Chapter 162: Conspiracy
Don't blame the shopkeeper's inner entanglement and discomfort, in this superstitious era, people pay attention to a color head, this shop is even more so, once every three years of the imperial examination, is a good time for them to do big business, they will be very intimate in accordance with their own or the candidate's ideology, invite monks or Taoist priests to chant the scriptures, although the scholars are known to be silent strange and confused, but no one will refuse such a good thing, Xiao Δ said.
This is not a few, he is a native of the imperial capital, he has really received a lot of high school candidates in the future, these people will be prosperous in the future, although it is impossible to have any friendship with him as a shop owner, but there is always a little bit of incense, when the time comes to hang out the brand, a certain year, a certain department, how many scholars in my store are lifted, it is generally a very good marketing method.
This is the same as what you see in the lottery shop,How many jackpots have been won in this store,It's so capricious.,It's this kind of marketing.。
No one wants to be rumored to be so bad luck in this shop for many years, no one has ever passed the exam, or died, then no one can live again, and the reputation will be ruined.
He was entangled and anxious in his heart, and secretly thought, fortunately, he will move to the new city in a few months, and when the time comes, find a way to cover it up, I thought that the surname An, who was disqualified from the back transport of goods, can give birth to An, but I didn't expect that An Zaixu's back transport goods left, and there was such an unlucky guy in the back, not to mention that he was late, and died outside the examination room.
This is not only bad luck, but also attracted people from the official family, no matter how you look at it, it is a matter of bleeding, the shopkeeper hurriedly said: "God is pitiful, the poor, my house is the cleanest, the elder in the loudspeaker, but every day urging, saying that you can't drink raw water, you have to wash your hands before and after eating, but the shop has done it." ”
He stretched out his fat hands and said, "The little man's hands are very clean. ”
Qian Xiaohao sneered and said, "I'll take these things away first, don't be too loud, by the way, who is he usually close to?" ”
The shopkeeper hesitated for a while, but under Qian Xiaohao's eyes, he immediately confided: "They are all candidates, candidates, now they have all entered the venue, they are all fellow villagers from other places." ”
Qian Xiaohao asked his name, he didn't seem surprised, he is a native of the imperial capital, and he is a few generations of Jinyiwei, even if he is a small official, but he also knows a lot of secrets, he heard the elder's order before, in fact, he already has a spectrum in his heart about this matter, but before, this kind of thing, that is, the candidate was assassinated and stunned, unable to take the exam, basically, if the opposite side is successful, many times few people are willing to stand out for this kind of thing, at most say one, you will take the exam again next time.
But who made the almost omnipotent elder notice, and even intervened, and even set such a trap for everyone to see.
It's to lure the snake out of the hole.
Qian Xiaohao said slowly: "You lead me to take a look, if you are not afraid of anything else, you are afraid of any hysteria infection, then it will be terrible." ”
The shopkeeper seemed to be a little flattering, and said: "Poor, bad, those talented people are not simple, they are all from big families, how can this be?" ”
As he spoke, a silver ticket appeared in the shopkeeper's hand and was about to be stuffed over: "You always take it to drink tea for the brothers." ”
Qian Xiaohao pushed hard, and at the same time glanced at it, knowing that it was a silver ticket of fifty taels of silver issued by a Shanxi ticket number, although it seemed like a lot, but he had a great future, how could he take a future high-ranking official position because of such a small amount of money? Not to mention, this matter has been noticed by the elder's omniscient eyes, so it is all the more necessary to be cautious.
"Lead the way."
It should be said that as the first new imperial examination, in terms of content, it is not too difficult, it is all things in the history books, familiar things, of course, in line with the difficulty of low-grade questions 2o, mid-range questions 5o, and high-end questions 3o, distinguish the grades, to separate the high and low, the low-grade questions are still very easy, and those high-end questions are basically the degree of difficult death.
In the modern examination system, the basic difficulty distinction is about the same, the ratio of easy:medium:difficult, is about 2:5:3 or 3:5:2, and there is a difference in the details
Therefore, although many talented and agile guys have completed more than half of the relatively simple exam questions in one morning, they are also stuck on many difficult problems.
Of course, there are also some talents, usually they are dead reading to the point of reading to the point of death, they don't know who is in front of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, who is behind, who is Yao Shun, so they don't understand the content of the exam that includes a variety of knowledge such as water control and agriculture, so they collapsed, and after the results of various "dice rolling" were selected at random, they directly handed in the papers and left.
