"Shou Gongzi, don't worry about these guards in general, these people are rigid and stupid......"

Seeing that the round middle-aged man was leading the way with a smile, and at the same time he didn't forget to complain about the two brainless guards, Zhang Shou said casually: "They are also duty, after all, Princess Yongping is a golden branch and jade leaf, no matter how careful you are, you can't blame them." Actually, the princess's post is too precious for outsiders to ask for, and it is a waste to give it to me. ”

Speaking of this, without waiting for the round middle-aged man to talk, he suddenly asked, "By the way, you haven't asked your official name and surname?"

"Ahem, I'm a eunuch in the palace, where it's expensive. The round middle-aged man heard the word nobleman, his eyes narrowed into a slit, if the tone just now was just respectful and courteous, then at this time it was a little more enthusiastic, "I'm just a little housekeeper running errands in front of Concubine Yu, Shou Gongzi just call me by my name Chang Ning." ”

The number of eunuchs in the Ming Palace today is not much compared to the Han, Tang and Song dynasties, and even less than the Ming Dynasty in history, with a total of no more than 300 people. Although most of the functions are assigned to female officials who must retire from the palace at forty, the celebrant has continued from the founding time of the Taizu to the present, and after studying in the inner study hall since childhood, he selected the best attendant emperor.

The rest is the stewardship brand of each palace.

But because of the small number of people, the palaces strictly prohibit the use of eunuchs, so for the people of the Ming Dynasty today, eunuchs are relatively rare, and ordinary officials basically can't see the shadow of these people, let alone the people, all kinds of demonization rumors.

However, Zhang Shou, who grew up in the countryside, didn't have the opportunity to inquire about these. Even if he got along with Zhu Ying and those noble disciples day and night before, no one would mention eunuchs, and it was even more impossible for him to ask about this with excessive curiosity.

Therefore, in line with the principle that this Ming Dynasty is not the Ming Dynasty, he doesn't know whether the big eunuch should be called his father-in-law this year, so he simply politely said: "It turned out to be Mr. Chang, I bothered you to run like this just now." ”

"No hassle, no hassle. Chang Ning smiled, as if he was very satisfied with Zhang Shou's title, and then explained, "Shou Gongzi doesn't have to worry, it's not that everyone who is invited to come will have to make a fuss, you are different from those ordinary scholars, you can sit and listen casually for a while, and judge." ”

At this time, he was already approaching the venue downstairs of Yuehua, Zhang Shou was accompanied by Chang Ning, which was already conspicuous, plus Deng Xiaodao and Qi Liang, who were also like followers behind him, and Ah Liu, who had a calm face, naturally many people looked at him.

The scholars who were fortunate enough to be invited here naturally had the confidence that they would once become famous and known to the world, and they were not allowed to bring their retinues, even if some people belonged to the same book society and poetry society, they would definitely not want to be vassals on this occasion. Therefore, some people inevitably feel that the three people behind Zhang Shou are particularly dazzling.

When Chang Ning's words are heard clearly, there will inevitably be people who know each other in twos and threes.

It was actually invited to judge, could it be that this is a newly rising selector? No, looking at the age of that young man, he doesn't look like a selector who can judge the art and literature of scholars? So, which is the world-famous selector?

But is there such a family in the capital where even Princess Yongping needs to pay tribute to her children?

Or which Confucian family?

Could it be that Princess Yongping, who is known as only paying attention to talent and not appearance, is actually ...... Look at the face?

Zhang Shou only thought that those eyes that were like pins and needles did not exist at all, and said with a smile: "I don't know anything about Shiwen, and I never planned to take the academic field to make a name for myself, but I, a student, have just passed the county examination, which is better than my teacher." Mr. Lao Chang told Princess Yongping for me, I only brought my eyes and ears today, and I won't mention the word judgment again. ”

Unexpectedly, Zhang Shou insisted again that he didn't understand Shiwen, and Qi Liang couldn't help but muttered to himself. The next moment, he saw that the round manager Chang in front of him suddenly turned around and glanced at himself, and even smiled and nodded.

He couldn't help but be a little overwhelmed, and when Chang Ning turned around, he realized that Zhang Shou had never specifically pointed out to people who he was, Deng Xiaodao and Ah Liu, and how could this Chang manager tell his own?

