Chapter Ninety-ninth: Talented Eight Fights
Liu Wenshan and Jiang Chen were pardoned, so they hurriedly stood up and followed Fang Jifan tightly.
Following Enfu, he has a sign. Although he was scolded so much that he found it fulfilling and even if he was happy, he would be happy.
Fang Jifan approached Tang Yin, who was stunned, and smiled at him: "Xiao Tang, I'm waiting for you in the mansion, you must come."
"..." Tang Bohu was heartbroken and wanted to die of pain.
Fang Jifan’s two disciples both ended up being the ones, so is this considered losing?
At least in the market, the winning or losing standard in the bets held is that if there are three disciples of Fang Jifan, who can defeat Tang Yin, a talented man in Jiangnan, they will be considered to be Tang Yin lost.
I...really want to join this disciple of Fang Jifan?
This Fang Jifan is one... but one...
Thinking of that night, this prodigal son punched me and beat me up, clamoring that I was Wang Fa. After the beating, he still said to the policeman casually, "Tang Yin beat me, I forgive him."
Tang Yin was shaking all over, his old wound suddenly ached faintly, and tears blurred his eyes.
Fang Jifan was playing with his fragrant concubine fan in his hand, and knocked his bones on Tang Yin's shoulder. Fang Jifan said in a spring breeze: "Don't rush for a while. The big girl has to cry a few times when she gets into the sedan chair. Do you want to die by shaking the door frame? I... have time, okay, look, a few unsophisticated disciples are not very good at taking the exam, so go back and beat them up."
Leaving this sentence, ignoring everyone, holding his hands behind his back, looking at the world.
Wherever his eyes passed, those scholars who were staring at Fang Jifan were so ashamed that they avoided their eyes and did not dare to look at them.
This is a feeling of looking at the mountains at a glance. After ten years of hard work, it’s bullshit! Huiyuan, what’s the point? Fang Jifan kicked him over, and he had to lie on the ground and shouted at his teacher’s lesson.
Fang Jifan finally turned his eyes on the Fang brothers: "Two uncles...hello you guys."
"..." The Zhang brothers' eyes were a little dull. This time, they didn't even have the hypocrisy of smiling but not smiling, but their faces were stiff.
They still seem to be unable to accept the facts that happened in front of them.
"Uncle Shi, my nephew is leaving, see you again."
Fang Jifan pursed his lips and walked away.
Quiet……
Outside this tribute court, it is still quiet and terrible.
Everyone's face was ashen. This should be something that has never been read in cheers since the imperial examinations were held in all dynasties.
Those who should have been proud of themselves now always feel a little boring, like eunuchs entering the dong room, and they are happy if they are happy, but they are just a little regretful.
Tang Yin's face was sallow and his eyes were wet.
I want to cry, I want to cry loudly, I want to vent my feelings.
But before he could cry, someone around him started to cry.
"Oh my god! My silver..." Zhang Heling covered his heart and howled like a pig: "I'm 50,000 taels of silver, my coffin book, what kind of evil is this? I...god..."
Zhang Yanling hammered his chest and whistled to the sky: "Brother... I feel so distressed, brother..."
The two of them cried, which was so miserable and sad. The howling was about to break through the sky.
But when their crying was contagious, those who lost money wiped their tears secretly, and those who were passionate and unrestrained simply burst into tears. Those scholars who failed wanted to worry about some gentleness, but although their faces were stiff and unacceptable, their emotions were also exaggerated.
"Oh my God..." Countless condemnations to God shocked Jiutian. The people who hugged their heads and cried bitterly, their clothes were covered with tears. Some people cried and twitched and fell to the ground.
He sang sadly everywhere, and even those who were lucky enough to be sad and happy, even the noses of those who were lucky were sore, and they didn't know whether it was sad or happy. It seemed that... the title of the gold list became something that could not be shown off. So he came out in disgrace from the crowd with a serious expression, went back to his inn, and thanked the guests behind closed doors.
I won? I won. Which place I won? Alas... it's embarrassing!
…………
Fang Jifan heard the wailing behind him, and the faint crying sound was like a symphony. He stopped, and the three disciples behind him also stopped. Fang Jifan looked back, and the three of them also looked back.
"It's so miserable." Fang Jifan sighed: "Just just now, did I scold too much and hurt their self-esteem?" He shook his head and smiled bitterly. This is probably what the winners in life are. They will inevitably be proud of it. But... why do I still want to laugh now? Alas, I'm degenerate! When did our Fang Jifan become bad? There are bad people in the masses who have actually ruined me.
