The list is released.
It is indeed released.
Only this time, the gate of Gongyuan fell into an eerie silence.
All the candidates stared blankly at the first three names, unable to recover for a long time.
Because there are too many candidates, in order to avoid misleading people with the same name, in addition to the name, the place of birth will also be written on this list!
The birthplaces of Qiu Song, Gu Xingzu and Zhu Yong are all, without exception, Peiping!
This is because during the Jingnan War, the household registrations of almost all the Jingnan heroes were moved to Peiping.
And now during the Yongle period, Peiping has become the place where His Majesty the Emperor flourished. It is a symbol of Jingnan’s original service to the dragon. This is a political qualification. Naturally, no one is stupid enough to change the household registration in Peiping. !
Therefore, the top three in the Yingtianfu Township Examination, all with Peking household registration, are undoubtedly Northern Xinjiang scholars!
This simply subverts all the candidates’ views!
After all, whether it was the Hongwu Dynasty or the Jianwen Dynasty, whether it was the provincial examination or the general examination, this scientific examination has always been the home field of southern scholars, especially students from Jiangxi and Zhejiang provinces. strangeness!
But this time, someone also dominates the list, but it's not a southern scholar, but three Peking scholars!
How is this possible!
When did the Peking scholars become so powerful?
For a time, everyone was talking and in an uproar.
Zeng Qi rubbed his eyes in disbelief, but after opening his eyes again, the names on the list remained unchanged.
First place in the provincial examination, Qiu Song.
The second place in the provincial examination was Gu Xingzu.
The third place in the provincial examination was Zhu Yong.
Fourth place in the provincial examination, Zeng Qi!
fourth place!
His throat rolled, and then it seemed as if all the strength in his body had been exhausted. He felt like the world was spinning and he was about to faint.
Fourth place!
He once boasted that he was talented and knowledgeable, and he also hoped to complete the myth of winning three yuan in a row, and soared into the sky from then on...
As a result, even in the Yingtianfu Township Examination, he only got fourth place in the district!
If he was defeated by Jiangxi talents such as Yang Xiang, Chai Guangjing and Liu Ziqin, Zeng Qi felt better in his heart. After all, they were both fellow townsmen and good friends. There was not much difference in their knowledge levels. It was just that who was luckier.
However, Zeng Qi was defeated by these three little-known people, whose names he had never even heard of before!
How is this possible!
It was simply more uncomfortable than killing him, Zeng Qi!
Zeng Qi forced himself to calm down, then turned around and looked around at all the candidates, shouting loudly: "Which brother is Jie Yuan Qiusong?"
"Yes, which dear friend is this time's Jieyuan?"
"Why don't you come out and see him? Let me admire Jieyuan's style!"
Yang Xiang, Chai Guangjing, Liu Ziqin and others spoke one after another. Naturally, they were unconvinced, and their mentality was similar to that of Zeng Qi.
The three "outsiders" who appeared out of nowhere not only took away what the Jiangxi talents had in their pockets, but also overpowered them very forcefully!
When he heard someone calling his name, Qiu Song immediately hid behind Li Hongbi.
This is a shy young lady.
"Teacher, dad, let's go home, these people... are so vicious."
Li Hongbi smiled and nodded, but Qiu Fu felt a little unhappy.
If you don't return wealth and honor to your hometown, it's like walking in brocade at night. How can you do that?
He Qiu Fu just wants everyone in the world to know that my son Qiu Song, the eldest son of Duke Qi, won the first place in the Yingtianfu Township Examination and passed Xie Yuan!
So Qiu Fu mischievously pushed Qiu Song from behind.
"My son, don't be afraid. Go forward boldly. Dad and your master will support you!"
Qiu Song was suddenly pushed out, instantly attracting everyone's attention, and he was so frightened that he almost cried.
Zeng Xi looked at Qiu Song blankly, and a bright light suddenly flashed through his mind that was originally a mess.
He recalled that after finishing the exam, he said, "The question is too easy."
It was also at that time that they stopped the four masters and disciples of Li Hongbi.
Just now, Li Hongbi cursed them all as trash.
Could it be that……
"Are you Qiu Song?"
