Chapter 422: It seems to have caused trouble (please vote for me)
The most important task of selecting the first place candidate has been completed, so the examiner's sudden coma did not affect the release of the examination list.

After all, no one cares about the following rankings. There is no difference between the second place and the 100th or 200th place.

In the early morning of February 28, the examination list was announced, with a total of 348 names on the list.

Strictly speaking, these people who are on the examination list cannot be called Jinshi. The official statement is that they can only be called Chinese examination candidates.

Only those who have passed the palace examination process in March can be considered a disciple of the emperor and be called a Jinshi.

However, no one will be eliminated in the subsequent palace examination, so these 348 people on the list can start the party now.

When everyone who was crowded at the bottom of the list saw the name of Huiyuan, who came first in the Yichou Examination in the 17th year of Wanli, they were all at a loss for words and couldn't find words to express their extremely complicated feelings.

This Huiyuan feels a bit explosive, which is quite unexpected anyway.

A martial arts champion crosses over to take the liberal arts exam, and actually takes first place in the country's highest-level eight-part essay exam. It's too magical.

Because Lin Daguanren spent a lot of money on publicity, everyone knew that although Lin Daguanren was superb in martial arts, he was also a man with some literary talent and knowledge.

Since the beginning of the exam, Lin Tailai's delusions of persecution have become more and more serious. He has even released the results and is still wondering if someone is trying to harm him.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Wen replied: "Probably not, at least not on a large scale."

Official Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. I'm afraid that a large number of failed candidates will join forces to cause trouble."

For example, Wen Zhengming and Gui Youguang, the two masters of imperial examinations in the Ming Dynasty, were both master-level figures in the literary world, but one failed the provincial examination nine times and the other failed the national examination eight times.

Lin Tailai was not as arrogant as usual, but scolded Zhang Wen: "Don't fart with your mouth full!

"Eight yuan! Eight yuan!" Zhang Wen, the Zuo protector who was watching the rankings, rushed in and shouted excitedly to Lin Daguan, "The first place is the seat! I will come back first to announce the good news!"

In this early morning, Lin Daguan and his friends were all at his residence in Dongcheng, waiting for the release of the results.

This is a stereotype that is deeply rooted in people's hearts and cannot be easily reversed.

That is to say, I have a lot of money. In the past two and three months, I have spent all my money to promote my talent and spent all my money on hospitality to build my reputation.

Damn it! Even Lin Tailai's friends were shocked! This time Lin Tailai played a little too big!
Wu Yuan is three yuan, Wen Yuan is five yuan, and we are only the last number one scholar away from the highest. Is this what people can achieve?
But after the shock was over, I felt that it was not surprising that Lin Tailai did anything strange. He was born with a trouble-making temperament.

Compared to the shock of others, Lin Daguanren himself was calm and indifferent, as if he had just completed a basic operation.

But everyone did not understand that Lin Daguan was standing in a dimension five hundred years in the future and had learned a lot of experience and lessons.

Zhang Wen was obviously very excited and shouted: "Zi Guan has won the Huiyuan in an upright and dignified manner. Who without a long-sighted mind would dare to question Zui Guan?"

Eight-part essay is not so much a literary talent as a craftsmanship. What is required is not wantonness but precise control and engraving.

Everyone: "."

He only asked Zhang Wen: "Has anyone ever made noise and made trouble below the list? Has anyone spoken dirty words to me?"

Therefore, in the general intuitive impression of the public, Lin Daguan's talents are those of a mountain man and a wild scholar.

Although you can punch the retro style and kick Gu Daru, writing eight-part essays is another skill, and you don't have to be talented to do it.

Anyway, everyone subconsciously felt that Lin Daguan might be really talented, but he did not have the temperament of a craftsman in eight-legged prose.

But Lin Tailai has never shown his proficiency in writing eight-legged essays in front of everyone, and everyone agrees that this is "hidden clumsiness."

Otherwise, I am afraid that someone will yell at the candidates on the spot, and then the failed candidates will be organized to make troubles in the capital, although there is a high probability that there will be no results. "

For example, in the original historical time and space, a major event occurred in the forty-fourth year of Wanli's trial.

After the examination results were released, Hui Yuan was called Shen Tonghe, but immediately some fellow villagers accused Shen Tonghe of being semi-literate.

As a result, the public was in an uproar, causing a huge commotion. The failed candidates made trouble together, and finally alerted Emperor Wanli, who had been lying dormant in the palace for more than 20 years.

Immediately, Emperor Wanli ordered the Ministry of Rites to conduct a re-examination for Shen Tonghe. In the end, Shen Tonghe was expelled and dismissed, resulting in no Hui Yuan for the examination.

Lin Daguanren prepared for the exam by comparing himself to Shen Tonghe in history.

After spending a lot of money to gain reputation before the exam, now everyone should just murmur, and there will no longer be a common trend of thought like "illiterates can get first place in the exam".

Therefore, the huge sum of nearly two thousand taels was not wasted.

Suddenly, Official Lin stood up and said to everyone: "You continue to wait for the results. I will visit my old benefactor first!"

Everyone looked at the sky in surprise, and Dong Qichang asked: "Isn't it a bit early to go now? Besides, even if you want to pay a visit to the master, as usual, it will start tomorrow."

Lin Daguan replied as he walked: "Who said I was going to pay homage to the master? I'm going to pay homage to the chief minister! It doesn't matter if I go early, this is the effect I want!"

