Hearing the sudden sound, several Jiangxi candidates looked sideways.

But I saw a young man, who looked like Mu Ne, also carrying Kaolan and grinning at them.

Everyone had a strange look.

That's it for readers.

Generally speaking, people with good grades will say that I didn't do well in the exam.

Those with poor grades say that I will answer this question, so easy.

Seeing that someone actually came up to say such things, Zeng Di was slightly stunned, and then saluted the young man: "Dare to ask my friend's surname." ”

The young man said: "Guozijian Justice Hall, Gu Xingzu!" ”

With that, he ran away with Kaolan in his hand.

Zeng was stunned.

Guozijian ...... Serious people, capable people, who wants to go to the country, that's where the second ancestors went.

Church of Justice ...... Isn't that the beginner class in the National Prison?

Who is Gu Xingzu...... Unheard.

At this time, Zhou Shu suddenly said: "I heard that there has been a strange thing in the Guozi Prison recently, the emperor actually appointed a relative as a doctor, this person is unbearable, right...... It's called Zhang Anshi...... Oh, yes, yes, he's coaching the Church of Justice. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone burst into laughter.

Zeng Di smiled and said in the accent of Jishui County: "No, no, when I go back, I want to talk to my fellow villagers, it's so funny." ”

…………

"How's it going?"

As soon as Gu Xingzu returned to China, he was immediately surrounded by Zhang Anshi.

Gu Xingzu said: "The question is very easy, I thought of seven solutions, originally I wanted to use the method of relying on the note to control the problem, but after thinking about it carefully, I felt that such a question, if it is still stable, it is really inappropriate, so I used the method of obedience and disobedience to do the problem." ”

Zhang Anshi cocked his thumb: "Okay, this method of relying on annotations to control the question is indeed stable, but it is just a large number of quotations from Zhu Xi's annotations." However, this method of obedience and rebellion is different, and it is guaranteed to shock the four. ”

Zhang Anshi is not bragging, because the eight-strand text of the law of obedience and rebellion only began to appear in the late Jiajing period.

The great thing about this style of writing is that when you write the first four strands from the order of the question to the end of the question, and the last four strands should go up from the end of the question in reverse order, to the beginning of the question, so that such a style can be orderly, hierarchical, and undulating.

This new eight-strand line is already a great leap forward, which is equivalent to using a big truck when others are still using mules to pull carts.

Zhang Anshi was very relieved to arrive, Gu Xingzu was out of breath, and dared to use such a difficult formula directly.

Gu Xingzu said: "Teacher, I'm going to solve the problem, I haven't solved the problem I set up yet." ”

When Zhang Anshi heard this, he was furious: "Enter your mother!" I'm done with the exams, and I'm still solving a fart question. ”

"Ah......" Gu Xingzu's mouth opened widely: "But...... But ......"

Zhang Anshi said: "These eight stocks are the most useless things, you will get it after the exam, don't read those bad books in the future, follow us in the future, we will take you to fry fish." ”

"Ah......h

Qiu Songthief smiled and took out a big dick from his arms.

Gu Xingzu said aggrievedly: "But I still want to solve the problem......"

It's just that he can't help it at this time.

Zhu Yong and Zhang Xuan fought him, and he ran.

…………

The next day, Zhang Anshi was called to the East Palace.

As soon as the crown princess Zhang saw him, her eyes turned red: "Your brother-in-law was dizzy and sick early this morning, and I don't know what you are doing outside all day......

Zhang Anshi was anxious, and immediately said anxiously: "I'll take a look." ”

When I arrived at the sickbed, I saw Zhu Gaochi looking very weak.

Zhu Zhanji squatted in the corner of the hall, still squatting like a minion.

Zhang Anshi stepped forward, probably after seeing it, only to know that Zhu Gaochi was caused by excessive fatigue, and his health was not good.

Zhang Anshi glanced back at Zhang: "Sister, have you reported to the palace?" ”

Zhang glanced at Zhang Anshi meaningfully: "Such a small illness naturally can't worry Your Majesty." ”

Zhang Anshi suddenly felt the depth of his sister's thoughts.

