Reincarnation of Soul Cultivation 2

Liu Shi wanted to give Liu Sheng a younger brother and sister, so the healthy Liu soon became pregnant again.

This is a great joy for the single-generation family. The elders almost hold Mrs. Liu in their hands, and they all think that she is blessed, so they broke the fate of their family's single-generation family.

Before marrying, Liu Shi's only worry about marrying Liu Shi was that Liu Shi's family would be passed down for several generations, fearing that he would not be able to have children if he married into Liu Shi's family, and would become a sinner who would cut off the family's incense.After Mr. Zao got off Liu Sheng, Mrs. Liu really felt relieved.Now that she is pregnant with her second child, it is an unexpected joy for both men and women.

Liu thought that before she came to Beijing with her husband's family, her father, rich man Liu, secretly gave her 100 taels of silver as private money, and asked her to have more children while she was young.At that time, she wanted Liu Shi's family to be a single child, and it might be difficult to have a second child.Who knew that she became pregnant not long after entering Beijing?

At that time, her father also said that Liu Shi went to Beijing to see the prosperity and wealth, and wondered if his temperament would change. Fortunately, she had given birth to the eldest son of the Liu family, so even if Liu Shi got a new woman in Beijing, he would not be afraid.As long as she is filial to her elders, her life in the Liu family will not be bad.

At that time, listening to her father say these things, she still felt strangely uncomfortable.However, her father cited several examples of poor people who became rich and then changed their temperament drastically.Then he told her that even if Liu Shi had other intentions, don't make trouble with him, and raise Liu Sheng well, then no one can shake her position in the Liu family.

At that time, although Liu Shi didn't think that Liu Shi's temperament would change drastically, she was still psychologically shadowed by what her father said.It wasn't until he entered the capital and reunited with Liu Shi that he found that he still had the same temperament, and there were no women, maidservants and concubines around him, so he felt relieved.

Liu Shi also can't laugh or cry when the elders attribute everything to Liu Shi, it's obviously his credit, right? !

However, Mrs. Liu is loved by the elders, and Liu Shi has no objection.Liu's nature is honest, a bit naive to be honest, even if he is favored, he will not be arrogant.

The whole family can live in harmony, and Liu Shi also feels happy.

Liu Sheng is still young, Liu Shi is not in a hurry to enlighten him.Not everyone is as talented as Liu Shi'an, or born with knowledge like Liu Shi.Liu Sheng is just an ordinary child, and he is still suitable for step-by-step learning.Liu Shi just took the time to teach him some rules and etiquette, so that he could develop good habits when he was still young.

Here in Liushi, there is no rule of having children but not grandchildren, and children can be pampered for so many years.When he was older and entered school, in order not to raise a prodigal son, Liu Shi would be a strict father and set strict demands on his son.

So when his son was still a little meatball, Liu Shi was very happy to pamper him and take him out to play.

Liu Sheng is in good health, with a thick body, and his family can't hold him for long.The capital is not the countryside, there are strangers everywhere, Liu Shi's grandparents and parents are afraid that Liu Sheng will be taken away by human traffickers outside or get lost, so they usually won't let him go out.

Now Liu Sheng likes his own father who can take him out the most. When Liu Shi is not at home, Liu Sheng will wander around the yard looking for him.

Liu Shi'an said that there was something wrong with the chief examiner of this session's exam. Of course Liu Shi believed it. As for what the problem was and when the problem broke out, Liu Shi didn't worry at all.As long as it doesn't affect his participation in the next exam, it's fine.

As a result, the chief examiner was exposed to cheating in the imperial examination.

In the process of the examination, after the list was released in the examination, and after the students who made it to the list took part in the palace examination held in the palace, there was no news of cheating in the imperial examination.

On the contrary, the students of this subject were either admitted to the Imperial Academy or waited for the imperial court to select officials. After they all had their own futures, only one fellow Jinshi broke out after drinking that someone cheated in the examination room.

The emperor was furious, and sent his confidants to investigate the matter. After investigation, the chief examiner himself did not disregard his own future for mere money, but his dandy son made a lot of money through this test.

The examiner's son is not good at reading, and he doesn't even have the reputation of being a scholar, so of course he will not participate in this year's examination.The chief examiner didn't have much defense against his playboy son, so he let him stealthily copy out the exam questions.

This dude is not good at studying, but he is an expert in cheating in imperial examinations.He didn't cast a wide net either, as it would be too easy to be exposed.Instead, he used his confidantes to investigate those candidates who came to Beijing to rush for the exam, and specially selected those candidates with excellent family background who failed to pass the test repeatedly. .Even if he didn't sell many exam questions, each one was worth a thousand dollars.

There are too many scholars who have achieved fame in Juren. About 300 people are selected in each examination.Now the chief examiner's son gave them this bit of luck. They prepared the answer sheets in advance, and many candidates who failed the exam many times passed the exam.

Generally, when the imperial examination fraud is revealed, it is during the process of the imperial examination, or just after the examination, and the final result of the examination has not yet been determined.So whether it is a re-examination or how to deal with it, there is still time.

But not this time.

Now the palace examination in front of the emperor has been completed, the ranks of the [-] Jinshi and fellow Jinshi have already been determined, the Jinshi admitted to the Imperial Academy are already studying, and some of the waiting Jinshi and fellow Jinshi have already obtained official positions.

There is no way to retake the exam anyway.

Fortunately, the emperor personally set the questions in the palace examination, and the examination and correction of articles were conducted in front of the emperor's eyes. At least the candidates who ranked high in the palace examination had real talents and real learning.

