Jia Yu looked at the tall figure of the mandarin duck from time to time, and the banquet was laughing and the opera was noisy.

He couldn't hear clearly, so he asked, "Brother Cong, what did you say?" ”

Jia Cong was speechless, and said with careful phrasing: "Father, son is saying."

Master Shen, the master of the house test, sent a letter.

What do you think about going south? ”

Jia Yu has not yet spoken.

Mrs. Xing, who was next to her at the women's table, heard it and interjected.

"Brother Cong has a reputation for showing off his talents, but he doesn't need to open the way, he can go to all parts of the world."

Wait for Mrs. Xing's voice to fall.

Jia Yu reluctantly withdrew his greedy gaze from the freckles on the face of the mandarin duck goose egg.

I was a little unhappy in my heart, blaming my son for disturbing his interest, and waved his hand a little impatiently.

"No, no, Suzhou is a long way away.

It's not like you to go to Wanping, your parents are here, and you don't travel far. ”

It's too far away, and I'm not at ease.

Let alone...... It's another gratuitous expense.

Over there, Mother Jia asked them what they were talking about, and Mrs. Wang vaguely heard a few words and replied to her mother-in-law.

Jia Mu thought about it again and again, leaned forward and said, "Brother Cong, are you a child who is still thinking about it?"

Our family has entered Beijing, except for Fuling to go south.

There are few people who return to Jinling, let alone Suzhou.

Indeed, your light is not spiritual, I think about it.

I heard about Wanping's Xiucai and Master Qian in Beijing.

I'm afraid that you will get into trouble again.

Besides, in Wuzhong, you can't control you.

Not up to you? ”

Jia Cong's brows were furrowed, and his face was silent.

I scolded in my heart: Fuck your mother's feudal etiquette!

Jia's mother openly said that Jia Cong's aura was not working, soothing Baoyu in her arms.

Extreme prejudice and dislike have become very obvious.

Jia Cong had a bumpy journey along the way, and he knocked down a few people.

Outsiders are all good.

On the contrary, it was Jia's mother, who was a grandmother, who thought it was even more unlucky.

Sanchun, Baochai, Daiyu, and Aunt Xue didn't say anything.

was rejected for a trumped-up reason, and Jia Cong was not very happy at the moment.

Then he thought about countermeasures, so he was silent!

The atmosphere suddenly fell into an inexplicable dullness.

Then.

Zhou Rui led a door bucket in.

Men Dou is the errand of the school administration yamen.

That door bucket is very aware of the etiquette of the officials and nobles.

When you come in, you go outside the hall, and if you don't go inside, you worship.

"We learn politics and give it to the old ladies and gentlemen in the house.

Mrs. and grandmother greeted each other, and the festival was disturbed. ”

"Gift-giving is not bad for your family, just keep accounts.

What are you doing here? ”

Jia Mu couldn't look down on it and scolded Zhou Rui.

Zhou Rui hesitated and couldn't speak.

The man was neither humble nor arrogant, and continued.

"Our master is in a hurry, so he will call the little heirloom of the country's eunuchs.

The master of your mansion Jia Cong elected the son of the country to pay tribute.

Trouble to fill in the student record, this matter is important.

Therefore, it is called the small personal transmission. ”

Guozijian?

Yougon?

Jia Mu was stunned, where is this not blessed by spiritual light?

How many people can there be in a province of Guozijian Yougong?

Suddenly.

The chief manager, Lai Da, hurriedly ran in again, didn't have time to wipe his sweat, and bowed down.

"The old lady, the old man, the big lady.

The official of the Governor's Mansion of Prince Yu came to the door.

The servant invited him to the lobby, saying that he was here for the third master. ”

"Prince Yu's Mansion!?"

Jia Zheng's shooting, is it a good thing or a bad thing?

The lords, wives, sons, and ladies of the entire lobby were silent.

Only the sound of music on the stage, the cold wind in the early spring night swished by.

Guozijian's students are divided into two categories.

The first is Gongsheng.

The second is the prison guard.

Gongsheng and prison students are divided into different types.

Those who buy with money are called "regular tributes" and "routine supervisors".

Relying on the merits of the ancestors for "Engong", "Shadow Prison", and so on.

Yougong and Youjian are selected from among the students by the school administration.

Glory and status surpass other tributes and prisoners.

became a tribute to the prince of the country, even if he did not win the promotion in the future.

You can also take the court examination once every few years to become an official.

This is a way back.

Of course, it is impossible to enter the Hanlin Academy, the Zhan Mansion, and the Cabinet.

can't be an important official in Beijing.

