Chapter 424: Out of the Priesthood
Meng Zhongting is the last to enter the main list, even if the impostor exam is eliminated later, his ranking is relatively low, even Wei Ming, Xie Yuan, the main examiner Cen Pu can not be completely assured, or after he is tested with the test questions, he can be in the spring, Meng Zhongting will enter Beijing next year, and he must be a formality.
However, Meng Yuecheng disagreed very much, "With those few drops of ink in his abdomen, when he comes to the exam, his name will fall to Sun Shan, I am afraid that if I come back from the exam, I will lose the face of the Meng family in vain!" In my opinion, if you study at home for another three or four years, you may be able to try. ”
He was not even allowed to take the test, and he was afraid that Meng Zhongting would cause trouble for him again.
Meng Zhongting was a little disappointed in his heart, but he didn't want to take the same Jinshi exam.
Washing Mrs. Ru's feet and giving her the same Jinshi background is really not good-looking.
Meng Yuecheng said this, and when she saw that the second old lady didn't say anything, she secretly snorted coldly.
Xiao Liu was really raised by the Yue family with the temperament of a Yue family! Yue Qiliu has served as a local political envoy for many years, and he has not been transferred to the capital until now, and he has no hope of joining the cabinet or anything! It's not because Yue Qiliu doesn't have this ability, it's that he's isolated!
If it weren't for the in-laws of the Meng family, I am afraid that Yue Qiliu might not be able to sit firmly as the political envoy of Jiangxi, and maybe one day, he will be degraded and exiled because of his righteous speech!
Meng Yuecheng didn't like Yue Qiliu's self-esteemed behavior, and treated this nephew who made a serious mistake and made the situation irreparable, so he especially didn't like it.
He punished Meng Zhongting, but in fact, he was beating the Yue family, don't instill their Yue family's set to the children of the Meng family, Meng Zhongting is the Meng family, not surnamed Yue!
Meng Yuecheng beat Yue and Meng Zhongting at the same time, and went to Taizhou to scold his own brother Meng Yuehe, Meng Yuehe is far away in Taizhou, and he is used to spoiling the mother and son, and I don't know if the reprimand is useless!
Meng Yuecheng pondered in his heart, how to make Meng Zhongting clear about the importance of Meng's lintel, but the second old lady opened his mouth, "Third." ”
He suddenly called his son Meng San, the old man Meng Yueqiu.
Meng Yueqiu should be, the second old lady only said one sentence in a low voice, "Next year's spring, you can try it down." ”
As soon as these words came out, the courtyard suddenly fell silent.
Of the four masters of the Meng family, only the third master, Meng Yueqiu, is still a person, not that he can't pass the Jinshi exam, but he has never been on the field.
Regarding the level of Meng San's master, Meng Zhongting heard a little, saying that his third uncle's articles were very beautiful, and he was good at poetry, which was recognized by the comments of Confucianism. It's just that for more than ten years since he was promoted from the third uncle, he has been doing some chores at home, and occasionally has a small gathering with literati, and that's it.
Meng Zhongting once asked the Yue family why the third uncle didn't go down to try his skills, but the Yue family didn't say anything to him at that time, but just smiled and said, "What if you get in?" ”
"If you get admitted, won't the Meng family have four jinshi? What glory does that have to be?! "At that time, Meng Zhongting was not more than ten years old.
Yue touched his head, "Such a big glory, even you know it at a young age, can that be considered a good thing?" ”
He didn't understand it at the time, but today he suddenly remembered his mother's words.
He carefully looked at the faces of the three elders, and the second old lady was still cold, as if he was talking about such a trivial matter as pouring tea from the palm lamp, but his mouth was slightly pursed, and he was indescribably firm; The third uncle didn't seem to react for a while, neither ecstatic nor unwilling, and seemed to have listened to an order, but it was bigger than pouring tea with a lamp, and it was about a long trip; And the eldest uncle's face, indescribably strange, I don't know whether he is happy or sad, and they are deadlocked.
Meng Zhongting took in the faces of the three of them, and secretly wondered what the situation was, the second old lady waved his hand, saying that he was going to rest, let them disperse, and before leaving, he ordered Meng Zhongting to say, "Travel thousands of miles, read thousands of books." ”
Meng Zhongting didn't understand this for a while, and after thinking about it again, the second old lady was lifting the ban for him, and he didn't let the eldest uncle punish him for kneeling in the ancestral hall again!
Meng Zhongting hurriedly saluted and left.
How happy he was, Meng Yuecheng didn't have time to deal with him, but together with the third Meng Yueqiu, he sent the second old lady back to the room, and when he went out here, he said, "After so many years, the second uncle finally promised you to end!" The third child, it's not easy! ”
Meng Yueqiu smiled at him very appropriately, "It's not easy to be a younger brother, but it's really hard for the eldest brother to be an official in the court all these years." ”
Meng Yuecheng looked at his expression carefully, "How can you say that?" From a small point of view, I am for the lintel of the Meng family, and in the big middle, I am also for the sake of the imperial court. He said and patted Meng Yueqiu's arm, "Learning to become a martial artist and selling it to the emperor's family, isn't it what we scholars have to do by studying hard?" ”
After he finished speaking, Meng Yueqiu didn't say anything, he nodded to Meng Yuecheng, "The eldest brother is right, the younger brother still has some general affairs to deal with, so let's go first." ”
He didn't want to say more, so he walked straight away, Meng Yuecheng stood in the courtyard and watched Meng Yueqiu walk away, then looked back at the door of the second old lady's room, pursed his lips, and walked back to his courtyard quickly.
Meng Yuecheng's wife, the eldest lady Chu also followed Meng Yuecheng back to her hometown in Qingzhou, she knew that her husband was very unhappy, and who wouldn't be annoyed when she suffered such a thing? The curtain was opened now, and at a glance, seeing Meng Yuecheng's brows furrowed into Sichuan characters, Chu hurriedly stepped forward, "Master, is something wrong?" ”
As soon as Meng Yuecheng heard this, he felt harsh, "If something happens, don't talk about such frustration." ”
Chu Shi hurriedly shut up, waited for him to enter the house to change his clothes, and let the maid come to tea, Meng Yuecheng opened his mouth, "The second uncle let the third master take the examination!" ”
"Yikes!" Chu Shi was startled, and then became happy again, "After so many years, the second uncle finally nodded his head!" Among the brothers, the third child has an idea to do things, and you have been thinking about him for so many years, which is good! ”
Chu Shiwu was happy, but Meng Yuecheng snorted, "I am now being consecrated with a sentence, pressing the second uncle at home, but the third is going to be a leader, do you think it's a good thing?" ”
The Chu family is not from a small family, on the contrary, the Chu family was born in the Huguang clan, she was reminded by Meng Yuecheng and calmed down, "What does the master mean, the second uncle is not worried about you, and wants the third uncle to contain you?" The Meng family is in this situation now, the brothers are united and it's too late, how can they fight among themselves?! ”
These words can be regarded as speaking to Meng Yuecheng's heart, and he sighed heavily, "So I said, the second uncle just can't see the situation in front of him clearly!" Now Chaoli is no longer what he was back then, and if he doesn't make friends with people, he can only be like Yue Qiliu, staying in Jiangxi as a political envoy for more than ten years! ”
The situation is such a situation, Chu knows it, she asked, "What about the master?" Can you still stop the old three? ”
Meng Yuecheng shook his head, the second room has its own power, and now he is trapped at home and can't do anything.
Meng Yuecheng picked up the teacup and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
