Chapter 147: Han Xiangmo is killed
In addition, this kind of thing happened before, a scathing boss looked down on a poor scholar, and insulted him verbally if he didn't live in the hotel.
As a result, this scholar became a top student in high school, and then the store disappeared.
Therefore, even if these innkeepers in Luoyang City look down on these poor scholars, they will not easily offend them. This has become the unwritten rule of spring once every three years, and they see it as a long-term investment.
There is naturally a risk in investment, and there will naturally be losses if there is a risk, so these bosses will also see it.
Just wait for the end of the spring season in March, who can be on the list.
Under the prosperity and bustle of the imperial city of Luoyang, the people's recent topics have revolved around the Spring Festival, and occasionally some gossip about the family will be mentioned.
The imperial examinations of the previous dynasty were divided into township examinations, guild examinations and palace examinations, and the township examinations were organized by the provinces, and the middle was called Juren. In the spring of the following year, the general examination and the palace examination were held in the capital, and the time of the general examination was on the 9th, 12th, and 15th of the first month of February, with three sessions of three days each, for a total of nine days in the examination. The temple examination is scheduled for April.
However, after the founding of the Southern Tang Dynasty, the founding emperor changed this old system for some reasons, and postponed the time of the examination by one month, changing it to the 9th, 12th, and 15th days of the first month of March, and the palace examination was arranged in early April, and the results of the examination were arranged on the fifth day after the end of the examination, that is, on the twenty-second day of March.
The examination time has long ended, and the results will be announced at noon today.
There are many scholars who have gathered around the bulletin board announcing the results and rankings, and the restaurants and teahouses around the bulletin board have become fragrant and sweet again, and they are basically filled with these talents, or they are a group of people who are for the purpose of finding out the latest news.
As soon as noon arrived, someone posted the people on the list on the notice board, and a group of people poured up, most of them were candidates, and of course there were also people who watched the excitement.
Watching the excitement generally only looks at the top ten on the list, because the first class is basically in the top ten, according to each spring.
Many candidates fell into ecstasy when they saw their names on the list, and many candidates were disappointed and emotionally broken because they failed to pass the exam. The ups and downs of life are vividly expressed in the imperial examination, and he has studied hard for ten years, just to get ahead.
Some people are happy and some are sad, but there are always those who watch the excitement. Tianxiangju has become a place for dignitaries to inquire about news and talk for a while, if these young talents can be subsumed under their own disciples, then their status above the court may be improved in the future.
And the small people in the market are discussing in various tea sheds which three of this year's top ones will come from, so as to become famous in one fell swoop.
"I guess this year's champion will definitely be Li Shilang, a talented man at the top of the list, who is a well-known talent in Jiangzhou. It is said that he entered this year's spring season with the first place in the Jiangzhou Township Examination, and this time he won the first place in the examination again. ”
"That's not necessarily, you must know that since the spring of the past year, there have not been a few champions at the top of the list. ”
"Maybe that's it this year?"
That can only mean that this person not only has real materials, but also has good luck. ”
"Actually, this final temple examination still depends on what questions the saint asks and who the saint is selected in the end. ”
This person said a word, and everyone also felt so, but they should still guess, after all, this is the fun.
Because the topic turned to the current saint, everyone tacitly talked about something else, and then tacitly withdrew it. What I'm afraid of is that after accidentally saying something that shouldn't be said, it will be heard by someone with a heart, and they can't afford it.
Su Li received the news of Mingchen who had gone to Jinling in his palace, and he said that the four elders of Xuanji Pavilion had already begun to investigate. Su Li breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't expect the four elders to agree so simply.
The payment on Mingchen's letter is fifteen, it should have been a few days since he arrived in Jinling, it seems that the elders have been carefully considered, and Su Li is not surprised.
Now because of the Chunfu incident, the prince is busy here, coupled with the fact that the Liu family case is widely implicated, and because the evidence in the Liu family rebellion case that the four major families participated in the case is not sufficient, the case has been temporarily put on hold.
Su Li knew that Su Yu's trip to Jinling had been postponed, and he couldn't tell whether he should be happy or disappointed. However, her attention is not on this for the time being.
Her attention is still on how to bring down the four major families, and she knows that the relationship between the four major families is complex, intertwined and deep-rooted, and it is indeed a difficult problem to bring them down.
The case of Liu Zhiqian, the former head of the household department, is definitely an opportunity to bring down the four major families, but the evidence is not enough at present. Although there is evidence to prove that the Liu family was innocent back then, for the royal family, the purpose is more than that, and someone has come out to testify against the current household Shangshu He Zhixing and the imperial merchant Lu Yizhi.
