The news spread throughout the Bai Mansion, and everyone was very excited, except Bai Song.
For the girls in the family, this is definitely the biggest opportunity for the Bai family.
The fact that the princess appointed him as a disciple of Yu Shinan meant that the Bai family also had a disciple.
Moreover, if you gain fame in the future and have Yu Shinan as your introduction, your starting point will be higher and you will have someone to belong to.
For the family, they also took off their hat as a merchant.
The Bai family has a legitimate identity.
Although the family now has money and a prosperous life, these girls still think about one day watching Bai Song enter the court as an official.
Because in their hearts, only by becoming an official in the court can they truly have a future.
Bai Song understood their thoughts and knew that they were all thinking about themselves.
Seeing them so happy, I thought that for no other reason than this woman, I had to go to the capital for a visit.
It's just that Bai Song still feels a little lonely after all, especially at this time, when he doesn't feel that there is anyone who really understands him.
The news not only spread in the Bai Mansion, but also quickly reached the ears of all the major families. All the major families in Youzhou came to congratulate them one after another. There were constant visitors and gifts every day. Even families from other counties who had no friendship with her came to congratulate her.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the future of the Bai family is unlimited, and it is only a matter of time before they become famous.
Bai Song, on the other hand, had to change many plans because of this sudden incident.
Two months passed quickly, and he had to arrange everything in Jixian before he could go to the capital with peace of mind.
…
The embankment of the Wei River is still being repaired. After more than a month of renovation, the Wei River has been successfully dammed. Now the work of cleaning up the river channel is beginning. The embankment has been reinforced with cement, giving both sides of the Wei River a new look.
The Xicheng development plan is a huge project. For this reason, Bai Song and Xiang'er have reduced their nighttime activities. Instead, they lean on each other's pillows and often chat all night long.
After leaving Jixian, only Xiang'er could help him complete his most ambitious idea.
Qing'er has already taken the lead to clear the way to the capital. Since fate allows Bai Song to go to the capital, then he will open the door to the capital.
News just came back that Mo Bai Qianzhuang has opened its first store in the capital. Although there are not many customers, it has finally gained a foothold and is only waiting for Bai Song to arrive.
There are still many things that are uneasy in Jixian, but Bai Song also has to deliver the things one by one.
On the first day of the Bai Song Dynasty's departure for Beijing, the autumn trial was published.
Doing the math, Bai Song came to Datang for a full year.
…
At that moment, the prefect's mansion was crowded with countless disciples guarding the announcement.
Even though Bai Song knew the result and thought he would leave here tomorrow, he wanted to join in the fun.
There are a total of 48 places in Youzhou this fall.
In total, there are more than 1,100 test papers compiled.
The competition for a scholar is so fierce, and the subsequent spring examination and palace examination are self-evident.
The list was announced and the crowd was excited.
Bai Song squeezed outside and couldn't see anything.
"You all give way! Let my young master take a look!" Dongxiang shouted impatiently from the side, but no one paid any attention.
Bai Song knelt down and said, "Come here, I'll carry you on my back, and you can help me take a look."
"Ah?" Dongxiang blushed, "How does this happen?"
"Oh, I'll leave tomorrow and you won't be able to see me anymore. Why do you still care about this?"
Dongxiang knew the young master's temperament and would not care about the difference between master and servant. Thinking that they would be separated tomorrow, Dongxiang felt sad, so she simply went off the rails today and jumped on the young master's back boldly.
Bai Song exerted his strength, stood up and lifted Dongxiang high: "Did you see it? Whose names are there?"
Dongxiang swayed on Bai Song's back and stared at it for a long time, muttering the names of the people she saw.
While thinking about it, Dongxiang suddenly let out a light sigh.
Bai Song asked: "What's wrong?"
Dongxiang rubbed her eyes and couldn't believe it: "Bai...Bai...Bai Song! Master, it's your name! It's the last one! Bai Song! Master, you passed the exam to be a scholar! Ah! Master, you passed the exam to be a scholar!" Got it!"
Touka screamed with excitement, instantly attracting countless gazes.
I heard before that Bai Song failed to answer three questions, and the whole family had no expectations for the results.
Precisely because I didn't come with hope, I became more and more excited when I saw Bai Song's name appearing on the notice.
Dongxiang was so excited that she almost flew up, and Bai Song couldn't hold it back.
"Hey, did you make a mistake? Did I really pass the exam? I shouldn't have!"
"Really! Really! Master, if you don't believe it, you can see it yourself!"
The conversation between the two had attracted attention, and the crowd dispersed.
The announcements were distributed throughout the county. There were hundreds of candidates gathered at the gate of the prefect's mansion to watch, but none of them passed the exam.
And Bai Song instantly became the focus of the scene.
All kinds of envious and jealous eyes from around him looked at Bai Song with a strange look on his face.
The people around him dispersed, and the front could be seen clearly.
As expected, Bai Song saw his name at the bottom of the list.
Bai Song, the last one among the forty-eight people!
"I...I really passed the exam?"
Bai Song rubbed his eyes and couldn't believe it.
"My young master is so awesome!"
Dongxiang's excitement continued, and she kissed Bai Song on the face with joy, but the next second her face turned red again.
But the candidates around him didn't care about this scene at all, but felt incredible.
At this time, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted: "This is unfair! We don't accept it! This Bai Song relied on his relationship with the princess to bribe the examiner and bought his fame with money! I was in the same examination room as him and happened to see him The test paper, he only answered the last question in the test paper, and did not answer the three questions! How could he pass the exam like this!"
As soon as these words came out, there was a surge of echoes.
Rumors about Bai Song had long been spread, and it was said that he bribed the examiner, and it turned out to be true today.
In an instant, all the candidates protested loudly: "We are not convinced! We are not convinced by the fame that Bai Song bought!"
"Yes! Call the chief judge out! Give us many students an explanation, otherwise we will sue you to the capital!"
The situation got out of control. Hundreds of candidates were noisy and attracted more candidates from other places. At one time, hundreds of candidates protested angrily and almost rushed into the prefect's mansion.
Seeing that the situation was getting worse and worse, a person came out of the prefect's mansion, who was the examiner for this year.
Everyone was filled with indignation: "Give us an explanation! Bai Song only took one question, why was he chosen?!"
Faced with the general's protest, the examiner was confident and took out a letter: "Everyone, this is a letter written by Mr. Zhang Liang, Minister of the Ministry of Industry. What is said in the letter is personally recommended by Mr. Zhang Liang. Bai Song's instructions on how to The management of rivers is a great achievement that can benefit future generations for hundreds of years. Such achievements should be used to select talents. If you are not convinced, go to Beijing to report to the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and don't shout in front of the prefect's house."
"..."
The scene fell silent. No one thought that this matter could involve the Minister of Industry? He secretly said that the princess could not be helping through her connections with the Minister of Industry, right? But as a princess, why not speak out and go round the bush?
No one in the crowd had reacted yet, and the examiner continued: "You can answer a thousand words, but it is not as good as Bai Song's one question. You may not know that Bai Song's answer sheet has been included in the "New Examination" compiled by Hongwen Museum. The book "Gong Ji" can be used as a reference for future generations in the construction of water conservancy projects, and his achievements can be passed down for thousands of years."
