Jiang Mengzhen asked her, "Do you remember that I told you earlier that Cousin Bingxin opened a bookstore."

Hao Cheng nodded: "Naturally remember, didn't you still say that you still wrote a book in the bookstore called Hejiang, and there is a pen name Mingxin Jushi."

"It's not Jiang, it's true, you don't remember the pen name wrong." They are in the Jin Kingdom, and the bookstore uses a name with a country name, so it will naturally look taller. The plaque of the bookstore is still the title of today's saint, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the first bookstore in the Jin Kingdom.

mentioned the pen name "Mingxin Jushi", she inevitably had to be jealous again: "Since you are called Mingxin Jushi, I also want to write a book, and call it a dark heart Jushi, and the bright heart and secret heart are a pair at a glance."

Jiang Mengzhen burst out laughing: "Then it's better to be a monk with a clear heart."

"That's what it's called." In short, she wants to take a name that is a pair with Jiang Mengzhen at first glance, and she can't let others associate Jiang Mengzhen with that Bingxin cousin.

Jiang Mengzhen said with a smile: "It's a pity that you are late, the name Xinming Jushi has already been used."

Jiang Mengzhen's book is indeed well written, coupled with the promotion and operation of the bookstore, his reputation is also resounding in the Jin Kingdom. As soon as a person becomes famous, there will be people who want to gain fame, and naturally some people deliberately take pen names similar to his name, so that they can quickly circle fans and make money.

Hao Cheng was a little unhappy, but she was also very aware of this, and after a moment of silence, she said again: "What about the pen name of Xinyoumingxin, does the bookstore or the other family use this?"

Jiang Mengzhen groaned: "This is not true." In fact, as long as it's not too famous, it's not in the way if the pen name is knocked down.

Hao Cheng settled down like this: "Then I will call this, I have you in my heart, and when people look at it, you know that you are mine." ”

Jiang Mengzhen was thin-skinned and glared at her: "You don't worry about others thinking that you have rubbed off on my reputation." ”

Hao Cheng smiled and said, "Maybe I will be more famous than you in the future." ”

Jiang Mengzhen teased her: "Then what are you going to write, write a recipe, the bookstore doesn't accept this, but I can help you print it, those chefs in the restaurant may like it." He also knew that Hao Cheng's poetry was not his strong point.

Hao Cheng said again: "Who said I was going to write this, what I want is to write a book, isn't the bookstore able to rehearse plays, maybe it will be really popular when the time comes."

If she remembers correctly, there are a lot of talented and beautiful women in the market, and there are also foxes, fairies and ghosts, all of which are written by those scholars, and the name of the bookstore is also printed on the book, and the story is well written, and the sons in the boudoir also love to read it. Like Xiao Xiangjun, isn't it famous for writing these.

She definitely can't write that kind of literary crepe at a glance, but in her last life, she has read so many wonderful stories, and there are many wonderful characters in the history of that world.

Seeing that Jiang Mengzhen was silent with a smile, she said again: "Besides, the husband is so powerful, if I don't write well, you can give me a few points of advice, and it would be good to practice more." I haven't started writing, so how do you know I don't have that talent? ”

The wife has a heart, and Jiang Mengzhen will not hit her self-confidence, and said with a smile: "If you want to write, then write well." If you can really write a great reputation, it will also be good for your fame. ”

Hao Chengfang showed a satisfied smile, and then turned the topic back to Dao Fang Yu: "What does this matter have to do with Fang Yu?" Do you want her to work in the bookstore? ”

Jiang Mengzhen did not answer her words directly, but asked her rhetorically: "What does the wife think is the most powerful weapon of the literati?" ”

Hao Cheng hesitated for a moment and replied, "Mouth and pen." ”

Military attachés rely on swords and military exploits, and civil officials of course rely on their mouths and pens. The mouth is a melee weapon, more suitable for process attacks, the pen is much more powerful, the text of the pen is a spreadable near-range attack, which can be attacked individually or indiscriminately, and the wider it spreads, the stronger the lethality.

For example, the surname Zhou Shuren in the history of her previous life, the pen in her hand is comparable to a weapon of mass destruction.

Jiang Mengzhen said approvingly: "Fang Yu is a literati, and she doesn't have a strong background behind her, if she wants revenge, she can only rely on herself." The pen in her hand is her most satisfactory weapon, but I am only providing opportunities, whether it can be done or not, it depends on herself. ”

He mentioned it, and the rest was up to Hao Cheng to think about himself. She rolled her eyes, and then held Jiang Mengzhen's mouth and kissed it: "Thank you for the idea, then I'll tell Fang Yu." ”

Jiang Mengzhen put his finger against the lips that she kissed, looking at the fans that were pushed away by Hao Cheng and had no time to close, the corners of the man's eyes in the mirror were slightly raised, and his eyes showed a bit of helpless pampering.

