Damn it, I'm in the garbage book I wrote

Chapter 30 Something happened after all.

The results of the Yangzhou Spring Examination will be announced today. This year, the announcement of the results is three months later than in previous years. That is because the marking of the papers is not done by the Ministry of Rites but by six ministries. A paper has to be circulated among six ministries before the final decision can be made.

This was the result of the confrontation between the imperial power and the cultural management group, and even more so the result of the factional war. Perhaps it was because Prime Minister Gao had too much power, and he felt that something big would happen if he continued to monopolize power, so he relaxed the authority of marking the papers in this spring examination and agreed to conduct a comprehensive assessment in this way.

"Miss, what are you looking at?"

"As for me, I want to see how many people can find a husband based on the list this year."

The person who spoke was Miss Tang Wanqiu. She held her chin and looked at the bustling crowd below, and she found it quite interesting. She came here from Luoyang a few days ago to discuss cooperation. Today, she happened to encounter the announcement of the results and stayed for two more days. She originally planned to just take a look at the excitement, but she didn't expect it to be so lively this year.

Because this year there are six departments reviewing the papers, in the past only the eight-legged essay and Confucianism and Legalism were focused on. But after the new mechanism was introduced this year, each department is the main reviewer. So compared to previous years, there are all kinds of people in this year's spring examination.

Miss Tang, who was looking upstairs, found it very interesting to see those people going crazy or beating their chests. But there was one person who really caught people's attention. He was a tall and handsome young man. The most attractive thing about him was not his handsome appearance but his calm demeanor.

"This guy is quite interesting. Judging from the way he talks to others, he must have won. But it's rare to see him look neither sad nor happy."

Miss Tang, who was sitting at the window, commented: "It seems that he is not a student from a wealthy family, but it is indeed good to have such a character."

"In my opinion, the young lady is probably attracted to him. Indeed, he is handsome and elegant, and the white clothes make him even more attractive."

The maid's words made Miss Tang laugh so hard that she fell backwards. Then she turned around and leaned back on the bamboo chair: "Don't look for a scholar anywhere. Have you forgotten why my sister committed suicide? If it weren't for that damn scholar, she wouldn't have ended up like this."

"Miss, there are so many scholars in the world, how can you kill them all with one blow?"

"There are many of them, but they are just a bunch of people who curry favor with the powerful."

Miss Tang adjusted her posture at this time, gently waving the round fan in her hand, her shoulders half exposed, showing an extremely lazy look. As the most famous merchant family in Heluo, her Tang family was not a small family. It's just that the Tang family has been sparsely populated over the years, and in her generation, there are no male descendants except some distant relatives.

Now that Tang Wanqiu has taken over the Tang family, she actually has the responsibility and obligation to maintain the prosperity of the family. It's just that she doesn't like those scholars from the bottom of her heart, because when she was nine years old, she witnessed her elder sister hanging herself in the room, killing two people. In the final analysis, it was just that she loved the wrong person, and in order to climb up the social ladder, she gave up her gentle and beautiful sister and the fetus in her sister's belly.

Now that man is very successful, as if he married the daughter of the current Minister of Revenue, and his career is very successful, he has been promoted to the fourth rank, and his career is booming. But that man's current wealth and glory were all exchanged for Miss Tang's sister and the unborn child. Whenever Miss Tang thought of this, she felt disgusted, not only towards the scholar but also towards men.

At this moment there was a knock at his door. Miss Tang quickly tidied her clothes and ordered the maid to open the door. When the door opened, it was the young scholar who was standing in front of the list and chatting and laughing with others.

"I am Ye Liangchen, from Suzhou. When I saw the young lady standing at the window just now, I felt a little dazed and came to look for her. Please forgive me."

"Miss, Miss...he's here!" The maid ran in from outside and whispered to Miss Tang, "You should go and meet him quickly. He looks like a decent man."

Miss Tang didn't respond but just snorted lightly, then got up and went to the outer hall, where she saw Ye Liangchen still standing at the door, holding a folding fan in his hand and bowing, looking very polite.

"Please forgive me. If you already know that it is an offense, why do you still come here? If you have already come here, why do you still call it an offense? What if I forgive you? What if I don't forgive you?"

Don't be fooled by Miss Tang's fair, tender and soft appearance. The attack power of her opening words is not small. This set of recruiting students caught Ye Liangchen off guard. After all, he had never encountered such a thing before. The smile that had bloomed on his face suddenly froze. Logic collided in his mind, creating dazzling sparks. He felt that no matter how he answered, it would be wrong.

