Cannon Fodder is King [Quick Transmigration]

Meng Zezhi came out of the tribute courtyard with his front foot, and the case of ginseng soup with his back foot came to light.

"I didn't expect Aunt Xu to be so courageous..." Shiqin said while helping Meng Zezhi to wash up, "That maid is a newcomer who just entered the mansion two months ago. I heard that it was because her father was ill. There was no money to treat his illness, and her family was desperate, so they sold her into the mansion for three taels of silver."

Shiqin doesn't sympathize with her at all. Being poor is never a reason for doing evil alone: ​​"A few days ago, her father's illness worsened again, and she couldn't sleep all night in such a hurry. If she doesn't sleep at night, how can she be energetic during the day?" Work, just for this, she was often scolded by her aunt and stewards that day."

"Aunt Xu didn't know where she found out about this matter, so she sent her younger brother to find a gangster on the street and sent a letter to the maid, with a 20 tael silver note in the letter, promising to come back after everything is done. Give her 100 taels of silver, and that maid will be moved."

"On the day of your exam, my lord, her cronies covered their faces and ambushed halfway. When Shiqi passed by, they sneaked up on her and knocked her out from behind while she was not paying attention, and then asked the maid to change into Shiqi's clothes." , mixed in with a cup of ginseng soup mixed with arsenic. Fortunately, God opened my eyes, that maid messed up the matter because she was too nervous!"

"Aunt Xu thought that her plan was watertight, even if the matter was revealed, she would not be able to find out about it. As a result, her younger brother drank too much wine yesterday, and couldn't help complaining about it to his group of cronies. The servant girl came and said that if the maid was not useless, his eldest nephew would be the son of the Duke of the future, and so on. His group of cronies and dog friends were all greedy for money, so they sold him without even thinking about it. exposed..."

Meng Ze knew but smiled and said nothing.

How can there be such a coincidence in this world, I'm afraid it was that person who did it.

"The truth came out. No, Madam sold Aunt Xu early this morning. The fifth young master... Zhao Yikang and Zhao Yide were also sent to the Zhuangzi by the Duke. I can't come back. And the second young lady, I'm afraid she will be returned by her husband's family in a few days, and I feel relieved when I think about it."

Meng Zezhi didn't feel much about this, but don't want him to pity Zhao Yikang's family for this.

In late February, the list will be released.

Zhao Lingwu couldn't wait to receive the good news from the newspaper, and opened it to take a look: "Good news, the young master of your family, Zhao Mingyi'an, is the No. 1 Huiyuan of the Bingshu Division Examination High School."

"Okay, okay," Zhao Lingwu blushed, excited, and then waved his hand: "Rewards, there are rewards, many rewards!"

Xiao Shi also had a happy expression on his face, and said at the right time: "Housekeeper Qiao, tell me, every servant in the whole family will be rewarded with one month's monthly money today, and those in the Ninth Young Master's yard will be rewarded for three months."

"Yes." Qiao Renyuan replied immediately.

Hearing these words, the smiles on the faces of the maids and servants instantly became more sincere, and they shouted in unison: "Master Xie, Mrs. Xie, congratulations to Master Nine, congratulations to Master Nine..."

That night, the Duke's Mansion held a grand banquet.

There is another compliment and flattery in between, so there is no need to mention it.

It's already the second watch after eating and drinking enough to see off the guests.

After drinking hangover tea under the service of the servant, and soaking in a hot bath, I got out of the wooden barrel, and most of the chaos in my mind dissipated.

Suddenly hearing a commotion outside the door, Meng Zezhi asked casually, "What's wrong?"

After a while, Shiqin came in: "If you go back to the son, the master sent someone to bring over two big boxes and 200 taels of gold."

"En." Meng Zezhi responded, expressing that he knew it, and then he seemed to remember something, and said, "By the way, I remember that it will be my mother's birthday in two months. How about it, you take this The 200 taels of gold and the gold ingots I have saved over the years were sent to the Jinfu Pavilion in the east of the city, and they were melted to cast a golden statue of Maitreya Buddha, making it finer."

Since five years ago, when Xiao sensed his future situation in the Huguo Temple, he has been completely fascinated by Lifo.

"As for those two boxes, let's register them together with the gifts received today and store them in the warehouse."

"Yes."

As he spoke, Meng Zezhi raised his brows slightly as if he had sensed something, and said, "Okay, you all go down."

"Yes."

"Also, there is no need to keep anyone on duty tonight." Meng Zezhi knew that there was a small room next to the bedroom, and maids were usually on duty in turn.

Hearing this, Shiqin was taken aback for a moment, and then reacted, vaguely as if he had guessed something, but he didn't say anything, and only responded, "Yes."

After all the maids and servants retreated, Meng Zezhi opened the window and said, "Since you're here, come in, it's very cold outside."

For a while, there was no movement outside the house.

Meng Zezhi let him be shy, just found the "Treasure of Appreciating Flowers" from the bottom of the box, and flipped through it leisurely.

About half an hour later, Xu Shi was fully prepared, only heard a slight sound of footsteps, and Meng Ze knew that there was an extra figure under his feet.

"Stop running?" Meng Zezhi looked up at the person coming, half-closed his eyes, looking lazy.

Lu Li didn't say anything, his eyes touched the pages of the book in Meng Zezhi's hand, and he felt his throat go dry.

Then he was pulled into his arms.

Lu Li subconsciously tensed his spine.

"Relax." Meng Zezhi dropped the book in his hand, pressed him on his lap forcibly, moved his head to his neck, took a deep breath, and smiled.

