The group came to the tribute school with great enthusiasm to look at the list. Because they learned in advance that Ma Mingfeng had already had high school results, everyone was very happy.

As soon as Ma Mingfeng went out, he happened to meet Fang Yizhi. The two of them congratulated each other, and Fang Yizhi seemed more respectful to Ma Mingfeng. After all, Ma Mingfeng is ranked high and is more likely to be named Hanlin in the future. In addition, Ma Mingfeng is younger, but he can be the same year as him, which means that Ma Mingfeng is likely to go further.

Ma Mingfeng asked Fang Yizhi about the purpose of this trip, but he also went to see the list. However, Fang Yizhi was concerned about his friend Chen Zhenhui, hoping to get news that his friend was on the list.

Ma Mingfeng shook his head secretly because he knew that Chen Zhenhui would definitely not have won the imperial examination this time, otherwise he would have had his name in this imperial examination. In his impression, Chen Zhenhui seemed to have not won the imperial examination in the end.

However, Ma Mingfeng did not directly tell the cruel fact. After all, Fang Yizhi is still in his hope and pouring cold water on others at this time. He is a bit cruel, let alone even if he says it, how can he explain the fact that he knows the result?

The group of people finished their breakfast in a vast way, then came to the tribute court and followed the abortion to Zhangbang.

In fact, he had already known his own result, and Ma Mingfeng had no friends to worry about. In the eyes of insiders, he came here purely to see all kinds of things and find a sense of superiority.

Of course, these are not the main purpose of Ma Mingfeng coming here. He mainly wanted to attract some talents here. After all, he is now a Jinshi, and he will definitely find a way to leave the capital soon. In this case, it is natural to train and win over a few more staff members.

As soon as Ma Mingfeng arrived at Zhangbang, he saw Shi Kecheng coming to him with a depressed look on his face. When he saw Ma Mingfeng giving a rare bow, he said respectfully: "Brother Ma, congratulations to Jinke High School, I will still need your care in the future."

Ma Mingfeng just bowed and said, "Brother Ling has been a Jinshi for more than ten years. Now he is the Prince Taibao and the deputy general of the general Zuo Liangyu, the thief general, has a bright future. How can I take care of him?"

"My brother, hehe..." Shi Kecheng smiled bitterly, but he was unwilling to expose his brother, so he had to bow and turn and leave.

Ma Mingfeng watched Shi Kecheng leave, thinking about something.

It seems that Shi Kefa is indeed a righteous person. He will definitely disagree with his brother's clever words and despise, and it is even possible to criticize him many times.

"Oh, the future pillar of Nanming is also an unshirkable responsibility for the demise of Nanming. This Shi Kefa is really a headache." Ma Mingfeng couldn't help but smile bitterly. At least until now, he didn't know how to deal with his relationship with Shi Kefa at that time.

Not long after, Ma Mingfeng saw another familiar face. This person was Ma Mingfeng's fellow villager Pan Xun. The young man was proud and had a very literary talent, but he failed this exam.

Seeing this, Ma Mingfeng hurriedly comforted Pan Xun and hoped that he could stay and prepare for another exam.

But Pan Xun didn't know what was wrong, but he was discouraged and decided to return home, and he didn't come to his next exam.

Seeing that the advice was fruitless, Ma Mingfeng stopped talking about it. After all, the other party was the son of the Yunnan governor and a juren. It was relatively easy to get the election of the Ministry of Rites, and there was no need to suffer any further blows in the imperial examination.

Then Ma Mingfeng saw Luo Mingkui again. Jie Yuan, who was the Guizhou provincial examination last year, failed the imperial examination, which also caused him a heavy blow.

Ma Mingfeng also persuaded him. Luo Mingkui was willing to take the exam again, but he felt that he had no face to stay by Ma Mingfeng's side, so he rejected Ma Mingfeng's suggestion and turned around and left.

Ma Mingfeng's fellow villagers Hu Tianyu and Ni Zhihua were also defeated in the exam. Hu Tianyu was a little willing to follow Ma Mingfeng, but his father told him that if he didn't pass the exam, he would go home immediately because their family was too poor and his father was still sick, so he was waiting for him to go back to work as an official and earn money to support his family.

Ma Mingfeng gave Hu Tianyu a hundred taels of silver and asked him to go back and see his father well. If he wanted to take the exam, he would take the next exam again. If he really didn't want to take the exam, he would become an official.

Hu Tianyu was very moved by Ma Mingfeng. He said that if he had the chance in the future, he would repay Ma Mingfeng's kindness, take the money and leave with gratitude.

After listening to Ma Mingfeng's persuasion, Ni Zhihua finally agreed to stay, which made Ma Mingfeng excited. As a juren, the other party actually agreed to be his staff. This is really unbelievable. He just wanted to take the opportunity to win over and let these people remember that they had someone like him. Once the Nanming was established, they would have a greater chance of seeking back to him. I really didn't expect that someone would seek back to him directly now.

In addition, among the friends Ma Mingfeng knew, Wang Xi successfully passed the imperial examination, and the two naturally congratulated each other enthusiastically. Moreover, Wang Xi is an upright person, Ma Mingfeng has always had a good relationship with him, and now it is the same year, so the relationship is naturally closer.

Another friend, Ji Tengjiao, was not so lucky. He also failed the exam this time. However, after listening to Ma Mingfeng's advice, he decided to stay in the capital for the next exam. However, Ji Tengjiao was short of money and stayed in the capital for three years, which might be difficult to support, so he secretly made up his mind that even if he sold characters and paintings, he would have to persist for these three years.

Unexpectedly, Ma Mingfeng knew about Ji Tengjiao before, so he proposed to rent a house in the western suburbs of the capital. Because the house was large and there was no end to live in, he invited Ji Tengjiao to live with him.

Ji Tengjiao was very grateful to Ma Mingfeng. The biggest problem of staying in the capital was solved, and it would be much better in the next three years.

Just when Ma Mingfeng felt that he would never meet an acquaintance again and decided to leave, he heard someone behind him sighed: "The Ming Dynasty officialdom is so dark, how can it not perish? After this scientific examination, I no longer expect anything. I just hope to take care of my sick father, the Ming Dynasty, and the Qing people, which have nothing to do with me."

When Ma Mingfeng heard this, he was surprised. Who was so bold? He even publicly accused the darkness of the Ming Dynasty and dared to curse the demise of the Ming Dynasty. This was thanks to the crowd of people who smashed it, otherwise he would have been arrested and executed immediately.

So Ma Mingfeng turned around and saw a young man. He saw that the other party was about twenty years old, tall, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a heavy face, looking very majestic. If he didn't know, he would think that Guan Yu was reborn.

So Ma Mingfeng bowed and said, "Brother, be careful in his words and actions. It will not be beneficial for him to say such words."
