Chapter 2164

Meng ran Xi went to LAN's house. No matter how much Meng San's wife tossed, Ruhui was very calm.

More than a month passed quickly.

Ruhui sent Meng ranxi to the examination room. Before he got out of the carriage, he said, "don't worry, Xianggong. I'm sure you'll make it." With her husband's talent and learning, as long as she plays normally, she will definitely be on the list.

"I won't let you down," she said with a smile

When she got home, Ruhui heard that Mrs. Meng San had started fasting and asked everyone in Sanfang to follow her.

Ruhui said jokingly, "what's the use of eating fast and chanting Buddha? Buddha, it does not care about the imperial examination! If you want to worship, you should also worship Wenqu star. " Before the exam, Mrs. Meng began to take Meng Guangwu's daughter-in-law to various temples to offer incense, hoping that Buddha beads would bless her son to succeed in the exam.

Maisui said softly, "third grandma, shall we go to Wenqu star temple to worship Wenqu star king, and ask him to bless the third master to pass the exam."

"Poetry can't leave me." The child is young. If he takes it to the mountain, he will not be beautiful.

In fact, Ruhui doesn't believe that. If she worships God and Buddha, she will be able to pass the exam. She will have to study hard for more than ten years.

There will be an examination for nine days, once every three days. This is the same as the previous dynasty. However, the examination time was changed to September, and he suffered less than before.

After each test, Meng Lanxi was picked up by his family. Ruhui offered delicious food without asking how well she did in the exam. In her words, they have finished the exam, and it's no use asking again except to make Meng ranxi nervous.

Nine days passed in a flash. After Meng ran Xi finished the exam, he relaxed and fell asleep when he got home. When I woke up again, it was the next night.

Ruhui gave him some water to wash and said, "do you want noodles or porridge?" If you don't eat for a day, it's better to eat noodles or porridge.

"Is grandfather at home?" Hearing that Meng Shangshu was at home, she washed her face and said, "I'll go to find my grandfather."

Ruhui took his arm and refused to let him go. She said in a soft voice, "I'm not in a hurry to get to the right topic. I'll go after eating.".

Meng ranxi had no choice but to agree.

Half a quarter of an hour later, a bowl of noodles with mushroom and chicken soup was served. in

A bowl of noodles was eaten by monrancy. After wiping her mouth, she went to the front yard to find Meng Shangshu.

Outside Meng Shangshu's study, I learned that Meng Guangwu had come an hour ago.

Meng Shangshu saw Meng ranxi and asked him if he had eaten. When he heard that, he asked him to write down the answers.

It was in the middle of the night that she returned to her yard. As soon as I entered the yard, I saw that the light of the master bedroom was still on.

After entering the room, she saw Ruhui was still awake. Without waiting for her to ask, she said, "my grandfather read my answer and said that he should be able to pass the exam."

"Can I get into the second class a?" A total of 300 people were enrolled in the previous imperial examination, but this has changed. Two hundred people have been admitted to the examination. There were three in the first, sixty in the second and 137 in the third. A, such as Hui is dare not think; She would be satisfied as long as she could enter the second division.

Meng ranxi shook his head and said, "it's not sure." Mainly depends on how other candidates test.

Ruhui said with a smile: "anyway, you've finished the exam. You can accompany Shiyin these two days!"

Because Meng Lanxi wanted to prepare for the examination, he didn't care about his wife and children. And the former paragraph is to live to orchid home, it is more than a month did not see daughter.

"Good." It's better to stay at home with your children than to go out and wander around.

Early the next morning, Ruhui heard that Meng Guangwu was ill: "Xianggong, my fifth brother had a high fever last night." After the examination, many people will get sick. Therefore, Meng Guangpeng's fever is not unusual.

"Let's go and see him later."

In the third room, Mrs. Meng's eyes were not good. I don't know. I thought they had a grudge!

Ruhui was not a man to swallow his anger, so he calmed down: "my husband and I have come to visit my fifth brother. What do you mean, third aunt? Is it hard to say that we have come to the wrong place? "

Third lady Meng said in a cold voice: "the imperial list has not come out yet. It's too early for you to come here to show off."

Ruhui you is not stupid. Now she knows that it's the old man who says Meng Guangwu is hopeless. I guess I can't bear the blow. I fell ill at night.

Mengran Xila Ruhui, toward mengsanfu humanity: "three aunts, you take good care of five younger brother, we go back first."

Ruhui went back in spite of her anger. When she arrived in her room, she could not help but scold her: "I have never seen such a shameless elder." No one can be respected without the kind of elders.

Although Meng ranxi is not comfortable, over the years, he has been used to these vicious words: "she is just like that. It's not worth being angry for her."

Ruhui was surprised: "before the exam, didn't you tell them Meng Guangwu didn't have much hope this time?"

"Yes, my grandfather told my grandmother and my fifth brother. I think the third aunt should also know it

On the day when the examination results came out, Meng Fu sent someone to guard it. When the list has been posted, they will see the results for the first time.

No matter how calm she was, she was still very nervous. After all, it's a lifetime thing. Holding Shiyin in her hand, her eyes are always floating out.