If the prince is weak and sickly, it is not fun, if there is a headache and heat, he will go to the report, the emperor loves his son, and he will be worried.

But on the other hand, wouldn't there be other ideas?

This kid's physique is so weak, and his grandson is still young, if there is something good, what will happen to this country in the future?

Once such an idea is born, then the two brothers of the prince, whether it is Zhu Gaoxu or Zhu Gaosui, who has already become a vassal, will have an opportunity to take advantage of.

Zhang Anshi nodded, and said to his brother-in-law with concern: "Brother-in-law, you have to pay more attention to your body." ”

"It's not about the imperial examination, the examination room for the imperial examination, the deployment of personnel, and the supply of food, many affairs, not a single cent can go wrong." Zhu Gaochi sighed: "Now the exam is finally over, but ...... I'm afraid this is just the beginning, and I don't know what the future will be. ”

Zhang Anshi hurriedly comforted: "Don't worry, it'll be fine." ”

Zhu Gaochi was still worried: "Not to mention the end of the Tang Dynasty to the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, at that time, the Southern and Northern Dynasties were disliked each other. In the Yuan Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty established the Southern Imperial Examination and the Han Imperial Examination, and divided the Han people into the north and south......"

The phenomenon Zhu Gaochi mentioned was actually that after the Mongols entered the Central Plains, they only recognized the northern Han people as Han Chinese, and set up a special examination for them to take the imperial examination, while the southern Han people participated in the examination of the Southern People's List.

Since then, the situation of secession between the north and the south has intensified under the instigation of people with good intentions.

"Emperor Taizu Gao set the world in the world, and originally wanted to bridge the north and the south, so that my Ming Dynasty would be unified, and there was no distinction between the north and the south, but where did I think that this imperial examination would become an excuse to breed suspicion."

Zhu Gaochi let out a long breath and said, "You must think that this palace is worried about it because it is afraid of the punishment of the emperor." Hey, An Shi, what I'm worried about is the Ming Dynasty! ”

"Our Ming Dynasty restored the Han Dynasty, it is only a few decades, we must not chill the hearts of the southerners, nor the hearts of the northern scholars, this is the country's foundation, unshakable."

Zhang Anshi comforted: "Brother-in-law, don't think about this first, let's recuperate well in the next few days." ”

After a pause, Zhang Anshi couldn't help but say: "If my brother-in-law has a mistake, what should you do with Sister Edutain, Zhan Ji and me?" ”

Zhu Gaochi nodded.

Zhang Anshi walked out of the dormitory, and Zhu Zhanji chased him out.

Zhang Anshi said with a rare solemnity: "Your father is sick, you are still hiding in the corner, do you still have a conscience?" If you treat your father like this today, will he still be filial to your uncle in the future? ”

Zhu Zhanji drooped his head and looked sad: "I'm also afraid that something will happen to my father, but I'm used to standing there, my uncle taught me to see all directions, listen to all directions, except for my own family, everyone else must be careful and careful." ”

Zhang Anshi's face softened, touched his head, and said patiently: "Okay, okay, your father is fine, just rest for a few days, don't look worried." ”

Zhu Zhanji said: "In addition to worrying about my father's condition, I also ...... Still...... Grandpa Huang didn't know what was going on, and suddenly sent a few people to teach me to read, and taught me to memorize four books every day...... I...... I ......"

Zhang Anshi smiled and said, "Now is the time for you to learn knowledge." Study hard, what's the matter. Look at your uncle, isn't it because he is tireless in learning that he can have such achievements today? You have to learn from your uncle. ”

Zhu Zhanji said with a bitter face: "But...... Uncle......"

Zhang Anshi put away his smile and said angrily: "Okay, don't say anything later." ”

Zhu Zhanji tilted his head and thought for a while: "After learning the Analects, can you really rule the world?" ”

Zhang Anshi said very directly: "No." ”

"But why do they say it's okay to learn?"

