Xiang Chengxian was a little angry when Fang Yingwu said, "Brother Fu is really unreasonable this time. He knew this and didn't even tell me clearly! He almost made me confused."
He glanced at Fang Yingwu, who was still calm and calm, and asked, "Brother Fang Xian, aren't you angry?"
Fang Yingwu said indifferently: "Why are you angry? Didn't you listen to the discussion of a few people from the West Lake Poetry Society just now? This West Lake gathering will use a giant boat that can accommodate dozens of people, with fine wine, beauties, orchestral music, and delicacies.
It's quite expensive.
After spending so much money to organize an eye-catching event, of course it is only right to let your own people take the credit, and it is only right to flatter your own people's reputation. Maybe it is the person who is being praised who is the one who provided the money, why should we be angry?
I'm afraid that in the eyes of those in charge, if we can participate, it means we are honored to attend a grand event, and if we want to ask for anything else, it is just to have an inch of warning and to look forward to Shu."
"Do you really think so? It's quite reasonable." Mr. Xiang asked suspiciously. In his impression, Fang Yingwu had many tricks and rarely suffered losses.
Fang Yingwu didn’t know what he couldn’t think about. In his previous life, wasn’t star-making and hype always like this? But to say he was unhappy, he still felt a little bit unhappy that he thought he was the protagonist but was dragged into the background. “It’s natural that I spent money.
You are the master, what else can you do?"
Xiang Chengxian chuckled a few times and said, "Before the county school exam last year, you said that it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years, and there is no need to fight for shortcomings and gains. What happens next?"
Fang Yingwu said helplessly: "That was an accident."
After walking for a while, Xiang Chengxian suddenly felt deeply, "After you said it, I have some insights. Brother Fu is willing to recommend me to participate. It's probably because my uncle is involved in politics. Inviting you to participate seems to be
Because I mentioned that you are a student of Shang Xianggong.
It was originally an elegant gathering of literati who met friends through poetry and prose. But it feels like everything has changed. What the West Lake Poetry Society has done is really embarrassing."
Fang Yingwu in turn advised Xiang Chengxian: "Just get used to it. That's why this is called a peaceful and prosperous age. If there are troubled times, it would be good to be alive, so why bother with these things? Especially in a city like Hangzhou, it won't
It’s as pure as our hometown again.”
After the two said goodbye, they each returned to their apartments to rest without mentioning anything.
On the next day, Fang Yingwu got up, washed himself, sat in the yard and dazed for a while, and then started to walk out again. But this time he didn't ask Wang Ying to follow him, and went out alone.
Yesterday, Fang Daxiucai arrived for the first time. He naturally wandered around to familiarize himself with the environment. Besides, he was tired from the journey and mainly rested. Today, he felt that his energy had been restored. After looking in the mirror, he looked good, so he went out to pay a visit.
He was not going to the Governor's Office. With Wang Shu's temperament, it would be better not to see him at all, and less often than to see him often; nor was he going to Wang Kui or Wang Yuanwai. If he was sensible, Wang Yuanwai should take the initiative to visit him. He would be there wherever he was needed.
Come to visit someone?
Fang Yingwu wanted to go to the Office of the Inspector General. When he got here, he handed over the notice and waited in the concierge.
Seeing that this man was dressed simply but with extraordinary aura, the disciples guessed that he must be a so-called "talented man". Such people are most proud of their talents and are not easy to serve. If they are dissatisfied at all, they will make a fuss. So he carefully said: "My family
The master will probably not see any visitors today. My friend, you’d better not wait any longer.”
Fang Yingwu glanced up and down at the door, "Are you new here?"
"This friend has really sharp eyes." Before the doorman could finish his words, he saw a servant running out in a hurry. When he arrived at the concierge, he responded and shouted: "Please!"
The disciple suddenly realized that although this man was a small person and his clothes were not outstanding, he turned out to be an old friend of the master.
When Zhu Shen, the inspector-general, saw Fang Yingwu, he remembered the great turmoil in the officialdom of the provincial capital last year. The imperial court suddenly deposed the governor of Zhejiang, and the two chief envoys got out together. Only he, the inspector-general, had a demerit and stayed in office. All this happened before his eyes.
