Chapter 238: A Handful of Wolf Fur
As we all know, the imperial examination is roughly divided into three stages: the township examination, the meeting examination, and the palace examination.
Because the difficulty is too high, there is no one in ten thousand people in this kind of person, and since the imperial examination system has existed, it is rare to have a situation of even three yuan.
After all, the examiner is also a human being, and people have their own likes and dislikes, no matter how good the candidate's literary style is, if you don't look at it, you can't look at it, and the examiner didn't brush it off the list, all because of its beautiful handwriting.
Therefore, in addition to having ink in the belly, a large part of the reason for the excellent foundation can stand the test is luck and the ability to figure out the examiner's mind.
Hall.
Also known as the test hall, it's not like that.
Because of the examination, candidates from all over the country gathered in Beijing, except for the local candidates in Shuntianfu, the rest had to be a month in advance, and even set off directly after the township examination.
Don't talk about the journey, there is still the trouble of talking with chickens and ducks in the accent, and the Beijing master who is not familiar with the place of life is inevitably bullied by the store.
Later, when many officials and businessmen saw that their fellow villagers were being deceived, they invested in the purchase of real estate for the candidates from their fellow townspeople, and the guild hall flourished.
Of course, part of the main reason is that most of the scholars are from ordinary families, and they are not given a place to live, so they can only sleep on the street.
After all, it is a Beijing teacher, the land is expensive, there is no broken temple to stay in, and poor scholars can only sleep on the street.
At this moment, in a guild hall, a group of fellow candidates gathered together to chat, and mentioned a recent major event as they spoke.
The court didn't know which one was crazy, and most of the officials in the court were punished, and they were directly pushed to the end and sent to a remote place to be a small official.
Those who are guilty are now treated, and those who are not guilty will take the broken incident of Chen Sesame and Messy Valley more than ten years ago and say, in a word, it is not to let you stay in Beijing as an official.
Then, a holy decree was issued, and the prisoners in the prison were lightly taken and sent back to the court.
is like the well-known Shangshu Fu Tianqiu of the Ministry of Rites, who was not only reinstated as an official, but also further entered the East Palace and became the prince's teacher.
Although he doesn't have any real power, he is still in charge of the Ministry of Rites as before, but after all, the prince and the prince are from the official position of Yipin, plus a sword that does not behead the emperor at the top and Shangfang at the bottom......
Well, the emperor's grace is so vast that other officials can't afford to provoke it.
Half of the vacant official positions were filled, and the other half, the emperor activated the old officials and ruffians who were idle at home in the Beijing Division, and asked them to re-report on their duties, barely operating the paralyzed Beijing Division.
This group of people are all losers in the partisan struggle, and few have a good reputation, and most of them are more powerful in addition to their good beards.
It's better to use them than to use me!
This is the mind of many candidates, who don't understand why the emperor let go of capable people and promoted a group of old antiques who are about to die. If it is said that it is a struggle between party members, this group of officials who have been brushed down have all factions, and each of them has suffered heavy losses, and there is no one faction who is the winner.
Could it be that the emperor was intimidated by the huge power of civil officials, so he ......
It's not right, I heard that the emperor cut down a few close eunuchs and commanders overnight, and he was choked with pain.
"The door in the court is too profound, I still don't think about it, I have gossip, this time the meeting will try to have Master Shangshu of the Ministry of Etiquette in charge of the overall situation, everyone go back and flip through the articles written by Master Fu, this is the right reason."
"Your news is outdated, yesterday there was 'Fu Shangshu Wenlu' on the street, and I just happened to buy a copy."
"Coincidentally, I bought a copy too."
“……”
The candidates found out the 'Fu Shangshu Wenlu' in their arms, and after comparison, they were stunned to find that the version was actually different, and it was not from the same bookstore.
It's really evil, it can only be said that it is worthy of the feet of the Son of Heaven, two of the ten people are officials, and the remaining eight are all related to each other, and all of them are well-informed.
"Damn, in this way, we will have no advantage!"
"If only I could see Master Fu and ask for a word."
"Don't laugh, how much money do you have to ask Master Fu to sell you words?"
"You...... How can you sell the things of a scholar...... Insulting Sven! ”
It's no wonder that the candidates tried their best to find a way, but everyone really learned well and knew the importance of pleasing the examiner.
The examination was presided over by the Ministry of Etiquette, and the emperor appointed Fu Tianqiu to take charge of the overall situation, and whether the candidates from all over the country and the students of the Guozi Prison could be in high school, whether they could squeeze into the three hundred places, and whether they could squeeze into the last palace examination, it all depended on his face.
As he was talking, there was a sudden commotion outside the hall, and a scholar ran into the room with a face full of ecstasy and slapped it on the table: "Master Shangfu of the Ministry of Rites is here, and the sedan chair will stop at the door of our hall." ”
"No, what are you doing in our guild hall?"
"Which virtuous brother is from a prominent background, deliberately low-key to people, stand up quickly. If you have offended a lot before, the younger brother is not talented, I am willing to scatter all the family wealth, and Lichun Courtyard will be the east tonight, please be a good brother...... Listen to the tunes. ”
“……”
No one answered, and a group of people stared at each other, and they all said that the ancestral family was poor, and it was no problem to have a relationship with the Shangshu of the Dynasty, and it was okay to sell himself to Shangshu Mansion to be a scholar.
But after a while, the family opened the way, and Fu Tianqiu walked in with his two daughters.
