Pingnan Prince's Mansion by Men
Chapter 3 is up!
Give her mother-in-law's family a rotten thing and drive her out of the palace, and then pick two suitable ones for Boy He, no, pick four.
However, Aunt Hai has already told Zhao Xiyi in advance that she doesn't want the manpower given by her wife, it's too "nice", and her son can't afford it. Anyway, her elder brother picked two suitable ones outside, and she will write to ask her to send them over tomorrow. .
But it was agreed that he was not a slave, but a master of the two martial arts. He was a little injured and retired from the army. The monthly money was five taels of silver. Yes, I just want the child to be safe and sound! I won’t be picked up and kicked around.”
Zhao Xiyi, who was crying, was heartbroken, and as soon as her head got hot, she nodded in agreement.
The third wife quit: "This young master of my own family, how can he use the principles of outsiders? There are so many families in the house who have children, and you still can't pick out two suitable ones?"
"It's not that you can't pick it out, but you picked it, no one can trust it!" Zhao Xiyi flicked his sleeves: "I just came to inform you, and the rest has nothing to do with you."
After finishing speaking, she left, and the angry third wife tore off several handkerchiefs. Dong Rui's family advised her: "The future will be long."
"He's said that about me, what else do I have to do?" The third wife burst into tears: "For a little bastard, he even said this, don't believe me? I don't care! I It's the mistress of the third room!"
"Ma'am, there's no way. It's strange that this matter was broken by the master himself. Although Huo Saner is a good drinker and gambler, he is not so drunk. I heard that he can't stop when he is trapped." Well." What Dong Rui's family loves most is Cui Zhu, who is Huo San'er's wife, and now she has also eaten Gu Luo'er, and they have been sold out together.
In truth, Cuizhu is still her niece from afar.
Of course Huo San'er couldn't wake up from drinking, and Hou Dabao was reporting the news to Zhao Renhe and the others.
Still in the study, everyone was having a meeting together.
Just listen to Hou Dabao talking happily there: "The wine smells fragrant, but it is the first one. It is said that this wine has a long taste, but it has a lot of stamina. I also mixed a lot of Erguotou, a spirit from the north, into it. Saying that there are four of them, even four tigers can be defeated by him."
It caused everyone to burst into laughter. After laughing, Zhao Renhe began to summarize: "Our plan lasted five months, and it ended one month earlier than the expected half a year. When it comes to Little Tail, there must be no trace left at the end. In addition, we have completed this task well, but there is a little shortcoming, let's discuss it!"
135 Imperial Examination, Imperial Examination
135 Imperial Examination, Imperial Examination
Work summary, to cultivate this habit.
Everyone talked about what they thought was insufficient, and the meeting ended after a long discussion. Without outsiders, they felt free.
But these five months of posturing were not in vain, at least they were more mature.
Zhao Renhe picked up the two Chang Sui who hooked up with him to play and didn't study, and he recited the book for a few days and felt that he was very familiar with it. Just after school, he asked Uncle You Tang: "Uncle Tang, you study all day, and you will be tested during the exam." what?"
He only vaguely knew the number of imperial examinations, but he was not specific, and the imperial examinations were different from generation to generation.
"You want to know?" Zhao You looked at the concubine nephew who was born in the direct line of the royal family.
"Yeah!" Zhao Renhe nodded, "I really want to know."
"It's the "Four Books" exam."
Zhao Renhe blinked: "I know it's "Four Books", that is, Four Books and Five Classics."
"You still know the Five Classics?" Zhao You patted his head: "Very good."
"How do we take the test? Is it enough to memorize the Four Books and Five Classics? Isn't it just a test for memorization?" Zhao Renhe asked without hesitation, relying on his own innocence: "Or writing? Right? Poetry?"
Zhao You was amused by his words: "Of course not. In addition to reciting the article, it also needs to be explained, and the article should be explained."
"What kind of article do you explain?" Zhao Renhe regarded himself as a blue cat, because of "Three Thousand Questions about Naughty Blue Cats".
Zhao You paid some attention to this nephew. After all, he is the youngest child in the palace, and he is said to be quite favored. He simply hugged him, sat on a chair, took out a pen to give him a detailed explanation, and wrote down the county test, Government Examination, Academy Examination, Township Examination, General Examination, Palace Examination.
Zhao Renhe is no stranger to the word "examination". Count it, okay, you have to take at least six major exams to get ahead.
In his previous life, he only had three big exams for junior high school, high school, and college entrance examinations, and at most two postgraduate exams. These days, he is actually on par with a certain country with a big exam. Compared with this, even a scholar who takes the Chinese language exam in modern times takes the exam. but.
As a result, this was not over yet. Zhao You wrote the words "shengyuan", "giansheng", "juren", "jinshi" and so on, and explained to Zhao Renhe: "a scholar has to pass the three tests of the county, the government and the hospital. It's called "Ask Head", and the top ones get four taels of silver every year, and they are called Linsheng. No one cares about the money, it's just a nice name. Those who have been admitted to the county school are called Shengyuan. The county government has a one-year trial Once, and twice in three years. The exams are stereotyped essays, quiz poems, classics, rhymes...these things you still have to learn...you have to take five exams..."
Zhao Renhe's face turned green when he heard it!
Then he asked again: "Is it because the exam was very hard? I was locked in a small dark room for three to five days?"
"Where is it? It's the previous court." Zhao You laughed: "Although the exams of my court have continued the rules of the previous court, the examination room has been renovated and is much better than the previous court."
"That's still going to take several days!" What Zhao Renhe cared about was the time and difficulty of the exam, not the location, where can't he write a word?
"The three-day exam is a general exam. At least the conditions are better than those of the previous dynasty. You have to take a shower to enter."
Zhao Renhe had a black line on his face: "Oh, that's a good thing..."
Co-authored with that time-traveling senior and thought of such a trick?
I have to take a shower before entering the examination room, tsk tsk tsk!
While Zhao You was talking, he recalled a joke made by a classmate in the academy: "Scholars enter the palace, there are seven similarities: when they first entered, they looked like beggars carrying a basket with white feet. When they were called, officials and officials scolded them like prisoners. When it returns to the house, the hole stretches its head, and the house exposes its feet, like a cold bee at the end of autumn. When it comes out, its expression is dazed, the sky and the earth are different colors, like a sick bird out of the cage. Looking at the newspaper, the plants and trees are frightened, dreaming It’s also illusion. When you achieve your ambition, you will instantly build a pavilion; if you lose your ambition, your bones will rot in an instant. At this moment, it’s difficult to sit and walk, and it’s like being kidnapped. Tiaowuwu, his expression suddenly changed at this time, as if he was dead, he was like a baited poisonous fly, and he didn't even notice it. He was discouraged at the beginning, and he scolded Si Heng for his lack of eyes and pen and ink, and he was bound to raise his desk Burn everything up; burn it endlessly, and step on it; step on it endlessly, and throw it into the turbid stream. From then on, it will be scattered into the mountain, facing the stone wall, and then someone will come to me with the words "Qifu" and "taste" , I will fight to chase after it. No matter what the day is getting farther away, the spirit is getting flatter, and the skills are getting itchy again, so it is like a dove with a broken egg. It has to carry a wood to build a nest, and hug it again..."
Why wasn't it the case when he entered the arena back then?
I'm used to seeing many people who are usually polite and polite lose their temper, and some go crazy.
Zhao Renhe was also terrified when he heard it, this is much more ruthless than the college entrance examination!
Each session of the college entrance examination is calculated by the hour, and you can go home after the exam.
Although it was said that the college entrance examination took several days, but he was not locked in a small black room and not allowed to leave?
Then the foundation created by the predecessors is also a feudal society. Why didn't he reform the imperial examination?What is the use of light farming?If you spend your whole life digging in the soil, what else can you do other than make enough to eat?Can't help but sea, you can also develop sea trade?
