In the storybook, the results were announced the day after Sheng Wen finished the county exam.

Sheng Wen ranked first, the top of the county.

Seeing the name at the top of the red list, Sheng Wen's father laughed, "Son, you got the top of the county, are you happy?"

Sheng Wen's face showed a bright smile, "Happy!"

Sheng Wen's father patted his son on the shoulder and encouraged him, "Very good, the next is the prefectural exam and the academy exam. After you pass both exams, Dad will take you to the Baigongfang to buy the storage bag you want most."

"With a storage bag, you can put everything you like in it. And the scholar can extend your life by 50 years, so you can live 50 years longer than ordinary people in the future."

"In addition, if you are interested in drawing talismans, raising spirit beasts, etc., you can also add an additional minor. In this way, when you take the Juren exam, you can take both exams and then choose the one with a higher score."

"Son, work hard on the exam."

Sheng Wen nodded heavily.

So Sheng Wen prepared carefully for the following prefectural and academy examinations, and undoubtedly achieved very good results. He became a freshly baked "scholar", and even a junior top three.

So at the end of the tenth chapter of the story, Sheng Wen walked in front with his head held high, followed by his second-place classmate Chen Twelve, and his friend Gou Erniu was also in the crowd.

It was their turn to worship at the Confucius Temple.

It was the bustling street again, and the enthusiastic people again.

Sheng Wen was as excited as he was back then.

He walked slowly into the Confucius Temple under the guidance of the ritual officer. Then, according to the pre-rehearsed process, he led the other twenty people behind him to kowtow and burn incense step by step.

And recited loudly.

"Since the Spring and Autumn Period, the virtue of the most holy... the virtue is comparable to heaven... the mountain is established..."

In the dark, it seems that an old man opened his eyes.

Then the star of literature shone brightly, and a strong aura of literature descended from the sky into the Confucius Temples in various places and into the bodies of thousands of newly promoted scholars!

Amid the cheers of the people outside, Sheng Wen, who was bathed in the light, felt warm from the inside out, and could clearly feel the changes in his body.

This was a cleansing of the essence and marrow.

He became a real "scholar" and lived for 150 years.

Sheng Wen passed the examination to become a scholar in the tenth chapter of the storybook.

The day after this chapter was published was the day when the results of this county examination were announced.

Like some modern candidates, Fu Wenyu did nothing after the last exam and went home to have a good sleep. Although he built a room in his home and went in every month to take a mock exam, the real exam was still very different from the mock exam.

During the days of the exam, although he could go home after each exam, he didn't eat or sleep well, and the room was leaky. If he hadn't exercised frequently in the past three years, it wouldn't be surprising that he caught a cold.

After all, the county exam was in the cold February.

So after the exam, Fu Wenyu slept hard for two days before he felt that he had recovered.

The people around him also knew that he had a hard time taking the exam, and they were very considerate. Even though Zhang, the shopkeeper, had run out of manuscripts for "Imperial Examination Cultivation", he didn't come to urge him to write a new one.

This rest lasted until the announcement of the results.

On the day of the announcement, the three candidates, Fu Wenyu, Zou Erlang and Fu Mingliang, arrived early, accompanied by Fu Wencheng, Zou Tongsheng and Fu Minghui. As for Zhou and Fu Rong, they waited at home to avoid the news that Fu Wenyu had passed the exam and no one would receive the person who announced the good news.

Perhaps because he was too nervous, Fu Mingliang kept talking.

"Why haven't they posted it yet?"

"When Brother Minghui took the exam, it was posted at this hour."

"Could something have happened?"

But after saying this, he shook his head decisively, "No, no, I won't be so unlucky. My mother asked for me to have 'everything go well', so this exam will go smoothly."

Then he didn't know what he thought of. After looking at Fu Wenyu, he muttered: "...If reality is the same as in the storybook, it would be great. When Shengwen took the 'book' exam, the paper would automatically roll up when the time was up, making it impossible for people to write even if they wanted to. Moreover, those examiners were all powerful and could get the results in just one hour."

"Compared with them, our examiners are really too slow."

Fu Wenyu, who happened to hear it: "..."

He laughed secretly.

How can mortals compare with immortals.

At this moment, in the tribute hall in front, a man in official robes came out under the escort of the servants. And he seemed to be holding something in his hand and was walking towards the place where the list was posted.

"The people who post the list are here!"

"Hurry, hurry, hurry, go and take a look."

In an instant, the other candidates and their families who were anxiously waiting with Fu Wenyu and others rushed in that direction like a tide.

They were eager to know the ranking.

Fortunately, the officers were experienced and were used to such scenes. They skillfully placed the long sticks in their hands horizontally, formed a circle to stop people, and kept shouting loudly.

"Back off, everyone back off!"

"If you dare to bump into the adults, you will be immediately thrown into prison!"

But despite this, there are still people grabbing sticks and anxiously poking their heads, "Have the rankings come out?" "How did my Sanlang do in the exam? How many are there?" "Let me pass quickly."

Fu Mingliang was also ready to make a move. He said, "I'll go take a look," and then disappeared into the crowd.

Zou Erlang also looked forward eagerly, although he couldn't see anything. In the end, he said "I'll go and have a look too" and chased him, quickly disappearing into the crowd.

Although Fu Wenyu had confidence in himself, he couldn't help but take a few steps forward in this atmosphere.

But in the end, he didn't squeeze into the crowd. It wasn't that he couldn't get in, but someone in front of him had already called out his name.

"...Fu Wenyu!"

