Wearing a black shirt and a Confucian sash belt around his waist, Zhao Yasi walked into the second hall of the county government office.
He was slightly surprised when he saw the county magistrate who looked uncertain.
He had served the newly arrived magistrate for several months and got to know the character of the magistrate. On the outside, this man looked like a virtuous man. At first glance, he looked like a man of the Wei and Jin Dynasties. But in fact, he was mean at heart.
Most scholars are of this urinary nature.
I have always served with respect, so how did I offend this person?
Zhao Yasi immediately handed over the list and said: "This is the money that Enxiang asked me to pay for. I have already collected it here."
The county magistrate picked up the list and read it over, and said with a sinister smile: "Oshiji, you are really hardworking and have done such a difficult thing for you. I really don't know how to thank you."
Zhao Yasi still said respectfully: "Doing things for the favored prime minister is the responsibility of a villain. I dare not ask for reward."
The county magistrate said: "Asi, does the Aisi know that Lu Tiesi was slapped by me?"
Zhao Asi said with a stern expression: "Unknown, I wonder what he has committed?"
The county magistrate said: "The vision is not good."
Zhao Yasi bowed and said: "If you fight well, you should let him have a memory."
The county magistrate said: "This time, the county has admitted seven people to the county school. Six of them are county school students. Only one named Zhang Yue is not listed. He wanted to apply for the Jinke County School Entrance Examination, but he was not allowed to attend.
Lu Tiesi made excuses to obstruct him, so he blocked Baozheng and guaranteed him."
Zhao Yasi said: "Your Excellency, I have something unclear. How could Zhou Xuexuezheng know the name of Zhang Yue?"
"I am also puzzled. I would also like to ask Zhao Yasi to give me some advice."
Zhao Yasi understood that the person who wanted to be admitted to the prefecture school was actually not allowed to enter the county school, and was stuck on the recognizance. If the prefecture school hadn't told him, the county magistrate would still have been kept in the dark, and the news would have spread to the county magistrate.
Your face would be so humiliated.
What an official like a county magistrate hates the most is the isolation between superiors and subordinates.
The subordinate officials below were doing things and kept him in the dark. The subordinate officials also knew who should be punished and who they could not offend. But who knew that Zhang Yue actually had people in the state.
"It must be a mistake. I think Zhang Yue is broke now, how could the Xuezheng in the state hear his name." Zhao Yasi explained.
"That's not necessarily the case. I just received another letter, which was written by Mr. Boyi's son. The words were very polite. He said that Zhang Yue was his teacher's student. I don't know why I couldn't confirm it. Please check it out.
Know the truth.”
Zhao Yasi's face suddenly changed. Zhang Yue actually asked Zhang Youzhi for help for the sake of acknowledgment, instead of swallowing his anger. In order to obtain acknowledgment, he actually brought the matter to the county magistrate and responded to the matter in such a high-profile manner. This is undoubtedly
Challenge yourself honestly.
When word of this incident spread, his dignity in the county was no longer there.
Zhao Yasi knew who Zhang Youzhi was. He was not only a famous scholar in the county, but also a famous seal calligrapher. Many dignitaries in the capital asked him for a calligraphy calligraphy but could not get it. The county magistrate had an old relationship with him in the past and had also learned from him.
I bought a few calligraphy and paintings and made friends with officials in Beijing.
Hearing this, Zhao Asi suddenly said: "Your Majesty, Zhang Yue's second brother...he broke off the engagement of my daughter...this matter is known throughout the city, Lu Tiesi must stand up for me."
Zhao Asi cried when he asked.
The county magistrate narrowed his eyes and said, "I have also heard about this matter. Is it really all the fault of the Zhang family?"
Seeing that the trick was not working, Zhao Asi's face suddenly changed, he lowered his head and said: "Those are just random comments in the public. I have always been very strict with my daughter in my humble position, and I will never do anything that is disgraceful to the family tradition. Please be kind to me."
Mingjian!"
The county magistrate waved his hand and said: "I don't care about this. There is no need to say more. I just want to be more discerning in the future and don't be like Lu Tiesi and let me get into trouble. This guarantee letter is
If it is signed by the county himself, please ask the superintendent to come and deliver it to Zhang’s house in person!”