Just like their family, all the white-faced scholars who are stuck sitting in the study and do not move, who were spoiled and spoiled since childhood, can they endure that hardship?
Moreover, he is a concubine, and it is a default thing for his aunt to suppress the concubine.
As long as you don't do it too much, no one will really care about it. Last time he was out of breath, so he gave him the first time.
Look at this small body, commuting by car every day, how many people have to faint because of lack of physical strength when they really have to take the exam?
Zhao You also looked at Zhao Renhe worriedly: "You need to take good care of your body, because the imperial examination is not only about essays, but also about the six arts of a gentleman. This is the rule set by the founding emperor. A person must be able to run 3000 meters. To be able to draw a bow and shoot an arrow well, at worst you have to be able to ride a horse yourself. Although it won’t make you charge into battle, but my Dashun Dynasty started from the chaos of war, so I can’t forget my roots. There is no lack of physical fitness!"
Zhao Renhe sighed in his heart, isn't it just sports?The seniors didn't understand it, and they became physically fit.
But it is also linked to the six arts of a gentleman, which is not bad. I know to find a reason, otherwise those bookworms who don't work hard in their limbs and don't distinguish between grains and grains for no reason may not follow suit.
Zhao You came back to his senses, seeing the contemplative expression of his nephew in his arms, he couldn't help laughing out: "That's what they said, you just study hard, you are still young, you should run and dance every day to take care of yourself Your body is important. When you get older and go to the academy, you will have to participate in various activities, such as riding a horse and shooting arrows. It is enough to make your body strong, even if you want to do it for an official. Zai, that’s also a civil servant, you won’t be allowed to go to the battlefield with a sword, if even the civil servants have to put on armor, unless it’s a battle to destroy the country.”
This child is quite obedient, and he was born as a concubine. If his aunt treats him like that, he can still not say anything bad about his aunt, she is a good child.
Alas, it's a pity, it's not a direct descendant.
"My nephew understands." Zhao Renhe nodded hastily: "Only one who endures hardships can become a master. Those who can endure hardships will endure hardships for a while, and those who can't endure hardships will endure hardships for a lifetime! Don't be afraid of difficulties at this time!"
"That's quite reasonable!" Zhao You touched his head affectionately: "Now that you understand, it's even better. A good man has his ambitions everywhere, and the backyard is where women are. Don't use it there." Too much thought, you know?"
Zhao Renhe nodded, but after returning, he began to study desperately again, especially the memorization. He not only memorized, but also copied the books.
After the twelfth lunar month, the Chinese New Year was less than a month away. While Zhao Renhe was studying hard, he finally lost a tooth while having a snack at noon one day.
Since then, he has had a cup of big bone soup for two meals a day, and the snacks he used in between are all soft. The beef jerky and small fish he used to eat are all gone, and they have been changed to soft osmanthus. Cake, walnut cake, Huaihua cake and the like.
Uncle sent some gifts, saying that the formalities had started over there, and after the new year, on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, he would come to the palace to be Zhao Renhe's master of martial arts.
"Don't you always follow?" Aunt Hai said, "I don't want my wife to have another chance to put someone beside my son."
"No, she failed to arrange for both of them, and I have already made an agreement with the clerk. When Zhang San and Li Si come, I will follow my nephew. One, in the future the nephew will build a family for the two of them, raise two more children, and work together!" Before the person arranged by Hai Fulong arrived, he had already thought about the future arrangements in advance: "The other frequent tasks, The two of them have also served concurrently, and when the nephew grows up, the six boys around him will also grow up, enough to protect him!"
The matter is settled here, only knowing that the little nephew has lost his teeth, and the unscrupulous uncle must tease Zhao Renhe.
Listening to him speak with a leaky mouth, he smiled as soon as he opened his mouth.
The angry Zhao Renhe closed his mouth tightly and stared at his uncle with big eyes, thinking he was an angry bird.
When she saw her uncle and nephew, she knew they were messing around, so Aunt Hai was helpless, so she went to cook two dishes for her eldest brother, had lunch with her son, and sent him away.
During Laba, there was good news from the concubine, that Zhao Hai was betrothed, and the betrothed was the girl from Prince Zhengxi's mansion, the third daughter of King Zhengxi, who was born in the first line, and also the rarest daughter. After passing the horoscope, the dowry has already been paid, and she will be married in the next year.
This is the first person of their "water generation" to marry a wife.
Moreover, he is the grandson of the eldest son, the future son, the future prince, and the male master of the palace. He can marry a wife and have children, which means that the palace can be passed on. Naturally, he is very happy.
The eldest son of the second room, Zhao Pai, also has an engagement partner, who seems to be a girl from the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion.
When it was the third bedroom, the third wife wanted to find a girl from the palace, but there was none!
"How could there be no one?" The third wife was unconvinced: "Both the first room and the second room are destined to be girls from the palace, so they will disappear when the third room comes?"
Zhao Xiyi looked at her coldly: "What's the matter with the third house? Qing'er doesn't even have any fame, and she's not a direct descendant. How can she propose marriage? Is it the grandson of King Pingnan? That's also the grandson of a concubine's son, He is still white, how can he get it? The second room is at least a direct descendant, and Zhao Pai is already a scholar, so at least he can say it and bring it up!"
Zhao Pai, a scholar, also took the exam hard. Taking advantage of the gap between filial piety and not consecutive filial piety, he seized the time to take the exam. Although his ranking was not very high, and he was not the top of the list, he was a scholar after all. shot.
No need for Zhao Hai, he is the eldest son, and he can be a stable son without fame and fame, and then become King Pingnan.
The third room is not enough, Zhao Xiyi herself is a concubine, has no mother, and has such a notorious wife, who will marry a girl in the future, and she will not be angry with her mother-in-law?
And there is a grandma on the top, the two layers of mother-in-law are suppressed, and the average daughter's family can't stand this.
The three elder brothers in the fourth room are all around the same age, and they will have to see each other in two years.
As for Zhao Wen of the fifth room, he is still young, so he will not be considered for the time being.
"Then let Qing'er take the exam, and let Ze'er take the exam!" The third wife said a little jealously: "My sons are all good boys, they are all outstanding, and they are no worse than anyone else's."
"Then let the child take the exam!" Zhao Xiyi felt that he couldn't communicate with his wife, and the imperial examination was so easy, so why did he bother.
Flicking his sleeves, he went to the study room, where there was a beautiful Xilan girl, much better than this yellow-faced woman.
After Laba, the school will be closed, and it will be February [-] before writing can be started, and the door will be opened to start teaching.
It would be better not to go to school. Zhao Renhe led people to run and dance in the yard every day to exercise. He also had to read and write, and he had to write down all the things he knew, so as not to forget them after a long time.
In addition, two separate rooms were cleared out, waiting for the arrival of his Master Wu. Master, of course he had to live in a single room.
Going to work after the holidays, I wish you all... smooth work!
13611 years old!
13611 years old!
From Chang Sui to Master Wu, Zhao Xiyi didn't know what to think. He prescribed three taels a month for the two masters, and Aunt Hai gave five taels alone, which was eight taels of silver.
Zhao Renhe thought that he had to show something, so he simply added two taels to make it perfect.
He has so much family background, but it is not short of these two taels of silver.
And for the young men who have gone to school, each of them is over ten years old, and the monthly silver is five taels. It is completely fine for him to take out two taels.
At the beginning, Zhao Renhe chose No. [-] Courtyard because the front yard of No. [-] Courtyard occupies a large area, like a small martial arts arena. In fact, this row of houses is for young men who have not yet married. There is a courtyard for them to live in, and there is also a place for their families to live behind.
This row of yards has such a pattern, and the front yards are all designed as small martial arts arenas.
