Chapter 143: The Imperial Examination is Coming

"Books? What book? Who wrote what book? Gao Yu heard his son talking to himself and asked along the topic.

"Of course, it's a book from heaven, and as for who wrote it, I also want to know." Gao Fugui shook his head, he really didn't know who the author of these two books was, he guessed that it was Xuan Mo at the time, and he went to ask the bookstall shopkeeper, but the shopkeeper didn't say a word.

However, as soon as Gao Yu heard the 'Book of Heaven', the emotions that had eased down suddenly rose again, "You son of a son still mentions the 'Book of Heaven', do you want to be angry with your father?" ”

This time, Gao Fugui suppressed his anger and said patiently: "Father, this 'Book of Heaven' is really a good thing. As he spoke, he took out two more books from the cabinet, which were "Economic Theory" and "Political Theory".

"Look at this"

"Good stuff?" Before Gao Fugui could finish speaking, Gao Yu snatched one of them, turned one of the pages, and said angrily: "You said it was a good thing, right?" I have to ask you, does this have anything to do with the imperial examination? Can you win the imperial examination in one fell swoop? ”

Gao Fugui replied seriously: "Maybe I can!" ”

"Can you?" Gao Yu wanted to smash the book down, but he still suppressed his anger and glanced at the written "Political Lecture", "Okay, you have a long ability, this book is called "Political Lecture", I want to ask you, what is politics? ”

Gao Fugui listened, waved his hand, and replied without thinking: "Politician, the behavior of the dynasty to govern the country." ”

"How is it governed?"

Gao Yu's face is happy, how to govern? Hehe! The "Political Lectures" is very detailed and wonderful, and it is definitely a holy word, but he has read it more than a hundred times, and he can't put it down every time.

Why can't you answer? He could read it when he closed his eyes.

"The ruler is the act of the people, and the people elect representatives to govern the country on behalf of the country, and the people are the masters of the country."

"You, you" Before Gao Fugui finished speaking, Gao Yu directly smashed the book on Gao Fugui's head, "Son, son" He couldn't bear it anymore and fainted again.

The people elect the power of the country? The people are in charge? This is the rhythm of the eighteenth generation of the ancestors who are angry.

"Isn't it? Did I answer outrageously? It shouldn't be! Could it be that I am not good at my studies, well, it must be like this. ”

So, Gao Fugui made up his mind that he must read these two books a hundred more times.

A few days later, the imperial court announced that the imperial examination, which had been delayed due to the eastern tour, would begin in half a month. This news immediately made the students nervous, the imperial examination was coming, and the opportunity to decide the fate of their lives was coming.

At that time, the prevalence of paper gave many poor students and even the sons of farmers the opportunity to study, coupled with the rise of private learning, many students emerged.

The imperial court set up a new imperial examination superintendent, which was responsible for the holding of the imperial examination and the supervision of fraud.

From the data released by the imperial examination supervisor, it can be seen that the number of people who signed up for the imperial examination this time is tens of thousands, which can be described as popular, and it also shows the students' eagerness to pursue fame and fortune.

In Chang'an Township, Li Zhao came back, and he immediately found Xiao He and wanted to ask about the sales of paper and three books.

You must know that the imperial examination is about to begin, and the sales of paper will definitely go up a notch, and he is very concerned about the revenue of paper.

For the time being, paper is the largest income in Chang'an Township, and he must understand it clearly, as well as three books, and of course he also wants to know how popular it is in Xianyang.

Just when he found Xiao When, he found that Xiao He was holding a bamboo roll and watching it with relish, and when he walked in, he was angry, this son was actually reading Shang Zhoushu, didn't he deliberately go against him? Last time, he severely criticized him and threw away his books, not allowed to read these useless things, how did this son get such a book?

It is very likely that he also signed up for the imperial examination.

"Have you signed up for the imperial examination?" Li Zhao asked tentatively.

When Xiao He saw the young master, he hurriedly saluted, but his mouth was slurching, and he didn't know how to speak.

Why didn't Li Zhao know that he must have signed up, and sighed secretly for a while: What a wolf that can't be raised! This son still wants to escape from Chang'an Township and is bent on the imperial examination.

Of course, he has a way to get rid of Xiao He's heart and better serve himself.

Well! Since he likes to read classics, let him read enough, and read his own books, isn't it also for himself?

So, he snatched the "Book of Shang and Zhou" from Xiao He's hand, tore it to pieces in three or five strokes, and then went to the back room to get "Economics" and "Political Lectures", and said in a flicker: "If you want the young master of the imperial examination, I won't stop you, but you also have to choose the right book, look!" Just reading these two books will definitely make you the first place in the imperial examination. ”

Hey! As long as Xiao He is allowed to read these two books, it is impossible for him to be shortlisted for the imperial examination, and if he fails at that time, won't he be able to serve him obediently?

Li Zhao snickered in his heart.

Xiao He had no choice but to take the second book.

In fact, he has read these two books many times, and he can almost memorize them, but the young master has said so, what can he say? I had to pick up the second book and read it.

The occurrence of this scene was seen by Li Jinong, he looked at Li Zhao with some anger, and really wanted to step forward and give him two slaps directly.

Such a nephew really ruined the future of Chang'an Township!

In fact, the "Book of Shang and Zhou" in Xiao He's hand was obtained by him, and the name of the report was also reported by him, his idea is very simple, Chang'an Township has developed so far, and there can be no one in the court.

Although his nephew is the chief general, he is always a person in the army, and there are people in the army who are not good, but he is only a military attachΓ©, and there can be no shortage of civilian officials.

Xiao He is a shrewd person, and he is also a scholar, so Li Jinong hopes that Xiao He can gain a reputation for Chang'an Township and become an official in the court.

But never thought that his nephew would be so disgusted with Xiao He's imperial examination, and took away the book in his hand and forced him to read the second book?

Li Jinong's anger is not in one place, he has read these two books, they are messy, they do not meet the needs of the imperial court at all, they are just miscellaneous books.

"Zhao'er, the name of the report was reported by my uncle, and the classics were made by me, don't blame Xiao He." Li Jinong walked over directly, suppressed his anger, and said calmly.

"Uncle thinks that Xiao He's imperial examination is okay."

Although his uncle is his father, he is not his own child, and he has always had some psychological obstacles, and Li Jinong is not good at reprimanding Li Zhao loudly.

Li Zhao was also filial, and he didn't blame his uncle, so he arched his hand and said, "Uncle, Zhao didn't object to Xiao He's imperial examination!" I just recommended him to read these two books. ”

Li Zhao pretended to be very considerate of Xiao He.

Li Jinong shook his head and secretly said that his nephew's mouth was wrong! He obviously didn't want Xiao He to take the imperial examination, but he said it so high-soundingly.

Also, do you recommend reading two books? Who doesn't know that these two books are miscellaneous books, if you really don't object to Xiao He's imperial examination, how can you recommend the second book? This is a deliberate attempt that Xiao He will not be able to gain fame in the examination.

He Li Jinong is not stupid enough to be so stupid, how can he not see it?

The mouth is not right!

This kid is too much like his father.

Yes, this kid is very much like his father, but he is so wrong-mouthed.

That year, that day, Li Jinong still remembers that the eldest brother Li Nian rescued a woman who was about to commit suicide in a wilderness, and placed her at home, perhaps because of the long-term love, the eldest brother had a love for the woman, and he knew the eldest brother's temperament, so he asked the eldest brother if he liked the woman, if he liked it, he would marry, but the eldest brother denied it, but who knows, he likes the woman, otherwise how can he be attentive and run to others every day?

Still.
