Chapter 98 Tao Yuchen (Part 1)

While he was angry with Tao Dalin's special treatment, someone suddenly patted him behind his back. He looked back silently and found that it was County Magistrate Zhang. He quickly sang a promise and smiled and said, "It turns out to be Uncle Zhang, do you still have to worry about this place?"

"It's so hard for life." County Magistrate Zhang grinned and said, "It was your father's job, but he ran to Nanjing to enjoy his fortune, so I have to hold on." He pointed and said, "When I got to my own ground, I was still standing at the door? Come in with me." Then he led Chen Si to the line and walked in.

I looked at the team that was invisible and thought to myself, "I was angry with others just now, but now it's the other person who is angry with me." Then I waved my hand and led Chen Jing and three classmates into the ceremony room.

There was a voice of indignation behind him: "Who is this time? There are five more!" "The four don't know each other, and one looks familiar..." "The one who first seemed to be the guy who plastered a gilded into a pot two years ago." "Yes, right, when he removed the trees in the river, I went to see it..." "He is so handsome, a little better than Tao Dalin." "What's the use of being good-looking? Can a skillful skill compare with other top scholars?" Obviously, a considerable number of people look down on those things... If they had seen the quick-witted talent when they saw the silence of pairs, they would not have said that.

Chen Jing was so angry that it was something he had always been proud of. He would curse when he turned around, but was pulled by silence and said softly: "Don't have ordinary knowledge." Then he dragged him into the ceremony room.

In fact, he had expected rumors at the beginning, but the situation between the father and son was really difficult at that time, so he finally agreed to participate in the battle with the Shanyin King Laohu, won the favor of the county magistrate, and completely got rid of poverty and humbleness. Only then did he finally have the opportunity to pursue what he wanted.

Moreover, at that time, except for Mr. Chen, almost no one said that he was "opportunistic, skillful, and erotic," and so on. Instead, he also gained some reputation as a "child prodigy" - because at that time he was just a poor child, so of course there was nothing wrong with doing that.

Now that he is old and is preparing to take the exam, someone has come up with it as a topic of discussion for him to "do not do his job"... Although it is only a topic of discussion at this stage, if he always fails the exam, Tumo Xingzi will become more powerful and ruin his reputation - for example, Xu Wei, an old prodigy in Shanyin, has become a foolish man and a foolish woman who have failed the provincial examination three times in a row, and has privately searched for the source of pleasure.

Silence was naturally as if he was watching all this, but he didn't want to refute it at all, because he knew very well that as long as he continued to play all the way in the exam room, everyone would have to hold back the strange words and put out the most respectful smile on his face!

After taking them in, County Magistrate Zhang went elsewhere. After being silent, he saw that the ritual room was modeled on the lobby of the county government, with a plaque of "The Great Person of Man". Behind the plaque, there were clerks in the ritual room. Two tables and chairs were placed on each side of the lower head, and four posted books were sat.

The five sitting and looked straight at the silent five, one-on-one, and asked about their name, age, history of the three generations, and whether their origins were innocent... If there were prostitution, good, soap, servants, servants, sedan chairmen, matchmakers, deliverymen, and pedicures within three generations of the family, they were all in the "unclear life experience", and they were not qualified to apply.

Also, whether the exam was during the Dingyou period, whether they were applying for the exam at the place of household registration, and whether they were indeed taking the exam by the candidates themselves. A total of more than a dozen items were asked, and after they were recorded one by one, they looked at their height and appearance, and wrote on a paper ticket: "Short body, round face, black face, and bearded" to describe the appearance characteristics of the candidates, and then pasted it on the back of the exam card, which is called "floating ticket".

But the description language is very vague. For example, the silent one says, "It's thin and slightly tall, with a white face and no beard, and has a very good appearance." Chen Jing's said, "It's moderate in figure, yellow face and slightly beard, and has a very strange appearance." It is impossible to tell a specific person in detail. It seems that this "floating vote" is just an auxiliary means.

After the floating ticket is posted behind the test card, the clerk asks them to sign and press their handprints on the front of the test card.

After the press, the clerk asked them whether they were willing to guarantee each other and solemnly told them that if one of them had acts such as impersonation, entrainment, intentional damage to the test paper, falsehood, concealed his life experience, and violated the discipline of the examination room, the others would be implicated, and the least they would not be allowed to apply for the exam within five years.

They knew about these situations in advance, so they nodded and said "willing", then stepped forward one by one, signed and pressed their fingerprints on other people's cards.

Silence was the first one. When he picked up the pen and wanted to write his name, he saw the county magistrate Zhang and returned and said, "Don't sign, the county magistrate has already found a good student for you to obtain insurance."

Silently, he held his pen and said, "This is not my own business, there are four classmates."

County Magistrate Zhang looked at the four of Chen Jing and waved his hand and said, "You go find another one. I will take the silent test card away." Then he picked up the license plate from the table and said to Chen, "Mr. County Master is waiting for you in the back hall."

Even though Chen Si couldn't say, 'You give me back.' He was embarrassed for a moment, Chen Jing quickly rescued the situation and said, "We already have eleven, so it's just right if you're free."

Silent smiled at him with gratitude and sued the other three, then followed County Magistrate Zhang out, walked through the etiquette gate, passed through the lobby, and walked towards the second hall.

Halfway through the way, County Magistrate Zhang laughed and said, "This is the care of the county master, don't misunderstand it." He said, "Only for outstanding candidates, the county magistrate will directly designate the students as insurance."

He nodded silently and said, "Student understands." He knew that this would reduce the human risk to zero, but it was contrary to his own personality, so he felt very dissatisfied.

By the time he arrived at the second hall, his mood had completely adjusted. He respectfully paid respect to the hall, the teaching staff present, and a handsome blue-shirted student, and then stood with Tao Dalin, who was in white.

County Magistrate Li was still the same, but his hair turned whiter. After County Magistrate Zhang took his seat, he smiled and said, "Today, call you two young men, Junze, to make a security deposit, and to let you get to know each other." As he said that, he smiled at the student named "Junze" and said, "The three of them are all the pillars of the Ming Dynasty. From now on, they will be very close to me."

The three of them first ordered the scholar twenty-six, Tao Dalin eighteen, and silence sixteen.

The scholar in blue clothes stood up and bowed to the two children in white clothes and said, "I am in Wu Dui, whose name is Junze, and I have met two juniors."

"Senior brother is polite. In the Xia Tao Dalin, whose name is Yuchen, I have met his junior brothers." The handsome Tao Dalin also smiled.
