Sun Chengyun was about to make a little joke when he saw Lin Yan'er appeared in front of Yu Zhu very slowly, and her walking posture was somewhat awkward.
At a quick glance, Lin Yan'er's brows and corners of her eyes were filled with moist charm.
Hehe, Sun Chengyun has been here for a long time, what else doesn’t he understand?
"When naming someone on the gold medal list, what's in the bridal chamber?" Sun Chengyun recited this pun intentionally vaguely.
Yuzhu knew in his heart that apart from the first encounter, Lin Yaner did suffer a lot later.
"Didn't I let you rest in the house? What are you doing here again?" Yuzhu complained casually to Lin Yan'er.
After all, Lin Yan'er was completely his woman. She was getting closer to her subtly, and her words became much more casual.
Lin Yan'er had really planned to take a rest, but when she heard that Sun Chengyun was coming, she deliberately came over to show her face and wanted to tell him in disguise that she was already Yuzhu's woman.
In this era, most women, except for wives, have no sense of security.
How could Yuzhu not know about Lin Yan'er's little thoughts?
Anyway, Lin Yan'er is his first woman, as long as it's not a matter of principle, everything else is up to her liking.
Sun Chengyun is such a clever person. Just from Yuzhu's complaints, he has already seen how much he dotes on and indulges Lin Yan'er.
"Little brothers and sisters, I came in a hurry this time and didn't bring a good gift. Well, this is the hairpin I bought for the Ninth Princess. I just put it in my arms. Please don't dislike it." Sun Chengyun reached into his arms and looked for it.
He took out an all-green agate hairpin and held it in front of Lin Yan'er with both hands.
Lin Yan'er is actually not poor. She followed Yu Zhu into the Tong family with a generous dowry given by the Lin family.
The Lin family is very rich. However, because the status of merchants is extremely low, no matter how much money they spend, some things are still impossible to buy.
The green agate hairpin in front of me looks like a good thing at first glance, worth at least a thousand taels of silver.
Lin Yan'er subconsciously looked at Yuzhu, who just smiled and did not say any polite words to Sun Chengyun.
Anyway, when Sun Chengyun gets married, Yuzhu will definitely give him a luxurious gift.
Lin Yan'er understood in an instant that the relationship between Sun Chengyun and Yuzhu was already familiar and informal.
"Thank you, Master Sun, for the reward." Lin Yan'er was also very angry. She knelt down and thanked her without any polite excuses.
Yuzhu glanced at Lin Yan'er and felt quite satisfied. Although she was the daughter of a merchant, her family spirit had been worn away a lot after being with him for a long time.
Yuzhu will definitely go to Fifth Brother Yinqi's invitation, and tonight's event is settled.
However, Yuzhu still had a big thing to do, and he had to go to Li Guangdi's door as soon as possible to thank his teacher.
Since he is Li Guangdi's Jieyuan, then Li Guangdi is the legitimate "seat master".
In addition, the fellow examiner who recommended the Yuzhu paper, Liang Huinong, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, was his "fangshi".
Yuzhu knew in his heart that as the news spread, more and more people would come to congratulate him.
Instead of participating in meaningless social activities, it is better to go and meet the famous roly-poly of the Kangxi Dynasty - Li Guangdi.
It’s quite interesting to say that Yuzhu’s mentor Tang Bing and his mentor Li Guangdi were both great Confucian scholars with big stains on their bodies.
If you study carefully, you will be surprised to find that all the ministers who were re-employed by Kangxi and had a certain amount of real power, including Longkodo, had big stains on them, without exception.
So Yuzhu prepared generous gifts and went straight to Li Guangdi's home.
Li Guangdi was a typical Han official, and he was not qualified to live in the inner city.
Because Kangxi was particularly considerate of Li Guangdi, he was given a large house in Dongchang Hutong outside Dong'anmen, which was the former chief minister of the Ming cabinet, and he lived on the property with a white flag.
