Huang Jun thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up, as if he had discovered a major secret.
He glanced around and smiled mysteriously: "Did we realize that this time we asked for officials above the eighth rank?"
"That's right, the lowest level present is also sixth grade. I don't know why Zi Bian also included the children of eighth grade officials." Yin Jiu originally wanted to say junior official, but later felt that the statement was inappropriate.
Huang Jun smiled slightly and said mysteriously: "There is an official in Dali Temple who has a very good relationship with the little saint. Have you ever thought about it?"
"I understand, this Jingzi is very calculating. He took Yu Rushun into consideration because he has a very good relationship with the little sage Zhao Ping." Yin Jiu suddenly realized.
I don't know how good the relationship is, but I know that his father is a history of Zhizhi in Sichuan.
"It's not that the relationship is very good, but there are other reasons." Huang Jun smiled mysteriously again, with a hint of pride on his lips, "It is rumored that Yu Rushun's daughter is engaged to the little saint."
"What, the little saint is actually engaged to Yu Rushun's daughter?" Yin Jiu opened his mouth so wide that he could stuff an egg.
Chen Jie suddenly realized: "No wonder the Dali eunuchs didn't come. They must have gone directly to Yu Rushun."
Huang Jun looked at the scene again, but he didn't find any of his husband's husband.
But he will definitely not say it, and I believe others will not say it either. You all know it in your heart.
Huang Jun thought to himself, I wonder how many places these husbands want?
Of course, he was just guessing, and he didn't dare to ask.
As Chen Jie guessed, Yu Rushun was receiving people from Dali Temple.
He now also has a mansion in Lin'an, but he keeps a low profile and still lives in a public house.
Regarding his father-in-law, Zhao Ping was very good to Yu Rushun.
The future wife will hold 10% of the Lin'an Zhaojiazhuang workshop's shares. In addition, she will receive one hundred pick-up cards and pocket money every month. The latest items made in Zhaojiazhuang will be given priority for free, and she will also have a mansion of more than ten acres.
Yu Rushun felt that Zhao Ping gave too much and wanted to refuse but was stopped by his wife, Yu Mushi.
"Guanren, Ping'er is not bad at all. Giving these is a reflection of your care for your mother." Yu Mushi smiled like a flower and was very happy.
In her opinion, her daughter is Zhao Ping's real wife. She controls everything in Zhaojiazhuang, so it is normal to give her a little pocket money.
Yu Rushun thought about it and thought it was normal, so he nodded in agreement.
Now, Yu Yiniang is learning to play the piano, and the content she is learning is "Between Mountains and Rivers".
Yu Mu's family is from a scholarly family, so she doesn't need to pretend to be an outsider, she teaches it herself.
Some of the other younger children were reading and some were playing games.
Naturally, Yu Rushun did not disturb them. He took out his book and read it wholeheartedly.
At this time, the porter Yu Li came in and reported: "Official, Yang Zhengshu (Yang Xizi), the official of Xiangjuan of Dali Temple, wants to see you."
Yu Li is Yu Rushun's nephew. He is about fifteen years old and has a thin face.
He was a flexible man and was brought in as a porter. .
Yang Xi is about forty years old. He has a beard and a square nose. He is elegant and heroic.
"When Yang Xiang, a retired official, came to his humble residence, he was greeted by a splendid plum blossom, and he was greeted from afar by a subordinate official." Yu Rushun went out to greet him in person, and only saw Yang Xi coming in with two fishes in his hand.
Seeing Yang Xi holding two fishes in his hand, Yu Rushun wanted to refuse, but Yang Xi forced them into his hands.
Yu Rushun didn't know why he came in with the fish, and felt a little baffled, so he had to take the fish and give it to Yu Li.
Seeing Yu Rushun accepting the gift, Yang Xi showed a cunning smile in his eyes.
Yu Rushun personally made a cup of Drunken Spring Breeze tea for Yang Xi and placed it in front of Yang Xi.
Yang Xi saw not only the teacup but also the drunken spring breeze in front of him. His eyes suddenly lit up and he smiled.
The two chatted for a while, and Yang Xi smiled even more intensely when he saw that there were not only maids but also concierges here.
Yu Rushun felt a little uneasy as he watched Yang Xi's smile getting stronger and stronger.
For him, an eighth-grade official,
It is difficult to raise a family, and Zui Chunfeng cannot afford to drink, let alone a maid and a concierge at home.
