Chapter 183 End

The next morning at Si, the three-year imperial examination ended on time. When the door of the hushang door was opened, countless students rushed out of the hushang and walked into the bright sunshine. The spring was just right, the sun was shining, and the branches were green, which was the time of vitality. Many of them also began the spring of life from this moment on. Because from the moment they walked out of the hushang, their destiny was basically foregone conclusion.

Fang Zi'an narrowed his eyes and walked out of the house with the crowd. At the edge of the square to the east, Chunni, who was looking forward to it, ran over happily when she saw Fang Zi'an, and was excited to hold Fang Zi'an's arm regardless of the public's eyes. After returning to the cart and putting all the bedding packages into the cart, Fang Zi'an breathed a long sigh.

"Husband, it's very difficult to endure inside. I heard that the number house is like a prison, and there is also a need to answer questions. When it's very cold at night, I always wonder if you'll be frozen inside. I'm not sleeping for the past three days, so I just miss you." Chunni looked at Fang Zian and smiled, revealing her true feelings in her eyes.

Fang Zian laughed and said, "It's not just a hard work, it's simply a torment. I don't want to take the imperial examination in my life. It's better to pass this time, otherwise I won't come for the second time. I don't want to be like those people, if I take the exam for ten or twenty years, my hair will be gray."

At this moment, Fang Zian had indeed walked by two very old students. They were indeed gray-haired and wrinkled on their faces, and they were hunched over, as if they were about to die. But in fact, they were only thirty or forty years. Because that kind of old attitude was not the aging produced by the years, but the feeling of exhaustion after exhaustion.

"What my husband said is that since we suffer so much, we will not suffer this. For only this time, the court does not want a husband, so we don't care." Chunni nodded and said.

Fang Zian reached out and pinched her nose, and smiled and said, "Others want their husbands to be in high school. Why do I feel like you don't want me to be successful?"

"There is no such thing as me. I don't want my husband to be unhappy. It's not that we can't survive. Even if my husband is not an official, it's okay. At worst, I can go to a noodle restaurant to make money and can support us. If my husband is not an official, Chunni's husband, whom Chunni serves, is like the official at home." Chunni said.

Fang Zi'an was extremely moved when he heard this. Although Chunni did not understand poetry, songs, and could not play music, chess, calligraphy and painting, her emotions were simple and real. She loved herself, and she didn't care no matter how hard or tired she was. How could such passionate love not touch Fang Zi'an?

"Well, I am worthy of being my woman, Fang Zi'an, I can take it and put it down. I'm lucky if I get it, but it doesn't matter if I can't get it. Many people are not so open-minded than my Chunni. When I go home, I miss your spicy hot spring egg noodles. I have to eat three big bowls after I go back." Fang Zi'an laughed.

Chunni smiled and said, "Don't talk about three big bowls, three big pots will be done. By the way, Miss Qin said it was inconvenient to come to the gate of Gongyuan, she was waiting for you at home."

Fang Zi'an nodded and said, "Then let's go, I won't wait for Brother Qian and Changlin, they will come to the door anyway. Let's go."

The couple got on the car, and the servants who drove the car rushed to leave. Behind them, there were crowds of people in Gongyuan Square. Countless students were gushing out from the gate of Gongyuan, and accompanied by family and friends, scattering into several streets, disappearing into the streets and alleys shrouded in spring in Lin'an City.

When Fang Zi'an returned home, Qin Xiqing was indeed at home

After waiting for a long time, Qin Xiqing was also very happy when she saw Fang Zi'an coming back. Chunni arranged to burn hot water and let Fang Zi'an wash it thoroughly, put on clean clothes, and after cooking her beard and bun, Fang Zi'an was radiant.

"How was the exam? Are you sure?" Qin Xiqing asked directly in the small hall of the back house.

Fang Zi'an almost laughed out loud. This is the difference between Qin Xiqing and Chunni. Chunni didn't care whether she could go high school at all, because that was not the first in her mind. Qin Xiqing didn't hurt. She wouldn't be like Chunni, just like Chunni, and didn't care about anything else. That doesn't mean her reality, but it's a kind of calmness and rationality, because only she understands what the imperial examination means to Fang Zi'an, and that is Fang Zi'an's future and future.

"God knows!" Fang Zian smiled and said, "This is not something I can decide. I said my articles are as beautiful as a beauty, and the examiner may think it is a pile of garbage."

Qin Xiqing gave Fang Zi'an a blank look and said softly: "That is the reason why Mr. Shi promised to be the chief examiner this year. You are afraid that you don't know that Lord Shi is one of the chief examiners this year."

Fang Zian smiled and said, "I know about this. Miss Ningyue came to tell me three days ago."

Qin Xiqing was stunned, and looked at Fang Zi'an with deep meaning and smiled: "Oh? Does Shi Ningyue often come here?"

Fang Zian shook his head and said, "It's only this time."

Qin Xiqing thought about it and did not ask much, and continued: "There are three chief examiners in the court this year, one is the chief minister Wanqie, the other is Tang Situi, the assistant minister of the Privy Council, and the other is Lord Shi. Wanqie and Tang Situi are both traitors promoted by Qin Hui, you know that. Originally, the three chief examiners appointed by Qin Hui were all his people, and the other was Wei Shixun, the newly promoted Minister of Rites. Wei Shixun is now a celebrity around Qin Hui. He is only in his thirties this year, so he was promoted to Minister of Rites."

