Chapter 354: Huang Guan, the author of "Examination Books".
Chapter 354 "Examination Book" author Huang Guan
"When, really?" The old bull head still doesn't believe it, of course, he doesn't blame him, who let the common people have long been deceived by the officials, people say that they were afraid of the well rope after being bitten by a snake for ten years, this is the reason.
"Where are there so many real and fake, my official Chunge said one thing, you put your heart in your stomach." If it is in the southeast or Songcheng, Chunge's words can be described as a golden rule, who doesn't believe it, he never thought about leaving for two years, changed places, and even a little common man doesn't believe him.
"Why?" The old bull head scratched his head, those officials were not like this, either they ignored them poor people, or they took advantage of them to death, but Chun Ge was not like the officials that the old bull head had seen before.
"Where did it come from, so many why?" Chun Ge smiled bitterly, and he was not satisfied with what he did with this old bull head.
"Ah Hong didn't take care of adults, shouldn't you be angry?" Lao Niutou thought about it very seriously, if he was an official, he would definitely have a pimple in his heart when he saw someone neglecting him because of a lowly peasant, not to mention that Chun Ge seemed to be a big official.
"Is this little thing worth annoying?" Chun Ge shook his head and said: "Filial piety comes first, your son is filial to you, why should I be angry, shouldn't I be happy for you, if you have a son like this, what more can you ask for." Chun Geshun helped the old bull's son, the young man named Ah Hong, up.
The young man kept staring at Chunge, Chunge's eyes were clear, and there was a slight smile on the corner of his eyebrows, just like the glimmer of hope he saw in the cell yesterday, Ah Hong was grateful to Chunge, if it weren't for Chunge's order, he really didn't know how long his father would stay in front of the mansion, and he didn't know if he would come out in the Year of the Monkey, or in the old death row, all thanks to Chunge, the man in front of him who was about the same age as him.
"The grace of the adults to save Niu Hong is unforgettable, and I hope that the adults will not be too shabby. Let's go inside the house. Niu Hong waved his left hand. Bow down and invite Chunge in.
"You don't have to be so polite, besides, I'm not an adult, let's talk about it as equals." Chun Ge turned sideways to avoid Niu Hong's bow, but instead let the old cow head follow behind himself.
The old bull head was flattered at first, and then he looked at Chun Ge happily, looking at Chun Ge like his own child, and said a few words from time to time, so he brought Chun Ge and his son to the room. He was a peasant and didn't have much to talk about, so after sitting for a while, he said that he would go out to get some food and leave Chunge for lunch. As soon as the words were finished, the people went to make food, which really showed the simplicity of the peasant family vividly.
"That's what Daddy is. Don't be surprised. "Although Chun Ge said that he was an equal, Niu Hong still didn't dare to regard Chun Ge as an equal, he was the same as all the candidates in the world, with Chun Ge's portrait hidden next to his pillow, and Niu Hong who took Chun Ge as a god to worship, and now he sees that the god in the painting is by his side, how can he regard Chun Ge as a peer.
"Uncle Niu's temperament is straight. I appreciate it. Chunge has been accustomed to seeing vanity and grievances over the years, and he has a sense of joy when he sees the bold peasants by chance.
"People say that Guan Chunge is a bloody person who kills people without blinking, but now when he sees the truth, he really hears it and sees it is believing." Niu Hong felt the warm feeling brought by Chunge, and couldn't help but sigh, they who knew nothing about Chunge had not come into contact with Chunge, but there was a legend about Chunge among the students. Since ancient times, civil and military affairs have been incompatible, and they have regarded Chunge with prejudice against military generals. Therefore, no matter how high Chunge's knowledge is, the officials and students in the capital still do not treat Chunge as literati.
"Hehe" Chun Ge teased: "It's better to meet than to be famous." ”
"Fei Ye" Niu Hong was surprisingly serious, and said word by word: "How can the demeanor of the gentleman be seen by those people in the market, if the students were afraid of you in the past, but after getting along with you this time, the students respect you." ”
Niu Hong was also fortunate to have seen those Hanlin scholars who claimed to be knowledgeable, but those people were simply different from Chunge, Chunge's temperament contained elegance, and he was full of openness in dealing with the world, and those great Confucians in the world were probably this style. Therefore, Niu Hong admires Chunge, Chunge has a literati charm, and a face with poetry and books in his belly.
"It's strange for you, you and I are only a few years apart, how can you call me sir, is this what you mean to kill me?" Chunge naturally didn't expect that his face had already conquered others, and in his opinion, a filial character like Niu Hong could be befriended.
"The master is the teacher, whether you are in academic attainments or official experience, you have long left the students far behind, call you Mr., or the student Gao Pan." Niu Hong saw Chunge again and had the idea of apprenticeship, he was a child from a poor family, he had borrowed books from those rich people since he was a child, and even the private school was paid for by the people of their village to study. Although he passed the exam this time, his ranking was not high, not that he didn't learn enough, but he didn't have any power in his family, so he couldn't squeeze into the top ten. At this time, he finally had another opportunity, he could get in touch with people beyond his circle of friends, and he couldn't let the opportunity slip away in public or private.
Chun Ge's face changed in an instant, and he glanced at Niu Hong deeply, Niu Hong's thoughts he knew a rough idea, things were not within his control, but he was extremely curious about the development of things.
"The official knows what you think in your heart, you only need to do two things." Chun Ge raised two fingers and said indifferently: "The official can let you get your wish." ”
"Adults say, students are desperate." Niu Hong knew how rare and precious it was to climb the rising tree of Chunge, as long as he became Chunge's student, he would be able to take his father to live a good life, and his father would not have to be bullied in front of the government like this time. Yes, Niu Hong was originally an optimistic person, but this time because of the Qiu Yu case, he completely understood the value of human life, so he changed, he would rather give up a life of fame and fortune and gain fame and fortune in a circle with bound feet, rather than be powerless.
