Chapter 61 The Red Mansion
The content of the re-examination of the hospital examination is not as much as the first one, nor is it as difficult as the first one.This arrangement is mainly because if the two exams are too difficult, then it is very likely that the number of recruited scholars will be less than the prescribed number of admitted people. Therefore, in the two exams of the college exam, the first exam will be more difficult, and the second exam will be more difficult. easier.
Lin Huaiyu finished answering the questions early and fell asleep lying on the table.It was not until lunch was distributed at noon that he was woken up by the yamen servant.
After lunch, he was so bored that he had to sleep again.During the two days of the college exam, he slept for almost a day and a half.
The rankings will be released on the fifth day after the end of the college examination. These five days are very difficult for most candidates, but for Lin Huaiyu, it is no different from ordinary days.
In the past five days, he did not study hard at home as before, but drew pictures and practiced calligraphy very leisurely.
On the day when the results of the college examination were released, Madam Zhang and the others became anxious again, but this time they did not search for magpies at home like they did in the government examination.
During the government examination, the magpie did not show up to announce the good news until they all knew that Lin Huaiyu had passed the examination.Aunt Zhang and the others felt that the magpie was an unreliable bird of good news, and it was better to honestly wait for Butler Lin and the others to come back to notify them if they expected it to announce the good news.
Lin Steward and Liu Jinu still went to the gate of the Gongyuan early, anxiously waiting for the announcement of the list.At the beginning of the hour, the gate of the Gongyuan opened, and the servants appeared in front of everyone with yellow lists in their hands.
The hospital examination does not have make-up examinations like the government examination, so it will not delay the time for publishing the list like the government examination.
The yamen servants posted the list of unsuccessful candidates first.As soon as it was posted, many people howled and cried, some screamed, and some even went crazy.
Lin Steward and Liu Jinu saw a white-haired old man scream and passed out, and then never woke up again.
This kind of situation is not uncommon on the day when the list is released, but every time it happens, everyone feels uncomfortable.
After posting the list of unsuccessful candidates, the next post is the list of those who passed the exam.
At this time, three magpies flew to Lin's residence at once.
Lin Huaiyu was painting when suddenly he saw three magpies flying to his window sill.The magpie standing in the middle looks very familiar, like the magpie that announced the good news before.
The magpie in the middle raised its round head and called to Lin Huaiyu, while flapping its wings happily towards him.Then, it nagged the magpies on both sides.
The magpies standing on both sides of it were as big as it, and they all raised their heads and barked at Lin Huaiyu.
Lin Huaiyu put down the pen in his hand and looked curiously at the three magpies standing on the windowsill.
"Are these two your friends, or your family?"
The magpie in the middle barked at Lin Huaiyu again, as if saying that it was its friend.
"Are you bringing your friends and family to announce the good news to me?"
As soon as Lin Huaiyu finished speaking, the magpie in the middle fluttered its wings and flew to his shoulder, screaming into his ear again.Then, two other magpies also flew on his shoulders.
There were three magpies on her shoulders, Lin Huaiyu didn't dare to move for fear of scaring these little guys away.
The magpie on the right shoulder, that is, the magpie in the middle, gently pecked Lin Huaiyu's ear.
Lin Huaiyu suddenly understood what it meant, and raised his hand to gently touch its small head.
"I'll ask someone to prepare apples for you now."
Grandma Zhang was called to the study by Lin Huaiyu, and when she saw the three magpies on Lin Huaiyu's desk, she immediately exclaimed in surprise: "There are still three magpies!"
"Mommy, go get some snacks and an apple to entertain these three little guests."
Nanny Zhang said with a happy face, "Okay, okay, I'll go right away." After a while, she brought a plate of snacks and a plate of chopped apples.
Lin Huaiyu first brought the apples to the window sill, and then personally crushed the snacks into bits and pieces to entertain the three magpie guests.
The three magpies were not polite either, they lowered their heads and ate heartily.
"Master, it seems that you have won the test again this time!" Nanny Zhang said excitedly, "Master, you have passed the examination of Xiao Sanyuan."
"Let's wait for news from Liu Jinu." Although Lin Huaiyu said it calmly, his mood became agitated and tense.Although he said before that it doesn't matter whether he takes the exam or not, he will still be excited if he really passes the exam.
"Master, the three magpies have come to announce the good news to you. You must have passed the exam." Madam Zhang became more and more excited as she spoke, "Old slave, go to the door and wait for Liu Jinu."
Liu Jinu was already on his way back.While running, he yelled, "My young master won three yuan in a row!"
Butler Lin went to the yamen to congratulate Lin Ru.Lin Ruhai was also very excited when she learned that Lin Huaiyu had been admitted to the primary and secondary schools.Although he told Lin Huaiyu before that he didn't need to care about passing the Junior Sanyuan exam, but when his son really passed the junior Sanyuan exam, he, as a father, was naturally very proud and pleased.
Liu Jinu had already run back to Lin's house, and announced loudly that Lin Huaiyu had passed the exam.
