The daily life of the prime minister of the Qing Dynasty, thick black

Chapter 188
"Master Li, Master Li?"

"What's wrong with you?"

"Boss Li, what's wrong with this answer sheet?"

You know, all the answer sheets of the Bingxu Branch have been published. Li Guangdi doesn't care about this. The ministers above all say that there is no problem. Why is Li Guangdi now...

Li Guangdi slapped the table and said flatly, "Isn't this just nonsense!"

"This……"

Everyone arranged the books according to the answer sheets copied from the Shuntian Gongyuan, but they haven't read them much. They are printed every year, and they are not scholars. How do they know what's wrong?
But Li Guangdi is a bachelor, he's talking nonsense here, could it be that something really went wrong?
Everyone watched hesitantly.

On Li Guangdi's side, he was very angry, it was all nonsense!Nonsense!

I thought that Zhang Tingyu had a steelyard in his heart and knew what to do and what not to do. How could the answer sheet be compiled like this now?
Regardless of whether it is the provincial examination or the general examination, the answer sheets must be published. Generally speaking, the rankings of the provincial examination and the general examination are followed. The answer sheets of Jieyuan or Huiyuan are placed first, that is to say, the answer sheets printed after the current examination. , the one at the front should be Shi Yunjin, but just as Li Guangdi scanned it, he saw a name he didn't know at all!
The first name in the answer sheet is Dai Mingshi, Tongcheng, Anhui? !
How is this messed up?
Where did Shi Yunjin's answer sheet go?

What happened to Dai Mingshi?It's also the same hometown as Zhang Tingyu!
It's just nonsense...

Li Guangdi was going to look for Zhang Tingyu with the book in hand, but then he remembered that Zhang Tingyu was not in the South Study Room at all. Today, people invited the examiners to a banquet. How could Zhang Tingyu have time to go to the palace?
For a moment, Li Guangdi was in trouble, and only asked: "Have you put down all the answer sheets for this subject?"

"Let's go back to Mr. Li."

As soon as the people below came back, Li Guangdi's eyes darkened and he almost fainted.

Not to mention that Li Guangdi is too old and not able to bear it, even the young Jinshi scholars can only be shocked at this time!
Good guy, who is this person who weighs on Yuan Shi Yunjin's answer sheet in this science meeting? !

After the rankings were released, someone's answer sheet was placed in front of Huiyuan?
What a joke!

They only turned to the first page and didn't see Shi Yunjin. Everyone was taken aback for a moment, and then saw a strange "Dai Mingshi". Isn't this the crazy man who ran out to drink flowers and wine in the middle of the exam? ?

How dare such a person rank in front of Huiyuan? !
Ordinary scholars are all angry, Fan Xiu's luck cannot be envied, Shi Yunjin and others' talents cannot be envied, but what is this Dai Mingshi?

Seeing the answer sheet, Shi Yunjin thought that this time he should show off by himself, but when he opened the answer sheet with a smile all over his face, all the smiles froze.

The first one in the answer sheet was not him.

In the general examination of Bingxu Branch, it's just that he is not the most famous. Originally, Shi Yunjin felt that he was not as good as Zhang Tingyu. As for Fan Xiu, it would be better to say that he was unlucky than lucky.

What is Dai Mingshi?
With such a person's academic attitude, dare to put it on his own head?

The answer sheet was transcribed by the Gongyuan according to the examiner's intention, so it must be Zhang Tingyu's intention!
In other words, Zhang Tingyu felt that Dai Mingshi should be No.1, not Shi Yunjin!

How many moths does Zhang Tingyu have to make before he is reconciled?
Does everyone have to be worried to show his ability and ability? !

But after all, Zhang Tingyu is powerful, and everyone didn't dare to say anything, so they just patiently read Dai Mingshi's answer sheet.

A look, you can see the clues.

Originally, Zhang Tingyu wanted to put this answer sheet as the first name after the first round of grading. Even the rest of the examiners didn't have any opinions. Everyone thought this answer sheet was very good.

However, this person did not appear in the answer sheets of the second and third exams.

After checking later, I found out that this Dai Mingshi only participated in the first exam, and never participated in the second and third exams. The examiners could only regret it.