"Hey" Chunge sighed deeply, there is really a feeling of helplessness when the flowers fall, when a person is firm, no one can shake him, but when a person is shaken, no one can move anything to make him stable, this is the impermanence of the world.
"First thing," Chunge cleared his throat and asked, "Do you know who the author of the "Examination Book" is?" ”
"Do you know the Exam Register?" Niu Hong was stunned for a moment, although this divine book is a holy book in the minds of the candidates, it is worthless in those big officials. A book that many old pedants don't know. Chunge, a person who has been imprisoned for two years, would know how Niu Hong could not be shocked or sigh, and at the same time, he was even more determined in his choice.
"Looks like I've really gained something from this trip." Chunge just wanted to ask some poor students to try their luck, but he didn't think that the blind cat had bumped into a dead mouse.
"Sir's luck is good." I have to say that Chunge's luck against the sky, the so-called "Examination Book" was sold by Niu Hong, and as for the author, only he Niu Hong knows it in the whole world.
"It's just that the student promised that the person couldn't reveal his name, and the student couldn't say that he hoped that Mr. would forgive me." Niu Hong forgot that he had a request for Yu Chunge, he was a person who made a heavy promise in his bones, even if he wanted to be utilitarian now. But it's not inherently bad.
Chun Ge frowned slightly, a person who is famous for his knowledge in the world. He also knows a lot, there should be only a handful of people who can write the "Examination Book", plus he has a strange temperament and does not let people reveal his name, after thinking for a while, Chun Ge has an eyebrow in his heart.
"Where is Huang Guan?" Chun Ge is a set of people. Even at this point he didn't have any evidence.
"How do you know" Niu Hong realized halfway through his words that Chun Ge was setting off an empty cannon, but unfortunately his words were still set out, so he also gave up struggling, and said as if he had given up on himself: "Mr. is amazing, Mr. Huang also lives in this village." ”
"Huang Guan and I are also old acquaintances, but I didn't expect Huang Guan to do this, no wonder I feel that the style of "Examination Book" seems familiar." Chun Ge once asked Uncle Zhu to get a copy of "Examination Book", and after reading a few articles, he felt that he must have seen such a style of articles, but Huang Guan and he hadn't seen him for a long time. I didn't think about it for a while.
It is said that the friendship between Huang Guan and Chun Ge is really quite dramatic, when Chun Ge won the champion, he had the most proud moment in his life, and it was also the time when Huang Guan was swept away. At that time, Huang Guan saw Chunge, which really made a person more indignant than a person. Huang Guan's parents died when he was a child, and he lived in his uncle's house, and he tasted the warmth and coldness of the world when he was a child, and developed a withdrawn and noble character. But there was still a glimmer of light in his unfortunate life, and that was his cousin. Like most of his childhood cousins, Huang Guan fell in love with his cousin, and when Huang Guan was kicked out of the house, the two eloped to the capital. Huang Guan was recommended to Guozijian because of his fame, but he knew that the people in Guozijian were too snobbish, squeezed out all Huang Guan's money, and did not let him enter Guozijian.
Just when Huang Guan Mountain was exhausted, Chun Ge appeared like a savior, but fortunately, Chun Ge had sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, and Huang Guan who was like a firecracker did not fall behind at all, and the two quarreled once, but they knew each other like this. Chunge learned what happened to Huang Guan and decisively helped, for Chunge, who was in full swing at the time, Huang Guan's matter was a piece of cake, and he moved his fingers. However, Huang Guan is stubborn, and he has been in trouble with Chun Ge for a long time for this matter, and in the end it was his cousin who persuaded him to enter the Guozi Prison, and as for Chun Ge's later post in Songcheng, the two really broke off contact.
"Since he's here, take me to him." Chunge was curious about this person, shouldn't he be in the Guozi Prison, how could he write the "Examination Book" and still live in the suburbs.
Niu Hong said to his father and rushed to Huang Guan's residence with Chun Ge, and on the way, he also told Huang Guan what had happened over the years. Since Chun Ge left the capital, Huang Guan's life began to be difficult, until Chun Ge resigned two years ago, Huang Guan was also kicked out of the Guozijian, and it happened that Huang Guan couldn't get used to the style of the Guozijian and was willing to resign, so he found a cheap place to live in Beijing. At that time, their family spent their few savings and met Niu Hong, who was in the city, and Niu Hong brought Huang Guan to his village in the spirit of helping others, so that Huang Guan took root here.
After coming to this village, Huang Guan's wife's illness also improved, but it relapsed again in the autumn of this year, and Huang Guan, who was surrounded by four walls, wrote a book of "Examination Books" to save his life, and asked Niu Hong to help publicize it.
"This is Huang Guan's home?" Chunge looked at the thatched hut by the stream and asked in surprise.
"It's Mr. Huang's home." Niu Hong nodded and replied.
Chun Ge took a deep breath and said to Niu Hong, "You go back first, and I'll look for you later." ”
"Yes." Niu Hong knew that Chun Ge and Huang Guan had something to say, so he went home with interest.
Chun Ge stepped into Huang Guan's house after Niu Hong left, this house with a smell of Chinese medicine, I think Huang Guan's wife has been sick for a long time, otherwise how could it make the house full of medicinal smells. Chunge was still thinking about it here, and Huang Guan's hysterical roar came from there, so startled that Chunge staggered a few steps before frozen.
