Chapter 149 148 Get what you want
The hurried footsteps outside the door suddenly stopped. Wei Guangde was not the only one who heard it. The room was quiet. At this moment, most of the candidates looked at the three officials announcing the good news at the door.
At this time, these officials, who usually looked down upon with disdain, now became a favorite in the eyes of this large group of scholars and scholars, especially the bright red official clothes they were wearing, which looked so festive.
The lobby was unusually quiet, you could hear a pin drop, and even the faint sound of footsteps in the distance did not break the tranquility.
After the three officials entered the door, they quickly looked around at the people in the lobby. It was obvious that they could not find them. There were so many talented people in the room. The leader took a piece of red news from the person behind him, unfolded it gently and shouted to them. Read:
"Good news in the rural examination. Congratulations to Mr. Wei Guangde, Wei Guangde of Jiujiang, Jiangxi Province. He ranked 95th on the official list of Yimao High School in the rural examination."
"boom"
As the official quickly read the good news in his hand, when he raised his head, he felt a little stupid.
What the hell are you doing here, why are you standing up?
Who should I give the good news to?
But the next moment he knew who Mr. Wei was.
At this time, I saw these talented men in their twenties and thirties all saluting a young man who was sitting there motionless.
"Congratulations."
"Congratulations to Brother Wei Xian, you are now a candidate."
"Brother Wei, that's awesome. You're on the list. Get the good news soon."
Happy words kept ringing in my ears, it was really noisy, too noisy.
Wei Guangde said in his heart, and then felt his shoulders being gently shaken.
Wei Guangde subconsciously turned his head and saw that it was Lao Kan. At this moment, this handsome young man in his twenties was smiling like a chrysanthemum. He looked so awkward.
"Congratulations, Brother Wei is really amazing. He is a 16-year-old master."
While Lao Kan was still talking there, he suddenly felt the hand on Wei Guangde's shoulder lose its support, and saw Wei Guangde suddenly stand up.
“Labour and management are in trouble.”
Wei Guangde felt that his body was a little out of control, and he couldn't help raising his hands and shouting loudly.
Then he sat down on the chair again, feeling that the strength in his body seemed to be drained, and his consciousness gradually became clear again.
Yes, the newspaper was talking about me just now. My household registration was originally a military registration, so naturally I applied for Jiujiang Wei. However, the previous county examination, government examination and hospital examination, because I was from Peng Ze, so I was assigned to Peng Ze. quota.
In the Wei Institute, the imperial court did not give quotas for scholars.
"Zhang Ji."
After Wei Guangde recovered from his ecstasy, he shouted loudly to his followers.
"Master, the little one is here."
Now my master has passed the imperial examination in high school, haha. The master I follow is the master of the imperial examination. He won the imperial examination when he was only sixteen years old. There is still a lot of time in the future to take the imperial examination and become the top scholar.
At this moment, the only people in the lobby who were really happy were Wei Guangde and Zhang Ji.
Everyone else was smiling, but Wei Guangde wasn't sure how happy they were in their hearts.
"Give me a reward."
After saying that, Wei Guangde was afraid that Zhang Ji would misunderstand and give him less, so he continued: "Give them ten taels of silver."
"Ah? Yes, sir."
Now Zhang Ji is no longer called Master Wei Guangde. If the young master wins the imperial examination, he must be called Master.
Come down, should I ask the master for a red envelope for lip modification? ? ?
Thinking so, Zhang Ji's movements were not slow. He took out two five-liang silver ingots from his arms and handed them directly to the official. He handed over the money with one hand and received the good news with the other.
Without looking, Zhang Ji turned around and held Wei Guangde in front of him with both hands.
"Master, this is your good news."
"good."
Wei Guangde said, reaching out and taking it, opening it and taking a look.
That's right, it's my own good news.
He closed it again and put it on the table. At this time, Wei Guangde remembered the congratulations from the classmates around him, and immediately stood up like his butt was burning again, and bowed to the scholars around him.
It is very, very rude to take so long to return the favor.
"I'm sorry, brothers, I was so happy just now. Please don't be offended."
Indeed, Wei Guangde is the youngest candidate from Jiujiang Prefecture who came to Nanchang to take the provincial examination this time, and seems to be the youngest scholar in the entire Jiangxi.
"I just hung up on the back of a car, and you are so happy. If the Golden Palace Chuanlu wins the first prize next year, will you still ask the emperor to arrange an imperial doctor for you, haha?"
Lao Kan didn't take it seriously and just laughed and joked loudly.
Well, these words dispelled the uneasiness that many people felt before.
Indeed, as Wei Guangde himself said, he was only sixteen years old, and it was normal for him to lose his composure after being ecstatic when he knew he had won the election. If it were him?
Be steady, you must be steady.
Well, at this time, regardless of whether they were on the list or not, other people in the room began to remind themselves in their hearts that their good news would arrive soon, so they must hold steady and not be like Wei Guangde who was so happy.
I can be forgiven for being young.
After everyone sat down again, the atmosphere in the inn began to become lively. Jiujiang Mansion was finally getting into trouble. With the first one, the second one was not far away.
No one thinks that his literary talents are inferior to Wei Guangde's, so now is the time to try his luck.
This is the voice of all the scholars in the room at this moment.
Several teams of messengers came through the inn door again, and everyone sighed quietly.
"You're really lucky to be on the list at the end of the list."
At this time, Lao Kan approached Wei Guangde and said.
"Yes, I finally passed the exam, and I have the honor to see my parents when I go home."
Wei Guangde was very sad.
"You boy, you don't speak human words at a young age. The one here has no face to see his parents, and he has not sorry for his ancestors. He just failed to pass the exam for the time being."
Lao Kan was very unhappy with Wei Guangde's words, but he just replied in a low voice.
This moment was special, and he was afraid of making other people unhappy by talking too much.
At this moment, there were footsteps outside the door again, and soon they stopped outside the inn.
As three newspaper men in red official uniforms entered the door, the lobby that was buzzing just now became quiet again.
"Good news in the rural examination. Congratulations to Mr. Shen of Shen Liangdong, Dehua County, Jiujiang Prefecture. He ranked 87th in the high school Yimao Township Examination."
Shen Liangdong is also on the list.
Wei Guangde hurriedly bowed and congratulated Shen Liangdong at the table next to him, repeating what they had just said to him.
Although everyone is a master of lifting people, I am at the bottom of the ladder and others rank higher than me.
The three officials happily received the wedding money from Shen Liangdong's entourage and were extremely happy.
Sure enough, Li San's team didn't lie before. The candidates in this inn are really rich.
Shen Liangdong's family was not bad either. He was so happy that he, like Wei Guangde, directly asked his servants to reward him with ten taels of silver.
At this time, other people in the room, some whose family conditions were slightly inferior, or who did not have much cash with them, were all secretly cursing Wei Guangde and Shen Liangdong.
In the past, a few taels of silver was the only way to reward someone.
Now it's good, under Wei Guangde's leadership, ten taels of silver seems to be enough.
