The trouble given by the emperor is like an obstacle set up by the boss, which is not called trouble, but a test. Gu Yao believed that Zheng Zhizhi had done it, and continued to chat with the little second brother: "There are a lot of people here? So how do they prove that they are from the Li family? is to be able to prove their identity, and they have come one after another, are they all amazing people? ”

The little second brother quietly looked at Zheng Zhi with his spare eyes, and he regretted accepting the tip that Gu Yao had just given.

That's it, who called the family to have a son recently, he can only endure it again and again, and if he can't bear it, he must endure it, who calls him poor. The little second brother just didn't see Zheng Zhi's black face, and replied to Gu Yao's question: "So that the guest officer knows, how can there be so many arrogant people?" Everyone knows that the Li family's branch is not very promising, as long as it is stronger than the branch, isn't it good? ”

Gu Yao asked again: "Then Mrs. Li, didn't she stand up and say a word?" ”

Li Jinglong hung up, and his wife was still alive.

Xiao Er said: "The old lady also pushed this matter." It was she who said that the chief of the house must be filial piety, and if the court picks someone this year, the long house will not be out. The people of Manxian County don't know why the old lady spit out the wealth on her lips. ”

"I can guess a thing or two." Gu Yao said unashamedly.

"Oh? Guest officer, please. "Xiao Er inquired diligently.

Gu Yao didn't tell him, and said: "I asked you to pay the silver, you have to listen to my analysis, do you have to give the silver too?" ”

Xiao Er was dumbfounded.

"I'll give you a tael of silver, and ask the lady to talk about it."

Gu Yao looked for prestige and saw that it was a middle-aged man at the next table. Looking at his appearance, he is slightly older than Zheng Zhi. It's just that a tael of silver, hehe, Gu Yao pushed Zheng Zhi and said, "Master, you come and tell him." ”

"Shall we miss this tael of silver?" After speaking, Zheng Zhi said to Xiao Er again, "You can go down too." ”

At this time, the couple chatted as if no one was around, and Gu Yao asked Zheng Zhi: "What are you going to do now?" ”

After Zheng Zhi drank half a cup of tea, he said, "Didn't you come along?" How to assess you to decide. As for what the old lady said, she didn't count. It's not a scholar, and those who keep filial piety can't study yet? ”

"It's not difficult for me to come out with the exam questions, but since the old lady doesn't want her children and grandchildren to enter the officialdom, why don't you let her get her wish?"

"I don't want to come to Xuyi, don't I come too?"

The person who eavesdropped finally heard something, immediately got up, and arched his hand: "In Xia Li Jiaxing, my father is the patriarch of the Li clan, dare to ask the two, is it the Li clan sent by the imperial court to take the exam?" ”

"Hmm."

Zheng Zhi said softly, not only on the second floor, but also on the first floor, and they all started to talk about it.

"It's true! Tsk, this Li family's life is really good. ”

"Humph! Where did the Li family come from? It's just that the life of the third room is good, and there is an uncle of the founding emperor, can the life be bad? ”

It has been 60 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and the Li family has been high for 60 years. Ten years ago, I thought that the status of the Li family's relatives of the third room had come to an end. As a result, this little emperor just ascended the throne and began to take care of the Li family, which is really surprising.

By the time Gu Yao and Zheng Zhi had eaten, there were already many people who came to assess the Li family.

After Gu Yao went back, he began to work hard to sort out the assessment process. First, there were three auditions for the literary examination; Take three more physical exams, running, horseback riding and archery; Archery also plays tricks, not people shoot arrows, but people shoot people. The last item is a reasoning question.

Zheng Zhi saw it and hurriedly stopped: "It's good to solve it as soon as possible, you have this set, I'm afraid it will take a month to pick it out." And archery, what if something goes wrong and is relied upon? The last reasoning, if no one makes it and no one wins, the male supplement has to compete again? ”

Gu Yao sneered: "I have the final say, you have the final say?" ”

"It's not a question of who has the final say, but it's really inappropriate." Zheng Zhi weakly objected.

Gu Yao sneered and said, "It's a shame that you still claim to be a roundworm in Your Majesty's stomach, Your Majesty has made things bigger, don't you cooperate, are you a qualified courtier?" And who's to say that the person who made it all is the one you choose? We have to do it, so why not do it for fun? I'm going to have fun with it, um, make a little money. ”

"Why do you want to make money?"

"If you don't make money, will you have to work in vain? You have also seen it today, there are many people in Xuyi. There are not enough people in Xuyi, and it is not far from the canal. We're going to do a few days of publicity, and when we compete, we're going to sell some tickets or something. When he returns, he will be pleased to give him the money he has received to fill the treasury. ”

After Gu Yao's analysis, Zheng Zhi suddenly lost any discomfort. The daughter-in-law said that it was too reasonable, and she did it.

The next day, Patriarch Li, accompanied by Li Jiaxing, who met there yesterday, came to the inn where Zheng Zhi stayed. Zheng Zhi politely threw the assessment plan that Gu Yao had been writing for several hours to the patriarch, and said, "Let the children of the Li family prepare according to the above." ”

Patriarch Li took the thing, and after a glance at it, he said apologetically: "The old man just heard that the dog said something, and it can't prove that the adult is the person sent by the imperial court." I don't know if you have something to prove your identity? ”

Zheng Zhi paused and said, "Then ask the old lady of the third room to send someone who can recognize me." ”

"Dare to ask your surname."

"Zheng San."

"The third master of the Marquis of Wu'an?"

After Zheng Zhi bowed his head, Patriarch Li bowed and bowed, and left with his son extremely depressed. Outside said that the people of the Li family had a good life, but he felt that his cousin, Zheng Zhi, the illegitimate son, was the one with the best life. The identity of the traitorous son was biased towards the Marquis of Wu'an, who held the military power, and he also got the personal eyes of Emperor Yongle, and he was directly crowned uncle!

Ay.

The prince of the Li family, that was what his third uncle bought with his life. As a result, hey......

Li Jinglong's original wife heard that Zheng Zhi had arrived, so she didn't bother to deal with it at all. In the end, he couldn't stand the two of the patriarchs, so he had to send a guard to recognize people. This delay is three days, and Gu Yao has been promoting it well.

Three days later, the patriarch who confirmed Zheng Zhi's identity, according to Zheng Zhi's request, summoned men between the ages of fifteen and forty of the Heclan, a total of seventy-eight people. Immediately, I received a letter from Zheng Zhi.

All children born to the aunt and grandmother who married Li Shanchang in the third room and are willing to change their surname Li are also eligible to participate in the competition.

This lane was another seven days, and it was delayed until February 22 before the official start of the competition. For a total of ten days, Zheng Zhi's men had already found a valley, and in the center of the valley was the examination room, and a circle of high and low earth circles were carved out on all sides. When Patriarch Li saw such an examination room, he asked Zheng Zhi: "Uncle, what is this going to do?" ”

"Make money for Your Majesty." Zheng Zhi has been told the truth.

Although he didn't know how Zheng Zhi was going to operate, Patriarch Li was still shocked in his heart, and his right eyelid kept jumping. Gu Yao, who was on the side, immediately comforted the old man: "Don't worry, the patriarch is the one who loses the election, and I will try my best to give everyone a progressive suggestion." As long as everyone listens to me, Xuyi Li will not become the laughing stock of others. ”

The matter has come to this, and Patriarch Li has nothing else to say. However, when the twenty-second day came, Patriarch Li looked at the whining crowd and almost fainted.

It's messed up, it's messed up, it's completely messed up.
