Chapter 778 Palace Examination
"I didn't expect that they would spend together. This was a happy event." Li Wenchong's face was full of joy, and he was talking to Gu Qingling with a smile.
One is her grandson and the other is her grandson-in-law, which can be said to be "double happiness".
Gu Qingling was happy when she heard this, but for some reason, she suddenly said, "Both of them have both been hit, so others will not suspect that they are in the joint efforts, right?"
"Uh...why do you think so?" Li Wenchong's expression was strange.
Gu Qingling looked at him and said, "They are brother-in-law."
"So? There is no shortage of brother-in-law in this world. That Lord Liu, his son married the girl from Lord Zhao..." Li Wenchong said, "And, that Lord Zhou..."
It is simply normal for officials in the court to marry each other.
Which parent doesn’t want their children to marry better?
Since you have become an official, your children's marriage partner will naturally have to be "equal to each other". This equal to each other, then...
"Unless there is a problem with your brain, your good daughter will not marry a family of equal status, but let her marry some people in the lower family? This has been the case since ancient times."
Well, Gu Qingling can't refute it.
If you have a good match and a good match, you will naturally have a certain perspective on the Internet.
It’s better if you are a small official, you can marry a girl if you choose a wealthier family, but if you are the daughter of a high-ranking official, who should you marry?
Either you are rich or powerful, you will always have the same connection.
Even if the person you marry is not an official, there must be an official in his family, otherwise he will be in decline without a generation or two.
Unless it is a last resort, most people will not choose this way.
There are many brother-in-law in the court, but they are not very famous, have no official status, and have no disputes over interests, so they did not attract people's attention.
The one with the most marriages is probably the royal family.
The more important the officials in the court are, the more likely they are to receive the attention of the emperor, and the more likely they are to get married.
For example, the mother of the eldest prince, "Concubine Yu", is the "Taibao Mansion" which comes from one of the three divisions.
When he arrived at the eldest prince's concubine Zhou Xuanrui, his father was also an important official in the court.
After seeing this, Gu Qingling was shocked to find that everyone felt that the eldest prince's mansion was not favored, but Concubine Yu was born with a very high origin, and the eldest prince's concubine was also born with a good family.
So, where do you see from the fact that the eldest prince Li Jian is not favored?
Could it be that the eldest prince Li Jian was named the Prince of Ye County later than the second prince Li Jinjin?
Gu Qingling touched her chin and felt that it was really possible.
After all, the eldest prince Li Jian was named Prince of Ye and was still the matter after she traveled to this world. At that time, the second prince Li Jin was named Prince of Jin for several years.
In addition, the second prince Li Jin made achievements and was often praised, so everyone believes that the second prince Li Jin is more favored and has more hope of inheriting that position.
Gu Qingling felt that she had discovered the "truth".
But she didn't say this.
In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the palace examination.
Gu Qingling and Li Wenchong personally sent Yao Anhong and Huo Botao in.
Among them, Li Wenchong was able to establish himself in the government because of his identity.
Therefore, when the two arrived at the palace examination site, they found that Li Wenchong, who had just broken up, was standing next to Emperor Mingguang.
They had no official position and could not face Emperor Yan directly, so they could only see the corner of Emperor Mingguang's robe.
In my ears are the examination rules that the eunuch is reading.
Everything, my family has already explained it in advance, but it sounds like another way of saying it.
The two of them knew that although they were a little nervous, they were a little calmer after listening to the familiar examination room planning.
Especially Yao Anhong, when he found that Li Wenchong was at the scene, he relaxed.
Because he knew that as long as he did not commit the crime of beheading, even if he made some minor mistakes in the examination room and Li Wenchong pleaded with him, his life would not be in danger.
at most……
At most, he was demoted and could not be the imperial examination again.
If it were before, Yao Anhong would definitely think that it was a serious matter to be dismissed from fame and fortune, but since Gu Qingling told him that his health and safety were the most important. Gradually, Yao Anhong also felt that perhaps fame and fortune were very important and could prove himself, but more importantly, he was.
If his fame and fortune are gone, he is still alive, and he can have another way out; but if his life is gone, it is a white-haired man who sends a black-haired man who has nothing left.
“The exam begins…”
With the eunuch shouting, the examinees sat in their seats.
In a short while, someone sent the test papers.
When Yao Anhong saw the content, he was a little surprised. He was actually a topic related to the locust plague?
Huh?
Didn’t the test be done?
However, the content of the test is relatively detailed and is a specific way to treat locust plagues.
Yao Anhong was fortunate to help Yao Jiuye sort out the Locusts chapter of "Bowuzhibao" and learned a lot. Today, it seems to be a bigger topic - how to manage or defend against the locust plague in the Ming Dynasty for a long time.
After a moment of silence, Yao Anhong picked up the draft and started moving.
If he asks other questions, he may be a little confused, but this question...
It's simply a point-givea question.
...
After the exam, Yao Anhong breathed a sigh of relief.
He has already worked hard, and the final outcome depends on God.
He didn't know what was going on with others, but he had finished the exam and he relaxed.
After leaving the examination room, a eunuch was waiting there.
"Master Hong, my master's servant is here to wait for you."
Yao Anhong was slightly surprised because the person who came was not someone else, but Rong Ge, the personal eunuch who was beside Li Wenchong. In addition to the old lady Gu Qingling and Emperor Mingguang, how many personal eunuchs who could use Li Wenchong to influence him?
But now, Rong Ge showed him the way with sincerity.
It turned out that Li Wenchong was afraid that he would be "calculated" after the exam, so he arranged for Rong Ge to come over. This place is no better than elsewhere, and it is just the same as the harem. If he is not familiar with the place, it will be difficult to deal with it at that time.
Sure enough, as soon as Rong Ge took Yao Anhong away, a face-to-face eunuch came to him and said he was here to find Yao Anhong.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Huo Botao took a few more glances and said, "Oh, Master Yao has left."
"Why are you leaving? Slave... Slave is still here..." The young eunuch looked shocked.
Huo Botao didn't say much, as if he didn't know it.
The little eunuch had no choice but to turn his body away.
Afterwards, when Huo Botao and the eunuch arranged by Princess Cheng County left, they told Princess Cheng County about this matter.
Princess Cheng's face changed slightly: "You haven't encountered this situation, right?"
Huo Botao said: "Someone has indeed come to find his nephew in the middle, but you explained before that unless Qing and his father-in-law took him personally, the nephew cannot go with anyone, so the nephew made an excuse to delay and waited until Qing and his father-in-law appeared before leaving with Qing and his father-in-law."
"I knew that those guys would definitely not give up." Princess Cheng gritted his teeth, thinking that Prince Cheng had not even come back for the New Year, and wished he could tear off a layer of skin from those people.
She told Huo Botao and his cousin Li Juncai to go and play, so she called Prince Li Feng over and asked him to secretly pass on a message to Prince Chong's mansion.
On the Huo family, she can say hello in person, but Huo Botao is also the grandson-in-law of Princess Chong, so she still has to say hello to him.
Gu Qingling was angry when he heard this: "What do they mean? Just forget about plotting against Brother Hong, but they still want to take it together? Do they think the Yao family is easy to bully, or do they think that I, Gu Qingling, are easy to bully?"
One is her biological grandson and the other is her grandson-in-law. She dares to be fooled on such an important occasion in the palace examination. Isn’t this slap her in the face?
