In fact, the prefect's explanation, it is better not to explain, anyway, it is a deduction, that is, after three or five years, a few people dare to follow the boss to ask for accounts, and it will be over at this time. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 After going back, Gu Zhixian explained to Long Xiao, and Long Xiao smiled. He had seen a lot of such things in his previous life, and it was not strange to see this. Besides, Long Xiao is not bad for money, just a little silver, if it's gone, it's gone.

On this day, Long Xiao was drinking tea in the county yamen, chatting with a few officials about some of his previous life, and the officials who listened to them were one by one, and the officials did not expect that Lord Long's experience was true or false, and he had experienced so much at the age of 16. However, although the officials were very suspicious, thinking that Long Xiao was talking nonsense, maybe it was a dream, but no one objected, because Long Xiao was an official, and their officials, if Long Xiao was unhappy, their jobs would be gone, so everyone was very suspicious of the story Long Xiao told, and they were listening to it very seriously, looking like they were empowered.

Long Xiao saw that everyone was a little confused, and knew that everyone didn't believe it, so he said it more energetically, anyway, everyone didn't believe it, just talk about it, even if it was a homesickness. This is, there is a servant walking in outside, holding a document in his hand, which is from the post station. Long Xiao took a look, it turned out that the imperial court was going to open Enke this year, the reason was that the emperor had a 5o birthday, and he wanted to give amnesty to the world, and he would increase the subject exam, and the world's children could enter Beijing to wait for the exam.

Long Xiao's heart moved, he was already 16 years old, it was okay, if he waited until he was 18 years old, it would take two years, and once this Enke opened, it would be a few years to open the department, it would be better to go to the capital this year to start counting, and he would also get a champion, and he would also be counted as having a foothold in another world. Long Xiao looked at the paperwork, there were still three months to leave the department, and the day was not far away, so he planned to go to Beijing to prepare.

Long Xiao asked Gu Zhutong for leave and arranged the affairs of the county yamen, and Long Xiao went back to Wolong Village, discussed with his parents, and said that he was going to the capital for a scientific expedition. Long Xiao's father prepared two large carriages for Long Xiao, lined up four family members, and followed Long Xiao to the capital. I stopped in Long's cloth.

At this time, Long's cloth shop was already a large store in the capital, whether it was the store area or the business amount, it was second to none among the cloth stores. Now not only do they deal in their own fabrics, but because they don't have enough to sell, they also sell some cloth from other cloth shops. Seeing that the business of Long's cloth shop was so good, many cloth shops let Long's cloth shop operate their own cloth. Therefore, Long's cloth shop operates a business of hundreds of kinds of fabrics, with a monthly operating quota of 3o thousand taels of silver.

The shopkeeper of Long's cloth shop, seeing that the young owner lived in, cleaned up a courtyard in the backyard, there are 8 houses, three of which are main houses, three are wing rooms, and two are kitchens, Long Xiao lives in the main house, and the four family members brought by Long Xiao live in the side room, Long Sheng has two old mothers in a row to cook for Long Xiao, Long Xiao lived here, it is a very quiet place, Long Xiao began to review what he has learned, and prepare for the exam.

After everything was cleaned up, Long Xiao went to the backer prince's house to say goodbye to the king, and by the way, he told the backer that he also had to take the exam in Enke Middle School this year. As soon as the prince heard the joy, he wanted Long Xiao to live in his own home, and the prince understood very well that this time Enke, firstly, the chance of coming to Zhongke was greater than usual, and secondly, with Long Xiao's talent, it was very likely that he would be in the top few, even if he was not the champion, he would be able to win the flower list. The prince also intends to win over Long Xiao and let Long Xiao stand in his camp.

Long Xiao already has a place to live, and said that he has a small mansion in his own cloth shop, which is very clean and suitable for studying, so he will not trouble the prince. As soon as the backer heard it, he knew that Long Xiao didn't like to be lively, and he was afraid of delaying his homework in his own home, so he didn't persuade him, it was the same everywhere, as long as Long Xiao had himself in his eyes, then Long Xiao would not be able to run, and he would definitely join his camp.

Long Xiao went to the eldest brother's house and the second brother's house again, and visited the two sisters-in-law and nephews, the third sister-in-law lived in the backing king's mansion and had already met, so there was no need to say it. After finishing these trivial things, Long Xiao calmed down to review his homework and prepare for the exam. During this period, the backer prince also came a few times, and he also brought the bachelors of the Hanlin Academy to discuss the article with Long Xiao, which benefited Long Xiao a lot. At this time, Long Xiao often studied with the bachelors of the Hanlin Academy, and the scholars were also surprised by Long Xiao's knowledge, and Long Xiao followed those

Academics build great relationships.

