Chapter 210: Broad Words to Solve Doubts

With this uplink, Juppé's mood became very good, and he personally poured Fanning a glass of wine.

Zhu Pei said with a smile: "This time Pingjiang Mansion did very well in the exam, and the five tributes actually passed the exam to three people, which is unprecedented." ”

"Who else in our Pingjiang Mansion has been admitted?" Fanning asked curiously.

Zhu Pei hesitated and said, "There is another person from our Wujiang County." ”

"Could it be Liu Ran!" Fanning's eyes widened.

Zhu Pei nodded, with a sullen face, the Liu family father and son came in through the front door, and she left through the back door to find Fanning.

"His father found out last night and brought him to my house early this morning to report the good news."

"Huh! This time, the whole army of Changzhou County was wiped out, how do they explain it when they go back? ”

Su Liang slapped the table happily, Changzhou County was so arrogant when he was solving the test, and now he was finally slapped in the face.

Cheng Yuanyuan was very sensitive, and she asked puzzledly, "Why did the Liu family come to give you good news?" ”

Juppé glanced at Fanning and stopped talking.

Fan Ning didn't want to mention this matter, so he only smiled faintly, "The two families are world friends, of course they have to share the joy." ”

Cheng Yuanyuan saw Zhu Pei's uneasy gaze, and saw Fan Ning's somewhat stupid expression, she suddenly realized something, so she immediately closed her mouth and stopped asking about it.

At this time, Fanning glanced at Akihito, he had already found that Akihito wanted to speak and stopped, as if he wanted to say something? Now it's time to use Akihito to divert the topic.

"Akihito, if you have something to say, just say it, why did you become a mother-in-law?"

Akihito looked at Jupei, "I'll tell you later!" ”

Zhu Pei was already unhappy about Liu Ran's matter, and she knew that Fan Mingren wanted to avoid her.

He sneered and snorted: "Am I here, if there is anything I can't say, or I'll go downstairs first?" ”

Having already said this, Akihito had to scratch his head and say, "I went to Fuguiqiao Guanpu shop again before I came just now." ”

Cheng Ze next to him suddenly perked up, as if he had found a confidant, he hurriedly smiled and said, "Mingren also likes to gamble a few times?" ”

"I don't go often, this time it's a bet on the imperial examination, just play casually, a few days ago I went with Fan Ning and Su Liang to bet."

Fan Ning's heart moved, and he smiled: "Could it be that there is a change?" ”

Akihito nodded, "Feng Jing has become two pure now, and you have become one pure!"

Su Liang's eyes widened and said, "Last time, Feng Jing was a five-pure, and Fanning was a six-pure!" ”

"That's right, I heard that it was adjusted yesterday afternoon, and I wonder if there is any inside information."

Juppe snorted; "It should be the ranking of the provincial test that has flowed out, and A-Ning's score ranks first in the children's test, I knew it yesterday."

"The first boy in the test!" Su Liang exclaimed.

Fan Ning frowned, and asked puzzledly, "Didn't you say that the provincial test is not ranked?" ”

"There is a ranking in the internal ranking of the provincial test, but it will not be announced to the public for the time being, otherwise how can there be a three-yuan statement, after the list was submitted to the Ministry of Rites yesterday, the guards of the examination court were lax, and people began to go in and out, it is estimated that someone leaked the inside story to the Guan Pu shop, so the Guan Pu shop was urgently adjusted."

Su Liang was so anxious that he slapped the table, "I would have bet fifty taels of silver if I knew it." ”

Fan Ning said with a smile: "The final lottery is to see the results of the palace exam, and you should feel lucky to lose nine out of ten bets!" ”

At this time, Akihito said again: "There is another strange thing! ”

Fanning was about to drink when the glass reached her lips and stopped.

"What's the strange thing?"

Mingren said with a puzzled face: "In the past two days, many people have come to Shuyuan Street to ask Tian Huangshi, yesterday the treasurer of the Treasure Hall Luo Da found me, he is willing to pay two yuan to buy Tian Huangshi, how much he will collect?" ”

Fan Ning thought of Fan Zhong's flooding into the palace to offer stones, the prophet of Chunjiang plumbing duck, could it be that someone already smelled it?

"Who owns the Treasure Hall?" Fanning asked.

"It seems to be a big eunuch in the palace, I don't know who it is."

Zhu Pei said: "It's the shop opened by Tian Zhen, the deputy head of the palace, they should have gotten the news." ”

"What's the news?" Fanning and Akihito asked in unison.

Zhu Pei hesitated and said, "I just heard, I'm not sure, I heard that Tian Huangshi has been listed as a tribute." ”

Fanning and Akihito glanced at each other, and there was a surprise in their eyes that could not be concealed, if Tian Huangshi was listed as a tribute, then their plan would be successful.

