Remember for a second [Think โ™‚รท Ke โ˜… Xiao โ–ณ said ยง Net . Org], wonderful free reading without pop-ups!

Liu Guanglu, the son of Liu Longhai, the former secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was born in the second year of Xianqing, and said that this brother Tai began to take the imperial examination at the age of eighteen, and as a result, he did not become an official until he was thirty years old, and he took the examination for twelve years.

Comrade Liu Guanglu's family lives in Chang'an, and every year when the examination season comes, students from other places have to set off from their homes a few months in advance, all the way through the wind and rain, climbing mountains and rivers to Chang'an to take the exam, and every time at this time, Comrade Liu Guanglu is drinking tea at home, listening to small songs, how happy and happy he is.

If you don't say that the Beijing household registration is good, you don't have to go to Beijing to take the exam, and by the way, you can save a lot of expenses.

But martyr Mr. Liu Longhai, don't be in a hurry to be happy, although your good son saved you the cost of going to Beijing to take the exam, but more money is still waiting for you to spend.

As for this more money...... For Liu Laoshangshu, it is nothing, in the words of his good son Comrade Liu Guanglu, "Is this called money?" What's so special about it being called money? "To put it mildly, Liu Laoshangshu's family background is already in the background, and the rich can rival the country, and the rich rival state is quite appropriate.

Comrade Liu Longhai is a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, a member of the second rank of the court, what white income, gray income, is very prosperous, but there is one point, that is, Liu Martyr is more upright, and he doesn't like to engage in any crooked ways, think about it carefully, if he is really a guy who wants to go through the back door when he encounters something, Liu Guanglu will not eat his 12 years of idle food at home, right?

A bastard who is corrupt and takes bribes doesn't seem to have much to do with the word integrity, but just looking at his performance before he died, you can know that not all corrupt officials are villains like Zhou Yushi who sell their heads for glory.

Alas, if the imperial court can make more money, so that these officials can eat and drink spicy food every day, and live a prosperous life, it is estimated that there will be a lot fewer corrupt officials, after all, when the big guys first entered the officialdom, they all came with a passion to save the country and save the people, and under the premise that the situation allows, who doesn't want to be a selfless and honest official.

But the reality of the situation does not allow them to be a clean official at all, and if they are not corrupt at that time..... It's not an exaggeration to live as well as a common people, it's not an exaggeration at all, the Qing officials who don't collect any black money have a meal of chaff, big porridge, and patches on their clothes, which is called a miserable.

Meat? Still thinking about eating meat? Stop dreaming, can you afford meat for your dead wages!

Have you ever heard of Lord Hai Ruihai in the Ming Dynasty? He is a representative figure among the Qing officials, so he can count the opportunity to eat meat in a year with his fingers.

Chinese New Year, improve your life, eat once, eat once for your mother's birthday, don't think about your birthday with your wife, add a small cold dish, even if you celebrate.

If you are lucky enough to catch up with your boss to inspect the work, if you don't pay for the meal yourself, you can also follow suit, but if you ask him to have a meal......

Then I'm sorry, cabbage bangzi, millet porridge, make do with it, I'm used to eating anyway, if you don't think you can eat it, then don't eat it, I don't have to cook tomorrow.

It is rumored that the living standard of Haida people belonged to the same level as the poorest people in the remote mountainous areas at that time, even if he later became a big official, the living standard still did not improve much, and the first official uniform at home was good, and the others were patched rags, walking on the street, if they met the beggars, it was estimated that they would treat him as a new second bag of disciples.

Officials who are not corrupt or take bribes, and who are honest and honest are the end!

Therefore, it is simply a fantasy to be an official and not to be corrupt, if you think about it, the big guy has worked hard for more than ten years, and every day he is hanging from the beam, cone and stabbing stocks, and studying hard, what is the picture? Don't tell me that the picture is to experience the hard life of the grassroots people, who will believe the when you say it?

Isn't it just for the sake of being in the middle of the day, glorifying their ancestors, and making themselves a master.

But who has ever seen a person who is not as good as a common man......

If I can, I don't want to be greedy, this is a sentence in the hearts of corrupt officials when they received the first black money in their lives, and the last black money.

When martyr Liu Longhai first entered the officialdom, like He Shen and adults, he was a big clean official, and he unswervingly followed the concept in his heart for a year, and then ...... The pot can't be opened at home, his wife's hungry eyes are full of gold stars, and Liu Guanglu is about to grab food from the dogs of big families.....

Liu Laoshangshu was in tears when he saw this scene, and wondered if he would have to go out to borrow loan sharks in two days to make ends meet...... Damn, Lao Tzu is also an official, why do you have to borrow money to live, is there any reason for this?

Hey, it just so happened that someone asked him to help with his errands at this time, and he also gave a lot of benefit fees.

Liu Longhai struggled for a while, then accepted the first black money, and the sentence just now appeared in his heart, but when it came to the second and third payments, that sentence had long been replaced by another sentence.

