Chapter 466: The Matter of the Lip Fight
The little official glanced at the two letters of recommendation in front of him while sipping the tea in his hand.
Ma Zheng is not a fool, and when he saw the officials in the classics hall and the officials in the books hall whispering, he knew that he had bad intentions.
He was worried, and now he saw that he had handed over the letter of recommendation, and he could register for school as long as the little official checked the authenticity, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief!
Maybe it was because he was too nervous just now, he felt a little dry and itchy in his throat, thinking that it might be over after a while, but the more he endured it, the more dry and itchy his throat became, and he really couldn't help it.
So he coughed softly!
Ma Zheng could swear to the sky, he really just coughed lightly, and the voice was so small that he couldn't hear it even if he was a little farther away. But for some reason, when he coughed lightly, he heard a thunder in the ears of the little official opposite, which made the little official tremble, and the teacup in his hand fell directly, and the tea was all poured on his and Li Feibai's recommendation.
The little official was startled, and hurriedly wiped it with his sleeve in a hurry, this wipe didn't matter, he directly wiped the handwriting on the recommendation letter, and even the seal was wiped paste.
Although the words on the recommendation letter and the words on the seal can be distinguished if you carefully distinguish them, the letter of recommendation is black and red, which is really a bit unusual.
Ma Zheng has been in Guozijian for more than ten years, and he knows that the documents of the Ming Dynasty are neat and clean, and in the Guozijian, a place that trains officials for the Ming Dynasty, this requirement is even more so.
Over the years, some inmates have almost lost their qualifications for admission because of the slightest stain on their recommendations, not to mention that they spend all their recommendations?
Sweat oozed from his forehead, and he muttered, "What can I do?" What can I do? ”
The little official sighed: "It's all your fault! If you hadn't coughed and frightened me, how could I have knocked over the teacup and spilled the tea on the recommendation! ”
Ma Zheng begged: "Why don't you be accommodating?" ”
The little officer said, "This is not good! In the end, the recommendation book has to be seen by the book, and now that it has become like this, how can you show it to the book? If I were to show it to the book, would I not be punished by the book, or even lose my job? I don't think it'...... like this."
Ma Zheng's face was pale, and when he heard that things were still going to turn around, he hurriedly said: "Please also ask the little brother to show me a clear way!" ”
The little official said: "Fortunately, there are still a few days before entering school, you two hurry up and take the recommendation letter to the imperial store to find someone to see if you can make up for one!" ”
Ma Zheng was almost crying, and said: "I heard that the recommendation book is a little oily, and it costs ten taels of silver to go to the imperial store to reapply for it." Now that the recommendation has become like this, I am afraid that I will not be able to make up for it for one hundred and eighty taels. ”
The little official said: "If you can't make up for it, then you can spend money to buy another one!" Anyway, you two have money, and a thousand taels of silver is not a piece of cake for you! ”
After that, he poured tea into the teacup again, leaned back against the back of the chair and tasted it slowly.
The horse is like being hit by five thunders! What to do? Originally, the money I borrowed from the country eunuch this time, but now where can I borrow another thousand taels of silver!
Knowing that with today's result, he shouldn't have been bent on becoming an official in the first place, so he shouldn't have worked hard to pass the assessment of Guozijian and become an official!
It's good now, I will definitely not be able to pass the Jinshi examination, and if I leave the Guozijian, I will be disappointed if I want to mix up the real shortage of officials. What should he do from here? Just go home? Where did you get the face to meet Jiangdong's fathers! Besides, he can't go back, he owes so many debts, and everything he can sell at home has been sold, if he can't be an official, what will he use to pay off his debts.
He even has the heart to die, so he no longer cares about face, and as soon as his legs are bent, he will kneel down and bow to the little official, begging him to raise his noble hand flag and give him a horse.
His knees were only weak, and before he knelt on the ground, a strong hand had firmly held him up!
He turned his head and saw that it was Li Feibai!
