Huang Mei is old and since she has retired, she will naturally not go to Beijing at any time. However, he still has many old relationships in Beijing. Qi Xuansu has to visit him one by one this time.

The so-called successor of the robe and mantle, and the inheritance of knowledge is second. The key is that the connections accumulated over the years are generally passed on to the son. Unfortunately, Huang Mei's son died early and his daughter cannot be admitted to the imperial examination, so he can only pass it on to his disciples and son-in-law.

However, people like connections cannot be accepted just by wanting to take them. If you are useful to me, I am also useful to you, this is considered a connection. Therefore, Huang Mei asked Yin Zhengxin to be admitted to the Juren for a reason. Only when the Juren has crossed this threshold. Considering that Yin Zhengxin is not only a Juren, but also a Jie Yuan, and is not old, it means a bright future. Therefore, even if a person with a higher status than Yin Zhengxin is willing to make friends with Yin Zhengxin, even if this connection is barely accepted, as for whether he can develop into his own connections, it depends on how far Yin Zhengxin can go.

This is a big deal. Huang Mei sent her trusted butler who had been with him for many years to go to Beijing, but she still felt that it was not enough. After all, the old servant was a little inferior to his blood relationship. In the end, Huang Mei asked Huang Rong to go with him. When he was in the capital, Huang Rong had seen these old friends with Huang Mei and could visit him in the name of visiting Uncle Shi Bo.

Yin Zhengxin is a native of Wuzhou. When talking about Wuzhou in the world, when you mention Wuzhou, you will think of the Shangqing Mansion, Yunjinshan Dazhen Mansion, which is the unparalleled south and the first in Xijiang.

In the Confucian world, Wuzhou should not be underestimated. It is a place where the literary style is prosperous. How strong is the literary style? Let's put it this way, when the case of the North and South List broke out, all the northerners were not selected, and no one on the South List was selected. Wuzhou people were far ahead and occupied the vast majority. Even if Emperor Taizu started a big killing for this, and when the next term was held, the top three were all from Ji'an Prefecture in Wuzhou. In the second year of Emperor Taizong, the top seven were from Wuzhou.

Half of the cabinet members come from Wuzhou.

It can be said that Wuzhou is a place where Confucianism and Taoism are blooming.

It was also a coincidence that Qi Xuansu thought of looking for Zhang Yuelu in Wuzhou, but he couldn't find it. He took the opportunity to select people in Wuzhou and chose Yin Zhengxin. It was precisely because most of the old monks of the court in the dynasty came from Wuzhou that Yin Zhengxin could meet a noble person like Huang Mei. If it were other states, even if they had this idea, they might not have the luck, after all, the probability was different.

Yin Zhengxin had already made an appointment with several imperial examination candidates to take the exam. He set out from Wuzhou and went to Jinling Mansion first to meet with the juren from other prefectures here. Then everyone teamed up to book a big boat and took a boat north together. Usually, they were on the boat. There were no dilapidated temples or wilderness shops. Even if they docked, it was a big city and a big town.

Although Huang Rong is a female family member, the passenger ship is large enough that there is no need to worry about men and women's defense. More importantly, the Confucian school is now very different. Neo-Confucianism is gradually declining and the study of mind is emerging. In this regard, the study of mind is still relatively open-minded.

The journey is really not short, even if there is a passenger ship, it is inevitable that the journey will be exhausted.

Finally, when I arrived at the imperial capital, I didn’t find an inn to live there casually, nor was I driven out by the shopkeeper after losing my house. Instead, I lived in different guilds. Yin Zhengxin is from Wuzhou, so I lived in Wuzhou. The disciples from Wuzhou all lived here. They could make friends and socialize, and discuss articles and discuss knowledge with each other.

Yin Zhengxin is very busy. In addition to these things, he also wants to visit various adults with Huang Rong and try his best to get into this circle.

In this process, money or land is the second best. Qi Xuansu’s goal is very big, and he focuses on the entire world chessboard.

The immortals make a move to stir up the world's general trend, is it for this ordinary thing? The key is to act as a wisp of souls for each of the "goods" of the chess.

Yin Zhengxin sets off in the first month and arrives in the capital at the end of the month. The imperial examination is the imperial examination in the beginning of March. Because the imperial examination date is set in the spring of March of the following year after the provincial examination, it is also called "Spring Examination", which is distinguished from "Autumn Examination".

Many people will follow the spring exam in March of the following year after the August autumn exam.

Yin Zheng was delayed for a year in his heart. After he got the first year of Jie Yuan, he did not participate in the spring exam the next year, but was busy with marriage. However, he had a court of honor this time, so he went to Beijing to take the exam. It has been a year and a half since he participated in the autumn exam.

The examination was also called "Liwei". Every year in Chen, Xu, Chou, and Wei, the examination was divided into three categories, the first four-book questionnaires, and one five-character and eight-rhyme regular verse. The second classic questionnaires are five chapters. The third part is the five-daemic example. The third part is the five-daemic example. The first part is called Gongshi, and the first name is Huiyuan, which is the second part of "Sing Three Yuans", and all Gongshi participated in the palace examination.

As for the palace examination, all the tribute scholars became Jinshi through the palace examination chaired by the emperor himself. Jinshi was divided into three grades, one grade and three, and were awarded the title of Jinshi, namely the top scholar, the second grade, and the first prize. The top scholar was the last one of three consecutive yuan.

