inside and out, nakedly increasing his anger and destroying his majesty.

Ye Chunqiu said angrily: "Didn't I take the exam?"

Ye Sanben wanted to say that although the young master went to the exam, he would not pass the exam. When he said something, he swallowed it into his stomach. He didn't dare to say it, and if he angered the young master, the young master would be angry.

The Ye family was indeed busy with the teacher’s banquet. Ye Chunqiu soon heard a lot of news and sent invitations to people from all over the countryside and eight miles. The old lady planned to have a big fuss.

During lunch, Ye Jing looked depressed and looked a little dazed. Ye Chunqiu was eating simple food and muttering in his heart: "There is a banquet to eat at night, and only wild vegetables will be eaten at noon. This is the rhythm of everyone going to eat the big pot rice when they are hungry." He was thinking in his heart, is there any portion of me in this test? That article should be a must-win.

But the result was unpredictable. Just as he was thinking, Ye Jing suddenly sighed, and Ye Chunqiu looked up and said, "Dad, what's wrong?"

Ye Jing shook his head quickly and said whining: "Oh, nothing, nothing."

He paused for a moment, sighed suddenly and said, "You are still young in spring and autumn, and you still need to be tempered. There are talents in the generation of the country and will definitely win in a few years."

Well……

Ye Chunqiu looked at Ye Jing, not knowing what to say.