After Zhang Tingyu found out, he was so angry that he almost threw away his pen.

This Dai Mingshi is a talented person, so it is a last resort to make him lose his name.

Peng Huiqi and the others didn't mean to praise Dai Mingshi, anyway, the rules of the test are laid out here, there is no result in the back, and no matter how good the answer sheet is, you can't get on the apricot list.

So Dai Mingshi must not be able to go up, but Zhang Tingyu is not reconciled!

Such a talented person...

So in the end, Zhang Tingyu resisted all opinions and did such a shocking thing.

He actually put the answer sheet of Dai Mingshi, who had only passed one exam and couldn't make it to the apricot list, on top of Huiyuan Shi Yunjin's answer sheet!

When it was published, it was naturally the effect that Li Guangdi saw.

This is undoubtedly to tell the world that Dai Mingshi is the one in his mind for this exam!

For Dai Mingshi who failed the ranking, this is a completely unexpected honor.

Everyone else was about to leave the capital, but they saw the answer sheet brought over by someone at the last station. Dai Mingshi couldn't tell what it was like when he saw that his answer sheet was placed first...

He has been down and out for half his life, writing books for a living, how many years he has failed in the exams, and originally finished the first paper this year, thinking that it must be the same as in previous years, just happened to be addicted to alcohol, so he simply handed in the papers out of the exam room and drank flower wine , Zuishengmeng died.

After the apricot list was released, Dai Mingshi didn't pay much attention, did he?Read Fan Xiu's answer sheet more.

Dai Mingshi didn't even look at his answer sheet, and didn't bother to collect it. He didn't know that Zhang Tingyu mentioned a lot of compliments in his answer sheet.

Now when he heard the news suddenly, Dai Mingshi was stunned for a while, then he burst out laughing, threw the jug in his hand towards the corner of the inn, snatched the passerby's horse, and said: "Dai Mingshi borrowed a horse use!"

The person whose horse was borrowed was originally full of anger, but now he suddenly heard the word "Dai Mingshi", and he was stunned.

He forgot to stop him for a while, and saw Dai Mingshi go galloping away, and even returned to the capital!

"This is Dai Mingshi? That Dai Mingshi who only took one exam but beat Huiyuan Shi Yunjin on the answer sheet..."

That's right, it's Dai Mingshi.

Sitting in the room and flipping through the answer sheets, Gu Huaixiu was also shocked by Zhang Tingyu's boldness.

Huiyuan of Jinke is really aggrieved enough.

Zhang Tingyu's errand was well done, but he offended a lot.

But thinking about it the other way around, these people who were single-handedly promoted by him can eventually become Zhang Tingyu's great help in the court.

How happy is life?
It's just those four big things.

Thinking about it, Gu Huaixiu stretched his waist and walked outside.

In the garden, Mrs. Peng happened to be walking this way, and many maids around her were holding presents and looked beaming.

"Second sister-in-law, you finally came out today for a walk."

"I go out for a walk every day, but I just haven't met you." Gu Huaishu smiled, but in fact, Peng Shi never wanted to walk this way, what are you? "

"Brother Jinke is also on the apricot list. Thanks to the support of the second master, the former brother asked me to give you something. I hope the second sister-in-law will not dislike you."

Mrs. Peng was not happy a while ago and was extremely worried, but now who in the house does not compliment her?

The elder brother is about to become a Jinshi, so it can be said that he is proud of the scenery. Peng Weixin's ranking in the examination is so high, and he must not be able to get in the second place in the palace examination.To be a Jinshi is as simple as finding something out of a pocket.

It's just that Gu Huaishu glanced at the expensive gifts in the hands of the maid who followed Peng, but said: "Take them all back, originally your brother was recruited by virtue of his own ability, and it has nothing to do with the second master. When grading the papers, who knows whose answer papers it is? If you say you rely on the second master, you will make the second master disloyal."

Mrs. Peng hurriedly said: "Why is it so serious? It's just a gift from the sister-in-law. If the second sister-in-law doesn't accept it, it's not giving my siblings face."

"...I can't afford this face."

