Chapter 475: Holding you up high

This scholar's surname was Qiao. Kang was so generous that he sold his ancestral home and sent the former county magistrate home for burial.

Isn't it because he has chosen Shi Liancheng's true love, Qiao Danian? It's really bullshit today.

It is said that the former county magistrate offended his colleagues and was framed to death by others.

Then his wife and children didn't even have the money to return to their hometown. This Qiao Danian often recited poems and opposed the county magistrate.

No one knows whether the county magistrate recognizes him or not. Anyway, Qiao Danian regards the former county magistrate as his confidant.

For this reason, he gave up the opportunity to "examine" in the local area, sold his ancestral home, and even personally delivered the coffin back to his hometown.

Looking at it now, Qiao Danian must have just come back and opened this calligraphy and painting stall.

Note: [The imperial examination in the Song Dynasty was called the Gongju examination, and it required three examinations: the interpretation examination, the provincial examination, and the palace examination.

The Jiejie test is an exam held by local state capitals, usually held in autumn, so it is also called "Qiubin".

Candidates who pass the interpretation test are called "Juzi" or "Gongsheng", which is equivalent to the status of a scholar in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Candidates who have obtained the title must gather in the capital in the winter of that year to take the "provincial examination" in the early spring of the next year.

The provincial examination is presided over by the Ministry of Rites, and the appropriate candidates are finally selected. At this time, they have the status of Jinshi, and the first place is called provincial yuan.

Finally, there is the palace examination presided over by the emperor himself, and the first champion will be determined at this time.

There are also second and third places, which means that the second and third places are around the number one pick, just like two eyes.

It was not until the Southern Song Dynasty that the third place was officially called the third flower.]

You must know that the magistrate of Qing Dynasty paid one hundred thousand snowflakes of silver in three years. Even if a county magistrate is not greedy, he will not have no money to return to his hometown for burial.

This was clearly his opponent's deliberate use of this matter to establish his authority. Qiao Danian was a "white body" who didn't even participate in the interpretation test.

He dared to openly offend the person who could trick the former county magistrate to death, but no one exposed him.

Even the master ignored him. Do you want to wait for him to come back as the top pick in high school to take revenge?

I have to say that the treatment of this protagonist is different. If it were another person, he would have died many times.

Han Li slowly left the calligraphy and painting stall, not caring what was said inside.

Because the moment Qiao Danian meets him, the plot is bound to go astray. Let’s see if he really has the aura of the protagonist.

When Han Li came to the city gate, he saw that Xu Jiaorong had arrived and was directing his servants to work in a high-spirited manner.

If these women are busy with something, they will be more energetic than when they are at home.

Han Li called the boy who was busy at work over and cooed in his ear for a while.

After hearing this, the boy turned around and went into the city.

Xu Jiaorong: "Hanwen, what did you ask him to do? There is a shortage of manpower here."

Han Li: "He came back soon for a small matter. During this time, I personally served porridge to the victims."

"By the way, Hanwen, how was your viewing of the mountain yesterday?"

"It's almost done. Today I asked the shopkeeper of the restaurant to help me find a craftsman. The craftsman will secretly find some from the victims."

"Then you stay here and I'll go talk to Mrs. Shi."

Han Li smiled and stopped talking, but concentrated on helping to serve the porridge beside the big pot.

Just after noon that day, the story of Qiao Danian spread in Qiantang County.

Many people are telling stories about him, how he is not afraid of power, he is generous and righteous, his righteousness is as high as the sky, he is talented, he is brave and brave...

He quickly won the favor of a large group of scholars. That afternoon, many people came to contact Qiao Danian at his calligraphy and painting stall.

There were also a few well-off people who insisted on dragging him to drink, which caused his calligraphy and painting stall to be closed down early.

That day, Qiao Danian was complimented by a group of scholars and was a little confused. He was very drunk.

The next day, Qiao Danian found that more people came to his calligraphy and painting stall, and not only did many people praise his works.

There were a few young ladies peeking at him from a distance, and before noon, he was dragged to drink again.

Naturally, there was no way to go out in the afternoon, so Qiao Danian returned home drunk.

On the third day, the paintings and calligraphy at Qiao Danian's stall were sold out early.

When he took out his pen and ink and was about to replenish the supplies, he was pulled away by a group of admiring people.

Qiao Danian's reputation has completely spread in Qiantang County, and many rich young ladies want to take a secret look at him.

This hot topic naturally reached Shi Liancheng's ears. Girls' feelings are always poetry.

Shi Liancheng was no exception. She planned to ask her wet nurse to take her to the street to buy some things, mainly passing by the calligraphy and painting stall.

That night, in a large house somewhere in Qiantang County, there was the sound of a tea cup being smashed.

On the fourth day, Qiao Danian shook his head and got up from the bed. He had just scooped a bowl of water from the water tank to drink.

There was a knock on the courtyard door, and a group of people dragged him to eat and drink, many of whom he didn't recognize.

Qiao Danian originally planned to replenish supplies at home today and did not plan to go out to socialize with them.

"Brother Qiao, we came here on a special trip for no reason, you won't even show me the favor, right?"

"Brother Qiao, we were studying in the same college, so we can be considered classmates after all. You don't even want to talk about this little bit of friendship, right?"

"Everyone, please leave. Brother Qiao is now a celebrity, so it's natural for him to look down on us."

When Qiao Danian was young and vigorous, how could he accept these people repeatedly trying to bully him?

Now that everyone is talking about this, if he doesn't go, his reputation will be lost in the future.

Qiao Danian: "Everyone, please wait for me for a moment, we will go right away."

After he finished saying this, several people in the crowd had smiles on their faces that showed their success.

After Qiao Danian changed his clothes, the group of people surrounded him and went out.

On the way, everyone also praised him greatly. He has become a role model for our generation in terms of literary character.

What's even more exaggerated is that some people say that if he stays in the hospital for a period of time, he is very likely to get the emperor's special move and directly enter the center.

This sentence made Qiao Danian suddenly think about it. Isn't it about studying that one has learned literary and martial arts to be able to live in an emperor's family?

He had already imagined the scene where he was specially recruited by the emperor and then sat in the center to handle various things.

Qiao Danian originally thought he would go to an ordinary restaurant, or at most the West Lake Yaju by the lake.

Unexpectedly, this group of people talked about talented people and beautiful women, and then they took him to the most expensive gold-selling cave "Yihongyuan" in Qiantang County.

Although it is not the same Song Dynasty, the atmosphere is almost the same.

From the emperor to the officials and gentry, they all enjoyed drinking and bewitching concubines when they had nothing to do, and regarded it as an elegant thing.

So Qiao Danian couldn't say anything disappointing, but just touched his pocket quietly.

With the support of this group of people, they walked into the gate of Yihongyuan in a mighty manner.