"Don't always believe what those people say."

"Then I won't study."

Zhang Anshi gritted his teeth and said, "Come, Uncle will teach you a truth." You sit down. ”

So Zhu Zhanji sat on the steps in front of the hall.

Zhang Anshi said: "Do you know that there is a kind of tomb robber in this world? ”

Zhu Zhanji was shocked and said: "There are still such people? ”

Zhang Anshi said: "The first thing this tomb robber wants to learn is the art of feng shui. Do you know why? ”

Zhu Zhanji looked at Zhang Anshi ignorantly and said, "I don't understand." ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Learning the art of feng shui is not because tomb robbers have learned this, just by feng shui, you can find luxurious tombs." Rather, it is because those who are noble and wealthy are convinced that those Feng Shui magicians often choose a good burial location according to the advice of the Feng Shui magician. In this way, those tomb robbers, as long as they follow the feng shui magicians to learn and know which places are the auspicious positions of feng shui, they will definitely find the tomb there. Do you know what I mean? ”

"Let you learn the Four Books and Five Classics, not let you rely on the Four Books and Five Classics to govern the world, these things are useless, but after you learn these things, you will find out the thoughts of hundreds of officials and scholars. If you have their minds, you can harness them and make them work for you, which is the same as a tomb robber. ”

Zhu Zhanji's eyes lit up when he heard this: "I understand." ”

"But you must not really believe their words, once you do, you lose."

Zhu Zhanji nodded desperately.

Then he said, "Then who do I believe?" ”

Zhang Anshi's hand conjured an inverted figure, and then put it under his chin: "Guess." ”

Zhu Zhanji said: "It won't be uncle, right?" ”

Zhang Anshi said: "We are a family, if we can't even trust our family in the world, then who else in the world can be trusted?" ”

Zhu Zhanji nodded suspiciously and said, "But...... I was studying yesterday and I heard from my masters that Emperor Wen of Han had killed his uncle Bo Zhao. ”

Zhang Anshi was furious, his eyes widened and said: "Damn, these Confucian students are separated from our uncle and nephew, and we must take more precautions in the future." ”

Zhu Zhanji saw that Zhang Anshi was angry, so he didn't dare to speak.

Zhang Anshi lowered his voice and said: "In the future, I will secretly teach you real knowledge, don't tell anyone else......"

Zhu Zhanji looked at Zhang Anshi with suspicious eyes.

…………

Nanjing Gongyuan.

This place is adjacent to the Confucius Temple.

Here, Xie Jin's four examiners have already sat upright.

In the coming days, they will need to review tens of thousands of papers.

More than 400 people with the title of the gold list were selected.

This is definitely a high-intensity work, after all, countless candidates' net worth and lives are maintained on this small test paper.

Although this is a bit funny for future generations, the world's elites regard Baguwen as everything, and they have worked hard all their lives, just to make a good article that can soar to the sky.

But for the scholars of this era, especially for Xie Jin and others, this is a sacred thing.

Marking papers for two consecutive days.

Almost all of them were tired.

From the freshness at the beginning, to now, it is only boring.

In fact, the vast majority of people's test papers can't even do the point questions, which can be described as not in the stream.

Reading too many such articles will only make people tired.

After a long time, someone suddenly said: "Hey......"

In the Minglun Hall of the Gongyuan, which was originally extremely quiet, a voice broke the silence.

The one who made the voice was the priest of the country, Hu Yan.

As one of the four examiners, Hu Yan at this time had a solemn face.

Then he got up and walked in front of the examiner, Xie Jin.

"Xie Gong, this article ...... Something offbeat. ”

When Xie Jin heard about the alternative, his first reaction was disgust, and he subconsciously said: "Some readers, grandstanding, such articles...... It's really not in the stream, such a crazy life, it's not bad if you don't punish the crime! ”

This is also true, occasionally, the marking officer will always meet a few crazy people.

And the word alternative is by no means a good word, which also means deviant, which is what people like Xie Jin hate the most.

