Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 402 My young master is the most powerful
Lu Jiuyuan said: "Don't worry about it. No matter who wrote this article, I will take it as No.1."

"Of course." Peng Shicheng nodded in agreement.

"I have no objection." Shi Xiu also said.

Having confirmed the case, Peng Shicheng hesitated for a moment and asked, "What about Qi Siyu? Shall we take him as No.2?"

Although the college examination is vague, it is not difficult to determine which examination paper belongs to Qi Siyu.

Because Qi Yuandao's academic views are very clear, as his grandson, Qi Siyu's ideas in the article are not only in line with Qi Yuandao's, but also quoted Qi Yuandao's views in many places.

This is also a trick that Qi Siyu did during the college exam.If Du Jinning's article didn't irritate Lu Jiuyuan and the others, Qi Siyu's little action would be very effective, allowing Lu Jiuyuan and the others to pick out his paper from the many test papers at a glance.

Shi Xiu opened his mouth, but did not speak, and looked at Lu Jiuyuan.

This time the chief examiner was Lu Jiuyuan, so it was naturally up to Lu Jiuyuan to make up his mind.

Lu Jiuyuan thought for a while, and reached out to take another test paper: "Take this test paper as the second." He pointed to Qi Siyu's, "Let's take this as the third."

As long as you don't take Qi Siyu as No.1, you will offend the Qi family greatly.If you take Qi Siyu as the second, not only will you not be able to please, but the Qi family will look down on you.It's better to do it more thoroughly and make Qi Siyu the third.Anyway, the paper that ranked second, the essays and test post poems are also very well written, no less than Qi Siyu.

In the rest of the time, after the initial review, they reviewed the test papers that had passed the review, and selected the test papers of the [-] students who were admitted, ranked them, and handed them over to the captain who led the soldiers to invigilate the exam. He ordered his deputy to unpack the original test papers, find out the one hundred copies of the papers, and copy out the names one by one.

From the moment the admission test papers were handed over to the captain, Lu Jiuyuan and the others had nothing to do, and they could go to rest.But the three of them waited in a daze, guessing that the list had been copied over there, and the three of them sent someone to ask No.1's name without hesitation.

"Tell them that No. 1's surname is Du and his name is Jinning." The captain ordered his lieutenant general, "Copy out the list and make it public."

Lu Jiuyuan and others received a message, you look at me, I look at you.

Peng Shicheng asked suspiciously, "Du Jinning? I've never heard of this name."

Shi Xiu laughed and said, "Isn't this a normal thing? A boy, no matter how talented he is, his name will not be heard by us."

Not to mention the distance, the identities of the two parties are also very different. They have never heard of Du Jinning's name, which is normal.

"I don't know how old this person is." Peng Shicheng said.

"That's right, we won't know until the exam is over. However, judging from the articles he wrote, he must be at least 30 years old." Lu Jiuyuan sighed.

Once they entered the Tribute Academy, they could not leave again. They had to wait until the papers for the second re-examination were corrected and the list of admissions for the examination was announced before they could leave.This is also to prevent them from being harassed by the outside world after the first list is released, so that they cannot judge the papers fairly.

……

Outside, Du Jinning returned to the small courtyard after the exam and took a long nap. After getting up at noon, she continued to read her book step by step, not caring about the disturbance outside.She tried her best during the exam, but as for the result, it is beyond her control, and it is useless to be anxious.

Yao Shuqi and Wang Fulai had already gone through the government test with Du Jinning. Seeing that Du Jinning was still calm like this, Jiang Bei couldn't.

He didn't dare to hang around in front of Du Jinning, so he ran out early the next morning to the gate of the Gong Yuan and walked around a few times, wanting to see if the list had been published, listened to what others were talking about, and wondered if his young master could be on the list.After shaking for a few laps and then turning back, he didn't dare to disturb Du Jinning's tranquility with what he heard, so he dragged Wang Fulai to mutter.

Wang Fulai was also worried. Although he was still stable and did not wander outside, he was also very willing to listen to all kinds of true and false news brought back by Jiangbei.

"... Now the loudest voice outside is Qi Siyu from the prefectural school. I heard that after he finished the exam, he silently showed his essay to his old man. Quite good. Who is his old man? Mr. Qi Yuandao, a great Confucianist in the world. Mr. Qi praised the article, which is a proper case. If our young master wants to get the case, I am afraid it will be suspended."

"Is Qi Siyu the head of the government's case? Our young master is the head of the government's case. No matter how good his articles are, how can he be as good as our young master? Let me tell you, our young master's articles were also written by Guan Shanzhang, Zheng Shanzhang and Mr. Yuan and the others boasted again and again. What is wrong with Mr. Qi’s boasting? Our young master’s article was also praised by Mr. Qi. At that time, Mr. Qi still wanted to take our young master as his apprentice. Only our young master is low-key and doesn’t like to put such Let's talk about it outside." Wang Fulai has a fascinated confidence in Du Jinning.

Jiang Bei was shocked: "What? What's the matter? Tell me quickly, tell me quickly, how did Mr. Qi praise our young master? He really wants to take our young master as his apprentice? Then why didn't the young master come to Fucheng this time?" How about going to pay a visit to him? If you go to pay a visit to him, maybe it will be our young master who will report this matter at this time."

Wang Fulai would brag about the last government examination.

In fact, when Du Jinning went to see Mr. Qi, he was not with him. He didn't see it with his own eyes. He only knew about it after hearing it from various people.But this did not prevent him from spreading his imagination and establishing a glorious image of Du Jinning in front of young men like Jiangbei.

"Our young master is really amazing. Mr. Qi accepted him as his apprentice, he was unmoved, even Mr. Xuezheng treated our young master differently. The examiner this time is Mr. Xuezheng, even though Qi Siyu is Mr. Qi's grandson , may not be able to fight our young master." Jiang Bei also quickly became Du Jinning's fanboy.

Wang Fulai patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "So, young man, you have to imitate the steady spirit of the young master. What do you think about Qi Si?"

"Qi Siyu." Jiang Bei hurriedly added.

"Oh, whoever he is. Let me tell you, now that he's been blown so much, if it's not him in the end, I don't know how he would be ashamed. It's better that our young master is so good, steady, neither arrogant nor rash. .If I were Master Xuezheng, I would take our young master as the head of the case."

Du Jinning just came out, and when he heard Wang Fulai's words, he couldn't help being angry and funny.

She kicked Wang Fulai lightly: "Stop bragging about it, go to the car, I'm going to Qi Mansion."

"Okay." Wang Fulai got up from the steps, and hurriedly went to harness the car.
