Zhou Yuan. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Dong Qinghe came this time, it was ordered by Han Zhen, Master Zhou's daughter Zhou Yue and Han Zhen are both talented women of a generation, the two know each other, today is actually Zhou Yue's birthday, Han Zhen asked Dong Qinghe to incense her.
This is on the surface, and another reason is that there is no shortage of all-round talents in civil and military affairs in Master Zhou, and their character is also good, Han Zhen hopes that Dong Qinghe will take a fancy to anyone if he can.
Other people's daughters are all sixteen years old, and her daughter will be eighteen soon, and there is no sign of half a point.
It takes at least two or three months from the realization of the marriage, and it takes more than half a year from the marriage to the marriage, that is, the daughter has to be nineteen to get married.
Except for those who are about to marry and their father or mother dies, who will delay until the age of nineteen.
Among Master Zhou's personal disciples, Dong Qingdu is the youngest, and the rest of the disciples have already married.
Here, there are some outer disciples, who are still young, and most of them are still going to die.
Spring is in February, and now, it's December, just over a month, and there is a New Year in the middle.
But most of the people who went out here from Master Zhou could pass the exam, and it was not that there were no ones who didn't pass the exam, and they were all temporarily stuffed by acquaintances.
This time, Dong Qinghe also brought a lot of a complete set of the four treasures of the study, and everyone gave a set, of course, it was actually Dong Qingdu who sent it.
"I heard that some of the good articles from previous years compiled this year are particularly thick. ”
Dong Qinghe asked Master Zhou about this matter, her mother and brother were both literati, and it was not surprising that they cared about this.
"Yes, those students who have been admitted to the Jinshi in the past do not hide their secrets, which is a blessing for the country. ”
This is the truth, Master Zhou is actually happy to see that literati do not hide their secrets, after all, scholars should be generous and upright.
Dong Qinghe smiled, this is because he didn't take the imperial examination last time, and he didn't earn the money last time.
Moreover, the last imperial examination was six years ago, and it was enough for many people to accept their fate, they can't get out of the way, and their livelihood is not so easy, why not take this opportunity to earn more money and become famous, maybe they can still be favored by some big man in Taijing City for the articles he wrote.
There are too many officials in the Xia Kingdom, and the big people are tilting against each other, arranging their own people to take the position, and adding seats if there is no position, especially in the local area, far from the sight of other big people in the court.
Just like in the county, there are some wealthy counties, not only one county order, one county commander, one master, and one chief catcher, they have two counties and two masters.
"Do you have that kind of privacy? Dong Qinghe asked him with a smile, this kind of book is issued by the people of the Ministry of Rites, in addition to this kind of circulation on the market, there will be a more detailed one, which will be specially handed over to the emperor and the princes and grandchildren who want to participate.
This kind of thing is absolutely private because it can't see the light, and the Dong family will not expose some power because of this thing, after all, their family doesn't take this road.
Dong Qinghe wants, and he can only find him, although Master Zhou is not in the court, but there are many of his friends and disciples in the Hanlin Academy, and even the emperor almost worshipped him as a teacher, he wants it, it is a matter of one sentence.
But because his disciples also wanted to participate, everyone thought that with his high spirits, he would not want this thing.
"What do you want this thing for?"
The things that can be bought with a little relationship on the market are indeed sent by the Ministry of Rites to find those Jinshi and Jinshi, give silver, and buy them.
However, the imperial examination is in charge of the Ministry of Rites, and the examination papers of the imperial examination must be available to the Ministry of Rites, and they are completely sealed in order to show fairness.
But at the last time, the test papers are often disassembled, copied one by one, and handed over to the emperor and the princes and grandchildren who need it.
Dong Qinghe knew that Master Zhou would have a set of this kind of thing, because Zhou Yue liked it before, and Master Zhou would have it every time.
Moreover, it is customary that before this imperial examination, often those who have won it will be returned to the Ministry of Rites and destroyed together, after all, it is dishonorable, and no one is allowed to copy it, and all that can be obtained are people whose status is too high to be higher, and no one makes small moves.
"I have a copy in my study, and since you know this thing, you should know the rules, but you must send it back in time. ”
"You can rest assured. ”
Master Zhou nodded when he heard this, his eyes were a little deep, what was this thing going to do, he probably knew that this world was going to be chaotic again.
According to Dong Qingdu's relationship, the people here are also Dong Qinghe's senior brothers and younger brothers, and the gentleman is frank, not to mention Master Zhou, there are not too many rules and regulations.