"I won first place in the provincial examination and first place in the imperial examination. I have won two prizes in a row."

In a misplaced confrontation, he could not answer the question, which caused a logical conflict and automatically skipped the question, triggering the established Q&A process. However, such an answer obviously could not satisfy Miss Tang. "So what if you have won three prizes in a row? Lamei, see you off."

The door slammed shut with a bang. The ruthless Miss Tang made the new champion Ye Liangchen outside feel frustrated. He took a few steps back in astonishment, and the expression on his face changed from shock to anger. This feeling of being blatantly insulted made him feel unreasonable hatred in his heart. He came with a smile on his face, but his face was as cold as ice when he left.

After he left, Miss Tang stood at the window and saw his back, but there was only a bit of sarcasm in her eyes. The maid beside her said worriedly: "Miss, you are so mean to him. If he becomes an official in the future, won't it be very difficult for us?"

Miss Tang did not answer directly, but gently picked up a cup of tea and took a sip: "When I saw him from a distance just now, I thought he was a person in a painting. But when he came closer and knocked on the door, I just felt disgusted. He was hypocritical as soon as he opened his mouth. Even if he said that he simply couldn't help but admire me or coveted my face, I wouldn't be too disgusted, but he insisted that he won two yuan in a row. Haha, it's ridiculous. People who can live in Room No. 1 of Wangchun Tower, would care about how many yuan he won in a row?"

There was sarcasm in every word Miss Tang said, and her aura was in sharp contrast to her soft appearance.

It happened that at this moment Xia Lin had just woken up and was lying on the bed, flipping through his phone out of boredom. He was rereading the rubbish novel he had written with relish. At this moment, he happened to see Ye Liangchen winning the top spot in the Yangzhou exam and meeting a beauty outside the city of Gusu.

"Ah? Fuck."

When seeing this, Xia Lin sat up from the bed and cursed, because the first girl Ye Liangchen met was Miss Tang Wanqiu, who came from Luoyang to do business.

It is said that the two met by chance on a black-sailed boat outside the city of Gusu, and Ye Liangchen won her heart with a good poem. At that time, Xia Lin thought that the plot he designed was so clever, but now when he looks back on it, he finds that it is even more vulgar than his own life, and it is unbearable.

How could anyone fall hopelessly in love with someone just because of a poem, except for the little princess, who is so young. How stupid would an adult be if he did that? It's like when we return to modern times, a girl fell in love with the person who wrote an essay titled "How Happy We Are on Spring Outing Today" because she saw it on the school bulletin board.

Although there is no comparison, the meaning is similar. In short, it is outrageous. Although it is possible to fall in love with someone because of a poem or an article, it is definitely just a beautification and imagination before meeting the real person.

After all, we have heard of celebrities or underground idols sleeping with their fans, but who has ever seen any online novel authors sleeping with their fans? The fan base is not small, but the probability of this happening is not as high as that of the president of a gaming guild.

"They won't meet now..."

Xia Lin is getting almost anxious now, he really likes Miss Tang. If it follows the normal process, by the time he finishes his work here and returns to the city, it will be at least three years later. By then, according to the plot, Miss Tang will have been a member of Ye Liangchen's harem for two and a half years.

However, he suddenly thought of a problem, that is, Ye Liangchen copied the poem from his mobile phone, but now his original mobile phone was in his hand, which meant that he could not copy the poem. Since he could not copy the poem, he would not take the initiative to participate in the poetry conference held in Suzhou. If he did not participate in the poetry conference, he would not meet Miss Tang.

Ah~~~I feel much better when I think about it this way.

Of course, Xia Lin actually knew that the chance of him meeting Miss Tang again was very slim, and even if he could meet her again, who knew if she would have been married.

But even so, he absolutely could not let that scumbag Ye Liangchen ruin him. Xia Lin already had a plan anyway. Once he had accumulated some strength, the first thing he would do after he got out was to deal with Ye Liangchen.

Just accuse him of plotting a rebellion, and then find an opportunity to execute him. Chop all the earthworms in his house vertically, and take all the bird eggs on the tree in front of his house and boil them in boiling water for ten minutes.

It is said that this person works out of anger. In order to cook the bird eggs for Ye Liangchen's house, Xia Lin sat up from the bed and shouted outside: "Sister Chuntao, if you have time, please accompany me for a walk. I want to go to the river to confirm the exact location of the workshop."

"I'm here." Chuntao walked out quickly: "Are we going now?"

"Well, thank you for your hard work, Sister Chuntao."
