Chapter 531: Scholars on Profit, Scholars on Scholars
"Wen still has some shallow views about this imperial examination. โ
When Wen Zhizhen spoke, he looked around, saw that everyone was paying attention, and his heart was settled, and then he looked upstairs, but he didn't see Qiu Yan's figure going downstairs, his brows furrowed slightly, but he quickly stretched, and he was saying: "If you talk about the essays and strategies this time, it is difficult to say, but it is also easy to say!"
"Oh?" Hearing the question that disturbed his restlessness, there seemed to be no difficulty in Wen Zhizhen's mouth, and the candidates couldn't help but be curious, and they had the heart to listen to the opinions of this Jiangnan genius.
Facing everyone's attention, Wen Zhizhen walked calmly and came to a chair to sit down.
The innkeeper was also interested, and hurriedly asked Xiao Er to bring a cup of tea and send it over, Wen Zhizhen took the teacup, lifted the lid and blew it, took a sip, it really hung his appetite, but he still didn't see Qiu Yan come down, and couldn't help but shake his head secretly, and then he spoke-
"I waited for the world to receive the emperor's favor, should know where the interests of the country are, in the future as an official, but also to be conscientious, this policy is a spur, reminder, in Wen's view, it is really a timely rain, now the king phase change law, benefit the country and the people, for scholars should follow, that policy should naturally be closely followed here......"
"Huh, there seems to be a hidden meaning in his words?" Cao Hanqi's eyebrows moved slightly.
"What can be the hidden meaning?" Zhou Guan sneered, "It's nothing more than figuring out the examiner's mind and pointing out the relationship between the examination and the law change, he doesn't need to remind him of this, who doesn't know?
On the other side, Wen Zhizhen did not stop talking, and was answering the inquiries of several candidates-
"If you want to benefit the country, you must first know the situation of rain, snow, and abundance in all directions, and control the rise and fall of prices in various places......"
When these words came out, everyone present felt a sense of openness. I only feel that Wen Zhizhen's words are full of deep meaning, and from time to time they are compared with his own strategies, some are excited, and some are low.
Some people even discussed a certain sentence in their words, and they all felt that they had gained a lot.
"He is worthy of being a genius in Jiangnan, and his knowledge far surpasses me!"
"In my opinion, this Wen Zhizhen is afraid that he has the talent of Zaifu, if he can go to the court, it should be a blessing for the society!"
I don't even think about these words. Not to mention writing it on the volume, how did Wen Zhizhen's brain grow?"
"You didn't think about it, I did, but I never realized it could be connected!"
......
The atmosphere changed drastically.
The other side. Looking at Wen Zhizhen, who was talking eloquently in the crowd, Xu Ran smiled. There was a lot of sparkle in his eyes. A look of honor.
But on the side, Pang Qianru's words ruined her good mood.
"Wen Gongzi really lives up to his reputation. Pang Qianru stuck out her tongue and licked her lips as she spoke, looking ready to enjoy the food.
Hearing this, Xu Ran immediately remembered. These days, Pang Qianru's plot can't help but glare angrily.
It's just that as soon as her gaze passed, another voice soundedโ
"Wen Zhizhen is rumored to be a genius in Jiangnan, and it is really not a waste of fame. โ
"Sister Ji?" Xu Ran was startled. suddenly followed the sound and looked, but what I saw was Ji Zheng's face that could be broken.
Noticing Xu Ran's gaze, Ji Zheng smiled slightly: "Sister, don't get me wrong, I don't have any other ideas, I just think that this Wen Gongzi is really smart and good at figuring out people's hearts." โ
"Oh?" Pang Qianru suddenly became interested, narrowed her eyes, and leaned closer, "Looking at your appearance, could it be that you see something again?"
Ji Zheng glanced at her, did not hide it, nodded and said: "The prince changed the law, intended to fill the treasury, revitalize the military prestige, and prosper Darui, many new laws are not born without roots, I have heard people say that many new laws are perfected on the basis of predecessors, such as losing a law, the root is the previous dynasty Liu Yan, Wen Gongzi's views, and Liu Gong coincide. โ
As soon as he said this, several people around him quickly understood, and the so-called "I have heard of" should be a pretext, and it is very likely that this woman herself saw it, and as for the coincidence, several people also tacitly understood it.
In this way, Wen Zhizhen can be regarded as well-informed, and if his strategy is also based on this, he will definitely be able to enter the eyes of the king, and his ranking is not low. Luo Jiayun said in a low voice.
Pang Qianru looked Ji Zheng up and down, and said with a smile: "Really smart, with seven tricks in his heart." This seems to be a compliment, but it is actually an insatiation that Ji Zheng's scheming is too heavy.
It's just that Xu Ran didn't seem a little happy.
At the same time, in the corner of the tavern, two middle-aged scribes were talking about wine, and then put down their wine glasses, each took a sip of food, and then one of them said: "Brother Feng, do you know the origin of this woman? โ
The man known as Brother Feng shook his head and said, "Brother Yu doesn't know what to do, how can I know?"
The two scribes, one surnamed Feng and the other surnamed Yu.
