Chapter 115 Unfair Exam Questions

Chapter 115: Unfair Exam Questions

Ministry of Rites, noon!

It’s another bright and sunny day!

Lying on the rocking chair made by the craftsman according to his own instructions, Hu Weiyong lazily basked in the sun.

On the small table next to it, a small, simple and even slightly bronze incense burner was emitting wisps of green smoke from several delicate holes.

In the teapot on the side, a pool of green tea was steaming faintly.

Smelling the subtle fragrance, feeling the warmth of the sun shining down on my body, and sipping a sip of tea, this day is simply wonderful.

The incense burner was given by a certain head of the Ministry of Etiquette.

Hu Weiyong, who didn't usually accept gifts, fell in love with this thing, so he found a suitable return gift and accepted it with a smile.

The sandalwood burning in the incense burner is even more extraordinary.

That's what Hu Weiyong has recently learned to do.

That's right!

He made it himself!

Incense Tao is not something that only monks and Taoists do. It is an elegant way of playing that has been around since ancient times.

It can even be said that ordinary families with insufficient financial resources and background cannot afford this thing.

Because the materials used in the incense are often compared with precious treasures.

But it turns out that these things were put together for burning.

How can such "elegant" gameplay be affordable for ordinary people?

Not only could Hu Weiyong afford it, but the key was that he still had the leisure to do so.

After all, in Hu Weiyong's view, lying down is all about lying down, but you still have to live a happy life.

Although he doesn't like the toilet water that foreigners put on his body, he is really interested in things like incense and sachets.

Especially incense!

After all, no matter how old a man is, he can't refuse a game of mud.

Hey!

Now he is just getting started with the way of incense.

But the advantage was that he was wild and went directly to the master craftsman in charge of this matter in the palace to get some suitable prescriptions.

There are some that can help you focus, calm your mind, help you sleep, and even help you have fun!

Yes, there are also people who add to the fun.

God knows how excited Hu Weiyong was when he just got the prescription to cheer him up.

Especially when he actually made the recipe for the first time and tried it and found that it really had the effect, it was crazy.

He really wanted to take that stuff and light a big bundle and smoke it in his room at night.

Fortunately, as he gained more knowledge, he became calmer.

No, right now, in the incense burner beside him is a plate of Ningshen Fang incense that he rubs with his hands.

The fragrance is very light, but the smell is intoxicating.

The best thing is that the longer you smell it, the more transparent your mind will become.

This feeling is simply too amazing.

The tea on the side was something that Hu Weiyong spent a lot of time searching for.

Today's Ming Dynasty still has some shortcomings in understanding of tea.

But others don't know, he doesn't know where to get good tea.

For certain good teas that are only popular and valued locally, he received a lot of them after just a few letters.

The other party also promised to send Hu Xiang a copy every year in the future.

The other party only hopes that if he comes to Yingtian Mansion to report his work in the future, he can come to Hu Mansion to pay homage to his mentor.

For such a good student who is obedient, sensible and knows how to behave, Hu Weiyong naturally nodded in agreement.

Anyway, he had chosen the people he wrote the letters to, and they were all people who were honest and not noisy.

It is estimated that he will never be able to pass the fourth grade official in this life.

But having a low official position does not mean that a person is useless.

This kind of person is safe.

Wouldn't it be nice to make some friends and drink some tea?

After drinking, drying, and smoking, I accidentally discovered that it was time to go to the Yamen.

I didn’t say anything, go home.   Only idiots work overtime.

Naturally, this time I go back to Hu Mansion!

Rushi has to take a break recently.

Rushi's high-level outburst some time ago made Hu Weiyong so happy that he couldn't miss Shu, but it really exhausted Rushi.

Na Nizi doesn't have a system around her.

Being able to fight Hu Weiyong to this extent with his mortal body is enough to be proud of.

Therefore, Hu Weiyong simply excused himself to study behind closed doors and could not indulge in beauty every day, and said goodbye to Rushi.

The result was that Ru Shi was extremely moved.

After all, the little girl really believed that he was an old student and pointed to his high school.

However, there is no need to become a monk when returning to Hu Mansion.

You know, not to mention the concubines who had been kept in the palace before, Nana and others who were rewarded by Zhu Yuanzhang in the palace were enough to comfort Mr. Hu.

This long night will not be boring if you have a beautiful woman by your side.

But after experiencing the variety of things in Rushi, and going back to the Hu Mansion to go through such a toss, Mr. Hu felt more or less that he was not motivated enough.

It's not that the beauty in the house doesn't care.

Just kidding, these people have been bound to Hu Weiyong for their entire lives, how could they not be careful.

The key is that these people are not as free-spirited and promiscuous as Ru Shi.

Rushi is a fierce person who can put everything he thinks into practice.

As for these people in the house, some tricks are okay, but others are not and cannot be let go.

Tsk tsk, Hu Weiyong originally wanted to play on the swing in his own house.

He even thought about having a double swing.

It's a pity that no one cooperates.

The next day, the same incense burner, teapot, and the same wandering around basking in the sun.

Unfortunately, a group of uninvited guests came.

An official from the Department of Ceremonies probably felt that Mr. Hu was too relaxed, so he hurriedly sent over the test questions for the college examination.

It has to be said that this group of people are also good at figuring out what is best for them. Hu Weiyong spoke quickly before he opened his mouth.

"Master Hu, please ask another question here!"

"If you don't ask the question, wouldn't it seem incomplete?"

"We can't let all the students think it's easier as they get to the back!"

Hu Weiyong nodded, that was really the case.

However, Hu Weiyong also had his own considerations at this time.

As the saying goes, one can be one, two can't be three, and the previous two test questions were more or less strange.

But now that it's time for a scholar to take the imperial examination, where he is finally successful, it's not good to mess around any more.

This time, let’s take a serious question about the meaning of the scriptures.

After thinking about it over and over again, Hu Weiyong didn't waste any time and immediately started writing in the blank space with a splash of ink.

When he threw the pen aside, a group of officials immediately joined him.

After all, they had expected in advance that Hu Weiyong would pose the question on his own.

But they are actually quite curious about what questions will be asked and what tricks will be played.

After all, many of them had passed the imperial examination and were now working in the Ministry of Rites. How could they not pay attention to this?

Just by looking at it, everyone was dumbfounded.

The test questions this time are not so strange!

But...why does it look a little inappropriate?
