"That is Qin Zihao, the most outstanding young man of the Qin family in Xiguan."

"I heard that this Qin Zihao was enlightened at the age of three, well-read and strong, extremely smart, five years old can skillfully recite the four books and five classics, at the age of seven proficient in the biblical commentaries, at the age of ten began to practice composition, now at the age of thirteen, the literary skills have been in the fire, really a genius!"

"Tsk! With the protection of the big tree of the Qin family, and Qin Zihao is so talented and smart, maybe the generation of the Qin family in Wuxi will be the champion. ”

Zheng Hao listened to the discussions of the people around him, and said in his heart, Wuxi has been a big county for scientific examination since ancient times, since the Sui and Tang dynasties opened the scientific examination to the end of the Qing Dynasty to take the imperial examination system, a small Wuxi has produced five or six hundred scholars, and at the same time formed several scientific research families, these big families are the noble families in Wuxi County.

And the Qin family is indeed a number of local imperial examination families in Wuxi, they have a long fortune, talents from generation to generation, and there are one or two Jinshi with the title of the gold list from generation to generation, which can be described as a real wealthy family with profound heritage.

Such a great family attaches the most importance to the cultivation of offspring, and spares no effort for the cultivation of potential new generations.

He was thinking this, but he heard someone talking around him, but this time it was on him.

"This time, Qin Zihao must be determined to win the first case in this county. Presumably, the county will also be able to achieve this beautiful thing. ”

"That's not necessarily, haven't you heard that Zheng Hao, who wrote 'marrying Dongfeng Chun', also participated in the county exam this time? Zheng Hao is a celebrity in front of the county lord, I can hear others tell me, Zheng Hao has a great kindness to the county, he not only saved the county respect's beloved daughter, but also helped the county to eradicate Chang Bin who has been evil in the county for many years. How could the county lord not favor his own family? ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, I heard the people around the county zun say that the county zun of the county test has made it clear that Zheng Hao has been clearly pointed, even if the Qin family is powerful, it can't change this result."

Zheng Hao couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard these people say this.

He really didn't have that much ambition, and he hadn't thought about it before, he had to take the case.

This thing is a hot yam for him. Why? is because he has a close relationship with the county, if Cheng Zhixian really ordered himself to be the head of the case, it is estimated that it will really provoke outsiders to criticize him for favoritism.

For Zheng Hao, it is enough to successfully pass the three levels, and when he takes the college examination, he will get a talent and fame, let himself enter the scholar class, and be accepted by the literati group.

Who made this moth?

Just when Zheng Hao was depressed, over there, Qin Zihao also heard those discussions.

Qin Zihao, Ming Jiewei, Zihao. This child has been very smart since he was a child, and he is very favored by his family, and his self-esteem is extremely high.

This time he participated in the county examination, and he was indeed determined to win the honor of being the head of the county case.

Now he heard others talk about it, and a man named Zheng Hao was very likely to snatch the head of the case from his hands, which made him frown.

Qin Zihao has always been immersed in studying compositions at home, and he has never had any entertainment, and he doesn't know anything about Zheng Hao, who has recently emerged and has some fame in Wuxi and even Jiangnan.

"Ding Quan, what is the origin of this Zheng Hao?" Qin Zihao turned his head and asked a family.

"Young master, I heard that he is the son of a merchant in this county, his parents died early, only he is left, some time ago, he saved the daughter of the county in the city, and then at the poetry meeting held by Zhou Shimao with a poem Tang Duoling. Yongliu became famous and got the opportunity to be alone with the prostitute Bian Yujing; Later, this Zheng Hao gave the county counselor to destroy the vicious Xu Li Changbin and his gang in one fell swoop, so that the county's public security was good; Recently, he wrote another poem called "Yongshi", and I read it to the young master...... "Ding Dingquan told Zheng Hao's origin.

Then, he read both of Zheng Hao's poems again.

Qin Zihao pouted: "This little word and that poem are still a little interesting, however, poetry is the last skill after all, and it is nothing to make two crooked poems and small words, or the most important thing is the current text!" How is his writing? ”

"Back to the young master, the news I got is that Zheng Hao had never written a current article before deciding to participate in this county exam; It was only after he signed up for the county exam that he began to practice writing in the current language. Ding Quandao.

"Is this possible? Hehehe! Writing in current literature is the most important thing to be honed, and it is impossible to become a climate without years of hard training! I know. Qin Zihao smiled contemptuously and said.

After listening to Jiading's talk about Zheng Hao, Qin Zihao was also relieved.

He thought to himself, this Zheng Hao is not enough to worry about.

If the county is favoritism for the sake of kindness, his Qin family is not a vegetarian, so he has to give Cheng Zhixian a little color.

Presumably Cheng Zhixian won't be so blind, right?

Cheng Zhixian was standing outside the main entrance of the examination room at this moment, watching the situation outside the venue.

Master Mr. Zhang stood with Cheng Zhixian.

"Dong Weng, did you really ask Zheng Hao to be the head of the case in this county test?" Mr. Zhang asked Cheng Zhixian softly.

Cheng Zhixian glanced at Mr. Zhang: "Yunqi, who are you listening to this?" I don't think I've ever said anything like that, do I? ”

"Dong Weng, the scholars in the city are talking like this, saying that you are grateful for Zheng Hao's kindness and have decided to give him the head of the case." Mr. Zhang said with a worried face, "Dong Weng, I foolishly think that this is very bad, it will provoke criticism, and it will also offend the Qin family." ”

"Ridiculous! This rumor is inexplicable, and there are always some people who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic! Cheng Zhixian frowned and said.

"What do you mean, is there no such thing?" Mr. Zhang glanced at Cheng Zhixian cautiously.

"Exactly, I have never said to anyone that I want to point the case to Zheng Hao, and I didn't mean this before! It's just that if someone wants to manipulate the results of the county test with this, maybe I will really consider Zheng Hao as the head of the case! Cheng Zhixian said unhappily.

Cheng Zhixian was really a little unhappy.

Originally, there are many powerful people in Wuxi County, big families abound, and there may be one or two Jinshi people in any street or alley. These people are all privileged, and it is not easy to control them.

To be the magistrate of Wuxi, there are many times when you have to swallow your anger.

Cheng Zhixian was already very breathless.

This time, before the county test started, someone actually created rumors to put pressure on him, which aroused Cheng Zhixian's annoyance.

No matter how you say it, the Cheng family can be regarded as a wealthy family in the Jiangnan imperial examination, and there is also a lot of power in the imperial court and the local government. It is not so easy to make Cheng Zhixian succumb to a wealthy family.

Especially this Qin family, or a political family that does not deal with the Cheng family much, Cheng Zhixian feels that this time, it is necessary to fight back against the other party.
