The imperial examination was held as scheduled.
"Zhou Buyi, please be more diligent during this period and run around to see who will be the first." Liu Kedao.
"Does this need to be said? Apart from my apprentice Yuan Long, there will be no other person." Zhou Busuo vowed.
"Returning your apprentice, who gives you the right to accept apprentices?" Liu Ke asked.
Zhou Buji secretly said something bad and quickly made up for it: "I'm going to run errands right now!"
Today¡¯s imperial examinations are not as complicated as those of later generations. The examination can be completed in one day, but the results still have to wait for the examiner to approve the paper.
After Chen Deng came out of the examination room, he was completely exhausted, as if he had run a five-kilometer extended race.
Seeing how confident the students were after coming out, Chen Deng felt a little emotional.
They went to Zuixian Tower in small groups. During this period, they also invited Chen Deng, but Chen Deng refused.
¡°Ignore him, he must have failed the test and is in a bad mood.¡± Gu Tong mocked.
Chen Deng didn¡¯t refute, packed up his things, got on the carriage, and went straight back home.
Before entering the room, there was a coughing sound inside.
Chen Deng was confused.
"Father, how are you?"
Chen Gui waved his hand, and a maid silently withdrew.
¡°I¡¯m old, these are things I should experience.¡±
"Father, you will live a long life." Chen Deng affirmed.
"That's natural. I haven't seen Yuan Long grow up yet. How could he die so easily? The Chen family still needs me after all." Chen Gui said confidently.
"Of course, without you, father, the Chen family cannot survive." Chen Deng said.
"The doctor said that as long as you get through it, it won't be a problem to live for a few more years, so don't worry about me." Chen Gui said, "My son, how did you do in the exam?"
"It's not bad. There is a noble person to help me with this exam." Chen Deng said.
"Oh? Which noble person?" Chen Gui said in surprise.
Yangzhou may not care about the identity of the second and fifth sons of the Chen family, but since Chen Gui's health failed and he stopped interacting with other families, and Chen Deng entered Taixue again, the Chen family's communication was very poor.
In Yangzhou, the Chen family is a marginalized small family.
Who would be kind enough to help the Chen family?
"He is Zhou Buyi, a disciple of Dongyang Hou." Chen Deng said.
"A disciple of Marquis Dongyang? Yuanlong, you must seize the opportunity!" Chen Gui said excitedly.
"Yes, father, the child knows." Chen Deng said obediently.
Three days have passed, and the examiner has finished marking the papers, but they have not announced them directly, but will conduct a review, so it will take a few more days.
However, this is not a big problem for Zhou Buji. Once Liu Ke¡¯s banner is unfurled, who wouldn¡¯t lose face?
¡°The teacher asked me to pay attention to the list at any time.¡± Zhou Busuo said obediently.
Kong Rong did not refuse.
The first place is indeed no surprise.
As for who the second place was, Zhou Busuo didn¡¯t even look at it, so during the report, Liu Ke didn¡¯t know whether to laugh or cry.
"What's going on? You just came back just to see the first place?" Liu Ke scolded.
¡°The first place is still interesting, but it¡¯s okay not to look at the others.¡± Zhou Buyi said Niubi.
After reporting his work, Zhou Buyi ran away quickly. Now it was time for him to put in his pen.
"Want to know about the first place in the imperial examination? Give me money!"
Zhuge Liang was also dumbfounded and said, "Who cares?"
"It's so boring!" Zhou Buji sighed.
Fortunately, Chen Deng came in and said, "Thank you sir for your help! My father is ill in bed and has never had a chance to come out. Please forgive me, sir."
"Who wants your thanks? Let me ask you, do you want to know who is number one?" Zhou Busuo asked.
Chen Deng shook his head. How could he still have such thoughts now?
"What's wrong with each of you? It's not as fun as Zihuan!" Zhou Buyi said.
Sure enough, when people grow up, they will have all kinds of troubles.
Zhou Busuo wrote a few words on the white paper and walked out of the room angrily.
Although Zhuge Liang didn't care much, he still took a peek and said, "Congratulations Yuanlong!"
Chen Deng forced a smile.
Then Zhou Buji jumped in and said, "Sure enough, they are all little liars!"
After saying that, heReally left.
How could no one care about the first place in the imperial examination?
"It's just that Chen Deng didn't have any thoughts, and Zhuge Liang didn't want Zhou Busu to feel comfortable.
When the list was published, Chen Deng did not go and was still taking care of his father at the bedside.
"Yuanlong, why don't you go and see it?" Chen Gui said weakly.
"Father, there is no difference between leaving the servants and me going. Anyway, the result will not change." Chen Deng said.
"I'm holding you back!" Chen Gui sighed.
"Father, please don't say that, I should take care of you." Chen Deng said.
"Haha" Chen Gui laughed, very satisfied with having such a caring and sensible son.
"I hit it! The young master is the first!"
The Chen Mansion was boiling.
Although it was expected, Chen Deng was still a little afraid that Zhou Buji would deceive him. Now that it was finally done, Chen Deng breathed a sigh of relief.
"As expected of me, the Qilin'er of the Chen family!" Chen Gui said excitedly.
The Chen family deserves credit!
When millions of allied troops attacked Yangzhou, it was the Chen family who secretly trusted Yuan Shao, making him suspicious.
This is a great achievement!
Later, Liu Ke attacked Liu Bei in Xuzhou, and the Chen family offered Xiapi County.
This is a small achievement.
With such merit, if Chen Gui wanted to seek an official position, it was impossible for Liu Ke not to give it to him.
¡°But Chen Gui knows that he is older and the future belongs to young people.
And if you want to integrate into Yangzhou as soon as possible, the imperial examination is the best choice.
Now, Chen Deng has succeeded, just like the credit has been settled, and his future is boundless.
Suddenly, Chen Gui couldn't catch his breath and fainted.
"Father! Father!" Chen Deng called twice, but it had no effect by pinching him, so he quickly called the doctor.
The doctor used a large number of medicinal materials, including precious ginseng, to finally rescue Chen Gui. However, his breath was very weak.
"Doctor, how's it going?" Chen Deng said anxiously.
¡°If we can survive tonight, there may be a chance of improvement,¡± the doctor said.
Chen Deng stayed with her all night, but in the end Chen Gui still couldn't get through it.
Therefore, Chen Deng wore white clothes, and the Chen family lost its joy.
The next day, after Liu Ke learned about it, he came to express his condolences in person.
"Yuanlong, this is the end of the matter. You must take care of yourself." Liu Ke comforted him.
"Thank you, Marquis Dongyang, for your concern!" Chen Deng said with red and swollen eyes.
After leaving the Chen family, Liu Ke felt heavy and took his children to visit Liu Youyi. Now Liu Youyi was very bloated. Liu Ke was a little worried, so he asked Hua Tuo to check it out. Hua Tuo said it was nothing serious, and Liu Ke felt relieved.
¡°Father, it¡¯s better to exercise regularly in the future.¡± Liu Ke warned for the first time.
"My son is interested!" Liu Youyi said with a smile.
Soon the people of Yangzhou knew that Chen Deng, the new champion, had his father pass away due to excessive excitement on the day he won the exam.
It¡¯s so sad that happy events and funerals all happened on the same day. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
