Chapter 575 The examiner and the old people

The first half of the year was almost over, and the imperial court, which had been quiet all the time, suddenly started to move frequently.

The first action is to officially promulgate a government order to gradually change the salt law back to the Kaizhong law in three years.

When the news came out, some families were happy and some were sad. Merchants in the north and border provinces became optimistic, while salt merchants in the south suffered a severe setback.

The second action is to start preparing to conquer Annan, but most people don't feel much about it.

Anyway, the coach and the split candidates have been determined, and they will go south in a few days, and then spend half a year to deploy troops and accumulate food and grass.

Li Chengliang's father, Li Jing, has been gilding in the Beijing camp for the past two years, and Qin Dewei asked his great-grandfather to take Li Jing with him when he went south.

Anyway, they are all on their own, so let's get some credit together.

If Li Jing, the eldest brother of the Li family, is pushed forward and given him a commanding officer, the Li family will be ashamed and reluctant to part with a little lady!
Qin Dewei was behind the two major events of the Yanzheng and the Southern Expedition, and he also made the plan, but he was not responsible for the implementation.

In addition, after some operations by Xia Yan, a scholar, Feng En was finally appointed as a member of the household department, a foreigner, a inspector of the salt censor, and an errand of rectifying the salt law.

Therefore, Master Feng, who has spent a whole month in the capital, is about to leave the capital and go south.So Qin Dewei made an agreement to see Master Feng off at that time.

One day, Qin Dewei was going to the Hanlin Academy, when suddenly an old friend came to visit him. It was Wang Ying, a Juren from Taicang, Suzhou.

In the [-]th year of Jiajing, Wang Ying and his father-in-law were ranked in the same list, and he also had a friendship with Qin Dewei.

However, Wang Yan suddenly lost his luck after that, and failed in the two examinations of Jiajing 11 years and Jiajing 14 years.

This time Wang Yan came to Beijing to prepare for next year's examination in advance, and he also brought a letter from Wen Zhengming.

At this time Zeng Mian had already gone south, so Qin Dewei received Wang Ying alone.

But Wang Yan not only came here by himself, but also led his 11-year-old son Wang Shizhen, who is a historical celebrity.

The leader of the literary world after 30 years, the dominant literary world of the Ming Dynasty for 20 years, one of the seven sons after the restoration, the author of the legendary "Jinpingberry", a writer, historian, and literary theorist.

As long as this little Wang Shizhen doesn't meet someone surnamed Fan, he will be almost invincible in the Ming Dynasty literary world.

But Qin Dewei has traveled through seven years, and it is not surprising that he has seen too many historical celebrities.

And now he is the champion of Wenkui, and most historical celebrities are not as good as him.

So facing the childhood version of Wang Shizhen, Bachelor Qin didn't have much psychological fluctuations, and it would be fine after being an old friend normally.

He just asked curiously: "Brother Wang rushed to the exam, why did you bring your son here?"

They were old friends, and Wang Yan was not polite, and said truthfully: "I am young and standing, but I still have nothing, and I am really ashamed of my ancestors.

But my son has been extremely intelligent since he was a child, and he is the steed of our family. In the future, we can count on him to shine in our family.

I just want to travel with you to increase my knowledge, and by the way, I will also visit and get to know senior figures like you. Please help me a lot in the future. "

Qin Dewei is not surprised, this is normal, the relationship in the literary world is like this.

At this time, little girl Wang Shizhen stepped forward to salute obediently.

Qin Dewei laughed a few times "hehe", how time flies, and he has become a senior.

When I first transmigrated here, I was only one year older than Wang Shizhen in front of me.

I couldn't help but teased and said, "Can you write poetry?"

Wang Shizhen replied: "The younger generation has a regulated poem, and I will give it to Bachelor Qin!"

