According to historical records, Yang Yiqing, whose name is Yingning, is a native of Dantu in Zhenjiang Prefecture, Nanzhili, whose ancestral home is Anning, Yunnan, and is a virtuous minister, politician and military strategist of the Ming Dynasty. Yang Yiqing has gone through Chenghua, Hongzhi and Zhengde. The Jiajing Fourth Dynasty, an official for more than 50 years, an official to the first assistant of the cabinet, known as "the general into the prime minister, Wende martial arts", talent comparable to the Tang Dynasty famous minister Yao Chong.

As a traverser from later generations, if you don't know Yang Yiqing, then you are no different from an idiot. Zhou Zhi was a liberal arts graduate from a well-known university in later generations, so he was naturally very familiar with Yang Yiqing, and he also admired him.

Zhou Zhi clearly remembered that he had read some records about Yang Yiqing studying and learning in later generations, and these records alone made Zhou Zhi dumbfounded and sighed to himself.

Yang Yiqing, known as a prodigy since he was a child, his father Yang Jing believes that the prodigy is not only "the heaven of acceptance" but also the "person who receives", so Yang Jing and his wife discipline Yang Yiqing very strictly.

When Yang Yiqing was two years old, his mother drew the ground as characters and taught him to read and write in his infancy. As long as Yang Yiqing has seen it once, he will not forget it, which can be described as a recitation. His father, Yang Jing, often accompanied him into his studies until late at night.

Yang Yiqing is smart and studious, and often goes to the temple at night to read with the help of the ever-bright lamp.

It is precisely because of the careful guidance and teaching of his parents, as well as his own hard work, that Yang Yiqing read a lot of books when he was a child, read and memorized the four books and five classics, and read all the classics and literature. At the age of seven, he showed an extraordinary talent and was able to write good articles.

The county school teacher of Dantu County, Zhenjiang Prefecture, thought that there was really no need for a prodigy like Yang Yiqing to go to the county school, and there was no need to take the small exam. So, he directly asked Yang Yiqing to bypass Xiucai and go directly to Nanjing Guozijian to study. Yang Yiqing lived up to expectations, at the age of 14, he took the township examination high school Xie Yuan, at the age of 18, he ascended to Chenghua for eight years, and at the age of 21, he began to officially become an official.

Through the Ming Dynasty, Zhou Zhi even worshipped Yang Yiqing as an idol. He secretly thought that Yang Yiqing was admitted to the Jinshi at the age of eighteen, and he would not delay for a moment, and he would have to wait until the twelfth year of Hongzhi to be admitted to the Jinshi, and he was already nineteen years old at that time, as if he was one year older than Yang Yiqing.

Moreover, Yang Yiqing's martial arts and character are really not bad. If he wants to keep up with Yang Yiqing in the future, he still needs to work hard, and he can't relax for a moment.

At this time, Yang Yiqing was sitting in the main hall, very close to himself, and Zhou Zhi's heart also jumped with excitement.

Zhou Zhi is the head of the case, so he naturally wants to be the first to step forward and salute Yang Yiqing, Peng Ze and others. Zhou Zhi secretly took a few deep breaths, tried his best to calm his mood, raised his head and chest, strode to Yang Yiqing's approach, knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Xiucai and the like saw that officials such as the county magistrate could not kneel, Zhou Zhi had just passed the government examination at this time, and he was a child, and the officials naturally had to kneel and worship. Moreover, at this time, he met a famous figure in the history of the Ming Dynasty, and now he is the right deputy capital of the Inspectorate, the great master of the North Zhili Inspectorate, and the dignified member of the three products.

Zhou Zhilang said, "Zhou Zhi, a student from Qingdu County, knocks on the school officer!" ”

The voice is clear and the manners are decent, but it shows great respect for Yang Yiqing while not being humble or arrogant.

Yang Yiqing nodded lightly.

This time, Yang Yiqing came to Baoding Mansion to inspect the government test, but it was actually just a routine matter. Today is just in time for the release of the government examination list, so Yang Yiqing came up with the idea of seeing the candidates. Of course, this is actually just a formality, after all, he is a member of the third grade, and he doesn't pay much attention to such a trivial matter as the government exam, and what he saw today is only a child, and Yang Yiqing doesn't pay much attention to it.

