The examination results will be released on February 25th, and the next palace examination will be scheduled on February 28th.If this were left at ordinary people's homes, most of the remaining few days would be spent resting at home without fussing about anything.After all, even though one of the top candidates in the general examination has entered the officialdom with one foot, he has not passed the palace examination, so his name is not justified.Even if you pass the palace examination, you have to wait for the specific appointment before you can count.

It's a pity that, regardless of whether it's Jia She or Brother Zhen, the words low-key and modest don't exist in the dictionaries of these bastards.

On the day when the list was released, the two of them completely let go of all their psychological burdens and had a good time.Also because the two of them were in a particularly good mood, the servants who went to the Gongyuan with them all received generous rewards, and immediately sent people back to their respective mansions to report the great news of the day.So much so that when their carriage drove into Ningrong Street, there were already people waiting at the street corner, full of words of joy and reward.

Although Jia Amnesty and Brother Zhen have thousands of shortcomings, they have no problem of being stingy and stingy. Besides, when they are both on the gold list, no matter how stingy and stingy they are, they will definitely not be stingy at this moment.Not only the servants and cleanup guests of the two mansions, but even the people from the side branches came here one after another, thinking that taking advantage of the good mood of these two masters, it would be next to ask for more rewards. It's good to be dispatched by oil and water.

Although the people who came to welcome each other had their own little calculations in their minds, to this day, neither Jia Amnesty nor Brother Zhen cares about these things.Especially Brother Zhen, he was always thinking about his fiancée, thinking that now that he was nominated on the gold list, why should he sleep with his wife in his arms and have a baby?With his nose, it is estimated that it is impossible to feel the love between brothers and sisters, but he will definitely let his wife have a group of children in the future, not to mention, there must be more children than the Rongguo Mansion!

With this in mind, Brother Zhen left Jia Amnesty behind and returned to Ningguo Mansion in high spirits.Jia Amnesty who was left behind didn't mind, he let the carriage drive past the gate of Ningguo Mansion, and stopped in front of Rongguo Mansion, and he didn't forget to tear down the confused Jia Zheng, and the two brothers went to Rongqing Hall to announce the good news.

It is said to be good news, but Jia's mother got the letter early in the morning.It's no wonder that even the clansmen who have completed the fifth service know about these things. As the old matriarch of the Rongguo Mansion, how could it be possible that Jia's mother didn't know about it?Early in the morning, Nanny Lai pushed down the maidservant beside her, and went to tell Mother Jia about the matter in person. She was so fast and deft in her hands and feet that it was impossible to tell that she was no longer young.

Therefore, when Jia Amnesty dragged Jia Zheng to the Chuihua Gate of Rongqing Hall, Nala Shuxian and Mrs. Wang were already waiting here, except for these two, there were still a bunch of little radish heads.

Zhu Geer and Lian Geer were grown up, but they were standing obediently on the porch at the moment. When they saw the Jia Shen brothers coming, they hurriedly bowed their heads to salute.After them, there are sister Yuan, the little beauty, and Twelve, who looks like "I'm in a bad mood".As for the youngest sister Ying, she was pulled by the nanny to stand in the farthest corner.

The nanny who greeted my sister was what Jia Mu casually pointed out at the beginning, so I can't say that she was not wholehearted, but because the nanny was just an ordinary family child, she looked a bit petty, and she was no more decent than the nanny of other brothers and sisters. .Even though Sister Ying has been raised by Nala Shuxian for more than a year, the nanny is an adult, and the temperament she developed earlier is absolutely impossible to be reborn in just over a year.Therefore, she acted like this, obviously because she didn't want Sister Ying to compete for the limelight with other brothers and sisters.After all, everyone else is a descendant, but Yingjieer is a concubine.

However, the facts may not be as people wish.Sister Ying is too young, and she is doted on by Nala Shuxian on weekdays. She dared to be angry and quarrel even when she was twelve. In the corner, already feeling dissatisfied.Just in time, Jia Amnesty dragged Jia Zheng over, Ying'er immediately broke free from the nanny's hand, stumbled out, and hugged Jia Amnesty's thigh.

Jia She stopped in his footsteps, looked down and saw Ying's grinning smirk, and he, who was already very happy, suddenly felt happy, leaving Jia Zheng alone, bent over and took Ying into his arms : "You are obedient, come here and wait for me?"

The nanny kept crying from behind, but she didn't have the guts to step forward to stop her, she just slandered in her heart, which one of these people is not here to pick you up right now?However, she only dared to slander.

While talking, Nala Shuxian stepped forward and said: "Master, hurry up and go in first, the old lady has been waiting for you for a long time." After speaking, she took the opportunity to take Yingjieer, and gently pushed Jia Amnesty.

"Success! Then let's go in together." Jia She cheerfully embraced La Shuxian and the sister Ying in her arms, and walked through the hall. Seen from behind, it was a completely happy family of three.