Not long after Liu Jinu returned to Lin's house, the guards came to announce the good news, and they beat gongs and drums to announce the good news.First of all, congratulations to Lin Huaiyu for being the first case in the court examination, and then congratulations to Lin Huaiyu for being the junior three yuan.He also said that Lin Huaiyu is the smallest triplet in the history of Yangzhou, and the only one who has won three consecutively in the past 20 years.
After Zhang Momo and the others heard this, they were very proud.
Lin Huaiyu directly rewarded the Annunciation Officer with 20 taels of silver.The officer who announced the good news said some more auspicious words, and then left for the next house to announce the good news.
After rewarding the messengers for the good news, Lin Huaiyu rewarded Mammy Zhang and the others five taels of silver each.
Not long after, Lin Ruhai came back from the yamen, first praised Lin Huaiyu, and then told Madam Zhang and the others to prepare some delicious food for a good celebration today.
Of course, it was just a small celebration at home for the family, and no other people were invited to celebrate at home.Although it is very hard to come by in the junior high school entrance examination, after all, it is only a scholar who passed the examination, so there is no need to hold a big banquet to celebrate.
The Lin family celebrated lively and lively for a day, after all, the Lin family hadn't had a happy event for a long time.There was a happy event before, and it was seven years since Lin Huaiyu came to the Lin family.
After celebrating the entrance examination for primary and secondary schools, Lin Huaiyu and his family moved to Zhuangzi in the suburbs to escape the summer heat.If you don't move to Zhuangzi immediately, people will come to congratulate you every day during this period.
Although it is very hard to get a small triple in the exam, there is really nothing in the small triple, and people come to congratulate it every day. To be honest, it is quite embarrassing.If he passed the exam, he would accept it with peace of mind when people came to congratulate him every day.
Don't even think about the matter of taking the exam for the third-yuan exam.No, the fact that he wants to take the entrance examination for Zhongda-San-Yuan means that he has drifted away.Don't think about big-three-yuan or something.
Ye Wenfu and Song Xiuwen, who were far away in the capital, were naturally very happy when they learned that Lin Huaiyu had passed the junior high school entrance examination.
"Lin Ruhai's son is not bad, he actually passed the Junior Sanyuan exam at such a young age." Emperor Qinglong first received the news that Lin Huaiyu had passed the junior Sanyuan exam, and then he told Ye Wenfu and Song Xiuwen about it.
"Your Majesty, it's normal for Lin Ruhai's son to pass the exam. It would be strange if he failed the exam." Although Ye Wenfu's expression was very calm when he said this, his heart was already full of joy. "If he didn't pass the exam, I won't let him go."
Song Xiuwen nodded in agreement with Ye Wenfu's statement: "He was taught by the few of us. If he fails the exam of the Little Sanyuan, it will be a waste of our efforts." It's not difficult." At that time, he also passed the exam of Xiaosanyuan.
"Lin Ruhai's son is the youngest Sanyuan in Yangzhou's history, and he is also the only person in Yangzhou who has passed the Xiao Sanyuan exam in the past 20 years. This is better than his father." Emperor Qinglong said, "It is also the youngest Xiao Sanyuan in my dynasty. .”
Since the founding of the Daqing Dynasty, many little Sanyuans have been born, but before Lin Huaiyu, the youngest little Sanyuan was 17 years old. Now, the youngest little Sanyuan is refreshed by Lin Huaiyu.
"Your Majesty, little Sanyuan is nothing, if he can pass the university entrance exam again, then he will be considered capable."
Emperor Qinglong looked at Ye Wenfu amusedly: "You old guy won't let Lin Ruhai's son win six yuan in a row, will you?"
Ye Wenfu said very honestly: "I really think so."
Song Xiuwen followed up and said, "If it's Brother Huai, it's not impossible to even win six yuan."
"You really dare to think about it." Emperor Qinglong shook his head and said, "Since the founding of our dynasty, there has never been a person who scored six yuan in a row, even in the previous dynasty."
"Your Majesty, maybe Brother Huai will pass the six-yuan exam." Ye Wenfu is very confident in Lin Huaiyu, "This kid is smart and has a very good comprehension ability. As long as he studies hard, he is still very likely to pass the exam. "
"Brother Huai is smarter than the rest of us, maybe he can really pass the six-yuan exam."
Emperor Qinglong felt that it was impossible, "If Lin Ruhai's son wants to pass the six-yuan exam, unless some of you old fellows teach him personally."
When Ye Wenfu heard Emperor Qinglong's words, he immediately thought of an idea.
"Your Majesty, what do you think about letting Lin Ruhai's son study in the Imperial College?"
When Song Xiuwen heard what Ye Wenfu said, he immediately agreed, "Yes, you can let Lin Ruhai's son come to the Imperial College to study."
"Let Lin Ruhai's son study in the Imperial College?" Emperor Qinglong smiled angrily, "You two old bastards really know how to make up your mind."
