Chapter 1124 Examination

? There will be three consecutive exams, each for three days, with a one-day break in between.

This time it is Enke, and Yunqing and Yuxi both attach great importance to selecting suitable talents for use.

In a blink of an eye, the test is over. The six officials selected by Ling Tongpu, Mu Jingsi and others began to mark the examination papers.

This day Liu'er invited Cui Qianqian into the palace, seeing her frowning, she asked: "What's wrong?" The wedding date has been set, there should be no more accidents.

Qianqian said: "Ah Zheng fell ill. I heard from my mother that he felt a little uncomfortable after the second exam." How could Jiang Yizheng give up after finishing the exam. Even though it was uncomfortable, he still chose to continue taking the exam. As soon as he finished the exam, he fainted and was carried out by the soldiers in the exam room.

When Yurong saw Jiang Yizheng who was burned unconscious, she almost died of fright.

In memory, Jiang Yizheng's body was indeed a little thin. Liu'er asked: "Is there any serious problem?"

Cui Qianqian said happily: "Fortunately, the Jiang family has invited the doctor long ago, so the illness has not been delayed. If the doctor has not been invited, it must have been delayed." No one knows what will happen at that time.

"Get a doctor first? Did my aunt know that Cousin Zheng would fall ill?" This is too unpredictable.

Liu Er was puzzled.

Cui Qianqian shook her head and said, "It's only now that I know that after every exam, I would fall ill. Some people even fainted in the exam room and had to be carried out of the exam room."

Liu Er was very puzzled and asked, "How could this happen?" One or two people who were not in good health were justified.

It's not quite right for blockbusters to fall ill.

"During the exam, you can only wear single clothes, not cotton-padded jackets and woolen clothes. The quilt is thin, and you have to stay inside for three days and can only eat raw food. After nine days, how many people can stand it?" Cui Qianqian didn't know the imperial examination before. It can be so difficult. After knowing it, I also feel incredible.

Liu'er was very surprised and said: "How come?" It's too exaggerated not to be able to wear single clothes. It is still relatively cold in mid-March. At night, she should still have a quilt!

"Who says it's not! I heard that the rural examination is also like this." It's just that this time the rural examination is scheduled for October, and the weather is still relatively hot, so it's not so obvious.

Liu'er asked: "Then should I ask the imperial physician to go to the Jiang Mansion to show my cousin Zheng?" The imperial physician's medical skills must be better than the doctors invited by the Jiang Mansion.

Cui Qianqian was also not polite, nodded and said, "More Second Princesses." The imperial physician's medical skills are superb, and they must be better than the doctors hired by the Jiang family.

Liu'er was in charge of the palace affairs, and it was only a matter of one word for the imperial physician to go to Jiangfu.

When Yurong heard that the imperial physician was coming, she thought it was sent by Yuxi at first. When she found out that it was Cui Qianqian who was begging Liu'er, she immediately felt a little complicated. Marrying a powerful daughter-in-law is very helpful to his son, but if he can't restrain himself, he will have to live by his daughter-in-law's face.

After hesitating for a long time, Yurong finally told Brother Zheng about this: "Child Qianqian has a heart." If she and Cui Qianqian do not get along well in the future, and the two have conflicts, the most difficult thing is Brother Zheng Son. In order not to make it difficult for his son, he still gets along well with Cui Qianqian. If she is strong, just give in.

Brother Zheng sweated after taking the medicine, and his energy was a little bit better than yesterday. Hearing that Cui Qianqian entered the palace to seek the imperial physician, he was a little happy. But thinking about the exam, his mood became depressed again: "Mom, I'm afraid I won't do well in this exam."

"No, my son will definitely pass the second-class exam." Brother Zheng's knowledge is very solid, and Ling Tongpu will definitely pass the second-class exam without any mistakes.

Brother Zheng has no confidence in himself. As soon as this person got sick, negative emotions flooded up: "If the ranking is too bad, I'd rather fail." It's only now that he regrets it, and he should have given up if he didn't try to be brave. It is better to fail the ranking than to get the top three in the exam.

"Don't think about it, the most important thing for you now is to take good care of your illness, and the rest will be discussed after the results come out." After finishing speaking, Yurong tucked the quilt for Brother Zheng: "Zheng'er, even if you are really a top three, you have to take good care of your mother." Mother is just a child like you. If you have a long and short mother, you will not be able to live.

"

Brother Zheng said very ashamedly: "Mother, it's the boy's fault, the boy made you worry."

"It doesn't matter if you can't become an official, as long as you are safe and healthy, mother will be content." This is Yurong's sincere words. She has no big ambitions, as long as the child is safe and healthy, she doesn't care if there is no order.

Brother Zheng nodded and said, "Don't worry, mother, I will get better soon."