Then he tried his best to read aloud with a childish voice:
"Heavenly Palace opened the palace to encourage the virtuous, and the first class of immortals served the Jade Emperor. Only Taibai was relegated from Yaochi, and the East was the one who took away the stars.

The consensus in the Western Qing Dynasty was to contain fragrant officials, and the Central Ban still called Zhuangyuanlang.I am more happy to meet Tianyan morning and evening, and then Li Yun compiles colorful cloud chapters. "

Fog Grass!Unprepared Qin Dewei was shocked!Suddenly, he was covered in rainbow farts!
This poem is touted not bad!Qin Dewei immediately felt ecstatic, feeling refreshed all over.

Is this what it feels like to be praised by others for its high quality?Sure enough, it is a completely different experience from boasting.

Counting it, this is the first time that Qin Dewei has been praised in such a poem.

It turned out that Qin Dewei was too young to be embarrassed by others, flattering and flattering a teenage boy.

Moreover, Qin Dewei was too arrogant, others only wanted to beat him, and did not write poems to praise his enthusiasm.

Another very important point is that Qin Dewei's reputation as a poet is too resounding, and others are too embarrassed to play tricks on him.

Therefore, in recent years, almost no poems have been given to Qin Dewei. In many cases, Qin Dewei can only use themes such as "Self-Report" to brag about himself.

Then others found that no matter how much they flattered, they might not be as good as Qin Dewei's self-boasting, so it became a vicious circle, and they didn't even want to give Qin Dewei a poem.

At this moment, Qin Dewei also reciprocated, saying with great admiration: "This son is really a thousand-mile horse! There are people who follow my way, and he has a bright future!"

Tude said these few words, Wang Yan said with a smile: "Brother Chengxian is auspicious! I hope you will take care of me in the future!"

Qin Dewei nodded and said: "I think the handle of the world will be handed over to this son in the future!"

Wang Yan: "."

Let's flatter each other, but we must also pay attention to a basic rule, what you Qin Banqiao said is too fake!
After thinking for a while, Wang Yan said again: "When my brother participates in the literary gathering in Beijing, how about taking my son with you?"

Wang Shizhen looked at Qin Dewei expectantly. He heard that Literati Ya would often have beautiful older sisters, and according to the old man surnamed Wen, Senior Qin was especially good at this.

Qin Dewei scratched his head in distress, is there still a literary world in Beijing now?

As for the gatherings in the literary world, it seems that after the eight talented scholars in Jiajing were beaten to pieces by themselves, they were no longer in the limelight.

Now that more than half of the eight talents have left the capital, and I, a new banner figure, is obsessed with poetry, the capital still has nothing to say in the literary world.

Besides, the place in the capital is different from the south, politics is the mainstream, so I don't have the mind to build the literary world.

Hey, the decline of the literary world is all because of my irresponsibility.

But after thinking it over and over again, Qin Dewei solemnly said to Wang Yan: "Young people should put their studies first, and don't indulge too much in poetry and literature.

You can go to the Hanlin Academy with me for a tour, and find a learned Hanlin teacher for your son. "

Wang Shizhen: "."

After running two or three thousand miles, do you still have to go to school?But that's not the case with Senior Qin in other people's mouths!
Wang Yan was overjoyed: "That's a good thing! I heard that most of the students taught by the Imperial Academy will be able to win Jinshi in the end!"

My son's flattering poem is so worth it!Unexpectedly, Qin Dewei liked this mouth so much!
Qin Dewei opened Wen Zhengming's letter while chatting with Wang Yan.

After reading it, he said to Wang Yan with a strange expression, "Why is Senior Wen interested in the township examination?"

Wang Yan replied: "When I visited Senior Wen at the beginning of the year, he seemed to be thinking about taking the provincial examination again. I don't know who the chief examiner in Nanzhili is this year."

Qin Dewei said sincerely: "If he knows who the chief examiner is, he may not want to participate."

Wang Yan was puzzled. Could it be that the chief examiner is an enemy?

