The Red Mansion Is Like a Jade Gentleman

After checking all the inside and outside of the house, the most corrupt ones will all lose money, and if they really can't get the money, they will go bankrupt and pay.After paying the compensation, the whole family drove out of the house.Of course, as a family to give birth to a child, this can be regarded as a kindness, and all the procedures of the yamen have been completed.Then those who were less greedy were kept in their jobs for inspection for later use, and they were all kicked out.

Especially the account books outside, Mr. Lin didn't check them once a year, every other month, and if they were far away, he would check them every six months. Anyway, it's not their masters who are bothering, so what are you afraid of.

There is a lot of money in the official account, and the subordinates have also packed up. The Lin family has calmed down!

However, things are not as everyone imagined, and the Lin family is still under a tense atmosphere.

After Lin Shen came back from Jinling, he began to prepare for the next year's test!Although there is still half a year of study time in the Six Arts Academy, the Six Arts Academy will not stop this kind of thing that requires improvement.

Therefore, the Lin family's energy is now concentrated on Lin Shen, because he is about to take the exam.In fact, think about it, sometimes the scholars in ancient times were more miserable than our current students. We can take other paths if we don’t read well, but this is the only way in ancient times.

Although the imperial examination system has many criticisms in the eyes of modern people, it is the only way for ordinary people in this era to make progress.If a child from an aristocratic family like Lin Shen wants to gain a real foothold in Qingliu, he must rely on the imperial examination.

Because Lin Shen had to take the National Examination in February every year, this year was not complicated, that is, everyone had a good time together.

But the Jiang family is very busy these days, Lin Shen has to prepare for the exam, and after the exam, everything that should be prepared for the marriage has to be prepared.For the children's affairs, parents always have to be perfect, and they also have to make a good fortune during the Chinese New Year.

therefore.I also specially found official kilns to burn a few sets of various kinds of porcelain with auspicious meanings, such as magpies climbing plums, toad palaces and laurel, which were placed in the room. Ruyi and other fancy.The Jiang family can't wait for someone to say in front of him every day that his son will definitely be named on the gold list, and the servants in the family are also very conscious, and they will never say things like failure or homophony in public.

As a result, everyone in the mansion is looking forward to Lin Shen High School, so that they can get more rewards, and at the same time hope that the time for the exam will come sooner.

Fortunately, time goes forward every day.

In a blink of an eye, the three-year examination began.Lin Shen also took the exam.The whole Lin family was on guard, and the Jiang family was even more nervous, compared to Jiang's nervousness.Master Lin seemed much calmer. He told Lin Shen to treat it with a normal heart.

"Madam. Madam..." Jiang's personal servant girl, Hongshan, rushed over and said excitedly, "The second young master has won, and the second young master is No. 4." After a while, I asked if there was any good news. In her opinion, the second young master of her family is a very promising one.There is no reason not to.Live up to expectations, and finally let her get the good news.

"Really?" Jiang asked excitedly.

Sequoia nodded quickly.

"Okay! Okay! The whole house will reward one month's money, in Shen'er's courtyard. Each person will be rewarded for two more months." Jiang said excitedly.

Jiang Shi was very happy to hear that Lin Shenzhong had won No.4, and after a while congratulatory gifts from various prefectures came, and Jiang Shi naturally accepted them happily.The Lin family was naturally happy that Lin Shen won No. 4, but neither the Jiang family nor Lin Shen had any intention of doing anything big.

It's not that the Jiang family doesn't love Lin Shen, but she has her own ideas. Although she is happy to win No.4, if she can hold the banquet at this time.In case it wasn't her crow's mouth, but in case Lin Shenma stumbled and was knocked down during the palace examination, wouldn't it become a joke in the whole capital.What Jiang meant was to wait until the results of the last imperial examination came out.

Although Lin Shen's own thinking is a bit different from Jiang's, it is similar. Now he just wants to calm down and prepare for the palace examination. He is very confident in himself and believes that he will definitely win the first class.

During the family dinner in the evening, Master Lin drank a few more glasses excitedly, looking at Lin Shen full of pride.Then he told Lin Shen not to be proud, but to work harder.

A month passed quickly, and the day of the palace examination came as scheduled. Master Lin didn't put pressure on Lin Shen, but just told him to perform normally.

The palace examination is no more than the general examination, which takes three days. Lin Shen came back that day.The palace examination was relatively simple, just an essay. When Lin Shen came back, his face was very relaxed.

In the evening, Lin Hai asked someone to prepare some wine and appetizers, and wanted to have a good talk with Lin Shen.

Taking a sip of the wine, Lin Hai smiled and said, "Let's relax now!"

