"Candidates who are successful in the examination will follow me to the Yamen to collect the stamps."
After half a while.
The Education Department official standing at the door shouted loudly.
The sound was heard above the noise of the crowd.
The postal talisman was a convenience provided by the Chongqing imperial court to the candidates who passed the examination. Almost no one who succeeded in the examination would give up and go to Kyoto to try their luck in the examination.
Some students' families couldn't even afford the money, so the Chongqing court had a system to provide them with stamps.
The postal talisman serves as a voucher. These Juren students can use the postal talisman to rest, have food and lodging, and borrow carriages and horses at the official inns they pass along the way.
Of course, in addition to official subsidies, the clans of these students usually also provide them with sufficient financial support.
After all, whoever wins the exam will be honored by the whole clan. And the students who win the exam will definitely become powerful figures in the clan in the future.
Take Lu Fang for example, if he goes back to Lujia Village now, the villagers in Lujia Village will know that he has won a lot of money. No matter how poor they are, they will give him money.
A moment of silence.
Immediately afterwards, the crowd became even more chaotic.
Lu Fang looked at the various expressions of the crowd, and then looked at Zhao Xiuyun. At this moment, no one cared about comforting the students who failed to win. Those who won the election hurriedly walked to the government office.
Lu Fang followed Zhao Xiuyun into the government office.
Go to the entrance hall of the Education Department and get your own stamp and identity certificate.
This is the way to go to Beijing to take the exam.
Coming out of it, Zhao Xiuyun seemed to be still dreaming.
After a long while, he suddenly said to Lu Fang: "I wonder when Mr. Lu plans to leave for Kyoto?"
He obviously planned to go to Kyoto with Lu Fang.
This is also a common thing among candidates, and there are even situations where students from more than half of the county go together.
In the Tanzhou Township Examination, they will be divided into students from each county, with clear distinctions. In the Jingnan County Examination, when they introduce themselves, they will often refer to themselves as students from a certain state.
When they arrived in Kyoto, they also had the same name.
That is the student from Jingnan County.
This is the friendship of classmates.
Even the old scholar who was already in his early forties and had never had any dealings with Lu Fang showed emotion when he heard Zhao Xiujun's words.
His family background is very ordinary, even shabby. It would obviously be the best thing if he could travel with Lu Fang.
It's a pity that Lu Fang let them down.
He chuckled and said: "Before going to Kyoto, I have to accompany my brother to Tongchuan for his appointment. Probably, I won't be able to get to Kyoto until close to the examination."
"this……"
Zhao Xiujun was stunned for a moment and said: "Actually, Brother Lu should put the general examination in the first place. In my opinion, it's not too late to go to Tongchuan after the general examination is over. But don't delay the general examination because of the long journey.
Low energy."
He was really thinking about Lu Fang.
"It doesn't matter."
Lu Fang just shook his head and said.
Then he held his hands to the two of them and said, "When I get to Kyoto, I'll treat you two to drinks."
After that, he walked towards the backyard of the government office.
Zhao Xiuyun and the old student watched him leave, then looked at each other, both speechless.
In fact, Lu Fang did not look down on their thoughts, but in their hearts, they may not necessarily think so.
At this time, Lu Fang was actually much more glamorous than them.
Back to the backyard.
Lu Liang and Chen Youxi were both sitting in the courtyard.
In fact, they planned to accompany Lu Fang to watch the announcement of the results, but they were stopped by Lu Fang. He said that even if they won a Jie Yuan, it would just be fun.
The path he and Lu Liang were going to take meant that no matter how much fame he had, it would be of little use. Anyway, it was impossible for him to be an official in the Chongqing court.
However, seeing Lu Fang come in, Chen Youxi couldn't help but ask: "How?"
It's really something that's ingrained in your bones.
Even if they knew that the imperial examination was of little significance to Lu Fang, she and Lu Liang still wanted to know whether Lu Fang passed the exam.
Lu Fang chuckled lightly, "With your husband and my talent, I can just lift people, isn't it easy to catch them?"
"Hit?"
Chen Youxi's eyes brightened slightly, but she was still happy.
Lu Liang asked with a smile: "Looking at your proud look, could it be that you want to get Jieyuan?"
Lu Fang deliberately pretended to be stunned, "How do you know?"
As a result, Lu Liang was truly stunned.
He didn't dare to think that Lu Fang could actually win Jingnan County's Jieyuan.
On this day, as the names on the big list gradually spread, the courtyard where Lu Liang was located gradually became lively.
First, Wang Sidong and Xu Zhen arrived one after another and expressed congratulations to Lu Fang.
Then even Ou Hongsheng and his gang came over one after another.
During this process, Lu Fang's admiration value also skyrocketed. It was countless times faster than usual.
Jingnan County Jie Yu Jie Yuan.
This time he became famous because he made a fortune.
And this gain that he had never thought of before made Lu Fang suddenly think, if he can win the top prize, how will his worship value skyrocket?
It's night.
Prince Rong's Mansion.
Inside the palace where King Rong Liang Shi lived.
Liang Siqi, Liang Dong, brother and sister, and Liang Shi were sitting in the pavilion of the artificial lake.
It does have a rare sense of family atmosphere.
Liang Dong and Liang Shi were both martial arts masters, wearing only thin robes. Liang Siqi was wrapped in fur, and her pretty face was still a little pale.
Her cold had gotten better in the past few days, but after so many days, it naturally took a toll on her.
"Father, I plan to go to Kyoto in a while."
There was silence at first, and then Liang Siqi suddenly said.
Liang Dong had already told her that Lu Fang was going to Kyoto at the end of the month. She also knew about Lu Fang's high school education.
And now, she already has the answer in her heart.
Go to Kyoto!
Ever since she was a child, she has never had such courage to do such ridiculous things.
But this time, she is going crazy for the only man she has fallen in love with in her life.
She was just a little girl, and she couldn't care about all the troubles. She only knew that if she didn't stay by Lu Fang's side, she would never be happy in this life.
When Liang Shi heard this, something cold flashed through his eyes.
Answering the test list, he, the honored king, naturally knows the result.
His daughter had planned to go to Kyoto at this juncture, as she would not go either early or late. This undoubtedly made him realize something.
Liang Shi lowered his narrow eyes slightly and said: "Do you still have hope that he can win the first prize and let the emperor take his life back?"
Liang Siqi looked directly at him and said nothing.
Some words, even if they were used as excuses, had no meaning, especially in front of people like Liang Shi. So she did not intend to defend herself.
"I once told you that even if he becomes the prime minister of the dynasty, I will not allow you to marry him."
Liang Dong's tone was a bit colder.
"Why?"
Liang Siqi asked back equally coldly.
At this moment, the expressions of father and daughter were so similar.
In fact, their personalities are quite similar. Compared to Liang Dong, Liang Siqi has more of Liang Dong's charm in personality and demeanor.
