Chapter 98: Leaping over the Dragon Gate, the sky rises
(If you read it well, please like it!)
Zhou Hezhi was full of bitterness, and Gu Linchuan was also quite disappointed. He had not heard his name so far, and his mind was just like Zhou Hezhi, and he felt that there was unlikely a miracle to happen later. Fortunately, he was much younger than Old Zhou. This time he failed and would make a comeback next time.
But Chen Sanlang...
The two looked at each other and did not mention this in a tacit understanding.
Among the three, Chen Sanlang is the youngest and in his prime. No matter what, he still has a bright future.
Da da da da da!
Another horse-trial report was delivered - not all scholars stayed in the inn, and some of them were not here, but at home. Naturally, some people delivered the victory report to their homes according to their hometown on the registration form; as for those who are out of town, they have to be delayed by a period of time and pass the newspaper through the post station.
In fact, those who have received the good news are still dedicated to the place where they are from, and even the in-laws will report the news to show their grand congratulations.
When the victory report reached the third place, the speed suddenly slowed down. The previous report was one quarter of an hour, but now it was not fast enough to wait until two quarters of an hour.
About half an hour later, the second place was announced, and this is called "Yayuan", which has a different meaning from the previous juren.
The scholar who was admitted to the Central Asian Yuan Dynasty was named Ye and his courtesy name was "Outong". He was a famous talent in Jiangnan. He was over 1980s and had a great reputation in the literary world. This time he won the Asian Yuan Dynasty, he deserved it.
There are many talented men in Jiangnan, and newcomers are born in the generation. However, many talented men have passed the provincial examination early and participated in this year's class, and Ye Outong is the most famous.
Chen Sanlang once saw him from afar. He was handsome and gentle. He didn't seem to have much of the arrogance of the so-called "talented man" and looked very gentle. He just didn't have the right opportunity. He didn't know each other.
At this point, there is only the last place left, which is the first place "Xieyuan".
In Longmen Inn, dozens of scholars couldn't help but look at each other. The 28 people who had won the imperial examinations before only three of them accounted for. This proportion was very shabby, but the number of people who won the imperial examinations was much higher than that of other inns.
At this moment, a scholar was thinking: "Is Longmen Inn afflicted Tai Sui this year? The year is not good... Alas, I knew I wouldn't have stayed in this inn at the beginning. It would be great to switch to Qingyun Inn. Qingyun is going straight up, which is auspicious. But, there are seven or eight Juren there today..."
The shopkeeper of Longmen Inn leaned against the counter, looking depressed: the inn market this year is deserted and his reputation is damaged. In the future, how can he compete for those peers?
Qin Yushu couldn't sit still, and there was only one place left. But there were still hundreds of people waiting for him. Can he fall on his own? If it was really his own, it would be Jie Yuan, who was beyond ordinary juren.
Thinking of this possibility, his heart was pounding and he couldn't help it.
"Calm down, be sure to calm down..."
I kept reminding myself. I calmed down and recalled the questions and articles in the exam room, each one doing neatly, standard and standard without any mistakes.
If such an article is not approved, it will be difficult for nature to tolerate it!
Get it!
The last sound of horse hooves rang out.
The scholars could no longer sit still, so they flocked out of the inn, stood outside in dark waiting, washing their ears and listening.
Zhou Hezhi and Gu Linchuan couldn't help but follow the crowd. When they went out, Zhou Hezhi turned around and saw Chen Sanlang sitting on a chair, looking inexplicably lonely in the empty inn.
Old Zhou sighed in his heart: Although youth is the greatest capital, it is really hard to say that a person's energy is very difficult to say. When his spirit is in full swing, he missed his dream. From then on, the situation has worsened and he cannot turn over again. As the ancients said: One round of energy will fade away again, and three outsourcing...
These things are also very particular about the imperial examination.
With the sound of horse hooves, the messenger reported to the messenger saw a group of people waiting in front of him, and was willing to show off. He pulled his throat open dozens of feet away. He was born with a good voice, and his voice was like thunder:
"Good news for the provincial examination! Chen Hui, the eldest master of He Nanyang Mansion, originally won the first place in the Yangzhou provincial examination, and Jie Yuan in high school..."
Buzz!
The crowd immediately exploded and riots began.
"I've won, I've really won!"
Zhou Hezhi walked slowly just now and did not squeeze into the front. Now, when he heard that the name of Jie Yuan really fell on Chen Sanlang's head, he couldn't help but clapping his hands and shouting, happy for him.
"Congratulations!"
"Congratulations to Brother Chen for passing Jie Yuan's examination. From now on, fish leaps on the dragon gate and soars into the yellow gate, and is just around the corner..."
"Brother Chen, my cousin's aunt is married in Nanyang Mansion..."
"Has Mr. Chen married? I have a daughter, and I am only two or eighty-year-old flower..."
A bunch of people subconsciously surrounded Zhou Hezhi and regarded him as Chen Yuan.
Zhou Hezhi's old face turned red and he quickly shook his hand and said, "It's not me, it's not me, Chen Yuan is in the inn."
So a large group of people rushed into the inn to find someone again, but where was Chen Sanlang's trace?
The shopkeeper of Longmen Inn was blushing and extremely excited. A Jie Yuan came out of the inn, which was better than the ten other juren. He suddenly felt proud and said loudly: "Mr. Jie Yuan heard the good news just now, and he felt relieved. He went out of the toilet behind."
Hurry!
Without saying anything, people rushed to the toilet again and wanted to congratulate Chen Sanlang as soon as possible.
Zhou Hezhi and Gu Linchuan were squeezed back aside and shook their heads and smiled bitterly: This is the difference between the winning and not the winning and the winning and the winning and the Jie Yuan...
In fact, these people who were watching the noisy were not all scholars, many of them were local Yangzhou families. They also came early in the morning to wait for the results to be released. It was not that someone from their own countryside exams, but to "catch" their son-in-law.
The title of the gold list and the catching of the son-in-law under the list has always been a trendy custom of the Xia Yu Dynasty.
The provincial examination is on the list of Gui, but it cannot be called the list of gold, but it is also a very decent thing for a daughter to marry a Juren. Moreover, Juren can also take the exam for the Spring Boudoir next year and rely on the Jinshi.
The spring boudoir was held in Kyoto, and it was no longer their turn to "catch" their son-in-law at the feet of the emperor.
Gu Linchuan sighed: "I thought the road was far away and he was as calm as a mountain, but I didn't expect that when I heard that Jie Yuan passed the exam, I would be so excited that I would be so excited to express my respect."
Zhou Hezhi said suddenly: "Who can really be calm when fame, wealth and wealth? If it were me, I would have fainted long ago."
After a while, Chen Sanlang, surrounded by a large group of people, came out and gave the prepared wedding money to the messenger.
The messenger weighed the heavy string, full of weight, was overjoyed, and said some festive words, then smiled and turned back to report his life.
The following scene was full of joy, so I won’t mention it.
Some people were happy and some were sad. Qin Yushu stood blankly outside the inn, looking at the end of the street, as if he was still expecting a strong horse to come, shouting:
"Good news for the provincial examination! Qin Huide, the master of Nanyang Mansion, passed the Yangzhou provincial examination..."
But he knew in his heart that this horse would never appear. (To be continued...)
