Many people rushed to the notice board at the gate of Gongyuan.
Originally, most of the candidates felt that they were "unappreciated" and oppressed. Now I heard that a child under ten years old passed the county examination. Is this okay?
There must be some inside story!
If you don’t ask, you won’t know. If you ask, you will be shocked.
Zhu Hao, the leader of this county, is the boy who made a bet with Fan Yikuan, the official of Zhouxuexue. I heard that he is still studying in the royal palace and has a teacher-student relationship with Fan Yikuan. What's even more terrible is that Fan Yikuan is actually the marking officer of this county examination?
Isn't this the inside story?
…
…
“So lively.”
When Tang Yin, Lu Song and Jiang Lun, three drinking friends, arrived at the Gongyuan, the area around the Gongyuan was so crowded that it was so crowded that there was no place to set foot.
Jiang Lun smiled and asked: "Is it always so lively when the county test results are released?"
Tang Yin shook his head. He had never taken the imperial examination locally, so how could he know what the county examination in Changshou County was like?
However, Huguang is originally a major imperial examination province in the south. I think the teaching quality is good and there are a lot of scholars. Although there are quotas for the government and college examinations, for basic examinations like the county examination, only scholars can register. Those who want to participate, please read more
Naturally, there will be more people releasing the results.
"Be sure to ask the Honshu Confucianism Office for clarification!"
"It's better to go to the state government office to cause trouble. Why is it that a child got the first prize?"
"Let's go too..."
Because the matter spread quickly, it seemed that everyone knew the details of Zhu Hao, and felt that there must be something behind the fact that a child had taken away the first place in the county for the only one who would be recommended as a nurse...
How could this situation not cause trouble?
If you don't make a fuss, you will only suffer losses in vain. If you make a fuss, you won't blame the public. It is best to remove Zhu Hao's name from the list. Even if it is not him who replaces him, he will have to let out the bad breath in his heart.
"what's the situation?"
Jiang Lun looked like he was watching the fun.
Lu Song frowned: "It sounds like... a child won the county examination, could it be Master Zhu?"
Tang Yin smiled and said: "In this county examination, he is the only child under ten years old, and with his talent and learning, he can win the imperial examination or two. But it is not difficult at all to suppress the Confucian students in the county who take the child examination."
Jiang Lun was overjoyed when he heard this: "That means that Zhu Hao not only successfully passed the county examination, but also won the county title? Brother Bohu, congratulations to Jiang. You have trained such a good disciple. You are truly a famous teacher."
A great disciple!"
"No, I don't dare to take it seriously." Tang Yin still acted very modestly.
Zhu Hao is my disciple? Forget it! Even if I wanted to be his husband, that guy would not be willing to be my student. It would be better to be my friend.
His mentor loves so-and-so, just don’t say it’s me.
"Let's go up and have a look. Zhu Hao won the county examination. Doesn't that mean the student didn't run away? He is only... nine years old, right?" Jiang Lun was very happy.
He doesn't care how other people criticize him. If a child from the royal palace wins the county title, your criticism will be in vain. Zhu Hao is still considered a disciple of Prince Xing's palace no matter how much you say. How can you suppress him just by suppressing him?
Lu Song looked around at the many Confucian scholars who were furious and worried: "It is reasonable for Master Zhu to pass the county examination, but if the chief executive of Zhongxian County talks about it, I am afraid that the local scholars will make a big fuss, and it will not be good at that time."
end."
Tang Yin said: "Zhu Haocai is here to learn. The articles he wrote are sophisticated and far beyond ordinary people. There is no need to worry too much... Let's go over there first to verify it."
…
…
Zhu Haozhong County Chief Executive Officer is just performing normally. As long as they know Zhu Hao's true level, such as Tang Yin and Yuan Zonggao, they think it is normal.
Even Fan Yikuan, who had not been in contact with Zhu Hao for a long time, thought that Zhu Hao's talents and learning were superior to ordinary Confucian students after seeing Zhu Hao's articles. In addition, the county examination only tests fluent sentences, neat handwriting, and basic skills.
Use words to make sentences...
Fan Yikuan serves as a scholar in the Prefectural Confucian Academy. What kind of students have he never seen?
Even though it may be a little controversial to judge the superiority of two excellent articles, but it is not difficult to tell the difference between a good article and some sleazy articles... right?
The problem is that the Confucian scholars in this county have never read Zhu Hao's masterpieces. Who is willing to accept that he has studied hard for more than ten or even decades in a poor family, and he can't even compare with a nine-year-old child?
In addition, Zhu Hao's identity is too special. He is both a companion of the royal family and a child of the Zhu family of thousands of royal guards. In addition, Zhu Hao is also a student of Fan Yikuan, the chief marking officer of this county examination. It is difficult not to let people think about him.
, doubting whether there is a behind-the-scenes operation.
Early in the morning, Yu San put aside his work in the troupe and ran to see the results. When he learned that Zhu Hao had not only passed the county examination, but was also the first in the county examination, he ran non-stop to Zhu Niang to report the good news.
It wasn't for asking for reward, he was really happy for Zhu Hao.
Zhu Niang didn't sleep well last night. She knew that the results of the county test would be released today, and she also knew that this might be related to her son's decision of whether to practice martial arts or pursue a career in literature in the future, and whether his life in the small courtyard could remain peaceful in the future... This is simply worse than the parents of students.
I am still nervous waiting for the results of the high school entrance examination and college entrance examination.
The person she was waiting for first was not Yu San, but shopkeeper Ma who was in town for business.
