Chapter 168 167 The Year of the Year ≠ The Year of the Year

Today, Wei Guangde is very satisfied. He has made it to the first list. After passing the palace examination, he can proudly tell others that he is a "two-list Jinshi".

Not only Wei Guangde, but also the shopkeeper of Jiujiang Association and the Jiujiang businessman who came here to do business in Beijing were also very happy. Finally, he did not come to sit for half a day in vain.

However, there are also many people who are very unhappy.

They are naturally more than 20 other candidates who took the exam.

However, at this time, they could only force themselves to smile.

Well, it’s still early now, there are 300 tribute quotas, and now there are only about 100 people reporting, maybe I still have them.

While all the candidates were still looking forward to it, Wei Guangde, Zhang Ke and Xia Kefan were already sitting together, discussing going to Beijing Gongyuan to see the list together tomorrow morning and see who they were in the same year.

For the tribute students from Jiangxi, they are quite familiar with them. The combination of the three of them is very interesting. They cover the 28th year of Jiajing, the 31st year and the 34th year of the provincial examination, and are almost on the list this time.

They should have the chance to meet all the tribute students from Jiangxi.

Of course, their goal is not only to know the tribute students in this province, but also to meet the talented and talented people from other provinces. In the future, as they were in the same year, they would also support and take care of each other in the officialdom so that they could go further.

The so-called "one hero and three gangs" are even more so in the officialdom.

Everyone formed small interest groups in the same year, fellow townsmen and other ways, hoping for better development.

For those in Jiujiang Guild Hall, the next time is even more painful.

As time passed quietly, everyone knew that their chances of being on the list were disappearing.

The higher you go, the higher your ranking will be. Do you have this level?

Now, except for Lao Kan and Shen Liangdong, they all have experienced the failure of the exam. Naturally, the arrogance that had emerged after the provincial examination was eliminated has long disappeared, and the seeds of doubt have been planted in their hearts.

At this moment, the seed germinated.

In fact, for many talented people, this is the so-called "intellectual demon". If you can't see through this point, the imperial examination will be almost over in the future.

There are only a very small number of people, perhaps from time to time, and by chance, they can overcome this most difficult level.

I don’t know how many teams have passed to report the good news. Calculate the time, I’m afraid that I have registered less than 100 people.

The disappointment gradually spread in the hearts of the students.

Along the way, another team of festive music sounded, and then gradually disappeared.

In fact, at this moment, Wei Guangde was a little confused about the situation.

For example, Laikan has a talent far surpassing himself, but what is the result?

He was on the first list, but Lao Kan seemed to have failed the exam. Although he still had a chance now, Wei Guangde also felt that the opportunity was slim.

Xia Kefan's talent is not as talented as laborers, but he has only reached more than 200. Can Laborer still reach less than 100?

That is likely to become a second-class existence.

In the distance, there were gongs, drums and suona sounds, and the sound gradually became louder and louder.

Everyone turned their expectant eyes to the gate, hoping that this team of people who reported the good news could cross the threshold and enter here.

However, when the drums and music sounded in everyone's ears and when the newspaper really stepped into the Jiujiang Guild Hall, everyone was still excited.

Wei Guangde looked at the pickets with their eyes that were like fire, and was also guessing who would be on the list this time.

They didn't wait too long, perhaps because they saw the eagerness of their students, the newspaper quickly opened the good news in their hands, and read it loudly with excitement: "The best news for the Bingchen Test in the 35th year of Jiajing, congratulations

Mr. Lao Kanlao, Dehua County, Jiangxi Province, was ranked 80th in the first place, and the Beijing News ranked 20th in the yellow league."

Lao Kan is on the list.

Eighty, there is really a chance to be ranked second.

At this moment, the two businessmen who had already stood up excitedly cheered loudly, and at the same time, they rushed towards Lao Kan's table slowly.

Originally, Wei Guangde was still at the same table with Lao Kan and others, but after knowing that Zhang Ke and Xia Kefan were on the list, the three of them sat next to a small table chatting, thinking about the list tomorrow, and they were all guessing that the subject would be able to do so.

Which province does Yuanhui have to fall?

Here, Wei Guangde naturally has no say, and it is all Xia Kefan and Zhang Ke who are discussing it.

Now, Wei Guangde and the three tributes were still outside, and Lao Kan was already crowded with merchants. The juren could only stand outside and kept bowing to Lao Kan inside, shouting loudly, "

Congratulations".

Wei Guangde looked at the merchants while watching them, and they squeezed out a brighter smile on their faces to compliment Lao Kan.

Of course, the ranking of the imperial examination is not as good as the ranking of the palace examination, but the gap between the two will not be too big.

