Prime Minister

Chapter 223 The Circle
After the exam, Zhang Yue and the others felt a little tired, as if the whole person had been taken out.

Not to mention anything else, even being bored in the examination room for three days is extremely uncomfortable.After a big drunk, everyone lay down in the Taixue. Let's sleep in the dark first. The following is the various indulgences before the rankings are released.

However, there are also differences between classmates, and some people are just like normal people.The solution test is just a formality for them.

Like Han Zhongyan, who has seen a lot of the world, and has a prime minister at home to support him, he is calm when encountering major and minor matters, and the Guozijian's examination is of course not a problem.

I heard that the day before the examination, he had a hot fight with a woman from a brothel, and wrote several obscene poems, which were widely circulated among the scholars in the capital.

On the day of the examination, it was still the servant who lifted him from the bed of the brothel woman and sent him directly to the examination room.

Although Huang Haoyi and the others despise Han Zhongyan a lot on weekdays, they secretly envy him when they talk about him. After all, in those amazing times in the brothel in their eyes, women who can engrave their memories are beyond reach.

But in Han Zhongyan's memory, it was nothing more than a sweaty exercise, or it became the talk of the yamen after dinner.

Among the crowd, Huang Haoyi was the most jealous of Han Zhongyan, but he never dared to say it directly.Han Zhongyan's words were arranged several times behind the scenes, but for some reason they were passed into Han Zhongyan's ears.

As a result, when Zhang Yue was away, Huang Haoyi was met by Han Zhongyan in the dining hall, and he threw a woman's bellyband on his face in front of everyone.

Huang Haoyi didn't dare to make a sound when he was humiliated, and he didn't even dare to speak to Zhang Yue.

From then on, Huang Haoyi kept a low profile and didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore.

As for Zhang Yue, when he knew about it, he also groaned for Huang Haoyi.

In Taixue, poor students like him and Huang Lu are not the worst, but Huang Haoyi is the worst.

He doesn't have the ruthlessness of a poor student who draws a knife to see blood, nor is he smooth enough in dealing with people, and his background is not as good as Han Zhongyan.Therefore, Huang Haoyi's rebellion is sad.

Han Zhongyan and the others usually bully people like Huang Haoyi.

But having said that, today's Huang Haoyi made Zhang Yue feel much more at ease.

After all, it is naive without being hit.

After the test, it was Sun Guo who made Zhang more worried.

A few days after the test, Sun Guo's mood became more and more gloomy.

Zhang Yue couldn't stand it once, so he asked him to chat.

Sun Guo said bluntly: "Master Zhai, is it true that there are no true friends in the world except blood relatives?"

Zhang Yue said, "Why do you say that?"

Sun Guo smiled bitterly and said, "I've seen it a lot now. Poems and books have misled me for 20 years. Nothing has misunderstood the ancient and modern people more than the word morality. Is a person like Han Zhongyan moral? Otherwise, but why did he not?" It is the most beautiful and proudest in Taixue."

Zhang Yue said: "Zi Xia said, it's okay for a great virtue to be as good as a small one. Although Shi Pu has disadvantages in small things, he can still do big things."

Sun Guo shook his head and said, "Master Zhai, you didn't say that about Shi Pu back then, but now you also..."

Zhang Yue said: "No one can see for sure just by looking at it."

Sun Guodao: "No, at the beginning the head of the house didn't like Shi Pu because he challenged your prestige, but now he can do you good, you can speak well for him."

"That's right, it's a pity that the word morality is written all day long in poems and books, which is the most misleading. If I had known that the relationship between people is a good word, I wouldn't be so confused."

"How can you say that? Don't think too far."

Sun Guo smiled wryly and said, "Master Zhai, look at the word morality, it's all for those of us from poor families, because we only know how to talk about feelings and save face, what about them? There is only one word for benefit."

"It's like I value a person very much, so I treat him well, but if I value him, does he value me?"

Zhang Yue was taken aback and asked, "You know Chunfu?"

Sun Guodao: "I regard Chunfu as a close friend, but he has become more and more distant from me recently."

Zhang Yue said: "I told you, how did Liu Zuo and Xiang Qi in the Zhai house go from being good friends to breaking up?"

"As for Chunfu, he's not that kind of person, but you've been too much lately... No one would like it if you change it like this."

"Yes." Sun Guo didn't expect Zhang Yue to say this, and his face was filled with anger and he suppressed it.

Zhang Yue shook his head, and said a few words of comfort to him kindly, but he was blamed instead.

Zhang Yue patted Sun Guo on the shoulder and said, "I'll have a long chat with you after the release of the test results."

"The head of the fast usually takes care of me the most, and I know that in my heart." Sun Guoyan said.

Zhang Yue smiled when he heard the words: "It's not worth mentioning, because you didn't pass the exam, it's not uncommon for you to be anxious in your heart. If you have anything in your heart, you might as well talk to Chunfu and me."

"Talk more and hurt people." Sun Guo lowered his head.

Zhang Yue looked at Sun Guo and knew that the other party was a very sensitive person.

Zhang Yue said with a smile: "Then you have to speak, and you have to tell the truth like you and I today. If you are afraid of hurting others, you can not tell the whole truth, but you can't tell lies. False words often can't deceive people, but will deceive you." Own."

Sun Guo was taken aback for a moment, then thanked Zhang Yue.

Afterwards, Sun Guo's mood calmed down.

Just two days before the release of the list, Han Zhongyan suddenly found Zhang Yue and said with a smile, "Sanlang, we have a banquet on stage this afternoon, do you want to come?"

Zhang Yue was taken aback and said, "Who is it?"

Han Zhongyan said: "They all get together on a daily basis, and you are familiar with Mr. Wen Jia Liulang among them."

Mr. Wen Liulang is Wen Jifu.After hearing the other party's name, Zhang Yue probably guessed what kind of party it was.

After Zhang Yue heard Han Zhongyan's words, he felt as if he wanted to pull himself into his circle.

Zhang Yue said: "It's better to wait until the list is released, but now I'm not in the mood."

Han Zhongyan smiled and said: "With Saburo's talent, are you still worried about this?"

Zhang Yue heard the words and asked: "Hearing Brother Han's tone, it seems that he knows how to solve the list..."

Han Zhongyan said with a smile: "I didn't say that, don't make wild guesses, my father knows, it's not my family's law to deal with me."

Zhang Yue knew that a first-class denial is an admission, which is already an invisible first-class hint.In fact, at this time, the ranking of the solution test has been released, but it is only the test results, and it cannot be finalized.The examiner will also discuss with the officials of the Imperial College to decide the final ranking.

This is the result of a multi-faceted game. The examiners are appointed by the officials and the prime minister. As for the Guozijian, they also have to get a share, but the preliminary list is already there. not difficult.

Zhang Yue said: "I don't dare to guess randomly. I keep every word of Shi Pu's words in a tight lip."

Han Zhongyan smiled and said, "I know Saburo is a reliable friend. You also know that although Bianjing is very big, there are not many people who can be invited to the stage for a drink."

Han Zhongyan's words revealed a sense of first-class superiority, but it was also a recognition of Zhang Yue.

A person who has won the lottery and has a net worth of tens of millions will never be recognized by the multi-millionaire circle.

Similarly, Zhang Yue was not recognized by Han Zhongyan and the others just because of his talent in Taixue, there must be other aspects.
