"Now that you have won the first place and are the leader of Jinkewu, you may have other plans next."

Sun Shouren had a smile on his face, and he was in a good mood when he learned that Chen Mo had won the first place.

Chen Mo is his adopted son, and he recommended him for this exam. His being able to take the first place is also an honor to his face.

Although this is partly due to his own reasons, it is undeniable that Chen Mo himself is strong enough to come out on top.

"My child wants to wait for another two years and then take the Juren Examination." Chen Mo thought for a moment before answering.

With the strength he has shown now, the advantage in taking the Juren Examination is not very great.

One thousand two hundred kilograms of strength is considered small in the scholar examination, and there may be none in the government examination.

But in the national examination, it can only be regarded as outstanding, and it is definitely not that rare.

Because those who take the Juren Examination include not only the new talents in this subject, but also the old talents who have accumulated experience over the years.

Unless Chen Mo doesn't make any cover-ups and fully unleashes his own strength, then he can gain the same advantages as he does now in terms of strength and skills.

Even so, he may not be able to pass the examination, because his shortcomings are too short, and the advantages he currently possesses cannot make up for these shortcomings.

He had no choice but to learn several skills required for the imperial examination for only half a year. Among them, riding strategy could only be practiced for a few months at most.

No matter how talented he is, he can never compare to those old talents who have studied for more than ten or twenty years.

Instead of continuing to waste time taking the exam, it is better to settle down for two years and wait until two years later to be fully prepared before taking the exam.

"Yeah. Yes, with your strength and skills, it is indeed difficult to pass the exam if you rush to take it now.

Practice steadily for two years and then go out and use your talent to make the most of it. Maybe you can get admitted to Jinshi. "Sun Shouren nodded lightly and made a comment.

Among the many children who came to take the exam, Chen Mo's riding strategy and other items could only be considered to be at the middle level.

If I go to take the Juren exam again, I have a chance of passing the exam, but it is very slim.

It would be better to train steadily for another two years. Anyway, at his age, he will still be in his prime in another two years.

At that time, if you work hard, you may be able to directly win the title of Jinshi.

Of course, he said this specifically to motivate Chen Mo. It is not so easy to pass the Jinshi exam.

Only fifty people were admitted in three years. Even if Chen Mo had some talent, it would not be easy to pass.

"My child understands." Chen Mo nodded in agreement, and Sun Shouren continued to explain.

"Since the three of you have now obtained the title of scholar, Xia Wuqi, the examiner of this subject, will be your tutor. I have prepared gifts for you in advance. You can just bring your gifts and go visit him."

This is a long-standing rule. After candidates obtain merit, they must bring gifts to visit their master.

It doesn't matter how expensive the gift is, the important thing is to get it, otherwise it will be seen as rude.

"Understood, I will call them to go together." Chen Mo bowed his hands and turned around to exit the study.

After calling Xu Dabao and Sun Li, they asked the housekeeper for the gifts they had prepared. The three of them walked straight to the Xia Mansion.

The gate of the Xia Mansion was wide open, and from time to time Wu scholars came to visit with gifts. Seeing Chen Mo and others coming, many scholars greeted them with a smile, mainly to greet Chen Mo, the leader of this department, with a smile.

Chen Mo didn't remember them, but they were quite impressed by Chen Mo, a rare military leader.

Since they took the imperial examination together, they were in the same year. Chen Mo had General Sun as his adoptive father. He was very talented and would definitely achieve something in the future.

Now that you are familiar with him, that is definitely true. For those who are more resourceful and flexible, they are thinking about establishing a relationship with Chen Mo first, and then letting him establish a relationship with General Sun. Maybe they can get along first without waiting for the imperial examination. military attache position.

Don't reach out to hit the smiling person. These people of the same age have such enthusiastic attitudes. It is impossible for Chen Mo to be cold-faced and respond to everyone with a smile.

Walking all the way into Xia Mansion, he was led into the main hall by the servants.

"Disciple pays homage to the teacher." Chen Mo and others bowed down and saluted. As for the gifts, they had already been taken away by the servants.

Xia Wuqi is their teacher. According to the rules, just call him teacher. Of course, some shameless people will call him mentor.

