When there were still three months before the examination, in Beijing City in early December, in a gorgeous house, Zhao Wenhua and Yan Shifan had a conversation. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Donglou Gong, do we really want to do this? If this is known to others, it will be a big sin for the Nine Clans! Not only in the next, but also Yan Gong's life, it is difficult to protect! Zhao Wenhua's face was full of worry, obviously retreating, not wanting to affect his future on this matter, but of course Yan Shifan would not let go of this nominal righteous brother, in fact, a dog, let him be alone.

"Nonsense! Of course I know the results of what was discovered, but if you don't say it, I won't say it, those guys don't say it, who else can know? They are all friends that my dad has spent decades of hard work to make, that is, you, and have been with my dad for more than ten years, the so-called raising soldiers for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, if there is no my dad, can you have today? Do you want to back down now? Do you think it's possible? Yes? Yan Shifan threatened Zhao Wenhua with a fierce voice.

Zhao Wenhua's face was full of misery, and he collapsed to the ground all of a sudden, crying: "Donglou Gong, there are eighty old mothers in the villain's family, as well as weak and young wives and children, once the villain is discovered, it doesn't matter if the villain dies, but the family will also be affected by the villain, and the villain really can't do it!" ”

Yan Shifan looked at Zhao Wenhua who collapsed to the ground with disgust on his face, and said in his heart that Daddy is really an old fool who uses unknown people, how can such a waste be accepted as a righteous son, no wonder he was born as a Jinshi, and he is still a small sesame official after so many years of fainting, as soon as he thought of this, Yan Shifan was angry, and the single eye emitted a cold death light, and he kicked Zhao Wenhua who collapsed to the ground fiercely: "Waste!" Rubbish! Rubbish! Why did my dad accept such a waste son of you, there is more than enough success and more failure, you waste! The guts are the size of sesame dots, no wonder it has been wasted! ”

Tired of kicking, Yan Shifan's wine-colored hollowed out body really couldn't support it for long, so he stopped out of breath, threw the text in his hand to Zhao Wenhua, who was like a dead pig, and shouted: "If you can't do this, you will die!" Don't come back to see my daddy! Die with your family! Then he left the house with a curse.

After a while, Zhao Wenhua got up from the ground trembling all over, in fact, Yan Shifan's kick and beating just now was nothing, Yan Shifan's body bones had already been hollowed out by wine, just an empty shell, it didn't hurt at all, Yan Shifan's most terrifying thing was his head, it was the terrifying brain in his brain, Zhao Wenhua couldn't afford the slightest sense of resistance, so he walked out helplessly, and put his life on Yan Shifan's demon brain.

Soon, the children of Yan Song's connections accumulated in the officialdom for more than ten years have all received Yan Song's "special care", these people are not many, about twenty or thirty people, but the family behind each family is a family that is inextricably linked with Yan Song's family, it is Yan Song's greatest wealth, and it is also the biggest reliance that he can take over Xia Yan to take charge of the government for 20 years in the future. There are indeed those who are really capable of it.

In fact, the so-called special care is some keywords, write down the keywords in some places where the article is made, so that the marking officer knows which keywords belong to which person has been greeted, and the marking officer who has been greeted can easily select the outstanding ones in those papers to enter the second grade, and the mediocre weighing is put into the top three, between the two articles of the same level and level, they will definitely choose to say hello, and will not care about those who have not been greeted.

Anyway, the so-called they didn't choose the wrong person, it's true that the level is okay, it's not much different, just happened to meet someone who said hello, then naturally they will choose to say hello, who doesn't say hello, who cares about you! This is one of the important ways for those bigwigs in the court to supplement their own power, this trick, tried and tested, is not the first time to use, but sadly, the emperors of the Ming Dynasty never knew.

But the emperor doesn't know, it doesn't mean that no one knows, there are some things, there are really a lot of people who know, but everyone doesn't say it for their own safety, even if they don't have to think about their own safety, for the stability of the Ming Dynasty, even if they know, they may not say that the Ming Dynasty lacks everything, that is, there is no shortage of people who are wise and wise to protect themselves.

In the future, Yan Song's power is huge, the power is overwhelming, and there are forces controlled by Yan Song everywhere, perhaps from this moment on, Yan Song's power began to expand, but those who know it only use it as a very ordinary means, and no one really cares what Yan Song's real intention is in doing this, is it just a struggle for power and profit?

Yan Song has to do more than that.

