Under the onlookers of the people of the Ming Dynasty, there was only a team of guards, leading a tall and colorful horse, coming with drums and gongs.

When an officer came to Zhuangyuan Building, the shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him with a smile.

"Gu Dingchen from Shaoxing Mansion, is Mr. Gu staying with you?"

"Yes, yes, yes, Master Gu Dingchen is staying in the small shop, why, are you in high school?"

The shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him with a smile.

The guard shouted loudly: "Report! Master Gu Dingchen of Shaoxing Prefecture, No. 1 champion in the Enke Palace Examination of High School!"

"what?"

"It really is the number one scholar!"

The shopkeeper's eyes widened, and then he looked happy. The number one winner came from his guest officer. In the next three years, the business will be booming, so don't worry.

He hurriedly turned his head and told the waiter in the shop: "What are you doing in a daze, what are you doing in a daze, set off the firecrackers quickly, set off the firecrackers quickly, you don't have any eyesight!"

As he spoke, he handed over a bag of silver to the guard.

"This is the number one scholar's master asking the younger ones to drink for all the officials and masters. Please accept it with a smile."

"Ok!"

Weighing the bag of silver in his hand, the guard nodded in satisfaction.

Everyone knew that this bag of silver could not have come from Zhuangyuan Lang, it must be the shopkeeper's private opinion to curry favor with Zhuangyuan Lang.

That's why the guard dared to accept it with a smile. Otherwise, he dared to accept the money from the champion?

For so many years, it has long been common for them to announce good news.

The guard said: "Hurry up and ask the champion to come out, let the little ones bow their heads to announce the good news, and wait for the horse to parade through the street."

"Oh, that's right!"

The shopkeeper slapped his head, and then came to his senses, and hurriedly said: "Young ones, please go here, and young ones, please go here."

After finishing speaking, he happily turned around and ran upstairs.

The Jinshi candidates in the restaurant had already been alarmed and came downstairs one after another.

When the shopkeeper saw Gu Dingchen, he immediately knelt down on the ground with a plop, quickly bowed his head, and said, "Congratulations, Mr. Gu, congratulations, Mr. Gu, you won the number one prize!"

"Really? Champion!"

Gu Dingchen was surprised and overjoyed.

Immediately afterwards, his face suddenly turned pale, and he fell to the ground.

Lun Wenxu and Xie Qian hurriedly supported him.

Everyone was startled and surrounded them one after another.

The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Hurry up and help Mr. Zhuangyuan to sit down. This is a happy mood. Don't panic. I need a medicine here. Just take a pill."

as predicted.

A pill the size of a broad bean entered his stomach, and it didn't take long for Gu Dingchen to recover.

"Thank you very much."

Gu Dingchen hurriedly clasped his fists in thanks.

You know, after high school, there are many people who go crazy because of happiness. Fortunately, the shopkeeper was prepared and rescued in time.

"It should be, it should be."

The shopkeeper nodded hastily. Zhuangyuan Lang came from his restaurant, and he was also deeply impressed by the incomparable brilliance. How can he see the madness?

After another half a cup of tea, Gu Dingchen was completely fine.

A group of guards had just dressed him in red and daisy, helped him onto the tall horse, beat gongs and drums, and paraded away through the streets.

The spring breeze is the first horseshoe disease, and you can see all the flowers in the capital in one day!

The servants clear the way, and the pedestrians avoid it. Life is so far, what more can a husband ask for?

This is the dream of countless readers!

In front of the Zhuangyuan building, he just calmed down.

But there was another burst of beating of gongs and drums, and the crackling of firecrackers, all the way.

"Guangzhou Mansion Lun Wenxu, is Master Lun staying here with you?"

"Yes Yes Yes."

The shopkeeper was overjoyed and nodded his head like pounding garlic.

If both the champion and the second place come from his restaurant, it would be a really festive event.

The guard said loudly: "Report! Guangzhou Fulun Wenxu High School is No. 2 in Division A, second place in the ranking."

The shopkeeper hurriedly put a bag of silver on the ground, and asked the shop assistant to set off firecrackers to celebrate, and then hurriedly asked Lun Wenxu to come down and parade through the street.

in the room.

Lun Wenxu showed a very happy expression, while Xie Qian sat there silently.

Lun Wenxu said: "Brother Xie, don't worry, now I am more and more sure that what that magic stick said seems to be true."

"This No.3 Tanhualang is definitely Brother Xie's."

After Lun Wenxu's voice fell, the shopkeeper smiled all over his face, and hurriedly answered: "Yes, that's right. Those who will announce the good news later will definitely come again."

After finishing the words, the shopkeeper said with a smile on his face again: "Master No. [-], you, why don't you go to cross the horse and parade first."

Hearing this, Lun Wenxu nodded and walked downstairs.

After a long time, the person who announced the good news has not come.

Xie Qian finally couldn't sit still anymore!

