Looking at the little brother who had already gone back to the study to study seriously, Lu Hanqiang could only smile bitterly, compared with his younger brother, his thoughts were simply at the level of demonism, although he worked hard to integrate into the world and study the things of this era, but the kind of things in his bones could not fit in.
Now that my mother has already had the signs of a tirade, then, according to the practice of learning from the court, I must start to digress.
"Mother, look at it, the second brother has begun to be sensible, and the Xixi I invited is also very attentive, I heard Wang Chengen say that the emperor will open Enke next year, is it better to let the younger brother participate in the township test this year for next year" For the second son's studies, the mother is still very satisfied, seeing that the second son's studies have also improved a lot, it is also time for him to try, at least this township test can touch the child's bottom line.
"The township test is necessary, and you should let your little brother try it."
The mother naturally changed the topic according to Lu Hanqiang's words, which made Lu Hanqiang quietly breathe a sigh of relief, and the corners of his mouth and eyebrows showed a treacherous smile.
But it is not very simple to let the second brother participate in the imperial examination, and in the Ming Dynasty, a four-level examination system was implemented, namely the courtyard examination, the township examination, the meeting examination and the palace examination.
There is a small test before the college exam.
Candidates who pass the county and government examinations are called "children".
Then take the provincial and local academy examinations, pass the college examinations, and are called "students", commonly known as "Xiucai" or "Xianggong".
Xiucai is eligible to participate in the township examination.
The township examination is held once every three years and is presided over by the chief examiner sent by the emperor.
The township examination is held in the autumn, this year is called "the year of Dabi", the township examination is called "lifting people", and the first name is "Xie Yuan".
In the second year of the township examination, the examination will be held in the capital, and only those who are eligible to participate in it will be eligible to participate.
The examination is held in the spring, and the name in the examination is "Gongsheng", and the first name is "Huiyuan".
The tributes had to participate in an examination presided over by the emperor himself, which was called the "palace examination".
The palace examination is divided into three top ranks, and those who are in the examination are "Jinshi".
The first name is three, given "Jinshi and the first", the first name is "champion", the second name is "Bangyan", and the third name is "Tanhua", collectively known as "Sanding Jia".
A number of people in the second class are given "Jinshi origin", and a number of people in the third class are given "same Jinshi background".
The current second brother is not a child, that is, the most basic examination to obtain the identity, this must also go back to his hometown to obtain this title.
"However, our household registration is in Shanxi, and we have to go back to the township test, but this is a mess, and he goes back with a child, I really don't feel at ease."
This is a big problem, the rules of the Ming Dynasty are still very strict, where is the household registration, where to go back to the township test, now Shanxi is being troubled by Gao Yingxiang's rogue army, hundreds of thousands of rogue soldiers are roaring back and forth, and I don't know if the township test can be held as scheduled, even if it is held, his little brother really can't go back, it's too dangerous.
"Why don't you talk to the household department and transfer our family's household registration to the capital, then your second brother's township test problem will be solved."
The mother stretched out her head and tentatively asked for Lu Hanqiang's opinion, and at this time, she hoped that she would strictly ask the son of a clean official to go through the back door and bribe her boss.
Lu Hanqiang thought about it for a while, and couldn't help but smile: "Mother reminds me right, although there are many students near this imperial capital, and the competition is fierce, but after all, it is still too peaceful, tomorrow I will discuss this matter with the official in charge of household registration in the household department, anyway, it is just to spend some more silver."
Speaking of the silver needed to bribe officials, Lu Hanqiang proudly leaned back on the chair, "Fortunately, our family lacks everything now, that is, there is no shortage of silver." ” Speaking of silver, my mother also looked relaxed, now at this time there is no bank to say, deposit money in the bank, not only no interest, but also give people a custodian fee.
Therefore, now Steward Zhang has to exchange the income of the teahouse and the copper money collected by the newspaper every day into silver, and carry it home with someone to hand it over to the mother for safekeeping.
Now that I think about it, should I recruit more domestic slaves, or that kind of very evil, it seems that it is no longer safe to take care of that thing with only one Chen Liang.
Alas, a lot of money is also a burden.
For the son of the running god, the mother still knocked on the table to pull back his spirit, "By the way, my son, you made a wish to the gods in the temple where we lived outside the city last time, and it was also blessed by the gods, so you are so quick to worry about food and clothing, and people are precious in Xinnuo, so you should take time to go to the temple with your mother to make a vow."
"Mother is the real off-topic this time.
Think about their own family can't be kissed, helpless to live in the broken temple, now counted, it has been close to two years, this year, their own did earn a lot, at that time they did fool the gods, but also robbed the fairy curtain, if the mother did not mention, he almost forgot, now think about it, whether it is for the mother's mood, or for the gods who really have or not, in fact, more to give themselves a comfort, should also go to the broken temple to see, take out some silver to repair it.
Thinking of this, Lu Hanqiang smiled and drained the wine in his cup, nodded and agreed: "It's just right, long live just crowned me as the minister of the aftermath of the post station, I can find an excuse not to go to the morning court at any time, and I will write an excerpt to find an excuse to take a leave of absence, and tomorrow I can easily take my mother back to the temple to have a look, which is also considered to be a distraction, and it is also considered a wish." ” "Okay, my mother wants to go back and have a look, so by the way, I will take out some silver and hire a few coolies to repair the temple."
The mother happily agreed, and then muttered with compassion on her face: "Our mother has been protected by the gods, so we have you today, repair the temple, maybe there will be homeless people living there this winter, which is also a merit for us." ” For the previous point, Lu Hanqiang said that he can have today, it is definitely not the protection of the gods, but the result of his own golden finger through the great god, and the result of hundreds of years of experience ahead, and for the latter, Lu Hanqiang absolutely agrees, his mother does not leave the hospital at home, but is dedicated to planting vegetables in the backyard with Chen Liang, looking at the gold and silver at home, it is really boring, fortunately, there is Miss Zhang Ruyu who often comes and goes, and Zhang Zihan, who often comes and goes, brings a monkey to chat, but how much it relieves the boredom of the motherAt this time, I am free, it is time to go out for a walk with my mother, whether I want to do it or not is secondary, and it is serious to let my mother scatter her heart.
"Okay, according to my mother's arrangement, our family will go to the old place tomorrow to visit again."
Lu Hanqiang decided with a smile.
"Good."
The mother finally nodded happily again, but immediately put forward a decision that made Lu Hanqiang embarrassed: "Tomorrow I will go to ask Miss Ruyu to go with us, it is said that she is the family of the nearby Zhuangzi, and let her go home by the way."
When he said that, he carefully observed his son's expression.
Lu Hanqiang looked at the old lady in surprise, I really don't know how she, a feudal person, thought of asking a girl to travel with a big man of his, isn't this too much.
But thinking of the smiling girl, Lu Hanqiang was still full of approval and expectation for his mother's proposal, so he didn't care about what to say.
"Chen Liang can't go, he has to watch at home."
The mother immediately remembered what was under her bed, and this thing should not be taken lightly.
Lu Hanqiang looked at Chen Liang, who held the bowl on his face, and smiled apologetically, this is all about money. t1706231537:
