"Their grandfathers were frightened and fell from their jobs. They have to wait until the situation is stable before they can sign up." After Sheng Yuan explained the situation of Ouyang Ling and Xia Shuangjun, she took out an explanatory letter stamped with the seal of Jiujiang Academy and handed it over, "Here is the president of our academy. , certificate from the prison.”
Then she took out another document: "This is an explanation written by Qu Linsheng, who is our bailiff, with his personal seal on it."
"Yes." After hearing this, the clerk found the seal of Jiujiang Academy and Qu Linsheng's personal seal from the case. They paired them carefully and saw that they matched. Then he briefly looked at the college's letter of explanation and Qu Linsheng's paperwork.
"Since it is Qu Linsheng's guarantee, you can take the test card here! When you enter the venue, remember to stand according to the test card. There will be a clerk to check with Qu Linsheng."
Sheng Yuan and the other three took the test card, carefully put it into a small bag, and then handed it over to express their thanks.
"No need to be polite, just pay the fee later!"
Sheng Yuan knew that he was talking about the test paper fee, so he didn't say much and hurriedly continued walking towards the back.
"Bring your own or buy the papers?" The fee-paying clerk looked at them while shaking his abacus.
"Buy a coupon." Sheng Yuan had already taken out his small purse.
"The price of the roll is one hundred cents, Chenghui!"
Sheng Yuan took out a bunch of money that he had prepared a long time ago and neatly put it on the table.
The clerk put his hand on the money string and stroked it quickly, his thumb and index finger leaving an afterimage in the process. Before Sheng Yuan and the others could see clearly, he nodded and said, "It's done!"
After saying that, he made a stroke on the account book, picked up the seal and stamped a seal on Shengyuan's documents.
Sheng Yuan took a quick look and saw three words clearly printed on the document - "Full payment has been made".
Once the payment is completed, the registration is over.
Sheng Yuan and the other three walked out according to the instructions of the guidance document. They went out to the side door of the ceremony room, and from there they went to the street.
It was also at this time that the three Sheng Yuan were in the mood to look at the candidates coming in and out.
"Look, that white-haired boy! He's shaky when he walks, and he still has to take the exam?!" An Yu held Sheng Yuan in one hand and stretched out Lu Sheng in the other, reminding them to look forward.
"Although the path to the imperial examination has left many people confused, but this..."
Anyu felt it was a bit exaggerated: "I have been taking the county examination for decades, why is it necessary to continue?"
This is too difficult for my own head.
Some people failed repeatedly in the provincial examination, and some fell into the trap again and again in the general examination. Although the process sounds a bit tragic, most of these candidates still have some real talents.
However, after decades of passing the county examination, he still failed... I can only say that this candidate is really not suitable for studying.
He was curious about how many words the other party knew!
It was also the first time for Shengyuan to see such a candidate.
She originally thought that such people could only be seen in the provincial examination and the general examination.
"How pitiful!" Lu Sheng shook his head and sighed, "I won't do this! I can pass the exam three or five times at most. If I fail, I won't take the exam!"
"What's so pitiful about him? If we want to say pitiful, then his family must be pitiful!" Anyu had read a lot of such stories from story books recently, and he just felt pity for the candidates' relatives.
"By the way, if he insists on taking the exam like this, he must be avoiding work on purpose!" An Yu touched his chin and guessed, "Scholarships can still be exempted from taxation, so what's the use of a child?!"
Sheng Yuan felt that Anyu's guess was reasonable: "If this is really the case, it would be really sad."
"That's called selfishness!" Anyu folded his arms and snorted, "It's better to make more money for the scientific examinations of our children and grandchildren!"
"Master Hou!"
While the three of them were talking, Chengdong came over with someone.
This man is now the chief of the bodyguard of the Ancheng Hou Mansion.
"Miss!" Xiao Yao didn't feel relieved after not seeing Sheng Yuan come out for a long time, so she followed Cheng Dong to find her.
"Miss, someone just accused Lin Shansheng of having a false bond!" Seeing Sheng Yuan, Xiaoyao spoke crisply about the new things he had just seen outside.
"Fake?!" Sheng Yuan and the other three shouted softly at the same time.
Suddenly, the three people who were chatting just now started making noise around Xiaoyao: "Say it quickly! Say it quickly!"
"It's right in front of the door of the ceremony room, and it's still noisy now!" Xiaoyao couldn't explain clearly, so he pointed it out to them.
As soon as she pointed the direction, the three people who were surrounding her disappeared.
As soon as the three people from Sheng Yuan squeezed into the inner circle from the outside of the crowd, they saw a man who looked like a Linshan student. He stared at the two students who were accusing him with a pale face and said angrily: "Protect the knot! Protect the knot! It's us. Linshan students risked their own culpability to ensure to the imperial government that the candidates complied with the application requirements.
This is about our future. How can we lose our righteousness for small gains? ! I guaranteed my marriage to the girl from the Xue family because she met the conditions. How can you accuse us of false accusations? If you don't make it clear today, I will go to the county government to sue you for falsely accusing a local student and intending to obstruct the exam! "
After he finished speaking loudly, the girl Xue mentioned in his words walked out of the ceremony room.
"Yan Zisheng, you must provide evidence when you speak!"
"If I didn't have evidence, how could I be making such a fuss!" The thin man named Yan Zisheng took out a document from his arms and unfolded it for the people around him to see, "Xue Ziyi, formerly known as Xinan, is the second daughter of the Yan family. We have the duty to be filial to our fathers and to provide for our elders. Who would have thought that once I became a widower, I would change my name when I married into the Xue family and became a girl of the Xue family. No matter how unkind to my parents, my siblings, this is one of the ten major faults. Second! How can such an immoral person take the exam?! Zong Linsheng, do you still dare to say that you have done nothing wrong?!"
Zong Linsheng, who had a dark face, was a little stunned when he heard this. He immediately looked at Xue Ziyi and asked: "Classmate Xue, is what this person said true?"
Before Xue Ziyi could say anything, Yan Zisheng had already said loudly: "There are ten major faults. The first one is lack of support and disobedience, which is an unfilial fault! The second one is insulting one's elders and weakening one's flesh and blood. This is an unfriendly fault! Xue Ziyi, oh , No, it’s Yan Xinan, you have two big faults, how dare you shamelessly refer to it?!”
"You are talking nonsense!" Xue Ziyi was so angry that he trembled all over, and her voice was trembling. "The day I changed my name, the Yan family received 500 taels of silver from the Xue family! They adopted me to The Xue family and the heads of the two clans have made it clear that from now on, I am the daughter of the Xue family and have nothing to do with the Yan family!
You are a drunkard, immoral and prostitute, you are dirty and lowly, and you have committed a shameless and unserious mistake. Someone used your excuse to blackmail you for a thousand taels of silver! The Yan family couldn't get it out, so they invaded the Xue family and tried to use the Xue family's money to relieve the shame of the Yan family. How is this? !
My parents in the Xue family loved me so much that they wanted to pay for it, but I shouldn’t! A daughter of the Yan family was sold to the Xue family twice. I can't still drag down the Xue family with rotten wood like you, right?
Our Xue family doesn't care about it, but the Yan family's father and ancestors send people to cause trouble on the streets of Xue Mansion all day long. I'm so angry that I had a quarrel with my cousins, and you went around slandering me for insulting my elders and rebellious words. Don't forget it. , all the neighbors have heard about it, but you can’t discredit it by just talking nonsense! "
After saying this, she turned around and handed over to Zong Linsheng: "Sir, please take the students to find the county magistrate's old parents to explain clearly."
