There was a dense crowd of people who were family members or servants waiting for the candidates to appear. As soon as Ye Zhenzhen walked in, she was drowned in the sea of people. She couldn't find Ye Dayong.
With her small body, she couldn't squeeze in, so she had to sit and wait in a teahouse on the roadside. The sun was rising, and finally some candidates came out of the ceremony room. The crowd rushed up, and noisy inquiries came one after another, just like a vegetable market.
Suddenly someone shouted, "Get out of here, get out of here, someone fainted."
The government officials stationed outside the ceremony room hurriedly evacuated the crowd, and only then did Ye Zhenzhen see the fainted examinee. This person was young, but his body was thin and thin. His face was as white as paper, and he looked like his body had been hollowed out by the examination.
, can’t help but make people feel sad.
Throughout the ages, examinations have been a life-threatening curse.
The fainted candidate was quickly taken away by his family, and the crowd dispersed in an orderly manner. Ye Zhenzhen finally saw Brother Zhen's figure.
Among a group of candidates who were either excited, annoyed or dejected, Cui Weizhen, who was calm and composed, was particularly different. He was like a general drawing his sword into its sheath and leaving it without a trace. He had the confidence and indifference of a master.
Ye Zhenzhen was confident for no reason that he must do well in the exam.
"Brother Zhen, I'm here."
Her voice was soon drowned in the noise of people. Miraculously, Cui Weizhen felt something and suddenly looked at her, and his calm face finally showed surprise.
He walked through the crowd towards her, "Why are you here?"
"I'll pick you up."
Ye Zhenzhen smiled and raised her eyebrows, quickly put his book box away, took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said, "There are too many people now, it's inconvenient to go out. Brother Zhen, please have some refreshments first."
Take a break."
"good."
Cui Weizhen ate a few snacks slowly and took a sip of tea. There was a loose and lazy look on his brows, and he began to ask about the situation at home.
Ye Zhenzhen explained in detail. When she mentioned that she had earned another hundred taels, her eyebrows were raised and her black eyes were bright. She looked at Cui Weizhen eagerly, as if asking for praise.
Cui Weizhen's hand felt a little itchy, and he rubbed her head uncontrollably. He quickly froze again, calmly retracted his hand, and praised in a steady tone, "Not bad."
The residual warmth from Brother Zhen's touch seems to still remain on the head. The smoky heat spreads from the top of the head, and finally steams up on the face, leaving a cloud of red clouds.
Her heart seemed to be boiling, bubbling, crackling, and bursting into waves of joy. Her whole body swayed with it, and a big smile broke out on her face.
She looked a little silly, which made Cui Weizhen raise the corners of her lips and reveal a subtle smile.
The sweet atmosphere was brewing quietly, but was broken by a burst of exclamations and screams.
The candidates outside the ceremony room have almost left, but there are also groups of classmates and friends hanging around, exchanging information with each other. A group of them suddenly got into an argument and started fighting each other for some reason.
Among this group of people was Ye Shiming.
Ye Dayong anxiously blocked the fight and was beaten several times. Ye Zhenzhen immediately went over and pulled him out, "Dad, why did the fight suddenly start?"
They were all a group of weak scholars, and the beatings were not severe. Ye Dayong did not feel any pain. He looked anxiously at the group of people who were still beating him, "It was your second uncle's friend who did it first, saying that he failed to pass the test.
I defrauded him of his money, and then they started fighting."
It turns out that this is what happened.
There were seven scholars fighting in total. They had no body and no knowledge of martial arts. They were pecking at each other. You pushed me and I kicked you. They were all disheveled and their hair was messy.
, without the manners of a scholar.
The stationed government officials must have never seen such a scene before, and now they came to their senses and tried to start a fight. One in each hand, the few scholars were like little chickens who had no power to resist, and they were immediately lifted away.
"The ceremony room is an important place. No trouble is allowed. Violators will be imprisoned."
This group of hot-headed scholars finally calmed down, but their eyes still continued to launch attacks at each other unwilling to be outdone. It was just a matter of adding post-production sound effects to them.
Ye Shiming was beaten into panda eyes, and he was so embarrassed that he couldn't look at it. Ye Zhenzhen gloated about his misfortune and did not laugh out loud for the sake of Ye Dayong.
But he didn't realize it yet, so he yelled viciously, "Dayong, go call the third brother and beat these idiots to death."
Oh, now I remember his bastard brother who got into fights.
Ye Dayong is an honest man, and he will never cause trouble if he can calm things down. "Second brother, please calm down. There are government officials here. If you anger the academic master and remove your honor, you will lose more than you gain."
Tong Sheng was not considered a man of merit. Ye Dayong meant that he was worried that his troubles would spread to the ears of the academic administration and he would be demoted.
It's okay that he didn't mention it, but when he mentioned it like this, Ye Shiming's face became even more ugly.
He rolled his sleeves and opened Ye Dayong's door, and said angrily, "What do you know! You are just yelling here."
Ye Zhenzhen supported Ye Dayong who was stumbling back, "Second uncle is so angry. It has nothing to do with my dad if you believe in the so-called question paper and didn't review it properly. You will also get into trouble and get angry at my dad.
.”
Ye Shiming's eyes were almost angry, which further confirmed that Ye Zhenzhen's guess was correct.
He had received a big impact and was about to hit Ye Zhenzhen with red eyes. Cui Weizhen was right next to him. He grabbed his wrist and pushed it skillfully. Ye Shiming immediately stepped back uncontrollably and fell.
All fours in the air.
Ye Shiming's friends immediately helped him up, "Who are you? If you dare to hit my brother, you will die, right?"
A dignified scholar, his words are flowing and full of gangsterism.
Cui Weizhen's expression was indifferent, but there was a sarcastic smile on his lips, "How are you going to take my life?"
The group of people were shocked by his aura. It took them a while to react. The aura was a few levels weaker for no reason. "You, why are you so arrogant! Let me tell you, Linxi County is my Shao's territory. Today
If you offend me, I will find a hundred ways to make it difficult for you to survive!"
"What a loud tone!"
Suddenly, a loud shout rang out, and a group of people walked out of the ceremony room. The middle-aged man at the head looked angry and said, "Master Li, I don't know that the academic style in Linxi County is so corrupt. There are students who openly bully and retaliate. Such...
How can a despicable villain be of great use!"
County Magistrate Li Xuandao broke out in a cold sweat, nodded and bowed, and kept apologizing, "This is a low-ranking official who is not strict in his administration. Please forgive me, Mr. Wang."
To be able to make the county so fearful and fearful, this person's identity is self-evident.
"Study, Master Xuezheng!"
Shao, who threatened Cui Weizhen with harsh words, immediately collapsed to the ground in fear, his eyes straightened, and then several indecent sounds were heard, and a disgusting stench came. This smell...