After drinking the medicine, Brother Zheng fell asleep again.

Before dinner, Liu'er told Yuxi and Yunqing about the news of Jiang Yizheng's illness: "Mother, Qianqian said that the examinee was eating, drinking, and messing around in a small space where he couldn't even turn around. Mother, this is Really?"

Yu Xi nodded.

"It's no wonder that some people fainted in the exam room. After the exam, many people fell ill." If it was her, she might not be able to hold on.

Yun Qing didn't agree with Liu'er's words: "After all, these people are still in poor health. Dad and Uncle Feng were hunted down by the enemy back then and hid in the deep jungle. In order to avoid the enemy's pursuit, we They can’t make a fire. When they’re hungry, they eat bark leaves and all kinds of raw meat. When they’re cold, they hug each other to keep warm. After half a month, the pursuers gave up and left. To be like this group of scholars, my father would have died a long time ago. It's been a hundred times, and there are still a few of you siblings."

Brother You looked at Yunqing with admiration, and asked, "Father, what kind of meat have you eaten raw? Rabbit or roe deer?"

"Some rabbits and roe deer are lucky to eat. Most of them are worms. If they catch mice or snakes, they will eat them." There are no picks, and they eat whatever they catch.

Looking at Liu'er whose face was turning blue, Yu Xi hurriedly stopped Brother You, not allowing him to continue speaking.

"Mr. Pang said that those foreigners eat sliced ​​fish and meat, and drink blood directly!" After finishing speaking, Brother You looked at Liu'er and said, "Second Sister, it's not for you to eat, but to hear what's wrong with you." .” His second sister was the most delicate. When a person is in a desperate situation, in order to survive, he wonders how much he should pay attention to.

Liu'er doesn't want to argue with Brother Yu, no matter if she wins or loses, she will suffer in the end.

Yuxi said to Yunqing: "It's really cold now, I think this exam time should be changed."

Yun Qing disagreed: "You can fall ill after every exam, so you can imagine how poor your health is. How can such a person be an official?" If he is not in good health, how will he handle government affairs at that time.

Yuxi smiled and said: "It's easy for you to say. For three days and three nights, I was nested in a palm-sized place, eating, drinking, and messing with it. Think about it, how bad the environment is. If it were you,

After nine days, I probably won't be able to hold it. "

"Speaking of it, they are still in poor health. If it is Qihao or Brother Yu, you can see if they will fall ill." The health of his children is very good.

Yu Xi smiled and said: "I'm really not sure about this, how about Brother Xuan and Brother Yu to try it?"

Brother You didn't want to be abused, so he hurriedly said: "I think it's a bit inhumane to only wear single clothes. You can let them wear cotton clothes or cloaks!"

Qihao said: "We don't let them wear cotton-padded cloaks, because we are afraid they will hide things in it to cheat. We let them eat, drink and drink in one room, because we are afraid that other people in the examination room will have too much contact with them, so that they will cheat." Qihao knows much more about it than Brother Yu.

Brother Yu didn't say anything, and said directly: "I didn't do anything wrong, I don't want to be locked up in a cell for nine days and nine nights." Drinking cold water, eating raw food, wearing single clothes and a thin quilt, it's not a crime!

Yuxi passed Yunqing, looked at Qihao and asked: "Ah Hao, I will change the date of the test, do you agree or disagree?"

"When does the mother want to change it?" Although Yunqing's words made some sense, the bad environment of the exam was not conducive to the candidates' performance!

Yu Xi thought for a while and said: "May is just neither hot nor cold. If the exam time is arranged at that time, the candidates will suffer a lot less."

Brother Yu interjected, and said, "Wouldn't it be colder for Tongshi to be in February? Do you want to change it too?"

Yu Xi laughed: "Tong Shi doesn't need to be locked up in a cell for three days and three nights, what can be changed."

Yun Qing said: "Let's discuss this matter with Master Tan and Master Shen!" They are all people who have passed the scientific examination and have the most right to speak.

Yuxi nodded.

In a blink of an eye, the test results came out. Before the imperial list was posted, the outside was already crowded with people.

Shi Bing had already occupied a favorable position, and as soon as the imperial list was posted, he started to look down from the first place. After watching it for a long time, I still haven't seen Jiang Yizheng's name, and my heart is half cold. Shi Bing was thinking in his heart, but don't be a top three, otherwise his father may be afraid that his condition will get worse if he can't stand it.

Yurong was also waiting anxiously at home: "Hurry up and see if Shi Bing is back?"

Hong Hua said: "Madam, don't worry, our master is so good at writing, he will definitely be able to pass high school."

"It's not enough just to be in the middle class. If it's the top three, Zheng Geer will be hit." Although Zheng Geer said that he would rather fail the ranking. But half of her son's life was lost in this exam, and another exam would not kill her.

