Chapter 204: Old pussy

After failing the provincial examination, he still did not leave the next day. He came to the capital for a rare trip and stayed for a while. Moreover, the court gave him enough travel expenses and expenses. Suddenly, an edict was issued from the palace, causing all the students to cheer.

The edict of the young emperor, after a spring, said that there were many exams, and they also needed to obtain the qualification for the provincial examination, or the old scholars of the late emperor, etc., to obtain the opportunity to take the special exam. Special exams mean that those who failed the Jinshi multiple times will be booked and submitted. With permission, they will be given a special exam, and the special exam is given a special exam, and the palace exam is called the official exam, and the official exam is called the official exam.

After Li Shu came out of the Gongyuan, she wrote a book and it was very long. She discussed ten things: the national system, drought, speech, ministers, selection of officials, tribute examinations, disciplines, military examinations, seasonal orders, and entered the cabinet. Two of them were about the imperial examinations, one was about the tribute examinations, and the other was about the tribute examinations. When discussing the tribute examinations, it was said that there were too few people to choose, and it was difficult to complete the examinations in a few days. It was difficult to discover all the talents from it. Therefore, it was recommended to re-examine the examinations of the candidates who failed many times so that all the talents could be obtained.

It seems to be right... It's a big deal!

The Song Dynasty was not lacking in talents, but it was very eager for talents. On the contrary, there were too many talents, and many of them began to cause chaos, so there was no need to be so anxious about talents. Originally, redundant officials became one of the disadvantages of the Song Dynasty. This large-scale opening of the forum was not what the young emperor said. If a class could only admit dozens of people, it would not be a big deal. At this class, hundreds of people might be admitted. The fact was his advice that led to more than 800 special titles in this class.

These more than 800 people need to be awarded the title of officials.

And each term will add hundreds of people. One person is about to live in office for thirty years. It is very likely that more than 5,000 redundant officials will be born. How much does it cost to support a Song Dynasty official?

I don’t talk about salary, because there are too many names, including regular salary, millet, jobs, public money, field, tea and soup, rolls (travel expenses), kitchen materials, firewood, charcoal, and clothing materials, which may be as fine as possible, and milk powder, diapers, bellybands, and tips for picking up girls. For example, the Prime Minister and Privy Councilor were given 30 stalks of monthly salary, 30 stalks of silk, 30 stalks of silk, 100 taels of winter cotton, 30 stalks of grain each month, 70 stalks of clothing for the humble people, 1,200 bunches of food and clothing for the humble people, 1,600 bunches of charcoal per year, 70 stalks of salt per month, 1,600 stalks of salt per year... etc. Because there are too many later, the secretary of the history cannot go down.

As for the local county magistrates (more than 10,000 households) each month, the county magistrates of small county magistrates 12,000 yuan per month, and the grain of grain is five to three stones per month. It seems not much, only ten taels of silver is not too much. Don’t worry, behind it, tea, wine, kitchen ingredients, wormwood, charcoal, salt, and so on, as well as the grass for horses and the clothing and food for the staff, the food expenses are all subsidies of the state. Is it enough? No hurry, and the government also needs to provide support for the family members of the officials, and the family.

It is a subsidy for rice, noodles, sheep and other daily necessities. Is it satisfied? That is wrong, and there is also public money (entertainment expenses), the governor and the governor can reach up to 20,000 guan, and there is no cap on the upper limit. Don’t worry, there is another one, the land, the officials of all the roads, each with land, two capitals, and the 40 hectares of the vassal state, and the 35 hectares of the vassal state, and there are still seven hectares of the vassal states to the remote small county. Moreover, "the outside officials occupy the land, and most of them exceed the system of going on." Tenants rented the seeds and officials enjoyed the fruits.

To calculate less, on average, each imperial court official will spend at least 700 or 800 yuan a year, not including invisible income such as jobs and fields. What does it mean to spend more than 5,000 officials? Everyone in the palace cannot save this money without eating or wearing clothes!

