In the second Cuju match, the score of the two teams was one-to-one.
Although there was no winner or loser, both teams played very well. Especially in the last three seconds, Li Jin grabbed the Ju, kicked the yellow team's net steadily and ruthlessly, and scored a point for his red team, bringing the whole game to a climax.
"Which descendant is this, where is he on duty, and why haven't I seen it before?"
This is the most common question asked by the ladies sitting on the sidelines today. Most of the young talents in the capital are familiar with each other.
Naturally, I am very curious about raw faces.
"Do you still remember the Mengxue Suanjing and Nongsang Suanjing that His Majesty ordered to be printed nationwide last October? He is the author of these two books, Li Jin."
"When you said that, I remembered it. I heard that he is already married?"
"Isn't it? There are even children."
"It's a pity. I heard that he is young, how can his family have no eyesight to marry so early?"
It's no wonder that some ladies think this way, as soon as the Jinshi list came out, the custom of 'catching a son-in-law under the list' was very popular in this dynasty.
After all, most of the jinshi are candidates from all over the country, and the proportion of people in Beijing is very small. Most of the 'caught' sons-in-law have never been married, and they are also happy to recognize a father-in-law in Beijing, which can save themselves more than ten years of struggle.
Although she thought so, when the ill-informed lady said this, the ladies around her all sat a little further away from her.
The person whom His Majesty has personally praised, this person dares to directly slaughter them like this, but he is really open-mouthed.
"Yo, when did it become a rule that foreigners who came to Beijing could not marry?" The one who spoke was the wife of the Dushui Qing official and secretary, and his husband was full of praise for Li Jin.
In private, he even said, "This son's future is limitless."
She had never seen her husband make such an evaluation of a person without official status. Even her husband's good friend Zhu Shan said bluntly that 'the way is math'.
At that time, she took the initiative to ask her husband how his future was unlimited.
Yuan Wai Lang said: "If you are an official, you will be a very personable minister. If you are not an official, then..."
The lady said, "Then what?"
"It will last forever."
This lady has always believed in her man's eyesight, so that's why she said that she was injustice for Li Jin.
But everyone is just talking about it, and the matter of other people's haha is over, and it can't make much splash.
Some well-informed wives, seeing that the always gentle Mrs. Yuanwailang was so tough, also paid more attention to Li Jin.
They thought, after hearing that Li Jin participated in the meeting last month, let's look at his ranking first.
And the day before, the Ministry of Rites.
The work of transcribing has long been over, and the examiners who graded the paper began to read the paper repeatedly and draw 'O' or 'X' to indicate their assessment of the answer sheet.
'O' means excellent, and '×' means second. An 'X' is drawn in the 'O' to represent medium.
At least three to five people will make comments on each answer sheet. If they are all 'X', they will definitely not be admitted.
At this time, the answer sheets that the examiners saw were naturally transcribed by the Hanlin people in a unified font.
All are neat and tidy, no difference can be seen, and decisions can only be made in terms of content.
Shu Mingchen is the servant of the Ministry of Rites. As the deputy examiner of this exam, he has great power.
But he refused to rest for a moment, and quickly checked the answer sheets evaluated by the examiners.
No matter what the grades were, he would look at it again, lest the examiners collude and bury a good answer sheet.
But the examiners obviously didn't have the guts to do so. Shu Mingchen checked for so many days and found that they strictly abide by the rules of the examination that the examiner had said, and did not show any favoritism.
When encountering three 'O' answers, Shu Mingchen would read it carefully for a while, then write his own evaluation and put it on his left.
It will be presented to the examiner at a later date.
After a few days, Shu Mingchen only had six answers on his left.
He frowned, thinking that not only the number of Enke's candidates is not as high as the number of regular subjects, but even the quality of the answer sheets is not high.
If their level is only this level, then the number of people who can be tested this time will probably fall to a low point.
After all, those who can pass the test will be given the title of Jinshi in the palace test twenty days later. This represents His Majesty's trust in the Ministry of Rites.
Shu Mingchen felt that he could not betray His Majesty's trust.
I would rather admit less than lower the standard.
At this moment, Shu Mingchen got another answer sheet. This answer sheet had five circles and signatures on the top of the head, which meant that he had been rated by five people.
But what surprised him was that there was an '×' in the first circle, but it was crossed out and a circle was redrawn below.
This means that the first reviewer originally thought that the answer sheet was only moderate, but after seeing it, he couldn't help giving it an excellent rating.
You must know that in most cases, the raters will not modify their own scoring results for the sake of face.
After all, after changing the results, this answer sheet must be re-evaluated by at least three other colleagues. If disputes arise, their efficiency will be greatly reduced.
Obviously, this answer sheet did not cause controversy at all. The five reviewers and the five circles were all very optimistic about this answer sheet.
Because it is Enke, the questions of this meeting are not difficult. The first question on this answer sheet is quite satisfactory. Although it involves industry, the rhetoric is not so gorgeous that it makes people's eyes shine.
However, the statement of this answer sheet is simple and sincere, but it washes away the bad mood that Shu Mingchen had just seen so many '×' answer sheets.
He looked at the second four books of this answer sheet, and couldn't help but want to applaud!
