In a garden in Jiangning City, Huang Qunsheng, the head of the Huang family in Jiangning, was sitting idly in the garden, enjoying the warm winter sunshine while sipping tea, holding the latest version of the civil service application guide in his hand and turning a few pages from time to time, but the things in it were far from the Four Books and Five Classics he had studied since childhood, which made him feel a little awkward.

But no matter how awkward he was, he didn't put down his books, and whenever he encountered something he didn't understand, he picked up the other books on the small table and consulted them carefully, looking even more serious than ordinary people preparing for exams.

There was a slight sound of footsteps outside the door, and a fourteen or fifteen child had just come back from outside, and his body was quietly rubbing against the wall towards the inner courtyard, praying in his heart not to let Huang Qunsheng in the courtyard see it.

"Huang Xuan!" , although he didn't look up, but who else could he be in the family besides Huang Xuan who walked like this? Huang Qunsheng shouted.

"Daddy! Do you read a book? When Huang Xuan heard his father's shout, he knew that his whereabouts had been recognized again, and he drooped his head and rubbed to Huang Qunsheng's side step by step.

"Hmmm! How is it in the school today? Huang's father sighed in his heart, his heir is difficult, and now there is only this single seedling left in the main house of the Huang family, I thought he would be able to make a living, but unfortunately he was fine when he used to read the Four Books and Five Classics, but his grades plummeted after going to the middle school affiliated to Jiangning University, which made him very annoyed, and after thinking about it, it was time to talk to him today.

"Dad, what is taught in the school is some deviant things, and the children really don't want to listen to it!" , Huang Xuan said with a bitter face, Huang Qunsheng also won the lifting of people at the beginning, because there was something at home, he didn't go to the capital to catch the exam, and finally solved it but waited for the Red Flower Club to enter the city, but this avoided a big disaster, if he became a Tartar official. It's not a good thing.

"Hey, it looks like I'm delaying you!" In the past few years, he couldn't go to the exam, so he stayed at home to teach this son personally, and the son was also angry, and he read the Four Books and Five Classics well at a young age. Bagu is also written in a good way, and it is not a problem to take a show at this age in previous years, and it is not hopeless to lift people; But now the Red Flower Society doesn't recognize Confucianism, and if you want to be an official, you have to take the civil service exam, this kid has read too many Confucian classics since he was a child, and his brain can't turn around for a while.

"Why did my father say that? Confucian classics are the foundation of our scholars' self-cultivation and unity, and the father taught the child since he was a child, and the child has only gratitude in his heart! Huang Xuan replied in a panic.

"Confused!". Huang Qunsheng secretly shook his head but regretted, this kid was reading a lot, he thought for a while and asked, "Do you know why I let you read the Four Books and Five Classics when you were a child?" ”

"It's for children to cultivate their minds and be sensible people!" , Huang Xuan straightened his waist and replied!

"Ridiculous!" , Huang Qunsheng scolded, "My Jiangning Huang family has the prestige it has now, but it depends on cultivating the mind and cultivating the reason? It's not that the Huang family has been admitted to the Jinshi many times since the previous dynasty. Someone is an official! ”

Seeing that the child was still in a daze, Huang Qunsheng made his words a little clearer. "This royal family let the world's scholars read the Four Books and Five Classics, let's read the Four Books and Five Classics, let us learn the Eight Shares, let's learn the Eight Shares! We will do whatever the Heavenly Family wants us to do, so that the family can prosper forever! You are so stubborn, how can I rest assured that the Huang family will be in your hands? ”

"But Father!". Huang Xuan still wants to distinguish that his father didn't tell him this in the early years!

"Look at the Li family and the Chen family, didn't they send their children to the Middle School Affiliated to Jiangning University?" Huang Qunsheng gave two examples of other big families and said, "One of their families is in the east of the city and the other is in the south of the city. It is so far away from the school, why did you spend a lot of money to buy a courtyard near the middle school in order to let your children go to school? It's not that I want my child to have a good future! ”

Compared with his father's words, he thought about it slowly, Huang Xuan was not a stupid person, but he couldn't turn this corner for a while, and now when Guqin said this, he suddenly remembered that the young master of the Li family and the Chen family was also a saint in the past, but now he is holding arithmetic, gewu and other books and does not release the volume, and his grades are getting better and better every time! Hey, they can figure things out, why can't they figure it out?

"Father, the child understands!" Huang Xuan bowed deeply, looked at the civil service examination materials placed in front of his father and said, "The child will start to concentrate on studying this civil service exam now, and he will definitely have a career in next year's exam!" ”

"Confused again, aren't you?" , Huang Qunsheng shook his head again, the child is still young after all, and he doesn't see the doorways of these worlds very clearly, he pointed to the stone bench next to him and motioned for Huang Xue to sit down, "If it's just for this civil service exam, why do I need to be so solemn?" Although this exam is fresh, it is not difficult, and you can pass it in a few months with a little bit of thinking with your intelligence! But why don't you think about it, why did I send you to the High School Affiliated to Jiangning University? ”

"Please ask my father for advice!" , Huang Xuan felt that he vaguely understood something.

"Although this new dynasty has broken the gap between officials, and the junior officials can be promoted if they do a good job, any new official must also start from the junior officials! At first glance, as long as you are admitted to the civil service, everyone has equal opportunities, but after careful consideration by my father, I also found some doorways! Huang Qunsheng said with a slight expression, "The husband probably inquired about the resumes of the newly promoted officials in the next dynasty in the past two years, and found out the preferences of this new dynasty!" ”

"Oh? What kind of preference is it? It's about his future, Huang Xuan couldn't help but ask.

"My father found that if the two of them have a similar level of work, the new dynasty prefers to promote the younger one! If there are several people who have a chance, the new dynasty likes to promote the one who has studied in college! Huang Qunsheng pointed his fingers and gave a few examples, "From this point of view, the new dynasty also likes to use people who read a lot!" It's just that they don't like people who read Confucian classics! ”

"This is the reason why the father let the child enter Jiangning High School?" , Huang Xuan suddenly realized!

"Exactly, among the middle schools in Jiangning, this school has the most people admitted to university! You can also be admitted to the civil service examination, but without the condition of university, it will not be easy to be promoted in the future! Not to mention how many seniors you can meet in college! This is all the Olympic aid in your officialdom in the future! Then Huang Qunsheng said proudly, "Those people in the market are short-sighted, and when they see that their children know a few words, they let them take the civil service exam, and these people can work hard for most of their lives to be a nine-grade official; Speaking of reading, who are afraid of people from families like us?
