After finishing the college exam, knowing that there would be no exams in the future, Xue Pan let out his pent-up anger, and fell asleep at home for a whole day before recovering.This is because he exercises his body every day and practices the sword skills taught by Liu Xianglian, so he has a good physique.

As for Lu An, whose physique was a bit weak, he immediately developed a fever. Although the fever subsided that night, he still took medicine for three days before recovering.

The results of the boy's examination came out, and both of them were admitted as scholars.After their excitement passed, Mr. Lu asked Xue Pan and Lu An to silently write down the content of their answers to these few exams.

After reading it, Mr. Lu commented that in addition to poetry and prose, Xue Pan's answers to other test papers, including scriptures, essays, and policy theory, were still a little better than Lu An's.But Xue Pan's ranking is lower than Lu An's every time, and it should be due to his poems and prose.

Xue Pan's poems are really beyond words.Although poetry and prose are not the focus of candidates' admission, some examiners, who like gorgeous literary talents, will prefer candidates with good poetry and prose.

Xue Pan's level of poetry and prose lowered Xue Pan's ranking.Fortunately, it was still on the list in the end and did not fail.

Mr. Lu said: "You need to practice more on your poems and fu. From now on, you will write a poem every day and ask Xue Hong to correct it for you."

Mr. Lu looked at Xue Pan's poems and Fu, and felt sad. He didn't know what to do when the poems and Fu were written like this.However, Xue Pan's policy questions and stereotyped essays are not bad, and they are all balanced.These things are good if they are stable and have something to say.

But this is something for the future. When he is happy, Mr. Lu will naturally not say it to spoil the fun.

After Xue Pan and Lu An told the boy's test questions, Baochai also did all the questions in private for Mr. Lu to correct.

After reading it, Mr. Lu looked at Baochai regretfully, and sighed: "Xue Hong's answers to the questions are better than both of you. If he goes to take the exam, he will definitely be on the list. The boy took several exams this time. , the case files at the top of the case have been circulated. Xue Hong's examination papers are no worse than those at the top of the case. The rhetoric is gorgeous, especially the poems and prose, which are full of aura. It can be seen from Xue Pan's ranking that the chief examiner likes candidates with aura , Xue Hong has the strength to fight for the top case."

After Baochai heard this, she was happy that Mr. Lu gave her such a high opinion, but also a little sad. No matter how well she did, she would not be able to enter the examination room no matter what.

My brother has already said that the imperial examinations are very strict. They will be searched, and sometimes they will even be stripped for inspection.

After returning to the inner courtyard, Xue Pan said to Baochai: "Sister, you also know now that women can do what men can do. Men are strong and women are weak, but it is the shackles given to women by rules and the world. But you You can’t put shackles on yourself, go see the world more, besides the imperial examination, you can live like a man. Moreover, the daughter’s family is tougher than the man.”

In the last life, Xue Pan watched Baochai helplessly in the backyard, trapped in the etiquette and dogma, and trapped himself to death.In this life, he hoped that she would put all these aside and live a good life for herself.

Baochai nodded, she likes her life now, and she will not give up.

Xue Pan and Lu An were admitted as scholars, and Xue's family specially held a teacher appreciation banquet for Mr. Lu, thanking Mr. Lu for training Xue Pan.

After the thank-you banquet, Mr. Lu had to resign.

Mr. Lu is a scholar. After taking the exam all his life, he was a scholar, but he failed to pass the exam.

Mr. Lu's son also spent his whole life in the exam, and finally passed the Juren exam. The family moved to Kyoto to prepare for the Jinshi exam.As a result, he took too many exams and broke his body in the exam shed. When he arrived in Kyoto, he failed to pass the Jinshi exam and died.His wife also remarried, leaving Mr. Lu with only one grandson, Lu An.

Mr. Lu can only open a school in Kyoto to teach, raise Lu An, and teach Lu An to read.

Later when Lu An grew up, Mr. Lu wanted to go back to Jinling, but he couldn't afford the travel expenses.I happened to meet Xue Pan looking for Mr. Xue, so I came to Xue's house.

Now that Xue Pan and Lu An are both scholars, Mr. Lu thinks he has no ability to teach, so he has to resign.

Xue Pan didn't want Mr. Lu to leave.

They have been together for nearly two years and already have feelings for each other.And Xue Pan thinks that Mr. Lu's teaching is really good.

Finally, Xue Pan thought of a compromise.

Their Xue family is in Jinling, with a total of eight houses, including uncles and cousins, they are actually a rich family.However, there are really not many people who take the imperial examination. Most of them are merchants, and they all live on the merits of their ancestors.

This is not acceptable. The younger generations are worthless and cannot support the family business.

A single tree cannot make a forest, Xue Pan hopes that the Xue family will get better and better.

Xue's family is a businessman, and they don't even have ethnology. If the family values ​​it, they will ask a private school to teach their children to read.If the family doesn't pay attention to it, they will directly become a playboy.

Although Xue Pan is not the patriarch of the Xue family now, he is the direct branch of the Xue family and the head of the family. He thinks that the Xue family should pay attention to the things learned by the Xue family.

Xue Pan directly changed the two courtyards next to the Xue family ancestral hall, and changed it to Xue Family School.

