Xiaolan's eyes widened and asked, "Is this okay?" But? ”

"At night, no one is allowed on the street."

Xia Qingqing said, "This is what I haven't thought about anymore." ”

"So I don't want to talk to you about this matter, if it can really be done, I have to go to the palace and ask the emperor to see if I can postpone the curfew."

"Or half a month after the release of the imperial examination, the curfew in the capital will be lifted."

"Okay, for now, it's useless for you and me to talk more, so quickly load a few for me. Box of snacks, a few more bracelets, I'm going to visit Xing Guogong. ”

Xiaolan asked, "Are you going to visit the White Jade Hall?" ”

Xia Qingqing patted his head before he reacted, "By the way, I forgot that tomorrow is the first day of the imperial examination." Right now, Xing Guogong must be in Baiyutang. ”

Midori said, "yes, yes." ”

Xia Qingqing muttered to herself, "I shouldn't know, that's okay, then you don't need to bring anything." ”

"This time, it's not me begging him, it's him begging me."

Her old god was talking something, and Little Blue and Little Green couldn't understand her words at all.

A group of people took their things and got into the carriage, and after a while, the creaking carriage stopped again and stopped at the gate of Baiyutang, where Lin Cai and Lin Qian were still waiting beside them.

The two men stepped forward respectfully and said, "See the county lord." ”

Xia Qingqing said, "Oh, you two are really too polite, how many times have you said it, you have to be low-key, you have to be low-key, we should not make a big show at this time." ”

Lin Cai said in a timely manner, "I didn't let many people tell me, but when the county lord was about to arrive, Lin Cai and I were waiting at the door." ”

The county lord asked again, "What about Xing Guogong?" ”

Lin Qian hurried to please his face and said, "Xing Guogong is in the private room on the second floor, and he said that he also wants to listen to those great Confucian lectures." ”

"It's just that I felt bored when I heard it halfway, so I wanted to come out to take a breath, and I went to the second floor as soon as I slipped through the smoke."

Xia Qingqing listened to him and couldn't help but feel funny.

Xing Guogong is indeed a third-class jinshi who passed the imperial examination, but his current style of conduct is also different from that at that time.

Besides, these lectures taught by the great Confucian are all familiar to him, and listening to them repeatedly is sometimes a good thing, some memories, and sometimes not necessarily a good thing.

Isn't this what he's tired of hearing right now? Maybe it's because the great Confucian doesn't speak well, or maybe those students are too fond of asking questions.

Xia Qingqing smiled silently, turned around and went upstairs.

As soon as he entered the room, he said, "The little girl Qingqing meets Xing Guogong," he was on the second floor, drinking tea.

The windows of the private room were open, and you could see the traffic downstairs.

Xing Guogong hurriedly said, "Qingqing, the county lord, please get up." ”

"Tomorrow is the time for the scientific examination, the old man is not at ease, he always feels that he has walked ninety-nine steps, don't fall on his heels in this hundredth step, so he rushed to Baiyutang to hope, you won't feel disturbed."

Xia Qingqing said, "What are you talking about?" ”

"As long as you are willing to come to Baiyutang, the little girl will naturally welcome you."

"It's just that I don't dare to underestimate this spring cold, this window is still closed well, if it is really cold, then it is Bai Yutang's fault."

Xing Guogong said, "Alas, it's okay, the old man is worried about their scientific expedition tomorrow." ”

"One is watching these small traders upstairs."

"You say that you live a lifetime, it's nothing more than a happy river."

Xia Qingqing said, "Life in the world, either it is peace and joy, or it is hard work to see what kind of result they want." ”

Xing Guogong also said, "Yes, this group of students has a heart to serve the country, and if they can really do a few practical things for the people in the future, it will be a good thing." ”

"I'm afraid that when they are in high positions of power, they will also lose their hearts."

Xia Qingqing said, "Well, I can't see it yet, and you're worried too early." ”

"After all, it's something that didn't happen, and it's not good to worry too much, after all, if you want to add to the crime, why bother?"

"You think about them in the bad now, if they know, they will inevitably have some loss in their hearts."

Gonggong Xing said, "Alas, that's what the old man said, and the county lord doesn't have to take it to heart, that's right." ”

"Do you have anything else to do today besides coming to see these students?"

Xia Qingqing immediately said, "I heard that every time the list is released. ”

"Nine times out of ten, there are unsatisfactory students, and some of these students who fail the list have high confidence, thinking that it is okay to study for another four years and then take the imperial examination.

