Chapter 111
The young man was taken aback, he knew that the richly dressed young man in front of him regarded himself as a beggar.

"I am not a beggar." The boy said stiffly.

"Oh." Zhu Gaoxuan's eyes were calm.

He didn't do a good deed every day by giving alms, but he felt unlucky when he saw that there were two dying people not far from his palace.

If you want to die, don't die at the door of my house, it would be nice for you to die at the door of Hanwang!

Zhu Gaoyi never thought of himself as a good person. Whether a bastard like him can see his ancestors after death is a problem.Not to mention doing one good deed every day, doing a hundred good deeds every day will not be able to repay his karma.In this case, it would be better to do one evil every day, happy and happy.

Zhu Gaoyi said seriously: "Don't you think it's immoral to die in front of someone else's house? I suggest you go to find a place with good geomantic omens. Anyway, don't die in front of my house, or I will be blamed for kicking people out."

After saying these words, Zhu Gaoxuan nodded slightly and gave himself a thumbs up.

To be a human being, you have to blame yourself less and insult others more, be strict with others, and be lenient to yourself.Instead of reflecting on yourself, blame others.

Zhu Gaoyi used to be so kind and lived like a dog, but now he is much happier cursing people every day.

The young man coughed and begged, "Help, save him..."

"What?" Zhu Gaoxuan frowned slightly.

The boy said calmly, "Save my brother, please."

Zhu Gaoyi glanced at the man leaning on the young man's arms, his face was like gold paper, his lips were chapped, it was obvious that he was short of food and water, and because of the cold and injury, he was exhausted, his lifeline was crumbling, like a candle in the wind , may die at any time.

"Life is like nothing. This is the tragedy of the times. But fortunately, I had a good pregnancy. No matter how sad the times are, it doesn't matter to me."

Zhu Gaoyi sighed, turned and left.

Why should he help each other?

King Qi's Mansion is not a good hall, and Zhu Gaoxuan is not a kind person. There are a sea of ​​poor people in the world. A heavy rain in Shandong floods killed an unknown number of people, and created an unknown number of refugees. Is it possible that Zhu Gaoxuan wants to rescue them one by one? ?
Can he be saved?
The young man knew that this was the last straw, so he tried his best to hug Zhu Gaoyi's boots: "I can promise you anything, please, save my brother!"

This was the first time in his life that he begged others so humbly.

But Zhu Gaoxuan just glanced at him lightly and waved his hand: "Old Lu."

Lu Chaoyang, who had been waiting for his lord's order, walked over without hesitation, pointed at the boy with the tip of the knife, and said in a cold voice, "Let go, get out!"

The evil spirit from Lu Chaoyang's body dissipated, as if condensed into a real blood mist, like a ferocious evil god. The young man had no doubt that the other party had the guts to commit murder on the streets of the capital!
But the young man still hugged Zhu Gaoxuan's thigh firmly, and said firmly: "Give me a chance, and I will return you a piece of land!"

"Arrogance." Lu Chaoyang smiled disdainfully, "That's right, you don't need to pay for big talk."

Zhu Gaoyi was not in a hurry, and asked leisurely: "What value can you have to me?"

Seeing the opportunity, the boy quickly said, "How valuable I can be to you depends on how much desire you have!"

"A joke." Zhu Gaoyi smiled contemptuously, "If you were really capable, would you end up in such a mess?"

It's really ridiculous for a young man to be speechless for a while. He sold himself for a price in the past, but now he has such miserable virtues. Why should people believe in him?
"I am Su Wu, a Juren from Fuzhou in Xin Maonian!" The young man thought for a long time, and then sadly found that the only thing he can get now is the imperial examination achievements that he once despised the most.

He was proud of his talent, and once said with a smile: "It's like an orange, sour and hard." Therefore, even though he won the exam, he never took part in the examination, and this matter was widely circulated.

But his talent can't be shown at all in the current embarrassment, the only thing he has is the identity of "juzi".

"Huh?" Zhu Gaoxuan raised his eyebrows slightly.

Juren, also known as Juzi, and those who take the mid-level examination in the township examination are Juren, also known as Dachunyuan.Winning Juren is called "fajie" and "fafa".It is customary for Juren to be commonly called "Master", and elegantly known as Xiaolian.

The so-called township examination does not refer to the examination in the township, but the unified examination at the provincial level.The rural examination is only once every three years, and it is held every year of Zi, Wu, Mao and You, usually in August, so it is also called "Qiu Wei".Those admitted in the township examination are called Juren, and the No. 1 candidate is called Jieyuan.Juren can go to Beijing to take part in the examination in the second year.

"The Scholars" made "Fan Jin Zhongju" a joke, and he went crazy with joy when he won a Juren.As everyone knows, this is taken out of context. If a candidate does not want to participate in the general examination, he can directly report to the local yamen and be awarded an official position. Generally, it is the county magistrate who starts, and Fan Jin finally sat in the position of the fourth-rank official as the Tongzheng envoy. Who is not crazy?

The number of applicants varies from province to province. There are more than a hundred in large provinces, and seven to eighty or forty to fifty in medium and small provinces. There is always a fixed number and cannot be increased or decreased arbitrarily. It is roughly based on the population, property, wealth, etc. of a province. Sure.

