In the study.

Qian Yuan looked at his uncle with new eyes, in his impression, Qian Zheng was a typical clear stream in history, iron-headed, stubborn, and could do anything for his ideals...... In Huizhou Mansion, Qian Zheng has talked about it many times, and he admires Yang Jisheng very much.

Of course, Qian Zheng is also different from other Qingliu in the court, he can bow his head and do things, which is one of the reasons why he is favored by Gao Gong.

Qian Zheng has been in Beijing for a month, and there are many visiting guests, Qian Yuan will usually accompany him, and every time he treats guests, Qian Zheng is serious, almost does not talk about any private topics, and he talks very little...... So little that Qian Yuan wanted to teach some common sense of communication.

But today is different, Qian Zheng started from his childhood, talked about the rural fun of Huating, and talked about Sun Kehong, who is now known as the first person after Wenheng Mountain in calligraphy and painting...... It's like a veteran of communication, but Xu Shi is a little uncomfortable.

Qian Yuan on the side yawned, he really didn't know that Qian Zheng and Xu Jie were so bad, but he had a good relationship with Xu She...... Calculating the time, Nie Bao was imprisoned in the twenty-seventh year of Jiajing, and at that time, Xu Shi was already a second-class jinshi in high school, and Qian Zheng and Xu Jie had not fallen out over Nie Bao's affairs at that time, after all, they were fellow villagers.

However, the current Xu Shi is not the appearance of a junior scholar just now, although his ability is not very strong, but because of his relationship with Xu Jie, he is the only person in Xu Mansion who can get on the table besides Xu Jie.

While chatting, Qian Zheng looked at his nephew, he knew that Qian Yuan had been sending things to Xu's Mansion for the past few days, and he didn't ask anything after asking a few times, and it happened that Xu Shi bumped into the door.

"Uncle, Wanghu Gong, why don't I go back first?" Qian Yuan yawned again, "There are still eight shares that I haven't written in the afternoon." ”

"Well, that's business." Qian Zheng nodded.

Xu Shi was in a hurry, "With the ability to display talents, Jinshi is naturally ...... to capture"

"What are you talking about?" Qian Yuan Zhengse said: "Even if you can be in the Jinshi, the second-class jinshi is better than the third-class jinshi, the Shu Ji Shi is better than the second class Jinshi, and the first-class Jinshi is better than the Shu Jishi......"

Xu Shi looked at Qian Zheng helplessly, "Brother Gangsheng, let my nephew listen to it more...... It's not a bad thing, is it? ”

Before Xu Shi came, Xu Jie had already explained...... Qian Fu, I'm afraid it's not Qian Zheng who is presiding.

Qian Zheng took a sip of tea with a smile and didn't say anything, Qian Yuan raised his eyebrows at Xu She...... Isn't it good to get down to business sooner? You have to pull the mess first!

"Brother Gangsheng has just returned to the DPRK...... It's not the same anymore. Xu Shi sighed, "It is never an exaggeration to say that morality is degenerate, and there is no image of the gathering of sages during the Hongzhi and Zhengde years." ”

Both uncles and nephews were drinking tea with their heads bowed expressionlessly.

Xu She's eloquence is really not very good, he racked his brains and thought about it all night last night, but he still can't ask the cleaners and staff in the house for advice on this matter.

"With the great righteousness, almost no one responded."

"The DPRK and China are often exchanged interests, and in the long run, it is really painful."

He said that he was heartbroken, but Xu She's expression had no connection with the word at all, and he stared at Qian Yuan with straight eyes.

Qian Yuan is a little inexplicable, in the final analysis, the government is an exchange of interests, thousands of years ago, and thousands of years later, what is the point?

Qian Yuan can't be blamed for this, although he is as careful as a hair and can see a leaf and know the autumn, but he is not very proficient in this metaphor about this era.

Of course, Qian Zheng heard something, smiled and waved his hand: "It's just some food, and it's not a valuable thing, why is it like this...... Zhancai just likes to tinker with these. ”

Qian Yuan finally understood, he stared at Xu She, and tried his best to hold back a smile...... Endure the wild laughter that comes from a great sense of absurdity.

Xu Shi was a little embarrassed, but he tried his best to keep a smile and said with a smile: "After all, he is a fellow villager, although Zhancai is famous all over the world, after all, he has only entered Beijing for a short time, what can he explain ......?"

Xu Shi was promoted to the middle of the military department at the end of last year, where did he dare to play this kind of package ticket, which of course refers to Xu Jie, the second assistant of the cabinet.