"Your Majesty, I know that not everyone can go to study in the Imperial College, but I think that Lin Huaiyu's qualifications allow him to study in the Imperial College."
"Your Majesty, why don't you let Lin Huaiyu take the exam for the Imperial College. If he passes the exam, let him study in the Imperial College." Song Xiuwen said, "If he doesn't pass the exam, it means he is not qualified to study in the Imperial College."
"Your Majesty, I feel that if Lin Huaiyu can enter the Imperial College, he will probably pass the Liuyuan exam." Ye Wenfu changed the subject when he said this, "Your Majesty, under your control, there is a Liuyuan and No. [-] scholar, which means Letting you make Daqing's style of writing popular means that my style of writing in the Daqing Dynasty is not inferior to that of the previous dynasty."
The literary style of the previous dynasty prevailed, and many literary masters were born.And their Daqing Dynasty founded the country with "Wu", which is far inferior to the previous dynasty in terms of literature.
Song Xiuwen followed Ye Wenfu's words, and said persistently: "If Lin Huaiyu wins the Liuyuan test, then he will be the first Liuyuan and the number one scholar in our Daqing Dynasty, and he will also be the youngest Liuyuan and the number one scholar. It’s better than the previous dynasty.” The only six-dollar champion in the previous dynasty won six consecutive yuan at the age of 20.If Lin Huaiyu wins six prizes in a row, he will only be 16 years old by then, four years younger than the six-yuan champion in the previous dynasty. "Your Majesty, we in Daqing need a No. [-] champion with six yuan. If Lin Huaiyu really wins six yuan in a row, it will definitely bring out our Daqing's literary spirit, let more and more people in the world study, and inspire all the people in the world. student."
"Your Majesty, I feel that Lin Huaiyu has a chance to pass the Liuyuan exam, so please give Lin Huaiyu a chance to come to the Imperial College."
Emperor Qinglong was moved by Ye Wenfu and Song Xiuwen's words. If there is a six-yuan champion under his control, it will be very good for his reputation. At that time, the world will praise him as a wise and wise emperor, and he will be named Leave history.
"After I see Lin Ruhai's son's answer sheet, I will decide whether to give him a chance." Although it is very rare for Lin Huaiyu to pass the exam, it does not mean that he will definitely pass the exam.Also, whether Lin Huaiyu is really as smart as Ye Wenfu and the others said, he has to read Lin Huaiyu's answer sheet.
"Your Majesty, Lin Huaiyu will not disappoint you." Ye Wenfu said this very firmly.
"Really, then I'll look forward to it first."
Afterwards, Emperor Qinglong issued an order to Yangzhou to ask Yangzhou's academic administration to send the answer sheets of Lin Huaiyu's county examination, government examination, and college examination to the capital.
Jia Lian learned from Ye Wenfu that Lin Huaiyu had passed the Xiao Sanyuan exam, so she couldn't wait to tell Jiamu and the others.
Mother Jia and the others were also very excited when they learned that Lin Huaiyu was in the middle and junior high schools.
After Mrs. Wang heard the news, not only was she not happy at all, but she was very dissatisfied.She felt that if Jia Baoyu studied hard like Lin Huaiyu, he would definitely pass the junior three yuan exam, but the reality is that Lin Huaiyu passed the junior three yuan exam, and Jia Baoyu didn't study hard.
She always felt that her son Jia Baoyu was no worse than Lin Huaiyu, and even better qualified than Lin Huaiyu. After all, her son was born with jade.However, Lin Huaiyu is now taking the junior three yuan exam, leaving Jia Baoyu far away.Thinking of Lin Huaiyu's chances of winning the Jinshi examination three years later, Mrs. Wang's heart became more and more blocked.
Mrs. Wang asked the maid to call Jia Baoyu, and she wanted to talk to Baoyu well, and let Baoyu study hard, otherwise Baoyu would really not be able to catch up with Lin Huaiyu in the future, and would really be stepped on by Lin Huaiyu.
Jia Baoyu thought Mrs. Wang wanted to ask him for something, but she didn't expect to persuade him to study hard and get a good reputation.He got impatient after hearing two sentences, found an excuse and left.
Mrs. Wang was filled with anger and resentment when she saw her son's reticent appearance.Of course, the object of her anger and resentment is not her precious son, but Jia Mu.
She always felt that Mother Jia spoiled her son and made him uneducated.If she taught Jia Baoyu herself, maybe Jia Baoyu would be better at reading than Lin Huaiyu.
The girls in the Grand View Garden also learned that Lin Huaiyu had passed the junior high school entrance examination. They were all happy for Lin Huaiyu and admired Lin Huaiyu very much.
"Cousin Lin is really amazing. He won the third grade in the imperial examination for the first time." When Jia Tanchun thought of Lin Huaiyu, his heart beat violently, and his face turned slightly red and hot. "I won't see Cousin Lin until three years later. I don't know if Cousin Lin still knows me?"
