I can redeem the merit template

If there is any objection, it will be handed over to several chief examiners for evaluation.

……

In the cold wind, Wang Yuan slowly walked out from the gate of the Imperial College holding an oil umbrella.

"Son!"

Wang Fu and Wang Xi had been waiting at the entrance of the Imperial College for a long time. They were shivering with cold, but they looked at the Imperial College with apprehension and anticipation. Even the chill around them seemed to be far away. Seeing Wang Yuan walking out from inside , suddenly looked overjoyed, and quickly walked over with a group of gray-clothed servants.

"Young master, is it cold? Do you want to eat something to warm up your stomach!"

A group of boys were carrying food boxes, some were holding clothes, and some were carrying animal charcoal stoves, their faces were full of joy.

"Hmm! Take it out, I'm really hungry!"

Wang Yuan glanced at the two young servants who were extremely happy, and waved gently.

"Bring them here, bring them all here, our son is hungry!"

Wang Fu suppressed the joy on his face, and quickly waved his hand, and suddenly a few nimble servants came over with food boxes.

Wang Yuan looked at it, and immediately felt an appetite.

Dishes, snacks, and fruits are all in several food boxes.

"My son, my wife asked my little one to prepare meat, dried preserved meat, and Xinlelou's famous signature dishes, ginger and spicy radish, Xiayue sesame curd chicken skin, Dongyue pan rabbit, and lychee paste from Zhouqiao night market. , plum ginger, crystal horn, medicinal papaya!"

"In addition, according to my wife's arrangement, the villain has already booked a private room for the young master in Fanlou!"

Wang Fu responded fluently.

"My wife has everything covered!"

Wang Yuan smiled slightly, Xinlelou, Panjialou, Changqinglou, Gaoyangzhengdian, Zhongshanzhengdian, and Yuxianzhengdian are one of the largest restaurants in the capital, especially the dishes are excellent.

The most lively place is undoubtedly Fanlou, Fanlou is a place that all dignitaries yearn for, and it is extremely lively.

It is expected that after the exams, many candidates will go to Fan Lou for a gathering.

As for the Zhouqiao Night Market, it is a quite famous big market nearby.

Wang Yuan ate this plate of Dongyue Pan Rabbit Scrambled. He has always had a strong appetite and has certain requirements for delicious food, but the plate of rabbit meat in his hand did make him feel rarely satisfied.

At this time, Wang Yuan noticed that another group of people came out of the Imperial College.

"Brother Li!"

"Son!"

Li Zhaoting was impressively among the dozen candidates, at this time Li Zhaoting still showed a relaxed look and was able to do a job with ease.

It was Li Fu who yelled Young Master over there, and Li Fu also looked overjoyed.

Wang Yuan's complexion was a bit subtle, but Li Zhaoting managed to sneak into the examination room of the Tribute Academy, which really made Wang Yuan have some thoughts.

"Brother Wang came out so early, it looks like he should have done well in the exam!"

Li Zhaoting looked at Wang Yuan in surprise, she was still very confident in her own talents, otherwise she would not have come to rely on her.

But I didn't expect this friend to leave the examination room before her.

But thinking of the poem written by this friend at the Yellow River Ferry, Li Zhaoting took it for granted.

Over there, Cai Qi and Li Zhaoting walked out of the Guozijian just on their feet.

Seeing Wang Yuan and Li Zhaoting, he was also a little surprised.

That's all for Wang Yuan. After that poem, his talent and learning have been recognized by everyone.

However, Li Zhaoting, who is not well-known, actually managed to get ahead of the crowd, which really made Cai Qi feel uncomfortable.

It's not jealousy, it's just instinct, and there is no lack of speculation about whether Li Zhaoting has used some disgraceful means to make profits for himself.

This is the benefit of fame.

Fame comes first, and after making achievements, it is a matter of course.

If there is no fame at all, and suddenly become a blockbuster, there will inevitably be doubts.

This is still a well-intentioned question. If it is a malicious question, it will be incited by others, and it can even coerce public opinion. In the future, even if it is a gold medal title, it will also be targeted.

All, the scholars of the country have a very distinctive feature.

In a war, some officials may become weaker and weaker one by one, but if it is a matter of fame and fortune, white knives come in and red knives come out, and it is never ambiguous.

Seeing the two people coming out, Wang Yuan waved his hand immediately, Wang Xi understood, and quickly brought some unopened food boxes from the side, and handed them to Li Zhaoting, Cai Qi, and several other acquainted Juren.

A group of Juren also had a big appetite at the moment, and they all took the food boxes at hand without politeness.

"Brother Wang is still grand!"

"That's not true, you don't forget that Brother Wang is from the Langya Wang clan, and the Langya Wang clan's talent name is well known!"

Li Zhaoting smiled lightly, and she glanced at Wang Yuan lightly with her wonderful eyes, but there was worry in her eyes.

Although she has a lot of confidence in talent and learning, she also feels worried when she sees many well-educated people appearing one after another among the thousands of people.

She must try to win a Jinshi, and then she can try to save the family in her heart.

But the first step in front of her has already made her feel uneasy, and each of the next few steps is walking on the tightrope, so how can she not worry about it.

Worrying in his heart, his appetite in his hand could not help but decrease a lot, and there was a trace of sadness on the lotus jade noodles!

"Brother Li, what, do you have something on your mind?"

Beside, Wang Yuan's voice came.

Li Zhaoting raised his head, only to see Wang Yuan's eyes were smiling, and he said narrowly: "Could it be that you also fell in love with a girl from another family? If you fell in love with a girl from another family, brother Yu can also be the master of the younger brother's appointment. You and I are friends of Jinlan." , will definitely not let the Li family lose face!"

