Chapter 29
Hangzhou City Governing Mansion.
Chu Banshan was listening to his subordinates report about Xu Xian.
The redness on his face had dissipated, but his expression was still sinister, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in his mouth: "A person from Qiantang County, he just took the imperial examination this year and took the exam for the children. Recently, he was famous for writing a poem about West Lake. He only had one sister at home, and his biggest backer was the headmaster of Qiantang County! Haha, hehe..."
As Chu Banshan said, he suddenly laughed, smiling a little evilly, grinning and showing his teeth, saying, "With this kind of background, I dare to go against me! OK, very good!"
His father Chu Yintai was the garrison of Hangzhou Prefecture, and the Dali Dynasty was also a fifth-rank official. Although he was lower than the fourth-rank prefect, his family had been divided since ancient times. Chu Yintai was a military officer and did not obey the prefect.
So in the entire Hangzhou Prefecture, there are almost no one who can defeat Chu Banshan.
Xu Xian humiliated him in public and did not avenge this revenge, Chu Banshan's heart was really uneasy.
Especially now that he learned that Xu Xian did not have a background that could not be provoked and was an ant that he usually was too lazy to treat him directly, he was even more unwilling to swallow his anger.
Only he recruited two Taoist priests under Dao's command, and said in a deep voice: "Young Master, I think it's better not to act rashly in this matter. It's not too late to make a decision after the master arrives."
Another Taoist priest also persuaded and analyzed: "This Xu Xian is definitely not as simple as it seems! You have also seen his methods that day. He is not an ordinary person and he definitely has great secrets. For example, when he practices Taoism, we don't even know which sect he learns from..."
Not only did Chu Banshan not listen to the persuasion, he also sarcastically said, "What's wrong with practicing the Taoist Dharma? You two also practice the Taoist Dharma, and there is also a world-renowned master who is a master. Isn't it useless?"
After saying that, he paused for a while before continuing to say coldly: "What's wrong with knowing Taoist magic? As long as it doesn't matter in the court, no matter how powerful his magic is, I will make him regret it!"
In the Dali Dynasty, even when facing talented people and strangers, the imperial officials also had a good deterrent power.
"Isn't his boss-in-law recently in Hangzhou City. He wants to find a relationship and implement the official rank but can't find a way? I'll do something good and give him a way!"
Chu Banshan's face was vicious, and he stood up and said, "Let's go with me to the government office and meet Zhu Ye Dianli!"
The prefect's yamen is called the government office, which includes departments such as the government office, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Education, and the Ministry of Education. Among them, the government office is a comprehensive department with several official officials.
Xu Xian’s brother-in-law Li Gongfu wants to implement the official rank. As long as someone among these officials is willing to help, the matter will be very simple...
Seeing this, the two Taoist priests looked at each other, and their faces were filled with bitter smiles.
They have been following Chu Banshan for quite some time. Chu Banshan has known that he has made up his mind and it is useless to persuade anyone.
However, they were always worried. How could a scholar who practiced the Taoist Dharma and had a righteous spirit be so simple and ordinary?
If you are not careful, this garrison young master may not be able to take advantage of it!
...
...
The rising sun was rising, He Liang and Li Gongfu got up early, and both were in a particularly happy mood.
Today is the day when the results of the mansion examination were released. He Liang performed extremely well in this time. He was very sure of being admitted to the student of the Tongsheng. In the past few days, he has not mentioned this matter in order to take care of Xu Xian's mood. Today, the results were released, and he could not control his excitement.
Li Gongfu, since returning to the inn last night, also swept away his decadence and felt much more relaxed.
He wanted to implement the official rank in recent days but could not find a way. The "asking price" of the government officials was ridiculously high, and he could not afford so much money. But for some reason, yesterday, a government official named Zhu Ye took the initiative to find him and promised to help him with this matter. The asking price was not high, and it was within the range that Li Gongfu could bear.
Li Gongfu had already paid the money yesterday. The Dian Li said that someone would send him documents today. When he returned to Qiantang County, he would be a formal ninth-rank official!
"Chinese, the results are about to be released. Do you want to read the rankings? I can help you read..." He Liang said seriously.
He thought that Xu Xian must have been on the list this time. The results of going to see the list or not are the same, and he definitely has no hope. He will be sad and disappointed when going to see it. He may even encounter Li Chong and Qin Ming and other villains, so he will be humiliated.
So in his opinion, Xu Xian would rather not go.
"Let's go there." Xu Xian said with a smile.
He knew He Liang had good intentions, but he still had to confirm the results after the results were released, and at least he had to see if he was the leader of the case.
If this is a provincial examination, Xu Xian doesn't have to rush to see the list in person.
After the provincial examination, the yamen will take the initiative to send someone to report the good news.
If you are below the provincial examination, even if you pass the college entrance examination, you have to go check your grades in person.
"It's good to go there, go and go early. If it was early, maybe we could go back to Qiantang today." Li Gongfu said while packing his things.
His mind was over. When he got the document today, Xu Xian and He Liang saw the results of the mansion examination and they could return.
"Okay, let's go together!" He Liang nodded.
...
...
The rising sun was rising, and the rising sun in early summer had just risen, and the Gongyuan was already crowded.
In addition to the hundreds of candidates who participated in the government examination this time, the families of the candidates and those who joined in the fun surrounded the places outside the Gongyuan, and they all looked forward to the results of the government examination.
As soon as the Si hour arrived, a road was automatically separated from the outside of the crowd.
"The results are released! The results are released!"
Many people shouted excitedly.
Soon, several yamen runners put a huge thick piece of rice paper on the wall and stepped back. The separated crowds surrounded them like a tide.
"Give it, let it go!"
He Liang's obese body, which usually takes two steps to breathe, became particularly strong at this moment, like a bulldozer, and separated the way among the crowd, leading Xu Xian to the front.
When people look at the list, they will look from the front to the back, but He Liang is very self-aware and he looks from the back to the front.
Because he knew that even if he performed well, he was very good at the questions in this mansion examination, but his level was there, and he could pass the mansion examination and become one of the thirty new boys, even if he had a great fortune.
If you want to be at the top, it is almost the same if someone misses the question for him and helps him write the answer in advance!
"Thirty, Shanyin County, Wang Hao."
"Twenty-ninth place, Wucheng County, Cui Daxing."
"Twenty-eighth place, Qiantang County, He Liang!"
He Liang looked excited and stared at him, his eyes slowly moved from behind to forward. Without looking at a name, he had to swallow his saliva and his heart beat violently.
When he saw his name, he jumped three feet high. Then he hugged Xu Xian with both hands and shouted excitedly: "I'm beaten! I'm beaten!"
Xu Xian smiled and said, "Yeah, you've won, you've won."
He Liang looked from behind, but Xu Xian looked from behind.
When He Liang saw the third name, he was himself.
The first name Xu Xian saw was him.
First place, Qiantang County, Xu Xian!
