Crossing the Qinghe Landlord gl

The new emperor had just ascended the throne, and the Ministry of Rites and the Taichang Temple under him had quickly negotiated a new year name according to the decree. With the indirect participation of the new emperor, the new year name was designated as "God Bless"—hope God, With God's help, during his reign, the weather was smooth and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.

The Ministry of Rites and Zongzheng Temple also stated that according to the ritual system, when the new emperor ascends the throne, the title of King Najia should be changed.After everyone agreed, the new emperor decided to take back the title of King Jia and change it to King Lu.King Lu was the title of the second kingdom, and in fact King Jia was demoted to a lower level, not only the number of food towns was reduced, but also the rank of Lumi was reduced accordingly.

As for the imperial court, many of King Jia's cliques have been cleaned up, and all government offices are too busy to complain.The new emperor felt that talents were dying, so he specially opened Enke and Zhike, allowing qualified officials and Jieju candidates to participate in the imperial examination.

"Enke" was set up by the emperor to win people's hearts. As long as the Jieju people who passed the Fajie Examination failed several provincial or palace examinations in a row, or reached a certain age, they could be given a "special name" by the emperor.However, after a person of such a background becomes an official, his status will be greatly reduced.

The "systematic subject" is not a special subject or a regular subject. It is a subject opened by the court or the emperor in order to select someone who is outstanding in a certain aspect, and does not limit the time. Son, Ju Ren.If the emperor needs to remonstrate with his ministers, he will open the subject of "virtuous founders who are able to speak out and speak extremely well" to select suitable candidates.

The "Enke" and "Zhike" opened by the new emperor gave the scholars who stayed in Luoyang and the students of the Imperial College and Taixue a great opportunity. Going to Luoyang is too much trouble, and they don't have such financial resources, so they can only wait for the provincial examination two years later.

Xia Luojin, who was in Taixue, got the news, and his heart couldn't hold back the turbulence. Although his background in the system department was not as good as that of the regular department, he didn't know whether he would be on the list in the provincial examination two years later, so he Don't miss any chance.

When Zhang Guangqun came to him, he told him about his decision and asked Zhang Guangqun if he wanted to take the exam.Although Zhang Guangqun was a student of the Imperial Academy, due to the flaws in the system and the privileges of official households, he often asked for leave to play.Zhang Tingxuan already had a promising eldest son, Zhang Dongliang, who was recording affairs for the prince Zuo Chunfang, so the requirements for him were not strict.

Zhang Guangqun rolled his eyes when he heard the words, and said with a smile, "Take an exam! The last exam was eight years ago, so we must not let this opportunity go, but don't hold out too much hope." He just wanted to go. Going through the motions, first feel the pressure that is greater than the provincial exam, and he will be able to cope well when he takes the provincial exam two years later.

Xia Luojin is already mentally prepared. After all, this time they will not only have to compete with other scholars and students of the Imperial College, but also with officials who are already officials. The pressure is even worse than the provincial examination.

There are a total of "ten subjects" announced this time, ranging from direct remonstrance, Broadcom allusions, to talents and knowledge, detailed official management, to insight into strategy, military strategy, etc. Almost all talents need to be recruited.In addition, Taifu Temple and others also need officials who are good at mathematics to be responsible for cashiers, and this needs to be selected from the mathematics students of Guozijian.

Xia Luojin thought about these subjects carefully, and found that he seemed to only be able to choose one of the two subjects of "Broadcom Allusions" and "Genius and Wisdom".His temperament did not dare to offend Yan Zhijian, and he did not know the rules of officials, and he had no military strategy.

In April, Xia Luojin, Zhang Guangqun and more than [-] people took part in the ten-subject system examinations. After passing the two rounds of the bachelor's college and palace examinations, everyone went back to wait for the good news.

Zhang Guangqun still eats, sleeps, wakes up to play, and is not nervous at all, but Xia Luojin is very nervous. He waited for nearly 20 days before finally receiving the news of the announcement.

There are five grades in the system of subjects, the first and second grades are basically few people will pass the exam, but the fourth and fifth grades are common.Although the third class is in the middle, if there are no outstanding people to attract the emperor's attention, the first and second classes will basically be suspended, so the third class is the most outstanding among these people.

And Xia Luojin won the fifth class of the "Talent and Wisdom" subject, became one of the ten candidates in the subject, and was awarded the post of Fengli Lang of Taichang Temple of the ninth rank.As for the more outstanding people, they will be awarded the official eight-rank Dali judge and other officials.

Although he is only a junior official of the ninth rank, it is already the beginning of his official career. In the coming year, Xia Luojin will also be able to participate in the provincial examination. As long as he has a Jinshi background, his official rank will be able to rise further!

However, Xia Luojin still consulted Zhang Tingxuan for advice.