According to the rules, Han ministers must enter the palace through Donghua Gate. Donghua Gate is just inside Dong'an Gate. The distance between Li Guangdi's home and the palace to go to court was ridiculously short.
When Yuzhu rushed to Dongchang Hutong, the alley was already crowded with new people who came to express their gratitude.
When Wu Jiang held Yuzhu's name card and squeezed through the crowd, Yuzhu heard everyone talking, and Li Guangdi closed the door to thank the guests, and no one was seen.
Although Yuzhu didn't know what happened in Gongyuan, he knew it in his heart.
At this sensitive moment, with Li Guangdi's cautiousness, he would definitely not provoke unnecessary rumors.
It actually doesn't matter whether Li Guangdi sees Yuzhu. With Yuzhu's strong family background, he doesn't need to rely on Li Guangdi's official support.
The important thing is that Yuzhu came to pay his respects to his teacher on the afternoon of the day he learned Yuan from Zhongzhong.
This is the worldly wisdom of many small-town essayists who have fallen into trouble because they didn’t understand.
In fact, being good at being a good person and having a good personal relationship with your boss are the keys to promotion.
The more talented a person is, the easier it is for him to rely on his talent and not pay attention to his boss who determines his future and destiny.
For example, Li Bai is a clear counterexample.
No matter how capable you are, so what? If you say you can't do it, you can't do it. No matter how good you are, you can't do it.
As expected, when Wu Jiang came back, he reported that Li Guangdi had no visitors, and he thanked him heartily.
So Yuzhu diverted and went to Liang Huinong's side.
Liang Huinong was a bachelor's degree student from the Hanlin Academy of the fourth grade. He seemed to be extremely noble, but in fact he had no real power in his hands.
As the clearest among the clearest, Liang Huinong is just the same examiner, so naturally there is no need to avoid too many taboos.
When he heard that Yuzhu was coming, Liang Huinong let him into the house as soon as possible.
After meeting, I saw a middle-aged man wearing blue satin casual clothes, sitting on the Taishi chair.
Yuzhu quickly bowed his head to the ground and said respectfully: "Disciple Yuzhu, please pay homage to Master Fang."
Liang Huinong smiled and waved his hands and said: "No need to be so polite, just sit down."
Yuzhu slanted his body and sat sideways on the Taishi chair, with only half of his buttocks sitting.
Liang Huinong nodded secretly. He thought that Yuzhu would not be able to come to pay homage to his teacher until the morning at the earliest.
According to the convention, on the second day when the list is announced, the master of reception will be thanked. Liang Huinong, the master of the house, will naturally be at the back.
Unexpectedly, just after posting the list in the morning, Yuzhu came to thank him in the afternoon. He actually had a completely different style of humility from the arrogant and domineering Longkodo.
Liang Huinong felt comfortable and started to talk, and he "naturally" remembered what happened in the Gongyuan.
He smiled and said: "Speaking of which, your paper is really beautifully done. One look at it and you can tell that you have put in a lot of hard work in the past."
This statement contained multiple meanings. Yuzhu was confused for a moment, so he tentatively said: "I will not hide it from Mr. Fang, but before taking the provincial examination, the student traveled to Jiuhua Academy in the south of the Yangtze River to study, and I thought he benefited a lot."
"Oh, this happened? No wonder, your article is concise and clear, and the words and sentences are also very subtle. I saw it at a glance." Liang Huinong's words may seem ordinary, but in fact, they have revealed a lot of meaning.
come out.
Many times, listening not only requires listening to the sound, but also looking at the specific demeanor and actions. Only when combined can we get the correct answer.
In some scenes, the words seem to be obscured by clouds and foggy, making people confused. However, if you think about it carefully, you will find that they are actually very knowledgeable and profound.
As Liang Huinong's fellow examiner, he was originally Yuzhu's test-recommender, but he just took one look at it and talked about it. This is quite meaningful.
On the other hand, some people do not support Yuzhu’s good article.
Yuzhu immediately understood that his so-called Jieyuan title might have caused quite a dispute in the Gongyuan, right?
