Summoning the world to be one

Chapter 450
Chapter 449: Release the List
There is still half an hour before noon, but the Yanlai Building is already buzzing with people. All the students are waiting for the announcement of the results with anxiety, and they all dream of being able to win the list and enter and exit the court. After all, who I don't want to take the exam again, because this is the first imperial examination, so there is no county exam or road exam, and I will go directly to the Beijing exam. If I fail this time, I will have to come back three years later, but who can guarantee that three years After that, can you walk into Wancheng again?

Moreover, because it is the first imperial examination in Deng State, the gold content is very different. In addition, the eight counties in the south are in urgent need of a large number of officials, so as long as they can get on the list, the top ones are at least the magistrate of a county, and the next ones They all belong to the prefect's mansion or the county government officials, and the starting point is already very high. When there are more and more Jinshi in the future, there will be no such opportunities again.

"Brother Cheng, aren't you nervous?" Jiang Liang, the son of Jiang Wan, said to Cheng Xu in the box of Yanlai Building. All the students are very nervous now, but Cheng Xu sitting in front of him is very calm.

"Uncle, don't do this, just call your nephew by his name. You don't dare to call him brother Cheng!" Cheng Xu hurriedly said when Jiang Liang called him brother Cheng, but his face was very embarrassing, but he couldn't help it. Cheng Yu, Jiang Liang’s grandfather, and Jiang Wan, Jiang Liang’s father, were friends in the same generation. Although Jiang Liang was younger than him, he was his uncle in terms of seniority. This was not the first time Cheng Xu felt this embarrassment. Because in the entire court, his grandfather Cheng Yu was the oldest, and there were many people who could discuss friendship with Cheng Yu's peers, such as Jiang Wan, Chang Yuchun, Yang Yanzhao, who were also the ministers of Deng Shengqian's residence Conglong, and Yue Fei, Among them, Su Hong, Zhang Bin, Cui Hao and others, except for Yue Fei and Su Hong, the others are not a few years older than his father, but in terms of seniority, they are Cheng Xu's grandparents.

"Haha, why is Brother Cheng doing this? My parents have their own sayings, so we can talk about our own things. You and I are about the same age, so we should be called brothers. Why bother to stick to these red tapes?" Jiang Liang didn't care about this I care, after all, he and Jiang Liang are not related, what Cheng Yu and Jiang Wan say is their business, it has nothing to do with him or Cheng Xu.

"That's not the uncle who said that. The rules are the rules, and you can't change them at will. If my grandfather finds out, it's time to say that my nephew is ignorant!" Cheng Xu is a very principled person. It is awkward for someone who is still young to call his uncle, but this is the rule, not to mention, if Cheng Yu knows, it will be difficult for Cheng Xu.

"Okay, I can't say no to you, then do whatever you want, but does Nephew Cheng Xian feel a little nervous at this moment?" Jiang Liang said no to Cheng Xu, so he had to let him go.

Cheng Xu shook his head and said: "To be honest with uncle, it would be a lie to say that you are not nervous, but my nephew has done everything that can be done. Now it depends on God's will and how the court adults judge. No matter what the result is, I will I can accept it!" During the exam, Cheng Yu asked himself that he had done a good job, and now he could only look at God's will and the important court officials who were in charge of marking the exam papers.

"With the great talent of my nephew, it will definitely be no problem to pass the Beijing exam. I am not as rich as my nephew. This time the imperial examination can be said to be a gathering of talents. Cui Wen, Chen Ding, and Bao who play with us on weekdays Wen Ding and Hu Mingqing are all outstanding, not to mention the elite children from various noble families, there are many who are better than me, and I don't have the confidence!" Although Cheng Xu said that it depends on God's will and The review by the important officials of the court, but Jiang Liang knew Cheng Xu's ability. To him, winning the list was nothing more than a handy thing. On the contrary, it was himself, whose ability was not top-notch among the second generation. In addition to the second generation in Wancheng, there are also the elite children of the noble families, Jiang Liang really has no confidence.

"The list is released!" Just when Cheng Xu was about to comfort Jiang Liang, the sound of releasing the list suddenly came from outside. Cheng Xu and Jiang Liang looked outside at the same time, and found that it was already noon, and the gold list outside the examination room had already been posted. , Cheng Xu said to Jiang Liang: "Uncle, the result has come out, let's go and have a look too!"

