Chapter 66: Meet
"Childe, I will meet the prefect in three days, I think I will prepare thirty taels of silver, which is indispensable. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
When drinking and eating, the housekeeper's mouth almost never stopped, probably because he was in a good mood, he even said that he was going to find He Siyao and He Sijun, thanks to their good words, Wu Fanhui became the head of the government trial, so that all the doubts of the housekeeper were eliminated, and the head of the house trial was not so simple to obtain.
The housekeeper also talked about the hospital examination, the hospital examination held in Xi'an Mansion in early September, Wu Fanhui will definitely participate, and Xi'an Mansion City is much larger than Yan'an Mansion City, and it will definitely not work to continue to go to Xi'an Mansion City alone.
Wu Fanhui rarely spoke, he almost enjoyed happiness alone, although it seemed so insignificant, for a young man with big ambitions, the county test and the government test were just the beginning.
Three days later, Wu Fanhui carried thirty taels of silver and went towards the prefect, he was the head of the prefect examination, naturally he was the first to meet the prefect, and the rest of the candidates who passed the prefect examination would go to meet according to their own rankings after he met the prefect.
After the candidates who have passed the prefectural examination meet the prefect, all the things in the prefectural examination are over, and when many candidates are waited, it is the academy examination that can achieve real fame.
At the end of the day, Wu Fanhui came to the mansion, and he didn't wait long before someone took him in.
The happy money of the person who leads the way is indispensable, and Wu Fanhui prepared 500 yuan.
Five hundred wen yuan is already a lot, after all, there are fifty people who want to visit the prefect, and the average two hundred wen yuan per person is more than eight taels of silver, which is more than the salary that the official can get from the government in the whole year.
With a humble smile on his face, the official whispered congratulatory words in his mouth, and took Wu Fanhui to the wing room behind the lobby, where the prefect met many students.
"Student Wu Fanhui, the word Qianjue, meet the teacher."
Wu Fanhui still did not kneel, bowed, and bent down very much.
Even if he has the identity of the head of the county trial and the head of the government test, Wu Fanhui should kneel when he sees the prefect, but unfortunately this is his bottom line and principle, and he will not kneel if he does not encounter danger or can avoid it.
Ma Maocai's face, with a smile, did not show dissatisfaction with Wu Fanhui's refusal to kneel.
When the head of the government examination case was determined, Ma Mao read Wu Fanhui's article again, and the more he read it, the more he felt that it made sense, and the more he looked at it, the more it was in line with his inner thoughts, and he almost did not hesitate to determine that Wu Fanhui was the head of the government examination case.
Lu Weibiao's letter, the article of the county test, and the article of the government test made Ma Maocai look at the fourteen-year-old Wu Fanhui with admiration, and in the face of the careful layout of the He family crest, he calmly cracked it and was at ease, which made Ma Maocai have a unique feeling about Wu Fanhui, and it can be said that many people who have been officials in the government for many years cannot do this.
The old man in Wu Fanhui's mouth is even more mysterious in Ma Maocai's heart, because what people reveal is the temperament of a scholar, spending money like dirt, and his identity is definitely not ordinary, maybe he always pays attention to Wu Fanhui's every step.
Of course, if Wu Fanhui doesn't kneel, Ma Mao can't be particularly happy, but after all, he is the prefect of the fourth grade, how can he lose his temper in front of a young man.
Wu Fanhui quickly offered the silver.
Three ingots of silver, that is, thirty taels of silver.
Ma Mao just stretched out his hand, brushed the bag aside, and knew how much silver it was.
The generosity of the young man in front of him was beyond his expectations, these thirty taels of silver were enough to maintain the expenses of a medium-sized family in Yan'an Prefecture, and it was even more able to maintain the expenses of ordinary families for five to six years.
Ma Maocai's face still won't show it, but he marveled at Wu Fanhui's generosity, such a person must be like a fish in water when he enters the officialdom, he is an official for thousands of miles just for money, and when he meets a generous person, who doesn't like to make friends.
"Qian Jue, I can see why you became the head of the government test."
"Returning to the teacher, Qian Jue can become the head of the government test, all of which is the result of the teacher's cultivation."
Ma Mao couldn't help but laugh again, a fourteen-year-old boy, the sycophants are not leaky, it is indeed not simple.
"No, this is because your knowledge is not ordinary, at the age of more than ten years, you can have extraordinary knowledge and become the head of the county and government examinations, the old man is very envious."
"Qian Jue thanked his teacher for his praise, he didn't dare to be complacent, and he had to study hard after he went back and prepare to take the college exam."
"Very good, the importance of the hospital exam, the old man will not say much, you are not as old as the weak crown, just so steady, the old man believes that you will be able to deal with the hospital exam more calmly, the old man has to wait for your good news."
Wu Fanhui muttered a little in his heart, why Ma Maocai spoke similar to Lu Weibiao, waiting for good news or something, of course this is a blessing word, but the meaning behind it is not simple.
