Coupled with the money from the eleventh year of Wanli, I am particularly curious as to why all the relatives and friends around Gu Xiancheng were able to pass the Jinshi within six years. Is it so easy to pass the Jinshi?"
"You're drunk!" Xue Fujiao and Ye Maocai didn't want to pay attention to Lin Tailai's provocation and left directly.
Previously, Huang Xueshi reminded Lin Tailai that the Qingliu forces would definitely fight for the fellow examiners of the Yi Jing room in the joint examination next year.
Originally, Lin Tailai hadn't thought too much, but after seeing Xue Fujiao and Ye Maocai, he suddenly recalled a lot of information.
It seems that in history, Zhao Nanxing, one of the future three giants of Donglin, served as a co-examiner in the I-Ching room, and Gao Panlong, Xue Fujiao, Ye Maocai and other backbones of Donglin came from Zhao Nanxing's room.
Therefore, there is a high probability that the person who personally mobilized all his strength to stop him in the Yi Jing room is Zhao Nanxing, one of the future three giants of Donglin?
Finally, the Luming Banquet ended in a somewhat strange atmosphere, and the work of the Yingtianfu Township Examination in the 16th year of Wanli was completely completed.
The new imperial examiner of Su Song's Second Prefecture, who missed his hometown, packed his bags and immediately embarked on the return ship.
In mid-September, Lin Jieyuan returned to Suzhou City.
Five students from Suzhou Fufu School passed the exam this time, and their results were extremely outstanding. Professor Cui finally felt that there was hope for a promotion and a salary increase.
Originally, Fu Xue wanted to hold a celebration banquet, but Lin Daguan rejected it. Now he doesn't have much mood or time to waste on it.
Moreover, for him, government education has become a thing of the past, and from now on his identity will be "Master Lin" instead of "Lin Sheng".
Official Lin inspected the main territory. The industrial park on the south bank of the Xujiang River was on slightly higher ground and the floods were not serious. The villas at the foot of Lingyan Mountain in Mudu Town were even finer.
As for the Canglang Pavilion in the city, since the south city is a little more spacious and sparsely populated, the flood flow is smooth, so the problem is not big.
Moreover, in order to ensure the absolute safety of Lin Mansion, all the water was diverted to the Changzhou County Government in the north.
The county magistrate, whose name was not even noticed by Lin Daguan, was incompetent and furious, but he dared not speak out in anger.
The only one that suffered a big disaster was the Lin family compound in Hengtang Town. The terrain here was low-lying and surrounded by large rivers, so it was flooded.
Even Huang Wuniang, the mistress of the Lin Family Courtyard in Hengtang Town, was forced to take Lin Jiuwu and temporarily move to the Lin Mansion in Canglang Pavilion, but was laughed at by Lady Fan for a month.
But Mrs. Fan soon stopped laughing because Huang Wuniang became pregnant again and had already been given the nickname Shuisheng in advance.
After a round of inspection and seeing that there was nothing major going on at home, Lin Tailai was ready to leave for the capital.
The trial will be held in February next year. If you want to arrive in Beijing before the canal freezes at the end of the year, you will have to leave in early October at the latest.
Therefore, Lin Jieyuan, who returned from the provincial examination, could live at home for about half a month.
As a new leader, Lin Tailai didn't even have time to show off for a few moments, and the time passed in a flash.
To be honest, for Suzhou people, liberal arts Jieyuan is not as fresh as Wu Jieyuan last time.
When setting off to rush for the exam, you should try to plan as much time as possible on the way to prevent accidents.
For example, Hu Yinglin, who inherited the academic mantle of literary criticism from the old leader Wang and was regarded as a genius, was supposed to take part in the examination next year.
But historically, for some unknown reason, probably because he wanted to make his final appearance like the protagonist, Hu Yinglin did not set out to take the exam until the first month of next year.
As a result, the Yellow River flooded halfway and the canal waterway was cut off. Then the unlucky guy fell seriously ill again and was absent from next year's examination. The governor of the river channel felt that he was really pitiful and found a boat to send him back to his hometown.
You can have fun watching other people's misfortune, and you should also learn from other people's lessons.
For the sake of safety, Lin Daguan decided to use fifty strong "housekeepers" as escorts to go to the capital together.
The risk factor in the capital should not be as high as in Nanjing, and fifty thugs should be enough.
However, with so many people going to the capital, accommodation is definitely a problem that needs to be seriously solved.
Therefore, before setting off in person, Lin Tailai sent Zhang Wen, the Zuo protector, to go north ten days in advance to purchase a property in the capital.
Nowadays, the house price in the capital is about ten taels per room. For example, for a courtyard with more than 30 rooms in three rooms, the transaction price is about 400 taels.
Although the Lin Group has maintained high investment and tight cash flow, Lin Tailai can still afford such a house for a few hundred taels. Besides, for his own safety, it is worth spending more money.
After hearing that Lin Tailai was going to bring fifty strong servants, the local communicative officials all asked to join the team and go to the capital together.
In early October, Lin Tailai and his thugs left Suzhou City again and embarked on a journey to seek higher fame.
The capital is more than two thousand miles apart from the city of Suzhou. This is Lin Tailai's second visit to the capital.
At this time, Mr. Lin is no longer the eighteen-year-old boy he was three years ago.
