Chapter 11: The wind rises and sails, the sword points to the palace(1/2)

(Although it is all the aunts who make it to the list every Monday, but you have the right to vote if you fail. I firmly ask for votes and support!)

During the worship, Mrs. Chen cried with joy.

Although the county exam is just the first level of the boy exam and the easiest level. Passing the exam does not mean you have achieved fame and honor for students, there has been a saying since ancient times: Everything is difficult at the beginning.

Chen Sanlang was able to overcome this hurdle, which means that he was no longer in awesome. From then on, everything was possible. He had talent and intelligence since childhood. He had been suffering from the troubles of the awesome situation before, so he wasted so many years.

Now the stubborn disease is cleared, and the sea is vast and the sky is vast.

The son will have a future, and Chen Wang was very happy and kept muttering "The ancestors have spirits"!

The next morning, Chen Sanlang rushed to the martial arts hall and met Xu Jun when he entered the door.

"Hey, I thought you weren't here."

Xu Jun's bright eyes lit up.

Chen Sanlang Zhenzhen said: "How can you not come after you have not learned kung fu?"

Xu Junying smiled: "Come on, but don't say the wrong thing again."

This smile has a kind of cunning beauty and charming charm.

When Chen Sanlang saw it, his heart was beating inexplicably and he couldn't control it. It was a disaster for beauty. No wonder Cao Guitang and Ma Jintai were unwilling to give up.

Xu Jun asked again: "How was your exam?"

"After passing the first level, there are two more levels behind."

"Oh, that's good. You practice first, I'll go buy vegetables."

Chen Sanlang began to stance.

After a while, Xu Nianniang, wearing a blue shirt, walked out and did not go out to drink as soon as possible. She stood in front of Chen Sanlang and looked up and down.

Chen Sanlang was so nervous that he saw him that he said, "Good morning, owner."

Xu Nianniang shook her head: "I'm not good at all."

Chen Sanlang was stunned: He didn't speak according to the routine at all.

"But if you go buy ten kilograms of wine, I'll probably get better."

Chen Sanlang asked carefully: "Have the owner spent all his money on wine again?"

Xu Nianniang glared: "What does it mean to be exhausted again?"

Chen Sanlang hurriedly ran out and went to the tavern to get ten kilograms of wine.

Xu Nianniang took the wine and smiled: "The son can teach you."

He took the wine and went out.

Is this over?

Chen Sanlang felt like he was deceived. Didn’t he say “the child can teach”? Are you teaching some peerless martial arts? You are too stingy, it’s better for your daughter…

But Xu Nianniang was carrying wine, not going to the tavern, but leaving the city, taking big steps, and walking up a green mountain outside the city. People stood on the top of the peak, looked up at the distance, and then sat down on the spot and drank happily.

The amount of ten kilograms of wine was finished in a moment like a whale drinking water. His stomach was slightly protruding. Xu Nianniang suddenly stood up, closed her belly, opened her mouth and squirted. The sky was filled with wine and rain, and he said with a sigh: "Another year of spring and autumn, I will never see my face again. It's been sixteen years, sixteen years."

As he said that, he closed his eyes and two lines of clear tears slowly flowed down.

"This love can be remembered, but it was already lost at that time... Hey, I didn't expect that the person who knew me was actually a scholar without any power..."

murmured, turning around and going down the mountain.

Behind him, where the wine and rain fell, a piece of green grass turned yellow at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then withered to death.

"My heart is dead, I hate spring buds."

...

Three days later, the county test results were released, and Uncle Hua, who was watching the list, came back with a smile on his face. Chen Sanlang's name was on the list, but unfortunately he had not won the first place in the case.

The so-called case leader is the first in the county examination.

The first part is very heavy. If you get it, it is equivalent to being the county magistrate's admission student. Later, the government and the government will try it smoothly. As long as you don't commit any taboos, you can pass the test smoothly.

It can be said that if you win the county test, you will almost get a student's reputation.

Under the head of the case, there is actually no ranking. No matter which place it is, the government examination must work hard again. As long as you pass the government examination again, you can get the title of "childhood". Although it is not considered a fame, it is a little better than a naked white body.

According to the customary arrangement, the government examination meeting will be held one month later, and the examination room will be located in the examination courtyard of Nanyang Prefecture.

The preparation time for one month is very sufficient. At that time, you only need to arrive at Nanyang Prefecture three days in advance.

The news that Chen Sanlang passed the county exam was like the spring breeze blew across Jingxian and soon spread.

This achievement is nothing, but it only happened to Chen Sanlang, which adds topicality and makes people talk about it with relish.

When the news reached the Liu family, Mrs. Liu felt a little uneasy and asked Matchmaker Wu to come over to discuss:

"Wu Po Zi, if you go to Chen's house for another trip, I will say that my bet fee will be reduced by 30 more times. I don't believe it, he will not agree."

