Two days later, a notice was suddenly posted in front of the Yingtianfu Yamen.
In view of the recent discussions, the governor will not participate in this government examination in order to avoid suspicion. After looking through the names of the government departments, he was recommended as the highest ranked Jinshi, and he was recommended as the chief examiner of this year's government examination.
Most people can see that Mr. Fu Yinjiang used retreat to advance and defused the public opinion offensive of the primary school students.
You, a primary school student, are writing poems and singing lyrics, making trouble and complaining about unfair government examinations. Now that the governor has simply quit, what else can you say?
When the news reached Qin's house in Qingxi, Qin Dewei was sharpening his gun (review) before the battle, and the female teacher Xu Miaoxuan was stunned for a moment, then silently started to pack up (books).
Qin Dewei asked curiously: "What are you doing?"
Xu Miaoxuan looked at Qin Dewei with pity and sighed: "I'm sure I won't pass the government examination. Why are you reviewing these lessons? Just relax for a few days."
Qin Dewei asked again: "Why do you think so? Isn't it a good thing that the Fu Yin who has a quarrel with me has withdrawn from the imperial examination?"
Xu Miaoxuan replied: "Isn't this obvious? If the governor himself is taking the exam, he may be worried about the overall situation of the provincial exam, and you may still have some hope.
But if the examiner changes someone, you will definitely not be able to pass. No matter how the person is changed, the new examiner must be someone whom the governor can trust. He will have no scruples about you at all. Why not depose you to please the governor!
And it’s better for you to make trouble again, because you’ve already made trouble once. If you make trouble again, who will listen to you? You can’t have every examiner treat you unfairly, right? And it’s useless for you to make trouble with the new examiner and waver. I can’t get the governor."
Qin Dewei was stunned when he heard this, and his expression gradually dimmed.
Xu Miaoxuan felt that he was a little pitiful, so she stepped forward and comforted him: "This government examination is not just once, but is held twice every three years. You are not old, and you have gradually accumulated knowledge. When the governor changes people, you will naturally I can get through it.”
Qin Dewei raised his head, forced a smile and said: "Actually, my efforts this time are not in vain, at least I can save your brother, I guess Xu Miaojing should be able to pass.
After all, I once told Jiang Cunyi in front of many people that I would apologize to him for the sake of loyalty. And Jiang Cunyi definitely didn't want to be associated with the reputation of persecuting loyalty.
He must also be worried that after I fail the exam, he will use this matter as an excuse to continue to stir up public opinion to retaliate against him, but will let my brother go instead."
Xu Miaoxuan suddenly felt inexplicably moved, "Did you feel that there was not much hope from the beginning?"
Qin Dewei sighed and said: "Yes, after all, he is the third-rank Jing Zhaoyin, a very noble and powerful minister. He has many ways to deal with my public opinion. But my ability is really limited. I am just hitting the stone with an egg, and I am doing the Jingwei reclamation. It’s the story of Foolish Old Man who moved mountains.”
Xu Miaoxuan felt a kind of warmth: "Then you still"
"Isn't it all for our younger brother?" Qin Dewei subconsciously lowered his gaze and said in a pretentious manner: "Children who cry are fed by milk. If we don't give in, how will they know how powerful we are?
Once you realize my ability to cause trouble, you will definitely have some scruples and not dare to embarrass your brother."
Xu Miaoxuan became more and more moved. She always felt that she should do something, and said softly: "If you really feel uncomfortable in your heart, you can say it. Don't hold it in."
Qin Dewei took the opportunity to plead: "If I feel uncomfortable and spend the night relaxing outside, please don't tell my mother, okay?"
"That's not possible." Xu Miaoxuan refused to agree, and added: "If you are really uncomfortable, I will accompany you in the evening. You can also have some wine. I can also play the piano and other things."
Qin Dewei shook his head and said, "If these are not enough, then Wang Lianqing is willing to let me hug her and let me lie on her lap and take a nap."
Is this all you can do at your age? Xu Miaoxuan's face turned red, and she gritted her teeth and said: "After all, the results of the prefectural exam have not come out yet. Let's wait until the end of the prefectural exam. As long as it can reduce your discomfort, I promise you once
!”
Thinking of the prospect of failing to pass the civil examination, Qin Dewei covered his face in pain and said with difficulty: "Okay, you are not allowed to cheat after the civil examination. After all, I have worked so hard for your brother, and even I have to pay for it."
Okay, can you make it up to me a little more?"
Speaking of her younger brother, Xu Miaoxuan gently stroked Qin Dewei's head and said from the bottom of her heart: "Thank you so much, brother Qin. Even I know how good you are to us."
At this point, Qin Dewei didn't want to face outsiders, so he stayed at home and didn't even go to Wang Lianqing's place.
At the end of the month, the government exams will begin.
Speaking of the process of the government examination, it is indeed lackluster. Except for the examiners and deacons, which are different from the county examination, the other processes are almost exactly the same.
The type of test questions is the same as that of the county test. There are two cut-and-answer questions from the Four Books. Candidates can submit the paper to the examiner when the time is up after completing the two articles.
In the afternoon, when the door was opened for the first time, Qin Dewei went up to hand in the paper.
Officer He, who was presiding over the examination, sat on the examination table, held down Qin Dewei's paper, and shouted with a bit of joking: "Little boy named Qin, please wait!"
It's not like he didn't know each other, Qin Dewei turned around blankly, cupped his hands casually and said: "I say Mr. Manager, if you want to be deposed, please feel free to do so, or don't you want to humiliate me separately?"
There was an uproar around the other candidates who had submitted their papers. This urban legend of a primary school student was so awesome that he actually started to fight the examiner in the examination room!
