Chapter 1281 Screening for Name Posts

Everyone went back and discussed the menu for tomorrow's banquet.

Although Xu Taishi and his wife kept a low profile, their status was unusual, so they still alerted the local officials and gentry, and there was almost a long queue of people who came to submit their names.

Although the old housekeeper repeatedly emphasized that the old master and his wife were tired from traveling and would not see guests for the next few days, the people outside the door refused to disperse.

When the old housekeeper returned, the servant behind him had already picked out two baskets of name cards.

Chu Dunru couldn't help but sigh after seeing it, and ordered: "Send it to A Yin, she will lead someone to screen it."

How can the old teacher be able to meet anyone?

In fact, given his status, no one would dare to say anything even if he didn't see anyone, but I guess the old man wouldn't do that.

When the famous post was delivered to Chu Yin's yard, Rong An was shocked, "There aren't that many people who have posted for us, right?"

Chu Yin chuckled, "How can this be the same? The old master has worked diligently for the country throughout his life, upright and knowledgeable, and countless people in the world respect him.

"Although you are an indomitable hero in the eyes of the army and the people, since you are a hero, you are not that easy to get close to. There are many people who think of you in their sleep and dreams, but they don't dare to hope that you can really get close to them. to see you.

"Besides, you are really scary when you show off your dignity."

Rong An touched his nose, "Is there any?"

Chu Yin laughed but did not answer, and ordered people to move the baskets into the house, and bring aster and woody incense for screening, while Zisu recorded on the side.

Rong An asked curiously: "How to screen this? It's easy for officials to say, just classify them according to their grades. What about others?"

"It doesn't have to be based on official position," Chu Yin replied while flipping through the famous post. "For example, Su Cheng's parents were the prefect of Wei. He is actually a disciple of the old master. He only sent the famous post as a greeting. See you. There is no need to see it.

"But for example, Ke Jingshi, the magistrate of Ningcheng County, had a bad fate. He was also an extremely smart person when he was young. However, when he reached the age where he could be dismissed, his relatives died one after another, so he was almost 30 years old when he took the boy examination. .

“Originally, based on his knowledge, if he could successfully take the next exam, the title on the gold list would not be considered particularly senior.

"It's a pity that his first wife passed away just after taking the provincial examination..."

"At that time, he faced a lot of criticism, and it was nothing more than the fact that he punished his relatives and so on.

“After he took care of his wife’s funeral, his family was already impoverished and unable to support him in continuing his scientific examination.

"Logically speaking, if you pass the exam, you can get a salary. Although it won't make you rich, it should be enough to support your family.

"Unexpectedly, he was involved in a local murder case and suffered an unjust injustice for three years.

“My fame and honor were also taken away.

"If Taishi Xu hadn't been ordered to inspect and discover his case, I'm afraid he would have died unjustly.

"After clearing his grievances and restoring his reputation, Master Xu specially gave him some encouragement.

"Ke Jingshi studied hard for another three years and went to Beijing to take the exam. Although he fell ill as soon as he arrived in Beijing, it fortunately did not affect his final exam.

"The ranking? I can't remember clearly. Anyway, I was ranked second.

"It stands to reason that it's time to feel proud, right? It happened that there were many officials to be elected in the Ministry of Civil Affairs that year, so he served as a candidate in Beijing for three years.

"When I was assigned to be the county magistrate in Ningcheng, I was already over fifty..."
