[Red House] Ban'er's Road to Imperial Examination

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of rest and bathing. Wang Yue ordered people to prepare the objects for apprenticeship early, and selected two paintings and calligraphy by famous artists from the previous dynasty that he had scoured out before, and after asking Mr. Gao's opinion, he chose his usual After preparing some homework carefully, he went out with Mr. Gao.

The two of them were sitting in a carriage, and they didn't walk fast in a place like the capital where people come and go, so Wang Yue was free to talk to Mr. Gao while paying attention to the scene outside the carriage.

Not long after, the carriage turned a corner and walked to another street that was a little deserted.

After all, Wang Yue has been studying in the Imperial College for six years. Although most of the time he can't get out of the college, but when he rests, he will invite a few classmates and friends to go shopping in the city. This old Kyoto is not so strange anymore.

After a little identification, he found that this street is quite famous, just like Rongning Street has Rongguo Mansion and Ningguo Mansion, so it got this name, it is called Princess Street.

The reason why it has such a name is because there was a very famous princess in the previous dynasty, and her residence was on this street. This street was famous because of her, so it was called Princess Street.

Up to now, several princesses also live on this street, which makes the name of this street called Princess Street even more worthy of its name.

Because the upbringing of the princesses in this dynasty is somewhat different, the royal family does not require the princesses to take care of their husbands and children at home, but encourages them to participate in the royal family's charity. Like Qianming, a good princess is like an invisible person.

Because these princesses often show their faces outside, they seldom have the restraint of ordinary women.

However, they are not as unscrupulous as the princesses of some dynasties, meddling in government affairs at will, or being careless about male sex, so although some old antiques are a little dissatisfied with these princesses, most people still agree with these princesses do things.

But also because of this, the princess's mansion is a little bit yin and yang.

After all, the princess has a reputation for being virtuous, and although this court does not require concubines to step into official careers like the previous court, there are some restrictions. Up to now, concubines have only held idle positions. The difference, it is a matter of course that the son-in-law is suppressed by the princess!

But this is only the case in most cases, but it does not mean that everyone is like this.

Among these son-in-laws, the most famous one is Lin Qing, the son-in-law of Princess Shuxian.

Princess Shuxian is the third daughter of the Supreme Emperor and the elder sister of the current Emperor. Although her mother is not the favorite concubine of the Supreme Emperor, and her status is not high, she has a quiet and elegant personality, and she has always been honored in the Royal Charity Association. The kind image shows people, very well received.

Also because of this, she is quite valued by the Supreme Emperor and the current emperor, and is highly respected by the world among the eldest princesses.At the beginning, many noble children wanted to marry this well-known and kind princess, but they didn't expect that Princess Shuxian herself had an idea. Instead, he chose Tanhualang, who was born in the imperial examination and ranked No.3 on the Jinshi list of that session.

Of course, the two of them met but it was not love at first sight at the Qionglin Banquet as in the folklore.

As far as Wang Yue knew from the gossip he heard from Tu Hui, the two of them met for the first time in the fifth year after Tan Hualang entered the officialdom.

Speaking of which, Lin Qing, the flower explorer, has some relationship with Lin's younger sister, Lin Daiyu. They both come from Suzhou Lin's family, but Lin's younger sister's line is a direct branch, but because they have been separated for many years, they have gradually become estranged, and they don't have much contact with this branch.

And Lin Qing came from a branch of the main branch of the Lin family. After all, sister Lin would still call this son-in-law an uncle!

It's just that the relationship between the two families is too far away, and Lin Ruhai is an official in the south of the Yangtze River, and has not been in touch for a long time. Maybe sister Lin doesn't even know that she has such a relative in the capital.

And although this Mr. Lin Qinglin was born in a branch, his family background can only be said to be ordinary, not as good as the head branch of the Lin family, but because of his outstanding talent, he is highly valued by the Lin family.The Lin family trained him in many ways, and invested a lot of manpower and material resources, and he lived up to the expectations of his clan. The road to the imperial examination went smoothly, and finally he won the title of Tanhualang.

At the beginning, because Lin Ruhai was originally a Tanhualang, and Lin Qing, a descendant from the Lin family, was also a Tanhualang. There were two Tanhualangs in one family, and there was a lot of trouble at the beginning, and the Lin family became famous because of it. Reputation is outstanding.

After all, this son-in-law was born in a scholarly family, and he has a magnanimity in his bones that is incomparable to others. In addition, the smell of books in his belly is self-sufficient, and he has a good appearance. But he was greatly sought after by women in the capital!

And because his mother passed away when he was young, he needed to keep filial piety, and he was busy with the imperial examination after he was filial piety, so he was already in his 20s at that time and had not yet married.

Although he was a little old, but this did not stop those matchmakers from coming to the door diligently.

