"Fenyin Lingkou Zheng...... The top of the gold list in Hong De's sixteen years......

In the study room of the mansion in the east of Daliang City, which was purchased by his righteous brother Wen Shaobo, Jie Ziyu held a scroll in his hand, but what he was thinking about was something that had nothing to do with learning. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

In all fairness, before coming to Daliang, Jie Ziyu didn't know about the "Fenyin Order" and "Kou Zheng", and the reason why he learned about the "Zhao Wenlin of the Anling Zhao clan as the Puban Order" was because this matter had been spread in Anling - the old Zhao family of Anling seemed to be eager to let the whole city know about it, and invited the nobles and gentry of the whole city of Anling to be called "Happy with the Monarchs", but in fact it was nothing more than to show off.

Of course, in addition to showing off to satisfy vanity, the Anling Zhao clan also did this to further strengthen the control over the nobles and gentry in Anling, after all, some time ago, when a certain King Su and His Royal Highness King Qing were at odds with each other, there were successive boycotts of the "Su Chamber of Commerce" in various places, which also made some powerful people in Anling City have some other thoughts: That King Su will not fall because of this, right?

It's no wonder that these people have such thoughts, after all, Zhao Hongli, the prince of the East Palace, was not the same as Zhao Hongli, who was very powerful, and was supported by almost half of the aristocratic forces in the country, but what was the result? As soon as the "Beiyi Military Camp Xiao Incident" came out, the crown prince Zhao Hongli immediately fell, and the nobles who supported him, because this incident involved the bad nature of the "Ying Xiao", also left themselves behind, and some simply switched to King Yong and several other princes.

When various local forces resisted the behavior of the "Su Chamber of Commerce", only in Anling, the "Su Chamber of Commerce" almost never suffered losses, because of two reasons: first, in this city and county, ninety percent of the noble gentry are members of the "Su Chamber of Commerce"; Second, the helmsman of the Anling aristocracy, the Anling Zhao clan, firmly stood on the side of Zhao Hongrun, the king of Su, and talked to the nobles who showed uneasiness and panic many times.

In this case, the Anling Zhao clan took advantage of the fact that "Zhao Wenlin was requisitioned by the imperial court as the Puban Order" to banquet the nobles and gentry in the city, which was also to further stabilize the confidence of the nobles and gentry in the city in King Su, and by the way, strengthen their leadership position in Anling.

Among the noble gentry who were invited, there was the father of Wen Shaobo, the righteous brother of Jie Ziyu, and the head of the Wen family of Anling, Wen Xiang.

Because of this, Jie Zi Yu learned about this.

To be honest, Jie Zilu does not have a very good impression of Zhao Wenlin.

After all, his brother-in-law Wen Shaobo is from Anling, how could he not know the details of the Anling Zhao family?

In Jie Ziyu's view, only Zhao Laiyu, the head of the Anling Zhao family, can be called a wise man with wisdom and foresight, and Zhao Laiyu's three sons have been in Anling for so many years and have done nothing, so they can be really mediocre.

Therefore, when he learned that Zhao Laiyu's eldest son Zhao Wenlin was requisitioned by the imperial court as the Pusaka Order, and was personally recommended by Zhao Hongrun, the king of Su, Jie Ziyu saw a bad signal from it: King Su, there is a shortage of people.

It was precisely because of this that he was in a hurry to come to Daliang to participate in this year's examination, otherwise according to his thoughts in previous years, he would still continue to wait, after all, His Royal Highness King Su had not yet expressed his intention to become the king of Wei.

And the reason why I want to participate in the examination is to correct my name: a "gold list leader" will definitely get more attention from that king Su than a "country boy who came out of nowhere".

Something like, "If I have a discerning eye, I will definitely be able to see my talent", it seems that this kind of thing has never been thought of.

Taking a step back, even if His Royal Highness King Su could see his talent, what if he couldn't even enter the door of King Su's Mansion? Sending a post of worship to the Su Wangfu is not just a casual person who is eligible.

To make a name for himself in this examination, to knock on the door of King Su's mansion with the help of this fame, and to express his allegiance to His Royal Highness King Su is the only purpose of this trip.

There is no other way, no matter what, you have to be a help to that Highness.

But what Jie Ziyu never expected was that now by the side of His Royal Highness King Su, there was already a virtuous person who was the "top of the gold list", which was really ......

Although there was no news from the imperial court or public opinion that something like "Kou Zheng has returned to King Su", Jie Ziyu could see it at a glance.

The reason is very simple, because as far as he knows, His Royal Highness King Su is a little cronyistic - take Fenyin Ling Kou Zheng as an example, that King Su Palace must first ensure that Fenyin Ling must be his own person who will obey his orders, and then pay attention to talent.

Nepotism, there are pros and cons, but it is in line with the rules of work of King Zhao Hongrun, after all, this is a rather conceited highness, he can not care whether Fenyin Ling is talented or not, and only requires the person who holds this position to follow his instructions.

For example, Zhao Wenlin's Pusaka Order, Jie Ziyu also knows that some changes in Puban County in the future must be from the instructions of His Royal Highness King Su, not from Zhao Wenlin - this mediocrity is purely a decoration.

However, Fenyin Ling Kou Zheng is not a mediocre talent, because he is the top of the gold list of Hong De's sixteenth year examination, if these characters are mediocre, then what are the other students back then?

『Kou Zheng ......』

Thinking of that future colleague, Jie Ziyu couldn't help but feel a little upset.

