Seeing Wei Haogu leading Fan Jin to the reception hall, many people's eyes lit up.
The young man in front of him had the temperament of a gentleman.
There was also a unique temperament that was indescribably deep, quiet, and mysterious.
He had a scholarly air about him.
There was also a mysterious aura.
There was also an intelligent temperament.
It was obvious that it was not an ordinary item.
A student wearing a square scarf smiled and said,"No wonder Brother Wei Nian praised this child of the Fan family so many times. He is indeed not an ordinary person.”
"Brother Fan is late."
Wei Wenqian did not address Fan Jin as a young friend on such a formal occasion.
Nothing else, to avoid suspicion.
Otherwise, if outsiders heard this, they would say that the Wei Clan was manipulating the Nanhai County and Guangdong Provincial Examinations.
This crime could be big or small.
After greeting Fan Jin, Wei Wenqian turned to the student and said with a smile,""Brother Li, now you know that I'm not helping others?”
"No, no, it's my fault. In a moment, I'll be the one to apologize to little brother Fan and brother Wei Nian.”
Fan Jin smiled.
It seemed that Wei Wenqian had taken out his own poem to make a name for himself, but he might have been suspected.
After all, he was not even a child.
To be able to produce such a delicate and seemingly plain but flawless mountain poem was really suspicious.
Now, he had multiple buffs.
His temperament was far from that of a commoner.
After seeing it, everyone's doubts were dispelled.
Temperament was a mysterious thing, but it actually existed.
Wei Wenqian introduced them one by one.
The person who had admitted his mistake was called Li Ning. He was also a well-known scholar in the South China Sea. He was a fifteen-year-old scholar and had failed the provincial examination once. However, many people believed that he would definitely pass the next examination and would most likely win the Jinshi examination.
Fan Jin was also looking at Li Ning through physiognomy.
Yes, his literary aura was depressed, his expression was restrained, and there was no trace of fireworks.
Even if he did not pass the exam, it was only a matter of time before he became proud.
His inner thoughts were also calm, he said whatever he thought.
Wei Wenqian was the same.
This made Fan Jin think highly of the scholars of this era.
He recalled the period when Fan Jin, the scholar, was elected.
The scholars of the Ming Dynasty seemed to be vulgar, greedy, pedantic, and ignorant.
There were only a few outstanding people who, without exception, despised the imperial examinations.
Fortunately, it was the end of Hongwu, and there were still 30 to 40 years before the decline of the scholarly atmosphere.
As for the Great Ming Dynasty, it was also from the period when Fan Jin was elected that it began to gradually decline.
"This is County Magistrate Lin. Brother Fan has come to pay his respects.”
A man in his forties walked out of the house. He was thin and had an ordinary appearance, but his face was full of dignity.
It turned out that the county magistrate had arrived.
Fan Jin knew that Lin Xian Zun was a scholar in the 27th year of Hongwu. He was from Ningde County, Fujian Province, and was ranked in the middle and lower ranks of the top three. Although it was used immediately after the ranking, it was distributed in a remote place like Nanhai, Guangdong, so his career was a little bleak.
No wonder there was a hint of worry in his eyes.
And that was not all.
County Head Lin still wanted to make a name for himself.
However, the gentry of Nan 'an did not take the initiative to support County Lord Lin, making him feel a little restrained.
As for how Fan Jin knew this…
Some of them were revealed by his eldest uncle when he was free to brag.
Some of the information was found in the Official Records.
In this era, scholars were recorded in the same year.
There is also a record of deer singing.
There was even a list of Jinshi, and they would even be engraved on a monument in the Ministry of Rites.
Seeing that Fan Jin was about to come up and kneel, County Head Lin waved his sleeves and said,""This is a cultural gathering. How can it be so humiliating? Fan Jin doesn't have to kneel.”
"Thank you, County Lord."
Fan Jin bowed deeply and respectfully.
Wei Wen Qing and the others didn't need to kneel, only students had this privilege.
Otherwise, even if he became the head of the sixth household, a wealthy merchant in the county with power and money, he would still have to kneel before the county magistrate.
County Head Lin also saw Fan Jin's outstanding temperament and outstanding performance. In addition, he wanted to give face to Wei Wen Qing and the others, so he specially asked Fan Jin to skip the formalities.
"The County Lord is right."
Someone interrupted,"Since it's a cultural gathering, why did you let this ragged and unaccomplished villager in?" Brother Wei Nian, forgive me for being rude.”
Wei Wen Qing frowned, his face showing dissatisfaction.
However, he could not reprimand her.
The one who spoke was Zhang Shilu, the grandson of Zhang Huaiyuan. He was also a scholar, and he had come uninvited to this gathering.
First, he would say bad things to the guests he invited.
It was really too much.
Fan Jin looked at Zhang Shilu.
He was a few years older than her, of average build, with an ordinary appearance and a somewhat sinister temperament.
The eyes that looked at him were also filled with malice.
"This kid didn't give my grandfather face and didn't come to my Nefarious Academy. He deserves to die!”
"The Wei Clan helped this kid gain fame by inviting the County Lord to attend the cultural gathering. Steal my fame and cut off my future? I won't rest until he dies!"
"First, I'll make my stance clear here and make the County Honorable fear him. After a while, I'll see how the County Honorable chooses Fan Jin as the head of the case. The Zhang family is the most prestigious family in the South Sea. The county lord would never have forgotten this!”
"Scolding and scolding him in front of his face, make him lose his manners! Would he dare to talk back? If he dares to curse at me, I'll directly call my servant in and give him a beating. This brat's reputation for composing poems will be swept to the ground, and even the Wei family's face will be completely destroyed.”
