Chapter 225 Volume B The cicada wakes up before the golden wind moves
Jia Zheng paced back and forth in the study with his hands behind his back, sighing from time to time.
Today is the last political debate of the Qiu Wei Competition. Thinking of this grand occasion is enough to touch him, who has always prided himself on being a scholar.
It's a pity that he never experienced this kind of scene when he was young. If Brother Zhu had been stronger, he might have been able to pass the Qiu Wei exam. This made Jia Zheng's eyes wet.
"Baoyu hasn't come yet?" Jia Zheng became more and more anxious, and his voice became shrill, "Where did this evil obstacle go today?"
Li Shi'er has already ordered people to find Baoyu, but there is no one in Baoyu's room. The maids also said that Mr. Bao didn't know where he went after taking a nap. Maybe he was in Lixiangyuan or Miss Lin.
"Master, I've already sent someone to look for him." Li Shi'er secretly drummed in his heart. He didn't know why the master was in a bad mood today. If he couldn't find the second master Bao, he would probably have to eat the steak again if he came back late. .
"Hmph, I've been here for half an hour and you haven't found it yet? I heard that he and the younger brother of Brother Dongfu Rong's daughter-in-law spend so much time together that they don't even want to read anymore?" When I thought of this, Jia Zheng was furious and subconsciously wanted to ask someone to get the board to prepare.
This was what he heard when he was resting in Aunt Zhao's house. The source should be Brother Huan. However, Jia Zheng did not believe it easily. After asking someone to inquire about it, he called the private school teacher and asked in detail. This is the conclusion.
It seems that there is something wrong with it, and it seems hard to tell now, but it is true that this book seems to be just a quick read.
Seeing that the eldest son of the Feng family has already gone to take the Qiu Wei exam, his own son is enjoying his time. Baoyu is already twelve years old, and the eldest son of the Feng family is about to enter Qingtan Academy at this age. And what about Baoyu?
Jia Zheng's liver ached when he thought of this. Is this gem really not the seed for reading?
Thinking of the fact that the school teacher said that Huan Ge'er and Lang Ge'er should study much more seriously, how could Jia Zheng not become more and more dissatisfied with Baoyu's performance and become more and more impatient in comparison.
“You haven’t come back yet?” After waiting for another moment of incense, Jia Zheng’s face was as frighteningly gloomy as before the storm.
Li Shi'er was already wondering whether he should go and ask someone to tell his wife first.
This Baoyu will definitely be beaten when he comes back. If not, he will be beaten until he can't get out of bed.
The wife will definitely vent her anger on her family in the end. What's more, last month, the wife specially ordered someone to bring some local products to her house. Although they are not worth much, they are still the wife's thoughts. Li Shi'er also knows that this must be some degree of thought. Let yourself help her keep an eye on the master.
There is no need for anything else. The only thing that needs to be paid attention to is the matter of Mr. Bao. This is what Jin Chuaner in the wife’s room brought to herself.
Before he could answer, he saw someone flashing outside. Li Shier hurriedly went out: "But Mr. Bao is back?"
"I haven't gone back to Mr. Li yet, but a letter came from the concierge saying that someone from my uncle's house is here, and I would like to ask the second master to go and talk to him."
Hearing this, Li Shier felt relieved. He finally found a way. Now it was better. He hurried into the house: "Master, there is a message from my uncle, please come to the house immediately."
“Oh?” Jia Zheng was also stunned. Brother-in-law is back? Didn’t you say you went to Xuanfu Town? After my brother-in-law became the governor of Xuanda, he basically traveled outside the capital. The three towns of Shanxi, Datong, and Xuanfu were the most important places to defend the capital. Naturally, he did not dare to ignore them. Why did he come back at this time and find himself?
"What's the matter?" Jia Zheng nodded. Li Shi'er had already asked the maid to come and change the master's clothes quickly, but his words were not lost. "I'm afraid there is something important. I have to invite the master at this time." Go as early as possible."
Jia Zheng was originally a person who didn't have much idea. After the expert said this, he believed it and hurriedly asked the maid to change clothes, "Then Master, if Second Master Bao comes back..."
"Let me send you this meal. If it happens like this next time, the old accounts and the new accounts will have to be settled together!" He was very angry, but he had no choice but to do it. When he came back, he was afraid that Baoyu would have got the news and went to his mother's place to hide from the disaster. .
On the way to Bingbuwa Heng Street, Jia Zheng could see many scholars and students talking happily in twos and threes. Some people were dejected, and more people were restless. Everyone had to wait until twenty days later. The results were released to reveal the final fate of the Qiuwei competition in this subject.
Thinking of the three people in his house, if Baoyu really couldn't read, he might have to spend more time on Huan Geer and Langeer.
Needless to say, Lang Ge'er, but if this Huan brother is really good at studying, wouldn't the comparison between the two make Baoyu become gold and jade, but the outside is ruined? I wonder if Baoyu will be stimulated by such a comparison and become more angry and stronger?
As soon as he entered Wang Ziteng's study, he saw Wang Ziteng looking at something attentively.
“Second brother.”
