Chapter Seventy-Four: Listing (I)
When they went downstairs, the two girls were still trembling, and they would never want Miss to live in this building with them, Lan Ji came back to her senses at this time and asked, "This matter is solved like this?" ”
"Solved, you can chant this sutra more in the future, and you can also get the protection of your mother." Fang Xin said, giving her the scripture just now, Lan Ji carefully accepted it, this incident just now gave her a great shock.
Although the ghosts and gods say that it is not rare in this world, there are still very few people who have seen it with their own eyes.
Fang Xin said with a smile: "This house is really good, in fact, two thousand taels of silver will be sold, now it is cheaper for my family, you bring back your dowry, and in the future, this land will be all yours." ”
"How good this is, it should be handled by the husband." Lan Ji couldn't help but gasp, all the things in the Lu Mansion were five thousand taels, half of them were Lan Ji herself, and half of them were for Fang Xin's sake, it was unprecedented for a flat wife to have so much wealth, even if it was a big family, it would not be so divided.
"Your husband won't feel distressed about this bit of silver, take it!" Fang Xin was not from this world after all, so he said: "Moreover, if you win the lift, the usual gift silver will also have this amount." ”
Lifting people is different from showing talents, lifting people can directly supplement the officials in the ministry, and the thirty acres of land granted by the government are just enough, the key is that after officially becoming an official, not only the county gentry, but also the county order will congratulate.
On the earth, a certain Fan Jinzhong said that Fan Jin was in the middle of the move, and he had been a magistrate of the county Zhang Squire who came, congratulated him fifty taels, and sent three into three houses on Dongmen Street. And the nearby gentry also have their own congratulatory silver, and there are also broken households to join. to two or three months. Fan entered the house, the field was there, the servants and maids were there, the money and rice were all there, and the house was also owned.
In fact, this is really interesting, it is true, people of the same identity will give a congratulatory gift as usual. Although there are big and small, light and heavy, there are a lot of them. This is not only to pull the relationship, but also to allow the new people to adapt quickly, some assets are decent, don't lose the face of the people.
Lan Ji knew this, so she smiled: "Is the husband so confident?" ”
"This is natural, is Lu Hou's vision still wrong?" Fang Xin said with a smile, so he ordered: "There are still three days left in the opening of the list, so let people clean up the yard, so that people can go in." ”
Orchid was completely composed. Seeing the appearance of the two girls, I couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "Why don't you go and wipe your face and do things, don't lose face." ”
Although these two girls went to Fang Xin's bed, they were just maids. In the future, she will be just a concubine, and Fang Xin only knew the true meaning of a concubine when she arrived in this world - she must ask her wife and wife for peace every day, and she has no right to dispose of her family at all, it is normal to be beaten and scolded, and it is good if she is favored. It doesn't matter if you are not favored, you are beaten to death by your wife. Or it's normal to give it to someone else to play.
Su Dongpo often gave his concubines to others, and then exchanged them to play. This is something that history proves.
So a concubine is a kind of goods, not even a person.
From this, I know that this flat wife means to Lan Jidi, without this, no matter how good her martial arts are, no matter how good she is at learning, she is still a commodity, and she dare not fight back when she is beaten and scolded, unless she wants to turn back on this family, and is hunted down by the government, and scolded by tens of thousands of public opinion.
Not to mention that these two girls were ordered to invite people, they were as busy as bees, and in the tribute courtyard, the examiner was nervously selecting the papers one by one.
Look at the transcribed volume first, according to the level of the article to select, this selection is not a one-handed cover, is three copies of the same volume, by three groups of examiners to select, the province's place of this examination is fifty people, so one list of ten people, two lists of fifteen, three lists of twenty-five.
Of course, when everyone selects the papers, at least half of them are the same, and generally one-third to one-half of them are different, and then they are collected, and there are about 100 volumes.
These 100 volumes, and collectively watched them, first rated the first list, the second list, the third list, and the supplementary volume.
In this comment, in fact, Fang Xin's volume has been discovered: "This volume is error-free, eloquent, and very clear, and can be selected for a list!" ”
The examiner took this exam paper and evaluated, of course, the good paper, not only this one, but also several other copies were among them, and after discussion, it was tentatively ranked sixth.
When everything is sorted out and the ranking has been decided, not only the examiners are present, but even the local academic and political officials have been present to open and seal them.
