[The second thousand and thirty-eight chapters before the announcement]
Although there is still half an hour before the rankings are released, a large number of candidates have already gathered in front of the county office.
“Xiao Lang, why don’t we find a restaurant to sit and wait?”
Chen Chong suggested.
“Okay!” Song Yan nodded.
Boarded a nearby teahouse, ordered another pot of tea, and the two quietly waited for the announcement.
This teahouse is close to the county government office, so there are many candidates sitting here waiting for the announcement.
“Brother Xiao, with your talent and learning, I’m afraid that this time Tong Sheng’s case must be yours!”
A voice sounded, which was particularly loud.
For a while, everyone turned around to look, and found that the voice came from the window of the restaurant, and it was a fat boy who was talking. As soon as he saw this boy, Song Yan remembered that this person didn’t hear him say he was sure after the exam. After he passed the exam, was he an obese boy who was outspoken?
Sitting opposite the fat boy was a young man in brocade clothes, and behind him stood two tall servants who were very powerful.
And the brocade-clothed boy looked like he was thirteen or fourteen years old. He looked quite handsome, but there was a hint of arrogance in his eyebrows.
The next moment, the brocade-clothed boy said, “Brother Huang, keep a low profile. It hasn’t been released yet, so don’t talk nonsense.”
“Who doesn’t know that you Xiao Yu is a prodigy in our Huangshan County, who is qualified to take the case except you!” The fat boy continued to tout.
Hearing that the fat boy named the identity of the Jinyi boy, there was an uproar in the restaurant.
“He is Xiao Yu! Sure enough, he was born with a handsome appearance!”
“I heard that he can write poems at the age of five, write essays at the age of six, and read the history of the Five Kingdoms at the age of eight. If it wasn’t for the country’s rule that he could take the Tongsheng exam at the age of 12, I’m afraid he would be a Tongsheng at the age of nine! ”
“It’s so powerful, it really deserves to be a child prodigy!”
“That’s because the Xiao family has a deep relationship, the little prodigy’s father is Juren, and the two uncles are scholars, a typical scholarly family!”
…………
Hearing the discussion in the teahouse, Song Yan also remembered that he seemed to have heard the name of the little prodigy Xiao Yu.
“Hey, aren’t you the kid who ranted yesterday?”
Suddenly, the obese boy noticed Song Yan and said abusively.
Hearing this, Song Yan couldn’t help frowning, feeling a little unhappy in his heart. He didn’t care about him yesterday, but he didn’t expect that he would dare to humiliate him today.
Seeing Song Yan, the obese boy didn’t say a word, but he became more and more serious: “What? Am I wrong, you are so poor and want to take the Tongsheng test, it’s just a daydream!”
“I can’t take the Tongsheng exam because I’m so poor. Could it be that you can take the exam with a fat brain?” Song Yan said lightly.
The obese boy was furious, slapped the table, pointed at Song Yan and scolded: “What, you dare to call me fat, boy, do you know who my father is?”
“How do I know who your father is, you have to go back and ask your mother!”
Song Yan said playfully.
“Why do you ask my mother?” The fat boy looked confused.
“Because you can only know who your father is by asking your mother!”
As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of laughter in the teahouse.
The obese boy also reacted, his face suddenly flushed, and there was a sense of resentment in his eyes.
at this time.
The brocade-clothed young man Xiao Yu stood up and looked at Song Yan proudly: “This son, it’s not right for you to say that, it’s just insulting the gentleness of our scholars.”
“Are you fighting for him? Could it be because he flattered you?” Song Yan said lightly, “I didn’t provoke him by sitting here, but he made fun of me. Whoever is right and who is wrong can see at a glance. It can be seen that just because you have the title of a little prodigy, you can not tell right from wrong, and help your relatives to ignore reason?”
Facing Song Yan’s snatch, Xiao Yu’s handsome cheeks turned red, and after a while, she said angrily, “You are talking nonsense, I don’t.”
“Since not, then sit down!”
Song Yan said lightly.
“you!”
Suddenly, Xiao Yu became angry.
The eyes of the two servants behind him were a bit more sullen. One of them strode towards Song Yan, and Chen Chong stood up with him, staring at each other vigilantly.
“What, do you want to do it?”
Song Yan looked at the other party fearlessly, but with a bit of sneer on his face: “The county government is not far away, and now is the critical moment for the announcement, do you want to add a bit of bullying to your son and instruct the villain to beat him? Is it the candidate’s name?”
Hearing Song Yan’s words, the servant’s face became a little more panicked.
Xiao Yu shouted: “God slave, whoever asked you to make an opinion, go back to me!”
As Song Yan said, the county government office is not far away, and it is the critical moment for the announcement. Once the situation becomes serious, he may not be able to escape the charge of instigating a vicious slave to beat someone. serious.
In the dynasty, the status of a scholar is very high. If it is an ordinary scholar, it will be fine, but it will be different if you have a reputation. If a minion beats a child, at least dozens of big boards will be hit.
Hearing Xiao Yu’s scolding, the servant glared at Song Yan before retreating unwillingly.
“Humph!”
Xiao Yu also stared at Song Yan in dissatisfaction.
Time passed slowly, and it was finally time to release the list.
Two yamen officers walked out of the county government office, one holding a rolled up red list in their hands. Suddenly, the people gathered outside the county government office were all excited and excited, and many people rushed forward.
“Back off, back off! Give me back all the way, I’ve squeezed out the list and asked you guys!”
One of the yamen scolded.
Immediately, the crowded crowd fell silent.
soon. The two yamen posted the red list on the wall, and the list was released three times.
After posting the red list, the yamen did not leave, but stood there guarding the red list, so as not to be torn away.
“I hit, hit, I hit, I hit eighty-five!”
Squeezed at the very front, a scholar in his twenties danced and danced.
Immediately, everyone looked up at No. 85: No. 85, the name of the student from Hulin Township was Wei Tang.
In order to appear the same name and the wrong person, therefore, the town will be added to the name.
“Congratulations, Young Master Wei!”
“Hexi Young Master Wei!”
For a time, everyone congratulated Wei Chang.
Song Yan, who had a panoramic view of this scene in the teahouse, curled his lips secretly, isn’t he just a boy, is he worthy of such joy?
In his opinion, being admitted to Tongsheng is like a junior high school student being admitted to a high school.
At the same time, his eyes landed on the red list across dozens of meters, and he did not find his name.
“Xiao Lang, I’ll go see if I have your name!”
Chen Chong hurried downstairs.
Song Yan wanted to stop him, but in the end he didn’t speak, let him go.
Soon.
Chen Chong returned in disappointment, apparently not seeing Song Yan’s name, the fat boy saw this, “I said, just because you want to be a child, it’s just a daydream!”
“Since you said I couldn’t win, then we might as well make a bet!” Song Yan looked at the other party and said.
