The spring equinox of the fourteenth year of Zhongxing is the first subject after Xuannan became pro-government. Outside the palace, the sun is shining, and the grass grows and the warbler flies. The lifters were in high spirits, and in the early morning, the lifters carried baskets and lined up to enter the tribute courtyard under the guidance of the officials.

Song Chu was dressed in a blue silk shirt and a corner hat on his head, his expression was calm, and he was determined to win. The head is an ornament of the nobility, and it is particularly conspicuous in a scarf of a poor scholar.

Seeing Song Chu, the little official who searched his body arched his hand with a smile and said, "Chongde Gong, the villain has offended." ”

Song Chu nodded, spread his arms, and searched from his armpits to his ankles by the little official. Then he opened the Luodian lacquerware basket containing the four treasures of the study, and a pair of rough and simple knee pads stood out among those expensive Huimohu pens. The little official was just about to check it, but Song Chu squinted his eyes and said, "This knee pad is also something you can touch?" ”

"Grandpa forgives, and the villain is also acting on orders." The little official said stubbornly.

"Hmm." Song Chu nodded impatiently.

The little official pinched it carefully, shook it, and said, "It's okay." Come to the word No. 5, grandfather please. ”

Song Chu picked up the basket and walked in with his head held high.

After all the lifters sat in their pavilions, the gongs and drums sounded, and the gate of the tribute courtyard was closed.

Then the officials sent the papers to the candidates' cabinets. Song Chu opened the seal with the words "Seal of the Imperial Examination Rite Department" in the thirteenth year of Zhongxing of the National Dynasty, and turned the first page to review the topic.

Since His Majesty's arrival in the Imperial Palace, he has been working hard all night, but he has been ruling the government and purging the people's livelihood, and the people's livelihood has been healthy and well-being, and he has landed in the domain of Renshou at home and abroad. And the treatment effect is rare, the worries are deep, the health is virtuous, and it fails to meet the expectations of the will, why is it wrong?

If there are many ways to recuperate, and the ointment may not be investigated, the provincial patrol will be moved, and the suffering may be overwhelming. rewards and punishes ink, and the officials are still treacherous. Guisu is heavy on agriculture, and Lu Yan is not rich. Is it so hard to get rid of the accumulated habits? Or is there a lack of implementation?

I hereby want to make Dafa Xiaolian, the people safe and secure, and gradually more than the rule of Chunpang, what can be done?

To the Huai and Huang rivers, the people's livelihood is the road, after several readings, the instructions are appropriate, and the ministers of the river workers are lazy and playful, so that the project is slowed down, and the bottom performance is difficult. What is the way to make the ministers of the river affairs, the solid manager, the dredging and building appropriate, the early play of the heisei, the grain ship is correct, and the people's houses are forever laid?

Erdos Yun has been healthy for a long time, please read in detail in this article.

This is a question about the politics of the Yellow River. In the early spring of this year, the ice and snow melted, so that the Yellow River took over. In addition to the floods in the first and sixth years of Zhongxing, it was the most violent this year. Since the difficulty of Jing'an, the Central Plains has been fighting for many years, and the water conservancy of Huanghuai has not been repaired for a long time, resulting in droughts and floods, and the number of displaced people has increased.

The diversion of the Yellow River not only made the people homeless, but also prevented the grain from Jiangnan and Shu from reaching the capital in time, which threatened the stability of Bianliang.

In the past, when the river was unimpeded, six or seven thousand trough ships would go north along the canal every year to transport millions of stone grain from Jiangnan and Shu to the front line to ensure the supply of grain for the war against Jin. Since Emperor Shenzong of Great Chu and Prime Minister Wang Shi'an implemented the Qingmiao Law, the treasury has accumulated a lot of wealth, but it was completely destroyed by Emperor Daojun. Everyone only said that he was extravagant, but they did not know that it had a lot to do with the flooding of the Yellow River at that time. Later, the reason why Dachu was able to restore the country was also to take advantage of the famine after the flooding of the Yellow River in the Jin Kingdom.

