Lushan Ming and Yue also made a bet before, one pledged Lushan Ming, the other pledged Chen Zhongqian, and several people followed them one after another.
After Chen Zhongqian entered the top three, a bunch of people suddenly appeared under his name, all betting that he would win the first place.
After all, judging from past experience, if you can test the top three, it is very likely to advance to the first class.
Now I'm betting on Chen Zhongqian, maybe I can still make some money.
There are also people who have started a new game and are betting on the specific ranking. Naturally, some people are betting that he will win the first prize.
Because someone bet Chen Zhongda one hundred taels of silver, when the results were released, some people paid special attention to how many places he got in the exam.
I found that his ranking was pretty good, so there were people following Chen Zhongda’s name.
In this inn, Chen Zhongqian and Chen Zhongda made the focus of betting. Some of them failed in the test, and now they have placed their hope on making a fortune by betting on the right match.
Liu Zhaofei deposited another two coins to Chen Zhongda. Chen Zhongda said, "What are you going to spend this money on?"
Liu Zhaofei smiled and said, "As my brother-in-law, of course I have to support you. Besides, I believe you will definitely get this rank, so why don't you take a bet yourself."
Chen Zhongda was quite confident in himself, and felt that what Liu Zhaofei said was reasonable. It didn't matter who bet on him, he just had to test it carefully. If he bet on himself, he might be able to get some money at that time.
After the results of the general examination are announced, you have to wait for the palace examination. Generally speaking, you can't wait too long.
In the palace examination, the emperor personally took the exam and then set the ranking. In addition to answering questions, he also needed to learn the rules. Therefore, candidates who passed the examination needed to go to Gongyuan to learn the rules for meeting the emperor.
No one dares to be careless about this. After all, if you make a mistake in front of the emperor, the consequences will be very serious, and you may even be beheaded.
Some of the older ones managed to get to this point with great difficulty. They were frightened to death when they heard the rules taught by the father-in-law in the palace, and almost lost the opportunity to take the imperial examination.
By the time the palace examination time was announced, it was already the eighth day of March, and the palace examination was scheduled for March 12th.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and became nervous at the same time. Now it was really the last step, so we must perform well.
…
At the same time, the few people in Yonghe Town who applied for the exam but failed the examination have already arrived.
While they were disappointed, they did not forget to release the news that seven people from Yueshan Academy had passed the examination.
This is a big deal. Yueshan Academy is indeed very powerful, but there has never been a situation where seven people passed the joint examination at the same time.
Dean Yue himself was shocked. In his guess, it was not surprising that Chen Zhongqian and Lushan Ming would pass. The two of them were already powerful.
Liu Xun seems to be full of confidence in his backing, which has nothing to do with Yueshan Academy.
As for his unlucky son, whether he passes or not is his own business. If he is serious about it, he will pass. If he is not serious, he may not even be able to pass Qiu Wei.
The other three people surprised Dean Yue. He really didn't expect to achieve such good results this time.
Of course he was happy, but Dean Yue calmed down immediately.
After Yueshan Academy has achieved such good results, it will need to work harder in the future. If we are complacent, we will become a joke in the future.
He thought to himself that when the brat came back, he would have to praise him and not hit him all the time.
Spring Festival is not over yet, Dean Yue is still looking forward to Chen Zhongqian's results. It would be great if he can be the top pick in high school.
This is really unpredictable. Strength is only one aspect, others are also important.
But even if he is not the top pick, Chen Zhongqian's strength will definitely lead to a good ranking.
Naturally, not only Yueshan Academy was concerned about such a big matter, within two days, the news had spread throughout the streets and alleys.
Chen Zhongqian ranked third in the national examination and is expected to become the number one scholar in the new subject. Isn't this surprising enough?
Wherever she goes these days, people ask Lin Xiyi, and they call her the No. 1 Scholar. Lin Xiyi just smiles, "Of course I'm happy that Zhong Qian can win the No. 1 Scholar, but the results haven't come out yet, so he may not win. Please don't
That’s what I said.”
Compliments at this time will be ridiculed by the crowd. Some people sincerely congratulate, but some of them are yin and yang.
When they returned to the village, everyone asked Chen Zhongqian when they saw her. How could she know? So they had to walk home through the village with a professional fake smile.
Yang carried the hoe into the yard and whispered, "Mom, have you heard? It is said that Zhong Qian may have won the first prize."
Wu smiled and said, "Of course I have heard of it. If Zhong Qian is the top pick in high school, our family will be proud of it. He is a member of the Chen family."
Chen Mingyi was sitting in the upper room, and Mrs. Wu shouted to the upper room, "Old man, don't you think so? If Zhong Qian wins the first prize, we have to talk to him carefully, we can't really get along with each other.
Well, this is a family."
Mrs. Wu fell in love with her grandson again when Chen Zhongqian passed the examination. Now that she knows that he will do so well in the examination, she is even more satisfied.
Chen Mingyi was so proud that she didn't want to bow to Chen Zhongqian. She had to convince the old man, otherwise wouldn't she be pushing such a good grandson away?
"They are not part of your family, so stop thinking about these things."
Wu said, "Why are we not a family anymore? Isn't he Hongsheng's son? Hongsheng was not born to me? How can he have him without me?"
"Anyway, just keep your attitude straight. You are the elder, and you have taken the initiative to be nice to him. How can he still make a bad face?"
Mrs. Wu put down the dustpan and walked into the house. Ms. Yang hurriedly followed, "Now that he and Lin Hexi are in a good relationship, Lin Hexi's family is probably thinking about it too. If we don't get along with him, he will get along with the Lin family in the future."
Are you happy?"
Chen Mingyi snorted, "It's useless no matter how much you say."
Yang smiled and said, "Mom, don't we still have Zhongda? Zhongda also did very well in the exam. Maybe he will be sent to an official soon, and then he will be able to enjoy the blessings."
Wu nodded, "Yes, Zhongda is also good, but Zhongqian is better. It's better if both of their brothers are good. Our family's ancestral tombs have good feng shui. Both children are so good. I'm so happy."
ah."
Yang curled her lips, dissatisfied with Wu's statement. In her opinion, her son was the best. Chen Zhongqian, then why did you look down on him before? You were still hoping that he would die early so you could get your money back.
Now that Chen Zhongqian is about to make a career, his face has changed immediately, which is really embarrassing to watch.
She wished that Chen Zhongqian would ignore the old couple and let them see who was trustworthy.
Then he thought again, that's not right. If Chen Zhongqian doesn't care, then her son will have to support the family. That's not okay.
"Yes, Zhong Qian must have feelings for you two elders. When he comes back, you can come and talk to him. He will definitely reconcile. How can a family have an overnight feud?" Yang quickly said a few good words.
