Chapter 120 Self-satisfied!
Zhang Chengxi suddenly appeared, the situation completely reversed, and everyone in the audience was stunned.
What is this situation? The old lady has already identified Lu Zheng as a disaster star for the Zhang family. The big house has a close relationship with Lu Zheng because of Zhang Jing. It would be fine if they jumped out to disobey the old lady, why did Zhang Chengxi jump out to sing the opposite tune at this time?
Especially Zhang Chengxi's wife, Mrs. Su, son, Zhang Haoran, and daughter Zhang Baoyi, they would never have thought that this would happen. You should know that in Zhang Chengxi's eyes, he is also very disgusted with Lu Zheng!
Especially after the last poetry meeting, Zhang Chengxi's impression of Lu Zheng was extremely distant. He even thought that Lu Zheng had influenced his career and had the intention to eradicate Lu Zheng!
Today, what happened to Zhang Chengxi on this occasion? His attitude turned around and supported the big house?
Hua Hanjun was also so shocked that she opened her mouth wide, staring at her second uncle, thinking that she had hallucinations, how could this be possible?
After she said this just now, she felt that she was dead. She felt that she would fall out of favor from the old lady from now on and become an idle person like Mrs. Gu in the Zhang family.
But at this time, Zhang Chengxi actually stood up to support her? What is Zhang Chengxi's identity? He is the head of the Zhang family now. He stood up to support her. Even the old lady may have to take back her life, right?
Faced with the puzzled eyes of many people, Zhang Chengxi laughed loudly, looking indescribable.
He first saluted Zhang's mother in a regular manner and said, "My mother, I'm late because I want to talk to Mr. Nie, Master Liang and others. I'll ask my mother for forgiveness."
Zhang's mother nodded gently, her expression became calm, and she said, "Chengxi, the whole family will not speak two families anymore. Do you have any good news?"
Zhang Chengxi grinned and said, "Those who know me are mothers! There is great news this time!"
He looked around and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Nie has confirmed something. He wants to recommend me to the court immediately as the county magistrate of Xinhe County. Xinhe County magistrate is from the seventh rank and is ranked among the imperial court's rank. When I was in my forties, I had the opportunity to serve the court and the emperor. This is the protection and blessing of my ancestors of the Zhang family..."
When Zhang Chengxi said this, the audience was shocked. Mrs. Su and Zhang Haoran exclaimed at the same time. Zhang's mother was stunned for a moment, and a happy smile appeared on her face.
Although the Xinhe County Magistrate, although he only had a seventh-rank official position, he was a truly rank official in the court and an official recorded by the Ministry of Personnel. Zhang Chengxi entered the official career and was the first of the three brothers in the Zhang family. Isn’t this good news?
There were only two ways to become an official in the Dakang Dynasty. One way was to be a powerful family. For example, after inheriting the title, the emperor gave him real positions, and the other way was to the imperial examination.
However, since Emperor Xinde took power, he promulgated the "Order of Essays" and gave him one more way to become an official, which was the path to becoming a wise man.
According to the "Order of Appeal of Wisdom", all officials above the seventh rank of Dakang can be selected as wise men for the court. Once the wise men are rewarded, the wise men will be promoted immediately.
This article "The Order of Juxian" shocked the court and the country for ten years, and its influence was still huge. The biggest influence was that the powerful families were suppressed, and many poor scholars benefited from the "The Order of Juxian" and were qualified to devote their lives to the emperor of the court.
Today, Zhang Chengxi said that he was being stolen by Nie Yongxian. It is conceivable that once this matter is done, he feels that he can also achieve a good story!
Zhang Chengxi felt the gaze of the people around him, and he was even more proud and said:
"Now, when is my Xinhe County? It's the boy's test soon. This time, my Xinhe must win a great victory in the boy's test. The eight counties in Yangzhou are in the forefront.
Now, Lord Jung-san gave me this job. Tell me, is Brother Zheng the lucky star of our Zhang family?"
When Zhang Chengxi said this, he paused and said, "Since the Dragon Boat Festival Poetry Festival, Brother Hao was frustrated, my Zhang family was frustrated, and my morale was depressed. I personally guide Brother Hao to focus on the current literature. In addition, Zhang Tang and Zhang Zhen also worked hard to study together.
Guanshan Academy, Shu Yuan, Tian Zepeng and other students are also shameless and brave. They lie on firewood and taste gall, study hard, and make rapid progress after half a year of hard study. My Zhang family Haoran's talent is no less than that of the first-class talent in Yangzhou. This time, I will definitely be a scholar in high school.
Zhang Tang and Zhang Zhen successfully entered Guanshan Academy’s A-shaped figure and had a chance to end. If you work harder, maybe the boy’s test will be expected. Even if you can’t become a scholar, you can pass the county test and the government test is no problem, haha..."
When Zhang Chengxi said this, he was very proud, and the people of the Zhang family were so excited by Zhang Chengxi's words.
Even the old lady's spirit suddenly came up. Not to mention that after Zhang Chengxi said this, the Zhang family was really going to flourish. Zhang Chengxi has now started to do some tricks for Lord Nie, which shows that it is a foregone conclusion that this is the first joy.
