Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 950 Success
No matter what Cao Yong thinks, it is a foregone conclusion that Hang Seng will accompany Hongli to read.

Brother Sixteen patted his chest and assured Cao Yong that he would never let Hang Seng suffer in the palace, and told Cao Yong to rest assured.

Now in Rehe, the so-called emperors and grandsons are studying with the emperor's grandsons. They are just a few entourages of the princes and the emperor's grandsons studying with the Hanlin scholars, or learning riding and archery with other people.Hongli is a good-natured person, not an unreasonable person, besides, there are Fu Peng and Brother 21. These two have connections with the Cao family, and they will be polite to Hang Seng.

When you return to Beijing, you don't have to worry.Hongpu of the sixteenth elder brother's family is in the upper study, so they can take care of each other.

Cao Yong knew that Brother Sixteen was right, so he felt at ease.According to his original intention, he would rather let Tianyou study with him than Hang Seng.

The status of Tianyou's eldest son and grandson made him socialize with his father and grandfather since he was a child, and his mind is more mature than children of the same age.Even if he is a companion in the palace, with his temperament, he will be more comfortable and calm in dealing with people than Hang Seng; Hang Seng is a little more simple and less tactful.

Things have come to this, what Cao Yong can do is to spend more time with Hang Seng every night.Between father and son, talk about what happened in a day.

Cao Yong no longer regards Hang Seng as a child, but encourages and supports him like an adult.

Hang Seng is very happy about the change in his father's attitude.

He is ten years old this year, and it was when he grew from a child to a teenager that he gradually had his own understanding of the world.The most respected father in his heart, listening to him like this and agreeing with what he said, he was a little secretly happy.

Originally somewhat dull temperament, unknowingly added a little liveliness.Seeing that his father was willing to listen, he wished to tell Cao Yong everything that happened in one day.

After listening to Cao Yong for half a month, he saw that Hang Seng didn't show any grievance and indignation. It seemed that he could get along well with others.

However, as Hang Seng grows older and the political situation changes this year and next year, Hang Seng still needs to face a lot.

On this day, Cao Yong said to Hang Seng after finishing the father-son gossip: "Before my father came to Beijing in the early years, when your great-grandmother died of illness, your grandfather sent me to the monastery and asked me to read a lot of books for my father." , Do you want to know what kind of books they are?"

Father and son get together every day, but the conversation is mainly about Hang Seng. This is the first time Cao Yong mentioned his youth to Hang Seng.

After hearing this, Hang Seng's eyes lit up, he nodded quickly and said, "I want to know, I want to know."

Cao Yong let out a long breath, pushed a stack of books in front of Hang Seng, and said: "That's it, I read these books for my father for several years. You are also grown up, you should read these books."

Hang Seng obediently agreed, not feeling that reading these books would be hard work, and he usually dislikes reading the most.These were the books his father had read, and his admiration for his father made this little boy feel sweet. He wished he could finish reading these books right away, so that he could get in touch with his father's world.

Needless to say, these books are the "Biography of Famous Officials" and "Biography of Ning Chen" that Cao Yong had read when he was in Qingliang Temple.He was brought to the capital by Cao Yong in his early years, and after Hang Seng was selected as a companion, he made a special trip back to Beijing to fetch it.

When he decided to ask someone to take the book, he finally understood his father's feelings back then.

I want my children to have wise minds and face the world bravely, but I am also afraid that the world will hurt my children.

After the father and son finished their dinner, Cao Yong dealt with sundries in the study, and Hang Seng went back to study in the West Courtyard where he lived.

After turning a few pages, the room became dark.

Hang Seng was reading the chapter "Qin Zhao Gao" in "The Biography of the Courtier", and he was terrified.As an eunuch, a person of low status, just because the emperor was close to him, he falsely preached the holy order, killed the righteous prince Fusu of the Great Qin Empire, then tore apart the prime minister who had different political views, and finally killed Qin II after the Han Gaozu uprising Emperor Hu Hai.

There are such unfaithful, unrighteous and insane people in the world.

After seeing it, Hang Seng frowned. For some reason, Wei Zhuwei, the emperor's close attendant, appeared in his mind.

During the half a month of studying with him in the palace, Hang Seng met this chief executive several times.Although Wei Zhu didn't do any "fake the tiger's prestige", Hang Seng also knew that even if he was honored as the prince and grandson, Brother Sixteen and Hongli would not dare to neglect the chief executive.

This Zhao Gao has the same identity as Director Wei.

Just as Hang Seng was thinking, Xiaoxie came over with a candlestick.

On the silver candlestick more than one foot high, there are many candles that are as thick as a child's arm.

The candles were all lit, instantly illuminating the small study room of Hang Seng like daylight.

Hang Seng felt that something was wrong, so he took a second look, and found that six candles were lit.

He couldn't help frowning, and said, "Sister, how do you light these candles?"

Although the Cao Mansion is a wealthy family, in terms of daily life, Cao Yong and Chu Yu have never spoiled Tianyou and Hang Seng.Oil lamps are often used at night, and candles are occasionally lit, at most double wax. They are not allowed to read at night, for fear that reading at night will hurt their eyes.

"It was the master who sent someone to give instructions, saying that if the second master reads, he should light six candles, and be careful not to hurt his eyes." Xiaoxie replied.

Hearing that it was his father's order, Hang Seng couldn't say anything, he just stared at the circle of candles in a daze.

