Zhu Hao almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood after hearing this.

How long does it take to finish the exam? It takes a whole day to take the first test of the Ming Mansion exam, but you actually let me finish the exam in the morning?

It's so reasonable!

In the face of such a cheeky person......

Zhu Hao chose not to argue with him.

Anyway, it's not been a day or two since I met Tang Yin, this old boy always does something out of the ordinary, maybe he is really not confident, he is so timid when he even sees an old friend, you deserved to be poor for half your life in your previous life, and you were praised in every way in the movies in the later life, it turns out that you are such a Tang Bohu!

In the afternoon of the same day, Zhu Hao and Yuan Rulin went to meet the other three people who met each other during the county exam, but unfortunately the five people who took the exam together at the beginning are currently one less, He Gong did not win in this county exam, but Peng Dong, who had been picking his nose at Zhu Hao before, and Zhang Levy, who was relatively peaceful and afraid of causing trouble, passed the test together, but the rankings were not very high.

"Sure enough, it's the head of the county among you, no wonder the city is saying that the government is privately giving and receiving it, this world is really not ancient!"

Although Peng Dong's tone is still not good, his arrogance is obviously not as good as before.

It's not that he has to show weakness, it's all because his ranking in the county exam is not as good as Zhu Hao, and the condescending momentum at the beginning collapsed in an instant.

Zhang Levy said: "Zhu Gongzi and Yuan Gongzi have famous teachers to teach, and even Fan Xuezheng recognizes their talents, and it is not difficult for them to come to the county test at all." ”

As he spoke, Zhang Levi's eyes were full of envy when he looked at Zhu Hao.

People can take the county case head exam only once, and they are about to become a showman at a young age, which means that they can be exempted from conscription in the future, this year, just a conscription is enough to make adult men miserable, once something happens on the way to the service, the whole family will be ruined......

has a fame in his body, which can be said to be the lifelong pursuit of the children of the Shangjia family.

Yuan Rulin said: "Zhu Haocai is very good at learning, he won the county case with his real ability." ”

"Really? I don't think so, right? ”

Peng Dong's tone was still not good.

Although dissatisfied, but this time the government exam, the four people still married each other, and the other one was added, but it was an old Confucian who had participated in several government exams, and he probably felt embarrassed that he didn't come to this party.

Zhang Lewei said with a smile: "Now the rumors have spread widely, all say that there is collusion between the palace and the state government, but I think it is purely a false rumor, if the government really intends to favor the children from the palace, why is the person at the head of the case in Zhongxian not Yuan Gongzi, but Zhu Gongzi?" ”

One sentence is to the point.

said that there was a cat between the government and the palace, and they taught and received each other privately, and the two children selected by the palace were sent to pass the county test, which sounds very much in line with the subconscious cognition of ordinary students, but it is not easy to explain it-

Yuan Rulin is the grandson of Shi Yuan Zonggao, the head of the royal palace who was born in Jinshi, and he is older, and he meets the conditions that should be the head of a county, so that Yuan Rulin will not cause criticism when he is the head of the county, after all, others will think that Yuan Rulin is from a famous family, and he has been taught by his grandfather since he was a child, and when he is about to become an adult, what is wrong with taking the county case head?

Do you have to find a nine-year-old child to be the head of the county? Deliberately suspicious of outsiders? Besides, Zhu Hao is from the Xing Palace, but he is not the child of any official in the palace, what is the benefit of this for the palace?

Zhang Lewei said: "I didn't have time to discuss the knowledge with the two of you last time, and I will take the government exam tomorrow, I wonder if the two gentlemen can bet on the question?" ”

Yuan Rulin looked confused: "Why do you want to bet?" ”

Zhu Hao had a knowing smile on his face.

Just now, Zhang Levi also clarified for him, saying that it was impossible to collude between the government and the palace, but he turned his face and asked if there was a question? The meaning is obvious, if your husband bets on the question, whether he wins or not, it may be the exam question of tomorrow's government exam, tell me that I can prepare one or two when I go back.

Even Peng Dong, who was on the side, understood the meaning, and looked at Zhu Hao and Yuan Rulin with expectant eyes, hoping that the two could reveal a little bit of the topic.

Zhu Hao sighed: "Recently, Mr. has come up with a lot of questions, I don't know if it counts as a question...... Ru Lin, is that so? ”

Yuan Rulin thought about it and couldn't help nodding.

Preparing for the government exam, of course, Mr. will come up with a question to write an article, which is nothing unusual, but from Tang Yin to Fan Yikuan, and then to Yuan Zonggao, there have been questions, and there are quite a few, I didn't say which question is specially designed for the government exam? Yuan Rulin didn't understand why Zhu Hao said this.

"That'...... What are they? ”

Zhang Levy asked step by step.

Zhu Hao thought about it, shook his head and said, "I can't remember it all for a while." ”

"If you can't remember everything, then pick and choose the key points, such as how your husband guided, and whether you deliberately wrote a model essay for you to memorize silently......"

Zhang Levy sent to say, did your husband help you write an article so that you could copy it in tomorrow's government examination.

Zhu Hao looked at Yuan Rulin curiously and asked, "Rulin, do you remember when Mr. wrote us a model text?" ”

Yuan Rulin shook his head sincerely.