Also, the chief examiner is appointed by the emperor at the last minute, why can Qin Dewei confirm it now?
Qin Dewei couldn't say anything, he just raised his finger and pointed at himself.

Wang Yan was horrified. If so, then Wen Zhengming might be very ashamed and give up the idea of ​​taking the provincial examination!
Two days later, Master Feng officially left Beijing to take up his post in Yangzhou.

Qin Dewei took Miss Li to the suburban official pavilion to see Master Feng off.

Now that Qin Dewei goes out of the city, he usually takes Miss Li with him to add a layer of protection to his own safety.

Three cups of fine wine, parting Yiyi.

Master Feng sighed: "Over the years, we have gathered less and separated more. Although the world is like neighbors, we don't know when we will meet next time."

Qin Dewei smiled and said, "Maybe soon."

If you really become the chief examiner of the Nanzhili Township Examination, you must pass by Yangzhou.

Suddenly, they heard the sound of horseshoes, and several knights rushed over. It looked like they were Jinyiwei official school!

The leader shouted from a distance: "Scholar Qin accepts the order!"

While Master Feng was dumbfounded, the Jinyiwei Official School quickly announced the decree.

Appoint Fengxun Doctor, Attendant Bachelor, Admiral Siyiguan Qin Dewei as the Chief Examiner of the 16 years Dingyouke Township Examination in Jiajing, Southern Zhili!

According to the usual practice, after receiving the order, the chief examiner must go on the road as soon as possible, and try to prevent contact with outsiders as much as possible.

Qin Dewei looked confused, did he just leave like this?I haven't said hello to my family yet!

Master Feng scratched his head and wanted to talk to Qin Dewei and ask what was going on, but Jin Yiwei blocked him.

Then several Jinyiwei officials surrounded Qin Dewei, and said respectfully:

"Scholar Qin, please, we have already received the survey and cooperation, and there are post stations along the way to supply, so there is no need to worry.

In addition, we will live in Tongzhou tonight. We can send people to pick up clothes and other things and send them to Tongzhou. "

Miss Li suddenly shouted excitedly: "Bring me to my slave! Bring me to my slave!"

With today's normal information transmission efficiency, it is not known when what happened in the capital would spread to Nanjing.

But there are some special things that will definitely be passed on.

So when Qin Dewei was still on the way, the news of him being the chief examiner finally reached Nanjing City.

On July [-], at Qin Dewei's "alma mater", that is, Jiangning County School, it was supposed to be a back-to-school lecture day.

But it just so happened that the county government sent news that the chief examiner of the Nanzhili Township Examination was Qin Dewei, the number one scholar from Jinling.

The entire county school immediately seemed to be boiling water. Dozens of candidates who were preparing to take the provincial examination just wanted to sing and dance.

An old student over [-] years old who had participated in the provincial examination five times had tears in his eyes and raised his arms and shouted: "Finally we are saved!"

You can't blame the students for losing their composure. The biggest advantage of taking the exam these days is the familiarity with the examiner.

In the last township examination, only three people from the two counties in Nanjing City won the exam, and only Qin Dewei in Jiangning County won the exam. What a desperate probability!
But if Qin Dewei came to be the chief examiner, the number of people admitted to Jiangning County would have to increase tenfold, maybe even tenfold.

If there are fifty candidates in Jiangning County, ten to a dozen are selected, what is the probability of this!
The overall acceptance rate of Nanzhili Township Examination is less than [-]%!
At this moment, many students were circling around Gao Changjiang, chatting around him.

From the 11th year of Jiajing to the 16th year of Jiajing, it took a full five years, and I don’t know how many beatings, Gao Changjiang finally realized a dream, to be the "leading brother" in the county school.

There is only one reason, he is the closest to the examiner surnamed Qin!

A young scholar who had only entered school in Jiajing 14 years ago and had never met Qin Dewei asked Gao Changjiang, "I heard that Senior Qin is a man of integrity, pure in character, upright and selfless."

