Chapter 769: Favoritism

This kid surnamed Liang seems to be nosy? Why is it a bit similar to the Four Princes? Just sent away a follower who couldn't get rid of it, and now there is another one, although Chen Xianzhang, who is a teacher, stopped him, but Liang Chu insisted on going, and he died down. Isn't that a bit too indulgent? Ge Yong didn't even help to speak, so he couldn't get rid of this kid!

When leaving Gefu, Zhang Shou only felt a special headache. However, Liang Chu became very quiet and honest at this time, even after following him into the car, he did not talk nonsense, which was very different from the four princes who talked a lot all the time.

So, Zhang Shou could only just let this kid not exist, and he had a rigid face along the way, as if he was really a helpless uncle who was dragged into the water by his second uncle. And the outside and the coachman reversed, and Ah Liu, who drove in person again, did not talk nonsense, and drove all the way slowly, and after about two quarters of an hour, he stopped the carriage, and then jumped out of the driver's seat and opened the carriage door.

"Young master, it's here."

Hearing Ah Liu's voice, it was Liang Chu who was the first to get out of the carriage and jump out of the car, since he had heard of Zhang Shou's reputation a few days after he arrived in the capital, he was certainly no stranger to Ah Liu. However, he only glanced at Ah Liu, and did not rashly inquire, but looked curiously at the guard next to the car who claimed to be the second prince of Zhao Guogong's Mansion who came to report the news.

And Zhang Shou got out of the car behind Liang Chu and found a two-story small building facing the street in front of him, with four big characters written on the plaque, Suzhou Hall. At this moment, his face suddenly became delicate. You know, he also brought Ah Liu here to taste the chef's craftsmanship, and the Huahui of Suzhou Hall is his old acquaintance.

Even the fourth master of the Hua family, the richest man in Suzhou, also joined forces with Cao Wu of the Shunhe Dart Bureau because of his matchmaking, and is now operating the business of the sea dart boat. Although it is just getting started, it is said that the two sides talked very happily, and the two had negotiated with him before, and planned to give him an additional dry share in addition to the shares originally agreed to be his investment.

Zhang Shou really wanted to refuse solemnly...... But after thinking about it, I still smiled and accepted it.

But on the eve of the wedding, he gave it to the emperor, who planned to make a fuss in the Linhai camp and the Zhenhai camp, after all, certain interests had to be balanced. And the emperor's return gift was also very generous, adding a box to Zhu Ying, and privately giving him a commercial house in Tianjin. As a result, the Hua Cao family didn't know that behind their families, there was an extra backer who was simply hard.

Zhang Shouzheng thought so in his heart, Zhu Yi coughed lightly, lowered his eyebrows and said: "The second son fought again after quarreling with a few people here, I saw that the head of the Huahui in the Suzhou Hall came out to be a peacemaker, but the second son still didn't give up, and even had to force people to apologize, and the two sides were tense, so he hurriedly came to report to his uncle." ”

Zhang Shou glanced around and found that there was no trace of Zhu Ying, and he was a little suspicious in his heart. When he heard that there was still some noisy sound coming from the Suzhou Guild Hall, he couldn't help frowning.

If it was really Zhu Yi who came from here to report to him, it would take half an hour to go back and forth, that is, an hour...... If the turmoil has not subsided for an hour, then the matter must be true or not, but this is really big enough!

Sure enough, when he walked in with a calm face, what he heard was Zhu Er's signature shouting: "I'm just beating you, what's the matter?" The dog looks at people low, thinks that people have fallen off the list again and again, and thinks that people have written a few agricultural books, unlike your poetry collections that are circulating outside? Bah, I can let those sisters in what building and what courtyard sing, it's a long face, isn't it? ”

"If you have the ability, you can let the family listen to the twelve rains of Yu Xiaozhu and sing your words, and I will also say a word of service!"

When he said this, Zhu Eryi stepped on the stool, and slapped the high table on the side with one hand, like a gentleman who bullies men and women on the street. Zhang Shou hadn't seen people like this for a long time, and at this time, he suddenly remembered the time when he visited Zhao Guogong's mansion, and Zhu Er rushed in to talk to him.

That time, because of Ah Liu, Zhu Er came in full swing and returned with a feather.

And this time, there is obviously no one on the other side who can control the unruly Zhu Er. I saw that half of the young man's face was red and swollen, as if he had been slapped before, and the other two were also full of anger. However, Zhang Shou saw that the people around him did not have any sympathy in their eyes, but pointed and poked...... At this moment, he immediately knew in his heart.

Obviously, Zhu Ergang is not from this Suzhou Guild Hall, don't mention it, at least these three, they are definitely outsiders.