From a military point of view, Fujian is an indisputable place for military strategists, but it is a province with a large imperial examination.The 300 years of the Song Dynasty was the heyday of Fujian's imperial examinations. The Jinshi in Fujian alone accounted for a quarter of the country. During the Song Xiaozong period, there was even a record that four consecutive champions were Fujianese.

In the Ming Dynasty, the Jinshi in Fujian only retreated to the fifth place in the country, ranking behind South Zhili, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, and North Zhili.

Juren from Fujian has a lot of gold.But what makes Zhu Gaoxuan suspicious is that this sloppy beggar in front of him is really Juren?
Can a person be mixed up like this?

Sensing the questioning eyes, the young man quickly said: "You can check it out, my name is Su Wu, I am from Fuzhou, Fujian, and I was elected in the ninth year of Yongle!"

Zhu Gaoxuan rubbed his chin, wondering what he was thinking about.

Lu Chaoyang reminded in a low voice: "My lord, I've grown up so much, I've never seen such a miserly juren, I'm afraid I'm not pretending to be a name?"

Zhu Gaoxuan frowned and said: "It's not very likely. Pretending to be a juror is easy to be imprisoned or beheaded. There are many officials in Fujian who have been promoted to officials in the capital. It's easy to find out. Dare to pretend to be a juggernaut in Jinling City is pure death. I don't think he has So stupid."

Although Lu Chaoyang didn't read much, he just thought it made sense.

To be precise, as long as it is what my prince said, it must be reasonable, at least Lu Chaoyang thinks so.

"Fuzhou... surnamed Su..." Zhu Gaoxuan frowned slightly, "Are you from an aristocratic family?"

Su was a common surname in Guangxi, Guangdong, Fujian and northern Shandong in the Ming and Song dynasties. The surname of Su in Fuzhou, where Juren was born, has a high probability of being a descendant of an aristocratic family.

It's just that Lu Chaoyang finds it strange that this young man is so scruffy, he doesn't look like a child of a family.However... It seems that there is nothing strange about Juren being so miserable.

The young Su Wu hesitated for a moment, unwilling to answer.

Seeing that the other party did not speak, Zhu Gaoxuan turned around and wanted to leave.

He didn't have the time to waste time here, let alone a Juren, even a Jinshi, Zhu Gaoxuan didn't take it seriously.The six ministers had to listen to his orders in the Wenhua Palace, so what was a mere Juren?
"Huai'an Su!" Su Wu gritted his teeth and said, "I am the second son of Huai'an Su!"

Hearing this, the dying man's eyes widened, and he said in a hoarse voice weakly as if he was coming back to life: "It's... an illegitimate child!"

Su Wu slapped the man on the head, and said cursingly, "What time is it, are you still talking about this?!"

Zhu Gaoxuan frowned slightly: "Huai'an Su family... I haven't heard of it."

Su Wu sighed: "Xiaomenxiaohu, it's normal that you haven't heard of it."

The dying man came back to life again, and glared at Su Shi: "Damn... Damn! I, Su... Su Shi, have also been a Jinshi... Is it... a small family?"

As soon as Su Wu thought of this, he became angry: "Fuck you, your family has been squeezed out by others, how proud are you?"

It was only when Zhu Gaoxuan heard this that he suddenly realized.

It is said that "a dynasty of flowing water, a family of iron", but there are also distinctions between aristocratic families.

Once the emperor and the courtiers, every time the dynasty changes, many aristocratic families are wiped out in the chaos of war, or are liquidated by the founding emperor after the war.Among these ruined families, most of them are small and medium families, not even worthy of being called families, they can only be called big families.

The real aristocratic family, such as Yan Shenggong Kong's lineage, is still strong for thousands of years, and can still stand upright after a catastrophe. This is called an aristocratic family.If Confucianism is not destroyed, then the lineage of Confucianism will not be destroyed.When Confucianism flourishes, the Confucian family flourishes. Who will let the family have a Confucian saint ancestor.

However, the aristocratic family is not a good thing for the imperial court. It is an unstable factor. It is like an emperor in the local area, and it is difficult to implement the imperial power.

Take the lineage of the Kong family as an example. The Kong family is like Confucianism. After thousands of years of wear and tear, the dazzling Confucianism has become sour and rotten. .

Except for these real aristocratic families, most of the families are floating, established during the founding period or by chance, like a candle in the wind, unable to stand the test of time, and will be broken when a gust of wind blows.

And this "Huai'an Su family" is obviously a member who cannot stand the test of time.

It is estimated that he was squeezed out by other local families, and then disappeared. The original son, brother, now fled to Jinling City and fell into the streets, no different from a beggar.

This kind of ups and downs, most people will not be able to bear it, and become lunatics.

"It's interesting, you are lucky, I am in a good mood today."

Zhu Gaoxuan waved his hand and signaled to Lu Chaoyang, "Find a doctor for that dying man and see if he can be cured."

For him, this is just a small episode, maybe he will forget about it when he wakes up tomorrow.

Juren, put in the prefectures and counties is a big shot, and after winning the exam, he will directly glorify his ancestors.

But in front of Zhu Gaoxuan, he was just as inconspicuous as a mustard. He even dared to kill the second-rank Zuodu Yushi, let alone a desperate Juren.