Yang Xi's rank was from the sixth grade, which was a few grades higher than him. There were no concierges or servants at home.
Even the tea cups and Zui Chunfeng tea leaves were used for calculations and calculations. How dare they be so lavish as Yu Rusun.
If Yang Xi thought it was the proceeds of corruption, he wouldn't be able to wash it off even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
Yang Xi looked at the concierge Yu Li who was guarding outside and looked back.
With a smile on his face, he then asked tentatively: "Zimou, I heard that the little saint is your uncle, is this possible?"
Hearing this, Yu Rushun was stunned, and then he swallowed two or three times, as if his throat was dry.
Seeing Yu Rushun's expression, Yang Xi took a breath of air and was at a loss, like a clay or wood carving.
His face turned gloomy. Could the legend be wrong?
"My uncle is not yet, but he is engaged to his little daughter." Yu Rushun didn't know where Yang Xi heard it. He had never publicized this matter.
Yang Xi's eyes suddenly shone like stars, his face glowed with a moving light, and he felt relieved.
He smiled and said, "With the engagement, isn't it my uncle?"
"I can only say that I am my uncle-to-be." Yu Rushun gestured to Yang Xi to drink tea to relieve his embarrassment.
Yang Xi laughed loudly and felt completely relieved at this moment: "My uncle-to-be is also my uncle."
"Zimou, I have two dogs. I want to study at Zhaojiazhuang Academy. Can you check it out?" Yang Xi took a sip of tea and then asked tentatively.
"There's no problem with that. I'll give my uncle a letter to prepare for your son's admission." Yu Rushun agreed immediately without any hesitation.
Yu Rushun didn't know that various departments in the capital had found Jingdong to study, so he naturally did not refuse his colleagues' requests.
Yang Xi was overjoyed and asked tentatively: "Zimou, I heard that the little saint has special care for the children of officials in the capital. I wonder if Zimou knows about this?"
"This official doesn't know yet. After the official writes the book, I believe he will handle the matter properly." Yu Rushun smiled faintly. He fully believed that the little saint would take care of this.
"Care, what kind of care?" Yang Xi thought to himself, feeling a little embarrassed to talk about it and feeling a little anxious.
He swallowed hard and said slowly: "Zimou, I heard that the little sage promised Jing Zibian, the doctor of the Ministry of official affairs, to give preferential treatment during the examination."
Yang Xi finally revealed his purpose.
After hearing this, Yu Rushun already understood the other party's purpose.
Since you heard the promise made by the little sage to Jingzibian, why didn't you go to Jingzibian, the doctor, and instead came to me?
"Here, let me think about it." Yu Rushun did not agree immediately, and fell into deep thought while drinking tea.
Yang Xi was drinking tea leisurely, looking calm and relaxed on the surface, but actually he was very uneasy in his heart.
He now knew that officials from many departments in the capital came to seek help from Jingdong, but Jingdong only agreed to one quota for each official.
Now he takes advantage of his colleagues and wants to ask Yu Rushun to agree to two quotas, but he doesn't know if it's feasible?
Thinking of this, he drank tea slowly, looking at Yu Rushun from the corner of his eyes.
Yu Rushun looked calm on the surface, but he was actually a little uneasy.
If Yang Xi alone sent his children to study at Zhaojiazhuang School, there would not be much of a problem.
Based on his relationship with Zhao Ping, it is not impossible to send a few more.
Even if special care is required, it is not a big problem.
But the other party asked for special care during the exam, which was simply impossible.
What's more, he promised Yang Xi that there were other colleagues in Dali Temple who would also find him.
This is not a promise to Yang Xi alone, but will face the entire Dali Temple, so he has to give it full consideration.
Yu Rushun thought for a while and bowed to Yang Xi: "Yang Xiang is an official, is he a Jinshi?"
"Of course I am a Jinshi." Yang Xizheng stroked his beard and said,
He can be a real Jinshi, but still the same kind of Jinshi.
Yu Rusun, on the other hand, is not ideal in science and is only a Jinshi, so he is still an eighth-grade temple minister.
"Congratulations, congratulations." Yu Rushun stood up and bowed his hands respectfully, "Xiang Duanguan is really powerful. He can become a Jinshi. I am ashamed of myself."
Yang Xi returned the courtesy, although he said he didn't dare, but he was extremely proud in his heart.