It's not that Yang Yiqing is arrogant, but that his official position is there, and his vision is naturally much higher.

However, he glanced at Zhou Zhi a few more times at this time. Zhou Zhi is the head of the government examination, and he has also seen Zhou Zhi's examination papers, the article is indeed well written, and I heard that Zhou Zhi only handed in the examination papers in less than an hour, which made Yang Yiqing still have some interest in Zhou Zhi.

You must know that in the north of the Ming Dynasty, especially in remote counties such as Wanxian County and Qingdu County, there are very few readers themselves, and the level of composition is much worse than that of readers in those rich places in the south of the Yangtze River. But the article written by Zhou Zhifu, a poor boy from the countryside, is not inferior to the head of the Jiangnan Mansion.

Yang Yiqing immediately nodded slightly, and said, "Get up, although your house test is expensive, you must not be arrogant and arrogant, remember to 'full of losses, humble benefits.'" ’”

Zhou Zhi hurriedly said, "The student has written it down!" ”

Then he stood up and stepped forward to see the prefect Peng Ze.

Zhou Zhi and Peng Ze have known each other for a long time, and Peng Ze has already said that he wants Zhou Zhi to call him uncle, and Peng Ze is still quite satisfied with Zhou Zhi's examination for the first place in the Zhongfu examination.

Although he and Zhou Zhi are relatively close, but at this time, on such an occasion, especially in front of Yang Yiqing, the student officer, and the nine candidates, he naturally didn't reveal too much, but just symbolically said to Zhou Zhi simply, "Although you are the head of the government examination, there is still a gap between you and the candidates in those talented places in the south of the Yangtze River, and you still need to continue to work hard in the future." ”

Zhou Zhi met Peng Ze, and then met Bian Dasheng, the magistrate of Wanxian County, Dude, the magistrate of Tang County, and Sima Vigil of Boye Zhixian County.

Bian Dasheng and Du De both greeted Zhou Zhi with a smile, they valued Zhou Zhi's talent and learning, and on the other hand, they looked at the face of Chen Guangyao, the county governor of Qingdu. Zhou Zhixian tried to take the first exam, so it was naturally a student of Chen Guangyao, the county magistrate. At this time, he was courteous to Zhou Zhi, which naturally gave Chen Guanghui enough face.

Especially the magistrate of Wanxian County, Bian Dasheng, almost stood up, looked Zhou Zhi up and down, closed his mouth with joy, and said again and again, "Zhou Zhi is a talent, this time I took the first place in the government examination, as long as it takes time, the future will definitely be limitless!" You are a talent in our Wanxian County and Qingdu County! ”

His enthusiastic performance is naturally not just to give Chen Guangyao face. Bian Dasheng and Sima Vigil did not get along, and Sima Vigil repeatedly threatened that the head of this government trial case was none other than Liu Long of the Boye Liu family. But in the end, it was taken away by Zhou Zhi, which undoubtedly slapped Sima Vigil's face hard. At this time, the enthusiasm he showed was a kind of contempt and ridicule for Sima Vigil.

Of course, Bian Dasheng also knew that Zhou Zhi was a student of Liu Yu in Lixian County, and he was so close to Zhou Zhi, he naturally wanted to have an intersection with Liu Yu, and Liu Yu's network was quite extensive, if he was really related to Liu Yu, it would definitely be beneficial to his future.

Hehe! This is Sima Vigil who does not know the relationship between Zhou Zhi and the prefect Peng Ze, it is estimated that if he knows, Sima Vigil at this time will be more enthusiastic about Zhou Zhi.

Liu Long, Yue Shuzhen and the top ten others in the government examination behind Zhou Zhi all learned from Zhou Zhi one by one, and met Yang Yiqing, Peng Ze and the magistrates of the four counties.

The last ten people stood side by side, and Yang Yiqing's face was solemn to start a brief unified admonition.
