  Chapter 73 Dang Song

   "The results of this year's re-examination are out."

  Late at night, Chang'an Imperial City, Honglu Temple.

  The tall teacher held a thick stack of papers, walked into the hall quickly with a smile.

   "Are the results counted?"

  In the main hall, the instructors of the academy, who had been correcting the exam papers all afternoon, yawned and drank wine, suddenly became refreshed and got up one after another and asked, "How many people have passed?"

   "Seventeen hundred men."

  Professor Gao put the paper on which the candidates' grades were recorded on the table, and said casually, "There are another 800 people who have successfully destroyed the test papers to the extent we prescribed in advance."

  A professor clicked his tongue, "Eight hundred people? It's a little less than expected."

   "After all, it is paper made of fourth-class monster leather."

  The tall teacher waved his hand casually, and suddenly said to his colleagues with a mysterious face: "By the way, guess what is the highest score in this year's retest?"

   "Highest Score"

  A group of teachers murmured, "It can't be two hundred and eighty points?"

  The full score of the school re-examination paper is 300 points, and the scores of different questions are different.

  Scores such as famous sayings of philosophers are relatively low, while questions about laws and moral concepts have relatively high scores.

"No,"

  The tall teacher shook his head pretending to be mysterious, and waited until his colleagues cast contemptuous glances before he announced the answer with a smile, "Full marks."

   "Full score?"

  The other teachers were astonished and said, "Is one question correct?"

   "One question is correct."

  The tall teacher smacked his lips and said: "And that Yanzhou student named Li Ang handed in the test in advance."

"Li Ang. I have the impression that he was the second in the first exam, right? Dr. Chao Wenyuan almost praised him to the sky a while ago. If it wasn't for fear of bad influence, he would probably block his house now and accept him as a disciple in advance. .”

   "Haha, I also remember. When he was in the imperial examination for the first time, he was dragged by a horse to pass the finish line, and he even got the first class."

   "Speaking of which, the student who got the first place in the first exam is probably called He Fanshuang? Where does it feel like I've heard this name before?"

  The instructors chatted casually, waiting for the personnel from the Ministry of Rites to come over, and posted the list that had been counted all over Chang'an City.

"what's the topic?"

   Tap, tap, the sound of footsteps from far to near.

  Wearing a long robe, Xi Yangyu Shi Shiran walked into the main hall, surrounded by six three-tiered food boxes made of bamboo and exuding a strong aroma,

   "The dishes just made by the cook at home. The stewed beef head, the sheep in the hall, the cut fish, and the okra soup, everyone, eat them while they are hot."

  Xi Yangyu flicked his right hand, and the lid of the food box suspended in the air opened automatically, and it fell gently on the table.

  The dishes, dishes, chopsticks and spoons inside all flew out under the influence of thoughts, and the whole table was filled in the blink of an eye.

   "Thank you Xi Siye."

   All the teachers were hungry, so they picked up their bowls and chopsticks one after another.

  Xi Yangyu's house in Chang'an Shengyefang is magnificent, and the food and clothing are not as luxurious as a school teacher, and the cook at home is even hired from Suhang restaurant with a lot of money, and the annual salary is as high as a thousand.

  The other three directors of the Academy, and some respected doctors, sneered at this,

  However, among other doctors and professors, Xi Yangyu is quite popular—after all, he invites his colleagues to drink and eat every few days, and gives gifts on festivals.

   "By the way, when it comes to retesting"

  Xi Yangyu paused for a moment, picked up the paper with the grades registered with his right hand, and raised his eyebrows, "First place, Li Ang of Yizhou?"

   "Yes. That student is indeed very good. I heard that he came from a medical family."

   "Yuzhou?"

  Xi Yangyu muttered to himself, squeezed slightly with his right hand holding the paper, narrowed his eyes subconsciously, and a familiar and elegant man's face flashed in his mind.

  In his exaggeratedly long left sleeve, a breeze swelled inexplicably,

  By the candlelight in the hall, it seems that through the cuffs, something twisted and twisted inside can be seen.

   "Xi Siye?"

  The doubtful voice of his colleagues rang in his ears, Xi Yangyu came back to his senses, and the shadow under his left sleeve instantly died down.

   "It's a pity, it's a pity."

  Xi Yangyu shook his head and put down the paper, sighing softly.

  The tall Si Ye asked doubtfully, "What's the pity?"

   "Unfortunately, this student."

  Xi Yangyu sighed, took out two simple books from his arms and put them on the table, said lightly: "His hexagram is a sword in the skull"

  All the teachers looked at the books subconsciously, but they saw the titles of the covers, "Taixu Miaolin Jing" and "Lingbao Wisdom Contemplation of the Body Sutra".

  ——

   "Drunk and singing, how much life is!"

   "To be happy in life is to be happy, don't let the golden cup be empty to the moon!"

  In Yanshoufang Restaurant, students from several prefectures such as Weizhou, Xuanzhou, and Xiangzhou who are familiar with each other are sitting in the boxes on the top floor of the restaurant, drinking with glasses.

  Yang Yu chanted poems loudly, Zhai Yiming knocked on the table with his hands, and Ji Linglang knocked the bowl with chopsticks to accompany him. Song Shaoyuan leaned against the edge of the window with his eyes closed and his face flushed as if he was drunk.

  'There is a ktv inside flavor. '

  Li Ang shook his head helplessly, hid in the corner, and continued drinking juice with Chai Cuiqiao.

  It can only be said that no matter how the times change, the essence of the entertainment method remains the same.

  Actually, Li Ang can also understand the reason why other people are so unrestrained at this moment-the retest is 5,000 and 2,500 is taken, and the probability is still half.

  If you can pass, then you are only one step away from the academy.

  If you fail to pass a whole year of hard work, all in vain.

   Like some students whose age is close to the upper limit of admission to the academy, they have lost their chances in this life.

  The mental stress is not much better than the imperial examination candidates the night before the imperial examination results are released, or even worse-new Jinshi can only start from the secretary of the provincial school on the ninth grade.

  After graduating from the academy, if they want to become an official, they can choose their starting point from the three provinces and six departments at will.

  For example, Cheng Juxiu mentioned that elder brother before, who went directly to the Prince's East Palace to serve as Zuo Chunfang Zhongyun, the prince's assistant official under the fifth rank. The whole family can be under its shade.

  No matter from which angle you look at it, the nervousness, fear, anticipation, and uneasiness of the students here are all understandable.

   Dang Dang Dang Dang!

   Haotian bells ring,

  A fellow in the uniform of the Jinshi Group (a non-governmental business organization that provides services for newly promoted Jinshi) hurriedly knocked open the door of the box room, and shouted to Yang Yu: "Yang Qilang! The re-examination of the school has released the rankings!"

  The noise in the box stopped abruptly.

  Yang Yu put down his wine glass nervously, his lips turned pale,

  Zhai Yiming suddenly stood up from his seat, and Song Shaoyuan also opened his eyes suddenly.

   "Everyone, let's go."

  Yang Yu took a deep breath, smoothed his turned up collar silently, and walked out of the restaurant.

  A group of candidates followed and filed out. Almost at the same time, a large number of students from other squares also came out. Everyone looked at each other, silently, and gathered towards Suzakumen and other places.

   "Master."

"It's fine."

  Li Ang patted Chai Cuiqiao's subconsciously clenched palm lightly, and said lightly, "Xuegong, I've passed the exam."
