Chapter 119 No, That's Indulgence
Chapter 119 No, That's Indulgence
Gu Ziyun is full of confidence.
Some time ago, it was Gu Zilu who brought food, drinks, writing brushes, paper and inkstone to the exam. This time, it was Gu Zixuan who brought food, drinks, writing brushes, paper and inkstone to the exam. However, the scale of the metropolitan examination was much larger than the county examination. Soldiers in armor and holding weapons surrounded the examination hall. The shining spear tips exuded cold murderous intent, and one second's glance at them would make people feel afraid.
However, Gu Zixuan was not afraid. After participating in many hunting events, he no longer had anything to be afraid of.
While waiting to enter the examination room at the entrance of the Imperial Examination Hall, people were searched carefully in front of them. Their clothes were checked inside and out, and all the cakes and pastries they brought with them were broken open, for fear that someone might have brought in cheat sheets or something like that.
Cheating in the examination was a serious crime, which also reflected the emperor's determination to select talents. Once cheating was discovered, the officials in the examination room would be implicated.
The host this time was Chen Huailiang, so he was naturally very careful, otherwise, what might be waiting for him was not a promotion, but a demotion.
Therefore, Chen Huailiang also stood at the gate in person, watching Souzi search the body.
The moment he saw Gu Zixuan, Chen Huailiang frowned, pointed at Gu Zixuan, and said to Souzi: "Search these carefully."
Yin Zhengnan was stunned and frowned immediately. What does that mean? !
He subconsciously wanted to open his mouth, but Gu Zixuan grabbed him and slowly shook his head.
Are you crazy? If you cause trouble at this time, even if your cousin the emperor comes, he will have to stand on Chen Huailiang's side.
This is a test!
Yin Zhengnan was so angry that he kept humming, but he could only let Souzi search his body thoroughly.
Ma Guang and a few others followed behind them, and when they saw this, they laughed at them.
"Even the examiner thinks you must have cheated."
"There's nothing we can do. It's because these two people's performance is not good on weekdays. We should search more for such people!"
These bastards!
Yin Zhengnan glared at Ma Guang and his men. If they were not at the gate of the Imperial Examination Hall, he would have rushed up and fought with Ma Guang again.
Anyway, this loser can't beat me, so is that a fight? No, that's a one-sided beating.
"No problem, sir."
I searched it three times. If I had pants in this era, I would probably have turned the pants inside out.
Yin Zhengnan felt that he was wronged and looked at Chen Huailiang.
Chen Huailiang waved his hand: "Let him go."
If there is no problem, then he has no reason to make things difficult for himself. However, Gu Zixuan has no knowledge and can never compare to Gu Ziyun.
Chen Huailiang was still full of hope for Gu Ziyun. When he saw him coming, he asked Souzi to search him briefly and then let him go.
This differential treatment should not be made too obvious.
Many people around also saw this scene. They looked at each other, but no one got angry. They were not stupid. If they made trouble here, they would not have to take the exam. Maybe they would not have to take it in the future.
So, let’s go in first.
After the body search, everyone finally entered the examination room and the door slowly closed, cutting off all contact between the inside and the outside.
There will be three examinations, each lasting three days and nights, and the final battle begins.
Inside the high walls, everyone was busy writing, while outside the walls, their families were reluctant to leave.
Gu Changqing was as confident as Chen Huailiang. He had no worries at all and still went to court every day and ate and drank normally.
Inside the Marquis' Mansion, Zou knelt in front of the Buddha statue and muttered something. She was praying for her two children, hoping that they could pass the exams safely, get good grades, and preferably be on the list, so that one of them could be outstanding and save the desolate Marquis' Mansion.
Lin Wanhui was also walking back and forth anxiously, and she clasped her hands together and bowed from time to time. She was praying that her son must perform well, pass the imperial examination, and then marry the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion. The rest of his life would be a smooth journey!
Therefore, the imperial examination is very important, Brother Yun, you must work hard!
The atmosphere in the mansion was tense, and Su Jin just did what he was supposed to do.
The grapes on the shelf were almost ripe, so she ordered someone to bring a stool and stepped on it to pick the red ones. She didn't pick them in bunches, but just picked a few ripe grapes from a bunch and ate them one by one. After eating, she smacked her lips and nodded, "Fresh grapes are really the best."
These are much more delicious than the grapes that have been stored in the supermarket for several days. The skin of fresh grapes is tight. When you pinch it with your fingernail, the juice pops out, bringing with it the refreshing and sweet flavor of the grape.
"Madam, aren't you nervous at all about Brother Xuan's imperial examination?"
Yuchuan was so anxious that two big bags appeared at the corners of her mouth. Although Jinchuan did not show it, she was also often uneasy. An Xiaoniang had to kowtow to the Buddha every day. As for Su Jin, she would pick some grapes today and ask someone to go to the pond tomorrow to feel how big the lotus roots were and whether they were ready to eat.
Su Jin smiled and said, "Why are you so nervous? What is his, won't go away. What is not his, won't last long even if you take it."
This also applies to Gu Ziyun.
We'll see when the time comes.
Three exams, and I came back twice in between.
After coming back, he could only wash up and rest quickly, and then prepare to fight again after waking up. This examination was like a war, and everyone in the mansion was busy running around.
However, Su Jin is never one of the people who are in a mess.
While the other courtyards are busy, the lady always lies down.
Thus, the days of the imperial examination passed in Su Jin's leisurely life.
Nervous? No, she really didn't feel any nervousness at all.
After the imperial examination was over, Gu Zixuan and Gu Ziyun could finally return home to have a good rest. This long examination season was exhausting.
Gu Zixuan was better off, as he had been strong since childhood. He was still able to keep his back straight despite all the torture. Except for his somewhat unsteady steps, everything else seemed fine. However, Gu Ziyun was far worse. He looked pale and was carried back by a servant.
"Brother Yun, my son!" When Lin Wanhui saw Gu Ziyun like this, she immediately cried and hugged him in her arms.
Look at how a candidate tortured his son. But fortunately, it only happens once in his life.
Lin Wanhui anxiously asked, "How did you do in the exam?"
Gu Ziyun nodded, and Lin Wanhui immediately smiled, as happy as if she had been granted an imperial decree. She quickly turned around, asked the kitchen to prepare something delicious, and walked back with the child.
"Good boy, I've made you a lot of delicious food, all your favorites. Have a good meal, and then have a good sleep. Next, we'll wait for the gongs and drums outside to come over and announce the good news!"
Gu Zixuan, who was left at the door, laughed.
Send good news? ?
Tsk tsk~~
Gu Zixuan walked in while shaking his head. The door was empty. Gu Ziyun had someone to meet him, but he...
He couldn't help but sigh. Sure enough, his mother wouldn't come out to greet him.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Su Jin coming out with Gu Zilu and Gu Suiyu.
"How did you do on the test?"
Su Jin's voice was very calm, without any sadness or joy, but it made Xuan Ge'er's nose sore, and then he nodded heavily: "It's an extraordinary performance."
Su Jin smiled: "Let's go to the brothel, mother will take you to relax!"
What should I do after the college entrance examination?
Tearing up books, smashing tables, throwing schoolbags? No, that's called indulgence.
