The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

"... How many articles did you say you wrote?" Prince Jiang Huaiqian shook his hand holding the teacup, and the crisp sound made when the tea lid fell back was very similar to the surprise that arose in his heart.

"Returning to Your Highness, Sheng Xiu wrote three articles."

"..." Jiang Huaiqian was speechless for a moment.

He scratched his brow unconsciously, opened and closed his mouth for a while, but still didn't say a word.

But although he had nothing to say, there was a lot of slander in his heart.

He thought to himself that if this cousin handed over one by one, he could return one by one.

But he handed in the three papers together... plus the previous three papers, there are six papers in total. If he finds a reason to call back, it will inevitably be a little inappropriate.

Tsk tsk, I don't know who came up with the idea, but it made it difficult for him to move.

He made this arrangement before, but he just wanted to deduct his cousin's vacation in a legitimate way.

Who made his cousin so lazy? !
There are only unexpected reasons for asking for leave, and there are no excuses for asking for leave that his cousin can't find!

My cousin asks for a vacation from time to time to be happy, which makes him jealous!
Why? !Shouldn't the courtiers share the worries of the emperor?

The life on duty is more leisurely than after getting old, isn't it true? !
Jiang Huaiqian, who became more and more straightforward, faced his own heart: he didn't want to give his cousin a long vacation like this!

Whether the vacation is long or not is not a problem. After all, the position of the cousin is no different from tailor-made. Whether the cousin is on vacation or not working has no effect on the court.

He just didn't want his cousin to win the holiday so easily!
This made him feel like shooting himself in the foot, losing his wife and losing his army.

"Sheng Xiu writes so quickly, so...how is the quality of the script?"

Jiang Huaiqian felt that he could still struggle.

"The chief officer of Sheng Xiuzhuan asked the slave to hand over the playbook, and what you say is up to you."

"..." Jiang Huaiqian understood, he couldn't fault it!

That's right, the previous three scripts were very good, but he was just trying to find faults.

He took over the playbooks and skimmed through them. He felt that these three playbooks were more advanced, so he couldn't help but read them again carefully.

The first script easily aroused his dissatisfaction, and these resentments were released after the protagonist's wit resolved the problem.It's just that after he laughed, he couldn't help thinking about the foreshadowing laid in the beginning of the script, and unconsciously he worried with the plot and the protagonist.Until the big reversal of the plot later, he felt great surprise and satisfaction.

The style of the second playbook is different, the whole story is full of humor and joy, the witty sentences, and the uplifting emotions that make the corners of his mouth arouse and he never put it down. He just feels comfortable after reading it. .

The third playbook has the meaning of suppressing first and then exalting.

He felt aggrieved at the beginning of the chapter, so angry that he almost felt rebellious, so that when he saw the protagonist dreaming of a tragic end, he let out his anger!Want to praise that nephew for doing a good job!
It was only after the protagonist and his wife came to their senses that they left the village and entered the city, which calmed him down a bit.

After that, although the protagonists still had difficulties, many adventures made their lives more and more agreeable.It seems that he is the only reader who is still thinking about those villains, wishing to see the regrets of those villains.

Jiang Huaiqian felt that if he wanted to say which of the three scripts he liked the most, it must be the script that made him emotional, especially the last ending of this script greatly satisfied his desire for face-slapping.

An hour later, Jiang Huaiqian, who was satisfied with watching the play, was stunned.

This, this, this... How can he embarrass his cousin!

Such a good-looking book made my cousin's chief officer feel embarrassed. If he withholds it again, wouldn't it appear that he is not generous?

More importantly, if this book is withheld, how can he ask people to arrange a rehearsal for the troupe?
"It's okay, such a good book has been passed. Doesn't it mean that the previous three books were returned for a reason, not because of him!" Jiang Huaiqian thought about it, nodded, and thought about the vacation again, " A two-month vacation sounds like a lot, but what if it is divided into batches? Isn’t it too much to divide him up a dozen times?”

……

In the evening, Sheng Xiangxun proudly whispered to Zheng Shi: "Is your husband smart or not? Humph! Do you think you can hide it from me by using his mouth? What a joke!
That one is narrow-minded!That's it for children!The mind is not as big as the nose of a needle!

I didn't offend him, and His Majesty gave me permission to take the vacation, but it made him jealous, looking for a reason to deduct my vacation, is it too much?

This means that I am grown up. If I was a child, I would have to cry to my aunt!Let's see if he suffers! "

Zheng Shi: "..."

Come on, it's not too big to be able to say this!

"My husband is indeed wise."

Although he complained in his heart, Mrs. Zheng still wanted to support her.

The third master Sheng, who was praised, showed the same complacency on his face as his little daughter: "Think of me as a fool! Use drama to educate the world? Don't be kidding! Sir, village head, parents and officials can't teach well, and you still want to rely on A few plays will make people regret and cooperate? It’s a dream! If this is the case, why there is a law office?...Of course, there may be capable people who have such abilities, but I can’t do it.”

"Isn't that the reason?" In the tent, Mrs. Zheng leaned on the pillow and nodded, "I can't teach the sages who have read a hundred or so times. Is it possible to expect to be educated by the operas and scripts that I have read once?"

"That's right!" Seeing Zheng's sincere recognition of himself, Sheng Xiangxun patted his thigh happily, "At that time, I thought, why don't you want the vacation that was given to you for nothing? He is a dignified prince, he can't embarrass us again and again, right? Humph! If you embarrass me twice or three times, can you embarrass me five times or six times? Take your time! As long as you don’t give up, you can always get the vacation!”

Mrs. Zheng looked at him curiously: "So this time the three playbooks are sent together, just to make things difficult for that one?"

"..." Sheng Xiangxun blinked, pondered for a moment, and felt that he probably didn't think so at the time, and shook his head sincerely, "It's not a coincidence, our sister Yuan thought of these few books, which greatly increased my inspiration.

To be honest, the play she was talking about didn't seem very outstanding at first, but the few shining points in it were really novel.

It is also because of the surge in inspiration that I have written three notebooks in just two days!But at that time, I had a great time writing, but after finishing writing, I only felt tired and weak.

Because of laziness, I handed them in separately, so I just handed them all in, and let him see for himself!Seeing that he saw such an interesting script, he was so embarrassed to call me back! "

Zheng said to herself, I'm afraid it was a coincidence, the attractiveness of the three good playbooks is not light, and that's why the master quickly let him go.

"But it's a pity. It would be great if we could take the two-month vacation together? I don't know how comfortable it is!" Sheng Xiangxun shook his head, and couldn't help but muttered that a certain master was too stingy.

He spoke happily, but Mrs. Zheng couldn't agree with her, and she was afraid that he would be too embarrassing, so she talked about her little daughter: "What do you think of her little head? When you say something, you will come up with three in a row! "

"Smart and eager to learn! I see that she likes to read county annals and anecdotes recently. I think it's the inspiration from reading books before...how can I say that a scholar can know the world's affairs without leaving the house!" Sheng Xiangxun waved nonchalantly Waving his hands, he felt that his daughter was fine.
