Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

After a busy day and night, Su Mu had only managed to catch his breath until now, and he hadn't thought about what today meant to him.

After Hu Ying mentioned this, she was shocked to find that today is the day when the results of the Beizhili Township Examination are released. Whether she can pass the exam and squeeze into the ruling class of the Ming Dynasty depends on this time.

In the future, whether it is to continue the imperial examination or enter the officialdom, aim at Zaifu.The best thing to do is to settle for the next best thing, never want to be famous, and to be a gentry, you have to pass this test.

Although there are scholarly scholars with fame and reputation, ordinary people can just call "Xianggong" when they see them.Only if you win the Juren, then you are the real "master", the real master.

However, seeing Hu Ying's broken right hand again, Su Mu was still a little worried: "You really don't mind?"

"It's okay, today is Zi Qiao's big day, let's go!" Hu Ying urged him instead.

Su Mu; "The doctor said that you may have a fever later, remember to cover your head with a wet towel."

Hu Ying raised her eyebrows and got angry: "Su Mu, why are you a mother-in-law? Go, go, or it will be too late. Be careful and I will hit you with a broom."

Only then did Su Mu laugh: "It's too late, it doesn't matter, as long as I win, maybe I'm not around, and my reputation will be canceled? Besides, the list was only posted at noon, so it's not too late to go back now."

He touched Hu Ying's forehead again, and said, "I'll go first, and come over at night to see how your father is going to face the saint in the palace."

When Su Mu talked about her father's entry into the palace, Hu Ying's face was slightly worried, and her lips turned white.My father himself knows best that although he is a person in Baoding, he is a mustard-like person in the city of Beijing, and he has never seen any high-ranking officials before, let alone Tianyan.

I've heard people say that there are strict rules in the palace, and if you make a wrong move or say a word properly, you will be beaten to death on the spot.

Daddy is a soldier, so I'm afraid that his speech will make Longyan, the emperor's old man, furious.

Hu Ying was worried that Su Mu could see it in her eyes, and she didn't understand, so she comforted: "You don't need to worry, I told your father before, tell him to only cry after entering the palace, and don't say a word."

"Is it okay not to say a word, and... just cry, this..." Hu Ying was stunned.

Su Mu: "Haha, it's okay, when did I miscalculate the idea for your father, let's go!"

After leaving the Baihusuo, the street was still terribly quiet. Obviously, the people had been frightened by the disturbance last night, and closed their doors one by one, for fear of suffering disaster.

Because of this, Su Mu walked on the street for a long time, but couldn't find a sedan chair or a car, so he had to walk home.

He was also anxious, it was already noon, and by the time he got home, the list would have been announced long ago.Although it is the same thing to publish the list earlier and later, but the matter is of great importance. Before seeing the list, I always feel uneasy.

Annoyed when he was walking, a carriage came quickly and stopped right in front of him, and several familiar faces protruded from it: "Zi Qiao, Zi Qiao, what a coincidence, I'm going to your house , but don’t want to run into him halfway, come up quickly!”

These people were the scholars from Baoding Prefecture who went to Tongzhou with Su Mu to take part in the provincial examination, and the leader was Mu Sheng.

Mu Sheng and the others were indeed in the capital.

Thinking of the situation when they felt ashamed to be with him after the rural examination, Su Mu felt very unhappy.

However, they were so enthusiastic today, which made Su Mu feel strange, and had a strange thought: Could it be that the list has already been published, and I have also won the Juren.Otherwise, these bird people would not be so enthusiastic about me.

At this thought, Su Mu's heart beat as if it was going to pop out of his mouth.

But on the surface, he still made a calm expression, and cupped his hands: "It turns out to be Brother Mu. At the end of the last rural examination, my younger brother originally invited you to go back to the capital together, but Brother Mu said that he would go back to Baoding. If you can't walk all the way That's all, but Zixiang was seriously ill, so Su Mu had no choice but to personally escort him home. But he didn't want to, once he returned to Qingyuan, he knew that Brother Mu and you had gone to the capital. Could it be that Su Mu is so unbearable? Walking together, embarrassing you?"

Although he didn't want to have the same knowledge as them, Su Mu still couldn't help but sarcasm.

A gentleman rewards virtue with kindness, and repays complaints directly. Su Mu can't do that when someone slaps you on the left cheek, but you stick out the right cheek. Naturally, he doesn't have any good looks towards Mu Sheng and others.

"This, this..." Not only Mu Sheng, but also several candidates from Baoding Prefecture in the car blushed, looking very embarrassed.

Seeing their expressions, Su Mu felt a burst of joy in his heart, and smiled again: "Since you brothers are not willing to go with me, why do you want to go to my house today and invite me to get in the car? Farewell, farewell, farewell!"

He cupped his hands, ignored him, and strode forward.

"Zi Qiao, you misunderstood, really misunderstood!"

Mu Sheng and others jumped out of the car one after another, followed Su Mu and kept calling his name.

Su Mu didn't look back, and said, "Brothers, what are you doing with me? Today is the day when the results of the provincial examination are released, don't you want to go to the yamen of Zhili Governor's Mansion to read the results?"

Still worried about going to the countryside for the exam, Su Mu said this on purpose.

As soon as the words were finished, a scholar called out: "Zi Qiao, I'm afraid that today's list will be published later."

Hearing that it wasn't because he won Juren, Mu Sheng and others came to look for him, Su Mu was slightly disappointed.I couldn't help but stop, and then said: "This is strange, isn't it all published in the afternoon?"

Seeing Su Mu talking to him, everyone hurriedly said: "Yes, it should be announced in the afternoon, but didn't there be riots in the city last night?"

"Yes, yes, there was a lot of chaos last night. In the early morning, all the ministries issued a report to impeach the factory to defend the country, and the court has not yet dispersed. This list must be reviewed by the Ministry of Rites before it is handed over to the governor's office to post a public notice Yes. So there is a delay."

"Zi Qiao, I only found out about this news after waiting for a long time at the Governor's Yamen in Beizhili. If you don't believe me, go there now to have a look. There are already a sea of ​​people."

……

After everyone said this, Su Mu understood.

It seems that it will take a few hours until the final list of admissions for the rural examination comes out.

Waiting is the most irritating thing, and to be honest, Su Mu is only [-]% sure whether he will be successful.

In his opinion, his test questions are not outstanding among the more than 2000 candidates. It is considered good luck to be in the top [-], and it is a burst of character to be in the top [-].

In the examination room, there were too many accidents. You are not as strong as Yang Shen, but you dare not boast.