However, this son-in-law is also unlucky, his father passed away within half a year after entering the officialdom, so he can only take off his official uniform and go home to observe his filial piety.During the filial piety period, the wedding date naturally need not be mentioned again, and those matchmakers who were about to break through his threshold naturally stopped coming to the door. After all, once the three-year filial piety period passed, how could the court, which had already added new people, remember him, who had already been married? What about the outdated Tanhualang?

And just as everyone expected, after the three-year validity period, although he returned to the officialdom, he was only a minor editor in the Imperial Academy, and those who were the same age as him had already gone their separate ways.

After more than a year, when everyone had long forgotten him, news suddenly came from the palace, saying that the Holy Majesty bestowed a marriage on him to marry Princess Shuxian, and then he came back into the eyes of everyone.

No one thought it was bad, after all, the two were very well matched, one was born in the royal family and was quite a wise princess, and the other was a talented and beautiful scholar who only took part-time jobs.

At that time, people still regarded this son-in-law as Princess Shuxian's vassal. Not many people knew the name Lin Qing, but everyone knew about Princess Shuxian's son-in-law.

After that, for more than three years, he remained silent in the princess mansion, rarely going out, so that the excitement brought about by the princess's favor gradually faded away with him, and when people gradually forgot about him again, he gave a People a big surprise.

After Emperor Tianzheng ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, in order to popularize education, he introduced the Pinyin method. After that, Emperor Tianzheng proposed that the Imperial Academy should come forward and organize the world's famous Confucian scholars to compile a dictionary.

This is a great event and a great event for scholars, so it is naturally praised by everyone.It was only later that due to various reasons, most of the dictionary had been organized, but it was shelved and left in the Royal Academy to fall into ashes.

And it was this son-in-law who re-discovered this dictionary. With his own strength, he spent three years reading the books in the royal secret collection and all kinds of lonely copies in the Hanlin Academy, and read it in the name of the princess. Many ministers in the court borrowed books from their hands, made up the rest, and dedicated them to Emperor Tianxi.

As soon as this news came out, it really shocked the government and the public, and the scholars all over the world were shocked by it!

The fame followed, and people no longer regarded him as a vassal of the princess, but truly realized that there is a scholar named Lin Qing in this world.

However, there are praises and criticisms for his actions. After all, it took most of the scholars in the Imperial Academy and many famous Confucian scholars for many years to compile most of this dictionary. What about a young man, how could he have the ability to continue the second half of this dictionary?

There were many people who had this idea at the beginning, and it should be said that most people had this idea, but after reading this dictionary, people found that the second half was not as bad as they thought.

Although it is definitely not as good as the first half, but it is not far behind. People are looking at him for his talent. This son-in-law has also escaped from the shadow of the princess, and has become a well-known scholar in the Qi Dynasty. .

And ten years later, the son-in-law was over 40 years old, that is, when Wang Yue was six years old, the son-in-law published another book.

This son-in-law was originally fond of calligraphy and painting, and he took advantage of the convenience of his son-in-law to go in and out of the treasury of the imperial secret collection of calligraphy and painting many times. book.

Although his copy is not as good as the original, it still has a full seven-point charm, which makes it a masterpiece of the last sentence.

As soon as this book was released, it attracted many lovers of calligraphy and painting. After all, the secret collections in the palace are never shown to others. Most scholars who love calligraphy and painting may not see these famous paintings in their entire lives. Let's peek into the elegant demeanor of these famous paintings in the copy of the son-in-law!

And the copy of the son-in-law's painting is not bad, it is not as good as the original, but it also has the six or seven successes of the original, which is enough for those who have no chance of the original painting!

And as soon as this book comes out, the label of the master of calligraphy and painting will be added to the label of the son-in-law, a famous scholar, and a great scholar.

If it comes to studying and apprenticeship on this street, then Wang Yue can think of this son-in-law.

Was it this gentleman that Mr. Gao wanted to introduce to him?

The author has something to say: Thank you for your comfort, I'm fine now!That's what I'm good at, I'm quick to get angry, and I'm quick to get well!Forget about your worries today!But I still want to say that we don’t know what’s wrong here. In the past month, accidents happened one after another. First, there was an old man who said that his son committed a crime and went to jail. He, his wife and a grandson were left at home. The old man seemed to be sick. Time was running out, and then he killed his wife and grandson, and committed suicide himself!It's really shocking, but some people said that the little grandson was rescued, I hope he can grow up healthy and healthy!Then two days ago, two little girls in the neighborhood next door made an appointment to jump off the building together. They were only eleven or twelve years old and had just entered junior high school. What did they think? !Then there was another taxi driver who went to the bathroom, but was crushed to death by a construction site next to him! !I really don't know what to say! !
