Zhang Ruitu also handles things neatly.

He is now the Minister of Rites, and it is not difficult to add someone's name to this list of honors.

In addition, Wang Zhijian quickly wrote a letter.

Then, he handed it over to his confidants and quickly sent it to Shandong.

Leave it to Shandong Academic Affairs.

Hurry up and resolve the issue of Zhang Haogu’s fame.

The Shandong academic administration has a good relationship with Wang Zhijian.

Belongs to the Qi Party.

Now, the general direction is that the entire Qi Party has begun to move closer to Wei Zhongxian.

Send a letter and tell me about Zhang Haogu and Wei Zhongxian.

Just explain the relationship.

Zhang Ruitu can be sure that basically there is no big problem.

What is the Ming Dynasty like now?

Zhang Ruitu is still very clear.

Isn't it just deceiving the superiors and concealing the truth from the inferiors?

The party struggle in the Ming Dynasty is now becoming more and more intense. Soon, the Qi Party, the Chu Party, and the Zhejiang Party will be incorporated into the eunuch Party by Wei Zhongxian.

Now, the Qi Party is obviously moving closer to Wei Zhongxian.

The Donglin Party cannot hold on for a few more years.

The Qi Party and the Donglin Party are very difficult to deal with, and they are about to be absorbed by the Eunuch Party.

Zhang Haogu woke up.

Then he found Zhang Ruitu looking at him eagerly.

Along with it, he also handed himself a name card.

When he opened it, Zhang Haogu was slightly surprised.

These dog officials really have a good eye for everything.

With just such a night's work, he already had a great reputation. In the 45th year of Wanli's reign, he was a boy who took the talent test, and in the 48th year of Wanli, he placed seventh in the Shandong Provincial Examination. After passing the exam, he became a master of civil examination.

These things need to be sealed in files and will need to be consulted in the future.

kindness!

With this calculation, the reference qualification for Tianqi's second year's examination has been obtained.

Official corruption!

Zhang Haogu sighed softly.

If it were Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, they would probably be executed by Ling Chi.

These bastards.

Of course, if this were Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhang Haogu would not dare to play like this.

This is because I think my life is too long.

The test paper has been written, and this is the second one. The main purpose is for Zhang Haogu to memorize it quickly, so as not to be found out about anything fishy.

For a moment, Zhang Haogu didn't know what to say.

The cross talk story continues!

If the problem is not big, second place is no problem.

"Thank you two adults!"

Zhang Haogu nodded and put away the examination paper: "I, Zhang Haogu, will definitely be grateful in the future!"

Zhang Ruitu said politely: "No, no, I hope Master Zhang will get along well with me in the future!"

………

………

Zhang Haogu put away the examination papers, and after being thoroughly familiar with them, he set fire to them.

Now that the fame is about to be obtained, Zhang Haogu breathed a sigh of relief.

The next step is to practice calligraphy.

He is not illiterate, but he does not understand traditional Chinese characters.

It takes some time to slowly learn traditional Chinese characters.

Learning is not a big problem, the most important thing is to write well enough to be recognized by talented people.

The best way is to copy.

I wrote it all morning.

Zhang Haogu felt that his handwriting was finally two or three points better, so he simply relaxed and went out to relax.

It’s also a good time to experience the prosperity of the capital city in this era.

Although it is the Little Ice Age, it is unlikely that you will starve in the capital wherever you go.

The interior of the capital city is still very prosperous.

Open the window.

Zhang Haogu stretched his waist and felt refreshed.

When the market outside is busy, you can hear the shouts of vendors selling goods from time to time.

Zhang Haogu called Zhang An, and the attendant was actually lazier than him. He slept so drunk that it seemed as if he would never get up again.

Zhang An's eyes were covered with bruises: "Young master, I didn't sleep all night last night. If you come to the imperial examination well, I don't have to worry about death. When I think of this, I feel that this life is too dull."

Taste, I have to take advantage of the time to have more fun, I still think of my mother..."

"Go! Go! Go!"

Zhang Haogu kicked Zhang An on the butt: "Don't talk about bad luck like your last words, let's go! You don't want to have fun, I will take you to go shopping on the street!"

"What's there to see on the street? When I was in Linqing, I often walked with the young master..."

Zhang An is used to being around Zhang Haogu, and his words are a bit unrestrained, neither too big nor too small!

"Stop talking nonsense, I asked you to go shopping with me and hurry out. The colorful world in the capital has just waved to me! Besides, the streets of Linqing are nowhere comparable to the bustling and bustling city of Beijing!"

This is indeed true.

Not to mention how miserable people were in other parts of the Ming Dynasty.

However, this is the land of the capital, where people come and go, and it is still somewhat prosperous.

In the words of history textbooks, it is the sprout of capitalism.

Outside Chang'an Gate in West Beijing

The street market behind the Dahong Archway is very lively, crowded with people, and there are many wine shops and tea houses. Wherever the fragrance of wine and tea can be smelled, the seats are packed. Sometimes you can hear the sound of storytellers tapping tables from those restaurants.

Small merchants and hawkers lined up on both sides of the street, displaying all kinds of things for sale.

Snacks and snacks wrapped in lotus leaves, various rouge gouache, all displayed with ingenuity...

Zhang Haogu was okay, Zhang An was dazzled by the dazzling array of things.

"Look, young master, there are many things I have never seen before. No wonder the young master wants to come to the capital. If I had known that it would be so good to follow the young master, I would never feel tired after walking no matter how far!"

Zhang Haogu shook the fan in his hand, but he was a little disdainful.

"They're all rubbish. I'd rather have an air conditioner!"

When I first traveled through time, I was thinking about how things from the Ming Dynasty would be worth a lot of money later.

However, after traveling for a long time, I discovered that these things are actually just that.

Can he still travel back in time?

No way!

The crowd gathered not far away attracted Zhang Haogu's attention.

"Why are there so many people, and what are they doing? Young master, let's go take a look too!" Zhang An was about to walk over and get closer.

Zhang Haogu nodded and walked over.

In the center of the crowd, standing behind the desk, was a young man, not very old, about the same age as himself. He was wearing a brocaded satin round-neck robe and a jasper crown on his head. He was full of energy and majestic.

On the table in front of him were wooden carvings, each of which was ingenious and exquisite. They were said to be for sale, but there were only five of them in total. They didn't look like they were doing business, but rather they were for show.

"This guy!"

Zhang Haogu was stunned for a moment, and the corner of his eye glanced at this young man. He looked a year or two younger than himself.

Look at the entourage next to him. Their skin is very white and very clean. However, why do they speak like a drake?

Could it be a eunuch?

Then, Zhang Haogu looked around from the corner of his eye, and found that there seemed to be many people holding weapons around, secretly protecting the young man.

Zhang Haogu thought of a person, Emperor Qi of the Great Tomorrow, Zhu Youxiao.

The legendary carpenter emperor.

According to the unofficial history, he often carved some small figures, toys or animals by himself, and then sold these wood carvings in the market, always selling for high prices.

Among them, a set of small lamp-protecting screens he carved called "Cold Birds Struggle for Plum Blossoms" actually sold for one hundred thousand taels, and everyone was vying to buy it.

He was accompanied by eunuchs and protected by guards.

More than 90% of this guy is Tianqi Emperor Zhu Youxiao.