When the graduating scholar gives the question, it is progressive. The examiner said when he spoke about the detailed rules of the scoring paper. If the examinee notices the point of progressive and interlocking, it is excellent.
Shu Mingchen thought, this candidate is really good.
He continued to look down, and the third question of Sishuwen was much more difficult, but this article did not disappoint him, and its content still closely aligned with the first two articles.
With this kind of writing power, only one of the six full-excellent answer sheets on his left has achieved it.
Shu Mingchen originally thought that the article was prepared for Huiyuan, but he didn't expect that someone would come to compete now.
He felt a lot more relieved, wrote a few praiseworthy comments, and continued to look at the five scriptures.
Since then, Shu Mingchen hasn't moved the pen in his hand. He never imagined that someone could be so knowledgeable and talented!
After reading it, Shu Mingchen was in a great mood. He couldn't help drawing three circles in a row on the front of the scroll, holding the answer sheet in both hands, intending to present it to the examiner immediately.
The examiner sitting next to him caught a glimpse of this scene and became silently jealous. He is just a weak examiner who only has the right to draw a circle... I really envy Shu Mingchen.
This is not because the deputy examiner has the right to draw multiple circles. It stands to reason that each person can only draw one circle, but if the answer sheet is extremely brilliant, the deputy examiner can immediately present it to the main examiner.
In addition, this time is Enke, this answer sheet has been reviewed by the cabinet scholars, and there is still a chance to present it to Your Majesty.
Li Jin didn't know his answer sheet, no, there were eight circles on the transcript of his answer sheet.
In the final assessment of who is the Huiyuan, the chief examiner will carefully assess after seeing the number of circles.
Because those well-written answers will naturally be circulated back and forth by the raters, and it is not easy for everyone to pick out mistakes.
After the Cuju was over, the rest of the team were full of praise for Li Jin's performance.
"I almost thought we were going to lose, thanks to Xiuzhi."
"It's all my fault for the mistake I made just now, and the yellow team grabbed Ju."
"Let's not mention it, our cooperation is still good, the last kick of Xiuzhi is really admirable."
Li Jin smiled humbly, "In the end, I was lucky, and I performed exceptionally well when I was nervous."
Later, he declined everyone's invitation to drink, saying that he had brought his husband and children and had to take care of them.
"Xiu Zhi married?"
"You look eighteen or nineteen."
"How old is the child? Is it a boy or a girl, and there are two children in my family."
Li Jin: "..." He knew that everyone was just talking politely, and they dispersed after saying goodbye.
When he went back, the little bun was surrounded by two familiar faces.
Zhu Shan's family didn't know the identities of the two children, they just thought they were the skin children of the surrounding families, and they didn't ask any more questions when they saw Qin Muwen distribute cakes to them.
Mo Zixuan saw Li Jin out of the corner of his eye, and quickly stood up, clasped his fists and nodded, "Uncle Li."
Li Jin also nodded back and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a long time, you all have grown taller."
I had met Mo Erye in the bookstore before, and Li Jin also knew the attitude of the General's Mansion, that is, he recognized him as a junior brother, but in order not to affect his career, he did not announce the relationship.
Now that it's privately, if he pulls the distance between the two families, he will do something.
Therefore, Li Jin became more familiar with the attitude of the children in the general's house.
The fifth also saw Li Jin at this moment. He had cake residue on his lips, and a kite with a small bun in his hand. After standing up to greet Li Jin, he said, "Uncle, can I take him to fly a kite?"
Li Jin was silent for a while, they were all children after all, and they would have nothing to do with human traffickers.
The little bun saw his father's hesitation and said, "I'll play the kite for you, I won't go."
The fifth child: "...I-I didn't want to snatch your kite. I run fast and can fly the kite high for you to see."
In the end, Li Jin took a litter of children and found a place with less people, watching them play, and taking care of them when they stumbled.
After a while, Qin Muwen also came with a small mountain leopard.
Qin Muwen said, "Little Mountain Leopard is crying and looking for his brother."
Sure enough, the little mountain leopard stretched out his small arms and shouted, "Brother! Brother!"
Little Bun's eyes lit up, and he hurried to see his younger brother. He stood on tiptoe to look at the little mountain leopard in his father's arms.
He was very pleasantly surprised and said to Dad, "Dad, my younger brother will be called elder brother."
Finally not a monophonic 'brother'.
Little Mountain Leopard: "… "
Qin Muwen: "..."
In such a short time, without the little bun's 'obstruction', Mo Zixuan and the fifth one also flew the kite into the sky.
The wind was strong halfway up the mountain, and the kite swayed at first, and then rose steadily.
"Look, we're flying the kite into the sky!" The fifth child cheered and shouted, Mo Zixuan reeled and loosened the line, looking at his eyes as if he pretended not to know his brother.
Xiao Baozi's attention was drawn to him, he pointed at the kite, and said to his younger brother, "Look, kite."
Xiaoshan Leopard grabbed Xiaobaozi's hand, "Brother."
The kite flies very high. If a person can reach that height, the line of sight may be able to pass through the heavily guarded Dragon Boat Gate and reach the Golden Palace and the Imperial Study Room.
There, the aged emperor looked at the beautiful pavilion on his desk with a little admiration in his eyes.
And when he read the contents carefully, his appreciation also expanded step by step.