"How dare you!" He Tuiguan slapped the table and yelled: "How dare you despise Shangguan and question my public conscience?"
Qin Dewei is also a dead pig and is not afraid of being scalded by boiling water. He said with a thorn: "Anyway, everyone knows that I will definitely not pass the exam. Who has a public heart and what does it have to do with me?"
Official He Tui said again: "The test paper has not yet been judged. Who dares to say that you have failed? It's just that I heard that you rely on your talent and have nothing left to do."
It's okay if you pass the government examination, but if you fail, you will be unconvinced, complain a lot, and slander the official's reputation!
Therefore, I am here to measure the talent you are proud of, and to convince you, do you dare to say a few words?"
When it comes to the reputation of a talented scholar, how can Qin Dewei not dare to fight? He said proudly: "It's just a small skill, why don't you dare?"
He Tuiguan glanced at Qin Dewei a few times and made a very mocking sentence: "Children can always write."
It seemed simple, but Qin Dewei thought hard.
But there was a candidate next to him who felt that he had the opportunity to perform, so he jumped in and said: "I'm Ma Jun in Jurong County! I already have the next sentence, which is: Elders give me more advice!"
But Tuiguan He ignored him and only stared at Qin Dewei.
Qin Dewei thought for a moment before saying the next sentence: "The quiet man always walks calmly."
Ma Jun laughed loudly, pointed at Qin Dewei and said: "I really didn't expect that Qin Dewei, a primary school student in Nanjing City, is just like this! The couplets are neither fast nor neat. Isn't it too worthy of the name?"
Qin Dewei looked at Ma Jun in surprise. Could it be that he was so famous now that someone actually wanted to step on him to become famous?
It's really embarrassing. How long has it been since I went all over the streets to court Mr. Wang Fengyuan?
However, He Tuiguan still ignored Ma Jun and said to Qin Dewei: "In the last sentence, try chanting the Qingyu Case!"
It was Ma Jun who took the lead again and said, "I can borrow the moonlight!"
Qin Dewei was still slower than Ma Jun. He thought for a while before replying: "It's like ascending the golden platform!"
Ma Jun was immediately overjoyed, "Why are you so slow, little brother Qin? The sentences are too vulgar! I have heard about your reputation since I first came to Nanjing to take the exam in Jurong, but what I saw today really doesn't match up."
Qin Dewei rolled his eyes and ignored Ma Jun. If he ignored him, he would lose!
He Tuiguan also ignored Ma Jun and made a couplet to Qin Dewei: "Jinglun is a new language!"
When Ma Jun saw that others were ignoring him, he felt extremely dissatisfied. The people who stepped on his horse were city people looking down on people from other counties! What's so great about the people in the imperial capital!
This elementary school student who boasts of being in the sky and the earth has nothing more than this real talent! What kind of bullshit reputation is this? It’s all hype!
These city people dare to ignore themselves, then use their true talents and knowledge to smash the faces of these people who only know how to exaggerate and seek fame!
So Ma Jun immediately jumped in and quickly added the next sentence: "Read the collection as usual!"
Qin Dewei was much slower, and then hesitantly replied: "The Luan and the Phoenix are originally high-flying!"
Ma Jun then sneered and said: "Primary schoolboy? You are so slow in writing, I don't know how you can continue to express the couplets!"
Qin Dewei waved his hand impatiently and cursed directly: "Where are you idiot? Don't cause trouble here, get out of here!"
Ma Jun shouted angrily: "I have never seen such a shameless person!"
Then he shouted to the other candidates around him: "How dare you invite you to comment! This Qin Dewei is not as good as others, so he starts to insult others. It is really insulting to the gentlemen! Could it be that all the so-called talented people in Nanjing are such idiots?"
There are eight counties in Yingtian Prefecture. After all, the majority of people who come to take the examination are from counties outside Nanjing. Immediately, some candidates from other counties who didn't know the truth started to boo.
Qin Dewei had no choice but to reprimand Ma Jun: "Shut up! Didn't you hear that the last sentence looks simple, but it's actually a poem by Du Gongbu?
I have to try my best to find some matching verses from previous generations, but what the hell are those lines of yours?"
The booing suddenly stopped. Qin Dewei glanced at it a few times and said contemptuously: "I am too lazy to pay attention to idiots, so I must tell you the truth myself? Have you not read any books except the Four Books?"
Ma Jun was stunned for a moment and felt a rumble in his head, like thunder!
Qin Dewei looked up at the sky. It was really thundering, and the clouds gradually covered the sun. Now he had to leave quickly to avoid getting caught in the rain.
The examiner, Tuiguan He, suddenly said another sentence: "Yin and Yang, wind and rain, dim light, accept it with restraint."
Qin Dewei said to Ma Jun in a friendly manner: "You come first? Friendly reminder, the above sentence is quoted from Jing Yi."
Ma Jun thought for a while and shed bitter tears.
Qin Dewei laughed and said: "Dream exposure film, this is how you look at it!" Then he quickly left the examination room.
Two days later, the government examination results were released, and the head of the case was Qin Dewei from Jiangning County.
There seemed to be an explosion in the government office. Mr. Jiang went crazy and rushed directly into the office of the official, but there was no trace of the official.
A scribe reported: "Master He's term of office was about to expire. After sealing up his official affairs, he left office early and went north to the capital to discuss matters."
On the Yangtze River, in a small boat, He Tuiguan sat in the cabin, touching the letter in his arms, full of hope for his future.
As the Yangtze River rolls eastward, so many things in ancient and modern times are all made up of jokes!
