Zhu Yong and Zhang Fu sometimes find it difficult to understand why their eldest brother always comes with imperial edicts and seems to have received more divine grace than their fathers.
The only explanation for this is that he is the eldest brother.
At this time, the eunuch smiled and then read out the edict: "The Emperor of Heaven carries this edict: In the battle of Chengshan Guard, more than a thousand thieves were killed and countless captured. I am happy to hear the result of this battle and am very relieved. The first person to contribute in this battle is Zhang Anshi also……"
"I will give Zhang Anshi one thousand households, the town of Qixia Temple Ferry, and 30,000 acres of farmland. It's so impressive."
Zhang Anshi was confused after hearing this.
Eater?
The Ming Dynasty did have rewards for food households. For example, in the early Ming Dynasty, Li Shanchang, the first founding hero of the country, ordered him to choose a household of 30,000 people.
That is to say, Li Shanchang was asked to choose 30,000 farmers in Shandong to support him.
However, Li Shanchang decisively refused.
Since then, many heroes have followed the same example and flatly refused to eat food.
Those who really implemented the canteen system were mostly the clan kings from various places.
Of course, if only a thousand people were given to the food households, Zhang Anshi would probably feel that this was a lonely reward, and wouldn't he have to refuse it then?
But the next decree was very strange. It was actually a grant of 30,000 acres of land at the ferry crossing of Qixia Temple in Shizhen.
Zhang Anshi is now extremely familiar with the situation in the Ming Dynasty. He has heard about the Shi Zhen in Yunnan, and also heard about the Shi Zhen in Guizhou. After the capital of the Ming Dynasty moved north, there was also the Shi Zhen in Nanjing.
After all, these places are either unconsolidated frontiers or important central places. The imperial court must have ministers guard all sides to prevent changes.
What the hell is Qixia in Keshi Town?
That place is as big as a palm.
As for the grant of 30,000 acres of land, it is equivalent to an incidental reward.
All in all, Zhang Anshi felt bad.
Originally, at this time, he should have flatly refused to give the food households one thousand.
Now even this procedure is omitted.
The most important thing is to arrange him at the largest ferry near Nanjing. Isn't it clear that he will teach him to strengthen the brothers' shipping industry? He is working for His Majesty, the major shareholder.
So he immediately accepted the order and thanked him for the grace.
Immediately, he sent the eunuch back to resume his duties.
Zhu Yong and Zhang Fu gathered around him: "Big brother, big brother..."
Zhang Anshi just said: "Go and watch Gu Xingzu carefully and don't be too troublesome. Come with me to Qixia tomorrow and let's do great things."
"good."
…………
"Your Majesty, Zhang Anshi has accepted the order."
Zhu Di was holding a red pen and dealing with the memorials sent to him. Without raising his eyes, he just hummed and said casually: "Didn't you refuse to eat?"
"No."
Zhu Di said: "In the past decades, all the meritorious ministers of the country have refused to eat households."
Behind him are the three villains, each carrying their own baggage.
After arriving here, Zhang Anshi realized why there were 30,000 acres of land here, plus a thousand diners.
Aren’t these all copied from Shenjiazhuang?
Those lands are the land of the Shen family.
The so-called food households are the tenant farmers of the Shen family.
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Anshi came to Shenjiazhuang, where there were still traces of half of it being blown up.
Such a huge Zhuangzi was in a state of desolation due to the explosion and the conviction of the original owners of the Shen family.
Then Zhang Anshi howled: "Oh my god, I'm so stupid! I only knew that it was Shenjiazhuang that was bombed, so I had a great time. I didn't expect that this village would be given to me by your Majesty in the end. It was like blowing up my own village." , I was so confused, I was so happy for several days!"
Zhu Yong and Zhang Fu stepped forward to comfort Zhang Anshi: "Brother, it's okay to be more generous."
Zhang Anshi said distressedly: "It's not your house that was blown up, it was my village, mine!"