The place where the examination was held was in the tribute courtyard of Beijing City, before Zhu Di moved the capital, Meng Yuan opened a branch here, held many exams, when Xu Da attacked Beijing, did not destroy this place, after Zhu Di moved the capital, rebuilt the Beijing Tribute Academy, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, the Beijing Tribute Courtyard was built more reasonable, and Nanjing's Jiangnan Tribute Courtyard was similar, it was the first batch of spacious and bright buildings, and then began to be low and uneven, but overall, it was still better than the Tribute Courtyard in Nanjing, After all, Beijing has always been the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and the references are all people with a certain status.

On the eighth day of the first month of February, the day before the examination, it was also the day of the official admission of the lifters, in early spring and February, when it was warm and cold, the weather was colder than the winter, and the sky was also late, early in the morning, before dawn, Zheng Guang got up, and after getting dressed, he went to drag Xu Wei out of the bed, and then washed, had breakfast, and after tidying up, Zheng Jiang had prepared the carriage and could set off to the Gongyuan to take the exam at any time.

This time, because there was one more Xu Fat man at home, the exam props originally prepared for Zheng Guang were copied and given to Xu Pang, and after Xu Pang saw Zheng Guang's exam props, he also sighed - no wonder your kid didn't come out for seven or eight days during the exam, it turned out that he was fully prepared, and there was no need to come out! The meat, rice, oil and noodles are all ready, it's still so cold, I'm not afraid it will spoil, you are prepared, ouch feed......

However, Xu Pang is also quite proud, remembering the simple equipment when he took the township exam before, he felt depressed, looking at the exam props prepared by Zheng Guang, he was moved, but also felt a little difficult, because he needed to get through the eight or nine days in the examination room, and he prepared what he ate and drank, and no one got it for you, but Xu Pang was also a scholar who was not diligent and industrious since he was a child, and you have to say that he is much stronger than Zheng Guang in poetry and songs, but in terms of survivability, ten Xu Pang bundles together are not Zheng Guang's opponents.

So Zheng Guang could only reluctantly teach Xu Pang how to cook.

How to wash rice, how to add water, how to light bamboo charcoal, how to tell if the rice is cooked, whether it can be eaten, and then how to add cured meat to it to make the rice more delicious and delicious, and more anti-hunger, how to add some oil to make the rice taste more delicious, and then how to cook noodles, how to cook porridge and so on.

Xu Pang is clumsy, a fire will be tossed for a long time to learn, a small pot and a small stove will not be used, if Xu Pang is thrown outside to survive in the wild, the next day he will go to collect his body, teach him to light the fire, and then teach him how to wash rice by hand, see if the rice is clean, and then teach him how much water to cook the best rice, and then put some oil and some cured meat, the oil is also there, the umami is also there, this rice is hot Don't eat other dishes.

Don't bring steamed buns and flatbreads on a cold day, this weather, steamed buns can be turned into stones with a stick of incense, hard enough to knock out your teeth, you can only bring some freshly made hot ones, so this requires everyone to learn a little survival skills, Xu Pang was reluctant to learn at first, shouting what gentleman is far away from cooking, and was beaten by Zheng Guang to learn honestly, although he was shocked that Zheng Guang had a good cooking skill.

After teaching Xu Pang how to cook rice, porridge and noodles, he also told Xu Pang that the small hammer he brought to him was used to knock on ice cubes, it was so cold, the water prepared in the tribute courtyard must have formed ice cubes, and the ice cubes could not be made without a small hammer, so there was no way to drink water, and the ice cubes should not be eaten directly, they would have diarrhea, and the ice cubes must be boiled into hot water before drinking.

It is best to leave the quilt and cotton coat, the most afraid of this day is to get sick in the examination room, you are not a day or two, but nine days, once you have a cold and fever, you can go home directly and wait for the next exam, so it is not only the knowledge and talent that will be tested, but also the survival ability and life skills, those pampered young masters are difficult to persist in these nine days, which is also a big advantage for us.

Xu Pang listened to Zheng Guang's chatter, and suddenly felt that Zheng Guang could come this far, and he really responded to what he said, so this is what he deserves, not some so-called genius, work hard like him, if you can't get this, it's called a strange thing!

Therefore, I, Xu Wenchang, can't be left behind by you! Zheng Pingzhi!

Will try, here comes the master!

Xu Pang rushed to the carriage to send the test with high spirits......
