Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Chapter 950 Too Proud

This pen is more expensive than a good book, and Bai Shan's is the most expensive. Among the three pens he picked, the most expensive one cost eight taels of silver, and he paid for it without batting an eye.

The shopkeeper brought the box, carefully packed the pens and ink sticks they selected, and then took a box from the clerk with a smile and opened it, and asked with a smile: "Masters and ladies, do you want to see it?" Look at the inkstone? This is the best inkstone in our shop, but it is made by a famous artist."

The three of them glanced at it and shook their heads together. The inkstone looked very expensive at first glance, and the three of them were still young, so they still couldn't quite understand why adults liked to collect inkstones.

Seeing that they were so straightforward, the shopkeeper was slightly disappointed, but still smiled and sent them out.

After spending a lot of money in the bookstore, everyone thinks it is very cheap when they look at the various exquisite, beautiful or ingenious things on the street.

The three of them couldn't suppress their raging shopping desires, and were about to lift their feet to go down, Daji put the box away and turned around and said: "Master, Master Tang, Miss Man, it's time for us to go home, it's almost time for dinner It's time."

The three of them put their feet back, climbed into the carriage, and reluctantly lay down at the window looking at the stalls on both sides of the street.

Man Bao touched his little heart and said, "I really can't bear it."

Bai Shan was also reluctant, but now he has returned to his senses, "We don't need so many things for the time being when we buy them back. Let's wait until we buy our own house for fun."

Bai Erlang was fascinated when he heard it, "Can I also buy a house in the capital?"

Man Bao calculated his money and said: "I can't afford a big house, but I can still afford a smaller one, but we are not sure whether we will live in the capital for a long time, so there is no need to spend money on it at this time." .”

"That is, if the king of Yizhou enters the capital to destroy us, we have to run for our lives," Bai Shan said, "We can still take the money with us, but not the house."

Sitting in the carriage now, we are all people who know each other well, and the driver outside is Daji, so Bai Erlang didn't hide it anymore, and clearly expressed his worry, "The king of Yizhou really doesn't know Us?"

"I don't know," Bai Shan said, "Don't you think we've passed the exam and are about to enter the Imperial College? If it's possible for him to know, Master Tang will write to us and tell us."

Bai Erlang lowered his voice and asked, "Then you guys really want to beat Dengwen drums in the future?"

Bai Erlang looked at the small bodies of the two of them and said, "Can you bear that big stick?"

Man Bao said: "We are not stupid, so we don't want to beat Dengwen drum."

Even if you want to avenge your parents, you can't do it with your own life, it's not worth it.

Bai Shan also nodded, "There are many ways to sue, this is the worst policy, unless someone promises me that I won't have to be punished with a cane, otherwise I won't beat the Dengwen drum."

Bai Erlang breathed a sigh of relief, "I was thinking that if you go to beat the Dengwen drum, then I can only find a doctor for you and wait by the side."

"Then thank you, I am a doctor myself." Man Bao said.

Bai Shan was concerned about another matter, "I don't know when the king of Yizhou will enter Beijing."

Other ministers of the imperial court were also concerned about this matter, because in less than a month, the emperor had proposed twice to let the king of Yizhou enter the capital, and each time the courtiers expressed their opposition.

It has been pushed from June to July, and July is the ghost month. The queen mother thought it was unlucky to go out this month, so she was very angry. For two days in a row, she announced the family members of several ministers into the palace and let them sit on the bench.

Those ministers were the ones who most opposed the King of Yizhou's advance to Beijing.

I thought they would take a step back, but who knew that the ministers were aroused to rebel, and instead became more forceful in their opposition. These days, the emperor didn't even mention this matter, because every time he started talking, he was dismissed. The ministers sprayed saliva all over their faces.

But the strange thing is that Master Wei Zhi was not among them this time.

Although he also expressed his opinion at the court meeting that he disagreed with King Yizhou's entry into the capital, he was not the one who opposed it most fiercely. Therefore, his wife escaped unharmed and was not announced into the palace, and was not remembered by the queen mother for the time being.

The Guozijian did not release the rankings until the next morning, but the results were actually released early.

After all, there are only forty-eight students in this exam, and each exam takes half a day, and the remaining half day, the examiners will pass the test papers and the results will come out.

So it was only two hours after the poetry and fu exam yesterday afternoon, and all the results came out.

Today is mainly about ranking.

The Guozijian first ranked the places internally, and then presented the top ten papers they thought were the best to the emperor, and asked him to choose the best three.

After all, the top three are going to enter Guozixue.

Of course, this matter is not entirely up to the emperor. The opinion of Guozijian Jijiu is also very important, and Guozijian Jijiu represents all the officials of Guozijian.

The emperor read all ten people's theories and poems, and only these two papers were in dispute. Tie Jing and Mo Yi almost had fixed answers, and there was nothing to dispute.

The three papers placed on the top are the three considered the best by the Imperial College.

The emperor opened it word by word, and picked up the paper in the middle to read, it was Bai Shan's paper.

Kong Jijiu saw it and said: "Bai Shan is fourteen years old. Although he is young, his articles are full of inspiration. The most commendable thing is that he is knowledgeable about the past and the present, and he has something to say. Obviously he has not only read a lot of books, but also experienced abroad. .”

The emperor asked with a smile, "Then why did Kong Qing only rank him second? I think his theory is better than Peng Zhiru's."

Kong Jijiu said: "But this person is too arrogant, I think Zhang Yang is too mellow, so I have to polish it."

"Oh?" The emperor closed their papers and said in confusion, "But why haven't I heard his name? But Peng Zhiru's name is often heard, obviously he is very low-key."

Kong Jijiu shook his head, "Your Majesty, you can recognize people by reading, and you can also recognize people by reading texts. There is a sense of arrogance in his words, and it is precisely because the ministers have never heard of him that it proves his pride. "

"May I ask who doesn't submit essays first to enter the Beijing exam? Even if he doesn't submit essays to become famous, he will find other ways to become famous and publicize his talent, so that others will know that he is a talented person." Kong Jijiu said: "Peng Zhiru is only as good as He came to Beijing two days earlier. After entering Beijing, he became famous in the Zhuangyuan building, and he also submitted poems and essays to us, but he kept quiet and just took the exam. Obviously he had too much confidence in himself and felt that he would definitely be able to enter the national exam. Zixue, don't bother to be famous."

emperor:……

Kong Jijiu stroked his beard and shook his head, "He's only fourteen years old, to be precise, he hasn't even turned fourteen years old yet, so proud, I'm afraid he will be arrogant in the future, it's not advisable, it's not advisable."
