Chapter 121 The Universe in the Volume
The first update
When the Cai family was anxious, Xin Kun didn't know at all. She finished the first two exams very smoothly, of course, what she didn't know was that her papers were also put in the hands of the young emperor, Niu Ge Lao, and Cai Ge Lao for the first time. They were in the Shuntian Mansion Tribute Courtyard, so that they could see Xin Kun's scroll for the first time.
When Cai Ge always listened to them, he deliberately followed. He has never cared about a small blacksmith, and the young emperor knows about Xin Kun giving Guo Peng weapons, but others don't know, everyone only knows that Xin Kun is a student of Cai Guan now.
Although Cai Ge Lao is very concerned about this kind of thing for students, students are more reliable than their grandsons, of course, grandsons are more reliable. What's more, Cai Guan taught a bunch of students in the county, as long as one ran out, sacrificing one or two was nothing.
He was nodded by Cai Guan and almost asked Cai Wen to quit. But thinking about it in hindsight, if he quit for Xin Kun's sake, he would also feel that he would have no face.
Now that I heard that the Young Emperor and the old man of Niu Ge were going to come to see the scrolls, I also knew that they were for Xin Kun, and I was secretly relieved in my heart. I'm really old and confused!
"It seems that this time the head of the case will not be able to escape." Niu Ge Lao finished reading the volume and sighed.
"There is no poetry in the government test, as long as there is no poetry, it is not a problem for him to take the head of the case." The young emperor glanced at it, they read both volumes, and finally read the original manuscript for the first time, the beautiful handwriting, and then looked at the concise and powerful answer, and nodded gently.
The young emperor has watched him try six games. In addition to writing poems, Xin Kun's articles are all like this, concise and powerful, and use classics.
The young emperor is very young, but he also has his own ideas. He doesn't like flowery rhetoric, he wants to find a group of like-minded people who do practical things, and together he wants to push away these old people. And Xin Kun's article, as well as what he did, the young emperor has been reading. He really felt that Xin Kun was the person he was looking for.
Niu Ge is always from a poor background, and he also likes this kind of simple article, and at a glance, he knows that Xin Kun climbed out of the bottom. He has always cared for such a student, and he will not go against the young emperor.
Finally, the volume was passed in front of Cai Gelao, who is also a family scholar, and he has also read more than 10,000 volumes. Now look at Xin Kun's article, and subconsciously compare it with his grandson.
Xin Kun's style of writing is not what Cai Ge Lao likes, he was born in a rich nest, he has never suffered anything in his life, he likes the graceful and suave demeanor of a talented man. Cai Wen is this style of writing, and he is full of grace and atmosphere.
But when he read Xin Kun's article back and forth three times, he could only sigh softly.
"What, don't like it?" Although Niu Ge Lao doesn't like Cai Ge Lao, he can still take care of his face. Seeing Cai Ge Lao like this, he couldn't help but ask.
"yes, I really don't like this style of writing. However, this kid actually wrote such a plain idea so smoothly. Brother Nian knows that the old man doesn't like that kind of poor and obscure atmosphere, this kid, although he is not from a good background, but he has positive ideas, but he can create talents. ”
"Interesting!" The young emperor raised his eyebrows, picked it up and looked at it again, he didn't read as much as Cai Ge Lao and Niu Ge Lao, he liked this plain style, but now I heard the old man say this, watch it again. Sure enough, the old man is a human spirit, Xin Kun's plain style of writing is not poor and sour at all, he is full of peace and indifference, "So his background can't deceive people, although his background is not obvious, but he is different from the real poor children, his reading mentality is different from theirs, and the articles he writes are naturally different." ”
"He's not peaceful at all, don't you see him blushing to the Wu family, the child is still quite impulsive, and he almost fell into the way of others." Niu Ge Lao smiled, he didn't like Cai Ge Lao to talk about things with poverty and sourness, he was born in third-level extreme poverty, and he didn't feel that his article was poor and sour at all.
What impressed him deeply was that he began to use millet instead of wheat to solve the problem of this year's drought in the north. As for whether it tastes good or not, he doesn't care. He is a poor man, and he knows better than anyone else that whether it is good or not is a question for those who are well fed, and for the general public, it is a good thing to be able to eat.
So he heard that Xin Kun would take the county exam, and he took the initiative to ask to see the papers. He wondered if this pragmatic teenager was really a talent to be made.
Of course, after reading his article, the old man was moved, so in addition to being pragmatic, this young man is also good at reading. What a godsend!
Of course, for Old Man Niu, what he has the most favorable impression of Xin Kun is the evaluation of the Wu family. It was really an accident that he went to Wu's shop that day, and when he was off that day, he went out to find the shop on the street to shave his face, and by the way, he listened to the livelihood of the people in the market. Originally, he said that he would go home for dinner after shaving his face, but he had a happy chat, and he read new books in the bookstore. I casually entered a small restaurant that looked clean, and I planned to eat a bowl of noodles and go home.
All of this was very accidental, and the Wu family's restaurant was the first time he went to it, if it was something that he couldn't even think of himself, how could people think of it, so he firmly believed that what he saw was the most real Xin Kun. A young man who loves his family, but also has his own integrity. Of course, he was still impulsive, but this is exactly what is valuable, if he is thoughtful everywhere, Niu Ge Lao will not appreciate him.
Now that he said that his article was not sour, he just felt that it was Haoran righteousness. What's so bad about being above board? Cai Ge Lao wants to say that although the Xin family has no identity, is it rich? The Xin family is rich and rich and has salt merchants in the south of the Yangtze River, and the medicine merchants in the north are even more wealthy? So! A well-off family who runs a small blacksmith shop and relies on kitchen knives, is that so?
"I heard that Cai Wen also came to take the test, so find out Cai Wen's papers." The young emperor didn't want to stand in line with the two elders, could he say that he was not interested in these two elders?
Fu Yin honestly took out Cai Wen's scroll and handed it to the young emperor with both hands.
The young emperor was happy, and at first glance, it was an article written by a serious official N generation, with all kinds of flowers, the point is, there is really something to say.
Cai Wen grew up under the knees of Cai Ge, and Cai Ge is always the old man who likes to talk to his children and grandchildren about the government, and he believes that words are better than examples. Therefore, his children and grandchildren have been proficient in the calculation of the court since childhood.
So Cai Wen has his own views on current affairs. However, his opinion can only be regarded as modest, neither biased towards Cai Ge Lao, nor is it obviously biased towards the policy of the young emperor. So it seems that he has a lot of ideas, but on closer reading, he actually doesn't say anything.