It is also difficult for magistrates to mix with the governor, and the background of Kejia is the safest.

Chen Dongsheng means this.

The main thing is to let Jia Cong enter the country to receive a better and more formal education.

Guozijian is the highest institution of national central learning.

There is no doubt about the educational conditions and level.

Furthermore.

With the status of a tribute, according to the regulations of Dachu.

can be exempted from the scientific examination and annual examination of Xiucai, and participate in the township examination indefinitely.

Gongsheng and Prison have only two futures.

Either use money to buy officials, or take the township test.

But.

If it is not for the tribute students and prison students who are promoted as students.

There is a limit to the number of times you can take the township test, but it is within the prescribed number of times.

I can only buy a petty official.

This shows the superiority of the two lists.

Jinshi was born, and he can wait for the resumption of the dismissal.

Although Guozijian is the highest institution of learning in the country.

But Jia Cong doesn't catch a cold very much, and is a little tired.

When I enter a national school, do I still have freedom?

In his previous life, he was devastated by exam-oriented education.

So he instinctively resisted.

But...... Chen Dongsheng's kindness cannot be dismissed.

This is the abuse of power for personal gain.

There are very few places in the provinces.

Chen Dongsheng was directly assigned to him with the authority of Zhili Xuezheng.

But Jia Cong's fame and strength cannot be ignored.

Otherwise, the Guozijian, the Ministry of Rites, and the Cabinet may not be able to tick and pass.

Let's fill in the student registration first.

The annual examination and scientific examination are the nightmare of Xiucai.

The annual examination must be taken every year, and there is a tribute student status.

Since then, he has been able to directly participate in the Qiufu Township Examination.

"I'm tired of my errand."

Jia Cong got up and came out of the outer hall and took the card.

It's not like Jia Mu's impatience and contempt.

He took out two taels of silver from his sleeve bag.

"I will report tomorrow, where has Mr. Chen gone?

Is it okay to be under the festival? ”

"Master Xuetai arrived at Baoding Mansion, and Master Dutai received it."

Men Dou excused himself and accepted it with a smile.

Baoding Mansion is the permanent residence of the Governor of Zhili Yu Hazy.

It's hard for this person to come all the way, it can be seen that Chen Dongsheng really values himself.

Jia Cong thought about it for a while, and changed his words: "That's it."

You don't look like you're going back today, so I'll bring some presents later. ”

This was said with both rigidity and softness, and the door fighter had a great impression of him, and he retreated.

Jia Cong thought about it and paced back.

Zhou Rui has explained the situation in the inner hall.

Jia's mother didn't say a word, when will her Baoyu be able to be beautiful?

Jia Yingchun congratulated warmly with a smile and walked a few steps to help his little brother.

"This is really not far from the Toad Palace.

The old man is still thinking about you under the big festival. ”

"Mother, my son is going to meet the Lord of the Governor's Mansion."

Jia Yu couldn't hide his joy, and almost agreed to Jia Cong's south.

Seeing that Jia's mother was not interested, she closed her mouth and went out.

Daiyu and Baochai couldn't help but look at Jia Cong a few more times.

Baochai's apricot eyes are brilliant.

Compared with Jia Baoyu, who was pampered in Jia's mother's arms.

Today's Jia Cong looks calm and calm.

To be talented, to have a family background.

It is...... It is inevitable that there is a lack of elegance.

Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng's smiles were far-fetched, just like eating flies.

Jia Lian didn't care.

Jia Baoyu was very upset and muttered quietly.

"A layman, a real layman."

The scene was once embarrassing.

"Okay, the festival is over, and I'm a little sleepy.

After the fireworks, they all dispersed. ”

Jia Mu didn't look at Jia Cong.

just admired the fireworks blooming in the sky and hugged her Baoyu and Daiyu.

When the fireworks are boring again.

Jia Mu helped the mandarin duck to stand up, dispersed the meeting, and rested.

Li Kun sighed, turned his head and reprimanded Jia Lan: "Look at your third uncle, a twelve-year-old prodigy."

Lan'er.

You have to learn more from your Third Uncle Cong, can you remember?"

Jia Lan nodded obediently: "Oh! ”

.......

On the seventeenth day of the first month of the eighth year of Qiande, there was a light breeze and drizzle.

Get along for more than two years.

Miss Qingwen and Jia Cong's relationship has warmed up a lot.

Her identity, family background, and temperament are in Jia Cong's opinion.

It's a great lack of love.