Just as he was talking, he heard Shi Bing's loud voice outside: "I've won, ma'am, our master has won."

Soon, Shi Bing ran into the living room, and said to Yu Rong, "Ma'am, our master has won."

Yu Rong asked nervously: "What ranking?"

"Eighty-two." A total of 300 people were selected for the examination. There are three people in the first class, one hundred and twenty-eight people in the second class, and one hundred and sixty-nine people in the third class. Jiang Yi got eighty-two in the political examination, among the top two.

Although the ranking is relatively low, but fortunately it is the second best, not the third best. Yu Rong first asked Shi Bing to tell Brother Zheng the good news, and then called his mother-in-law: "Go to Cui's house to announce the good news."

Zheng Geer heard that he was ranked eighty-two, and said with some disappointment: "Is there more than eighty?" Those who originally wanted to stay in the Imperial Academy should not think about this ranking.

Shi Bing said: "My lord, it's better than failing the top three rankings." Since childhood, he has followed Brother Zheng, and he is not afraid of taboos.

Hearing this, Brother Zheng laughed: "You are right. Although the ranking is not good, it is still better than the top three!" it is good. What happened during those nine days, I am afraid when I think about it. That place is really not full of people.

That day when he heard that Zheng Geer was sick for the exam, Tong felt that there was no hope. Now knowing that he passed the exam, Mrs. Tong was very happy, and immediately rewarded the person who reported the letter, and the servants of Cui's mansion could also receive an extra month's money.

Telling Cui Qianqian the news, Tong took her hand and said, "Qianqian, you are now the wife of a Jinshi." In this age when everything is inferior and only high-level students are educated, it is a matter of glory for the ancestors to be able to pass the Jinshi exam. Although the Cui family is now a hereditary marquis, they are still in awe of scholars.

Cui Qianqian was also very happy: "I thought I would fail this time."

After finishing speaking, Cui Qianqian said with regret again: "If Ah Zheng hadn't been sick, he might have won the first class!" Even if he is sick, he can pass the second class. If you are not sick, your grades will definitely be better. Yijia is not impossible.

Tong said with a smile: "It's very good if you pass the exam. Ah Zheng knows that he passed the exam, and he relaxes, and his body will naturally recover soon." The wedding date is set in May. If Jiang Yizheng's illness has not recovered by then, maybe the marriage will be delayed.

Cui Qianqian nodded slightly.

Mama Qian came in and said, "Madam, a letter has been delivered from Pick City." After speaking, she handed the letter to Mrs Tong with both hands.

After reading it, Mrs. Tong said to Cui Qianqian with joy on her face: "Your sister-in-law said in the letter that she will leave for Beijing on March 8th. Now, she is already on her way." During this time, she missed her granddaughter as much as she wanted. sharp. Now that I can see my granddaughter soon, I can't be unhappy.

When Tong gave birth to her youngest son, she really wanted to have another daughter, but who knew that she would not be able to conceive. After the sister-in-law of the Tong family knew about it, she wanted to adopt her daughter to her, but unfortunately, the Tong family didn't agree. It's a hassle if you don't get it right. Later, when Cui Qianqian came to Cui's house, she loved her as if she were her own daughter. So after Tang gave birth to her daughter, she was very happy.

Tang Jinxiu set off in early March, and Cui Qianqian was naturally happy that she would definitely be able to reach the capital before she got married: "Today is really a double blessing."

It's a pity that Cui Qianqian couldn't be happy at night. Because her biological mother, Zhu Shi, came to her door.

Cui Qianqian said with a livid face, "Mother, I don't want to see her." In her heart, Mrs. Zhu was already dead.

Mrs. Tong touched Cui Qianqian's head and said, "Qianqian, she conceived and gave birth to you in October. If you don't see her, outsiders will definitely say you are unfilial. When it comes to the Jiang family, what do you tell Mrs. Jiang and Ah Zheng to think about it?" You?" When Cui Qianqian was ten years old, her biological mother Zhu Shi came to see Cui Qianqian, and Tong Shi scolded her bloody when she found out. Now that she has scruples, she will let people lead Zhu Shi in.

"She really knows how to pick the time." After saying this, Qianqian showed a mocking smile: "Since you can't avoid it, then see you!" If she doesn't see her this time, who knows if the woman will go to Jiang's house to meet her Dear. At that time, her face will be completely lost.

Tong Shi hesitated for a moment and said, "Your mother didn't come here alone, she brought a boy with her." As for the purpose of Zhu Shi's visit this time, Tong Shi didn't ask. Qianqian has grown up too, so she should handle this matter by herself.

Cui Qianqian said in a low voice: "Don't worry, mother, I will take care of it." (To be continued.)