Jiang Liang nodded and said: "Okay, let's go and have a look together!" After saying that, he walked out of the box with Cheng Xu, then out of the Yanlai Building, and went to the examination room. Along the way, Cheng Xu and Jiang Liang It can be said that I have seen all kinds of expressions in life, some are relieved, some are disappointed, some are crying bitterly, some are ecstatic, there are all kinds of expressions, some are happy and some are sad.

"Brother Cheng, Brother Jiang, here!" At this time, someone called Cheng Xu and Jiang Liang not far away, and they turned their heads to look, and found Hu Weiyong's son Hu Mingqing waving at them not far away, Cheng Xu and Jiang Liang Nodded, then walked in the direction of Hu Mingqing.

After the three met, Jiang Liang asked Hu Mingqing, "Brother Hu, why don't you go in and have a look?" He and Jiang Wan are also one of the four ministers of Qiandi Conglong. The relationship between the Cheng family and the Jiang family is very good. Through Jiang Liang, Hu Mingqing is also very familiar with Cheng Xu.

"Oh!" Hu Mingqing sighed, and said: "There are too many people, I can't squeeze in, but I saw that guy Cui Jian just now, and his face is full of spring, I think he has won the list, but now With him showing off, if I don’t win, won’t I be overwhelmed by Cui Fan in the future?” Cui Fan is the son of Cui Hao, and the Cui faction led by Cui Hao has always been the biggest opponent of the Jiang faction, so the Cui faction The relationship with the descendants of the Jiang family is not very good.

"Brother Hu, don't worry, you can get on the list with your ability. Don't worry!" Cheng Xu comforted Hu Mingqing. As for Hu Mingqing's bad words about Cui Fan, Cheng Xu didn't take it seriously. The four major factions in the court have never had much relationship, and Cheng Yu has repeatedly told Cheng Xu that it is okay to communicate with the second generations of the four major factions, but you must not get involved in the struggle between the four major factions, Cheng Xu also Always keep Cheng Yu's words in mind, and don't care about what Hu Mingqing said.

Hu Mingqing sighed, and said: "Oh, let's not talk about this, Brother Cheng and Brother Jiang are also here to see the list, that's just right, the three of us squeezed in together!" After saying that, he took the lead and went inside first Squeezing in, Cheng Xu and Jiang Liang couldn't help but shook their heads with wry smiles, and squeezed in with Hu Mingqing.

With the combined efforts of the three of them, they finally squeezed in. The first time they saw the list, the three of them began to look for their own names. Cheng Xu's was the best, because he was the first one. Cheng Xu also heaved a sigh of relief.

"Congratulations to Brother Cheng High School!" Jiang Liang and Hu Mingqing also saw Cheng Xu's name for the first time, and congratulated him one after another.

Cheng Xu said with a smile: "Finally, I have lived up to my grandfather's expectations. You two should take a look quickly. I believe your names are also on it."

Hear Cheng Xu's words.The two hurriedly searched for their names on it, and soon, Jiang Liang found his name at No. 30, and said happily, "Look, I got hit too!" Xu's shoulders made Cheng Xu's face change drastically.

Hu Mingqing on the side seemed a little lost, because he hadn't found his name until now, not thirty, fifty, or one hundred. The more he looked down, the colder Hu Mingqing's heart became, If he doesn't win, he won't have the face to play happily with his friends in the future.

However, God did not disappoint Hu Mingqing. Finally, he found his name at the 123rd place. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Brother Cheng and Brother Jiang, I have also won, but the rankings are a bit low, and they can't compare with the two. position!" Although Hu Mingqing was relieved to be selected, the ranking was very low, which made Hu Mingqing a little disappointed, and on the list, Hu Mingqing also found the names of Cui Wen, Bao Wending, and Chen Ding. Hu Mingqing was very hurt because Cui Wen still ranked tenth.

Seeing this, Cheng Xu comforted him and said, "Brother Hu, you don't need to be like this. The academic department has already said that this time, the rankings will be released in no particular order. The final ranking will have to wait until after the imperial examination, and the king will personally decide!"

Hu Mingqing smiled wryly, and did not speak. Yes, the department did say that the rankings are not in order, but those who can be ranked at the top of this list, these people are the top in the minds of the examiners, even after the palace exam. , I am afraid there will not be much change.

　There is another update, I don’t have time this morning, I will update it tonight! !
