The day the results are released.
Ning Caichen and Ma Junji wanted to see the list, but were stopped by Xiaoqian and Zhu Zhengxin.
Zhu Zhengxin said: "Let Miss Xiaoqian go see it for you. Just wait for the news."
Xiaoqian said: "I am walking fast, and I am going to the city to buy some cloth. It won't be long before I come back."
Ning Caichen and Ma Junji knew what they were worried about.
Ma Junji forced a smile and said, "Don't worry, we are not fools and we know how to protect ourselves."
Ma Junji looked at Ning Caichen, and Ning Caichen also said: "It doesn't have to be like this, we know it well."
Xiaoqian had no choice but to say, "Then take me with you."
Zhu Zhengxin couldn't follow them, so he walked them down the mountain, pacing back and forth, sighing.
He was supposed to be a candidate this time. If he had not experienced such a change, he would have been waiting in the city for the results to be announced. He also felt very uncomfortable when he found out that there was fraud in the college examination and that the scholar's quota was being traded.
It was not until evening that Zhu Zhengxin saw Ning Caichen and the others returning. When he was about to ask, he saw Xiaoqian wink and shut up.
When the two scholars entered the monk's house, Xiaoqian said: "There are no winners. We spent a day in the city asking about it. Most of the winners are children of rich and powerful families, even from poor families, and they are also people with little reputation. The remaining few Although the one on the list is unknown and has no wealth, he has already been connected with powerful people."
Zhu Zhengxin took a breath of air and said, "Is it so explicit?"
Xiaoqian said: "That's how explicit it is."
Zhu Zhengxin's pig face showed a sarcastic expression for a moment, and said: "There is no result in this matter."
Xiaoqian looked at him with a puzzled expression.
Zhu Zhengxin said: "You did it so openly because you were not afraid of being exposed. Then this matter cannot be handled by a scholar. Someone with more power must be behind it and make a profit from it. Didn't the two of them start a fight?"
Xiaoqian nodded.
Zhu Zhengxin sighed: "They probably understood this, so they didn't make a fuss."
If you are a scholar or a county official, you can still argue and argue, but if you are a powerful person with a higher status, even if you are trying to break the law, you will not be able to achieve results, and even if you use public resentment, you will be beaten into chaos. Party, even if you are innocent, you have to join in.
Ning Caichen and Ma Junji were so depressed that they didn't eat that night and had no appetite the next day.
Xiaoqian and Zhu Zhengxin looked at each other with helpless expressions.
At night, five ghosts and gods suddenly came to Lanyin Temple. They looked like five elements and five colors, and they were quite majestic.
Xiaoqian was shocked and asked: "Where did the five ghosts and gods come from?"
Huang Changxia smiled and said, "Are you Miss Xiaoqian? We are the retainers of Gong Huzheng, and we are here to invite Mr. Huziyuan to return home."
Xiaoqian has also heard these things from Ning Caichen and Ma Junji these days. It is precisely because of their additions that the image of Gong Mengbi becomes more and more full in the hearts of Xiaoqian and Zhu Zhengxin.
Xiaoqian took them to the monk's house, went up and knocked on the doors of Ning Caichen and Ma Junji: "The retainers of the Fox Fairy are here."
Ning Caichen and Ma Junji came out and saw the five ghosts and gods, so they greeted each other.
The five ghosts said: "My master said that the college examination has passed, please two gentlemen to return to your hometown to teach as soon as possible."
Ning Caichen and Ma Junji managed to cheer up and said, "Okay, we will return to our hometown soon."
Xuandong said: "Master knows that you are worried about the college examination. These days, the master has made many inquiries and learned the inside story of the college examination. He has written it in a letter for you to read."
Xuandong presented the letter, and then the five ghosts and gods took their leave, disappearing into the night like the wind.
Ning Caichen and Ma Junji opened the letter. In the letter, Gong Mengbi expressed his concern through Hu Zi. He also said that he had recently visited a friend and learned a strange thing, saying that the treasury was stolen. Now empty.
When it comes to this, I just hit the point without going into details. But Ning Caichen and Ma Junji understood that what happened during the college examination was no accident, but an unwritten donation.
It is definitely not just Dongyang County that has such a thing, it must happen everywhere. Ning Caichen and the others were the victims to fill the national treasury.
Last year there were floods in the south and drought in the north. In order to raise funds for relief, donations have been made. This year is considered to be a peaceful year, and donations should not be made without reason. It would be ridiculous to encourage donations on the grounds that the treasury has been stolen.
Ning Caichen and Ma Junji reluctantly came back to their senses. Although the anger in their hearts could not be eliminated, they knew the reason and were not so depressed.
I just believe that once an opening is opened and mended again, ugly scars will appear.
After dawn, Ning Caichen and Ma Junji asked Xiaoqian and Zhu Zhengxin to resign.
Xiaoqian and Zhu Zhengxin watched them go down the mountain, and the bustling Lanyin Temple became a lonely place again.
The lively place is Huziyuan.
Gong Mengbi estimated the strength of Ma Junji and Ning Caichen, and announced that classes would resume in five days and exams would be held.
The foxes, who had been resting for nearly a month, immediately fell into wailing and wailing. They flipped through the books one by one and practiced the exercises without daring to sleep.
When Ma Junji and Ning Caichen returned to Huziyuan, they were greeted by depressed students.
After learning about the exam from Gong Mengbi, Ma Junji and Ning Caichen knew the reason.
Gong Mengbi said: "I am busy with official duties these days and have no time to take care of them. If they neglect their studies, they must be taught a lesson."
Gong Mengbi was busy with his official duties and was working with Tianhu Academy.
Because the Goddess decided to let Huhui and Huzheng from all over the country follow Gong Mengbi's example in building Huziyuan, Tianhuyuan compiled the report on the construction of Huziyuan written by him into a fox book. These days, he has been constantly revising and enriching the content. Once completed, it will be distributed as designated teaching materials to Fox Associations and Fox Associations in various places.
At the same time, Tianhu Academy also decided to hire Gong Mengbi as a teaching assistant, responsible for imparting experience in the construction of Fox Academy. It has been scheduled to hold a gathering in Fox Academy after the Mid-Autumn Festival.
There must be difficulties and unexpected situations at that time, so Gong Mengbi had to be alert.
Dr. Huang is very experienced in these matters, and he has been reminding him these days, teaching him how to deal with them calmly and steadily.
This was the first important thing he did after being promoted to Huzheng, and he couldn't afford to mess it up.
However, it was not without surprises. When Gong Mengbi was revising the fox book with the fox fairies in the library, he unexpectedly discovered that these fox fairies were really well-informed and could tell what was coming from all directions.
Even the city gods in Wuning County didn't know that Daqian's treasury had been robbed, but the fox fairy in the library knew everything about it.
There is a very strange atmosphere in the library. Each fox fairy is doing the business at hand while chatting about rumors from all over the world.
Gong Mengbi couldn't get in the conversation. He was practicing in Wuning County, and his information was quite limited compared to these fox immortals. But as a bystander, he listened with interest and learned a lot.
What prompted him to come to Tianhuyuan every day was not only official business, but also gossip.
Building a good relationship with the fox fairy in the library was listed as a relatively important task by Gong Mengbi.