Zhang Haoran and others from the Zhang family, Sai Weng's horse, after eating at the Dragon Boat Festival poetry meeting, calmed down to study. Now the opportunity comes immediately, right in front of you!
Zhang Chengxi came to take care of the job for Lord Nie. What does this mean? At least in the county trial, the Zhang family will definitely not worry about it.
There are three levels of scholar exams, the first level is the county exam, the second level is the government exam, and the third level is the college exam. If you can pass the first two levels, you can be called "children", and if you can pass the county exam smoothly, this is a great start.
Zhang Chengxi is now responsible for mobilizing students in the county. He will get the moon first when approaching the water. Guanshan Academy and the Zhang family have the opportunity to come!
Everyone understands this principle, so the atmosphere soon becomes extremely warm, Zhang Chengxi:
"There is one more thing I want to tell you. According to Lord Nie, Lu Zheng's poems are indeed good, but the time text is really poor.
This scientific examination is an opportunity for Guanshan Academy and our Zhang family to be honest. Lu Zheng followed Luo Guancai to learn the classics. Luo Guancai himself is a stubborn and paranoid person. He has failed the test for so many years. I hope he can teach students well?
Also, since the Dragon Boat Festival became famous, Lu Zheng has been arrogant, self-righteous, proud and complacent, and very relaxed in his studies. He fished for three days and ran out of the Internet for two days. This is something that everyone has seen.
But Zhishui Academy really thought Lu Zheng was a treasure and was trying to win him over. Lord Nie said that this time, Lu Zheng would show his true form!"
Speaking of this, Zhang Chengxi became more and more handsome and said, "What I said is not only the meaning of Lord Nie, but also the meaning of Guishan Chang.
The high and low levels of Lu Zheng's time were personally tested by Director Guishan. Hehe, Director Guishan never speaks lies, so this time, haha, it's time for my Zhang family to be proud.
That Lu Zheng thought he was unable to afford it, and he would be in vain when he turned around, and he was afraid he would not even pass the county examination!"
Zhang Chengxi talked freely and said Lu Zheng’s timely writing was worthless. Everyone at the scene was relieved when they heard it. Zhang Haoran was the first to jump out and said:
"I have said that Lu Zheng's writing is not good at writing, but some people don't believe it. Lu Zheng just wrote a few poems on Dragon Boat Festival. The scientific test was eight-legged articles, not poetry, songs, and Lu Zheng was not familiar with writing, so I don't believe that he could pass us!"
After Zhang Haoran said this, his chest immediately stood up. Since the Dragon Boat Festival, he has become a laughing stock in Yangzhou, and he has tears in his words.
In the past six months, Zhang Chengxi has personally supervised his studies, so in half a year, he has basically not shown up in public, but he thinks he has learned the real thing.
Today, what Zhang Chengxi said can be said to have released his six-year depression. He has always suspected Lu Zheng's level of writing, but he suffered too much from the Dragon Boat Festival poetry and Lu Zheng's fame is too high. Even if he speaks it in a scattered way, no one will believe him, and it may just make people laugh.
Zhang Haoran has never suppressed this way since he was a child. Today, Zhang Chengxi finally moved away the stone that was pressing on his heart, making him feel angry.
Zhang Chengxi said again: "You all listened, Nie County Zun said that after the Spring Festival, he will specially host a banquet for me, Xinhe Talented. This banquet will be hosted by our Zhang family. At that time, haha, the county test will be topped in it, and you will have to work hard!"
When Zhang Chengxi said this, everyone in the audience was even more happy. After all, the Zhang family is a scholarly family and everyone knows some of the hidden rules of the scientific examination.
The county magistrate said that it was a treat, but in fact, he wanted to take the opportunity to catch all the good seedlings in the county first. Such a banquet is equivalent to a "recommended" in later generations. Any student who is qualified to attend the banquet can basically be said to have passed the county trial.
Moreover, the top of the county exam usually appears among the students attending the banquet, which is basically an open secret. Now that Zhang Chengxi is doing such an important errand, this is extraordinary.
There are many rules that have become customary in the boy exam, such as the top of the county exam. Generally, as long as it is not outrageous, the examiner will not be embarrassed in the government and college exams, and there is no problem in becoming a scholar.
This means that Zhang Chengxi now has a scholar's place on hand, and Zhang Haoran is a Tongsheng. He doesn't need to take the county or government exams. He can't use this place. This is a small regret, but there is more than one Zhang Haoran in the Zhang family!
Zhang's mother was very happy, and her face was no longer as ugly as before. She leaned on a dragon-headed crutch and said, "Chengxi, this time Nie County respects you for your important tasks, you must take it seriously.
In my Zhang family, except for Haoran, although Zhang Tang and Zhang Zhen are all good children and good seedlings, they are still young after all, so it is not advisable to pull seedlings to help grow. As Zepeng, I think that all talents and character are first-class, and such talented people should stand out."
Zhang’s mother said this very explicitly. Since Zhang Haoran of the Zhang family cannot get the quota for this "recommended" scholar, it is completely impossible to give this quota to Zhang Tang and Zhang Zhen, and Nie County Zun can’t pass it.
