Zhumen Hangui

Chapter 298 Open the gap
A gust of wind blew everywhere, rattling the door.

Su Yizhao hurried forward to close the doors and windows, feeling a little emotional in his heart, hoping that the rain would come sooner!There are so many candidates who haven't finished the exam, how can the small roof of the dormitory keep out the storm?
If the test paper is wet, then the efforts of the two days will be in vain, and you will have to wait three years to come back.

However, God did not show mercy to those frowning candidates, but after only a quarter of an hour, heavy rain fell.

When it rained cats and dogs, all the examinees were in a hurry and moved their things to the wooden board behind them.

Fortunately, the weather was not right before, and some candidates had prepared early, so that the papers would not get wet.

However, there are still a small number of candidates who just bury their heads and work hard, ignoring the weather.

These people wailed endlessly, and some candidates burst into tears when they looked at the paper with some blurred handwriting.

There was a lot of noise in the dormitory, and some candidates complained and couldn't help but began to curse.

"What are you doing? Be quiet!"

A guard immediately stepped forward and yelled at the crowd, his name was Kang Zan, he was in command, and he was a fourth-rank military officer.

He was in charge of this tour of the township examination. His expression was serious and his eyes were wide-eyed, which immediately shut up all the examinees present.

Candidates also knew that it was useless to complain at this moment. Some candidates saw that the handwriting was blurred in some places on the test paper, and they knew that they were named Luosunshan again in this rural examination, and they no longer had the mood to continue the examination.

Some candidates saw that there were few blurred places on the paper, so they filled in those words below, but their hearts were already cold.

No matter how good the article is, if such a paper is handed in, it is impossible to get a better ranking, and it is not impossible to even lose the ranking because of this.

Most candidates are glad that they collected the land quickly, but the rain will not stop for a while, and today is the last day, and time waits for no one.

Some candidates squatted on the ground, spread the papers on the bench, and planned to finish writing on their stomachs.

Su Yizhao naturally doesn't need to worry at this moment, and she is also glad that she handed in the test early.Just thinking of Su Yijue, I can't help worrying about him.

Anyway, Su Yijue treats her well, I hope the other party will not be affected!

After waiting for another half an hour, some candidates finally entered the hall.

Su Yizhao found a seat in the corner to rest, and when he saw the examinee come in, he carefully scrutinized the other's expression.

In fact, there is no need to look at it, the depression and annoyance of the examinee have already been written on his face.

"It's over! It's over!" the examinee murmured, shaking his head and sighing, "I'm sure I won't pass this time."

Su Yizhao kept silent, they were not familiar with each other, she would not go forward to comfort them, and the other party probably did not want her comfort at this time.

The number of examinees who came in gradually increased, and the hall became much more noisy.

Some candidates are glad that they have collected the land quickly, and are discussing the answers with other candidates at the moment.

However, most of the people in the hall were worried, and there were more voices of comfort than discussion.

"There are three rounds in total! Even if you fail this round, if you work harder in the next two rounds, you may not fail!"

Su Yizhao listened to a candidate next to him persuading his classmate, and began to look around.

"Fifth brother! Here!" Su Yizhao waved quickly when he saw Su Yijue coming in.

"Xiaoqi!" Su Yijue looked as usual, and strode towards Su Yizhao.

"Fifth brother finished writing?" Su Yizhao saw that the other party looked good, so he knew that Su Yijue should be on guard, after all, Su Yijue was always cautious.

"The paper wasn't wet, but it was inconvenient to write later, and people's hearts fluttered, so it was inevitable that it would be affected."

Su Yijue sat down on the wooden bed beside Su Yizhao, smiled at her and said, "It's a good thing you handed in the paper early!"

Su Yizhao took a deep look at him and fell silent for a while.

How does she feel that Su Yijue is sincere towards her fake brother?But on second thought, maybe it's because of family values?

There were several acquaintances who passed the rural examination this time, and everyone greeted each other, and Su Yizhao saw Wansheng.

Wan Sheng was the poor scholar they met on the way back to Beiyuan Mansion last time.

After exchanging a few words with Wansheng, seeing that Wansheng's mood is not high, and hearing that Wansheng's performance is not as good as usual, Su Yizhao stopped talking.

Although Su Yizhao is well-known now, she is quite low-key, so not many candidates have seen her.

However, after a few familiar candidates greeted her, even if she wanted to keep a low profile, she couldn't.

Because she was the first to hand in the paper, everyone was very impressed with her.

After knowing that she was Su Yizhao, everyone looked at her from time to time, and then started whispering.

They are all in the same hall, Su Yizhao will inevitably hear some.

There are envy and jealousy, and there are also worship and admiration, but most of them are watching the show.

The reason why I watched a good show was because of Meng Lingxi.

There were more than 5000 candidates this time, so it was impossible to have only one rest hall, and Meng Lingxi rested elsewhere.

There were so many people, Su Yizhao hadn't seen Meng Lingxi until now, but it didn't prevent his name from always being heard in her ears.

"I heard that two years ago, Grand Tutor Zhu intended to accept Meng Lingxi as his disciple. Unexpectedly, Lord Chief Assistant suddenly said that he had intended to accept him as a disciple earlier, which made Taifu Zhu regret it!" A candidate said enviously.

"That's right! Mr. Shoufu has many disciples, and he is also a scholar of the Zhongji Palace, and he was born as the number one scholar. It is really a blessing to be taught by him!"

A candidate next to him smacked his lips enviously, and then glanced at Su Yizhao. Everyone could see the expression in his eyes.

It's nothing more than you, Su Yizhao, no matter how talented you are, so what?Taifu and Shoufu are robbing people, but you are not the ones robbing.

Now his teacher is the chief assistant of the court, but your teacher is just a teacher of the academy.

Since two years ago, the gap between the two of you has widened!
Everyone looked at Su Yizhao after hearing the words, with gloating and regret in their eyes, but most of them were envious.

Su Yizhao still looked normal, turning a deaf ear to these words.

However, the Meng family's actions surprised her. She never expected that the chief assistant would value Meng Lingxi so much that he would personally ask for people, and even offended the emperor and the Tai Tuo for this.

She heard from her grandfather that for Meng Lingxi, Shoufu gave up a little bit of power.

Su Yizhao knew that this would be a dilemma for the Meng family when this situation was set up.

In order to fulfill this lie, Zhu Yue had no choice but to write a letter to Meng Lingxi, and even sent his juniors to the Handan Mansion to pick him up in person.

It's just that before Zhu's family set off, Lord Shoufu went to meet with the emperor himself.

It was announced that Lord Shoufu had already planned to accept Meng Lingxi as his personal disciple, but it had not been announced in the future. Originally, he wanted to wait until he was admitted as a scholar before holding the ceremony of apprenticeship.

But this incident refuted Taifu Zhu's face, that is, refuted the emperor's face.

Taifu Zhu used this incident to achieve his goal.
