Chapter 269: Imperial Examination and Poor Scholars(2/2)
Fan Zhen and Wang Chou heard that they were arguing over the imperial court and showed disgrace, and then the three of them withdrew from the palace.
After Wang Gui said goodbye to the emperor, he went to Ouyang Xiu's house.
Two days after the provincial examination results are released.
Zhang Shi asked Zhang Qiu to find Zhang Yue, but learned that he was not in Taixue, nor did he go drinking and socializing with his classmates in Taixue.
Even his classmates didn’t know where Zhang Yue had gone.
It turned out that Zhang Yue had not gone anywhere in the past two days, but was living near Taixue, in the house originally arranged for him by the Wu family.
Before Zhang Yue passed the provincial examination, he went to this house only a handful of times.
But after passing the exam, Zhang Yue didn't go anywhere. He even refused to socialize with his classmates and stayed in this house with Huang Lu to prepare for the imperial examination.
The imperial examination is scheduled for February 27th.
Before this, there are still more than twenty days to go.
Since Jiayou refused to give up the imperial examination in the second year of his reign, many Jinshi candidates have disapproved of the imperial examination.
That's right, it is generally not possible to give up in imperial examinations, but if the examinee really wants to die, there is nothing to stop him. It is like insulting the emperor in the paper, no one can save you, and he will definitely be punished.
The next level is the fifth level.
As we all know, after the imperial examination, all candidates are divided into five grades.
The first and second classes are awarded and awarded. The third class is awarded by origin. The fourth and fifth classes are awarded by the same origin.
However, in the palace examination, the status of being backward was not eliminated. Instead, the first and second grades were changed to the same birth status, the third and fourth grades were the same, and the fifth grade was the same.
Among them, there are articles in the fifth category that are really poorly written and make major mistakes, such as accidentally writing the emperor's name, etc., so they will still be discarded.
However, this possibility is still too small for scholars who have passed the Jiejiaixi and Provincial Examinations.
Therefore, many candidates feel that they have already won the title of Jinshi. They have been out all night playing in the past few days, going in and out of brothels.
The last ten years have been depressing, and now it’s only human nature to relax.
Zhang Yue and Huang Lu stayed behind closed doors, studying here.
You can do anything for fun. Now there are only more than twenty days before the imperial examination. After ten years of hard work, do you still care about these days? If you work harder this time, it can be regarded as a perfect end to your study career.
As for becoming an official, Zhang Yue thought he could let himself go if he was not so ambitious.
With the high salary of an official in the Song Dynasty, Zhang Yue can fully experience what freedom of wealth is. For a commoner who works all day after graduation, is it a dream to talk about feelings and ideals?
It’s a pity that Zhang Yue is a time traveler. The pain of being a time traveler is that you will know what this nation will encounter in a few decades. In what year AD did Jingkang come?
Although Zhang Yue was studying in hiding, he did not lack any etiquette. He asked Tang Jiu to bring letters to Zhang Heng, Chen Xiang, Ouyang Xiu and others, saying that he was preparing for the palace examination and would visit him after the palace examination to express his gratitude for so many years of cultivation.
Grace.
There were also letters from Wang An, Wang Anli, brothers, Lu Zhijiao, Zeng Gong, Su Xun, Han Zhongyan, Wen Jifu and so on.
With so many people wanting to meet Zhang Yue one by one, it was hard to do anything, so he had no choice but to send a group text message.
Chen Xiang, Ouyang Xiu, and Zhang Heng all responded to the letter generously and shared their experiences in the imperial examination.
During this period, Zhang Yue from the Nine Dynasties of the Tang Dynasty went home. Zhang Yue learned that since that day when he was ordered to capture his son-in-law, the matchmaker from Bianjing had almost broken the threshold of his family.
Zhang Yue was also filled with emotion when he heard the news. His mood at this moment can be summed up in two lines of poetry.
It’s easy to understand the saying that after ten years of being cold and no one asked, once you become famous, the world will know you.
Another saying is: As the flowers gradually become more charming, Asakusa has no horse hooves.
Among thousands of flowers, I only picked one peony. As for the other flowers, why bother lingering over and over again if I didn’t pick them?
People are often wary of big things and never make mistakes, but they often stumble on small things.
In the past, the Wu family treated Zhang Yue with great respect, but now that he has gained the upper hand, even if he has no intention of regretting the marriage, if he is complacent because many dignitaries come to propose marriage, he may not be able to understand his own weight for a while, and at this moment hesitates a little, showing that he is waiting for the marriage.
The mentality of selling at a price or using it to suppress the wife's family is disrespectful to people. The Wu family has underestimated themselves from now on. Not only has it failed Wu Chong to appreciate him, but he has also failed to live up to the seventeenth mother's treatment of him.
Admiration.
Zhang Yue had already made up his mind to do this. At this time, he wanted to reassure the Wu family and avoid worries, so that he could go all out to prepare for the imperial examination.
Zhang Yue and Huang Lu came to live here to give an explanation to the Wu family in advance so that they could feel at ease. Now they have entrusted it to their brother and second aunt to discuss the matter of coming to propose marriage.
Zhang Yue made up his mind to come to propose marriage, and he became the hands-off shopkeeper.