Ruhui also wants to know the result, but she is stable. Seeing this, she jokingly says, "why don't you wait outside! In this way, the results will be known. "

Mengran Xi shook his head and said, "no, it's the same to wait here."

Half an hour later, Meng ranxi's personal entourage ran into the inner courtyard from the outer courtyard. As he ran, he cried: "yes, the third master has won..."

When Meng ranxi heard this, he stood up immediately with joy. Shiyin thought she was teasing her and giggled.

Ruhui also walked out of the room and asked, "how many winners did the third master win?"

Hearing that Meng ranxi had won the 29th place in the exam, Ruhui was very happy: "reward, one month for each person."

At that time, they were all twenty-three, just compared with the students in the capital. But with so many excellent talents in the country, it's really not easy to win this place.

Hearing that he had won the test and was better than expected in the ranking, Meng ranxi's heart was also relaxed. But soon, he asked, "how many is Hui di?"

The follower said with a smile: "master LAN is the member of this session."

Meng ranxi was overjoyed: "I knew that Huidi would be the first in the exam."

With that, Meng ran Xi said to Ruhui, "this time I can get such a good name thanks to Huidi. We have to thank him again." Unlike the tense atmosphere of the Meng family, LAN Yanghui seems to have no idea that she will try soon. I occasionally exchange my learning experience with Meng ranxi, but in my spare time I like to talk to him about how delicious the dishes in Fuyun building and Deyue building are, and which shop has the best cakes. Influenced by him, she had a very good attitude before the exam.

Ruhui said with a smile: "this is natural."

After thinking about it, Ruhui said, "ah Zhan sent a picture to master LAN in order to let him agree you to study in LAN's house."

"What word?"

This Ruhui didn't know: "I don't know any words. Uncle Zhong didn't tell me. However, it should not be ordinary calligraphy and painting that can enter master LAN's eyes. " Ninghai has collected many antique paintings and books. As the successor, Ning Zhan can use these things at any time.

Meng ran Xi inherited this feeling from his brother-in-law.

After the meeting, the next is the palace examination. However, the palace examination was attended by the first and second class members, and there was nothing wrong with the third class members.

The third lady of Meng felt that her success in the exam was due to LAN Yanghui's guidance. So she felt that if Meng ranxi agreed to take her son to LAN's house to study that day, Meng Guangwu would also get the exam.

With this idea, the third lady of Meng became more and more dissatisfied with Meng ranxi and Ruhui.

Meng ranxi didn't care about her, but Ruhui quit. Once again, after being ridiculed by the third lady of Meng, Ruhui directly sued Meng Shangshu.

Meng Shangshu scolded the third lady in front of Ruhui and Meng Guangwu's daughter-in-law: "Guangwu's foundation is not solid. This time, he just tried his hand to get familiar with the atmosphere of the examination room. But according to you, he didn't pass the exam because Rashi didn't help. My grandfather didn't do his best? "

Mrs. Meng three knelt on the ground and did not dare.

After Meng Shangshu made a fire, he banned the third lady of Meng for three months, and then let the people disperse.

Looking at his tired face, Mrs. Meng reproached herself and said, "master, I didn't manage this family well." She also scolded Mrs. Meng San, but it was useless.

Meng Shangshu looked at old lady Meng and said, "it's not that you didn't manage the family well, it's that we didn't get a good daughter-in-law." Now because of his presence, the eldest daughter-in-law and the youngest daughter-in-law dare not make too much trouble. As soon as he closes his eyes, the family will be broken up. However, as long as Meng Guangpeng and his brothers are promising, he will die in peace.

Mrs. Meng San's feet were forbidden, and others were frightened. Mengjiadun when the wind is calm and the waves are quiet, mengranxi can also prepare for the palace examination with ease.

After the palace examination, Meng ran Xi came home with a smile on his face.

"Did you do well in the exam?" Ruhui asked

Meng ranxi did not answer this, but said: "Ruhui, this is the Royal examination presided over by his Highness the prince."

Ruhui asked strangely, "Your Highness is the crown prince. In the past two years, he has started to deal with some government affairs. It's no accident that the emperor and the queen will let him preside over the palace examination."

Meng ranxi said with a smile: "the palace examination is presided over by the prince, then we are even the prince's students." As the first batch of students, they will certainly be valued in the future.

I'm so happy for this!

Ruhui asked with a smile, "how was your test this time?" I hope we don't fall behind again.

Meng ranxi felt pretty good, but he was cautious and didn't dare to boast: "it's all done." He answered the question very smoothly this time.

The results of the palace examination came out soon. The number one scholar was LAN Yanghui, and the number one scholar and the number one scholar were the two talents from the northwest and the south of the Yangtze River.

When Ruhui heard that Meng ranxi had won the twenty-one place in the imperial examination, she asked, "should this place be able to enter the Imperial Academy?"

Meng ran Xi en a way: "grandfather's meaning, let me enter the Yamen experience for three years, and then put out to boil qualifications."

After entering the Imperial Academy, you will be qualified to be a minister in the future. However, since ancient times, there are only a few people who have gone out of the cabinet to be Prime Minister: "since grandfather said that, he has his own consideration."

Before long, Meng Lanxi entered the Ministry of official affairs.

PS: I'm sorry. I'm really tired today. I coaxed my child to sleep and I fell asleep.