Most of the candidates who participated in the fraud were in the ranks of Jinshi.

The emperor was very angry, not only ransacked the chief examiner's home and exiled him, but also sentenced the chief examiner's son to death. All the candidates who participated in the fraud, no matter whether they participated in the palace examination or not, or what their rankings were in the palace examination, were all dismissed from their merits, and the imperial court would never hire them. , In addition, there are punishments such as court rods.

Such an outrageous thing happened in the country's talent promotion ceremony, which made the emperor and the court feel ashamed.Therefore, even those Jinshi and fellow Jinshi who did not participate in fraud in this class will inevitably receive cold treatment from the emperor and the court.

In the last imperial examination, several young and promising candidates, such as Tanhua Liu Shi'an, were highly valued by the emperor, and they were often called around to take the exam, and they seemed to have a bright future.

This year, there are also champions, second places, Tanhua, and talented Jinshi.

But the emperor felt disturbed, he didn't want to see them, and he didn't call him to observe the school carefully.Just let them fight in the officialdom.Being able to spell it out is their own skill.If they were buried, they could only be counted as bad luck.

Every three years, there will be a list of three tripods, nearly [-] Jinshi and fellow Jinshi.

Perhaps for the candidates themselves, passing the Jinshi exam is a big leap in life, and it will not be a problem for them to become prosperous from now on.

But to the emperor, to the imperial court, they are really not that important.

These scholars who passed the exam still need to go through many big waves of gold panning before they can find talents who are useful to the real court.

So it's really not a big problem for the emperor to treat a Jinshi in the imperial examination coldly.

Liu Shi also understood the reason why Liu Shi'an didn't let him take part in this test, he would never participate in cheating.But even if he didn't participate in fraud, as long as he was treated coldly by the emperor, his future would definitely be difficult.

In the future, when you select officials and so on, report your qualifications, which class of Jinshi you are, it is likely because the emperor does not like this class of Jinshi, then you are out of the game.

The official position of the imperial court is limited, and there are many Jinshi and fellow Jinshi waiting for the official.Even if you have a relationship, you may still go to a remote place in a remote place to take a job far away, so as not to stay in the capital and hinder the emperor's eyes.What's more, what about someone like Liu Shi who has no background or connections?

The talented candidates who participated in this session of the examination can only be regarded as unlucky, but Liu Shi'an's good luck was brought by Liu Shi'an.

When Liu Shi's second son was born, Liu Shi'an was promoted and was transferred from the Imperial Academy to the household department by the emperor.Liu Shi'an also asked for a royal order for his mother.

As for his wife, Li Shi, as long as Liu Shi'an doesn't take the initiative to ask for the title, the imperial court will not give her a special order.

Mrs. Li is like a superfluous person in Liu Shi'an's house, but some colleagues sent concubines and girls to Liu Shi'an, but Liu Shi'an didn't accept them either.He didn't seem to have any intention of taking a concubine either.

Although Liu Xiucai is just a scholar from the countryside, he is a very orthodox scholar, and he doesn't like the atmosphere of taking concubines and maidservants very much.Even though they didn't like Li Shi, they acquiesced to Liu Shian not to get close to Li Shi, but they never thought about taking concubines to have children.I would rather adopt stepchildren from the clan in the future to continue the incense.

Liu Shi felt that he understood Liu Shi'an quite well.Liu Shi'an is so talented that it can be said that he occupies the aura of the world. He likes playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, knows how to appreciate beauty, and has a high aesthetic taste.

If Mrs. Li just lacks cultural accomplishment, but she has spiritual wisdom and can be taught, then Liu Shi'an must teach her a lot after marriage.Just like a piece of rough jade, it was finally carved into a beautiful jade, and then the husband and wife sang in harmony, raising their eyebrows together.

Even if there is no spiritual communication, if Mrs. Li is kind-hearted, filial to her elders, and can be a good wife and mother at ease, then Liu Shi'an will do her duty as a husband and give her enough respect and love.

But Li's nature is really hard to describe.She is vain, greedy for wealth and honor, and can only share wealth and honor but not adversity. She only has power and status in her heart without much love.It's hard for you to tell who she has feelings for in this world.Even for her own parents, you can't see that she has any real feelings for them, but it seems that she only regards them as her mother's backer.Even if she has children, she probably regards them as bargaining chips for her family status.With such a person, after getting in touch with her a lot, you can feel that she has no emotional strings, and she doesn't really put anyone in her heart, she just cares about enjoying wealth.

Liu Shi has met many people. He has also seen this kind of people who have no feelings for their parents or children. Their standard of doing things is their interests. As long as their interests are guaranteed, there is nothing that cannot be sacrificed.

If Liu Shi'an's spiritual world is a beautiful garden, then Li's spiritual world is probably a desert.

Facing such a wife, how could Liu Shi'an wrong himself.

However, Liu Shi'an obviously didn't intend to find a confidante for himself.Raising a spoiled concubine, and then spoiling the concubine and destroying his wife, obviously does not conform to Liu Shian's moral standards.

However, for an orthodox Confucian scholar like Liu Shi'an, even if his family life is not satisfactory, he can still find spiritual satisfaction in books, calligraphy, painting and piano music.What's more, now Liu Shi'an is highly valued by the emperor, and he is about to make some achievements in the court, so he can ignore small family matters.

Liu Shi's second son was named Liu Ang.

Liu Shi's grandfather hurriedly asked Liu Shi to send a letter back to the family to record the name of the little great-grandson on the family tree.Their lineage had a second child, just like the iron tree blossoming.
