Chapter 179 Huiyuan!
"No wonder Ah Yun wanted to come to Bian Jing. After seeing this, I don't even want to go back!"

Zhou Zhan stood at the city gate, dumbfounded for a long time, and then he sighed to Xu Jian, who was also dumbfounded.

Xu Jian came back to his senses at this moment and said, "You said, there are so many people here, if I open a riverside restaurant here, wouldn't it be very profitable?"

Zhou Zhan pulled Xu Jian inside and said, "Let's talk about this later. Let's go find Ah Yun first."

The two men passed through the city gate and entered the city. According to the address Su Shi gave them, they asked people along the way as they walked inside. However, as they walked, they found something was wrong, because the road was obviously very wide, but it was blocked by vehicles and horses.

Fortunately, the two men came on foot, holding the packaged property tightly in their arms, and then walked forward among the carriages.

“It seems to be in front, right?”

Zhou Zhan stood on a high place, and Xu Jian also looked over. He was shocked to see that the traffic jam ahead was even worse.

Zhou Zhan quickly asked the passers-by next to him: "Hello, what is this place in front of us, and why are there so many people going there?"

The passerby looked at Zhou Zhan with disdain and said, "You are from another place, right?"

Zhou Zhan was immediately angered by the contemptuous look and said, "What's wrong with being an outsider? Did he eat your noodles?"

The passerby was also brave and was about to hit Zhou Zhan with his fist. Zhou Zhan was not afraid of trouble, but Xu Jian quickly stopped him and said a few soft words to the passerby, and the passerby let Zhou Zhan go.

Someone nearby who was watching the fun said with a smile, "Today is the day for the announcement of the results of the imperial examination. The Imperial College is in front of us, so naturally everyone is here to see the announcement.

Oh, there are also people who go to the list to catch a son-in-law. Everyone in Bian Jing knows it.

You don’t know, when he said you were from outside, he wasn’t trying to belittle you.”

Zhou Zhan and Xu Jian suddenly realized what was going on and hurriedly thanked the onlookers. Although they squeezed to the front, they could not go any further after reaching the Imperial College.

Zhou Zhan was still a little anxious and wanted to squeeze forward, but Xu Jian stopped him and said, "Since we are here, let's take a look at the Bianjing City Xingbang. I heard that Ayun also participated. Maybe we can follow the person who brought the good news to find Ayun later."

Zhou Zhan suddenly understood what was going on, clapped his hands and said with a smile: "You are so cunning that you even came up with this idea."

Xu Jian: “…”

Hey, is this how the idiom "cunning and sly" is used?

However, along the way, Xu Jian realized that although Zhou Zhan had been educated, he was still ignorant of one thing, so he did not bother with him.

The two of them squeezed to the front and earned a lot of contempt.

The two of them squeezed to the front. Although the weather was still cold, they both broke out in a sweat.

Suddenly, a gong sounded, and the gate of the Imperial Examination Hall creaked open, as if two rows of imperial guards had rumbled out, clearing a path. An official came out, holding a yellow list in his hand, and said loudly: "The spring examination of the fifth year of Yuanfeng was completed in late February. After nearly twenty days of grading, the chief and deputy examiners graded the papers fairly and impartially, listed the rankings, and reported them to the government for approval. The list will be announced today!

Please don't push and jostle to avoid accidents. Candidates who did well in the exam should be congratulated. Candidates who did not do so well should not be discouraged. They should study hard and prepare for the next imperial examination. Enough of small talk. Come, master, post the list!"

The crowd cheered immediately, and then the crowd began to surge. The imperial guards who were blocking the people from reading the list suddenly shouted in unison: "Stop! Stop! Stop!"

The crowd calmed down immediately.

One of the two persons in charge held the yellow list while the other quickly applied paste on the wall, then stepped on a chair and posted the yellow list.

Xu Jian and Zhou Zhan were in front and could see it clearly.

I saw the first yellow list being shaken open and then posted. On the yellow list were the rankings, native places and names of the candidates. The native places were detailed, with the roads, prefectures, states and counties all listed one by one. Generally speaking, there would be no duplicate names.

Xu Jian asked Zhou Zhan, "Ah Yun is from Meishan, Meizhou. Let's all keep an eye on him. Don't miss him!"

Zhou Zhan was nervous and excited, and nodded repeatedly.

However, after reading the first yellow list, they did not see Su Yun's name. They quickly consoled themselves: "Perhaps his ranking is relatively high, so he is not on this list."

The second list was also posted. After looking around again, Su Yun was still not there.

At this moment, the two looked at each other, both a little panicked.

The last list is posted.

Xu Jian was used to looking up from the back, but Zhou Zhan looked directly at the front. When he saw this, he jumped up with joy: "Ayun is Lord Huiyuan! Ayun is Lord Huiyuan!"

Xu Jian looked forward anxiously, and sure enough, the first name was Su Yun!
Xu Jian didn’t quite believe it and quickly looked at his hometown. Hey, it was Su Yun, Meishan, Meizhou!
It's him!

Xu Jian suddenly felt a great joy in his heart. He was naturally happy for Su Yun, but his second thought was: Linjiang Tower is going to be a big hit again!

