Zhuangyuan Street, Hailing County.

Xu He, who had just returned from visiting his teacher in Yangzhou, brought Li Sikui back again.

Li Zhijie found out that during the time when his son was with Xu He, his health was better, and his knowledge had grown a lot.

When he took the school examination for his son's knowledge, his son not only answered the questions fluently as before, but also often debated with himself, the old man, on a single question.

The key is that in the debate between father and son, although Li Sikui is still very naïve because of his young age, he has a lot of ideas, but his concept of some things makes him, a two-list jinshi, feel quite fresh.

Don't think that in ancient times, everything was done in the old ways, the intellectuals of every era actually had a strong desire to explore the unknown world.

It's just that, at a certain time, this desire for exploration has been suppressed from all sides and has become conservative.

Even if it's conservative, that's the way to explore the world becomes conservative.

Otherwise, even in the evening sunshine, why is there a big bull like Gong Zizhen who writes the famous sentence "I advise the heavenly prince to be vigorous"?

Therefore, Li Zhijie, who is obviously Xu He's teacher, finally sent his son to Xu He to study.

At this time, Xu He was taking Li Sikui and Zhang Sanrang to rummage for rubble in a deserted house somewhere in Xujia Village.

Xie Liangcai looked at one of the two and the three of them speechlessly: "Liangsheng, you are not going to try it in the coming year, but you take two little babies to catch insects every day, isn't this not a bad job!" ”

Xu He smiled and said: "Brother Defu, you don't understand, this is called edutainment!" ”

"Hey, catch a bug, and you can still be involved in edutainment? Come, tell me, how do you have fun and educate? Xie Liangcai was also interested, and he didn't have the slightest shelf to lift people, and he also learned to squat down with the three of them, and rummaged through the rubble boringly.

Xu He said to Li Sikui: "Sikui, you tell your senior brother about crickets!" ”

When Li Sikui heard this, he looked like a little adult, and said with his head held high: "The crickets are in the hall, and the years are not enough." I am not happy today, the sun and the moon are gone. There is no great health, and the job is homeless. There is no waste of happiness, and the good man Qu Qu. ”

Xie Liangcai was surprised when he heard this, this poem is from "The Book of Songs, National Style, Tang Feng", the full text has three paragraphs, which probably means that the weather is getting colder, and the year is almost twilight, time passes, a year in a hurry, and you must cherish every day!

Tut-tut, these three people are obviously sweating a lot, but they keep saying that they want to cherish time?

It's very discordant.

Xie Liangcai is still unconvinced, Li Sikui is a genius child, which does not explain the problem.

He looked at the little fat man Zhang Sanrang: "Sanrang, come, you can talk about it too!" ”

Compared with Li Sikui, the little fat man is really weaker.

He pouted his little buttocks, squatted on the ground and thought for a long time, and finally said: "July is in the wild, August is in Yu, September is in the household, and the crickets are under my bed in October!" ”

Xie Liangcai was completely stupid.

Gifted children or something, not representative.

But this little fat man can even recite "The Book of Songs, Quiet Wind, July", which is ......

This kid is about to be enlightened for a year with his own brother.

Remnant ......

He looked at Xu He with a strange expression: "Liangsheng, if I want to have a son in the future, I will definitely let you go here, so it's decided!" ”

Xu He is one head and two big, okay, I'm afraid my family will become a nursery school in the future?

At this time, Xu He was tired after squatting for a long time, so he let the two little babies Ding Ze take them, and continued to turn over the insects, while he and Brother Defu sat down on the steps of this house without caring about their image at all.

"Liangsheng, you asked someone to go to Songjiang, just rely on this little bug to make Brother Shen Xuan turn against him?"

Xu He smiled: "One hand of idle chess, what is the matter of trying?" ”

Xie Liangcai shook his head: "Where did you find that Zhou Bi, who is not only both civil and military, but also understands the Worm Sutra!" ”

Xu He told him how he met Zhou Ju, and Zhou Ju told him about his brother's introduction.

Xie Liangcai sighed: "It is said that there are sages in the mountains, and it is true, I have never seen Zhou Ju, but a talent like Zhou Bi, let him go out to exercise for two years, and he will definitely make great achievements in the future!" ”

Speaking of this, he shook his head with a smile and said: "But it seems that it is better to follow you than to follow others, if you win the apricot list in the next year, he may be able to follow you to the sky in the future!" ”

"That's right!" Xie Liangcai said, "I heard that the case of Deng Qing, the superintendent of Henan Province, has been settled?" ”

Xu He nodded, the news came back from Xu Dai not long ago.

It is said that Deng Qing was dismissed from office and deprived of his post, because he colluded with the school bookstore to cheat in the small bureau, and framed people to try to raise people, the court decreed, Deng Qing seized his post, and immediately sent him to the Jingshi Jinyi Wei Zhao Prison, and asked to be beheaded after the autumn of the next year.

Deng Qing's fate was very miserable, and fraud in the imperial examination has always been the most taboo thing for the emperor.

Officials are corrupt, and Emperor Zheng may not take it to heart.

But fraud will certainly not be tolerated.

The imperial examination for scholars is a major event of the imperial court, which is related to the credibility of the country and the exchange of blood in the imperial court.

If the scientific examination is wantonly sabotaged along the way, then wouldn't the court officials be able to appoint private individuals through the imperial examination?

Over time, isn't the imperial court just a hall of words for a certain big man?

This is absolutely unbearable for an emperor, especially an emperor who does not go to court all the year round and hides in the deep palace to cultivate.

"Deng Qing's family must have been hidden by the Shen family, otherwise Deng Qing would never have such hard bones, and he would not admit it!" Xie Liangcai said.

Xu He nodded: "I have asked people to investigate this matter, hoping to find some clues!" ”

Xie Liangcai frowned and asked, "What if you find out?" Do you still want to save Deng Qing's family? ”

"Deng Qing took the blame for the tiger, but the Shen family accused me of being at large, how can there be such a reason, I don't know why the imperial court has always let Shen Han go many times, but I believe that if Deng Qingken opens his mouth to identify who instructed this matter, the court can no longer pretend to be deaf and blind, and pick soft persimmons to pinch!"

Xie Liangcai nodded and asked, "What about Wang Chong?" I heard that this person was robbed of his clothes by Wang Liangchen, and now he has become an ordinary person with no merit, ...... over there"

Xu He smiled slightly: "Wang Chong." His family's affairs are not only about me, look at it, even if I don't make a move, there are people who open their eyes for me! ”

"You, you mean those water bandits in Huzhou?" Xie Liangcai's eyes lit up.

Xu He smiled slightly: "If his Wang family didn't harbor the Japanese robbers, then everything is easy to say, but if he does something that people and gods are angry about, hum ......."

Just as Xu He and Xie Liangcai were talking, in front of a family in Guan Yuanfang, Changshu County, several big men were shouting in front of a family of eunuchs surnamed Wang with wonton stalls!