Qiu Song sniffed and said: "It's been blown up like this, and no one can live in it. Otherwise, the other half should be blown up as well."
Zhang Anshi felt that the world was spinning. It was such a big house. Although Qixia was only a suburb of the city, it was still close to the city of Nanjing after all. This was such a big house next to the capital and at the feet of the emperor. How much would it cost to rebuild it?
"Hey..." Zhang Anshi sighed and said: "Good luck and misfortune are unpredictable, life is unpredictable, brothers, don't be ashamed, I can bear it."
Zhu Yong and Zhang Fu both lowered their heads in shame. When the house exploded, they also had a share.
Soon, the local land security guard came and stepped forward to salute.
Zhang Anshi asked right away: "Where are all my diners?"
The local security guard said: "They are all in two surrounding villages, one with the surname Song and the other with the surname Yang. There are a total of 1,321 households, and there are 2,325 Dingkou."
Zhang Anshi nodded with satisfaction: "I'll call some of their leading elders later. I want to give them a lecture."
The land security guard nodded repeatedly.
Zhang Anshi added: "I have been ordered to stay here forever. From now on, our Zhang family will settle down and live here for generations to come. Let me ask you, who has the best reputation near Qixia?"
The land security guard immediately said: "Of course it's you, uncle."
Zhang Anshi directly kicked him over and cursed: "I'm asking who is the most famous and the most vicious person here besides me."
"There is a man nicknamed Zhentian Tiger. He is a well-known rogue in this place. Everyone is afraid of him."
Zhang Anshi laughed: "This guy is more vicious than us. It's just him. Brothers, let me arrest him."
This ferry is quite lively. After all, it is close to the Yangtze River and Jiuxiang River. Therefore, in addition to the pier, there are also some shops.
Soon after, the clanging sound of gongs was heard in the market.
Everyone didn't know what was going on and came to see it one after another.
Soon, Zhu Yong was seen dragging a naked man over.
When everyone took a closer look at this man, his body shook, and it turned out to be a Sky-shattering Tiger.
Zhentianhu was a well-known bully. Every morning, he would first go to the tea shop to drink tea, and then he would take his brothers to wander around the ferry and the market. Anyone who dared to look at him would go up to him.
, he would cause trouble even if he had nothing to do. At night, he would invite people to gamble and make a lot of money.
Who knew that while drinking tea today, he would be dragged out of the tea shop by two young men. Several of his waiters tried to stop him and even took out daggers. Who knew that the other party was even more ruthless, taking out a knife and cutting him down in front of his face?
Two of them were lying on the ground and howling.
Zhentianhu shouted angrily: "Who dares to kidnap me? If you have the ability, tell me your name."
At this time, more and more people gathered here.
Immediately, Zhang Anshi walked out calmly, approached him, raised his hand and slapped him: "How dare you, mother, be so presumptuous in front of me!"
Zhentianhu was beaten so hard that stars appeared in his eyes. Looking at the ferocious young man in front of him, he felt ashamed and angry: "When my brother comes... I promise to teach you..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Anshi raised his leg and kicked him in the lower back.
Poor Zhentianhu was pinned down by the stronger Zhu Yong and Zhang Fu, unable to move. Zhang Anshi's kick was impartial.
Then, the Thunderous Tiger roared loudly.
"You...you dare to do this..."
Zhang Anshi smiled and said: "I heard that you also open a gambling house?"
Shocking Tiger's forehead was sweating in pain, but he gritted his teeth and endured it. After all, he was a gangster on the street and had a very tough mouth. He yelled: "So what?"
Zhang Anshi pointed in the distance: "Is your gambling house over there?"
Zhentianhu gritted his teeth and said, "Do you dare to let me go to the gambling house to call someone if you have the ability?"
Zhang Anshi looked at him mockingly and said: "No need. You no longer have a gambling house, your home is gone."
Just saying...
In the distance, there was a roar and fire shot into the sky.