Fang Yu expressed his gratitude to Hao Cheng for his proposal: "You have helped me so much, I don't know how to reciprocate." ”

Hao Cheng shook his head: "Between friends, where do you have to care so much, not to mention that I didn't help much." She just pulled Fang Yu and then provided an opportunity, and most things still had to rely on Fang Yu to help.

If Fang Yu was really a dou who couldn't be helped, and he had to rely on her for everything, she wouldn't help her anymore. After all, Fang Yu is not her daughter, so she doesn't need to take care of her in everything.

Fang Yu said with a smile: "To have a friend like you may be a blessing from my three lifetimes." ”

Being praised by her like this, Hao Cheng was also a little embarrassed, she didn't stay in Fang Yu's yard for a long time, and encouraged the other party a few words, then went back to her own yard and began to study hard.

In order to have an excellent performance in the palace examination, in addition to studying, Jiang Mengzhen is also responsible for training her etiquette. For example, walking with a book on his head, squatting for two hours, and walking motionlessly.

After high-intensity training, Hao Cheng's feeling was sore and painful, and he didn't want to give up. But looking at Jiang Mengzhen, who was accompanying her, she gritted her teeth and persevered.

On the day of the temple examination, this kind of training also achieved certain results. For example, her strength is greater than before, her waist strength is better than before, her balance has improved, and her walking posture is more down-to-earth and generous than before.

Although it is not up to the kind of walking with a clay pot on its head, the water in it does not move at all, and there is no ripple at all, but she can guarantee that she will not let the clay pot fall down, and the water in the jar will not be spilled.

On the day of the palace test, Hao Cheng still couldn't help but be nervous, before leaving, she asked Jiang Mengzhen for a lucky kiss, and put it on the other party's mouth, it is said that she went to the temple to ask the master to open the jade pendant, so she was a little nervous on the road.

When she entered the imperial city, under the guidance of the palace attendants, she entered the Jinluan Hall with other movers, and was infected by the solemn atmosphere of the ancient palace, and her heart settled down.

Hengzhu has experienced any exams in her last life, she was very relaxed in her college entrance examination mentality, and she made sufficient preparations this time, as long as there are no accidents, no matter how she performs, it will not be bad.

Waiting for the Jinluan Palace, the palace examiner came up with the question, which was written by the emperor on the spot, and then written on the panel in large characters by the attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and then read through by the palace attendant with a sharp voice, so as not to miss the opportunity to answer because he could not see the question clearly.

The palace examination actually includes two items: written test and interview, with Jiang Mengzhen's devil training, Hao Cheng was at least in danger when he came in. Although it is not as imposing as those aristocratic women who are used to entering the imperial city for the first time, at least they can be regarded as passing the test in terms of demeanor and demeanor.

Fang Yu entered the hall with her, but Fang Yu's body was not yet well, and his walking was still a little unstable. Fortunately, because of her appearance, she was looked at a lot with strange eyes, and her demeanor was also safe along the way, which can be regarded as a good impression in front of the superiors.

When all the lifters are in their positions, it is time to start answering the questions. Hao Cheng first glanced at the questions on the board, there were no basic skills in poetry, but the old routines related to people's livelihood.

There are three major problems, one is related to water conservancy, one is related to military affairs, and the other is related to the current bureaucracy. Although I had discussed related issues with Jiang Mengzhen in advance, it was still a bit difficult to write a good line without touching the line.

Fortunately, I insisted on watching the news every day in my previous life, and I didn't write any messy official documents. Hao Cheng slowly polished the ink, typed the manuscript first, and then translated the vernacular and modern style words into a more literate Chinese in his mind.

Among the people present, someone had already painted most of the rice paper, but after a quarter of an hour, her roll was still empty.

The children are all answered separately, and they don't dare to skim around when they are stared at by the adults, but the examiner in charge of the invigilator can. Seeing Hao Cheng's white paper, the examiner deliberately walked back and forth near her position, making several people around Hao Cheng who were not nervous nervous, shaking his hands, and writing a few words wrong.

Later, the examiner simply stood next to Hao Cheng and stared at her, as if he was afraid that the candidate would suddenly take out a cheating paper. Xie Bingxin, as a fourth-grade courtier, although she is an idle position, she is also in the team of the last dynasty.

Seeing that the examiner stayed beside her cousin, her eyes also moved to Hao Cheng's test paper. Seeing a blank space, she frowned unconsciously, although she didn't like Hao Cheng, but the other party was also her cousin.

If Hao Cheng loses face, her face will not be any better. Just wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to pass, but Hao Cheng began to write. 166 Reading Network