It's just that now all the men of the Zhao family focus on literature, and many of them go to school to get a good reputation, so that they can become officials in the future.
Not being an official can't be a white body.
Three or two generations have never touched military power, and those who were born in the first generation were even accompanied by personal guards to practice boxing, and those who were born in the concubine were basically not taught kung fu, let alone let them read military books and military equipment.
Therefore, in the front yard of an ordinary small yard, either rare flowers and plants are planted, or towering trees are planted. Tree, okay, in spring, the pear blossoms are in full bloom, like clouds, and there is an elegant fragrance, not to mention how beautiful it is.
Only Zhao Renhe's No. [-] courtyard has the original layout, which has not been changed for many years. Only straight ginkgo trees are planted at the four corners, and a peace tank is placed under the tree.
The open space in the middle is full of bluestone slabs. On the east side, there are small things that Zhao Renhe made people fiddle with, such as plum blossom piles and single-plank bridges, all of which are miniature versions, and there are various small vertical ladders, horizontal ladders, etc. I usually climb to play, and exercise my body bones by the way.
Anyway, there is no shortage of wood in the palace, and there are even skilled carpenters who can make it look very good for you with a little money.
It's just that no one taught them, so they figured it out on their own, because they were still young.
can afford to wait.
Before the new year, my uncle didn't come, but he sent two carts of New Year gifts to Aunt Hai and his nephew.
Because there is no need to observe filial piety, there is a carload of food in the two carloads of New Year gifts, ranging from Jinhua ham to beef jerky, and they are all things that can be stored for a long time.
There are also preserved pork ribs, bacon sausages, etc., as well as seaside things such as dried sea fish, eel, and salted fish.
Seeing it, Aunt Hai burst into tears, so she made a salted fish and eggplant stew for Zhao Renhe that day.
There is no fresh eggplant to eat at this time, only dried eggplant and salted fish are used. It has a unique flavor. Zhao Renhe finished three bowls of rice in one go and wanted to continue eating. Aunt Hai was so frightened that she quickly stopped: "If you like it, I will have breakfast tomorrow." Just make it for you again, but you can’t eat like this.”
"It's delicious, mother, you did a great job!" Zhao Renhe's sweet compliments made Aunt Hai feel good, and her smile trembled.
Turning around, Zhao Renhe went back to Courtyard No. [-], and called Xifeng: "Come here for some tea, the kind you can drink right away!"
"What's the matter with you?" Xi Feng beckoned to the staff, who removed the overcoat he was wearing to protect him from the cold, "Didn't you drink tea at my aunt's place?"
"Here comes the tea." Xilu brought him black tea at the right temperature.
Zhao Renhe took a big gulp after receiving it, and he breathed a sigh of relief after drinking it: "The salted fish and eggplant stew made by my aunt is delicious. I ate a little too much, and I'm starving."
"Don't you want to eat more rice?" Xidan brought him a plate of white rice cakes. There was no honey in this thing, only the fragrance of rice. Grandpa eats.
Now that he is soaked in salt, it is just right to eat this.
"I ate three big bowls." Zhao Renhe stretched out his hand and gestured: "It's delicious, but it's a bit salty."
"Salted fish and eggplant stew is a common side dish for coastal people. If you eat less like this and feel fresh, it is only one or two meals. It will be fine next time. Let's tell Aunt Hai that this is in the palace. If you do it again, soak the salted fish in water for a day and night, take it out and cook it again, it will not be so salty." Xi Bai smiled and said: "Ordinary people do this to save salt. When cooking salted fish and eggplant, you just knock off the brine on top of the salted fish, and you can also use it to marinate a salted duck egg. After the fish is soaked in water and softened, you can cook it together with the hairtail fish, and you don’t need to add salt.”
"So it's like this? I just said, Auntie's salted fish and eggplant stew is indeed salty enough." After speaking, I was happy: "I still choose salted fish to eat!"
The maids in the room were all overjoyed, and the woman who brought water in to wash him couldn't help but laugh too.
That night, Zhao Renhe filled his stomach with water and poured water several times. The next day, the small urine bucket was almost full.
For breakfast, he was so busy drinking porridge that he didn't eat a few mouthfuls of buns.
After a few days, when I ate salted fish and eggplant stew again, it was not as salty as last time. When Zhao Xiyi came to eat, Aunt Hai made him a portion. While eating, she told him about her son: " I'm also confused, this is the palace and not my hometown, the first time I made it, I stunned my son, and it was only the second time I remembered, this time I will make it for you, the salted fish is soaked, eat it Not salty anymore."
Zhao Xiyi was also very happy. Aunt Hai only talked to him about the family's gossip and interesting things in the daily life. She never caused him trouble. win his heart.
After the twelfth lunar month is the Chinese New Year.
Aunt Hai couldn't wear red herself, but she was interested in her son's wearing red, so she dressed Zhao Renhe as a red envelope.
Zhao Renhe is a male, he can go to worship the ancestors, but he is a concubine and young, so he followed Sanfang to make soy sauce.
It's just that the elder brother Zhao Qing seems to be a little thinner, so he couldn't help but put a piece of auspicious wish for his elder brother during the New Year's Eve dinner, which is actually braised chicken nuggets: "Brother, you have lost a lot of weight, eat some meat to make up for it." Make up for it."
Zhao Qing didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I'm forced by my studies, I don't have any appetite to eat."
"Is it so hard to go to school?" Zhao Renhe's eyes widened: "I don't think so?"
"You are just an elementary school. You learn nothing more than three hundred thousand, and memorize the Four Books and Five Classics again. My elder brother and I have suffered a lot. After the new year, we will take the exam. This year, let's get the scholar out first and then talk about other things!" Zhao said. Ze chewed a piece of stewed duck vigorously: "I study every day, and I am dizzy."
"I'm about to go to the academy for an exam, and I have to pass three tests!" Zhao Ze pursed his lips to scare Zhao Renhe: "The examination for a scholar has to pass three levels of examinations, that is, the strict examinations at the county, government, and road levels are divided into six grades. Only those who have passed the high level can be awarded the title of scholar, because in the previous dynasty, each court exam was taken twice every three years, and 45 people were admitted each time, with an average of 450 people per year. There are only five places in this county, which means that the current college entrance examination is the top five in the county. The founding emperor felt that the admissions were too rare, so he changed it. He expanded the number of places ten times, but at the same time, banned those who have meritorious reputation from being exempted from taxation. The only treatment is to retain the treatment of not kneeling when seeing an official. That is to say, [-] students are admitted each time, with an average of [-] students per year. Just for this reform, scholars all over the world are particularly supportive of Emperor Hongji."
"The first level of exams, the examiners like you are collectively called Tongsheng, don't think that those who take the exam are all children like you, among them there are not a few gray-haired elderly people, even middle-aged people There are quite a few of them, and some of them are so poor that they have never been admitted to the ranks of scholars in their entire lives. There are also many people who have not crossed the threshold of being a child. It is not like operas performed on stage. Scholars are scholars. It seems that being the champion is a very easy game." Zhao Qing looked like a big brother: "You, study hard, don't always be playful, or time will be wasted, and don't be an old man when you get old. Tongsheng!"
These words are a bit vicious, where is there anyone who doesn't look forward to a bright future for children?Still old?
It was a cousin at the same table, seeing that Zhao Renhe was young, he chatted with him and told him about the imperial examination.
There are only three people in the first list, the champion, the second place in the list and Tanhua, also called the top three; "Born with Jinshi", as the saying goes, a fellow Jinshi is like a wife.
It shows that the last list has no knowledge, and the tail of the crane is not accepted, and it is not very popular.
If someone gets No. 1 in the provincial examination, general examination, and palace examination (that is, Jieyuan, Huiyuan, and No. [-]), it is called "Lianzhong Sanyuan".
