Chapter Eighty-ninth: Folding Laurel
The exam results were released, and there were rules, from low to high, and they were announced one by one. First, the inner curtain officials gave the results, and then handed them to the outside officials to read them in public. Finally, the list officials posted a complete list of fame and honor on the exterior wall of the examination school.
It doesn’t take too long to finish the entire process. After all, the total number of admitted people is only six.
In fact, the fame and number of rankings of Juren have no actual impact. This is different from the Emperor’s Examination. The Jinshi admitted to the Emperor’s Examination are very rigorous in rankings, one and two grades, and they come out to be an official, and they have a different salary and rank.
But no matter what exam, it is always a good thing to be ranked among the top. The top student is named "Xieyuan". If you say it, the name is different.
Everyone calmed down and nervously waited for the reading of the surreptitious official.
After a while, a minor official sealed it with a roll of blue paper in his hand and handed it to the civil servant standing at the door.
This survivor is accustomed to doing this, holding a blue strip of paper sealed and slowly unpacking it.
This slow movement made everyone waiting and watching anxious, and they wanted to rush up and snatch the paper seal to see it.
They stretched their necks and raised their ears, and they almost cursed: "Master, can you hurry up..."
"The sixth place in the exam for the examination in Panzhou is from Hengyun Township, Song County. Zhang Chunlin is like this. Congratulations to Mr. Zhang!"
After passing the exam, he was qualified as an alternate official, and his title was upgraded, and he transformed himself into a "master".
"I've won, I've won!"
In the crowd, a man stumbled out, screaming like a devilish man, clapping his palms, crying and laughing, like a madman.
Seeing that he was wearing thin clothes, with several patches on it, his scattered hair was vaguely gray, and he probably was in a very embarrassed family.
However, after passing this exam, it will inevitably be effective. I dare not say that I can become an official, but at least I have guaranteed food and clothing. My status and status have been improved even more, and I am no longer a poor scholar.
Zhang Chunlin lost his composure on the spot, but no one sneered. He looked at him one by one, full of envy. Everyone in his heart hoped that he could have such a chance to be crazy...
A paper seal is announced, which means that there is a missing place. No one named after the name is called, and it cannot hide its disappointment.
After waiting for a while, the clerk sent out the second paper seal.
When the name was read out, a similar scene happened again.
"Why……"
At this time, Tao Hao, who was standing next to Chen Tang, couldn't help sighing and his expression became depressed. He knew in his heart that he was really out of the way this year.
As names are announced one after another, scenes of joy, anger, sorrow and happiness are constantly being staged. In just one morning, you can see all the successes, failures, joys, and laughter and crazy.
Soon, the last place was left.
"Let's go..."
Tao Hao looked disappointed. He no longer had any hope. He just wanted to leave this sad place as soon as possible, drink some pain, and have fun.
Wang Fu didn't take the exam this year, and his mentality was very calm. He patted Chen Tang on the shoulder and comforted him: "It's okay, this year I'm just a trial. I'll wait for the homework to review my homework and make a comeback next year. I will definitely win the toad palace."
Chen Tang said: "There is another quota that has not been announced..."
I was really nervous. Could it be that I really failed the exam?
This is not a strange thing. Every year, I don’t know how many people with full confidence fail in the exam.
The difficulty of the imperial examination lies in too many uncertainties.
Chen Tang remembers that in history, there were many talented men with great knowledge who were depressed and unable to achieve success all their lives and could not get a fame.
Tao Hao and Wang Fu knew that Chen Tang was not giving up, but since he was here, it didn't matter after listening to the list.
Downtown!
The minor official walked out with solid steps, holding the last paper seal in his hand, and handed it to the provincial affairs official.
This time, the surviving official disassembled it quickly and read it loudly: "The first place in Panzhou examination is the first in Gaotian Township, Panzhou Prefecture. Chen Tang and Chen Bujin are just like Chen Jieyuan!"
With a "wow", the whole scene became a little uncontrollable.
"I've won, I've won!"
Wang Fu's eyes widened and screamed almost hysterically.
Hurry!
A large group of people rushed over immediately and surrounded Wang Fu, smiling all over his face: "Congratulations to Chen Jieyuan!"
"Mr. Chen, our family invites you to have a drink..."
He put it on Wang Fu and wanted to pull him away.
Wang Fu blushed and waved his hand quickly: "No, I'm not..."
But the buzzing sounds are so loud that we can clearly distinguish them.
Tao Hao was stunned for a moment, and saw his father rushing towards him quickly, pulling his son with one hand and Chen Tang with the other, and walking out in a hurry.
Tao Hao was shocked and woke up, smiling with a smile on his face: "No, congratulations! Congratulations!"
Chen Tang was a little dizzy. Although he was a man for two lifetimes and was quite confident before the exam, he still couldn't help but feel at ease when he heard this result.
Tao Hao and his son came in a carriage, and half-pushed and half-helped Chen Tang into the carriage, and quickly ordered the coachman to drive.
Sure enough, the group of people behind finally knew that they had gotten the wrong partner, and they all caught up with them, shouting: "Don't leave Chen Jieyuan!"
"Chen Jieyuan, please stay..."
"Chen Jieyuan, my daughter, Youhua 28, is willing to receive three thousand dollars in dowry..."
"I'll pay five thousand..."
Wang Fu was left alone, standing there in sharp contrast with the scene like stars holding the moon just now. His eyes were a little dull and he murmured, "I haven't gotten in the car yet..."
Not long after, the people who could not catch up with the carriage turned back and surrounded Wang Fu again:
"Are you Chen Jieyuan's classmate?"
"Where is Chen Jieyuan's family living? Have you ever married..."
Upon hearing this, Wang Fu's back suddenly became straight again, his expression was glorious, and he was honored.
But Chen Tang, who was sitting in the carriage, gradually calmed down and felt relieved.
He suddenly remembered something and quickly stroked his wrist with his hands. The two bulges were still there and it was not eliminated.
I was stunned: Didn’t I pass the exam? Why is the teacher’s grudge still there?
What's going on?
Does it require a certain amount of time to buffer? And what else is missing?
Chen Tang was very depressed. It is certainly a good thing to pass the imperial examination, but eliminating the grudges is more important. Every time the pain occurs, it is not easy to feel.
He suddenly thought that he had just announced the admission list, but the book of fame and fortune has not been obtained yet, and he still lacks a real written document, which may be related to this.
Thinking about this level, he quickly asked, "Uncle Tao, where are you going to pull me?"
Tao Yuanwai laughed and said, "Of course I'm sending you home."
When the toad palace is filled with osmanthus and fame is obtained, the first thought of a person is to return home in glory.
This Taoist is very thoughtful and knows that at this time, Chen Tang must have wanted to go home, and he has to stay at home, waiting for a special person to send good news and fame books.
