Chapter 358
"Is this really what Wang Zihou said?" Sheng Hong was amazed, the teacup he was holding was put back on the table, and he sat up from the grand master's chair.

"My son listened to what Zihou said, and there will be no falsehood!" Changbai said with a determined face.

If these words came from Chang Feng's mouth, there would probably be a question mark, but Sheng Hong, an old man, knows Chang Bai's temperament better than anyone else. nonsense people.

"Build a heart for the world! Establish a life for the people! To inherit the sage's knowledge! To bring peace to everything!" Even Sheng Hong couldn't help being shocked physically and mentally when he heard these four sentences, and he felt a deafening feeling.

"Based on these four sentences alone, it can be seen that this son has the ambition to rise above the clouds!" Sheng Hong said with emotion.

Changbai thought for a while and said, "Zihou also discussed with his son what is the way of a sage!"

"Oh?" Sheng Hong raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked curiously, "What other shocking words does Wang Zihou have?"

"Zi Hou said: The way of a sage is nothing more than the use of the common people!"

Immediately Chang Bai told Sheng Hong what Wang Zhong said in detail.

After hearing this, Sheng Hong froze in place and didn't speak for a long time. After a long time, he sighed and looked at Changbai with great emotion: "The prince has a talent that shocks the world. Meiyu! One day, this son will spread his wings like a phoenix, and his name will shake the world."

Changbai also took it seriously and said: "The son is tall only when he is thick, and the son is far behind."

"My son doesn't need to be discouraged. Although Wang Zihou is very talented, my son's talent is not low. In the future, he will study hard and catch up!" Although Sheng Hong said so, he was unwilling to admit that his son was not as good as Wang Zhong. , but in fact, there is already a difference in the heart.

Some people just can't catch up with hard work.

It is the immortals and sages of poetry who have been passed down through the ages from the previous dynasty, and it is Wang Youjun, Yan Qingchen and others who are unforgettable to future generations.

"Follow father's instruction!" Changbai said with a serious expression, neither humble nor overbearing.

Sheng Hong gave another encouragement to his son, whom he had high hopes for, and Chang Bai left and went back to his room to study.

Sheng Hong who was left behind had mixed feelings in his heart.

If Sheng Hong had contacted Wang Zhong many times before, he only knew that Wang Zhong was highly educated, intelligent and alert, and had made great achievements in farming, mulberry and water conservancy. There are not many people with high talents in the world who are like crucian carp crossing the river, but there are only a few people who can go straight to the sky in the end.

However, Wang Zhong is not only talented and learned, but also has a good moral character and temperament.

And Wang Zhong's character is just indispensable in the officialdom.

In addition, Wang Zhongsheng has a good fortune. Although he came from a humble background, he has already had such a rich family wealth, even his own elder brother is full of praise for him, so Sheng Hong can win over Wang Zhong a lot, and even let his eldest son Sheng Changbai , and Wang Zhongduo had contacts.

But it is only limited to wooing, the current Wang Zhong, in the eyes of outsiders, is already a student attached to the Sheng family.

But these words that Chang Bai suddenly brought back today made Sheng Hong have to reconsider the issue of dealing with Wang Zhong.

Don't look at Sheng Hong's slippery sophistication on weekdays, and he never gets ahead of things, but he was able to become a Jinshi in high school in his early twenties, but it is also Sheng Hong's slippery sophistication and his self-sufficient temperament that make him not a big deal in officialdom. Although he has connections in the DPRK and China and knows how to exploit, it is inevitable that he will be released for so many years.

But this does not mean that Sheng Hong has no real talent and learning. With his own ability, he was able to reach the top two in high school when he was in his twenties. In addition, he has worked in the local area for many years. up.

It was precisely because of this that Sheng Hong knew the weight of Wang Zhong's words.

There is already a faint sense of separation from the sect.

What's more, Wang Zhong is only seventeen years old now, if he settles down for a few more years, or even ten or twenty years, he might not be able to be the ancestor of the sect that founded the sect, his name will be passed down through the ages, and be admired by future generations.

Thinking of this, Sheng Hong immediately became excited. As a scholar, what he seeks is nothing less than fame in front of him and behind him.

Although it may not be possible, as long as it is possible...

An idea couldn't help popping up in Sheng Hong's mind: Wang Zhong must be completely tied to the Sheng family's boat.

