He Kun ignored him and picked up his brush to continue answering the questions.
The young official stood behind He Kun and did not leave.
He stood behind the other examinees and left as soon as he saw them.
"Eh?"
After standing behind He Kun for nearly fifteen minutes, the young official finally couldn't help but let out a surprised cry.
He was shocked by He Kun's calligraphy.
Ever since he was young, he had only seen a few people whose calligraphy was better than He Kun's. Moreover, these people had all passed away. They were all famous calligraphy masters who had left their names in history.
Other than that, the examinee before him had also taken a different approach in analyzing the questions on the examination paper. It was different from others, but it also made people's eyes light up.
"What's your name?"
Then, the young official asked He Kun.
"Milord, this commoner and Kun greet Milord.”
He Kun replied in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
At the same time, he was also slightly puzzled. The young official in front of him was wearing the clothes of a second-grade official of the imperial court, but from the young man's childish facial features and his younger age, it was impossible for him to become a second-grade official.
He Kun thought to himself. Who in Phoenix Feather could be a second-grade official, yet act like one? Who could walk through the examination hall without being stopped, and who was very young?
Thinking about it carefully, even those young princes and Baylors did not have such privileges.
"Could it be?"
He Kun's pupils suddenly constricted. He thought of a person, a person who could not possibly be here…
That person was the current emperor, Da Qian.
He Kun quickly sorted out his emotions and continued answering the questions calmly. So what if the person behind him was Da Qian?
Now, he was still an ordinary High Scholar who did not have any official position and was rushing to the capital to take the exam.
It was still the big rice worm that would be favored by Great Qian in the future. Great Qian did not even know him.
Hearing He Kun's reply, Da Qian looked at Wu Shu, the chief eunuch who had followed him and stood behind him.
It was rumored that in the early years of Emperor Yongzheng, when he was fighting for the throne with his brother, he established an intelligence organization similar to the Ming Dynasty's Jinyiwei, the Sticky Rod Office.
It was used to monitor the officials and gather intelligence.
When Da Qian took over the throne from his father, it was only natural that they had control of this intelligence organization.
Other than being the chief eunuch, Wu Shulai was also responsible for sorting out the information collected by the Sticky Rod Office so that he could report it to Great Qian when it was needed.
Seeing Da Qian looking at him, Wu Shulai immediately understood. He placed his head beside Da Qian's ear and covered his voice with his hand. He said softly,"
"Your Majesty, this examinee is indeed called He Kun. His father is the Fujian Vice General Chang Bao, and his knowledge and literary talent are extremely stunning. Last night, at the Spring Breeze Courtyard's famous prostitute Chen Hongyan's poetry recital, he defeated the number one talent of Shanxi, Yu Minzhong, the number one talent of Guangdong, and one of the four great talents of Jiangnan, Mu Wenfu, and obtained the opportunity to chat with Chen Hongyan at night. Furthermore, he wrote three famous poems in a row, shocking the world with one brilliant feat and becoming famous throughout the entire Imperial City.”
"There are already many people who call He Kun the number one talent in Fujian.”
"I'm afraid it won't be long before He Kun becomes famous throughout Phoenix Feather.”
Da Qian's eyes lit up when he heard that. He asked Wu Shulai,""In that case, He Kun is from the Gao clan?”
Wu Shulai nodded." That's right, Your Majesty. He Kun is indeed from the Gao clan."”
Da Qian couldn't help but say,"I didn't expect such a talent to appear in the Gao tribe." Not only was he proficient in poetry, but his calligraphy was also rare in the world. With his knowledge and literary talent, he was probably the top scorer of this year's imperial examination.”
Wu Shulai quickly remembered He Kun's name and prepared to befriend him when he had the time.
The two of them deliberately avoided He Kun when they spoke.
Da Qian stood behind He Kun and watched him answer the questions. It was not until dusk that they turned around and left.
He Kun continued to answer the questions and finished them the next day.
"Examiner! I want to hand in my paper in advance."
He Kun shouted when he saw the deputy examiner walking past him.
"After you finish the exam papers, continue to check them. The imperial examination is not allowed to hand in the papers in advance.”
The deputy examiner said coldly.
He Kun had no choice but to stay in the examination hall for three days.
Three days later, the first exam was over.
He Kun walked out of the examination hall together with the team of candidates participating in the general examination.
The second exam would be held tomorrow.
Just as He Kun was hesitating where he should stay for the day, he suddenly saw a familiar figure in the crowd.
"Hey, Brother Fatty!"
He Kun immediately called out.
Hearing someone call him, Cao Rui stopped in his tracks and turned his head. When he saw that the person calling him was He Kun, Cao Rui's chubby face immediately forced out a smile.
"So it's Young Master He Kun."
The current situation was different from the past. He Kun had already gone from an ordinary High Scholar to a famous scholar in the capital. Cao Rui did not dare to be negligent and could not help but cup his hands and smile.
"Brother Fatty, you're treating me like an outsider. Why are you calling me Young Master? All the people in the world are brothers.”
He Kun immediately walked up to Fatty and called him brother, patting Fatty's shoulder.
He would never admit that he and this fatty called each other brothers because he did not have any money on him to stay in the hotel and eat. Moreover, his pride as a man did not allow him to go and ask Chen Hongyan for help.
Tonight, whether he would sleep on the streets or stay in an inn would depend on this fatty.
"Brother He!"
The fatty couldn't stand He Kun's enthusiasm and could only call out.
"Brother Fatty, since you and I are brothers, shouldn't you treat me to a meal?”
He Kun said with a smile.
"I think so!"
Fatty was confused.
With He Kun's current reputation, many people wanted to treat him to a meal but didn't have the chance. It didn't seem like a big deal to treat him to a meal, but he felt that something was wrong.
"Then let's go."
He Kun pulled Fatty to the biggest restaurant in the Imperial City, the Immortal Gathering Restaurant.
The meal cost Fatty a hundred silver taels. Fatty's face turned pale from heartache.
However, for Fatty, the bad luck had just begun.# Date:09 7 2019 12:30PM
