But the construction of the canal is a good thing that will benefit the present and the future, so what he advocates is that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

This time, he was able to rank first class and become a student, Meng Yue felt that it was not that he wrote too well, but that others wrote too poorly.

He didn't talk in generalities, he started from his personal fate, and the whole article was full of sincere feelings and no skill.

Li Qiao's articles are also full of sincere feelings, no skills.

But Li Qiao's feelings are not for Li Qiao's small family, Li Qiao's feelings are for the entire bottom people of Dasheng.

Li Qiao is now rich, but Li Qiao's sight is not out of the people at the bottom, just by virtue of this, he is convinced by Li Qiao.

He wanted to shout to the Governor and the Governor of the University that the Lord was wise!

"I also followed the train of thought and thought about it, vermicelli has caused a lot of trouble in Yongxing County, and a little vermicelli has caused so many troubles, not to mention the canal."

Li Qiao moved out of the excuse that she had thought of a long time ago.

Dasheng does not have a Grand Canal, so the various drawbacks after the construction of the Grand Canal mentioned in his article seem to others to be his imagination.

He is a farmer, why can he imagine it? And the description has a nose and eyes, as if it has already happened?

To this question, the answer is simple, he has vermicelli.

After the prefect disposed of the county magistrate and the county lieutenant of Yongxing County, notices were posted in the five counties of Hexi Prefecture to set an example for the monkeys.

Years later, the Shengshang's disposal of Sun Zhixian also came down, and Sun Zhixian was demoted to Xuezheng of Yongxing County County, Xuezheng was the Jiupin official, and he was the assistant of the teaching, saying that he was in charge of a group of talents in the county school, but in fact, he was equivalent to a counselor in the university, doing odd work.

Sun Zhi County suddenly became a nine-grade sesame official from a seven-grade Zhi County, and this gap is really happy.

The Ming Prefecture publicized it widely in the five counties, so that the people and officials of the five counties knew the cost of dereliction of duty.

Therefore, although Li Qiao is a farmer, he has also seen some dark sides.

It is not abrupt for him to write such an article.

At this time, Xu Ying came over, he had the same opinion as Meng Yue, and he admired Li Qiao in addition to admiration.

Other candidates who read the article, many people also came over and expressed their admiration while saying hello to Li Qiao.

is not a fool, the heart of the people in Li Qiao's article is full of overflow, with this intention, the governor and the university will point him to the head of the case, then no one can find fault.

What's more, he also wrote about many shortcomings after the construction of the Grand Canal, which many candidates did not expect.

The individual who was secretly happy in their hearts just now was either silent at this time, or cast a look of envy, jealousy and hatred at Li Qiao.

People are really angry compared to people, I originally thought that Li Qiao might lose face this time, but his article will become a model article again!

Then why did you pretend to be nervous before?

Bah!

White Lotus!

But after scolding, their hearts were soon filled with jealousy, and even Zhongsanyuan, although it was a small Sanyuan, it also indicated that Li Qiao, a person who was bound to take off, really began to take off.

Alas!

Chapter 91: Celebration Got the head of the cantilevered beam and the cone of the stabbing strands

Li Qiao observed the reactions of the candidates in the same class and confirmed that the vast majority of people had no objection to him as the head of the case, and finally let go of his heart.

The label of opportunism can be taken off from him.

He was really happy, and went to the largest restaurant in Fucheng to celebrate with Bai Yu Li Dazhong, Xu Ying Shen Hua, Meng Yue and others that day.

After celebrating with his relatives and friends, he invited a group of scholars he had recently met to the restaurant to celebrate, although he was not very close to these people, but in the future these would be his fellow villagers, and a meal would not be a big deal for him.

After the celebration, he and Tao Zhu went to visit the Ming Prefecture with duck goods and snacks.

Last time, the two only carried some tea, but this time Tao Zhu specially made duck snacks, which is their family's signature, and it is even more sincere to give it to the Ming Governor's Mansion.

The Governor is more amiable than ever.

In the examination room that day, the Governor really sweated for Li Qiao, he saw that Li Qiao finished writing but did not hand in the paper, and his heart suddenly stopped, and he felt that Li Qiao might have to be planted this time.

But who knew that Li Qiao gave him a big surprise!

Whether it was the way to save money mentioned in Li Qiao's article, or the various drawbacks that might occur after the canal was repaired, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but applaud.

Li Qiao's brain does not look like a peasant child who is only 21 years old, this intelligence and the future is limitless.

However, August is the township test, the time is tight, the task is heavy, he asked Li Qiao not to be proud, let alone slack, and strive to get the big ~ three ~ yuan also in the bag.

Li Qiao will not slack off, won the little three yuan, this is an honor, but also pressure, there will be more people who pay attention to him in the future.

He had to have the goods in his stomach and couldn't float.

After visiting the Ming Governor's Mansion, Li Qiao and Tao Zhu visited the Xuezheng with duck goods and snacks, and the Xuezheng of Hexi Mansion was surnamed Xing, and he saw Li Qiao and his face was pleasant, and his attitude was similar to that of the Mingzhi Mansion.

Moreover, Master Xuezheng is a food-lover, otherwise he wouldn't have read Zhuang Wen's article and specially summoned Zhuang Wen.

This time, Li Qiao Taozhu came to visit with duck goods and snacks, and the students were very happy.

As soon as the academic and political authorities were happy, they couldn't help but test Li Qiao's homework.

Li Qiao: "......"

Row horn.