"My boss, I am here for the mirror business. I need to have a detailed discussion with the young boss. Would it be convenient for you to inform the young boss and ask him to come out of the palace to see you?"
Ma Yan came to the city mainly because of the Ouyang family's affairs.
Because there were some things that were not convenient for him to tell Zhu Niang, he asked Zhu Hao by name.
Zhu Niang said: "Xiaohao has been preparing for the county exam these two days and will not be back for two days. If shopkeeper Ma is in a hurry to find him, just go directly to the palace. You can inform the guard guarding the west gate of the palace and the news will be released."
Bring it to.”
Shopkeeper Ma shook his head helplessly and was about to leave the shop when he opened the door and found many people gathered at the door.
"This is it..."
Scholars in the city had extensive information channels. After learning that Zhu Hao had been elected to the county office, some went to the state government office to make trouble, some stayed in front of the Gongyuan gate, and some went directly to Zhu Hao's home.
Of course, they would not dare to go to Prince Xing's Mansion to cause trouble unless they no longer wanted to live.
Zhu Niang saw a large area of darkness in front of the door and a group of Confucian scholars gathered together. She was filled with indignation and shouted random slogans. She was a little confused. Fortunately, the shop was not open for business now. Since Shopkeeper Ma couldn't leave the front door, she was ready to
Go through the back door instead.
At this moment, Yu San squeezed out of the crowd and quickly got into the shop before Madam Zhu closed the door.
"Yu San, why did you come here in such a hurry?" Zhu Niang asked curiously.
Yu San was panting and couldn't even take a breath, so he said in surprise: "Third Madam, brother Hao passed the county examination and won the county title."
When Zhu Niang heard that her son had passed the county examination, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. A big stone fell in her heart, and her eyes filled with tears in the blink of an eye. She almost went to the ancestral hall to tell her late husband, as for the county chief
...From her point of view, she didn't study it very thoroughly.
Thinking about it, it is understandable that at Zhu Hao's age, it is unbelievable to take the county examination. How could anyone tell her what would happen if she came first in the county examination? She thought that she was just ranked high and was no different from barely passing.
But Shopkeeper Ma exclaimed: "My little boss is really talented. He passed the county examination at a young age... My boss, congratulations on having a scholar in your house."
Zhu Niang was puzzled.
You have just passed the county examination and you want to be a scholar?
Is it too early?
Yu San was overjoyed: "Madam, according to the usual practice, as long as you win the county examination and make no big mistakes in the subsequent government and college examinations, you can enter school as usual and become a scholar in one go. This is tantamount to
Say, Brother Hao is now considered half a scholar..."
Zhu Niang was shocked when she heard this.
Can it still be like this?
I just passed the county examination and have already been recommended as a student?
Didn't this happiness come too quickly?
The noise outside became louder and louder, and it was obvious that more scholars came to make trouble.
Aunt Li ran out from inside and asked, "What's going on with the commotion outside?"
Zhu Niang was a little unsteady on her feet and stammered: "They said it was Xiao Hao... who won the county prize. He also said that he didn't need to take the exam in the future and could directly become a scholar..."
"Be good, ma'am, am I not dreaming?"
Aunt Li was stunned when she heard this.
Yesterday the family was worried about whether Zhu Hao could pass the county examination, but today they can celebrate becoming a student? Doesn't it mean that there will be prefectural and hospital examinations later?
Shopkeeper Ma smiled and said: "Two madams, it seems that the scholars outside are dissatisfied. They feel that Xiaodong's passing the county examination may be a secret exchange. But they also know that Xiaodong is studying in the palace and has a strong background.
Even if we are surrounded by people at the door, we don’t dare to rush in and cause trouble. I’ll take my leave first, and we’ll talk about business matters later.”
Suddenly, Shopkeeper Ma felt that business was not important anymore.
Isn't it just a dispute with the Ouyang family over a few hundred taels of silver? For Zhu Niang and her son, that little money is also called money? Compared with the big business with Su Xigui, it is just a little pocket money.
Besides, the most important thing for the third branch of the Zhu family now is Zhu Hao's passing the county examination. It's better not to be an eyesore here and just go back and do your job well.
"Shopkeeper Ma, don't leave through the front door. Use the back door. I'll take you there."
Yu San was considered an old acquaintance in this courtyard, and he quickly left with Shopkeeper Ma in a familiar way.
…
…
Zhu Family Manor.
Zhu Wanquan came back in a hurry. He was going to talk to his second brother Zhu Wanjian about the affairs of the head of Zhu Haozhong County, but he was told that Zhu Wanjian and Liu Guanjia had gone into the city, so he hurried to see Zhu Jia.
When the old lady saw her son walking in a hurry, she looked unhappy and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Mom, I just learned in the city that the third brother's child, Zhu Hao, ranked first in the first county examination. According to the rules, the subsequent prefectural and college examinations will be attended as usual.
, I will definitely become a student in the end..."
Zhu Wanquan thought this was a major event worthy of celebration by the entire Zhu family.
But when the old lady heard these words, her face became extremely dark.
Just when Zhu Wanquan felt that he had said something wrong, he heard Zhu Jiashi slap his hand on the table and shouted sternly: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! He has only been in elementary school for two years...less than two years, why?
Is it possible to pass the exam to become the county chief?”
Zhu Wanquan said: "Mother, I have verified that it is indeed my nephew."
Mrs. Zhu Jia gritted her teeth: "It must be a trick played by people in the palace. They used connections to promote Zhu Hao as the head of the county, so that he could leave the palace and go to study elsewhere. In this way, my Zhu family would have less eyes and ears in the palace..."
