Jinyi champion

Chapter 444
Inside the inn.

Crowded.

Everyone who knew him or not came to say hello, and seemed to be very familiar with Zhu Hao.

People from the Huguang Chamber of Commerce brought gifts over one after another. In Daming Huguang, after all, it belongs to the place where "the mountains are high and the emperor is far away". Most of the merchants who do business in the capital have a local complex. "Genius" is very concerned, and the gift is so generous.

The official messenger who announced the good news hung big red silk flowers on Zhu Hao's body, pretending to be surprised: "How can we say that the Wenqu star descended to earth? Look at this talented person, he is really young and promising, and he will be the minister in the future."

"Hang up wedding silk for Mr. Zhu..."

Red silks and satins were soon hung up outside the inn, before someone came to set off firecrackers, but obviously the capital is quite taboo about gunpowder products, and on such a non-festive day, no one prepared firecrackers even if they came to announce the good news.

Jiang Lun had a big opinion: "Why don't you set off a few firecrackers to suppress evil spirits on this big day?"

The yamen who announced the good news smiled and said: "This master is right, but as long as Huiyuan Gong is around, all evil spirits will be suppressed. Look at this age...he is still a boy who wards off evil."

"Hahaha……"

Everyone around is laughing.

Zhu Si got angry after hearing this for a while, and asked you to announce the good news, why did you even say a joke?Why didn't you say that the stars of Wenqu descended to earth?But make fun of others as children?

Perhaps he is also a child, and at the same age as Zhu Hao, Zhu Si is somewhat taboo about calling him "boy".

But the people next to him heard it and felt that it made sense. It is not easy for a child who is still a young man to pass the exam, and this side actually took the test and became a member, saying that a boy "suppresses demons and wards off evil spirits". With a hint of meaning in it, he just came here to ask Zhu Hao for something close to him, and hung it on his door when he went home, perhaps more spiritual than painting a Zhong Kui.

"Clap clap clap..."

Just as I was talking here, the sound of firecrackers outside was really set off.

It wasn't arranged by Zhu Hao, nor by the Xingwang Mansion or the officials who announced the good news, but by the people of Huguang Guild Hall who urgently raised money to arrange it.

Afterwards, Zhu Hao didn’t need to take out the rewarded silver. People from the Huguang Chamber of Commerce were eager to stuff the money, for fear that Zhu Hao would not accept it. The money boxes were carried inside one box after another. Although they were not silver, they were also boxes of copper coins. , and distributed it to the people watching the excitement around, many of them were businessmen traveling between the capital and Anlu, and they were regarded as fellow villagers who came to enjoy the festival.

The shopkeeper of the inn found a large red paper, wrote the word "Hui Yuan" on it, and hung it in front of his door to reflect the extraordinaryness of his inn.

It would be even more beautiful if there is a number one scholar, but the number one scholar can be met but not sought. Besides, everyone knows that the emperor is not in the capital now, and most of the imperial examinations will not be held on time. An inn can produce a member, and someone will come to the capital to take the exam in the future. In particular, candidates from all over the country who are taking the exam will probably get together and go to his inn to get a good fortune.

……

……

Zhu Haoben is the main character.

But in this celebration, he was reduced to a supporting role. Jiang Lun looked extremely excited, rushing ahead of everything. Sometimes Tang Yin wanted to join in the fun but was blocked back.

When Lu Song finished the wedding ceremony with Zhang Cong, he rushed over after hearing the news, and seeing the crowd gathered outside the inn, he couldn't believe that there were so many people in Beijing in the land of Huguang.

"Mr. Zhu, congratulations to the high school..."

Seeing Zhu Hao standing aside, Lu Song hurried over to congratulate him.

Zhu Hao smiled and nodded.

Lu Song turned his head to see Jiang Lun making jokes with the members of the chamber of commerce, and seeing Zhu Si also staring at him as a bamboo pole, very curious.

Didn't Zhu Hao win Huiyuan?

Why does the excitement here seem to have nothing to do with it?

Tang Yin came out and said: "Alright, alright, everyone's kindness is appreciated, let's go back first."

Tang Yin was afraid that Jiang Lun would complicate the situation. Zhu Hao should try his best not to let people know about his relationship with the Xing Palace when he won the Huiyuan test. Jiang Lun seemed to make up his mind to publicize it. Yuan is very beautiful, which makes Xing Wangfu a lot of color, but never considers the overall strategy.

"Congratulations to Xiaohui Yuangong, I wish you success in the imperial examination and being the number one scholar... I heard that you are still in the Huguang Township Examination Jieyuan, that is Sanyuan Jidi. It has been a long time since a person like you appeared in Ming Dynasty."

"congratulations."

Local people from Huguang also came to congratulate.

These people are more purposeful, not only for building relationships, but also paving the way for future officials to enter the court. Although most of them failed the exam this time, there were still tributes from the same department who came to say hello, among them There was Zhou Lang from Jinshui County, Huangzhou Prefecture, who ranked fifth in the previous happy report.

Zhu Hao said hello to Zhou Lang, it was a meeting between Huguang local Xinke Scholars. Afterwards, the two people who entered the court would be the "Xiangdang", and the people around them moved out of the way.

Zhou Lang originally wanted to invite Zhu Hao to sit down, but seeing that the group of people around Zhu Hao did not seem to be from ordinary people, he felt that Zhu Hao had a government background, so he said hello and did not have any in-depth conversations, and left in a hurry.

"Zhu Hao, you have passed the Huiyuan exam. Is the next step going to be the champion?"

Zhu Si came over and asked.