In the past year, he had been taken care of by Zhang Tingxuan in Luoyang, and he knew very well that Zhang Tingxuan only gave him care for Zhang He's sake.At the same time, he also took a fancy to his talent. If he has something to do in the future, he can become Zhang Tingxuan's help. Therefore, even Zhang Bing's second son, Zhang Xing, Zhang Tingxuan will not be concerned about whether Zhang Bing and Zhang He have a relationship. Dislike and abandon it.

It was already early May when the news of Xia Luojin's appointment as an official came back to Liujiaqiao Village.

May has entered the rainy season, and the weather is hot and muggy, and every household is preparing for the Dragon Boat Festival, and San Xia and Aunt Xia are starting to worry about preparing to marry Xia Su Niang.

Once Xia Jiniang was 19 years old and she was still not ready to marry. She was often laughed at by Aunt Xia, but in the blink of an eye, her daughter Xia Su Niang also turned 19 years old.Although there were quite a few people asking to marry Xia Su Niang, they were dissatisfied when they finally learned of the dowry that Xia San could give.There are also some whose origins were disliked by San Xia and Aunt Xia, so that Xia Su Niang couldn't find a good family for a long time.

"Perhaps Er Niang can also find an official household?" Second Aunt Xia would often say that, but Third Aunt Xia immediately heard that she was mocking their third housekeeper for finding Xia Su Niang with the standard of Zhang He. Husband-in-law.

Xia San and Aunt Xia did have such thoughts, but Xia Su Niang is not as lucky as Xia Ji Niang; and the children of official households are not as strange as Zhang He, who will work in the fields and even fall in love with Xia Su Niang.So they lowered the standard, at least they had to be Jiejuren, who would have a chance to become an official in the future.

But there are too few who meet the conditions, and the matchmaker doesn't like the little money that San Xia and Aunt Xia gave, and she is unwilling to make a good marriage for Xia Su Niang.

After the news that Xia Luojin became an official came back, more people came to ask for marriage. The Xia family hadn't digested the joy of Xia Luojin being an official, but they were a little headache from the quarrel with these people.

What did Feng Lilang of Taichang Temple do? No one knew what he was doing. It was enough to know that he was an official in Beijing.And after having an in-law who is an official in the court, they will not be easily bullied, which is why Xia Su Niang became so popular all of a sudden.

And Xia Er and Xia San did not dare to say harsh words in front of Xia Da and Xia Cui's family, but when facing outsiders, they became more confident.Old man Xia also felt elated. He no longer often lay sick in his room to rest, but straightened up and walked around the house. Everyone who saw him would say hello.

Xia Da and Xia Cuishi did not expect that Xia Luo Jin would take the examination of the middle school and be an official.He didn't know what the system was, so he planned to find Zhang He to find out.Xia Cuishi hurriedly called to stop him, and said, "You can't find anyone even if you go to the Zhang family!"

Xia Da looked at Xia Cuishi blankly, then suddenly slapped his head, remembering that Zhang He and Xia Jiniang had already appeared to go to Guangzhou two months ago.

From Zhang He's idea of ​​going to Guangzhou to their departure, it took two months to plan.

There are many things she has to do. First, to ensure that sweet potatoes can be promoted and planted smoothly, even if there are books, many people still don't understand.Besides, there are not many sources of sweet potato seedlings. Except for the government, she has the most. Therefore, in order to ensure that others can get sweet potato seedlings from her, she must ensure that the farmland is properly managed.

In addition to farming, she also has to ensure the safety of the road to Guangzhou and other issues.

At the beginning, she did not hide the fact that she wanted to find Mrs. Liu. Although Mrs. Liu objected to her going to Guangzhou with Xia Jiniang and Xiao Peanut, Zhang He's attitude was very tough, so she could only find a few people. The servant gave Zhang He a push.In addition, Zhang He was also taught to manage points along the way to ensure that they would not encounter local bullies.

Although Xia Da and Xia Cui Shi also wanted to object when they informed Xia Da at the beginning, after all, it is enough to let the servants do the job of finding someone, but if they encounter danger on the road and have an accident, the loss outweighs the gain.However, considering that Mrs. Liu was Zhang He's biological mother, and she was filial to find someone, Xia Da and Xia Cui could not say anything against it.

Zhang He and Xia Jiniang had been away for two months, and every time they arrived in a state, someone would send a letter back to report their safety. The last time Xia Da received a letter was when they arrived in Shaozhou.If there are no accidents, they will receive their letter to Guangzhou after a while.

Xia Da and Xia Cuishi secretly prayed in their hearts that there would be no accidents, and they had no time to worry about Zhang He and Xia Jiniang. They still needed someone to help point out what to do about Xia Luojin. They were worried that if they didn't pay attention, they would do something wrong. It hurt Xia Luojin.After much deliberation, Xia Da decided to ask Xia Luojin's wife Xu to find Liu.

