Luo Wei, the governor of Guangxi, seemed to have evaporated from the ground in Guangxi Province.

Guangzhou City, in the Governor's Mansion of Liangguang.

Gao Ting, one of the civil giants of the Daning Empire and the governor of Liangguang, who was destined to enter the cabinet in the future, looked at the person kneeling in front of him.

Luo Wei, after learning that his home had been raided, he was in a daze for half an hour, and then immediately decided to flee immediately.

He did not flee to the territory of the Li Tusi as others expected, but fled to the Guangzhou Mansion.

In general, both the governor and the governor were incompatible. And Luo Wei and Gao Ting seem to be the same on the surface, and the two basically have no contact.

Moreover, Gao Ting, the governor of Guangzhou, focused on maritime trade, the southeast seas, and the military defense of Guangdong and Hainan.

Luo Wei also expressed his dissatisfaction with Gao Ting in public many times, feeling that he interfered too much in the political affairs of Guangxi Province.

But no one thought that this was just two people acting.

Luo Wei and Gao Ting have very complicated dealings, especially the exchange of interests.

About one-third of Guangxi's annual trade of millions of taels is controlled by the governor of Guangxi and Guangzhou.

This Gao Ting was not only the governor of Liangguang, but also the earl of the Daning Empire.

There are very few titles among civil officials, because the Daning Empire is either hereditary from the ancestors or knighted by military merits.

And this Gao Ting, who happened to be born in a noble family, gave up the position of marquis to his younger brother and embarked on a career through the imperial examination.

Three years ago, he made military achievements in the position of governor of Xuanda, and after being a noble, he was canonized as an imperial earl.

This person also has another identity, that is, the son-in-law of the Fang clan, the leader of the heavenly ministers.

He is only fifty-five years old this year, and if nothing else, within a few years he will become one of the giants of the Daning Empire.

"Your Excellency the Governor, save me. Luo Wei's image was disgraceful, without the slightest chicness before, and he knelt straight in front of Gao Ting.

"You......" Gao Ting pointed at Luo Wei, hating that iron could not become steel: "How many times have I told you, don't hide the silver in the silver at home." How many times have you promised, but you still put millions of silver in the secret room of your home, which is stupid. ”

Luo Wei kowtowed desperately and said, "Your Excellency the Governor, only by seeing and touching these pieces of silver every night can I get peace." ”

"Does anyone know that you came to the Liangguang Governor's Palace?" asked Gao Ting.

"Nope. Luo Wei said: "Xia Guan came dressed up alone, and he didn't even tell his concubine and son." ”

"Your hundreds of taels of silver were confiscated in public, and your career can't be saved. Gao Ting said: "What do you want?"

Luo Wei said: "I know that our department has a piece of land overseas, which is the size of two Guangzhous, enslaving millions of natives. Moreover, there were armies one after another, and the martial arts sect was stationed in the past, but there was a great shortage of civil officials, and I wanted to go there as a civil affairs officer, and still serve as my governor. ”

The leader of the Wenchen of the Daning Empire, the thousand-year-old wealthy Fang family, is really remarkable, not only carrying out maritime trade, but also opening up secret bases in the open sea.

Gao Ting's eyes were cold and said, "I know too much, be careful that you won't live long." ”

This matter is indeed a top secret in the Daning Empire, but Luo Wei has participated in a lot of secret maritime trade, so this fact is deduced.

Luo Wei said: "Xiaguan is already desperate, there is only one way to sell himself to join the Fang family, no matter how much he knows, he is just a domestic slave of the Fang family." ”

Gao Ting said: "We don't have the official position of governor in our overseas territories, at most only the prefect. ”

Luo Wei's face twitched: "Prefect...... Okay, too. ”

Although it is painful to be demoted from governor to prefect, it is much better than being imprisoned, and much better than being exiled for 3,000 miles.

Gao Ting said: "Overseas territory, that is the private property of the sovereign, if you fill your private pocket, you will be killed." The Lord is not a soft commodity like Emperor Tianyun. ”

"Yes. Luo Wei kowtowed and said: "As long as the silver given by the master is enough for me to live a prosperous and rich life, the slave will definitely do his best and die." ”

Gao Ting looked at Luo Wei for a while and said, "Let me ask you, when you went to our overseas territory in Java, do you know what the first priority is?"

