The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 460 Can't Participate in the Palace Examination?

Ming Mo was a little puzzled, who is Miss Hua Lian?Could it be the young master's best friend in Tianxiang Pavilion?
"I haven't been here."

Gu Chengyu guessed that Hua Lian might have pawned the jade pendant. After all, the quality of the jade pendant looks good. As long as it is pawned for silver, it is enough to redeem Hua Lian, and there will be leftover silver to live on.

He didn't mind that Hua Lian didn't come to Mingmo for help.Since he gave the jade pendant, he didn't expect to get it back, but just thanked her for coming to see him in the prison.Being able to save a girl from the sea of ​​suffering is a merit for oneself.

The next day, Gu Chengyu got up early.After counting the time when Yin Kun will go to court, he prepared rich gifts and went to Yin's mansion.

Yin Kun scanned Gu Chengyu from top to bottom, and saw that he was full of energy and not tired.Only then did he nod his head, thinking that his up and down control had played a role.

"It's lucky this time. Fortunately, I didn't suffer much. But you gave Hu Maoshen those criminal evidences? Otherwise, he couldn't have collected so much in such a short period of time."

Gu Chengyu smiled, "We have already discussed the countermeasures before, and it is not difficult to collect witnesses and confessions. You also know that I have a lot of good skills under my hands. However, this time, I would like to thank you, senior brother, for taking care of me. , Chengyu is grateful for the kindness of senior brother."

"You and my senior brother, don't say these outrageous things. As long as people are fine, what's the point of spending some money? I have earned a lot of money for nothing by relying on your restaurant in the past two years. Your little money is compared with the money in the restaurant. Get up, it's nothing."

Gu Chengyu also knew that it would be too extravagant to talk about it any further, and he would keep this kindness in his heart and find an opportunity to repay it later.

Ever since he met senior brother, he has taken care of himself a lot.It's not like he doesn't know that his own restaurant has saved a lot of trouble under the name of the big brother.

"Eldest senior brother, I heard that you went to the palace yesterday and said that the emperor was ill, so I don't know what's going on now?"

"It's not a serious illness. The imperial doctor said that the emperor has a lot of things to do every day. He doesn't listen to advice and doesn't have a good rest. He is very angry and has some stagnation in his chest. Don't get angry these few days, keep your mind calm, and you will be cured in two days."

In fact, Yin Kun also knew that it was due to the emperor's advanced age.

Gu Chengyu thought about it, and was afraid that he would be offended by the eldest prince.

Sitting behind the desk, Yin Kun thought of the palace examination to come.

"Although you have been cleared of the suspicion this time, you have been imprisoned, which will always hinder your reputation. If you want to participate in the palace examination, you have to go through it again."

Gu Chengyu was a little surprised, he was obviously innocent, and his ranking in the test was also released, why can't he still participate in the palace test?What about the others?
"Since you've been involved, those officials have their own words. Before the palace examination, they went through a prison. Maybe they will ask the emperor to re-draw the ranking of this examination."

In any case, it was also because of the fraud case that he was imprisoned, and scholars valued reputation the most.Afterwards, it is good not to lose fame.I still want to take part in the imperial examination, I'm afraid it will be difficult.

Those ministers are used to meeting with each other, why don't they take advantage of this opportunity to give the promising candidates a good ranking?

That's why Yin Kun thought about doing something. As long as he is not expelled, even if the emperor doesn't give him a good ranking, with Gu Chengyu's talent and learning, a Jinshi will never be able to escape.

Only then did Gu Chengyu feel that he had taken it for granted, this is not the previous life, if you are innocent, you will be innocent.As long as you go to prison, even if you are innocent, you will be stained.

Unless you are already an official of the imperial court, you can only stop at juren.

Gu Chengyu thought about it, didn't Tang Bohu be inexplicably involved in the fraud case in his previous life?In the end, he failed to take the exam. Even though he was famous, he could only hate Jiuquan in the end.

Since Yin Kun said that there is a way, just to spend some money, of course he will not be reluctant.Compared with fame and fame, what is silver?
"I'm going to bother you about this matter, senior brother. Just tell me how much money you need."

Gu Chengyu was not worried that Yin Kun would take the opportunity to embezzle his money. If Yin Kun had such a character, he would not take care of him when he was in prison.

"It won't cost much money, let's talk about it later!"

Yin Kun will not be polite to Gu Chengyu either, he has a meager salary, except for his wife's dowry, only the profits of Gu Chengyu's restaurant subsidizes his family, so he can live a more comfortable life.

Gu Chengyu has money, and the money he manages is nothing to him.

His restaurant is making a lot of money after staying in it, and others have long been jealous.This is tantamount to a little doll holding a gold ingot and swaggering through the market, pregnant with a crime!

"Your restaurant must be restrained, so as not to make people jealous."

Yin Kun recalled that some time ago, the restaurant launched a new menu, which caused another trend in the capital.It is him who also thinks the dishes in the restaurant are novel and delicious, and sometimes he goes to the restaurant for a tooth-tasting festival.

Gu Chengyu smiled wryly when he heard the words, "I'm still pointing to the money of the restaurant to live! People want to come to my restaurant to eat and drink, I can't drive them out, can I?"

Gu Chengyu knew that he was not a member of an aristocratic family, and his foundation was too shallow. If those aristocratic families were backed by elders, how dare these people have crooked ideas?
Yin Kun thought of the teacher who said he would come to the capital, "Calculating the time, teacher will arrive in the capital in a few days, right?"

In the past two days, Gu Chengyu was so busy with the matter of cheating that he almost forgot about it.

"About another five days or so." Gu Chengyu did the math, and now it's March [-]th, the teacher and the others went to Beijing on the eighth day of March, and they should be able to arrive in the capital in five days at the latest.

"I can't hide what happened this time from the teacher. Fortunately, you have already left the cell. Otherwise, the teacher may be in a hurry. As for your third senior brother. Since you have come out, then your second and third senior brothers will also go there. Courtesy is still required. After your accident, Wu An also spent money to take care of it for you. If you go to the Wu Mansion tomorrow, you should thank him well. By the way, Mr. Jiang has also taken care of it for you, so you can’t miss him too. .”

Yin Kun was pleased that Wu An could help Gu Chengyu this time.The relationship between their brothers and sisters has not been as good as before since the teacher became an official.In the past, we often met at the teacher's mansion, but now that the teacher is not in the capital, there is less communication between us.

However, he thought of He Jisheng again.Unexpectedly, He Jisheng avoided seeing him, which made him puzzled.When He Jisheng was a junior, they always took good care of him, but they didn't expect that now that something happened to Gu Chengyu, he would choose to be wise and protect himself.

Although Gu Chengyu didn't see them often when he was in Jingyuan Mansion, naturally he didn't have much affection.But since I came to the capital, I have often come to visit my brothers' homes. It has been two or three years, and everyone has been familiar with it for a long time.

No wonder the teacher refused to promise his junior sister to He Jisheng, maybe he had already seen through He Jisheng's character?Because of this, He Jisheng probably hated his teacher too.

"It's natural, I must go to their house tomorrow to thank you." Gu Chengyu didn't expect Jiang Mingyuan to also contribute, so naturally he should be grateful.