Although you have a good uncle, your imperial examination background is worse than mine.
Of course, he would never say these words, but the smile at the corner of his mouth and the smile in his eyes could not be hidden.
You know, from studying to becoming a Jinshi, the chance is less than one thousandth.
So in this regard, even though he was not a Jinshi, he was still proud enough.
"Xiang Duanguan, since you came from the imperial examination, can you take care of the examination?" Yu Rushun took the opportunity to ask while Yang Xi was happy.
"Well, I heard that the little saint told Jing Zibian to take care of him!" Yang Xi's face was a little gloomy and ugly, and he suppressed his displeasure and said patiently.
Yu Rushun bowed his hands again and said calmly and calmly: "Xiang Duanguan, if you encounter a student who can't help himself up the wall, how should you take care of him?"
"Here, I think the qualifications of these two dogs are quite good. They both passed the examination." Having said this, he proudly stroked his beard.
Yu Rushun smiled sadly: "Xiang Duan Guan, Xiang Duan passed the examination for three consecutive times, but in the end he still failed to pass the examination for the same Jinshi. With the help of his father, he finally got a place for the same Jinshi."
Although Yu Rushun said it clearly, what he meant was that even if he passed the exam, it would be even more difficult to pass the exam.
"This," Yang Xi pondered for a while, looking at Yu Rushun with burning eyes, "how does the little saint take care of the children of Beijing officials?"
Obviously, Yang Xi was not satisfied with his answer and forced him to express his position.
Yu Rushun felt a lot of pressure. Yang Xi was obviously not alone, and there was Dali Temple behind him.
If he fails to handle this matter well, he will offend the entire Dali Temple.
He rolled his eyes a few times and finally said: "Although I can't take care of the exam, there is no problem with studying. Focus on taking care of it and go all out."
"Focus on your care and go all out?" Yang Xi bowed his hands and said, "Can you be more careful?"
"Focus on care and go all out. It's just a famous teacher teaching me. I'm in a separate classroom. How can I be satisfied with this?" Yu Rushun explained solemnly while returning the courtesy.
"This, this." Yang Xi stuttered a little and hesitated for a moment.
Yu Rushun thought for a while and continued patiently: "Xiang Duan officials, imperial examinations are all treated equally, and the little saint's scholar examination is obviously also treated equally. In the entire Song Dynasty, there are no exceptions."
Yang Xi did not speak, but fell into thinking while drinking tea.
"Xiang Duanguan, let me tell you the truth. The top ten disciples of Zhaojiazhuang Academy are either poor or bastards of the family. So as long as your master's qualifications are good, I believe that through the teachings of Zhaojiazhuang Academy, he will have a good future. Xiang Duan Guan also saw it. This time, in the Zhaojiazhuang Town Scholar Examination, the hundred people on the list were all arranged, and all of them were eating royal food." Yu Rushun saw Yang Xi's hesitation, and felt proud in his heart. Only Zhaojiazhuang dared to do this. Make a fuss.
"One hundred people, all eating royal food?" Yang Xi felt as if he was struck by lightning. He couldn't believe his ears. His mouth opened wide and he could stuff two eggs.
"How dare a lower official deceive official Xiang Duan? However, only the top three can recommend fellow Jinshi to the Ministry of Rites. The remaining seven of the top ten are officials. The remaining ninety are minor officials and miscellaneous officials." Yu Rusun I had to explain patiently and carefully, and finally said, "They can also take the imperial examination."
Yu Rushun made it very clear that in Zhaojiazhuang, there were two ways to go, one was the scholar examination, and the other was the imperial examination.
Yang Xi was overjoyed that his son had been admitted to the imperial examination. He believed that there would be no problem eating imperial food in Zhaojiazhuang. If he was better, he would be among the top ten, not to mention being a fellow Jinshi.
"Zimou, I would like to thank you for this.
Yang Xi stood up from his seat and bowed his hands respectfully.
Yu Rushun did not get out of the way this time. He only returned the courtesy after receiving a courtesy from him, indicating that he had accepted Yang Xi's request.
After seeing Yang Xi off, Yu Rushun heaved a sigh of relief and sat down to read again.
Unexpectedly, the porter came in and said, "My lord, Mr. Ding's official Ding Nian is asking to see you with a gift."
What is Ding Daquan sending his officials to do now?
He sent a butler alone, obviously greedy.
What to do, agree or not.