It can be deduced from this that the examiner Li Guangdi was not necessarily happy to admit him as Jieyuan.
Because the only examiner who can decide who will be Jieyuan is Li Guangdi.
Who is Li Guangdi? He was a roly-poly in the Kangxi Dynasty.
According to Tang Bing's joke, Li Guangdi's habit is never to attack from the front, but to choose the right moment to kill you with a knife from behind.
In the past, the Manchu ministers were particularly discriminatory towards the Han ministers. However, they have restrained themselves a lot since Dalshou suffered a big loss.
The Minister of Rites, Dalshou, once reprimanded Li Guangdi to his face for being a treacherous villain.
Li Guangdi not only did not retaliate, but also accepted the criticism sincerely.
Not long after, Dalshou was unlucky. Not only was he dismissed from office, but his whole family was also exiled to Ninggu Pagoda.
At first, no one knew it was Li Guangdi who did it.
Only after someone was pardoned from Ninggu Pagoda and returned to Beijing did everyone know the truth.
The memorial written by Dalshou contains sentences that are not conducive to the unity of Manchu and Chinese.
Originally, Kangxi just wanted to dismiss Dalshou and keep him in office to see the consequences. The dismissal seemed like a loss of official position, but the rank was still there and he could be reinstated anytime and anywhere.
At that time, Li Guangdi happened to be on duty in the South Study Room. He only said one sentence: Manchus and Han people are as close as one family, so that the Qing Dynasty can be established forever.
So Dalshou lay down and the whole family was exiled to Ninggu Pagoda to eat the cold air.
Well, this is actually the same as everyone being afraid of Liang Jiugong.
How can the ministers in the court not make mistakes?
When you make mistakes, Liang Jiugong will be by Kangxi's side. When Kangxi gets angry, Liang Jiugong only needs to remind you of the old sins you have committed.
Hehe, the consequences of that would be very sour.
This trip is worthwhile!
After Yuzhu got this extremely important inside information, he immediately realized that the failed scholars were likely to cause trouble.
After receiving the message from Yuzhu's messenger, Long Keduo returned to the infantry commander's office without stopping and summoned his generals to discuss the matter.
The topic of the discussion was actually the same. No matter whose jurisdiction there were, if scholars who caused trouble gathered together, they would lose their lives at least, or their whole family would be killed at worst.
"Everyone, I, Long Laosan, apologize in advance. If I offend you in the future, please forgive me." As soon as Long Keduo said this, all his subordinates understood.
No matter who it is, as long as there are scholars who gather to make trouble in the jurisdiction, they are waiting to be stabbed by Long Shuai.
The death command has the highest efficiency and the greatest lethality!
The subtext is actually: No matter how great the achievements of the old subordinates were in the past, as long as there is a big mess in the jurisdiction this time, they will be completely negated!
Soon after the meeting ended, the Gongyuan of Shuntian Prefecture, in front of the Confucius Temple, in front of the major government offices, especially near the provincial halls in the south of the outer city, were instantly filled with Longkodo's patrolmen and Eight Banners soldiers.
Yuzhu, enjoying her father's meticulous care with peace of mind, without the slightest sense of guilt.
Hey, even if Yuzhu told people that he didn't rely on his father, do you think anyone would believe it?
Originally, it was a cannibalistic society where fathers were openly competed for. Whoever's father is great is your uncle. If you are not good at fathering, you have to be good at pretending to be a grandson, that's all.
Originally, the examiners of this provincial examination thought that the failed scholars would come to cause trouble.
Unexpectedly, the entire capital was surrounded by Longkodo's subordinates inside and outside the capital. Not to mention gathering people to cause trouble, even petty thieves were so frightened that they fled the capital.
For ten consecutive days, after most of the scholars from various states and counties in Shuntian Prefecture who came to Beijing to take the exams left the Forty-Nine Cities, the quasi-martial law situation inside and outside the capital was slightly relaxed.
