Shen Zhicheng suddenly stopped Shen Zhiyu and asked about it.
Shen Zhiyu was confused and couldn't answer for a while.
He was so excited just now. He saw his eldest brother's name on the list and hurried back.
Ruan Ruan said with a smile, "No, Shen Shaocheng's name is not on the list. I saw it clearly."
"Really? Sister." Shen Zhicheng was a little doubtful.
Shen Zhiyuan's reaction was indifferent, as if he had guessed the answer.
"Really, there are the names of Big Brother's three good friends on the list, but Shen Shaosheng's name is not there. Hehehehe..."
Ruan Ruan smiled mischievously.
"I seemed to have seen grandpa and the others just now..."
Shen Zhicheng ignored his sister's last words and said with a smile:
"Great, I knew that Shen Shaosheng had no real ability. He has been stupid since he was a child... I heard someone say that he often finds people to write articles. "Buying poems written by others is probably true."
"Sister, who are my three friends?" Shen Zhiyuan asked.
"Brother Yu ranks third, Brother Qin ranks ninth, and Brother Gao ranks fifteen..." Ruan Ruan answered one by one.
"Sister, why do you remember everything?" Shen Zhicheng admired her little brain, but the third brother only saw the name of the eldest brother.
"Hehehe...because I'm smart." Ruan Ruan was proud. After taking the Marrow Cleansing Pill and starting to practice, both his five senses and his IQ had improved five times.
"Go back!" After Shen Zhiyuan learned the news he wanted, he just wanted to go home and leave this place of right and wrong.
Moreover, three of his good friends also passed the examination, which is a great thing.
... Cheng Yurong
of the General's Mansion
, along with Shen Zhiqing and Shen Zhijie, stood at the door waiting for the servants to report the news, and for the officials to report the good news.
As soon as Madam Cheng and the Cheng family arrived at the General's Mansion, two young servants arrived shortly after.
"Madam, madam, the eldest son has passed the exam, Jieyuan——"
This news has spread throughout half of the capital in the blink of an eye.
"Reward them with silver coins... Reward them with coins quickly. Are the firecrackers ready? There are also copper coins and candies..."
When Cheng Yurong heard the word "jieyuan", she swayed with excitement and was held up by Shen Zhiqing to keep her from falling.
"Mom, don't be excited. In the future, my eldest brother will give you the top prize in the exam, and the third brother will give you the top prize in martial arts." Shen Zhiqing comforted her.
"Mom, you may be feeling a little uncomfortable after standing for too long. Take a candy and drink some water to ease it." Shen Zhijie took a candy and gave it to Cheng Yurong to eat, and then fed her half a cup of tea.
She smiled sheepishly.
"How old are you, and you are still not stable? The children will take care of you, and you are more like an adult than you."
Mrs. Cheng scolded her daughter.
"Mother..." Cheng Yurong walked over and gently leaned on Mrs. Cheng's shoulder.
"Don't cry, today is a big day."
"Well, don't cry."
Shen Zhiyu asked the groom to run as fast as possible and finally returned to the general's residence before official duties.
The four brothers and sisters got out of the car quickly and walked to the gate to look at the two officials not far away.
Two official servants rode on horses, beating gongs and drums, and shouted loudly: "The winner of this year's provincial examination is Mr. Shen Zhiyuan, the eldest son of the General's Mansion."
Behind them were hundreds of ordinary people.
As soon as he arrived at the General's Mansion, he was warmly welcomed by Cheng Yurong's family.
"Excuse me, you two officials. Please have tea and fruit."
"Madam, you're welcome. We are here to announce the good news. Who is Mr. Shen Zhiyuan?"
"I am, please excuse me." "Congratulations, Mr. Shen. You passed the exam and ranked first. Congratulations."
"Congratulations, Mr. Shen. I wish you a bright future and a bright future, and you will be ranked among the top three masters."
"Thank you. Please accept the reward and work hard all the way ." You guys." Shen Zhiyuan took two bags of broken silver from Shen Su and handed them to the two officials.
"It's not hard work, it's what we should do."
"You're welcome. I will take part in the imperial examination in the future, and I need you to report the good news again."
"Easy to say, Mr. Shen is rich in knowledge and talent. He will definitely pass the exam next year."
The two officers took the silver reward and hurriedly left on horseback. They had to go to other houses to report the good news.
Cheng Yurong asked Shen Zhiqing and his brothers to take copper coins and candies and distribute them to the people.
Shen Zhiyu went to light a few strings of firecrackers not far away, and they crackled instantly.
Suddenly, the scene was noisy and chaotic, but also very lively.
Cheng Yurong hugged Ruan Ruan and watched the people happily picking up copper coins and the children picking up candies to eat.
The only regret is that my husband has gone to attend morning court.
Ruan Ruan was eating candy and watching the lively scene.
After scattering five boxes of copper coins and three boxes of candies, Cheng Yurong took the children in.
Mrs. Cheng took the Cheng family in early to rest.
The common people were the happiest. Everyone picked up three or five copper coins.
In the entire capital, the General's Mansion is the most generous, tolerant and kind to the people.
...
There were not many people left in the square in front of the gate of Gongyuan.
Shen Zhongsheng and Lao Yang looked at the names on the dragon and tiger list and searched three times, but they could not find Shen Shaosheng's name. They were so anxious that they went to the officials to find the answer.
"If you continue to mess around, I will ask the officers to drive you away."
"You must explain clearly, why is my grandson's name not on the dragon and tiger list? My grandson's name is Shen Shaosheng. He should be Jieyuan, or Yayuan no matter what."
Shen Zhongsheng rushed forward and tugged at the official's collar, as if the official had stolen Shen Shaosheng's rank.
"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you, let's go." The three officials left quickly with the servants.
Shen Zhongsheng was in his early sixties. He couldn't keep up with them and almost fell down.
Old Yang held him in tears.
"What should I do, Master? Why is there no good grandson's name on the Dragon Tiger List? Brother Sheng is obviously so good at studying, so Jieyuan should be his."
"I don't know, what is going on? Is someone targeting Brother Sheng? , took his place away?"
Shen Zhongsheng's eyes were bloodshot. He had been waiting for Shen Shaosheng to pass the exam. It would be fine if he didn't win the exam, as long as he could pass the exam.
"Master, this must be the case. Who stole Brother Sheng's ranking? Master, is it Shen Zhiyuan? I think Xie Yuan wrote his name."
Old Yang changed his face to a sinister face, and made an inverted triangle . The eyes revealed a sinister light.
Two passers-by couldn't stand this couple, so they walked over and explained:
"The rankings on the Dragon and Tiger List are absolutely true, and there will never be any problems. If you suspect that your grandson's ranking has been taken away, you can bring evidence." "
If there is no evidence, please don't question the authenticity of the Dragon Tiger List, let alone Mr. Shen Zhiyuan's ranking. His efforts and talents are obvious to all.
We believe in Mr. Shen Zhiyuan's character. He is also your eldest grandson, Duke Shen. Please believe in him and bless him."
"..." Shen Zhongsheng was dumbfounded after hearing what the passers-by said. He didn't come back to his senses until they had left for a long time.
"Jie Yuan is Shen Zhiyuan, Brother Sheng... there is nothing..."
"Master -" Old Yang screamed and hugged Shen Zhongsheng, crying:
"Brother Sheng is the one who robbed Shen Zhiyuan, it must be Shen Zhiyuan who took it away His ranking must be like this... Master, let's go report to the official..."