When the merchants and people who gathered around took a look, they saw thick smoke billowing in the direction of the gambling house.
For a moment, everyone was shocked.
This Sky-shattering Tiger is feared by everyone at Qixia Ferry, and everyone is afraid of it like a tiger. Who knew... even its nest was blown up today.
Zhang Anshi took advantage of Zhentianhu's shock and slapped him again.
Snapped……
Zhang Anshi said: "Do you know who I am?"
Zhentianhu was about to faint at this moment. After living for most of his life, almost all his wealth was in that gambling house. Who knew... it suddenly exploded.
I saw Zhang Anshi saying: "We are the three villains in the capital. I heard that in Qixia, you are more vicious than us, so I came to see you today. Come on, brothers, you don't have to be moral when dealing with such bullies, come with me."
Zhang Fu and Zhu Yong immediately pushed him to the ground and beat him hard.
Zhang Anshi said: "Don't hit him on the body, hit him on the face, until I beat his face to pieces!"
So Zhang Fu knelt on Zhentianhu's neck and slapped Zhentianhu's face one after another.
The Thunderous Tiger howled: "Spare your life, spare your life, Grandpa, the three most evil villains in the capital..."
Unfortunately, no one paid attention to him.
The merchants and people looked at it in horror. This ferry had long heard of the names of the three murderers in the capital. They heard that even Shenjiazhuang was bombed. Today, they saw the previously arrogant Zhentianhu being beaten in such a humiliating manner.
It was inexplicable horror.
Zhang Anshi clasped his hands behind his back and said: "Have you all seen it? What a Sky-shattering Tiger and a Hunjiang Dragon. From now on, at this ferry, we are the only three murderers in the capital. Who dares to disobey, or who dares to imitate this Sky-shaking Tiger?"
, I blew up his house and killed his whole family."
After a pause, Zhang Anshi continued: "I, the three villains in the capital, only have one rule here, that is, everyone must be honest and honest to me. Don't think that at this ferry, there are any three religions and nine schools, so you can be arrogant.
As long as you are in this realm, your grandfather, even Ying Tianfu Yin, will have to lie down for me, otherwise, this Earthquake Tiger will set a precedent."
The merchants and the people who were watching were afraid to show their anger.
They have never seen anything more ferocious than the Titanic Tiger.
Poor Zhentian Tiger, his head was beaten into a pig's head.
Immediately, Zhang Anshi had people set up a cross wooden frame at the intersection of the street, and asked people to tie the Thunderous Tiger up and expose it to the sun. He also hung a sign around his neck: "Three brothers from the capital are here for a visit."
After everything was done, Zhang Anshi clapped his hands and looked at his masterpiece. At this time, Zhang Anshi had to admire himself. The three brothers in Beijing were doing a good job in doing justice for heaven.
At this time, people on and off the ferry were already trembling with fear.
Zhang Anshi said: "This bitch dares to claim to be a tiger, so he must be a bad person. He will be exposed to the sun for three days. If he survives, I will spare his life. If he dies, he will die. All credits are owed to this person."
Anyone who files gambling house accounts will be free of charge!"
Pornography, gambling and drugs do not separate families.
What people like Zhentianhu are best at doing is attracting people to gamble, then lend money, and then teach people to use their wives and daughters to pay off the debts.
This bet is called a pleasant gamble, but in fact, how many of the people who get caught up in it can hold on to it? Over time, their families will inevitably be wiped out.
Now that debts are being directly forgiven, many people took a breath! My dear, these young men in front of me are not only ruthless people, but they have saved many lives.
I saw Zhang Anshi saying again: "Whoever dares to demand repayment of gambling debts in this world from now on, please tell me that this time our three murderers were lighthearted, and next time they won't be so polite."
After a while, the local guardian brought some elderly people among the food households. These people were all well-known in the village or clan.
Originally, most of these people were tenants of the Shen family, but now they came to see them with trepidation.
