Chapter 10 The status of a scholar
The scene of Chen Xiao pulling Long Jiuling away was seen by a 30-year-old man in the yamen who was not in the blue official uniform.
Judging from the official uniform, this man is a dictionary in the yamen, and he is in charge of arrest and prison.
"You used to be the county magistrate, but now you are nothing. So it's a pity to follow you with such a beautiful and beautiful lady..."
As he said that, a greedy look appeared in his eyes!
...
On the other hand, Chen Xiao followed his father to outside a large mansion in Qinghe Lane.
The plaque at the door of the house is Chen Mansion.
Chen Xiao glared at him. This old house is very big and very grand.
After walking in, I saw that it was a big guy inside, much larger than the backyard of the yamen.
"Dad, how can our family be in a down-and-out place? It's clear..." Chen Xiao didn't know how to describe it.
Chen Wenshan smiled and then sighed:
"Son, you don't understand. Once you enter the officialdom, you are no longer an official now. I'm afraid that the people you offended will not be so easy to let us go, especially the Luo family.
Although our family has great business, if the other party uses means to punish us, we may not feel that good. We have an official position, so we must be more secure."
Chen Xiao naturally understood, but what should I do now?
Before he could say anything, Chen Wenshan smiled and said, "Dad saw that you are also very literary, why not...you should go to the imperial examination? If you pass the imperial examination, you will have the opportunity to become an official."
Chen Xiao rolled his eyes: "Important examination? I'm afraid I can't even pass the exam for a scholar."
"You don't need to take the exam for scholars. A few years ago, when you were fifteen or sixteen years old, my father went to the back door to get a scholar's reputation." Chen Wenshan suddenly said.
Chen Xiao was shocked: "A few years ago, didn't you say that I was seriously ill and mentally insane? Can you give me a scholar's reputation?"
Chen Wenshan smiled: "Child, you are still young. In this world, what can't be done by money or relationships?"
Chen Xiao nodded and was taught!
"But so what if you have the status of a scholar? I definitely can't do well in the exam..." Chen Xiao deeply understood that relying on his nine years of compulsory education, he wanted to take the imperial examination? Come on!
The imperial examination is not a test for Chinese, mathematics, foreign languages, but it is a test for the Four Books, Five Classics, Eight Essays, etc. Which junior high school graduate can do these things?
"Ding, host, do the task?" The system voice suddenly rang in my mind.
Chen Xiao said in his heart: "Stop making trouble, I'm talking about the important things now."
"Ding, host, is the best answer to the provincial examination for this mission reward?"
Chen Xiao suddenly felt the spirit. The provincial examination was a process of the imperial examination. Basically, excellent scholars took the exam. If they passed the exam, they would be juren.
Just a juren can become an official, but he is just a minor official of the seventh and eighth rank.
The juren went to the imperial examination again, and then passed the palace examination and became a Jinshi. He was considered a disciple of the emperor and could be an official below the fifth rank.
The top three are the top scorer, the second scorer, and Tanhua.
Now, the system says that Chen Xiao can get the best answer to the provincial examination by completing the task. Doesn’t it mean that if Chen Xiao completes the task and goes to the provincial examination, he will win safely?
So he hurriedly asked, "What task is it? Tell me!"
"Ding, mission: protect Long Jiuling!" the system said simply.
Chen Xiao frowned, what does it mean? Protecting Long Jiuling? Is there any danger in Long Jiuling?
This task made his originally anticipated heart suddenly raise.
Although the answer to the imperial examination is important, it is nothing compared to Long Jiuling who has been with him for some time.
As the first person I met in this world, she was still a beautiful woman with a beautiful face. Chen Xiao deliberately soaked her from the beginning.
Although many embarrassing things have happened these days, the real relationship has also been established invisibly.
Although I don’t know if Long Jiuling is interested in him, it can be seen from the fact that Long Jiuling has never asked to leave that she is also used to being with Chen Xiao.
Even when Chen Xiao didn't know where to go, Long Jiuling still did not ask to leave.
This shows that Long Jiuling is already bound to Chen Xiao in his subconscious mind.
"What does it mean? Long Jiuling is in danger?" Chen Xiao asked, but the system stopped talking.
"Son? Son? What do you think about the imperial examination? " Chen Wenshan looked at Chen Xiao in a daze.
Chen Xiao came back to his senses, glanced at Long Jiuling, and then said, "Okay, and I will definitely pass the exam!"
"Oh, my son is domineering!" Chen Wenshan was very excited.
But he didn't know that Chen Xiao had such a certain word, not because he wanted to pass the exam, but because he did not want to hurt Long Jiuling, so he had to complete the task.
...
Wandering around the backyard of Chen Mansion, Chen Xiao looked at Long Jiuling and said, "From now on, I will never leave me!"
Long Jiuling was puzzled: "What's wrong?"
"There are bad people who may want to hurt you... In short, I have a bad premonition, I don't want something to happen to you!" Chen Xiao said.
These words were really persuasive when Chen Xiao said them.
"Well, I'll listen to you. Last time I was in the inn. If it weren't for your feelings, we might have..." Long Jiuling was scared for a moment.
She may not even know that she really has some dependence on Chen Xiao.
The two chatted for a few words and felt a little hungry.
So I went to find something to eat. There were some food at home, but there were no servants yet.
The family of four stood in the huge kitchen, staring at each other.
When the Chen couple enjoys happiness on weekdays, where can they cook?
Not to mention Long Jiuling.
Chen Xiao's face turned bitter: "No..."
Fortunately, he knows how to cook, so he is the one who sets the fire behind Yantai, one who cooks rice in one pot and the other who cooks vegetables.
Long Jiuling couldn't stand it and helped to burn the fire. Soon, he applied it like a little cat. He even stuffed firewood into it and almost pushed the pot away because he tried hard to put firewood in it.
Although he was busy, it was because of this huge kitchen that kept laughing. This scene was really strange... It was so happy.
At least everyone is really happy!
...
Dragon Kingdom Palace!
At first sight, I saw a palace with countless candles lit.
The middle-aged emperor with a national face, sat on the dragon throne with a majestic face, his eyes shot out terrifying light, staring at the commander of an imperial guard below, and said:
"People, found?"
"I found it, and I was at the home of Chen Wenshan, a newly dismissed county magistrate in Qingyang County under the imperial capital." The Imperial Guard spoke.
"It's good that I found it, she didn't find it?" the emperor breathed a sigh of relief.
"Go back to your Majesty, you were not discovered by His Highness the Princess."
The emperor said: "Why did she be dismissed from the county magistrate's house?"
"After investigation, His Royal Highness the Princess was rescued by Chen Wenshan's son when she encountered danger in the imperial capital, so she stayed at Chen Wenshan's house. And..."
The commander of the Imperial Guard suddenly shut up when he said this!
The emperor frowned, and a murderous aura spread: "Say!"
"Also, His Highness the Princess and Chen Wenshan's son seem to have a good relationship..."