Zeng Qi trembled and asked in a trembling voice.
Qiu Song nodded subconsciously, not knowing how to answer.
"Then you two..."
"I'm Gu Xingzu!"
The black-faced man with facial paralysis showed a smile for the first time and took the initiative to reveal his identity.
He thought the expressions of these Jiangxi talents were so funny, as if they were mourning the death of their biological father.
Zhu Yong also grinned when he saw this. He also thought it was really interesting.
"And I, I am Zhu Yong, the third one!"
As the three people revealed their identities, everyone outside the Gongyuan looked at them.
The top three in the provincial examination are all Li Hongbi's disciples?
How is this possible?
Seeing this situation, Li Hongbi had to go out.
"Ahem, what I just said may have been a bit harsh."
"I, these three scoundrels, have better luck and are ranked higher than you. Don't mind that too much!"
It's okay if he doesn't speak, but it's even more hurtful when he does!
Are you so fucking modest?
You are obviously showing off!
Recalling that just now Li Hongbi angrily scolded them all as a bunch of trash, all the Jiangxi talents felt red-faced and extremely ashamed.
Isn't this waste?
Zeng Qi, the best talent from Jiangxi, only got fourth place in the exam.
Even Zhu Yong, their worst disciple, can't compare!
Liu Ziqin was in a daze, and when he suddenly heard Li Hongbi's words, he felt extremely harsh.
He was ranked outside the top ten, which was a huge and unbearable blow to the talented Jishui scholar who thought highly of himself!
Staggering, Liu Ziqin suddenly heard something and shouted viciously: "This is unfair! You... cheated!"
"You are definitely cheating! Otherwise, how could I, a talented person from Jiangxi, not be able to compete with you? The three of you took the top three spots. This is definitely not normal!"
He seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and shouted subconsciously.
Following his voice, the eyes of many failed candidates around him also brightened, as if they had a glimmer of hope.
After all, what these failed scholars like the most is rumors of cheating. If someone really cheats, then the results will naturally not count, and they still hope to take the exam again!
Moreover, this can at least prove that it is not that I am incompetent, but that there are bad people in the examination room!
Liu Ziqin didn't say it was okay, but saying so made Li Hongbi angry.
Did he really not expect that these so-called talented people from Jiangxi would be such scumbags, without even the slightest bit of mind?
"fraud?"
"Then tell me, Liu Ziqin, who leaked this question?"
"The examiner who presides over this provincial examination is Hu Guangda, the current imperial lecturer!"
"Liu Ziqin, do you mean to accuse Mr. Hu of fraud?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
Hu Guang is a well-known Confucian scholar in the world, and he has always been honest and upright.
Even if Liu Ziqin was given a hundred courages, he would not dare to accuse Hu Guang of colluding with Li Hongbi to commit fraud!
"No...I mean..."
Liu Ziqin hesitated and wanted to explain. At this moment, several Gongyuan officials came out and posted the answer sheets of Qiu Song, Zhu Yong and Gu Xingzu next to the apricot list.
This was Hu Yan's arrangement. He had long expected that some scholars might be dissatisfied, so he directly posted the answer sheet to dispel some people's concerns.
The top three articles of the provincial examination were placed in front of them. For a while, the crowd was crowded, and the candidates rushed to check them out.
Zeng Qi read these three articles carefully, and he really wanted to find out the omissions in them.
However, after reading all three articles, he sadly discovered that this article was indeed very well done, both in breaking the topic and in carrying it out very cleverly. The level was far above that of Zeng Qi!
If we continue to make trouble, we will not only lose our reputation as a villain, but also lose our virtuous reputation.
When he thought of this, Zeng Qi sighed, and then gave a solemn salute to Qiu Song.
"Master Qiu is a great talent, and I am convinced by him!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zeng Qi turned and left. He couldn't wait to leave this sad place.
Seeing this, the other Jiangxi talents could only leave in despair.
Looking at their backs, Li Hongbi's face was full of disdain.
But Qiu Fu felt refreshed and couldn't help but laugh loudly.
"The so-called talented man is so virtuous. What a misfortune for the country!"
"Let's go back home and have a drink!"