Zhang Anshi glanced at them, clasped his hands behind his back, and said in front of everyone: "Your Majesty gave me 30,000 acres of land, and your two tribes have 1,321 households, right?"
The first one was named Song Lian, who seemed to be an old scholar. However, he was a scholar of the Yuan Dynasty and was not recognized by the Ming Dynasty.
So he hung out with the Shen family and was responsible for helping the Shen family manage the farm.
At this time, Song Lian was very happy when he heard that a new master had arrived, and he could take care of things again.
He saluted Zhang Anshi politely: "Exactly."
Zhang Anshi said: "Do you all know how to measure land?"
"The people who come here are all elders, they have quite a bit of prestige, and they are also proficient in arithmetic."
Zhang Anshi said: "Very good, then you people will be responsible for measuring the land. These 30,000 acres of land will be equally divided into 1,321 shares and distributed to others for farming. I will not collect rent, as long as
Just pay 10% of my annual harvest as a food tax. These lands... will belong to the big guys from now on."
When Song Lian heard this, he was immediately shocked.
Only the food tax is collected... and the harvest is 10% as usual. How can such a good thing happen in the world? Doesn't it mean that every household gets more than 20 acres of land?
So, Song Lian's mind became active, and it would be best to leave this matter to him. He smiled and said: "I will definitely handle it well."
Zhang Anshi looked at Song Lian with a strange look, and said solemnly: "You won't take advantage of the land division to be greedy, will you?"
"No, I don't dare."
"I forgive you and you don't dare to bully me, the three evil men in the capital, otherwise, just like this Shenjiazhuang and this Zhentian Tiger, they will kill your whole family."
Hearing this, Song Lian subconsciously raised his head and glanced at the Zhentian Tiger hanging on the wooden shelf, and was suddenly shocked.
And Zhang Anshi said again: "After you have divided the one thousand three hundred and twenty-one, let others choose the fields first. When everyone has chosen the fields, you who measure the land will choose the last field. That's it.
Do you have any comments?"
Song Lian: "..."
This time, all of Song Lian's maneuverable space was blocked.
But at this time, he still dared to say no.
Zhang Anshi said: "Now that you know, get out of here. I'm a great scholar, so that's okay, but my brother has a bad temper, so don't be an eyesore here."
Song Lian quickly ran away with a group of senior citizens.
The people nearby heard this, and did not expect such a good thing to happen. They whispered for a while, how could they not even collect the rent...
Zhang Anshi then said: "From now on, if the surname is Zhang here, those who behave themselves will have meat to eat. If you don't obey the rules and dare to make trouble here, I will teach you how to write the word "death". Let's go!"
The three murderers in the capital walked away as if they didn't recognize their relatives.
But what happened in Qixia has attracted a lot of discussion.
This is no small matter, blowing up gambling houses, killing people, and dividing the land all at once.
There was discussion all over the capital and privately.
The nearby tenants only regret that they are not the Zhang family's diners.
Some gentry listened and just sneered.
At Yingtian Mansion, the bodies were collected by the Decepticons.
After all, the Decepticons did not survive the three days, and now they have become insects.
The rogues who were originally entrenched here dispersed in a rush.
Ying Tianfu Yin wrote a memorial expressing his concerns about Qixia Ferry.
Zhu Di received the memorial and saw explosions and killings. He couldn't help frowning: "The three murderers in the capital have done these things again. I can't wait to lock those three bastards in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment forever."
"Your Majesty, I heard that the situation is fierce." Yi Shiha said: "The officials are making a fierce fuss. Zhou Kang, the magistrate of Shangyuan County, even said that he would resign."
Qixia Ferry belongs to Shangyuan County, and Zhu Di heard that the official reputation of Shangyuan County magistrate is good, and he is a kind and honest elder.
Zhu Di just said: "Well, I understand."
Yi Shiha fell silent.
Zhu Di said, "Do you have anything to say?"