The other ten opinions are mostly like this, but the little emperor didn't realize it. He thought yes, why did the Zheng family worry about the imperial examination? It was really accidental, so he issued another edict, and those who were admitted to the imperial examination were not concerned about their age. If they had passed the exam seven times, they could take the special examination. In fact, if they were just doing the same, they would be admitted as long as the answers were equal.

This edict was issued, and you can imagine the mood of the student. He only took the exam three times and four times. That doesn’t matter, just take the exam. Once, he took the exam once, even if he took the exam once every three years, he would be twenty-one years. From the age of twenty and at the age of forty-one, he would still live well, so there would be hope of becoming an official.

Hearing the thunderous joy in front of him, the grandson of the two young masters and Yan Rong, the shopkeeper Yan, ran out of the backyard. Sima Guang asked curiously: "Brothers, what happened?"

Zheng Lang, the three elementary school students, came out, and it was very eye-catching.

Erlang of the Cui family was sitting here and talked, but he didn't dare to tell the story of Zheng Lang's guidance on the examiner's personality, but the other two brothers said it. After hearing this, the students sighed for a long time and had benefited a lot. After just a few words, the two brothers were in high school. These three little guys were brought to each other every day, and two of them were extremely talented, which finally allowed the Zheng family to develop a monster that they dare not underestimate.

A master told the story.

Sima Guang said: "Wang Sanlang, look."

"The country is getting more and more redundant." Wang Anshi shook his head. He was greatly influenced by Zheng Lang and was immature in his mind, but his vision was long-term. He also said: "And the rules are certain, and it will be difficult to correct them in the future."

"Wang Sanlang, what are you talking about?" a sir asked curiously.

"The country has raised many redundant soldiers and redundant officials every year. This is why you are happy and there are more redundant officials." Wang Anshi said bluntly. Zheng Lang couldn't get rid of his sharpness for a while, and Zheng Lang didn't want to get rid of his sharpness, including Sima Guang's black-belliedness. Why do you need to get rid of his sharpness? As long as they correct their thoughts, it would be great. If Wang Anshi is not sharp and Sima Guang is not black-bellied, what would it be?

All of you don’t say anything.

However, many of you are very ashamed. You are so big. What are you doing when studying the country's national affairs? It is indeed a great man who can cry out to the point of saying Fan Feng.

Sima Guang whispered in Wang Anshi's ear: "Stop it, don't say much. After all, millions of students will benefit. If you ask Your Majesty to take back the edict, tens of thousands of students will hate you for saving the yuan. Let's learn to observe and don't cause trouble at this time."

"Yes," Wang Anshi said nothing.

The two young men didn't say anything, and they all got happy again and talked loudly. Wang Anshi's words just now left some shadows for everyone, and they didn't mention the matter of raising the enthronement, but they talked about a lot, such as gossip in the capital, or poetry, essays and songs. At this moment, more than thirty elder brothers broke in, and one of them grabbed a clerk in the shop and asked, "Where is the Saburo from Cui Zhizhou's family in Caizhou?"

The third brother-in-law stood up blankly and said, "What's the point of finding me?"

The head servant came to Cui Quanzhong, looked at it, and asked, "You are Cui Quanzhong."

"That's right," Cui Quanzhong looked at the servant with a fleshy face and a ferocious beard on his mouth. His two big arms were probably heavier than his thighs. He stood in front of him like a big iron tower, and his words were a little unscrupulous.

The servant also looked at him. It was indeed good. He was thin and tender and had a cleaner appearance than a girl, but he couldn't make a mistake. He asked the judge next to him: "Is he the Cui Jiasanlang?"

"Yes." The picketer next to him also replied carefully. Anyone who faced these thirty or so men would have trembling in his heart.

OK, it's him.

There is no need for two people to fight. It is a job done by ordinary ministers and servants. The servants in the palace were not born and died, and each one was a hero in the army. If the Song army was weak, it would be wrong. The Northern Song Dynasty lacked generals and soldiers were not weak. Although Dangxiang and the Khitans were cavalry, the same number was the Song army and the opponent's cavalry were rarely at a disadvantage. In other words, if the factors of war horses and command were abandoned, the combat effectiveness of the Song army was still above the Khitans and Dangxiang people, at least equal.

