Jinyi champion

Chapter 401 This Is Called Enlightenment

Two days before the first round of the township examination, nothing happened.

The sun is hot every day, and there is no sign of rain at all. The airtight space exacerbates the feeling of stuffiness. Fortunately, this place is along the river, and it is already mid-August. Once the sun sets, the temperature drops immediately. The test shed is quite comfortable.

If it is placed in Fujian or Guangdong, it is estimated that sooner or later it will be like a steamer, and the whole body will be soaked.

On the third day of the exam, the examinees became visibly nervous.

The field patrol officer entered the examination room early in the morning and accepted candidates to hand in papers at any time.

Zhu Hao finished transcribing the paper the previous afternoon, and checked it several times again this morning.

Seeing someone coming in to collect the papers, Zhu Hao checked it again, felt that everything was safe, and immediately applied for handing in the papers.

When he walked out of the test booth, Zhu Hao suddenly found that he was the first to hand in the paper... Right now, his biggest thought is to leave this ghost place as soon as possible, even though he knows he will come back this afternoon.

……

……

Zhu Hao came to the entrance of the examination room and waited for the release.

After a while, Sun Ru appeared from another test booth, followed by a candidate. Seeing how they were whispering, they should be acquaintances.

The examinee had a hippie smile, his face full of teasing expressions, and he kept talking, as if he was making fun of Sun Ru, but he didn't dare to make any noise because he didn't leave the examination room.

When Sun Ru saw Zhu Hao, his eyes were wide open, he was shocked with admiration, and he seemed impatient to tell his husband... Sir, you bet a total of twelve questions, and you hit two, and you also wrote down the model essay to force Let me recite it, it is simply the guiding light of my life.

But this is the examination room, Sun Ru didn't dare to speak out, his mouth was tightly shut, and it seemed that he was enduring it very hard. At this time, the examinee beside him was still chattering non-stop.

When the gate of the tribute courtyard opened, Zhu Hao and Sun Ru were the first to leave the examination room.

"Master Zhu, you really have taken in a high-ranking apprentice... He told me just now that he performed very well in this provincial examination, and he will definitely be able to pass high school. Then I'm here to wish you both masters and apprentices on the list, the best! Next year, I will be admitted as a Jinshi...hahaha..."

Speaking of the latter, the candidate was amused by his own humor, but Sun Ru didn't notice it at all, grinning happily.

Zhu Hao thought to himself, no wonder you are always used as a joke by others, and you don't react at all when you are emotionally laughed at by others. This mentality...is quite good, at least it doesn't offend others.

Finally say goodbye to that person.

When he reached the corner of the street and there was no one around, Sun Ru said with a pleasant face, "Men, you are really a god, this big competition..."

"Didn't you just hit two questions? What's so strange?"

Zhu Hao didn't want to get too entangled with Sun Ru, "I said, Sun Ru, you have to remember, you and I know about this matter, don't tell the third person, otherwise people will think I got the exam questions from somewhere."

"Yes Yes."

Sun Ru is not stupid anymore.

Zhu Hao can see that this Sun Ru has a good face and likes to put on airs in front of others. Whoever says a few nice words to him, he can treat them as a confidant. as a joke.

But in terms of telling right from wrong, at least in the past few years under Zhu Hao's cultivation, Sun Ru has made great progress.

As his first disciple...Zhu Hao didn't know how to evaluate it.

……

……

Back at his residence, Zhu Hao originally wanted to have a good sleep and recharge his batteries.

But Lu Song came over and talked about the result of communicating with Huguang Dusi.

"... Now that the war is over, what is the practical significance of communication? Lu Dianzhan's immediate focus should be to protect the lady."

Zhu Hao reminded Lu Song.

Don't come to see me every time you have time, protecting Lou Suzhen's safety is more important than anything else.

Lu Songdao: "Leader Yu has sent people to watch, strictly guarding against death, and hired a maid who doesn't know the reason to watch, to prevent her from thinking about it for a while."

This shows that Lu Song still has a brain.

He knew the two biggest problems in protecting Lou Suzhen, one was to prevent Lou Suzhen from running away, and the other was to prevent her from committing suicide. There were not many external interference factors.

After Wang Shouren quelled the Chenhao Rebellion, he implemented a strategy of appeasing the people, and in the official statement, Lou Suzhen had already jumped into the lake and died.

Zhu Hao nodded.

Now Yu San has become the main force under his command, which is what he can believe. When he came here, he felt that everything depended on Lu Song, but it turned out that Lu Song only played the role of a liaison person, against Xing Wangfu and Jin Yiwei's name is a bluff, and Yu San is the one who actually does things.

Zhu Hao felt that it was time to pay Yu Sanjia when he went back.

……

……

The second exam is coming soon.

After Lu Song left, Zhu Hao didn't have time to rest, so he had to prepare the things needed for the second exam, especially the food for the next three days.

Preparations are underway here, Su Xigui came to visit in a hurry, and looked at Zhu Hao with sympathy as soon as they met: "The little master has gone through a lot of hardships, are you okay?"

Zhu Hao asked curiously: "What is tribulation? Dongzhu Su didn't leave?"

Su Xigui originally said that he would leave Wuchang within half a month, but he didn't leave now, and he still has the intention to visit, which means that Su Xigui is not in a hurry.