At this time, Xiaoxie asked someone to carry in a diorama that was half the size of his body.After placing it on the candlestick, the room became brighter again.

Hang Seng looked curiously, and Xiaoxie was also amazed by the effect when he saw this, and said: "Master knows a lot, Master specially sent someone to bring this mirror here, just to show the second master."

Although he left home and was far away from his mother and brothers and sisters, Hang Seng was full of joy to receive such love from his father.

He endured the shock of Zhao Gao's retrograde and doubts about whether Wei Zhu was a courtier, and decided to concentrate on studying the books his father gave him.

Xiaoxie was beside him, seeing him holding the book with smiles on his face and eyes, his mood improved accordingly.

It seems that it is not a bad thing for the second master to be selected as a companion.Earlier, she was worried that her master was not doing well in his studies and would be humiliated and made things difficult in the palace, but now it seems that the master is more worried than her little maid.

With the master's arrangement, the second master should be considerate...

*
Compared with Hengsheng in Rehe, Tianyou, Zuocheng, and Zuozhu in Beijing are not idle. They have passed the prefectural examination and are now "children".Zuo Zhu and Zai Cheng have achieved their original goals and are already eligible to study in Shuntian Prefecture Government School.

On God Bless's side, he wanted to pass the "College Examination" in one go this year.

Only those who have passed the college examinations can truly achieve fame, that is, "scholars".This courtyard has two exams every three years, avoiding the year of the general exam, and there are two years this year and next.

In fact, even if this year is not enough, there will be next year.But Fan Fuzi and Qian Chenqun both agree that their brothers will end this year.

Next year is the year of the provincial examination, and the number of people taking the college examination will be more than this year.This is the experience of the two Hanlins, and God You will keep it in mind.

When Tianyou was so ruthless, brothers Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng couldn't sit still.In addition, the father-in-law's family who lived in Zuo sent people to Beijing, and someone made a special trip to Cao's mansion to pay his respects, and also visited the two brothers.Ma Jun was also quite conscious of his father-in-law, and wrote a letter to his son-in-law, mostly asking him about his studies.

Zuo Zhu couldn't sit still. As he got older, he naturally knew that there was no reason to live in his adoptive father's house for a lifetime.He and his younger brother will always have their own family, and when the time comes, his eldest brother will take on the responsibility of supporting his mother and teaching his younger brother, as well as himself... his future wife and children...

Although the adoptive father never demanded anything from their brothers, even Tianyou and Hang Seng knew that they could be promoted through the imperial examination and not rely on the family's favor. How could the two brothers have the cheek to count on the adoptive father to arrange a bright future for them.

He and Zuo Cheng are twins with the same mind.Zuo Cheng became a little more serious when he became ruthless.

What Zuo Cheng thought was that his elder brother cared so much about fame, so he didn't want to be idle.If you work hard by yourself, even if your brother fails the ranking, you will still be working hard.He wanted his brother to be happier, and he wanted his mother to be happier too.

Although they have different minds, God bless the three of them are all reading with all their energy.

Tianyou went to Qi Xue in the daytime, although the teachers in Qi Xue were all Jinshi backgrounds, how could they compare with Fan Hanlin whom Cao Yong specially invited?

So, every day after returning home, Tianyou went to Fan Hanlin's yard to ask about homework.

After such a surprise attack, the homework of these three little guys can't be said to have improved by leaps and bounds, but it has also made considerable progress.

According to Master Fan's original intention, he disapproved of the disciples of the Cao family leaving this year.I always feel that they are young, short-sighted, and their articles are jerky.If he worked hard for three years before leaving, Tianyou might be able to win the "leader" (Court Examination No. 1).

But God bless their eagerness, the Patriarch of the Cao family nodded in agreement, Mr. Fan couldn't say anything.

Unexpectedly, apart from Hang Seng who was poor in his homework, Tianyou, Zuo Zhu, and Zuo Cheng successfully passed the county and government examinations.

As a result, Master Fan became a little excited.

After several months in Cao's residence, he already knew the situation of the former teachers of Cao's family. Let's not talk about Zheng Xie, who is not well-known, but Qian Chenqun, the teacher of several disciples, is a great talent well-known in the south of the Yangtze River.

Now, his disciples are about to take the academy examination, Master Fan has to pass on his experience carefully.These three little boys are only 11 years old, and there are countless years to come.

If the three disciples can pass the courtyard test smoothly, Master Fan will definitely be proud.In that way, he also felt that he had lived up to the kindness of the Cao family.

After the exam in June Mansion, Tianyou only felt that he was going to die of exhaustion.

He hasn't read for three days, even in class, he can still sleep with his eyes closed, which shows how exhausted he is.

He thought of his younger brother who had been handpicked as a companion, and he was obsessed with this year's college exam.If his homework is super good and he passes the college exam, then maybe the person on the dragon chair will also ask him to accompany him.

Tianyou was really worried about leaving his younger brother alone, so three days later, he started to study hard again.

Seeing her son forgetting to sleep and eat, and his little face getting thinner, Chu Yu felt very distressed.She was already out of confinement, and she didn't care about the two young ones, so she made people cook a lot of medicinal food to recuperate her son's body...

In Qi Xue, some people began to curry favor with Cheng Hai.Quite a few people came forward to flatter them, saying that the Cao family was good at what they said, God bless how good their homework was, and so on.

Tianyou listened and just smiled lightly...
