This martial artist just wants to be an official

Chapter 373 Huiyuan!

On the day the results were released, it was a huge crowd.

Almost all the scholars came here en masse on this day.

Naturally, Lu Yuanzhi also received the news. He looked calmly and brought a group of Pei Yinlang's soldiers here to maintain order.

In fact, most of the order at this time does not need to be maintained. It is just for the scholars to come and see the list. Even if there is a little commotion, it doesn't matter.

It's just that having Pei Yinlang here can intimidate some young people and prevent much trouble.

No one disturbed him, and Lu Yuanzhi felt at ease. He was dressed in black brocade and white jade, sitting on the second-floor attic opposite the list, yawning.

"Brother."

Hai Wuyan was also by his side.

On the day when the results are released, Hai Wushuang and Liu Fengnian will naturally come. After all, they will be participating in this spring ceremony.

Especially Hai Wuyan, Lu Yuanzhi had great confidence in him.

"Are you nervous?"

Hearing Hai Wuyang's voice, Lu Yuanzhi's mouth curled up slightly, and he glanced at the crowd gathered below the stage.

"Not too nervous."

Hai Wuyan looked calm:
"I have tried my best to eliminate Chen Chen. The result will be determined by God's will."

"Tsk."

Lu Yuanzhi looked at Hai Wuyang's calm demeanor, which looked more and more like the pedantic scholar in his impression.

"Where's Deli?"

Lu Yuanzhi smiled and turned to look over.

Liu Fengnian was holding a wine glass gracefully at this time, standing in front of the two of them, with his back to the two of them, watching the crowd in the audience.

"Seriously, brother, I'm not nervous anymore."

Liu Fengnian turned around, gently touched the delicate begonia flower on her head, and raised the corners of her mouth slightly:
"I am very self-aware about my articles. It is a fluke to get Sun Shan. If I lose Sun Shan, it will naturally be expected."

Hearing this, Lu Yuanzhi laughed:

"You are quite dashing."

"It's just that if you can be on this list, it will be a good thing if you are captured by some master."

Liu Fengnian also smiled and stroked the begonia flower on his head narcissistically. He was obviously immersed in the dream he had weaved for himself.

"Ho."

Hearing Liu Fengnian's words, Hai Wushuang moved his mouth expressionlessly and sneered.

The allusion of catching a son-in-law under the official list is naturally found in all dynasties.

There was a noble official in the capital. When his daughter reached the right age and it happened to be the day when the rankings were released in the spring, he asked his daughter to sit in a sedan chair and wear a red hijab. If he saw any of the monks on the rankings, his servants would come and report to him. Home door.

If a monk on the list falls in love with your family and agrees to the marriage, he will put on his red robe and play his suona, and they will get married on the same day.

Of course, there are certain things to be careful about when catching a son-in-law. Young people like those who are high-ranking officials and nobles are naturally impossible to catch, and they may not necessarily be attracted to your girl.

Only a son-in-law from a poor family can be a serious son-in-law.

Those who can be admitted as monks in their twenties and thirties have the resources of the woman's family, and can become a local fourth-rank official no matter how bad the future is.

This can also be considered as a consideration for the future of the family.

"You are just thinking about good things."

Lu Yuanzhi also burst into laughter when he heard Liu Fengnian's words.

To be honest, during this time, he also learned about Liu Fengnian's origins. He was from a merchant family in Beijing. He was not rich, but he was definitely rich.

If he could really get on the membership list, he wouldn't really want to be caught and made a son-in-law.

"Hey, it's okay if this can't be done. Why don't you let people think about it?"

Liu Fengnian didn't care about Lu Yuanzhi's joking. He picked up the wine glass on the table, took a sip and took out a package from his luggage with a smile:
"Look, I've even got my stuff ready."

?

Lu Yuanzhi was slightly startled. He almost laughed out loud when he saw Liu Fengnian opening the package on the table:

"Your special mother is really a talent."

Liu Fengnian looked complacent:
"This is just in case. If I really get caught, who knows whether the wedding clothes he prepared for me will fit me."

The corners of Hai Wuyan's eyes twitched slightly, and he simply ignored the idiot.

The grandson's package contained a man's wedding robe...

Is this thing all ready? ?

You really are a wonderful person.

"It's called just in case."

Liu Fengnian raised his eyebrows, not ashamed but proud:
"I can't believe that this noble man who wants to catch his son-in-law is even happier when he sees how sensible I am."

"alright."

Lu Yuanzhi no longer wanted to waste time with this guy.

While the three of them were still chatting, a burst of noise came from the pavilion.