Of course, if a cowardly or a layman civil servant is the commander, all the soldiers are tigers, and most of them will be defeated.

The big man winked and understood. He was used to cooperating in the army. More than thirty people were divided into two teams, and all the soldiers stopped outside. Then he walked to Cui Quanzhong, handed over his shoulders, and walked out like a chicken, strides out.

My brother-in-law was anxious and asked, "Hey, what are you doing?"

After the servants gathered together, my brother-in-law couldn't even touch the side, and watched the third brother be beaten away by them.

Although it was getting darker, it was the time for the capital. This happened, and everyone was stunned. After more than a day, my brother-in-law realized and reported to the official.

When we arrived at Kaifeng Prefecture, all the officials in Kaifeng Prefecture were paid, but there were still yamen runners. My brother-in-law asked about the relationship, and the yamen runners spread their hands and said, "We can't make decisions, you come tomorrow."

The third brother was confused and asked to kidnap away. He could come tomorrow. Heaven knew what would happen that night. The eldest brother-in-law thought for a while and said, "We are Zheng Shengyuan's brother-in-law. Shengyuan went to Feng Shilang's mansion to discuss the classics. The third brother is a minor matter, and if the Shangyuan Palace Examination is delayed, it is a major matter."

"You are the eldest brother-in-law of the Yuan Dynasty?"

"yes."

The yamen runners became nervous. Some ran to Zhang Guan's mansion, the governor of Xinkaifeng, to report. When Zhang Guan heard that he was a little too big, he didn't think about it. The palace examination had not started yet. Besides, the Cui family's Sanlang did not do well, with more than 600. He used to be catching a son-in-law under the list, but he would not be snatching people on his shoulders and at home like this. After thinking about it, he led the yamen runners to the outer city and to Yanji Inn. At least he had to know who kidnapped them, otherwise how would he save them?

Zheng Lang was back at this time.

Listening to the two primary schools, he was stunned. Zhang Guan arrived and saving people was important. After a brief remark, Zhang Guan began to ask other students present.

The case of catching the son-in-law happened in advance, mostly thirty or forty previous candidates from the provincial examination. These candidates will definitely be able to win the Jinshi, but before the palace examination, they are all half-covered. As long as those who are not engaged, please sit in the house and chat, and they will not talk directly. However, the third brother-in-law was too down and he was engaged to marry again, so he thought of the above and quickly rejected it. Zheng Lang even thought to Zhao Yuanyan, but shook his head. Zhao Yuanyan asked himself to make some trouble, and then let the Grand Marshal of the Capital disturb the military and horses in the capital to cultivate again. There was no need for this to be almost the same as kidnapping in broad daylight and still the candidate who was the provincial examination.

Zhang Guan asked, but had no clue, so he had to ask passers-by if he saw more than 30 big men quarreling with each other?

After asking for a long time, it was finally clear that he had some clues. However, Zhang Guan's head hurt a little and had no choice but to come to Wang Deyong's mansion.

But it's late.

The third brother-in-law called on the way, and the servant made him angry. He found a dirty rag from somewhere and stuffed it into his mouth. He calmed down and stole it to the palace. Wang De smiled and said, "You are so rude. I asked you to invite it, how can you get it?"

In fact, it was what he ordered the servants to do this. You can ask for it, but what if you don’t come, or other factors, so it’s best to make a decision. It is also in line with Mr. Wang’s purpose of being a human being, what does mother-in-law do? This is what makes you happy.

"Yes, I'll forgive you for your sins." The servant put the person down.

Cui Sanlang was still confused and knew each other and entered the political affairs hall with his brother-in-law. After seeing this boss, he asked dizzily: "See Wang Xianggong, why?"

"Come, come, sit."

Choi Quanzhong sat down.

"Are you unmarried?"

"Well, but after getting engaged in a marriage, I just didn't want to delay my studies and never got married."

"That's not getting married?"

"yes."