Anyway, he has solid basic skills, so he can take the test casually.

However, after coming out of the study government, he still subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, even if the basic skills are solid, no one wants to be tested anytime and anywhere.

This kind of surprise exam is too terrible, with such a thick book of four books, five classics, three histories and three biographies, who can remember every sentence in it all the time?

Fortunately, he had just finished the college exam, which was the most erudite time in his two lives, otherwise, it was very likely that he would not be able to answer.

After going back, he has to work harder, with his current reputation, there will definitely be many people who want to test him in the future, and he can't make a fool of himself.

However, it is also beneficial to be questioned by the University of Science and Technology, and if he answers well, the Lord of the University revealed to him a little unspoken rules when marking the township examination papers.

The local administrative division of Dasheng is that there are many prefectures under a province, and the prefecture where the provincial administrative department is located is called the capital.

The capital is equivalent to the capital of a province, and the examination location of the township examination is in the capital, so the person who marks the township examination is no longer the prefect of each province, but the chief and deputy examiners sent by the imperial court.

There are only two chief examiners and deputy examiners, and the number is too small, so these two examiners will select a few academic officials from the province to assist them in marking the papers.

Xing Xuezheng had been selected before, so he knew a little bit about the focus of the main and deputy examiners when marking the papers.

Whether it is the Emperor Taishang or the current saint, he is very cautious about the appointment of officials, and if Xiucai passes the township test, it is a lift.

Even if you can't pass the test, you have the qualifications to be an official.

Therefore, although the scope of the township examination still revolves around the Four Books, Five Classics, Three Histories and Three Legends, the examiners hope that the candidates can quote from the side when answering the questions, and mention some books other than the Four Books, Five Classics, Three Histories and Three Biography, so as to show that they are not a nerd who can only talk on paper as much as possible.

Especially in today's Shengshang, in order to select truly talented people, questions are often taken from hell, so the chief examiner of the Shengshangqin faction does not like nerds, so Li Qiao must avoid this thunder point when answering questions.

Xing Xuezheng's words are very important to Li Qiao.

Although Li Qian had already guessed the reason why the saint was asked to take hell, but now that Xing Xuezheng said this, it was tantamount to giving an official witness.

Xing Xuezheng suggested that Li Qiao read more books other than the Four Books, the Five Classics, the Three History, and the Three Biographies in order to expand his knowledge.

Xing Xuezheng suggested so, of course Li Qiao had to do it, he and Tao Zhu went out of the school government and immediately drove the ox cart to the bookstore.

For example, some agricultural books, medical books, calendars and arithmetic, geographical chronicles, travelogues, etc., as long as he has not read them, he will buy them all.

After sweeping the large and small bookstores in Fucheng, there were more than 100 more books in Li Qiao's bookbox.

Now he didn't have the heart to play, so he went back to the village directly.

August is the township test, in addition to the basic four books, five classics, three histories and three biographies, he has more than 100 books to read, and in the next few months, he will definitely have to hang his head and stab his head.

Xu Ying and Meng Yue also planned to participate in the township test in August, and the two of them had to go to the county school to report, so they did not stay in Fucheng for long, but returned to Pingcheng with Li Qiao.

When this group left Fucheng, the official road of Fucheng-Pingcheng was basically repaired, and only a few dozen miles of land remained.

Now there is no need for Li Qiao to give out the silver, the silver raised by Jiangzhi County and Mingzhi Mansion is enough to build this road.

After Li Qiao and his entourage walked through dozens of miles of unrepaired land, they stepped on a flat avenue.

The ox cart walked on the flat adobe brick road, and there was almost no bumpiness, so Li Qiao concentrated on reading.

He didn't need to memorize all the more than 100 books he had just bought, he just needed to read them carefully and increase his knowledge reserves.

Of course, individual important points still need to be remembered.

Li Qiao worked so hard, Xu Ying and Meng Yue also became nervous.

Xu Ying and Meng Yue didn't think that they could pass the township test, they were purely to save experience, the township test was held once every three years, if they missed this time, they would have to wait for another three years.

As a young man, Xu Ying didn't have the patience to wait another three years, he wanted to see it.

Meng Yue also wanted to see, although the Meng family was poor, they had also saved some silver by relying on sweet potato vermicelli in the past two years, which was enough for Meng Yue to go to the capital to experience the township test.

Because they knew that they couldn't pass the exam, Meng Yue and Xu Ying didn't read anymore recently.

But at this time, seeing Li Qiao working so hard, the relaxed nerves of the two of them tensed again.

It's terrible, even if Li Qiao is smarter than them, he is even more diligent than them, this is to kill them.

At noon that day, while eating at a roadside restaurant, Xu Ying and Meng Yue couldn't help but express their admiration to Li Qiao.

Not only smart, but also hard-working, really not giving others a way to live.

After hearing this, Li Qiao shook her head with a smile: "I don't think I'm smart, if I'm really smart, why am I working so hard?" ”

Xu Ying: "......"

Meng Yue: "......"

There seems to be a little truth to that.

"If you are really smart, you can compose a poem at the age of seven or eight, or you can write a poem in seven steps, or you can never forget it, what do I have? I don't have anything, you think I'm smart, but I'm wrong, I'm more experienced than you because I have vermicelli. Seriously, I'm not smart at all. ”

Li Qiao didn't want to be labeled smart at all, when a smart person was tired to death, he would collapse if he was not careful.

He has lived two lives, and he has followed the path of hard work.

Xu Ying: "......"

Meng Yue: "......"
