Time flies, summer goes to autumn in a blink of an eye, the cold wind blows the yellow leaves, and the weather is getting worse and worse day by day.

Today's autumn test in Suzhou was held in Suzhou, and the children's tests in nearby counties were also combined in one place, and the chief examiner was Lian Daning, the prefect of Suzhou.

In the days leading up to the exam, it was spread all over the prefecture and county, saying that the reason why the prefect deigned to preside over the boys' exam was entirely for the sake of a special protégé he wanted to recruit.

This person is undoubtedly the case.

After Lian Daning knew, he didn't refute the rumors, a boy tried to have no oil and water to fish, and there was no glory to talk about, but he was not afraid that someone would complain to Shangfeng. Even if the above knows, they also understand that he is just a scholar and likes latecomers, but he is just a common Shilin Jiahua.

If it is a lifting examination, it is more solemn, generally selected by the Ministry of Rites, as the president of the provincial lifting examination, but also to report to the emperor for approval. Being such an examiner is not only a great place to be fished, but also an honor, and it can also be used to recruit protégés.

When the interests are great, there will be people who take risks, and the black-box operation will be exposed, and there will be many people who lose their heads.

As for the president of the Jinshi examination, it is generally held by the secretary of the Ministry of Rites himself, and no one is willing to give in to this kind of glory, and the final palace examination is needless to say, only the emperor himself serves as the president.

The Ming Dynasty was really a literati world, and the emphasis on literature and light on military force had reached the point of reaching the peak, and everything was absolutely opposed, and when the literati group went to decay, the Ming Dynasty would die.

A month before the exam, Lian Daning sent someone to supervise him every day, and he had to assign articles to him every day, and then personally corrected them with a red pen.

After this intensive training, I really figured out the trick of Baguwen, which is actually similar to the proposition composition routine in the college entrance examination, but the difficulty is higher.

There should be a set of strict rules. The most important one is to obscure the name, that is, to glue the name of the exam paper with paper, and when marking the paper, the examiner does not know whose paper it is, so as to prevent fraud. If someone makes a special mark on the paper, the exam paper is invalid and there is also a penalty.

The rules of the children's test are not too strict, and candidates do not need to be confused.

Moreover, after taking the exam, it is expected to take the first place, because the scoring and evaluation are all Lian Daning. After he handed in the paper, Lian Daning read it, wrote some praise, and immediately marked the first on the paper.

With this title, it can be regarded as a real debut. In the past, it was just a rumor, but there was a prodigy in Suzhou City who went on the right path of the imperial examination, and the rumor became a fact. Soon, not only did the news spread in Suzhou Prefecture and County, but even people in the provincial capital also paid attention to the matter.

After passing the examination, he went to the government to receive the clothes of Xiucai, which was regarded as officially stepping into the ranks of literati. From now on, when you see the prefect and the prefect, you can be even, and you don't have to kneel, which is the privilege of Xiucai. If a lawsuit is committed, and the government wants to try him, he must first appeal to the scholar in charge of a provincial literati, and then the scholar will deprive him of his talent and fame, and then he can be punished. Xiucai's many privileges are also quite interesting.

During the time of Ming Xianzong, there was a son of a rich family who served as a county lieutenant in a different place, similar to the police chief of later generations.

One day while he was cruising through the streets, he was suddenly startled by a man and almost fell off. The man was so angry that he made the man who had frightened his horse fall down on his knees and apologize.

This person is a showman, with average learning, because he is cowardly by nature, he is often bullied and used to it. When he saw that the county lieutenant was angry, he was very scared, forgot his identity as a Xiucai, knelt down according to his words, and only remembered after kneeling, raised his hand to make a statement and said, "I am Xiucai." ”

The horse, who had only startled the county lieutenant before, almost scared the county lieutenant to death as soon as his words came out. Forcing a showman to kneel in front of a public is a felony! The county lieutenant hurriedly dismounted and picked up this talent and made amends.

Xiucai was an honest man, and when he saw that the county lieutenant was kind to him, he didn't say anything and left in a hurry.

If this matter passed like this, it would have been just like this, but it happened to be seen by a few middle school shows. Although these people usually bullied this Xiucai, the county lieutenant forced Xiucai to kneel, which was a great disrespect to Confucianism and a serious crime.

So, after they went back, they gathered dozens of talents and jointly sued the county government. When the magistrate found out, he was also shocked, which had never happened since the founding of the country.

Don't look at Zhu Yuanzhang killing literati without blinking, he killed himself, and others can't. On the one hand, various laws and regulations to protect literati have been continuously introduced, and on the other hand, this kind of contradiction has almost run through Zhu Yuanzhang's life.

Besides, Nazhi County, after hearing the news, he hurriedly found the Xiucai and asked about the matter, this person said it honestly, and repeatedly said that he was to blame for the matter, not the county lieutenant, and he was not ready to appeal.

The facts are there, even if the parties do not make a statement, the yamen can't ignore it, not to mention that there are still a group of talents in the county ya, and there is no end. The magistrate had to secretly tell the county lieutenant that he was good at cooking, and he couldn't do anything about it.

The county lieutenant knew that he was in trouble, so he hurried to the Xiucai's house to give gifts to make amends, and then went to school to give gifts to those Xiucai, hoping to calm the incident. But the showmen did not do it and insisted on punishing him.

Later, the imperial history and the inspection envoy all intervened in the case, but fortunately, the Xiucai insisted that he was the first to blame the county lieutenant. At that time, the county lieutenant didn't know that he was a showman, and the so-called ignorant was not guilty.