"OK."

Matchmaker Wu rushed to the Chen family happily, and after an hour, he came back with a bitter face and reported: "Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Chen Wang said that Chen Sanlang should concentrate on preparing for the exam and set off for Nanyang Prefecture soon, so he cannot be distracted."

"What?"

Mrs. Liu slapped the table and said, "Damn it, I don't appreciate it after making any concessions. Do you really think that no one wants my Meier? I just passed the county exam and my tail was raised to the sky. Let's see if you fail the palace exam, you will be disappointed and you will be in a very bad state!"

Matchmaker Wu stumbled and didn't say anything. He whispered in his heart: If it weren't for the greed before, why should he make concessions again and again now?

Jiang Caoqi and his wife came to the city after hearing the news and celebrated Sanlang.

During the meal, Jiang Caoqi drank wine and said with the alcohol: "Second sister, I said that Sanlang will have a promising future and will succeed. You had objected before, what's the point now?"

Chen Sanlang hurriedly said, "Brother-in-law, I've just passed the first level of the exam, it's still too early to succeed."

Jiang Caoqi smiled and said, "If you can pass the first level, there will naturally be no problem with the second level. You will be unstoppable all the way. Finally, you will get the top scorer back to see everyone, and you will see those dog eyes that look down on people."

Chen Sanlang was speechless: Could this second brother-in-law be drunk and talking nonsense? He thought the top scholar was a big guy and was within his reach?

Jiang Caoqi drank this wine so much that he had to stop.

Chen Sanlang pulled his second sister aside and said, "Second sister, you have to keep an eye on my brother-in-law. He is often drunk and it is easy to get into trouble."

Drinking makes people brave and makes people more confused. Once you have a little bit of alcohol, you will do some confused things.

The second sister sighed and replied quietly: "No! Alas, your brother-in-law has a strong heart and is difficult to express, so I understand how to drink to relieve my sorrow."

Chen Sanlang was silent.

Jiang Caoqi is a man with a rude and loyalty and can study, but he is helpless because of reality. He is depressed and unsuccessful in his heart.

Well, everyone has a chance, so it’s hard to force it.

In the evening, my second sister hired a car, helped the drunk Jiang Caoqi into the car and slept, waved goodbye, and left the city to go home.

Life is calm, reading, writing, raising swords, and stances - by the way, there is also practicing "The Finger of the Finger" and pointing the Sandalwood acupoint.

Since Xu Jun gave me a hint of advice, Chen Sanlang has confirmed that something originally illusory existed around him. However, he didn't ask anything, curious to kill the cat, and it's rare to be confused.

Practicing fingering is a hard work, and it is the same principle as writing. You cannot get the true meaning without thousands of times of training. There is no shortcut to take.

He thought, and simply spent money to ask a carpenter to imitate it, and made a human-shaped puppet, which was placed in the study room, and poked it for a while from time to time.

Life is compact and fulfilling, and it can be said that it is busy. Chen Sanlang wishes to cut a clone out and share the burden. A tense life can easily make people haggard, and he lost a few pounds, which is really thin.

At night, everything was silent, so I walked out of the study room and sat by the well and watched.

At this time, the mysterious red carp will definitely surface, swim around and swim happily.

Somehow, when Chen Sanlang saw it, he smiled knowingly and could relax his body and mind.

puff!

The red carp shook its tail and splashed water. It meant that it wanted Chen Sanlang to read it.

A fish that loves to listen to people and read...

So the sound of reading starts, one person reads, one fish listens, and a cool well is separated by a rippling waves, as if the sea at night has a different atmosphere.

Chen Sanlang suddenly remembered two lines of poetry: I was afraid that the flowers would fall asleep late at night, so I burned the candles to shine on the red makeup!

Appreciating flowers is a fool, reading for fish is also a fool?

Time flies, February has passed, and after a moment of calculation, there are only five days left before the palace examination is held.

Chen Sanlang decided to set off tomorrow and rushed to Nanyang Prefecture. There are two paths to choose from: water and drought. The dry road is long and the road is bumpy. It is quite hard, and it is far better to take a waterway.

There is a wharf outside the east gate of Jingxian County. Every day, ships carry people, enter the Jingjiang River, flow downstream, and then arrive at Nanyang Prefecture City.

This trip was a long trip for Chen Sanlang. He had never left the ground in Jingxian County after he grew up so old.

Chen Wangshi was quite worried and asked the housekeeper Hua to follow the young master. However, Chen Sanlang did not agree and insisted on walking alone.

Without it, the more people you travel with will be more expensive; and the cumbersome affairs at home are also inseparable from Uncle Hua.

"Don't worry, mom, I'll go to Nanyang Mansion and make an appointment with classmates early, so there will be no trouble."

This is the truth. In this year's boy exam, Mr. Yang's disciple, in addition to Chen Sanlang, also passed the county exam.
To be continued...