Luo Wei kowtowed and said: "You know, completely blockade and monopolize the maritime trade of the Daning Empire, so that the Daning Empire cannot completely open the world." Take advantage of the abundance of the Daning Empire to grow our independent kingdom overseas. ”

If Du Bian knew about it, he would definitely exclaim, isn't this the East India Company model of the British Empire?

Isn't it said that the civil officials, scholars, and doctors in ancient China were all short-sighted? Why is the vision and vision of the interest group headed by the Fang clan so awesome?

He, the traverser, didn't do this, but the natives of the Daning Empire actually did it.

Gao Ting said: "I will send someone to send you to sea first, and as for your official position, I will report to the Lord before I can decide." You get ready, and you leave the sea right away. ”

Luo Wei said: "Xiaguan will wait for two more days, just two days." ”

Gao Ting said: "What's the matter?"

Luo Wei said: "Wait for a news, two days will be almost the same, I will not be willing to die if I don't get this news." I'm very safe at the Doge's Palace anyway, and no one knows I'm here. ”

......

Guangxi Eunuch College.

Everyone didn't know Du Bian's real arithmetic level, and even in the past few years of studying at the Eunuch Academy, Du Bian's arithmetic score was almost zero every time.

Only Ning Zongwu knew how terrible Du Bian's arithmetic was.

Du Bian, who comes from the modern earth, is also a master's degree graduate from a prestigious university. The level of mathematics is more than 100 years ahead of the world. And it's completely dominant-level, the Great Demon King-level.

"Oh my God!"

"It's too hard. ”

"I haven't studied these topics at all, so I don't know how to do it?"

"Is this an arithmetic test? I know every word on these questions, but I can't understand them at all. ”

There were bursts of wailing in the examination room, and the invigilators of the examination sneered and smirked in their hearts, didn't they want to change the exam questions? Now it is for you.

In the face of the request of the Guangxi Eunuch Academy to temporarily change the examination papers, the five invigilators had no choice but to comply with it for the sake of their own reputation, but they were angry in their hearts, so it was very difficult to come up with the questions, that is, to torture these candidates who did not know the height of the sky.

Not to mention others, even Yan Shi, an honor student, had knotted his eyebrows when he saw these topics.

It's really hard, it's too hard.

The only one with the same face as usual is probably only Tang Yan.

To a certain extent, Tang Yan is really a genius, before he became a eunuch, he didn't have much time to learn arithmetic, that is, he only studied arithmetic vigorously in the past two or three years.

His talent was too high, and in the end, his arithmetic tutor directly said that he had nothing left to teach Tang Yan.

There are ten questions in this arithmetic exam paper, and the exam time is three and a half hours, which is much longer than the two and a half hours of college entrance examination mathematics on the earth.

Tang Yan is very awesome, and he can rely on mental arithmetic for a considerable part of the calculations.

But if it involves more complex calculations, he also uses chips.

The first six questions are already very difficult for other candidates, but they are very easy for Tang Yan.

The seventh question was already relatively difficult, and it took Tang Yan half an hour to solve it.

The eighth question was still very difficult, but Tang Yan still took half an hour to solve it.

The ninth question, even for Tang Yan, was extremely difficult, he thought about it for an hour, and then suddenly he had an idea, and Tang Yan also solved the ninth question.

As for the tenth question, Tang Yan, a genius, had no clue at all.

Even, he felt that this problem should be unsolvable, and the person who made this problem knew that it was unsolvable.

This is definitely the revenge of several ceremonial eunuchs and eunuchs, and they have put an unsolvable problem.

Tang Yan guessed half right, in the end, this arithmetic problem was indeed seen by the three celebrant eunuchs from a secret book, and they themselves would not be able to solve it, the reason why this question came out was completely to torture these students of Guangxi Eunuch Academy, so that they knew their ignorance completely.

So to a certain extent, the last question in this arithmetic exam paper is indeed an unsolvable question.

If Tang Yan is still like this, then Yan Shi will be even more difficult.

Only the first four questions he found easy, and the fifth and sixth questions, Yan Shi was already very struggling.

And when it came to the seventh question, Yan Shi was basically completely stumped, pondering and racking his brains.

Of course, during the exam, Yan Shi also paid attention to Du Bian all the time.

A quarter of an hour after the exam started, when Yan Shi finished the first question, he looked towards Du Bian.

As a result, he found Du Bian sitting there in a daze, even his eyes closed, as if he was sleeping.

Then, every quarter of an hour, he looked towards Du Chang.

No matter what time it was, Du Yan slept there with his eyes closed.

