Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

Chapter 89



The results of the palace examination were announced on the same day. After the students handed in the papers, they followed the eunuchs to leave the main hall. The mood of waiting was always uneasy, especially Wang Xiubo. Before the emperor paid attention to him, he could take it calmly. It's ups and downs, who can guess what the emperor is thinking, the questions he asked are tricky, and his name is called in public, if there are more, it will be put on the show, but he is just one, at this moment He could feel the malice coming from all directions. If it wasn't for the place he was in now, people would have to be careful, for fear that some people would make irresponsible remarks. Not all literati are like everyone, and they are like eight-year-olds. Not a minority.

The results of the three songs are hand-picked by the emperor, and the emperor will also hint that he is fancy after the top three. As for the other rankings, the emperor will not care.The courtiers who discussed looked at the name marked out by the emperor, and they didn't say anything, but they felt uneasy in their hearts. Could it be that Wang Zai is really going to come back?First give the plaque, and then use the eldest son, then what?No, at the very beginning, it should have confirmed the marriage between General Li's grandson and Prime Minister Wang's youngest son, Yuci... Several people glanced at each other, and they were all covered in cold sweat. Sincerely, they also participated, if the emperor really wants to invite the prime minister to return to the court, they are really different people inside and out.

Half an hour later, the eunuchs who were outside the gate of the civil servants led into the main hall, and now they stood in groups, looking at the literati who came in. The literati looked at these people with complicated eyes, and the generals looked at them with tears in their eyes. There's excitement, there's sarcasm.The students only felt that they were under a lot of pressure, but no one dared to look around. Whoever dared to act rashly here and made a disgrace in front of the imperial court, their previous efforts would be in vain.

"Xinke accepts the order!" The eunuch in charge stood on the hall, holding the imperial edict of bright yellow.The Minister of Civil and Military Affairs and Xin Kezi knelt down at the same time, shouting long live three times.The eunuch opened the imperial decree and proclaimed it.Wang Xiubo's heart was already in his throat. Although he didn't want a high ranking, he still couldn't help being nervous.He is not the No. [-] pick, No. [-] is not him, Tanhua...Xiangcheng, Wang Xiubo.Wang Xiubai was a little stunned, he, he, he actually became Tanhua. He thought that he was at the top of the top two, but he never expected that he would be in the top three.Wang Xiubai no longer knew what words to use to express his current mood, he clenched his hands into fists, and slowly opened them again.

It was impossible for the results of the palace examination in the capital to reach Xiangcheng immediately, except that after Wang Huanzhi bowed in the direction of the capital in the morning, there was no outstanding behavior.Regardless of the result of the son's palace examination, the son has already proved himself, as long as the emperor does not implicate the son because of his fault, the son will be able to make a difference in the future, looking at the plaque hanging on the study, Wang Huanzhi believes that the emperor will not embarrass Qingyi ( Wang Xiubo table word).

In the village, except for the village chief, no one pays attention to what day it is today. Everyone is building sheds and stoves in full swing. The old six's family is really rich. Let's see who is willing to spend such a big capital.If there are praises, there will naturally be those who say sour things, saying why they don't do it in the house, do they despise them, and are afraid that they will dirty the house if they go there.As soon as the voice came out, the people chatting around looked at it as if they were fools.They are farmers who rely on the sky for their food. They are not high-status, nor are they broad-minded, but they are not stupid. What is the status of the old Liu's family now? Aside from Wang Xiubo who has not returned from the capital, the only reason is that the sixth child wants to open a school. , Even if they feel sour, they can only think about it in their hearts. No one in front of or behind people can say that the old Liu family is wrong.

The one who was regarded as a fool by everyone, if she wanted to talk to her, no one would pay any attention to her, and even avoided her far away, for fear of being caught, and if the word spread back home, she would be reprimanded by her parents, elder brother and sister-in-law. Consciously wronged, she went back to her natal family in a fit of anger. She originally wanted to wait for her husband's family to humbly beg her to go back, but she didn't want her natal family to lose face for her after knowing the reason.Her natal parents were so angry that she said she was stupid, but her sister-in-law treated her with eyebrows, and the sarcasm inside and outside of her words made her even more angry.I can only pack my clothes, but I don't know where to go.When I came back from my husband's house, I went back without being invited, and I lost face.She didn't get any comfort from her natal family, but became an outsider instead. The little daughter-in-law was so sad that she sat in the courtyard and cried loudly.The natal parents couldn't bear it, so they sent their son and daughter to Wangcun to apologize to their in-laws.The son felt ashamed, but due to the prestige of his parents, he could only bite the bullet and send his sister back.

Wang Xiujin didn't pay attention to the small things in the village, even if he knew, he wouldn't say anything, as long as it didn't involve their family's personal safety interests, etc., they could still tolerate a few harsh words from others generously, but if they Dadu should be the reliance of the village's progress, so don't blame their family for not being sympathetic.

Three days later, there was an event about flower exploration in Wu County, Xiangcheng City, and it was posted on the list.The yamen servant who announced the good news was once again rewarded generously by the Wang family, and he was so happy that he couldn't stop talking. He repeated the words of congratulations, afraid that he would say too little, and he was sorry for the reward given by the Wang family.