The scribe surnamed Yu smiled and said: "This is also true, but since I have seen it, after I go back, I will send someone to investigate, and I will know the Tao, but this Wen Zhizhen, it seems that he has some talents, and he can grasp the theme and key of the examination, and vote for the prince, but I don't know if he is a soldier on paper, in addition, I haven't seen that Qiu Yan, and it is not easy to compare." โ
The scribe surnamed Feng nodded and said: "This is true, the person who dyed the examination papers, the most likely people, have to investigate one by one, today you and I came to test Qiu Yan, but the result was that no one saw it, but met Wen Zhizhen, it was not worth the trip." โ
"By the way," the scribe surnamed Yu took a sip of wine, "You are in the Xiangguo Mansion now, are you still used to it?"
"Is it unreasonable to be a staff member of the prince and display his ambitions?" the scribe surnamed Feng smiled and took a bite of food, "It's just that the new party is gradually gaining a firm foothold, and there is also a momentum of internal struggle for power and profit." โ
"Oh, how can you see that?" the scribe surnamed Yu showed a little surprise, "I remember, after you submitted the theory of the change of the city, you also said that the new party is united, how long has it been?"
"It is precisely because of this law that the New Party gradually controlled the finances of the DPRK and China, and it involved interests, that there was a change," the scribe surnamed Feng sighed, "Half a month ago, on the Shangyuan Festival, I attended the banquet of the New Party with Xiangguo, and I saw Pan Xiang for the first time during the banquet. I knew that this person was a person who was unwilling to be lonely, and sure enough, after that, he had the intention to cultivate strength, which caused the rest of the New Party to resist and imitate. As he spoke, a look of regret appeared on his face.
The scribe surnamed Yu shook his head and said: "This is also the normal situation of people, people always have to live in reality, who can be in the world, who can not be afraid of all kinds of constraints and rules, and only seek the path of humanity? Who can be a humane without scruples? Even the prime minister of the king has to be subject to all kinds of constraints and selfishness. โ
said. He raised his hand and pointed to Wen Zhizhen, who was talking eloquently, and continued: "Just like this person, it seems that he is very talented, and the books on the volume are for the country and the people, but he is just trying to figure out the examiner's thoughts. However, if he can put what is written. Whatever the purpose. It's good after all, I'm afraid, he only uses this little bit of thought as a stepping stone. โ
If no one talks about the general trend of the government and the ruling officials, and even criticizes Wen Zhizhen not far away, if they are heard, they will not be able to make waves. also wanted to provoke the reaction of the scholars in the house, but the strange thing was that the scholars around not only did not react at all, but they didn't even see the two of them.
That's it. The inn lobby became a gathering place.
Wen Zhizhen talked with everyone and tried it, which lasted until the evening, and seeing that Qiu Yan had no intention of showing up, he couldn't help but shake his head and got up to say goodbye.
Many candidates and scholars just woke up from a dream, and said goodbye to Wen Zhizhen diligently, and some people thought of Qiu Yan, and they inevitably talked about it slightly, but Qiu Yan was on it, of course, no one would say anything ugly, but Hu Qi and Dai Guo still couldn't help but look bad.
Seeing this, the two middle-aged scribes also got up and left the table.
"It seems that I can't wait for people today, I don't know why Qiu Yan is studying behind closed doors, is it because it takes too much effort to try? What kind of article, it takes so much effort? Unless it ......" A little gleam flashed in the eyes of the scribe surnamed Yu, and he glanced at another person.
"This is not good, after all, ......" The scribe surnamed Feng obviously had something to say, but halfway through the words, he stopped suddenly, and then was stunned at the same time as the scribe surnamed Yu, and then looked around, and after a few breaths, he calmed down, and they all frowned.
"What just happened, how do you feel like someone is watching?"
The two were still suspicious, but they searched to no avail, so they had to give up, pay and leave.
On the other side, Pang Qianru and the others waited for a long time, and they didn't see Qiu Yan's figure, seeing Wen Zhizhen say goodbye, Ji Zheng also left words, and was about to leave, Pang Qianru's black and white eyes rolled, and said to Hu Qi: "Your son-in-law doesn't know when he will be able to raise his mind, in my opinion, we don't have to come to visit, in two days I will set up a banquet, meet friends with literature, and invite talents in the city, your son-in-law will not show up, right?"
"Tell my son-in-law. Hu Qi hurriedly said.
It didn't take long for Luo Jiayun, Zhou Guan and others to leave.
"It's all gone. Seeing everyone away, Dai Guochang took a breath and went upstairs with Hu Qi, but after walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped.
In front of them, the door of Qiu Yan's room had been opened, and Qiu Yan, who had a pale face, walked out of it.
"Childe, what's wrong with you?" With the cultivation of Hu Qi and Dai Guo, he noticed Qiu Yan's breath for the first time, as if he had just been seriously ill, extremely weak, and did not have the appearance of a third realm monk at all.
However, in this weak aura, there was still an indescribable and inexplicable change, and Qiu Yan's eyes were even more shining, but both of them were shocked by Qiu Yan's state and did not notice this change.
Qiu Yan didn't answer the two people's questions, but asked, "How many silver taels do we have?"
"Huh?" Hu Qi was stunned for a moment, and reported a number.
Qiu Yan frowned slightly, and handed over a list: "Okay, let's go to the hospital to grab medicine according to this list first." (To be continued......)
