Being able to eat is also a sign of youth.

People like them, their taste buds and appetite have also grown old. No matter how good the food is, they lack interest. The daily porridge and pickles are enough. When the people next to them heard Chen Sheng's words, they looked over, sighed and frowned.

"Where are the candidates here..." he said. Isn't it a bit bad to eat and drink like this at this time?

Chen Sheng smiled again and said, "You are the young man who can eat." It seems to be repeated from the previous words, but the meaning is different.

I can’t think so much on such occasions. I eat as much as I want, and I’m afraid of the young. I’m not a passion that the elderly envied. The man smiled and stopped saying anything, picked up the wine glass and met Chen Sheng, and said, “Secretary Chen, it seems that many handsome talents can shine this time.”

The six arts of gentlemen are different from those of the previous imperial examinations. Especially in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, they are often talented. People with this talent are often a bit unruly and unique. In this way, there is nothing wrong with this young man who eats and drinks, and maybe he is a genius.

Chen Sheng smiled and said, "It doesn't matter whether it's glorious or not. It's just that it's not appropriate to accompany the prince to study."

The reason for this gentleman's attempt was to take the imperial examination of Xiliang. However, if the prince of Xiliang really wanted to make the prince of Xiliang stand out in the gentleman's attempt, all the students of the Great Zhou were compared, so that they would not look good in terms of face.

"I am a big Zhou, full of talents, so the prime minister doesn't need to worry." The man said, and the two of them were talking here, and a cheer sounded in the hall. It turned out that Song Yuan personally walked down to joke with the candidates, and was full of kindness and enthusiasm, and the atmosphere in the hall was mobilized again.

"Mr. Song is so majestic." The man whispered and looked at Chen Sheng... This is a dignified prime minister. Although he was suppressed by Wang Lieyang, he was still a minister who was in charge of his life to the outside world. Song Yuan was really just a few words of politeness and ignored him and threw him on the side table. He seemed to be the only one in charge.

Chen Sheng said, "Mr. Song has always been majestic." He smiled and stopped talking and raised his glass to drink.

Xue Qing raised his wine glass and looked over there with a smile, raised his sleeves and hung it down just right to block half of her face. Her eyes looked at the stage... Who was looking at her just now?

She was not surprised that someone looked at her, so she did not deliberately hide herself, and she couldn't hide it. She was just curious that at this time, who was sitting on the stage except Mr. Qingxia? Or a few people? Will they find an opportunity to see her? Or they have been hiding behind her and waiting for her to pass the gentleman's test and leave without taking away a cloud... I was thinking a lot, but my eyes kept looking in the hall. Seeing that Song and Yuan had finished talking with the candidates, the students put down their glasses.

"Don't be so nervous... Come on, try these dishes." Song Yuan pointed to several cases and said, "This is made by famous chefs invited from all over the country. It is the same level as the banquets given by the top scholars and Jinshi after the palace examination. Everyone has a good meal and drink. When they say that, they have also eaten and eaten at the Jinshi banquet. This is the only thing that many people cannot compare with."

All the students laughed. Song Yuan’s attitude was really not like a red-robed official. Of course, no one really didn’t regard him as a red-robed official, so they all sat down, talked and laughed, either exaggeratedly or silly, picked up chopsticks to eat vegetables. The atmosphere in the hall became lively and relaxed...

Xue Qing also tasted elegantly, while Zhang Shuangtong on the other side was swallowing her voraciously.

Pang An couldn't help but remind Swen: "Look at Young Master Qingzi..."

It would be fine if you didn't mention this. Zhang Shuangtong ate even harder and said with a little sadness: "I am really gentle, Sanshilang is a fake gentle."

Although Pang An couldn't understand, he laughed and found it funny. It was probably because the atmosphere here was better. Song Yuan, who was about to sit down, suddenly looked over, reached out and pointed, "Yes, just like that young master, he ate meat and drank wine in big mouthfuls."

The eyes in the hall suddenly gathered. Zhang Shuangtong was tearing a goose leg with both hands. Suddenly, his eyes gathered on his body and couldn't help but froze in place. Pang An shrank his head and said nothing, but subconsciously moved several cases forward, trying to stay away from Zhang Shuangtong. Liu Chunyang also looked like drinking and raised his hand to cover his face.

