I want to be a good minister

Chapter 183 Sudden changes in the first test of the king
"It's Mr. An Xiujun, who summoned a group of literati from Sitian Academy to eat, drink and have fun." The guards just came to report today, and An Xiujun brought the guards and several literati from the Wei family and the Lu family to set up a banquet in the courtyard. So I didn't care too much.

Lord Chengyang snorted coldly when he heard the words, he naturally knew what the purpose of Lord Anxiu was, and the next day would be the first test, and with the goods in the belly of the Crown Prince of Houzhao, he would naturally fail the first test.Therefore, An Xiujun acted even faster than him, and first made friends with Chunfeng Wensheng, who was very outstanding in the discipline of Sitian College.

Seeing this, he looked down on An Xiujun's actions.

"Find out the identities of these two people, see if you can find any clues, and focus on the people in Sitian Academy." Chengyang Jun said the next moment, waved his hand, nothing progressed, most of the He put all his energy into finding his mother, but after such a long time, there was no progress. Every time he got news, he was one step late.

Cen Xi's peach blossom wine immediately subdued Lu Lianhe and the others. The peach blossom wine tasted sweet and sweet, and there was a faint peach blossom sound. That rich peach blossom fragrance.

The aftertaste of making this peach blossom brew is very strong. Chunfeng Wensheng only drank three cups, knowing that the alcohol was not strong enough, but his face was already flushed, and Lu Lianhe was already drunk at the end of the drink.

On the other hand, Mr. An Xiu, who was sitting at the banquet, had one glass after another, still looking as usual. Even when he was leaving, Cen Xi was already slightly drunk and slept on the bamboo couch, and he didn't know when they left.

When Cen Xi woke up the next day, she felt regretful. Now that she was injured, she drank alcohol, so she didn't take anti-inflammatory drugs, but her thighs felt faintly swollen. This bad feeling made Cen Xi a little regret.

It's just that tomorrow is the first test, so Cen Xi gritted his teeth and didn't care. Instead, he did his homework carefully on the debate topic left by An Xiujun, and asked An Xiujun's people to send it to Sitian Academy in person.

On the morning of the third day, Cen Xi got up early in the morning, took off the light blue robe on his body, and revealed that the dress in the system looked similar, although it was not brocade, it was not as elegant and free as brocade. Obviously, if you take a closer look, the cloud patterns turn and flow, which is smooth and exquisite that cannot be achieved by human beings.

Cen Xi knew that the form of this debate was somewhat similar to the modern interview. The difference was that the interview was for the examiner alone, but the debate had an audience.

That being the case, images also play a very important role in debates. People are sensory animals. This is the experience Cen Xi has gained through countless exams and interviews.

Sitian Academy's initial exam is the most solemn event in the history of Sitian Academy.

The morning and evening bell on the top of Linshan Mountain had already been rung, and the bell sounded from the top of the mountain for a total of 49 times. Accompanied by Wen Sheng's steps up the mountain, everyone who was going to Sitian College became solemn unconsciously. Quickened the pace.

After the morning bell, the preliminary examination ceremony officially began. More than 300 literary students from Sitian College gathered in the academic circle to worship.Sitian Academy was founded by the Shu family, therefore, it has become a common practice to pay homage to the ancestors of the Shu family before each initial exam.

On the altar, Chang Qin, the dean of Sitian Academy, Cao Yinyi, Yun Rui, Jiang Yuansi, the vice-principals, and a group of outstanding teachers: Yun Zijin, Fan Xiuwen, He Jing.Department of Astronomy: Dai Tianqian, Lian Tong, Xiang Jingtong, Sun Boyi, and Chake of Cloud and Gas: Shu Zhan, Gu Yuxing, Gu Yuyue, Jiang Size, Cai Yu, etc. There are 36 officers and soldiers of the Sitian Academy, and seven college students More than ten people.

Down the steps is a group of literati, divided into teams by subjects. Cen Xi, Wei Chunfeng and others belong to the same subject of meteorological discourse.

Debates are in groups of two, and they have registered with the husband three days ago. After the ceremony, there is another procedure on the altar, which is to draw lots to determine the order of Wen Sheng's debates.

"Drawing lots—" Following Mr. Ling's serious voice, the atmosphere off the court suddenly became tense.The importance of the order of appearance has always been a battleground for military strategists.

Cen Xi followed the crowd with a calm expression. Rather than worrying about the order of appearance, Cen Xi was more worried about whether he could combine what he knew with the views expounded by those famous experts of this generation, so that people would look, and It's not so abrupt, but it feels different.

"It's our time—" Cen Xi only heard a whisper from his side, Cen Xi was taken aback, and sure enough, he saw that Lu Lianhe had turned around, and when he opened the number plate, No. 62, he immediately burst into a smile, and almost danced.

Cen Xi walked forward, the wooden box for drawing lots was on the altar, Cen Xi walked forward slowly, grabbed the inside of the wooden box, and opened it.

"An Xiujun and Cen Jing are in a group, No. 46—" The students at the side reported their numbers, and there was an uproar in the field. Is that Cen Jing?
Look, that is Cen Jing, a countryman who can become the most concerned person in the entire Sitian Academy in a short time. Those who have never seen Cen Xi are all looking up at the altar at this moment.

At this time, Cen Xi on the stage was dressed in blue. Although he was not in brocade or embroidered robes, he was not inferior to any young master.More young Wen Sheng from ordinary family backgrounds are even more keen-eyed, as if they see the hope of their ordinary Wen Sheng in Cen Xi.

"Chengyang Lord, Shen Qingtang's group, No. 38—" After that, there was another uproar, this, this Shen Qingtang is a leader in astrology and history, and he is actually in the same group as Chengyang Lord.

Hearing this, Mr. Anxiu bowed his head and smiled secretly, what a coincidence.

More than 160 numbers have been obtained. Sitian College has set up eight debating rooms, which are conducted simultaneously. Each debating room has six gentlemen, but there is no restriction on the audience. Wen students can enter any debating room at will.

As soon as the three o'clock of Yinshi arrived, the debate started on time. All the literati, gradually affected by the tense atmosphere, took out their books one after another, hoping to hug Buddha's feet at this moment.

And just before the debate was about to start, the sound of gongs and drums rang loudly in Sitian Academy, and when everyone didn't expect it, a group of people had already entered Sitian Academy quickly.

"Master Shen is here—"

"Master Shen?——" There was an uproar in the crowd, but laughter came from the crowd.

"Chief Chang, I've caught up with you—" The people standing on the altar were also taken aback. Even if the king sent someone to attend the initial test, he would notify in advance, and this situation, since the initial test of Sitian Academy , only appeared twice, this is the third time

"Too bad, the lord actually sent someone from the Shen family. It's over. The Shen family likes to show off their knowledge the most. The questions of the initial test must be changed." Lu Lianhe wailed.

"Master Shen—" Yuanchang took a step forward, with some doubts.

"Hahaha, I'm sorry, I came here in a hurry, and I didn't have time to report in advance. Fortunately, I didn't miss the business. This is the king's will." The person who came here was the nephew of Shen Lu from the Shen family. Shen Guangqi, a bachelor.

Hearing this, Cen Xi frowned slightly. At this time, he turned his head and glanced at An Xiujun who was at the side.

"Shen family?" An Xiujun bowed his head and said nothing, this was beyond his expectation, and appearing in such a haste did not give others a chance to operate.

It seems that Lord Chengyang came prepared.