Originally, Zhang Tingyu had a lot of right and wrong, he had his own plans, and Gu Huaixiu had Gu Huaixiu's affairs to do, it was not that simple at all.

If you rashly accept Peng's stuff, who knows how it will be passed on in the future?
It can be said to be a gift from the sister-in-law, or it can be said that Peng Weixin asked someone to bribe Zhang Tingyu.

The two families are originally related by marriage, so how can they talk so much?

Thinking about it, Gu Huaishu could only refuse.

However, Peng felt that Gu Huaixiu was not interested in oil and salt.

Today's item was actually brought in by her elder brother, hoping to get Zhang Tingyu's help in the future.

But now Gu Huaishu is still putting on airs and refusing to accept it. Isn't this a slap in the face or something?
If you let your elder brother know that she doesn't even have the face to let Gu Huaishu accept things in this mansion, how can she have face with her mother's parents?

For a moment, Mrs. Peng lowered her head, with tears of grievance in her eyes: "Second sister-in-law accepts a little at least, just say it's a gift between sister-in-law and don't tell second master, anyway, it's just a wish of younger siblings. Why do you reject people thousands of miles away?"

"It's not that I don't accept it, but I dare not accept it. You should go back today. If you can take care of him in the future, the second master will definitely take care of him."

Gu Huaishu was really afraid that she would have a bad heart and that it would hurt the feelings of Zhang Tingyu and the others, so he spoke politely.

"It's not that the family doesn't enter the house, and they still say what kind of gift to give, but it's because they want to alienate us."

After hearing this, Mrs. Peng couldn't say anything more.

To force Gu Huaishu to accept the gift, isn't that admitting that he is an outsider?

She was not happy in her heart, and finally called the maids to come. After bringing so many gifts, she was about to return disappointed.

This second sister-in-law is too shameless!

Whatever you can afford and can't afford, you just don't want to give it at all!

Receive a gift, what problems can be received?

Peng Shi suddenly became unhappy, she buried her head and curled her lips, and saluted Gu Huaixiu hastily: "Since the second sister-in-law won't accept it, I'll ask the maids to take the things back."

With that said, the man turned around and left.

Gu Huaixiu really couldn't say a word. Seeing that Mrs. Peng had left, she felt panicked at the moment. She always felt that Mrs. Peng was choking on gunpowder when she spoke.

Zhang Tingyu recorded Peng Weixin, who was related to his family by marriage, and he has already been criticized.

But now, at a glance, it is clear that Peng's thing is not her own, and there is no such precious thing in her dowry, let alone whether it is possible to get it from Zhang Tingyu.

The Zhang family has always had a simple family style, it is impossible for Zhang Tingyu to have these things.

The only possibility is that it was sent by Peng Weixin. Where did Peng Weixin get so many good things?
All of them have mouths to eat people.

But I don't know what Peng Weixin's intentions are, if Zhang Tingyu is covered in muddy water because of this incident...

Gu Huaixiu suddenly lost the mood to visit the garden, and simply went back to the room and waited for Zhang Tingyu to come back.

Zhang Tingyu had a banquet outside, listening to the talk about Dai Mingshi in the streets and alleys, it's a pity to think about it, but when he returned to the mansion, he saw Gu Huaishu frowning.

"What's the matter today?"

"The fourth brother and sister are too confused. What exactly does your fourth brother like about her?"

Gu Huaixiu didn't understand yet, when he said marry, he would marry, Zhang Tingyu said it himself, and others naturally didn't have any doubts.

But the daughter-in-law is so irritating when she enters the door, and when she leaves with a perfunctory appearance, those who don't know think that their sisters-in-law have a big enmity, how can they look like a lady from a scholarly family?

Gu Huaixiu is usually polite and courteous to others, unless he meets someone who has already broken his face or is about to break his face, he will act like a shrew, but this Mrs. Peng, is he planning to tear his face apart from Gu Huaixiu?
Just thinking about it makes me angry.

Gu Huaishu rubbed his forehead and closed his eyes.

Zhang Tingyu asked her what was going on, and when he learned that it was Peng Weixin again, he didn't know what was tricky about it.