"Senior sister is feeling better. ”
This is a child of a family in Taijing City, and he can be regarded as a world friend.
"It's much better, thank you senior brother for your concern, thanks to the sister of the Medicine King Valley. ”
"Is it the Medicine Bodhisattva?" asked someone else next to him, all of whom knew about the events of the previous day.
"Yes. Dong Qinghe smiled, not afraid to praise himself more.
"It's amazing, yes. The people next to him all agreed, and when they talked about the Queen Mother and the Sun family, the Medicine Bodhisattva was indeed the best medical skill of the younger generation.
Dong Qinghe glanced over, and there was only one person sitting next to his brother, looking at himself with interest, smiling without saying a word.
Who this man is, as if he knows something.
This is Dong Qingdu's best senior brother, who comes out to play on weekdays, except for Chu Han, he is basically with him.
He remembered that when he went out, he would bring things to the women in the house, after all, they didn't often go out of the house.
Dong Qingdu didn't bring anything for his sister, but didn't bring those pastries and duck meat that were about to be eaten, and those brought at most one to Han Zhen.
The ones that will be brought to Dong Qinghe are all books, wooden things, etc., which can be kept for a long time.
It seems that Dong Qinghe can't eat, but only eats medicinal herbs.
This girl of the Dong family, except for her yellow face and smaller figure, looks like she has been sick for more than ten years.
Dong Qingdu turned his head and looked at his friend dissatisfied: "Hemin, what are you doing." ”
As an elder brother, he resisted anyone who had thoughts about his sister, even if it was a friend, and now he was very unhappy when he looked at Luo Chen.
"No, didn't I see that my sister looked a little similar to you. ”
No matter what, the Dong family has a good relationship with him, and he will only defend the Dong family.
Dong Qingdu looked at him suspiciously, turned around, didn't speak again, and believed him for the time being.
Den.
Even Dong Qingdu didn't know that the master had this thing, and after Dong Qinghe got it, he couldn't wait to turn the last few pages.
The last few pages are often the most important, and those that are not available on the market, such as champions, lists, and tanhua.
"Really well written. Dong Qinghe nodded and handed it to Qiu Wei next to her and asked her to take a look.
Here just the two of them came in, and the others were outside, after all, it was a study room, and in the past, unless Master Zhou was accompanied, other disciples could not come in alone.
The people of Zhou Yuan also have a deeper understanding, the people of the Dong family are really different from the Zhou family. Miss Dong's treatment can't even be enjoyed by the son-in-law of the Zhou family.
Qiu Wei only had a cursory look at the last article, "It's so well written, I'm ashamed." ”
What she usually writes is not this kind of policy and argumentative thing, and there is no overall situation and organization without this.
"That's why I got it. ”
Dong Qinghe took the book and left the study, this is a treasure.
Not far outside, Wang Chang was waiting there, probably wanting to see Dong Qinghe.
"Miss Dong. ”
Sure enough, Wang Chang saluted her.
"You're welcome, you also go out with your brother, just call me junior sister. ”
"Nope. Wang Chang lowered his head: "Chang Neng has today, it was all given by the eldest lady, and it will be unforgettable for a lifetime." ”
"This is also because you have the ability to seize this opportunity, and if you have the opportunity in the future, you can help people like you and help each other, which will be repaid. ”
Even if Dong Qinghe still hopes that he will remember the Dong family's love, he can't say it directly.
Wang Chang smiled, as if he suddenly understood: "I must remember the words of the eldest lady today, and in the future, I am willing to dedicate my strength to the people." ”
Dong Qinghe was also very satisfied with this attitude, and he was quite a good person.
He Min has a high status and a thick skin, and he is also able to hold down Master Zhou in Zhou Yuan, so he didn't take advantage of Dong Qinghe to take Qiu Wei and them to see the garden.
"Senior sister. "Wearing a cloak, He Min is tall, the jade tree is in the wind, and he has a spring breeze smile on his face.
"And Senior Brother. "Dong Qinghe knows some of his brother's friends, but he hasn't seen them.
"And Childe. The others could not afford not to see it and salute him.
"You're welcome, it's more polite. "He Min has no shelf, he has a good temperament, although he is smart, but he always gives people a feeling of being out of tune, not at all like Master Zhou, who was taught by a great Confucian.
"After so many years, I haven't seen my junior sister, this time I have a chance, why don't I take my junior sister for a good visit. ”
"Senior brother is polite, Zhou Yuan has been here before, and he still remembers some of it, so he doesn't bother senior brother. ”
In the past, when Zhou Yue came back to visit relatives, Han Zhen took her once.