It's nice to be rich.

Back to Comrade Liu Guanglu.

Comrade Liu Guanglu's academic performance is the same as his appearance, ordinary to the limitless, at the age of eighteen he entered the examination room with high ambitions, full of confidence written all the exam papers, when he came out of the examination room, Liu Longhai asked him how he did in the exam, Liu Guanglu patted his chest and said: "Dad, don't worry, I have answered all the questions." โ€

Lao Shangshu was happy to hear this, seeing that this kid is so confident, he must have done well in the exam, this time he should be able to win, well, I have to hurry up to worship Guanyin Bodhisattva, thank her old man for bless her son, by the way, I have to prepare to contact the restaurant, and when this kid is named on the gold list, he has to celebrate.

But Liu Longhai didn't know that Liu Guanglu's words were only half of what he said.

"Dad, don't worry, I answered it all, but I just can't understand what those questions are talking about......"

Well, there are no accidents, Liu Guanglu fell off the list in the first year.....

Liu Longhai didn't say anything about this, this is normal, he also took the exam twice in a row before he was admitted, and he might be successful next time, so he is not in a hurry.

The result is a second ....... Still missed.

Thirdly...... Still missed.

Liu Laoshang was depressed, he didn't understand, why did his son not pass the exam three times in a row?

Liu Laoshangshu rarely disciplines this son, he is busy with big and small things in the court every day, and when he has nothing to do, he has to go to scavenge for oil and water, how can he have time to care about his son's study, anyway, in his understanding, his child's academic performance should be okay, after all, it is his bloodline.

Lao Shangshu is completely thinking too much, what can your bloodline do? The bloodline of the emperor is not much better than yours, and the descendants should not be the same.

After Comrade Liu Guanglu's three consecutive failures, Liu Laoshangshu gradually figured out what the problem was.

On the second day after the end of the imperial examination, Liu Laoshangshu rarely did not go out to eat and drink with those fox friends and dog friends, but stayed at home, tonight he wants to test his son, to see how his learning level is, to get good grades, but not to play well, it doesn't matter, he continues to provide for him, when he will be admitted and when he will be talked.

But if his grades are too bad, he is afraid that he will not be able to get a career in his life by relying on his own skills...... That...... Then he, a father, can only bleed once, for the sake of his son, even if he scatters the family property, what can he do.

Lao Shangshu is a good father, because Comrade Liu Guanglu has never belonged to the former, and is a proper backward element, just one point, when Lao Shangshu was going to test him that night, this brother actually disappeared, and after a while he ran back out of breath.

It turned out that he went to Yihong Mansion to drink flower wine, and halfway suddenly remembered that his father had something to do with him, so he rushed back all the way.

After the simple test was completed, Liu Longhai looked at the answer that Liu Guanglu wrote for him, and almost cried and fainted in the toilet, don't say if the answer is right or not, this kid can even write words wrong, a total of less than 300 words, Liu Longhai found more than 160 typos in it...... Oh my God, this kid's learning level is too bad.

Liu Longhai had no choice but to bleed profusely.

Three years later, Comrade Liu Guanglu, who took a total of 12 years, was finally admitted to the Jinshi, and anyone with a discerning eye knew what was going on, but it was strange here, because no one went to Li Zhi to report Liu Longhai.

Not only did he have a good relationship with Liu Longhai, but his sworn enemies, such as the officials of Yushitai, who were the most famous in the past, actually tacitly became dumb, and did not say a word about how Liu Guanglu became a jinshi.

This is a bit strange, Liu Laoshangshu, who has been an official for more than ten years, has a lot of political enemies, after all, he often walks by the river, how can he not get his shoes wet, even if you are a good person in the court, there will still be enemies, because if you don't mess with others, it doesn't mean that others won't mess with you, that is, you don't like it.

There are many reasons why it is not pleasing to the eye, for example, you invited you to dinner two days ago, and everyone invited you, but you didn't invite me, well, although you don't know each other, and you don't know each other, but you don't respect me, okay, wait for you to die.

For example, why did the two of you meet on the street today, you didn't say hello to me, good boy, dare not put Lao Tzu in your eyes, wait for you to die, although the two of you were more than 20 meters away at that time, you may not see me, but you can't say hello to me.

It's ridiculous to say, but most of the officials are this dead virtue, be careful.

Liu Laoshangshu also inadvertently dismissed a lot of political enemies, most of which are due to the above ridiculous reasons......

Can..... Since Liu Laoshangshu can be regarded as having a lot of enemies, why did no one take advantage of this incident to attack him? You must know that once Li Zhi catches Liu Longhai buying off the imperial examination examiner, the lightest thing is to fill the army, what a good opportunity this is.

As for why those officials knew that Liu Longhai had bought off the imperial examination officials..... In fact, they don't know, it's purely a guess, and it's a very definite guess, which starts with Comrade Liu Guanglu's second imperial examination.
