When the test is coming, all talented people will gather in Beijing. Northern officials often travel to Beijing in the first month of January, where the southern imperial examinations are popular, and candidates with more experience, they often travel to Beijing by boat a few months before the test for a stable review.

Jinling, Suzhou, Hangzhou, Jiangxi, and Huguang are all major scientific research provinces that have produced many scholars in the past. For example, Chen Qin, Zhu Han, Cheng Kai, Jiang Mian and others who can spread the name of talents in the south of the Yangtze River can count as true talents that can beat the country. Taxi. Even if the Northern Juzi is famous in Beijing, in the eyes of southerners who are proficient in scientific research, they can only be regarded as second-rate figures.

Since the six talents from Qian'an were invited to Beijing by Cui Xie, they have often heard such criticisms. Even the "Three Kingdoms" they commented on teaches people to be critical and thorough. They think they don't read deeply enough, and the text is also sparse. Although Jiangnan Sanchi Boys can write such text!

The name of the six talented scholars is purely the color picture of "Three Kingdoms" and the criticism text printed on the outside of the page. The color of the commentary is different, and the typography is beautiful and neat!

Guo Yong, Tang He, Wang Zhichang, and Lu An faced the test. They were afraid that they didn't have enough time to study. They followed Cui Xie in a closed-door test, and their eyes on the outside world were dark. Only Xu Liyan and Shen Zheng, who were not in the middle, were free-minded, and under the name of Six Talents. Some in Beijing were kindly invited by friends and fans of the same year. Today’s poems will be held in the restaurant tomorrow. Gossip in the ears.

They were indignant and wanted to argue with those people. They were just talents. They were not as knowledgeable and poetic as the juren who had fought out from the pile of talents, so they had to endure depressed.

They were willing to bear it, but the other side refused to stop. After discussing the Qian'an people who dared to claim to be a genius, they discussed the gap between the North and the South Guozijian. A group of people touted each other, saying that the standard of Nanjian was higher than that of Beijian. There was only one true talent in Beijian, that is, Jiangxi Xieyuan Feihong who was directly sent to Beijian to study after he passed the scientific examination last time.

As for a certain Qian'an Juzi Cui Xie, it was only because of the mentor of a literary master who was born in Chaling, southern China, who compiled a few books with the help of the teacher, and bought it.

Xu Liyan finally couldn't bear it, and started to shoot the case: "Cui Hezhong is a really talented person. His Qiuwei articles are sold in Ju'anzhai. Is it the kind of person you say, a reputation!"

The scholar gave him a contemptuous look: "Ju'anzhai's book? Except for the few sets of imperial examination notes, what is a good book? It is the imperial examination notes, not by Cui Hezhong, he just It took up a student status, and Li Xueshi helped to ask someone to compile it, so this set of books was published."

Xu Liyan said angrily: "What do you know! The topic in the imperial examination notes series was the first that he came up with. This is Prince Lian..."

He was about to explain in detail how Cui Xie got on the path of the test questioner, but he didn't want to be annoyed by a hawker who was drinking.

The young man with a mustache wearing a big red pinch his waist and a deep green cloak walked straight over, re-photographed them on the table of the lifting children, and said with eyebrows: "What nonsense are you talking about Ju'anzhai has no good books! Ju'anzhai's imperial examination notes? You Master Wang has never read it. Their "Six Talents Criticism on the Three Kingdoms", "Wang Yao Niang's Pipa Ji" and the new Jin Yiwei comics are all very beautiful. Do you have eyes? Dare to say these books are not good!"

Those few people made him wince in fright, but seeing him wearing a melon cap on his head, his aura is also rude, the superiority of the talent in his heart rises again, and he snorted: "It's just a painting for children. In this book, the painting is still Jin Yiwei... Is this kind of kitsch worthy of being a good thing!"

People surnamed Wang repeatedly tweeted them: "How come Jin Yiwei's painting book is not a good thing? Do you dare to talk to me at Fusimen in Beizhen? Really, people who have never seen the world shouted with joy," "The Story of Wang Yanniang's Pipa" is a play that the emperor loves to watch. Do you see the emperor in your life!"

Those few candidates were about to take the test, and they couldn't hear this curse the most, their faces flushed, and angrily said: "Rough and brash..."

