After celebrating the Yu twin brothers, Zhang Jingxiu went to Beijing with them.

Qin Hanqian hugged her three-month-old son Zhang Jinyong with her.

In addition, they also brought a bicycle that was inspected by Yu's twin brothers and developed a finished product or sample.

I have no choice but to be happy.

When Zhang Jingxiu left Jiangling, the Zhu Group was temporarily handed over to Hu Yixian for management.

The discussion about bicycles is still very lively, but since they have not yet been officially put into production, it will take some time before use.

But like the 0112,0113 employees, all yearning for a bicycle.

As a result, the legend of bicycles was so popular that it was even magical in Jiangling City. Those who were fortunate to see it were amazed, and those who had never seen it wanted to get a glimpse of it.

The reputation of bicycles became famous like this.

...

This is Beijing.

Xu State had already gone south. On the day of departure, Zhu Yiliu led all civil and military officials to see him off.

Wang Jiaping, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, was promoted to the Grand Secretary of the Dongge and joined the cabinet to assist in the government affairs.

On this day, Shen Shixing said that Wang Xijue was depressed and had no intention of handling government affairs. After inquiring, it turned out that it was because his daughter-in-law unfortunately died, so she asked Zhu Yili to be kind and allowed Wang Xijue to take leave and go home for two days of rest.

Zhu Yili agreed immediately.

In ancient times, Wang Xijue was considered a lover, who only married a wife and gave birth to his only son Wang Heng.

Wang Heng was also very promising. He studied under the great writer Wang Shizhen (student Zhang Juzheng), and was a famous calligrapher and representative figure in the Southern Opera in the Ming Dynasty.

For this reason, Wang Xijue came to thank him and said with gratitude: "Ziheng has been weak and sick since childhood. He once married the daughter of my friend, Jin, and was a Yuanmao. He was virtuous and filial, and had a daughter's virtue. Unfortunately, he died young. Ziheng continued to marry Xu, but he died less than a year later. I only had this son. Seeing that he was haggard and decadent, I had not received rice for two days, so I really couldn't bear it."

"Shrine the changes!" Zhu Yiliu said, "Old Wang Ge returned home to rest and adjust for two days."

"I really don't know how to thank Your Majesty!" Wang Xijue kowtowed and thanked him.

"Does the son live in the capital now?"

"Hokao Taicang, I just entered Beijing shortly."

"I'll comfort him a few words, how about letting the son come into the palace?" Zhu Yiliu asked.

"It is really a blessing for a child to be enlightened by His Majesty!" Wang Xijue said with emotion.

"Okay! Then let the son come."

"Thank you, I will take my leave first."

In this way, on the morning of the next day, Wang Xijue's son Wang Heng forced himself to enter the palace.

Wang Heng is several years older than Zhu Yiliu.

At this moment, he was just a scholar, but failed the exam twice.

It is certainly a thing that is flattered to be summoned by Zhu Yili. Fortunately, it is Wang Xijue's son. He has often been a big shot and is considered a person who has seen the world, so he will not panic.

Wang Heng thanked Wan'e, and Zhu Yili gave him a seat, asking him to be mournful and obedient to show his concern. It was indeed pitiful to think that he would die if he married his two wives.

So, Zhu Yiliu was interested in finding some relaxed topics: "I want to hold a Tucao conference in the near future and invite you to be a guest at that time. What do you think?"

Then, Zhu Yiliu briefly explained the form and theme of the "Tucao Conference".

After hearing this, Wang Heng shook his head repeatedly and said to Xie Bumin: "I am just a scholar, how can I be so virtuous? How dare I accept His Majesty's invitation? At that time, someone will be talking about gossiping because of his father's protection."

"Are you afraid of others gossiping?"

"My father was an official in the court for the second time, and the sons were of course afraid of implicating his reputation."

"But what should I do if I like you?" Zhu Yiliu said firmly.

"I dare to ask why your Majesty?"

"First, because you are the only son of Mr. Wang, and you are very concerned; second, you have some complaints. I heard that you were famous in the capital when you were sixteen."

"Please forgive me!" Wang Heng couldn't help but feel a little shocked, and he was so scared that he knelt down and kowtowed to mercy, thinking that Zhu Yili was trying to cause trouble for him.

