Rebirth of Tang Dynasty as a dad

"Brother-in-law, where do you want to go? I don't take the scientific examination, why buy answers?

And even if I participate, I will become a seller in order to make money. I can't buy answers in large quantities, right? " Li Chengqian felt that his IQ had been lowered.

Du Shaoqing said awkwardly: "Then why do you ask such a question? Besides those candidates who are eager for quick success, who else would buy this?"

"Which part of the examinee am I talking about! Guess which part it is?" Li Chengqian said speechlessly.

"How do you guess? Candidates are divided into out-of-town candidates and local ones. Could it be that the local ones don't buy the out-of-town ones?" Du Shaoqing still didn't guess.

Li Chengqian's head was full of black lines, and he reached out his hand to stop his brother-in-law's nagging, "Forget it, forget it, I shouldn't let you guess, just tell you how good it is.

No one expected that most of the candidates who bought the answers were children of Qiwang with five surnames. "

How is this possible?

This result surprised Du Shaoqing, probably no one would have thought of it.

"That's right, father is also so surprised and puzzled. They were the ones who leaked the secret, and they were the ones who bought the victim in the end. This is really shooting themselves in the foot." Li Chengqian mocked.

Du Shaoqing still couldn't understand, "The scandal of leaking secrets started before the exam started, which means they wanted to expose me at that time. If I was successfully brought down, then the exam paper would be useless regardless of its authenticity.

The exam will be postponed, the exam questions will be issued separately, there is no reason for them to buy it”

Li Chengqian pushed Du Shaoqing, who was pacing back and forth, back on the chair and explained: "We investigated later.

First, they didn't expect that you and your father jointly confirmed that the test paper was fake, and stabilized your position.

They didn't even expect that you would do the opposite and counter the other party with fakes.

Second, their actions, such as wanting to suppress you even if they ruined the imperial examinations, are not tolerated by the court, so they dare not be too blatant, so they dare not speak out to the clansmen, which will easily fall into the trap. "

Du Shaoqing nodded in agreement and said, "That's right, even Li Jingxuan and Li Jingxin don't know about the leakage of the test questions. It can be seen that they are very strict about it."

Li Chengqian shook his finger, "It's not over yet, the most important thing is the third, and that is the price. The price of ten taels has directly discouraged countless candidates."

What? ? ?No way, can there be any reason for such nonsense?

Li Chengqian spread his hands and said affirmatively: "In fact, it is true. For an ordinary family, ten taels of silver is a year's income, and it may not necessarily be there.

It is rare for poor candidates from other places to have a few taels of silver for food and lodging.

So those who can afford this, except for more local candidates, belong to those from aristocratic families with better backgrounds.

Brother-in-law, you didn't mean to interrupt the conversation, isn't the price of ten taels a good idea? "

What is good?

Du Shaoqing had black lines on his face, "I don't have that much time to spare. I didn't come up with the idea of ​​selling the answers. It was all facilitated by the enemy, and the price was set by others."

Now it was Li Chengqian's turn to be dumbfounded. The prince, who was used to officialdom routines, did not expect that this time the other party's trap, how could they foolishly trap themselves?

"There is one thing wrong. The family members should have received a good education. Except for some with extremely poor conduct, how could they fight for the answer? This is not reasonable." Du Shaoqing raised a question.

The two sat down to drink tea again, and Li Chengqian patiently explained: "The so-called family members generally think that they are the famous offshoots of direct or close relatives.

In fact, no, basically as long as there are five surnames and seven names on the genealogy, regardless of wealth, status or fame, they are all descendants of the family.

The family of Qiwang with five surnames has a great career. Over the years, relying on a large number of children of the same family, they have sent talents to the imperial court, thus occupying the positions of officials in various places.

It sounds nice that they are contributing to the governance of the country, but in the real situation, the greater suspicion is that they control the real power of the government by controlling the bottom, and their hearts can be punished. "

"This is also the reason why the former Sui Dynasty created the imperial examination to select talents." Du Shaoqing agreed after taking a sip of tea.

"No one expected the result this time. A large part of the exams came from poor backgrounds and could not afford the answers, so they also escaped a catastrophe.

Among the children of the five surnames and Qiwang, there are not many sons from the direct line and the main branch, but these people are from the family of Xiaofu Jian, who have a little money and lack confidence in the exam, so they can't help being tempted to buy one after another. answer.

The final result is that nearly [-]% of the candidates from the middle and lower classes of the aristocratic family were eliminated in this year's imperial examination. The emperor personally praised you, saying that you have achieved a great victory in the first battle!

He also said that you will be responsible for the scientific examination in the future, so no one should object. "

Du Shaoqing waved his hands again and again: "Stop, stop, just this one time almost capsized, I won't answer anything."

In the medical hall, Di Renjie was concentrating on reading a book, and Xiao Xuanxuan rode a big cat roaring over, "Let's release the list, let's release the list!"

With one voice, all the brothers in the backyard of the hospital were called out.

"Really? Are you sure?

Let's go and have a look together," Chang Baicao opened the door and shouted in a panic.

Han Yueming wondered: "Didn't you say there are three more days before the rankings are released? Junior sister, you can't be playing a prank."

Xiao Xuanxuan held up the report card in her hand and showed off: "Of course not, this is just brought out by my uncle from the palace. Although it was three days after the ranking was released, the ranking has already been reported to my grandfather.

Do you want to know how you did in the exam, brothers and sisters? ? ? "

Well, listen to what this is saying, it's my uncle and my grandfather's, and he talks about the scientific research as if it's his own family business, the relationship is too hard.

Third Senior Brother Cui Hao blurted out: "Little Junior Sister, since you got the inside information, please tell us quickly, of course everyone"

Before he finished speaking, Cui Hao found that the second senior brother Han Yueming was giving him winks, and the senior brother Di Renjie had already turned his head away, so he was very puzzled.

"Of course how about it, third senior brother?

All of you are obedient, don't wink indiscriminately! "Xiao Xuanxuan glared fiercely at the others.

Seeing this situation, a flash of lightning flashed in Cui Hao's mind, recalling the days when he was an apprentice in the medical center, he quickly changed his words and said: "Of course I don't want to, the list will be released in three days, it's the same whether it's early or late, and we don't care about it." Urgent in these two days.

And everything is a foregone conclusion after leaving the examination room, the ranking is not important, the master often said, the most important thing is to participate! "

"That's right, what the third brother and the third brother said is very true, we are not in a hurry, not in a hurry," the other people echoed with a sigh of relief.

You, how can you not be in a hurry?

"Okay, I knew that the third senior brother would not be able to learn well with you guys. Wait, wait until I go back and make two medicines, and I must treat you well." Xiao Xuanxuan turned around and rode on the tiger in a huff. , going out.

"What??? Hey, little junior sister, come back quickly, everything is negotiable"

No matter how everyone shouted, Xiao Xuanxuan disappeared behind the screen wall in a blink of an eye without turning her head.

Cui Hao tentatively asked: "What happened just now? Why are you all giving me winks?"

Han Yueming said with a bitter face: "Third Junior Brother, you don't know if you haven't been here for the past two years. As the Junior Sister grows up, her playfulness has not diminished at all. She always tries to punish us in different ways, and everyone is worried every day. "

Chang Baicao nodded and said: "Once you said you wanted to know, then you would be forced to agree to one after another or even endless weird conditions from my junior sister."

In a word, it is dead! "