Gao Changjiang looked suspiciously at the young scholar who spoke, are you talking about Qin Dewei?

Then I heard the little scholar continue to say: "So, when Senior Qin took the main exam, will he be fair and strict, and not deliberately favor our fellow countrymen?"

This question actually expressed the aspirations of many people present.

Although the acceptance rate of fellow examiners from their hometowns is always miraculously higher, there are exceptions.

Gao Changjiang enjoyed the feeling of being supported by others, and he couldn't let everyone's hopes be dashed, so he replied:

"You don't understand me, Brother Qin! I, Brother Qin, are indeed upright, but definitely not selfless!

As the saying goes, rules are nothing more than human feelings, and I, brother Qin, are the best at handling this! "

Everyone's fire of hope was rekindled, and someone shouted again: "Brother Gao, do you have the article of Bachelor Qin? Can you let me copy it and figure it out?"

As we all know, before the exam, studying the examiner's articles is also a very useful way to review, so people who are familiar with the examiner will be very advantageous.

Qin Xueshi's poems are everywhere in Nanjing, and several collections of poems have been compiled, but I really haven't heard of anyone who has Qin Dewei's stereotyped essays.

When Gao Changjiang heard this request, his face was a bit embarrassed, maybe he was too scumbag, Qin Dewei had never met him before.

So Gao Changjiang turned his head to look at the other person beside him, that is, Xing Yifeng, who was second only to Qin Dewei in Wannian and a top student in the county school.

"Yifeng, do you have Brother Qin's article?" Gao Changjiang asked expectantly.

In the county school trio back then, Xing Yifeng was the one who really excelled in his studies. Maybe Qin Dewei and Xing Yifeng had some kind of secret communication.

But Xing Yifeng also shook his head, and said with a wry smile: "I don't have any here either, and you also know that Qin Banqiao never talks about classics and articles with us."

Another old student remembered something and said in surprise: "I remember that Qin Banqiao ranked first in every monthly county school exam. Where are the articles he wrote?"

Another old student was also caught in the memory, "Qin Banqiao was indeed No. [-] every month at that time, but he never published his articles. Anyway, when the monthly list comes out, he will be No. [-]."

Everyone was talking, looking at each other, the scene was a bit awkward for some reason, could it be that they discovered the unknown black history of celebrities?
It was the younger scholar who broke the silence and asked again: "Then where is Senior Qin's learning?"

The hottest academic debate in recent years is the traditional Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism and the emerging Yangming Mind-School.

But for candidates, there is nothing to argue about, whichever side the examiner prefers is the truth!

So Gao Changjiang was even more at a loss. Does Brother Qin have academic thoughts?
At this time, top student Xing Yifeng finally gave us some useful information:

"Qin Banqiao doesn't really care about Neo-Confucianism or Mind-Study, what he advocates is Qi-Science."

Neo-Confucianism and Psychology are both idealism, and Qin Dewei, a traveler, has always been inclined to the simple materialism of Qiology.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay again, which made it more difficult.

The study of qi is a relatively small academic school nowadays, and there are not many or no contact with it.

Although it is said that according to the regulations, the eight-legged essays in the exam are limited to Cheng Zhu's Neo-Confucianism, but the examiner likes Qi, so he has to be skewed in this way.

So I didn’t say anything, and I hurriedly looked for books on qi for tutoring these days.

The heated discussions continued until almost noon, when the county scholars dispersed in twos and threes.

Gao Changjiang and Xing Yifeng walked out together, and when they reached the gate of the county school, Gao Changjiang suddenly let out an "oops" in shock.

Then he said to Xing Yifeng: "I suddenly thought of a question. If Qin Banqiao becomes the chief examiner, don't we want to worship him as the old teacher? Then we will kneel down to meet each other?"

Xing Yifeng couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "You can pass the Juren examination first, then let's talk!"
