Chapter 494: Make Way for You!
Zhang Siwei was a little frightened that Zhang Juzheng actually greeted him at the door of the study, but then he didn't pay any more attention to Wang Fulin's body.
Zhang Juzheng was accustomed to Zhang Siwei's respectful and warm, and as for the unique greeting behavior, he didn't even explain anything. When a group of people came to the study to sit down, he saw that Wang Fulin was actually standing behind Wang Daokun, looking like an honest young man, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then said to Zhang Siwei: "Today, I stole half a day of leisure, just to gossip with the three brothers of the Boyu family, and they brought their sons and nephews to see me." Ziwei, look at the age of this young man of the Wang family, you might as well guess what his fame is now? ”
Even if Wang Daokun is the same year as Zhang Juzheng, he was in a foreign post in the past, Zhang Ju was a Beijing official, and the exchanges were letters at most, but after he returned to Beijing and was promoted to the head of the military department, he had never seen such an approachable Zhang Juzheng. At this moment, he couldn't help but glance back at Wang Fulin, could it be that Wang Fulin's strange theory of controlling the enemy with flour just now made Zhang Juzheng temporarily throw away the first auxiliary shelf, so that he rarely made this kind of joke?
And Zhang Siwei was even more shocked by Zhang Juzheng's tone. You must know that unlike Wang Daokun, who has been away all the year round, he has always been a Beijing official since he entered the Hanlin Academy after the pavilion election, and he has taken the same path as Zhang Juzheng, the only difference is that he is six years later than Zhang Juzheng, and he does not have a teacher like Xu Jie, so the pace is more than a step slower than Zhang Juzheng.
In his impression, the last time he saw Zhang Juzheng so approachable, it was back when he had not yet entered the cabinet! The reason why he agreed to Xu Guo's invitation today and went to the Xu family was precisely because he guessed that Wang Fulin, who had a good relationship with the son-in-law of the Xu family, might go. I thought that Zhang Juzheng should always stagger the two groups of people, but who knew that he happened to meet a bunch of people from the Wang family, who were here, and it seemed that he had a good conversation with Zhang Juzheng!
Therefore, even if he had a thousand tastes in his heart, he still cheered up his full energy at this moment, and said with a smile: "It looks like he should be sixteen or seventeen years old." If it is an ordinary teenager who can be a showman, it is already a family history, and the future is waiting, but since it is a junior in Brother Boyu's family, and he brought him to see the first assistant, he will definitely be outstanding. You're so young. I think I was already twenty-three years old. ”
Wang Daokun knew that Zhang Siwei could recover, and it was precisely because Zhang Juzheng agreed, and the other party praised him so much at this time, he hurriedly shook his head: "Bachelor Zhang entered school at the fifteenth year and was ranked excellent, although he was twenty-three years old, he was the second place in the township examination. How dare Flynn compare it? He's just a fluke and will try his luck next year. ”
See Zhang Siwei compliments. Wang Daokun was humble, and Wang Fulin stood behind, secretly thinking that this was really boring. However, he had a feeling that Zhang Siwei didn't seem to guess, but more like he knew it a long time ago! Although he had several dealings with Zhang Taizheng before and after. Zhang Taizheng didn't have the upper hand once, but he didn't think that Zhang Dagongzi would be full and had nothing to do, and told his father about the past when he suffered in his hands, in this case, how could Zhang Siwei know him? Come to think of it. A vague thought was born in his heart, and suddenly he only heard someone ask.
"Wang Fulin, you said it yourself, are you sure that this branch will try?"
