This time, after Yuzhu will test Yuan, even if he thinks with his feet, Longkodo cannot treat Tang Bing badly.
Because he had the greatest military and police power in the capital, Longkodo was very obedient and never had too many interactions with important officials in the DPRK.
However, given Longkodo's special status in Kangxi's mind, it was logical to promote Yuzhu's teacher. It was completely justified and the emperor would not be suspicious.
"Don't worry, if what I predict is right, even if I don't award you with the top prize in the end, there will still be great compensation. How many of our people can read? You are only sixteen years old. Jieyuan and Huiyuan
It has already been added to you, you are a great auspicious person." When Tang Bing said what he was proud of, he couldn't help but smile, "Hey, when the three feudal lords were in peace, the so-called Eight Banners, well, let's not mention it. That rebellious
After raising troops, they repeatedly defeated the green soldiers who could still fight. However, Zheng Ni actually crossed the sea and copied Geng Ni's back. Under the attack of the imperial court and Zheng Ni, how could Geng Ni be invincible? Haha, Zheng Ni
Nothing is more short-sighted than this."
Yuzhu knew that Tang Bing would never talk useless nonsense at this juncture.
Geng Ni, Geng Jingzhong, one of the three vassals. Zheng Ni, Zheng Chenggong’s son, Zheng Jingye.
Frankly speaking, Kangxi's public withdrawal of vassal vassalage was actually a stupid move made by a hot-headed man.
After the three vassals all rebelled, Wu Sangui failed to respect Zhu Ming's sons and grandsons and invaded Wuchang as soon as possible and headed north to Henan. This was actually a major strategic mistake.
After Geng Jingzhong raised his troops to rebel against the Qing Dynasty, he invaded Jiangxi and won every victory.
Who would have thought that Zheng Jing was so stupid. Instead of fighting the Qing army, he took advantage of the opportunity to cross the sea and cut off Geng Jingzhong's retreat, causing Geng Jingzhong to surrender to the Qing Dynasty again.
Kangxi, who was stunned by San Francisco, immediately gained valuable strategic breathing time.
Originally, the bannermen in Sijiu City were packing up the good things they had snatched and preparing to return to the land of Longxing outside the pass.
Unexpectedly, due to Zheng Jing's short-sighted operation, the Taqing Dynasty, which was already on the verge of collapse, turned over again.
With Tang Bing's cautiousness, he still wanted to mention such a sensitive matter, which was obviously for Yu Zhu's good.
According to Yuzhu's understanding, what Tang Bing did not say clearly was that the Eight Banners had become corrupt. Even if Kangxi wanted to boost the confidence of the banner people, he must set an example for the banner people and tell the world that we, the Eight Banners, still have talented people.
Also!
Yuzhu randomly checked the homework progress of the two emperor's grandchildren. Well, he was half satisfied.
Under Tang Bing's supervision, Hong Hao's academic progress can be described as rapid.
However, Hongshu's situation is not ideal. The reason is that Hongshu is spoiled at home and cannot sit still.
Reading is inherently boring. If you can't sit still, you will definitely suffer a big loss.
Tang Bing's educational ideas are based on the same old methods and are forced to fill in the gaps.
This led to a vicious cycle. Hongshu didn't want to study, but Tang Bing forced him to do so. Hongshu became rebellious and didn't want to study anymore.
Yuzhu thought about it carefully and changed his education method.
He divided the homework he had to memorize into five sections. After each section Hongshu memorized, he could leave the classroom and play with the haha beads for a while. As long as he didn't leave the house, he could play whatever he wanted.
After playing for a quarter of an hour, come back and endorse.
Not to mention, this method is really suitable for Hongshu. When school was over, under Tang Bing's nose, Hongshu successfully completed his homework like never before.
"Oh, you are such a fool. It's a pity not to go to the Imperial College to teach and educate people." Tang Bing didn't have anything to say. The facts are all there and you will know once you try.
The time of the imperial examination in the Kangxi Dynasty was not fixed. It might be mid-March or early April.
Yuzhu, who had already obtained the title of Jinshi, was extremely relaxed and still stayed at home every day, reading only for half a day.
After five years of hard work, and having gone through many hardships in taking exams, Yuzhu’s basic skills in Confucian classics have become extremely solid.
What's more, the imperial examination only covers one policy-making test, which lasts one day.
The main reason why Yuzhu did not throw away the scriptures in Nanshan was because Kangxi had a bad habit.
According to Longkodo, Kangxi especially liked to come up with extremely uncommon allusions, deliberately knocking down the scholars in the south study or the masters in the study, watching them make fools of themselves, and he never tired of it.
Yuzhu's half-day reading was devoted to finding out-of-the-way allusions. Not to mention, reading these out-of-the-way allusions was more fun than reading the Bible every day.
It is cruel to say that in the same year as Yuzhu, only Zhou Quan passed the Gongshi examination.
Zhou Quan's father, Zhou Kuang, was a doctor in the Selected Works Department of the Ministry of Official Affairs.
Yuzhu's eighth uncle, Qingtai, has returned to Beijing and taken up the post of Zuo Shilang, a full member of the staff, who happens to be Zhou Kuang's immediate boss.
It is precisely because of this that Zhou Quan and Yuzhu got closer. As for those who failed the provincial examination in the same year, few people came to Yuzhu.
With more free days, Yuzhu naturally wanted to return the favor to Si Age.
Before the provincial examination, the fourth elder brother sent Dai Duo to the gate of Gongyuan to deliver the exam. Before the general examination, the fourth elder brother even came to deliver the exam in person.