Hu Yan shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Non-yes, non-yes, Xie Gong, you look at the style of this article." ”

Xie Jin had to endure the disgust, mainly because his current impression of Hu Yan was also very bad, Hu Yan was a person who was obedient on the surface, but in fact, he ...... Not honest.

But when it came to this, Xie Jin still picked up the test paper and looked at it, but his face was solemn.

There is nothing wrong with this style of writing, there is no more than one word, and there is no less than one word, which belongs to the eight strands of the most serious eight classics.

No matter whether it is a problem, a topic, a starting stock, a middle share, or a back stock, there is absolutely nothing to find fault with.

It is very decent to solve the topic, but when it comes to the topic, the meaning becomes deeper and deeper, and it begins to layer by layer, expounding the sage's point of view.

And this kind of situation, which is like waves rising higher than waves, is unprecedented.

Compared to the other eight-stranded ...... This article is eye-catching, but it is by no means deviant.

"It turns out that eight shares, can it still be written like this?" Xie Jin was surprised: "I really don't know which genius did it." ”

It's a pity that the test paper is vague.

Xie Jin didn't know the answer.

It was all of a sudden, but it also attracted Hu Guang and Yang Rong, especially Hu Guang, Hu Guang was also the champion, after he read this test paper, he couldn't put it down and said: "The candidates for this article must be our Jiangxi people." ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help laughing, and Xie Jin said, "How can you see it? ”

Hu Guangdao: "Need you talk about this? You look at this article, it is very sophisticated, and only our talents in Jiangxi can do such a sophisticated way! There is such a style, it is really a precedent, the old man has read countless articles, and I have never seen someone so innovative, in my shallow opinion, there must be a talent in Jiangxi. ”

Xie Jin couldn't help laughing and said: "It must be a talented man in Jishui County, I heard that in the past two years, Jishui County has produced several more talents, could it be one of them?" ”

Among these four people, most of them are from Jishui County, only Hu Yan is more miserable, he is from Nanchang Mansion, Jiangxi, he brushed his beard and said: "But is that the one named Zeng Ji?" ”

Yang Rong coughed and said, "Princess, we are the examiners, and it is not appropriate to guess the names and surnames of the candidates." ”

When everyone heard this, they seemed to understand, and they sat down again.

Xie Jin took the test paper, pondered for a moment, picked up the pen, and wrote the judgment on the paper.

………………

In the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.

Several governors were sitting together.

At this time, Qiu Fu said: "I heard that the people in the capital have been restless recently, and they are about to be unveiled, and I don't know what will happen." ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Neng became energetic, and said with a smile: "You don't know, I heard about it...... Gu Cheng's grandson really went to take the exam. ”

"Oh?" Xu Huizu, the Duke of Wei, said: "We people don't have children and grandchildren to take the test, so we are ashamed to say it." ”

Zhu Neng said with great interest: "It's good that you didn't go to the exam, don't you know, Gu Chengdu cried, he and I drank, crying very sadly, saying that his grandson had to go to the exam, the day before the exam, that night, his grandson was still crying." ”

"Crying? Why are you crying? ”

"Say yes, I won't do the question." Zhu Neng's eyebrows fluttered and said: "Think about it, you can't do this question, what is he going to do?" Ay...... It's over, it's over, it's embarrassing, poor Gu Cheng I's fame, he was ruined by this grandson, if he handed in a blank scroll, he would be laughing and generous. ”

Qiu Fu scolded with a smile: "You can still laugh, the day the list is released, let's mention the old wine, go and see him, it's not easy for him, just such a grandson, besides, our son is still a teaching assistant." ”

Zhu Neng held his face: "Hey, I forgot this, haha...... Ha ha...... My son has been cheated for so long, and now he is proud to be able to harm others, and he is glorious to his ancestors! ”

Zhu Neng let out a laugh like a pig.

For several days, it rained in the capital.

Zhang Anshi took four people to fry fish at Qixia Ferry for fun, here, it was his world, and no one could care about it, so he was very happy and happy.

