Tang Bohu Marries Qiuxiang

Chapter 182 The Imperial Examination Situation ([-])

Back in his bedroom, some empresses served the drunken emperor, Zhu Youtang looked at a court lady washing her feet and said, "Did I forget something?"

--------------------split line
On the other side, the dialogue between Wang Zaijin and Tang Bohu is still going on.

"Tang Qianhu is really open-minded." Wang Zaijin said again: "I admire Tang Qianhu's talent and learning so much. I have admired Tang Qianhu for a long time and have not met Tang Qianhu for a long time."

Speaking of which, Tang Bohu finally understood that this guy really wanted to cling to him.It is no small matter for a minister of the Ministry of War, one of the six ministers, to cling to him. Tang Bohu didn't want to express his position so quickly, but just said, "I must come to Mr. Wang's mansion to toast and talk about Jiangnan Fengyue together when I have time."

Wang Zaijin nodded with a half-smile and said: "It's getting late, I should go home."

"Lord Wang, go slowly." Tang Bohu bid farewell.

One night at the royal banquet, Tang Bohu met six ministers.The six ministers are the top of the hundred officials in the court, and Tang Bohu can see the core of the civil official group in the true sense.The Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Punishment, these six departments are the powers in the court that distribute the rights of Ming Dynasty.

Tang Bohu naturally ignored Wang Zaijin's invitation to him. It was already the Spring Festival and everywhere in the capital was full of joy and excitement. In the new year, people were looking forward to a happy life in the coming year.

these days.Zhu Houzhao's foot restraint was also lifted, and after winter came spring. Tang Bohu and the prince were either in Tangzhuang or in the East Palace, or by the small river, or in the woods.

Living a happy life of not hearing anything outside the window and hiding in a small building, if you can be lazy, you don't do serious things.If you can play skating, you will never be serious.
For two full months, Zhu Houzhao and Tang Bohu lived an outrageously lazy life. .

After the Spring Festival, in February, the first big event in the capital is Chunwei, which is the examination.

Qiuwei was held in the Jiangnan Gongyuan. Qiuwei was the rural examination and it was also the largest exam for Ming students held in Ming Dynasty. Chunwei in the capital, that is, only the outstanding students screened after the rural examination were eligible to enter, which was the penultimate of the imperial examination. After passing this pass, it is the palace examination, the examination presided over by the emperor himself, and it is only a shortcoming if you can pass the examination and get the title on the gold list.a step far.

And now Tang Bohu is at home blowing the spring breeze, drinking some wine, basking in the sun, and planning to sleep comfortably. At this time, the porter at home hurriedly came to report, "Master, someone said that he was your childhood friend in Jiangnan. , I want to visit you."

Friends from Jiangnan?Tang Bohu had an idea, "Zhu Zhishan is back?"

The porter replied, "It's not Mr. Zhu, but a young man named Xu Jing."

Xu Jing, who is Xu Jing Tang Bohu pondered for a long time, Tang Bohu sat up and asked, "Is this Xu Jing from Jiangyin?"

Not long after, the concierge came back again and reported: "Young master, this person is Xu Jing from Jiangyin."

The corner of Tang Bohu's mouth twitched, it turned out that there really was Xu Jing, and Tang Bohu's imperial examination fraud case in history had an inseparable relationship with this Xu Jing.

But now that I am a Jinyiwei, I will not take the imperial examination again. What happened in Jiangnan made the officials of the Jiangnan department of the civil official group quite afraid of Tang Bohu. If I take off the official clothes of the Jinyiwei, it is inevitable Tang Bohu knew that he would be counterattacked by civil officials, and he would not get burned.

A very strange feeling that history has taken a fork in the road here and there has been a turning point.Tang Bohu no longer went to the imperial examination, so what is the situation of the current imperial examination, and what will happen to the fraud case in the imperial examination back then? Tang Bohu said to the porter: "Call this Xu Jing, I want to see he."

When he saw Xu Jing, he found that this guy also looked four or five years older than himself, about 20 years old.

In the memory of this life, Tang Bohu is very strange to Xu Jing, even from time travel, Tang Bohu has never met this guy, but the other party keeps saying that he is a friend of Jiangnan

"Crassman Xu Jing has met Mr. Tang." Xu Jing said carefully Tang Bohu.

"I don't know you." Tang Bohu observed him and said, "But you said that you are my friend in Jiangnan. I don't understand that."

Xu Jing smiled awkwardly and said: "Master Tang, we are all scholars born in the south of the Yangtze River. At the beginning, you and I were just ordinary scholars, but now Master Tang has transformed into a thousand households of Jinyiwei. I really envy me as a scholar in Jiangnan. "

"Master Tang is full of talent and learning, but he can only be subservient to the Jinyiwei. It is a pity that this military officer Qiu Ba is really a pity, but Mr. Tang. Why did you join the Jinyiwei?"

"We don't know each other well, why should I tell you," Tang Bohu said in a concealed manner.

"Come here this time. Caomin is also because he knows that Mr. Tang has a lot of things to do every day. If Caomin asks to see Mr. Tang as an ordinary scholar, he will definitely not see me." Xu Jing explained

"You're right, I don't want to see you at all." Tang Bohu said directly.

"But why did Master Tang want to see me?" Xu Jing asked back.

Tang Bohu didn't like talking to guys like Xu Jingjing very much.The other party kept looking at him with a very high attitude all the time, which made Tang Bohu very uncomfortable.

"It turns out that you came here because you admired my talent. Are you admiring me enough now?" Tang Bohu waved his fan and said, "I'm here to see off my guests."

"Wait a minute, wait a moment, Master Tang, wait a moment." Xu Jing said anxiously: "Cao Min, who came here to represent many students from Jiangnan, just asks Master Tang to join us at the cultural platform."

Xu Jing hurriedly said: "I don't know if Mr. Tang is interested in coming to rectify the reputation of our Jiangnan students."

"You want me to help you pull the tiger's skin to pull the big banner." Tang Bohu looked at Xu Jing with a smile: "You say this strangely, but I know it in my heart, and you also know it in my heart. If I help you rectify your names this time , then I must be responsible for what happened to Jiangnan students in the imperial examination this time, and I said yes and no."

Having said that, Xu Jing was silent.What will happen in this imperial examination.After passing the provincial examination, Xu Jing knew that his talent and learning were not as good as other students, and he was mediocre. If he wanted to pass this general examination, he would have no chance of winning. However, regarding what would happen in the imperial examination, why did Tang Bohu say this? Before coming to the capital, Xu Jing really thought about how to deal with the imperial examination.

A scholar who can pass the imperial examination several times knows in his heart that he is now a young man and a good opportunity to show his talents, and he doesn't want to miss it.In the imperial examination, he just wanted to do something, but Xu Jing went to the sea in a flash, and he didn't say anything to anyone, but Tang Bohu's eyes told him to give money, this man could see his thoughts at a glance.

Xu Jing bowed and resigned: "I have disturbed you, but I hope Mr. Tang will forgive me, and the grass-roots will leave."
