On April 20th, Baitan Academy recruited. Because there are many candidates for Jinshi in the Baitan Academy's examination, anyone who wants to pass the scientific examination to enter the official position wants to enter it to study. But Baitan Academy enrolls students once every three years, and only recruits a hundred people each time, which leads to overcrowding every exam.
The night before the exam started, Brother Xuan was a little nervous: "Ayou, you can sleep with me!" He couldn't sleep when he was nervous, so he wanted Brother You to accompany him.
Brother You didn't refuse either.
At night, Brother Xuan was tossing and turning in bed and couldn't fall asleep. Brother Xuan was speechless: "Brother Brother, are you so? It's just an exam. You can't pass the exam based on what you have learned for many years." The four brothers talked about studying. Brother Xuan definitely ranked first, even Qi Hao couldn't compare it. Although Qi Hao never forgets, he has too much to learn.
"What if you didn't pass the exam?" After finishing speaking, Brother Xuan said worriedly: "If you didn't pass the exam, not only was it embarrassing, but Dad was afraid that he wouldn't wait to see me."
Brother You was too hot and kicked the quilt, and then said: "Brother Brother, you are so presumptuous. If you don't talk about you, even if I go to the exam, I will definitely be able to pass the exam."
Brother Xuan didn't believe this.
Brother You explained: "Think about it, the two gentlemen who taught us are both great scholars in the world. The gentleman at Baitan Academy is not as good as them. Therefore, this exam is definitely not difficult." Even Baitan Academy can't pass the exam. Isn't it because of so many years of hard work in vain
Brother Xuan was too nervous. It’s the first time he has taken an exam when he grows up! It is precisely because of knowing this that Brother You will tell him so much.
Brother You said: "Brother Brother, you have to think about making your parents happy when you come back for the first exam."
Brother Xuan said unconfidently: "I heard that many people take the exam, and many of them are young talents."
Brother You rolled his eyes and said, "Those are all blown out. It is also my parents who kept us low-key, otherwise you must be the number one talented scholar in Beijing with your third brother." In order to build up confidence for Brother Xuan, Brother You did it too.
Brother Xuan was overjoyed: "Ayou, I didn't expect you to believe me so!" Brother You always attacked him before, and it was the first time he praised him like this.
"Your studies have always been very good, even Mr. Du and Master Mu often praise you. Therefore, you must have confidence in yourself and believe that you will be able to pass the exam." In order not to put too much pressure on Brother Xuan, Brother You Er added another sentence: "Even if it is not the first, then you have to take the top three."
Encouraged in this way by Brother You, Brother Xuan built up confidence: "I will definitely strive to get into the top three."
At the beginning, Baitan Academy will be divided into three games, one for each day. The content of the examination involves a wide range of subjects, including four books, five characters, eight rhyme poems and scripture questions, as well as astronomy, geography, political affairs, poetry and music.
Two months in advance, Mu Jingsi started to give him a small stove, just to cope with the exam at Baitan Academy. Before the exam started, Brother Xuan was still anxious, but after seeing the exam questions, he immediately felt relieved. Most of these questions have been done.
In order to accompany Brother Xuan in the exam, Brother You took three days off. Knowing that Brother You was to accompany the exam, Han Jianming readily approved the leave. Yun Qing and Yuxi only knew afterwards.
Yun Qing frowned and said, "It's just an ordinary exam, so why don't you need someone to accompany you?"
Yuxi smiled and said, "I'm afraid that Brother Xuan is a little bit stage fright, and Brother You specially cheered him up. This also proves that brotherhood is good!" It is a good thing that brotherhood is good.
"But he took a leave without our permission, is this a good thing?" The leader of the soldiers, the most annoying is the person who leaves without permission. Unless it is a dead person in the family or other important matters, no leave is generally granted.
Yuxi smiled and said: "Many parents have specially asked for leave to accompany their children to the exam. We can't accompany them personally. Couldn't we stop Brother You?"
After a pause, Yuxi said again: "You guessed that Brother You was afraid that you would disagree, so he chopped it out first and played it later."
It is very tricky to fight against Brother You. Yun Qing couldn't help but said, "Where do I have a son? I have given birth to a few debt collectors."
When Yuxi heard this, he smiled and said: "If it comes to debt collection, Zaozao is more appropriate." Brother You is very intimate, unlike the stinky girl Zaozao, who has only come back three times since he got married.
Without comparison, there is no good or bad. After hearing Yuxi's words, Yun Qing said, "What does she do in the princess mansion every day? Is she too busy to come into the palace to see us?"
"Stick with Jin Yu every day, I can't bear to leave in one step! Both of them are about to become conjoined babies." With a husband, he left his parents aside.
