After more than 200 years, the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty has been covered by a dense net, and everyone is implicated by the relationship between fellow villagers, classmates, in-laws, old people, teachers and students, etc. Naturally, it is divided into "own people" and "not own people".

When I didn't know Mr. Zhang Ke, Wang Huazhen was just appreciating it and felt that the young man was very clever. But when he heard that his teacher was Hong Fu??, Wang Huazhen suddenly smiled, and excitedly held Zhang Ke's hand, just like his own junior.

Of course, not everyone has this treatment, and they have to rely on real skills to earn it, but without this relationship, people don't take you to play at all.

Wang Huazhen happily took Zhang Ke to the temporary residence, and as soon as she sat down, there was a maid serving tea.

"Yongzhen, this is the temporary residence of the horse market, it is inevitable that it will be a little cramped and simple, you will just take it!"

Although Zhang Ke knew that there was a layer of relationship, he also understood that the relationship had to be managed slowly, and if he dared to get carried away, he would be blacklisted immediately, so he was even more sincere than just now.

"My lord, I was born with a hard snack in my later years, and I slept in the wild on the way to Quang Ninh, and it was like a dream when I arrived here!"

"Hahaha, young people have suffered hard, and the official has also studied hard, what books have you read?"

"In the first two years, I was just literate, but when my teacher arrived in Yizhou, he taught the Four Books and the Five Classics, and later let the later students read history books, read Han Fu, and Tang people's articles."

Wang Huazhen nodded: "Didn't I tell you about the eight-strand Shiwen?" ”

"Before I had time to talk about it, Mr. entered Beijing at the beginning of the year, but he left dozens of written articles for the late students to study, and the late students were reckless in their qualifications, and they couldn't even pass the county exam, which disappointed the teacher's cultivation."

"Hahaha, Yongzhen, I see that you are very shrewd, but you are too layman to take the imperial examination." Wang Huazhen said with a smile: "Everyone in the world thinks that the provisions of the Bagu article are too rigid, dull and depressed, and those who come out of the exam are nerds." In fact, it's completely different, you look at which of the civil officials of the Manchu Dynasty is not full of wealth and shrewdness. ”

Zhang Ke didn't expect Wang Huazhen to talk about the imperial examination, he didn't know this person's habits, so he didn't dare to say more, so he could only listen honestly.

"It may not be difficult to take the test for a show, as long as you read through hundreds of current texts, ponder the examiner's likes and dislikes, and vote for what he likes, you can be admitted."

As a civil official who relied on the imperial examination, he actually deconstructed the imperial examination, Wang Huazhen's words were out of line, but who made him appreciate Zhang Ke, fortunately, he understood it once and again, promoted the juniors, and also formed a favor.

Wang Huazhen looked at Zhang Ke's contemplative appearance and said with a smile: "I said that it is easy to take the test, are you not convinced?" ”

"Of course not, the late students just feel that their qualifications are stupid, and they are really not allowed to enter!"

"Hahaha, it's nothing more than some test-taking joints, which he will teach you when your teacher comes back. What I want to tell you is that you may be able to be admitted to the show, or even lift people, but don't think about high school jinshi. I don't dare to say that the Jinshi of every subject in the Ming Dynasty are full of heroes, but they are all the top smart people in the world. To stand out among them, your essay must be beautifully written, well-reasoned, and majestic. These are not things that can be obtained by holding the Four Books and the Five Classics. The reasoning should be based on the Confucianism of the Song and Yuan dynasties, and the literary tone should learn the Xiongwen of the Han and Tang dynasties. The Four Books and Five Classics are all written in the pre-Qin period, and if you want to understand the meaning of the text, you must use the allusions of the three generations and learn to use the past for the present. ”

Wang Huazhen said in one breath, and looked at Zhang Ke with a smile, "Do you now understand why the teacher asked you to read history and literature?" ”

"Late students understand, the teacher wants me to lay a good foundation, the eight shares are just a form, stuck in it, it is difficult to go to high school, only if you have goods in your belly, can you make a good article!"

"Well said, well said!" Wang Huazhen's face suddenly became gloomy, pointed at Zhang Ke with his finger, and said with a slap on his face: "Yongzhen, your teacher has high hopes for you, but why are you willing to fall, I heard that you came to the horse market to sell goods." Don't you understand, the most important thing for literati is integrity, once contaminated with copper odor, even if you pass the exam in the future, turning this paragraph out will affect your future! ”

Zhang Ke could hear that Wang Huazhen was sincere, if he had passed twenty or thirty years earlier, Zhang Ke might have studied honestly and took the imperial examination. But in another 20 years, the world will change hands, Huaxia**. No matter how many books you read, no matter how big an official you are, will you be a slave to the Tartars!

These words can't be said to Wang Huazhen, Zhang Ke can only bow down and say: "Lord Qiyu, there is really something unspeakable in your later life. ”

"Speak!"

"Yes, the late student failed the exam and contracted the disease, and the mother borrowed twenty taels of silver in order to treat the late student, and it was not far from the Chinese New Year, and the creditor came to the door, and the late student had to come to the Quang Ninh horse market, wanting to earn some silver and repay the debt."

"Ahh I see! Wang Huazhen nodded: "I misunderstood you, did you make money in Guangning?" ”

"Lord Qiyu, I earned seventy taels of silver in my later life."

