Chapter 249 Discussion on the Township Examination List
After reading the top list, Fang Yingwu carefully scanned the entire provincial examination list, and then saw two familiar names. One was Wu Chuo, who was ranked 21st, and the other was Xiang Chengxian, who was ranked 79th.
It seemed that, including himself, there were three people on the list in Chun'an County this time, which were much better than the only child in the last subject who had only his father. It is conceivable that if the situation in this subject is still not ideal, what will happen to those poor people?
Being further exploited by the family.
Among the other two people who passed the examination, Fang Yingwu was a little surprised by Wu Chuo. This Mr. Wu was an elite member of the Yunfeng Wu family, the first imperial examination family in Chun'an County. This time, like him, he won the championship for the first time at a weak age.
I passed the provincial examination.
Even if we look at the whole country, there are very few people like Wu Gongzi who can win the imperial examination in their twenties, enough to be spread as talking points. It seems that their strength is indeed outstanding. Fang Yingwu also used the left side to the extreme, plus
God had the right time, right place, and right people, and this was the opportunity we got.
As for Xiang Chengxian, being on the list is reasonable and expected, and does not surprise Fang Yingwu. Mr. Xiang has also taken the exam twice. This time, he spared no effort to prepare in all aspects, and he has Shi
Yan secretly helped him collect books and cheated. With luck, it was no surprise that he won the election.
However, after reading the list several times, I still didn’t see the name of another friend Hong Song on the list. This can only be a pity. There is nothing to say. After all, with a ratio of less than 1 in 30, the probability of winning is small.
, it is normal to miss.
Fang Yingwu squeezed out of the crowd with excitement and looked outside for his two friends who were watching the list together.
Hong Song and Xiang Chengxian both came out earlier than Fang Yingwu. At this time, one of them looked depressed and the other looked happy. When their friendship was so good, there was no need to be too pretentious, and their expressions were whatever they were feeling.
Hong Song doesn't have to force a smile and pretend not to care, being depressed is just depression; Xiang Chengxian doesn't have to deliberately suppress his joy in order to take care of Hong Song's face. Happy is happy.
Fang Yingwu stepped forward and cupped his hands to Xiang Chengxian and said: "Congratulations to Brother Xiang first." Then he said to Hong Song: "Brother Hong, there is no need to be discouraged. It's just that the time has not come yet."
Seeing Fang Yingwu, Hong Songjia was depressed. The last time he saw Fang Qing win, he failed sadly. This time when he saw Fang Yingwu win, he still failed...
However, he was depressed, but he was not jealous. Hong Song also raised his hand to express his congratulations: "I wish Brother Fang Xian a great success and win the emperor's list again next year!"
Xiang Chengxian smiled and said: "After reading the list, whether you are proud or frustrated, it is actually God's will! Let's find a place to drink!"
The three of them went to Qingyun Street together and found a restaurant. There was a huge number of customers inside, probably because of the influence of the rankings. As Xiang Chengxian said just now, whether you are frustrated or successful, you always have to find a place to get drunk.
.
If they wanted a separate Accord at this moment, it would definitely not be available. The three of them had to choose one of the few remaining seats in the lobby to sit down.
After sitting down, Hong Song said: "I have sent the boy back to pack his luggage, and I will leave to return home early tomorrow morning!"
Xiang Chengxian and Fang Yingwu were very surprised. After looking at each other, Xiang Chengxian spoke first: "Brother Hong, why are you in such a hurry? As usual, there will be a Deer Ming Banquet the day after the results are released, and Brother Fang Xian and I will both go there.
, there is no way to escape."
Fang Yingwu also advised: "If Brother Hong insists on leaving first, then at least give us a chance to see him off. It is better to leave a few days later."
Hong Song poured himself a sip of wine and sighed: "Three years and three years, I don't want to stay in this city of Hangzhou for a moment longer!"
Hong Song drank ferociously. He soon became drunk, and the normally steady man became dancing and crooked.
He suddenly stretched out his hand, holding down Xiang Chengxian with one hand and Fang Yingwu with the other, mumbling incoherently: "Among the three of us, I should be said to be the most serious in studying, and both of you are not as good as me!
Brother Xiang Xian, you are too frivolous and frivolous! Brother Fang Xian, you have too many chores and your thoughts are often elsewhere! But I didn’t expect that you all won, but I was the only one who failed. It’s just a coincidence of fate!”
Fang Yingwu understood very well. In fact, this was the most depressing place for Mr. Hong. Three friends came to take the provincial examination together. It would be fine if they all failed together, but he was the only one who failed. Even a good man cannot avoid the sullen fate of life.