Xia Luojin is an official in Beijing. If there is no accident, the Xu family will go to Luoyang to take care of Xia Luojin, but it is inevitable that other members of the Xia family will also have ideas.Xia Da has never experienced these things, and it is not suitable for him to go to Liu Shi, so he can only ask Xu Shi to ask Liu Shi for advice. For those who come to the door because of this, Mrs. Liu must not refuse to see her.

Although Xia Luojin has contributed the most money from the Xia family along the way, Zhang He's sponsorship and the care given by the Zhang family when he was in Luoyang are important reasons why Xia Luojin can spend a year studying in Taixue safely— — Without Zhang Guangqun's protection, it would be difficult for a poor family like Xia Luojin to live in peace in the Imperial College.

And if it wasn't for Zhang Tingxuan's confession, Zhang Guangqun might have become one of the people who bullied Xia Luojin just like other officials' children took pleasure in teasing and bullying the poor.And although Zhang Guangqun couldn't be the leader among so many Tai students in the Imperial College, but Zhang Tingxuan was the crown prince—he was the new emperor's favorite, and these people would not offend him easily.

For Zhang Tingxuan, it was just a word of confession, but for the children of the poor family, it was already a great care.Xia Luojin is very aware of this, so in the letter to Xia's family, he never forgets to mention Zhang's family.

When Mrs. Xu mentioned this to Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Liu raised her eyebrows indistinctly, and then smiled and said, "He has a heart."

Using this method to win the favor of the Liu family, or perhaps the Zhang family, although it is a bit roundabout, it is better than it is useful.Even the Liu family is somewhat satisfied with Xia Luojin's behavior: only those who know how to repay her kindness and know how to measure are the people that the Zhang family needs.

Mrs. Liu didn't mention much about Mrs. Xu, but she told her clearly about one thing: "Although he is an official, he is not enough to make the Xia family an official household. You have to let the members of the Xia family know."

The most basic condition for becoming an official household is to have the qualifications of Yinbu. When the Qin Dynasty was established, only officials of the sixth rank or above, and those whose wives, children, and grandchildren were within the third rank could become official households.However, the system of yin compensation later caused the problem of redundant officials. In order to control redundant officials, many conditions were deliberately changed, the most obvious of which was changing the qualification of the sixth rank to the fifth rank. The quota has also changed.

The reason why Zhang Yan, Zhang He, and Zhang Xian are official households is because Zhang Tingxuan's official position is enough for them to enjoy the qualifications for yin compensation. Although the one who yin compensation must be his son in the end, Zhang Yan and Zhang He are still official households.But once Zhang Tingxuan died and the qualification of Yinbu was given to his son, Zhang Yan and Zhang He were separated from the qualifications of official households.

Although Xia Luojin is an official, his official position is too low. He can only bring convenience to his children and great honor to his parents, but he cannot allow other members of the Xia family to enjoy privileges.Once members of the Xia family commit a crime, not only will Xia Luojin be implicated, but he will also suffer the consequences.

Mrs. Xu understood, and went back to talk to Xia Dayi, Xia Dao: "I see, I will restrain them!" His waist straightened as he spoke.

Seeing that he was finally not that weak, Xia Cui was not to mention how happy she was, but when she thought of Xia Luosi, she worried: "Supposedly, shouldn't Silk be closed?"

Xu said: "The Zhang family said that the imperial court has allowed people other than officials to operate business."

Mrs. Xu was a little vague. After all, Mrs. Liu did not go into details, and the court considered more about the management of the family of officials. There will be any restrictions, so Xia Luosi can continue to operate "Xia Erlang Herbal Medicine Shop" with confidence.

Xia Cuishi heaved a sigh of relief. Apart from doing business with Fang's family, Xia Luosi's crude drug business is also getting better and better. He has already changed to a spacious, large, and good location to reopen.And the life of the Xia family can get better and better, and it is also necessary for him to send money home.

But when Xia Cui saw that Xia San was going to propose a kiss for Xia Su Niang, she remembered that Xia Luosi was too old.With Xia Luosi's current ability, and with a brother like Xia Luojin, he can marry a good wife, so he also started talking to him about marriage.

After Zhang He and Xia Jiniang returned from Guangzhou, Xia Luosi and Xia Suiniang also made engagements.

The author has something to say: Based on the fact that many friends in the previous chapter did not read the story in the little green characters, so this chapter specifically explains that there is a story o(*￣︶￣*)o

And the last chapter actually didn’t end suddenly at all (it won’t write about the protagonist planting all the modern crops, and it won’t write about the things after the little flowers grow up) and the existence of the extra chapter is actually to avoid the incoherence of the text Next, spell it all out, and write some interesting follow-up stories.

(One more whispered spoiler: Xia Jiniang will never know that Zhang He is worn by a soul.)
