Gao Qiu, who finally returned to the court to discuss politics, happily entered the mansion and went straight to find his wife Huang.

"Madam, madam, the official family issued an order today that all children of officials of fifth rank and above who are ten years old or above must take the special examination."

"Why is this?" Huang asked curiously as she stood up to change out of her husband Gao Qiu's broad robe.

"I'm not sure about my husband, but the edict says that as long as he is an official's son who can pass the special examination, he can take part in the imperial examination at the end of next month."

"My husband is so happy. Could it be that he thinks our Zhang'er has a chance?"

Gao Qiu couldn't help but nodded proudly, took the cold drink from his wife and drank it in one gulp.

"Haha, that's natural. The officials made it very clear that this special test is not complicated.

All the officials' children only need to memorize the entire "Thousand-Character Essay". "

"This can be regarded as an opportunity for those unlearned and unskilled officials' children. Well, our Zhang'er is much better than those people. He can already recite the entire "Thousand-Character Classic" before."

Huang's eyes were shining, and her face was full of excitement.

"Ah, doesn't that mean that it will be easy for our Zhang'er to pass the examination?

Our Zhang'er is so smart and can pass the other examinations, maybe we can also pass the provincial examinations..."

Seeing that his wife Huang was almost losing her mind with joy, Gao Qiu, who had a stiff expression, quickly supported his wife.

"Madam, please calm down and wake up, our Zhang'er is extremely smart.

But he has just turned eleven years old, and is still a child. He started learning at the age of eight, and so far he has only memorized the "Thousand-Character Classic" and has not even had time to learn the Analects of Confucius. "

"Oh, I think too much..." After hearing her husband's words, Mrs. Huang couldn't help but darken her face.

After all, this was a dynasty in the Song Dynasty, when everything was of low quality and only those who were good at reading were in the Song Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, as long as you were a scholar, you were highly respected.

If you are an official who entered the imperial examination, there will definitely be a group of people shouting 666.

If you passed the Jinshi imperial examination and became an official, haha...then you are definitely a leader among scholars.

Countless people in the Song Dynasty would envy, envy, and hate you, and they would not think you were bragging if you praised the reincarnation of Wenquxing.

Gao Qiu and his wife Huang wandered to the courtyard where their son was, and saw the handsome and cute Zhang'er with red lips and white teeth, leaning lazily on the corridor at the door.

He was holding a book in his hand, but he was obviously distracted and his eyes were wandering around.

"Dad, Mom, why are you here?"

Gao Zhang also saw his parents arriving hand in hand. He quickly threw aside the "Analects of Confucius" in his hand and hurried forward to greet them.

"Zhang'er, you are actually reading a book?"

Huang, who was originally in a bad mood due to the shock of her husband's words, suddenly brightened up.

"Mom, the child has nothing to do just now, so I just took it and looked at it casually. Well, I really just took a casual look at it."

My mother, Mrs. Huang, copied the book and suddenly became energetic.

"Look, sir, our Zhang'er is actually reading The Analects of Confucius."

"Can my son understand?"

This made Gao Qiu a little suspicious, and he looked at this well-behaved and filial son carefully. Could it be that he was really a good scholar?

"Ah this..." Facing the fiery eyes of his father and mother, Gao Zhang's scalp went numb.

"I just started to read it, and I can understand it a little bit."

Gao Qiu saw his wife Huang's frequent glances, and at this moment, he decided to go straight in.

"Zhang'er, do you know that the official family issued a decree today that all officials' children who are over ten years old must take the imperial examination this year."

Gao Zhang, who had known for a long time that since the talented Hunjun asked him to take part in the imperial examination, would definitely do some tricks, heard this.

After working hard for a long time, he finally showed a shocked expression.

"Dad, what do the officials want to do?"

Gao Qiu looked at Gao Zhang. No matter how he looked in his eyes, he felt that his son was the best and smartest.

"Perhaps the officials hope to select young talents like my son from among the officials' children."

Gao Zhang grinned, trying hard to put on an innocent and cute smile, but there was a desolation in the smile that was rustling in the wind and cold in the water.

Then he saw his biological father pat his shoulder confidently, and then raise his strong arm.

"But my son will definitely be able to pass the other exam."

When Gao Zhang heard this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, Dad, who gave you the confidence? me?

The mother-in-law Huang on the side actually looked like she was taking it for granted, smiling and holding Gao Zhang's hand.

"Look, husband, our Zhang'er looks handsome and elegant. He looks like a scholar at first glance."

"Father, mother, can we not be blindly confident? After all, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment."

"No, no, no, Zhang'er, the reason why my father is sure that you can pass is because this year's special test is very simple for you."

#####

"As long as you can recite the entire Thousand-Character Essay, you can pass the exam?"

Gao Zhang's eyes also lit up. Doesn't that mean that he can indeed hold the snail with three fingers, and he is sure of it.

"Yes, that's why your mother and I are so confident in you."

Watching my father talking proudly about today's official edict, and my mother's happy and accomplished smile.

Gao Zhang put on a well-behaved and knowledgeable expression, but his heart was filled with ups and downs.

The epic difficulty threshold for participating in the Jinshi Imperial Examination has actually been lowered to a level that even elementary school students can pass.

Presumably now, those dignitaries of the fifth rank and above in the Song Dynasty are celebrating at home.

Hmm... I don't know if my junior brother Cai Laoliu, who was beaten three times by me, can pass this special test.

However, considering that his father's traitor Cai Jing is very skilled in fatherly love.

It must be possible for his son to experience the pain of flesh and blood, and at the same time, his IQ may be temporarily improved.

Gao Zhang felt that he was worthy of being a very responsible senior brother, and it was definitely not because of the Thousand Guan Shu Xiu that he reminded him of that fat lao Liu.

As soon as his parents left, Fu'an came over secretly and reported in a low voice.

"Sir, Master Lu has come to ask for an audience. Master, do you want to meet him?"

"Oh...how could I forget this serious matter?"

Gao Zhang raised his hand and patted his forehead, quickly stood up and walked outside the house. It seemed that he too lacked a sense of existential crisis.

He actually forgot to go to Coach Lu's wife to test her to see if she was actually her little cousin.

Gao Qiu and Huang just left and just returned to the front hall when they saw their son Gao Zhang rushing towards the door of the mansion.

After calling the servants to inquire, they found out that it was a Forbidden Army instructor who came specifically to see Zhang'er.

Huang heard this and asked her husband in a low voice.

"Could he be the righteous man who saved our Zhang'er?"