Brother Lian, who was left behind, poked Zhu Ge'er with his elbow, showing off, "Look, the second sister belongs to my family, and the eldest sister belongs to your family."

A trace of suspicion flashed across Brother Zhu's face. In fact, he knew the truth. After all, he was not too young when Sister Ying was born.But the problem is, Sister Ying is always in Rongxi Hall on weekdays, not to mention Lixiangyuan, even Rongqing Hall is rarely visited.In addition, on the second room side, regardless of whether it is the elders Jia Zheng, Mrs. Wang and his wife, as well as the younger brothers Zhugeer and Yuanjieer, they are all thin.On the other side of the big room, Jia She and Lian are quite thin, but Nala Shuxian is round and round, as for Twelve and Ying, they are just two big meatballs.

Could it be that I really made a mistake?Zhu Geer's outlook on life began to waver.

"Let's go, Big Brother Zhu!" Brother Lian grabbed Zhu Ge'er and ran like flying. In a blink of an eye, he overtook the first few people. Taking precautions, he hugged Sister Yuan first, unwilling to leave with his brother.In desperation, Brother Lian could only drag Brother Zhu to run in the hallway, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Sister Yuan, who was hugged by Twelve, stopped silently, looked down at Twelve, thought for a while and reached out to hold Twelve's chubby hand: "Brother Cong San, sister will lead you away. "

Twelve felt that, compared to his stupid father and stupid brother, Erfang, the little brother and sister, were quite reliable, so he nodded immediately. The two of them were not in a hurry, and walked back to the main hall unsteadily just because they were a little slow Two steps, when Twelve arrived at the main hall, Mother Jia had already burst into tears and snot.

"Old man, why did you leave so early? If you can live a few more years, you can see it with your own eyes, and our She'er has finally lived up to it. Old man, you have a spirit in heaven, and you can finally do it." Rest in peace! Alas, old man, it would be great if you were still alive, Xier...you go to the ancestral hall to burn incense for your father in person, and tell him the good news yourself!"

Crying and crying, howling and howling, Jia's mother finally said something on point.

It's a pity that Jia Amnesty only slandered to himself, and didn't understand Jia's mother's kindness at all.No wonder, in Jia She's opinion, the reason why he passed the provincial and general examinations was entirely the result of his hard work and progress.At most, he counted the help of his old Taishan and his two uncles, and the people around him... especially his father who had been dead for many years, did they have any hard work?Especially after knowing the significance of Guozijian supervising students, Jia She was extremely resentful.

That's the Imperial College Supervisor!If his father had given him the place of supervisor, maybe he would have been admitted ten years earlier.However, his father was also eccentric, insisting on forcing that idiot Jia Zheng to make progress, not to mention wasting a supervisory spot, and almost bluffed him into giving brother Lian's supervisory spot to the second room.

To be honest, of course Jia Amnesty understood that his father had asked for his opinion back then, and he had agreed to it at the time.The problem is that he doesn't know what Guozijian Jiansheng can do, and no one has ever explained these things to him. If it weren't for the imperial examination that he himself took this time, he might still be living in a dream for the rest of his life.

—Hmph, just to bully him for his lack of education and knowledge!

"Okay, I'll go to the ancestral hall when I turn back." Although there were countless slanders in his heart, Jia She was not a person who did not understand etiquette at all, and understood that since the past was called the past, it meant that everything was a foregone conclusion.That being the case, he didn't need to be so petty.As for going to the ancestral hall to offer incense, that is inevitable, and he also wanted to tell his father himself, you have bad eyesight!

Thinking of this, Jia Amnesty immediately felt much better. He glanced at Jia Mu whose eyes were red and swollen from crying, and said with a smile, "Although it is urgent to go to the ancestral hall to offer incense, it is not in a hurry. In two days, I will I am about to enter the palace to take the palace examination, why not wait for the results of the palace examination and I will go to the ancestral hall to tell the old man after I get the assignment."

Mother Jia was persuaded and nodded her head: "It's okay, then do you want to go back to rest first? By the way, someone from the Zhang family has just come, so let's take some time to visit, Xi'er." Mother Jia didn't dislike Jia She's going. After all, once the Zhang family passed the imperial examination and entered the official career, they would be sure civil servants.The Pianrong State Mansion, including those close to it, were all military commanders, and the only ones who can be promoted in the official career in the future can only be those of the Zhang family.

"Okay, I'll take Shuxian to Zhang's house tomorrow." Jia She paused, and then said, "As for our family's banquet, we can put it on the next day, and the palace exam will be around 28, it doesn't matter."

"A banquet before the imperial examination?" Mother Jia asked hesitantly.