"Cunzhou is here, sit down." Wang Zitenghei lost a lot of weight, but his aura became more powerful and fierce. "Originally, I wanted to talk to you about the three girls in your family, but I'm afraid I can't do that now."
"Oh?" Jia Zheng was stunned and didn't react. What about the girl? Is it Feng Ziying?
"In the past few months, people have also inquired. The Feng family's intention is to wait until the Feng family's eldest son Jinke Qiu Wei. In addition, I also asked and said that the Feng family's eldest son's classics are indeed not good. If he can study for three more years, This Qiu Wei is more certain, so I thought that if the Feng family's elder brother fails to win this Qiu Wei, Cunzhou can ask someone to send a message to see if the two families can get married, but now it seems..."
Jia Zheng was a little confused by Wang Ziteng's words. Why did Wang Ziteng think that the Feng family's elder man could pass the exam when the exam was just finished today?
As if aware of Jia Zheng's doubts, Wang Ziteng handed the paper in his hand to him.
Jia Zheng took a look and said, "A brief discussion on the government's response strategy after the disaster in the North."
He suddenly understood that this should be a question for the Shuntianfu Qiu Wei Policy Essay in Jinke.
"Cunzhou, do you understand?" The prince breathed a sigh of relief, "There was a severe flood in the capital last month. In previous years, there would definitely be epidemics after floods, but although there was one this summer, the situation was much better. It is said that it was due to the Qing Dynasty. Tan Academy's early warning and an "Epidemic Prevention Preparation" written by Tan Academy, and the policy examination questions of this subject in Beizhili are based on this. I am thinking that Qing Tan Academy will take this exam in this exam. Take advantage of everything.”
Jia Zheng finally understood. My brother-in-law may think that such a policy topic is familiar to the students of Qingtan Academy, so the Feng family will definitely get good results. Then the Feng family will probably have to pass the exam. However, once Qiuwei passes and he becomes a civil servant, the Feng family will become very concerned about Tanchun's commoner background.
To be honest, Jia Zheng didn't care too much about this before. He felt that even though the Feng family was studying at Qingtan Academy, given his age and foundation, he was afraid that this subject was unlikely, and there might be some in the next subject. I hoped that there would be two or three years left to slowly plan this matter, but I didn't expect that the situation would become like this.
"Second brother, in this Autumn Palace Competition, there are more than 4,500 people in Beizhili, and only more than 100 people are selected. Even if the Feng family elders want to take advantage of this, I think I may not be able to speak Chinese style lightly. ?”
"I hope so." Wang Ziteng sighed. Jia Zheng's words were not wrong. No one in Qiu Wei or Chun Wei dared to say that he was absolutely sure. Some scholars with a good reputation before the exam also lost their jobs. Not to mention Feng Ziying, who only studied at Qingtan Academy for two years.
"If we know that the eldest son of the Feng family has not passed away, then Cunzhou can ask someone to find out what the Feng family means. It would be best if we can promote a marriage between the two families. I will also go to Xinyulin to see Feng. What Tang means is..."
Wang Ziteng always felt that it would be a pity if Feng Ziying could not win over. The fact that the three girls from the Jia family were concubines was indeed a big obstacle. Even if Feng Ziying had not passed Qiu Wei, she might not be able to do it. If not, then she could try the Xue family girl. It's just that the identity of the Xue family makes people a little short of breath, and the sister's legitimate son is a careless one. If the Feng family knows about it, I'm afraid it will be a problem.
Thinking of this, Wang Ziteng really feels that no one can be as good as he wants in all aspects, which is a pity for the eldest daughter of the Jia family.
****
It was already three o'clock in the morning when Feng Ziying woke up.
He was carried back, and he felt more and more that he had become the real Feng Ziying after coming to this time and space.
Whether it is rice wine or shochu, the amount of it has dropped sharply.
My head was still a little dizzy, but as soon as I turned over, I heard rapid footsteps coming in from outside, "Master, are you awake?"
“Hmm, how long has it been?” Feng Ziying held her forehead, still feeling pain and swelling.
I couldn't remember how many bowls of honey water Yun Shang fed me last night. Fortunately, I still insisted on Yun Shang serving me. Thinking about it, if Ruixiang or Baoxiang came to feed me honey water, it would really be a pain on my back. I feel sick of the cold. I'm really afraid that I'm going to vomit before I drink the honey water.
"It's almost noon." There was a trace of worry on Yun Shang's pretty face, but when she saw Feng Ziying squinting her eyes as if observing the sunshine outside the window, she added: "It's still a bit sunny, and the young master's classmates are all resting in the hostel. A classmate came to leave a message earlier, saying that they were going back to the academy first, and some students might have to go home first."
It takes twenty days from the beginning of the exam to the announcement of the results, which means you have to wait until the end of August to see whether you are Chinese or not.
For example, those who are close to each other can go home, wait until the time is almost up, and then come back to wait. Of course, more people prefer to wait in temples, hotels, and academies. This does not have a clear result. Many people do not dare to go back. House's.
Sorry, I haven’t heard about it yet, so I don’t know how to apologize. sweat!
