Zhou Zhi knew very well that Chen Zonghe, the patriarch of the Chen family, was a villain who would repay him, if he had an idea in his heart before that he would not retaliate against the Zhou family, then today, Chen Zonghe broke off his thoughts, and he would definitely try his best to deal with the Zhou family.

The Chen family was originally a big family and had a close relationship with the people in the county government, and now there is an additional Taoist Li Shun, thinking that their revenge will definitely not use those small tricks like Chen Wenju secretly dealt with himself before.

But the current Zhou family is no longer comparable to the past, and the Zhou family has now entered the ranks of the wealthy families in Baiyue Village. What's more important is that Zhou Zhi is by no means a poor boy who only knows how to act recklessly and does not care about any consequences like before. Now Zhou Zhifeng reads poetry and books, has a lot of scheming, and has also made friends with characters such as group leader Lu Xingchuan and Xiucai Fan Jin Wei Haogu.

Although Fan Jin and Wei Haogu have no background, Lu Xingchuan is a well-known figure, in addition to having a great relationship with Bo Ouyang Zheng, the lord of Qingdu County, he also has a deep background. Zhou Zhi had already learned from Fan Import that Lu Xingchuan's uncle's family was the Hou family of the family in Xin County, Baoding Prefecture.

The Hou family is a family of scholars, and Lu Xingchuan's uncle's name is Hou Guan, who is a Jinshi in Chenghua for 14 years, and now serves as a member of the Ministry of Officials. Although he is only an official from the fifth grade, he has real power in his hands, and is responsible for inspecting and evaluating the state capitals and civil officials serving in Beijing.

Hou Guan's father, Hou Zan, was a well-known figure in the Ming Dynasty, and he was the official of the Nanjing Military Department, and the counselor of the Military Department. After Zhishi, he was crowned as a doctor of Ronglu, which can be described as infinitely beautiful.

Hou Guan's son, that is, Lu Xingchuan's cousin Hou Tiannian, is twenty-one years old, but now he is also a lifter.

Lu Xingchuan has such relatives, so naturally no one dares to mess with him in this countryside. And Zhou Zhi and Lu Xingchuan are quite close, thinking that if the Chen family wants to take revenge on the Zhou family, they must also weigh it.

The Zhou family and the Chen family seem to be rivals today, and the Chen family will retaliate sooner or later. But at this time, Zhou Zhi didn't take these things very seriously, and everything had to be important. Now is not the time to focus on preventing and dealing with the Chen family, it is important to hurry up and study, write a good eight-strand essay, and take the exam before coming out.

So in the next few days, the Chen family's proposal was as if it had never happened, and Zhou Zhi still concentrated on reading and practicing words every day.

In the past few days, he has carefully written six eight-strand essays, and Zhou Zhi finished breakfast early, so he took these six eight-strand essays to Lu Xingchuan for review and consultation.

Under the active campaign of Fan Jin, the literary association that Lu Xingchuan intended to set up already had a small scale, and now there are several people such as Fan Jin, Wei Haogu, Feng Mao, Qiu Haolan, Che Lang, and Yue Shuzhen of the Yue family.

Today happened to be the day of the small gathering of the Wenhui, Zhou Zhi had just walked into the courtyard of the Lu family, Wei Haogu and Che Lang greeted him and said, "Brother Zhou Zhixian wants to come here and have another great work today, quickly take it to the study and let me wait for a look." ”

Don't look at Zhou Zhi as just a white body, but he reads very quickly and has the ability to never forget. These days, Zhou Zhi's eight-strand essay has also improved a lot, and the analysis of things is very clear, although they are talented children and the like, no one underestimates Zhou Zhi.

Zhou Zhi smiled modestly, "I did bring six articles and eight shares today, but they are all clumsy, hehe!" I still have to ask my brothers for advice. ”

The three of them talked and laughed, and had already walked into the study.

There were already Lu Xingchuan and Fan Jin in the study, and each of them was holding an article in their hands at this time and watching it carefully, which was brought by Wei Haogu today.

After a few people sat down, Zhou Zhi immediately took an article and read it carefully.