Seeing that it was Zhang Juzheng who was questioned, Wang Fulin suddenly sighed in his heart, and then let it go: "Back to Yuanfu, I'm not sure." ”
Such an answer without any hesitation surprised everyone present, Wang Daoguan and Wang Fulin had more dealings, and they were a little mentally prepared, Wang Daohui almost didn't bare out of his eyes. Zhang Siwei rushed ahead of the others, and asked with a smile: "Other people who come to participate in the examination are all full of ambition, and they expect to be successful, but you say that you are not sure?" ”
"Even if the township examination is a provincial solution, you may not be able to pass the examination once, let alone a student?" Wang Fulin also called himself me in front of Zhang Juzheng just now, but at this time he was surprisingly humble, "Moreover, all the people who can participate in the examination are the elites of all prefectures and counties in the world, many people have studied for ten or twenty years more than students, and their qualifications are no worse than those of students. How many people are really sure about this kind of thing when they participate in the examination? Since there is not, instead of deceiving yourself, it is better to correct your mentality, so that if you unfortunately fall off the list, you will not feel sorry for yourself. ”
Speaking of this, Wang Fulin added seriously: "Does Bachelor Zhang think so?" ”
Seeing that Wang Fulin looked at himself very sincerely, although Zhang Siwei wanted to be sarcastic, you are really such an honest person who can come up with that kind of trick, but he knows that there should be absolutely no more things at the moment, so he smiled happily: "It's rare to have such a mentality at a young age." ”
Zhang Juzheng just smiled, then looked at Zhang Siwei, and asked meaningfully: "I will try next year, is Ziwei willing to share the burden?" ”
As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the study. You must know that the examination has always been to select a university scholar from the cabinet as the main examiner, and then select a bachelor or bachelor from the Hanlin Academy as the deputy chief examiner. After all, Zhang Siwei used to be the same examiner in the exam, so he can be regarded as experienced.
However, Wang Fulin's first thought at the moment was that Zhang Juzheng suddenly threw out such a question, do you want Zhang Siwei to be the deputy chief examiner, or don't you want Zhang Siwei to be the deputy chief examiner? Standing behind Wang Daokun, he could just see Zhang Siwei's expression on the other side, but he saw that it was first shocked, then confused, and then self-deprecating. Soon, Zhang Siwei stood up.
"The examination is a major event of the country, and it is not appropriate for the first assistant to joke so much at this time in front of people who will take the examination next year." After admonishing him seriously, Zhang Siwei said frankly, "I resigned due to illness and returned to my hometown, and now because of the emperor's love and the importance of the first auxiliary, I was able to return to the dynasty to retake charge of the Hanlin Academy. Next year's examination is the first examination after the emperor's accession to the throne, and the emperor and the first assistant should pay special attention to selecting the most suitable talents among the important ministers. ”
There was a righteous refusal in these words, as well as bitter persuasion and reminders, even if Wang Fulin knew that Zhang Siwei was the most tolerant and exquisite guy in the early years of Wanli, he had to give a thumbs up and give people a thumbs up. Because Zhang Juzheng suddenly laughed out loud. The expression was obviously extremely relaxed and cheerful, and he was obviously not unhappy with Zhang Siwei's clear statement.
"Okay, okay, I've listened to what you said." Zhang Juzheng nodded, and then looked at Wang Fulin behind Wang Daokun, "Since you said go all out, then go all out to take the test." That's right. Zhong Yan and Zhong Jia, the two of you, the three uncles and nephews take the same exam, which is also a good story. ”
"Story? Yuanfu should say that we have to really end up together, that is the big trouble, it is better to avoid suspicion as soon as possible. Wang Daoguan gave Wang Daohui a look and shrugged his shoulders slightly, "Zhong Jia and I have both failed to make the list a few times, so I won't go to the end with Fu Lin this year to attract people's attention." The province said that as soon as the eldest brother returned to the court, our Wang family rushed to take the exam. In this way, the examiner can also save snacks. ”
Wang Fulin knew for the first time that Wang Daoguan and Wang Daohui were going to give up next year's examination! Doesn't this mean that Wang Daokun, who was very quiet in his previous examination, actually had great expectations for him in this subject? Taken aback, he was about to say something, but Wang Daohui took the lead.
