Chapter 2142: Catching a son-in-law
After Jiang Sheng and the others left, Gu Jinan told the other candidates about Jiang Sheng's reminder, then returned to the house and began to thank guests behind closed doors. He did not go anywhere and waited for the day when the results were released.
While they were freshening up, eating dinner, and sleeping soundly, other officials were still in a mess, and the medical clinic in the capital was crowded with people, all of whom came to invite doctors to treat the sick candidates.
But there were too many candidates and too few doctors, which made the sky dark, and some candidates did not wait for the doctors.
Emperor Jingyuan had been sending people to keep an eye on the candidates. When he learned about this, he sneered and scolded: "A bunch of trash, even though they are in the capital, they are in such a miserable state. If they are sent to the northwest, they will not be able to calm the people and govern the world. I'm afraid You cant even take care of yourself!
He continued to order: "Keep an eye on Gu Jinan and see who has been looking for him recently. Has he secretly met anyone?"
Due to the relationship between Qin Sanlang and the Ouyang family, Emperor Jingyuan wanted to reuse Gu Jinan, but he was naturally suspicious and feared that Gu Jinan had joined other wealthy families, so he sent people to keep an eye on him.
Once it was discovered that Gu Jinan was working as a slave for a wealthy family, he immediately took away his fame!
As ordered. Emperor Jingyuans people took the order and went to do it.
Emperor Jingyuan sent a message to the officials who were reviewing the results: "Tell them to hurry up. The results will be released in five days."
Emperor Jingyuan gave an order, Yingge Lao, Ouyang Zhang and other reviewers stepped up their review. Three days later, a batch of good articles were selected and presented to Emperor Jingyuan for him to determine the ranking.
Unsurprisingly, Gu Jinans exam paper is among them.
Emperor Jingyuan was very satisfied. The officials who marked the exams did not violate the rules and presented him with the papers of candidates who had real abilities.
Emperor Jingyuan has already read Gu Jinan's examination strategy, but now that he is looking at it again, he still thinks it is very good. He is a man of real ability, unlike other students who only have flowers and nothing practical.
However, there are still many children in the wealthy families who have excellent policy writing, such as Zong Zhengyi, the third son of the Zongzheng family, Feng Yu of the Feng family, Song Yin of the Song family, Chu Jun of the Chu family, and Fang Dianqing of the Fang family. , the strategies they wrote are all of the best, and they have always been famous in the capital, and with time, they will become pillars.
But behind them stood the wealthy families. Emperor Jingyuan knew very well what the wealthy families were and did not dare to reuse them. Therefore, Emperor Jingyuan looked at it and gave Huiyuan to the farmer.
This science will be tried, and everything will be released from one fast word. After five days, the first day of February will be released.
Since the announcement of the results was known, major restaurants in the capital prepared Huiyuan Pavilion and sent messages to high school candidates who had the opportunity, asking them to attend on the day the results were released.
Two days before the results are released, there will be a writing party for candidates from all over the country to make friends through literature. The poems and songs they produce will also be judged and the first place will be awarded. The restaurant will give a thousand gold as a lottery to the first place.
After the restaurant merchants made such a fuss, before the results were released, the whole capital became lively.
In addition to merchants, families with daughters in the capital are also busy, asking who will win? How many places can I get? What does it look like? How is your family background?
After finding out more about it, he sent his servants to wait in front of the Gongyuan. As soon as the gold medal list was posted, and when he saw the promising candidates and went to see the list, he would immediately capture him and make him his aunt!
So on the day when the results were released, before dawn, the entire Gongyuan was blocked by people.
Lu Bai was so excited that he got up before dawn and called Gu Jinan and the others, bang bang bang, "Get up quickly, the results are about to be released. If we don't go out to the Gongyuan, we won't be able to get in!"
Gu Jinan was so noisy by him that he could only stand up and open the door, saying: "Didn't I say last night that we won't look at the results. If you pass the exam, someone from the Ministry of Etiquette will come to announce the good news."