This is a small number of cases, and no one cares, but Liang Cunhou is in a very small house, which should have belonged to a certain examiner, and was let out, but it was really like being promoted to three levels in a row, Wang Daren sat there, slowly answering the questions, and put the prepared refreshments next to him to drink water, but he didn't move a sip, but after selecting a topic, he used the prepared charcoal pen to circle the answer sheet.
In this exam, due to the small number of people, the elders did not use any scanning answer sheets, but directly used rice paper, and when the time came, finding someone to answer the answer is, which is almost what children do.
Wang Daren looked up uneasily, and saw that it was the mysterious elder, a little distracted, but immediately settled down, but instead stepped up to start, continue to write, although each question needs to think for a long time, but there is no need to revise and regret, use a pen to erase it, but it can also be called smooth.
Liang Cunhou looked at it for a while, seemed to be very satisfied, and walked out.
He came to a room, which was all himself, whether it was Wang Jian, who was in charge of the "case", or Wu Ming next to him, they were all talking quickly, fortunately, they were all their own people, and they didn't have to be too troublesome.
"Boss Liang, here, what's wrong with that Wang Daren? I won't be able to finish answering, I see a lot of people who came out crying after being blinded casually. Wu Ming asked with a smile.
Liang Cunhou said slowly: "People who can be so jealous that people are drugged to deal with them do have two brushes, and it is mediocre not to attract envy, it is really a wise saying, I am only afraid, this guy can do well in the test." ”
"It's only half a day, is it too late?"
What he said was very reasonable, although the candidates gathered early in the morning to line up, but in line with respect for the indigenous customs, it took several hours to get it done after the red tape of various customs such as sacrificing holes, so the candidates waited until about nine o'clock to enter one by one, and took their seats in turn, the examination papers and other affairs, it took a whole hour, and when the examination was announced, it was already ten o'clock, and Wang Daren did pass about one o'clock at noon, and he was late, and began to be rearranged for the local examination, and waited until he was in a hurry to find the examination papers. When the exam resumes, it's already two o'clock.
But the time designated by the Presbyterian Council is six o'clock, which is almost half of the time, no wonder.
Liang Cunhou thought for a while and said: "His quality is good, whether it is just reserves and psychological quality, not to mention ......" suddenly smiled evilly, and said: "In fact, it is very crooked, everyone else gets up early and queues up to prepare for admission, and when it is tossed until the morning, the physical strength for several hours is empty, and he, who sleeps until noon, is actually the most physically energetic, so he naturally doesn't care." ”
Wu Ming said: "In this way, he took advantage of it, well, speaking of which, the few people who harmed him locked the target." ”
"It's locked," Wang Jian said slowly: "Sure enough, it's a fellow who sees a fellow countryman, and stabs him in the back, I wonder, thousands of candidates, one is bored, and the others can't stop it, and they won't be able to improve their rankings, so why bother." ”
Wu Ming said: "No one cares how rich the millionaire is, and the old Wang next door has raised his salary and hates itchy, this kind of thing is very common, in fact, it is commonplace, the key is, how do we deal with it?" It is not enough to say that the death penalty is not enough. ”
Wang Jian looked teased and said: "It's not about the death penalty, we can't lock people up just because we get drunk with other candidates and competitors, otherwise, under the false rumors, who knows what's going on, the key is, who is our biggest enemy?" ”
Wu Ming thought for a while and said, "Anyway, I know, if I want to destroy the Japanese devils, I can do it in a few hours, well, British?" ”
"The British have the Dutch to deal with, don't worry about it for the time being, our biggest problem is the possible rebound of the rotten Confucian group, before, we were the Heaven and Earth Society, the owner of Aoki Tang incense or something, and it was all kinds of movies to splash dirty water, just because of these rotten Confucians."