So Lin Tailai took about twenty servants, holding lanterns, and returned to Xicheng in the early morning.

"Bang bang bang!" Lin Daguan slapped the door of Shen Mansion hard. The doorman on night duty was sleepy. He opened the small door and took a look. When he saw it was an old acquaintance, he yelled: "Are you sick? You came to knock on the door before dawn!"

Lin Tailai responded: "I'm here to thank Prime Minister Shin!"

The doorman said angrily: "You don't even look at the time! My master is still asleep. If there is nothing urgent, wait until he wakes up before sending the message!"

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter! I'll wait outside the gate first! I'll wait until Prime Minister Shen has finished his breakfast before sending the message." Lin Tailai said.

About twenty big men stood outside the gate of Shen Mansion, quite eye-catching.

So as the sky gradually became brighter, passers-by saw that Lin Tailai, who was said to be the first member of the Xinke Association, stood respectfully outside the door of Shen Mansion as soon as the results were announced, even more active than the visiting teacher!
Shen Shoufu didn't wait to take the exam last night. To him, it was a trivial matter and it wasn't his son's grade. There was really no need to waste sleep over it.

After getting up today, Shen Shoufu heard from the door that Lin Tailai had been waiting outside the door, saying he was here to thank him.

"Let him come in." The attentive Shen Shoufu was still a little surprised. When did Lin Jinbu pay so much attention to gratitude?
Originally, Shen Shoufu was also about to leave for work, so he met him in the front hall.

Lin Tailai climbed up the steps and said loudly: "Thank you, my old benefactor, for helping me win the honorary title!"

Shen Shoufu: "???"

Isn’t it just Paulin Tailai who is on the list? What the hell is Huiyuan?

What on earth is Xu Guo, a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, thinking? What does he want to do?

Although Shen Shoufu still didn't understand what happened, his subconscious and natural reaction was top-notch, and he immediately responded:
"You have nothing to do with me now, so you don't need to thank me. Your teacher is your benefactor."

Official Lin shouted emotionally: "No! My old benefactor must have helped me! Otherwise, I have no relationship with the examiner, how could I be chosen first among thousands of people?"

Shen Shoufu also wanted to know what the reason was for Xu Guo, so he appointed Lin Tailai as the guild member.

However, he was vaguely aware that Lin Tailai didn't know what tricks he had played, but now he was afraid again and wanted to pull him to bear the pressure together.

Thinking of this, Shen Shixing asked directly: "First tell the truth, how did you get this Huiyuan?"

Official Lin said blankly: "I don't know why, but the examiner chose me to be the first."

Shen Shixing asked again: "You said you would do your best before, but how did you do your best?"

Lin Daguan replied with great energy: "What I mean here is that you should try your best to answer the questions and write the best article. As long as you work hard, you will not regret it."

Shen Shixing was very dissatisfied and shouted subconsciously: "You have caused trouble and you still don't tell the truth. How can I deal with the aftermath for you?"

Lin Tailai called out to Qu, "What are you talking about, Mr. Ge? How can I get into trouble if I take the Huiyuan exam?"

Shen Shi line "."

Others feel proud when they pass the Huiyuan exam, but you, Lin Tailai, acted like you were in trouble after winning the Huiyuan exam!
Lin Tailai explained: "It's not me who caused the trouble, but someone who will be so angry that they will become angry. Qingliu and the others will definitely not let it go."

In the Gongyuan Examination Hall in Beijing, although the examination has ended and the examiners have withdrawn, there is still a lot of finishing work.

Therefore, Shen Li, the chief promotion officer in charge of the examination and the Minister of Rites, could not leave yet and remained in the Deacon Hall of Gongyuan.

Several party members who participated in the examination stood in front of Shen Shangshu, including officials from the Ministry of Rites in charge of various aspects and censors in charge of patrols. At this time, they were all filled with indignation and venting their emotions in all directions.

"Xu Guo has completely surrendered and is colluding with Shen and Lin! We can't let Xu Guo go in the future!"

"Everyone knows that we wanted to ban Lin Tailai! However, we let Lin Tailai win the Huiyuan. Our reputation will be severely damaged. This is our shame!"

"Lin Tailai has been shouting that the Ministry of Rites wants to harm him from the very beginning, but now he has passed the exam to get the first place in Huiyuan. Doesn't our Ministry of Rites become a laughing stock?"

"Comrades should be mobilized to petition the imperial court for a reexamination of Lin Tailai!"

In the eyes of those in the Qingliu forces, Lin Tailai's performance was simply a front-loading output.

After several twists and turns, Shen Shangshu also felt a little exhausted. At this time, listening to a group of people arguing loudly, he felt that his brain was going to explode.

He waved his hand feebly to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said:

"For the sake of Zhao Xuansi, I promised Lin Tailai not to raise any objections to the results of the examination or pursue any investigation.

Besides, Jinke also has more than ten colleagues on the list. If he and Lin Tailai are entangled, both sides may lose. "

One of the censors was very disappointed and said: "Then we are watching the Lin thief become arrogant. Is there nothing we can do but sit idly by and ignore him?"

Yu Kong Jian, the doctor of the Ceremony Department of the Ministry of Etiquette, suddenly said: "It may not be impossible. Isn't there still a palace examination in the future?

Da Zongbo had promised not to raise any objection to the results of the general examination, but the palace examination was another examination.

Wouldn't it be enough to arrange the palace examination as a re-examination for Lin Tailai, make up temporary questions, and make him write eight-part essays in public during the palace examination? "