However, the next moment, he didn't have time to think about this, because Zhang Shou's voice was not small, and people from all directions heard it, and the gaze that shot over him for a while was suddenly like substance, and many of them were focused on him, some of which were clearly malicious.

Qi Liang, who had experienced such a big scene for the first time, suddenly felt numb in his scalp, until Deng Xiaodao on the side muttered extremely calmly: "What are you afraid of, you just think those guys are clay carvings and wood sculptures!"

Seeing Qi Liang stunned, Deng Xiaodao smiled and said: "I think that when I was picked up by Wang Fu Yin and Ge Taishi successively, and then everyone in the palace looked at me like this, I was very scared at first, but I got used to it after coming and going, and it was not the same thing." These guys are just spreading bad words at best, can they still bite you?"

"But I took the seventh place in the government exam, isn't there already anyone criticizing it?"

"What's that, the sky is falling, and there is a tall person like Wang Fu Yin on top!"

When Zhang Shou heard that the first two boys began to talk nonsense, he couldn't help but be angry and funny. But when he found that Qi Liang, who was still stiff at the beginning, his whole body relaxed, and he could only secretly sigh that Deng Xiaodu, who was stupid before, had become slippery and resilient after he arrived at the mansion.

However, seeing that he had just clearly refused, Chang Ning refused to give a clear reply. At that moment, he stopped and said lightly: "If Manager Chang is unwilling, then I can only let Ah Liu ask to see Mrs. Zhao Guotai." For me, the ten books of the scriptures are considered to be a little general, and the history of the scriptures can only be regarded as rough at best. ”

"It turns out that Zhang Langjun, a famous disciple of Gemen, will also be afraid of laughing at the Fang family. In that case, if you teach students who are going to take the exam, aren't you afraid of misleading people's children?"

Hearing this sudden sarcasm, Zhang Shou didn't even raise his eyes, let alone follow the prestige. He smiled at Qi Liang behind him without looking back: "Xiao Qi, listen, people think that you have been delayed by me! Do you want to change to a famous teacher? In this way, maybe no one will hold on to your ranking in the house test when you turn around." ”

Qi Liang was not as calm as Zhang Shou, he looked at the person who spoke, and saw that it was a middle-aged man with a mouse beard, and his eyes were still full of arrogance when he looked at him at this time, and he was angry and said without thinking: "A teacher for one day, a father for life." If it weren't for Mr. Xiao, I wouldn't have been able to continue studying, I wouldn't even be able to live my life, and I would have to say that I would be misguided...... Hmph!"

I don't know if it was because of Deng Xiaodu's words before, or because of Zhang Shou's jokes, Qi Liang at this moment actually regarded the large number of people in front of him as the children of Guijie who were used to being scolded by himself in Cuiyun's room!

At that moment, Qi Liang, who had been accustomed to being a senior brother for several days, held his head high and said: "If you want to say that you are misleading people's children, my father didn't know how many anthologies of Shiwen he had read back then, but he still had to lose his name in every exam.

Speaking of which, Zhang Shou explained to him the reason why Ge Yong gave him a book list in the first place, which clearly appeared in his mind, so that when he retold it, he unconsciously brought out Zhang Shou's earnest style.

It's just that he instinctively used the usual opening in Cuiyun in the previous days: "Ancestor Ge said......"

"It is better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles. If you can't only read books, you have to pick good books to read. It is better to read 100,000 volumes of anthologies of current literature, than to read 100 volumes of famous articles, and to read 10 volumes of scriptures and histories! Every day you take the texts of the current era as if they were treasures and study and learn, that is not called reading, that is called Lu beetle!"

Zhang Shou couldn't help but cry and laugh when he saw Qi Liang showing the momentum of a senior brother at this moment.

Good you Qi Liang, you actually used my words to directly fire the map cannon, and it was also buckled on Ge Yong's head, if you don't learn from you, learn from me if you are bad!

But that's right, it's like studying an excellent selection of essays every day in the future life, and studying it to the point of being proud and going crazy, so that you can write a truly peerless essay and become a writer...... That's weird!
