Ming Dynasty: At the beginning of the game, Lao Zhu resigned and retired.

It's not just the candidates in Jiangnan who are wailing. If you listen carefully at this time, in all the territories of the Ming Dynasty, there are complaints from scholars everywhere.

I was really screwed.

The imperial examination is not a matter for one family.

Although there are no scholars from my family participating this year, what about next year? What about the year after next?

Anyone who has a kid at home must care about the imperial examination every year.

Not to mention those who already have enlightened children at home, that’s called caring.

Even ordinary people, until the imperial examination matters have nothing to do with them, they still have to listen more.

It's good to hear it as an anecdote, what good gossip.

But the more they listened, the more confused they became.

Because, no matter whether it is in a restaurant full of people or an inn where people come and go, there is no student who has applied for the exam this year without swearing.

"Brother Zhengli, you are the most experienced among us. Tell me, is he serious about this question?"

The man called Brother Zhengli was actually young, only in his early twenties, but his face was full of wind and frost. He smiled bitterly when he heard this, and then drank the wine cup in his hand in one gulp.

"Hi... ha, serious?"

"Is this a question of seriousness or not?"

"This is a question of whether Te Niang can come out alive."

"Didn't you see in the examination room how many people's legs were shaking after finishing the examination?"

"All those special girls are scared. They think every science test is this difficult!"

"Don't talk about them. If I hadn't taken the exam twice by chance, and I've seen what it's like to take a scientific exam, I'd probably have a broken heart!"

The students on the side also shivered unconsciously when they heard this.

It seems that just thinking about the feeling when I saw that weird last question that day, I feel chills all over.

It was really a kind of doubtful life. I felt that all these years of study were in vain, and I was a useless person.

Therefore, being mentioned by Brother Zhengli at this moment is like the unhealed scars in my heart being dug out and torn apart again. The feeling is... simply.

A student whose eyes suddenly turned red suddenly picked up a wine cup and raised it high to Brother Zhengli, even raising it above his head, and then said in a hoarse voice.

"Brother Zhengli, Li Mou respects you!"

"Thank you for your great kindness. You comforted and guided me right after I came out of the examination room!"

"Otherwise, Li might have drowned himself on the spot!"

"Here's to you!"

After speaking, he drank all the wine in the wine glass in one gulp.

Following this person, several people in a row toasted as if they suddenly realized something.

Brother Zhengli was confused by this sudden incident, his face was unconsciously blushing, and he waved his hands repeatedly.

"I just took the test two more times than you did!"

"Although I was not very lucky. I got seriously ill halfway through the first exam and was hit by falling tiles during the second exam, but I still made it into the examination room after all."

"So, I know exactly what it feels like to sit there."

"We are all going through it. After passing it, we will go through the next level. When all the levels are passed, our merits will be considered complete. But if we can't even survive the first level, then we may only have one thought in our hearts. , everything is over."

Brother Zhengli's face was full of bitterness and emotion at this time.

"I'm not afraid to tell you why I can enlighten you?"

"I feel really lucky because I was able to finish the exam in one go this year."

"As for the question being a little weird or difficult, so what?"

"It can't be just me, it's difficult for everyone, it's the same, so it seems like I'm getting better!"

"That's why I have the heart to comfort you!"

Hearing this, all the students who knew what happened to Brother Zhengli were dumbfounded.

If you put it that way, it's true.

After all, compared to the past when Brother Zhengli couldn't even pass a normal exam, this time is simply child's play.

However, a shorter and stockier student suddenly said in a deep voice.

"wrong!"

"It can't be calculated like that!"

Everyone looked at him confused, but the student said angrily without caring.

"Brother Zhengli is certainly right, everyone has the same difficulty, but this is not the reason why I can forgive the person who asked the question!"

"If he comes up with an obscure scripture meaning from an ancient book, or simply comes up with something in the court and asks us to write an embarrassing strategy, then I don't blame him!"

"After all, even if I can't write a word, I will only blame myself for my inability when I come out. Then I will just immerse myself in learning and ask the teacher for advice."

"But what is this now?"

"You are treating me like a monkey!"

"It's just such a circle. I can't even find out where it came from!"

"So, I want to know now, who asked this question, and what kind of unscrupulous thing came up with such a question!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone nodded.

Because these words express their feelings.

If it is a bit obscure, the allusion is a bit obscure, or if it simply uses national affairs or even court affairs as a policy topic, don't be afraid if you can't write it down. At least you know the direction and how to improve it.

But right now, there is a question about Da De that is missing. Even if they have all finished the exam, not one of them is patting their chests and saying that they have figured it out.

Not only them, but also their division commanders were helpless.

And this resentment, which gathered tens of thousands of students from all over the Ming Dynasty, finally broke out.

Everyone wants to know at this moment, whoever caused the problem is the one responsible for the injustice, and they will go after him!

In terms of being well-informed, it is natural that he must be a student of Yingtian Mansion.

At the feet of the Emperor, in the most virtuous place, who doesn't have a relative who eats public food?

A lot of information came out so unknowingly.

This year's Enke examiner, the initiator of the last weird question, the former prime minister and now Hanlin scholar Hu Weiyong, Mr. Hu, was exposed.

Now that the news has spread, it can no longer be concealed.

It spread to ten people and hundreds of people. Within a few days, along with the swan geese spreading letters and word of mouth, not only Yingtian, but also the entire Jiangnan area knew about it!

But after things reached this point, surprising changes took place.

Because... all the students have stopped!

That's right, it just stopped in such a weird and unintentional way.

Those who curse, those who complain, those who complain, those who keep saying they want to go to the examiner’s office to ask for an explanation...

All gone!

The reason is very simple!

Hu Weiyong!

Just based on these three words, just based on this name, it is not something that ordinary people can talk about.

This is a fierce man who once served as prime minister in the emperor's heart.

These students worked so hard to take exams, are they just heading to the officialdom?

Then...who dares to offend such a big boss?

If you have any resentments, you can only keep them in your heart.