As for the exam, Long Xiao was confident as soon as he saw the exam questions, according to the current affairs that he usually chatted with the university scholars, he completed the exam papers without much effort, and the list came down, Long Xiao won the first list of the top three in the exam, and became the Jinshi of Enke this time, followed by the palace exam, Long Xiao was not in a hurry, a paper of the exam paper was written Long Fei Feng Dance, and an article was full of flowers, the emperor was overjoyed and immediately added the first place, Long Xiao became the first place in Enke this time, and became the champion of liberal arts. Even the emperor himself did not expect that Long Xiao's knowledge was so profound, when Long Xiao faced the saint, several scholars took turns to ask questions, and did not stump Long Xiao, the emperor rewarded Long Xiao with 10,000 taels of gold on the spot, and gave the champion mansion, since then, the four brothers of the Long family have become a family of four champions.

won the champion, according to the convention is a three-month holiday, and the clothes are returned to the hometown, Long Xiao is no exception, so he arranged the family he brought in the champion mansion of the royal gift, and let a family Longtai be a housekeeper. Long Xiao put the 10,000 taels of bonuses awarded by the emperor to Long Tai in charge, manage family affairs, buy maids and servants, hire caretakers, and take the other three people to get into the carriage and return to his hometown Wolong Village.

Long Xiao is the champion of liberal arts this time, which is different from Long Xiao's three elder brothers in the past, the three elder brothers are martial arts champions, which are very different from the champions of liberal arts. Now that the whole country is unified, the emperor also emphasizes civil affairs over military force, and civil officials still have great strength in the court, not to mention that the three provinces and six ministries are all civil officials, which creates a lot of space for civil officials.

Long Xiao returned to his hometown, which alarmed officials at all levels in Dalu County, and came to congratulate him in an endless stream, the first to arrive was Gu Zhutong of Zhixian County, Gu Zhutong in order to express his gratitude, he actually brought 1o million taels of silver tickets as a congratulatory gift, Long Xiao wanted to resign, where did he think that Gu Zhixian was unwilling to live or die, Long Xiao had to accept Gu Zhixian's thanks. It turned out that Gu Zhixian came here for a purpose. Gu Zhutong knew that with Long Xiao's relationship and Long Xiao being the champion of the undergraduate, he would generally be awarded an official position, unlike himself.

According to the practice of the imperial court, the champion of the new branch is generally a choice, one is to go directly to the Hanlin Academy and be a Beijing official, that is, to accompany the Son of Heaven and go to the court. One is to be delegated to the provinces and counties, generally only starting from the county, even the champion is no exception, but the champion has his benefits, as long as there is no major fault, the promotion is relatively fast, it depends on Long Xiao's choice. Gu Zhutong wanted to ask whether Long Xiao chose Jingguan or decentralization.

"Lord Long, you are now the champion, what are your plans?" , Long Xiao was also thinking about this problem, he traveled to this other world just to find the Mo Evil Divine Sword, but after all these years of investigation, the Mo Evil Divine Sword was not heard. It turned out that Long Xiao thought that the divine sword might be in the palace, but the emperor had made it clear that the palace compound had been searched countless times, and there was no trace at all, and it seemed that the divine sword had fallen to the people. If you live in the capital again, it doesn't make much sense, it's better to be free under the province and county, you can make friends with the green forest heroes, and slowly look for them across the country, maybe there will be a great chance.

Another problem is that Long Xiao likes Shenwu County very much, this is the place where he has lived since he was a child, Long Xiao wants to govern him well, if the emperor allows, Long Xiao will come back. So, Long Xiao told Gu Zhutong what he thought, and Gu Zhutong understood, then he needed to step up his operation. The prince had promised to be the prefect himself, and it seemed that he needed to go to the prince's mansion. In addition, Gu Zhutong's rebate silver in Shenwu County has also been collected almost enough, even if it is transferred away at this time, there is no big problem.

Gu Zhutong spent 1o thousand taels of silver in vain, and after hearing Long Xiao's true thoughts, he stepped up the pace of searching for silver, and within a few months, he included all the silver he should get in his pocket, which is a later story. After Gu Zhutong left, the prefect Wang Kexin and the governor Guo Zihan also came to congratulate, and also brought valuable gifts, that is, those grain roads, salt roads, water roads, and military roads also came, as long as they were officials above the seven grades in Dalu County, almost all of them came, and Long Xiao's family had been feasting for a month before it was over.
