Shi Xiangyun was about to say something, but he heard footsteps outside the door, and Tan Chun and Jia Huan arrived.
Pulling Shi Xiangyun out, only Feng Ziying and Jia Huan were left in the room.
He looked Jia Huan up and down, and seeing the excitement on his face, Feng Ziying smiled and waved her hand, "Brother Huan, sit down, don't be formal. Brother Feng went to Jiangnan, don't you know him?"
"No, Brother Feng, although I don't go out much, even in the house, I often hear your name mentioned by the master and the eldest master, as well as Brother Zhen and Brother Rong of Dongfu next door..." Jia Huan tried his best to calm down.
Calm down your emotions so that you don't get too upset.
Everything he said was true.
In the past three months, Feng Ziying's name has become so popular. It's not just that he was rumored to have been ordered to patrol the south of the Yangtze River.
He received a knighthood and was dismissed from the Imperial Academy!
You must know that the Hanlin Academy of Compilation has always only awarded the number one scholar in each subject to the new scholars. Even the second best is not available. This is a practice that started in the Ming Dynasty and was continued in the Zhou Dynasty. It can be said that Feng Ziying is the second best scholar.
It was the first time that Jinshi status was awarded the Imperial Academy's Compilation and Compilation as an exception, and it also created history!
Although this is a year later than the number one scholar, it is compiled from the sixth grade after all, and the second best and third best students in the same subject are still struggling in the editing position of the seventh grade.
"The servants sometimes send the old man out. When I'm with the servants from other houses, I often hear the servants from other houses mention your reputation. They all say that you are the first Hanlin Academy editor in our family of Wuxuns in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
, the first Shujishi is also the glory of our martial arts family..."
Feng Ziying is definitely not the first Jinshi from a Wuxun family. Jia Jing also passed the Jinshi exam, but Jia Jing was the top three Jinshi.
Among the children of the Wuxun family in the Great Zhou Dynasty, only a handful of them have even passed the second-level Jinshi exams over the years. Although Feng Ziying does not know the situation during the previous periods of Emperor Yuanxi, Emperor Tianping and Emperor Guangyuan, but thirty years after Yuanxi, there should not be a single Jinshi.
It was only in the 29th year of Yuanxi that Jia Jing passed the imperial examination.
In other words, he was the first person among the children of Wuxun to pass the high school entrance examination thirty years after Yuanxi. He was also the first scholar among the children of Wuxun in the entire Zhou Dynasty, and the first to compile the Hanlin Academy.
It's enough to write a book about him with great ink and color. It's no wonder that Jia Huan regards him as his idol.
Although Jia She and Jia Zheng were both mediocre people, they still had their own social circles. They mostly interacted with martial arts families such as the Four Kings, Eight Dukes and Twelve Marquises.
When the masters go to someone else's house to visit, or have a banquet or watch a play together, the servants will naturally gossip together.
The news that the servants can hear is naturally revealed by the masters of each family intentionally or unintentionally. With Feng Ziying's current popularity, it is reasonable for her to be discussed by the children of the Wuxun family.
"Brother Huan, are you here just to praise and flatter your Brother Feng?" Feng Ziying smiled and shook her head, "Okay, your Brother Feng's greatest advantage is that you are self-aware. How others brag about it is their business.
, I have carefully considered what I am like. But you, I heard that you have studied very hard this year?"
"Well, I dare not hide it from Brother Feng. Last year, Lang Ge'er and I worked hard at studying. At the end of last year, Mr. Xu Xue also said that I can take the children's examination next year at the latest." Jia Huan was confident.
Full.
The imperial examination system of the Great Zhou Dynasty basically followed the previous Ming Dynasty, but with the increasing population, there were some changes.
For example, before the Children's Examination, there were two exams every three years, while in the Great Zhou Dynasty, there were exams every year.
The children's examination is divided into three stages. Every February is the county examination presided over by the county magistrate, April is the prefectural examination presided over by the prefect or Shuntian Prefecture Prime Minister, and August is the college examination presided over by the academic administration. This is the preparation before the township examination.
If you pass the exam, you can be called a scholar.
If you are lucky enough to catch up with the triennial Autumn Palace Competition and pass the college entrance examination, you can directly participate in the Autumn Palace Competition. If you pass the test in one fell swoop, you can participate in the Spring Palace Competition the next year. There are many outstanding people who pass the test continuously every year.
few.
If you don't want to take part in the child examination, you must obtain the qualification to supervise children. But in Jia's house, Jia Baoyu may be able to do it with hard work, but Jia Huan will definitely not get such a good thing, so he can only take part in the child examination.
.
"Oh, that's good. You are only thirteen years old next year. Are you preparing to set a record? A thirteen-year-old scholar, are you trying to break the record of your elder brother Jia Fuzhu?" Feng Ziying teased.