There are also some students who have been sluggish since then, doing nothing, and have more mentality in their lives, and extreme people are directly thrown into the moat. ”

Xing Guogong nodded and said, "Yes, these students are arrogant, and they suddenly have a big heel, it is inevitable." I couldn't think about it for a while. ”

"The emperor will also send people to strengthen patrols around this moat."

"It's a pity that those people want to seek their own death, and they can't stop it."

Xia Qingqing continued, not all of them want to die, those people jumped into the water, in case there are people who want to live! “

"Will definitely be shouting for help."

"If it's lucky, someone happens to be nearby and saves it, but if it's unlucky, I'm afraid it's just a death.

Xing Guogong also nodded and said, "That's the case, so it can't help but make people feel more sad." ”

"After reading the book for so many years, there are indeed many people who are on the tip of the horns."

"Sometimes when I think about it, I shouldn't be glad that such a person didn't become an official, but I should be glad that such a person became an official."

"Such a person has only one tendon, and he is afraid that those dark things in the officialdom will never be seen."

"When the time comes, I will be regarded as an enemy, and I don't know when I will die in someone else's trap, and I don't know."

"Alas, these people are regrettable after all."

"They are all good talents of the country, if you can really think about it, you may not have a way out in the future."

Xia Qingqing nodded and said, "It was because I thought of this that I came to see Xing Guogong." ”

"Oh, did you come for them on purpose?"

Xia Qingqing nodded, "That's what I think. Since they are looking for death and life, it must be because people are not happy in life, so what if life is satisfactory? ”

"In the second half of the month, every evening every day, people on the street crowded one after another."

"Well, together as lively as the day, with many flowers on the river, they all like a good life."

"Some more cabaret performances, lion dances and stuff like that."

"As long as the atmosphere comes up, it will definitely dilute the loneliness of some of these people, and then hold a large number of schools around the capital."

"Wouldn't it be nice to make these students feel that they still have a place to play?"

"What you said is also a solution, but I'm worried that these students think very highly of themselves."

"I'm afraid it's not so easy to put down my body and go to the elementary school hall to teach those babbling children."

Xia Qingqing continued earnestly, "If that's the case, it's no wonder that we're not going to blame. ”

"After all, the road, you still have to go by yourself, we gave him a more convenient road, he doesn't want to take it himself, so he has to bear it, so the burden it brings."

"After all, if they are willing to go to the primary school to be a teacher, we will take care of them three meals a day."

"In addition, he also cares about the cost of books, as long as he is willing to warm his books after completing the daily teaching course, he will warm his books."

"Even if I go out to do odd jobs, I naturally won't stop it, it's just that I'm willing to find something for them to do."

The more Xing Guogong listened, the more he felt that this matter was reliable, "Besides, didn't you adopt a group of orphans in the capital?" “

Those kids are also old enough to go to school. ”

"Even if you want to find additional teachers, then you have to ask for money, you might as well spend money to keep this group of students."

"If you can stay for a long time, you can, naturally, if you stay for a few months and then go back, it's not impossible."

"After all, since these people can go to Beijing to catch the exam, they naturally have two brushes."

"It's better than you invite those old goblins."

Xia Qingqing also nodded and said, "What Xing Guogong said is unreasonable, it is like this, it is better to invite them than to invite those teachers who are forty or fifty years old." ”

"Well, the children in the orphanage are too young, and if the teachers are too old, they will naturally feel that there is no sense of communication."

"When the time comes, it will affect the mentality of going to school, and it will be troublesome."

"Speaking of these children, I have high hopes."

"Even if you can really produce a champion in the future, wouldn't that be the best thing?"

Xia Qingqing couldn't help laughing, "From the fact that my Xia family has a champion, I'm afraid that the ancestors of the Xia family will wake up laughing, right?" ”

Xing Guogong couldn't look down on her the most, so he laughed angrily and said, "You, in the first few lives of your Xia family, there are not many people who have not been able to read. ”

"You, just your father, can also say a few words."

Wu: "Look at your grandfather's complete man. ”

"His brain is broken, and it's not as big as a garlic clove."

Xia Qingqing looked at Xing Guogong and lowered his grandfather to the dust, and couldn't help but want to earn back some face for his grandfather.

said, "I, I know the Four Books and the Five Classics." ”

"And I will know what my daughter's family can't do, and I can understand what my daughter's family doesn't understand."

Xing Guogong said, "Yes, your family will also have a door where you can shine." ”

"Then you can really raise a champion, that will be beneficial to your Xia family."

"After all, this champion has been eating and drinking in your house for so many years, you have to eat, drink, drink, wear and wear."

"I have to ask the teacher to teach me, the manpower and material resources of this are unimaginable."