He never thought that some of his experiences were due to Li Feibai, but he felt that he was connected to Li Feibai's disease, and said with a wry smile: "What can I do?" It's all because I didn't hold back my cough, if I had to hold back that cough, everything would be fine! ”
Li Feibai said: "He did it on purpose!" Without your cough, he would have found other ways to ruin our recommendation! ”
The little official in the pawn hall smiled coldly! didn't expect Li Feibai to see his tricks, even if Li Feibai saw his tricks, he didn't mean to be weak at all.
This kind of thing is a matter of a lawsuit, who complains about who doesn't complain, it's not clear, not to mention that he has three witnesses, two of whom are recommended young talents! Li Feibai and Ma Zheng, these two insignificant guys, even if they say that the sky is broken, no one believes what they say.
He said: "It's useless to say anything now, I think you two should hurry up and make up for the recommendation!" Don't waste time here, if you go late and miss the time to enroll, you will regret it for the rest of your life! ”
The little official in the classic hall smiled: "Yes, hurry up and go to make up for the recommendation, don't stay here and waste time!" ”
Pan and Sheng glanced at each other, and both said secretly: "There is still a way for the subordinates, like this kind of indiscriminate means, I will never be able to think of it." ”
However, the two did not speak, with a thick smile on their faces, waiting to see the show.
Li Feibai said: "The two of us will not go to make up the letter of recommendation!" ”
The little official in the Dianbo Hall shook his head indifferently, and said with a look of respect: "If you don't go to make up for it, it will delay your future, so I can't say anything more!" ”
Li Feibai said: "If the two of us don't make up the recommendation, it won't delay our future." ”
The little official in the pawn hall let out an "oh", became curious, and asked, "Why?" Could it be that you still have some magical powers that can make the recommendation book not recover! ”
Li Feibai said: "I don't have magical powers, so I won't reissue the recommendation, because it wasn't the two of us who damaged the recommendation." Even if you go to reapply for a letter of recommendation, you have to reapply for it, what does it have to do with the two of us! ”
Ma Zhengchu heard Li Feibai say that he would not delay his future, his reaction was the same as that of the officials in the Dianbo Hall, and he also said that Li Feibai had any magical powers! Who knew that Li Feibai would say such a thing later, and when he wanted to stop him, Li Feibai's words were finished.
Ma Zheng's already pale face is even paler!
Originally, there was still room for redemption in this matter, that is, the two of them went to reapply for the letter of recommendation, and when they came to register again, the little official would not embarrass them again because he had already killed them once.
Although he no longer has the money to reapply for a letter of recommendation, the way is all people think, at this time there are still a few days before entering school, what if he thinks of a way to borrow money?
Li Feibai spoke like this, which can be regarded as completely offending the little official! Even if he borrowed money to buy the recommendation book, the little official would definitely think of other ways to destroy the recommendation book, and then there would be no chance to enter the country to study!
Sure enough, the little official was furious and said, "It's just unreasonable, you are a bloody squirting person!" What do you mean by that? Do you mean that I deliberately destroyed the letter of recommendation? If I hadn't been intimidated by his cough, could I have knocked over the teacup? If the teacup is not overturned, can it ruin the recommendation? In the final analysis, the main cause is the cough! ”
Ma Zheng hurriedly played the round and said, "What the little brother said is right, it's my fault!" And tried his best to stop Li Feibai, so that Li Feibai could say anything that would annoy the little official.
Li Feibai ignored Ma Zheng's obstruction, and said: "Don't say that you did it on purpose, even if you didn't mean it, judging from the result, it's all your responsibility, what does it have to do with us!" If you know each other, hurry up and find a way for the two of us? If they don't know each other, they call the books. I don't believe it, there is no place for reason in the world. If the book is not dealt with publicly, I will go and find the sacrificial wine!" ”
The little official said: "If you have the ability, you will go to the priest to drink!" I'd like to see if you two can see adults! After a pause, he said: "You know that the door of the Lord of the Wine Sacrifice is open to the south, and you are looking for the Lord of the Wine Festival!" Come on, get these two vexatious people out of the country and prison for me! ”