The Wufu smiled: "This is a big court, you have the courage to insult a court official. This officer will go to the Secretary of General Affairs to ask if you want an examinee like you at the Ministry of Rites! Hehe, I really think I am Zhuge Liang, You can swear Wang Lang to death by bulging your lips and shaking your tongue, but don't have Zhuge's heart, but you have a good life!"

A middle-aged man a few years older at his table shook his head and smiled: "Xiang Zhen is still so sexual as a raging fire. What to say to these people, they only know how to sorrow others, and how they understand the hardship of our military officers."

Another person laughed and said: "I think he has been more calm in the past two days when he returned to Beijing. At least he didn't run around dressed up as Lu Bu and Zhao Yun. He changed his studies to Zhuge Liang to fight against the Confucian scholars, which is considered a profit. After a few years of experience with your uncle, you will naturally mature."

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Where is he Jinyi? It's the dress that Jingli is not happy with. The fashionable one is the tight clothes that Jin Yiwei likes to wear. He hurries to wear new ones..."

The two people on the table talked and laughed to themselves. Wang Xiangzhen finished his tongue-in-cheek battle with the Confucian scholars and returned in a big victory. He proudly poured a glass for the two Shangguan colleagues and said: "Have fun! This time I can finally have a good time. I like Cui... I like the colorful books published by our Qian'an Bookstore. After the palace exam, their family will hold a poem meeting for the six talents of the Three Kingdoms, which is definitely different from the poem meeting of those sour scholars, maybe It must be a garden party like the Three Kingdoms and Five Beauties General Election. When the time comes, my little brother will entertain, and our brothers will all go see and see!"

The two geniuses listened to the side with their hearts beating slightly, and they felt their chests and thought about this possibility--could it be that they have to go on stage to sing, dance and chant like the five beauties they said... and show them?

Nothing!

After looking back, I have to talk to Cui Hezhong that they can't sing or dance, so they can only make do with reading a poem on stage!

They were worried here, and the Prince Wang sighed again: "I'm afraid that all of you will have to try this. Will it delay the release of a new "Jin Yiwei" picture book? This second volume will only be painted. When I went to Anqianhu to send people into the den of thieves, there was a short and ugly widow who wanted to treat him unruly. I saw that I was straining my heart and trying to save people. I wouldn’t know him, because of this exam, they will only do it this month. There is nothing new..."

This sentence aroused the worries of the whole house.

Even the few examples that I just called Wang Gongzi scolded, even though they said that the Jinyiwei comics were not worth seeing, I had bought the first two issues in private, and I have seen them more than once. Of course, they not only look at the beauties in it, nor do they substitute themselves into Jinyiwei, but love the story to write ups and downs, and give birth to unprecedented whims. And the poems and sentences with paintings are also zhuji. After reading them, they will make people's teeth and cheeks leave their faces. I can't help but read the aftertaste again and again.

They don’t know that the real owner behind the bookstore is Cui Xie like Prince Wang, Shen, and Xu do. They worry that the bookstore will stop publishing new books because of his exams, just like the one he tried. Shouldn't you buy it?

I bought it and read it. Will the next day in the examination room be distracted by thinking about the tense stories in the book, which will affect their writing? If you don’t buy it, will it be because the new book has come out, the more you don’t buy, the more you want to read it, and the more you think about it?

And the test is from the ninth to the fifteenth day, and there are four days of rest in between. Can they manage not to buy books for these four days?

This Ju'an Zhai is really hateful, what new book will be published on the day of fast examination!

I don’t know how many people secretly cursed the boss of Ju’anzhai. Cui Xie also told them to sneezes a few times behind his back. He quickly asked someone to fry thick **** soup. By the way, he gave the four talents who used to live in his home to prepare for the exam. A bowl.

The test is imminent, even if you are not sick, you must prevent it. So many years of hard work have been sent to the game. If the wind and cold affect the performance, wouldn't it be a panic?

The four of Guo Yong sat in the test shed where he specially asked people to follow Gongyuan’s high copy. They were making a mock test in a leaky test room. They were so cold that they had to drink such a bowl of thick **** soup, but they were sweating all over, writing articles. There is also spirit. In the evening, they said: “I wrote down another experience. Even if you don’t bring steamed buns on the day of the exam, you have to bring some grated ginger, and you will warm up with **** soup in the room.”

The mock test really works. If they haven't experienced the suffering at home beforehand, they will experience the coldness on the court, which will affect the thoughts of writing for a long time.