The one in the back is for Mr. Lu and Lu An to live in, and the one in the front is used as a school.

All the children of the Xue family can enter the school for free.

Xue Pan was also afraid that the Xue family would learn to become like the Jia family, so he gave rewards and punishments.Exams are held every month, the top three are rewarded, and the last three are punished.

If you are admitted as a scholar, each person will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver, and if you are admitted to Juren, you will be rewarded with 500 taels of silver.Let these students have no worries.

Xue Pan opened the ancestral hall and explained the arrangement of the ethnology one by one, asking the Xue family to send their children to the school, and let Mr. Lu be the teacher of the school.

"Sir, if you can't manage it, if you have close friends, you can also invite two or three to manage the ethnology with you."

After Mr. Lu left, Lu An still lived in Xue Pan's house, in the wing room of Xue Pan's courtyard, and studied with Xue Pan.

The provincial examination is held every three years.The last time was last year, the year they just returned to Jinling.The next time is still two years later, Xue Pan breathed a sigh of relief.

His current knowledge accumulation is still very shallow. If he takes the exam now, the chance of passing the exam is very slim.Two years later, I might be able to fight myself.

Calculating the time, two years later, Baochai will be 15 years old, just as old as Ji, and when the time comes to talk about marriage to Baochai, he can still catch up.After making an engagement, stay at home for another two or three years, and then get married when you are seventeen or eight years old.If he could pass the Jinshi exam at that time, Baochai would naturally be valued by his husband's family.

And two years later, Miss Lin was 13 years old.Generally, when a girl is about 13 years old, she gets engaged, and she goes to the Lin family to propose a marriage at that time. She has the reputation of raising others, and with Master Lin's appreciation for her, if you think about it, if there is such a chance, Master Lin will agree to marry you.

Besides, he still has a trump card.

The Lin family has been passed down for several generations, and in Miss Lin's generation, there is only Miss Lin.

Xue Pan can promise Mr. Lin that he will never be seductive in this life, will not take concubines, and will not have a roommate.If Miss Lin is married to him, when Miss Lin gives birth to her second child, she can be named Lin with Miss Lin and inherit the incense of the Lin family.

Thinking about such a condition, Mr. Lin would agree.

All of this is based on his admission to Juren.

A good life requires hard work.

However, Xue Pan was still very worried about Lin Ruhai's body.

In the previous life, Lin Ruhai died before Jia Yuanchun was made a concubine Xiande, exactly two years later, on the third day of September.The next township examination will be held in August, and the results will usually be released before September [-]th.

However, in the previous life, Lin Ruhai believed that Miss Lin would be trusted all her life, and she no longer had any worries in her heart. In this life, with Miss Lin by her side, Lin Ruhai was worried about Miss Lin's future, so she should be able to live for a while longer.

Xue Pan also wanted to go to the Lin family to propose a marriage right now, but he knew that he was not good enough for Miss Lin.

In Baochai's words, he was the one who was counseled.

He was indeed extra cautious when dealing with Miss Lin.He didn't want to fail to propose a marriage once, and there would be no room for relaxation.

Xue Pan arranged for someone in Yangzhou to notify him immediately if something happened to Lin Ruhai's body, so that he would have time to deal with it.

Xue Pan's pharmacy in Kyoto has been buying precious medicinal materials and sending them to Xue's house every two months.Every time, Xue Pan would send ginseng, velvet antler, Polygonum multiflorum and other tonics sent from the pharmacy in Kyoto to Fu'er to deliver to Lin's family. He only hoped that Lin Ruhai could live for a long time.

Although Lin Ruhai declined several times, Xue Pan still gave it away once every two months.After a long time, Lin Ruhai acquiesced.

This time, right after Tongzi tried to commit the crime, Xue Pan specially wrote a letter to Lin Ruhai, telling Lin Ruhai about his achievements, and thanking Lin Ruhai for donating the book.

The most urgent thing now is to find a new gentleman for Xue Pan, who will be a scholar or Jinshi.

Xu Sheng searched outside for a long time, just like in Kyoto, he couldn't find any Juren or Scholars who were willing to come.These people are more willing to find an official position, even if Xue Pan pays a high price, they are not willing to become a gentleman.

Xue Pan originally thought that becoming a scholar would be different from before.Today's reality proves that he is still at the bottom of the scholar class.

If there is really no other way, Xue Pan and Lu An can only go to the government school in Jinling to attend classes.The teachers of the government schools are all Jinshi and Juren, so there is no shortage of teachers.But the classes there are all taught together by one class, there are Class A, Class B and Class C.If Xue Pan went, he would be in class C at the beginning, and then he would be promoted to class A little by little.

Class C's class progress is too slow, and the students in Class A have already learned the knowledge they need to learn, and they are about to start sprinting for the provincial examination.

Xue Pan, on the other hand, did not learn a lot of new knowledge. Although the provincial examination is mainly based on the Four Books and Five Classics, sometimes other Confucian classics are also tested, which is deeper and wider than the boy's examination.These two classes are not suitable for him. He needs a teacher who can teach students according to his aptitude according to his progress and save time.

Xue Pan studied by himself from the books Lin Ruhai gave him, but no one explained it. He had a hard time understanding many places, and the speed was too slow.

Xue Pan is in a dilemma.
