Four hundred and seventeenth chapter Buddha said can not be said
The name "Luming Banquet" sounds very noble and quaint, but in fact it is a large-scale group visit after the results of the provincial examination are released.
It is usually held on the second day after the results of the provincial examination are released, and the venue is Minglun Hall of Fuxue.
Not only all successful candidates must go, but also the chief examiner, co-examiners, promotion officers, and proctors who participated in the provincial examination will all attend.
They have to worship anyway, so you can imagine how messy the scene is.
Although wine and food will be served, they will be competed by the handymen and scribes, which is called "banquet grabbing", and you won't be able to eat more than a few bites.
No matter how chaotic he was, he had to participate. At this time, the ceremony had not started yet. Qin Dewei walked around the courtyard first and could only stand with Chen Feng and Wang Zhisheng, two people from the same city.
The three of them faced each other, only smiling bitterly.
As a majestic capital city, these three people have won the imperial examination, plus the other six surrounding counties, the total number of Yingtian Mansion is only eight or nine.
In contrast, in major imperial examination offices like Suzhou, Changzhou, and Huizhou, only twenty or thirty candidates pass the examination.
Chen Feng sighed: "I heard from my seniors that although the people on the list are all friends of the same year, at this time, we Nandu natives are often teased and ridiculed."
Qin Dewei asked: "Which senior said that?"
Chen Feng said a little embarrassed: "Ah, it's Mr. Dongqiao."
Qin Dewei said disdainfully: "It turned out to be Gu Dongqiao who said it, no wonder he is so disappointing. But I, Qin Dewei, am here today, who dares to ridicule me!"
Chen Feng and Wang Zhisheng looked at each other, Qin Tongnian was worthy of being the little overlord of Jiangdong.
As soon as Qin Dewei finished his harsh words, someone came over to Qin Dewei and said, "Friend Qin! Do you still remember me?"
At this time, people of the same age have not formally bowed to each other, so they are not called brother and brother, but still treat each other as friends.
Qin Dewei looked back and saw that it was Hu Zongxian whom he had met in Jurong County. He couldn't help but reveal a kind smile on his face.
After looking through the admission list of the undergraduate provincial examination, I can see that for such a famous person in history, of course I should pay more attention to him.
Hu Zongxian was confused, what the hell is that smile of yours?
"What's your advice, friend Hu?" Qin Dewei asked proactively.
Hu Zongxian snorted coldly, "My friend Qin won the title of Spring and Autumn Classic, but I will not accept it."
Qin Dewei was speechless. If you are not convinced, go to the examiners and talk nonsense to me!
Let’s talk about the undergraduate provincial examination. A total of nine people were admitted to the Spring and Autumn Classics. With just such a small number of people, whoever can be the leader of the classics can do it, so what is there to fight for!
When it comes to which of the Five Classics a scholar chooses, it is not only influenced by the teacher, but also has a strong regional flavor. Often one kind of scripture is popular in one place.
For example, in Huizhou, the Spring and Autumn Festival is the most popular. Many Spring and Autumn Classics in South Zhili are popular in Huizhou.
Therefore, many Huizhou scholars chose to attack the Spring and Autumn Period, and so did Hu Zongxian, who shared the same scripture with Qin Dewei.
But yesterday Hu Zongxian heard a rumor. It was said that he was originally the leader of the Spring and Autumn Period. Then when filling in the results, the examiner changed him to Qin Dewei.
So Hu Zongxian couldn't bear it today, so he came over to challenge Qin Dewei.
Qin Dewei responded: "There is no practical use in saying that you have been appointed as the chief but not as the chief! Why bother with this!"
Hu Zongxian said reluctantly: "But I also heard that you, Qin Dewei, once uttered the truth after drinking, saying that a blow would be as easy as the palm of your hand!"
Qin Dewei said helplessly: "I made a joke after drinking too much, do you take it seriously?"
He still had some impression that when he was drinking with some Suzhou scholars, they mentioned Hu Zongxian in casual conversation.
Hu Zongxian is famous for living in the Qinhuai Old Courtyard for a month and is often used as a source of conversation.
But Qin Dewei made such a boast at that time, and did not want it to reach the ears of Hu Zongxian himself.
Hu Zongxian asked: "Could it be that you are making trouble on the Jingkui issue when you say you are attacking?"
Qin Dewei said sternly: "First of all, regarding the Jingkui issue, I am not causing trouble. It is all arranged by the teachers. It is useless for you to question me!
Secondly, what I say below about attacking you is definitely not a Jingkui issue."
Hu Zongxian was even more dissatisfied and said: "Where do you get your confidence? If you have the ability to attack me, show it now! Is it possible that poetry is your best thing?"
"You can't show it in broad daylight." Qin Dewei said inscrutably: "I heard that there is a point in your life where you are most conceited. I can easily hit you on your conceited place, so why rely on poetry!"
Wucao! Hu Zongxian shouted in shock: "This is impossible! How can you be better than me? Do you, Qin Dewei, really know where I am conceited?"
Qin Dewei smiled contemptuously and said, "Do you have the guts to follow me to the toilet?"
Immediately, several Huizhou scholars came around and said to Qin Dewei: "Don't bully Qin Dewei just because he is a local!"
In a place like a school, if you drag people to the toilet, what else can you do besides bullying? When you get to the toilet, maybe a few guards will pop up, right?
Qin Dewei replied confidently: "Don't worry, gentlemen, Hu Zongxian and I are going to fight each other, so what's the point of bullying?"
When the Huizhou scholars heard about the "one-on-one challenge", they looked at the tall Hu Zongxian and Qin Dewei who was not yet fully developed, and then let him go silently.
So Qin Dewei and Hu Zongxian went to the toilet together. After a while, they both came out, but with different expressions.
Qin Dewei was arrogant and arrogant, while Hu Zongxian was dejected and depressed, like a defeated rooster.
I also heard Qin Dewei's lesson: "You must know that there are people outside the world, and there are mountains outside the mountains. Now do you understand this truth?"
Although Hu Zongxian did not speak, he cupped his hands to show that he had been taught.
Everyone was astonished when they saw this scene. In such a short time, what on earth were these two people competing in the toilet?
How could it be so quickly differentiated into high and low, large and long?
Hu Zongxian was also known as a high-spirited person among Huizhou scholars. How come he was dealt with by Qin Dewei in just a short time?
Chen Feng and Wang Zhisheng only thought that Qin Tongnian was amazing and could indeed fight much better than Mr. Gu Dongqiao.
The two people quickly asked Qin Dewei: "What on earth did you use to defeat Hu Zongxian?"
Qin Dewei just smiled and said nothing. The Buddha said it cannot be said, it cannot be said.
The Hui people over there were also asking Hu Zongxian: "What happened?"
Hu Zongxian sighed sadly: "An instrument is not as good as a human being! The Master said, "Ru is like this, Ru is like this!"
He was proud that Lao Ai was still alive, and he didn't want to lose to Qin Dewei today! The leader of the Spring and Autumn Period, he was convinced of his defeat!
Before others could test Qin Dewei again, the ceremony began.
Qin Dewei was not wrong. This deer-crowing banquet was indeed a chaotic occasion! More than a hundred candidates came and paid homage to the officials participating in the provincial examination. How could it not be chaotic?
He originally wanted to find an opportunity to talk to Academician Zhang alone and ask about Chunqiu Jingkui, but it seemed that it was unlikely today.
Fortunately, tomorrow and the next two days are the time for the new imperial examiners to pay private visits to the examiner and the examiner.
Presumably, Bachelor Zhang will leave enough time for himself to talk, and then he can ask about the process in detail.