Hearing this, the other Juren also looked at this and smiled.

By the roadside, there were many ladies who came to pick him up, with surprised expressions on their faces.

Li Zhaoting is embarrassing!

And next to it, in the teahouses outside the Imperial College, there are servants dressed in fine clothes, or spies from the houses of various dignitaries and nobles in the capital who are already eager to try.

Their task is to take the lead and investigate the reality of the masters!

Record their identities, talents, and performance after the exam, and then hand them over to the head mistress of the family.

What is it?Naturally, it is to catch the son-in-law!

Chapter 108

Many of the Jinshi in each subject were snatched away under the yellow list.

I went directly to my father-in-law's house to look at the dowry. I don't need any parents to make decisions, just find a highly respected high-ranking official to make decisions.

Those officials are often also willing to adult beauty.

Take advantage of the opportunity to get closer to those Jinshi, get close to one or two.

Many Juren also looked around vigilantly, they didn't want to be taken away so early and assigned to be a lady!

The group simply went to the nearby teahouse to wait.

Wait for the other Juren to appear in the small group.

A group of Juren finally had some friendship before. If everyone can achieve something in their careers, the boat of friendship between everyone will undoubtedly go further.

Wang Yuan also had no objection, waiting for a while would not be a hindrance to anything, he is not someone who likes to be quiet, on the contrary he prefers to be lively.

After waiting for a long time, Wang Yuan and others saw Zhou Gai walking out of the gate of the Imperial College with a pale face.

It was almost dusk when Zhou Gai walked out, and by this time, almost all the candidates had submitted their answers.

"It looks like Brother Zhou didn't do well in the exam?"

Some people looked surprised, he was Zhai Wenlin, and he was one of the people who had previously partnered with Zhou Gai to snatch Gongtong.

It's just that he was lucky, and it was just a temporary abdominal pain. Zhou probably seemed to be sick, with abdominal pain and diarrhea.

"Brother Zhou is a very proud person, I'd better not provoke Brother Zhou later!"

Cai Qi sighed a little at this moment, and persuaded the other Juren around him.

Cai Qi is not hypocritical, he had a pretty good friendship with Zhou Gai before, so naturally he knows Zhou Gai's ability, if this kind of thing does not happen, Zhou Gai should have the hope of being named on the Gold List.

And Fu Qianming, Fu Qianming hasn't come out yet.

These two are probably the biggest losers this time!

Over there, a person from far away said loudly: "Brother Zhou, you came out just in time. Brother Wang has reserved a good seat in Fan Lou this time. Why don't you and I get drunk together?"

"No, I won't go, you go!"

Zhou probably lost his mind at this time.

Ignoring everyone at the moment, I walked out of the Imperial College with a pale face.

"Brother Zhou, this is a bit uninteresting!"

Seeing this scene, some people immediately looked unhappy.

But most Juren are quite understanding, if this kind of thing falls on them, it will be hard to let go.

Zhai Wenlin felt the same way.

He was a little lucky, fortunately his luck was not too bad, he met a girl on the road and gave him a pill, which relieved his bad luck.

At that moment, the whole group did not wait any longer, leaving a few servants to wait for the other companions, and set off towards Fanlou mightily, impatient to meet the other Juren for a while.

……

The Fan Tower was very lively, with many people gathered together, but this excitement quickly returned to silence after the ritual examination ended.

All the people began to wait for the release date in the long spring rainy season.

Similar to Wang Yuan, he focused his attention on the palace examination. In the small courtyard behind the Sanhe Hall, he was on the desk at this time, and there were some questions from previous years' palace examinations.

These were all prepared by Mrs. Sun early and delivered by someone, many of them were made by some Hanlin scholars.

Hanlin Bachelor is a relatively noble position, but expensive is expensive, but it is also a Qingshui yamen.

Some Hanlin bachelors naturally want to make some extra money, such as being keen on guessing questions.

Sun used the influence of the Sun family and the Wang family to find several old scholars in the capital who had a relatively high chance of guessing correctly.

Although Wang Yuan didn't know where Sun's self-confidence came from, he was a little confident in himself, and immediately started practicing according to these sets of exercises.

……

The Ministry of Rites examination starts in early February, and the list is usually in late February, which is about ten days apart.

There is no set number for the number of scholars that the Ministry of Rites tries to obtain.

Sometimes it will take about three hundred, sometimes it will take about two hundred, and in special cases it will be more than 100.

Three years ago, more than 200 Jinshi were obtained in the imperial examination.

Jinke may be more than 100 to [-].

……

Half a month is too long for many Juren who live like a year, especially those who have not performed well.

But for Wang Yuan, half a month is fleeting.

Immersed in the palace test simulation, time flies by.

Coupled with the time for meditation practice, I just feel that the time is not enough!

……

On the day when the rankings were released, the rare sky cleared up, but the cold air condensed in the Northland still did not dissipate.

Before the ranking list, many candidates who were ready to read the list gathered early, and there were also nobles from various mansions in the capital who came to read the list, or book boys and servants, waiting for the release of the list.

In Sanhe Hall, Wang Fu and Wang Xi took the initiative to ask Ying to read the rankings for Wang Yuan, but Wang Yuan rejected the proposal, simply because the weather was good, and immediately came out to read the rankings in person.

Around Wang Yuan, there were a few strong men with big arms and round waists. With their huge physiques, they helped Wang Yuan squeeze away the people watching the list. They were the strong men hired by Sanhe Tuan with a lot of money.

It's almost the same as Sanhetang's actions. There are also quite a few high-ranking Juren who simply recruited some burly guards at home to help stand in front of the left and right, so that it is convenient to read the list.
