Chapter 145 The Thirteen Sons of Oasis

After finishing the college exam, Shen Yi's scientific exam came to an end temporarily.

Although this year is the year of the rural examination, the rural examination will be at least September or October, and it is still in early March, and there is still more than half a year before the rural examination.

Moreover, the prerequisite for Shen Yi to participate in the provincial examination is to pass the county examination. If he fails the college examination, he can only wait for the next courtyard examination, so the rural examination will be at least three years away.

Fortunately, Shen felt that he performed well in the hospital examination this time, and with what Zhang Jian said to him earlier, he was still sure that he was a scholar, so he didn't feel too heavy.

After the college examination, Shen Yi did not leave the examination room immediately, but waited for a while at the entrance of the examination room. After the three-way gong sounded, the candidates in the examination room came out one after another. Shen Yi searched for a while among the crowd, and found Ganquan Academy. Chen Changming, the chief trial case of the government.

Shen Yi hurried up, reached out and patted Chen Changming's shoulder, and said with a smile, "Brother Changming."

Chen Changming just came out of the examination room at this moment, and he was still in a daze. He was shocked by Shen Yi's slap, and he was relieved when he turned around to see Shen Yi, and smiled wryly at Shen Yi: "Junior Brother Shen, You startled me."

Shen Yi smiled at Chen Changming, and said: "When we were in Jiangdu earlier, we agreed to get together after we arrived in Jiankang, but after we arrived in Jiankang, we couldn't see anyone. Brother, I forgot my classmates."

"If you forget, no one can forget you."

Although Chen Changming's character is a bit dull, he is not stupid, but very smart. He looked at Shen Yi, and said with a soft smile: "Brother Shen's poem titled Moving Jiankang, even reached Tianting and was commended by His Majesty. He is a big celebrity in Jiankang, how can he forget Junior Brother Shen?"

"Just a fluke."

Shen Yi let out a long breath, and squeezed out a smile: "I have been depressed for two months in Jiankang, and I just study and read books every day. Now that the college exam is finally over, let's wait for the students from the college and find a place to get together ?”

Jianghu is not fighting and killing, but human beings.

If you want to mix in the arena, you must have communication and a circle of friends, and the imperial court is a big arena, and this is even more so if you want to gain a foothold in the imperial court.

Although the seventeen people who came out of Ganquan Academy this year may not all become officials in the future, and may not even be able to pass the college examination this year as a scholar, but since they are in the same class and subject, they still have to make friends.

After all, Shen Yi and them are all classmates of Ganquan Academy's entrance examination class, and they are born with political commonality. As long as they enter the officialdom in the future, they will naturally form a group.

The most typical example is Lu Anshi Lu Master, and the current household servant Zhao Changping.

These two people are classmates in the same year.

After hearing Shen Yi's words, Chen Changming was also a little moved. He looked at Shen Yi and said with a smile: "Of course there is no problem, but it's already sunset. When they all come out, the sky must be completely dark. I'm afraid it's not easy to find a place." Have a meal."

Shen Yi patted his chest and said, "Don't worry about this, I'll just find a place."

After the two reached a consensus, they searched for the students from Ganquan Academy at the entrance of the examination room together. It took half an hour. Because there were too many people at the entrance of the examination room, Shen Yi and Chen Changming only found fourteen of them from Ganquan Academy. Candidates for the college entrance examination, after communication, one of them had to go home, so there were only thirteen people left to eat with Shen Yi.

At this moment, Shen was already familiar with Jiankang City, so when night fell, under the leadership of Shen Yi, thirteen people sat down on the second floor of a restaurant by the Qinhuai River.

After night fell, the Qinhuai River was the busiest place in Jiankang City, and Shen Yi had been here for about half a month, so he was relatively familiar with it.

For example, the Zuiyuelou he found.

Theoretically speaking, this is a serious restaurant, and its regular business is only dinner and drinking. However, it is too close to the Qinhuai River, and it is also too close to the painted boats on the Qinhuai River, so there are still some unconventional "outsourcing businesses".

