Chapter 220: Failed to pass the exam
Although they also disliked the Ming Dynasty, they disliked the Qing Dynasty even more.
They would not recognize an emperor from a foreign race who settled in the Central Plains.
They in the Central Plains should fight among themselves, and outsiders cannot interfere. Besides, no matter how powerful the Ming Dynasty is, it is still the emperor of the Han people. What the hell is the Qing Dynasty?
They can't stand it, they don't recognize it, it's impossible for them to recognize it!
(This is just what the emperors in the book think, not what the author himself thinks. The author wants to survive＜(ToT)＞)
"Senior Song Yingxing, when you were young, you and your brother Song Yingsheng studied in a private school run by your great uncle.
Because he was smart since childhood and had a photographic memory, he was very popular with teachers.
Photographic memory? Senior Song Yingxing, is this true?
Is it true that he has a photographic memory? "Little Li Wu stared at him with wide eyes, shocked, and asked if the story was true or not.
Oh my god, oh my god, if this is true, it's amazing.
Who doesn’t want a photographic memory?
Unlike her, it takes her dozens of times to memorize a four-line ancient poem.
His brain seemed to be rusted. He forgot what he saw as soon as he saw it. He was like someone with Alzheimer's disease and could not remember anything.
So I really envy people with good memory.
Seeing the little fairy like this, Song Yingxing smiled and said, "Little fairy, you misunderstood. I don't have a photographic memory. I just have a good memory. I can remember it after reading it two or three times."
Zu Chongzhi also nodded and said, "Young Master Song Yingxing's memory is indeed good. As we get older, we have to admit defeat."
"Senior Zu Chong, what are you talking about? You are not old yet, and your achievements are recognized," Song Yingxing responded, and the two began to compliment him.
Wang Zhenyi and Xiao Liwu looked at each other and didn't intend to interrupt.
"Little Immortal, please continue talking," the two people finally stopped talking.
Xiao Li Wu nodded and said, "After reading a lot of books, Senior Song Yingxing, you only like Zhang Zai more among the four great masters of the Song Dynasty, and you have accepted the materialistic view of nature from him.
Not only these, Senior Song Yingxing, you are also interested in astronomy, acoustics, agronomy, and technology manufacturing.
I have also read Li Shizhen's book "Compendium of Materia Medica".
In addition to these, he also likes to compose poetry and listen to music, and often socializes with classmates and encourages each other.
Senior Song Yingxing, your hobbies are so wide-ranging. I’m a little envious.
Do you guys have such a wide range of hobbies? How come you seem to know everything?" Little Li Wu asked curiously. It's fine that Senior Zu Chong knows a lot.
Senior Song Yingxing is the same. No, there are so many smart people in the world, what's wrong with having one more of her? What's wrong?
The three people couldn't help but laugh when they saw the little fairy's sad face.
Looking at the resentful look of the little fairy, he is so cute, with his puffy face that makes me want to poke him.
Many people in front of the sky curtain said that the little fairy really spoke out their thoughts, why can such a big guy know everything?
This is so enviable. Are all the people who go up to the sky curtain smart?
The big guys just think, isn’t this what should be done?
It’s impossible for a person to only know one thing in his life. He should know several things, right?
"We don't know everything, little immortal, we are just ordinary people," Zu Chongzhi said. He felt that he was just an ordinary person and didn't know much.
"What senior Zu Chong said is right. We are just ordinary people. Don't think too much, little immortal," Song Yingxing also echoed, and even Wang Zhenyi nodded. It was indeed the case.
Xiao Li Wu curled her lips. She didn’t believe it, not at all. They were all lying to her. They were obviously very powerful and big shots.
But since the big guys have coaxed her like this, she naturally can't care so much anymore and insist on getting tangled up in the end.
"You are right," Xiao Li Wu nodded.
Just listen to what the big guys say.
"In the forty-seventh year of the Wanli reign, you, Senior Song Yingxing, and your brother went to the provincial examination together.
At that time, among more than 29 candidates, you, -year-old Senior Song Yingxing, ranked third in the province.
This strength can be average, big man," Xiao Li Wu shouted, third in the province, isn't it amazing?
It’s already very impressive.
Song Yingxing chuckled, "It's just so-so."
"Senior Song Yingxing, please don't be so modest. You are clearly very powerful."
When the people in front of the sky curtain heard the little fairy praising Song Yingxing so much, they felt a little dissatisfied. They were obviously very powerful too, so why didn’t the little fairy praise them?
Then Song Yingxing is just okay.
"And Senior Song Yingxing, your brother ranked sixth, which is also very good. He is also a capable person. We are worthy of being brothers and both of you are big guys," Xiao Li Wu couldn't help but envy him.
Song Yingxing just chuckled. Well, it was just okay. It was not as exaggerated as the little immortal said.
“The success of the provincial examination greatly encouraged more Song brothers.
Later, Senior Song Yingxing, you and your brother went to the capital to take part in the imperial examination, but, alas, you failed."
Xiao Li Wu sighed, but it was also very impressive.
"Why are you sighing, little immortal? It's me who failed the exam," Song Yingxing looked at Xiao Liwu with a smile. He had already become indifferent to all these things.
If he cared about it before, then he didn’t care so much after being chosen by the immortal to come to the next life. He also knew that he would be famous for eternity, right?
"It's a pity for you, Senior Song Yingxing, and you took the exam several more times but failed.
In the last imperial examination of Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty, you and your brother Song Yingxing failed.
He took the exam again during the Tianqi and early Chongzhen years, but still failed.
So later on, Senior Song Yingxing, you became disappointed and gave up the idea of taking the imperial examination."
When Song Yingxing heard this, he couldn't believe it. Many people in Tianmu were dumbfounded. No, the little immortal said that the other party was a big shot, a powerful figure, but in the end, he couldn't even pass the imperial examination?
Really awesome?
However, many people have also argued that the imperial examination cannot reflect a person’s ability, right?
In short, the people in front of the tent started arguing, while most people just sat there and watched the fun.
The emperors did not care about these exams. They were more interested in knowing about Song Yingxing's book "The Exploitation of the Works of Nature". They didn't know when he wrote it. Could you share a little about it in the comments?
The little immortals said that the book recorded agriculture, handicrafts, etc., which was very important to them.
"Damn, none of them passed the exam?" Song Yingxing was also dumbfounded and a little frustrated.
"Youngster Song Yingxing, there are so many people like you, isn't it normal that you can't pass the exam?" Zu Chongzhi patted him on the shoulder. "And maybe you are not suitable for the imperial examination, right?"
Song Yingxing glanced at him and said, "I'm fine. I just can't believe it."
Wang Zhenyi also tried to comfort him, but Song Yingxing still hung his head.
"Senior Song Yingxing, don't be sad, let's drink," Xiao Li Wu said, raising his glass.
The three people couldn't help laughing. Seeing the appearance of the little fairy, they really didn't dare to let the other party drink too much alcohol. They always felt it was immoral because the other party now looked like a little bean.
