1495. Chapter 1495 Outstanding (2)
Although Mr. Yan said that her husband should be able to pass the exam this time, she was not at ease and now she has confirmed that An'an's heart has been put into practice.
Qingshu asked with a smile: "How many titles have you taken?"
Hu Zi said with a smile: "The second aunt was 106 in the exam."
Qingshu felt a sudden blow. The total number of three in the exam was divided into three, one in the first place, the top three, namely the top scorer, the second place, and the second place; the second place starts from the fourth place, and the finale is usually determined by the emperor, the chief assistant and others. If this ends at one hundredth place, then Tan Jingye will be the third place. The third place is also called the same Jinshi. Some people joke that the third place is like the wife, which is the second room.
That's all, the future of the Jinshi of the Third Class is limited. There is an unwritten rule in the officialdom. It is difficult for officials who pass the Third Class to climb to the third class or above. Now, none of the six ministers of the court and the chief officials of each yamen were born in the Third Class.
An An was also very clear about these rules. After hearing this, her face turned pale and muttered to herself, "How could it be one hundred and six?"
Qingshu sighed at her like this and said, "Don't worry, there is also a palace examination! As long as you do well in the Jingye Palace Examination, you will not fall into the third place."
An An grabbed Qingshu's hand and said, "Sister, please help with the principles of justice."
Qingshu did not refuse, but said, "If your brother-in-law has time, I don't need to say that he can help with the scriptures, but you also know that he has been so busy that he can't go back to his home recently. But don't worry, as long as he is at home, I will let him go over and guide the scriptures."
Seeing her like this, Hu Zi dared not say the rest.
After comforting for a long time, An An calmed down and went back.
After she left, Qingshu asked, "Does Mei Yihang and Mr. Yan pass the exam?"
Hu Zi smiled and said, "Madam, all five of them passed the exam. Among them, Mr. Mei took the third place in the exam, and the second son of the Yan family took the fifth place."
The second son of the Yan family is Mr. Yan's grandson, and Mr. Yan's nephew also took the exam forty-nine. As for Qi Yixin, he got 81, and Tan Jingye was the worst among the five. However, this was expected, because Tan Jingye's knowledge was at the bottom among the five.
Hong Gu was a little incredible: "Mr. Mei was in third place?"
Hu Zi said happily: "Yes, I have read it three times, and my hometown, name and age are right or wrong."
Qingshu was also very happy. Mei Yihang not only passed the exam but also did so well, so her house could be sold at a higher price.
An hour later, Mei Yihang's wife Xiang came over to see Qingshu. This time she came here not only to send the promised 10,000 taels of silver, but also wanted Mei Yihang to stay for a while.
Whether it was Hao Sanchao or Xiang, they just hoped to take advantage of the Fengshui treasure land of the Fu family to go to Mei Yihang for a smooth exam. They didn't expect that they would have a good grade. They just passed the exam, even the third grade was happy. No one expected that they would get third place and entered the first grade. After getting this result, the whole family was crazy about it.
After being excited, Hao Sanchao felt that Fu Mansion was a Feng Shui treasure land. So he wanted Mei Yihang to continue living in the Fu family until the palace examination before going home.
Xiang agreed with this very much. Although her husband got the third place in the exam, who knew whether he could successfully participate in the palace examination, he would still live in the Fu family insurance.
Qingshu smiled and said, "Actually, Mei Jinshi was able to do so well in the exam because he was able to learn from him himself, so we didn't help much."
Xiang presented something that he brought and said, "I heard that Mrs. Fu, you like to collect copybooks. This copybook was accidentally exchanged by my uncle back then. I hope Mrs. Fu will like it."
Seeing her look of aches, Qingshu became interested. When Hong Gu put the thing in her hand, Qingshu understood why Xiang was so reluctant. This copybook was Wang Xianzhi's "The Goddess of Luo River", not a rubbing, but a genuine copy.
Qingshu opened and looked at it, and said, "A gentleman does not win over what he likes. It is okay to let Mei Jinshi live in the palace examination, just follow the previous rules."
I had previously collected 10,000 taels of silver when I lived there for half a month, but this time Qingshu gave me a discount. Mei Yihang only collected 10,000 taels of silver after living in the palace examination. However, she also made a request, hoping to lend her the copybook to watch for one month.
This copybook can be used as a family heirloom. The other party is not willing to give it to her due to the situation, so Qingshu will not want it.
Xiangshishe was not allowed to give this copybook to Qingshu at first. He didn't refuse when he heard that Qingshu should only pay attention to it for a month.
"Mrs. Fu, can my husband come here tomorrow?"
Qingshu shook his head and said, "It's better to come and stay after Mei Jinshi's illness is cured!"
Xiang thanked Qingshu sincerely, and then went back happily.
Fu Jingen came back before the sun set. When he entered the house, he happened to see Brother Fu playing in the yard.
Brother Fu hadn't seen him for many days, so he rushed over and hugged his thighs and said, "Dad, Dad, you're there, Brother Fu misses you so much."
Fu Jingen felt guilty when he heard it.
When the father and son entered the house, Bajiao said, "Master, my wife has been staying in the study from morning to now except for eating and lunch."
Because Qingshu said he was not allowed to disturb her, Honggu only waited outside the door and did not dare to go in.
Brother Fu said with a pout, "I have been calling my mother outside the door, but she just ignores me."
Fu Jingen was a little surprised and called Honggu to come and asked, "Why did the wife stay in the study for so long, but what's wrong?"
Hong Gu smiled and said the reason: "Mrs. After getting that copybook, she felt like she was treasured. When she entered the study, she couldn't bear to leave her. I guess the wife must have been obsessed with her just now, and she didn't hear the young master call her."
This means that Fu Jingen's trip now may disturb Qingshu and let him go later.
Fu Jingen nodded, and then called the butler: "You go to the Qi family and go to the Yan family in person, saying that if they are willing, they can come to the mansion to live in the palace for the examination."
The butler left.
It was not until dinner that Qingshu came out of the study.
Looking at Brother Fu'er's grievance, Qingshu touched his head and smiled, "I'm going to make golden shrimp balls and lotus root cakes for you tomorrow."
When Brother Fu heard this, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
Fu Jingen frowned and said, "You can read the copybook at any time. Now you are about to have a child, be careful not to get tired."
"I only have one month to return the copybook at this time next month."
Fu Jingen did not object to Qingshu continuing to observe the copybook, but made a request to her: "It must not be combined for more than three hours every day, otherwise I will return the copybook."