The poem "Linjiangxian" made Linjiang Tower famous, because this poem is so good, but Su Yun himself is still not well known among the people. Don't say that the Romance of the Three Kingdoms made Su Yun well-known. The reason is that Luo Guanzhong is a household name, but most people don't know who wrote Linjiangxian.

In this era, the influence of a Jinshi is very great. If Su Yun passes the Jinshi exam, the value of Linjiangxian will increase even more!
I heard that Ayun is already the top scholar in the Jieyuan exam, and now he is even more so. If, just if, if Ayun is chosen by the government as the top scholar, hey, the top three scholars in the imperial examination, then Linjiang Tower will be very rich in the future!

Xu Jian was just feeling happy when he was suddenly dragged away by Zhou Zhan, who shouted, "Hurry up, follow the team that's announcing the good news!"

I saw a dozen or so people announcing the good news, pushing through the crowd like wolves rushing to a tomb, shouting in a mess: "Meishan Su Gongyun has won the first place in the imperial examination! Meishan Su Yun has won the first place in the imperial examination!"

The two of them quickly followed behind.

Zhou Zhan was surprised and asked, "Why are there so many teams reporting good news? Why don't others report it?"

Xu Jian said loudly: "If someone wins the Huiyuangong, he will naturally be happier and give more rewards, right?"

In fact, they all guessed wrong. The reason why there were more than ten of them was because the Su Mansion was on the left. They reported the good news first, and then went to other places to report the good news later. Hehe, two rewards!

The two followed the team and soon arrived at the Su Mansion. A servant had already come out and shouted, "Hurry to Zhuquemen Street, the Su Mansion next to Zhang's oil cakes. Young Master Su lives there now!"

The team announcing the good news ran away in a hurry.

Xu Jian and Zhou Zhan hurried to catch up. Zhuquemen Street separated the Imperial College and the Su Mansion. After walking across the street, they saw a magnificent mansion with a plaque of Su Mansion hanging high above.

Those teams that came to announce the good news were naturally overjoyed, but Zhou Zhan and Xu Jian looked at each other in surprise.

Ah Yun came to Bian Jing and became so successful?

This mansion obviously belongs to a wealthy and powerful family. Everyone knows Ayun's background. His uncle Su Shi is still living in Huangzhou, and his uncle Su Zhe is said to be just a minor official. How could they afford to live in such a nice mansion?

Hey, could it be that Ayun was favored by a girl from a wealthy family named Su and was taken in as a son-in-law?

So this Su is not Su Yunzhi's Su?

It seems that it is not impossible!

Ah Yun is very talented, but the key is his face and figure... Tsk, any woman would be confused when seeing him!
But, Ayun, Ayun, you are a good man, you are not short of money, you are talented, and now you are the first place in the Jieyuan and Huiyuan, and you will soon become a Jinshi. Why do you have to humiliate yourself like this!
Just as the two were daydreaming, the good news team shouted, and the gate of the Su Mansion suddenly opened. Several burly men came out and guarded the door. Then someone else strode out with his head held high.

Xu Jian and Zhou Zhan felt that the man looked familiar, but they did not dare to recognize him. They only saw that the man had a dignified aura, a fair complexion, a tall stature, and was dressed in high-quality clothes. They knew at first glance that he was an important figure.

Is this person Ah Hui?

But why has he changed so much?

All I heard was this man shouting, "Fellow villagers, thank you for coming here to announce the good news. Please ask the leaders to come up one by one to claim the reward."

The team that brought the good news were overjoyed. They went up one by one to collect the reward and then ran away quickly.

At this time, many neighbors gathered around and came to ask for rewards.

The young man just smiled and waved his hand. Several people came out from inside. Two of them were carrying a basket of copper coins. They then sprinkled handfuls of copper coins outside, which immediately caused a scramble.

Xu Jian and Zhou Zhan naturally didn't go to grab it, but squeezed to the bottom of the stairs and shouted: "Ah Hui! Ah Hui! Is that you?"

Ah Hui saw Xu Jian and Zhou Zhan at the steps and immediately asked happily, "Mr. Xu, Mr. Zhou, why are you in Bianjing?"

Xu Jian and Zhou Zhan said happily: "It's you!"

Ah Hui turned around and said to Ah Hu, "Brother Hu, please entertain the neighbors. These two are old friends of the young master. If the young master knew they were coming, he would be very happy, much happier than the Duke of Zhonghui."

Ah Hui brought Xu Jian and Zhou Zhan into the Su Mansion. Today, the Su Mansion was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

Although the servants were newly recruited, they had a bright future ahead of them as their master had such a happy event. For them, firstly, they would definitely have a good meal today and would also receive a reward. More importantly, they would also be proud of their master becoming a high official in the future.

Xu Jian and Zhou Zhan walked through the three courtyards and entered the main living room. They were both a little surprised and asked Ah Hui, "This place is so big, how many tens of thousands of strings of cash must it cost to start with?"

Ah Hui smiled and said, "This mansion was given to you by the government. You can't buy it. It's not a matter of money."

Xu Jian and Zhou Zhan were even more surprised and asked, "Even the government knows about Ah Yun?"

Ah Hui smiled and said, "We are here. The Master is in the living room. Let's go see him together."

When he entered the living room, he saw Su Yun. When Su Yun heard the footsteps, his face suddenly became surprised and he said, "Lao Xu, Lao Zhou, why are you here?"

Xu Jian and Zhou Zhan both laughed.