This is mainly to check the handwriting and whether there are any mistakes.
Generally speaking, if it is a handwriting problem, it will not lead to too much difference in ranking, but once there is a mistake, it will be over, even if the writing is good, it will only be eliminated.
The first place is opened, check each other, the handwriting is neat, there is no mistake, so it is still on the home page, but the second place, read it, this word is mellow and divine, better than the former, but unfortunately there is a typo.
"It's a pity that this person has a typo, and he only settled in the two lists." This is also the rule of the imperial court, if there is a typo, within three words, it will be moved to the next list, and outside the three words, it will not be admitted.
When it came to the third place, the words were not bad, and there were no typos, but they were wrong, and there was nothing to say about this, so they fell off the list, and the examiners present were also very sorry.
"It seems that this person's fate is not good, wait for next time!" The chief examiner Zhao Yangbin said, making up his mind.
Eliminated two at once, and when it was opened to the fourth and fifth place, there were not many mistakes, and when it was opened to the sixth place, the scroll was opened, and suddenly, the chief examiner Zhao Yangbin praised: "Good words, really good words!" ”
Seeing Zhao Yangbin praise like this, all the examiners were very surprised, and they also took a look, but after a look, they had nothing to say.
"The handwriting is neat and indulgent, and the temperament is seen in the turn, it is really a good word, I see the whole field, this calligraphy can be the first! This volume can be the first place. Zhao Yangbin said.
After reading it, there were no typos and misprints in the check, and the examiners had nothing to say, and set Fang Xin's paper as third.
In the future, the rankings will naturally be carried out according to this, and there are seven people with typos, and three people are wrong, so they either fall down, or fall directly off the list, and the later rankings will naturally fill the vacancy.
Fifty people are full, and check the age of the candidates, although it is a little cruel, but the candidates over forty, if the ranking is good, they will fall down a few places, and they are considered to have won the lift, if the ranking is in the three lists, they will fall directly off the list, and there is no chance in the back, so they naturally filled it in, and in the last fifty, there are three volumes of the same, and there is no decision for a while, and the examiner Zhao Yangbin does not look closely, he picks up a volume casually, and says: "Just him!" ”
This name turned out to be Ning Boqiu.
Then he saluted Xuezheng: "My lord, what do you think?" ”
Xuezheng has not spoken, he is here to supervise, not to decide, seeing that this procedure is normal, he said with a smile: "Lord Zhao has done very well, then copy the yellow list!" ”
This empire is also yellow as precious, and yellow cannot be used in leisure, especially bright yellow, but this list is an exception, the so-called gold list is the list of yellow paper.
At the moment, there was good calligraphy among the examiners, so they sharpened the ink, and then in the roll call of a colleague, one name after another was written, and the examiner Zhao Yangbin and Xuezheng listened to it. After writing ten lists in one list, and writing two lists and three lists, all of them were written, and the checks were correct, the examiner presented: "Please also ask the two adults to use the seal." ”
The chief examiner, Zhao Yangbin, looked at the three lists carefully, and did not speak for a long time, and the others did not urge.
Before the print, this ranking can be adjusted, and if it is printed, it will be a foregone conclusion.
After a while, Zhao Yangbin made up his mind and solemnly took out a seal, which was temporarily sent to the ground when the imperial court presided over the exam, and it must be handed in after the exam.
And Xuezheng also used the big seal and put on the ink, but he didn't go up first, but said to everyone with a wry smile: "If this seal is on, it will be fate." ”
The people present all passed through this level, and they all smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, one province, three thousand talents, how much hope there is, but only fifty can be taken. ”
"I'm waiting to preside over the exam, it's impossible not to bend, but I'm still worthy of my conscience!" Zhao Yangbin said.
When Xuezheng heard this, he didn't hesitate, and printed the big seal heavily.
As soon as the two seals were sealed, the fate was decided, and the yamen immediately gave the order to go down, open the gate, and release the salute.
Hearing the salute, the crowd that had been waiting nearby immediately swarmed up, but some soldiers stopped them, and they couldn't get close to the wall of the tribute courtyard, so they just waited for the officials to come out with paper and stick it on it.
At this time, everyone looked desperately until the soldiers were driven back step by step, and the soldiers desperately persevered, waiting for the officials to come out, put them on, and go in again, and then let go of the control.
Suddenly, there was a "boom", and the crowd rushed to the front of the list.