Zhu Yili smiled slightly and said sincerely: "It seems that you misunderstood my intention to hold the "Tucao Conference". Tucao is a craft, and smiling requires courage. I am not to punish you, but to train your courage to reflect on yourself or self-deprecating. It is aimed at spurring people, not punishing people to harm others."

Wang Heng recalled why he was famous in the capital when he was sixteen years old? It was because of Zhang Juzheng.

When Zhang Juzheng's father passed away, Emperor Wanli vowed to take over the love. Zhang Juzheng thought that if he went home to observe the system, the reform would inevitably be interrupted. In addition, Emperor Wanli and Empress Dowager Li repeatedly tried to keep him, so he did not go back.

At that time, there were many officials who opposed the robbery of love, and Wang Xijue was also among them. Emperor Wanli sent the five officials who strongly opposed the robbery of love and moved them. Wang Heng wrote "Going Back to Come" and advised his father to go home quickly to satirize Zhang Juzheng for his greed for his position, which attracted officials to circulate it. It was famous for a while.

This is what Zhu Yiliu said.

There is no malice in fact.

But Wang Heng didn't think so. Although he had not yet entered the official career, he also knew that Zhu Yili was close to Zhang Juzheng, so he was of course very scared by Zhu Yili's mention of the embarrassing things he satirized Zhang Juzheng back then.

Seeing that Zhu Yili was sincere in his words, Wang Heng stood up and sat down again in fear.

"If you feel embarrassed, you can go back and discuss with your father first and then reply to me."

"Thank you for your understanding!"

"I heard that you like poetry and essays and watching operas but not the imperial examinations, so you didn't get the imperial examinations in both provincial examinations?"

Zhu Yili asked with a smile again.

"Please forgive me!" Wang Heng was shocked again. This time he was not scared to kneel down and kowtow, and hurriedly explained, "I dare not deceive Your Majesty. I do have this hobby, but I also like the imperial examination. I am focusing on studying the governance of ancient and modern systems, and working on the world's key tasks, so as to fight again."

"I'm not criticizing you." Zhu Yili said seriously, "It's better not to like the imperial examinations or not, why do you have to do what you don't like? Isn't it nice to concentrate on doing what you like? Just like Mr. Zhang Jingxiu, the youngest son of Mr. Zhang, if you don't like the imperial examinations, you won't take the exam."

"..." Wang Heng looked at Zhu Yili in a daze, so shocked that he couldn't speak.

Unexpectedly, the young emperor in front of him actually advised him not to take the imperial examination if he didn't like the imperial examination... Of course, he had heard of Zhang Jingxiu's name. Who doesn't know that Zhang Jingxiu manages the Zhu Group on behalf of Zhu Yiliu? It turns out that if Zhang Jingxiu doesn't take the imperial examination, it was also Zhu Yiliu's persuasion?

"What? I'm wrong?"

"Your Majesty, no." Wang Heng said carefully, "It's just that Mr. Zhang has six sons. Except for Zhang Jingxiu, everyone is an official in the court. His father only has one son, so it is naturally different. Moreover, his mother sincerely hopes that his minister will participate in the imperial examination and serve the court like his father."

"You don't have to be an official when serving the court!" Zhu Yiliu said, "Like Zhang Jingxiu, like the young disciple Zhang Jing, they are all serving the court."

"..." Wang Heng was stunned again. Of course, he also knew who Zhang Jing was. He was originally the chief of the Seal Supervisor and the admiral of the East Factory, but as soon as Zhu Yili came to power, he was demoted to him, making him the head of the agricultural development plan and turned into a civilian.

If it weren't for Zhu Yili's reputation, Wang Heng designated that the young emperor in front of him did not like to study and advised others not to study... he would have never seen such a strange emperor!

"I just want to say that I am doing myself and doing what I like, and let it go to my heart, without having to study for anyone, including your parents."

"I am very optimistic about you!" Zhu Yiliu then added, giving Wang Heng a thumbs up.

The reason why he sincerely advised him is that although Wang Heng in history had a prominent life experience, he suffered a lot in the imperial examinations, because he was very frustrated, depressed and depressed.

If that's the case, why bother to bump into it?