Therefore, the task of governing the Huanghuai waters is to manage the world well, and more than half of the task has been completed.

Thinking of this, Song Chu put pen to paper sparsely. Until the evening, when the weather was getting colder, Song Chu took out the pair of knee pads from the lacquerware basket and put them on, and after a while, his knees were no longer cold. He raised his head, and looked at the silver moon through the crack in the roof of the pavilion, like her delicate face, and he couldn't help but smile.

He agreed with her that when the title of the gold list was inscribed, he would go to Lin'an with his mother and propose marriage to the Marquis of Wuren's mansion.

"Bang bang!" The gongs and drums of the Gongyuan were sounded again, and the officials shouted: "Stop writing! Stop writing! ”

Song Chu stopped his pen in a panic, and a cloud of ink was pasted on the surface of the scroll. Eh, it's a pity that this paper is thin and golden.

"All the candidates came out and stood in two columns." Zhao Yan, the examiner's secretary of the Ministry of Etiquette, ordered.

Everyone walked out of the pavilion and came to the atrium of the Gongyuan and looked at each other.

"It's so well written, what's going on?"

"I don't know what's going on......"

Zhao Yan walked to the middle of the two columns and shouted, "Someone reported it, and someone was entrained in the examination room." Now everyone undresses! ”

"The ...... of this cold day"

"Who's to say it's not......"

The lifters whispered, and although they were reluctant, they still untied their clothes one after another.

Song Chu first took off his hat and untied the knee pads tied to his knees, and then a piece of paper the size of a leaf card fell to the ground.

Zhao Yan's eyes were like torches, and he picked up and unfolded the leaf-sized paper, which was full of dense, rice-grain-sized words, and he couldn't see clearly without a little good eyesight. His sharp gaze fell on Song Chu, and he forcibly suppressed his anger and asked, "Who are you?" ”

"No...... Not mine...... I didn't have entrained ....... Song Chu panicked.

"Who are you, I ask?" Zhao Yan said coldly.

"Student...... Gyeonggi-do ...... Song Chu. Song Chu lowered his head, and tears filled his eyes: "The student is not entrained!" ”

"Come on, put on the flail!" Zhao Yan said loudly: "Is there anything else?" If I find out again, I will punish him according to the laws of the land! ”

The lifters were silent, and continued to take off their shirts and pants just now, looking at each other, not daring to speak.

"Others are searching the pavilion!" Zhao Yan said coldly.

Three days later, as soon as the gongs and drums sounded, the gate of the Gongyuan was opened again, and a group of lifters poured out, walking in pairs and threes. Some people are elated, some people are depressed, some people are eagerly discussing the topic, and some people are silent.

"Finally the exam is over! Why don't I do the east, how about you please get together in Fan Lou? The well-off man said aloud among the crowds who surrounded him.

"That's a good dare!"

"Brother Wang is generous!"

"It seems that Brother Wang is determined to win. Ha ha! ”

The lifters talked loudly, and the team walked towards Fan Lou.

At this time, the two gray linen clothed men and the large team gradually drifted away, and he did not go to the crowded market, but went straight to the White Horse Temple in the northern suburbs side by side.

In the evening, the sun sets. In the White Horse Temple on the outskirts of the city, the monks are setting up a cauldron and pouring rice into the pot to add water. In a bright head, the scarf wrapped in the black hair of the lifted man was conspicuous. Qi Xiang rolled up his sleeves, tucked his robe into his belt, and was chopping wood. The ragged victims waited for the soup soup in an orderly manner under the auspices of the abbot, Master Tomohiro.

More than a month later, on the day of the release of the list, the two officials brushed the paste on the notice board outside the Xuande Gate, and then the bright yellow list was unfolded. The whole crowd was boiling, some chanting excitedly, some secretly hurting themselves, some unwilling to look at the list over and over again, and some turned away sadly. The high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen who had long been lurking in the crowd quietly observed the content and demeanor of the people around them.

