Jiang Michia, "..."
The braised pork that Song Jingyun brought to the examination room was made by her.
Originally, she was thinking that her husband-in-law would take the exam, and as a wife, she had to perform well, but she didn't expect that she would be disliked by Song Jingyun.
Hearing such an answer, Tian Zhixing couldn't help laughing.
Oh, during the exam, all I could think about was eating. I was really a waste of money. A person like this still boasts that he can pass the exam. I really don’t know who gave him the courage to say such a thing!
Seeing the disappointment on Jiang Michia's face, Song Jingyun scratched his head again, "Isn't this braised pork made by you, my lady?"
"That's right."
you guessed right.
"No wonder." Song Jingyun chuckled, "The braised pork made by my wife is indeed unique."
This sense of survival!
Jiang Michia glanced at Song Jingyun and said, "Tell me, what's the difference?"
"Well, very refreshing!"
Because he was jealous enough, he was very conscious while eating, and because the taste of the braised pork was not as good as expected, he kept thinking about it...
Jiang Michia, "..."
Why did she ask so many questions?
After all the students came out, Mencius heard that everyone was in good condition, so he simply told them to go home and have a good rest. He also told them that when they go to the academy tomorrow, they can stay an hour later than usual.
This is the first exam, and there will be three more next, with a few days in between.
As for the number of days between, it depends on the notice posted by the county government.
After each exam, the papers will be graded and the list of candidates for the next round of exams will be announced. That is to say, a group of people will be eliminated for each exam.
The task ahead was still very heavy, and Mencius did not dare to relax, nor did he dare to let the students relax.
The students naturally understood this, and after receiving the instructions, they dispersed and went home.
----
Five days later, the county government announced the list of candidates for the second exam.
Mencius checked the list and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the names of these eight students were all listed.
The difficulty level of these four exams is about the same. If you can pass the first one, as long as you perform steadily in the rest, there should be no problem.
Tian Zhixing also came to see the list, but frowned when he saw that two of his students failed the exam.
Bastard stuff!
They are all useless, completely unable to bear the pain of his hard teachings over the years!
The third day after the list is announced will be the second exam. After the exam, the list will be announced on the fifth day, and the third day will be held the next day...
After nearly a month, the county government posted a list of those who passed the county examination.
Eight people, including Song Jingyun, are all on the list.
Especially Song Jingyun, who came first in the county examination.
"Look, let me tell you, I will pass the exam." Song Jingyun narrowed his eyes with a smile.
"Yes, yes, you are right." Mencius was also happy from ear to ear.
The fact that he was able to pass all the county examinations and get the top spot shows that he is a master who teaches well and has a great sense of accomplishment.
Tian Zhixing's face was not so pretty.
There were fewer of his students every time he took an exam. After the last exam, none of his students could be found on the list.
This also means that the entire army was annihilated.
On one side, Mencius, who he hated so much, heard everyone pass, but he didn't get any. In contrast, it was really hard for him to accept.
Meng Zi heard that Tian Zhixing, whose face was ashen, was not interested in paying attention to him, and just smiled.
"Don't be complacent!" Tian Zhixing pointed at Mencius's nose and yelled, "It's just bad luck!"
"You are a master of a small academy, and all the students you teach can pass the exam. Who knows what you have done, and whether there is anything fishy in it!"
When Tian Zhixing finished speaking, there was an uproar around him.
After a dead silence, County Magistrate Li Zhongan walked down the steps, "Master, if I heard correctly, you just said that there was something fishy in this county examination? I just don't know if you have any evidence. ?”
"I……"
Tian Zhixing looked at the county magistrate in front of him and realized that everyone around him was looking at him. He was on pins and needles, sweating profusely, stammering and unable to speak a word.
"If there is no evidence, then you are deliberately slandering?" Li Zhongan glanced at Tian Zhixing, and his tone became more severe, "Slandering other people's examinations is not true, slandering the county government examination is unfair?"
The county examinations were presided over by the magistrates of each county. In order to prevent local favoritism and malpractice, the imperial court would send people to inspect the examinations.
If someone is caught cheating on an exam, and the local officials condone the cheating, he will be severely punished, ranging from losing his job to being imprisoned and exiled.
Therefore, each county magistrate is prepared for the county examination and strives to make no mistakes.
But now someone is saying that there is something fishy in the county examination. This is throwing dirty water at the yamen and putting a hat on Li Zhongan's head. Naturally, he is dissatisfied.
And if someone else is on the list, it is the result of years of hard study. If someone else has problems in the exam, if the rumor spreads, the student's reputation will be ruined, and there will be no future at all.
What you think is just a lighthearted joke can actually ruin some people's lives.
Li Zhongan understands that people's words are frightening, and he is very tired and hates those who make things out of nothing.
So when he spoke to Tian Zhixing at this time, he was full of anger.
Tian Zhixing was also startled, and became even more stuttering and speechless, "I, I..."
"Create rumors and slander out of nothing. Take this person back to the county government and give him ten slaps!" Li Zhongan shouted.
A government official walked up to him, dragged Tian Zhixing to the county government office, gagged him, and started playing tricks.
There was no cry of pain, only the sound of the board falling down, which made my heart even more frightening.
After a while, Tian Zhixing was dragged out again and thrown into the street.
Ten boards was not a particularly severe punishment, but as a scholar and a certain age, Tian Zhixing could not bear such a punishment and could hardly stand up now.
Someone passed by and pointed at Tian Zhixing.
"You deserve it, Master. You don't have any virtue in your mouth."
"The words come right out of your mouth, and you are not afraid of the wind blowing your tongue."
"I heard that none of the students he taught passed the exam this time, so he was jealous of others and said those meaningless words."
"Tsk, you don't even have a conscience anymore..."
Like a rat crossing the street, Tian Zhixing was ashamed and angry at being disliked and disgusted. He just got up and took two steps before he stumbled and fell to the ground again.
Mencius watched this scene with cold eyes and looked up at the sun rising in the sky.
The sun is shining brightly.
Because Mencius heard that all the eight students he taught had passed the county examination, and Song Jingyun also ranked first in the county examination, the entire Hongle Academy became famous.
