Since coming to this world, Xu Qingyan has gotten along with Zhao Junchen the most, and Xu Qingyan has never had any scheming in front of Zhao Junchen, so Zhao Junchen can be said to know Xu Qingyan very well.

Now, as soon as he saw Xu Qingyan's expression, Zhao Junchen knew that something interesting must have happened.

This matter should not be small, otherwise Xu Qingyan's expression would not be so strict, but it should not be a confidential matter, otherwise Xu Qingyan's expression would not be so excited.

So, Zhao Junchen didn't care about Chen Dongxiang beside him, and asked directly: "Qingyan, but what happened?" ”

"This ......"

Xu Qingyan glanced at Chen Dongxiang, a little hesitant, as if he didn't know whether to explain in front of Chen Dongxiang.

And Chen Dongxiang was also quite interested, and when he saw Xu Qingyan's hesitant expression, he wanted to get up and say goodbye to avoid suspicion.

However, before Chen Dongxiang could speak, Zhao Junchen had already waved his hand and said, "Qingyan, you don't have to worry about anything, just say something directly." Lord Chen is not an outsider, so there is nothing to hide from him. ”

Although he knew that this was just Zhao Junchen's polite words, Chen Dongxiang had already been accustomed to Zhao Junchen's exclusion and alienation these days, and now seeing Zhao Junchen treating him affectionately, he still couldn't help but feel a little excited and happy in his heart.

Of course, Chen Dongxiang's facial expression was full of gratitude and touch, quite a bit of "the death of a confidant", and deliberately let Zhao Junchen see it.

But Zhao Junchen also knows that such an expression is credible. It may not be higher than the polite words I just said.

Above officialdom, that's it. Since Emperor Deqing and below, everyone is a drama - they are acting, and they also know that each other is acting, but everyone is acting very seriously and knows each other.

This situation, in fact, is quite funny and weird when you think about it, but no one wants to change it, and no one dares to change it.

…………

The other side. Xu Qingyan naturally didn't notice these details, and he didn't think that the news he was about to report would be a confidential matter, so after hearing Zhao Junchen's instructions, he replied: "Young master, the news just came that the Ministry of Rites has reviewed all the answer sheets for this exam, and the results have come out. ”

"Oh? The results of the examination have come out? Zhao Junchen said in surprise.

Speaking of which. From the end of the examination to now, it has only been half a month, and the results have been released so quickly, which naturally surprised Zhao Junchen.

However, although Zhao Junchen was surprised, he was not surprised.

Emperor Deqing is now bent on going to the south after the palace test. Therefore, he also urged the results of the examination again and again, and it was reasonable for the examiners to work day and night to get the results in advance.

…………

And the results of the spring will be tested. For the forces of the ruling and opposition parties, it will naturally be a major event. Among them, there is a lot of Zhao Junchen's hard work and layout - he plans to use the opportunity of this Spring Festival to recruit some talents for his own use - for this goal, Zhao Junchen not only laid out early, but also sent Liu Zimin to recruit those candidates who are willing to take refuge in him; put a lot of thought into it, won the support of Zhou Shangjing, Huang Yourong and Shen Changmao, the three elders, and stole the exam questions of the current college entrance examination and handed them to those candidates who took refuge in him - now that he has finally waited for the results, it is no wonder that Xu Qingyan is so excited.

After thinking about it, Zhao Junchen nodded and asked with interest, "What is the result?" Who became the current branch of the company? Is it Zhou Suwen? Or is it Zhao Shancai? ”

Zhou Suwen, is the youngest grandson of Zhou Shangjing, I heard that he has always been the most favored and loved by Zhou Shangjing, not to mention the origin of family learning, he is also smart and studious, and he has long been known as a "prodigy" in the capital.

As for Zhao Shancai, known as "the first genius in Jiangnan", he is not only excellent in learning, but also has outstanding knowledge and a shrewd heart, and is also a close disciple of the former prince and master He Ming, who inherited He Ming's knowledge of the emperor's mental arts, and is the young talent that Zhao Junchen values most in the current examination - it is a pity that this person still has a naïve and insistent heart, and he wants to serve the prince Zhu and Yu, and he is indifferent in the face of Zhao Junchen's repeated solicitations, which makes Zhao Junchen quite regretful.

According to Zhao Junchen, the candidates for the current examination will only be produced among these two people.

After hearing Zhao Junchen's inquiry, Xu Qingyan became more and more excited, and replied: "Young master, you are wise, the candidate for the Huiyuan examination in this department is Zhou Shangjing's grandson Zhou Suwen, and Zhao Shancai is ranked second on the apricot list. ”

Seeing that Zhao Junchen was thoughtful, Xu Qingyan continued to explain: "According to the information I inquired, after those examiners have reviewed all the answer sheets, among the current candidates, Zhao Shancai and Zhou Suwen have the best answer sheets, which can be said to be equal, and it is very suitable for anyone to be the Huiyuan." However, Zhao Shancai and Zhou Suwen are both famous young talents after all, and their calligraphy and paintings are also circulated in the capital. In addition, most of the examiners are Zhou Shangjing's protégés and students, and they have the intention to please Zhou Shangjing, so they just found some flaws in Zhao Shancai's answer sheet, and then let Zhou Suwen be the leader of the Yuan List! ”

After finishing speaking, Xu Qingyan's expression flashed with disdain and hatred.