"The list is released!! The list is released!!"

After hearing this, everyone looked towards the side of the list.

There are already officials from the Ministry of Rites standing on the list.

And the list is exactly the tribute list with famous posts.

As long as the official from the Ministry of Rites shouted out the name card after tearing it off, he would know whether he was on the list or not.

This stage is called "singing the list".

Those who couldn't see the words on the list pricked up their ears and listened to that person's voice with all their attention.

"Sun Shanbang, Han Shuo in Beijing!"

The first voice came.

Hearing this voice, everyone turned around and looked around.

Sure enough, among the crowd, an old man with an old face and white hair and beard started dancing:
"I won!! I won!! Finally passed the exam!!"

This old man looked to be at least fifty.

I didn't expect that I could win a tribute at such a young age. It's a miracle.

In fact, being selected as a Gongshi is equivalent to being "born with the same Jinshi" as a minimum.

And Zhongsunshan, as the name suggests, is the last one on the list.

This is also a blessing for ordinary families to honor their ancestors.

Seeing this scene, some people in the crowd looked down upon him and others were disdainful.

But more of it was envy and jealousy.

The candidates who came all the way to Beijing to take the exam were all born in Juren. Although they also had official status, how could they be "same as Jinshi"?
Those who come from two rankings will always outweigh those who come from one ranking.

"If you are 273, go to the state to raise your son Wang Yan!"

"Me!! It's me!! Me!! Hahaha!!"

A scholar in his thirties jumped up wildly when he heard that he had been awarded a tribute. His behavior was no different from that of the old man just now.

Seeing this, everyone did not dare to listen, and stared at the mouth of the person singing the song.

Time passed slowly.

Charts follow one after another.

Liu Fengnian couldn't stand or sit at this time. He seemed to have fleas all over his body and could not sit still.

"Why hasn't it come to me yet? Why hasn't it come to me yet..."

He was pacing back and forth, mouthing something like a mantra.

At this time the list has reached the middle.

Liu Fengnian is very familiar with his own writing, which is at the middle level at most. If he sings it, he doesn't even need to listen to it. He definitely doesn't have that much literary talent.

I guess I failed the list.

Hai Wuyan's expression remained calm, he just held the cup and sipped it gently.

It is obvious that he has a confident mind and never doubts his own.

"Okay, sit down for a while."

Lu Yuanzhi waved his hand impatiently, this kid is really noisy.

"Hey!"

When Liu Fengnian heard Lu Yuanzhi's words, he quickly sat on the bench.

After sitting for less than a minute, Liu Fengnian quickly stood up again, still saying the words like a mantra: "It's my turn..."

Just when Lu Yuanzhi wanted to break his saliva, a voice rang in everyone's ears.

"The person with 98 on the Apricot Ranking is Liu Fengnian from Qinghe Academy in Beijing!!"

Hear this sound.

Liu Fengnian stood stunned on the spot.

The next second, he jumped three feet high! !
"I hit it! I can actually get over 100!! Ouch! So good!!"

Liu Fengnian's face was wide-eyed, and his mouth was even grinning behind his ears. He was shaking his body violently, and his hands were fluttering up and down like bird wings.

He stretched his head directly to the servants who had been waiting for a long time under the pavilion and shouted:
"Quick!! I'm hit!!! Start taking action!!"

Hearing his voice, the two rows of slaves standing on the street instantly opened the baskets they were carrying, revealing pockets of red candies and some copper coins inside. The slaves all had smiles on their faces, and they looked at each other when they met. A handful of money and candies were taken out of the basket:
“Everyone in my young master’s high school is here to rejoice!!”

"My boy's name is Liu Fengnian! Where is Wenquxing from Qinghe Academy! He won the tribute award, so everyone is very happy!!"

"Hey! My young master has not yet reached his twenties and has not yet gotten married, and he has been selected as a tribute! I can help you find a matchmaker if there is an official girl you like!"

"..."

After a while, everyone in the whole street knew that there was a young man named Liu Fengnian from Qinghe Academy. He was just under nineteen today, not yet married, and he was awarded a tribute...

"Keep your voice louder! Haven't you eaten yet?!"

Obviously, Liu Fengnian's beaming face was still a little dissatisfied, and he shouted at his lowly servants.

Suddenly the sound got louder! !

"My young master! He is under twenty! He is a student of Qinghe Academy!! He is famous in the apricot list!! He is not married yet!!"

Obviously, the effect of such a yo-ho is really great.

There are even some families in the capital who are preparing to capture their son-in-law.

Everyone's eyes turned this way.