Shaking his head, he said to the three disciples who followed each other: "Look, this is the end of not being motivated by studying, don't learn from them."
Ouyang Zhi and the other two were extremely complicated. Looking at their mentors, they suddenly realized that their mentors were extremely majestic and tall. If they had no mentors, they would have been unable to reach this point in their lives. They complained about their mentors in a slight way, but now they were all empty. All they had just worshipped. Now they even raised their legs and sat and sucked their feet, but they no longer felt the indecent feeling they used to be. Instead, they felt that their mentors were like aliens who were unworldly, and even sucked their feet so free and heroic.
Mentor... Amazing!
…………
Forbidden City.
Today is the auspicious day for the announcement.
However, this list was released directly from the tribute court. Previously, the tribute court prohibited people from entering and leaving, so even in the palace, people had to be sent to view the list, and no one could get inside information in advance.
The Great Ceremony of Talents has always been valued by rulers. Every three years of recruiting scholars determines the direction of the court ten or twenty years later. Emperor Hongzhi is well aware of the principle that talents are rare, so early in the morning, he wears a crown and a crown robe, and waits in the warm pavilion.
Even the memorials sent from various prefectures and counties in the world were not in the mood to register.
After all, compared to the trivial matters of each province and government, what can I do to attend these three-year grand event?
Liu Jian, Xie Qian, Wang Ao, Ma Wenshengren and others are all here.
Today, Liu Jian specially asked His Majesty to summon Ma Wensheng to meet. On the one hand, he said that he might have to discuss the issue of Ma Zheng, because Ma Wensheng is the Minister of War and the Admiral of the Military Affairs of the Beijing Camp. After Ma Wensheng came, he was a little confused. When he heard His Majesty talk about the rankings of the Southern and Northern scholars in the past, this Ma Wensheng was quite confused.
Although he knew that neither Xie Qian nor Wang Ao were the kind of people with ulterior motives, on the contrary, their personalities were very open-minded.
But when they talked about the imperial examination, they were excited to count the hometowns of the senior and top students in previous sessions. Ma Wensheng wanted to die a little. Then he also saw that Liu Jian also looked like he was a god on the surface, but in fact he looked listless.
Ma Wensheng is from Yuzhou. In short, he is half of his fellow countrymen with Liu Jiannai. Both of them are under the jurisdiction of the Henan Provincial Administrator. His Jinshi in the second year of Jingtai was not ranked high and he could barely rank second. This is already good for a northerner.
But Xie Qian was the top scholar and Wang Ao was the first student in the imperial examination. This qualification was very famous. Today's imperial examination reminded Wang and Xie of the glory of previous years, so they were very excited.
Ma Wensheng looked at Liu Jian with a wry smile, muttering to himself, Mr. Liu, you and I are in the same hometown, why bother to bring me to suffer? He was so embarrassed that he couldn't speak, so he simply became a clay Buddha.
Emperor Hongzhi asked Shi Chen several times and couldn't help but feel anxious: "Have the results not been released yet? The auspicious time has passed, why is it so slow?"
"Your Majesty." said the little eunuch: "I have sent someone to urge me. If there is no delay, as long as the list is released, it will be delivered immediately."
"Well..." Emperor Hongzhi looked at Wang Ao again and said, "Master Wang, you said this just now, aren't you sure that this time? This time, I'm probably Tang Yin?"
"I am 50% sure, but Your Majesty should also know that the Jie Yuan in Zhejiang and the Jiangxi Provincial Administration and the Jie Yuan in Jiangxi Provincial Administration are also great talents. The Hui Yuan in history has mostly come from the three places of Southern Zhili, Zhejiang and Jiangxi. However, this time, the Jie Yuan Tang Yin in Southern Zhili became more famous and only defeated Jiangsu and Zhejiang."
Emperor Hongzhi nodded thoughtfully: "Yes, Jiangxi was originally Jiangnan West Road, Yingtianfu and Zhejiang were Jiangnan East Road, collectively known as Jiangnan. This place in Jiangnan has a prosperous literary style, which is indeed a big deal. I may not have such knowledge in the past. After all, all the ministers and ministers were the same dynasty and were divided into worries for me. I didn't know that the origins of these ministers were different."
Xie Qian smiled and said, "There are talents everywhere in the two capitals and thirteen provinces. The reason why Jiangnan has a prosperous literary style is actually related to its prosperity, so it cannot be generalized."
Chapter completed!
