Three days before the examination, Shi Zhongkui stood beside the desk in the study and practiced writing while listening to Xue Pan and Jia Lian report on the restaurant.

Although the restaurant is used to plot against Jia She and Jia Zhen, Shi Zhongkui also understands that if he can't make money, no one will be foolish and jump into the pit.

So these days, the people running outside in name are Jia Lian and Xue Pan, but Shi Zhongkui himself has also spent a lot of effort.

Now that all preparations are done, I’m waiting for Shi Zhongkui to name the restaurant.

Jia Lian took the rice paper of the 'Huixianlou' written by Shi Zhongkui and went to make a plaque in an expedition to avoid having to treat guests at another restaurant in high school.

But Jia Lian finally took care of the more safe intentions and booked the Jude Building and Guangyuan Building, which were only a few dozen meters away from Huixian Building for three days.

No matter how many guests there are, you should be able to sit down.

Three days later, Xue Pan and Jia Lian came to Shi Zhongkui's house again.

The three of them sat in the main hall for tea. When chatting, Xue Pan seemed to have nails on the chair, twisting left and right so hard that he couldn't sit still.

After a stick of incense, he couldn't help but stand up and muttered, "Why haven't the person who reported the news come yet?"

Jia Lian stood up and looked at Shi Zhongkui with concern, but saw Shi Zhongkui smiling and said, "It's yours, it's yours, it's useless to be anxious."

Except for not expecting that someone would use him to cheer for the old concubine Zhen.

After so many calculations, if I still can’t get Huiyuan, I will accept it myself.

However, Shi Zhongkui often recalls his answer these days, and feels that even if he can't get first in his article, there is no reason to lose the election.

This minimum deadline is guaranteed, and I feel less uncomfortable.

Comparing Yu Tongfu who came to his house a few days ago, he sent him the article he wrote down. Shi Zhongkui felt that he was at least one level better than his articles.

After reading the article he wrote down, Yu Tongfu sighed, "My father will definitely be happy after seeing this article by his brother."

Then he pointed to the wooden box on the coffee table next to him and said, "My brother, there is nothing good for me. This set of 'Shangyuan Picture' collection of inks composed of 32 pieces of Hui ink is regarded as a thank you gift to me."

Shi Zhongkui didn't mean anything polite this time, so he reached out to pick up the wooden box and opened it, and his expression immediately became surprised and surprised.

There is a saying of one or two ink and one or two gold in the top grade Hui ink.

If the ink boards processed into various forms and the collection of ink carved with various patterns is really not a good thing that money can buy.

This thing has risen to the ranks of collectibles and even lonely products.

Yu Tongfu's meeting thanked him with great gifts, but Shi Zhongkui tried to resolve his nervousness before the exam, and also mentioned him the day before the exam.

Since I studied with Yu Tongfu before the exam, I was also a fellow disciple.

In the future, when they enter the officialdom together, the two will be a natural alliance, and they will be an alliance with a very strong relationship.

So without affecting himself, Shi Zhongkui will of course think of using more than twenty other questions to cover up the questions he knows he may have.

Tell Yu Tongfu this is the question he guessed.

If it were a month and a half ago, Yu Tongfu would definitely not care.

But after more than a month of time and night, he really admired and even admired Shi Zhongkui's knowledge.

At the same time, Shi Zhongkui had already understood what he was doing.

Although Shi Zhongkui was not enough to do the questions carefully when he was giving the questions, there was still time to think about them in his mind.

Moreover, he is also knowledgeable. With preparation, his psychological advantages directly offset Yu Tongfu's nervousness when he was in the exam room.

I was not anxious or nervous, so I could show my true level. So while Yu Tongfu was confident after the exam, he felt that if he really couldn't pass the exam, he would have no regrets.

Then I came to my door to thank me personally.

Yu Honggao and Yu Shishi knew that Shi Zhongkui had guessed the test question, so they told Yu Tongfu again, and of course they wanted to thank him.

But if you think about it carefully, Baochai's book and the decision to welcome the spring are all about them and Duke Shan's mansion, so there is no need to deliberately go to Xie Shi Zhongkui.

Shi Zhongkui didn't dare to accept the thank-you gifts from his teacher and his wife, and it was just right for Yu Tongfu to come to thank him.

-----

At around 9 a.m., there were already crowds outside the Gongyuan, but countless people looked a little weird when they watched the main and deputy examiners walk out of the Gongyuan together.

In theory, the examiner should be happy when posting the list in the imperial examination.

After all, according to the rules of the imperial examination, scholars who pass the exam will have to treat him as their teacher in the future.

In other words, there are two hundred new Jinshi students who are potentially helpful, which is a great help for the chief examiner to enter the cabinet.

But the examiner was sweating in the cold wind in February.