But how can we completely tie Wang Zhong to his own boat?Accept him as a disciple?But this time the rural examination is over, and next year will be the examination. With Wang Zhong's talent and learning, a rural examination will definitely not have any twists and turns. At this time, I propose to accept Wang Zhong as a disciple. Wang Zhong should not refuse, but outside From the human point of view, if the guarantee is not complete, it means to repay the favor.

And even if Wang Zhong would not refuse, he would inevitably come up with ideas in his heart.

Suddenly, Sheng Hong thought of his eldest daughter in his boudoir, and his eyes lit up.

If you can marry your daughter to Wang Zhong and let Wang Zhong be your son-in-law, wouldn't it be...

As soon as this idea came up, Sheng Hong couldn't help but smile. Marriage is undoubtedly the best way to win over.

But when he thought of Wang Ruofu, the smile on Sheng Hong's face disappeared, and his brows also wrinkled.

In Wei Ruixuan, on the bed in the bedroom, Sheng Hong was smiling, showing the dimples on both sides of his cheeks, and he had already increased his lethality to the highest level.

But just now, Wang Ruofu, who was still low-browed and shy, seemed to have changed after hearing Sheng Hong's words, his fiery temper was ignited again, and the nature of a tigress was awakened again.

Loudly said: "What?"

"You want Hua'er to marry Wang Zhong? Just that poor scholar from some village?"

Wang Ruofu's voice was not only high-pitched, but also very emotional. What he said was shocking, even the woman guarding the gate at Weirui Xuan could hear it.

"No, I don't agree!"

"Listen to me talking to you slowly!" Sheng Hong tried to explain patiently.

"I don't listen. I don't care what your reasons are, but Hua'er is my firstborn daughter, the eldest daughter of the Sheng family. Even if she can't marry those lords' families, she still has to find someone from the same family. Poor scholar with no power and power!"

"I said why don't you go to that Hu Meizi's place today? It turned out to be the idea. Let me tell you, I will never agree. You should give up on it!"

Wang Shi was like a cat whose tail was trampled on, its fur all over its body exploded, and it yelled hysterically at Sheng Hong to show its determination.

"Listen to me first!" Although Sheng Hong was very unhappy because of Wang Ruofu's attitude, for the sake of the overall situation, the long-term plan, and the happiness of his own daughter, he still endured his anger and unhappiness, and patiently talked with Wang Ruofu. Fu explained.

"Hmph!" Wang Ruofu snorted, but after recovering, he knew that he had made a mistake just now. Even if he really disagreed with this marriage, he shouldn't have gotten involved with that bitch Lin.

"This Wang Zihou is not an ordinary person. Although he came from a humble background, he is as talented and knowledgeable as some people who have been educated for many years. However, Wang Zihou is only 17 years old. His son is bound to be in high school, and his ranking is not low, even if he will take the exam next year, he might have a chance."

"Humph!"

Wang Ruofu said disdainfully: "Speaking is better than singing, but after all, it is all false."

"From ancient times to the present, it is not uncommon for people to be highly educated but fail repeatedly!"

Wang Ruofu is not a fool either, her natal family is also a family of officials for many generations. In terms of background, it is much richer than the Sheng family. After all, Wang Ruofu's father, Mrs. Wang, was a grand teacher and enjoyed the name of the Taimiao after his death. minister.

And when it comes to his daughter's lifelong event, Wang Ruofu is not so easy to be fooled by Sheng Hong's few words.

"Then what if Wang Zihou can be a Jinshi in high school?" Sheng Hong asked.

"Then wait until he's in high school!" Wang Ruofu said with a cold face. He was full of joy at first, thinking that Sheng Hong had changed his mind, but he didn't expect to enjoy Sheng Hong's tenderness for a while. My heart is on fire.

"Okay, let's talk about it after he's in high school!" We've been married to Wang Ruofu for many years, and Wang Ruofu's son is straight. The lifeblood of Hualan, especially the eldest daughter Hualan, had suffered a lot with the couple in Lingzhou when they were young. Both husband and wife felt that they owed Hualan, and they have loved them a lot these years.

It was about Hua Lan's lifelong event, it happened once in a lifetime, Sheng Hong also understood Wang Ruofu, and Wang Ruofu didn't understand Wang Zhong, so he couldn't be too cautious, Sheng Hong knew it in his heart, it wasn't just a few words , can convince Wang Ruofu in a moment.

But as long as you start, you can slowly persuade in the future.