"Hahaha, you kid is smarter than Sun Monkey, you can't make no money!" Wang Huazhen said with a smile: "But business is a small way after all, you may indulge in it, so let's do it, since the family is difficult, you can go to the official to do a book." Help sort out the manuscripts, write the documents, and I will mention the eight shares of the current text again, and wait for the imperial court to take the scholars. ”

Wang Huazhen said again: "Yongzhen, don't hide it, Liaodong is a mess now, and it's not easy for me to do this senator, you have to help me!" ”

"Your Excellency!" Zhang Ke hurriedly stood up and said: "Adults can see that they are born late, it is a blessing for them to be born later, and they should serve adults, but they still have to say from the bottom of their hearts and want to report to adults." ”

"Say, we don't have to see each other."

If you want to do things, you can't do without a backer, Wang Huazhen is the best choice right now, but obviously this planning path is completely different from what Zhang Ke thinks, and he has to be persuaded to be.

"My lord, before I came to Guangning in my later years, I still wanted to take the path of the imperial examination, glorify my ancestors, and serve the country. It was only after arriving in Quang Ninh that he felt a little self-deceiving! Jiannu is fierce, and after digesting the land it occupies, it will inevitably go south to occupy the whole of Liao. The Mongols often rebelled, and my Ming Dynasty was in internal and external difficulties in Liaodong. It's just that Liaodong is another arm of the Beijing Division, there is something in Liaodong, the Beijing Division is shaking, the Beijing Division is shaking, and the world is shaking! With all due respect, this crisis is ten thousand times more dangerous than the three major expeditions, but our dynasty's civil and military forces do not have the sharpness of the past, and the situation in Liaodong is afraid to erode. ”

When Zhang Ke spoke, he remembered the familiar history, and he was extremely sad and indignant.

"My lord, I was born as a citizen of Liaodong in my later life, my father went on an expedition to North Korea, killed the Japanese and raised the prestige of tomorrow, and I also had a brother in my later life, who also left home two years ago to join the army, and now he is still serving in front of the Liaoyang army. In his later life, he wanted to join the army, wear a strong and stubborn one, and swear to defend this splendid territory to the death, and never allow the Tartars to touch a point! ”

Wang Huazhen listened to Zhang Ke's words, and couldn't help but be moved, it is true that Liaodong is in danger, and a hot-blooded young man like Zhang Ke is also needed to conquer and kill the territory, but ......

"Yongzhen, Wenwu Shutu, I am a great scholar and a martial artist, if you really become a martial artist, won't it affect your future?"

"My lord, my late life is less than twenty years old, even if I have been in the army for five years or ten years, I can still study and make progress in my later life, and when Liaodong is pacified, I will be relieved and return to the field in my later life."

Wang Huazhen smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I'm afraid that I will die in the future!" ”

"All in all, I can't sit back and watch the land soaked in the blood of my father and ancestors fall into the hands of the Tartars, and I ask the adults to fulfill it." Zhang Ke knelt on one knee in front of Wang Huazhen as he spoke.

Wang Huazhen could also see that the young man in front of him was very stubborn, but he was afraid that he would not change!

But it would be a pity that such a good seedling was sent to the barracks and turned into a vulgar martial artist. He walked back and forth on the ground a few times, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

"Yongzhen, you get up first, I have a problem right now, as long as you can help me solve it, I will promise to help you."

"Your Excellency, please speak!" Zhang Ke asked excitedly.

"Hahaha, don't be too happy. Although the incident subsided, I killed a Han man after all, and in the eyes of the Manchu officials, I connived at the Tartars. And from now on, once the Mongols are arrogant and frequently cause trouble, how should they deal with it? ”

Wang Huazhen's words just said his problem, Da Ming is now strong outside, but there are still a bunch of officials who don't eat fireworks in the world, and the people who do things in front are all bellows rats, afraid of this and that.

Zhang Ke's mind turned quickly, and he suddenly laughed: "My lord, I will try to solve this dilemma in my later life, and the court must maintain the system of the Ming Dynasty if you want to save face." It's just that you don't have enough strength in your hands to subdue the Mongols, and you can't convince people with strength, but you can only convince people with virtue. But if you treat the Mongols well, you will attract criticism, yes or no? ”

"Yongzhen is right, it's not going in, it's not going back, it's not doing it well, it's not a person inside and out, how should you grasp this heat?"

"Hahaha, there are eight words in the late life, the Mongols are more lenient and strict, and the Han people are more lenient and strict."

"What do you mean by that?"

"My lord, if the Mongols make trouble, they must be punished, and there can be no exceptions, otherwise they cannot be deterred. The Han merchants should be treated leniently, but if there is a serious crime, they must be killed to make an example, and they must be killed in front of the Mongols to set an example. ”

Wang Huazhen carefully touched Zhang Ke's words, walked around the ground twice, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and immediately understood Zhang Ke's thoughts.

To put it bluntly, this is a trick of three and four days, the Mongols make mistakes in and out, and if they make mistakes, they will be caught, but the punishment is not heavy, so that they are afraid of Huaide. As for the Han people, it is the opposite, strict entry and strict exit, small mistakes are let go, and once caught, they will be severely punished.

It seems to be a big deal against the Han people, but in fact it is a big bargain! After all, the goods of both sides, coupled with the business mind, the Han people take advantage, as long as the food is not ugly, they will not make trouble. At the same time, I also gave an explanation to the Mongols, we all killed, what do you want! Even if he stabbed the imperial court, Wang Huazhen had no fault.

Zhang Ke is not very old, but his idea is more sophisticated and sophisticated than that of ordinary old officials, and it is to the point, which is exactly in line with Wang Huazhen's wishes.

"Yongzhen, just with your idea, I really want to keep you by my side, but since I promised to allow you to join the army, I can't break my word, you say, where do you want to go, this official will help you with activities."