For example, if you are eating here, you can ask the store owner to go to the Qinhuai River, or find a girl from the nearby Red Pavilion Cuilou to accompany you for a drink, or you can bring the girl here to drink.

This kind of outsourced "pure" restaurant is rare on the banks of the Qinhuai River, because most of the nearby restaurants have their own business and do not need to be outsourced.

And Shen Yi did not bring them here to ask the students to take care of them. In fact, at this point in time, he didn't know where there was a decent restaurant in Jiankang City.

After more than a dozen people sat down on the second floor of Zuiyue Building, Shen Yi, who was the initiator of the event, held up his wine glass, toasted everyone, and said with a smile: "The gentlemen here are almost all Shen Yi's seniors, based on their age. Originally, as a junior, I shouldn’t be in the limelight, but I was lucky enough to make a small fortune in Jiankang City some time ago, so for today’s meal, I’ll let my younger brother pretend to be the big one, so please seniors.”

Others in Jiankang City didn't know that "Jiangdu Shen Yi" tested the water in the imperial decree some time ago, but almost everyone here knew that Shen Yi was awarded a hundred gold by the emperor for a poem some time ago.

In this era, Baijin is already considered a windfall for ordinary people, and it is reasonable and reasonable to make a fortune and treat guests.

And when Shen Yi mentioned this matter in front of everyone, he also repeatedly mentioned the matter that he was rewarded by the emperor, so...

Although Shen Yi is not very old, he can be the "leader" of this year's Ganquan candidates, or the speaker.

Of course, this kind of talker is not without prerequisites, and the prerequisite is that the test scores are good.

Don't look at Shen Yi's limelight now, but if he fails the college entrance examination or the rural examination, few of the dozen or so people present will buy him in the future.

After all, for scholars in this era, the results of the scientific examination are the most important thing, and everything else is crooked.

What Shen Yi said was quite decent, others stood up one after another, raised their glasses to Shen Yi, and said with a smile: "Brother Shen's poems have been heard by the heavens, and he has been rewarded and has been famous in Jiankang. , just be cheeky and give Junior Brother Shen a meal."

In addition to these joking voices, there were also some students from poor families who were slightly relieved.

Because this restaurant is not cheap at first glance.

Even if a dozen people share it equally, it is not a small expense for those with limited conditions.

At first, some people were still worried about this, but after hearing that Shen Yi wanted to treat guests, the doubts naturally disappeared.

So, that night, in the private room on the second floor of Zuiyue Building, more than a dozen young people between the ages of sixteen and seventeen to their twenties exchanged cups and toasted each other.

Most of these young people are natives of Jiangdu.

Most of them are participating in the hospital examination for the first time and coming to Jiankang capital for the first time.

And at this inconspicuous "classmate reunion", someone Shen Yishen undoubtedly made a big splash and became the most dazzling one among these people.

Because they are all students, they can't hold too much alcohol. After two or three rounds of drinking, most of them are swaying and almost unable to stand still.

Shen Yi stood up from the chair, raised his wine glass high, and smiled heartily: "Brothers, the Seven Sons of Ganquan were famous for Jiankang 15 years ago, now it's my turn to wait!"

These words, for these young scholars who are determined to make scientific research, can be said to be blood boiling.

Everyone stood up one after another and clinked glasses with Shen Yi, full of pride.

Someone raised his head and drank it all, shouting: "This year, I will be the thirteen sons of Ganquan!"

Chen Changming, the head of the government's trial case, also drank a lot of meat and vegetables. He stood up and had a drink with Shen Yi, his eyes were already a little dazed.

"Junior Brother Shen, for the sake of the spring breeze, I don't know how to change my face, and I will offer you a cup for..."

Shen Yi was still sober at the moment, he raised his glass and touched Chen Changming.

"After listening to my brother's words, I remembered another line of poetry."

Chen Changming drank it down in one gulp, looked at Shen Yi, and asked in a daze, "What poem?"

"The spring breeze turns green on the south bank of the river."

Shen Yi looked to the north, raised his head and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

"When will the bright moon shine on me..."