When Xu Liyan and Shen Zheng waited until they were out of the "examination room", they couldn't help telling them that Southern officials looked down upon them in Qian'an, and asked them to take the exam. Five of them were in the same position and they were embarrassed. face.

Cui Xie sneered: "They said that the Jinyiwei's academic and painting books in Ju'anzhai were not well written? Kitsch? Haha, he had better pray for God and worship Buddha, hoping that his scientific examination would be worse, otherwise..." How dare to DISS the future first assistant Yang Dadao's script, Wang Shengren, his father and Hanlin's scripts are not well written? If this person is admitted to the Imperial Academy, the big guys will teach him every minute to reshape the Three Views!

Xu and Shen thought that he was writing a poem and an essay scolding those who do not know what to do. They immediately came to their minds and said positively: "Anyway, it is a few of the Nanjing Imperial College, the leader seems to be called Father Ni. , The rest are unnamed. A righteous man surnamed Wang went over and scolded them on the spot, and that Wang Yishi still liked the paintings and calligraphy of Ju'anzhai very much, and said that he would participate in the poem meeting of our six talented scholars. If you see it then, We will point him out for you!"

Cui Xie nodded: "This is a righteous man. When you turn around and ask people to make clothes for you, you will also make him a suit. When you draw a lottery, you will make a hand and foot and give it to him to reward him for defending our reputation as a talented person in Qian'an."

What clothes do we have?

The six talented scholars all said politely: "No need, no, we live in your house and do your questions. We have already taken a lot of advantage by borrowing your test shed. How can we ask you to make clothes?"

Mr. Cui laughed and said: "To do it! A few brothers are talents who comment on the Three Kingdoms. Why don't they wear the charm of the Three Kingdoms when they come on stage to write poems? Where can you go straight up in the green satin? Readers who follow you will also look at the disadvantages. I mean. I have arranged for someone to pick up clothes for you. When we finish the hall exam with peace of mind, the elders will put on the new clothes of Wei-Jin romantic style, and let the world see our romantic talents in Qian'an, okay?"

Yeah, okay... Anyway, Kyori wears everything nowadays, and they don't seem to be outdone in their wide robe and sleeves.

The six talented scholars answered silently, and Shen Zheng asked: "You guys want to take the test, so you don't dare to waste time. Ziyan and I don't have to take the test. Can you first see what clothes it is?"

Cui Xie smiled and nodded: "The two elder brothers are willing to help. Naturally it is better. A few of us are about to enter the venue. Regardless of this, the elder brothers asked the treasurer. If you participate, the selection of talented men and dresses will definitely be done more satisfactorily."

The two of them don't have to take an exam, and they feel a little awkward in their hearts when they stay in Jinglikong. If you always go outside to eat and drink, and you are afraid that you will easily run into other talents to criticize them and make you feel sulking, it is better to come and help them in Ju'anzhai to become the first adviser of the Three Kingdoms, the first poet, the first loyal minister, the first prime minister, the first general, The selection of the first hermit.

The six first people were selected, which corresponded to their six Qian'an talents, and they changed into the clothes worn by the characters in the book when they signed for the sale. How eye-catching? At that time, how many readers will buy hardcover books and ask them to sign the poem!

Cui Xie gratefully entrusted them with important matters, and packed the exam basket with the four talents who were about to test: he brought a felt roof, a large piece of linoleum for door curtains, a full-length leather jacket, leather skirt, and leather boots. Don't be afraid of hard biscuits, pancakes, homemade luncheon meat, a copper pot with a warm jacket, thick dried ginger, and then pen, ink, paper and inkstone for scientific research.

On the morning of September 1st, February, it was still the fourth watch to check in. Cui Xie and the four talented scholars from Qian'an, carrying baskets and sleeves to test the tickets, arrived outside the venue early, and joined the early exam candidates, talking and laughing in the fierce cold wind.

Outside of such a rigorous examination room, he even vaguely heard someone say from the wind: "I thought about half the night the day before yesterday. I went to buy a new comic book last morning. I can't feel relieved if An Qian's household is safe and sound. Take the exam. Guess how the widow who wanted to be rude to the thousand households died?"

Cui Xie loves to hear people say these things, so he pays his attention slightly, wanting to hear how they evaluate the new pamphlets.

But those scholars who stood close to the speaker and who had never read the new Jinyiwei paintings would hate him to death-he was relieved after reading it, but when he was about to take the test, he had to say that these provoke people. Thinking of things, how can others take the exam at ease!