Seeing that Wang Ruofu still had a cold face, Sheng Hong hurriedly squeezed out a smile again, grabbed Wang Ruofu's hand, and spoke softly to comfort him.

After all, the husband and wife have been married for many years, and there was a time when the honey was mixed with oil, the relationship was still there, and Sheng Hong was a coaxer, and the coldness on Wang Ruofu's face gradually faded after a few moments.

It has to be said that Sheng Hong is really good at coaxing his wife, and Wang Ruofu is in his thirties, at the age of a wolf and a tiger, and he really needs to be well watered.

In the early morning of the next day, Sheng Hong came out of Wei Rui Xuan refreshed and refreshed. Wang's face was also flushed, and there was a little more smile on his face than before.

Seeing that it was the day when the autumn examination would be released, there were already countless people gathered outside the Gong Yuan.

There are nobles from aristocratic families who are dressed in gorgeous clothes, and there are young servants who are eagerly looking forward to pushing to the front, and there are wealthy foreign businessmen who are dressed in brocade clothes and are waiting to find a son-in-law for their daughter. There are also those young scholars with humble backgrounds in green shirts and square scarves, and there must be even those scholars with silver hair who are already very old.

On the avenues around the Gongyuan, there are many carriages parked, some are gorgeous, some are simple, some are sitting on some big ladies and young girls, and some are standing beside the carriages arm in arm, directing the servants who can read a few words The female envoy went to wait under the list.

All kinds of scenes are so lively.

Naturally, the Sheng family's carriage was also parked on the side of the street, Wang Ruofu led a pair of daughters standing beside the carriage, Chang Bai led a servant, and pulled Wang Zhong, already occupying an excellent position at the bottom of the list.

Wang Lishi held her daughter's hand and stood beside the wupeng green cloth carriage, the handkerchief in her hand was tightly clenched, Emei frowned slightly, and looked nervously at the high wall of Zhang Bang.

It didn't take long to see Wang Zhong and Chang Bai walking back from the crowd side by side, the two of them clasped their hands together as if they were polite, their faces were full of smiles.

Seeing this situation, Wang Li couldn't help raising his brows slightly, and there was a bit of joy in his brows.

I couldn't help guessing in my heart: Could it be that uncle is in high school?
Wang Lishi couldn't wait any longer, she pulled her daughter and rushed to meet her.

"Uncle is in high school?" Wang Li couldn't care less about etiquette, so she opened her mouth and asked impatiently.

Wang Zhong cupped his hands with a smile and said, "Fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life!"

"Hit?" Wang Lishi nervously let go of Wang Qian'er's hand, holding the handkerchief in both hands and holding it in front of her chest, her face full of nervousness.

Changbai next to him smiled and said: "Not only has he won, but he has also won the prize in the Toad Palace. For this reason, we will get rid of Yuan!"

As soon as Changbai finished speaking, Wang Lishi's body softened, his eyes darkened, and he fell down. Fortunately, Wang Chong had quick eyesight and quick hands, and he supported Wang Lishi. Yu Chu's second daughter-in-law carried Mrs. Wang and Li on her back and drove over to her carriage.

Seeing this, Changbai couldn't drag Wang Zhong to say anything, and Wang Shi, Hua Lan and Ru Lan also came to greet him.

"Bai'er, how did you do in the exam?"

Changbai bowed to Wang Ruofu and said respectfully, "I disappointed my mother!"

Wang Ruofu's heart skipped a beat, and he tightly squeezed the veil.

But what Changbai said next made Wang Ruofu lose his mood.

"Haier only got 36 this time, barely in the middle!"

"36? Passed?" Wang Ruofu grabbed Changbai's hand excitedly and asked in disbelief.

"It's a fluke!" Changbai hurriedly explained.

"It's good to pass! It's good to pass!" Wang first breathed a sigh of relief, and then his face was full of smiles: "Now my Bo'er is also a juror!"

The smile is bright, and the corners of the mouth are almost grinning.

"Mother, it's a happy event for Brother Bo'er to be hit. You should send someone to report to your father and family first, so that your father and grandmother will be happy too!" Hua Lan said, pulling Wang Ruofu.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Wang Ruofu nodded again and again: "What Hua'er said is true!" He then pointed to the two servants, telling them to go ahead and report to Sheng Hong and his family respectively.