"This servant is thinking that your majesty letting Zhang Anshi control Qixia Ferry may... not necessarily be good for Zhang Anshi. This place is under the jurisdiction of Jingxian County, and many people are watching. This is tantamount to making Zhang Anshi offend hundreds of officials. If your majesty loves Zhang Anshi, you can make him
Acting in the military."
Zhu Di smiled and said with a hint of mystery: "You only know one, but not the other. The ferry is a good thing. You will understand it later."
Yi Shiha said: "Your majesty is wise, since you have a profound meaning, then you are just talking too much."
Zhu Di changed the subject and said, "How are the prince's preparations for the imperial examination?"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has worked very hard and has always dealt with the matter in a very appropriate manner."
Zhu Di said: "You don't have to speak for him. When trouble occurs, I will teach you how to end it."
Yi Shiha then hurriedly bowed down and said: "Actually...actually...there is indeed a lot of controversy. Nowadays, people are talking about it. There are rumors outside. Many people from the north and the south...have criticisms, slave.
I’m worried that something will happen again when the rankings are released.”
Zhu Di nodded: "Let's wait and see what happens."
Zhu Di wanted to see Zhu Gaochi's adaptability and decisiveness at this time.
Yishi Hagan smiled and said: "I heard that the supervisors of Guozixue Zhengyi Hall also applied for the exam."
"That...that..."
"Yes, it is the grandson of Gu Cheng."
After Zhu Di heard this, he laughed: "Haha... this damn thing... can it be done?"
"Yes, it's possible. Supervising students has the same reputation as being elected, but it's just that from the Hall of Justice... no one has ever taken the exam."
Zhu Di smiled again: "His ambition is commendable."
Seeing that the emperor was happy, Shiha also became happy too.
…………
The articles written by Gu Xingzu are actually getting more and more difficult.
Especially the dazzling variety of cut-off questions, which are almost to the point of perversion.
Learning is painful.
But when a person... studies to the point where he forgets to sleep and eat, or even becomes numb.
Gu Xingzu has begun to taste some sweetness gradually.
This is the truth that comes after all hardships.
When a person is familiar with the various ways of writing questions in the Eight-part essay, he also memorizes the Four Books, Five Classics, and Zhu Xi's Annotations by heart.
As he was still writing various cut-off topics every day, Gu Xingzu actually began to develop some strange feelings of exhilaration.
"Happy, happy, I have finished writing another article, haha..." Gu Xingzu laughed wildly.
As a result, Zhang Fu, who was guarding him, had his eyes a little straight.
"This question is still a bit easy, but my article is still a little bit weak, so when it comes to answering the question... it's a bit unsustainable. I can't do whatever I want with such an easy question..."
He blames himself.
But then he cheered up and said, "Let me make another article. Compare the two articles to see which one is better."
Zhang Fu couldn't help but touch his head to see if there was anything wrong with him.
Gu Xingzu ignored Zhang Fu and continued to splash ink.
The most important thing about several months of closed training was that Gu Xingzu completely put aside the interference from the outside world.
These few months were so long that Gu Xingzu had forgotten about the outside world. In his current small world, all that was left was reading and writing.
After experiencing pain and suffering, he has now developed an immunity to these boring and tormenting situations.
People are always good at finding joy in suffering.
Immediately afterwards, the imperial court began to release Enke's examination papers, and the date for the imperial examination was also selected.
This is a day for countless people gathered in the capital to celebrate together. The three-year period has arrived.
But this didn't seem to have any impact on Gu Xingzu.
He still continued to make fuss and was beaten occasionally.
On the last day of the examination, Zhang Anshi actually became kind and gave Gu Xingzu a day off.
Gu Xingzu returned home.
At this time, Gu Cheng looked at his grandson lovingly, hugged him again and again, and said: "Studying must be very hard, grandson, my grandpa will take you to play today. What do you want to play?"
Gu Xingzu shook his head and said, "I still have one question that I haven't solved yet. This question is too difficult. I don't want to play. If I don't solve it, I won't be able to sleep."