It was only a moment of stiffness. The next moment, Zhang Shuangtong tore off the goose legs and took a big bite to his mouth. He then picked up the wine glass and slapped it all. He raised the empty wine glass and said loudly: "We should eat meat and drink wine in big mouthfuls." His voice was clear and high, with a gentle tone, and it sounded very nice to spread in the hall.

Song Yuan laughed loudly and tugged his hands, and the students all laughed. Many people also tear their meat and raised their wine glasses like Zhang Shuangtong.

"Is this what is often said in books to be crazy and unruly?"

"Chu Kuangren..."

"...Is the kind that the sage Confucius also respected?"

"...It turns out that scholars don't have to be gentle."

Even the candidates from AIA were also excited to talk and then tear their meat and drink. The hall was noisy and bold for a while, and everyone was happy, so they no longer paid attention to Zhang Shuangtong.

Zhang Shuangtong sat down, Xue Qing, who was beside him, gave him a thumbs up and smiled, saying, "This is really gentle."

Zhang Shuangtong glared at her and reached out to tear the goose meat again. Xue Qing looked at her with a smile. From the corner of her eyes, she noticed her vision. Song Yuan, who was standing in front of the stage, had a kind and pleasant smile on her face. Her vision slipped past Zhang Shuangtong, and it seemed to fall on Xue Qing unintentionally. Xue Qing suddenly looked up and the two of them collide with her eyes... Xue Qing raised the wine glass in her hand a little restrainedly. Song Yuan’s smile on her face became stronger, and she raised her hand.

"Drink and drink." He nodded with satisfaction and said loudly, his eyes swept over and looked at the students in the hall sitting down, and whispered to the officials beside him.

The students in the hall also drank and chatted with the candidates on both sides. The musicians on both sides started playing again, with the sound of silk and bamboo speaking and laughing mixed together.

Zhang Shuangtong ate half of the goose in one breath before breathing out, saying, "I can finally have a good meal." He was about to continue to have a feast, but a civil servant stood up to announce the end of tonight's banquet.

"Today's students have a banquet, and we should concentrate on preparing for the exam tomorrow to achieve good results."

The examiners also stood up, either with a graceful look or a smile, and said, "We are waiting for you all."

The students in the hall hurriedly put down their wine glasses and chopsticks and stood up. Zhang Shuangtong and Xue Qing were no exception. They all bowed to the examiners on the stage, and the civil servants were waiting for guidance. The students in the hall walked out of the hall in order.

Zhang Shuangtong looked at the food in front of him that was almost unmoved, sighed and said, "It's over..."

Xue Qing also said, "Yes, this is over." No accident happened, and no one contacted her, but there was no accident. After all, the safest thing is to be unobtrusive... And she believed that the person who wanted to see her had already seen her. As for herself, she didn't want to see them. It would be better if she didn't see her... The candidate in front had already walked out, Xue Qing patted Zhang Shuangtong and smiled and said, "Let's go."

The people from Chang'an Mansion followed the students out of the hall. The lights were still bright on the corridor outside the hall, and the candidates gathered out in an orderly manner, but they were less restrained and more relaxed than when they came in, and they were more chatting and joked, and there was a little noisy on the corridor.

Zhang Shuangtong shook her sleeves and said, "We are going back and have a big meal...I'll treat you." She looked back at Xue Qing, "Sanci Lang, you don't have to go, you're full."

Xue Qing laughed, and suddenly a shout came from behind him.

"Candidates from Chang'an Mansion, you have lost your stuff."

Lost something? Xue Qing and others looked back and saw the lights behind them were bright and dazzling.

"What are you throwing away?" Lin Xiucai and several older people asked hurriedly. While turning around and stride against the crowd, the candidates behind him made concessions. The candidates who were going against the Chang'an Mansion were very conspicuous in the crowd.

But no sound came out, and no one could see the greetings from the government office. There were only the solemn imperial guards with a wooden expression, and the candidates who had just walked out of the hall and stood on the steps. These candidates were looking at them, with the white robes and treasure belts under the lamp dazzling.