"After the eldest brother recovered, Zhong Yan and I have been in office with the eldest brother. Songming Mountain, Wang's big and small things, often have to go forward and backward. It's rare for us to be uncles to make way for our nephews, and that's how it should be. Although he said that he was not sure. We don't think he's going to be a blockbuster, but how do you know if you don't give it a try? ”
Although the two middle schools of the Wang family are just lifting people, Zhang Juzheng heard that the two are quite famous, so the brothers are willing to make way for their nephews, and he can't help but feel a little touched when he thinks of his sons. Thereupon. He nodded happily, and actually encouraged Wang Fulin for the first time. Until the four members of the Wang family got up to say goodbye and left, he saw that Zhang Siwei was a little absent-minded, so he said with a smile: "I didn't expect it, the Wang brothers are willing to make way for a nephew of the same clan." It can be seen that they expect it. I also want to see if this bold young man really has the ability to win a jinshi. ”
Zhang Siwei finally squeezed out a smile: "If you really win, it is an eighteen-year-old jinshi, which has always been rare, and you must know that Yang Wenzhong Gongzhong was also nineteen years old in the past." ”
How can that kid be compared to the young prodigy Yang Tinghe?
Zhang Juzheng suddenly interjected: "Li Du's poems have been passed down by thousands of mouths, and they are no longer fresh. Generations of talented people have come out, each with hundreds of years. Have you heard this poem? ”
Seeing that Zhang Siwei was stunned for a while, Zhang Juzheng smiled and said: "I only learned from Wang Nanming today that the poem that Xie Tingjie, the former superintendent of Nanzhili, had excerpted from this poem, which was written by Wang Fulin just now. I have always hated those pretentious students who comment on state affairs, but this Wang Fulin is still solid, and for his age, it is very rare. If there are a few more pragmatic people in the world, and a few fewer people who use lectures to discuss state affairs, then the world will be peaceful! ”
And out of Zhang's mansion, Wang Fulin was directly dragged onto the mule cart by the three brothers of the Wang family. Before anyone could ask him anything first, he hurriedly said, "Uncle, and two uncles, what do you mean by this?" I'm really not sure that I'll take the exam next year, why do you want to let this subject take the exam for me? ”
"I said it on the spot, and I was thinking about how to persuade Zhong Jia, but I didn't expect Zhong Jia to agree." Wang Daoguan saw that Wang Fulin was stunned at first, and then his face turned dark, and he laughed, "Although I have only met our Shoufu Lord no more than three times in total, it is the first time I have seen him take the time to talk to a junior like you for so long." In that case, wouldn't it be a pity to miss the opportunity? The most important thing is that Zhang Jingxiu, the eldest son of the Zhang family, will also participate in the examination next year. If you can be with him, the two of you will have another layer of relationship with the same year. ”
"That's right, missing the opportunity will be thundered." Wang Daohui, who has always been serious, made a rare joke, and when he saw Wang Daokun but was silent, he patiently explained, "The main examiner of next year's examination will definitely be Lu Tiaoyang Lu Gelao, and since the deputy chief examiner is not Zhang Siwei, the selection method is limited." It is impossible to say who is out of the test questions, and it is impossible to bet on the questions, but the test is more operable than the township test to a certain extent, because the proportion is high, and the vague name of the test will be dismantled when the ranking is made after the marking. But eighteen-year-old Jinshi are rare after all, and the article must not be flawed, otherwise it will be a scandal. ”
Wang Daokun saw that Wang Fulin was extremely helpless by the brothers, and he said conclusively: "You don't have to have too much pressure, Zhong Yan and Zhong Jia are both the same generation as me, and it is impossible to be an official in the same dynasty, but you are different, young age is a disadvantage, but after all, you and I are only relatives within five suits, as long as you pass the exam, even if it is just a fellow jinshi, it doesn't matter!" ”
PS: Two more 7,000 words for a monthly pass, thank you! It's not easy to stabilize the ranking every month, and I don't know how many books I see sink forever when they run around in the new book month (to be continued......