Ma Mao is the prefect of Yan'an Prefecture, an official of the fourth grade, it is impossible to favor a showman, or a child, I am afraid that ordinary people will not look down on him, but people have rich experience and have a vision to see people, and saying these words is also to lay the foundation for the future.
Talking is just touching the skin of the mouth, and if you don't give anything, it's hard to say what you will get.
"Qian Jue will definitely work hard, if he gets a good result in the college examination, he will make a special trip to repay his teacher."
"Very good, the old man is optimistic about you, the hospital examination in September this year, including the township examination in September next year, you are a talent in my Yan'an Mansion, and you must also serve the emperor and contribute to the court."
Ma Maocai's words were a bit big, and Wu Fanhui almost didn't know how to answer.
"Qian Jue is only the first to look forward to the teacher."
Ma Mao smiled, this time he really laughed, he was a two-rank jinshi, of course he knew the meaning of this sentence.
Scholars who have passed the county examination, the teacher is the governor or the county, the child who has passed the government examination, the teacher is the prefect, the Xiucai who has passed the college examination, and the teacher is the learner, but these so-called teachers basically have no gold content, only through the township examination, they have become a lifter, and the teacher at that time is the real teacher.
Only by raising people can they enter the court as officials, and only then can they really help others, and only when they say something that is not good, can they be used, can be used by others, and can also use others.
Of course, if you pass the exam, it will be even more difficult, at least they are all top three jinshi, and the expatriate is also the magistrate of the seventh grade.
"Qian Jue, you are so smart, the old man won't say much, the old man still wants to congratulate you."
Speaking to smart people, Ma Maocai will not be verbose, a lot of words are up to the end, as for the He family's calculation of the Wu family, involving Wu Fanhui, he will not mention it in front of Wu Fanhui, but will write a letter to Lu Weibiao to inform him.
When Ma Mao picked up the teacup, Wu Fanhui hurriedly got up and said goodbye.
Walking out of the mansion, the housekeeper and the two young men were waiting outside the mansion.
The butler had a smile on his face, although it didn't take long for Wu Fanhui to come out after entering the mansion.
Back at the inn, the shopkeeper greeted him with a smile, he already knew that the young man in front of him was the head of the government examination, and he was a promising person, living in his inn, which was a golden signboard, and the candidates who participated in the government examination in the future were going to come to stay, and this teenager was staying in a first-class room.
The shopkeeper knew that Wu Fanhui was going to leave the inn and go home, so he had already arranged a sumptuous banquet, which was an inn for guests, in fact, for three consecutive days, the inn was set up for a banquet.
Looking at the smiling face of the shopkeeper, Wu Fanhui understood the meaning, and he walked straight to the counter.
"Shopkeeper, bothering you for so long, why do you have to leave some things, I'll just write a few words, don't dislike the shopkeeper."
"Where, where, Childe is willing to leave Mobao, and the inn is full of brilliance."
Wu Fanhui smiled, he couldn't imagine that the shopkeeper of the inn could also say words like Peng Shenghui, and it seemed that he also had some knowledge.
"The best restaurant in Mizhi County is Sihailou, so I thought of a sentence and gave it to the inn."
After thinking about it for a while, Wu Fanhui quickly put pen to paper.
The sea is wide and the fish jumps, and the sky is high for the birds to fly.
Seeing these words, the shopkeeper's eyes couldn't close with a smile.
During the meal, the daughter Hong was moved out again, and it was the daughter Red who had been treasured by the inn for several years.
Wu Fanhui is not polite, after the crossing, he drank more restrained, but also thought that this body could not withstand it, but more than a year has passed, the situation has long changed, he is not hungry, not only can he eat enough, but also pay attention to the combination of nutrition, his body is already very good, but in a year or so, his height has reached about one meter six five, and he has grown ten centimeters, which is considered tall at the end of the Ming Dynasty, he knows that he will be long, and he is afraid that he will be able to jump to more than one meter seven in the end.
The housekeeper was in a good mood and drank refreshingly, and as for the two young men, they also drank three glasses of wine.
The shopkeeper also came to toast, and before that, he had already framed the words written by Wu Fanhui, and he wanted to hang this word in the guest room, which was the first word written by the government trial case.
Wu Fanhui finally drank with the housekeeper, but the housekeeper couldn't drink it and lay on the table.
When the housekeeper woke up the next day, he was very unconvinced, he couldn't drink a teenager.
The return trip was quickly arranged, all of which were arranged by the housekeeper, in fact, Wu Fanhui brought a lot of silver to Fucheng, and there was still a lot left, and in more than a month, he used less than five taels of silver, as for the twenty taels of silver given by his father Wu Qingchao, he didn't move at all.
On June 22, Wu Fanhui and his entourage set off from Yan'an Fucheng and returned to Mizhi County, at this time, the people of the He family were still waiting in Fucheng, and they had to wait until He Siyao and He Sijun met the prefect before they could leave Fucheng.
As for the other candidates in Mizhi County, they left as early as after the results were released.
