Yang Feng brought gifts to congratulate him on his housewarming, although he was his younger brother, but he always had to take care of a meal, which was also a housewarming banquet. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Shen Ze felt that he was a kind person, and he still knew how to give him a peach and repay him, and he still couldn't do anything to take advantage of others.

However, I'm afraid it won't work in my own house, this house has just been taken back, and many things have not yet been formalized, and I am afraid that I will not be able to do it for a while if I want to get a table with a large table.

Since you can't eat at home, you naturally have to go out to eat.

It just so happened that Shen Ze remembered that he still had a lot of things in the Yuelai Inn, so he went to the Yuelai Inn to invite Yang Feng to a banquet, and by the way, asked him to help him pack up and move home.

…………

When Shen Ze and Yang Feng came to the Yuelai Inn, it was still early before lunch, so they happened to take the opportunity to pack up the things in their room.

Shen Ze has lived in the Tianzi A room of this Yuelai Inn for more than a month, and there are really a lot of messy things, and it takes a lot of time to clean them up.

By the time it was ready, it was almost noon.

At that moment, Shen Ze asked the shopkeeper Chen of the inn to prepare a table of noodles and a good "autumn dew" in his room.

After the wine and food were ready, the shopkeeper Chen personally sent it up, and when the wine and food were arranged, he was not in a hurry to leave, and stood at the table and said to Shen Ze respectfully: "Congratulations to Shen Gongzi on his housewarming, and there is no gift to get his hands on, this table will be counted as a place to congratulate Shen Gongzi on his housewarming!" ”

Shen Ze excused himself and said that he must give money, but the shopkeeper Chen insisted on not allowing it. In the end, Shen Ze really couldn't refuse, so he had to accept his heart.

After Shen Ze no longer shirked, Shopkeeper Chen spoke: "Can you ask Shen Gongzi to leave a pair of ink treasures and place them in the store for you to admire from time to time." ”

Shen Ze smiled, there were still people who asked him to keep Mobao, this is fresh. It seems that now his identity as the prefect's master is still quite popular!

Shen Ze has lived in Yuelai Inn for so long, and Shopkeeper Chen has always taken good care of himself, so Shen Ze can't refuse him.

Shen Ze said with a smile: "The book is shoddy, I'm afraid it will be laughed at!" ”

"Shen Gongzi is too modest, Gongzi is the dragon and phoenix among people, and the book must be excellent!"

Shen Ze saw that he couldn't refuse, so he had to agree. Shopkeeper Chen was busy asking people to prepare stationery supplies.

Waiting for the young man at the inn to bring up the stationery supplies, Shen Ze lifted the lake pen, dipped it in ink, pondered for a while, and wrote the four big characters "Harmony and Wealth" on the cut rice paper.

Shen Ze's book is really good, and this is probably the only thing he can get his hands on in the Daming Dynasty.

Shen Ze grew up in his grandparents' house when he was a child. My grandfather was also a literati and liked calligraphy very much. His grandfather's surname is Zhong, and he has always boasted that his ancestors are Zhong Xuan and Zhong Shaojing, so they also highly respect the calligraphy of the big bell and the small bell on the ancestor. His grandfather has been immersed in ~*** law for decades, and a small Kai has won the charm of King Zhong.

Shen Ze learned calligraphy under the supervision of his grandfather since he was a child, and his grandfather admired Zhong Wangti very much, so Zhong Xuan's "Force Table", Zhong Shaojing's "Lingfei Sutra" and other calligraphy, Shen Ze was naturally urged to copy countless times since he was a child.

However, when he got older, Shen Ze had his own opinions, but he liked to copy the font of Dong Qichang, a calligrapher in the middle and late Ming Dynasty.

It is said that "words are like people", but this matter is really inaccurate when placed here by Dong Qichang. Although Dong Qichang's character is very bad, his calligraphy is definitely able to open a sect. His calligraphy is a synthesis of the styles of the Jin, Tang, Song, and Yuan dynasties, and is self-contained.

Dong Qichang's style of writing is elegant and ethereal, and he is self-sufficient. The stroke garden is beautiful and elegant, plain and simple. With the pen fine, always maintain the front, rarely pen, clumsy pen; In terms of chapter law, between words and words, between lines and lines, the layout of branches, sparse and symmetrical, and the ancient law is pursued. The use of ink is also very particular, dry and damp, and it is wonderful. Calligraphy to Dong Qichang can be said to be the culmination of ancient methods.

Shen Ze's later generations have copied Dong Qichang's calligraphy for many years, but it can be regarded as one or two points of charm, at this time, the four big characters in italics of "harmony and wealth" are completed in one go, but there is also a graceful and handsome writing.