Yes, no.

Fan Yikuan and Tang Yin are both above-the-top figures, and they usually have some pointers on Zhu Hao and Yuan Rulin's articles, but most of them correct sentence flow and grammatical errors, especially the eight-strand duality needs to be strictly corrected, as for helping them write...... People don't do that.

Zhang Levi asked: "Then have your husbands mentioned many times which chapter of the Analects to focus on when preparing for the exam?" ”

Zhu Hao sneered: "Gongzi Zhang, why don't you just ask what the exam questions are for tomorrow's house...... This seems to be a bit more concise and easier to answer than the crooked questions you're asking now. ”

Zhang Lewei was poked by Zhu Hao in the center, his face was red with shame, and he lowered his head and didn't even dare to speak.

"If you don't say it, forget it, why bother people so much?"

Peng Dong began to complain about Zhang Levy.

Before, you were still saying good things for these two people, you see, people don't appreciate it at all, and they directly make sarcastic remarks, and they are kind enough to be donkey's liver and lungs, right?

Zhu Hao said: "I said the two of you, we are all taking the government exam together, how do you think we can know the exam questions in advance?" Fan Xuezheng is now teaching in the palace and is known for his academic rigor, and if you are known to ask such a question, he will definitely blow his beard and stare at him. ”

Zhang Liewei certainly knew Fan Yikuan's status among the local Confucian scholars.

That belongs to the erudite Confucian, peach and plum all over the world, think about it, if he really knows that he asks Zhu Hao and Yuan Rulin whether they leak the question, it is strange that people are not in a hurry with you!

Who do you look down upon?

I'm a disciple of Fan Yikuan...... Although he has not been cultivated for a few days, he is still a disciple after all, and he can still help him to study in the way of leaking questions? So how will I gain a foothold in the education industry in the future? You have to talk about evidence, and if there is no evidence, I will tell you not to want to mix in Shilin in the future.

"I didn't mean anything like that, I just wanted to see how you are doing." Zhang Levi hastened to justify his actions.

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "It's okay, I'm going to take the exam soon, I want to know more about some questions, and it's reasonable to see the situation of famous teachers." In this way, I will tell you a few questions that my husband has come up with recently, and you can prepare for the exam well after you go back, which can be regarded as a friend. ”

Zhang Levy didn't expect Zhu Hao to be so "easy to speak".

Before, he looked like he was going to break with them, and he helped with the question as soon as he twisted his face?

"Thank you, thank you."

Zhang Levi expressed his gratitude.

In his opinion, maybe there are really questions for tomorrow's exam, but Fan Yikuan didn't explain it to Zhu Hao and Yuan Rulin?

……

……

Half an hour later, Zhu Hao and Yuan Rulin returned to the palace together.

On the way, Yuan Rulin asked puzzledly: "Zhu Hao, are they suspicious, do they think we have any way to get the exam questions for tomorrow's government exam?" ”

Zhu Hao said: "I said Ru Lin, you haven't reacted until now?" ”

"They...... How can they do that? ”

Yuan Rulin is not good at words on weekdays, and he is a little dull, but he has a strong sense of self-esteem, and he actually rolled up his sleeves after being insulted, and he has a great posture of wanting to fight with others.

But Zhu Hao felt ......

Are you going to be too late to know it? You were stunned and didn't react when people said it just now, but now you want to find a place when you look back, it's too late, right?

Zhu Hao sighed: "Rulin, we are both in the palace, if we fail the exam, they will laugh and even ridicule, thinking that we can't get the moon first; But once we pass the exam, they will criticize us, saying that we have successfully crossed the threshold of admission through abnormal relationships. ”

"They...... How could they be? ”

Yuan Rulin was a little aggrieved.

I studied hard and studied the exam with real talent, but I was so misunderstood?

Zhu Hao smiled: "Actually, I don't blame them, what they hate is not us, but a kind of prejudice unique to the class or the gate lord and the scholar clan, and it is a kind of protection for people's hearts to their own failures...... Everyone doesn't want to face failure and let themselves be decadent, but they need to find a motivation to keep trying, right? ”

Yuan Rulin didn't understand it at all this time, his eyes were empty, and he looked at Zhu Hao blankly.

Let's put it this way, if we fail, we will also find some excuses, such as not playing well that day, or because we are too nervous, or because we have been bothered by mundane things recently, and we can't study with peace of mind...... Their reason is that it is not that we are not good at learning, but because others have connections and paths...... That's probably what it means. ”

Zhu Hao explained again.

Yuan Rulin said: "But they are wronging us. ”

Zhu Hao said: "Sometimes they are really wrong, I am Ming from top to bottom, I can't say that this situation doesn't exist, we can only say that we have to avoid it as much as possible, we can't be honest, and those who are clear are self-purifying." And isn't this kind of unruly convenience itself a kind of rule? ”

"Huh?"

Yuan Rulin couldn't accept this kind of dialectical rhetoric at all.

Zhu Hao sighed: "It is impossible for you to change other people's prejudices, only if you stand tall enough, others can't even look up at you, and they naturally have no prejudices." It's only when you're looked up to by people that you're qualified to change everything, aren't you? ”