I have to say that Qian Yuan, who has not yet become a leader, underestimated the complex situation in the DPRK and China, and also underestimated the psychological complexity of a bigwig like Xu Jie.

For Xu Jie, he is quite obsessed with Qian Yuan, but he will not rashly take him under his door, once they get married, not to mention what Yan Song will think, even Emperor Jiajing will put a question mark in his heart.

Besides, Xu Jie has already been able to determine that the Qian family has already hooked up with Gao Gong.

So, today Xu Shi brought Xu Jie's doubts, what do you want?

There are too many benefits that Qian Yuan can bring to Xu Jie, but on the contrary, Xu Jie can't immediately bring anything to Qian Yuan or Qian Zheng......

In the mindset of ordinary people, if you marry my daughter, what can you give?

But in the thinking mode of the politician Xu Jie, what do you want if your daughter marries you?

Qian Yuan, who had figured it out, shook his head helplessly, what is this called!

"Shicai Wanghu Gong is really not right." Qian Yuan said slowly: "The younger generation is really not sure that he can enter the department. ”

The corners of Xu She's mouth moved, "Your Majesty has ordered Wu Shan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, to preside over the examination, and his temperament is upright, although he is from Jiangxi, but he should have a gap with Yan. ”

This is to say that Wu Shan and Xu Fu have nothing to do with each other, so there is really no way to interfere...... However, there is no way to do it on the Yan Mansion's side!

"It's the palace test ......" Xu Shi smiled bitterly: "But only the first ten exam papers are listed in front of Your Majesty......"

The implication is that if you Qian Yuan pass the exam, you can still get into the top ten in the palace exam, but Xu Jie can get you into the Hanlin Academy.

Qian Yuan rolled his eyes, he was really speechless, if he could get into the top ten, he would still need you Xu Jie...... Believe it or not, Emperor Jiajing can stuff me into the first class!

It's really not an exaggeration, Qian Yuan was originally in the emperor's heart, the earth dragon turned over a few years ago, and his outstanding performance impressed Emperor Jiajing, and finally if you can see Qian Yuan's name in the first ten exam papers, the champion is not easy to say, and the first class should not run.

After a pause, Xu Shi explained: "It's the Hanlin Academy's side that chooses Shu Jishi...... One is to take an exam, and the other is to have an interview, which is possible. ”

Qian Yuan really didn't know that the selection of Ji Ji was for an interview...... Also, there is a high chance that Shu Jishi is an important minister in the court, and even if he enters the cabinet, he can't pick some crooked melons and cracked dates, and age is also an assessment criterion.

Qian Yuan sighed and turned his head to look at Qian Zheng, "Uncle has the desire to help the world, but he has no choice but to have a bumpy career...... It's a bit idle. ”

Xu Shi pondered for a moment and asked tentatively: "Brother Gangsheng wants to enter the sixth department?" ”

Qian Zheng lowered his head expressionlessly.

"Not really." Qian Yuan couldn't help but feel a little panicked when he saw his uncle's expression, and explained with a forced smile: "I just heard that there is a shortage in Zhan Shifu......

As soon as this sentence came out, Xu Shi immediately understood, although Qian Zheng did not enter Hanlin, he was a Shujishi, because Shujishi studied in the Hanlin Academy for three years, so he was also regarded as a Hanlin born.

Shu Jishi, who failed to stay in the Hanlin Academy, may also enter the cabinet, but he wants to enter the Zhan Mansion and take the path of the prime minister...... Xu Shi recalled, it seemed that there was really no precedent before.

"But there's no rush on the matter." Qian Yuan felt that his mouth was a little wide, and hurriedly turned back, "It's not too late to set things right." ”

In other words, it may not be to enter the Zhan Mansion, but it must be given a weighty position in the future...... Xu Shi glanced at Qian Zheng, who was still expressionless, and got up to say goodbye.

The uncle and nephew sent Xu Shi out of the house all the way, and when he was leaving, Qian Yuan approached and whispered: "There are many temples in Beijing, and I am thinking of going to incense in the next two days." ”

Xu Shi smiled and nodded slightly.

Watching the carriage disappear around the corner, Qian Yuan let out a long sigh of relief, he finally fooled it over, as long as he got people out, he could decide what to do next.

"Ahem."

Qian Yuan's body stiffened, and he turned to look at his uncle with a frosty face with a dry smile.

There's no need to put on such a stinky face, right?

This is for you!

Qian Yuan felt justified, but Qian Zheng wouldn't think so...... He didn't have much anger in his heart, but he was very aggrieved.

Obviously, Qian Yuan and Xu Shi both knew what was hidden under this conversation, but he, an elder, knew nothing.