"That's good, Qin'er comes out."

At first, Wang De thought that his granddaughter was interested in Zheng Lang, which was a bit troublesome, but he guessed it wrong. Zheng Lang put aside his calm temperament and looked less than the Cui family Sanlang. He was used to seeing his grandfather's big black face all day long. Seeing Cui Sanlang a white face, and when his third brother-in-law heard that his brother-in-law had a Jinshi, he was proud and a little arrogant, which added to his style, which made Mr. Wang, the granddaughter, moved his heart. Later, he asked, but the one who had won the list seemed to have been married at home. He also had to thank Zheng Lang, otherwise the information of the Cui family and the other two would not have spread. It would be easier to get involved without getting engaged, so he would like to invite his grandfather.

Wang Deyong thought this was ridiculous, but he couldn't resist his granddaughter's moan. I wouldn't touch the Zheng family, but I could just touch the Cui family.

I was afraid of being verbose and accidents, and I was engaged to a marriage, which was particularly troublesome, so I came up with a direct way.

His granddaughter came out and after several generations of gene recombination, he looked pretty good. In fact, Wang Deyong himself is not bad either, he is too dark and majestic. The little lady of the Wang family is not as majestic as him. She looks very pretty, but she is also more heroic.

Wang Deyong said, "This is someone's granddaughter."

Cui Quanzhong was even more confused. Even if you were a general, and you received guests in a different way and were full of violence, why did you let your granddaughter see me? He had no choice but to owe him: "I have met the little lady."

Wen was wrinkled, and the little lady of the Wang family liked it even more. She was shy and said softly: "I have met Cui Sanlang."

Wang Deyong laughed and said, "Qin'er, you go down."

Looking at his granddaughter's expression, he knew everything, and then ordered someone to serve tea, but this matter must be dealt with quickly. The servant had to prepare tea. Wang Deyong said the matter was serious and said, "Sanlang Cui Jia, what do you think of a certain granddaughter?"

"very good."

"Just OK, I'm going to make the decision, you're not young, and my granddaughter is in the age of marriage, so let's get married for you."

Cui Quanzhong almost fell on the table and stuttered, "No, I'm engaged to a marriage in the middle of my life."

"What's the point of getting engaged? It's not a marriage. If you want to leave, others will impeach it. That's it."

"No."

"What's the matter!" Wang De slapped the table and rolled his big eyes. This man had killed the enemy since he was a child. The enemy he killed with his own hands alone was at least fifty. The hostility on his body can be imagined. Cui Quanzhong let him drink, so scared that he couldn't even say anything.

The servant brought the tea, which was the grandson-in-law. Cui Quanzhong disagreed and was also the grandson-in-law! Wang De relaxed with his face and said kindly: "Please use tea."

"I dare not, Wang Xianggong, the orders of his parents and the words of his marriage, and he dare not obey his orders after he was born late."

Why is this kid so stubborn? Wang Deyong thought about it, walked out, and gave instructions. The two servants pulled Cui Quanzhong back to the mansion and brought it into a house. The door was closed. Not only did the door be closed, but Cui Quanzhong also heard the sound of the servants locking the door.

What should I do if I encounter this master?

When a scholar met a soldier, he couldn't explain it clearly. Not only did he meet a soldier, but he was also a veteran soldier who killed people without blinking, and he couldn't explain it clearly. Then he looked up and saw that the little lady of the Wang family was sitting shyly. Seeing him looking at him, the little lady of the Wang family gave another blessing and said, "Disturbation of Sanlang."

"Uh, uh," Cui Quanzhong didn't know what to say, how could he lock himself in someone's boudoir?

The two sat quietly without saying a word. After a while, the door opened again. The servant took Cui Quanzhong to the living room. Wang Deyong asked: "Have you thought about it?"

"Your Majesty, it's really not possible."

"It's really not possible? I kindly invite you to visit me. Why did you go to my granddaughter's boudoir? If my servants found out, you would still want to stay overnight?"

“…”

"Tell me, was that the boudoir of a granddaughter just now?"

“…”
