Chapter 460 How can there be any recommendation in the imperial examination
Tang Yu thought about it carefully and suddenly laughed, "According to your standards, a group of people will have to be eliminated in the first test, but this is good, lest everyone thinks that the imperial examination is a joke!"
The two discussed it for a while, and when they came to their senses, it was almost dark.
Shen Yi left Tang Yu at home for the night.
Tang Yu shook his head, "I have to go back to the county office to serve the sixth prince. I must make sure that the master is comfortable. This is related to my future!"
Shen Yi was stunned for a moment and patted his head in annoyance, "I haven't asked you yet, what's your situation now?"
Tang Yu gave a mysterious chuckle and whispered in Shen Yi's ear: "Originally, I was an inconspicuous eighth-rank official in the imperial capital. This time, the sixth prince recommended me to the emperor. If the errand is done, , you can be promoted to the seventh rank when you return to the imperial capital!
There is another thing. After the imperial examination, the Sixth Prince wants to go to Shenjiazhuang, so you should be prepared. ”
Shen Yi realized, "It seems that the concubine is very favored."
This is Shen Yi's most intuitive feeling.
Tang Yu clicked his tongue and said: "It's not that I am favored very much, but I am favored by thousands of people! Not only the six princes, but also the Queen Mother in the palace are favored. The emperor also has constant gifts. I was thinking before that with the concubine's current status, if anything happens It would be troublesome to have a concubine.
Unexpectedly, after such a long time, the sixth prince refused to marry the main concubine. If the concubine's baby is a son, even if the sixth prince's concubine really comes, no one will be afraid. No one can shake her status! ”
The two chatted for a while, and Tang Yu almost told Shen Yi everything about the imperial capital.
The next day, the county government issued an order for the preliminary examination of the imperial examination, and even included the assessment content.
The people who had been watching the imperial examination gathered around the city gate and kept asking what was written on it.
There are many people who have signed up here.
Li's forehead was full of black lines, "I can't even read but I still have the nerve to apply! Listen up! The first test is for all those who apply for the imperial examination. The assessment content is basic knowledge such as writing big characters, hundreds of surnames, etc. Those who are eliminated in the first test , cannot take the imperial examination
The preliminary examination is the responsibility of each town official. If someone cheats and passes the test and is discovered during the imperial examination, he will be questioned together with the town official! ”
Liu Tiechui's head was pounding when he received the decree.
Because several groups of relatives and friends have come to his house, and they all come to give him gifts to cheer him up.
Ma Yujie looked at those good things and was very happy, but her face remained calm and she greeted everyone politely.
After the guests left, she immediately ran back to the backyard to find Liu Tiechui, "You said you could escape the first grade of junior high school and the fifteenth grade? I have dismissed all these people today, and there will be another wave tomorrow."
Liu Tiechui's face was very ugly, "You confiscate other people's things!"
Ma Yujie paused and was not very happy, "I confiscated it, and they didn't take it away, so I just left it there! Some relatives have to give it to me, so if I say it's okay, I just turn a blind eye and let it go." That’s it.”
Liu Tiechui sneered: "Then I, the town official, have reached the end, right?"
Ma Yujie was startled and murmured in a low voice, "As for that! It's just a formality. When the time comes, the county government will have the final say! With your friendship with Shen Yi, can he still be serious with you?"
"Bah! This is a time to talk about friendship! What kind of friendship? My friendship with Shen Yi is not even as close as the friendship between your brother and Shen Yi. Do you think your brother and sister-in-law have come to seek a relationship with us?
< br>
That is to say, those people who don’t know four or six will go around trying to make trouble. Let me tell you, return the things to me quickly. If you mess up a big mess, I have to deal with it. I don’t want to be embarrassed! ”
Liu Tiechui warned Ma Yujie unhappily. Ma Yujie was furious, but she didn't do anything wrong. After returning all the things, she angrily went back to Ma's house to complain to Ma Xingteng and Bai Rong.
"Back then, when Liu Tiechui had nothing, I recognized him. I carried the pressure of the Ma family and silently supported him from behind. Now, I am fine. I think I am ignorant! Why am I ignorant? Isn't it just a failure of the imperial examination? ? What's so great!
Liu Tiechui looked down on his relatives when he became a town official? At best, it sounds selfless; at worst, it sounds selfish, with no regard for family ties! ”
Ma Xingteng and Bai Rong listened for a long time and finally understood the crux of the matter.
Bai Rong slowly lowered her head and refused to comment.
Ma Xingteng had a headache and said: "Sister, if you have time to worry about others, why not think about your own children? Don't forget, my brother-in-law and children can also take the imperial examination.
My brother-in-law is currently the lowest-ranking town official. If he passes the exam, he can still be promoted. Isn’t it better than living in a small millstone town? Even my nephew is the same. Have you never thought about their future? ”
Bai Rong echoed: "My husband has invited a gentleman from Pingzhou to teach the children, and even my husband is studying hard."
Seeing that Ma Yujie was unmoved, Ma Xingteng shook his head helplessly, "Brother-in-law has already worked hard enough. He probably wants to take the exam himself, but he doesn't have time, so don't make things worse for him."
Ma Yujie failed to get the support of her mother's family, and she felt a little depressed, so she returned to the Liu family in low spirits.
After thinking about it, she called her two sons over and told her, "You must perform well in this imperial examination and try to pass all of them! If you meet the officials' children, remember to have a good relationship with them and don't make enemies with them." .”

Ma Yujie's two sons are almost adults and are currently talking about getting married. If they can get good grades in the exam, it will be the icing on the cake.
As for becoming an official in the imperial examination, she didn't pay much attention to it.
In her heart, being an official still requires recommendation. If she has the spare time to study, she might as well let Liu Tiechui establish a good relationship with the county magistrate. Whether her son can become an official is a matter of words.
The two agreed respectfully.
The day of the first test arrived.
The village chiefs of each village led the villagers from their own villages to the town.
The usually busiest market in Millstone Town was transformed into a preliminary pilot project.
Tables and stools were lined up in a row under the bright sun, with wooden partitions in the middle to prevent candidates from cheating.
Su Tai came with Shen Congrong, stretched her neck and searched for a long time before she found Shen Congyu sitting on Xue Xiang's neck, and hurried over to say hello.
Xue Xiang put the child down and said seriously: "Mrs. Shen, after the preliminary test is over, Congyu will have to go back with me to practice martial arts. I hope you will forgive me."
Su Tai was flattered and hurriedly thanked, "It's an honor for Mr. Xue to be willing to discipline the boy. I asked the servants in the family to make some food that you like. Please don't dislike it."
Chi Sanhua and Chi Zhaodi quickly put down the heavy burdens on their backs.
Xue Xiang's mouth twitched slightly when he saw the thing, and he had to solemnly thank Su Tai.
Shen Congyu raised his head to see the adults exchanging greetings. His little mouth was so pouty that he could hang an oil can, "Mom! Can I go home with you after I finish the exam?"
"No!" Xue Xiang and Su Tai refused in unison.
Xue Xiang sneered and said: "Not only can you not go back, you also have to give me a good test. You know, I have vouched for them in front of them. If you fail to do well in the test and make me embarrassed, I will let you stand on the plum blossom pile for a month."< br>