No matter what kind of relationship you will have with Si Age in the future, you will always have to talk about worldliness.
Yuzhu never likes to owe favors. What's more, Si Age is a master who likes to hold a small black book and keep a small black account.
Therefore, Yuzhu ordered Hu Biao to take his name card to Sibeile's house and deliver a message. He asked Si elder brother to make an appointment at a suitable time in advance. He wanted to go and visit his cousin.
After Hu Biao came back, he reported: "Back to the second master, I went to Sibeile's house. Not long after I handed over my name card, Sifujin met me. Sifujin told me, and Sibeile left a message in advance.
You are his cousin, there is no need to submit a name card in advance, just go directly to the door at any time."
If Yuzhu takes such kind words seriously, then he is really stupid.
However, Si Fujin made it clear that he is welcome to visit at any time.
Si Fujin deliberately did not make a date because he wanted to see if Yuzhu was truly a caring person.
Yuzhu thought for a while and then ordered Hu Biao to take his name card and go to the Ministry of Industry to find the fourth elder brother and ask the fourth elder brother to make an appointment to meet him.
If others don't know, how can Yuzhu not know? Lao Si is a typical workaholic. He has twelve hours a day, and he can't wait to work for fourteen hours.
Today's fourth child is the elder brother of the Ministry of Industry, who is also the Supreme Emperor of the Ministry of Industry.
The Ministry of Works is in charge of various projects, and the fourth child is an extremely serious person. Good guy, the fourth child made those corrupt officials in the Ministry of Works who wanted to make money cry and scream, calling them father and mother.
Unexpectedly, the fourth child actually said that he had no time to entertain Yuzhu in the house and asked him to go to the official hall of the Ministry of Industry for tea tomorrow.
Hey, this kind of thing will never happen to Lao Ba, that is, Lao Si can do it.
Come on, now that the fourth child has given out the prescription, Yuzhu can only follow his wishes and admit it while holding his nose.
On the second day, Yuzhu took a bus to the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry.
The first yamen south of Beiyuhe Bridge is the Ministry of War, followed by the Ministry of Industry.
When Yuzhu was approaching the Ministry of Industry, he was catching up with the Minister of the Ministry of War when he was going out, and his carriage had to avoid the roadside.
After the Minister of War's car drove away, Yuzhu got back on the road.
According to the rules, private carriages are prohibited from stopping in front of the Liubu Yamen.
Yuzhu got out of the car early and led Wu Jiang and Hu Biao over.
When he arrived at the industrial department, Hu Biao took the lead and handed over his name card.
A guard guarding the door took a look at Yuzhu's name card, then gave it back to Hu Biao, and said coldly: "Brother, the majestic prince, who can see me if he wants to?"
Hu Biao was a monkey spirit who followed Long Keduo on many errands. As soon as he heard that the errands were deliberately making things difficult, he knew that only money can make things difficult.
Yuzhu had given instructions in advance. Anyone who dared to act in a flamboyant manner on Brother Si's territory would not be bothered to reward him, and would be kicked out of the house by the whole family.
Hu Biao took out a small ingot of silver from his arms and quietly stuffed it into the guard's cuff. He was so skilled that he could hardly notice it.
The officer only felt his sleeves sinking suddenly, and immediately he knew what he was doing, and he dropped two taels into his bag.
"Hey, how can I keep Mr. Gongshi waiting for so long? I will go in and report right away. However, whether I see you or not, it all depends on the mood of the superior."
As soon as Hu Biao heard this, he knew that the money had played a big role, and that the guard was speaking the truth, so he handed over his hand and said, "Thank you for your service."
The officer turned around and entered the Ministry of Works, where Hu Biao was waiting for him.
What the servants of the Tong family fear most is not that they will be cheated, but that the whole family will be kicked out of the house.
Who is stupider than whom these days?
The common people outside the Long Mansion all had plenty of food to eat, and they ate in a hurry. When my grandpa’s pants arrived at his great-grandson’s place, he couldn’t bear to throw them away, so he had to wear them again.
Is that how people live?
Not to mention anything else, Hu Biao, the big steward around Yuzhu, earns as much as five taels of silver every month, which is sixty taels a year.
Moreover, there are at least sixty taels of various rewards received every year.
This is one hundred and twenty taels!
There are also some shady foreign waters, which are at least two hundred taels every year. How much money is this in total?
What's going on outside?
The monthly expenses of an ordinary family of five are equivalent to one tael of silver.
The food of the grassroots people is also very simple. In their spare time, they eat wild vegetables and sweet potatoes. The accompanying dishes have always been pickled radish strips.
When you are really poor, you may even eat porridge without vegetables.
In Mr. Long’s house, every meal is served with white rice, pastry and other pasta, which are open to eat. Moreover, there are big pot dishes with pork every day, and mutton can be eaten three times a month.
In the alley behind Long Mansion, the servants' houses are next to each other. A decent steward like Hu Biao lives in a private courtyard with his master, and there are even little girls waiting in the courtyard. The gap is really too big and unbearable!
All the servants who were kicked out of Long Mansion, without exception, went out crying.
"Where is the jade pillar?"
When Hu Biao was distracted, he suddenly heard someone calling Yuzhu's name. He looked up and saw, good guy, Lao Shisan walked out quickly.
"Little Hu Biao, let's meet the Thirteenth Master." Hu Biao was so frightened that he knelt down without giving up.
"Are you serving Yuzhu? Go and tell Yuzhu that I have wanted to have a drink with him for a long time." When Old Thirteen said this, Hu Biao felt at ease and quickly got up and ran back to find Yuzhu.
