After binding the loving mother system, I was so bad

"The champion is Su Xuanming!"

The person who brought the good news had his hair messed up due to being squeezed, but he still ran to Fuquan Teahouse with a happy face.

Su Xuanming breathed a sigh of relief. This time, he made the right bet!

"Fuman, you are really my little lucky star."

Because the results of the provincial examination and the metropolitan examination are announced at the same time, people pay more attention to the metropolitan examination than to the provincial examination.

Therefore, the fact that Su Xuanming was the top scholar was soon overshadowed by other things except the Fuquan Teahouse.

The owner of Fuquan Teahouse was overjoyed and gave a plate of dim sum to all the guests on the spot.

"Congratulations to Su Dalang, congratulations to Su Dalang."

Fuman was also very happy for Su Xuanming: "Master, you are really amazing. This is the champion of Kyoto!"

The person who was just saying sourly that he was blessed to the end of his life now wished he could bury his head in the ground.

Isn't this a slap in the face too fast? !

But there are still some people who don’t believe that Su Xuanming’s progress is so great!

How many people have gone from being a scholar to becoming a juren, but have wasted half their lives and still failed. Why was Su Xuanming so successful?

After the results of the provincial examination are announced, the answer sheets will be posted to show fairness.

At this time, the list was full of people, including students and bookstore owners.

"Let me see what Jie Yuanshu's answer sheet says!"

"Su Xuanming's handwriting is quite good. It's obvious that he has put in a lot of hard work."

"The paper is neat, with no mistakes or omissions, and no erasures."

"But this content is not quite right, right? I clearly remember that the Analects of Confucius did not say this. Did I remember it wrong?" Some candidates were puzzled.

"You are not mistaken!" In order to prove his words, someone took out "The Analects of Confucius".

"Didn't our imperial examination say that we had to answer questions within the prescribed range? Could it be that the rules have changed and I didn't know about it?"

"no!"

"It's not fair! I remember someone gave a very good answer last time, but he didn't win because he strayed from the question range. Why should Su Xuanming win this time when it's his turn?"

An undercurrent is surging among the students in Kyoto.

According to regulations, on the day of the announcement of the results, all successful candidates had to wait respectfully in front of the Imperial College for the examiner to come out and pay their respects to the teacher.

Wine and food would also be prepared in the Imperial Examination Hall for everyone to drink together.

This banquet is also called the Deer Singing Banquet. It originated in the previous dynasty and continued to the Great Zhou Dynasty. Because the Deer Singing chapter in the "Book of Songs" says, "Deer are calling, eating wild apples," it is called the Deer Singing Banquet.

After Su Xuanming received the news that he had passed the imperial examination, he went home, changed his clothes, and attended a banquet with other successful students from Baichuan Academy.

There were forty students from Baichuan Academy who took the exam this time, and all of them passed!

However, the results this time were not as impressive as in the county examination. There was only one top scorer, Su Xueming, in the top ten, and only five in the top 100. Most of them were in the middle and back half, and there was one at the tail end.

Master Liu was very satisfied with the results. After all, the starting point was different. Although the students of Baichuan Academy had the guidance of Shan Shang, their foundation was not as solid as that of the students of Taixue.

As everyone was preparing to leave, Master Liu repeatedly reminded them: "After this exam, you can't sit back and relax! There will be another retest next year. If you fail, you will have to start all over again!! So don't act too arrogantly at the banquet."

Master Liu himself was a very arrogant person and had suffered a lot. He was also afraid that his students would learn from him.

"Yes, Master!"

"Don't worry, Master Liu, we will behave ourselves and never show up."

If they don't set off now, it will be too late. Under the worried gaze of Master Liu, the students came to the Imperial Examination Hall together.

Who would have thought that there were three rows of students sitting in front of the Imperial Examination Hall. They had solemn expressions and sat cross-legged in front of the hall. In front of them was their teacher with a grim look on his face, and all around them were the sounds of chattering.

"What are they doing? It doesn't seem like they are having a party, but rather complaining about their grievances."

The new students were confused about the situation and asked others.

"It's just to complain!"

"Alas, this happens every year. If one fails the exam because of lack of ability, they will say that there is cheating in the imperial examination. How can there be so many cheating cases? Moreover, this time it is an imperial examination, which reflects the great grace of the emperor. Who dares to cheat in this matter?"

"That's right. They even made trouble here at the Imperial Examination Hall. They disturbed our Luming Feast for no reason."

The students who arrived early glanced at them and asked, "Have you seen the answer sheet of this year's champion Su Xuanming?"

"I've read it. It's indeed better than mine."

“But what he said is different from the Analects.”

The student who asked the question finally realized: "Are they protesting against Su Xuanming?!"

"Yes, that's right! The one leading the group is the famous lunatic Zhang Jingzhi."

The student clapped his hands fiercely: "I know him! During the last provincial examination, he angrily denounced local officials for encroaching on farmland. Not only did he fail the examination, he was also banned from taking the examination for three years!"

"Yes, it was him. After seeing Su Xuanming's test paper this time, he was dissatisfied. He felt that since both of them did not abide by the imperial examination rules, why should Zhang Jingzhi be banned from taking the exam for three years, while Su Xuanming was the top scorer in this session?

"What about the others?"

"Some are students who failed the college entrance exam, and some are people with a sense of justice."

"Stop talking, Su Xuanming and the group from Baichuan Academy are here."

Seeing Su Xuanming coming, the crowd stopped talking and looked at Su Xuanming and other students from Baichuan Academy with strange eyes.

The leader Zhang Jingzhi also glanced at Su Xuanming indifferently, then continued to sit cross-legged respectfully in his place, holding a petition in his hand.

"Who is crying out for justice?" Seeing that the students refused to leave, the chief examiner Huang Qi had to step forward.

He was actually mentally prepared for today's situation.

The Emperor and Grand Tutor Tong were fighting in the court, and in the end it was he, the chief examiner, who had to clean up the mess?

Zhang Jingzhi was neither humble nor arrogant, but his voice could be heard by everyone present: "Student Zhang Jingzhi, I am suing Su Xuanming, the champion of this provincial examination, for not answering the questions according to the rules, but still getting the title of champion. His position is not legitimate!"

Hiss!

There were gasps all around. Zhang Jingzhi was a very courageous man, and he lived up to his nickname, Crazy Student.

How could this be a complaint against Su Xuanming? It was clearly pointing fingers at the examiner Huang Qi, saying that you are partial and corrupt, and that you are unfair.

Su Xuanming turned his head to look at Zhang Jingzhi, who was staring at Huangqi with burning eyes.

Seeing that Huang Qi had not spoken, Zhang Jingzhi pressed on: "The emperor entrusted you with the important task of selecting talents for the country, which shows how much he values ​​you. Please give an explanation to all the students in the world!"

The other students also said in unison: "Master Huang, please give an explanation to all the students in the world!"

"We follow the rules and do things honestly according to the laws of the country. Others, however, can act recklessly based on their family background!"

"Yes, this is unfair! If Su Xuanming is the champion this time, why can't the students who failed in previous years be the champion?!"
