Chapter 100: Plan Ahead

Taking advantage of the large number of people, Zong Xiu pointed to the clothes on his body and hyped it up, and directly led Jiang Chen, Qin Zhongsheng, and Qin Zhongsheng through the crowd and walked back.

Behind the scenes, Interpretation of the scriptures still shouted and asked: "President Zong, in the autumn exam, do you take the exam or not." ”

"Haha, the exam or something, wait until the day of autumn. If Gongzi Xie has the heart to compete with him, it will not only be a way to take the big test in the autumn. After the big exam, I will hold the first Chang'an Poetry Meeting in Yifeng Pavilion, waiting for the world's scholars to come! ”

Zong Xiu said without looking back, but his steps were getting faster and faster.

Jiang Chen followed beside him and said angrily: "President, that interpreter is too arrogant, why don't you compete with him in front of everyone and lose his face." ”

"You know a hammer, the interpretation of the scriptures is too fake, and it is weird."

"What do you mean?"

Jiang Chen said curiously, and even the Qin family brothers looked over.

Zong Xiu sighed: "Isn't it false enough that he came up and gave himself the name of not caring about fame and fortune, but he provoked me in front of so many people?" If he really had the heart to compete with me, he would have gone to Chang'an to compare with me, so why wait until now. ”

"But I just heard from other scholars that the Kong family had recommended him to join the court as an official, but he refused." Qin Zhongsheng wondered.

Zong Xiu took a sip: "That's because the interests are not big enough, when the interests are big enough, there is no perfect person in this world." Haven't you heard that money can make ghosts grind? There must be someone behind this move. ”

"Then why didn't the president ask the person behind him, wouldn't it be too cheap for us to leave like this."

"Haha, Brother Jiang, don't forget, our main purpose is to advertise the new style clothes and attract customers. Isn't that a fool to get by for the sake of fame and money? ”

Zong Xiu was worried all the way, he was trying to explain the scriptures and forced him to ask him if he participated in the Autumn Festival, was it Lao Li's secret instructions, or was someone else bad from it?

Some things are afraid of making a start, no matter who instigated it, now that the interpretation of the scriptures has opened this head, then before the autumn exam, the topic of whether Zong Xiu will participate in the autumn exam will become the headlines of public opinion in Chang'an City.

When public opinion reaches its peak, even if Zong Xiu doesn't want to participate, Lao Li will force him to go.

After all, Chrysostom and Yuyu should not be changed lightly.

When he went to serve in the Guozijian, Lao Li's holy edict was indeed true: read that you were injured because of resisting the Qiang bandits and missed the examination, and you were authorized to serve first and then take the exam.

"Damn, you're going to get ready."

Thinking that it was very likely that he would be 'participated' in the autumn exam, Zong Xiu's head was so big that he didn't even have the heart to promote his clothes, and when he returned to the store, he asked Jiang Chen to put on a carriage and rush home.

As soon as he entered the door, Yi Qingqing, who was sitting in the yard teasing the golden tiger, got up and greeted him, smiling happily: "Childe, the golden tiger will make a grimace." ”

The little guy also ran to Zong Xiu's side with chubby short legs, and climbed up with Zong Xiu's calves.

Zong Xiu casually grabbed the leather on the back of the Golden Tiger's neck and held it in his hand: "Girl, you tease it first, I still have something to go to Jiangjia Village." ”

Seeing that Zong Xiu's face was not good, Yi was worried: "What trouble is the son encountering?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just a trifle."

For the sake of peace and affection, Zong Xiu said again: "Don't worry, after this matter is over, Your Majesty will not be rewarded." ”

"Hehe, that girl won't bother the son."

Yi Qingqing hugged the golden tiger who was still going to Zong Xiu's side and walked under the tree, and continued to teach the little guy other skills.

Zong Xiu entered the house, picked up the pen to write and draw, and when the writing was finished, he looked at the brush in his hand again: "Is there a big exam in autumn?" Hehe, even if I do participate, I'm not afraid. ”

Zong Xiu rolled up the written things into a roll, took it in his hand and said hello to Yi Qianqing, and went straight to Jiangjia Village.

And at this moment, Chang'an City is really the same as Zong Xiu guessed, most of the scholars who arrived in advance are discussing "whether the newly appointed doctor of Guozi Supervisor will participate in the Autumn Festival and how many places can he take the exam!" ”

There are even wild students who think they are talented and let out a bold statement - to defeat Zong Xiu in the big exam, as long as he can be tested in front of him, the official position must not be lower than him, otherwise it will be an injustice to His Majesty.

In ancient times, there were four classes of agriculture, industry and commerce, and scholars were the first. As soon as public opinion among the literati made a fuss, not to mention the speed of transmission, one word - fast!

Before it got dark, the topic of discussion among the scholars in Chang'an City reached Li Shimin's ears.

Li Shimin leaned over the dragon case, rubbing his temples, he had a drink with Li Daozong yesterday, and he had a splitting headache after a hangover, and even the court meeting was ordered in advance.

"This Zong Xiu, how can he cause trouble so much? Ay...... Now all the scholars in the city are clamoring to compete with him in the autumn exam......"

Li Shimin had a headache, a very headache.

The eldest grandson walked behind Lao Li, gently pinched Ailang's shoulder with his bare hands, and comforted: "Since the scholars are holding Erlang's holy oracle, why don't you follow their wishes and let Zong Xiu take the exam." ”

Li Shimin sighed: "Do you think I don't want to? Zong Xiu is now thinking about making money all day long, how can he have the heart to do learning. If he can't get the first place in the exam, isn't that equivalent to slapping me and the civil and military officials in the face? ”

The eldest grandson pursed his lips and chuckled: "Erlang, don't worry, I have seen Zongxiu's talent, and I believe that the autumn exam will not be difficult for him." What's more, who is the first place in this autumn big test is not a matter of your pen. ”

"Wouldn't that help him cheat? I can't do that. ”

"But if he doesn't take the big exam, where will His Majesty's face be?"

The eldest grandson Wujian picked up the fold of the guard on the table, looked at the name that was circled on it, and frowned slightly.

"Studying under the text, exegesis, An Boyi, and Le Zhengyang...... They are all famous talents from all over the world, and Your Majesty can't anyone who has passed the Zongxiu exam, so he will reward a five-grade official. Even if there are so many free places, a group of children may not do well, which is not good for me. ”

"This ......"

Li Shimin hesitated.

The eldest grandson whispered in his ear, and when his lips opened and closed, there was hot air, and Li Shimin's spirit fluttered when he listened, and finally laughed: "Okay!" Sure enough, it's a great idea! Guanyin is really my virtuous helper...... Hahahaha, I'm so happy, I'm so happy. ”

In the laughter, his arms were already wrapped around the thin waist of the willow, and the eldest grandson pushed it twice without wanting to refuse and welcome, and fell softly into Li Shimin's arms.

When Zong Xiu left from Jiangjia Village, it was already midnight, and accompanied by Jiang Chen, he walked along the riverside path to his home.

As soon as I arrived at the door of the house, I saw that the lantern at the gate was on, and in the orange light, Yi was holding the golden tiger in one hand and the sword in the other.

Looking up along the riverside path, there is a group of black figures fleeing frantically.

Jiang Chen hurriedly pulled out a horizontal knife and put it in his hand: "The president will be careful." ”

Zong Xiu ignored it, ran to Yi and shouted, "Girl, what's wrong, are you okay?" ”