Wang Jian said for a while and said, "Liang Tou just heard about this and sent me a text message, which is a very good time to further crack down on the prestige of the corrupt Confucians." ”
Liang Cunhou said: "It's a pity that it is difficult to attach more people, at least the Donglin Party cannot be contacted, and the victims are also Confucian students." ”
Wu Ming said: "Then what do you mean, it seems that you are making a fuss about those few people who drunk Wang Daren?" ”
Liang Cunhou said: "What we really need to fight is actually a certain ideology, that is, in traditional thinking, reading books well, so the stupid idea of good morality, what kind of disciple rules, so I think, those few people, can be a handful." ”
Wu Ming seemed to understand and said, "The higher you hold, the harder you fall?" ”
Wang Jian suddenly laughed heartily and said: "It's a pity, my subordinate who was fooled, the incense master of Aoki Hall is not here, otherwise, you can use him to make a fuss, hey, there are too few capable people under him." ”
Liang Cunhou thought for a while and said: "The point, to let these Confucian scholars be exposed in their ugliness, so that those ugly deeds that were originally unknown in the dark can be exposed at one time, and the best people will be stolen, think about it, what other ugly things will appear?" ”
Wu Ming suddenly sneered and said: "We are so disgusting, but we are thinking about how to harm people, we really look like some big villains, well, it's nothing more than wine and wealth." ”
Liang Cunhou said: "It's just a class, we are here for equality, and in the eyes of these parasitic classes, we are villains." ”
Wang Jian said: "That's right, I'll be sure of this villain, as for what kind of wine and wealth, it's also very easy, you say ......."
In the alley at the beginning of the night, there was a crowd of people everywhere, and almost all of them were preparing for tomorrow's exam, so they all deliberately whispered and were very quiet.
Wu Qihua stood in place, looked left and right, and said to the two people in front of him who had been waiting for him for a long time: "Two, wait for me for a long time." ”
At this time, it was already night, after handing in the papers, the three of them had a tacit understanding, talking here, testing each other, Shan Liwen said: "It's just coming out, so how did Brother Wu do in the exam?" ”
"It's okay, it's okay, it's still thanks to the support of the single brother, well, is there any movement over there."
They looked at the inn in the distance together, where there seemed to be no movement, and the three of them had ghosts in their hearts, and they didn't dare to say anything more.
Lin Weijian suddenly sighed and said: "Last night, I drank a glass of wine with that Wang Daren and Wang Brother, and chatted about the title of the pre-wish gold list, which was just a random glass, how did I expect that Wang Daren did not drink enough, and he was drunk with a glass, and even this morning, he was still hungover, although the three of us urged him in every possible way, they were still drunk, and in the end, although we were helpless, we could only let him continue to sleep soundly, and went to the exam by himself." ”
Wu Qihua heard this, and said complacently: "Yes, yes, that's it, that Wang Daren is so unbearable, we can't stop it." ”
The three of them looked at each other, glanced back and forth a few times, made up their minds, and walked back confidently.
As soon as I entered the door of the inn, I saw the usual enthusiastic and attentive shopkeeper, but the shopkeeper was doing things with his head bored, and seemed to be very busy, the shopkeeper was moving the tables and chairs away, cleaning, sprinkling water and dusting, and the shopkeeper seemed to be burning incense again, and scalding a bowl of vinegar with hot water, and the air was also filled with the smell of vinegar.
Shan Liwen couldn't help it the most, and said: "What kind of taste is this, what is this burning." ”
When the shopkeeper saw the three of them, as if he had seen some relative, he suddenly shouted into the house, "My lord, my lord, they are back." ”
He took three steps and made two steps, rushed up, grabbed Shan Liwen, and said, "This son, don't you know, something big has happened." ”
As soon as Shan Liwen heard that, his brain buzzed, and he thought that Wang Daren had sued the three of them, but it happened that the government was still in charge, and the adult came to arrest him, what did he say? Immediately pulled with all his strength and said, "What are you pulling me for, what does it matter to me, I want to check out." ”
Shan Liwen looked at the other two, not knowing what he was thinking, and the boss said: "Anyway, the adult said, you are not allowed to leave when you come back." ”
The three of them almost panicked, the three scholars, because they saw that Wang Daren was so handy in the new imperial examination, they thought in their hearts, he was only afraid that he was going to high school this time, so he was also a ghost, so he wanted to get drunk, so that after he failed the exam, he actually hit it off, although the three of them didn't plan much, so they did it like this.
Of course, no matter how strong Wang Daren is, it is impossible for him to get drunk with a drink, this is the place where Shan Liwen usually goes in and out of fireworks, and there are many ghost tricks, and sometimes he meets Qing people who are more able to resist, so he is naturally ready to use them to knock them down.
Shan Liwen, Wu Qihua, Lin Weijian, and the vests of some three people are all well-known male stars in Hong Kong movies of certain levels, and this taste is ......
