Chapter 22: The First Submission
"With the British public guarantee, I will definitely mix well in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies." Many people were very envious, and their eager eyes secretly aimed at Zhang Fu.
Zhang Ning said: "If the kid can be on the list, he has an errand, either in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, or in Jinyiwei." Grandpa Guo's words are no different from what he said or not. ”
The sons and daughters of the nobles who pass the review will get one of the errands in these two places, but relying on their own ability to get this errand is much more confident than relying on the relationship between the elders in the family, and the promotion is also faster.
Whispers rang out, and Liu Nian pulled Zhang Ning's belt behind him again. Zhang Fu is a lonely minister of the first emperor, highly respected, and recognized as the first person to be honored, who dares to talk to him like this? Isn't this looking for death?
Zhang Fu's sharp eyes looked at Zhang Ning fixedly, and said, "What do you want?" ”
The opportunity is rare, so naturally we want to benefit as much as possible, and seek a ticket to the political stage through the proofreading, and we need someone to support it in the future. Zhang Ning's thoughts turned to lightning, and he saluted again: "The kid hasn't thought about it yet, as long as Grandpa Guo promises the kid one thing." ”
Do you dare to say, if you want to kill someone, the British duke will also help you kill it? The sons and daughters of the nobles all looked at Zhang Ning with idiot eyes, how could the British Duke agree to such marginal conditions? I guess I'll kick you kid out.
Liu Nian was stunned, A-Ning is crazy?
"Promise you one thing?" Zhang Fu's expression remained unchanged, and he did not get angry because Zhang Ning opened his mouth.
"Exactly. As long as it is a matter of loyalty and patriotism, the grandfather of the country cannot shirk. Zhang Ning was very calm.
Someone scoffed: "What loyal and patriotic? I think I want Grandpa Guo to help you fight. ”
As soon as the words fell, the children of Xun Gui burst into laughter, what else did Zhang Ning have to do besides fighting?
Zhang Fu raised his hand to stop the noble disciples and said, "Okay, as long as it is beneficial to Sheji and Your Majesty, the old man will help you." He raised his palms as he spoke.
Zhang Ning was a little confused, what to do?
"A-Ning, quickly high-five Grandpa Guo." Liu Nian's eyes fell to the ground, but he didn't expect the British Duke to agree.
High-five oath? Think too much of me, right? Zhang Ning went up and slapped Zhang Fu three times.
Zhang Fu said: "Remember, if you are not on the list, you must be grounded for three years." ”
The sons and daughters of Xun Gui laughed, Jiang is still old and spicy, and the British prince wants to convince this kid.
Liu Nian's face turned pale, in case the emperor planned to appease Wara, how could A-Ning get through?
"That's nature." Zhang Ning said confidently.
Zhang Fu nodded, and was about to go to the wing room to rest, when the scribe came over and said, "Grandpa Guo, the time has come." ”
At the right time, the proofreading begins.
The test questions were written by the emperor himself, and at the end of the day, the little eunuch sent them from the palace, opened them in front of Zhang Fu, and then pasted them on the sign. The little eunuch who sent the test questions this time was Jia Xiaosi.
A total of four or five hundred children of the honorable people who participated in the school parade sat down at one table for each person, and a scribe with a short beard walked slowly with a sign holding up a sign with only five words on it: "He Ce Anwara."
Liu Nian saw the words on the sign clearly, his heart was shocked, the news was correct, where did A-Ning know the title? He watched the scribe walk by until he turned the corner and walked to another row of tables.
The proofreading is not as strict as the imperial examination, not a three-foot-wide and three-foot-long cubicle, but one person and one table, with a distance of about three feet between the tables, and a half-zhang wide passage between the rows of tables, which at first glance looks a bit like a modern examination room.
The scribe walked through the passages with the sign to make sure that each noble child could read the words on the sign.
Zhang Ning smiled slightly after seeing the words on the brand, opened the small box on the table, and took out a hollow carved two auspicious clouds from it.
Zhang Ning inquired that the school review was not like the imperial examination, and there was no need to search the body when entering the examination room, so he decided to put it on again when he saw the test questions, so that he had a quarter of an hour to answer the questions.
He must finish the question in a quarter of an hour, or else it will turn bad luck and who knows what will happen?
The jade pendant emitted a clear light, but it was blocked by the table, and no one noticed.
Zhang Ning quickly sharpened the ink, spread out the paper after grinding the ink, put the pen on the dragon and snake, wrote out the strategy that had been written three days ago and memorized in the past two days, checked it, and handed in the paper immediately after confirming that there were no mistakes.
So fast? Many Xungui children were still grinding ink while thinking about how to answer the question, and suddenly saw someone get up to hand in the paper, startled, and when they saw that it was Zhang Ning, they looked disapplieving, this kid was willing to hand in the white paper.
Liu Nian sharpened the ink pen and wrote dozens of words, and when he saw Zhang Ning handing over the paper, he was not surprised at all, but just accelerated the speed of writing. He decided to listen to his father and focus on appeasement. My father had already written a good strategy for him to memorize, and he wrote it silently. The difficulty is to speculate on the divine will, not how to write this article.
At the very front of the examination room, there was a half-foot-high platform with a table and an officer's hat chair on the platform. This is the examiner's seat.
Zhang Fu sent Jia Xiaosi away, sat down on the seat, and a slightly chubby scribe served tea. Before he had time to take a sip, Zhang Ning handed over the paper.
It's not so fast, is it? Zhang Fu took the roll, put it on the table first, and said, "If you don't want to be grounded, you can enlist in the army." Starting from a small soldier, as long as you fight bravely to kill the enemy, there will always be meritorious deeds. ”
Zhang Ning causes trouble outside every day, who is the person who can stay in the house? How is it different from being grounded and wanting his life? Zhang Fu high-fived him, just to use his strengths to let him enlist in the army.
He likes to fight, so let's go and kill the enemy.
Zhang Ning said: "Grandpa Guo will look at the kid's roll first." ”
Zhang Fu shook his head and sighed, "Go ahead." ”
How can it be possible to finish answering the paper in less than a quarter of an hour? Even if you write, you can't have insightful insights.
Zhang Ning did not argue and bowed out of the examination room.
Outside, many guards waited for their master to finish the exam, and when they saw Zhang Ning coming out so quickly, they all showed disdain and handed over the papers, right?
Ren Rong and Senior Brother Gao greeted each other with a worried face.
Zhang Ning said: "Let's go to the teahouse and sit for a while, and then go back when Liu Gongzi comes out." ”
He believed that Liu Nian would not be unprepared and would not have to wait too long.
The three of them left the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies in front of the second and the second, found a nearby teahouse, and sat by the window. Ren Rong hesitated for a long time and said, "Childe, it's nothing if you can't pass the exam, but you and Grandpa Guo high-fived and bet ......"
The bet had spread among the guards, and there was everything, so much so that he and the tall brother were eager for a hole in the ground that they could get into.
Zhang Ning untied the jade pendant and put it in the box, feeling relieved. After leaving the examination room, he was worried that a quarter of an hour would come, and he would turn bad luck, so he spoke and acted very carefully. In order not to arouse suspicion, he did not remove the jade pendant in public.
"Facts speak louder than words." He said.
After Xiao Er left for tea, Ren Rong continued: "Childe is sure? ”
"Of course."
Where did he get his confidence? Ren Rong and Senior Brother Gao are full of worries, Gongzi won't have a bad brain, right?