At this moment, he suddenly lost the previous excitement. He probably felt that this was the glory of others, and no matter how lively it was, it was not his own. Now he was in a foreign land... unconsciously, he felt a little bit disappointed, and then thought of Zhu Hao if he passed the exam. The number one scholar will be valued by the court in the future, and he may be alienated from himself. He is emotional, so he is naturally a little depressed.

Zhu Hao whispered: "Now that His Majesty is not in the capital, it is hard to say when the general examination will be held after the palace examination is over...everything will be business as usual."

"Yes, yes, business as usual!"

Jiang Lun sent away the officials who announced the good news and the merchants who came to congratulate, and ran over and said, "It's time to celebrate well, why don't we hold a banquet here, let people come over and eat casually?"

Tang Yin reminded: "Keep a low profile, don't be too ostentatious!"

Zhu Haodao: "Mr. Tang is right, the prince is in danger in the capital, it's better to be cautious... We just need to know what the situation is."

Jiang Lun still couldn't hide his joy, and he seemed the happiest here: "By the way, Mr. Zhu, isn't there a Qionglin Banquet? When will you attend?"

Tang Yin glared at him unhappily: "Then we have to wait for the titles on the gold list, now we are just taking the examination for Huiyuan, even if there is no problem with Jinshi, it doesn't mean that he can be ranked first, Zhu Hao needs to prepare carefully for the exam..."

The "Qionglin Banquet" in Ming Dynasty is called "Enrong Banquet". After the palace examination is over, the Ministry of Rites will hold a banquet for the new scholars and inner and outer curtain examiners. It is too early to say these things at this time.

Jiang Lun sighed: "I usually watch a lot of operas, so don't be surprised! Then I wish Mr. Zhu a champion again!"

"There are too many people here, let's talk about it in another place, let's go to Mr. Tang's residence..."

Zhu Hao proposed.

As soon as Zhu Si heard that he could visit the place where Tang Yin lived, his little eyes regained their brilliance, and he said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, let's go right away."

Jiang Lun still felt dissatisfied: "I need to hold a banquet to treat our Mr. Zhu well. I think Jiaofang is very good..."

Lu Song reminded: "Grandpa Jiang, our people have just caused trouble in the Jiaofang Division. It is better to stay away from the Jiaofang Division in the recent period."

"Hahaha……"

Jiang Lun didn't feel annoyed, just smiled and looked like an optimist. He was the one who talked the most and had the loudest voice in the audience.

The group left the inn and went to the residence that Su Xigui had arranged for Tang Yin.

……

……

Will try out the list that day.

Zhu Wanquan originally went to watch the announcement with his friends, but because it was a little late when they arrived, no one had reserved a seat beforehand, and there were so many candidates around, which made Zhu Wanquan feel ashamed, and finally just listened to the good news on the street for a while, and after three After a hundred people, I went home first.

He left because a friend said to him: "It's not easy for a ten-year-old student to pass the exam. A teenage child still wants to pass the Jinshi exam? Do you really think I'm incompetent as a Ming scholar?"

The implication is that if you wait for your nephew's results, you can go back to each house as soon as possible.

And now that the test release is almost over, and I haven't heard your nephew's name, what are you still expecting here?In the top five?

Could it be that there are so many talents in the future, why is it not as good as a ten-year-old kid in your family?

Zhu Wanquan was right when he thought about it.

The eldest nephew Zhu Hao was able to pass the exam, which made the Zhu family tend to change from a family of martial arts to a family of civil servants. Then, thinking about what his elder brother said today, Zhu Hao is not his mother’s grandson. When Zhu Hao passed the exam, the old lady was already angry Attacking the heart, if he really passed the Jinshi exam...won't he spurt blood on the spot?

"I don't know what father thinks about this!"

Zhu Wanquan thought of his father Zhu Mingshan.

If it is said that his third brother may not be from the same mother as him, then he is his father's child after all, right?Otherwise, why can you enter Zhu's house?Could it be adoption?For example, the father was the son of Paize?But that way there is no need to hide for so many years, what is there to hide when people are dead?
If the old lady wasn't jealous, she probably wouldn't be so angry, right?

Thinking about his thoughts, he slowly walked back to his door.

But I saw two government carriages parked at the intersection.

Just as he was thinking about what was going to happen, a few members of Jin Yiwei ran towards him in the distance, followed by a group of neighbors who joined in the fun.

"What are you doing?"

Zhu Wanquan didn't go forward to greet him, but the servants of the Zhu family stopped the person first.

A brocade guard in a flying fish suit came out: "This is Zhu Qianhu's residence in the capital, right? I heard that the undergraduate exams are from your residence, so I came here to congratulate you!"

After all, Zhu Hao is different from ordinary people from Huguang.

The Zhu family's ancestral home is not in Anlu, but only in Si. As the home of the Jinyiwei, the Zhu family is a little bit out of power in the capital, but the Jinyiwei colleagues and officials in the government heard that the Zhu family has a Huiyuan, so why don't you hurry over here? For a good start?

As for the conflicts within the Zhu family?
No matter how many conflicts there were, would anyone have thought that the Zhu family would treat Zhu Hao so badly?
Zhu Wanquan asked in surprise: "Did you... hear it wrong? Is there a Huiyuan in this house?"

Zhu Wanquan couldn't believe it.

It's impossible to get a Jinshi, and you will directly try for the first place?play?

The guard in Jinyi smiled and said, "This is Mr. Zhu Hao Zhu, right? You can't hide your aura at first glance. I'm waiting to congratulate you! There are also some colleagues in the guard in Jinyi who will come to congratulate you... why don't you hurry home With a word of communication, the house will be lively first?"