The corner of Yun Qing's mouth twitched.
Yuxi said amused: "I was arguing about going to Changzhou before, but I don't even mention it now. This beauty is really a mistake."
Yun Qing coughed and said, "The two are newly married.
After speaking, Yun Qing remembered what had happened to the Tianwu family, the newly married couple of Zaozao: "There are no moths out there recently, right?"
Yuxi smiled and said, "Don't worry about this, the people from the Wu family can handle it." Simple and straightforward methods are actually quite good for the Wu family's thoughtful people.
The test results will come out in three days. Brother Xuan's psychological quality is not very good, and after the exam, he feels uneasy. I was so worried that I had no appetite and stopped eating after only a few bites.
Yuxi saw it and smiled and asked, "I'm afraid I won't be able to pass the exam?" This child, compared with Qihao and the others, is not even a little bit worse than Qihao's psychological endurance!
Brother Xuan looked at Yun Qing with a serious face, hesitated and nodded slightly: "Yes." Not only was he afraid of failing the test, but also afraid of being reprimanded.
Yun Qing didn't like Brother Xuan's weak chicken the most, and when he was about to scold him, he saw Yuxi staring at him.
With a deep breath, Yun Qing said, "If you don't pass the exam, you won't be able to pass it, and it's not a big deal." This is so hard that it makes people feel awkward to hear it.
Yuxi didn't say anything to appease, but smiled and asked, "Do you think you didn't do well in the exam?"
"It's all done." As for how well the test was done, he had no idea.
Yun Qing looked at Brother Xuan like this and felt that he could not pass the exam. He still didn't know how well he was in the exam: "If you didn't pass the exam, let Mu Jingsi recommend you to study in the academy." In addition to the exam, Baitan Academy It can also be recommended by Confucian scholars. It's just that the two slaps who can be qualified to recommend are not available, and the other big scholar can only recommend one person.
Brother Xuan lowered his head and said nothing. It would be too shameless if you didn't get a recommendation from Mr. Mu.
Yuxi smiled and said: "Don't listen to your father's nonsense, I heard Mu Jingsi said that this test is difficult, and many candidates haven't finished it. If you finish the test, you will definitely be able to pass it."
Brother Xuan was surprised: "Mother, did you ask your husband?" Brother Xuan always called Mu Jingsi his husband, while Brother You called him Master Mu.
Yuxi nodded.
Brother Xuan showed a smile: "I thought..." Before the exam, Yun Qing and Yuxi didn't say a word. He thought the two of them didn't care about his exam!
Yuxi raised his hand and touched his head, and said, "Before the exam, my parents didn’t mention it, not because I didn’t care about you, but because I was afraid of putting you under pressure. Don’t worry, Mu Jingsi also said that you have a solid foundation and will definitely be able to take the exam. Up."
With these words, Brother Xuan's mood improved a lot.
Back to the Palace of the Qing Dynasty, no ministers came to report the matter at this time. Yun Qing said, "Why is this kid so unconfident?"
This matter, Yuxi also seriously thought about this before: "This kid is more sensitive at first, and we don't care enough about him, so we have developed this temperament."
"We still don't care enough about them? Go and see who is so used to children like ours?" To be precise, almost no dad is so used to children.
The fathers in other people's families would beat or scold their children, which was too harsh. It was the nightmare he had had that had a shadow in his heart, so he couldn't spoil a few children.
Yuxi smiled and said, "Compared with Qihao and You, the time and energy we spend with Arui and Ayou is very small." Being busy at first, coupled with limited energy, it is impossible to do everything. .
Yun Qing couldn't refute this, "But A Rui is not good?"
Yuxi said: "A Rui has a temperament like you, so carefree, and I don't take many things to heart. Brother Xuan is like me before, thinking hard and thinking more."
"Then what should I do?" Although his mouth is always disgusting, he doesn't want his children to be well.
Yuxi smiled and said, "So let him go to the academy. Let him know that he is actually very good, and build confidence. In this way, I won't think about it anymore."
Yun Qing finally understood, and said: "You mean he has no confidence, do you think he is bad?"
Yuxi nodded: "Don't mention Zaozao and Liuer, that means they are four brothers. Qi Hao never forgets to learn things as soon as he learns things. You are often praised for his cleverness and weirdness, and Rui's martial arts are so good that you like it. . Only Brother Xuan, there is nothing to tell."
Thinking about it carefully, Yun Qing felt that Yuxi also made sense.
Yuxi shook his head and said, "Fortunately, I'm not born again, or I must be exhausted." Teaching children is really a profound knowledge. Fortunately, every time she encounters something, she will reflect on it and correct her mistakes.
