Chapter 153 Township Examination
Fu Dahai didn't dare to delay, so he secretly went to see Fuguo Gong that day, and then euphemistically told Fuguo Gong about the emperor's thoughts. Fu Guogong's face twitched vigorously when he heard this, Xu Youran is a girl, this really makes the emperor want to get back to be a colt, what can I do?
After Fu Dahai left, Fu Guogong thought about it for a while, and felt that it was still necessary to let Xu Youran go to participate in the township test, this was the emperor's idea, if it disobeyed the holy will, there would be no good fruit to eat. Go to go, but you must not do well in the test, the worst the better, so Fu Guogong wrote a letter to Xu Tai, in addition to telling Xu Tai to let him send Xu Youran to the township for the test, he also specially instructed that Xu Youran must be made very bad, and he must not do well.
Xu Tai was at work this day, and inexplicably received this letter sent by the Auxiliary State Minister, Xu Tai really didn't know why he wanted to take the township test, and he didn't let him do well in the exam, just the level of the little illiterate at home, if he wanted to do well, he needed to be specially instructed to do well!
However, no matter what Fu Guogong was trying to smoke this wind for, Xu Tai still obediently sent Xu Youran to participate in the township test, Xu Youran didn't know a single big word, and she only needed her to play normally, so Xu Tai didn't even arrange it, and even he and Li didn't take it seriously at all.
Originally, everything was very simple, but the bad thing was on the big eunuch Fu Dahai, who spread the word. Fu Dahai originally wanted to go back to the palace after informing Fu Guogong, but he happened to meet his nephew Fu Liancheng on the way.
It is impossible for a eunuch to have children in his life, so many eunuchs accept a godson, or are very good to their own children and nephews, in order to have a care when they are old, and they will also have an incense offering after a hundred years, and someone will add a handful of soil to the grave.
Fu Dahai took care of this nephew very much, and even planned for him as his own son, the two of them hadn't seen each other for a long time, Fu Liancheng had just become a parent, so Fu Liancheng had to ask Fu Dahai to go to the house to sit down, let his newly married daughter-in-law cook a few dishes, and the two of them drank some wine.
Fu Liancheng became a family, Fu Dahai was also happy, seeing that the time was still early, so he readily agreed, after thirty years of wine, Fu Dahai also drank a little too much, so he casually said what he did out of the palace today, and secretly said that the little master of the Xu family is a candidate for the horse, and he can't run.
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional, Fu Dahai and Fu Liancheng didn't take it seriously, but Fu Liancheng's daughter-in-law went to her heart.
Fu Liancheng's daughter-in-law is named Zhang, and Zhang's maiden brother Zhang Yu just took the same jinshi exam this year, and coincidentally, Zhang Yu happened to be one of the invigilators of the township exam this year. Although Fu Dahai is a popular person next to the emperor, no matter how popular he is, he is just a eunuch and a decent minion. But in Zhang's eyes, whether it is the Guogong Mansion or the princess's concubine or something, it is all the eldest nobles, not to mention that everyone knows that the third princess is the emperor's heart, the only princess of the queen, and the only sibling sister of the prince.
Zhang packed up and secretly went back to her parents' house that night, and when she said this to her brother Zhang Yu, Zhang Yu was also moved.
Zhang Yu is a fellow jinshi, with the jinshi and jinshi is very different, in this era, the identity of the same jinshi is the same as Mrs. Ru, Mrs. Ru is a relatively high status of the concubine, but Mrs. Ru is no matter how high the status is not a lady, in the final analysis, it is a concubine. And the status of Tong Jinshi in Jinshi is equivalent to a concubine, not to mention that there is no confidence in speaking out, even the future prospects are very limited.
Zhang Yu felt that this was a good opportunity to come to this time, as long as he took more care of Xu Youran during the exam, then Xu Youran would not be able to get his favor in the future, even if he didn't appreciate it, it would be good to be familiar.
Zhang Yu on this side made up his mind to fight and give Xu Youran a good ranking, while Xu Tai on the other side felt very leisurely that as long as his "son" played normally, he would be fine.
Xu Youran had the experience of taking an exam, so when Xu Tai told her that he was going to send her to the township test, she didn't panic at all.
"Dad, last time my mother asked me to take the exam, but I gave it to a pony, what did you give it this time?" After listening to Xu Tai's words, Xu Youran asked Xu Tai with a shy bun face and a smile.
"You kid, just let you take a test and get benefits!" Xu Tai picked up Xu Youran, rubbed Xu Youran's little face with the beard on his chin and smiled.
Xu Youran was giggled by Xu Tai, and after the two of them were crazy for a while, Xu Tai smiled and said, "Okay, don't let you go in vain, your mother will give you a pony, how about your father teach you martial arts?"
Before, Xu Tai only taught Xu Youran some simple punches and kicks, but it was just kung fu to strengthen the body. Originally, Xu Tai also thought that Xu Youran was a girl, and it was not good to learn those kung fu, coupled with Li's strong opposition, Xu Tai did not teach. But not learning fists and feet does not prevent Xu Youran from being naughty at all, and this little guy's ability to cause trouble is getting higher and higher, especially these few times, Xu Tai is afraid every time. Now that I think about it, since I can't control Xu Youran and let her be obedient, it is better to teach some self-defense skills, and it will be safer in the future.
Hearing that Xu Tai was going to teach her kung fu, Xu Youran was suddenly very happy, the exam is really the best thing in the world, as long as you sit obediently for a while, you can get so many benefits, no wonder everyone wants to take the top prize!
This deal was very cost-effective, so on the day of the township test, Xu Youran was happily sent to the examination room of the township test.
Zhang Yu used all his connections to be assigned to Xu Youran's examination room, and as soon as he entered the venue, he looked everywhere, and then saw the youngest child in the city at a glance - Xu Youran.
Zhang Yu was so excited, you must know that in order to be able to invigilate Xu Youran, he spent a lot of money and walked through the back door to do it, Xu Youran is his future nobleman, how could he not serve well.
There was still a while before leaving the exam, Zhang Yu hurriedly poured a cup of tea and took some snacks and sent them to Xu Youran, he said with a smile on his face, "Little boy, it will take a long time for the exam to end, this snack is for you, you can eat some mats when you are hungry." ”
Xu Youran looked up and saw that this uncle had not seen it, so he thought that Xu Tai had arranged to take care of her, Xu Youran's mouth had always been sweet, she smiled like a sunflower, and said sweetly to Zhang Yu, "Thank you, uncle, you are so good, uncle, the dim sum made by my grandmother Qian is also delicious, and I will invite you to eat dim sum when you come to my house another day." ”