Over the years, he has given advice to his righteous brother Wen Shaobo, so that Wen Shaobo has changed from a middle-class aristocratic child to a well-known wealthy businessman in the country, but Jie Ziyu has repeatedly rejected the kindness of his righteous brother Wen Shaobo who is willing to share the family property with him equally, the reason is that he Jie Zizhi is not here.

His ambition is to become the chief staff of Zhao Run, the king of Su, the minister of the hidden palace, and then assist this highness to become the king of Wei, rather than becoming a wealthy merchant who rivals the wealth.

But now, the position of King Su's chief staff seems to be picking up by others, which is tolerable or unbearable.

Getting up and coming to the door of the study, Jie Ziyu looked at the flowers and trees in the courtyard.

I have to say that the mansion purchased by Wen Shaobo can definitely be called a middle-to-upper-level mansion in Daliang, and the inner courtyard alone is bigger than Jie Ziyu's field in Shangshui - thinking of his own few acres of land, Jie Ziyu is a little distressed, after all, a few acres of land were reclaimed by his own hands, but in the past two years, he has followed Wen Shaobo to the south and north to do business, and the fields have long been barren and unpresentable.

"Meson, meson."

Faintly, Jie Ziyu heard the call of his brother-in-law Wen Shaobo.

He raised his head to take a look, and just in time to see his brother-in-law Wen Shaobo running in from outside the mansion with a few Hu guards.

Those Hu guards were slaves purchased from a small tribe of the Sichuan Alliance when Wen Shaobo and Jie Ziyu first arrived in Sanchuan Luocheng, and were given ridiculous names like "Wen Da", "Wen Er", "Wen San" and so on, although they were alcoholic and vulgar, but they were particularly loyal to the master who gave them preferential treatment, so a few years later, Wen Shaobo relieved them of their slave status as masters, accepted them as domestic servants, and also got some weapons and armor for them through some unspeakable channels, and let them serve as guards, is a trustworthy confidant.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that his brother was sweating, Jie Ziyu asked in confusion.

I saw Wen Shaobo running in front of Jie Zi Yu in a few steps, dancing and saying, "Jie Zi, we are going to be developed!" ”

"......" Jie Ziyu looked at the righteous brother and blinked in confusion, in his opinion, this righteous brother who was already rich and well-established was already developed.

Seeing that Jie Zi didn't speak, Wen Shaobo didn't care, and said excitedly: "Jie Zi, guess what I heard?" I just got a letter from the old man, and the old man said that Zhao Wenqu of the Zhao clan in Anling, that is, the second son of Zhao Laiyu, personally visited the old man, hoping that I, the Wen clan, would cooperate with them and fund the construction of an official road leading directly to the commercial water by King Su, and after this road is completed, we can use this ...... at will."

As soon as he said this, Wen Shaobo saw Jie Zilu shaking his head and looking at him with a sigh, and his heart was stunned, and then he remembered the purpose of his going out in the morning: to find out about the news of this year's examination for Jie Ziyu.

Smiling awkwardly, Wen Shaobo hurriedly changed to a flattering tone and said, "Jiezi, don't, don't look at me with such eyes, how could I forget the most important thing?" Don't worry, I've heard a lot about this year's exam. ”

"Tell me about it?" Jie Ziyu looked at Wen Shaobo with disbelieving eyes.

It is no wonder that after all, the past few years of business career have made Wen Shaobo more and more sensitive to money and interests, and he is extremely concerned.

I still remember that last year they met their old friend in Luocheng, Tao Hong, a wealthy merchant from Dingtao, and Wen Shaobo actually communicated with Tao Hong for a night, during which Jie Ziyu felt sleepy and went to rest first, but when he woke up in the morning, he saw that the two were still exchanging with great interest about what was profitable.

The distrustful gaze of the righteous brother made Wen Shaobo feel hurt, and he couldn't wait to show his concern for the things that the righteous brother had instructed, so he hurriedly said: "I have inquired, this year's examination is divided into two rounds, the first round is the preliminary examination, which is a make-up examination for those who have not participated in the township examination or failed the township examination, the date is on March 9, the location is in the Confucius Temple in the city, and it is presided over by the Ministry of Rites......" Speaking of this, he seemed to think of something, and said with a mysterious smile: "Jie Zi, do you guess who is the chief examiner of this year's examination?" ”

"King Su?" Jie Ziyu glanced at Uncle Wen and said casually.

Suddenly, Wen Shaobo felt as if he had been choked by the neck, and his strange laughter stopped.

"How do you know?" He asked, dumbfounded.

Jie Ziyu shook his head speechlessly and said, "It's all written on your face." ”

Wen Shaobo's face was pale, and he regretted that he couldn't hold his breath, but there was no way, who made this righteous brother's intelligence more than a star and a half higher than him.

Thinking like this, Wen Shaobo's mood suddenly improved again, only to see him hook Jie Zi's neck, clench his fists and encourage: "Jie Zi, keep in mind the creed of our brothers' hard work in the past few years, and go all out!" …… Take the first place! ”

"Gold Leader......

The future colleague who was also the top of the gold list came to mind, and Jie Ziyu nodded slowly.

At the same time, in a certain room in the front yard of King Su's mansion, a woman was pointing to a table full of books, her hands on her hips, and she looked at a stunned scribe in front of her.

"This is my aunt and grandmother finally begged from His Royal Highness's study, you have been sleepless for the past few days and have to read it for me, this year's exam, you must get the first place in the exam, don't fall into the reputation of my Su Wangfu, understand? Well?! ”

“……”

The scribe looked up in amazement at the stack of books, which was a line taller than the others.