As a prodigy who came over, Jia Shentong accompanied her to visit her relatives.

It's just a small detail that gives her monthly freedom.

But it was to let him quietly occupy a place in the girl's heart.

Jiafu has strict rules.

Entering the painting to hide his brother's belongings, in fact, it is not a real private collection.

But according to the rules, it must be handed over to their caretakers.

And the caretaker drinks and gambles and does not learn well.

Wouldn't it be a waste of their hard-earned money?

However, the painting was so "wrongly investigated".

Minion; One has no personal rights, and the other has no property rights.

Yes.

The master and servant slept together every night, talking and laughing.

I don't know when it started, but now it's becoming natural.

Put a padded jacket and a hat on him.

Qingwen smiled with her eyebrows: "You said you want to go south, can the eldest master agree?"

What did the Lord of the Governor say that night? ”

Lin Hongyu quietly stepped forward and handed over the hand stove and said.

"It was Prince Yu who chose the third master of Cong and sent the chief of the mansion to inform him.

Because of his young age, the two lists are undecided.

It is not reported to the imperial court to be selected to be on duty in the prince's palace.

The old man's visit at night is just a trip in civilian clothes, not a business trip.

said that if the third master of Cong went south and returned to his hometown.

Prince Yu wants to be a staff officer and a water conservancy.

That's what it means, how can the eldest master not agree?

I decided to go back at the end of summer, but my eldest wife asked me to go back. ”

Lin Hongyu is a fast-talking, talkative, and has made Li Kun faint.

There is a metaphor in her words, and there is a big lady covering her.

Jia Cong asked her, "Brother Yun has been here before?" ”

"I've been here a few times, and I've always greeted my grandfather."

Lin Hongyu answered smoothly, relieved and suddenly alert.

After thinking for a while, he shut up and said nothing.

Seeing this, the corners of Jia Cong's mouth lifted, and he didn't ask anything.

Qingwen naturally saw something, her eyebrows bent, and she snorted.

Now I no longer worry about Lin Hongyu's dispute, and I simply forgave her for interjecting rudely.

said: "Have you been to Andingmen?" ”

"If you don't go through it, you can find it, it's such a big place as Guozijian."

Jia Cong cleaned up.

Qingwen nodded her chin: "If you write a pro-confession for admission."

If you don't come back, ask Tie Niu to report a letter. ”

.......

.......

Inside the Rika Temple.

The simple and elegant Xue Baochai pulled Xiangling to speak.

Ying'er embroidered on the side.

"Xiangling, all these years, I don't remember when I chose your name."

Xue Baochai smiled slightly.

carefully looked at the girl who was getting better and better, and praised it repeatedly.

Xiangling said dumbfoundedly: "The girl's knowledge is even praised by the aunt."

The girl didn't pay attention, but I remembered.

It was four years ago that we entered Beijing.

The girl saw a pond of lotus roots.

The name also sounds fragrant. ”

"It's hard for you to remember."

Xue Baochai pursed the corners of his lips and teased.

"Next year, you go to Brother Cong's room over there, don't forget me."

"What the girl said about this, it may be difficult to say."

Xiangling blinked her eyelashes and lowered her eyebrows slightly: "Xiangling has entered the Xue family."

The girl has been well treated, but she can't forget it. ”

"That's it."

Xue Baochai said softly: "My brother bought a few fine lake silk from the Jinling Weaving Bureau.

It was turned around from Huzhou, and I asked the tailor to make a set.

Catch Ming'er, you come and get it. ”

Xiangling thanksgiving, quit.

Ying'er sneered.

Xue Baochai glanced at her angrily: "Ying'er, what are you laughing at?" ”

"The girl went to Beijing for the draft, and the household department signed up for the book.

Maybe it will be a concubine in the future, and the third master has not yet been promoted.

How can the girl be sure that he will be a great man?

So.... Why did you ask Xiangling to be an internal .......?"

Ying'er was originally joking in private, she and Baochai grew up together.

They are the servants of the master, but they are sisters.

Ying'er is familiar with the temperament of her own girl, so she naturally does not shy away from it.

Xue Baochai's cheeks flushed when he heard this, and he glared at this dead girl who was speechless in shame.

Stand up.

The green onion and yellow silk cotton skirt swayed, and the serious style of the master was put up.

"You shameless girl, what are you talking about?

Look at what you are used to, I will never spare you today......"

Anyway, when he lifted the skirt, he had to go up and pull Ying'er's face.

"Yikes."

Ying'er covered her lips and smiled, and hid around: "Girl, spare me this time, don't say anything more." ”

Before long, the master and servant frolicked together.

