Everyone couldn't help but be astonished and turned to Fa Sheng. It turned out to be Xie Yong and Li Wenquan.
"Check the papers, check the papers, and ask for them to be checked tomorrow." More than a dozen people followed suit and shouted with all their strength.
"Great Talent Yang, you didn't understand shit in the last exam, and now you are Jieyuan. There must be something wrong with it." Xie Yong put down his teacup, looked at Yang Derong who was still handing out copper coins, and expressed his doubts to everyone.
His words won the approval of many officials who passed the examination. After all, Yang Derong's test scores were too poor last time.
"What I have been doing for the past three years is living in poverty," Li Wenquan simply stood on a bench in the inn and delivered a speech. "What did the talented Yang do? I wasted his studies and worked in the workshop."
Hearing this, those officials all looked at Yang Derong with contempt.
But they were disappointed. Yang Derong still had a calm expression on his face and continued to reward the boy with money.
In fact, not only Juzi was furious, but also those students who failed to pass the exam were also talking about it.
Student Zhang Sanlang said to Li Silang: "This great talent from Yang was not as good as me in the exam three years ago. This year he jumped up and became Jieyuan. Aren't you just dreaming?"
"It's really unbelievable, unbelievable." Li Silang nodded, "These actions of theirs are definitely causing trouble. How will the government handle this matter? Let's wait and see what happens."
The next day, dozens of candidates who had just passed the examination, as well as hundreds of scholars who had not passed the examination, came to the gate of the Changzhou government office.
They raised their hands in protest and submitted petitions to the government, requesting access to Jieyuan's papers.
Chen Shiqi, the magistrate of Changzhou, stroked his beard and said to Tu Dawei, the general judge: "It seems that Yang Derong has become Jieyuan. These scholars are very unconvinced."
"Zizhen (Chen Shiqi's alias), it seems that things are getting serious for these scholars, what should we do?" Tu Dawei looked at the petition and looked at Chen Shiqi.
The title of the scripture was written by Chen Shiqi, and the poem was written by Tu Dawei.
These scholars did not target Tu Dawei in causing trouble this time, which reassured Tu Dawei.
On the one hand, he hopes that something will happen to Chen Shiqi, but on the other hand, he does not want anything to happen to Chen Shiqi.
Only when something happened to Chen Shiqi could he have room for improvement; but if Chen Shiqi's incident became a big deal, it would be a major blow to the entire government.
If Changzhou fails to resolve the matter and bring the matter to Tongchuanfu Road, the milder person will be reprimanded, and the more serious person will be transferred from Changzhou.
Not only was it a serious blow to Chen Shiqi, but it was also a major blow to Changzhou's education and official prestige.
Chen Shiqi looked at Tu Dawei and the chief clerk Liu Yu, and said calmly: "Of course the test papers will be made public. Not only Jie Yuan will be made public, but also the top ten will be made public."
Liu Yu took a look at Tu Dawei, agreed, and arranged for officials to make the top ten test papers public.
Liu Yu and Tu Dawei had different ideas. He had just arrived in Changzhou and was not familiar with Changzhou's officialdom.
One reason is that he is young, almost ten years younger than Tu Dawei. Another reason is that Chen Shiqi treats him well.
The test papers were finally released at the Shenming Pavilion in front of both sides of the government gate. The Shenming Pavilion was used to educate the people, so it was best to post this.
Zhang Sanlang read the top ten papers, held his stomach and faced Li Silang, laughing loudly and said: "I'm laughing to death, I'm laughing to death."
"Don't the top ten ask for the papers to be released? Now we finally got what we wanted. Let's see what they say?" Li Silang was not as excited as Zhang Sanlang, but his mouth was full of disdain.
"After reading Xie Yuan's article and then looking at other people's articles, they are indeed not on the same level." Zhang Sanlang stopped laughing and calmed down and said, "Xie Yuan's article was written in one go, and it was a joy to read."
"Flying down three thousand feet, it is suspected that the Milky Way has fallen into the sky." Li Silang looked at it carefully, nodded and praised: "I seem to find this feeling in Jieyuan's article."
Xie Yong and Li Wenquan stood at the back of the crowd and had the clearest view.
Xie Yong read his own article on classics and meanings, and then read Li Wenquan's article, and couldn't help but be stunned.
Li Wenquan couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw Xie Yong's gaze.
"Is this article written by Yang Derong? I can't believe it." Xie Yong raised his doubts.
Li Wenquan nodded, believing what Xie Yong said: "It feels like he already knows the answer and has practiced it many times."
"Did someone leak the topic?" After the two came out, Xie Yong couldn't help but ask Li Wenquan.
He originally wanted to say that Zhizhou was telling the truth, but he didn't have the courage. After all, this statement was too scary.
If what he says reaches the ears of the Zhizhou, and the Zhizhou investigates his head, and he has no evidence, his title of Juren may also be deprived.
"No one has the guts. After all, this is just a candidate's examination, not a Jinshi examination." Li Wenquan thought for a while, shook his head and said, "The risk is too high and it's not cost-effective."
Xie Yong thought for a while, nodded for a while, shook his head for a while, and then sighed.
Check the papers, these students can make trouble with him, but if someone leaks the questions, there will be no one, unless he has conclusive evidence.
Yang Derong was not far from them and happened to hear the three people talking.
He was extremely angry when he heard the conversation between Li Wenquan and Xie Yong.