"Then the big brother won three yuan in a row?" Zhao Renhe pretended to be a child happily, as if he didn't care about the vicious curse that the big brother gave him just now: "In that case, I will call him brother Sanyuan from now on, ahahaha..."
For the Chinese New Year, he said such auspicious words, and no one got angry with him. Zhao Qing's complexion improved a little: "As long as you can pass the exam, let's talk about whether it is three yuan or not."
In fact, he is not sure. Over the years, he has relaxed a lot, and his husband has changed a few times, and he has not studied knowledge intensively. Besides, he stays at home all day, his mother dotes on him, and his father dotes on him. Familiar, always with the arrogance of a family, how can there be a family on the same level as the Pingnan Palace in the southern coastal area?
"Brother works hard, I'm sure I can do it." Zhao Renhe happily ate the New Year's Eve dinner: "I will marry us a well-educated sister-in-law in the future, hehehe... I will have a little nephew soon!"
"You little guy, you think too far." Zhao Qing finally gave Zhao Renhe a good face: "Here is a piece of steamed abalone for you, eat it well."
"Oh, thank you, Brother Qing." I hope you can come back as a scholar with the score of Qing University.
After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and ate the abalone. It was really a pure wild abalone, and it was quite big. It tasted delicious.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, the New Year's greetings began the next day. Zhao Renhe was the youngest in his generation, so he only received red envelopes, but no red envelopes.
Moreover, he is the youngest, and when he goes to the other four houses to pay New Year's greetings, he also receives red envelopes. Plus, Zhao Renhe has studied, and in the eyes of adults, he should understand etiquette. In the first year after that, Zhao Xiyi brought her three sons out to meet guests. Of course, there was a difference between the concubines and concubines, and Zhao Renhe was still young, so he would not be brought along when going out to meet guests.
It's just that the third house and third master who appeared in front of people is 11 years old, a young boy, and he is polite, so he is a good boy at first glance.
He doesn't have the shyness of a bastard, many people like it, and the gifts for him are very expensive.
Every night, Zhao Renhe's favorite thing is to sit on his bed and count the gifts and red envelopes that others give him.
Many people would not give such a young child jade pendants, bracelets, purses, cute purses filled with gold beans, gold scorpions, small silver ingots and other things, he just loves them. this.
Someone also gave him a lucky bean carved with jade, which is rare, and "gold has a price but jade is priceless". Those who give jade ornaments are much more expensive gifts than those who give gold and silver.
Zhao Renhe is looking forward to seeing guests every day, if he has money, he can get it!
But the third wife, Ma Jing, was angry every day because the concubine was taken out by the master to meet guests. She didn't know, it was the second son who told her that the third brother of Hanluju was brought out by his father to meet guests.
As a result, she had to bring her daughter and two concubines who were already ten years old to meet the guests.
She didn't care about the concubine's teachings, but now she brought them out to meet guests, which made her feel ashamed!
Jianghu has eaten salted fish and eggplant stew. It is a bit salty, but it is super delicious!And it's not spicy!

The worries of the mistress of the third room in the backyard have nothing to do with Zhao Renhe.
While the third wife was angry, she was also looking for a suitable daughter-in-law. She even went out with Zhao Xiyi to pay New Year's greetings, to see other girls.
It's just the person she likes, others may not like her son.
So after watching her for half a month, she didn't see her as a daughter-in-law. On the contrary, outsiders knew more or less about her affairs.
Many wives and wives looked at her in the wrong way.
The [-]th day of the first lunar month is coming soon, and the palace is naturally full of lanterns, and there are lantern riddles guessing activities held in the mansion.
Although such an event is held at home, the garden at home is very large, and there are even many flowers that bloom in the first month, plus various flowers cultivated in the greenhouse.
The garden is full of flowers, the bright moon in the sky, the mirror-like lake surface, and some mercury mirrors as tall as a person.
Only then did Zhao Renhe discover that at this time, there was already a very modern mirror, but it was just a rarity, only found in the wife's room. Aunt Hai's place was just a mercury mirror the size of a plate. It's all just bronze mirrors.
He had thought before that one of the laws of time travel is that soap, perfume and glass, mixed with gunpowder, can run amok in the world.
As a result, he now uses bath beans, some expensive and some cheap, which are better than soap!
Perfume, I haven't found it yet, but I heard that there is fragrance dew, and incense is better than perfume.
Glass, this also appeared, the palm-sized one, inlaid in the middle of the window, surrounded by pasted window paper, the transparent part in the middle is enough to see the outside situation, if there is light, don’t have too much light here!
And the south is not cold!
Gunpowder has long been available, and the seniors are still very capable, and there is even an army of rope guns, known as the "fire gun army".
Although the person in front didn't do too much, but there were so many variables, Zhao Renhe couldn't help sighing: How many more years did you live?I'll come too, folks, see fellows, support me.
As a result, the fellow died too early, and now he is alone in this strange fictional era, and he really doesn't know where he is going.
Fortunately, in the early morning of the [-]th day of the first lunar month, two people came to his yard.
Both of them are of average height, rare in the south, with the same temperament as his uncle, except that one of them has a scar at the tip of his eyebrows, which is now covered by his hair. If you don't look carefully, you can't see it. But he flicked his hair on purpose!
The other one was walking on tiptoe, and the people who came were all wearing half-new and not old short clothes, but they didn't bring weapons, and it was impossible for the palace to allow strangers with weapons to enter the courtyard of the 11-year-old young master.
But Zhao Renhe felt that the one standing on tiptoe must have hurt his leg.
The two reported their families: "Zhang San" and "Li Si".
The name is very simple: "Meet the third master!"
Although Zhao Renhe is young, according to the rules, he will be the "main family" of the two of them from now on.
Zhao Renhe just took a look at them, and he knew that they were not simple, not to mention the hair, just the looks, they were the type that were rumored to be "thrown in the crowd and can't be found". They were very young, both in their 20s. He is many years old, but he looks very mature and stable, with two pairs of extremely bright eyes.
"Master Wu is invited by uncle, isn't it?" Zhao Renhe looked at the two of them with a smile, showing no sign of fear, and everyone around him knew that Master Wu came to teach them boxing kung fu today, and it was the third master's special request. A veteran in the army invited by my uncle.
"It's just the two of us." Li Si smiled: "Master Wu may not be, just be a regular."
"Masters, you are welcome. You can see that you are a master from the army. Uncle Li can't even call himself a "slave". If you say you are an ordinary person, who will you believe?"
Li Si was stunned for a moment!
He and Zhang San were indeed from a good family. They were injured in the army and could not recover, so they retreated disheartened. It just so happened that they had a fatal friendship with General Hai. General Hai also knew that they were alone. He had nothing to worry about, so he deliberately hired two people to be bodyguards for his little nephew.
It's just the distance from the palace to the school, so I can be a master of martial arts by the way, and teach my little nephew a little self-defense.
If you don't want to become a master, at least you can't be helpless.
Moreover, he doesn't trust the people in the mansion, saying that his little nephew is extremely intelligent, and he is deeply afraid of being persecuted by his aunt, so he must have trustworthy people by his side.
Only then did the two of them agree to come over for a try, and they found out that this is the Pingnan Palace. They were planning to come here a few years ago, but when they heard that it was the Pingnan Palace, they were timid, so they dragged it down and passed a troubled year. , After fifteen years, I couldn't justify it if I couldn't make it anymore, so I bit the bullet and came over, thinking, what can an 11-year-old doll have?
It's a big deal, it's possible to cry in fright when you see what they think is disgusting!
The time would definitely not have asked them to stay, and the two of them just walked away.
As for later?
Let's talk about the future.
They didn't hide their plans from General Hai at all, but General Hai said that his little nephew is a magical child, and the two of them would definitely like it when they saw it.