And the exam papers on the desktop are always white flowers, and almost not a word is written. (In the exam here, the questions are on a separate page, and the answers are written on a separate blank rice paper, because there are no blanks and no multiple-choice questions.) ）

Suddenly, Yan Shi was completely relieved.

Today's arithmetic exam is so difficult, and sure enough, Du Chang has no way to write at all, and he can't even solve the first question.

But this is also normal, he has been zero eggs in every arithmetic test before.

This also completely proves that it is completely cheating to have such a strong score in the Chinese Studies Exam.

Although the score has not yet come out, Yan Shi already knows in his heart that he should be around 65 points, and Du Bian is still zero, because he has not even answered a single question.

After the scores came out, Du Bian had to kneel there and admit that he had cheated.

At that time, don't blame him Yan Shixin for being ruthless, not to mention beating him to death with ten slaps, but also knocking out most of his teeth, and completely crippling his brain.

......

Yan Shi wronged Du Bian by half.

He was indeed sleeping, to be precise, he was in a meditative dream state, reviewing riding, archery, riding archery, and alchemy, preparing for the next exam.

The reason why Yan Shi was sleeping every time he looked at him.

That's because the arithmetic test was so easy for him that it didn't take him a quarter of an hour to answer all the questions, and then covered the test paper on the table, which looked like a blank paper.

As for the last question, it was unsolvable for everyone present, including the three celebrant eunuchs who came up with the question.

But for Du Bian, it is just a simple system of ternary equations.

Don't talk about thinking, don't talk about racking your brains, he already has the answer to the question before he finishes reading it.

Complete the 10 questions in a quarter of an hour, and you don't even need to check it, you know that it is a 100% perfect score.

......

The sun goes down and the bells strike again.

In the second session of the Eunuch Academy, the arithmetic exam was completely over.

Each candidate writes their name on their answer sheet, puts it in a paper envelope, and then submits it.

After the invigilator received the answer sheet, he asked dozens of young eunuchs to use needles and threads to sew up the part with the name written on the upper corner of the answer sheet, so that the paper envelope completely blocked the candidate's name.

In the evening, the five supervising eunuchs again reviewed and corrected the arithmetic and arithmetic examination papers.

Correcting the arithmetic test papers is much more refreshing, and there is no need to be like Chinese studies, those articles will make them scorched on the outside and tender on the inside, but they still have to give a decent score.

The arithmetic test paper, if it is wrong, it is wrong, and it is as refreshing as a knife falling.

Wrong, wrong, wrong!

Seeing these candidates' scores getting lower and lower one by one, I was really happy.

Now, most of the arithmetic exam papers have been corrected.

The highest score was 93 points, with the second place having only 73 points and the third place having only 65 points.

In short, the vast majority of people's results are miserable.

And everyone is looking forward to a person's score, and that is Du Chang.

"Don't look forward to it. An overseer eunuch said: "During the exam, I took a special look, and he was sleeping all the time, and the exam paper was blank. ”

Everyone was stunned, and at this time, the deputy mountain chief Lang Ting said: "It's not surprising that he scored zero in every arithmetic exam before. ”

In today's exam, Lang Ting and Wang Hong paid special attention to Du Bian, and found that he had been sleeping all the time, and they were completely relieved.

Sure enough, it was a false alarm!

At this time, an invigilating eunuch opened an examination paper and was stunned for a moment when he saw the handwriting on it.

It's such a beautiful handwriting, but it's no longer a thin gold font, but it's a different font, but it's more elegant.

Of course, this is Du Bian's favorite Mi Fu font.

"This is Du Bian's exam paper, although he changed the font, he can still see his handwriting. The chief eunuch said.

"Oh, he actually answered? Didn't he hand in a blank paper and sleep all the time?" said another invigilator, "How many questions did he answer?"

"Ten questions, all done. The chief eunuch said.

"No way. Another proctor said, "I kept an eye on him, and he wrote for less than a quarter of an hour, and then he slept there." It's amazing to be able to answer one question in a quarter of an hour, how can you answer ten questions?"

"Scribbling is possible, and if you don't know how to solve it at all, then scribbling is the same. ”

"How many questions did he get right? The first question should be right, this question is still very easy. ”

The chief eunuch finished reading Du Bian's test questions in the fastest time, and then felt suffocated again.

This time, even he, the examiner, is going to doubt his life!

The chief examiner's throat was hoarse, and he said with difficulty: "He, he seems to have answered all ten questions correctly!"
