Chapter 227: The God of Learning
"Sister, go to the Ministry of Rites and have a look?"
Li Jinglong smiled at his sister and said: "Although it is not popular in our Ming Dynasty to catch sons-in-law under the list, if there is a good-looking and suitable age, it is enough to learn ......."
Li Wufang rolled his eyelids, eager to trap his eldest brother to death.
"What, you're going to find a husband for your niece?"
In a word, Li Jinglong almost choked to death.
"Sister, your niece is not yet seven years old, I, I'm looking for you!"
Li Wuflaw snorted, "No need! After saying that, the girl turned her head to the side, unable to hide her anger. Li Jinglong swallowed and spitted at the mouth, and said with a smile: "Sister, it's not that brother said you, we can't hang ourselves from a tree, that Liu Chun is good, but he is too popular, and let me tell you, he has offended too many people, and he may not be a good match." Also, that person, he can't write well, he can't go with you, find someone who can talk about poetry and papers, how good it would be! ”
Li Wuflaw snorted, "Big brother, those bad things in the court, I don't want to say it, Liu Chun is a favored minister who is valued by the Son of Heaven, this alone is enough, don't look at you as Cao Guogong, there may not be Liu Chun favored?" Also, who of those talented people can explain the reason for the fall of the White Palace? Didn't Liu Chun say it in one word, who has the talent to learn, isn't it clear to the eldest brother? ”
Li Jinglong said in a sullen voice: "He does have some ability, but it's not Wencai, I'm talking about Wencai!" ”
Li Wuflaw was even more unconvinced, "Who said that Liu Chun has no literary talent, I have a poem written by him here, you see!" ”
Li Jinglong subconsciously took it, only to see that there were four sentences on it.
"From a distance, Mount Tai is black and mushy, with thin tops and thick bottoms. If Mount Tai is turned upside down, the bottom is thin and the top is thick. ”
After Li Jinglong finished reading, his eyes widened, "I said sister, you can't be wrong, right?" This was written by Yoo Chun? ”
Li Wufeng smiled: "That's right, what's the matter, I was shocked by Liu Chun's writing?" ”
"It's shocked, and it's shocked!"
Li Jinglong slapped it on the table, and said angrily, "What kind of thing, it's a limerick at all, no, it's not as good as a limerick, it's just a slip of the tongue, and the people who ask for food on the street are better than him...... I said sister, have you been poured ecstasy soup, why can't you tell the good from the bad? ”
Li Jinglong exclaimed, he felt that it was really necessary to find a doctor for his sister.
"Brother, it's easy for you to say, then let me ask you, which one of the people on the street wants to eat, can have the courage to turn Mount Tai upside down? The quality of the poems is first in the artistic conception pattern, Mount Tai is the head of the five mountains, and it is also the dojo of Taiyi to save the suffering Tianzun, in charge of life and death in the world. Liu Chun dared to turn Mount Tai upside down, which shows the ambition of swallowing Lingyun and encompassing the ambition of Unai. Especially looking at his actions, setting up the Royal Bank, issuing new coins, and all kinds of means, unbelievable, and bringing forth the new, all verify his amazing popularity of turning things around. With such mental means and mere poetry, can it be difficult to stop him? It's just that Liu Chun doesn't want to write too neatly, behind the joke, revealing his ambitions, this is the master! ”
Li Jinglong's eyes widened, and his sister explained, he looked horizontally and vertically, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't see anything amazing.
He was silent for a long time, and could only say quietly: "Sister, the eldest brother understands a sentence today, what is called Xi Shi in the eyes of a lover!" You've fallen into the pit! ”
Li Jinglong sighed and walked out, behind which Li Wuflaw was still asking, "Are you not convinced by Liu Chun?" Then do you have the ability to let hundreds of officials dig a pit in the cold wind? Don't think I don't know, don't you want to marry a civil official and make people look down on you? Liu Chun can play with civil officials, you can only grovel and make judgments, what else is there to say? ”
Li Jinglong had nothing to say, he was scolded by his sister and ran away.
As the saying goes, Qin Hui still has good friends, and Li Jinglong also has a lot of fox friends and dog friends, and they get together and talk about this year's imperial examination.
Hui Yuan, who will take the exam, came out, named Xu Guan, who is not very old, only 27 years old.
He is a person from Nanzhili, with a tender face, white and clean, delicate facial features, and a first-class good appearance.
This is nothing, what is really amazing is that since he took the exam, he has won four firsts, counting Huiyuan, it is the top five!
"Cao Guogong, the big guys are all betting, can this Xu Guan get the champion?"
Li Jinglong exclaimed: "Is he sure?" The champion is not so good! ”
As soon as these words came out, all the friends around him laughed.
Li Jinglong was displeased, "What's the matter with you, are you laughing at my ignorance?" ”
Someone put away his laughter and said to Li Jinglong: "Cao Guogong, you are really confused, the palace test will not be dethroned, it will just be re-ranked." For more than 20 years, let alone six songs, even if it is three yuan, some people have said now that this Xu Guan is a Wenqu star descending to earth, and the sky is auspicious in the Ming Dynasty. With such an advantage, can Your Majesty not give the champion? Even if it is to show the prosperity of my Da Ming literary style, I will give Xu Guan the champion, unless he writes it is really worthless! ”
Another humane: "Don't talk nonsense, I have read Xu Dacaizi's article, if you don't give him the champion, heaven will not tolerate it!" ”
……
Everyone said a word to you, I said a word, Li Jinglong was not interested at all.
Ordinary Jinshi, even if it is the champion, they have a high door to the Duke of Caoguo's mansion, and they can't look down on it at all.