"Oh, it's said that if you go to the Tribute Academy of the Township Examination, you will lose your skin if you don't die. Zhu Xiaodao has been pampered and pampered in the past few years, and Su is afraid that you won't be able to adapt... Otherwise, I have prepared some dried abalones and dried abalones here. Shen, you take it to eat a few, how about eating it during the exam?"

After Su Xigui finished speaking, he asked someone to present abalone and ginseng wing belly, which are rare treasures among the people.

As soon as Zhu Hao heard it, he knew that this guy had something to ask for.

Zhu Hao said: "I don't want to make up for it. I am afraid that if I eat these things in the tribute courtyard, I will vomit and have diarrhea immediately. I don't even know where the way out of the tribute courtyard is... It is best to eat food that is usually adapted to the stomach during the exam, Su Dong I appreciate the Lord’s kindness, so let’s speak directly.”

"Hey, why don't you say that the young master is discerning? It's like this... His Majesty's birthday is approaching, and the emperor celebrates his birthday... It's the so-called Thousand Autumn Festival. You have to be prepared. In other words, you can take out the glazed beads back then. , there must be a better tribute. Huang Gong will adjust his official position at the end of the year, and at this time... he should express something."

Normally, Huang Zan and Su Xigui didn't care much about what gift the emperor gave on his birthday.

But when it came to the transfer of official positions, Huang Zan knew very well that he could not open a breakthrough from the civil servants, so he could only start from the emperor.

The civil servants didn't recognize me, saying that I started my career by currying favor with the emperor!
If you say I am, that is, what can you do to me?

Zhu Hao said: "I'm still in the Tribute Academy, so I'm going to prepare a gift for the Thousand Autumn Festival for Su Dongzhu..."

Su Xigui sighed: "I also know that this is a bit embarrassing for the young master, but it is definitely not in vain. If you can come up with suitable things, not to mention money, even if it is something more important... such as fame, fortune, power, etc., can be used for nothing. Where my servant and Mr. Huang behind this servant serve, the little boss can just open his mouth."

Su Xigui also knew that Zhu Hao is not short of money now.

It's useless to lure Zhu Hao with money all the time, it's better to have something more practical, maybe Zhu Hao won the exam, will he become an official in the future?Or is there a need for some facade?Where will Zhu Hao go to study in the future, he must have a name, right?Or go to the capital to take the Jinshi examination, do you want to visit the famous Confucianists who were born in the Imperial Academy?

Zhu Hao was full of smiles.

Su Xigui will always take advantage of others. I guess this is just talking nonsense when people talk about others. Knowing that he may soon have a reputation for raising people, he specially came here to fool around before he failed the exam. It probably means, you see If you are so confident that you can pass the exam, I will help you arrange your future reputation outside the examination room, help you publish a book and set up a biography, so that you can have your own reputation in the literary world... just ask if you are popular?
"Let me take a look." Zhu Hao said.

Su Xigui had a look of helplessness on his face: "Young Master, you also know that I'm about to go north soon... There are many things that I'm afraid I won't be able to do in time."

Zhu Hao said: "When I'm ready, how about finding someone to send it to you? By the way, Dongzhu Su, can you help me arrange the recent tour of the South by Your Majesty?"

"Ok?"

Su Xigui was startled, not understanding the trick.

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "That's right. You also know that I come from a theater troupe. I have a lot of good play books here, as well as some story books and story books. Why don't I deal with it for you first?"

"well!"

What Su Xigui said was tantamount to exposing that he had arranged for the emperor's southern tour to have fun.

This was also what Zhu Hao had expected a long time ago.

Before, Zhu Hao wanted to ask Su Xigui about this matter, so he said it by the way when the other party came to him to ask for a congratulatory gift.

Zhu Hao's purpose is naturally to have a channel to get close to the emperor, not to let him go by himself, but to let many things develop according to the historical track. If there is a certain deviation in the historical trend, Zhu Hao will find a way to correct it... No matter what the means are For everything, there must be someone by the emperor's side.

For example, find something delicious and fun to hold the emperor for a few days, let the emperor go to the lake more... engage in some entertainment on the lake...

Since Su Xigui is good at this method, he naturally wants to lead the matter to Su Xigui. Of course, the last step is Zhu Houzhao's falling into the water. Zhu Hao doesn't count on anyone, because the operability is not strong.

Zhu Hao just wants Zhu Houzhao to have a predetermined event happen at a specific time, so that time and space do not change too much, rather than to be the last person to push Zhu Houzhao.

"I didn't bring it with me. How about this? After the exam is over, I will hurry up and write out the play and the storybook, and the person who gives it to you will have it delivered to you, so you can find a troupe to rehearse the play." Zhu Hao said .

Su Xigui sighed: "It would be great if I could directly buy Xiaodangjia's theater troupe."

He actually came up with the idea of ​​his own theater troupe, Zhu Hao shook his head quickly: "If you want to learn opera, you can buy a bigger and better theater troupe and send it to Anlu. I'll help you cultivate it. What do you think?"

"well!"

Su Xigui was very happy to hear that.

Buying Zhu Hao's troupe, although the technology has been formed, is the same as the reason why King Ning wanted to buy Zhu Hao's troupe but would not give it to the emperor. The front acting is also flawed.

You can buy very good opera troupes and actors from Jiangnan, and you can buy those who are beautiful and beautiful. You only need to let Zhu Hao teach him a thing or two, and the skills can be easily solved.

just this...

It would be quite a shame to let a scholar or a future Juren teach opera singers how to sing.

Su Xigui was also ready to give Zhu Haosai more benefits.

This is called enlightenment.
