Yang Cong didn't know that he was almost defeated by Yan Song, but he expected that he might have trouble, and it was hard to say whether he could pass the imperial examination.

So, on the day the results were announced, he came to the tribute court early with Yu Dayou and others to see what the result was.

This guy came early, and there were still people coming earlier than them. There were so many people outside the Gongyuan that were hard to move forward.

Fortunately, with experts like Yu Dayou and Tang Kekuan, these scholars with no power could not squeeze them at all. Not long after, they squeezed below the list. This list is different from the list of the provincial examination or the college examination. There are five or six hundred names on it, densely packed, and it makes people feel numb.

Yang Cong looked up and glanced for a while before finding the starting position of the list. The starting position was still a little far from him. He narrowed his eyes before seeing the words on it clearly.

The first place is Jie Yuan, not him.

The second place is Yayuan, not him.

The third, fourth, and fifth scholars are not him.

Yang Cong glanced quickly and his heart suddenly became cold. He was used to being at the top of the list. Suddenly, his name could not be found in the top five. He was already so panicked.

Did he really get done by He Qian and Yan Song?

What if this is the case?

At this time, Li Du suddenly cheered excitedly: "I've won, I've won, I've won!"

This guy doesn't seem to have his name in the first few. Yang Cong subconsciously scanned the top five again. Not to mention the name Li Du, there is not even a person with the surname Li.

He was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that Li Du could be said to be the worst among them. He was not sure of winning the exam. This guy was probably looking forward from the last one.

Li Du did look forward from the last one. He knew how many pounds he had, Jie Yuan, Ya Yuan and so on. He never thought that as long as he could win the imperial examination, he would burn high incense, so he simply looked forward from the last one.

Unexpectedly, I really found my name. Although it was the fourth from the bottom, I was also a winner.

He passed the imperial examination!

From then on, he was no longer a sour scholar, but a juren.

From then on, he became a gentry, not an ordinary citizen.

These days, it is really not easy to get a juren. From county examinations, government examinations, college examinations to provincial examinations, the elimination rate is astonishingly high.

The admission ratios of county examinations and prefecture examinations are about one ten, which means that only one child can produce one hundred scholars.

The admission rate of the college entrance examination is even more surprisingly low. Only one scholar can be admitted among thirty child students, that is to say, only one scholar can be produced among thirty scholars.

The admission rate for the provincial examination is also quite low. Basically, only one Juren is selected from the twenty scholars. Moreover, because there are too many candidates in the Jiangnan Gong Academy of Yingtian Prefecture in Nanzhili, there are still quota restrictions. Basically, only 60 Juren will be admitted at most in one class. For example, this time, there are more than 12,000 candidates, which is actually overdue, and the admission rate is even lower than that of 20 to take one.

In this way, it takes about 60,000 scholars to be a Juren. Of course, many candidates have more than one college entrance examination or provincial examination. After the number of people who repeat the examination is removed, the probability of a Juren is about one in ten thousand to one in twenty thousand, which means that one Juren is at most one in ten thousand and twenty thousand scholars!

Under this terrifying admission rate, it is extremely difficult for scholars to obtain fame and fame for scholars, and it is even more difficult to get into the juren.

Of course, the benefits that follow after being admitted to Juren are also quite amazing. By obtaining Juren’s fame, you can not only obtain a tax exemption amount of 400 acres of land, but also obtain the qualification to select officials. In other words, with Juren’s fame, you are qualified to become an official.

This so-called official is not a miscellaneous official without rank, but a serious and rank-level official selected by the Ministry of Personnel. If you have a backstage or have a particularly strong ability, it is not impossible to be a county magistrate or even a prefect. For example, the famous Hai Rui in history is just a juren.

It can be said that passing the imperial examination is equivalent to changing from an ordinary person to a high-ranking ruling class in one fell swoop. His whole life has completely changed. This is a huge surprise for Li Du. Although he did not go crazy as happy as Fan Jin, he was so excited that he could not control himself.

He was so ecstatic that Xue Nantang cheered again: "I won, I won, I won too!"

Dizzy, Yang Cong looked forward following Li Du's name. Sure enough, Xue Nantang was just a few of them. These two guys were both hit, so he should have no problem. He was about to continue looking from the top of the list, but Yu Dayou suddenly laughed and said, "Haha, I've also hit it."

Upon hearing this, Yang Cong continued to search along Xue Nantang's name. Sure enough, he quickly found Yu Dayou's name.

This guy is amazing, both civil and military scholars can be said to be unprecedented.

Now, six people together, Li Du, Xue Nantang, and Yu Dayou, have all won the imperial examinations, and Wang Xuan and Hu Zongxian should have also won, because Wang Xuan and Hu Zongxian's level is obviously much higher than the three of them. All three guys have won, and it is unlikely that Wang Xuan and Hu Zongxian will miss it.

At this time, Yang Cong was so panicked that they all won. Why didn’t he win? His level was more than a little better than these three guys. In terms of writing speed, Wang Xuan and Hu Zongxian were much worse than him. If we count it this way, he should be among the top. Why is his name not among the top five?

If he was really ruined by He Qian, He Qian and Yan Song, the consequences would be unimaginable!

With a nervous mood, he raised his head anxiously and continued to look down from the top of the list.

Sixth place is Yakui and Yang Huicong.

Although this guy's surname is Yang, he also has the word "cong" in it, but there is the word "huo" in the middle. It's not right.

He subconsciously wanted to jump over, but then he was stunned again, because there seemed to be fine brackets on both sides of the word "无". He just looked too hastily and didn't notice it.

Yang (Hui) Cong, this should be himself. He knew that his "Cong" was homophones with the "Hui" of the current emperor Zhu Houcong, and it was not surprising that he added the word "Hui" in front of it.

However, this name is really fucked. Yang Hui, Damn, it looks so much like Yang Wei. Who is this? So fucked!

He was secretly complaining about it, and Hu Zongxian suddenly jumped up and laughed: "I've been beaten, I've been beaten, hahahaha."

Seeing this, Yang Cong hurriedly followed the top of the list and looked down. Sure enough, Hu Zongxian's name was among the more than 20. Now, the five young people began to celebrate each other excitedly, but Wang Xuan was still nervously searching for his name.

Finally, after more than 60 disappointments, he saw his name. At this time, he couldn't help but burst into tears and said, "I've also won, but I've actually won!"

In fact, he is not old. He is only in his forties now. In modern people's words, he is in his prime. However, the average age of ordinary people is not high at this time. In addition, his life is extremely difficult and he has already tortured him with white hair. It can be said that his mentality is already old.

However, after seeing himself passing the imperial examination, his eyes full of tears seemed to have a hint of ambition and ambition again.

At this time, he may still have great potential in his life!

In this provincial examination, the Nanzhili examination room admitted more than 600 juren, and all six of them were won. I have to say that this is a miracle

In fact, the result is not very strange. The reason is that Yang Cong is too rich. He bought the various selected articles of the provincial examination and the imperial examination when he saw it. He didn't know how many books he bought.

As the saying goes, "If you read 300 Tang poems well, you will be able to recite them even if you can't write poems." They read more than 300 high-quality test papers, and each one has comments from famous artists. Naturally, the articles they make will not be too bad, and it is normal to pass the exam.
