Seeing Man Bao, Bai Dalang couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you go home and rest?"

Bai Erlang sat down next to his brother and said: "Going home is for rest, and eating and drinking in the teahouse is also for rest. It's better to be here. It's not fun at home."

Bai Shan brought a teacup to Man Bao and poured tea, and explained with a smile: "Today is the last day, so let's take a look and wait for Liu Huan to come out."

In fact, there were many people waiting for the candidates to come out in the teahouse, but half of them were there to watch the excitement, and the other half came with other intentions. On the contrary, there were not many family members who were really anxiously waiting.

Most of the relatives were squatting not far from the gate of Gongyuan at this time, as if being closer to the examination room would allow the relatives inside to feel their strength and pass the exam.

Manbao felt much better as he listened to the sound of storytelling and the constant cheering downstairs.

Bai Shan called the waiter to order a lot of dishes for her to eat. When she was full, she sat by the window with a cup of tea and watched the guests arriving downstairs. There was a loud "clang" in the Gongyuan.

, Bai Shan also put down the teacup in his hand and said, "They are coming out."

Man Bao immediately said: "Let's go, let's pick them up."

They heard the second gong sound only when they went downstairs. When they reached the gate of Gongyuan, the third gong sounded and the gate of Gongyuan was slowly opened.

The candidates inside filed out.

Among them were many of their acquaintances, including Wei Chen, Song Zheng and Ji Hao, as well as fellow Imperial College students Yun Xinxuan, Feng Chenxiang and Zhang Jinghao who were not familiar with them.

As soon as they came out, the servants of the family rushed to pick them up.

Liu Huan had the most people around him, because his home was in the capital. Not only did the servants come, but also a lot of servants, including Bai Shan and others, surrounded Liu Huan immediately.

"How did you do on the exam?"

"Have you answered everything?"

"Is the question difficult?"

Liu Huan entered the examination room with Bai Dalang's uncle Chang Heng, and they happened to be not far apart, so they came out together.

The two of them were stunned by these questions as soon as they came out. There were so many candidates here. Chang Heng didn't dare to brag. He could only say modestly: "Fortunately, I answered a few questions and didn't hand in a blank paper."

Liu Huan calmed down and said, "I think I did pretty well in the exam. All the questions were familiar to me and I answered them correctly. I think I did pretty well in the exam."

Growth Heng:……

Candidates on the side:...

So the scene fell silent for a moment and someone immediately said loudly: "This year's questions are not difficult. I remember all the scriptures and answered them all."

"Really? Congratulations. It just so happens that I did a good job with my answers. At least the papers are filled up."

"Before I took the exam, I thought the Ming Jing exam would be difficult. I didn't expect it to be so easy. It was even easier than the questions asked by the gentlemen in the college."

After hearing this, Liu Huan became anxious and whispered to Bai Shan: "So many people have done well in the exam, can I still pass the exam?"

Bai Shan: "...The exam is over. It's useless to think about it. Let's go have dinner."

Liu Huan was worried, "If I fail the exam, my grandfather will beat me, right?"

Man Bao comforted him, "No, didn't we already agree before that we would celebrate your title after you finish the exam?"

Liu Huan became even more uneasy, "But the Ming Jing examination was given by His Majesty. If I fail, my grandfather will definitely beat me."

Bai Shan and Bai Erlang pulled him and said, "So you should take advantage of these two days before the results are released. Otherwise, if you miss it, you will really miss it."

Liu Huan:……

Seeing that he was so sad that he was about to cry, Man Bao couldn't help but become happy and comforted him: "It's okay, it's okay, we'll treat you to a meal."

After two days of fussing with his friends, Manbao felt much better. On the third day, the results were released.

Several people followed and ran to see.

Bai Shandao: "I heard that a total of 280 people will be recruited for the Ming Jing this time."

Bai Erlang was speechless, "It's almost ten times as long as the Jinshi exam. I also want to take the Ming Jing exam."

Bai Shan said: "You can try the Jinshi test again this fall. If you don't pass, you can take the Mingjing test next year. Otherwise, you will have to wait for the imperial examination."

Bai Erlang said: "How can a regular subject be better than a regular subject? Brother, if you still fail to pass the exam in the fall, do you want to take the Ming Jing exam with me?"

Bai Dalang:......

He calculated his age and nodded.

Bai Shan said: "Brother, there is no need."

He said: "I heard that last year, my eldest brother's ranking was not low. He was just one step away from entering. Now your reputation in the capital is not bad. If you don't win this year, you can try for a few more years. Although you are the same as a Jinshi

If you want to become an official, those who pass the Jinshi imperial examination are still two points better than those who pass the Mingjing examination."

Bai Erlang muttered, "Isn't it the same as the imperial examination? They all have to go up step by step. I don't think there is much difference."

Bai Shandao: "It's not obvious in the first ten years, but you can see the difference when you get promoted after ten years."

He said: "County magistrates of the same level are both top-notch in assessment, but when they are promoted, the one with a Jinshi degree will be chosen first, and the one with a Mingjing degree will stay, but if there are another Jinshi with the same qualifications as you in the next year,

What about fighting?"

Bai Dalang also nodded, "Yes, the gentlemen in the school also say that if you can pass the Jinshi exam, then take the Jinshi exam. If you can't pass the exam, or you really don't want to take the exam, you can take the Ming Jing or other subjects."

Bai Erlang thought about it for a while and wondered, "Why didn't you let me insist on taking the Jinshi examination?"

Bai Shandao: "Because you don't have the perseverance to study."

He said: "My cousin can persist in studying for another ten years. Can you do that?"

Bai Erlang: He can't.

Bai Dalang: He can do it, but he is not very happy.

Liu Huan also thought about it for a moment, then licked his lips and said, "I can't do it either."

Therefore, many of the students who came to take the exam this time were from the Imperial College. They all felt that they would not pass the Jinshi exam, so they came to take the Ming Jing Ke test.

When the Ming Jing Ke Ke released the results, there were more people to see the results than the Jin Shi Ke Ke Ke, and it was even more lively. The big people were crowded, so Bai Shan and the others simply stopped crowding and went into the teahouse to let the boys watch.

After a long while, he ran back with disheveled hair and shouted: "I'm hit, I'm hit, Mr. Lang, you're hit."

Liu Huan was so happy that he stood up immediately, rushed out to grab a message, and asked happily, "How many, how many, are any of them at the top..."

"One hundred and twenty!"

He smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed, and he said cheerfully: "Master, you'd better go from the middle to the top."

Liu Huan was slightly disappointed. Bai Shan and others had already stepped forward to congratulate him, "Congratulations, congratulations, you are in for a treat today."

Even Chang Heng also congratulated him, and then waited even more anxiously.

Bai Erlang's sharp eyes saw his eldest brother's servant by the window. Seeing the joy on his face, he had a guess in his heart. He immediately put his head out and asked, "Xi Mo, has your uncle been hit?"

Xi Mo raised his head and when he saw the second young master, he shouted loudly: "I got it, I got it, my uncle got the 87th place in the exam."
