Chapter 122: The Difficulty of the Imperial Examination

Seeing his younger brother and Lin, he was still puzzled, and after sighing faintly, He Shen explained.

"It's here, the township test, after passing the test, with the identity of a lifter, you can be an official, and since then it has nothing to do with the word white."

"Brother, tell me, official. What does this thing have to do with ordinary people?

"Poor and sour talent, if you want to be an official, it's very difficult..."

“…………”

Hearing this, He Lin suddenly realized and completely understood, what the hell is going on...

This is really, in response to that sentence, the circle of readers is the dirtiest.

After completely washing his brother and Lin's head, He Shen called the old housekeeper He Zhong and asked him to help him get some books.

“…………”

The old butler and Zhong are stewards who have served their masters for two generations, and they are very strong in both ability and means.

And the slaves brought over by the two brothers, He Shen and He Lin, were also capable people, and they gave an order, but in just two moments, they used one of Zhuangzi's existing houses to set up a small primary school.

At the same time, truckloads of military books, Confucian books, and necessary paper, ink, pens, and inkstones were all transported from Zhuangwai as the daily study needs of the two brothers.

Subsequently, He Shen spent another sum of money to bring back the examination papers of the Jingcheng and Rural Examination in the past ten years.

With these few things, the township test or something is trivial.

To tell the truth, He Shen doesn't have to bribe the examiner, just Niu Hulu. The three words Niu Hulu in front of He Shen are enough for the examiner to treat his exam papers normally.

As long as the examiner treats his exam papers normally, He Shen has the confidence to pass the township exam and get the name of a person.

“……………”

In fact, not only He Shen, but any talent can pass the township test and become a high-ranking master.

But there is also a premise, that is, the examiner must be fair and impartial, and it must be fair.

However, this "fairness" is a big joke when put in the township test.

Whole. There are more than 300,000 talents participating in the township examination, but the number of people who can be lifted is only 2,000 or 3,000.

One percent acceptance rate......

One hundred people, as long as one person, the remaining ninety-nine are all eliminated...

If you really learn according to the real material, the children of the wealthy families will be brushed down, and the ordinary talents will become officials...

Then this examiner, even if he is dead, it is light to be divided by five horses, and the most likely thing is to scrape with a thousand knives...

He Shen, who studied himself in the school, found that the popularity in the school was too deserted after a period of self-study...

After all, the two of them were sitting in such a huge school, empty...

He Shen thought about it for a while, and then instructed the old housekeeper Hezhong to let him talk to those children who had been slaves for generations, and the school was enrolled.

At the same time, the news that the Zhuangzi Academy was recruiting apprentices between the ages of ten and fifteen was like a strong wind, blowing through the entire Zhuangzi.

caused a lot of internal uproar among the loyal servants who left the Hefu with the two brothers He Shen and He Lin.

“…………”

The children of the two brothers He Shen and He Lin who followed were naturally willing to follow in the footsteps of their little masters.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, the best time for your children to develop a relationship with their two little masters...

Besides, it is also good to be able to read and write, and to learn some skills.

In addition, He Shen also spent a lot of money to recall the hundreds of government soldiers who had been swept out by Mrs. Hua because they didn't work.

These government soldiers are all descendants of the generals of the two generations of the army, they are basically loyal to the government, and they are the elite who have seen blood!

In Niu Hulu. During the Changbao period, that is, when Heshen's father was still there, they became the guardians of Hefu.

At the same time, these people, who voluntarily changed from military to slave, have always been a very special group of existences in Hefu.

It's just that with the death of Niu Hulu Oroer and Niu Hulu Changbao's two generations of Eight Banners, and the Qing Dynasty became more and more stable and smooth, when the use of force was very few, these government soldiers lost their use value.

The hundreds of government soldiers who have lost their foothold value have immediately become a little difficult in this day.

In the end, he was thrown out of the mansion by Hua Lao Taijun, He Rong and other masters, like sweeping garbage.

“…………”

The most ironic thing is not the ruthlessness of the masters such as Hua Lao Taijun and He Rong, but the He Mansion that started with martial arts, but at this moment, the word Wu was thrown into a dusty place to eat ashes.

If, in the Jiangmen family, there is not even a person who knows martial arts, then how can they deal with themselves in the future......

“………”

He Shen attaches great importance to these government soldiers.

Not only because they are loyal, but also because they are strong and murderous, as long as they are effectively organized, they are a small army that should not be underestimated.

The emperor takes turns, and he will come to my house next year, as the soul of the Demon Ancestor, and in his bones, he naturally has the idea of rebellion.