"Student XXX has seen Master Fu!" xN
A group of candidates tried their best to report their names loudly, but everyone was very loud, so Fu Tianqiu didn't hear any of them.
He frowned and swept over the candidates, who were not similar in temperament and figure, and frowned: "Students, which one is Cui Hongchuan?" ”
The Fu family sisters shook their heads slightly, they had seen their own faces, and they were very sure that there was no Cui Hongjian here.
“……”
Everyone looked at each other, and one of them pointed to the inner room in the corridor: "Brother Cui Xian is studying in the house, I'll call him out." ”
"No, I'll go find him."
Fu Tianqiu straightened off his clothes and went straight to the inner room of the guild hall, leaving a group of dumbfounded candidates, thinking about Cui Hong's origins, and actually made the Ministry of Rites Shangshu willing to let go of his identity.
Could it be the illegitimate son of the emperor?
No, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites is the prince's teacher, so there is no need to see an illegitimate child and make it so grand, unless......
Understood, Cui Hongchuan is the illegitimate son of the Ministry of Rites, and today Lao Tzu came to look for relatives, and by the way, he leaked the exam questions.
……
"You are Cui Hongji?"
Fu Tianqiu looked at Cui Hongjian with a bewildered face, with a slight disappointment in his eyes, he was not the person he was looking for.
The Fu sisters were also full of disappointment, different people with the same name, and they were happy in vain.
"Student Cui Hongchuan, meet Master Shangshu."
Cui Hong gradually put down the 'Fu Shangshu Wenlu' in his hand, he was close in front of him, and he was still reading a fart Wenlu, but he was puzzled, Shangshu is such a big official, he has nothing to do with him, could it be that he is still the illegitimate son of an emperor?
Disappointed in his heart, Fu Tianqiu couldn't turn around and leave, trying to say a few words like 'study hard', 'a talent', 'I'm optimistic about you'.
The Fu sisters didn't want to stay, turned around and wanted to leave, and when they passed by the door, they happened to staggered by Xiaoshuang who walked in with tea.
The latter was dressed as a scholar, but he had thin arms and legs, and his chest was not tied properly, which made Fu Yuechi quite frustrated, and muttered: "This scholar, who seems to be poor but carries a pretty girl with him, is far worse than that one." ”
There was an embarrassment in the house, and Fu Qingfeng dragged his sister and told her not to talk nonsense.
Character was questioned, especially in front of the examiner, everything had to be explained, Cui Hong gradually decisively said: "Miss misunderstood, although Miss Xiaoshuang is a maid, she is not my maid, I brought her to Beijing to catch the exam in order to help her find her son-in-law." ”
"Oh, and that kind of thing?" Fu Yuechi became interested and wanted to hear what Cui Hong gradually continued.
After a while, several people in the room stared at each other, realizing that something was wrong.
"The Liao Wenjie in your mouth, is there a red sword with you and a mask on your face?"
"There is no mask, the red sword does have one, and there is also a red umbrella."
Cui Hong's eyes widened, and he asked rhetorically: "Dare to ask Lord Shangshu, what you said about 'Cui Hongji', is there a bearded man named Yan Chixia next to him, fierce, and he speaks ill of everyone?" ”
"Hisss ————"
That's right!
"It's strange, Brother Jie is not a traitor, why do you borrow my name?" Cui Hongjian looked sullen again, and couldn't think of the reason.
Fu Qingfeng thought about it a little and roughly understood the reason, Liao Wenjie borrowed Cui Hongji's name, not because the rivers and lakes were sinister, but because he had another deep meaning.
Just listened to Cui Hong's story of the experience of Wumenju, Fu Qingfeng felt familiar, think about it carefully, even have paintings, isn't this a copy of Xiaoqian's girl!
The difference is that Cui Hongjian and Mo Chou had a marriage, and they also worshiped heaven and earth, Liao Wenjie directly sent Xiaoqian to reincarnation and broke off his evil relationship with his own hands.
It must be that he is talking about the different paths of people and ghosts, but he is reluctant to give up in his heart, so it is not difficult to understand what Cui Hongji's name means.
"After three years, there will be no ...... to live in"
Fu Tianqiu nodded secretly, ready to let his two daughters run away in three years, if Liao Wenjie dared to say goodbye without saying goodbye, he would dare to marry his daughter.
"You are a big man, and you are about to try, put other people's maids by your side, what kind of system, I'll help you bring it!"
Fu Yuechi's eyes lit up, staring at Xiaoshuang without blinking, smart as she had found a way to break the situation, thinking about taking Liao Wenjie's maid with her, and afraid that the other party would not come to her?
"Huh!?"
——————————
The black vortex reversed, and Liao Wenjie sat cross-legged on the carpet, raising his hand to look at the ...... in his hand A handful of wolf hair.
A few meanings, such a big one and three blacks, why is there only hair left?
He remembered very well that when he slapped Sanhei down, then grabbed the hair on the back of his neck, and the black vortex struck, and then ......
"If it's hard to get down, it should hurt a lot!"
Liao Wenjie had a cold back of his neck, since Sanhei didn't bring it back, he couldn't be named Sanhei, a white-eyed wolf who couldn't be raised, what did it have to do with him whether it hurt or not.
Just think about it.
He got up and walked towards the bathroom, he hadn't taken a good shower in a long time, and he had to soak for a while today.
"This hair, whether it is long or short, can be combed and parted like the big brother of the heavenly cripple!"
