August of the twenty-fourth year of Guangxu is coming soon.
The college examination passed by in a hurry.
Thanks to his status as the head of the Xu Xing Mansion, he did not fail in the college examination. However, he did not continue to work hard and pass the college examination as before, but only passed the third place.
I barely got a "Third Flower" ranking.
"It's good to be a flower girl, Brother Xu, there's no need to feel sad."
After the results were announced, he returned to Wei Jing Academy and hosted a banquet for Qin Xiucai, a local student who had vouched for Xu Xing.
"How can everything in this world go as planned?"
"It is my great fortune to be a junior high school student..."
Xu Xing was sitting in the main seat facing north and south, and he seemed to be the backbone of the small group. He was very different from the little guy who accompanied him in the last seat last year. He raised his glass and touched Qin Xiucai and others one by one. After drinking, he smiled
He said: "If I were a county chief and lost my chancellorship in the college examination, I would still feel disappointed. After all, Xiao Sanyuan's reputation is there, but I am not a county chief... I am lucky to have gained it, but I have lost my life."
"
Xiao Sanyuan, obtaining this achievement may have a certain bonus to his destiny.
In the dungeon world, you can also become famous far and wide.
If there is no hope for Xiao Sanyuan..., obtaining the status of the chief executive in the college examination, or obtaining other rankings, will not have much impact on Xu Xing.
Just make sure you get into the top ten.
This is because the number of first-class junior students selected in one college examination is usually only about ten. As for the state and county official schools, it seems that there are many junior students, but in fact this has been accumulated over decades.
Scholars are also divided into grades. The first grade is Linsheng, which is equivalent to the official establishment and is paid monthly. The second grade is Zengzheng, which is supernumerary. Although there are some benefits, it is not as good as Linsheng. The full name is "Zengguang"
"Sheng Yuan" means that the imperial court was kind and admitted these unqualified scholars as scholars.
The third class is at the end of all lives, as "affiliated students", with pitifully low benefits...
What poor scholars talk about is epiphysis.
If you just barely have the reputation of being a scholar, if you do not rank well in the annual examination, you will most likely be revoked by the government according to the Sixth Class Deposition Law.
We can only barely make ends meet in Hukou.
The other second-class scholars could never be called "poor".
The third place in the college examination sounds less prestigious, but in fact the benefits are the same. As for the future rural examination... Xu Xing does not think that the next rural examination will test the eight-legged essay. According to the ideas of the reformers, the future rural examination will
The examination is all about current policy and practical learning, and the benefits of the provincial examination will disappear after the reform of the imperial examination.
Of course, the reason why he took the imperial examination was initially to change his fate and obtain a certain status.
Later..., it was because of the opportunity mentioned by Master Ma.
Now that he has become a scholar, he has no great desire to compete for the higher-level titles of Juren and Jinshi. These titles are useless, after all... he is a rebel.
It is destined not to enter the court, but to be a bureaucrat.
Say it.
Xu Xing stared at the mirror.
[Preserved Official (Red): Talents selected by the court, favored by the court's luck, retaining official aura and gaining official prestige, people dare not look up to them. After entering the official career, official luck will be prosperous.]
"Your red destiny [President] and your red destiny [Righteous Thief] conflict. Should you choose to dissolve the red destiny [Preserver], or replace the red destiny [Righteous Thief]?"
Lines of writing appeared on the golden mirror.
After gaining the title of first-class junior high school student, Xu Xing was born with a red destiny [Preservation Officer].
Although according to common sense, candidates are qualified to fill vacancies in the Ministry of Civil Affairs and appoint and remove officials.
But it was different in the late Qing Dynasty...
After he became a first-class junior student, he also studied practical studies at Wei Jing Academy, and was already a favorite in the eyes of many officials in Qin Province. Many officials extended an olive branch to him and asked him to serve under their command.
Among them was Fang Yun, the governor of Qin Province.
Serving under these ministers, what you get is not an official position, but a serious official status.
…
"Slow down first..."
"We will decide whether to dissolve the [Presidential Officer] fate after a while."
Xu Xing calmed down his mind.
He was afraid that if he ruined the fate of this [prefecture official], a series of negative consequences would occur.
You should also act with caution first.
At least he would not make a decision until he had the opportunity, and he would never dare to be rash.
"Brother Xu is right..."
"This eight-part essay... is called eight-part essay because it involves guessing the intentions of the officials. If you guess correctly, your ranking will be good. If you fail to guess, your ranking will be low. It is not determined by talent.
of……"
Qin Xiucai laughed loudly and told his juniors about his experience in the examination room.
The student’s experience in the examination room was nothing short of trivial. Everyone here shook their heads and recited it silently, obviously remembering it deep in their hearts. Some people with poor memories immediately called the store owner in An Ranju and asked for pens, ink, paper and inkstones, and wrote on plain paper.
After talking for a while, I hid it in my arms as if it were a treasure.
This little inside story is not going to end up in a literary hell.
Xu Xing is not a self-conscious person, so he also shared some of his experiences.
By the end of the day, it was already late at night.
They all brought wine to their favorite prostitute's house and went to the bliss.
"Brother Xu, this girl Ying'er is from Datong's aunt..."
"The most plump..."
"Don't feel bad."
Qin Xiucai pushed the woman in his arms to Xu Xing and smiled happily.
The four irons of life.
We've walked out of windows together, carried guns together, been dirty together, been in prostitution together.
No matter how much he loves Miss Ying'er, she is just a plaything.
There was nothing he couldn't bear to part with.
A gust of fragrant wind came.
Xu Xing couldn't retreat here, so he hugged Miss Ying'er from the waist, feeling soft jade in his arms. He shook his head and said: "Brother Qin, I've been feeling a little unwell recently, so let's forget it."
To practice Quanzhen Neigong requires abstinence.
Before the opportunity came to him, he didn't want to think that his duck's mouth would suddenly fly away because of a trivial matter.
"Brother Xu, why do you need to see others?"
Qin Xiucai shook his head, poured a glass of wine, and looked at Miss Ying'er.
He estimated that Xu Xing had never eaten meat before, so he acted with some scruples.
"This master?"
"You are..."
Miss Ying'er smiled sweetly and wanted to flirt with Xu Xing.
But the next moment.
She was dumbfounded and looked frightened.
Although she was lying in Xu Xing's arms, Xu Xing's arms suddenly turned into invisible needle felt, and every place was prickly and tight.
"Hey young..."
Miss Ying'er rolled back into Qin Xiucai's arms.
"Brother Qin, look, Miss Ying'er still misses you."
"I'd better go back to the academy to study first."
Xu Xing glanced around the box and resigned.
It's not that he doesn't understand the principles of being gregarious, but that once he reaches his status, he doesn't have to be patient everywhere.
Being forbearing at all times makes him appear to have no temper.
Of course, Qin Xiucai's move was a "good intention", and given the current circumstances, Xu Xing had no intention of criticizing him.
