Fan Chongkai was not interested in these things at this time, and he carefully wrote the most perfect answer in his heart, checked it from beginning to end, and then raised a sign to signal the invigilator to hand in the paper.

On the invigilator, Ji Min felt a little confused when she saw Fan Chongkai finishing so quickly. She couldn't say whether she was happy or sad. Judging from the situation of her invigilator over the past few years, the fastest answer was either a well-read poetry, a genius, or a ignorant slut.

Seeing Fan Chongkai's handsome appearance, Ji Min secretly prayed in her heart, hoping that it would be the first one.

At this time, Wu Daozi, the third student of Chen Buyi, felt a sense of coldness when he saw the question. Poetry and essays were not his specialty, and Chen Buyi once told him not to take too much attention to this exam, so he himself just took the exam with a try-and-see attitude.

He also knew that this kind of poem that refers to things naturally requires lying about things and expressing one's aspirations.

However, my expertise is painting, and I am not good at poetry and essays. Although I rack my brains, I can only talk smoothly and rhyme when I write, that's all.

After noon, everyone finished handing over the papers. The invigilator disrupted the order of the test papers in front of the candidates, and after binding them, he blurred the names.

Next, it is a very important test.

In this period, in order to prevent the markers from identifying the candidates based on their handwriting, or to deliberately write erroneous words on the test paper to mark them, a special copying staff will copy each answer, erase all traces of the candidates, and then hand them over to a special reviewer.

The reviewer selects the test papers that he thinks can be advanced, and then submits them to Ji Min, and finally decides.

After the test paper was collected, Ji Min waved his hand, someone stepped forward, banged and knocked on the gate of the tribute courtyard several times.

"The exam is over, open the door."

The candidates came out one after another.

Some were delighted, some were dejected.

Fan Chongkai quickly walked to Fan Yuankai and asked in a low voice: "Second, how are you answering?"

Fan Yuankai was a little amused and crying, "I really didn't expect my mentor to be so powerful. If I had known this, I would have been yesterday." Hearing this, Fan Chongkai shook his head helplessly.

"You, let me tell you what's good."

The two of them said as they walked out of the tribute court.

According to the examination arrangement, after taking the poetry exam today, take a day off tomorrow, and wait for the list to be published.

The list of people who can take the exam will be announced.

The two brothers, after returning to the inn, Fan Chongkai couldn't say anything about his excitement, "Our mentor is so amazing. I asked us to re-do the Danzeng Fu yesterday, and I did the exam today."

Fan Yuankai was a little annoyed. At this time, he realized that he had made a huge mistake yesterday. He did not prepare the alchemy poem seriously, and he was also rude and ridiculed Shen Buyi.

"Okay, since it's over, don't think about it. Let's prepare for the next game."

Fan Chongkai patted his younger brother's shoulder and comforted him softly.

At this time, Shen Mansion.

Feng Wu also wrote a lyrics and handed them to Chen Buyi's hand.

Looking at the nonsense words and sentences, Chen Buyi did not blame too much, but he felt a lot of touch.

This child's desire to study is really too strong, but after studying with He Zhizhang for a few days, he actually dared to try the questions for the imperial examination.

It is not difficult to see from his answers, but He Zhizhang really taught a lot of things in it.

"Feng Wu, you study hard. When you grow up, you will definitely become a Jinshi."

Shen Buyi comforted her softly.

The next day, at midnight, at the entrance of the Gongyuan, candidates and candidates checked one after another to see if the results were announced.

As the crowd gathered more and more, the atmosphere on the scene became a little warmer.

Some familiar picks greeted each other.

At this time, the Zhou Wen and Zhou Wu brothers also accompanied Yao Yi to the middle of these people. After all, Yao Chong was probably recognized by others, while Yao Yi seemed much more low-key.

The purpose of his trip is very simple, that is, to see the performance of his father’s students, and to see which of the candidates who performed well this year are among the candidates.

Can you make friends?

"Mr. Yao, long time no see!"

Suddenly a sound rang.

Yao Yi looked over and found it was Zhang Zijing.

"Oh, isn't this Mr. Zhang?"

The two of them smiled and greeted each other. After all, they are all officials of the same level now and they come with their own thoughts, so they said hello, tacitly.

The purpose of Zhang Zijing's trip was similar to Yao Yi, and he also came to call Song Jing to stand in front.

After all, the two are too young and are wearing casual clothes. The candidates around them naturally take it for granted that the two of them are also waiting for the results to be announced.

The two of them were talking indiscriminately.

Before we knew it, it was noon.

As the drums at noon passed, the gate of the Gongyuan slowly opened.

A group of officials came out one after another and kept greeting everyone crowded at the door.

"Everyone leans back and I'm going to make a list."

The crowd of soldiers guarding the door took a few big steps back consciously.

Several invigilators walked out with a smile on their faces holding the red list in their hands.

After all, it is a happy event, so of course you should be happier.

According to convention, although this time the list is not a good place to list, the first list means that the poems and essays of these people have been recognized by higher levels.

In other words, these people have already taken the lead in the first exam.

As soon as the first list was posted, Fan Yuankai was so happy that he burst into laughter.

But he still seemed very reserved. He pulled the corner of his elder brother's clothes a few times and whispered, "Brother, you, you are the first one."

Fan Chongkai wiped his eyes, looked carefully, and grinned.

That's right, the first place is Fan Chongkai's name.

Before he could speak, a young man who looked like a servant shouted excitedly: "Young Master, you have you!"

The sound was very loud, which attracted people around to look at each other.

Yao Yi could hear it naturally. He looked at the young man beside the servant, a little strange, and looked at Zhou Wen beside him with confusion.

Zhou Wen said softly: "Young Master, his name is Xue Yong, and he is the son of Xue Jiangtong, the prefect of Chenliu, after the former Prime Minister Xue Yuanchao!"

Yao Yi nodded and looked at the list. No wonder he was so excited. It turned out to be the second place.

At the same time, Zhang Zijing also noticed the movement here. He took a few steps, came to Xue Yong, and bowed with a smile and said, "I'm asking for it, brother!"

Xue Yong looked at him but didn't know him.

But today I was in a good mood, so I smiled and replied, "Brother, please, please!"

Zhang Zijing continued, "I will introduce myself. My name is Zhang Zijing. I dare to ask you for your honorary name."