A cold light flashed across Jia Huan's eyes, and he clenched the corner of his mouth slightly, and nodded heavily: "Brother Feng, not everyone is messing around like Brother Bao. There are still people in the Jia family who can study. I just want to prove that
At this point, I don't dare to expect to be a Jinshi at the age of fifteen like Brother Feng. If I can be a Jinshi before the age of twenty, I will be satisfied."
Feng Ziying acted as if she hadn't heard the contempt for Jia Baoyu in Jia Huan's words. She nodded and said firmly: "Brother Huan, you are ambitious! Brother Feng likes your spirit. Brother Zhu is a scholar at the age of fourteen. You may not be a scholar."
You can't be a scholar at the age of thirteen. If you are a scholar next year, Brother Feng will go all out and let you go to Qingtan Academy!"
Jia Huan's face turned red with excitement, and her thin cheek muscles were trembling slightly. She stood up and bowed deeply, "Brother Feng, thanks to your guidance and encouragement to me over the years, many times I read
It was too hard and I wanted to give up. It was your words that stirred in my ears, allowing me to continue to have the courage to persevere. If Jia Huan has any achievements in this life, it is all thanks to you, Brother Feng. Jia Huan will never forget it.
!”
After saying this, even Feng Ziying felt a little emotional.
At first, I just treated Jia Huan as a little transparent person, and I didn't expect that my unintentional act would be engraved in his heart like this.
Although this person's temperament is somewhat gloomy and extreme, it is not without reason.
It was not that he had not seen Jia Huan's disdain for Jia Baoyu in his words and a bit of hatred in his eyes, but thinking about it, as a concubine, he saw that this brother-in-law was pampered, everything was the best, and he wanted anything and benefits.
Giving priority to satisfaction can be said to be a matter of wind and rain. Everyone in the house, from the master, wife to the servants, regards Baoyu as their darling, but no one cares about him.
This feeling may be unbearable for anyone, and this emotion may have been brewing in his chest for a long time.
Even Feng Ziying didn't have the ability to change this temper all at once, and he didn't have the obligation to help Jia Baoyu and Jia Huan become brothers and sisters.
However, if Jia Huan is really a talented person, he will not hesitate to help him. After all, the other person regards him as his life mentor and spiritual idol, and he is still happy to maintain this personality.
"Brother Huan, I know that you have suffered some hardships in the house, suffered some grievances, and even heard some gossip, but Brother Feng has a message for you. Only by enduring hardship can you become a master.
How can we see a rainbow after going through wind and rain?”
Feng Ziying sat in the chair with her body tilted back, her chin slightly raised, her tone solemn, and her eyes focused.
"I feel that something is wrong with your emotions. I can understand it, so I don't intend to criticize you, but Brother Feng doesn't want to see you holding such emotions next time. As a man, you must be broad-minded and have a broad mind.
If you are able to punt a boat, you will be given a great responsibility by heaven. Please recite this article to me!..."
Jia Huan subconsciously stood up straight and recited this famous poem by Ya Sheng: "Shun was born in the garden, Fu Shuo was raised in the building,... Heaven has given great responsibility to this man.
One must first work hard on one’s determination..."
"Very good, then let me tell you, the reason why this hardship is listed in the first sentence is because it is what a man who wants to achieve great things must go through. To be tempted and tolerant is to sharpen your will and character.
, this is the best food for a man to grow up! Brother Feng has a message for you, your mind determines your caliber, your realm determines your level!..."
"..., if you only worry about trivial matters all day long and are troubled by such things, then how can you have the time to study and study? Brother Feng knows that you are suffering and in trouble, but that is not a reason. On the road to a man's growth,
It is inevitable that you will encounter various difficulties and obstacles. When you have overcome these obstacles and become successful in the future, you will feel that what you care about now is actually not worth mentioning at all!..."
Every word is precious and the words are sonorous, like thunder hitting the heart of Jia Huan who is standing aside. Jia Huan looks at Feng Zili with more fanatical admiration and respect. Only Brother Feng can say this.
The eloquent argument directly touched people's hearts but shook his mind. He even felt that he had failed Brother Feng's expectations.
"Brother Feng, I understand. I was wrong. I shouldn't worry about those boring things..." Jia Huan, who was so excited, even changed his voice and even stuttered a little, "..., I
I must keep your teachings in mind and focus on studying. No matter what the reason is, it is not the reason why I cannot study well. I will not take the gossip of those people to heart..."
"Well, it's good that you have this consciousness! Brother Feng will give you another poem. If he is strong, let him be strong, and the breeze will blow on the hills; if he is allowed to be ruthless, the bright moon will shine on the river! You should understand it well!"
Feng Ziying really couldn't find a suitable chicken soup for the soul to encourage the other party, but at this time, she didn't have any decent words and felt it was not interesting enough, so she could only use the words in the "Nine Suns Manual" to fool her, but
Don't tell me, it really sounds like a master.
Jia Huan's whole body was shaken, and he silently recited the "poem" given to him by Brother Feng in his heart. He decided that after he decided, he would ask someone to write down this poem, frame it, and hang it in his study.
As your motto in life.
