Chapter Twenty-Eight: Liu Xiu
The stream was murmuring, and not far from the creek, under the green trees, lay a few young men, not ordinary in costume, two or three of them were dressed in fine clothes, and the other few were somewhat ordinary.
One of the young men dressed in fancy clothes sat up and leaned against a tree, "I heard from my father two days ago that the prospective brother-in-law of the Empress Dowager has been appointed as the ruling Jinwu, and he is in a high position in Jiuqing before he is thirty years old.
Alas.
I really don't know if we are the Liu clan or he is the Liu clan, it's really more human than human, and it's infuriating. ”
Even if Zhi Jinwu is among the Jiuqing, he also belongs to the category of high power, basically the emperor's cronies, who can not only inspect the three assistants, but also enter the palace to investigate, have a lot of military power, and even have judicial power, and can judge some cases alone.
Who can not envy the promotion of Zhijingo before the age of thirty?
Another young man sat up, spit out the grass stems and leaves in his mouth, and said yin and yang: "This world is not Liu's, nor Luo's, it is clearly a relative's."
Hey.
The most prominent of each dynasty are the queen mother's family and the queen's family.
Luo Wenqi is the quasi-brother-in-law of the Queen Mother, and the position of Jiuqing, who controls the strength of the three auxiliary forces and the palace guards, must be left to his own people.
We say that it is the Liu clan, but it has long been gone without even the Marquis Lie, and they are just some commoners.
If you should be convinced, you must be convinced. ”
In the Han Dynasty, except for the era when the princes and kings had just been founded, the most prominent in the rest of the eras were never clan relatives, the local Jin Ling princes were the most valuable, and the relatives of the queen mother in the court were the most prominent.
The courtiers would rather use the crown prince to brush their prestige than choose to use their relatives' family to brush their prestige, which is the prestige of their relatives' families.
Hearing this, the teenagers lying on the ground sat up one after another and talked about the things that came from Chang'an, and a young man dressed in black said: "I heard that the Queen Mother is the best in the world, and the Queen Mother's sister is not far behind.
Luo Wenqi married a beautiful lady and was promoted to Zhijinwu, why can't this good thing fall on me? ”
Sitting on the very edge, a young man with a heroic appearance smiled when he heard this: "People are genuine Luo's sons, and they are Luo's sons who can be allowed to be born by Luo's family, and they must have extraordinary talents."
Compared with family background, ability, and anything else, don't think about it. ”
Hearing this ridicule, the black-clothed young man rolled his eyes and said, "Liu Xiu, didn't you always say that if you are an official, you will be the ruling Jinwu?"
Now that Jin Wu is the son of the Luo family, are you going to fight for it?
And not to mention the queen mother's sister, just the Yin noble girl you have been thinking about, as long as you can marry her, I will definitely prepare a big gift for you. ”
These words are full of ridicule, Liu Xiu's family background belongs to the bottom of the Liu clan.
It can be said that it is worse than Emperor Xiaoshao back then, after all, Emperor Xiaoshao has at least been valued by the clan, and Liu Xiu has not yet had the learning ability of Emperor Xiaoshao.
The Yin family is a wealthy family in Nanyang County, and the descendant daughter of this wealthy family is not something that a commoner like Liu Xiu can marry.
As for a high-ranking official like Ji Jinwu, don't even think about it.
There are countless relatives of the Liu clan in the entire Nanyang County, and there are basically no people who can do Jinwu, and this official position is basically monopolized by relatives and cool officials.
Hearing everyone's laughter, Liu Xiu didn't feel too much frustration, but said with a smile: "What you said today has been written down for you, and when I do it and marry Yin Lihua, I will definitely make you bleed hard." ”
Hearing Liu Xiu's answer, everyone immediately roared, but from the bottom of their hearts, they were not surprised.
Liu Xiu has a reputation for being stable and generous since he was a child, but the evaluation of him in the clan is "generous and ambitious, and he is cautious in this strategy", that is, although Liu Xiu has a steady temperament, he is very assertive, and his stability is cautious after careful consideration.
After making a fuss, the black-clothed young man said mysteriously: "Do you know why you chose Liu Chen for the matter of showing off talents in the last month clan?" ”
When everyone heard this, they immediately gathered around, that is a show talent, the most authentic way to get out, Liu Chen has not returned to the clan for several years, and even before anyone arrived, he directly took away the quota of show talent, and now that he sees a melon, who can not be curious?
Liu Xiu also came around, only to hear the black-clothed young man whisper: "You should know that Liu Chen went to Zhaocheng to study a few years ago."
It was a great success.
Not only did he enter the Luo's School Palace and become a famous student, but he also became famous among the students, and even got the attention of a great Confucian, and accepted him as a personal disciple, and his future was simply limitless.
With a potential disciple like him, the clan naturally has to be vigorously cultivated, and maybe there will be a chance to relist the marquis for the clan! ”
Everyone was amazed when they heard it, and then they were amazed and amazed, it was really unusual to be famous in the Luo's Academy.
That's the first in the world above Taixue!
Included in the list, the school palace is famous, they don't dare to think of these, they didn't expect someone in their own clan to do it.
A young man in yellow dressed in clothes similar to Liu Xiu sighed: "If today, if a commoner like us wants to be an official, it is too difficult for the power of the clan to be counted on, and we must worship under the great Confucian master."
If you want to become an official in peace, then you should worship under the hundred masters and learn a skill, but if you want to go to the position of the three princes, you must always be proficient in the study of Confucianism.
If you can enter the Luo's School Palace or the Taishang School Palace, then the future is bright.
The good boy is ambitious in all directions, and when he goes back today, he will find his father to resign and go to Zhaocheng to study. ”
"Are you serious?"
Study tours are not an easy task, especially in these times when they are gradually starting to become chaotic, and scholars are likely to die on the road.
After all, even those wealthy families who travel with escorts have their children who died at the hands of bandits.
Ordinary scholars don't have extra money to hire guards, which can be said to be very difficult.
Liu Xiu sat next to him, looking at the clouds in the sky, a little silent, if his father hadn't died early, although a county order could not say how much it could support him, it would have been much smoother than now.
Going to Zhaocheng to study this kind of thing, he naturally wanted to go, looking down at the calluses in his hands.
Although he doesn't like to make friends with heroes like his brother, he has his own strategy.
Staying in this township, wanting to be a ruling Jinwu and marrying Yin Lihua can only be a dream.
Thinking of the scenery he once saw in Chang'an, thinking of that beautiful girl, Liu Xiu, a person who has always planned and then moved, also has some impulses, "Stay in this countryside, spend her life in farming, and when she marries a nobleman, when she is old, will she regret it for the rest of her life?" ”
Shojo.
May I?
————
Shang Xing Taixue, looking at the impetuousness of all beings, sighed and said: "I am a young man, my family is poor, the world is in chaos, and I went to study for two thousand miles."
The companions who entered Zhaocheng were all embroidered, rich and magnificent, and the robes and clothes were in the middle, and there was no envy, why not?
Although I am poor, I have great ambitions, have a strategic mind, live in the countryside, and also read the hall of Zhu Zi, with the great wish of holding Jinwu, so I have today.
You are too educated, you come and go to Confucianism, or relatives and nobles, or children of Scholars, and the future is bright, why do you learn from the size. ”
Shame on all beings. ——"The Book of the Later Han Dynasty: Guangwu Benji"