Lin Shen took a bite of the food, and put down his wine and chopsticks, "How come, brother, it's not like you haven't seen your mother's appearance, you wish I could write the article silently, and let my father show it to the Confucianism."

Lin Hai smiled slightly, "Mother just cares about the chaos, honestly, is Yijia sure?"

Lin Shen took a sip of wine angrily, and shook his head, "The topic of this palace exam is about water conservancy. Although I wrote a lot, I didn't write much in practice. I'm afraid I won't pass the exam! "

"That's not necessarily the case. At least you have written some practical things, which is better than not writing them! Besides, the emperor is quite satisfied with the Lin family now, and maybe he will give you this kind of grace!" Lin Hai said inscrutablely.

Lin Shen was taken aback, "Big brother means..."

Throughout the ages, emperors have always liked to come up with some anecdotes and stories, especially in the imperial examinations. If you know Yuan and Huiyuan in the middle, the emperor is likely to give you a champion and make a big three. If the emperor values That courtier, then, it is possible to let others come in one by one and a few Jinshi come out. It is also very common for both father and son to be the number one scholar.

Their Lin family can be considered to have won the emperor's heart now, maybe...

"Maybe! But it's also possible that they won't. There are several children from Jinke who have taken the exam!" It's not just the Lin family who have dignity in front of the emperor, there are other families too!

Lin Shen nodded, expressing that he knew it, so he gave up this fluke mentality!

After the palace examination on March [-]th, even though Lin Shen said that he was in good condition, the whole family of the Lin family was still worried. The result of the son's palace examination.

"Madam, Madam, the good news is here, Second Young Master Tanhualang from High School!" After a long time, there was a sound of gongs and drums at the door, and before the Jiang family sent someone out to check the situation, the servants came to report.

Jiang shi covered her mouth, Tanhua!National No.3...

And my eldest son was also Tanhua back then, isn't this the legendary "one discipline and two detectives"?

Jiang's was instantly proud!

In the evening, the father and son went to the Qionglin banquet hosted by the emperor in the palace.

Actually, there is nothing to say about the Qionglin Banquet. The Xinke Scholars each wrote a corresponding poem, but it is not easy to write this thing well. Emperor Xuande was not particularly interested tonight, so he left after sitting for a while Of course, the reason is that the emperor is here, and the Xinke Jinshi will inevitably be unable to let go of Sheng Yan.

Although there is more freedom without the emperor, but there are some people who put on airs, and some people don't put on airs!

This time at the Six Arts Academy, the best candidate for Lin Shen's examination was Tanhua, and everyone else was in the top two. The No. [-] pick and the top biography of the top two were not people Lin Shen knew, so it was meaningless to sit anywhere. The Qionglin Banquet will be over soon!

After Lin Shen returned to the Lin Mansion, the Jiang family saw that Lin Shen's face was red and smelled of alcohol, so he hurriedly called the servant girl over, changed Lin Shen into homely clothes, and wiped Lin Shen's face with a handkerchief. , and asked someone to bring a bowl of eight-treasure tea over, and only after Lin Shen sat down beside him did he ask Lin Shen about the Qionglin Banquet.

Lin Shen also drank only two or three ounces of wine, and was not drunk. No one would dare to really get drunk at this kind of banquet. The crime of disrespect in front of the palace is not just for fun.After Lin Shen wiped his face with a hot handkerchief, he felt much more comfortable, so he smiled and told Jiang what he had seen and heard throughout the day, joking and joking from time to time, which made Jiang couldn't close his mouth.

Master Lin and Lin Hai came back soon. Master Lin was so proud of himself this day. Everyone in the cabinet knew that his second son was a Tanhua, and the eldest son Lin Hai was also a Tanhua. Well, how envious and jealous a person is.

It is still the same old saying that even generations of scholars cannot guarantee that the children and grandchildren will love reading and have excellent qualifications to stand out in the imperial examination.Several ministers in the cabinet have their own helplessness in family affairs. Several people have no successors. If there is no accident at this moment, the Lin family can at least maintain its prosperity for at least 50 years. How can this not be the case? Let the elders who are worried about the future of the family be envious!

Although Mr. Lin still maintained his usual calm and peaceful expression today, he couldn't suppress the joy in his heart. Even meeting a few members of the Chen family couldn't make him feel any worse. It's going to be windy.

After giving Lin Shen a good word of encouragement, Master Lin suppressed his incomparably excited mood, and went back to the room with his feet blushing!

Lin Hai and Lin Shen gave Master Lin a funny look, and Lin Hai also congratulated Lin Shen before going back to his room!Although it is a very happy time for Lin Shen to win Tanhua.But in Lin Hai's eyes, his own little girl is more important, and he has to go back to coax the little bun!