The crossing also began to come into order, and it became a transit point for countless ferries and merchant ships.

Zhang Anshi even plans to set up the headquarters of Brother Shipbuilding here.

But at this time, the release period has finally arrived.

Although he relaxed for a few days, Zhang Anshi was still a little nervous.

In fact, he didn't know if it worked or not.

However, Zhang Anshi got up early in the morning and called Zhang San first.

Zhang Sandui said with a smile: "Childe, got up so early today?" ”

Zhang Anshi said: "The last time I taught you to print the book, did you print it?" ”

"Printing started months early." Zhang Sandao: "In the past few months, I have found several printing workshops, but Gongzi wants to print 100,000 copies...... All the workshops in the city, all the small ones, have been searched, and so far, only 80,000 copies have been printed. ”

Zhang Anshi scolded: "If it's not enough, you can go to the booksellers in Zhenjiang and Suzhou to print, you guy......"

Zhang San only had a bitter face and stopped talking.

Zhang Anshi said: "Go and get the sample book." ”

Zhang Sanru was amnestied, and after a while, he came back breathless and handed over a sample book to Zhang Anshi.

But I saw that on the cover of such a book, it was written: "Zhang Anshi's Eight Shares of Pen Talk" seven words.

Zhang Anshi said: "Distribute it to booksellers everywhere and tell them that a book sells for three taels of silver, and not a penny is missing." ”

Zhang San seemed to be shocked, and said in shock: "It's so expensive, and other books are only sold for one or two hundred yuan, son, do you still know eight shares?" Ahem...... The small meaning is that the booksellers may not be willing to read the book. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Then put on the name of my brother Yang Shiqi, it's really not possible, you can call my mentor Hu Yan to recommend it, all in all, hurry up and get the book, don't be verbose, this bookseller sells a copy, let's give them fifty dollars in rebates." ”

"Oh." This time, Zhang San didn't say much, nodded and went to work, but he was still a little disappointed in his heart, after all, ...... It is inevitable that people will be ridiculed if you go.

Zhang Anshi suddenly felt a lot better.

This printing also cost him more than 10,000 taels of silver.

Whether it is a loss or a gain, it depends on Gu Xingzu.

I hope you don't lose all your money.

Then, Zhang Anshi met with the three murderers in the capital, and then found Gu Xingzu and rushed all the way to the Gongyuan.

When I arrived outside the Tribute Courtyard, it was already crowded with people, not only more than tens of thousands of people who came to see the list, but also many people who did good deeds.

There are also some talents who are not qualified to take the exam, but also want to increase their knowledge.

Plus some who are counting on giving good news to people and getting good money.

Many merchants, seeing this opportunity, picked up all kinds of food and shuttled among the crowd, so it was not lively.

At this time, the crowd was buzzing.

Zhu Yong relied on his tall stature to open the way in front of him, squeezing out many weak scholars, and soon, Zhang Anshi and a few others had already appeared under the list.

Of course, the list has not yet been released, so everyone is just waiting for the blank wall.

After that, many people were talking about it, gossiping, and guessing about the results of this time.

Of course...... Southerners and northerners have a lot of hatred for each other.

There are already many northern scholars who have begun to complain: "This examiner is all southerners, and they are all from Jiangxi, so they must look down on us northern scholars." ”

"When Emperor Hongwu was here, they would rather go toe-to-toe with Emperor Hongwu than admit us."

Naturally, there are also scholars in the south who provoke: "This imperial examination, who is better than nature in the article, who is willing to gamble and lose, they are all scholars, how can anyone who is not as skilled as others refuse to admit it?" ”

"What do you say? What did you say? ”

The crowd was in a commotion.

Fortunately, there have already been a lot of captains of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division in civilian clothes, busy separating people.

After a while, many scholars automatically parted paths.

Immediately, several readers appeared under the list.

These people, wearing Confucian shirts, are all radiant and looking forward to extraordinary appearances.