I used to think that General Hai was a bit suspicious of Lao Wang selling melons and boasting, but now I feel that maybe General Hai said
However, Aunt Hai has already told Zhao Xiyi in advance that she doesn't want the manpower given by her wife, it's too "nice", and her son can't afford it. Anyway, her elder brother picked two suitable ones outside, and she will write to ask her to send them over tomorrow. .
But it was agreed that he was not a slave, but a master of the two martial arts. He was a little injured and retired from the army. The monthly money was five taels of silver. Yes, I just want the child to be safe and sound! I won’t be picked up and kicked around.”
Zhao Xiyi, who was crying, was heartbroken, and as soon as her head got hot, she nodded in agreement.
The third wife quit: "This young master of my own family, how can he use the principles of outsiders? There are so many families in the house who have children, and you still can't pick out two suitable ones?"
"It's not that you can't pick it out, but you picked it, no one can trust it!" Zhao Xiyi flicked his sleeves: "I just came to inform you, and the rest has nothing to do with you."
After finishing speaking, she left, and the angry third wife tore off several handkerchiefs. Dong Rui's family advised her: "The future will be long."
"He's said that about me, what else do I have to do?" The third wife burst into tears: "For a little bastard, he even said this, don't believe me? I don't care! I It's the mistress of the third room!"
"Ma'am, there's no way. It's strange that this matter was broken by the master himself. Although Huo Saner is a good drinker and gambler, he is not so drunk. I heard that he can't stop when he is trapped." Well." What Dong Rui's family loves most is Cui Zhu, who is Huo San'er's wife, and now she has also eaten Gu Luo'er, and they have been sold out together.
In truth, Cuizhu is still her niece from afar.
Of course Huo San'er couldn't wake up from drinking, and Hou Dabao was reporting the news to Zhao Renhe and the others.
Still in the study, everyone was having a meeting together.
Just listen to Hou Dabao talking happily there: "The wine smells fragrant, but it is the first one. It is said that this wine has a long taste, but it has a lot of stamina. I also mixed a lot of Erguotou, a spirit from the north, into it. Saying that there are four of them, even four tigers can be defeated by him."
It caused everyone to burst into laughter. After laughing, Zhao Renhe began to summarize: "Our plan lasted five months, and it ended one month earlier than the expected half a year. When it comes to Little Tail, there must be no trace left at the end. In addition, we have completed this task well, but there is a little shortcoming, let's discuss it!"
135 Imperial Examination, Imperial Examination
135 Imperial Examination, Imperial Examination
Work summary, to cultivate this habit.
Everyone talked about what they thought was insufficient, and the meeting ended after a long discussion. Without outsiders, they felt free.
But these five months of posturing were not in vain, at least they were more mature.
Zhao Renhe picked up the two Chang Sui who hooked up with him to play and didn't study, and he recited the book for a few days and felt that he was very familiar with it. Just after school, he asked Uncle You Tang: "Uncle Tang, you study all day, and you will be tested during the exam." what?"
He only vaguely knew the number of imperial examinations, but he was not specific, and the imperial examinations were different from generation to generation.
"You want to know?" Zhao You looked at the concubine nephew who was born in the direct line of the royal family.
"Yeah!" Zhao Renhe nodded, "I really want to know."
"It's the "Four Books" exam."
Zhao Renhe blinked: "I know it's "Four Books", that is, Four Books and Five Classics."
"You still know the Five Classics?" Zhao You patted his head: "Very good."
"How do we take the test? Is it enough to memorize the Four Books and Five Classics? Isn't it just a test for memorization?" Zhao Renhe asked without hesitation, relying on his own innocence: "Or writing? Right? Poetry?"
Zhao You was amused by his words: "Of course not. In addition to reciting the article, it also needs to be explained, and the article should be explained."
"What kind of article do you explain?" Zhao Renhe regarded himself as a blue cat, because of "Three Thousand Questions about Naughty Blue Cats".
Zhao You paid some attention to this nephew. After all, he is the youngest child in the palace, and he is said to be quite favored. He simply hugged him, sat on a chair, took out a pen to give him a detailed explanation, and wrote down the county test, Government Examination, Academy Examination, Township Examination, General Examination, Palace Examination.
Zhao Renhe is no stranger to the word "examination". Count it, okay, you have to take at least six major exams to get ahead.
In his previous life, he only had three big exams for junior high school, high school, and college entrance examinations, and at most two postgraduate exams. These days, he is actually on par with a certain country with a big exam. Compared with this, even a scholar who takes the Chinese language exam in modern times takes the exam. but.
As a result, this was not over yet. Zhao You wrote the words "shengyuan", "giansheng", "juren", "jinshi" and so on, and explained to Zhao Renhe: "a scholar has to pass the three tests of the county, the government and the hospital. It's called "Ask Head", and the top ones get four taels of silver every year, and they are called Linsheng. No one cares about the money, it's just a nice name. Those who have been admitted to the county school are called Shengyuan. The county government has a one-year trial Once, and twice in three years. The exams are stereotyped essays, quiz poems, classics, rhymes...these things you still have to learn...you have to take five exams..."
Zhao Renhe's face turned green when he heard it!
Then he asked again: "Is it because the exam was very hard? I was locked in a small dark room for three to five days?"
"Where is it? It's the previous court." Zhao You laughed: "Although the exams of my court have continued the rules of the previous court, the examination room has been renovated and is much better than the previous court."
"That's still going to take several days!" What Zhao Renhe cared about was the time and difficulty of the exam, not the location, where can't he write a word?
"The three-day exam is a general exam. At least the conditions are better than those of the previous dynasty. You have to take a shower to enter."
Zhao Renhe had a black line on his face: "Oh, that's a good thing..."
Co-authored with that time-traveling senior and thought of such a trick?
I have to take a shower before entering the examination room, tsk tsk tsk!
While Zhao You was talking, he recalled a joke made by a classmate in the academy: "Scholars enter the palace, there are seven similarities: when they first entered, they looked like beggars carrying a basket with white feet. When they were called, officials and officials scolded them like prisoners. When it returns to the house, the hole stretches its head, and the house exposes its feet, like a cold bee at the end of autumn. When it comes out, its expression is dazed, the sky and the earth are different colors, like a sick bird out of the cage. Looking at the newspaper, the plants and trees are frightened, dreaming It’s also illusion. When you achieve your ambition, you will instantly build a pavilion; if you lose your ambition, your bones will rot in an instant. At this moment, it’s difficult to sit and walk, and it’s like being kidnapped. Tiaowuwu, his expression suddenly changed at this time, as if he was dead, he was like a baited poisonous fly, and he didn't even notice it. He was discouraged at the beginning, and he scolded Si Heng for his lack of eyes and pen and ink, and he was bound to raise his desk Burn everything up; burn it endlessly, and step on it; step on it endlessly, and throw it into the turbid stream. From then on, it will be scattered into the mountain, facing the stone wall, and then someone will come to me with the words "Qifu" and "taste" , I will fight to chase after it. No matter what the day is getting farther away, the spirit is getting flatter, and the skills are getting itchy again, so it is like a dove with a broken egg. It has to carry a wood to build a nest, and hug it again..."
Why wasn't it the case when he entered the arena back then?
I'm used to seeing many people who are usually polite and polite lose their temper, and some go crazy.
Zhao Renhe was also terrified when he heard it, this is much more ruthless than the college entrance examination!
Each session of the college entrance examination is calculated by the hour, and you can go home after the exam.
Although it was said that the college entrance examination took several days, but he was not locked in a small black room and not allowed to leave?
Then the foundation created by the predecessors is also a feudal society. Why didn't he reform the imperial examination?What is the use of light farming?If you spend your whole life digging in the soil, what else can you do other than make enough to eat?Can't help but sea, you can also develop sea trade?