"Senior sister, you're welcome. "The more He Min looks at her, the more interesting it becomes.
"Brother Dong Shi seemed to have said that he was going to come over soon. Qiu Wei smiled and spoke.
"yes, Qingdu is coming over. The smile on Hemin's face froze, at this time, Qingdu usually discussed knowledge with Master Zhou, but the girl came, and it was okay to delay for a day or two.
"Since the junior sister doesn't need it, it's okay, but the master still left homework, and I still have homework, so I went first. ”
He Min made an excuse for himself and prepared to leave.
"Don't delay Senior Brother, Senior Brother go slowly, Grandpa Zhou is strict, Senior Brother must not make mistakes. ”
"Yes. He Min smiled and nodded, turned around and flashed behind the tall bushes.
Dong Qinghe couldn't cry or laugh a little, and he glanced at Qiu Wei Pei Nian and laughed together.
******
After returning from Zhou Yuan, Wu Hai was waiting for Dong Qinghe in the meditation building.
"Come back, show me. ”
These are all articles from Wuhai's later imperial examination, and the most sought after articles they admired at that time were Wuhai's.
After all, unless you are a child of a high family, you can't enter the top three when you are young, when the dynasty governs the country with filial piety and respects the elderly, those who are old can't bear to let them be pressed down by the stinky boy when they take the palace test.
Dong Qinghe threw it directly to him, picked up the tea and tasted it slowly, the tea in the meditation building is good.
This is the study, and the taste of the fruit tea offered by Zhu Xiaoju is completely different.
"By the way, when you left, my sister-in-law decided to hand over this year's New Year's alms to you, you should prepare more. ”
What, Dong Qinghe's movements stopped suddenly, put down the teacup, what do you mean, giving is the highlight of the year, what does it mean to hand it over to her.
The New Year will be auspicious, prosperous, large families will have the behavior of sending copper coins and buns, etc., some government places also have, and there are also at the entrance of the palace to show that they celebrate with the people.
The Dong family was originally known as the Great Benevolence House, and at this time there was absolutely no ambiguity, and the number of people waiting at the door of Dong's house was often the largest.
In addition to these, there are also some donations from the temple and some alms at the temple entrance.
In some people's minds, these often represent the fortune of the coming year.
Willing, willing, giving to get, the New Year, is to give, the next year can be gained.
"You lied to me. Dong Qinghe looked at him with an innocent expression.
Wu Hai didn't look up, just shook his head, looking like he didn't want to deceive himself.
Dong Qinghe looked at the book in Wuhai's hand, and finally felt some comfort in his heart.
She didn't take this thing for the article, she was interested in the people behind the article.
When they are admitted to the Jinshi, they are generally in their twenties, and at this time, they are at the age when they want to show their ambitions, and they have seen the officialdom and have experience.
It can be said that people at this time are the backbone of officialdom.
Dong Qinghe's plan is to win over some of them.
After all, the Jinshi background is already the best batch, no matter whether the official position is good or bad, it is always an official of the imperial court and can be promoted.
How to distinguish, judging from these articles, people's characters can often be seen in people's articles.
Although these were written many years ago, the nature of the country is easy to change, and it is still true that the heart is not lost.
If the Dong family wants to win over these people from some good aspects, they have to plan a little bit, not to mention that they have been officials for a few years, there are always some things about their political achievements, what is it, you can know it when you ask.
"How?"
Dong Qinghe asked Wu Hai, this is a senior in this regard, and it should not be wrong to ask him.
"Some of them are really good, and I wrote them all down. "Wuhai is not a person who can take Qiao, all ready, go back and check again.
Dong Qinghe took it and took a look, she seemed to have heard of some names, and she was a good parent official.
Until the night, Dong Chengshuo and Wuhai had dinner, and Dong Qinghe was reluctant to eat with Han Zhen because of charity, after all, he was indeed a little weak-hearted.
"You can help me take a look. ”
As soon as she went back, Dong Qinghe brought Qiu Wei over, she still believed in Qiu Wei, and she wanted to help as much as she could with this charity.
Pei Nian and Dong Qinghe obediently listened to her talk about the previous charity, and they really hadn't prepared for it.
"This year, we must deal with Yuanhan Temple, this is in the limelight, and we must deal with it well. ”
"Hmm. Dong Qinghe nodded, she also had to learn it herself, and at the same time, she also knew that now she and Yuanhan Temple were grasshoppers on a rope.
Pei Nian followed Dong Qinghe, Dong Qinghe wouldn't, she wouldn't let herself, listen obediently at this time.
