Datang: Begin with Li Shimin as a father

Chapter 55

Others don't know who the county magistrate of Jingyang is!
Kong Yingda is too clear.

The current magistrate of Jingyang County is a student of Kong Yingda.

He just passed the assessment by the Ministry of Officials and went to take up his post.

Before taking office, the student also specially invited Kong Yingda to a banquet to thank him for his nurturing grace over the years.

Moreover, his name is not Li Fu!

Something is going on here!
And there are still big things.

Kong Yingda is also a person with a quick mind. It is very intriguing to recommend this person by King Hejian!

Now, another, nonexistent Jingyang county magistrate Li Fu came out.

And it can still be registered on the household registration.

This is something that can only be done by a person with good hands and eyes.

Kong Yingda calmed down, then looked down.

The eldest son, Li Gen, is eleven years old.

"Little friend is only eleven years old, so it's really troublesome to take the imperial examination."

"Master, students can add two years."

Li Gen has already thought of this step.

It is not a very troublesome thing to change the age on the household registration.

Kong Yingda neither objected nor nodded in agreement.

Instead, he smiled and looked at Li Gen.

"Little friend, when the Shangshu Provincial Examination starts, you can come to the old man to get your student status."

"At that time, Xiaoyou has already passed the examination of the Imperial College, and will participate in the imperial examination as a student."

Li Gen was overjoyed when he heard the words.

In this way, Li Gen does not have to take the unified examination of Jingzhao Fu Yin.

Jumped directly to Shang Shusheng.

"Little friend, don't do too badly in the exam, or our Guozijian will not be honored."

"Master, please rest assured that the students will do their best and will never confuse the master and the Imperial College!"

Li Gen looked confident, and Kong Yingda nodded appreciatively.

"The younger generation is awesome, the younger generation is scary, I don't know which subject my little friend wants to take?"

"Master, the student wants to take the Xiucai subject!"

puff!
Kong Yingda just sprayed out the sip of tea that he brought to his mouth.

He stared at Li Gen in surprise.

"Do you know how difficult it is to take the Xiucai department? I didn't even apply for the Xiucai department back then."

"You child, you are really a newborn calf not afraid of tigers!"

"If you insist on applying for the scholar department, I won't dare to handle this student status for you."

"Xiu Cai Division, once the exam gets a bad grade, the old man will be held accountable."

Hearing this, Li Gen bowed his head and pondered.

What Kong Yingda said was the truth.

The current scholar subject is the most difficult subject.

Because once a scholar is admitted, he will be given official status directly.

Therefore, accountability is also the most powerful.

Bad reviewers, as long as the person who recommends, and the place they belong to, someone must be held accountable.

Kong Yingda prevented Li Gen from being admitted to the scholar department, but it was actually for his own good.

After thinking this through, Li Gen scratched his head in embarrassment, and said.

"Master, since that's the case, the students should pass the entrance examination!"

"A child can be taught, a child can be taught!"

When Kong Yingda heard Li Gen's decision, he took a sip of tea happily and said.

"Little friend, it's getting late, let's have a light meal with the old man!"

When Kong Yingda finished speaking, Li Gen opened the food box with a smile.

call!
Kong Yingda couldn't help sniffling hard.

Meat, vegetables, and even wine.

Li Gen didn't expect there to be a jug of wine inside.

I can't help but praise Zhao Si's ability to handle affairs in my heart!
"Master, this is a kindness from the students. All the food and drinks come from Forgan Restaurant."

When Kong Yingda heard this, she was taken aback for a moment, then raised her head and burst out laughing.

Li Fu, Li Gen!
Falcon's Restaurant.

In an instant, Kong Yingda understood many things.

According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, businessmen are not allowed to become officials, let alone take the imperial examination.

That's why the young man in front of him said that all the food and wine came from Fugen Restaurant.

What a smart young man!

"Little friend, these dishes are the ones that have been rumored in the past two days. They are so delicious that people can swallow their tongues, and they come from the Forgen restaurant?"

"Ok!"

Li Gen nodded with a smile, took the food and wine out of the food box, and carefully placed them on the table.

In the food box, Zhao Si actually prepared two pairs of chopsticks.

This made Li Gen more and more satisfied.

Li Gen held the wine jug and filled the two wine glasses.

"Master, the students offer you a toast."

When Li Gen's words fell to the ground, he raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

"Good drink!"

The old man Kong Yingda chatted about being a teenager, and drank it all in one gulp!

"Good wine, good wine!"

After drinking a glass of fine wine, Kong Yingda felt warm all over.

"Master, try this stir-fried mung bean sprouts and stewed soybean sprouts."

"it is good!"

Kong Yingda picked up the bamboo chopsticks, pointed at a piece of fat meat and started to strike.

"Fragrant, really fragrant!"

Kong Yingda closed her eyes comfortably, enjoying the mouth full of oil.

"No wonder there are rumors in the market that the dishes of Fugen Restaurant are so fragrant that people can swallow their tongues. After tasting it today, I feel that the rumors are true!"

Kong Yingda sighed sincerely.

"Master, try this stir-fried mung bean sprouts again!"

Li Gen is really speechless for people in this era who like to eat fat meat.

The more noble a person is, the more he has a soft spot for fat meat!

"Little friend, talking about these mung bean sprouts, the whole city of Chang'an was going crazy at first. Unfortunately, the price is too expensive. If you hang a handful of money, the old man can only sigh!"

"The price of ten copper coins in the past few days has finally become kind. Many merchants also have mung bean sprouts on the market, but the bean sprouts that are the first to sell bean sprouts in Dongxi Market are not only bright in color and good in appearance, but also better than others. It's too long."

"In the past few days, the Imperial College has also purchased some bean sprouts. What the students eat is a joy!"

After Kong Yingda finished speaking, she picked up a chopstick of mung bean sprouts.

"Hey, this..."

As soon as the stir-fried mung bean sprouts entered the mouth, Kong Yingda's expression became exciting again!
"Wonderful, really wonderful!"

"It turns out that the dishes still have this way of eating, this taste, this texture, my friend, this old man is really a feast for the mouth today!"

"Master, eat as much as you like, and the students will bring it to you in the future."

After hearing Li Gen's words, Kong Yingda's eyes lit up.

"really?"

"Master, you don't know what to say if you don't believe what you say!"

"Student, how can you lie in front of the master!"

"Good, good, good!"

Kong Yingda couldn't hide the joy in his heart, and even sighed three good words.

A pot of wine, a pot of tea, and two dishes.

Apart from drinking two glasses of wine, Li Gen was covered by Kong Yingda.

"Master, it's all because the students are not good, and the preparations are a bit hasty."

Li Gen looked at the empty plate, scratched his head and said.

"Little friend, you don't need to blame yourself, it's an old man who is gluttonous."

"I didn't expect the dishes of Fugen Restaurant to be so delicious. I have reached the age of knowing my destiny, and I am also gluttonous."

The two were relatively speaking, and Kong Yingda also asked Li Gen about his studies during the period.

Seeing Li Gen answering fluently, I liked it more and more.

"Master, it's getting late, the student will leave first, the master's kindness to the student today, the student will definitely repay it in the future!"

Li Gen stood up, bowed respectfully and bid farewell.

"Wait a minute!"