Sure enough, as he expected, Zhu Er seemed to dislike what he had just said was not mean enough, and after smiling, he put down his feet, flicked the hem of his robe casually, and continued to speak: "There is a way that literati are light, but you shouldn't be light on the people I respect!" ”

"Scolding people for not understanding history and poetry, writing two agricultural books that no one reads for so many years, and failing to pass the Jinshi exam in a lifetime? Hey, don't you know that agriculture is the foundation of the country, don't you know that what you eat is grown in the ground, and the cotton you wear is also grown in the ground, and the silk used for silk clothes is only cocooned after the leaves of mulberry leaves and oak trees are fed to silkworms? ”

"Do you think you can hold the poetry you are proud of, and live without food or clothing? It is because there are piles of scholars like you who are not diligent and do not distinguish between grains and grains, but are still chattering, so the yield of farmland in the world cannot go up, and there will be so many people in the world who work hard but can't fill their stomachs! Because you don't know any of that! ”

Although Zhu Er's words are very rough, if you study carefully, you can definitely find a bunch of mistakes, but in a place like Suzhou Guild Hall, angrily scolding the three origins of Nanjing Yingtianfu is definitely politically correct in this year.

Suzhou is an important silk weaving town, the weaving and dyeing bureau of the imperial court is over there, the annual tax is the most in the south of the country, there are countless rich families, and there are countless scholars. However, Nanjing Yingtianfu is the capital of Nanzhili, and it is the only two cities in the world that can be called Beijing. Even every time the academy tries to win the show, Nanjing can take 60 people, but Suzhou only has 40 people.

However, when it really comes to the Nanzhili Township test every time, it will be different. The number of people in Nanzhili Township has increased from 80 at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China to 135 now, and in the number of people raised by each prefecture in the township test every year, if you make a statistic, it is Suzhou and Changzhou that occupy the first and second places all the year round, and Ying Tianfu will be the third at most.

As for Songjiang Mansion, which is second only to Suzhou in wealth...... Suzhou people said that they didn't care about it at all! Who made your number of lifters rank fourth in the entire Nanzhili topping the sky? Occasionally ahead of the curve, it is only beyond Ying Tianfu......

Therefore, even if the two old lifters maintained by Zhu Er were not from Suzhou at all, there were no other Suzhou lifters in the hall at this time, but since they were from responding to the heavens, this naturally did not prevent those who lived in the hall at this time from firmly standing on Zhu Er's side. Especially this sentence is not diligent, and the grains are not divided, and I don't know who took the lead and shouted hello.

After such a good sound, it was just a thunderous sound. And Zhang Shou saw Zhu Er's elated appearance, his eyebrows fluttering, and then saw the people thanking everyone for their cooperation, he felt as if he was watching the show and thanked the parents who gave rewards. However, he was about to continue to take a look at the side, but he didn't expect that a voice sounded behind him that could never be ignored.

"That's right, if it is said that agricultural books are not as good as scripture and history, then it can be said, but how can agricultural books be inferior to poetry and small paths! Mr. Kang Zhai, the teacher of the tutor, once went to the fields with his disciples to farm, while doing things, lecturing at the same time, and enlightening the Tao at the same time, the students were not ashamed, but proud. Don't say that you are just a mere person now, even if you are a Jinshi in this course and choose Shuchang, so what? ”

"If the heart is crooked, that is, the road to study is crooked, the road to study is crooked, how can you not be crooked as an official in the future! If, today, the second son of Zhao Guogong's Mansion beats someone, it is very wrong, then you are 100% wrong! ”

"Of course, it doesn't matter if you have the order of the field, but at least you must know how to respect the old and love the young, and you must understand the hardships of farming!"

Zhang Shou couldn't help but puff his teeth slightly.

He knew that the person behind him would come out, and he would definitely not obediently stay where he was and watch the result, and sure enough, the person was simply a cannon that exploded at one point...... Looking at this situation, it is better to fall off the list in this subject. Otherwise, whether it is the selection of a priest, or the release of a magistrate, or the conferring of a noble position such as Dr. Guozi, it is estimated that they will fire from all sides and offend people to death.

It's no wonder that most of the time, let alone the entrance examination, even the chief examiner and elector of the township examination tend to press too young but talented people for one or even two terms, because in a place like officialdom, young and vigorous guys - especially those who are less than twenty - are like a drop of water in a seemingly lukewarm oil pot, which can easily be fried and splashed with oil stars and hurt others.