Hong Song suddenly turned his head again and said to Fang Yingwu with drunken eyes: "Next year you two will go to the capital to take part in the examination. Brother, I am not qualified to accompany you, but I still have a few words to tell you.
Brother Fang.
You are a person who can be calm, steady and able to make up his mind. Although you are the youngest among the three of us, I am very confident in you. But Xiang Chengxian is still too stupid.
! It’s quite uneasy to be away from home, brother Fang, you have to take more care of me!”
Fang Yingwu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, while Xiang Chengxian's face was twisted into a twist, feeling both touched and depressed by what he said.
But the results of the provincial examination list came out, which immediately aroused heated discussion in the whole city of Hangzhou and even the whole province. It can be said that the provincial examination held every three years is almost one of the biggest events in the province, and its influence in the province is even greater than that of the comprehensive examination.
In addition to talking about their relatives, friends, and celebrities in the county, the people who talked about it the most were naturally the leader of the Five Classics who ranked highest on the list. If the person who attracted the most attention after the imperial examination in the capital was Sanding Jia, then the person who attracted the most attention after the provincial examination was
Five leaders.
In this restaurant, whether they are related or not, the only thing they talk about is not the provincial examination results.
Someone proudly said loudly: "I have seen the first two people. Li Min, who is the leader of the Yuan Dynasty, has a strong memory of extensive knowledge and is talented, while Wang Hua has a family background and has a photographic memory. Both of them can be called great talents.
To be able to occupy the top two places is truly a well-deserved one!”
"Do you know? I heard that Li Jieyuan was the grandson of Mr. Yu. When the Yu family was killed, a pregnant concubine escaped and married into the Li family..."
People in Hangzhou say that this Yu Gong can only be a famous official, Yu Qian from Qiantang. Yu Qian only had one son, but this son did not give birth to another son, so Yu Qian has no descendants. This has always been a regret for the folks.
, it is reasonable to make up various stories.
Someone next to him sneered and said, "What's the point of the top two on this list? A layman looks at the fun, an expert looks at the door. Only a layman like you can watch the low-level fun. Who doesn't know that Jieyuan is talented?
Do you have to say it? As for saying that Li Jieyuan is a descendant of Yu Gong, it is nonsense! In fact, the highlight of this list is the third place!"
The person who spoke before was laughed at in public, and he couldn't keep his face. He tried to tear up the person who was laughing at him, "If you can't tell me something, I will give up my face and argue with you!"
"
The person who was twisted was not afraid: "The two of them, Li and Wang, won the imperial examination at the age of thirty-six or seventeen. Looking to the future, I don't know when they will be able to win the Jinshi. And if they can't win the Three Tripods, what will their future be like?"
It's really limited. After all, age matters here. No matter how lucky you are in the future, you will only enter the officialdom when you are around forty years old. How much future can you have?
In contrast, the third place Fang Yingwu is actually dazzling, and anyone with a little knowledge can see that this is the real highlight!"
Everyone around him was led into deep thought, and it felt very reasonable. The man looked around and continued: "Fang Yingwu has already won the imperial examination at the age of eighteen this year. It is very rare since the imperial examination in this dynasty.
He still has enough time to push upwards further, and there's no telling how far he can go.
Don't forget that he also has a father who is in his prime but also has little potential. Fang Hanlin is only thirty-three years old and is already a Hanlin. Father and son are working together to do harm! And I also heard that Fang Yingwu's professor
Teacher Ye is Shang Xianggong, is this something ordinary people can compare to?"
The person who was the first to talk eloquently unknowingly let go of his hand. He had to admit that what the other person said was reasonable and he deserved to be laughed at. How could two old gangsters, Xie Yuan Li Min and second place Wang Hua, compare to the first place?
Three Fang Yingwu Boys High School?
It's a pity that no one in the world expected that Li Min and Wang Hua would both win the first prize in the future, and their starting points were not as high as usual.
Although it seems that the two of them entered the officialdom a little late, they both reached the level of minister and minister. It cannot be said to be a success, but it definitely cannot be called a failure. Not to mention that Wang Hua has such an outstanding son. Together with Wang Hua,
I also have a lot more legendary qualities.
The Zhejiang Provincial Examination Ranking in the 16th year of Chenghua was called the most valuable Five Classics exams in the Imperial Examinations a few years later. There were actually two top scorers and one Fang Yingwu in the same subject.
Fang Yingwu, Hong, and Xiang also stopped talking unknowingly and heard other people's comments. Hearing this, Hong Song raised his glass again: "Fill the glass for Brother Fang Xian, who has a bright future!"
