"Senior brother, you haven't encountered any difficulties, have you?"
As soon as Young Master Liu entered the Tribute Courtyard, he heard someone calling him senior brother. He was stunned for a moment and then realized that the only person who would call him senior brother in Jinling was Hu Jun.
Stopping, Liu Mingzhi looked at the sweaty Hu Jun in surprise: "Brother, what did you do? You're covered in sweat!"
Hu Jun wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve and laughed sarcastically: "I went to the inn and was a little anxious when I came back. Senior brother, you have nothing to do, right?"
Hu Jun remembered his mentor's words in the inn that he was neither sad nor happy when he heard about people's political affairs. He just let things go and had his own standards. Hu Jun was a little confused. His senior brother Liu Mingzhi regarded Qiuwei as child's play, why his mentor still let him go.
"What can happen to me? I eat deliciously and my body is in great shape. It couldn't be better!" After saying this, Liu Mingzhi even jumped in front of Hu Jun.
"Senior Brother, what I'm talking about is not whether there is anything wrong with your body, but what happened in the first session. You left on the second day of the exam. Junior Brother saw it, and I just wonder if you encountered something.
I was frightened by the difficulty in getting the question, so I left angrily."
Hu Jun covered his forehead and looked at Liu Mingzhi with an aggrieved look.
After nodding hard on Hu Jun's head several times, Liu Mingzhi said angrily: "You said what's on your mind all day long. The reason why senior brother came out the next day is because he answered the questions early.
Once you’re done, you’ll get bored and it’s not as complicated as you think.”
"So that's it. I said that senior brother is a genius who is often praised by his teachers. How could he leave the examination room angrily? They are all those long-tongued guys. There was a lot of discussion. I thought that senior brother was really..."
"Stop thinking, what are you? Didn't the old man not allow you to participate in this year's Qiu Wei? He said that the knowledge you accumulated was not enough to cope with such a scene. You wouldn't have secretly reported your name without telling the old man, right?
"
Liu Mingzhi asked this question, but it was not surprising. In the Dalong Dynasty's imperial examination, students in all prefectures and counties could register for the Qiuwei examination. Hu Jun was dissatisfied with the arrangement of the government and wanted to express his ambition and register privately.
It's not a bad idea either.
Hu Jun shook his head hastily: "Of course not. It was my mentor who specifically allowed me to attend this autumn festival. I don't know why my mentor suddenly changed his mind. But my mentor has his own ideas, so I can just listen to him."
"You are too blind. The old man has always made mistakes. Will you obey him if he asks you to commit suicide? You must first have a backbone, you know?"
Hu Jun shook his head stubbornly: "No, my mentor would not give such an order."
Liu Mingzhi slapped his forehead in despair. Hu Jun was good at everything else, but he was unbearable for being stubborn. He didn't even know that he had to leave three points of leeway when making friends.
"Okay, okay, I think the old man may not give an order for you to die, since you are his proud disciple."
Hu Jun smiled honestly again.
Looking at the student Liu Mingzhi who was already waiting for the test papers to be released, he also tugged at Hu Jun's clothes: "Don't be stunned, hurry up and prepare for the poetry test."
"Okay, okay, little brother knows."
"How's your work on the meaning of the scriptures? Did you get 70%? If you get 70%, it's enough to pass the second grade. You might be able to get on the list."
"Same as senior brother, I have finished everything, but not as fast as senior brother. I feel that it is about 80% correct and there is no problem. Senior brother is the fastest man I have ever seen."
Young Master Liu's face turned from red to purple, then from purple to black, wondering if you could still have a good chat.
"You damn faggot, you are the fastest man, and your whole family is the fastest!"
Young Master Liu salivated at the confused Hu Jun: "Senior brother, what's wrong with me?"
"Get out of here, sir. Who is your senior brother? Do I know you well? Don't get close to me." Young Master Liu rolled up his sleeves and hurried towards his examination room.
"Senior Brother Liu, last year's poetry test was about reunion. This year, I guess it has something to do with the moon. Senior brother, you might as well start drafting early to prepare one or two."
"hehe……"
Three gongs and drums sounded, the candidates entered their seats, and the second poetry imperial examination began.
Qi Run Zhao Fengshou looked at Mr. Liu who was fiddling with the feathers on the pen tip with strange eyes and was speechless for a while. Does this guy really not have any sense of urgency?
This is an imperial examination, which is held once every three years. It is not just a child's play. How can you put the dignity of the imperial examination in such a relaxed manner? Doesn't the imperial court have no face?
Liu Mingzhi waited until Qi Run and the examiners left before turning his eyes to the test paper. When he saw the questions on the test paper, he immediately took a breath of cold air.
I saw eight big characters written on the top of the test paper: "The jade plate is in the sky, think about it."
Liu Mingzhi's eyes flickered as he stared at these words. If he didn't know the personalities of several supervisory officials, he would have thought that he had leaked the matter privately.
"I hope you are really wise and foolish, and not for other reasons." Liu Mingzhi said to him.