It can be said that the chief examiner and some deputy examiners with strange thoughts had a wonderful expression when they saw the seals on the copy papers being opened one by one.

After all the calculations, these people never thought that Shi Zhongkui had changed his writing style and wrote poems, at most they could only be considered as decent.

As for the paper that insisted on Qingshan, they placed it in the second place with reason.

It's the second-to-last place.

After this incident came out, Fan Dao hated Shi Zhongkui and hated him.

Unfortunately, the chief examiner had no intention of caring about him. All the calculations were empty and he had the desire to die.

There were five deputy examiners who were admiring Shi Zhongkui, who were also surprised, but when they saw the results, they immediately laughed.

Everyone is not stupid, knowing that more than a dozen examiners have been deceived by one juren.

As for the Juren who was called a juren who violated the Tao, why he suddenly made a poem that was enough to be remembered by future generations, everyone could only smile knowingly.

Anyway, as long as Shi Zhongkui and Fan Dao don’t know each other, they have never seen this.

It’s not a relative, a brother-in-law, so there’s no reason to cause trouble.

Write down the list of the exams you have won, send one to the palace immediately, and the other to the Dragon Shou Palace.

Then I began to copy the first, second and third list on the yellow list.

But today's events will inevitably be spread to the court. More than a dozen deputy examiners' eyes were already showing some scent of looking at the examiner.

The examiner also knew in his heart that he had offended both forces, and being able to resign and return home was the best ending.

------

A sound of gongs and drums came from afar, and Xue Pan, Jia Lian and many servants looked happy.

I hurriedly ran to the gate, and soon I saw at least 230 officers wearing yamen runners and wearing red paper hairpins on their hats from afar and blowing drums to announce the good news.

Moreover, the sound of gongs and drums attracted all households along the street.

Everyone knows that Shi Zhongkui won four yuan in a row. If he wins Huiyuan again, people on the street will be ashamed.

I was also thinking in my heart that my own children might be able to get involved in Shi Zhongkui's literary spirit.

More importantly, if Shi Zhongkui has a good relationship and has been living on this street, he might be able to ask him to give advice to his children in the future.

This was a four-yuan win in a row. This time, at least he passed the final exam. Maybe he would be the top five-yuan leader in the final exam.

Just giving some advice on how to write articles based on the examiner's preferences is the secret to not changing a wealth of money.

So whenever a family with a boy at home, everyone will order people to take out the prepared wedding candies, pastries, snacks and copper coins.

It is placed outside the main entrance of the house and distributed to the officers who come to announce the good news and pedestrians watching the fun.

The officers and passers-by didn't expect that there was an unexpected surprise, and the good words in their mouths kept shouting out like they didn't have money.

After the owner confirmed that Shi Zhongkui had won Huiyuan, he immediately laughed and said that this was a blessing for Huiyuan's justice.

Some people quickly understood that this must be a different idea.

After thinking about it, I couldn't say that I could tell you that Shi Zhongkui could give some advice to the juniors of each family for the sake of the neighbors.

For a moment, everyone was envious of the residents of this street.

In the future, when a small official resigns and returns home, the small house he enters will be sold for 2,400 taels.

It is 40% more expensive than the market price.

All of this was because Shi Zhongkui fulfilled his promise and asked Shi Huaiji, the son of Shi Guangzhu, of Duke Shanguo, to come to study, but he could not refuse Jia Zheng. Jia Lian's pleading made Jia Lan come to study.

After taking two people, I thought that it would not take much more time for one or two more, so I would give advice from time to time and guide two children of the same age on this street.

Of course, Shi Zhongkui would definitely not let these children live in his own home, but even if he only assigned homework, the action of coming to the door for advice every 5 days was enough to make countless people envious.

Once Shi Huaiji, Jia Lan and the other two children become scholars, the residents of this street will try their best to protect him.

So at this time, when he heard Shi Zhongkui win the Huiyuan again, all the residents of the entire street ran out and headed towards the Shi family together.

-----

If there were many people coming to report the good news during the provincial examination, then the people who came to report the good news and watch the fun this time were even covered with people.

Fortunately, Xue Pan and Jia Lian were prepared for a long time. When Shi Zhongkui came out to salute everyone and thanked everyone, he shouted that the Shi family had been placing a three-day flowing seat in Jude Building, Guangyuan Building and Huixian Building.

Each restaurant starts at noon every day and makes two hundred tables of 2 taels of silver for a table.

If you go late, you won’t be able to eat. The money-spreading process used to thank you will also be held in Huixian Building.

When I heard that 2 taels of silver were a table, many people thought it was definitely all meat and vegetables.

And when they thought about the rumors that the Shi family sprinkled silver melon seeds during the provincial examination, many people immediately shouted auspicious words at Shi Zhongkui.
