The Red Chamber: My Stunning Confidante with a Variety of Styles

Everyone looked at the prestige, but saw a figure walking in. He was extremely handsome, elegant and out of the dust, like a banished immortal.

It was Jia Jue.

Seeing him, everyone had different expressions, some mocking, some contempt, some jealous, and some envy.

Under the eyes of everyone, Jia Jue walked into the arena. He came to the person who spoke just now and threw a purse:
"1000 taels, I'll buy Jia Juesheng."

Everyone was startled and looked at him with surprised eyes. 1000 taels is not a small amount, especially since he dared to bet 1000 taels as soon as he dared.

The man was immediately stunned. He originally just wanted to make fun of Jia Jue, and by the way, to please Ruan Qing, where did he really want to sit on the throne.

But now Jia Jue has really appeared, and he has to bet, how dare he take it.

"This, this, 1000 taels, it's really..." He hesitated and wanted to refuse.

When everyone saw this, they said:
"Don't back off! He wants to give you money for free, so why don't you accept it?"

"That's right, do you think Senior Brother Ruan will lose to him?"

"You don't even want the free money, are you still a man?"

……

Amidst the voices of the crowd, the man's expression was full of nervousness: "You put it lightly, in case, in case he wins, I will pay you 10 taels of silver! Whoever dares to pick it up, pick it up."

Jia Jue's odds were 1000 per 10. If he won, the [-] taels would become [-] taels in an instant.

What is the concept of 10 taels of silver?Both Rongning and Ningfu are the Dukes of the state, and all their salaries, land rent collection, human filial piety, etc. are tied together, and the total income in a year is only so much, or even less.

This is an astronomical number for most people.

Many people looked at each other in blank dismay, 10 taels was indeed too much.

But at this moment, Ruan Qing got up and walked in front of him, took the purse, and said lightly to Jia Jue:
"I'll accept this round. If you win against me, I will give you 10 taels of silver."

coax!
As soon as these words came out, the audience shouted excitedly.

Ruan Qing actually took this bet!
"My God, Senior Brother Ruan actually took it, doesn't that mean that he will win?"

"Oh, if you want me to tell you, you are too timid, and the matter of giving away money for nothing, Senior Brother will naturally not refuse."

"Hey, don't you understand? Senior Brother Ruan's family is rich in Jiangnan, and he is not short of money. He took over this game because he just didn't want to lose his momentum."

"Haha, I want to see how Jia Jue lost the competition and lost the silver again."

"It's a pole, it's a pole, the heroes see the same thing. That scene must be very exciting."

……

In the midst of everyone's discussion, Jia Jue smiled lightly, bowed his hands to him, and said sincerely:

"In that case, I would like to thank Senior Brother Ruan Gao Yi."

Ruan Qing glanced at him and said indifferently: "A young man is frivolous. He should be prudent in his words and deeds in the future, read more and talk less, so as not to lose the honor of our Imperial College."

As soon as these words came out, many people laughed, and looked at Jia Jue with ridicule in their eyes. Ruan Qing took this opportunity to teach him a lesson.

Jia Jue didn't get angry when he heard the words, but just glanced at him lightly: "Tomorrow, please prepare the money tomorrow."

After saying that, he turned to leave.

Looking at his back, everyone showed disdain. Words like "outrageous", "arrogant", "ignorant" and "ridiculous" keep appearing.

There was a contemptuous smile on Ruan Qing's mouth, and he didn't care about preparing silver at all.

Could he lose?
……

Because of the main push of the "10 taels" gambling game, the competition between the two ignited the entire Imperial College with the momentum of a spark.

Even the most reclusive bookworms who "don't hear anything outside the window" were alarmed. The entire Guozijian, from the priest and wine minister to the student servants, all focused their attention on this matter.

In their unanimous expectation, the time soon came to the day of the competition.

The site of the competition was selected on the largest square in the Imperial College.

There are two sets of tables and chairs in the center of the square, and there are pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table. This is where Jia Jue and Ruan Qing take the exam.

In front of the table and chairs, there is a row of long desks. Here are the seats of Sun Yi, Chu Xun, Liu Yang and the nine learned men.

Jia Jue and Ruan Qing will complete the exam in front of their eyes.

They formed the core of today's competition, and outside the core, they were all open spaces, and the students of Guozijian could watch the competition between the two at will.

Of course, they were separated by some distance from Jia Jue and Ruan Qing, and what they said basically wouldn't interfere with the two of them.

In the morning, half an hour before the test, the square was already crowded with people.

They gathered together, discussing the upcoming competition and the 10 taels of silver bet in twos and threes.

Of course, they are basically optimistic about Ruan Qing. After all, he has been famous for a long time. He is a man of influence in Guozijian. Many doctors (the academic officials specializing in the teaching of classics) believe that Ruan Qing's level should be in the top two.

The so-called Erjia refers to the second-class jinshi.

After the palace exam, the final ranking of candidates will be made, which will be divided into three grades: first-class, second-class, and third-class.

The first one is that there are only three people, which is usually said: the champion, the second place, and the third flower.Then came the Second Class and Third Class Scholars.

The second-class jinshi is already a very rare honor.

In the sound of everyone's discussion, the time soon came to Chenshi.

Sun Yi, Chu Xun, and Liu Yang entered the square with nine Confucian scholars from the Imperial College.

"Meet the teachers!" All the students in the square bowed and saluted in a sincere tone.

Respecting teachers and respecting Taoism is the virtue of this era.

Sun Yi and others just came to the seat and sat down, and one person followed closely and came to the venue, it was Ruan Qing.

And the last one who came was Jia Jue.

Seeing Jia Jue's elegant appearance, everyone's eyes were mixed with various emotions, envy, jealousy, surprise, of course, most of them were ridicule and disdain.

When Ruan Qing and Sun Yi both came to their seats, Sun Yi stood up and spoke to everyone.

The meaning is probably that Ruan Qing and Jia Jue are both rare talents. They were unable to take the qualification examination for the township examination for some reason, so they need to record the bequest. The number of places for the bequest is limited.

I hope that Ruan Qing and Jia Jue can carry forward a fair and fair style, and test their style and attitude.

After the scene was finished, Sun Yi distributed the test papers to the two.

At the same time, the other end of the square also announced the exam questions to the crowd.

A group of students hurriedly gathered around and watched the exam questions.

But when they saw the exam questions, they all opened their eyes wide and their faces were stunned:
They knew every word on the test question, but why did they not know each other when they were arranged together to form the test question?
Is this really a test question and not a book from heaven?
