Chapter 174 Surprised Wang Wei
Hu Ye took a shower and didn't know how long it took to take a shower. Anyway, when he went out to eat, the hands of the two girls were sour and sweet, and he muttered that Hu Ye and these geniuses had become smelly in the tribute court.
Just kidding, it’s so hot that you stay in there and don’t sweat a little, wouldn’t you be called a human? Besides, weren’t you two little girls who took the initiative to take a bath for me? Now I think this and that.
After the girl muttered, she wiped Hu Ye with a towel and then served him to dress.
Hu Ye finally knew why there was a maid in ancient times. He enjoyed it so much, and his concentration was a little less. He probably got involved with a maid at the age of thirteen or fourteen. When he was adolescence, he could still remain indifferent to such treatment. Of course, it would be a different matter to be a gentleman like himself.
After changing into a new piece of clothing, he came to the lobby with two girls. Lao Qian had already prepared the banquet.
Fortunately, it was summer, otherwise the food would be cold. If Hu Ye didn't come out again, Lao Qian would have to start it first.
Yin Changlong was very rude. These days, he had already become very familiar with Hu Ye and sat on the chair very consciously. Seeing Hu Ye coming out with two girls, he smiled and said, "Brother Hu is such a blessing."
Qingyi and Sa Ren can be unscrupulous in front of Hu Ye, and they are inevitably a little embarrassed in front of outsiders, so when Yin Changlong said that, their faces turned red.
Hu Ye stared at Yin Changlong viciously. This guy also changed. After the exam, he became another person. His analysis of the court was incisive and he spoke loudly. Hu Ye was curious. Could it be that the imperial examination was so magical that Yin Changlong changed and his maid changed.
Of course, it is not just Hu Ye’s table to celebrate. The entire inn was full at noon today, and all the scholars chose to celebrate. Although the list has not yet been released, it cannot stop them from indulging. Some people even said that they must go to the Qinhuai River outside the city tonight, and it is not in vain to come to Nanjing.
Walking around the Qinhuai River is a saying that is well-known in Nanjing. To put it bluntly, it is to go shopping in brothels.
Hu Ye was a little moved when he heard this. A few days ago, he dreamed that he met the girl Yan on the Yanlai Tower by the Qinhuai River. He just didn't know if there was such a Yanlai Tower on the Qinhuai River.
Sa Ren keenly captured Hu Ye's abnormal movement, so he stepped on Hu Ye's feet and said with great sincerity. "Young Master, it's better to go less fireworks, otherwise we won't explain to Aunt Lan."
Hu Ye shook the gray on his feet and muttered in his heart, "Aunt Lan on the left and Aunt Lan on the right." If this young master really wants to go shopping in the brothel, what if Lan Tingyue comes in person? Others Zhang Fu goes shopping in the brothel, even his wife supports it. Lan Tingyue is a housekeeper. How dare he stop this young master?
However, Hu Ye was too lazy to argue with these two girls, so he sat down casually and hugged Xiaoqiang. Xiaoqiang was his good brother and would go to the brothel next time. He would definitely bring it with him.
When everyone is here, they naturally have to use their chopsticks. It seems that the boss knows that everyone is very happy today and the amount of dishes given is also sufficient. So when Hu Ye is full, he is not halfway through.
"Young Master eats more, but you will become a juren in the future. It won't work if your body is weak." Saren added a slice of pork leg meat to Hu Ye's bowl and said with great sincerity.
Hu Ye touched his stomach. It seemed that Sa Ren had grown up. He used to say these words to her, but he didn't expect that she would say these words to her today.
After barely eating this piece of pork leg meat, Hu Ye was completely overwhelmed and could only watch Lao Qian eat it in big mouthfuls.
"Two young men, seeing you celebrate like this, I guess I will definitely pass the provincial examination." At this moment, the inn owner came over, brought Hu Ye a cup of tea, and said with a smile.
"Haha, it's easy to say." Hu Ye also smiled and took the teapot.
How could he not know what the boss is planning? He just wanted to get some information. If Yin Changlong couldn't even pass the provincial examination, wouldn't he have got the 100 taels of silver?
"Since the young master is so confident, I can only congratulate you." The boss smiled awkwardly. It seemed that it was difficult to get from Hu Ye to speak, so he stepped back and greeted other scholars.
Yin Changlong was eating vegetables while looking at the boss's back, with obvious contempt in his eyes.
"Brother Yin doesn't have to worry about it. Isn't businessmen all like this? By the day when Brother Yin is in high school, this boss will surprise you even more." Hu Ye said to Yin Changlong with a smile.
"There is no businessman, this is right." Yin Changlong suddenly stuffed a chicken leg into it and said while chewing it.
"Brother Yin, I see that your knowledge is not like the children of a poor family. Could it be that something happened to the family?" Hu Ye didn't pay attention a few days ago. Until today's words on the carriage after the exam gave Hu Ye a new understanding of Yin Changlong.
After savoring the time he spent these days, Yin Changlong was a little embarrassed on the first day, Yin Changlong acted more like a young man. So Hu Ye was very curious about how a child from a poor family could be so arrogant and had such a thorough understanding of the court.
"Brother Hu, everyone has a little secret. I guess Brother Hu hasn't told me the truth." Yin Changlong smiled mysteriously.
Hu Ye rolled his eyes and, with his own eyesight, he completely misled Yin Changlong. However, since Yin Changlong didn't want to say it, Hu Ye stopped asking.
...
Compared to the relaxation of the candidates, the examiners are much more busy because they have nearly 10,000 test papers to read.
Censoring papers is a big project. All the scholars from the school are working together and people sent by the cabinet to help. They must read the test papers before the end of the month, otherwise it will affect the release date and will be a big taboo.
Wang Wei cannot be idle either. As the chief examiner of the provincial examination, he has the heaviest task, and it is his right to select candidates who can pass the exam, so he dare not relax at all.
Wang Wei was marking the papers this day, and the same articles these days have caused him to feel aesthetic fatigue. Especially for the policy discussion, the candidates are basically offering suggestions on how to solve this year's drought. Although it seems very insightful, they are basically copying it.
Wang Wei rubbed his eyes with some fatigue. It was indeed not a good job to mark the papers.
After a little rest, Wang Wei picked up another test paper, hoping that it would not be as boring as those test papers just now.
At the beginning, Wang Wei looked the same as others.
But as he looked, he became energetic because the paper was written so well with his taste.
But looking back, his face changed, his previous joy was gone, and more worried.
The surrounding paper marking officers looked at Wang Wei curiously. They had never seen Wang Wei have so many expressions about a paper. Just as he was about to ask questions, Wang Wei did stand up suddenly.
"Prepare a sedan chair, I want to go to the palace." Wang Wei said loudly. (To be continued, please search for Piaotianwen. The novel is better, updated and faster!