When they get together, most of them are to study each other's articles, learn from each other's strengths, and sometimes have to discuss them, and they have made progress together.

It didn't take long, Feng Mao and Qiu Haolan also came and sat down.

Zhou Zhi took out his six articles and asked everyone to review and comment.

Yue Shuzhen was supervised and supervised by the old lady of the Yue family all day because of his strict family education, and there was a special gentleman hired by the family with a high salary, so although he was a member of the composition club, many times he could not participate in such activities.

Among the people present, except for Zhou Zhi and Lu Xingchuan, the rest are talented. Among them, Fan Jin and Che Lang are shengsheng, while Wei Haogu, Qiu Haolan and Feng Mao are proliferating. Although they no longer study in the county school, they must take the annual examination every year. The annual examination has to reclassify the level of Xiucai, if it is a fifth or sixth class, then the reputation of Xiucai will be abolished.

This year's annual exam is imminent, and several talents dare not slack off, and they are all actively preparing for the exam.

Che Lang's family lives in Huangyan Village, his family is wealthy, he is only 25 years old, erudite and talented, and is very appreciated by Qu Renbin, the county school teacher.

Che Lang has to go to Qingdu County once every ten days and a half months to report to Qu Renbin about his reading in the past few days. Of course, the eight-strand essay he made must also pick out a few good ones to bring, so that Qu Renbin can comment and give guidance.

Speaking of the teachings of the county school, Qu Renbin, who was more than seventy years old, was admitted to the examination in the Tianshun years, and then he repeatedly failed the exam, so he simply taught in the county school and did his studies in a down-to-earth manner.

At such an age, he has become an old scholar who has learned a lot of money. Especially in the writing of Baguwen, he is famous in the entire Qingdu County, and Cheng Kecheng in Gaochang Town is a little behind him.

Although Fan Jin and other Xiucai also knew Qu Renbin, they couldn't compare to Che Lang and his close relationship after all. Therefore, every time Che Lang brought Bagu Wen to Qu Renbin to comment, he had to bring a few articles by Fan Jin and Wei Haogu and others.

Of course, with Qu Renbin's eyesight, he can naturally really see whether it was Che Lang who did it. can see that on Che Lang's face, Qu Renbin still commented very carefully. It is with Che Lang's help that Fan Jin and others' Baguwen has also made a lot of progress in recent months.

About an hour passed, and several people exchanged and reviewed all the eight strands of text.

Che Lang suddenly held an article and said, "Everyone, please see, Brother Zhou Zhixian's eight-strand writing is excellent, I have read all the eight-strand articles today, and this one is the only one that makes me refreshed, I don't know what you think?" ”

Zhou Zhi saw clearly that the eight-strand text in Che Lang's hand was an eight-strand essay with the title of "Zi Yue" that he had spent three days of hard work and painstakingly pondered. This article is taken from the four books, and Zhou Zhi first broke the topic with "Pifu is the teacher of the world, and in a word is the law of the world".

This solution does not contain any words in the title, but it is very thorough to say the words "son" and "say".

The whole text is concise and concise, and it is neatly integrated in rhetoric.

After this eight-strand essay was written, Zhou Zhi was also very satisfied, thinking that there was not much difference between it and the subset of Shiwen he had read.

You must know that the collection of essays that Zhou Zhi reads are all from very good eight-strand articles made by Jinshi or Juren.

Wei Haogu also echoed, "Indeed, Brother Zhou Zhixian's "Zi Said" is extraordinary, but it has not been seen for a month, and Brother Zhou Zhixian's eight strands of literature have made great progress. ”

Later, Lu Xingchuan, Fan Jin and the others also reviewed it again, and they couldn't help but nod secretly, and cast appreciative and admiring glances at Zhou Zhi.

Che Lang then sighed, "If someone among us can write such an article, it is also a good article for this article to be formed." ”

Fan Jin glanced at Zhou Zhi, and finally looked at Che Lang, and said, "Brother Zhou Zhixian's article is done well, why don't you bother Brother Che Lang to bring it tomorrow and let Sect Qu review and comment on it." ”