Just like their family, all the white-faced scholars who are stuck sitting in the study and do not move, who were spoiled and spoiled since childhood, can they endure that hardship?
Moreover, he is a concubine, and it is a default thing for his aunt to suppress the concubine.
As long as you don't do it too much, no one will really care about it. Last time he was out of breath, so he gave him the first time.
Look at this small body, commuting by car every day, how many people have to faint because of lack of physical strength when they really have to take the exam?
Zhao You also looked at Zhao Renhe worriedly: "You need to take good care of your body, because the imperial examination is not only about essays, but also about the six arts of a gentleman. This is the rule set by the founding emperor. A person must be able to run 3000 meters. To be able to draw a bow and shoot an arrow well, at worst you have to be able to ride a horse yourself. Although it won’t make you charge into battle, but my Dashun Dynasty started from the chaos of war, so I can’t forget my roots. There is no lack of physical fitness!"
Zhao Renhe sighed in his heart, isn't it just sports?The seniors didn't understand it, and they became physically fit.
But it is also linked to the six arts of a gentleman, which is not bad. I know to find a reason, otherwise those bookworms who don't work hard in their limbs and don't distinguish between grains and grains for no reason may not follow suit.
Zhao You came back to his senses, seeing the contemplative expression of his nephew in his arms, he couldn't help laughing out: "That's what they said, you just study hard, you are still young, you should run and dance every day to take care of yourself Your body is important. When you get older and go to the academy, you will have to participate in various activities, such as riding a horse and shooting arrows. It is enough to make your body strong, even if you want to do it for an official. Zai, that’s also a civil servant, you won’t be allowed to go to the battlefield with a sword, if even the civil servants have to put on armor, unless it’s a battle to destroy the country.”
This child is quite obedient, and he was born as a concubine. If his aunt treats him like that, he can still not say anything bad about his aunt, she is a good child.
Alas, it's a pity, it's not a direct descendant.
"My nephew understands." Zhao Renhe nodded hastily: "Only one who endures hardships can become a master. Those who can endure hardships will endure hardships for a while, and those who can't endure hardships will endure hardships for a lifetime! Don't be afraid of difficulties at this time!"
"That's quite reasonable!" Zhao You touched his head affectionately: "Now that you understand, it's even better. A good man has his ambitions everywhere, and the backyard is where women are. Don't use it there." Too much thought, you know?"
Zhao Renhe nodded, but after returning, he began to study desperately again, especially the memorization. He not only memorized, but also copied the books.
After the twelfth lunar month, the Chinese New Year was less than a month away. While Zhao Renhe was studying hard, he finally lost a tooth while having a snack at noon one day.
Since then, he has had a cup of big bone soup for two meals a day, and the snacks he used in between are all soft. The beef jerky and small fish he used to eat are all gone, and they have been changed to soft osmanthus. Cake, walnut cake, Huaihua cake and the like.
Uncle sent some gifts, saying that the formalities had started over there, and after the new year, on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, he would come to the palace to be Zhao Renhe's master of martial arts.
"Don't you always follow?" Aunt Hai said, "I don't want my wife to have another chance to put someone beside my son."
"No, she failed to arrange for both of them, and I have already made an agreement with the clerk. When Zhang San and Li Si come, I will follow my nephew. One, in the future the nephew will build a family for the two of them, raise two more children, and work together!" Before the person arranged by Hai Fulong arrived, he had already thought about the future arrangements in advance: "The other frequent tasks, The two of them have also served concurrently, and when the nephew grows up, the six boys around him will also grow up, enough to protect him!"
The matter is settled here, only knowing that the little nephew has lost his teeth, and the unscrupulous uncle must tease Zhao Renhe.
Listening to him speak with a leaky mouth, he smiled as soon as he opened his mouth.
The angry Zhao Renhe closed his mouth tightly and stared at his uncle with big eyes, thinking he was an angry bird.
When she saw her uncle and nephew, she knew they were messing around, so Aunt Hai was helpless, so she went to cook two dishes for her eldest brother, had lunch with her son, and sent him away.
During Laba, there was good news from the concubine, that Zhao Hai was betrothed, and the betrothed was the girl from Prince Zhengxi's mansion, the third daughter of King Zhengxi, who was born in the first line, and also the rarest daughter. After passing the horoscope, the dowry has already been paid, and she will be married in the next year.
This is the first person of their "water generation" to marry a wife.
Moreover, he is the grandson of the eldest son, the future son, the future prince, and the male master of the palace. He can marry a wife and have children, which means that the palace can be passed on. Naturally, he is very happy.
The eldest son of the second room, Zhao Pai, also has an engagement partner, who seems to be a girl from the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion.
When it was the third bedroom, the third wife wanted to find a girl from the palace, but there was none!
"How could there be no one?" The third wife was unconvinced: "Both the first room and the second room are destined to be girls from the palace, so they will disappear when the third room comes?"
Zhao Xiyi looked at her coldly: "What's the matter with the third house? Qing'er doesn't even have any fame, and she's not a direct descendant. How can she propose marriage? Is it the grandson of King Pingnan? That's also the grandson of a concubine's son, He is still white, how can he get it? The second room is at least a direct descendant, and Zhao Pai is already a scholar, so at least he can say it and bring it up!"
Zhao Pai, a scholar, also took the exam hard. Taking advantage of the gap between filial piety and not consecutive filial piety, he seized the time to take the exam. Although his ranking was not very high, and he was not the top of the list, he was a scholar after all. shot.
No need for Zhao Hai, he is the eldest son, and he can be a stable son without fame and fame, and then become King Pingnan.
The third room is not enough, Zhao Xiyi herself is a concubine, has no mother, and has such a notorious wife, who will marry a girl in the future, and she will not be angry with her mother-in-law?
And there is a grandma on the top, the two layers of mother-in-law are suppressed, and the average daughter's family can't stand this.
The three elder brothers in the fourth room are all around the same age, and they will have to see each other in two years.
As for Zhao Wen of the fifth room, he is still young, so he will not be considered for the time being.
"Then let Qing'er take the exam, and let Ze'er take the exam!" The third wife said a little jealously: "My sons are all good boys, they are all outstanding, and they are no worse than anyone else's."
"Then let the child take the exam!" Zhao Xiyi felt that he couldn't communicate with his wife, and the imperial examination was so easy, so why did he bother.
Flicking his sleeves, he went to the study room, where there was a beautiful Xilan girl, much better than this yellow-faced woman.
After Laba, the school will be closed, and it will be February [-] before writing can be started, and the door will be opened to start teaching.
It would be better not to go to school. Zhao Renhe led people to run and dance in the yard every day to exercise. He also had to read and write, and he had to write down all the things he knew, so as not to forget them after a long time.
In addition, two separate rooms were cleared out, waiting for the arrival of his Master Wu. Master, of course he had to live in a single room.
Going to work after the holidays, I wish you all... smooth work!
13611 years old!
13611 years old!
From Chang Sui to Master Wu, Zhao Xiyi didn't know what to think. He prescribed three taels a month for the two masters, and Aunt Hai gave five taels alone, which was eight taels of silver.
Zhao Renhe thought that he had to show something, so he simply added two taels to make it perfect.
He has so much family background, but it is not short of these two taels of silver.
And for the young men who have gone to school, each of them is over ten years old, and the monthly silver is five taels. It is completely fine for him to take out two taels.
At the beginning, Zhao Renhe chose No. [-] Courtyard because the front yard of No. [-] Courtyard occupies a large area, like a small martial arts arena. In fact, this row of houses is for young men who have not yet married. There is a courtyard for them to live in, and there is also a place for their families to live behind.
This row of yards has such a pattern, and the front yards are all designed as small martial arts arenas.
It's just that now all the men of the Zhao family focus on literature, and many of them go to school to get a good reputation, so that they can become officials in the future.