Liu Fengnian was not only not afraid of these looks, but instead grinned and bowed one by one:

"I hope you all can be like me and be on the list!! We are all happy together!! Hahahaha!"

……

Lu Yuanzhi and Hai Wuyang's faces turned red.

The two of them wanted to bury their heads in their chests.

They are all further away from Liu Fengnian, except for the four characters written on their faces: I don't know him.

……

Of course the singing is still going on.

Nearly half an hour passed.

Liu Fengnian's excitement also passed, and he sat in front of the two people with a smile on his face.

"piss off."

Lu Yuan kicked him over and cursed:

"You don't feel ashamed either!"

"Hey, what's the shame in this! Brother is still obsessed with it."

After receiving a kick, Liu Fengnian was not annoyed. Instead, he smiled triumphantly and said:
"Never show off when doing things. What's the point of living? Don't people just want to live for pleasure?"

Lu Yuanzhi was speechless, and he was too lazy to pay attention to this idiot.

Just quietly listening to the singing.

However, each name was slowly sung.

Hai Wuyan's name was never mentioned.

Lu Yuanzhi also lost confidence. He looked at Hai Wuyan who was still sitting there drinking tea, pursed his lips and asked:

"It's okay, why don't you have your name here?"

Hai Wuyang took a sip of hot tea, his hands under the table unconsciously tightened the corners of his clothes, and said expressionlessly:

"Good food, don't be afraid of being late."

……

Seeing that Hai Wuyan was still so confident, Lu Yuanzhi felt a little embarrassed.

But slowly.

When he reached the top three on the charts, Lu Yuanzhi was no longer calm.

Even Liu Fengnian, who was noisy just now, noticed something was wrong. He didn't dare to make any more noise and looked nervously at the person singing the song.

"Three people from Xingbang are members of the King of Wanzhou!"

It’s not Hai Wuyan’s name yet.

There are only two spots left.

Lu Yuanzhi's heart was in his throat.

He swallowed and glanced at Hai Wuyan.

At this time, Hai Wuyan's face still had no expression, but Lu Yuanzhi could clearly see that there were beads of sweat falling on Hai Wuyan's forehead...

At this time, Lu Yuanzhi also spoke. He was afraid that his words would make Hai Wuyang feel more stressed.

"Both Xingbang and Wu Shi in the capital!"

Among the crowd, a young man heard this and felt a sense of regret on his face. He shook his head and sighed:
"There is only one person missing from Huiyuan! What a pity, what a pity."

However, he was surrounded by people who came up to congratulate him and congratulate him.

This is this...

When I hear this name, it’s not just Hai Wuyan…

Lu Yuanzhi's heart beat loudly.

There is only one Huiyuan left.

Darling, this is the real heaven with one thought and hell with one thought.

It's so exciting.

Everyone looked nervously at the singer.

Everyone is curious in their hearts, who is the person who is going to be successful?

At this time, Hai Wuyan's back was already sweating. Although there was still no expression on his face, his hands under the table were about to scratch his clothes to pieces.

Finally, in the expectation of everyone.

The singing voice sounded:
"The winner of Xingbang, Qinghe Academy in Beijing, is safe!!"

Hear this sound.

Everyone burst into discussion.

"It sure is him!"

"A student of Qinghe Academy, a close disciple of Dean Bai Brownzhi!"

"I knew that when I went to pick him up, I saw that Hai Wuyan was missing from Qiu Wei's list. There was definitely something wrong with him."

"Keep your voice down. There are still Pei Yinlang's lackeys here. If they hear it, they might arrange a crime against you and me to criticize the imperial court."

"Hmph! How can we, as scholars, be afraid of those court eagles?!"

"..."

The corner of Lu Yuanzhi's mouth twitched.

Since entering the third level, let alone the comments below, even an ant climbing ten miles away can hear it if he wants to hear it.

However, he didn't care. Instead, he looked at Hai Wuyan with a smile:
"Congratulations to Erba, you won the first place in the apricot list!!"

At this time, Hai Wuyan's eyes were empty and he stared blankly at the table, turning a deaf ear to Lu Yuanzhi's words.

Seeing Hai Wuyan, there was no reaction.

Lu Yuanzhi stretched out his hand and waved it in front of him:

"What are you thinking about? You have gained Huiyuan!!"

"Huh? Oh. It's okay, it's just expected."

Hai Wuyan remained calm and breathed a sigh of relief, calmly sipping the sweat from his palms on his clothes.

Lu Yuanzhi was about to speak.

Then he saw Liu Fengnian coming downstairs like the wind, rushing towards the house of a row of nobles under the pavilion who were ready to catch their son-in-law...
