Strictly speaking, there is a certain conflict between paying tribute to select officials and participating in the examination. Otherwise, the emperor would not have waited for the results of Zhang Zhou's examination before deciding whether Zhang Zhou would enter the court by paying tribute.

"Brother Lin, why didn't you go to Gongyuan?" Zhang Zhou asked.

Lin Ting said: "It's all about paying tribute. If you really win, someone will come to report it. We agreed early in the morning to wait here today. By the way, we can talk about academic matters."

"Yeah." Zhang Zhou nodded.

I was thinking in my heart, you are not just talking about me and the project here, and I happened to bump into you, right?

Lin Yi listened to Zhang Zhou's nonsense for a long time, but even though she didn't answer the question that everyone present was most concerned about, she couldn't help but said: "What about the problem?"

"Sister, you..."

Lin Ting wanted to teach his sister a lesson, but found that everyone around him looked at her more eagerly than his sister.

Lin Yi just asked about the topic that everyone wanted to ask.

As the hottest hot spot in the capital recently, didn't they talk about it for a long time just now?

Now that we finally have first-hand news, who doesn’t want to ask clearly?

Zhang Zhoudao: "Early this morning, many candidates who participated in the examination were brought into the palace. In the morning, there were court officials in front of the Meridian Gate. Many people who had visited Scholar Cheng after October last year also gave gifts.

, he was convicted of seeking advancement despite his predestined relationship, and all the officials in the gift-giving department were deposed as local officials."

"Scholar Cheng ordered Zhishi to live in Beijing leisurely. Some people, such as Tang Yin, who visited Cheng's house but did not send gifts, will not be held accountable... I have never been there, and this case has nothing to do with me.

Stand aside and listen."

"That's it?" Lin Ting wondered.

In his opinion, this result seemed to be different from the scholars' expectations.

Zhang Zhou smiled and added: "Oh, there are a few people who not only visited and gave gifts, but also talked about the vend project and publicized it a lot afterwards, but refused to admit it after being accused by people from the Cheng family. Maybe

It will be more unlucky, and even the reputation of the candidate will be lost. As for whether there are other punishments, I don't know."

"ah!?"

The scholars present were all candidates waiting for the results together. They heard that someone had been dismissed because of discussing this case. Although there were other prerequisites, it was a great shock to them.

Lin Ting sighed: "No wonder some people are trying to make a fuss out of unsubstantiated facts. It turns out that there are young people fanning the flames behind the scenes. They think that these people are destined to be unable to make progress, but they slander others for no reason. It is really unethical to be a scholar."

Feng, this meritorious deed is unjust."

People around him didn't expect Lin Ting to be so disgusted with those people.

They are still thinking, could it be that because Zhang Zhou was present, you said this deliberately in order to please him and win over him?

Zhang Zhou said: "His Majesty also ordered that the results of this case be announced together with the examination list. You will probably know the details in a moment."

Just as he was talking, someone outside shouted: "Brother Li Zhan, come down quickly. You have been selected as a tribute. You are twenty-sixth on the gold list. Everyone is here to announce the good news!"

Originally we were still talking about vendetta.

At this time, everyone seemed to have come back to their senses.

Today is the day when the exam results are released. I don’t care about the big things that will determine the fate of everyone. I don’t care what the topic is. It should be ignored even if it doesn’t concern me.

"congratulations!"

Everyone immediately began to come over to congratulate Lin Ting.
Chapter completed!
