I have been happily embarking on a journey to the heavens since childhood 327 I am a man of culture, you know it
As Hua Lan got married, the Sheng family suddenly became much quieter.
Ru Lan and Mo Lan, who originally liked to quarrel, became much more silent.
Although sometimes they compete with each other on some small things, generally speaking, they are still controlled within a small range, at least there will be no more embarrassing situations like before.
Minglan is very happy to see such a peaceful situation between the two sisters.
Because this way she won’t be in the middle.
The only one who is a little troubled is the young man Qi Heng. Recently, he has been pestering her after class, saying that he wants to go fishing with her.
Minglan was so scared that she dared not touch the fishing rod again recently.
Are you kidding
Who doesn’t know that the young father-in-law and the second brother are about to take the civil examination.
If I fail the exam, your Qi family will put a shit basin on my head
Dad is eager to draw a clear line with your family.
I, the sixth child of the Sheng family, just don’t look very smart, but I know very well.
In this era, the imperial examination was more important than the college entrance examination in later generations.
Those who do well in the exam can be officials, those who do average in the exam can be officials, and even those who do not do well in the exam can become a private tutor in the village and be respected even if they have a little knowledge.
Although Minglan is a woman, she also knows the importance of the examination.
In ancient times, titles could be hereditary, but official positions could not. Lu Ze was an official now, but the sons of the family still had to rely on their own ability to take the imperial examinations to obtain official positions. Otherwise, the prosperity of the Sheng family would only depend on this. One or two generations.
Of course, Lu Ze's promotion speed in the officialdom is fast enough, and it is not impossible to create a second-generation official.
Soon, it was the day when Changbai and Qi Heng took part in the provincial examination.
At this time, Gu Tingye, who was far away at Bailudong Academy, also participated in the examination. Lu Ze had vaguely hinted to the Ningyuan Marquis that it would be enough for Gu Erlang to study at the Shengjia School to gain fame.
But in the end, Gu Tingye followed the original plot and went to Bailudong Book School in Jiangxi.
I just don’t know if this guy is acquainted with Zhu Manniang or not.
The rural examination is held in the capital of each province. There are three examinations, namely the Four Books and Five Classics, Ce Wen, and Poems. Each examination lasts three days.
The provincial examination was completely different from the previous county examination, government examination, and college examination. It really required you to shed a layer of your skin. Nine days later, the Sheng family saw Chang Bai walking out with a blue face. The eldest lady felt very distressed.
“Oh my god, this provincial examination is so torturous.”
“Wouldn’t it be more life-threatening to have the joint examination and the palace examination later?”
< p>Fortunately, the hard work paid off.The results were released a few days after the exam. Changbai’s final ranking was thirteenth, which was a very good result.
Zhuang Xuexue laughed heartily when he heard Changbai's achievements, and immediately asked Minglan to go fishing in the lotus pond in the mansion. He had to drink two large bowls of delicious fish soup to celebrate.
Minglan nodded cheerfully and went to get her fishing rod and basket.
Qi Heng’s results rank around the top 100 in the ranking.
This position seems to be quite satisfactory, but for a child of a powerful prince's family like him, such achievements are already outstanding.
Although there are many children from the Duke's family who become officials, most of them are those who inherited the title or later donated the official position. Very few people get into the exam by relying on their own efforts. He became one of the outstanding representatives of Prince Sun in Bianjing City.
It is said that after the results were released, there was an endless stream of people going to the Duke of Qi’s house to propose marriage.
The Qi family happily refused first, and then held a banquet for most of the city. The firecrackers at the door alone set off hundreds of taels of silver, and they also carried several baskets of white flour steamed buns for charity. For the poor, the fireworks are brilliant at night, and they all know that the young master of the Qi family has won the lottery.
The next day, Duke Qi and Princess Ning brought their newly minted son to the Sheng Mansion to communicate with each other.
This is also the first time that people from the Sheng family have seen the Duke of Qi.
The Duke's appearance is not very elegant, but he has an aura of nobility, and the most important thing is that the Duke is much easier to talk to than the princess.
The Sheng family naturally received many gifts.
The princess saw the three daughters of the Sheng family standing neatly behind the eldest lady, with a look of satisfaction in her eyes.
It’s just that the young master is still looking at Minglan from time to time, but the latter simply doesn’t look away, looking very dignified.
Princess Pingning, who noticed this scene, smiled softly. She naturally learned from the servants that her son had a good temper with Xiaoliu of the Sheng family, but she didn't take it to heart. Because this Sheng Xiaoliu has a round face, he is just a child.
If there was even the slightest spark between Mo Lan or Ru Lan and the young father-in-law, she would definitely not be able to sit still.
“It’s really a great advantage for Shanda people to invite Mr. Zhuang to my Yuanruo family. These days, the children are causing a lot of trouble in the house, and the old lady is taking great pains to take care of them. I have a lot of regrets here. I'm afraid that I'll miss my brother from studying."
Qi Guogong always had a warm smile on his face.
The eldest lady replied politely, "There is no need to bother Bu Nao. My family is lucky to have such an outstanding person as my young master studying with me."
Princess Pingning held her hairpin on her temples and glanced at Changbai, with a look of satisfaction in her eyes.
"It is true that it would be better if your parents, Bai Youyuan, study together."
Princess Pingning said this very politely, but her expression could not hide the emotion. Arrogant, as if Qi Heng's study in Sheng Mansion gave them great face, the smile on the lady's face gradually faded when she heard these words.
Although she is happyHuan fawns over these wealthy people, but that doesn't mean she accepts that they can pull her down.
Even if you are Princess Pingning
When it comes to his own son and daughter, Wang Ruofu will not even recognize the King of Heaven
And Lu At this time, Ze suddenly smiled and said, "In the final analysis, studying depends on your own ability. After the provincial examination, there will be the provincial examination and the palace examination. Although Changbai did well in the examination this time, you must not slack off."
“Born is only one aspect.”
“Liu Xiang during the Taizu period of our dynasty was born in a bitter cold, but even so, Liu Xiang still left a strong mark in the history books.”
Lu Ze was transferred to the Jiying Palace to compile and compile, so he was very familiar with the history books of the dynasty. His brain capacity was now ridiculously large, and absolutely no one could cite the classics. Comparable.
As soon as Lu Ze said these words, the smile on the face of Qi Guogong opposite him suddenly became brighter.
Because this Prime Minister Liu from the Taizu period was the grandfather of the Duke in front of him.
"Hahahaha."
"I really admire Shanda people for their profound knowledge."
"Yuan Ruo, you have to remember that although my family is from a good background , but you also need to work hard."
"Ji Ren is just a person."
Lu Ze was keenly aware that the princess's expression was not good.
He instantly became very happy.
You, the princess, still want to come to my house to disgust me