In this era when imperial power is greater than everything and one person is in charge of one country, there is a large number of elite private troops in hand, and no matter whether you advance or retreat, you can be calm.

There are soldiers in hand, and no one is afraid.

“…………”

Therefore, after accepting these hundreds of government soldiers with extremely high military literacy, He Shen used this as a seed, spent tens of thousands of taels of silver, and single-handedly established a private army of 3,000 of his own!

“…………”

On the side of the two brothers He Shen and He Lin, they have just entered the right track, and on the side of Hua Lao Taijun, they have started to make trouble again.

The two brothers, He Shen and He Lin, lived in Zhuangzi outside the capital for most of the year, which caused great dissatisfaction in the hearts of Mrs. Hua and the old grandmother.

“………”

On this day, because there was something to do, He Shen hurriedly entered. Jing, but before he entered the gate of the capital, he was blocked by his second uncle Chang Rong, saying that the old lady was invited.

"I said, for such a trivial matter as the second uncle, you can just call a servant over and spread the word, why did you come here in person......"

"Second uncle, you don't want to cut meat from your nephew and me again, you are not ashamed!"

He Shen glanced at this stinky and shameless uncle, and said angrily.

"Hey, my eldest nephew, don't you bury my uncle and me anymore?"

"How dare I do it right under your nose..."

Hearing He Shen's hard buttoned hat, Chang Rong was startled, and immediately looked around.

Seeing that everyone around him looked over, a layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead, and he said cautiously with a smile.

“……………”

"Hopefully, you can be honest, after all, even if it's easy to clean you up, it will be a waste of time."

"And my time is too precious to be wasted on you."

He Shen looked at it, and Chang Rong, the second uncle who seemed to be honest, was still not very relieved, and continued to knock.

And Chang Rong, although on the surface, looks honest.

But, in fact, just by looking at the light of jealousy hidden in the corners of his eyes, you can tell what he really thinks.

“………”

On Heshen's side, he naturally also discovered the unwillingness hidden in the heart of the second uncle Chang Rong, but he had the confidence to suppress this hurtful snake!

To be honest, now, when the power has been formed, the place of Hefu is no longer a man-eating tiger and wolf den for Heshen.

However, even if Hefu is not a tiger and wolf den, Heshen is not willing to stay longer, after all, it is a gathering place for a group of people he hates!

That's right, the current Hefu is, for him, the residence of a group of nasty ghosts.

Every time I come back, He Shen has a different feeling.

He was keenly aware of some subtle changes within the Hefu.

And within the Harmony Mansion, the attitude of the slaves and maids towards him has also begun to change slightly.

Obviously, a few years ago, after He Shen put Hua Lao Taijun and second uncle Chang Rong together, Hua Lao Taijun and second uncle Chang Rong ruthlessly rectified the power structure of the Hefu.

However, He Shen has no intention of getting to the bottom of it.

With 3,000 private troops, he firmly controlled the manor, which was one acre and three points of land, as well as several nearby mountains, so he didn't bother to pay attention to other changes in the mansion.

asked a lot, Hua Lao Taijun and the second uncle Chang Rong, they thought that he had thoughts about the power of the Hefu...

This will lead to a series of troubles, so why bother?

On the side of Mrs. Hua and Second Uncle Chang Rong, I don't know if they have been taught a few lessons before, or if they are busy with infighting, fighting for the power of Hefu, but they have not tossed blindly along the way.

"The young master is here!"

Under the leadership of the second uncle Chang Rong, He Shen quickly rushed to Jiale Hall, and a group of maids outside the door saw this and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"I've seen Mrs. Hua, Mrs. Hua is fine!"

He Shen first saluted Mrs. Hua according to the number of etiquette, and then he looked around, and found that after this Jiale Hall changed owners, it became more and more magnificent......

The dozen or so formal ornaments in the hall seem to be one in a thousand old objects, which are enough treasures to be handed down to the world, and now they are all placed here, which is simply extravagant to the extreme!

This old lady is in her seventies, and she is still so good at enjoying ......

"Grandson, what's the matter with you, why don't I take the initiative to send someone to invite you, you don't come to say hello, the etiquette has been learned in the dog's belly..."

As soon as she saw He Shen, Mrs. Hua's face sank, not only did she not tell He Shen to get up, but she fired directly.

Seeing this, He Shen didn't care, got up directly, found a chair, and sat down by himself.

After all these years, who doesn't know whom...

You old man, you don't have to bother here...

Looking at He Shen, who looked indifferent, Mrs. Hua's face became more and more ugly, and she said angrily.

"Shen'er, Lin'er, as the eldest grandson of the serious lineage of Hefu, why do you always stay outside, is this appropriate?"