Not being an official can't be a white body.
Three or two generations have never touched military power, and those who were born in the first generation were even accompanied by personal guards to practice boxing, and those who were born in the concubine were basically not taught kung fu, let alone let them read military books and military equipment.
Therefore, in the front yard of an ordinary small yard, either rare flowers and plants are planted, or towering trees are planted. Tree, okay, in spring, the pear blossoms are in full bloom, like clouds, and there is an elegant fragrance, not to mention how beautiful it is.
Only Zhao Renhe's No. [-] courtyard has the original layout, which has not been changed for many years. Only straight ginkgo trees are planted at the four corners, and a peace tank is placed under the tree.
The open space in the middle is full of bluestone slabs. On the east side, there are small things that Zhao Renhe made people fiddle with, such as plum blossom piles and single-plank bridges, all of which are miniature versions, and there are various small vertical ladders, horizontal ladders, etc. I usually climb to play, and exercise my body bones by the way.
Anyway, there is no shortage of wood in the palace, and there are even skilled carpenters who can make it look very good for you with a little money.
It's just that no one taught them, so they figured it out on their own, because they were still young.
can afford to wait.
Before the new year, my uncle didn't come, but he sent two carts of New Year gifts to Aunt Hai and his nephew.
Because there is no need to observe filial piety, there is a carload of food in the two carloads of New Year gifts, ranging from Jinhua ham to beef jerky, and they are all things that can be stored for a long time.
There are also preserved pork ribs, bacon sausages, etc., as well as seaside things such as dried sea fish, eel, and salted fish.
Seeing it, Aunt Hai burst into tears, so she made a salted fish and eggplant stew for Zhao Renhe that day.
There is no fresh eggplant to eat at this time, only dried eggplant and salted fish are used. It has a unique flavor. Zhao Renhe finished three bowls of rice in one go and wanted to continue eating. Aunt Hai was so frightened that she quickly stopped: "If you like it, I will have breakfast tomorrow." Just make it for you again, but you can’t eat like this.”
"It's delicious, mother, you did a great job!" Zhao Renhe's sweet compliments made Aunt Hai feel good, and her smile trembled.
Turning around, Zhao Renhe went back to Courtyard No. [-], and called Xifeng: "Come here for some tea, the kind you can drink right away!"
"What's the matter with you?" Xi Feng beckoned to the staff, who removed the overcoat he was wearing to protect him from the cold, "Didn't you drink tea at my aunt's place?"
"Here comes the tea." Xilu brought him black tea at the right temperature.
Zhao Renhe took a big gulp after receiving it, and he breathed a sigh of relief after drinking it: "The salted fish and eggplant stew made by my aunt is delicious. I ate a little too much, and I'm starving."
"Don't you want to eat more rice?" Xidan brought him a plate of white rice cakes. There was no honey in this thing, only the fragrance of rice. Grandpa eats.
Now that he is soaked in salt, it is just right to eat this.
"I ate three big bowls." Zhao Renhe stretched out his hand and gestured: "It's delicious, but it's a bit salty."
"Salted fish and eggplant stew is a common side dish for coastal people. If you eat less like this and feel fresh, it is only one or two meals. It will be fine next time. Let's tell Aunt Hai that this is in the palace. If you do it again, soak the salted fish in water for a day and night, take it out and cook it again, it will not be so salty." Xi Bai smiled and said: "Ordinary people do this to save salt. When cooking salted fish and eggplant, you just knock off the brine on top of the salted fish, and you can also use it to marinate a salted duck egg. After the fish is soaked in water and softened, you can cook it together with the hairtail fish, and you don’t need to add salt.”
"So it's like this? I just said, Auntie's salted fish and eggplant stew is indeed salty enough." After speaking, I was happy: "I still choose salted fish to eat!"
The maids in the room were all overjoyed, and the woman who brought water in to wash him couldn't help but laugh too.
That night, Zhao Renhe filled his stomach with water and poured water several times. The next day, the small urine bucket was almost full.
For breakfast, he was so busy drinking porridge that he didn't eat a few mouthfuls of buns.
After a few days, when I ate salted fish and eggplant stew again, it was not as salty as last time. When Zhao Xiyi came to eat, Aunt Hai made him a portion. While eating, she told him about her son: " I'm also confused, this is the palace and not my hometown, the first time I made it, I stunned my son, and it was only the second time I remembered, this time I will make it for you, the salted fish is soaked, eat it Not salty anymore."
Zhao Xiyi was also very happy. Aunt Hai only talked to him about the family's gossip and interesting things in the daily life. She never caused him trouble. win his heart.
After the twelfth lunar month is the Chinese New Year.
Aunt Hai couldn't wear red herself, but she was interested in her son's wearing red, so she dressed Zhao Renhe as a red envelope.
Zhao Renhe is a male, he can go to worship the ancestors, but he is a concubine and young, so he followed Sanfang to make soy sauce.
It's just that the elder brother Zhao Qing seems to be a little thinner, so he couldn't help but put a piece of auspicious wish for his elder brother during the New Year's Eve dinner, which is actually braised chicken nuggets: "Brother, you have lost a lot of weight, eat some meat to make up for it." Make up for it."
Zhao Qing didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I'm forced by my studies, I don't have any appetite to eat."
"Is it so hard to go to school?" Zhao Renhe's eyes widened: "I don't think so?"
"You are just an elementary school. You learn nothing more than three hundred thousand, and memorize the Four Books and Five Classics again. My elder brother and I have suffered a lot. After the new year, we will take the exam. This year, let's get the scholar out first and then talk about other things!" Zhao said. Ze chewed a piece of stewed duck vigorously: "I study every day, and I am dizzy."
"I'm about to go to the academy for an exam, and I have to pass three tests!" Zhao Ze pursed his lips to scare Zhao Renhe: "The examination for a scholar has to pass three levels of examinations, that is, the strict examinations at the county, government, and road levels are divided into six grades. Only those who have passed the high level can be awarded the title of scholar, because in the previous dynasty, each court exam was taken twice every three years, and 45 people were admitted each time, with an average of 450 people per year. There are only five places in this county, which means that the current college entrance examination is the top five in the county. The founding emperor felt that the admissions were too rare, so he changed it. He expanded the number of places ten times, but at the same time, banned those who have meritorious reputation from being exempted from taxation. The only treatment is to retain the treatment of not kneeling when seeing an official. That is to say, [-] students are admitted each time, with an average of [-] students per year. Just for this reform, scholars all over the world are particularly supportive of Emperor Hongji."
"The first level of exams, the examiners like you are collectively called Tongsheng, don't think that those who take the exam are all children like you, among them there are not a few gray-haired elderly people, even middle-aged people There are quite a few of them, and some of them are so poor that they have never been admitted to the ranks of scholars in their entire lives. There are also many people who have not crossed the threshold of being a child. It is not like operas performed on stage. Scholars are scholars. It seems that being the champion is a very easy game." Zhao Qing looked like a big brother: "You, study hard, don't always be playful, or time will be wasted, and don't be an old man when you get old. Tongsheng!"
These words are a bit vicious, where is there anyone who doesn't look forward to a bright future for children?Still old?
It was a cousin at the same table, seeing that Zhao Renhe was young, he chatted with him and told him about the imperial examination.
There are only three people in the first list, the champion, the second place in the list and Tanhua, also called the top three; "Born with Jinshi", as the saying goes, a fellow Jinshi is like a wife.
It shows that the last list has no knowledge, and the tail of the crane is not accepted, and it is not very popular.
If someone gets No. 1 in the provincial examination, general examination, and palace examination (that is, Jieyuan, Huiyuan, and No. [-]), it is called "Lianzhong Sanyuan".