Obviously, many readers recognize them, so they heard people whispering: "These are all talents of Jishui, I have the opportunity to read their articles, and I am really impressed." ”

"That one is Zeng Di, and the other is called Zhou Shu, and the other is called Zhou Mengqi...... These three ...... The article is the best. ”

"This time they should be successful, but I don't know if they can make the top list."

Many people looked at Zeng Di and a few people, and they all showed envy.

Sometimes, you meet someone who really has to be convinced, and they can do better than your article lying down.

Zeng Di didn't seem to care about these, he just smiled, but at a glance, he saw Gu Xingzu, and couldn't help but say: "This virtuous brother, isn't it Gu Tongnian who we met last time?" ”

Gu Xingzu looked at Zeng Di, and then looked up at Zhang Anshi.

Zhang Anshi said: "Fool, say hello to people." ”

Gu Xingzu went up and said, "Meet again." ”

Seeing this, Zeng Yi said, "Last time you said you did well in the exam......

The sound of these words was not loud or small, and although it was noisy here, everyone around them could hear it.

These people who heard it all looked at Gu Xingzu strangely.

This is very new, and some people say that they did well in the exam.

This man will not be a ......

Someone muttered: "I know him, he is the grandson of the Hou Ye, and he studied under Zhang Anshi." ”

"Hahahaha......"

I don't know who it was, and I laughed.

All of a sudden, the people who watched the list were happy.

Even Zeng Di couldn't help laughing, but said: "Gu Tongnian, they are just joking, don't you mind." ”

Zhang Anshi was furious and said coldly: "Can a joke be made like this?" Why can't you mind? Damn, it's a good thing my fourth brother didn't bring gunpowder, otherwise, none of you want to run. ”

When they heard this, they were all astonished.

Zeng Di was also dumbfounded, and Zhou Mengqi on the other side pulled Zeng Di's sleeve and signaled Zeng Di not to worry about it anymore, it was important to look at the list.

Zhang Anshi immediately ignored them.

At this moment, a gong finally sounded, and the list was ready to be released.

All of a sudden, the crowd stirred.

No one cares about Zhang Anshi's amazing words anymore.

Everyone held their heads high, waiting for the officers to post a list on the high wall.

The crowd quieted down.

It's just that occasionally, someone suddenly shouts: "Haha, I'm hit, I'm hit." ”

More people...... It's just extra nervous.

Zhang Anshi didn't see Gu Xingzu's name.

However, seeing that a few surnamed Zeng did not leave, I probably understood in my heart that there should be a list behind me.

So I continued to wait patiently.

For the first time, Gu Xingzu felt the taste of such a hundred claws scratching his heart, he looked at it again and again, and was disappointed again and again.

Later, I couldn't help but feel a little lost.

I've been doing this question for so long...... Ay......

At this moment, someone shouted: "The heavenly list is here, the heavenly list is here." ”

Immediately, a piece of red paper was pasted on the wall.

The vast majority of people are accustomed to being at the back of the list and looking all the way forward.

Zhang Anshi was not exempt from vulgarity, and when he saw the tenth place, he was already a little anxious.

Possible...... This Gu Xingzu is folded, it doesn't matter, just go back and give a beating, it's just a pity...... I have lost so much money.

When I saw the third and fourth, I saw the names of Zhou Mengqi and Zhou Shu.

At this time, some people have already begun to discuss: "Damn, why are they all from Jiangxi and from Najishui County...... Unjust...... It's unfair......"

2nd Place...... It's Zeng.

Zhang Anshi glanced at Zeng Di in surprise, he never expected that this guy would be so powerful.

But Zeng Di showed a look of loss.

It's like a bad test, embarrassed.

Zhang Anshi continued to look up, and suddenly, a name appeared in Zhang Anshi's eyes: "Gu Xingzu." ”

Zhang Anshi was stunned.

He felt that with Gu Xingzu's level, it would be good to be on the list.

How could it be...... Ranked first?

Behind him, there was a lot of commotion, and there was shouting and scolding everywhere.
