The Spring Festival holiday of the Ming Dynasty was only five days at the earliest, and Zhu Yuanzhang, who was born as a farmer, thought that the officials should also work as hard as he did, so the annual holiday was reduced by ten times from more than 100 days in the Song Dynasty, only more than ten days, which was really more than ten days, and there were no weekends, so the officials of the Ming Dynasty were very tired, and the times have developed to this day, Emperor Jiajing does not attach much importance to these, and the emperors of previous dynasties will not have the spirit of an old cow like Zhu Yuanzhang, and they are also trying to find themselves easy, so, The holidays of the Ming Dynasty began to change. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

To the Jiajing Dynasty, under the premise that the emperor took the lead in being lazy, the emperor naturally would not be too harsh on the courtiers, so the Spring Festival holiday became the longest holiday of the year, connecting the Chinese New Year's Eve, the Lantern Festival and the New Year's Day Festival, from the first day of the new year to the twentieth and twentieth days of the new year, the long holiday can be described as allowing the civil and military officials to enjoy enough, naturally, the officials do not work, the people do not work, except for the unlucky children in the service industry such as restaurants, the Ming Dynasty basically does not work.

Zheng Guang and they also spent a comfortable long holiday, and the bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods who have worked hard for a year must take a rest at this time, so as to accumulate strength and continue to toss and accumulate strength for the upcoming new year in the future, so these 20 days are rare 20 days of peace, not only there is no news in the north, but there is no news in the south, and the whole country has been calm for 20 days.

In the twentieth day, somehow, Zheng Guang's residence was known by some fellow villagers from Nanzhili, Zhang Juzheng and Li Yiyuan swore that they did not disclose it, but these Nanzhili students themselves said that they were looking for Zheng Guang's family to inquire, these students are the children of the family who had business dealings with Zheng Guang in the Yiwu incident, so they were entrusted by the elders of the family to come to visit Zheng Guang, and there was no other meaning.

Everyone is a heart learner, it is good to get close to each other, such as Wang Shizhen, than He Xinyin and others, there are some people who come with them, Li Chunfang, Ling Yunyi, Yang Yusun, Zhu Ji and Xu Zhi, who has had some contacts, Wang Shizhen These people are not strange to Zheng Guang, but the champion of this department, the future cabinet chief assistant Li Chunfang also came, Zheng Guang still felt a little concerned.

Although Li Chunfang is a good gentleman, he is well versed in the golden mean, and never shows his edge, but his academic ability is indeed at the level of a scholar, and his future standing and vision are also a temporary choice, so that he can protect himself in the strict political whirlpool in the last years of Jiajing, and be stable in the strange political atmosphere in the Longqing period, and retreat bravely on the eve of the great reform in the early years of Wanli, becoming a famous transitional prime minister.

In that era, it is not strange to make political achievements, and it is the most noteworthy thing to achieve the status of the first assistant and protect his own safety, after he voluntarily resigned, his parents are still alive, and the Li family drinks and entertains every day, sharing the joy of family, and others are envious of it, until Li Chunfang died long after the death of his parents, so Li Chunfang, who is now Chinese New Year's Eve seven years old, is definitely an old driver! Such talents need to have a lot of contacts.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that after the last incident, Xu Zhi took the initiative to contact Xu Wei this time, conveyed to Xu Wei the intention of cooperating with Zheng Guang in Yiwu, and built a stinky tofu workshop as a sole proprietorship, and also took the initiative to establish a ham processing workshop with Zheng Guang.

To be honest, so far, Zheng Guang has never had any good impression of Xu Zhi, and even Xu Jie, his big brother who will bring down Yan Song in the future, has no good impression, they are all people who give up some things for something, but what Xu Jie and Xu Zhi give up is obviously not what Zheng Guang wants to see.

As soon as Zheng Guang asked, he knew that basically the people of the Nanzhili Guild Hall knew that Zheng Guang was coming, out of respect and gratitude, especially to thank Zheng Guang for pacifying the Su Song in the previous battle of Su Song, so that Su Song has not had a single Japanese Kou to this day, and everyone has had a rare year of peace, so as soon as everyone discussed, they sent a few representatives to meet Zheng Guang, and the leader was Wang Shizhen of the Wang family in Taicang, Suzhou.

Wang Shizhen is known for his talents, in the early years of the township examination also achieved a good result of the second place, the last time the test failed, this time the test will be successful, the Wang family and Zheng Guang have business dealings, but also have a great interest in Zheng Guang, with gifts to visit Zheng Guang of all the people, his gifts are the most valuable.

"I don't know if you are here, you have no preparations, it is really rude." Zheng Guang instructed his subordinates to prepare some wine and food, but I didn't know that so many people came, there was no preparation, everyone also understood Zheng Guang, and said that it was okay, everyone was entrusted by the whole Nanzhili to visit Zheng Guang, and by the way, he thanked Zheng Guang for eradicating the 7,000 Su Song and Japanese Invaders, so that everyone enjoyed the long-lost peace, which is the reason why the entire people of Nanzhili plus the people of Zhejiang and Fujian are grateful to Zheng Guang.