But the fortune came for nothing, presumably someone has already started to win over Peng Weixin.

As for who is wooing, it is still uncertain.

"Just wait and see what happens." He took her hand and said, "The male leads the outside, and the female leads the inside. Now I have a firm foothold. I just want you to eat and drink at home. You don't have to worry about anything. You don't need to calculate... the hardships in the early years were all endured for me, and now I will protect you from the wind and rain..."

"The weather is pretty good recently, so you don't need to shelter me from the wind and rain."

Gu Huaishu was in a bad mood, but was disturbed by his seemingly affectionate confession.

She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It turns out that you and I are one, why are you talking so much... those who don't know thought you had a foreign room, and you deliberately came to coax me."

Zhang Tingyu immediately pointed to the sky and said: "I am loyal, and I will never dare to betray my wife as my servant."

"...glib." Gu Huaixiu smiled, "But that Dai Mingshi, what are you thinking?"

No. 1 in the answer sheet of this subject is actually a failed candidate who did not make it to the apricot list. I am afraid that countless people who made the list will feel pain in the face, right?

Gu Huaishu was just worried about something happening.

Zhang Tingyu, however, was confident: "If there is anyone who is not good-looking, and dares to bring the answer sheet to the second master to argue, look at how the second master ridiculed him..."

"Second Master, someone outside said they wanted to find you..."

Ade didn't pay attention to what Zhang Tingyu was chatting with Gu Huaishu in the room, so he reported something when he came in.

Zhang Tingyu was stunned for a moment, and looked at Gu Huaishu.

Gu Huaishu laughed immediately: "Don't be that Shi Yunjin who came to you to argue?"

As a club member, this year is too aggrieved.

But Zhang Tingyu shook his head: "Shi Yunjin is quite a smart person, and he won't come here to make you unhappy. Ade, did that person hand over the name card?"

"I didn't hand in a name card, but he said it was Dai Mingshi." Ade remembered that it seemed to be the name.

"Dai Mingshi?"

Zhang Tingyu frowned upon hearing this.

Although Dai Mingshi failed the list this year, he was No.1 in the answer sheet, which is an honor no matter what.

Therefore, Dai Mingshi must also be regarded as Zhang Tingyu's disciple.

To be promoted and praised by the chief examiner is a blessing that cannot be cultivated in several lifetimes.

This Dai Mingshi was down and out, and he had been in the Qinlou and Chu halls for many years. He thought he would never be able to pass the test in his life, but he was suddenly picked up by Zhang Tingyu this year. Not long after, everyone in the north and south of the river knew that there was such a madman who only passed one exam.

Dai Mingshi galloped back home to pay homage to Zhang Tingyu.

He waited outside for a long time before someone from inside sent a message saying that the second master invited him to meet inside.

All the way through the door, bypassing the screen wall, and entering the hall, Dai Mingshi saw Zhang Tingyu standing in front of the hall, holding tea in his hand, with his back to the door, but looking up at a calligraphy and painting in the hall.

Dai Mingshi stood outside the door and bowed: "Student Dai Mingshi, I met Mr. Zhang."

Zhang Tingyu didn't turn around when he heard the voice, and just smiled: "Didn't Dai Juren get thrown all over his body by rotten eggs and rotten cabbages along the way?"

A person who failed the exam dared to occupy the first place in the answer sheet. If Zhang Tingyu was another Gongsheng student, he might have prepared countless eggs on the way, and threw them all on Dai Mingshi regardless of whether they were good or bad.

To be honest, Dai Mingshi has never been afraid of anyone in his life.

But today he felt a little guilty.

In the end, it was Mr. Zhang who promoted him. If he finished the next two exams in a proper manner, even if he was not the first in this year's exam, he should still be in the top ten.

It's a pity that with Huiyuan, Yayuan, and even a nine and a half Fan Xiu, he is the only one who is not famous.

No matter how crazy Dai Mingshi is, he also longs for fame and fortune. Now that he has missed his chance, he is also known as Yang Jingcheng. Thinking about it makes him feel bitter.

The more famous he became now, the more bitter Dai Mingshi felt.

I really regret it, but where in the world do I regret selling medicine?