Fang Zian frowned and said, "Wei Shixun? I've seen him."

Qin Xiqing said in surprise: "Have you seen him? How could you know him?"

Fang Zi'an said: "He was the examiner of the autumn examination examination of Lin'an Prefecture last year. He taught us students. I know him, but he may not know me."

Qin Xiqing suddenly said, "So that's it. I actually forgot about this. Yes, this person who made Qin Tan understand Yuan was this person. From this, he showed that he was extremely shameless and did such a thing in order to flatter him. No wonder he was promoted so quickly. He was a Jinshi in the previous class and became an important member of the court in just three years. It's unbelievable."

Fang Zian smiled and said, "That's the benefit of repaying Qin Hui's thighs. Isn't it surprising that so many people bow down to Qin Hui, isn't it because of this?"

Qin Xiqing sighed: "It's all about scholars. I've read the books of sages into the dog's belly. They are so despicable that they are so embarrassed."

Fang Zi'an sighed: "It would be fine if they really knew it was ashamed. If Wei Shixun became one of the chief examiners, wouldn't Qin Hui let Qin Hui do whatever he wanted in this spring exam? He would let anyone in high school. The prince and Lord Shi must feel that they could not let them do what they did, so they would strive for the position of chief examiner."

Qin Xiqing nodded and said, "That's right. How can they let them do whatever they want? But this time it was not the prince's attention. The prince almost caused trouble for the officials who impeached Qin Hui last time, so he didn't want to

What to do. But Mr. Shi couldn't stand it. He recommended himself to the emperor, hoping to be one of the chief examiners of the spring examination. The emperor used to let him be the chief examiner, but he refused. This time he took the initiative to ask, and the emperor naturally agreed. He heard that Wei Shixun thought he could show his face, but he was kicked out by Lord Shi. He was extremely dissatisfied in private and said a lot of strange words."

Fang Zian laughed and said, "Mr. Shi is a good person. Sometimes the prince is too aggressive and sometimes too cautious. If he doesn't take action at this time, when will he take action? It is a huge matter to be selected for the imperial examination. How can Qin Hui be completely controlled? Didn't that hand over the future of the entire court to him? The emperor is not confused."

Qin Xiqing nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Shi is still planning to act. I hope that this time, there will be some candidates who are not afraid of Qin Hui and will be promoted to the government, and there will be more power to fight against the old thieves in the court. Of course, what I hope most is that you can win."

Fang Zian smiled and said, "I dare not guarantee this. Anything can happen in the big exam. Master Shi didn't miss me a question in advance. If I don't pass the exam, I blame Master Shi."

Qin Xiqing gave him a blank look and said, "Why do you blame Master Shi? You really dare to say this? Do you want to cheat?"

Fang Zian laughed and said, "I only cheated on real talent and knowledge. If I don't become an official, it's a loss for the court. I'm fine. Chunni said that even if she doesn't become an official, she can support me as a trunk. By the way, when it comes to face... Chunni... where is my face? I'm so greedy."

Fang Zi'an shouted outside the door. Chunni came far away with a tray and replied, "Here's here, have you not eaten for three days? Are you so anxious?"

A big bowl of fragrant Yangchun's noodles were on the table. Fang Zian was not polite and asked someone to pick up the chopsticks, snorting in Qin Xiqing's eyes and Chunni's smile.

The next morning, Qian Kang and Zhao Changlin came together. After they came out of the Gongyuan yesterday, they waited in the square for a while but didn't see Fang Zi'an, so they went home. They had a good rest yesterday, and they were in a hurry to see Fang Zi'an this morning.

The three of them were naturally happy when they met. After the greetings, the topic they talked about was naturally about the spring exam, and asked the other party how they were taking the exam.

"I have no hope anyway, I can feel it. I probably broke it. I hope Brother Zi'an and Brother Changlin can go to high school." Qian Kang was very frustrated when he said this.

Zhao Changlin said: "Brother Qian, don't be discouraged. The result has not been released and everything has not yet been concluded. Even if you fail this time, you cannot give up. You will be able to study hard for three years and come back."

Qian Kang waved his hand and said, "I'm not going to do it anymore. If I fail this time, I won't take the exam. I'll do something else. I'll be a errand for Brother Zi'an."

Zhao Changlin looked at Fang Zi'an and said, "Brother Zi'an advised him. I have been persuading him for a day yesterday, and it's all this attitude. How can this happen?"

Fang Zian smiled and said, "There is no need to persuade me. The imperial examination may not be the only way. Can't I survive if I fail the exam? Besides, it's too early to say these things now."

Zhao Changlin bulged his eyes and said nothing, Fang Zi'an and Qian Kang laughed.

The topic gradually deepened. When talking about this year's exam questions, Zhao Changlin asked Fang Zi'an: "Brother Zi'an, how did you write the final strategy? What is the perspective of the entry?"

Fang Zi'an answered truthfully, and Zhao Changlin changed color after hearing this and said, "Brother Zi'an, do you really write this way? Even if it's going to be in trouble."