Therefore, the chief examiner who appreciates talents will let people spend three years to sharpen their temperament and then come out to take the exam to become an official. Although such a result is often to grind the sharp-edged young man into a greasy young man who does not spare his hands......

Thinking of this, Zhang Shou didn't think about it at all, he himself was less than twenty, and when he found that many people were looking at this side, he shouted with a smile: "It is said that the frivolous floater is often angry at the crown and becomes red-faced, so I thought that today Second Brother Zhu you are relapsing from the old ways, but I didn't expect that it was a sage who was angry with the crown, which is completely different from the past." But in any case, it is not right to hit someone. ”

The three Nanjing people were in different situations, the initiator who covered his face turned red at this time, but the other two regretted that for the sake of their companions' righteousness, they accompanied their companions to the Suzhou Hall to seek justice for the humiliation in the past, but they met a second son of the Zhao Guogong Mansion who didn't care about the consequences at all, but the background was too hard to be hard!

It's not counting that his companion was beaten, these guys in Suzhou Hall actually coaxed and helped, and a stinky kid actually jumped out and said something cool, and at this time there was a guy who called Zhu Er Zhu Second Brother!

However, Zhang Shou said a fair sentence in the end - it is not right to beat people, so the young lifter who covered his face only felt that he had grasped a life-saving straw, and shouted indignantly for a while: "That's right, you beat me in the street, this is a crime that cannot be escaped." Depending on whether you are the second son of the Zhao Mansion or who, it is also reasonable for me to sue the Shuntian Mansion! ”

Although Hua Siye said that he left the capital after attending Zhang Shou's wedding, but the head of Hua Hui was there, just now he was a peacemaker but returned in vain, at this time he saw that Zhang Shou also came, and the young man who accompanied him was still afraid that the world would not mess up and help coax people, he was naturally a head and two big.

Fortunately, Zhang Shou blamed Zhu Er at the end of his words just now, and he was about to take the opportunity to round up again, but he didn't expect that a certain guy would be angry and say such cruel words.

With a bad heart, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Zhang Shou showing a smile, and suddenly remembered the other party's personality - there is no doubt that unlike the appearance of a fairy who seems to be indifferent to the world, Zhang Shou is actually a ruthless person who will be retribution. Will he help his relatives or not? That's weird! Zhang Shou has always been the person who protects his relatives and friends the most!

In an instant, Hua Huishou made up his mind, and he immediately stepped out with an arrow, but said with a smile: "This old man from Tianfu, you just said that Zhu Ergongzi beat you, in addition to your two friends, do you have any other witnesses?" ”

As soon as Zhang Shou spoke, many people in the Suzhou Hall already recognized him - and even if he didn't recognize him, ask the people next to him, or guess, and he could roughly guess eight or nine. After all, someone who can call Zhu Ersheng Zhu Er, and has such a good look, can only find this one in the entire capital.

So, when I heard the words of Hua Huishou who was obviously partial, people looked at each other, and someone immediately laughed and said: "That's right, it's obvious that you yourself were scolded and dumped yourself in a hurry, why did you rely on the second son?" This touch porcelain has not been touched like this! ”

Zhu Er found out that Zhang Shou was coming, and he was a little panicked for a while, but he found that Zhang Shou praised himself a few words as soon as he came, and then he lightly said that it was not right to beat people, he didn't know that Zhang Shou was defending himself, and he was overjoyed, even if the guy he had beaten shouted, he didn't pay attention to it at all.

Sure enough, the next moment he was overjoyed to find that with the blatant partiality of the head of Huahui, the rest of the Suzhou Hall followed suit. Not only that, but some people even shouted: "Our talented people in Suzhou just went out to meet friends, and when they come back, ask them to write a few wonderful articles and spread them, this is really a big news!" ”

"Yes, yes, when they go out to meet the text, please ask the people from other provinces to comment on it!"

With this gossip voice, the three young men who had just been filled with righteous indignation turned pale. They are not in the same session of the current section, the beaten party is this year's new imperial examination people, the other two were raised three years ago, but they accompanied their companions to find the field, it is said that people were scolded by these two old people who relied on the old and sold the old, and their hearts were depressed for many years.

Who knew it would be in such a tricky situation!

Seeing that the three of them had been roasted on the fire, Zhang Shou glanced at the two sluggish old men beside Zhu Er, and thought about saying hello. However, when he came to his lips, he was robbed again by a young man behind him.

"Did the two old-timers really write agricultural books? The younger generation of Guangdong Liang Chu is also a candidate for the exam, so he asked the two old-timers for their surnames and names, where do they live temporarily? When I go back, I want to visit my family with my teacher. Mr. Bai Sha, the tutor, has always respected people who practice it. ”
