In the envious eyes of everyone, Xu Yan followed Zhao County's order into the gate of the yamen.

He followed Zhao Xianling all the way through the hall and through the courtyard to the back office, and the two entered the study one after another.

Zhao Xianling sat down behind the bookcase, and laughed harmoniously: "Xiansheng, there are no outsiders here, sit down." ”

Xu Yan hurriedly arched his hand and said, "The student doesn't dare." ”

Zhao Xianling stroked his beard lightly, and was very satisfied.

Xu Yan is not only talented, but also abides by the rules and knows how to advance and retreat, and as the head of the Xinke County trial, he is not arrogant and inflated.

It is really commendable to be so calm at such a young age.

"The county named you as the head of the county trial not because of personal friendship, but because your article is really good."

After a pause, Zhao Xian Ling continued: "At that time, it's good that you can be neither arrogant nor impatient." You must know that there are also government exams and hospital exams waiting for you next. Only when these are passed, can you get the fame of Xiucai. ”

"Thank you for the mention."

Xu Yan stood with his hands tied and said respectfully.

"This government test has been advanced, and it is scheduled for half a month later. Ma Zhifu is humble and fair, and cherishes talents the most. As long as you play well, you will be able to pass. ”

Zhao County's words have a bit of flavor.

He knows so much about the Ma Governor's Mansion, so he must have a very good personal friendship. And Xu Yan is the head of the case personally selected by Zhao Xianling, which can be described as the descendant of the lineage. In this case, as long as Xu Yan's performance in the government examination is not too bad and abnormal, he will definitely be recognized.

Of course, it is impossible for Zhao Xianling to say these words too clearly, and Xu Yan needs to taste them himself.

As for the quality, it's up to you.

"Teacher, there is a sentence that the student does not know whether to say or not."

Xu Yan thought for a moment and still bowed to Zhao County.

"It doesn't hurt to say it in time."

"According to the emperor's order, the college examination should be conducted by the great master himself as usual. However, since the 21st year of Jiajing, the Zhejiang political secretary and Zhang Tixue stepped down, the imperial court did not appoint a new academic official to take over. The college examination is twice a year and cannot be delayed. There is no mention of the main examination of the school official, so it has to be handed over to the prefectures and counties. According to what the teacher sees, will this be the case in this college examination? ”

Xu Yan's question was very tricky, but it was actually a test of Zhao County's order.

The school official is in charge of the provincial school administration, and the college examination should naturally be presided over by him. However, the situation in Zhejiang is somewhat peculiar, and in the past five years, the imperial court has not appointed officials to do academic politics. In this way, the power of the hospital examination was delegated to the local prefectures.

There are, of course, pros and cons. If it is the main examination of the school officer, the candidates in all prefectures and counties can basically get the same evaluation standard. However, if power is delegated to the localities, the governors of various prefectures, prefectures, and counties will definitely hope that they will be able to show off more talents under their rule. After all, culture and education are also very important criteria for evaluating the performance of local officials.

If Xu Yan is not mistaken, in the twenty-seventh year of Jiajing, the imperial court will appoint Lei Li as a scholar. If the college examination is passed this year, it is likely that the magistrate will take the exam. If it is delayed until next year, it will most likely be the new student promotion officer Lei Lilai to be the chief examiner.

Although Xu Yan asked vaguely, how could Zhao County Order not hear it?

He pondered for a moment, twisted his beard and said, "At that time, culture and education are the top priority, how can it be delayed?" According to the county, the hospital examination will not be postponed. ”

Xu Yan secretly said in his heart, it seems that this court examination should still be presided over by local officials.

To some extent, this is a good thing for him, after all, he is the head of the county trial selected by Zhao County's order. Officials also have to give face to each other, if he guesses correctly, the chief examiner of this Ningbo government examination will be replaced by the Ningbo prefect.

"Thank you for the mention."

Zhao Xianling was able to say it so clearly, and Xu Yan was very grateful.

"At that time, the county has one more thing to remind you."

Zhao Xianling paused, and then said: "Governor Ma doesn't like sharp people. ”

Hiss!

Hearing this, Xu Yan couldn't help but gasp in his heart.

Since he came to Daming, he has always been very strong, whether it is writing poetry or contributing strategies.

Being strong certainly has the advantage of being strong, and he can make an impression quickly.

If it weren't for the anti-Japanese poem and the strategy of rectifying coastal defense, he would not have been favored by Governor Zhu Kun.

But not everyone likes sharp-edged young people. For example, this Ma Governor's Mansion.

Zhao Xianling kindly reminded him that he was afraid that with Xu Yan's character, he would show his edge to the fullest, if he was disgusted because of this, the Ma Governor's Mansion would not be beautiful.

"You are still very young, and you still have a long way to go. At the moment, it is imperative to concentrate on studying, and not to care about temporary gains and losses. ”

Zhao Xianling is really optimistic about Xu Yan, in his opinion, as long as this young man sharpens his character, his future is limitless.

"Thank you for the teacher's advice, and the students must keep it in mind."

"By the way, I heard that you went to Hangzhou a few days ago and worshiped under Mr. Xushan Qian Hongfu?"

Zhao Xianling stared at Xu Yan with a smile, which made Xu Xiaolangjun a little embarrassed.

After all, Zhao County Ling is also his nominal teacher, and he worshipped a great Confucian as a teacher without informing Zhao County Ling. Zhao Xianling shouldn't be jealous, right?

"Hui Yu County Zun, this is indeed the case."

Seeing that Xu Yan's face was flushed, Zhao Xianling smiled: "Haha, you don't have to be nervous, this county is just asking casually." Mr. Oyama is a great Confucian and erudite, and you can learn a lot from him. ”

After this conversation, Xu Yan had a new understanding of Zhao County's order.

Originally, he thought that the control scope of Zhao County's order was only a mere county in Dinghai, but he knew that he could even know the news from Hangzhou in time.

It seems that there is really no simple one in the official, they are all the human essence of the human spirit.

As if guessing what Xu Yan was thinking, Zhao County Ling Youyou said: "This county is also a Jinshi in the eleventh year of Jiajing. ”

Hearing this, Xu Yan couldn't help but sweat down his spine.

I go, how can things in this world be so coincidental?

Two of my teachers turned out to be the same subject?

So Zhao Xianling and Mr. Qian are the same year?

"Don't hide it, this county and Brother Hongfu have a very personal relationship. In the twentieth year of Jiajing, Brother Hongfu was imprisoned for his words, and the county also raised some silver taels and handed them over to his friends in Beijing to save him from prison. For so many years, the correspondence between the county and Brother Hongfu has never been broken. Not long ago, Brother Hongfu repaired a letter and asked someone to send it to Dinghai County, and Tuoben County will take care of you. ”

Hearing this, Xu Yan's eyes were already red.

He wasn't a sentimental person. But in this matter, he was really moved by Mr. Qian.

Mr. Qian really treats him as a nephew and can't wait to pave the way for him. Of course, Zhao County Ling also treats him well, with such two teachers, what reason does he have not to work hard and devote himself to the industry?

ps: Xu Yan is simply a group pet, there is wood, such a group pet deserves a wave of recommended votes to celebrate~
