Chapter 39 The villain’s cannon fodder
The county examination is only the first step in the child examination. Only those who have passed the county examination are eligible to participate in the government examination. Although there are many people who applied for it, including people in their 50s and 60s, the actual admissions are only a few 40s or 50s.
You can imagine how big the competition is.
When it was time to release the results, Xu Mingyu relied on his martial arts body to force him to squeeze out a way out of the crowd. Several people followed and stretched their necks to look forward. Although they had confidence in Xu Mingcheng and Gu Wensong, they still started from the end.
Look up from the bottom.
When they got to the middle, they still didn't see the names of Xu Mingcheng and Gu Wensong. They felt happy and looked up again.
"I won, I won, Brother Song, you are fifth." Xu Mingyu said loudly, Xu Ming'an and Xu Mingcheng also thanked him, "Look at Ming Cheng's." Gu Wensong couldn't help but be happy, he even got fifth, Ming
Cheng's ranking will definitely be better, and he might be able to win the county title.
Xu Mingyu suppressed the excitement in his heart and looked up again. He was instantly excited and said, "First place, brother, you are the county chief case." Gu Wensong was also happy for him. After seeing the list, several people hurried back.
The other students who recognized them thanked them one after another, and couldn't help but hope in their hearts that they could be of help.
Because they agreed to get together at Baiweixiang after reading the list, they went straight to Baiweixiang.
The people left behind looked at each other with envy in their hearts, and began to look at the list again, hoping to find their own names.
For a time, some people were happy, some were sad, some cried with joy, and some left sadly.
When they returned, Baiweixiang was already bustling with activity. Lin Wan and the Gu family already knew their rankings. After all, Xu Mingyu had quite a voice, so the servant who had followed him came back first to inform them.
"Good boy, I knew you could do it." Mr. Gu said loudly, looking at the two of them with approval and pride.
In the past few years, he has watched Xu Mingcheng grow up. He knew that one day he would spread his wings and fly high, but he did not expect that he would come back as the county's top criminal from the very beginning.
Xu Mingcheng stood there and smiled. A voice came from behind him. Xu Mingcheng turned around and said in surprise, "Master, why are you here?"
Lin Wan stood up and said, "I invited your wife here." After knowing that they were all on the list, she asked someone to invite them, "Master, please, let's go to the box first."
After they all went upstairs, Lin Wan said, "Today, everything at Baiweixiang is 50% off, not just Baiweixiang, but all Lin family properties are 50% off."
Although she already knew that Xu Mingcheng would pass the exam successfully, she couldn't help but feel happy inside.
"Dong Lin's family is grand." Everyone cheered and wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to buy more things. After all, they could save half the money.
When Lin Wan returned to the box, Master Chen was talking to them. Master Chen was the wife of Xu Mingcheng and Gu Wensong.
"Good boy, I always knew you were outstanding, but I never thought you could get the county's first case." Mr. Chen couldn't hide the pride in his eyes, and said happily, "As soon as you get the county's first case, our Qingyun
The academy has followed Youguang. There has not been a county criminal case in our academy for many years, and you are the second one."
Although the county examination is only the first step to pass the examination as a scholar, it is not easy to get the county chief case, and he is still such a young county case chief. Xu Mingcheng is only nineteen years old, so he has a bright future.
Let's put it this way, a scholar is not necessarily a county case leader, but a county case leader must be a scholar.
Xu Mingcheng was not complacent. He stood up and bowed, "Thanks to Master for your daily teachings."
He has seen many students with good grades, but it is rare for them to be neither arrogant nor arrogant even at this moment.
Master Chen became more and more satisfied, but he said, "Although you have won the county title, you still need to guard against arrogance and impetuosity. This is just a county examination."
"I sincerely follow Master's teachings." Xu Mingcheng said respectfully.
Then he looked at Gu Wensong, "Your kid usually behaves impeccably, but I didn't expect to get the fifth place. It's really impressive." Master Chen said happily, this kid usually performed mediocrely in the academy.
Unsurprisingly, they thought it would be good if he ranked in the top ten, but they didn't expect that he gave them a surprise.
He also warned, "Although you have obtained a good ranking, don't be proud and complacent. Try to get a good ranking in the government examination." This kid can't boast, otherwise he will go to heaven.
Sure enough, Gu Wensong, who was still a little proud at first, collapsed instantly after hearing Master Chen's last words, "Master, can't you praise me properly?"
Master Chen looked at him funny, "That's not okay. If I praise you, your tail will be raised to the sky."
As soon as these words came out, bursts of laughter erupted in the box, and the box was very lively for a while.
Soon, teachers from other colleges wanted to recruit Xu Mingcheng, but he ignored them and closed the door to prepare for the next government examination. The teacher was right, this was just the beginning, his goal was not this.
A small county case.
"I didn't expect that a county case leader would be so popular. If I had known it was like this, I should have continued to read it." Xu Mingyu said with emotion.
Xu Ming'an glanced at him from the side and said calmly, "Second brother, are you sure? Write an article and read it? Memorize it..." Xu Mingyu interrupted him directly, pretending to be stupid and said, "Third brother, what are you talking about? You
Want to practice martial arts with me?"
Xu Ming'an has already figured out the temperament of his second brother. Although he holds a book on the Art of War all day long, it is limited to the Art of War. If you let him read other books, it will be like killing him.
I don’t know where my mother found Sun Tzu’s Art of War and Thirty-six Strategies, so that my second brother could be so precious.
Where?
Of course it is in the system mall.
Do you still expect her to memorize it?
Don't be ridiculous, although she has seen it, but only after seeing it, memorizing it and dictating it again?
She doesn't have that ability.
"Second brother, don't even think that you can win the county case. With eldest brother here, don't even think about it."
There are many scholars, but not all of them are as talented as his elder brother. Even if he is talented, he is also extremely hard-working. It can be said that except for the four hours of sleeping and one hour of eating, his elder brother is holding a book in his hand.
Even when I go out, I never leave my book.
Xu Ming'an looked at Xu Mingyu melancholy, "Second brother, you have to recognize the excellence of the eldest brother."
Xu Mingyu: "..."
Although, he is also very good, but not in reading.
"Am I not excellent?" Xu Mingyu looked at Xu Ming'an suspiciously, "I can beat ten." Although he does not have the talent for reading, he has the talent for martial arts. Masters say that his talent is so good that it is enviable.
"Excellent, I didn't say that you are not excellent, I just said that you are not as good as your elder brother in studying." After a pause, "My elder brother is not as good as you in martial arts."
Anyway, he felt that both his brothers were excellent, and he was the only one who was not good at literature or martial arts, but his mother said that he was very talented in business, and he really liked doing business.