With a hoarse voice, he said, "Did you come here after taking a shower?"

Lu Li's breathing was short, and he felt like a piece of meat that was offered to Meng Zezhi's mouth.

"Then I'm welcome."

As he spoke, he bit Lu Li's Adam's apple, wrapped his arms around his waist with one hand, untied his belt with the other, and groped inside.

While dazhuang, Meng Zezhi bit his ear and asked, "Do you know that Zen Master Huihe gave me orders?"

"Yeah." Lu Li panted heavily, a tear fell from the corner of his eye.

If it wasn't for this, he would never appear in front of Meng Zezhi again.

He was really crazy, he had a deep-rooted affection for a young man who had only been together for less than a month, and even abandoned his principles, secretly delighted that the other party would not be able to marry a wife in a short time.

He thought, four years was enough for Meng Zezhi to get tired of him.

Meng Zezhi asked again: "Do you think we are having an affair?"

Lu Li, who was full of inner drama, was slightly sour in his heart. He put his arms around the waist of the person on his body, feeling his youth.

But all the thoughts in my mind seem to be much bigger than last time.

The cloud sells and the rain arrives.

Meng Zezhi put his arms around Lu Li, and when he was drowsy, he asked, "When will you come over next time?"

Between the words, it's like an outer room waiting for the adulterer to come.

Lu Li managed to pull himself together, and after thinking about it, he hummed, "It will be the sixth day of the month next month."

"it is good."

On the first day of April, the imperial examination begins.

Different from the general examination, the palace examination is held in the Palace of Preservation and Harmony in the Forbidden City.During the reign of Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty, Zhang Yuan, a tribute who was deposed in the palace examination, defected to Xixia in a rage, and later became an official to the Taishi, causing huge damage to the Northern Song Dynasty.So so far, the palace examination does not depose the Luo Gongshi, but just re-determines the ranks.

After inspection, roll call, dissembling papers, praise and other etiquette, the test questions were finally sent to the candidates.

Compared to other extremely nervous tribute scholars, Meng Zezhi seemed much more relaxed, because everyone knew that the number one scholar in this subject was already in his pocket.

"The provinces of today's southern lands, the lands of the ancient barbarians... There are those who are erudite and capable, and they are the sons of the state to offer wine; ...And in the northern provinces, it is important to look at each other first after being a personage, why are there few officials from the north who have a good name..."

The content of the test question is translated as follows: the southern provinces, which used to belong to the barbarians, now produce so many outstanding figures, while the northern provinces, which were originally the birthplace of the Central Plains culture, why are there not many famous officials now? ?

After thinking about it for a while, Meng Zezhi understood the purpose of Emperor Guangde's question.

Why northern officials are inferior to southern officials? In the final analysis, the number of northern officials in the court is far lower than that of southern officials.

As mentioned earlier, the style of writing in the south was at its peak, and it took only 25 years to establish the country in the Dayang Dynasty. Thirteen scientific examinations were held, and a total of more than [-] Jinshi were admitted, of which three-quarters were from the south.

Besides, there are more than 80.00 applicants for the current subject examination, and 15.00 tribute scholars are approved and admitted. Among them, as many as [-]% are from the south, and only [-]% are from the north.

If things go on like this, the court will be occupied by the southerners. Once the northern scholars become passive officials and shake their confidence in the new dynasty, the consequences will be disastrous.

As for how to solve this problem-

It's simple, just follow the example of the Ming Dynasty in the present world and make a north-south list.

Thinking of this, Meng Zezhi began to draft.

Let me first talk about the reasons for this phenomenon. It is nothing more than three trips to the south in clothes and clothes, and the Mongolian Yuan slaughtered the Han people in the north.

Let me state my point of view again. Northern scholars are not good at scientific research, but it does not mean that they are not good at being officials.

Finally, a solution is put forward, and the test is divided into rankings. On the basis of the six in the south and the four in the north, the provinces and regions are divided in detail.

Only in this way, it is bound to greatly damage the interests of southern scholars.

Meng Zezhi had no psychological pressure on this, after all, he was a scholar from the south and from the north.

Because of this, when the vast majority of candidates were frowning, Meng Zezhi had already drafted a draft.

Seeing this scene, Emperor Guangde stood up from the dragon chair, walked down the steps, and stood beside Meng Zezhi until he finished writing.

Half a month later, the palace examination results were released, and Meng Zezhi was selected as the No. [-] Scholar.

At the Ceremony of Chuanlu, Emperor Guangde summoned the top three of Yijia, and when he asked about Meng Zezhi, he saw that he was dressed in a tribute uniform and a crown with three branches and nine leaves. Even, couldn't help asking: "Is Aiqing married?"

His favorite sixth princess is 16 years old this year, and it is just right to match Meng Zezhi.

"This..." Meng Zezhi looked hesitant.

The great eunuch Tao An immediately attached himself to Emperor Guangde's ear, and whispered, "If you go back to Long Live, Zen Master Huihe gave Zhuangyuanlang a few days ago..."

"That's it..." Emperor Guangde looked disappointed, because he was seriously ill in bed during that time, so he really didn't know about it.

When Meng Zezhi turns 22 years old, the six princesses will be [-], which is really inappropriate.

But this did not prevent Emperor Guangde from loving Meng Zezhi. He waved his hand: "I am bestowed with six yuan and the mansion, and I am awarded a bachelor's degree from the fifth-rank Hanlin Academy, with a reward of 60 taels of silver and 600 taels of silver. Palace silk Six."