"The leader of the case this time is Fu Wenyu, from Fujiacun."

"Who knows? Who knows?"

Wait, he is the county chief criminal? !

Fu Wenyu, who was still a little nervous, suddenly relaxed, and he couldn't stop smiling. When he just finished the exam, he thought that if there were no accidents this time, he would be on the list, but the case was still beyond his expectation. This ranking immediately gave him the feeling that he had lived up to his original status.

At this time, Fu Mingliang's voice also sounded in the crowd.

"Uncle Wen Yu, you are the head of the case, you are the head of the county case!"

"The same county case leader as Sheng Wen!"

Village chief Fu Wencheng didn't pay attention to the second half of the sentence. He was overjoyed when he heard the word 'case head', "Wen Yu passed the case head exam?! Come on, let's go and have a look."

So a few people walked over quickly.

This road was like Moses parting the sea. Regardless of whether they knew him or not, when people around him heard that Fu Wenyu was the county's chief criminal, they all consciously made way for them to get to the bottom of the list.

Fu Wenyu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the familiar name at the top of the list.

Many congratulations came to his ears.

Fu Wencheng said happily: "Wen Yu, you are doing well!"

Zou Tongsheng said with a bit of envy: "...the chief examiner of the government examination and the college examination will not depose the county case chief unless something unexpected happens. This year happens to be the year of the government examination and the college examination. Wen Yu, you will I’m going to become a scholar.”

Fu Minghui said: "Uncle Wen Yu, congratulations."

Fu Wenyu responded one by one, "Thank you very much."

Then he searched the list again and found that Zou Erlang and Fu Mingliang were also on the list, one was twelve and the other was eighteen. There are twenty people on the list for this county examination, which means that the three of them can also participate in the government examination in April. If they also pass the government examination, they will be "tongsheng".

And only 'tongsheng' can participate in the college examination in June.

If you pass the college examination again, you will have the reputation of being a scholar and truly embark on the road to the imperial examination.

While Fu Wenyu was chatting with others, Zhou and Fu Rong were waiting absentmindedly.

Fu Rong looked at the door from time to time.

"Mom, do you think I can pass the exam this time?"

Mrs. Zhou specially wore a new suit today, and her eyes were also outside the door. After hearing what her daughter said, she replied: "It should be possible. It's not like you haven't seen your brother's hard work in studying in the past two years."

"When your father was still here, he once said that Wen Yu's talent was still above him."

Mentioning Fu Qingshan, Zhou is no longer so sad now, but still a little sad. "If your father were still here, he would definitely be overjoyed to see Wen Yu's current appearance."

As he was talking, a gong sounded outside the door.

Over the years, Fu Rong, who had already memorized the imperial examination process very well due to the influence of her ears and eyes, her eyes lit up and she stood up immediately, "Mother, mother, what sound do you hear outside?"

"Is the person bringing the good news here?!"

Mrs. Zhou also stood up and said in a trembling voice: "Quick, let's go take a look."

Before they could reach the door, the maid with a happy face had already ran in, "Madam, Madam, the eldest young master has been convicted. The eldest young master has been convicted of the county crime."

"Someone has come to announce the good news!"

Zhou was immediately overjoyed, "Hurry up and get the biggest reward!"

Someone nearby passed the exam and got a good ranking like the county's chief criminal officer.

The people who brought the good news came to the house!

The news quickly spread throughout the surrounding alleys, and the people who got the news gathered at the door of the original Li's house and now the Fu's house. Those who had children even brought their children with them, hoping to be happy.

And when Fu Wenyu came back from Gongyuan, it was even more lively.

Because a group of people who joined in the fun followed him back.

At Zhou's signal, the concierge sprinkled basket after basket of wedding candies, including a lot of copper coins. But neither Zhou nor the concierge felt distressed at all.

This is a great event!

Under Zhou's command, not only those who came to congratulate the guests could take home some wedding candies, but also the close relatives who came to congratulate the guests after receiving the news were also invited in to entertain them with tea and wine.

The atmosphere was boiling and warm.

In such an atmosphere, someone suddenly said with emotion: "This new county chief is called Fu Wenyu, right? I don't know if he is the same as the Fu Wenyu who wrote the storybook."

"You must know that in his storybook, Sheng Wen also took the county chief criminal examination."

"Hey, it's still Xiao Sanyuan!"

The man clicked his tongue and said, "If they are the same person, wouldn't it mean that the person Fu Wenyu wrote about passed the exam for the county chief of criminal cases, and he himself also passed the exam for the county chief of criminal cases?"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone said: "No way, you don't know yet, right?"

"They are the same person!"

"Didn't you pay attention to the latest Liuzhou tabloid? Yes, it was the one yesterday. It said that Mr. Fu had something to do, so the story of "Imperial Examination and Cultivation of Immortality" would be suspended for a few days."

The man who spoke earlier was stunned, obviously not expecting that his guess was correct.

After a long time, he murmured: "This is another come true."

Fu Wenyu didn't know the change of the wind direction outside until a few days later.

Although he passed the county exam, after the initial excitement, his life didn't change much for him. In order to prepare for the provincial exam with peace of mind, his family moved back to Fujia Village.

As a result, he learned about the news in the city a little slower.

And the reason why he finally knew that the outside world was saying that the story had come true again was because someone came to him with silver, saying that he hoped to "write" a good ranking for his son in the next provincial exam.

This silver was just a deposit, and he would definitely give him another generous gift after the success.

Fu Wenyu: “……???”

‘Write’ a good ranking?

Wait, is there some misunderstanding here?