Zhao Shancai had repeatedly rejected Zhao Junchen's solicitation before, Xu Qingyan was naturally dissatisfied with this, and only felt that Zhao Shancai didn't know how to lift, and now he saw that Zhao Shancai failed to become a Huiyuan, and he was naturally happy in his heart.

And according to Xu Qingyan's opinion, if Zhao Shancai was willing to accept Zhao Junchen's solicitation at the beginning, then with Zhao Junchen's attention to Zhao Shancai, Zhao Shancai may not lose the great glory of the Huiyuan List so easily.

"I see." Zhao Junchen nodded again, not surprised by this, but felt a little sorry for Zhao Shancai, and then stared at him, and then asked, "So...... What about the results of other candidates? ”

As for which candidates Zhao Junchen's "other candidates" refer to, not only Xu Qingyan is very clear, but even Chen Dongxiang on the side is also very clear - naturally refers to Liu Zimin, Zeng Wei, Xiao Wenxuan, etc., who took refuge in Zhao Junchen's disciples before the exam.

After all, Zhao Junchen did not deliberately hide his idea of recruiting some talents for his own use with the help of this meeting, and most of the officials under him knew it, and through a series of interest exchanges, they obtained the support of Zhou Shangjing, Huang Yourong, and Shen Changmao, the three elders, but they were not afraid of others knowing.

The results of these candidates are not only related to their own future development, but also related to the future talent reserve of Zhao Junchen and his faction.

And after Xu Qingyan heard Zhao Junchen's inquiry, he was also in good spirits and said: "Young master, those candidates who were recruited by you can be regarded as fighting in this examination, and we have not wasted our strength in vain!" Among them, the best result is Zeng Wei, the youngest son of Zeng Congrong, the political envoy of Sichuan, who ranked third in the current examination, second only to Zhou Suwen and Zhao Shancai! What a future! In addition, I didn't expect that Liu Zimin had some academic skills in addition to sneaking around and shooting horses, and he even took the ninth place in the exam, and among the candidates who took refuge in the young master, he was only under Zeng Wei. In addition to Zeng Wei and Liu Zimin, there are also twenty-one candidates who have taken refuge in the young master! ”

Then, Xu Qingyan pulled out a list from his sleeve, which seemed to be the results of the current examination, and then read the results of those candidates who had defected to Zhao Junchen in the examination to Zhao Junchen one by one.

After listening to Xu Qingyan's report, Chen Dongxiang on the side was already one step ahead, got up and congratulated: "Congratulations, congratulations, my lord, you have recruited so many promising young talents under the door, it can be seen that your prestige and appeal among the government and the opposition are high!" It is also clear that your voice in the DPRK will definitely become stronger in the future! In the future, it will be a good idea to enter the cabinet. ”

Hearing Chen Dongxiang's compliment, Zhao Junchen smiled and nodded, but his brows were slightly furrowed, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

In the list read out by Xu Qingyan, he didn't even hear the name of "Xiao Wenxuan"!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Xiao Wenxuan, for this cynical candidate, Zhao Junchen was deeply impressed, when he was in Weifu, he also had a friendship with Xiao Wenxuan, and he could be regarded as a little appreciative after talking.

This Xiao Wenxuan, although he has some insight and talent, but because of his extreme and arrogant temperament, he always offends people without knowing it, so although he had the intention to seek fame and fame, he was excluded from the circle by Liu Zimin, Zeng Wei and others, and just fell into a bad reputation of "taking refuge in corrupt official Zhao Junchen".

However, later, after Zhao Junchen's hint, Liu Zimin and others should have re-accepted Xiao Wenxuan!

And Xiao Wenxuan's own talent is also good, and he got the exam questions revealed by Zhao Junchen in advance, why did he not have his ranking in the end?

Could it be that Xiao Wenxuan is actually famous in Sun Shan?

Thinking of this, Zhao Junchen raised his head and asked, "Why don't you have Xiao Wenxuan's name?" ”

Hearing Zhao Junchen's inquiry, Xu Qingyan was also stunned.

Xu Qingyan also had some impressions of Xiao Wenxuan, but Xiao Wenxuan was just a small person in his eyes after all, and he didn't deliberately pay attention, and now under Zhao Junchen's reminder, he couldn't help but feel surprised to see that Xiao Wenxuan's name was not on the apricot list.

It's just that Xu Qingyan doesn't know what the reason is.

Seeing Xu Qingyan's expression, Zhao Junchen didn't ask, just waved his hand lightly and ordered, "Go and find out." ”