After receiving a good ranking, Wang Huanzhi immediately asked people to buy whips, and then held a banquet on the same day, which lasted for three consecutive days. Mrs. Wang nodded in response to the matter of buying whips, and Mrs. Wang raised her hand to "pinch" the running water banquet. , Pinch gone.But there are no three days, and the banquet from this evening to tomorrow night is still available.

The people in the village listened to it and laughed, Lao Liu's family is capable, Lao Liu used to be the number one scholar, and then became a high-ranking official, all the way to the top, even though he has no official position now, he can't stand his son's ability, look, It is really enviable that the eldest son has become a Tanhua, and the younger son can make money.The little daughter-in-law who was sour before was terrified in her heart. Since returning to her husband's house, her life has been very different from before. How to get in touch with the aunt of the sixth grandfather's family.

When the banquet was set up, the village was even more lively. Wang Xiujin was willing to spend money, and the banquet was naturally not bad. Although it could not be described as exquisite, it was the first in the village.With the sound of firecrackers, Wang Huanzhi picked up the jug, first toasted his elders, then thanked his elders politely, and said that the school will officially admit students the day after tomorrow, and all children who have reached the age of enlightenment can be sent to the school and pass the school examination Anyone can go to school to study.

After Wang Xiujin secretly drank a glass of wine, he felt a little dizzy. Fortunately, there was a servant by his side, and when he saw something was wrong, he immediately carried him back to the mansion.Then, he missed what his father said after his eloquent speech, and he became the No.1 student in the school.After waking up, Wang Xiujin didn't know about this at the first time. There was still a day's banquet, and he was still busy. Compared with last night's, today is a serious banquet. The county magistrate and other officials in the city have made good friends. Big businessmen, some invited, and some uninvited.Uninvited visitors are also treated friendly. As for the gifts sent, the Wang family has said that they will not accept any gifts this time.

After a whole day of excitement, Wang Xiujin felt his face stiffen from laughing. If it wasn't because of his young age, he would probably be dumped under the table by everyone.When he got home, he heard that he was still sitting still, so he was called by his father. Hearing that his father wanted to let him go to school, Wang Xiujin felt bad all over. "Father, it is enough for the elder brother to take the imperial examination."

"Qingyi is not as good as you." Wang Huanzhi had high hopes for his youngest son, and this time the eldest son could win the top spot. He thought that if the youngest son could concentrate on studying, he would be the champion in the future.

"Father, too much alcohol makes people intoxicated. Let's talk about this matter after father sobers up." Wang Xiujin felt that his father was thinking about something again, and decided to go to find his mother later, and let his mother watch over his father.It is fine for one member of the family to enter the court and become an official. If both enter the court, it is good to have a unified opinion. If the opinions are not in agreement, it will cause serious trouble in the future.After Wang Xiujin saluted his father, he immediately left the room. The only person in the family who could take care of his father was his mother.

Mrs. Wang was delighted to hear the younger son's complaint, and patted his son's hand, "It's not bad to go to school. No matter what path you take in the future, you must be able to read and write. As for the imperial examination, mother will persuade you one or two. If you Father insisted, if you don’t go, no one can do anything.”

Wang Xiujin felt overwhelmed, he didn't want to go to school at all, he had been enlightened before, and he had to start all over again?At that time, he bought a few catties of peanuts and came back to squeeze the oil, okay?

It is rare for the parents to have the same opinion, no matter how much Wang Xiujin resists, he has to obediently go to school.Depressed, he threw himself on the table, why did he sit here like a primary school student, he should focus on how to make money make money.

"Little uncle." Wang Juye was not the first to be admitted to the school, and naturally he was not the first to enter the school. Compared with other children who came in and saw Wang Xiujin with a cautious look on his face, he was more relaxed. There is no discomfort in acting like a baby to my uncle who is younger and shorter than me. "The great-grandfather said that the little uncle would come to the school together. I still don't believe it. I didn't expect it to be true."

Wang Xiujin was very depressed, he didn't want to sit here either!No, he has to talk to his father, he spends half a day at school at most, and takes two days off every seven days.If he disagrees, he will run away directly. His business must not be left behind. The elder brother is an official. In the future, everything will be money. If he doesn't make money, where does the money come from?Do you want your mother to come forward?My mother's body hasn't fully recovered yet, so what if she gets tired again.After making up his mind, Wang Xiujin became more energetic, so he began to gossip with Wang Juye, casual gossip, unexpectedly, he got the big news that the village chief wanted to erect a monument in the village, Wang Xiujin thought that it must not be done.

He ran out to find his father, regardless of whether he was a kid who was taking the school exam or not, he hurriedly invited his father aside, and told about the erection of the monument.Although Wang Huanzhi had gusts of wind from time to time, he was still able to think calmly when encountering major events, "The matter of erecting a monument is inappropriate. My father knows how to deal with it. You go in and bring other students to endorse."

"..." Wang Xiujin looked at the sky, he really wanted to slip away now.

The author has something to say: Li Sushan: Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, come out and scold the stupid author for me, I have no part in the whole chapter, I want to see my daughter-in-law.

Wang Xiujin: Can we switch offense?

Li Sushan: No, daughter-in-law, how can you abandon me? I am fine. I can fight in the battlefield, protect you from bullying, and... I don’t know how many words are omitted below.

Wang Xiujin: Too noisy, too much contrast, incapable of accepting

Stupid author: invalid reason.
