Yang Yiqing said that if the Confucian boy passed the government examination, he was a child. Although Tong Sheng is the lowest among scholars, he is a formal scholar, and it is the beginning of the future examination for fame.

The ten people in front of me are the leaders of this government examination, and they are naturally the best among children. At present, the political clarity of the imperial court is a good opportunity for scholars to show their ambitions. He hopes that these ten people will make unremitting efforts to successfully pass the Taoist examination in May, and then pay close attention to the township examination, the examination, and finally become an official, and do something beneficial for the Ming court and the people of the world.

In short, it is nothing more than words to motivate these children present.

Although Yang Yiqing said it very briefly, he said it in his thick voice, sonorous and powerful, and it was very flavorful, and the children present were still enthusiastic about it, and then secretly made up their minds that they would study harder after returning home.

After listening to the teachings, the children led by Zhou Zhi bowed deeply to Yang Yiqing very respectfully, Yang Yiqing smiled slightly and waved his hand.

The prefect Peng Ze is the chief examiner of this government examination, the one who wrote the questions, and the one who marks the papers, so he naturally said a few words briefly, and the content is roughly similar to Yang Yiqing's, and then after the children thanked Peng Ze, they turned around and left the county hall.

Zhou Zhi just took two steps, and suddenly heard Peng Ze say casually, "Lord Yang, seeing that it is getting late, Lord Yang is busy every day, since he came to this ten thousand counties, the lower officials have not officially picked up the wind for Lord Yang, why don't we take the wind for Lord Yang tonight, how about I wait for Lord Yang to pick up the wind?" ”

"Huh! Master Peng is still so polite, and it is difficult to resist the hospitality, and the official listens to it! Yang Yiqing said indifferently.

At this time, Yang Yiqing's eyes were still focused on the children who were slowly walking out. His move didn't really mean anything, it was just a casual action. But Peng Ze had an idea and said, "Zhou Zhi, you stay, Lord Yang still has something to say." ”

Yang Yiqing was stunned, but since Peng Ze said so, Yang Yiqing did not object as usual.

It's just that Peng Ze's words made those children envy Zhou Zhi to death.

Zhou Zhi took the head of the government examination, which is already extremely enviable, and at this time, the scholar still wants to leave him alone to speak, this week Zhou Zhi has taken a lot of luck.

Alas! People are more angry than people!

At this time, envy is useless, who makes Zhou Zhicai outstanding and takes the first exam.

Liu Long was not only envious of Zhou Zhike, his eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes were red, and he was jealous for a while.

The head of this case was originally my Liu Long's, but why did God not open his eyes so much, but it fell on Zhou Zhi, could it be that I, Liu Long, did something wrong?

Alas! Maybe it's too proud, too underestimating the enemy.

Although Wanxian County, Boye County, Qingdu County and Tang County are all small places, they should not be underestimated.

Speaking of which, Liu Long is not the kind of hopeless person, at this time he is jealous and hateful to Zhou Zhi, but he also knows that the government examination is based on real talent, and he did not pass the first test, that is because he has not learned enough.

He knows how to find the cause from himself, which is still very valuable.

Zhou Zhi was excited when he heard that the prefect Peng Ze wanted to stay by himself. You know, this is a good opportunity to get close to Yang Yiqing.

In fact, Zhou Zhi had already discovered that although he had passed the government examination, Yang Yiqing didn't really care much about himself, and he didn't care much about himself. It's no wonder that in the one-year government examination of the Ming Dynasty, I don't know how many government test leaders will be produced, and how can I make waves in the heart of such a big man.

Since there is another opportunity, then this time you must not let it go easily, and you must leave a deep impression in Yang Yiqing's heart.

Thinking like this, Zhou Zhi stopped and turned around.

Yang Yiqing, Peng Ze, and the four prefects had already stood up, and Bian Dasheng said indifferently to Zhou Zhi, "Zhou Zhi, since the prefect and the scholar Lord Yang still have something to tell you, come with us to the back house!" ”

This is the county government of Wanxian County, and the magistrate of Wanxian County is the host. They are all people who mix in the officialdom, Bian Dasheng is naturally very shrewd, he easily judged from Peng Ze's simple sentence that he wanted to leave Zhou Zhi, and Peng Ze may have some relationship in it. He couldn't help but be very happy, in this way, he and Zhou Zhi were close, and he could naturally please Peng Ze.

If you really get in touch with Peng Ze, walk into Peng Ze's heart, and become Peng Ze's person, this is undoubtedly a very lucky thing for Bian Dasheng, who has no backing. So at this time, Bian Dasheng was even more enthusiastic about Zhou Zhi.

Zhou Zhi hurriedly nodded in agreement, and followed them to the back house.

Bian Dasheng quickly ordered to go down, and in a short time, a sumptuous banquet was set up in the main hall of the back house.

Yang Yiqing still didn't pay too much attention to Zhou Zhi, and sat around the table with Peng Ze and others, talking and laughing, but very hearty and heroic.

The people present are all officials of the imperial court, Yang Yiqing is the third grade, Peng Ze is the fourth grade, and the four magistrates are also the seventh grade officials, and Zhou Zhi just had the identity of a little child, they were seated at the table, but where could Zhou Zhi sit down around the table without knowing what to do?

Zhou Zhi just cautiously lowered his hands and stood at the table.

It was Peng Ze who said with a smile, "Lord Yang, don't tell your lordship that this Zhou Zhi and Xia Guan have actually known each other for a long time, and he once saved the lives of Xia Guan and the dogs!" ”

Yang Yiqing was stunned for a moment, but then smiled and said, "Zhou Zhi's article has been seen by the official, hehe!" The head of the case is well deserved, and Mr. Peng does not need to say much, the official can trust Mr. Peng to read the file impartially and fairly. ”

Peng Ze and Yang Yiqing have actually known each other for a long time, and Peng Ze has long heard that Yang Yiqing is an honest official, and has always respected and admired Yang Yiqing. It's just that because the two have different official positions and are not officials together, they don't have much contact.

However, Yang Yiqing is such a shrewd person, a pair of eyes are like watching fire, he has been an official for more than 20 years, and at this time he is the right capital of the Inspectorate, so he naturally knows Peng Ze very well as an official, and he admires Peng Ze very much.

"Thank you, Lord Yang, for trusting me!" Peng Ze picked up the wine cup and said.

Yang Yiqing slowly took a sip of wine and said, "This official doesn't know how Zhou Zhi saved people this time, and I would like to ask Master Peng to tell me in detail!" ”

Don't look at this casual question, Chen Guangyao was happy in his heart, and Zhou Zhi was also excited in his heart. This shows that Yang Yiqing finally shifted his attention to Zhou Zhi, and paid some attention to Zhou Zhi.

Peng Ze didn't dare to slack off, nor did he dare to hide it in the slightest, so he told in detail how Zhou Zhi saved his wife and son.

Yang Yiqing couldn't help but nod when he heard it.

In fact, although Yang Yiqing is a literati and an official who only went through the imperial examination, he looks down on the nerdy and sour spirit of the literati. In his opinion, literati should also have a strong body, and they should also have a heroic and brave spirit, so that they are real men.

Otherwise, Yang Yiqing would not have resisted foreign aggression in the future, stationed at the border passes, and worked in the position of the trilateral general system for many years.

After listening to Peng Ze, Yang Yiqing focused his eyes on Zhou Zhi and said, "Zhou Zhi, come and sit." ”
