A car accident, our family of three crossed

But he had just walked out of the crowd when he suddenly remembered that he was so excited that he forgot to look for Master Liu's name.

So he had to squeeze in again, "Excuse me, excuse me, excuse me..."

After great effort, I finally squeezed to the front. My clothes were in disarray and my hair was messy.

I looked at the list in the order I had just looked at it, and after looking at dozens of people, I still couldn't find Master Liu's name.

The further Hang Shuyun read, the heavier his heart became. He began to lose hope, but he didn't expect to find Master Liu's name near the bottom of the list.

This made him extremely excited. Master Liu also passed the imperial examination. Now there were two successful candidates in their village. If the villagers knew this news, they would be so happy!

The onlookers saw that this young man was happy at one moment, sad at another, and happy again at another moment, and they wondered if he was crazy with joy, right?

"Little brother, you look so happy. How many people in your family have passed the imperial examination?"

"Two, two people, both passed the exam." Hang Shuyun laughed foolishly. He wanted to share his joy with the whole world. "The second place winner, second place winner, did you see that? Hang Shuheng, that's my brother. Mr. Xie Yuxi, the first place winner, is my brother's good friend. And the fifty-ninth place winner is the teacher of our village primary school."

He named them one by one, as if he knew all of them by heart. Xie Nan couldn't stand his silly look of not wanting money anymore, so she went straight into the crowd and carried the person out in everyone's envious gazes.

"time to go."

Along the way, Hang Shuyun was almost always carried around by Xie Nan. He was just having fun and didn't care at all. Even if he was taken to be sold and the silver he earned was stuffed into his hands, he would still help count it.

It was not until they returned to the downstairs of Juren Building that Xie Nan patted the guy on the back of his head and said, "Hey, hey, it's time to wake up."

"Uh, huh?" Hang Shuyun finally reacted after being slapped. He looked up and found that they had returned to the Juren Building. He was happy again, lifted his skirt, and ran to the private room upstairs. "Yes, yes, yes, Mr. Xie passed the exam, my brother passed the exam, and Master Liu also passed the exam."

"Mr. Xie won the Liyuan Prize, and my brother won the Yayuan Prize..."

He ran and shouted all the way, and before he reached the private room, everyone in the room had already known the news that one of the people in the room had won the first place in the imperial examination and the other had won the second place in the imperial examination.

Everyone looked at him with envy. Most people had heard of Xie Yuxi's name, but most knew him only because of his appearance, so many people overlooked his talent.

As for Hang Shuheng, even fewer people outside Pingyang County knew him. This sudden dark horse made people curious about who he was.

When the news reached Hang Shuheng and others, both Hang Shuheng and Xie Yuxi remained extremely calm. Such a ranking was completely within their expectations.

On the other hand, Master Liu was already so excited that his eyes were filled with tears, and he almost hugged his head and cried with the equally excited Hang Shuyun.

He passed the imperial examination. What great news was that? He had taken the exam several times, and finally, his hard work paid off. He finally passed.

Even though his ranking was very low, almost at the bottom, but if others told others that he was a juren.

After the excitement subsided, he remembered that he had not yet congratulated the other two. He quickly wiped his eyes and bowed to Hang Shuheng and Xie Yuxi: "Congratulations, Master Xie, Master Shuheng."

These two, one the first place winner and the other the second place winner, are both geniuses, and they are incomparable to ten of them combined. Master Liu has no jealousy at all.

On the contrary, he was able to pass the exam this time thanks to Hang Shuheng sharing his daily notes and frequent guidance, which benefited him a lot in every way.

"Congratulations to you too, Master Liu."

They both congratulated Master Liu at the same time, and then teased each other.

"Congratulations, Brother Xie, for taking the top spot."

"Congratulations to Brother Hang as well. Ya Yuan is not bad either."

After the joke, the two became serious again and talked about their next plans.

Xie Yuxi planned to go back to the county school. After all, since he passed the imperial examination, he had to go back to thank the principal and the teachers.

This point was the same as what Hang Shuheng thought.

After thanking the teachers, I may have to set out on the journey to Beijing to take the imperial examination. Many things still need to be planned carefully.

Following their advice, Master Liu also decided to make a concerted effort and go to the capital to give it a try.

It would be great to be able to pass the imperial examination, but even if you fail, it would be a valuable experience. When the students he taught are able to go to Beijing to take the imperial examinations in the future, he would be able to give them advice.

When the imperial examination results were posted, some people were happy while others were disappointed.

After learning that Hang Shuheng and Master Liu had both taken part in this imperial examination, Dean Cao became extremely concerned about their rankings. When the government announced the results, he mingled with the crowd to see the list himself.

When he saw that Hang Shuheng's ranking was just below the top of the list, he was shocked and unwilling at the same time. He thought that if this man had been willing to marry his daughter, their relationship would not have become so strained. Then he would be Ya Yuan's father-in-law at this moment.

He looked at the list from the beginning to the end, and then from the end to the beginning, over and over again, but he didn't see his name. Instead, he found the name of Master Liu, with whom he had worked, near the end of the list.

He could accept that Hang Shuheng ranked high. After all, he was at the top of the list during the college entrance examination.

But Master Liu also passed the exam, while he himself failed, which he could not accept no matter what. They were both teachers in the academy, and he was even the dean. Why did the other party pass the exam while he failed? How was he inferior to the other party?

However, whether Dean Cao accepted it or not, it was a foregone conclusion that Master Liu passed the exam while he himself failed.

His gaze lingered on the names of Hang Shuheng and Liu Fuzi for a long time. Finally, after the servant beside him carefully reminded him that he had failed the exam, he left the crowd in shame.