"You really don't want to go? This is a big event in your life!" Lu Bai felt that Gu Jinan and the others were sick. How could they not go for such a big event?
He also said: "Why are you afraid of catching your son-in-law? If you want to catch him, then catch him. If you don't marry him, it will be done."
Gu Jinan said: "This is just one of the reasons. The second is that after passing the general examination, you still have to prepare for the palace examination. If someone hurts your hand or foot while looking at the results and delays the palace examination, the exam will be in vain."
He then said, "If you want to see the list, just go with Dou Shaodong's house. We won't go." Seeing that he couldn't make sense, Lu Bai could only say, "Okay, I'll go to Dou Shaodong's house."
Gu Jinan smiled and kindly gave him a set of newly made brocade robes: "If you haven't worn it yet, you can wear it to see the list. Let Zezi and Feng Lian follow you."
Lu Bai frowned when he heard this, remembering the time when he was punished by Gu Jinan, he pointed at him and said, "Are you trying to trick me?"
Gu Jinan smiled: "Things that make you suffer are called pitfalls, and things that let you gain advantages are called helping you."
This is true, Lu Bai thought: "It sounds like the pit is quite big."
Gu Jinan: "Are you going? It's okay not to go. It's not bad to just stay at the house."
Lu Bai grabbed his robe and said, "Go, why don't you go? This is a rare thing!"
Lu Bai happily changed into his robe and dressed himself up. Then he took Zezi and Feng Lian to Dou Shaodong's house, and they went out together in a carriage to look at the list.
As soon as we arrived at Gongyuan Street, it was so crowded that the carriage could not enter, so we had to walk and went to a restaurant called Zhaixing. The one we picked was naturally Wenquxing.
But Lu Bai did not go in. He said goodbye to Dou Shaodong's family at the door of the restaurant, and took Zezi and Feng Lian to the Gongyuan to wait for the list.
The Jin Bang was surrounded by people looking at the list. If there were no sergeants blocking it, the Jin Bang would have been crushed by them!
Dong dong dong!
When Si hour arrived, the drums sounded loudly, the main gate of Gongyuan opened wide, and a group of officials from the Ministry of Rites came out.
The list is released, the list is released!
Someone shouted. After the sound spread, everyone started to move and crowded towards the golden list.
Seeing this, the leading general shouted: "Back off, everyone back off, destroy the gold list, and take everyone to death row!"
After everyone heard this, they stopped. After the people from the Ministry of Rites posted the gold list, they crowded over to take a look.
Lu Bai had good eyesight, so he asked Zezi to carry him, and looked over the heads of everyone. When he saw Yao Youqian's name, he was shocked: "Second in the general examination, Yao Youqian actually got second in the general examination, he, he, he... What kind of **** luck did you have?!"
Zezi was also shocked. He didnt expect that Yao had enough money to pass the examination and came second in the examination. He asked quickly: "What place did the young master get in the examination?"
Lu Bai said: "First, Jianghuai Jieyuan, Gu Jin'an from Tianfu County, He'an Prefecture, ranked first in the national examination!"
First, the eldest young master is really the first! Feng Lian was small and had already gone in to look at the gold list, and then came back to tell Sawazi.
Okay, okay, congratulations, young master. Zezi was very happy, put down Lu Bai, and rushed out excitedly, rushing back to tell Gu Jinan the good news.
But as soon as they squeezed out, two groups of people rushed from the left and right. They pressed Lu Bai together and asked, "I dare to ask, young master, who is Gu Jin'an of Jianghuai and Gu Dayuan?"
Lu Bai's mind turned and he said: "...Exactly, who are you? Let me go quickly. I finally passed the Huiyuan exam and I have to rush back to write a letter to inform my family in Dafeng Village, Tianfu County of the good news. .
The two groups of people were overjoyed after hearing this: "Gu Huiyuan, congratulations to you. You are already our noble son-in-law. Please come with us back to your home to worship. After the church visit, we will inform your hometown of the good news of your high school reunion and your marriage." people."
