095: Shock County Case
"Cheng, Mr. Cheng!"
Bang, bang, bang.
The shouts were accompanied by a rapid knock on the door.
Who would knock on the door of Cheng Qing’s house at this time?
Outsiders cannot avoid it, so they can only take the yamen runners who will take the list instead of Cheng Qing!
But the guards usually call Cheng Qing Daming directly, and there are few times when they are so polite. The eldest lady looked at each other with her two sisters, and joy appeared in her eyes.
"Xiao Lang, the yamen runners are back to report the good news. You must have passed the first county examination!"
Just passed the first county examination?
More than just that.
Cheng Qing slowly stood up from the chair, confident.
She suspected that she would lose the opportunity to participate in the county examination, but she never suspected that she failed the county examination!
Although she has not been officially involved in the Four Books and Five Classics for a long time, the original "Cheng Qing" just did not systematically learn the Four Books and Five Classics. Since she has mastered literature and inspiration, how can she not be involved at all?
What's more, she has the understanding of an adult in her twenties and the memories of a teenager. She was admitted to Nanyi Academy and received Meng Huaijin's small class teaching. She couldn't even pass a county exam. Cheng Qing could only accept the cruel fact that she was really not suitable to take the "Imperial Examination".
The county examination can be passed. It only depends on what kind of results you pass. The yamen runners have changed their titles. Cheng Qing was sure that he should have done a good job in the exam.
The door was pushed open a large crack, revealing a black face of the yamen runner.
A black face full of flesh is filled with smiles:
"I've reported good news to Mr. Cheng. The first county examination is in the first place, Mr. Cheng's high school title!"
First name?
Since she decided to study hard after she entered the officialdom, she was depressed by house arrest for two months. Cui Yan and others have instantly received equal rewards for her efforts to participate in the county trial.
Cheng Qing would not be so excited that she cried bitterly. The first title of the county test should be hers!
"Xiaolang, you are the first name-"
"Xiao Lang is so awesome!"
“…No mistake?”
It’s not because the three sisters questioned Cheng Qing’s strength, they were too happy.
Before being under house arrest, Cheng Qing's best score in Nanyi Academy was the ninth place in the T-class. It was not surprising that the first place in the county examination came from Nanyi Academy. It fell on Cheng Qing, which surprised the three sisters.
This shows that Cheng Qing was under house arrest and his strength did not retreat but instead advanced!
The yamen runners still abide by the rules set by the prefect Yu, and did not dare to take a step forward. They did not even open the door completely, but the expression on their faces was really different from before:
"How can you read it wrong? Mr. Cheng has indeed taken the first place. Cheng is quick to report the good news first. After a moment, I am afraid that Mr. Cheng's classmates will come to congratulate you!"
Yes, if it weren't for the first game, how could the yamen runners take the initiative to open the door to report the good news? At most, tell them through the door that Xiaolang passed the first game.
Liu came to his senses and took out a red seal to reward the yamen runners.
The yamen runners never dared to take money from the Cheng family, but this time they took it happily.
Even if the prefect Yu knew about it, he would not say anything. This is a happy money and a custom of posting scientific examinations!
The yamen runners were right. Before the wedding money he received from Liu was kicked, Ding Jiu's classmates came to Yangliu Lane together. They shouted Cheng Qing's name, and the yamen runners said they had offended him and locked the door of Cheng Qing's house as usual. The students were all people who could not afford to offend him. They almost broke through because of anger last time. It was not surprising that they broke through because they were too happy this time, so it would be better to be careful!
However, these students always come to Yangliu Lane, and Lord Yu’s ban is really not very deterrent.
Just lock the door, so it will not affect Cheng Qing and his classmates' exchanges feelings through the door panel.
Everyone congratulated her on her first exam, and Cheng Qing himself was also happy:
"When I can act freely, I will invite everyone to drink. Without your righteous words, I will not even have the opportunity to refer to it!"
The one who is most grateful is Cui Yan, but unfortunately Cui Yan is not present.
However, she was really grateful to these classmates. A group of teenagers had no scheming and helping her was not a reward, but her heart was sincere.
Everyone immediately started to cheer: "The average banquet can't be sent to us. When Cui Yan comes back from his hometown, you will invite everyone to Taibailou."
The table in Taibai Building costs at least ten taels of silver per table.
It’s not that Cheng Qing is reluctant to let go of money, she consumes it within her ability... It’s a bit expensive, but the chefs in Taibailou are really good. Cheng Qing was eaten by Meng Huaijin when she was invited to Xuandu Mansion. After several months, she still missed the taste from time to time.
Is there any money? There is still some stuff, but Cheng Qing didn't shy and agreed on the spot, "Okay, let's choose Taibai Tower. We won't be drunk!"
Everyone was even more happy.
Although the food is happy, it depends on who you eat with.
After a while of laughter, some classmates talked about the important things:
"Cheng Qing, you took the first exam in the first exam, are you still taking the remaining four exams?"
There are five county exams in total, and the first one is the most critical. The candidates who can get the first place in the first exam have a privilege. They can not take the remaining four exams and directly take the government exam after a while.
As for Cheng Qing's situation, her classmates felt that it was most reasonable for her not to take the remaining four exams.
Why not have privileges? Although Yu Taifu agreed to Cheng Qing take the county examination, he reluctantly agreed to the situation. He was disgusted with Cheng Qing. Cheng Qing needed to be more low-key at this time, and successfully completed the palace examination and passed the college examination. It is more important to get the fame of the "scholar" than anything else!
But if you use your privileges and give up the last four exams, it means that Cheng Qing gave up on going to the county exam first.
The first in the county examination, also known as the "county case leader", and the first in the prefecture examination, and the first in the court examination, was called "little three yuan".
Going further up, the first place in the provincial examination is called "Xieyuan", the first place in the imperial examination is called "Huiyuan", and the first place in the palace examination is called "Zhuangyuan", which together is called "Big Three Yuan".
Apart from the small three yuan, let’s just talk about the big three yuan. Since the birth of the imperial examination system, there were two candidates who won the three yuan in a row, six in the Song Dynasty, and one in the Yuan Dynasty... After the Yuan Dynasty, it was originally from the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty was replaced by the Great Wei in this time and space. However, the imperial examination system of the Great Wei has achieved a higher status than any previous dynasty. However, the Great Wei has been established for more than 150 years, and so far, only three have won the three yuan in a row!
There were only three god-level test masters who had only produced 150 years, all of whom were like national mascots. Not to mention how high the starting point of the career of the official career was than the Jinshi of the same year. Is this achievement enough for the descendants of the god-level test masters to brag about for several lifetimes?
Meng Huaijin's path to rise began at the beginning of the county case.
He won the county case head, the government case head and the court case head, and then won the top name of the countryside test "Jie Yuan". Now he has actually won four yuan in a row.
If she won another "Huiyuan", Meng Huaijin would have a lot of hope to win six yuan in a row... Just thinking about it, Cheng Qing was very moved. If she didn't take the first place in the county exam, she wouldn't have such an idea.
But with her strength and a little luck, she even told her to pass the first place. Why should she give up the opportunity to compete for the "county case leader"?
Just to make Prefect Yu happy?
——Turn down, if she had the chance to win six yuan in a row, would Cheng Qing not take it seriously if she was happy?
"No, I'm going to continue taking the remaining four exams!"
Through the door panel, Cheng Qing's answer was powerful.
The classmate was embarrassed, "Cheng Qing, I, I have no other meaning, I just think you might as well wait for the exam at home..."
"Brother Fang is for my own good. I will not misunderstand it, but I really want to give it a try."
What do you want to try?
Of course I want to win the county case.