Basically, Lao Kan has been confirmed to be admitted to the second grade.

When everyone in the Jiujiang Guild Hall was excited to enter the 100 people in the top test, they were in the north of them, in the inner city of Beijing and Yongshou Palace.

"Your Majesty, Wei Guangde is on the exam list, but he ranks very low."

In the hall, an old eunuch was respectfully reporting to Emperor Jiajing on the imperial throne.

At this time, Emperor Jiajing was just lying lazily on the chair, with a Taoist bun on his head, a golden hairpin forked across his face, and a blue-gray Taoist robe, looking very leisurely.

"Chen Hong, do you repay that the kid cut down a Japanese pirate on the battlefield?"

Emperor Jiajing waved his sleeves and found a more comfortable position to continue asking.

"This is what the war report says. I have found someone to check it out, and it seems that this is indeed true."

The old eunuch was Chen Hong, the eunuch who had gone to Nanjing to issue an order. After knowing that the Japanese pirates were completely wiped out, he took away all the battle reports. At the same time, he arranged for the people mentioned in the battle reports to conduct the Jinyiwei people in Jiangxi.

The purpose of checking in detail is to be able to make it clear when the emperor asked, Emperor Jiajing paid great attention to these details.

"A scholar, go and learn how to kill the enemy."

Emperor Jiajing said with a playful smile on his lips.

"I think that Wei Guangde is a military family after all, and maybe he has this preference if he hears and sees it."

Speaking of this, Chen Hong looked up at Emperor Jiajing above, and showed no expression. Then he continued: "Jiujiang had previously reported that Wei Guangde and Zhang Hongfu, who advocated attacking Japanese pirates, often rode out on horseback on weekdays.

The kung fu is pretty good right now.

On weekdays, Wei Guangde would get up at home in the morning to fight a boxing trip. It was all the way in the army, and so did Zhang Hongfu.

After all, he wants to assault his post. According to the rules of the Ministry of War, he wants to assault the command position, and his kung fu cannot be too ugly."

"Examination, who is his room teacher?"

Emperor Jiajing just smiled casually when he heard this, but continued to ask.

"It was pointed out by Kang Siqian, editor of the Hanlin Academy. I don't know what the specific situation is. After all, it's the Gongyuan, so maybe Commander Lu is more clear."

Chen Hong lowered his head and replied.

"Kang Siqian is Shanxi, right?"

Emperor Jiajing frowned slightly and asked after thinking for a while.

"Yes, I am from Linfen, Shanxi, and I am the same year as Li Chunfang and Lord Li. He was the priest of that year."

Every time Chen Hong met Emperor Jiajing, he would try his best to do his homework. He didn't want to give the emperor a confused impression and didn't know anything he asked.

"You go down and pay more attention to those."

After a while, Emperor Jiajing spoke up and asked him to go out.

Chen Hong got the order and immediately bowed and slowly retreated from the hall.

"Huang Jin, what do you think of Wei Guangde and Gongshi, who can still go to the battlefield to kill the enemy?"

After Chen Hong left, Emperor Jiajing suddenly asked Huang Jin, the eunuch who was serving beside him.

"Slaves are not from military households, so I don't know what the inheritance of military households is. I heard that every family will have some skills to pass on, so they should know more or less the ability to kill enemies in battle. I think that's the courage.

It’s inherited by the older generation. After all, their family is a hereditary family, and they will definitely not be able to get it without any military merits.

But for scholars, more energy should be placed on books."

Huang Jin didn't know what the attitude the master he followed had, so he could only tell him that he could not say that he was good or bad. Just be right.

"hehe."

Jiajing laughed, but he still couldn't tell what he was feeling at this moment.

Huang Jin could not guess Emperor Jiajing's psychology, but after thinking for a moment, he smiled flatteringly: "To be honest, the ward system set by our ancestors is quite good, and there are still some talents in the ward."

“More than a bucket.”

Emperor Jiajing sneered, not knowing who he had thought of.

Wei Guangde was on the first list. He was so excited that he didn't sleep well all night. He woke up the next day and followed Lao Kan, Xia Kefan and others to go to the Beijing Gongyuan to see the list.

The group took Wei Guangde's carriage and entered the inner city directly from Chongwenmen. Not long after, they turned right and entered Gongyuan Street.

Beijing Gongyuan is located in the southeast corner of the inner city, close to the city wall, and arrives here shortly after a long time of carriage.

Although the news of the test list has been passed on to the hands of the list after yesterday's newspaper, I still have unwillingness to come over and look at the apricot yellow list and try to find it

His own name, so when we arrived here, Wei Guangde and the others saw crowds of people.