He felt a little uneasy, and came to the place where the list was published alone. Now, the number of people here has gradually decreased.

Xie Qian walked step by step, looking at the imperial list not far away.

All of a sudden, he, who was always full of confidence, and who was always handsome in the forest, didn't come close to watch, but just stood there in a daze.

A few people passed by and commented: "This year is so strange, there is actually a number one scholar in the top three, and both of them are from the number one scholar building."

"This time, in the next three years, Zhuangyuan Building will make a lot of money again."

"That's right, the Zhuangyuan Building is really a treasured place of geomantic omen."

Xie Qian turned a deaf ear.

All of a sudden, his head was full of Weng's body, and only then did he realize that his Tanhualang had failed, and he was a little unsteady on his feet.

He once said with a smile that if he is accompanied by the number one oiran in the capital, it doesn't matter whether he gets the fame or not.

At that time, he was so free and easy.

It was only at this moment that he realized that this fame was indispensable to him, and it was his lifelong dream. If he didn't have it, it would be an unbearable burden for him!

if I get it I am lucky, but if not, it is fate!

With an extremely disappointed mood, Xie Qian collected himself, gritted his teeth, and walked towards the imperial list step by step.

There is no name on the top list.

His name is not on the examination list.

On the list of C subjects, No. 1 from the bottom!

They are all Jinshi if they don't pass the palace examination, but this is the last one in C, he can't accept it!

Among this group of Jinshi, he will obviously be the least valued in the imperial court in the future, and he will be the least valued by the man who dominates the world!

Xie Qian's eyes couldn't help but darken.

"It's over, it's over."

Xie Qian turned around as if sleepwalking, muttering to himself constantly.

At this moment, he just realized that he actually takes it so seriously!

Xie Qian returned to the restaurant, lonely and speechless.

At this time, the shopkeeper had already changed from his previous enthusiasm and looked at Xie Qian with an almost unfamiliar look.

The world is warm and cold, that's all.

No wonder the shopkeeper is snobby, most people are like that!

However, Xie Qian didn't seem to see them at all, and was about to go upstairs on his feet.

The shopkeeper suddenly shouted: "Thank you, thank you young master."

Only then did Xie Qian turn around slowly, looking at the shopkeeper with dull eyes, and asked, "What's the matter?"

The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment, but still said: "Master Xie, just now your old man sent someone to send a message, saying that he told you...to move to live in the temple."

"understood."

Xie Qian sighed, smiled wryly and said, "If you don't get a good ranking, you're an outcast from your family. I've known this for a long time. I'll move tomorrow."

After saying that, Xie Qian burst into laughter, and walked upstairs step by step.

Chapter 1 How much is this spring night worth?

The moonlight is like flowing water, tilting quietly.

Xie Qian still sat blankly on the chair, watching silently, his figure hanging from the beam was reflected on the water.

A gust of wind blew, causing ripples on the water.

As the lights flickered, Xie Qian seemed to see a scene: Xie Qian in his youth was hanging his head from the beam, reciting classics in his mouth.

In front of him is a copy of "University".

He was so exhausted, although he was still reading in silence, his eyelids had slowly closed.

As soon as his head hung down, his hair was being pulled wherever he hung from the beam.

He woke up again!

At this time, his mother's gentle voice came from outside the door: "It's already midnight, let the child sleep."

His father sternly said: "No, if you don't recite this chapter today, you won't be able to sleep!"

Immediately afterwards, there was a long sigh from the mother.

Xie Qian's eyes were filled with grievance and tears.

At this moment, Xie Qian also slowly leaned his body back, his eyes were slightly closed, and two lines of tears flowed silently.

Suddenly, he felt a chill on his face.

There seemed to be drops of water on his cheeks, and he opened his eyes suddenly.

On the gently swaying water, beside the full moon, there appeared an unusually clear and beautiful face, with two bright eyebrows and smart eyes, looking at him with a smile.

Xie Qian seemed to be in a dream, sitting there blankly, looking at the beauty in front of him.

She turned out to be Liu Rushi!

Liu Rushi sat opposite him.

She was wearing a small dark red hat and a moon-white su brocade gown. She was dressed like a boy, as if she was a pretty boy, with only two smiling eyes looking at Xie Qian.

Xie Qian's eyes began to shine with luster and brightness.

His free and easy character suddenly surged out, and he said: "I am Zhuang Zhou in the daytime, and I am the butterfly at night. I don't know whether the butterfly turned into Zhuangzi, or Zhuang Zhou dreamed of the butterfly."

Liu Rushi smiled and said, "There is a moon in the sky, and there is also a moon in the water. I don't know whether the moon in the water is in the sky, or the moon in the sky is in the water."

"Wonderful! Wonderful!"

Xie Qian clapped his hands and applauded.

He stood up suddenly, but tripped over the rope above his head.

Liu Rushi chuckled, then walked over.Untied the rope for him.