Several people of the second grade were given the Jinshi, accounting for about one-third of the candidates; several people of the third grade were given the Jinshi, accounting for about two-thirds of the candidates; the first name of the second grade was called "Chuanlu". After the palace examination, the name of the new Jinshi, the first and second grade were written on yellow paper, and the first and second grade were posted to inform the world, so it was called "Golden List Title".

Generally speaking, the March imperial examination will be held, the April examination will be released, and the May palace examination will be held.

Qi Xuansu arrived in Beijing at the end of the first lunar month, and it only took a little more than a month to complete the whole plan.

This time passed in a blink of an eye, and the imperial examination came. The first game was the ninth day of the first day, the second game was the twelfth day, and the third game was the fifteenth day.

As the saying goes, the way of heaven rewards hard work. Yin Zhengxin did nothing in this month, and used it to make connections. It would be fine if he was really a genius, but Yin Zhengxin's foundation was just a little talent, and Qi Xuansu was not Qin Lingge. After three rounds of trials, he almost made a fool of himself.

When the rankings were released in April, Yin Zhengxin was at the bottom of the third list, not to mention winning three consecutive dollars, he almost lost the title.

Even as a chess player, Qi Xuansu frowned, obviously because he made a mistake. Fortunately, he was lucky and there was room for recovery.

The chess audience was also a little nervous.

If Yin Zhengxin fails the exam here, he will have to wait until his next exam, and the gap with Li Zhixing will widen. One step will slow down one step. The key is that Qi Xuansu has one more plunge, which means he is in a disadvantage in all respects, and it may be difficult to turn the tables.

After the results were released, life was full of things. Some people looked pale, without any blood, and they almost fainted. This was obvious that they were the ones who failed the results. Some people's faces turned red and their bodies were trembling, so this was the top spot on the list.

Fortunately, Yin Zhengxin is not very old, and even if he ranks low, he still has a bright future. What's more, there is a palace examination, which is the key.

Yin Zhengxin's ranking is likely to be inconsistent with the CEO's wishes. If it is in line with the emperor's wishes, it is not impossible to directly target the top scorer.

The results were released in April, and there was still one time before the May palace examination. Yin Zhengxin learned his lesson, studied hard, sharpened his guns in the face of battle, and was not happy.

However, some social events are still unavoidable, such as classmate gatherings, thank-you staff, etc.

Yin Zhengxin's master and Huang Mei are still old acquaintances, named Liu Lian, and are now a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. If it weren't for this master, Qi Xuansu would have lost his name.

As for how Liu Lian could recognize Yin Zhengxin's articles, of course, it was not cheating, but literary style. Yin Zhengxin studied with Huang Mei for so long, and it was not in vain. Even if he lost his reputation, he could still see one or two of them from his literary style. This is also the main reason why Wuzhou people dominate the list.

Qi Xuansu used Yin Zhengxin's qi to find that the energy of the meeting was in his body this time, and the dragon energy was faint. He was actually a person with great fortune with a precious fate.

Although it is not yet a son of luck, it is also a son of heaven. If he has not died young, he will definitely do something in the future.

Qi Xuansu thought a little and roughly understood that he took action to change Yin Zhengxin's fate at the cost of falling one's son, which led to the backlash of the immortal "Tian Chess Game". So a person with great fortune in this world came into being. He had no luck at first, but he also had luck at this time. This person's life trajectory also shifted, resulting in various variables.

To put it more bluntly, this is the one who is here to block Yin Zhengxin.

Yin Zhengxin's almost failed the exam this time, and maybe it was related to this person.

If Qi Xuansu had not been well arranged in the early stage and boarded Huang Mei's ship, he would have produced all kinds of backlash, and would have almost successfully blocked it.

Qi Xuansu specially marked this person, named Zhao Yan, who, like Yin Zhengxin, was both from a poor family.

After Yin Zhengxin thanked his master, she returned to the Wuzhou Guild Hall, but Huang Rong was not there. She had martial arts skills, and was not a woman in the inner house who could not leave the door in the traditional sense. When Yin Zhengxin was not there, she would also walk around the capital. After all, this is at the foot of the emperor, and Huang Rong also grew up here since childhood and was very familiar with it.

Not long after, Huang Rong came back and talked to Yin Zhengxin about an interesting story. There was a demon named Zhang in the capital who was good at face-to-face. Recently, a prophecy was rumored: Don’t be complacent in the real dragon dragon python, and the white clothes might be killed together.

What does this mean?

Because this is a world with dragon energy as its fundamentals, the number and fortune of people with great fortune can be manifested as dragon pythons. The dragon python here may not actually refer to dragons and snakes, but may also refer to people with such fortune.

Who does the real dragon refer to? It is the emperor of the current dynasty? This is a rebellion.

Or is it the real dragon that replaced this court?

The rise of dragons and snakes can be regarded as a chaos in the world.

The sky produces murderous intent, and the stars change to stay; the earth produces murderous intent, and the dragon and snake rise to land. The human produces murderous intent, and the sky turns upside down.

The master of chess watching said for the first time: "Variables have appeared."

The chessboard is not just a chessboard, it is not allowed to roam Qi Xuansu and Qin Lingge at will. The immortals themselves must maintain the normal development of this story and will spontaneously reject the immortals' intervention.

In fact, the same is true in the real world. The immortals outside the sky cut out their incarnation and experienced tribulations, and it is very taboo to interfere too much in the world. The immortals who are still in the world are one thing, and the immortals who have ascended and returned are another thing, which can easily cause the repulsion of the way of heaven.
