Chapter Seventy-Three: Still a Flat Wife (II)
In the past few days, regardless of Ning Boqiu's thoughts, Fang Xin was thinking about the matter of getting a lifter.
There are millions of scholars in the empire, but there are only tens of thousands of talents, and most of them are on the hurdle of talent after obtaining talent!
And to raise people, even if the whole country takes the examination every three years, the number of admission places in each province is admitted according to the number specified by the imperial court, and the less is only 30, and the more are only 50, so it is quite difficult to obtain the status of lifting people, and the whole country only takes 1,000 people in three years.
However, there is an unspoken rule that if you are at the same level, the younger you are, the easier it is to get in, the reason is very simple, the first is that young people will reach this level, have great potential, and can develop in the future, and it will be difficult to enter after middle age.
Secondly, from the beginning of the promotion, the relationship between the academic administration and the examiner and the students is very close.
Since the promotion of people can be directly conferred on officials, the promotion is equivalent to officially entering the officialdom, and the officialdom is nothing more than factions, and factions are no more than teachers and students, which official does not want enough students in his faction to join?
Therefore, the examiner will promote his own talents at the time of the examination, and at this time, those who are promoted to the rank of junior must be called "Fang Shi" or "Seat Master", which can be called a mountain.
Whether it is a house master or a seat teacher, in the feudal officialdom, this protΓ©gΓ© relationship follows the blood relationship, and sometimes it is even more important than the blood relationship, this sentence is indeed true.
It is not uncommon for sons to betray Lao Tzu, but there are very few students who betray their teachers - the crime of selling teachers for glory is even if the Son of Heaven takes care of them. I'm afraid that in the officialdom, it will be difficult to move an inch.
With this in mind, I try to be both a master and a seater. are promoting young people, which is not only easy to control, but also has great potential, and can take care of each other for decades in the future, if it is middle-aged and elderly, hehe, how much value do you think about? And even if it is out of the idea of the imperial court, you are only in your forties or fifties before you become a jinshi. How many years can you be a messenger for the imperial court? Isn't this the court raising you for nothing!
Therefore, if you are not promoted at forty and you are not a scholar at fifty, few people can surpass this law.
But. This time it's a little different, I only took the exam last year, and this year I took the Enke exam, which is equal to double the quota, and this one is easier to test.
Thinking about this, Fang Xin is not in a hurry, he is so young, even if it is a normal provincial test, some people take a fancy to their potential and accept it, let alone now?
Just spend your days at your leisure. Sometimes I play some fun games with the two little girls in bed, sometimes I eat Lan Ji's carefully prepared dishes, and of course, I don't forget to tell my mother He the news of marrying another flat wife, it's funny to think about it. A few months ago, I was still a poor person who had no one to marry, but now I am marrying a few at once, and there are a few beautiful little girls waiting for me.
This time, the chief examiner, Fang Xin also inquired. The surname is Zhao. Mingyang Bin.
This is a bachelor of Hanlin sent by the imperial court, and he is a fifth-grade official. If nothing else, he is Fang Xin's real estate master, however, since there is no exam, the candidates and the examiner cannot interact with each other, so as not to gossip, so the two of them pay attention to each other silently - Zhao Yangbin also heard that a fifteen-year-old young man who is talented and appreciated by Hou Ye, if he is classified as his own disciple, it is equivalent to having a relationship with Hou Ye, so he is naturally attentive.
Such days passed quickly, and soon it was March 1st, Fang Xin got up early in the morning, and then went to the Provincial Tribute Academy, and went to the exam, which was similar to the process of the Xiucai exam, so I didn't say much, but the room was better, and the supervision was stricter, and even the dishes in the basket sent were better - it was still not allowed to be brought in privately, for fear of bringing things.
When I got to the room, this exam was still three days old.
The first day is the examination of the scriptures and Moyi at the same time, this is the basic skills of the assessment, Fang Xin naturally wrote with a spirit, and he made a stroke, but this time, when the time came, no one came to collect it, and there was no examiner who came in to see what you wrote - this is a taboo, when lifting people to take the exam, it is to be copied and copied, and the examiner is not allowed to enter the examination room to see the sticker, for fear of reading and remembering the content to cheat.
The next day, it was to test the scriptures, which was a discussion around the meaning of the book, that is, to look at the level with the core interpretation of the scriptures, and Fang Xin made great progress in his studies at this time, and after a little concentration, the paper was written exquisitely, and even he felt that he was further than when he was showing talent in the middle of the day, and he couldn't find the slightest mistake.
