Tang Dynasty good brother

Chapter 282
Qin Hao, who was very angry, returned home and didn't go out of his way to trouble anyone. With his current status, it would be a shame to take the initiative to trouble a local snake.

Walking to the backyard, he made a slight turn and walked towards the West Wing. This West Wing is where Xiaoyun and Sun Er lived. Originally he let them live in the East Wing, but Sun Er insisted that there was no such rule. She dared not live in the east room, which made Xiaoyun feel ashamed to break the rules.

Pushing the door open and entering the room, he found that Sun Er was reading "Shangshu". Seeing that Chun Wei hadn't been around for a long time, Sun Er also put away his messy thoughts and started to review his homework wholeheartedly. Qin Hao once again felt that I realized that I really cared so little for this younger brother, that I rarely spared time to tutor him.

Seeing that it was Qin Hao who came in, Sun Er quickly put down the book, "Brother."

"Ah."

Qin Hao sat down, took a teacup from the table casually, took some fried Sanlongjing, turned around to boil water, Sun Er stood up and wanted to take the kettle, but Qin Hao stopped him with his hand and motioned him not to do it. move.

In his heart, Qin Hao didn't take Sun Er as a current person, so naturally he didn't have the reason to ask Sun Er to boil water to do the work, and he didn't lose his arms and legs.

It was late autumn, and charcoal fires were lit in the house, so it was convenient to boil water. After a while, the water was boiled. I directly brewed two cups in the teacup, and motioned Sun Er to drink it. Today he wants to have a good time with Sun Er. chatter.

"What are you going to test, Ming Jing? Or Ming Calculation?"

Sun Er lowered his head in embarrassment and said, "Brother, I want to take the Jinshi exam. I know I'm not good at it, but after all, I'm still young and I want to give it a try."

Qin Hao was not surprised at all. Sun Er usually played with such a master as Pei Xingjian and Wang Fangyi. It would be strange to say that he had no idea about the word Jinshi.

"Thirty old Mingjing, fifty young Jinshi, every time the scientific examination, Jinshi recruits as few as a few people, as many as a dozen. From the former Sui Dynasty to the present, all Jinshi are from noble families, it's not that they are admitted. Yes, the difference in background is too great. It is not easy for ordinary children from poor families to read books, and it is not easy for ordinary people to be able to read and write in their lifetime. It is not easy to be proficient in one subject. Jinshi also needs to take a test of poetry and poetry. These things have not been influenced by their ears and eyes since childhood, so it is not possible to solve problems with hard work. You and I should not be able to read before. Two years, it is really difficult to pass the Jinshi exam , even Pei Xingjian, who was born in the Pei family in Hedong, dare not try this lightly."

Qin Hao’s words are somewhat heavy-handed, but it’s also for his own good. After all, it’s no good to be ambitious. The early Tang Dynasty was no better than the Song Dynasty. After the Song Dynasty, the imperial examinations not only did not look high on the elites, but deliberately suppressed them. There are as many as two or three hundred people in the top three, and there are as many as two or three hundred people, and this is the saying of the poor. In the early Tang Dynasty, there were so many powerful families in the world, and there were so many talents. From so many people, only a few people were selected a year. People like Zhou hadn't been able to become a Jinshi before being recognized by Li Erhui's eyes, which shows how fierce the fight was.

To be honest, Sun Er is indeed very smart, but after all, the study time is too short. In his opinion, the possibility of Sun Er being admitted to Jinshi is infinitely close to zero. Even Ming Jing has little hope. Forget it, it's not too difficult for him because of his high position.

But Sun Er is also a person with ideas. Seeing what Qin Hao said, he didn't refute, but kept his head down and didn't speak, obviously wanting to try.

What Qin Hao said is not that he doesn’t understand, it’s just that when he becomes an official, he can only start as a nine-rank sesame official. Even with Qin Hao’s help, it is difficult to get promoted. Thinking about the best Pei Xingjian who played with him on weekdays is already Rank six, and Wang Fangyi is almost already a designated scholar, how can he play happily after being a rank nine sesame official?
"Actually, if you want to pursue an official career, the Green Gang is a good choice, especially the Chang'an Green Gang, you have helped me a lot. Now that the Green Gang also has a department, it will be a matter of time before it becomes a yamen. You If you want, I can help you find a position as the head of the hall, and directly take the military position of a captain. Nowadays, the distinction between civil and military in our Tang Dynasty is not obvious, and it is easy to transfer. Isn’t Pei Xingjian the county magistrate who transferred from the military position? It is not very dangerous to develop into a navy, which is mainly responsible for some luggage transportation work."

Sun Er was taken aback for a moment, and slightly surprised: "Me? I have no one, no power, and no money. How can I be the head of the hall?"

Qin Hao curled his lips and said: "Is my assistant not as valuable as a hall master? Just wait, the sender will come soon, the key is what you think, whether you want to take the exam or just listen to my arrangement ?”

Hearing this, Sun Er lowered his head again. His family knows his own affairs, and he is not that kind of material at all to be a military officer. Besides, the Green Gang is not a serious system after all, and there is almost no chance of making meritorious deeds. There is no chance of promotion, let alone transfer to a civil servant.

The two brothers were chatting here, and the person he was waiting for arrived, and the servants came to report that Ma Ganzhang and Yuxia Liu had arrived, and they were kneeling at the door to plead guilty.

Qin Hao nodded, then turned to Sun Er and said, "The people have arrived, I'll let them come in and have a chat, you think about it."

As he spoke, Qin Hao waved his hand, signaling to invite the two of them in.

After a while, two strong shirtless men came in with their arms bare and rattan on their backs. They knelt on the ground respectfully and let Qin Hao do what they wanted.

Qin Hao scolded with a smile: "Get up and put on your clothes, who are you going to show off in the cold weather, and plead guilty, I would rather be Lin Xiangru, and you two are worthy to compare yourself to Lianpo? I don't have the energy to beat you .”

Hearing this, the two men stood up tremblingly, and smiled embarrassingly. The reason why they were trembling was not from fright, but from the cold.

Qin Hao said to Yuxia Liu with a half-smile, "He was the one who broke the rules, and you were the one who almost died, so why did you come along with him?"

"Atonement for the Lord, the villain knew that he had a grudge against him, but chose your place to take refuge and hide from disasters, and caused trouble for you. He really deserves to die."

Qin Hao took a sip of tea with a smile, and said softly: "It's still self-aware, yes, sensible, let's keep this life."

"Thank you, Lord."

As he said that, Yu Xia Liu knocked his head on the ground, making Qin Hao frowned tightly, because the bastard knocked too hard, and the blood came out, making his floor tiles dirty a lot .

Turning his head, he looked at Ma Gan Zhang with a half-smile, and said with a smile: "Master Zhang, oh no, you should be called General Zhang now, I heard that you are now the seat of Chang'an, right? I am really just a commoner now, and I won’t even be the leader of the Qing Gang for long, or... you will be?"