As long as any item is listed as a tribute, it will be worth a hundred times, and since the store of the deputy head of Ouchi is willing to buy a large amount of goods at the price of two yuan a piece, it means that this news will not be groundless.

Fan Ning wanted to ask again, but Zhu Pei glared at him and said unhappily: "For you, what is the most important thing now, is Tian Huangshi important, or is the palace test important?" ”

Akihito also wanted to look forward to Tian Huangshi's bright future again, but Zhu Pei's words made him shut up in amusement.

........

Su Liang's excitement lasted for three days, and on the fourth day, when his excitement finally cooled down, he suddenly panicked in his heart.

How should he prepare for the palace exam?

In fact, Su Liang knew in his heart that the fundamental reason why he was able to take the provincial examination was that Fan Ning told himself the title of the essay in advance, and forced himself to recite "Song Criminal Unity" repeatedly.

Thinking of the upcoming palace examination, what if I lose my ugliness in the palace examination and am deprived of the qualification of Jinshi by the imperial court?

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he almost couldn't sleep all night, and before dawn he ran to knock on Fanning's door again.

Fanning yawned while listening to Su Liang's complaints.

"I really convinced you, you didn't sleep all night for this little thing?"

"Is this a small thing? The palace test! The Son of Heaven took the exam in person, isn't it a crime of deception to hand in the blank papers, Fanning, what do you think the palace exam will test? Su Liang looked at Fanning with blank eyes.

Fanning rolled his eyes, "How do I know what the temple test is?" Are you a god when I am? ”

"What then? What if I get nervous and won't do anything? ”

Fan Ning saw that he was about to cry, so he had to comfort him and said, "Although I don't know what the palace examination is, you can learn about the previous imperial examinations!" What were the previous palace exams? If you knew, you wouldn't be as nervous as you are now. ”

"Do you know what to test?"

"I probably know a little bit, basically it is related to people's livelihood, the content of the last exam is related to persuading farmers, the last exam is the salt tea tax, and the last session seems to be the test of how to settle orphans and widows, only the second year of Kangding is the defense of Shaanxi, because the year before, Yuan Hao attacked the Song Dynasty."

"What if I prepare for the exam this year?"

Fan Ning said with a smile: "The countermeasures of the palace examination are different from the countermeasures of the provincial examination, they are not big questions, they are all small questions, a total of three questions, each question is six or seven hundred words, all of which are close to life. ”

"What does it mean to retreat?"

Su Liang suddenly became nervous, "Do you want to return me and deprive me of my qualification to take the provincial exam?" ”

Fan Ning shook his head, "The retreat undoubtedly means that your academic level is not good enough, and you can't be a formal jinshi, so you will be on the second list with the fourth class, and you will be given the same jinshi background." ”

Su Liang breathed a sigh of relief, and asked again, "Then have you made a bet on the topic?" ”

Fanning really doesn't know what the palace exam will test? He didn't have this information in his head, but he could find some patterns in the questions of previous palace exams.

Historically, Song Renzong was a very diligent emperor who cared about the people's welfare, and it was in his hands that the economy of the Song Dynasty developed by leaps and bounds.

He was more concerned about the people's livelihood, and he also hoped that his ministers would also care about the people's welfare, and these ideas were often reflected in the imperial examinations, especially the palace examinations.

Generally speaking, some major events in society will be reflected in the temple examination.

Fan Ning pondered for a moment and said: "Last autumn there was a great drought in Hebei, more than 100,000 displaced people ran to Kaifeng Mansion to beg for food, and the imperial court transferred 500,000 stone grain from Taicang to relieve the great drought in Hebei. ”

Su Liang's eyes lit up, he had really prepared this aspect.

"Is there anything else?"

Fan Ning thought for a while and said: "My cousin Fan Zhongyan was transferred to the capital, I'm afraid that the Son of Heaven will mention reform again, but he will be very cautious, maybe a little test in this imperial examination, if the question is to relieve the hardships of the peasants, you can use Wang Anshi's Qingmiao method in Yinzhou to answer, the chief examiner is Ouyang Xiu, he recognizes Wang Anshi's reform." ”

"Anything else?"

Fan Ning shook his head and smiled: "I can't think of anything else, in fact, you have been deep in the countryside for nearly two months to investigate, you know the farmers' sufferings very well, this is your advantage, you have to try to make use of it, no matter which year the palace examination, you will get a little bit of content related to farmers, as long as you play well, there will be no problem in the fourth class." ”

Su Liang was encouraged by Fan Ning's words, he gradually gained confidence, and relaxed all of a sudden, he only felt that he was exhausted, and sleepiness hit him suddenly, and yawned: "I have to go back to sleep for a while, I am really sleepy and can't stand it, please eat at night!" ”

He went back with a deep foot and a shallow foot.

Fanning had been very sleepy, but after saying that, he was now unusually awake, and he felt that he needed to organize his thoughts a little more, so he sat down at his desk and began to fall into deep thought.