Xia Wuqi ordered people to serve tea, encouraged the three of them a few words, chatted some gossip, and asked a few people to say hello to General Sun on his behalf, saying that if he had the opportunity, he would definitely visit him in person.

After chatting for a while, Chen Mo and others got up to say goodbye and walked out of Xia Residence.

"Brother Chen, do you still remember me?" came a loud shout.

Chen Mo looked around and saw Wu Kai walking towards him in brocade clothes with a spring breeze on his face. He walked up to him and bowed his hands in greetings.

"Brother Wu." Chen Mo returned the salute with a flash of doubt in his eyes.

They have never seen each other since they defeated each other before the fight. Why is it that the other party is so enthusiastic towards me when they meet today.

"Haha, I knew that brother would still remember me." Wu Kai looked very happy.

Although there are some dandies in the family, they are not many in number.

The reason is simple, because if there are too many dandy children in one generation, then a family will decline uncontrollably, and within two or three generations, the family will disappear.

And Wu Kai's ability to practice martial arts like this shows that he is by no means a waste who just eats and waits to die.

"Since my brother and I are of the same age, it's time to get acquainted with each other. I'm going to host a banquet in Dongqi Tower. I wonder if my brother will appreciate it."

Wu Kai's attitude was quite sincere and he always regarded Chen Mo as his elder brother in his words.

He was young and full of ambition, quite proud, and felt that he would definitely come out on top in this examination.

However, Chen Mo broke out halfway and defeated him easily. Although he was proud, he was by no means a person who couldn't afford to lose.

Since Chen Mo could defeat him, he would be convinced by Chen Mo.

"Okay." Chen Mo did not refuse this. He was invited in the same year, so it was not a big deal to have a meal.

Moreover, he could also guess that it was said that Wu Kailai invited him to this meal, but in fact it was probably Wu Kai's family elders who asked him to invite him.

As for the purpose, most of them want to find an official position for Wu Kai or other people with martial arts reputation in their family, and want to help make connections.

Of course you can go through this matter yourself, but whether it can be done depends on the sincerity of their offer and the attitude of your adoptive father.

"Brother, please wait for me for a moment. I'll go visit Master Xia first!" After hearing Chen Mo's promise, Wu Kai seemed to be relieved and hurriedly walked into Xia Mansion carrying the gift.

Not long after, he hurried out again, pulling Chen Mo straight to Dongqi Tower.

Xu Dabao and Sun Li left with Chen Mo.

Dong Qi Tower can be said to be the most luxurious restaurant in the entire Xingyuan City and even the entire Xingyuan Prefecture.

The gatehouse has three floors. The first floor is the hall, and the second and third floors are independent boxes.

Wu Kai had already made a reservation here. After giving his name, a waiter would show him the way.

Walking into a private room on the third floor called Chunyu Pavilion, a middle-aged man in his thirties was already seated inside.

"Uncle." Wu Kai bowed his hands and saluted.

"I'm Wu Ming. I'm Xiaokai's clan uncle. Who are these?" Wu Ming stood up and looked at Chen Mo and the others.

The few people immediately exchanged names, Wu Ming's smile became even brighter, and he immediately ordered the waiter to pass on the food and wine.

All kinds of delicacies, animals and birds were served on the table one by one. It must be said that the chefs in Dongqi Building are indeed quite good at their craftsmanship.

Chen Mo also had the opportunity to feast on his appetite. All kinds of vegetables were quickly swallowed by him, digested and absorbed, and turned into his own Qi and blood.

It was normal for Wu Ren to eat, but Wu Ming and Wu Kai were still a little shocked when they saw Chen Mo's appetite for the first time.

Wu Kai finally realized how big the gap was between himself and Chen Mo. For a martial artist, being able to eat means being able to fight.

Chen Mobi can eat a lot more than himself, and the strength gap between the two is not even a tiny bit. No wonder he lost so completely that day.

When the cups and plates on the table were in a mess and everyone was tipsy, Wu Ming waved his hand and dismissed the waiter who was waiting on the side.

Chen Mo also slowly stopped his chopsticks. He knew that Wu Ming would talk about something more important next.