Everyone was also worried about delaying Zheng Guang's exam, so they only sent a few representatives over, because of this exploit, the students of Nanzhili were unwilling to have unpleasant things with Zheng Guang, and everyone was more or less favored by Zheng Guang, so Zheng Guang was the only one who was not feared by everyone, but everyone hoped that Zheng Guang could be admitted to the Jinshi and get a higher status, and then calm down the troubles for everyone and relieve everyone's worries.

"No, no, no, it's us who is rude, it's us who didn't notify Pingzhi in advance, and we came to visit rashly, so Pingzhi is in trouble, and I hope Pingzhi doesn't care." Wang Shizhen bowed deeply, and Li Chunfang, Ling Yunyi and others behind him also saluted.

Zheng Guang hurriedly stepped forward to help Wang Shizhen, helped these people up one by one, and said with a wry smile: "How can you be so loved by you, you must not be like this, and torture Zheng Guang!" ”

Wang Shizhen raised his head and said very seriously: "No, Pingzhi can bear it, just in the next ceremony, Pingzhi can bear it, Taicang Prefecture has been besieged by the Japanese Invaders for a long time, and the city is tired, if it is not for Pingzhi to bring troops to rescue, once the Taicang Prefecture City is broken by the Japanese Invaders, the Wang family will suffer, not to mention, hundreds of thousands of people in Taicang Prefecture City will also be slaughtered, it will be a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, Pingzhi led troops to rescue, which is tantamount to the grace of reconstruction, at that time it was also in Taicang City, but he didn't see Pingzhi's face, Pingzhi went to pursue the Japanese Kou, just a little, in the next is kneeling, and it is difficult to repay the grace of peace. ”

Seeing that Wang Shizhen's eyes were about to turn red, seeing that he was really about to kneel, Zheng Guang hurriedly supported Wang Shizhen and said: "Brother Wang can't, Brother Wang can't, as a garrison at that time, he naturally has the duty of guarding the land and fighting thieves, that is what should be done in the next, Brother Wang doesn't need to thank him specifically, he really doesn't need to, and the suppression of the Japanese is a lifelong ideal, my father died at the hands of the Japanese Kou, since the age of nine, I swore that I must be a peaceful southeast Japanese Kou, no matter what, I will definitely return to the southeast and calm the Japanese Kou!" If you don't get rid of the Japanese invaders, you will never be an official in the capital! ”

As soon as they heard this, Nan Zhili's movers, regardless of age, all had respect for the youngest Zheng Guang, this year's oath is not a simple sentence, but a kind of belief, a belief that everyone will believe and expect, if you can't do it, your credit will go bankrupt, in the Ming Dynasty, this kind of belief in credit has reached a paranoid level of the environment, if you are bankrupt, it will really stink for 10,000 years, so everyone has no doubt Zheng Guang's oath.

"This, Pingzhi, with Pingzhi's literary talent, if he can be elected as a Shujishi, when he is in the Hanlin Academy to watch the government, how can he leave Beijing and go to the southeast Pingzhi?" Ling Yunyi was shocked, and hurriedly asked, Li Chunfang, Wang Shizhen and the others were also shocked, but Xu Zhi looked at Zheng Guang with a surprised face, as if he was thinking about something, but Zheng Guang didn't care, and said: "This is an oath made a long time ago, if you are lucky to get good results in Xia, and you are lucky enough to be selected as a Shujishi, you will definitely ask Your Majesty to go south to level the Japanese, and the Japanese will never go north to the capital!" ”

To tell the truth, Zheng Guang said this, everyone is still a little happy, the reason why Zheng Guang can defeat the Japanese Bandits, relying on his one-handed training skills, everyone in the southeast knows that Zheng Guang recruited troops from Yiwu, practiced for a month and went to the battlefield to fight against the Japanese Invaders, and the first battle cleaned up the southeast giant Kou Chen Dong, this training ability is not easy to practice, if Zheng Guang is in the southeast, they don't have to worry about their hometown being attacked by the Japanese Invaders, and their families are threatened by the Wolves.

However, Zheng Guang made a bet on his future, which made them ashamed, what they couldn't do, but they had to be a seventeen-year-old, and it would take a few months to be eighteen-year-old to do it, and they had to bet on their own future, after all, there had never been a precedent of being selected as a Shuji Shi and not staying in the Hanlin Academy for a few years, this is really a bet on their own future, for the sake of the southeast peace, Zheng Guang didn't care about his future at all, this bearing, how could they not be convinced?

That night, everyone drank and had a good time, chatted and chatted very happily, after the banquet, Wang Shizhen invited Zheng Guang to participate in the literary meeting held by the Nanzhili Hall three days later, it is said that this is the custom, before each examination, the lifters of each province will invite the Qinggui Hanlin who have obtained excellent results in the Hanlin Academy to make a judgment for them.

The lifters who are about to go to the examination room will write articles to ask these Hanlin to judge, and the Hanlin will judge whether the level of this article and the juzi is enough to be admitted to the Jinshi based on their own experience and accumulation over the years, whether it is a third-class or a second-class or a three-ding-first, which is very eye-catching, and there is a regional dispute, and the local Hanlin will definitely favor the lifters in his hometown, and the pre-exam judgment is likely to affect the psychology of the candidates, so this is also an uncertain factor.