On the third day, it is a policy discussion, most of which is based on the scriptures and is linked to reality, which requires very high requirements for candidates, not only to have good basic skills, good level of articles, but also to deeply understand the gist of it.
If it weren't for Fang Xin's great progress in his studies now, he could still write this, but his grasp was much less, but at this time, he also wrote an article.
After checking it, he found that there were indeed no typos and out-of-character (that is, there was no taboo, or the wrong format was written), Fang Xin rattled the bell to indicate that he had finished writing, and immediately, a person wearing an eight-rank official came in, followed by two small officials of the ninth grade, and the three of them did not make a sound, and the little official stepped forward and sealed his name in front of Fang Xin and others.
According to the law of the imperial court, when lifting people and taking the jinshi examination, the local academic administration and the chief examiner sent by the imperial court supervise each other, and the local academic administration official presides over the obfuscation and transcription, and the copied examination paper can only be sent to the chief examiner, which is to prevent the identity of the candidate from being leaked from the candidate's handwriting.
"Now that you're done, you're ready to go out." When the eight-rank official saw that the name was sealed, he said coldly: "The state can be released on March 6, and you can watch it in front of the Gongyuan." β
"Yes, my lord, the student is leaving." Fang Xin bowed respectfully, and then left.
As soon as he finished the exam, he felt that he had won this time, this feeling was similar to the sixth sense, which was naturally generated after the upgrade of Yu Ruyi, and he had already gone through several events to determine the effect.
When I returned to my shop, I saw Lan Ji and the two girls waiting anxiously at the door, but when I saw him come in, I calmed down and said, "Husband, you are tired, come and have a cup of tea first." β
Fang Xin was very happy and drank tea. He said, "Lan Ji, go out with me!" β
"Where to go?" Ranki couldn't have imagined that he was saying that now.
"Go and see your homestead, I've got in touch. I've seen a few, now let you pick one more! β
Originally, the provincial capital, the housing prices were much more expensive than those in the county, but there was also an advantage, that is, Luhou Mansion was here, close to the ground, presumably no one dared to harass Lan Ji, Lan Ji came out of Lu Mansion. You can also receive some care.
At that moment, he ordered the shopkeeper to close the door, and went out with the two girls and Lan Ji. Lan Jili was very good, she had to hire a carriage, look at the surrounding scenery in the carriage, and when she arrived at Zhongli Lane, there was a middleman who came to guide the way, and the three residences she had seen were here, and after seeing the three, Fang Xin smiled and said: "Just take the second one!" β
It is a large mansion with five rooms and an area of thousands of square meters. It's just a little too shabby, Fang Xin's face looked at the painted paint peeling off the eaves bucket, and said, "Why is this like this?" What year was this built? β
"Xianggong, this place has only been built for eleven years, and it was originally a seven-rank official's mansion. Later, he was convicted and exiled, and this place was deserted, don't look at the old, in fact, it is still strong, and if you repair it, it will immediately be a first-class house! The man hurriedly said.
Fang Xin pointed to the small building to the west again. He asked, "What does that building do?" β
Listened to this. The man was a little nervous and said, "This is the boudoir of the original young lady." It's also very elegant! β
Fang Xin laughed when he heard this, in fact, he had already felt a yin qi that existed in it, probably a little ghost or something, maybe it was still a female ghost, but others might be afraid, but Fang Xin didn't care, and he didn't say anything at the moment, watching this person walk all the way and point all the way
What wings, stables, worship halls, out,, inner courtyard, etc., although the garden inside is a little smaller, but it is also considered a sparrow although small, all the five organs are complete.
Fang Xin nodded and smiled while listening, and then sighed and said, "Since this is the case, then I will give three hundred taels of silver!" β
"Oh, Xianggong, your price is too low, this is at least two thousand taels of silver, and your price is too ruthless!" The man immediately cried out, as if he had been slashed several times.
Fang Xin didn't seem to hear it, he looked at him and shouted, this person shouted and shouted, and when he saw this look, his voice lowered.
"Don't shout, don't tell lies in front of real people, this house, except for me, few people have bought it, and it is fair for me to pay this price." Fang Xin said categorically.
This person changed color, but he still didn't follow, begged hard, and finally added another fifty taels of silver, and then he transferred the paperwork title deed, and then came back to look at the stunned three people.