When the matter got to this point, it was not good to mention the imperial history, and scolded the county lieutenant for insulting Sven, and he should be held accountable for a felony. According to the inspector and others, they have privately accepted bribes from the county lieutenant, and strongly persuaded Tixue Yushi to open up. scolded and scolded, and the imperial history was also accepted, so he simply borrowed a donkey to go downhill, discussed with the envoy and others, and sent the county lieutenant back to his hometown.

This is a great kindness, if it is reported to the imperial court, I am afraid that if you don't die, you will have to sit through the prison. Forcing a meritorious Xiucai to kneel is tantamount to contempt for the laws of the imperial court, and there are laws and regulations in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Dressed in court clothes and beheaded in the city, there was only one person in ancient Chinese history.

No further ado. After the list was posted, the family couldn't help but celebrate, mainly because there were too many guests who came to Daoxi, and they couldn't help but entertain them. At this time, Guo Zhong realized that all the guests were actually dating because of the situation, and he didn't even have a friend. Thinking of these, I can't help but feel a sigh of emotion in my heart. If he hadn't deliberately escaped, or even refused indifferently, with his medical skills, he should have befriended all over the world.

The son could not repeat his old path, which he had made up his mind since returning to Suzhou a few years ago, even if there was danger.

Needless to say, the Zhou family came to congratulate Wenjie's father in person. What is a little surprising is that the Nan family and the Yun family also sent heavy gifts, and the Yun Jintang couple each represented their own families.

Although Zhong Zhong couldn't tell whether these two people gave gifts this time, whether they took the opportunity to repay his favor for diagnosis and treatment, or came to spy on his privacy again, no matter what, people came to congratulate each other, so they had to greet each other with a smile and treat each other with courtesy.

The hall of the family was narrow, so I had to set up a colorful shed in the courtyard to feast guests.

At the banquet, Guo Zhong thanked him for his wine: "Xiao'er is just lucky to have a showman, how happy he is, but he has to thank you." ”

Father Zhou said with a smile: "You can't say that, this is the beginning of the virtuous nephew's development, the first place in Suzhou Mansion, a good sign, in the future, it will be three yuan in the future, and some people will eat this wine in the future." ”

Lianzhong Sanyuan is the most envied thing of the literati in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the so-called Sanyuan has nothing to do with the children's test, it refers to the first place Xie Yuan in the township test, the first place in the Jinshi examination, and the first champion of the palace test. This is the three elements.

But in fact, in the entire history of the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years, there was only one person who was even in the middle of the three yuan. When Ming Yingzong presided over the palace examination, he personally admitted the champion Shang Ke, who later served as the prime minister of Emperor Jing.

Even winning three yuan, this probability is so low that it is almost equivalent to the people of later generations, who only spent two yuan to buy a lottery ticket and won the jackpot of 100 million yuan.

At the beginning of the banquet, Guo Zhong raised his glass and said to Zhou's father: "This is just practicing the love of the husband and the ancestors, and bringing the child." Wenbin was also the first in Suzhou back then, right? ”

"Yes, it's still the main exam for adults, and the two of them will really be the same door in the future."

Zhou's father is open-minded, if a literati wants to achieve something, it is important to study hard, the so-called hard work, a harvest, but what height can be reached in the future is almost determined by talent. Life is eight feet high, and it is difficult to find one, and this life is talent.

Zhou's father believes that besides, this child is talented, and his future achievements are limitless, and he will invest early, and if he invests a lot, he will have a big return in the future. What he wants is nothing else, and when he is prosperous in the future, his two sons will have a solid backer. Especially the youngest son Wenjie, he needs someone to help him even more, although he has his brother, but it is always good to have one more person.

"And Wen Jie, I'm afraid I will be under the same door as them in the future." Yun Jintang said.

"He is like Wen Jie's own brother, and it doesn't matter if he is in the same family or not." Guo Zhong smiled.

"This is really the fate of the previous life, you said that the two of them have the same personality and preferences, and they are not the same, and they are like one person. Isn't this fate? Nan Qiaoyun had been paying attention to Guo Zhong's face before speaking.

"This is reasonable, people are just talking about fate." When Father Zhou heard this, he was even more happy.

"Somehow, when I saw Brother Guo, it was really like fate, very close. When I saw Dr. Guo again, this feeling was even stronger. It's a pity that the ancestral home of the divine doctor is Xiaoshan, if the ancestral home is in Suzhou, maybe the relationship between the two families in the last few lifetimes will be the same as the current situation with Wenbin Wenjie and them. ”

Zhong's heart sank, and his words were a bit explicit.

He smiled indifferently and said, "Fate is all cultivated, no matter in the past life or in this life. It is good to have it in the previous life, but it was not in the previous life, and it can be cultivated in this life, so there is no need to regret this. ”

His meaning is also very clear, whether it will be good or bad in the future depends on what they will do in the future, and the road will be walked out by themselves.

"That's, that's, it's still open-minded, it's just different from us people." Nan Qiaoyun praised it in vain and was silent.

Father Zhou was a little confused when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Are you two guessing riddles, or are you fighting Zen machines?" ”

"It's just casual talking, where is there any Zen mystery." Nan Qiaoyun said with a smile.

"Women just talk a lot." Yun Jintang said with a frown.

He didn't know what his wife was doing, but he felt that something was wrong with her, as if he was obsessed with something, and he kept biting and refusing to relax.

Zhong's heart was not easy, the dark clouds that were thrown to the edge of the sky by himself, seeing that they were fluttering, were coming back again.