"It doesn't matter, there is a fellow Jinshi for the last time. Otherwise, it's better, I will invite those close people to a banquet tomorrow, and after the palace examination is over, I will formally distribute the posts and hold a grand banquet." He looked as if he had something to discuss, but in fact, the people in the mainland were clamoring that my master had finally won, so how could he not be chattering immediately?Left and right, he never thought of entering the first class at all, and at his level, unless he is the number one, second place, third, or the second or third class, it doesn't make much sense.

The matter of the banquet was quickly agreed upon.Jia Amnesty quickly showed his true colors, and he was always teasing about his abilities when he met everyone. As a result, Twelve couldn't open any pots and lifted which pots. With a silly and sweet smile on his face, he asked loudly, "Father, are you Huiyuan?"

Huiyuan...

of course not.

Hearing this, the smile on Jia She's face froze for a moment, and soon he was absolutely nonsense, fooling Twelve: "What's so great about Huiyuan, your father and I don't like it! By the way, Cong'er will also want to talk about it in the future." To take the imperial examination, you have to be like your father, do you understand?"

If he was as stupid as you, he wouldn't have to live.Twelve glanced at Jia She, nodded heavily, and said with a smile: "Okay, but in the future, I will first win the Jie Yuan, then get the Hui Yuan, and then become the number one in the palace examination. Do you agree?"

Jia Amnesty: ...My son even knows Sanyuan Jidi! !

"Okay." Jia She felt that he was very hurt, and finally realized that the youngest son was not as easy to fool as he imagined, but he was still unwilling to give up immediately, so he said, "Actually, your father and I are also very good, and I will try it. Finished 130th."

Twelve raised a smiling face: "I know! This time, a total of 130 students were admitted. Dad, you are ranked No. 3, and Big Brother Zhen is No. 1 from the bottom."

There is no fixed number of candidates who will be selected. The previous dynasty usually had about [-] candidates, but this dynasty is the same as the twelve previous lives, and there is no set quota.Under normal circumstances, more than one hundred to two or three hundred students are selected for each subject.Twelve clearly remembers that in the eighth year of Yongzheng's previous life, [-] students were admitted, which was the largest number in the history of the Qing Dynasty.However, the number of people admitted this year was not very high.

To be honest, being able to pass the exam is already a big deal. Before Twelve pierced the window paper, Jia She didn't feel ashamed at all.Don't you see, Jia Zheng studied hard for 20 years, and the result is not famous?It took him less than two years to work hard like him. No matter how you say it, he is considered a talent.

It has to be said that Jia Amnesty's psychological quality is really good, he lost only for a moment, and immediately he was full of energy.

"Cong'er, I told you that I blamed my father for being too playful when I was a child and not being able to study well. If my father was like your second uncle when he was a child, studying hard in the cold window of the study every day, let alone a mere genius , there is no problem with the champion. It’s a pity... how do you say the old saying? Young people don’t work hard and the boss is sad. Conger, you have to work hard, just like you said just now. Time to be proud of you!"

Jia Amnesty thought he was motivating Twelve, but Twelve who was encouraged was not moved at all. Instead, Jia Zheng, who stood aside as a decoration, felt very cold in his heart.

That's right, if Jia Amnesty didn't tell the truth, Jia Zheng himself would not have realized it.In fact, as a younger brother, Jia She could not be more clear about how naughty Jia She was when he was a child.As for suddenly starting to work hard, that was more than a year ago.I vaguely remember that I "falled" and broke my leg the year before last, while Jia Amnesty had a brain twitch. That was also when the year before last was approaching the end of the year, and now it's only the end of February.Calculating carefully, it was a year and a half.

Can one and a half years of hard study be able to participate in the imperial examination?In the past, Jia Zheng would never believe it.

There is no limit to the sea of ​​learning and hard work, how can you get the tangy fragrance of plum blossoms without going through a bit of cold?

"My lord, what's wrong with you, my lord? My lord! Call doctor! Doctor!" Mrs. Wang suddenly yelled, for no other reason than just now, Jia Zheng, who had been standing beside her silently, suddenly The big head fell down on the ground.Mrs. Wang's reaction was quite quick, but it was so. When she helped Jia Zheng up, she also saw the blood on Jia Zheng's head and face, and she screamed in fright.

He fell headfirst and ate shit!

The blood on the head and face is obviously a broken nose bone, the problem is definitely not big, but this good-looking person suddenly fainted like this, what happened here?

Not to mention that Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang were terribly frightened, even Nala Shuxian, who had always been calm, was taken aback. As for Jia Amnesty, after the initial bewilderment, he decisively ordered: "Take care of the old mandarin ducks and parrots." Ma'am, Shuxian, the children are all in your hands. Mrs. Wang asked someone to call the doctor immediately, and I will carry my second brother to the wing room to rest."

