"Wu Qihao?"
Sheng Changquan looked at the name and said he had never heard of it.
"Is there such a talented person near Tokyo?"
Looking at his posture, Sheng Changquan estimated that he must be an extremely confident, even arrogant person!
If you don't have two brushes in your hand, how can you be so arrogant?
——Unless he is a fool.
Sheng Changquan waved to Xu Changqing behind him: "Changqing, come here!"
"Master!"
Xu Changqing trotted over, waiting for orders.
"Chang Qing, you are asking outside."
Sheng Changquan pointed at Wu Qihao, who was walking in the wind, and ordered: "Who is this Wu Qihao?"
Xu Changqing raised his head and looked at the guy in the examination hall carefully, and nodded heavily: "Yes, sir!"
Sheng Changquan nodded slightly: "Okay, I'll enter first."
With that said, he held the test basket and walked past the guard inspection at the gate.
…
Shou'an Hall.
After the old lady sent Sheng Changquan away, she was helped back to her own courtyard by Minglan. At this moment, she was performing morning prayers in her own Buddhist hall, praying for the children and grandchildren of the Sheng family.
In the pear cupboard, Minglan had no intention of embroidering anything else at this time. All she could think about was Sheng Changquan traveling outside.
After all, this was Sheng Changquan's first time going out alone. As the elder sister, Minglan was inevitably a little worried.
"I don't know how my brother is doing now?"
Minglan sat blankly at the table nearby, looking at "Ms. Li Guards Niangziguan" hanging on the wall in front of her, lost in thought.
"Mom, I hope you can bless my brother to go smoothly and have a smooth literary career!"
Because of Wei Xiaoniang's dying instructions, Minglan still dares not call her A-Niang anymore!
Even if it’s in my heart!
"Girl, don't worry!"
Danju next to him served Minglan a cup of tea soup, and at the same time comforted him: "Brother Quan has a deep foundation and is motivated in reading. This little boy test must be easy to catch!"
"Furthermore, I heard from the magpie in Fifth Girl's Courtyard that Zhuang Xuexue praised Brother Quan's articles and said that even if he takes the provincial examination now, it will be more than enough!"
"Uh-huh!"
Xiao Tao also nodded her head wildly and responded: "Sister Danju is right!"
"Girl, don't worry!"
When the two maids around her said this, Minglan felt relieved and felt that she was indeed too worried.
"Well, you are right, brother, it will all go well!"
After thinking about it, Minglan also smiled and asked: "By the way, Xiaotao, didn't the letter from last time say that there was a letter from me? Did you go and get it?"
Because things have been a bit busy recently, and it's not that convenient for letter carriers to deliver letters, Minglan didn't have time to ask about letters until now.
"Oh, by the way, girl, your letter!"
After Minglan reminded her, Xiaotao suddenly realized it. She immediately took out a hot letter from her arms and handed it to Minglan.
"hey-hey!"
Seeing the angry expression on Dan Ju's side, Xiao Tao smiled innocently and said, "The shredded sugar cheese on the street was so delicious before, so I forgot about it for a while!"
"You!"
Minglan nodded helplessly on Xiao Tao's head and smiled.
"Let me see, who wrote this to me?"
Minglan took the envelope out of curiosity, pulled out the letter paper inside, and read it.
After a while, Minglan's face showed a surprised smile!
"Great, aunt is going to Beijing!"
Without waiting for Xiaotao and Danju to question, Minglan immediately conveyed the good news to those around her.
"Huh? Really?"
Xiaotao licked her lips with a look of aftertaste on her face: "It would be great if aunt really came here!"
"I remember, the pancakes made by my aunt were delicious!"
In the past few years since Sheng Changquan was born, Aunt Wei only came once, and that was when Sheng Changquan was one year old. After that, due to various reasons, she only had people give gifts to her on the birthdays of her two children every year. But he never came once.
Even though Minglan wrote a letter asking her to come, she didn't come. I don't know if she was afraid of being said to be a visitor!
"You foodie!"
When Minglan heard Xiaotao's words, she couldn't laugh or cry!
"Auntie said in her letter that she had something to tell me when she came this time!"
"That's...a very important thing!"
Thinking back to what she just read in the letter, about the incident a few years ago, Minglan's expression suddenly became much lower, and even her eyes suddenly became much deeper.
It was like there was a mist surging in it.
…
Yin County.
A place where children's examinations are concentrated near Bianliang City.
At this moment, it has been six hours since the candidates entered the venue.
Due to Taizu's determination to reform, there were two exams for children, one in the morning and the other in the afternoon. Each exam lasted for one and a half hours. In the morning, there was a test on sutras, which was a test of memory ability such as dictating and filling in the blanks; It is a test of poems and poems, with questions set by the examiner to show their talents to the best of their ability.
Taizu of this dynasty once said, "Those who are born as children are still boys, and there is no need to be complicated."
Therefore, this dynasty only takes two tests in the first child examination, one is to test the foundation of the classics, and the other is to test the sharpness of thinking, to get rid of the nerds who can only study hard, lest they do not know how to adapt and will harm the people in the future.
…
As time passed little by little, the door to the examination center was finally opened again.
"Bang!"
"Come out! Come out!"
Some family members of Kaozi who were waiting outside shouted.
"Ah? Master!"
"Brother!"
"younger brother!"
"..."
The cheers immediately made the scene much more lively.
"Master!"
The sturdy Xu Changqing was tall and tall, and he could spot Sheng Changquan in the crowd at a glance.
"Master! Master!"
Xu Changqing stepped forward with his long legs and used his strong body to push forward, immediately opening a path through the crowd.
"Master!"
Xu Changqing came to Sheng Changquan's side with a naive smile, took the exam basket from his hand, and squeezed a way out for him.
"hehe!"
Sheng Changquan patted Xu Changqing's strong muscles and said with a smile: "Changqing, your body is really strong!"
"hey-hey!"
Xu Changqing led the way with a silly smile, but didn't say much.
"By the way, are you listening clearly outside?"
"Then who is Wu Qihao?"
It's funny to say that Wu Qihao's location in the examination room happened to be near Sheng Changquan's examination center. Moreover, this guy was really confident. He handed in the paper in advance shortly after the afternoon session started, swaggering Went out.
It's a pity that this guy didn't know that the examiner of the children's examination was Mr. Cui, the academician of Yin County. Mr. Cui was a late bloomer and had a calm temperament. He looked down on those who relied on their talents and were arrogant. At this time, Wu Qihao actually dared to Handing in the paper in advance under his nose, unless he is particularly talented, his end will definitely be bad!
It is said that this understanding of the temperament of the examiner is a small secret of scientific examination that only people like the Sheng family, whose family has officials and Qingliu poetry and calligraphy, can understand. From this, it can be seen that there must be no official in Wu Qihao's family.