When Yun Qing was about to speak, he heard Sponian's voice outside: "The emperor, Cheng Anbo begs to see you."
In front of business affairs, housework can only be put aside for the time being. Yun Qing said in a deep voice, "Let him come in!"
Yuan Ying came this time to talk about distributing military pay and supplies to the army.
After half an hour, Yuan Ying resigned.
Yuxi rubbed his temples and said to Yun Qing, "The war ended earlier, so there is no need to raise so many soldiers and horses." Excluding the local army, they now still have 1.2 million regular troops. The annual expenditure of these soldiers and horses is a heavy burden.
"Within three to five years, I'm afraid it won't be done." Yan Wushuang managed Liaodong very well, it is not so easy to win Liaodong.
Yuxi nodded and said nothing.
Although Yun Qing and Yuxi did not deliberately ask about the examination results of Baitan College, they still knew the next afternoon.
Mu Jingsi smiled and said, "The emperor, the queen, and the third prince took the third place." This year, there were more than 600 students who wanted to take the test of Baitan Academy, but only one hundred were admitted in the end, and the admission rate was extremely low. As Xuan Ge'er's teacher, Mu Jingsi naturally knew his details. At that time, he told Yuxi that if there were no accidents, Brother Xuan would definitely pass the exam, and he would be ranked higher. However, he did not expect to achieve a good result in third place.
Yun Qing asked hurriedly, "Are you sure?"
Mu Jingsi smiled and said, "This is what Hu Yi's said himself, there is nothing wrong with it."
"You didn't tell him the identity of Brother Xuan, did you?" Brother Xuan was aliased Ning Xuan, and he was the grandson of Mu Jingsi's cousin.
Mu Jingsi smiled and shook his head and said, "No. I still want him to accept the third highness as a closed disciple, how can I tell him." Although Hu Yiqi is very knowledgeable, he has a strange temper, so he did not enter the court as an official. If he knew that Ning Xuan was the third prince, he might not accept Brother Xuan as his disciple.
After accepting the sixth student, Mu Jingsi said that he would not accept any more disciples. Although he liked Brother Xuan very much, he confiscated him.
Yun Qing personally came forward to invite Hu Yihu to be an official, but was rejected. Yun Qingdao still remembers this matter: "A Xuan may not be willing to worship him as a teacher."
Mu Jing is embarrassed, the emperor is taking grudges for what happened in the beginning! But he knew that Yun Qing wouldn't be angry with Hu Yi, so he didn't say anything good.
In fact, if it weren't for Qi Hao, Mu Jingsi would not be willing to be an official. Yan Wushuang's propaganda was so good that everyone in the world believed that Yun Qing was a ruthless man who wanted to kill a warlike man, while Yuxi was a scheming and cruel temptress. Preconceived, these scholars naturally have no good impression. Who would have thought that after becoming a teacher for a few princes, he realized that it was not the case at all. No matter how wise people are, they will be affected by rumors.
Yuxi said to Yun Qing, "I'll tell A Xuan the good news. He will definitely be very happy when he knows it."
Not to mention Brother Xuan, Yun Qing was also very happy: "Send someone to call Zaozao to come back and have a meal together tonight." This stinky girl has a husband and forgot her parents.
"Really? Am I third?" Although Brother You asked him to set his goal as the top three before, he also agreed, but he really didn't have this confidence.
Yuxi nodded and said, "Mu Jingsi must be right. Xuan'er, you have worked hard during this time." Brother You worked hard during this period of time. He read books every day until the end of Haishi, and then got up at the beginning of Maoshi.
Brother Xuan smiled shyly: "It's fine if you don't shame your parents." So, the hard work is also worthwhile.
Hearing this, Yuxi's heart choked. The child really thought too much: "The exam is so good, and my parents have to reward you. Tell my mother, what gift do you want?"
Brother Xuan hesitated.
Yuxi put her hand on his shoulder, and said softly: "Whatever you want, just talk to your mother." Even if it is difficult, she will try her best to satisfy Brother Xuan's request.
Brother Xuan looked up at Yuxi and said, "Mother, I want my father to take me out to play for one day." Yun Qing has never taken him out to play alone.
Yuxi was taken aback.
Upon seeing this, Brother Xuan lowered his head and said, "You and Dad are so busy, I shouldn't make this request."
"You kid, how big is this, let your father take you out for a day tomorrow." Enduring the grief in his heart, Yuxi asked, "What else do you want?"
Brother Xuan shook his head: "No more."
ps: The second one is late, so let's watch it tomorrow! (.)