This young scholar single-handedly started and dealt with the aftermath.
Others thought that he was able to stay in office because of his deep roots or connections. But he knew his own affairs, and Mr. Zhu knew very well that this was not the case at all.
The reason why he was able to stay in office was mainly because the imperial court and Governor Wang wanted to stabilize the local area, and then Fang Yingwu also acquiesced and did not pursue the charges of harboring and violating the law against him.
Facing Fang Yingwu, Zhu Shen tried his best secretly for a long time, but he couldn't show that he was a third-rank inspector, so he had to ask politely: "Friend Fang, I haven't seen you for a long time, what do you do for me?"
Fang Yingwu asked Mr. Zhu to move away, then he took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Mr. Zhu.
Zhu Shen opened it and looked, but there were several names of people and places. "This is"
Fang Yingwu said concisely and concisely: "These are the names of several instructors in the province. I hope Mr. Lian Xian will pay attention to them." Zhu Shen suddenly understood what this meant.
A province's rural examination has a principal examiner, a deputy examiner, and co-examiners who mark papers in separate rooms. Now in the 16th year of Chenghua's Zhejiang Township Examination, the chief examiner is determined to be the academic officer Li Shishi, and the deputy examiner is assigned by the capital.
But co-examiner is another method of selection, which is completely different from that of chief examiner. Before the township examination, the governor of the province will discuss with each other through meetings and select people with both ability and political integrity from the provincial government schools, prefecture schools, and county school instructors to serve as co-examiners.
Examiner.
Three months before the provincial examination, Fang Yingwu gave Zhu Shen the names of several instructors, and the meanings are self-evident. He must have hoped that Mr. Zhu would recommend these people when selecting fellow examiners.
Zhu Yingchao held the list in his hand, frowned slightly, and thought for a long time before asking: "Is this your intention? Or is it Wang Zhongcheng's intention?"
Wang Zhongcheng was naturally the governor Wang Shu. Zhu Shen wanted to find out first whether Fang Yingwu came on his own initiative or on behalf of the governor. Although the governor Wang had an outstanding reputation and was known for his uprightness and selflessness, who knew.
Fang Yingwu replied calmly: "This is not what the governor Wang meant."
When Zhu Shendi was about to say something, Fang Yingwu continued: "This may be what I mean, or it may be what Grand Master means, or it may be what Shen Xun press means. In the end, I hope it will become what you mean, Sir.
"
Inspector Zhu was very surprised. He glanced at Fang Yingwu a few times, then looked down at the list a few times. After a while, he put the list away. "I know what friend Fang means."
Fang Yingwu raised his hand and said, "Thank you so much for your beauty."
These names were actually given to Fang Yingwu by Li Shishi, the Deputy Envoy of the Provincial Examination and the chief examiner of the rural examination. Although Grandmaster Li was the chief examiner, he could not decide who would be the same examiner.
During the meeting at Yanzhou Mansion, Fang Yingwu made a few hints, and Grandmaster Li proposed several names and entrusted Fang Yingwu with the operation.
Fang Yingwu didn't dare to use the list to find his cheap grandfather, but at any rate, his identity was here, so he could only pretend to be powerful and go to Zhu Yingchao, who was psychologically weak to him.
Mr. Zhu agreed, which was at least more than half settled. Fang Yingwu walked out of the Office of the Inspector General easily and returned to his residence on Qingyun Street.
The Qingyun Street area is now full of well-dressed scholars, and you can hear "Zhi Hu Zhi Ye" everywhere on the street. Fang Yingwu walked to a street intersection, and suddenly someone stopped him sneakily and asked quietly: "You are a scholar who is here to take the examination."
Sir, I am willing to lend a helping hand to my friend."
Fang Yingwu looked at the other party. Could this be a fraudulent broker? (To be continued...)
ps: It’s not that I don’t want to update the code word in the past two days, it’s because the experience has been too deceiving, hey
