Lu Fang and Zhao Xiuyun were walking among the crowd, and they were not eye-catching. Lu Fang looked at the candidates with different expressions around him and sighed in his heart, this is the sign of all life.
"Brother Mo Shan!"
Unintentionally, I saw Li Moshan in the crowd.
He called out.
Among the people in Jingnan County, the halo of Liang Dong, Xue Liangce, Yu Qubing and others was so dazzling that Li Moshan and the rest did not show their talents.
At least not in front of Lu Fang, he seemed quite low-key.
In fact, Li Moshan's family background is definitely not bad, and he is also among the top in Jingnan County.
His father is also a prominent figure in Jingnan County.
Listening to Lu Fang's shouts, Li Moshan, who was a little tired, turned around with a little joy in his eyes, "Brother Fang!"
They were close friends when they were in Jingnan County. Now when they go to Kyoto, it feels a bit like meeting an old friend in a foreign land.
Then Li Moshan walked quickly towards Lu Fang against the flow of people.
After sweeping his eyes across Zhao Xiuyun's face, he asked: "How did you do in the exam?"
“Not too bad!”
Lu Fang said: "What about you?"
Li Moshan sighed and shook his head, "Probably there is no hope of becoming a Jinshi."
He is also an elite at Lushan College, but Jingnan County is not ranked high in the imperial examination among the counties in Dayu. Therefore, whether he can win the Jinshi depends on luck.
Seeing him like this, Lu Fang stopped continuing the topic and asked, "Where do you all live?"
In this era, communication is too inconvenient.
In the county town, you can still have people send letters and so on. In some villages and towns, pure transportation is basically by walking, and communication is basically by shouting.
Lu Fang guessed that Li Moshan was with Xue Liangce and the others.
Sure enough, Li Moshan immediately replied: "Brother Xue and I are staying at the Denggin Inn in the south of the city."
He looked inside the Gongyuan again, then pointed to a big tree not far away, and said: "We agreed to wait outside after the exam, and we will go back to the inn together later. They should be out soon."
Lu Fang looked at Zhao Xiuyun.
Zhao Xiuyun also said: "Brother Yang and I also made an appointment to wait outside the Gongyuan."
But he was looking in another direction.
Lu Fang felt a bit dumbfounded, feeling that he was a loner.
Then he said to Zhao Xiuyun: "Brother Zhao, go and meet Brother Yang and the others first. I will talk to Brother Mo Shan and the others."
He had no intention of bringing Zhao Xiuyun into Li Moshan's circle. After all, they were two completely different circles.
"good."
Zhao Xiuyun didn't know what he was thinking, so he agreed readily, bowed to Li Moshan and walked over there.
Li Moshan returned the favor and led Lu Fang towards the shade of the tree over there.
From beginning to end, he never asked Zhao Xiuyun his identity.
Under the shade of the tree, Lu Fang only asked again: "When do you plan to return to Tanzhou?"
Although Li Moshan said that he did not do well in the exam, he did not intend to comfort Li Moshan because there was no need.
With Li Moshan's family background, even if he doesn't get Jinshi, his future prospects will probably not be that bad. At least, he can have a prosperous life in Jingnan County.
People like them, who have been ahead of most people from the moment they were born, really don't need sympathy.
Li Moshan replied: "Let's see if there is a chance to take part in the palace examination. If you fail to become a Gongsheng student, you should go back after the results are released."
Those who pass the examination will be considered Gongsheng students. Those who rank first in the examination will be awarded "Huiyuan".
Li Moshan said he did not do well in the exam, but he was obviously still looking forward to passing the exam.
"And you?"
Then he asked Lu Fang again.
Lu Fang said: "I'm about the same. But if I want to go back, I'm going back to Tongchuan Mansion."
Li Moshan shook his head and smiled, sighing, "From now on, we brothers will be from all over the world, and it will be difficult for us to meet each other."
Lu Fang felt as if he was going through high school and graduating from college again.
In this era, people like him and Li Moshan will go their separate ways from now on. It is indeed not easy to meet again.
"Brother Fang!"
"Moshan!"
"Brother Xue!"
"..."
After a while, Xue Liangce and others came out of the examination room. They found Lu Fang under the shade of a tree. Li Moshan and the others were quite enthusiastic when they saw Lu Fang.
Then he asked Lu Fang where he would stay.
Lu Fang said it was at Yu Yuanwei's house.
Even they couldn't help but look envious.
Their families are all very influential in Jingnan County, and they are not without connections in Kyoto. But obviously, they are not old enough to live in their houses.
Lu Fang was able to become a disciple of Yu Yuanwei. His luck was indeed the envy of countless Dayu scholars.
Now let’s talk about exams.
Even Xue Liangce, the most promising candidate among his peers, showed no confidence at all. No one in their group was that evil.
Of course, it does not rule out humility.
Of course, Lu Fang wouldn't say that he felt he was 100% sure, he just said that he should be okay.
This alone made Xue Liangce and others extremely envious.
How could they not understand Lu Fang's character?
This is a guy who pretends to be a pig and eats the tiger.
He all said that it should be okay, and he estimated that he would be right in the tenth or ninth place.
It is inevitable that one should think more highly of Lu Fang.
Although Lu Fang's current foundation is still slightly different from theirs, if he succeeds, and with Lu Fang's character and mind, they all feel that it will only be a matter of time for the Lu brothers to shine in Dayu. And wait until that day.
, their achievements are by no means limited by the mere Jingnan County.
A new star is rising.
Just because the trial had just ended, everyone except Lu Fang was a little tired, so they didn't say much here.
It was agreed that after two days of rest, they would go to Yu Yuanwei's mansion to invite Lu Fang out for a banquet, and then Xue Liangce, Li Moshan and others would leave.
Although they will part ways in the future, they will stay in Kyoto for at least more than a month. During this time, they will naturally get closer and closer.
Not for anything else, because they all come from Jingnan County.
Among the out-of-town candidates who came to Kyoto to take the exam, who didn’t stick together?
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes.
Being in a group is about cultivating relationships, and it also reduces the feeling of loneliness that comes with wandering in other places.
Furthermore, it is also to avoid being bullied by others.
With so many students from other places traveling to Beijing to take exams, there have been many conflicts between candidates in previous years. And these conflicts will eventually turn into conflicts with strong regional identity.
Those students who don't even have good connections in their hometowns often end up getting into trouble with others when they get into trouble.