"Then the big brother won three yuan in a row?" Zhao Renhe pretended to be a child happily, as if he didn't care about the vicious curse that the big brother gave him just now: "In that case, I will call him brother Sanyuan from now on, ahahaha..."
For the Chinese New Year, he said such auspicious words, and no one got angry with him. Zhao Qing's complexion improved a little: "As long as you can pass the exam, let's talk about whether it is three yuan or not."
In fact, he is not sure. Over the years, he has relaxed a lot, and his husband has changed a few times, and he has not studied knowledge intensively. Besides, he stays at home all day, his mother dotes on him, and his father dotes on him. Familiar, always with the arrogance of a family, how can there be a family on the same level as the Pingnan Palace in the southern coastal area?
"Brother works hard, I'm sure I can do it." Zhao Renhe happily ate the New Year's Eve dinner: "I will marry us a well-educated sister-in-law in the future, hehehe... I will have a little nephew soon!"
"You little guy, you think too far." Zhao Qing finally gave Zhao Renhe a good face: "Here is a piece of steamed abalone for you, eat it well."
"Oh, thank you, Brother Qing." I hope you can come back as a scholar with the score of Qing University.
After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and ate the abalone. It was really a pure wild abalone, and it was quite big. It tasted delicious.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, the New Year's greetings began the next day. Zhao Renhe was the youngest in his generation, so he only received red envelopes, but no red envelopes.
Moreover, he is the youngest, and when he goes to the other four houses to pay New Year's greetings, he also receives red envelopes. Plus, Zhao Renhe has studied, and in the eyes of adults, he should understand etiquette. In the first year after that, Zhao Xiyi brought her three sons out to meet guests. Of course, there was a difference between the concubines and concubines, and Zhao Renhe was still young, so he would not be brought along when going out to meet guests.
It's just that the third house and third master who appeared in front of people is 11 years old, a young boy, and he is polite, so he is a good boy at first glance.
He doesn't have the shyness of a bastard, many people like it, and the gifts for him are very expensive.
Every night, Zhao Renhe's favorite thing is to sit on his bed and count the gifts and red envelopes that others give him.
Many people would not give such a young child jade pendants, bracelets, purses, cute purses filled with gold beans, gold scorpions, small silver ingots and other things, he just loves them. this.
Someone also gave him a lucky bean carved with jade, which is rare, and "gold has a price but jade is priceless". Those who give jade ornaments are much more expensive gifts than those who give gold and silver.
Zhao Renhe is looking forward to seeing guests every day, if he has money, he can get it!
But the third wife, Ma Jing, was angry every day because the concubine was taken out by the master to meet guests. She didn't know, it was the second son who told her that the third brother of Hanluju was brought out by his father to meet guests.
As a result, she had to bring her daughter and two concubines who were already ten years old to meet the guests.
She didn't care about the concubine's teachings, but now she brought them out to meet guests, which made her feel ashamed!
Jianghu has eaten salted fish and eggplant stew. It is a bit salty, but it is super delicious!And it's not spicy!

The worries of the mistress of the third room in the backyard have nothing to do with Zhao Renhe.
While the third wife was angry, she was also looking for a suitable daughter-in-law. She even went out with Zhao Xiyi to pay New Year's greetings, to see other girls.
It's just the person she likes, others may not like her son.
So after watching her for half a month, she didn't see her as a daughter-in-law. On the contrary, outsiders knew more or less about her affairs.
Many wives and wives looked at her in the wrong way.
The [-]th day of the first lunar month is coming soon, and the palace is naturally full of lanterns, and there are lantern riddles guessing activities held in the mansion.
Although such an event is held at home, the garden at home is very large, and there are even many flowers that bloom in the first month, plus various flowers cultivated in the greenhouse.
The garden is full of flowers, the bright moon in the sky, the mirror-like lake surface, and some mercury mirrors as tall as a person.
Only then did Zhao Renhe discover that at this time, there was already a very modern mirror, but it was just a rarity, only found in the wife's room. Aunt Hai's place was just a mercury mirror the size of a plate. It's all just bronze mirrors.
He had thought before that one of the laws of time travel is that soap, perfume and glass, mixed with gunpowder, can run amok in the world.
As a result, he now uses bath beans, some expensive and some cheap, which are better than soap!
Perfume, I haven't found it yet, but I heard that there is fragrance dew, and incense is better than perfume.
Glass, this also appeared, the palm-sized one, inlaid in the middle of the window, surrounded by pasted window paper, the transparent part in the middle is enough to see the outside situation, if there is light, don’t have too much light here!
And the south is not cold!
Gunpowder has long been available, and the seniors are still very capable, and there is even an army of rope guns, known as the "fire gun army".
Although the person in front didn't do too much, but there were so many variables, Zhao Renhe couldn't help sighing: How many more years did you live?I'll come too, folks, see fellows, support me.
As a result, the fellow died too early, and now he is alone in this strange fictional era, and he really doesn't know where he is going.
Fortunately, in the early morning of the [-]th day of the first lunar month, two people came to his yard.
Both of them are of average height, rare in the south, with the same temperament as his uncle, except that one of them has a scar at the tip of his eyebrows, which is now covered by his hair. If you don't look carefully, you can't see it. But he flicked his hair on purpose!
The other one was walking on tiptoe, and the people who came were all wearing half-new and not old short clothes, but they didn't bring weapons, and it was impossible for the palace to allow strangers with weapons to enter the courtyard of the 11-year-old young master.
But Zhao Renhe felt that the one standing on tiptoe must have hurt his leg.
The two reported their families: "Zhang San" and "Li Si".
The name is very simple: "Meet the third master!"
Although Zhao Renhe is young, according to the rules, he will be the "main family" of the two of them from now on.
Zhao Renhe just took a look at them, and he knew that they were not simple, not to mention the hair, just the looks, they were the type that were rumored to be "thrown in the crowd and can't be found". They were very young, both in their 20s. He is many years old, but he looks very mature and stable, with two pairs of extremely bright eyes.
"Master Wu is invited by uncle, isn't it?" Zhao Renhe looked at the two of them with a smile, showing no sign of fear, and everyone around him knew that Master Wu came to teach them boxing kung fu today, and it was the third master's special request. A veteran in the army invited by my uncle.
"It's just the two of us." Li Si smiled: "Master Wu may not be, just be a regular."
"Masters, you are welcome. You can see that you are a master from the army. Uncle Li can't even call himself a "slave". If you say you are an ordinary person, who will you believe?"
Li Si was stunned for a moment!
He and Zhang San were indeed from a good family. They were injured in the army and could not recover, so they retreated disheartened. It just so happened that they had a fatal friendship with General Hai. General Hai also knew that they were alone. He had nothing to worry about, so he deliberately hired two people to be bodyguards for his little nephew.
It's just the distance from the palace to the school, so I can be a master of martial arts by the way, and teach my little nephew a little self-defense.
If you don't want to become a master, at least you can't be helpless.
Moreover, he doesn't trust the people in the mansion, saying that his little nephew is extremely intelligent, and he is deeply afraid of being persecuted by his aunt, so he must have trustworthy people by his side.
Only then did the two of them agree to come over for a try, and they found out that this is the Pingnan Palace. They were planning to come here a few years ago, but when they heard that it was the Pingnan Palace, they were timid, so they dragged it down and passed a troubled year. , After fifteen years, I couldn't justify it if I couldn't make it anymore, so I bit the bullet and came over, thinking, what can an 11-year-old doll have?
It's a big deal, it's possible to cry in fright when you see what they think is disgusting!
The time would definitely not have asked them to stay, and the two of them just walked away.
As for later?
Let's talk about the future.
They didn't hide their plans from General Hai at all, but General Hai said that his little nephew is a magical child, and the two of them would definitely like it when they saw it.
I used to think that General Hai was a bit suspicious of Lao Wang selling melons and boasting, but now I feel that maybe General Hai said
