Chapter 356 Arrangement
According to the results of the previous investigation, Prince Xuande should really have a thought about Jiang Yun. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
It is understandable for him to ask for a concubine, but this is the fourth prince......
The fourth prince likes men, but everyone knows it, how could he suddenly fall in love with Jiang Yun?
After all, no matter how beautiful Jiang Wan looks, she is a woman after all, but she doesn't have the ability to straighten a crooked man?
The only possibility is that the four princes are purely disgusting the crown prince......
Thinking about this, Lu Shuo shook his head and smiled.
These two princes are really talents!
Lu Shuo laughed for a while, feeling bored, so he lowered the curtain and instructed the coachman: "...... Let's go!"
Whether it's good or not, it has nothing to do with him anyway, just listen to it.
The coachman couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw that Lu Shuo was still on the rise, but now that the clouds and rain had suddenly dispersed, he no longer asked about it.
But strange is strange, but the command cannot be disobeyed, he hurriedly answered the hello, and drove on.
The carriage sparkled and traveled quickly for a while before finally reaching the city gate. Therefore, it was not a few days before the start of the township examination, and the Beijing Division was the examination area of the entire Guannai Provincial Township Examination, so there were many people who entered Beijing to take the examination.
When Lu Shuo got down from the carriage, he saw a crowd of people at the city gate, and people dressed as scholars, either on foot, on horseback, or in a car, hurried to the city before nightfall.
These should all be students who are rushing to take the exam! They are also the people who will compete with Lu Shuo in the next ten years.
Outside the city, the sky is low, and the orange sky is blurred, with some romantic colors.
Lu Shuo waited for a while, only to see a team of green curtain carriages coming over one after another from a distance.
This team, Lu Shuo is very familiar with, it is the team that Taoshan Academy sends students from Guannei Dao to Beijing every year to catch the exam.
"Senior Brother Lu!"
Before Lu Shuo approached, the people in the car seemed to have discovered Lu Shuo and his party, lifted the curtain and waved their hands.
"Senior Brother Zhou, Senior Brother Zhang......"
Lu Shuo smiled and responded one by one.
Due to the urgency of time, some people did not get out of the carriage, but only greeted them in the carriage for a few words, and then rode into the city.
These are all students who came to take the exam together, and before they came to Beijing, they had already asked someone to rent a courtyard next to the Yan Academy, and now they are just waiting to live in.
When these people were gone, Qingquan and the coachman stepped forward to help carry Sun Zhe's salute into the carriage.
As for Zhou Mao, the Zhou family is also a well-known family in Beijing, and presumably the Zhou family will come to pick him up after a while, so there is really no need for Lu Shuo to worry about it.
Lu Shuo smiled and talked to the two.
“…… Brother Sun, the guarantor and your household registration certificate and the like, the white steward has sent someone to help you get it a few days ago, you just need to go to the ceremony room to register in person before the exam!"
Sun Zhe was originally registered in Hebei Province, and it stands to reason that the township test was changed back to Hebei Province.
However, thanks to the blessing of Emperor Taizu, because he attached great importance to the imperial examination, considering the convenience of the examination, he once stipulated in the regulations: Those who have official merit (children and above) only need to add two more endowments to take the cross-border examination.
Sun Zhe originally planned to go back to Hebei Province to take the exam, but Weizhou was not close to Hebei Province.
Lu Shuo considered that it was not easy for Sun Zhe to go back and forth, plus Sun Zhe had a good personality and knowledge, and he also had a relationship with the Lu Mansion, and it was easy to add a guarantor, so when he talked about it, Lu Shuo directly proposed this suggestion to him.
That's where we are today.
"I'm tired of my junior brother!"
Sun Zhe gave a slight salute, and there were no superfluous words, but the sincerity in his eyes was clearly visible.
Lu Shuo appreciated it in his heart, and didn't continue to talk about it, but asked Zhou Mao instead: "Senior Brother Zhou, what's the matter? There is still half a year before the exam, and it's still early, why did you come here at this time......
Speaking of which, he himself was shocked.
The matter with Sun Zhe was agreed upon before Lu Shuo returned to Beijing.
But Zhou Mao's trip was really sudden, just four days ago, when Lu Shuo was not mentally prepared, the academy suddenly handed over a letter, saying that Zhou Mao was also going to come over.
"Do you want to take the test again?"
Lu Shuo joked.
"What......"
Zhou Mao shook his head, knocked on Lu Shuo's head with a folding fan, and smiled helplessly: "I naturally don't want to come, but I can't help it...... At the urging of my family, my uncle's letters came one after another, saying that after the township examination, the examiner of next year's examination would be decided, saying that I would be admitted to the Beijing Division, and I would have a good touch of the examiner's preferences......"
I see.
Lu Shuo nodded clearly.
In the imperial examination, it is very important for candidates to find out the preferences and political leanings of the examiner.
This is especially true for the highest level of the exam.
Therefore, it is very normal for the Zhou family to let Zhou Mao enter the Beijing Division in advance.
It's just that thinking of Zhou Liangfu and what his father said, Lu Shuo's heart sank.
Zhou Liangfu's sale of the official mantle will not be able to cover up sooner or later, and the relationship between the second room of the Zhou family and Zhou Liangfu is so close, I am afraid that it will be implicated in the future.
Do you want to remind Zhou Mao?
Lu Shuo thought for a while, then shook his head in his heart again.
He naturally trusts Zhou Mao's character, this matter is not particularly secret, and even if he tells him, it doesn't have much to do with it.
It's just that Lu Shuo is just a lifter now, and he is still a lifter who has never started a family, and his ability to speak at home can be imagined, even if he talks to him, what can he do, can he still persuade Zhou Liangfu to change his mind?
No.
And not only can't, maybe it will cause Zhou Liangfu to be suspicious, and even Zhou Mao himself may be depressed because of this matter and can't concentrate on the exam.
Therefore, let's forget about this matter for the time being.
Zhou Liangfu and the prince's power is not a day or two, this matter is a slow effort, it is difficult to break out, otherwise the Jingshi families will not dare to take action, and it will be too late to talk to him after the test.
Thinking of this, Lu Shuo changed his smile again and replied: "I see, Mr. Min said the same recently, asking me to pay more attention to the examiner's books and political opinions in previous years...... They are all old men who know the rules of the examination room, and they can still hear this......"
Mr. Min is the Xixi of the Fan family, he is good at learning and is also funny, and Lu Shuo admires him a lot.
The three of them chatted, Qingquan and the coachman also packed up their things, and at this moment, there was a light "hoo" sound not far away, and it turned out to be the carriage of the Zhou family to pick up people.
At this time, the sun was setting, and the time was not early, so I was reluctant to give up, so I had to temporarily separate.
Lu Shuo took Sun Zhe back to the Lu Mansion, and the Yuan family had already arranged a place for Sun Zhe in the front yard, which was in a small courtyard not far from Tang Meixuan, with a quiet environment, and Sun Zhe was also full of gratitude and did not pick at all, so he quickly settled down.
A silent night passed.
Early the next morning, Lu Shuo took Sun Zhe to greet Luo, and in Luo's shocked eyes, they went to Zheng's house together.