Naturally, my father and brother would not let go of such a good opportunity, and they wanted to find out the truth about it. Although the truth is never the most important thing for the royal family, sometimes, the truth can also achieve a balance of interests.
Su Li, who has lived for two lifetimes, and under the guidance of the emperor Xiao Heng in this life, Su Li will no longer just talk about things, she has to link these with the situation in the imperial court.
This is the result of her transformation, a princess Su Li who only considers the interests of her family and country, is no longer the innocent princess who just talked about right and wrong in the past.
People's hearts will always become hard after experiencing some things, and it is even possible to lose what was once the most important.
However, Su Li didn't care anymore.
In this life, in order to protect her family and country, in order to protect the people around her, she doesn't care about her gradually hardening heart.
Because, in the previous life, she had already lost herself and could not be found.
......
At the beginning of April, on the day of the temple examination, the current saint was ingenious and did not choose one of the topics drawn up by the cabinet as before. This was unexpected by many people present, especially those who relied on their connections to know in advance what problems the cabinet had raised.
Emperor Su Fan seemed to want to play something else this time, so before the palace people unfolded the test questions, he said: "Slow." ”
Just when everyone was puzzled, he asked the palace people to bring the scroll with the title written on it. With a stroke of his pen, he wrote two words on the back of the scroll and asked the chamberlain to display it in front of everyone.
Then, Su Fan said: "This is the exam question for this year's palace exam, you can answer the paper with this." ”
When everyone saw that there was a word "Zhe" and a word "Li" written on the back of the scroll, they were all stunned.
Many candidates thought to themselves: Isn't this the name of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Princess? Is there any special meaning for the emperor's ingenious examination of this?
In a state of great doubt, everyone began to answer their questions.
Emperor Su Fan looked at the candidates who were swaying their pen and ink below, nodded with satisfaction, and saw what amazing articles would come out this year.
Su Li was idle and bored in the palace, so he asked people to go to the main hall to find out what the exam questions for this year's palace exam were.
As a result, I was surprised when I heard that it was my father himself, and I was surprised when I knew the exam questions.
Isn't this the name of my brother and her, my father is really on a whim, and Su Li is a little speechless.
However, it suddenly reminded her of something.
When my brother was nine years old, that is, when I was seven years old, my father once asked my brother a question: "Zhe'er, do you know why your father and your mother named you Su Zhe?"
At that time, although my brother was still young, he had already learned a lot of things. Coupled with his own intelligence, he only had to read it once to understand the meaning. Even if you encounter some difficult articles, you can understand the content of them as long as you are picked up by the master.
Therefore, this question is not difficult for the nine-year-old brother, he thought for a while and said: "The word philosophy itself has the meaning of wisdom, and the father and mother should want their sons to be a wise and wise saint in the future, insight into affairs, and not easily deceived." ”
When I heard these words at that time, I didn't seem to understand, but I only felt that my brother's explanation should be excellent, because my father smiled happily.
After that, the father asked himself again: "Li'er, what about you? Do you know the meaning of the name that your father and your mother gave you?"
At that time, I tilted my head and thought about it for a long time, thinking that "Li" is not "pear", so I said: "Because my father and mother love to eat pears?"
As soon as these words came out, the crown prince Su Zhe had already laughed, and the emperor Su Fan was too, smiling indifferently.
However, Emperor Su Fan only shook his head helplessly and said, "Li'er, your Li character is different from the pear you eat." This Li of yours is the Li character of the Li people, and it is also the Li character of the dawn. The people of Li are not only what your brother should remember, but also what Li Er should remember. Although Li Er is a woman, she is also a princess of a country, and she also has to take the people of Li to heart, you know?"
"Got it. Su Li nodded as if he didn't understand, but he didn't take the people of Li to heart in that life, and only blindly put Su Yu in his heart.
As a result, it ended up with a "Su Yu gave up, and the people's hearts changed".
Emperor Su Fan said again: "This dawn has another meaning, that is, the meaning of dawn." Li Er was born at the dawn, and the dawn itself carries the meaning of hope and light. Both Father and Mother want Li'er to be happy and carefree for the rest of her life......"
Thinking of these memories, Su Li's eyes were a little sour, and he had forgotten this important memory.
The father and mother are really good-hearted, and it turns out that the word "Li" in her name contains such a deep meaning, and I hope she will have a happy and worry-free life.
Su Li smiled bitterly, in his previous life, he failed to meet his parents' expectations because he liked someone he shouldn't like.
In this life, she has the heavy responsibility of guarding her family and country and protecting her relatives and people around her, and it seems that she can't realize her wish of "a happy and worry-free life......