Gu Cheng's body suddenly shook. He felt that he no longer recognized his grandson.
"Then...what do you want to eat?"
"You can eat anything..." Gu Xingzu said casually.
With that said, he quickly returned to his study at home and began to think hard.
The questions were so difficult that Yang Shiqi thought he would go blind.
Because it was impossible to ask such a question in the imperial examination, Yang Shiqi felt that he was doing useless work.
But Gu Xingzu still thought about it deeply.
He is used to doing questions.
I even felt the fun of doing the questions.
This question is known as a three-part question.
In other words, it is a combination of three words extracted from the Four Books and Five Classics.
Just like the compositions of later generations, the general composition is my father.
But what if the topic becomes ‘Dad eats on the plane’?
The scary thing is that for such a question, you have to meet the purpose of the imperial examination. You have to combine the three to finally write an article full of benevolence, justice and morality.
And it is required that within 800 words, there can be no more words and no less words.
Yang Shiqi once suspected that Zhang Anshi was a pervert, but no evidence was found yet.
But Gu Xingzu... is still thinking hard now.
Gu Cheng did not dare to disturb Gu Xingzu.
It's just that this honorable minister who guards the nobles, mounts his horse to manage the troops, and dismounts his horse to control the people, is squatting on the steps outside the study.
It was late at night, and I looked at the lights in the study.
He couldn't help sighing and sighing, that Zhang Anshi is so real, I feel relieved to leave my grandson to him.
The only flaw... is that the grandson... seems to be a little too hard.
At midnight, Gu Cheng, who was squatting outside, began to feel sleepy and take a nap.
Suddenly, a cry came from the study.
Gu Cheng was startled and rushed in quickly: "Grandson, what's wrong with grandson?"
"Grandpa, I'm done, I'm done." Gu Xingzu leaned on the document and cried loudly.
Seeing his grandson crying so sadly, Gu Cheng panicked and said, "What happened? Is it over?"
Gu Xingzu said with tears streaming down his face: "I can't solve this question. I'm breaking my head thinking about it. I solved it once before, but it was not satisfactory... I can't write a better article."
"Hey..." Gu Cheng finally felt relieved, touched his head, and said lovingly: "Hey, our Gu family is not one of those scholarly families, so it's more or less the same."
He paused and then continued happily: "I know that you have worked hard, which is enough. You have such a heart. Even if I am dead now, I am satisfied. As for writing, that is the work of the scholars."
They are really great at this matter. Our Gu family has not produced a single scholar for eighteen generations, so how can you make such a big deal?"
"How can this article be so easy to write? Look at me, although I can read and hyphen, but when it comes to writing this article for the imperial examination, haha... I can't even understand the eight-legged essay. Don't cry. You're done like this.
This makes me very happy."
However, Gu Xingzu shook his head like a rattle: "I...I can't study. I...I...I'm sorry, doctor, the doctor will beat me."
Gu Cheng comforted him again: "Grandson, it's okay. Just do your best. Go to bed early and don't break your body."
Gu Xingzu held back his tears and was still twitching, but said: "Yes, I have to take the exam tomorrow, so I'm going to sleep! But I'm too ashamed and can't do anything..."
He murmured.
Gu Cheng sighed: "Our Gu family are not good at studying. Don't you still know about the eighteenth generation of your ancestors? As for the imperial examination... Dr. Zhang just asked you to take the test at will. Don't take it to heart."
.”
That night, Gu Xingzu went to bed.
Gu Cheng, however, couldn't sleep, tossing and turning.
By early morning the next day.
The disciple came in a hurry and woke up Gu Xingzu first, saying that Dr. Zhang and others were waiting outside.
Gu Xingzu got up hurriedly and prepared the test basket and the name card for the test.
Gu Cheng also got up, but in a flash, he saw his grandson running away.
Gu Xingzu got on the car, and Zhang Anshi and others were crowded in the car.