"Husband, what are you?" Lan Ji was embarrassed to say that Fang Xin was more businessman than a businessman, and said, "There is something wrong with this house?" β
"It's nothing, it's just a ghost, are you going to recruit some people, clean up the house, or come with me to have a look?" Hearing that there was a ghost, Lan Ji was fine, but the two girls changed color.
Martial arts are not more ordinary, if they don't reach the fifth order, they can't deal with ghosts, they can only protect themselves, no wonder they change color, Fang Xindi's sword qi is special, and they are originally able to reach the temperament, and the fourth order has lethality.
"What are you afraid of, people are righteous and naturally ghosts and gods are not afraid." Fang Xin laughed at them, in fact, there was nothing wrong with this, but it was necessary to cultivate Haoran's spirit.
"Since the husband is going, the concubine should be his entourage." Lan Ji gritted her teeth, but said so.
Fang Xin smiled, and went upstairs, as soon as he went up, he felt that it was dark, this little ghost really became a bit of a climate, but he didn't think so, it was invisible to the naked eye, and he released holy light, this holy light was almost like a small sun, and wherever he went, the black gas was immediately purified.
went upstairs, but saw that it was different from other places, it was still not dusty, and there was a plain paper on the table, which was beautiful and upright, and even the ink had not dried, so Fang Xin took it to take a look.
The death of the sad building is the bones of another country, and the pain comes to the parents of yin and yang.
There are few poems to read, and if you want to write a book, you can't write a book.
This is obviously the product of a female ghost, Fang Xin thought about it, and said with praise: "This female ghost still remembers her parents, it's still good, you wait and take a look at this female ghost's poems." β
The two girls screamed, hugged each other in fright, couldn't help shaking, their teeth gurgling, and Lan Ji was also stunned, took a look at it with a pale face, and said, "This is the work of a female ghost?" β
"Well, I probably can't leave this building, and I'm watching my parents move!" Fang Xin didn't care, he took out a volume of the Houtu Sutra from his arms: "I can't cure ghosts, but this scripture can cure it, you wait and see." β
After speaking, the white light rose, and the three of them were stabbed by the white light, their eyes hurt, and they even faintly saw that a young lady emerged from the air.
The two girls were so frightened that they didn't even dare to look at it, they didn't dare to scream, and they hugged each other tightly.
Lan Ji barely looked at it, but saw a blurry black gas, which seemed to be a human figure.
"Your poem is okay, what's your name? Have you ever hurt someone? β
"Don't dare, the little woman's surname is Du Mingshu, although she is scared to leave, she never dares to hurt people." The figure knelt on the ground and said, in her eyes, both this scripture and this person were so terrifying.
Fang Xin nodded appreciatively and said, "Yes, how many years have you been dead?" β
"The little girl has been dead for eleven years, I wonder if her parents are still alive? If my brother grows up, the old house is still there! At this, she couldn't help but hide her face, and the transparent tears fell into the air and disappeared again.
"Eleven years, how did you cultivate this kind of mana?" Fang Xin was a little curious, this female ghost was almost a second-order Yin God cultivator now.
"Before her death, the little girl used to read the scriptures well, and she also learned some techniques of vomiting from the old scriptures, and after her death, she was detained here, but she worshiped the moon every night, and it was really effective if she didn't want to."
"It's a pity, you've been dead for too long, I'm afraid that if you enter the underworld, you will also be punished, so I will use this scripture to enshrine you as a family worship spirit girl, although you are not a god, but you no longer suffer from the ghost rules, first help my family take care of it, and in the future, it can naturally be the land, how about it?"
"Thank you Gongzi!"
Fang Xin is actually experimental in nature, and immediately said the Sutra of the Afterlife of the Earth, and then pointed to it: "In the future, the name of the Earth Niangniang will be specially named as the spirit girl of the family, and it will be done!" β
Even the canonization is said casually, but the mind is together, Hou Tu Jingli is response, suddenly a white light flew in, fell on the female ghost, the female ghost hissed, rolled on the ground, and rose in a moment, there was a woman, this woman's eyes were condensed in autumn water, wearing a gorgeous skirt, and her demeanor was dignified, a few were a beautiful official lady, she bowed down: "Thank you Niangniang, worship the great grace of the son." β
"Go, you can go out now, go to see your parents, and come by yourself."
"Yes!" Although it was daylight, the woman still rolled, turned into a wind, and disappeared.
