The county examination is just the first stop of the imperial examination. Even if you pass the test, you will not have any fame or reputation, and you will not even have the title of a child. Therefore, yamen at all levels, including gentry from all over the country, do not value the candidates who pass the test in the county.

So what if you pass the county test? Even if you pass the test, you will still be a white diary. You used to be a white diary, but now you are still a white diary. Except for being qualified to participate in the palace test, there is no other meaning.

Not many people will feel at ease to take this kind of small exam. Scholars who cannot pass the county exam are not qualified to be attracted to everyone's eyes. Even if they pass it, they are the same, and they still do not have the qualifications to be valued.

However, a small number of people pay special attention to the county examination. Most of these are candidates themselves or their relatives and friends, and some are idle people who are born to join in the fun.

According to the rules of the imperial examination, the results are generally announced on the third day after the examination, that is, the results are announced.

Early that morning, before the hour of Mao came, the outside of the county government was filled with people.

Of course, these people did not come to take the county exam. They passed the county exam and would not retake the exam without special reasons. They looked at the list, that is, the results.

By the way, this is not an exam. Will the examiner announce the list so early in the morning?

This is not necessarily true. Some people are more dull in their work. It is possible that the list will be published at the hour of Mao. Generally, it is after the hour of Mao, but it is generally not delayed until the hour of Chen, because the county government also clicks on Mao at the hour of Mao and then starts working. The release of the list will naturally not delay for one or two hours.

Sure enough, just after a while, the county government gate opened, and several yamen runners carried paste buckets and rushed out quickly with a large paper tube.

They didn't say anything, they just grabbed the bulletin board of the county government fence and brushed it. After brushing it, they worked together to unfold the paper tube about two feet, flattened it and pressed it on the wall, then slapped it a few times on all sides, and then left.

This is the list of county examinations, but there are not many words on it, because there are only more than 30 people participating in the county examination. At a ratio of about five to one, you can pick out ten passes.

As soon as the yamen runners left, the crowd who were looking at the list suddenly surrounded him. Some enthusiasts even read loudly in order to show their knowledge of words.

The 11th year of Jiajing Hui'an Renchen County Examination

List

First place, Yang Cong!

"Wow", as soon as he read this, countless discussions sounded in the crowd.

"Yang Cong? Couldn't he be the prodigal ancestor of the Yang family? Did he also participate in the county examination?"

"I took it. I also came to see the county exam on the day of the county exam. He was the first to enter the examination room."

"Why is this spendthrift thing participating in the county trial? Is it so painful to be idle?"

"Shh, be careful, if that guy hears it, you must beat you up."

"What are you afraid of? He is not here. The Yang Mansion is also in Dianmao now. No one will run out so early."

Most of these people are watching the fun. They are watching Yang Cong’s absence and not wearing the clothes of Yang’s family guards in the hospital. They dare to “spokenly” so much when reading the list.

Some people are different.

In the crowd, a sour voice said: "Oh, it's good to have money these days. A ignorant spendthrift can top the list. But we students who have studied hard for more than ten years can't even get to the list."

Obviously, this is a candidate who failed the county examination.

The list was not long. There were only eight people admitted in this county examination. Adding to the ranking, there were only less than fifty characters as big as a palm. I could see it at a glance. If I won or not, I would naturally be able to see the results immediately.

As soon as the man finished speaking, someone immediately responded: "Yes, there must be a ghost in the prodigal thing Yang Cong must have. I sat opposite him at that time. He seemed to know the questions in advance. He finished the test paper after a few strokes. He sat there and fanned the cool air."

This must be another candidate who has not passed the exam. It is a bit exaggerating. However, it is basically true. Although Yang Cong had finished the exam paper after a few strokes, Yang Cong did sit there and fan the cool air.

At this time, someone answered, "Really, is this Yang Cong really fanning the exam room?"

Obviously, this is a big deal to watch the fun.

At this time, another sour voice said, "That's still fake. Everyone was sweating profusely, thinking hard, and trying hard to do the questions. He was alone, slapping the wind leisurely, and not even a trace of sweat on his forehead."

Wow, this gossip is so exciting!

The richest young master of the Yang family in Hui'an participated in the county examination, sat there for a while and then won the first place.

This topic can attract a large number of people if you talk about it.

Someone who is accused of having sex couldn't help asking, "Really, is it true, have you seen it? What else did he do besides taking a cool off?"

Obviously, I want to dig out further news for this good thing so that I can take it back and show it everywhere.

At this time, another sour voice said: "Of course it's true. Will we lie? He is still eating there. Such a fool, the exam room was as smelly as a pit at that time, and he could still eat."

Immediately afterwards, a sour and tooth-inverted voice followed: "Yes, this fool can't tell the difference between fragrance and smell. He was still giggling in such a smelly place to eat. If this fool can do something, I will eat the half bucket of golden juice that I pulled out!"

Damn, this guy is so disgusting. Most of us didn’t have breakfast. He actually talked about such disgusting things as drinking gold juice.

Several people obviously frowned, then shook their heads, sighed for a while, then slowly separated the crowd and left.

These should be the candidates who passed the county test and ranked on the list of the articles.

The first place in this county is not the first place in the provincial examination or the first place in the palace examination. The first place in the provincial examination has a reputation as Jie Yuan, and can be famous. The first place in the palace examination can even win the title of top scholar. It is a big deal. This is the first place in this county examination, what's the point of fighting for?

Therefore, the relatives and friends of the candidates on the list all left silently. After all, the Yang family is a well-known rich family in Hui'an, and ordinary people cannot afford to offend them. Even scholars, if they do not have fame and fortune, they will provoke others, and all the gold juice that they can abuse is sprayed out.

Those who failed the exam left for a while and knew that the Yang family was in great power and could not afford to provoke them. Moreover, this was the front of the county government, so it would be a few words of sorrow. If you dare to make trouble, you must be caught by the county magistrate and beat the board.

However, they won't just let it go.

After ten years of hard study, I can’t beat the stinky things of others. Is it really amazing to have money?

On the surface, they dared not to oppose the Yang family, and they spread rumors in secret, and they still dared to spit out sour water.

So, rumors began to fly everywhere in Hui'an County.

What "Yang Cong cheated, the first in the county exam."

What "A man surnamed Yang bought the county test questions in advance, and then he won the championship after entering the examination room after passing the formalities."

What "The Yang family's spendthrift thing asked someone to write a beautiful article, and used despicable means to win the first place in the county examination."

Wait, wait, there are many things.