——————

The Anding Gate and Desheng Gate in the north of the inner city belong to the Nine Gates.

The precautions are strict, and Desheng Gate is in the northwest.

Andingmen is in the northeast.

Show your ticket.

Jia Cong and his entourage had to enter the city gate and enter the Anding Gate.

Arrive at the gate of the Guozijian Jixian Gate, there are guards and gatehouses.

Jia Cong showed the card ticket again: "In the next is promoted by the old man of Zhili Xuezheng."

Those who came to Beiyong to fill in the personal confession and student status. ”

The card is carved and protruding from the "Beiyong pass".

The porter looked over and over them.

Jia Cong handed over a few taels of silver.

The porter bit it and said with a smile: "The color is still sufficient, from Zhili Province."

Which province and which county?

Why didn't you bring it over from the master? ”

"The student is from Wanping County, West Road Hall, Shuntianfu, and his ancestor is Rong Guogong." Jia Cong said.

"Rong Guogong?"

The porter was stunned when he heard this, and immediately hurriedly returned the silver, and said with a panicked face.

"The grandchildren and great-grandchildren of the country have a special doctor to receive them.

Please come with me. ”

It's still a good family name.

Jia Cong shook his head slightly and followed.

There is a well pavilion on the left and right sides of Jixian Gate.

On the right, the Jingmen leads to the Confucian Temple.

Second, the entrance gate is too headed, and the east and west set up the bell pavilion and the drum pavilion.

In the past, it was the glazed archway of three four-pillar halls, tall and luxurious.

Jia Cong sighed.

Tie Niu and Cao Dahua were also dumbfounded.

Rao is that they are used to seeing the grandeur of the Guogong Mansion.

can be compared with the national prison, it is a small thing.

The porter led them straight to the central axis to Piyong.

Biyong is built on a circular pool.

The platform under the seat symbolizes the round sky and the place.

Up to several zhang, heavy eaves heart.

Six stairs, six bays, surrounded by square corridors.

The three-layer glazed glass is bright and sparkling, and the four-sided exquisite overpass can be passed.

On both sides of Biyong are 36 classrooms for Guozijian students.

It is divided into six levels, each with six classes.

Each has a teaching assistant and a doctor to teach.

It's time for schoolwork.

You can hear the sound of books.

The roads are only guarded, patrolled, and handymen.

This supreme institution of learning is worthy of its name.

Walk up the steps.

Enter an office study on the right side of Biyong.

Dr. Song of the monastery received Jia Cong.

Jia Cong filled in the personal confession and student status.

Letters stamped by Jia Yu and Chen Dongsheng were forwarded.

"Recklessness, sincerity, justice, reverence, monasticism, and Guangye six halls.

You're a new naturalized student, come to the monastery. ”

Dr. Song glanced at this famous man a few times.

Jia Cong blinked and asked, "Doctor, can a student only become a naturalized student and not come to the academy?" ”

Dr. Song glanced at him and said, "Others can't, but you are recognized by the Fourth Prince."

You can make a special exception, but you can go south and come back.

I still have to take an exam, and I got my homework by the way. ”

Jia Cong received his homework and Guozijian student voucher again.

There are seven books in the Five Classics, and four books have only become auxiliaries.

Guozijian specializes in training candidates to participate in the village hall.

Out of the corridor of the monastery, every time the students get out of class.

An inmate who had returned to the dormitory looked familiar to him, thought about it, turned around, and stopped.

"Brother Jing, under Wang Jingwei."

Jia Cong also turned his head when he heard the sound, looked at it for a long time, and was slightly surprised.

"It turns out that Brother Wang really came in, and Gu'an said goodbye.

It's not like I haven't seen him for a long time, Brother Wang's future is set? ”

"I donated the prisoners, and then the donors, and I have been in need for so long.

Wait until a Jiangsu branch patrol road, and then go to work in a few months. ”

Wang Jingwei was a little happy: "The four-grade cloud goose complement can be regarded as developed." ”

"Congratulations, congratulations, coincidentally, I'm going south about Xiaqiu.

happens to be on the same road, is it casual for Brother Wang to enter the school? ”

Jia Cong remained silent.

In his heart, he decided that Wang Dacheng was hard in the background.

I donated a Taoist at one time, how can I do it without a backstage?

And it's a Jiangsu sub-patrol road!

The people who came down according to the envoy of the priest are more fat than the prefect of the county!

Jinshi background may not have this good luck!

This is the smoke of the ancestral grave!