You suspected that my essay was not good and asked the government to release the test papers. Now the government has made the test papers public.
The government has made the test papers public, finally allowing all students to see the true nature of your articles.
But when I saw that your article was very different from mine, I suspected that the examiner had leaked the questions.
Chen Zhizhou had a good reputation, but he was slandered by others in the official circles of the Song Dynasty.
However, except for Yang Derong's own defense, no one among these students believed that he relied on his own efforts.
Even my classmate Du Changjiang couldn't help but be stunned after reading Yang Derong's article. He looked at him repeatedly as if he didn't know him.
Of course, Du Changjiang would never say it, but it just felt strange.
"Congratulations Zizhen, this Yang Derong Jingyi has seen it before. He is indeed a talented scholar." Standing not far from these scholars, Liu Yu looked at the scholars on the third floor of Shenming Pavilion and looked at Chen Shiqi. Give him a bow.
Tu Dawei rolled his eyes and said to Chen Shiqi: "The official has read Yang Derong's article carefully and found that his style is very similar to that of the same person."
Chen Shiqi just stroked his beard and looked at everything in front of him with a smile, without speaking.
"Zi'an (characterized by Tu Dawei), may I ask who his style is like?" Liu Yu bowed his hands and asked curiously.
Tu Dawei looked at Liu Yu and said calmly: "Zi Gao (characterized by Liu Yu), can you tell who he quoted in his article?"
"He quoted from the little saint, could he be..." Liu Yu did not continue, but had doubts.
Tu Dawei nodded and said thoughtfully: "Not only did he quote the meaning of the scriptures of the little sage, but he also tried his best to imitate the style of the little sage."
"He did not study in Changzhou this year. I heard that he went to Zhaojiazhuang. Could it be that he is a student of the Little Sage?" Liu Yu thought for a while and raised his suspicion, "It makes sense that he has made such great progress."
"Whether he is a student of the Little Saint, Wei doesn't know," Tu Dawei pondered for a while and then made his own guess, "But judging from his writing, he did receive guidance from the Little Saint."
"It's just that he is almost ten years older than the little saint. Does he have the nerve to sit with those boys and girls?" Liu Yu thought of Yang Derong sitting in a classroom with boys or boys ten years younger than him in order to study. I couldn't help but smile from ear to ear.
"Judging from his writing style, he did get the guidance of the little sage," Chen Shiqi looked at the two of them, stroking his beard, and finally said, "It seems that the little sage is indeed extraordinary. Not only did he write articles that shocked the world, but he also made his disciples transform into corrupt ones. Magic as power.”
Tu Dawei and Liu Yu looked at each other, bowed their hands to Chen Shiqi, and said in unison: "Congratulations to Zizhen, Changzhou's teachings have shocked the world. There was a little saint before him who was born across the world, and now his disciples have become talents."
"Changzhou's teachings are famous all over the world. It is the result of everyone's concerted efforts." Chen Shiqi said hurriedly while returning the courtesy.
The three of them looked at each other and couldn't help laughing, feeling extremely happy.
With Zhaojiazhuang in Changzhou, not only the tax revenue ranks among the best in Sichuan, but now the education is attracting the world's attention.
Who dares to say otherwise? Can your state capital also produce talents like a little saint?
I believe that in the next year's assessment, they will definitely be the best, and the progress of the three of them is just around the corner.
Du Changjiang was also beside Yang Derong now. Hearing the conversation of the three most powerful people in Changzhou, he finally understood the reason why his classmate and friend took off.
He couldn't help but be overjoyed, bowed deeply to Yang Derong, and said, "Congratulations, Ziyu, for becoming a disciple of the little saint."
"Ashamed, the little saint is indeed very busy. He just took a day to give me some advice." Yang Derong shook his head, feeling a little embarrassed.
Du Changjiang seemed to have seen a monster and didn't believe what Yang Derong said at all: "The little saint only taught you for one day, how can your reputation change so much?"
"That's true, but the little sage also gave me a good thing, which is the dictionary in your hand." Yang Derong paused here and said, "This dictionary was also compiled by the little sage himself."
"Is this dictionary so useful?" Du Changjiang asked thoughtfully.
Yang Derong did not answer him directly, but asked: "Have you ever used "Shuowen Jiezi"?"
Du Changjiang nodded and said: "Of course I have used it. If you don't understand anything, please ask this book for help. It can be said that it is Yu's second teacher."
"This dictionary is ten times easier to use than "Shuowen Jiezi"." Yang Derong bowed his hand in the direction of Chengdu, then glanced in the direction of Chengdu with admiration, took a deep breath, and said, "Thank you, little sage, for letting students There has been a qualitative leap.”
Du Changjiang no longer had any doubts at this time, and followed Yang Derong to salute in the direction of Chengdu to express his gratitude to the little saint.
"Ziyu, I took a quick look at this dictionary, and I have something to ask you for." Du Changjiang bowed respectfully to Yang Derong and asked.
Yang Derong was in a very good mood at this time. Not only did he become Jieyuan, but he also received explanations from the government.
Yang Derong returned the gift and said happily: "You and I are both classmates and friends, but it doesn't matter."
Du Changjiang wiped off the non-existent dust on his body, respectfully held the well-kept "Zhaojiazhuang Dictionary", pointed at it and said, "Ziyu, I don't recognize this person, what should I do?"