"Son, you've won the first place!" Li Wending shouted loudly, his excitement indescribable.

"Shitai, what about you?" Qi Xiang is looking for Li Wending's name on the huge list. When I saw the last place, I didn't see Li Wending's name. He patted Li Wending's shoulder and said, "Three years later, let's come again!" ”

Li Wending nodded and said, "Three years later, I still have a chance!" Today is a happy day anyway, you are the person with the title of the gold list, you have to treat yourself! ”

Qi Xiang was not discouraged when he saw him, and said, "That's nature!" ”

Just as the two of them were hiding from the dense crowd, suddenly more than a dozen brightly dressed and uniform family members surrounded them, and a middle-aged man walked out of them and said, "Childe, I see that you are the pillar of the country!" The old man has a daughter......"

Qi Xiang bowed and said, "I have a marriage contract, I'm sorry." ”

"Huh...... Childe, let's just make a friend. The middle-aged man said, and then the family members rushed up, squeezed Li Wending away, and stuffed it into the carriage with Qi Xiang.

"Shi Tai, save me!" Qi wants to ask for help.

Li Wending got up and wanted to chase the carriage, but he couldn't catch up at all.

"Eh, this son-in-law is so powerful......"

The joy in the hearts of almost all those who make the list will be seen through by those old fathers who are in a hurry to marry their daughters, and they will be surrounded without exception. But anyone who is younger or good-looking is the object of everyone's pursuit.

Song Chu looked at all this in a daze, like a dream. That cheat sheet from nowhere cut off his hard work for ten years. If it weren't for Wang Youxiang's help in interceding, Zhao Yan would never have promised that he could be released on bail pending trial. After several interrogations, a conclusion was reached. Zhao Yan can't prove that this piece of paper is Song Chu's entrainment, but Song Chu can't prove his innocence. So, he invalidated his results in this scientific examination, and announced that he had a sudden illness and could not complete the exam, so he was sent home for medical treatment. He did not dare to go home to face his mother, nor to face the ice blue, and walked aimlessly down the street until the crowd of robbers pushed him to the wall and he fell to the ground.

At this moment, a richly dressed boy stood in front of him. Song Chu looked up and saw that it was Wu Yue. Wu Yue helped Song Chu up and said with relief: "Zichu, I'll take you to a good place, and you forget all the sad things!"

Whenever the imperial court publishes the list, it is the day of the triennial selection of the Oiran by the Yihong Academy. The central platform has been decorated with flowers and colorful silks, and two plain white tulle screens are erected in front of the stage.

Amid the music and singing, a plump middle-aged woman walked slowly. She said aloud: "The two girls who are competing for the top prize of the Oiran today are Miss Bailu, the Plum Blossom Gentleman, and Miss Silver Frost, the Apricot Blossom Fairy. After they have finished their talents, if the guests feel that the Plum Blossom Gentleman is superior, please add a red flower to the left screen. If you think the Apricot Blossom Fairy is superior, draw a pink flower on the screen on the right. Whoever has more flowers is the champion of today's flowers. Please make an appearance with the apricot blossom fairy. ”

The woman said, the lights under the stage were slightly dimmed, and a woman in pink clothes waved a soft pink veil, hanging on the ribbon and falling from the sky. She was as light as a swallow and landed on a large drum, and every step of the dance would make a drum sound. The sometimes warm and sometimes crisp drums complement her dance steps, which makes people can't stand the admiration. Before the dance was over, several sons had already added pink flowers to the plain white screen.

After the dance, another woman dressed in white embroidered flowers came to the stage, holding a folding fan, and after her appearance with an affectionate eyebrow, the gongs and drums of the musicians sounded......

Bai Lu spotted Song Chu in the crowd at a glance, her copper-bell-like eyes intersected with Song Chu's fascinated eyes in the audience.