But if it's really the leader of the six yuan, it's different.
Twenty-seven years old, a little older, but it's not outrageous, especially if he looks good, with his proud academic qualifications of six yuan, it won't take ten years to be promoted to the first level of the department, or even earlier.
If the Li family can recruit such a son-in-law, it will be a strong combination, which is wonderful!
Liu Chun's kid, Li Jinglong admitted, is not bad. But the problem is that Lan Yu and the Xu family are staring, he can't let his sister be small, right?
It's better to retreat to the second, no, it's Gao Pan! Xu Guan is much stronger than Liu Chun!
Don't let the beautiful jade go, what are you doing staring at the stubborn stone?
What Tarzan fell over, it's like a fart at all!
Li Jinglong vowed that he must achieve the pair of mandarin ducks of his sister and Xu Guan, they are so suitable, they are made in heaven.
Just where to find Xu Guan?
I also have to ask the family, if I don't marry Xu Guan, it's best if I don't get married, but if I get married, I have to think of a way...... Li Jinglong asked around, but he didn't know that the perfect sister-in-law in his heart was in front of Liu Chun at the moment, respectful, like a primary school student.
"Hahaha, Hui Yuangong, I know that with your talent and learning, you will be the best, and there is no difficulty. If you have time, I'll give you a toast to celebrate! ”
Xu Guan hurriedly stood up, bowed to Liu Chun and said, "Lord Liu loves him, and he is grateful. It's just that there are still some things to ask an adult. ”
Liu Chun said with a smile: "I'm a person, everything else is successful, but I can't write Bagu Wen, if you want to ask about the palace test, I can't help it." ”
Liu Chun stated in advance, and Xu Guan coughed lightly, "Lord Liu, it is indeed a matter of the palace test, but it is not an article...... I, I heard that the original meeting was not me! ”
When Liu Chun heard this, his face changed instantly. He stared at Xu Guan and knocked on the table rhythmically, Xu Guan lowered his head silently, he also knew that the matter was serious.
In the imperial examinations of the past dynasties, as long as there was fraud for personal gain, it was a major case, and it was difficult to say that it was so extensive that it was difficult to speak.
He heard the discussion in the restaurant, and his heart was raised.
Originally, Xu Guan planned to go to Liu Sanwu for verification, but when he thought that the old gentleman was too famous and there were too many literati to consult, at this juncture, if he went, he would have a bad association.
Thinking about it, only Liu Chun has some dealings with him, and he is the most favored, and he has little to do with civil officials.
"Lord Liu, you know your life experience, I went to the Japanese country as an envoy, I studied hard, I want to test my fame, not only to get ahead, I, I also want to change back to my original surname, to truly glorify my ancestors, I, everything I have bet on this imperial examination."
Liu Chun understands Xu Guan very well, and he won't say anything don't care, relax his spirit, just play normally and other!
The imperial examination is held once every three years, who doesn't want to win the Toad Palace!
"What the hell did you hear? How could there be a saying that it was supposed to be Yuanzhi? ”
Xu Guandao: "Lord Liu, on the day of the list, I was in the restaurant, there was a talented man from Jiangxi, and he swore that this time the imperial examination was very simple, and he would definitely be able to get into the top three, and said that he was lucky, that is, Huiyuan, and said that this time the three tripods must be selected from the talents of Jiangxi." ”
Liu Chun frowned, Jiangxi was indeed a major province in the imperial examination in the early years of the Ming Dynasty, and contributed a lot of talents, and many of the first auxiliary university scholars came from Jiangxi. It was not until later that Xia Yan and Yan Song became the first assistant, and Jiangxi's limelight was suppressed by Zhejiang and Nanzhili.
If Sanding Jia is all from Jiangxi, Liu Chun is not surprised. But surprisingly, someone actually released the wind in advance, is there really such a thing?
"Brother Xu, in that case, how did you get admitted to Huiyuan, is there any news?"
"Yes!" Xu Guandao: "I heard people say, because I am a senior Xi, and it is four times in a row, all of them are first, and since I participated in the exam, I have never missed, so some people want to give me a huiyuan, or even a champion, let me get six songs!" ”
Liu Chun was silent for a moment, tilted his head and said, "What is the reason?" They won't help you for nothing, will they? ”
Xu Guan smiled bitterly: "The matter is here, I heard that they want me to advise Your Majesty as an auspicious person, stay in Jinling, don't move the capital!" ”
"Oh?" Liu Chun's voice was raised, this move was really unexpected by him.
Xu Guan has been the first in six consecutive years, becoming the first six yuan in the history of the Ming Dynasty, except for the birth of Wenqu Xing, there is no other explanation.
Zhu Yuanzhang wants to move the capital, in fact, one of the most important reasons is that the palace feng shui bureau is not good.
Don't think it's a joke, in this era of celestial and human induction, a broom star in the past can make the world messy, how can the feng shui of the palace be idle?
Who is going to persuade Zhu Yuanzhang now, Lao Zhu only needs to ask rhetorically, do you want to be unfavorable to the monarch's father?
This sentence is enough to kill everyone.
But if a guy who is suspected of being the reincarnation of an immortal tells Zhu Yuanzhang to stay in Nanjing, maybe Lao Zhu will have nothing to say.
Who came up with the solution?
You really can't underestimate these literati......
"Brother Xu, in that case, someone gave you wealth, what else is there to worry about?"
Xu Guan grinned and was about to cry, "Lord Liu, Your Majesty insists on moving the capital, if I talk nonsense and annoy Your Majesty, I will be finished!" I'm here for help! ”
