Three days later, they went to court again and restarted the discussion of the candidates for the chief examiner. The few parties were having a lot of fun, but Jiajing directly rejected them, causing these parties to be dumbfounded.
Then, Jiajing picked out a few of those impeachment memorials and said in public that Li Sancai and the others were simply stupid. The head examiner did not get it, but he made a mess of it.
Soon, they were all fined their salaries, and some were even transferred out of their positions, dropping a little.
In the end, Jiajing decided that the main examiner Shen Shixing, and the deputy examiners, there were no Qi, Chu, Zhe, Donglin, Jin, or other people.
Yang Tinghe, Guan Yingzhen, Zhou Yongchun, and the others were not dejected. They were more vigilant. This list clearly showed that Jiajing was very dissatisfied with them, so they did not dare to say anything.
After the court session ended, Yang Ting, Guan Yingzhen, and Zhou Yongchun walked together.
"This time, that person won again.”Yang Tinghe glanced at Yan Song in the distance.
"I didn't expect to fall. I didn't think it through.”Guan Yingzhen's eyes flashed coldly.
Zhou Yongchun looked at Yan Song coldly." Hmph, let him be smug for a while. He doesn't have the guts to be like us."”
The three people present all had their own core foundation behind them. Even if they retreated, there would be people behind them to replace them. Their foundation would not be destroyed. However, Yan Song did not have a foundation and was destined to not be able to achieve long-term success. Once he lost favor, what welcomed Yan Song would be a disaster.
However, they did not know that Yan Song had a cheat. He was using another method to strengthen himself without anyone noticing. Perhaps they would discover it many years later, but Yan Song's strength had already grown to a level that they could not match.
……
……
Outside the capital city gates, a travel-worn pedestrian walked in.
"Beijing, I'm finally here!"
Xu Wei looked at the majestic city gate and felt extremely emotional.
He was born in Zhejiang Province. His father, Xu Wei, was once the Tongzhi of Kuizhou Prefecture in Sichuan Province (now known as Chongqing City). However, he was born of a concubine and was often bullied by the sons of the two eldest sons. When Xu Wei was ten years old, the First Madam expelled his biological mother from the family. This was the typical template of a useless protagonist in a novel.
However, he was not the main character, although he was extremely intelligent. He studied at the age of six and was able to write at the age of nine. When he was in his teens, he imitated Yang Xiong's "Comedy" and wrote "Destruction", which caused a sensation in the whole city. The local gentlemen called him a child prodigy and compared him to Liu Yan and Yang Xiu. However, he failed seven or eight times in the provincial examination and even married into the Pan family to make a living.
And now, in this year's provincial examination, his luck had suddenly changed. He had won in one fell swoop and became a High Scholar. Now, he had rushed to the capital to participate in the general examination in two to three months.
" A spring breeze brings a galloping horse, and I see all the flowers in Chang 'an in one day…I hope I can do the same this year…"
Xu Wei laughed and stepped into the city.
Soon, he found a remote inn. When the owner of the inn saw that he was actually a High Scholar, he was instantly very enthusiastic. He directly reduced his rent by half and even arranged a better and quieter room for him.
"Shopkeeper, may I ask which place in the capital has more scholars?”Xu Wei had always thought highly of himself. After coming to the capital, he naturally wanted to meet scholars from all over the country.
Secondly, since he was unfamiliar with the capital, the quickest way was to find someone in the same industry. Everyone had a natural affinity with each other, so they could recite poems to improve their relationship. At the same time, they could understand the situation in the capital. It would be best if they could know who the main examiner was and analyze the main examiner's hobbies so that they could guess the questions for the exam.
The boss stroked his beard and smiled." Scholar, of course it's the Savant's Restaurant. It's for the sake of goodwill, but the expenses there are not low. It costs at least one tael of silver per time."”
The boss could estimate Xu Wei's financial ability. To be able to find an inn like this, he must not have much money on him.
As expected, Xu Wei felt a little pained. He thanked the shopkeeper and went out.
The capital was very prosperous, but Xu Wei was not surprised because Zhejiang was a rich and prosperous province. There were merchants gathered there, and the economy was developed. To some extent, it was even more prosperous than the capital. However, this year's disaster had affected Zhejiang. With prices rising and prosperity disappearing, many refugees would come from time to time. There were also many disaster victims in Zhejiang.
Xu Wei was often oppressed because he was a pseudo-novel protagonist, so he developed an extreme and cynical personality. He didn't have a long-term vision and couldn't understand the reason behind it. In the end, he attributed the reason to the treacherous official Yan Song.
There were many people like him. As long as they could not figure out the problem, they would push all the blame to Yan Song. Everyone said that Yan Song was a treacherous official, so the current situation must have been caused by the treacherous official Yan Song.
There was nothing wrong with this logic.
(Yan Song was so touched that tears filled his eyes."I'm the scapegoat for everything. F * ck you!"”)
Xu Wei asked as he walked and finally came to a restaurant.
" Wenkui Restaurant…" Xu Wei laughed. These restaurants were using such tricks to attract the candidates?
The waiter looked at Xu Wei's scholarly attire and then at his appearance. He cleverly made a judgment,""This is the High Scholar Master. Are you here to participate in the Spring Quarter Examinations?”
Xu Wei's vanity was greatly satisfied. He nodded subtly and smiled.
The waiter became more enthusiastic." High Scholar, please come in…There are a few High Scholar masters on the second floor who are rushing to the capital to take the examination. Do you want to arrange them together?"”
"Alright." Xu Wei was delighted.
Just as he was worried that he could not find an organization, they had delivered themselves to his doorstep so quickly.
When they arrived at the second floor, there were indeed a few people dressed like scholars. When they saw Xu Wei, their eyes lit up.
"Is this a student who came to participate in the general exams?”(The form of address for classmates has been around for a long time.)
"That's right."
This was a scholarly way of saying things. In fact, if it was changed to vernacular, it would become.
"Hey, brother, are you here for the exam?”
"Yeah, you guys too?"
"Come, let's have a drink!”
"Cheers!"
After some self-introductions, the two of them quickly became familiar with each other.