Zhang Anshi shouted: "Today I will make a rule. Before the exam is over, no one is allowed to hit Gu Xingzu, especially not to pat his head. This is what I said."
Zhang Fu was about to flick Gu Xingzu's head, but under Zhang Anshi's fierce gaze, he quickly retracted his hand.
Zhang Anshi patted Gu Xingzu on the shoulder and said: "Take the exam well, we support you."
Gu Xingzu said ashamedly: "I'm afraid I didn't do well in the exam. Last night...last night I didn't write the article well."
Zhang Anshi then scolded: "Look at these three villains. They can't even read a few Chinese characters. Aren't they living shamelessly in this world? You have to cheer up. Believe me, those scholars... they know nothing about imperial examinations and stereotyped writing. You must
OK."
Gu Xingzu could only nod.
The examination room is in Gongyuan.
After going through the procedures of body search, identity check, etc., Gu Xingzu followed the flow of people and entered the examination room.
Sitting in the examination booth, he was still thinking about the unsolved questions from yesterday.
The imperial examination lasted for three days...
The examiner Xie Jin and others were already in place, and a cannon sounded.
Immediately afterwards, literary officials appeared in one examination booth after another holding question boards.
The topic is out.
"Government with virtue"!
Gu Xingzu couldn't help but stare at the test questions with dumbfounded eyes.
This question...is really no different from 'my dad'.
So much so that Gu Xingzu was a little confused.
He had forgotten when he took such an easy question.
That's it……
Are you using this to fool me?
Gu Xingzu held it steadily and immediately started grinding the ink.
But he still felt unbelievable in his heart.
At least in his small environment, such questions were for beginners.
The lowest level of difficulty is also a cut-off question.
"Should I tell the examiner that this question is too easy and will not show my true ability?" Gu Xingzu thought to himself.
But in the end he chose not to cause trouble.
Forget it, just answer the question as soon as you finish it. I still have to rush back to finish yesterday’s question!
For three days in a row, time seemed to fly by.
The exam is over.
All the candidates swarmed out of the examination room.
Although the content of the three-day exam is different, in fact, the exam at this time is already a lifelong essay.
So almost all the candidates were sour, but they were talking about this year's eight-legged essay.
"I really didn't expect this question. I never thought that the scholar would have such a difficult problem. Alas... this is to govern with virtue... it's too difficult."
Another person shook his head and said: "I am somewhat sure about this question, but... I couldn't figure out which chapter of the Analects this came from. By the time I thought of it, it was already too late, so I muddleheadedly wrote one.
The article, I’m afraid it will fall into disrepute this time too.”
Of course, there are some that are quite certain.
Several candidates from Jiangxi gathered together, all of them were in high spirits.
The first person was Zeng Qi. Zeng Qi was also from Jishui County, Jiangxi Province, and had always been a talented scholar in Jishui.
As we all know, when you are a talented person in Jishui County, you are actually probably the best person in the world.
The other person is Zhou Shu, also from Jishui County.
There is also a man named Zhou Mengjian. These three people are called the most famous figures in Jishui County at the moment.
There are a few others including Yang Xiang. Although they are all from Jiangxi, they are not from Jishui.
After everyone finished the exam, they met and came out. Zeng Qi held up his long sleeves and a test blue. Zhou Shu bowed to him and saluted: "Brother Zi Qi, how did you do in the exam?"
Zeng Qi smiled bitterly and said, "Hey, I didn't do well in the exam. I'm really ashamed. Where is my good brother?"
Zhou Shu also regretfully said: "It's still the same, with unfamiliar writing and ink that makes people laugh."
On the other side, Zhou Mengjian lamented: "Yes, this year's exam questions were so difficult, I almost failed to pass the exam."
Yang Xiangze said with a Taihe accent that was different from those of other Jishui people: "It seems that I am going to lose my reputation."
At this time, a voice came up and said, "I think it's very easy."
