People in the Yu Mansion naturally like to hear such nice words and such auspicious prophecies. Not that someone outside has heard this and reported it, but he also wants to report the good news to the master and his wife, and there will definitely be a reward.
Master Huidao didn't stop. After finishing Yu Lu, he looked at Zhang Sheng again.
"Mr. Zhang, if you can win the exam, you will definitely win the exam when you go to Beijing. If you don't win the exam this time, you will lose half of your luck. You will have to take one or two subjects late. It is not certain what will happen then."
This is a reminder. Hurry up and take the time to study, and try to win the exam this time.
Zhang Sheng was overjoyed after hearing this, but also a little stressed. At the same time, he also didn't understand why he won the imperial examination this time and was able to become a Jinshi when he entered Beijing?
What is the connection between the two?
Or is his luck related to Yu Lu? Or... Zhang Sheng thought of something, and the expression on his face changed.
After Master Huidao finished speaking about Zhang Sheng, he looked at Fang Xi again.
"Fang Xi, Mr. Fang, although you have just made great progress in your studies, you may not have passed this subject originally, but it is different now. If you go to Beijing next year, you will definitely pass."
"This... real person, can I ask why this is happening?" Fang Xi asked.
Master Huidao shook his head: "Old Taoist, I can only say this."
I understand, the secret must not be revealed, right?
Fang Xi didn't seem to understand, but she also knew that asking her would be in vain, so she simply stopped asking.
After all, Master Hui Dao said that the three of them were all talking about good things. Even if you don’t know why this good thing appears, it will not make people anxious. There is no need to know in advance to avoid it. If the good thing really comes, or where will it end?
When you do this, you will naturally understand why there is luck.
Master Huidao said again: "Your father Fang Wenshao, I heard that he doesn't want to take the exam?"
Master Huidao knew about this, and Fang Xi was not surprised.
His father, Fang Wenshao, was also well-known in the county. He had been a civil servant for many years. If he failed the exam this time, there would definitely be some discussion. Fang Xi replied, "Yes. Last time I returned to Beijing, my father said he would not take the exam."
Huidao Zhenren said: "You go back and tell your father that if you go again this time, you will definitely win. Although it is a low win, you can still fulfill his life wish, and your official career will be bright in the future... If you miss this time
The opportunity is to cut off the official career, and there will never be another chance."
"Is it true?" When Fang Xi heard this, she was even more surprised than when she heard that she had won the meeting. She stood up and asked: "Master, is this serious?"
"Seriously." Master Huidao said.
Yu Lu listened on the sidelines, feeling more and more that Huidao Zhenren came here in the middle of the night and said these words specifically, which had a profound meaning.
He glanced to the side and found that the boy serving tea just now was still standing, but there was someone missing at the door.
If you think about it carefully, you will know that the man must have heard the good news and ran to report it to his parents.
Sure enough, after a while, I heard the sound of footsteps coming from far away. Mr. Yu and his wife walked in from the outside, saluted Master Huidao, and said enthusiastically: "Master, come here, today is really a prosperous family."
.”
When the guests and hosts were seated again and the snacks were placed in person, Mr. Yu suppressed his mood and asked: "I have heard what you and Quanzi just said, but are you serious? Is it true that you will win the first prize when you enter the capital, and it may be the first grade?"
Huidao Zhenren smiled and said, "Although Pindao is a man from the mountains and has a bad reputation, he dare not talk nonsense in the countryside. This is true."
Oh, this is really a happy event. The couple looked at each other and saw the joy on each other's faces.
"It's not that I doubt the real person, I don't doubt the real person's words." Mr. Yu felt happy and stood up and apologized repeatedly. Unlike young people who only generally believed in the real person Huidao, the nearby prefectures and counties became more and more awe of Tongshan Temple as they got older.
Because I know more things, I know that in the previous dynasty, Tongshan Temple even monopolized the position of the Taoist Discipline Department of the house, which was a ninth-grade official status.
It is said that the previous generation of Zhangguan Zhenren also made great achievements in the founding of this dynasty, but unfortunately he died of illness later.
Therefore, I am even more in awe of a real person like Hui Dao Zhenren. How can I not be happy to hear such words from Hui Dao Zhenren who are willing to listen?
But they were happy. Master Hui Dao came over in the middle of the night to tell them the news, which also made the couple feel that they might have other requests.
Mr. Yu said: "I would like to express my gratitude to the real person for coming to tell him. I wonder if there is any place where I can help the real person?"
This is a tactful way of asking Master Hui Dao what he wants.
Huidao Zhenren stood up with a smile, looked at the sky, and said: "I just had a sudden whim, so I took the liberty to visit. I don't have any requirements. It's getting late, and there is nothing to finish. Let's leave it to the future!"
Master Huidao has a gentle attitude, which is strange, but also has something that makes people have to respect him. Mr. Yu did not dare to persuade him to stay, so he leaned slightly and said: "Master Huidao has many things to do, so I don't dare to stay any longer. This is a little filial piety from my family."
With that said, a banknote was handed to Master Hui Dao. Master Huidao saw that it was a fifty-tael banknote and just smiled, accepted it, and left.
Master Yu felt a little reassured, but then he had an idea and said: "Lü'er, please give me a gift."
It was night now, the rain had long since disappeared, and the wind was still slightly warm. Yu Lu saw the two of them out without saying anything for a while.
"Zhenren." Yu Lu looked at Zhenren Hui Dao secretly and said, "Others don't know, but I am a Juren, and I have learned etiquette at the provincial level."
"The imperial examination is a grand ceremony for the imperial court to recruit talents. Even the Duke, the prince, and the prince cannot interfere, right?"
Huidao's expression could not be seen at night, but his voice sounded like he was walking with a smile: "That's right. You understand it right. The imperial examination is a ceremony for the court to recruit talents. Even the Duke, the prince, and the prince cannot interfere."
"Last time, a prince wanted to say hello to one of his disciples, but the emperor found out and was deprived of his salary for a year. The disciple was deprived of his honors and was not allowed to take the exam again for the rest of his life. This was still a gentle treatment."
"Then why?"
"How can one know everything about the changes in the weather? Sometimes misfortunes and blessings come without warning." Master Huidao smiled vaguely, paused, and then said: "Of course, the so-called no warning is just that you can't see clearly."
"If you look at it afterwards, you will definitely be able to find out the reason. This is just a little bit of early knowledge of what will happen in three days, and you will be rich and prosperous for a hundred years."
"It's a pity that we are all mortals. Not only do we not know, but we can't say anything if we know..."
Yu Lu lowered his head and thought about these tasks, and breathed out for a long time: "If you say this, the students can't ask. It's just the real person who came to inform you. It's a great kindness. How can I repay you?"
If what he said was true, he would just give it up. He originally wanted to go to Beijing to take the exam, but Zhang Sheng, Fang Xi, and even Fang Wenshao were different.
If you miss it, there may be many variables.
The three were classmates in their second year, and their friendship gradually deepened, but they had to ask questions.
At this time, they had already arrived at the door. Master Hui Dao was not pretentious and said directly: "I don't ask for anything else. I just hope that if what I said comes true by then, I just want to be introduced to you."
"Is it enough to give you a brief introduction?" After hearing this, Yu Lu only pondered for a moment and then smiled: "Of course it is."
A gust of wind passed by. After hearing this, Master Huidao bowed his head and said goodbye. He couldn't help but think silently in his heart.
Master, do you hear your spirit in heaven? I followed your instructions to bury the secret technique, but now that the secret technique has been changed, your revenge can finally be avenged.