At this time, people naturally have not seen Dong Qichang's self-proclaimed family of books, Chen shopkeeper and Yang Feng saw Shen Ze's elegant and ethereal book, they couldn't help but praise loudly, Chen shopkeeper was like a treasure to dry the ink, and he was very happy to go downstairs with the word panel.

Yang Feng couldn't help but deepen his admiration for his eldest brother a little more, his eldest brother is so powerful, why can he do everything so well? The eldest brother's book is simply everyone's style!

…………

After the shopkeeper Chen left, Yang Feng took the jar of "Autumn Dew White" and filled the wine glasses of the two.

Shen Ze and Yang Feng drank each other.

Yang Feng doesn't have much ability, but he is still very well-informed about all kinds of news.

The two chatted while drinking, and soon talked about the scientific expedition, so Yang Feng finally had the opportunity to show off his well-informed information in front of his eldest brother.

"Hey, big brother, do you know? It is said that the chief examiner of this autumn has been decided! ”

"Ah, isn't the chief examiner of this autumn township exam usually announced in June or July? It's only been April, how do you know about Shouyue? "The Ming Autumn Festival is generally held in August, and in order to prevent requests for help and buying questions, the examiner will generally be announced one or two months before the exam.

"The chief examiners of the provinces selected by the imperial court are generally announced in June and July, but in fact, they are basically decided in April and May at the latest. If there are no special circumstances, it will generally not be changed. Big brother, you think, the examiners of the provincial and township examinations are basically sent from the capital, and our Shandong is close to the capital, and it will be there in five or six days. But what about Yunnan, Guangxi, Guizhou and other places? It's a long way and the road is difficult, but you have to walk for months. If you wait until June or July to set the main exam, then it's too late! ”

Shen Ze thought about it and felt that it was indeed the case. However, no matter who the main examiner of this autumn exam is, he is unlikely to pass the exam, so he doesn't care much about it.

However, in order to praise Yang Feng and let him continue to show off, Shen Ze still asked casually: "Who is the chief examiner in Shandong this year?" "The chief examiner of the township examination in the provinces of Daming is generally served by officials from the Hanlin Academy or the Ministry of Rites, and Shen Ze asked this question.

If it was a weekday, Shen Ze might have to preach Yang Feng again. But today, after all, people gave him a gift, and this banquet is also to thank him, so he has to give people a face, right? So Shen Ze cooperated very well and let Yang Feng continue to show off!

Yang Feng listened to Shen Ze's question, and couldn't help but show his interest, and continued to show off at the moment: "Big brother guessed wrong this time. It is said that the person who came to preside over our Shandong Qiufu Township test this time was neither a Hanlin nor an official of the Ministry of Rites, but a young director of the Criminal Department, and he was also idle at home due to illness, just a little-known petty official. ”

Shen Ze was also slightly surprised when he heard this, how could a young junior official be sent to preside over such a ceremony of talent selection in Qiuqiu Township, and his curiosity was aroused, and he couldn't help but say Yang Feng said: "What is the name of this head of the criminal department?" ”

Yang Feng opened his mouth and said, "It is said that this examiner's name is Wang Shouren. ”

When Shen Ze heard Wang Shouren, he couldn't help but feel a shock in his head and remembered something. He hurriedly asked, "Is this Wang Shouren the guy who is the one who checks the bamboo?" Is his dad a champion? ”

Yang Feng listened to Shen Ze's words, and couldn't help pouting: "I'm afraid this guy is a little famous for these two things, I also asked a lot of people to find out about this, it turns out that you know the eldest brother, sure enough, the eldest brother is the eldest brother!" I don't know how such a little-known guy can get such an important errand to preside over the township test. ”

In Daming, presiding over the township test is indeed an important errand, and it can be regarded as an advantage or disadvantage. The chief examiner of the township examination of a subject will naturally become their teacher. And these lifters, if they can be admitted to the Jinshi in the future, will naturally become the help of the teacher. Of course, the teachers will also help their own students. In the Ming officialdom, the relationship between teachers and students is a very important bond.

This is also an important means to harvest future help resources, so it is difficult for people who do not have certain qualifications and abilities to get the errand of presiding over the township test.

Yes, Yang Fengcai felt strange that Wang Shouren, the head of the criminal department who was idle at home, could preside over this Shandong township test! After all, I'm afraid that many senior officials in the capital are fighting for this errand, right?!

ps: Alas, I will continue to run naked next week, and I can only continue to change it. Hehe, anyway, Xiao Yuan has always been in the stand-alone machine, and it is estimated that there are not many people who can see it, and it is estimated that one or two more will not make a difference.

Of course, if someone urges a change, Xiao Yuan is still happy to add a change. There is a top urging building in the book review area, and if you want to urge the change, you can sign in, every tenth floor, Xiao Yuan adds a chapter, and it is absolutely possible. Okay, so happy to decide!