Wang Ruofu couldn't help but think of Lin Sushuang, who made her teeth itch with hatred. When she thought that his son is not even a scholar now, but her own family has become a juror, a sense of pride spontaneously filled her heart instantly. Between Wang Ruofu's body and mind, Wang Ruofu couldn't wait to go home and tell the good news to that little bitch in Lin Xige, wanting to see her look envious but helpless.

Thinking of this, Wang Ruofu felt very happy.

I wish I could put on my wings and fly back home immediately.

Looking at his own son who was sitting beside him with a poker face, although his face was expressionless, but he was exceptionally upbeat, he felt more and more satisfied.

At the same time, on the carriage of the Wang family, Wang Chongyu's second daughter-in-law Yu Chuer and his wife sat on the shaft of the carriage, and Wang Zhong took his unconscious sister-in-law Wang Lishi and niece Wang Qian'er in the carriage.

Seeing her own mother fainted, the young Wang Qian'er couldn't help being worried, but she didn't dare to disturb her, so she could only watch her third uncle rescue her.

Fortunately, Mrs. Wang and Li were fine, but she was worried for many days before, and now she was overly excited when she learned about Wang Zhongzhong's promotion, and she was so anxious that she suddenly passed out.

Wang Zhong did some simple actions, and he woke up the person.

"Aniang, are you okay!" Seeing Wang Lishi waking up, Wang Qian'er immediately pounced on her and asked in a crying voice.

"Don't worry, my sister-in-law is just in a hurry, she will be fine when she wakes up, just take a rest!" Wang Zhong took out a water bottle and a medicine bottle from the drawer under the seat of the carriage, and poured out a elixir. Pass it to Wang Lishi: "Sister-in-law took this medicine!"

Wang Lishi didn't ask too much, took the pill and threw it into his mouth, then took the kettle and took it with water.

"Uncle, do you really understand Yuan?" Mrs. Wang and Li have been studying with Wang Zhong for the past two years, and they naturally understand some basic knowledge of the imperial examination. They know that Xie Yuan is the No.1 in the provincial examination.

"It is indeed the first name Jie Yuan!" Wang Zhong explained.

Wang Lishi looked at Wang Zhong, his eyes filled with tears in an instant, and the two lines of tears also fell down. Wang Lishi also realized that he had lost his composure, so he quickly raised his hand to cover his face with his sleeve, and wiped away the tears with a handkerchief. No matter how Wang Lishi rubbed it, the tears in his eyes couldn't stop falling.

"Aniang!" Wang Qian'er didn't know why, she thought that Mrs. Wang was sad, and hurriedly grabbed Mrs. Wang's sleeve, shaking and shouting softly, "What's wrong with you!"

Wang Li sobbed and said: "Sister Qian is good, Auntie is fine, Auntie is happy!"

When she said this, both sides of Wang Lishi's mouth turned up, crying and laughing, but Wang Qian'er was confused.

After all, she is still young. To Wang Qianer, crying is crying, laughing is laughing, crying and laughing at the same time, just like the information exceeds the processing scope of the computer, which makes Wang Qianer confused.

Back in Xiaozhu Village, Mrs. Wang and Li had fully recovered, and immediately called the women and children in the village to start busy, and they were going to hold a banquet, make red envelopes, and give out happy money.

The farmer's servants, farms, oil workshops, and icing workshops in the village all have to give reward money.

Seeing Yu Chuer lead a group of farmers to carry out baskets of copper coins, although Wang and Li feel a little distressed, as long as they think of Wang Zhongju, they feel that everything is worth it.

The news that Wang Zhongzhong was promoted and got the title of Xie Yuan, the head of the Huainan East Road Township Examination, spread throughout Baishui Village in just a short moment. Not long after Wang Zhong and Wang Lishi returned home, the old Yutou came to report, saying Several elders in the village asked to see him.

Wang Zhong went to the front hall to receive the reception in person. The three elders congratulated them first, and then they complimented them. They knew that Wang Zhong was the seed of reading, and that Wang Zhong would go to high school sooner or later. They were the hope of Baishui Village and so on.

After exchanging pleasantries, it was confirmed that Wang Zhong would go north to Bianliang, Tokyo, to participate in the next spring examination. The three elders directly patted their chests and promised that Wang Zhong would go north as long as he wanted, and they would help take care of him at home. , will never go wrong.

Wang Zhong was also very polite, he didn't look up at the top just because he won Juren, and said, "Then trouble the three elders and the elders in the village!"

"Should! It should!"