Dai Mingshi sighed inwardly, but he could only shake his head and say "God's will tricks people".

Hearing Zhang Tingyu's lukewarm words now, how could Dai Mingshi know that he was mocking himself?

For a moment, Dai Mingshi was ashamed.

He lowered his head: "It's the students who are arrogant and missed the opportunity of this subject..."

"If you know you're crazy, just change it." Zhang Tingyu lifted the lid of the tea, and said unhurriedly, "The three examiners have already set your answer sheet as the first, so don't worry about you. What is the answer in the next two rounds? The national exam is as important as the first round of the provincial exam. It doesn’t matter what comes after. But who would have expected that your answer sheet has already been checked out and ticked. After the next two or three rounds of reviewing papers, I didn’t find you anyway... ...What is the chief examiner, how can you have your skills?"

This is the living irony.

Zhang Tingyu looked like it was a compliment, but Dai Mingshi couldn't stand it anymore.

Who said before that Zhang Tingyu was easy-going and unassuming? !
Dai Mingshi came back all the way, it's not like he didn't hear people talking about Zhang Tingyu, the streets and alleys said that this former number one scholar and the president of Jinke is an easy-going person who defies power and doesn't care about fame and fortune, but now Dai Mingshi After thinking about it for a while, I finally felt that something was wrong.

Where are you easygoing?
She looks easy-going, but every word she speaks is like the tip of a knife to gouge people's hearts!

Dai Mingshi didn't seize such a good opportunity this year, and fell down on the apricot list. He can only say that he made it himself.

so teasing...

However, Zhang Tingyu also specifically pointed at people's pain points.

What Zhang Tingyu wants to fight is his arrogance, "A person can be arrogant, but not arrogant. Too much arrogance is really arrogant. Eyes are higher than that, and eyes are spotless. It's not good."

"I read your "Nanshan Collection". You call yourself Qu Ping. The world is drunk and you are alone. But I said, the world is awake, but you are alone. And take a drink of Qingliangsan to wake you up? Today I will hold you up , throwing you to the ground, you should know that you have made countless mistakes."

I'm afraid there are so many examiners who have served in the exam, and I haven't seen anyone who has missed the exam for this reason?
Drink flower wine?
Zhang Tingyu didn't understand.

"I felt pity for you and wanted to beat you, so I engraved your answer sheet on Huiyuan. Now, are you awake?"

Awake?
drunk?
Dai Mingshi had already woken up.

When he learned that his answer sheet was placed before the first place in the test, he knew how wrong he was.

"What the old gentleman said is like enlightenment to the students? The students know their mistakes."

Zhang Tingyu turned to look at him, and asked Ade to serve tea: "Old father Tongcheng asked his younger brother to bring back Tongcheng local tea. You can also drink a bowl of Tongcheng local tea. We will leave today. Three years later, I, Tongcheng boy, will make a comeback. I don't know." ..."

After all, they are still from the same hometown.

Dai Mingshi knew the Zhang family a long time ago, and the Zhang family is the most famous family in Tongcheng.

Before going to Beijing for the imperial examination this year, several candidates in Tongcheng all went to the gate of Zhang's house to pay homage. Although Zhang Ying didn't see them because of avoiding suspicion, they all gave them a message, asking them to study hard and make progress.

Now when Dai Mingshi drank the little orchid of Tongcheng, he couldn't help but burst into tears and cried loudly.

After drinking the tea, he managed to calm down his emotions, and kowtowed to Zhang Tingyu's student before leaving.

"Ten years of cold windows, once mad, the one who will be blamed will be himself after all..."

The man did not shed tears, but he did not go to the sad place.

Zhang Tingyu put the teacup in his hand on the desk, and only turned his hands back, the shadow was drawn obliquely on the ground, forming a deep silhouette.

The pines and cypresses are as indifferent as before.

If the sky is weak and my blessing, I am strong and my virtue to welcome it; the sky is overwhelming and my shape is my shape, and I can relax and my heart is to make up for it;

Thinking about it carefully, he, Zhang Tingyu, has never changed.

In Vanity Fair, the ambition remains the same.