In the entire Rongqing hall, the most indispensable thing is manpower, but because Jia Mu likes young and graceful little maids, apart from the frightened Nanny Lai, she doesn't even have a capable servant.Jia Amnesty had no choice but to go into battle in person, and first carried Jia Zheng to the East Wing not far away, which was the original Zhu Geer's room.As for the other people, although they were all frightened out of their wits, they still obediently followed Jia She's orders.

Jia's mother was dragged into the back room by two maidservants, she was not in good health, and suddenly saw her most beloved youngest son fall with blood all over his head, what could be better?Although it is not possible to faint along with it, it is inevitable to be light-headed, and even vaguely have double vision when looking at things.It wasn't until he lay on the kang and rubbed a little medicated oil on his chest and on his temples that he finally regained his senses.

Mrs. Wang was also very frightened, and she called for the doctor immediately, while she followed behind, and when Jia Amnesty placed Jia Zheng on the bed in the East Wing, she couldn't control herself. Lie on Jia Zheng's chest and burst into tears.

"Why are you crying? You're not dead yet, are you howling or something? Shut your mouth! If you can't take care of me, call the two aunts in your room to take care of them. Hurry up!" Jia Shen He scolded angrily.

After being yelled at by Jia She, Mrs. Wang was slightly relieved, she did not dare to challenge Jia She, in fact she was not in the mood at the moment.He hurriedly lowered his head and responded in a polite manner, and then asked people to go to Lixiangyuan to call someone.Ordinarily, Rongqingtang has no shortage of personal servants, even if Jia Zheng is a man, it doesn't matter, at most, he just waits for him to recover and let Jia Mu drop him off, and everything will be fine.But Jia Amnesty didn't mention it, Mrs. Wang would never be so stupid as to speak up.In her opinion, even if Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhao took the opportunity to gain face, it would be far better than adding a few more people to the room.

As for Jia Amnesty, seeing that someone was waiting for her, she didn't say much, she went straight out of the East Wing, and went to the front to have a look. Seeing that La Shuxian had arranged the children properly, she felt relieved.He has never been careful, he has never seen Brother Zhu and Sister Yuan have red eye circles, and even if he saw it, he didn't know how to comfort him, so he just turned around and went to Mother Jia's room .

The doctor came quickly, and after taking Jia Zheng's pulse, he didn't think too much about it, he just said bluntly that this was a depression in his heart, and immediately prescribed a dose of calming medicine, and then left.

However, after the doctor's words reached everyone's ears, people didn't know what to say.Even Jia's mother, who loves Jia Zheng the most, has mixed feelings in her heart at the moment, and she can't figure out why Jia Zheng is so hardworking and motivated, but finally loses his name, while Jia She only studied hard for one year. After more than a year, he was named on the gold list.

Unlike Twelve, from the very beginning, no one expected that Jia She could pass the exam. As for the Sanyuan and the first grades, they only existed in legends. Jia Amnesty insisted on winning the first prize.In her opinion, being able to win the middle school is already very good, and Jia Zheng was never seen...

Jia Mu stared at the beam above her head, and after a while she said as if she was talking to herself: "This man, it seems that he is really very smart and not smart."

In terms of hard work, Jia Amnesty cannot be compared with Jia Zheng.Then the only result is that Jia Zheng is too stupid, and Jia Amnesty just loves to play with uncertainty. Once he works hard, he will surpass Jia Zheng in minutes.

Compared with Jia Mu who thought she had realized the truth, the look on Jia She's face is really wonderful.

As soon as he learned of Jia Zheng's illness, Jia She immediately turned around and pulled Nala Shuxian and the children away, as if he didn't want to meddle in other people's business.When he returned to Rongxi Hall, before entering the room, he complained: "Shuxian, what do you call this? I passed the exam, so he's not happy for me, he's still depressed. Hmph , is clearly jealous of me!"

"It's a mediocrity not to attract envy. Have you ever heard of this sentence?" Nala Shuxian raised her eyebrows and smiled, "By the way, the old lady only talked about the Zhang family, but didn't mention that the Wang family also sent someone here." It's Mr. Wang, he invited you to visit Wang's house, Mr. Wang, as if he had something important to discuss."

"What's important for him?" Jia She blurted out subconsciously, then slapped his forehead and said with a smile, "By the way, I still have a bet with Wang Zisheng, I'll go right away."

"It's not in a hurry." Before La Shuxian finished speaking, Jia Amnesty had already disappeared without a trace, and she couldn't laugh or cry.

Brother Lian at the side couldn't understand what happened at all, seeing Jia She ran away, he secretly glanced at Nala Shuxian, then turned and ran away, but the direction he looked was towards Rongqing Hall.Nala Shuxian didn't take it seriously, she only motioned for the maidservant to follow, and immediately brought Twelve and Sister Ying into the room.

Twelve sneered and said, "Is it a mediocrity not to be jealous? Mother, you are too kind to stupid father!"

——Cheated and only passed the third-to-last idiot!