Zhao Yasi's face twitched when he heard this.
Zhao Yasi knew that the county magistrate's move was to explain to Zhang Youzhi, so he sacrificed his own face.
Does Shangguan have himself in his heart?
Zhao Yasi said: "I will forgive you for my kindness. I am old and can't bear the humiliation and can't obey my orders."
"If the superintendent refuses, that's all." The county magistrate said with a sinister smile.
Zhao Asi knew that he had offended the county magistrate, but he was not completely without support. He had been operating in the county for more than ten years and was deeply rooted. The county magistrate would still need him in the future.
After hearing this, Zhao Yasi withdrew. It seemed that he would have to be more careful in doing things in the future. He would be less greedy on weekdays and spared some money to run the government office. He could only wait for two or three years to wait for the county magistrate to transfer him.
Then you can breathe a sigh of relief.
All this happened because of this son of the Zhang family! Zhao Yasi secretly hated it in his heart.
At this moment, the county magistrate looked at the book on the case with his hands behind his hands and thought, First it is Zhou Xue, and then it is Mr. Boyi. You are so majestic. I want to see what kind of person you are?
The county magistrate has decided not to release the seven people they want from the school.
All the townsmen in the county were under his imprisonment, so how could he release people just because Zhou Xue said he would release them? Professor Hu wanted to see Zhou Xue's positive expression, but he didn't have to.
If you have the ability, just ask Zhizhou to come to you personally to ask for someone.
The day before the county school admission test.
Lu Tiesi and Cao Baozheng personally delivered the letter of guarantee to Zhang's family.
Zhang Yue felt relieved when he saw that the county magistrate personally confirmed the guarantee in the letter. However, he also understood that he had entrusted Zhang Youzhi's son to report the matter to the county magistrate. This would inevitably make Zhao Ya
Si is very embarrassed and may take revenge on himself in the future.
But in the face of such a provocation, any behavior that would derail one's own path to fame and fame can only be done with a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye. Otherwise, you will really be stepped on forever, and you will never be able to turn over.
After Zhang Yue got the guarantee letter, he just knew it and went upstairs to study.
In the past few days, Zhang Yue was taking exams at home, and Aunt Xu, who originally rented at Zhang's house, also temporarily stayed with someone else. His brother and sister-in-law fully supported him in preparing for the entrance exam.
Yu said to Zhang Shi: "Shilang, can you tell? My uncle seems to be less and less like he used to be these days."
"How to say?"
Yu said: "You see, from the time when the guarantee was issued by the county magistrate to the county magistrate himself, from top to bottom, from success to failure, my uncle is like a normal person. I didn't see him anxious in the past few days, but today he got the guarantee letter.
, I only glanced at him, but I didn’t see how happy he was.”
"So calm, does it feel like a different person?"
Zhang Shi said happily: "What can I say? It's the third brother who has found out what happened. It's too late for me to be happy."
Yu said: "Maybe, I always feel that it's a bit scary for Third Brother to be bored and not go out all day these days."
Zhang Yue has indeed experienced this, and only he knows the taste of it.
In his previous life, he mostly studied in school, where the relationship between classmates and teachers was quite simple. After graduation, he first entered the society for two or three years, and the most cruel thing he had ever seen was office fights.
After traveling through time, his elder brother Zhang Qiu, Guo Xue Xue, Guo Senior Brother and Professor Zhang Cai were all very kind to him, and his life became a little more miserable, but it was as if he was still living in school in his previous life.
But this time, Zhang Yue changed his mind.
When you are weak, your enemies are everywhere; when you are strong, your friends are everywhere.
Living at the bottom of society, the first thing you have to face is the cruel competition for resources, and it is difficult to be gentle, courteous, and frugal. Neither diligent study nor the feelings of scholars like Xixi are of any use.
If he had not become a disciple of Zhang Youzhi, he would have been completely suppressed this time. Obtaining fame is not only to get ahead, but more importantly, to be able to protect yourself, your family, and the people you love.
Zhang Yue calmed down and read in his room.
Zhang Shi actually came to persuade me that there was no need to read like this. At this time, everyone was about the same, and it didn't make any difference to read a few more pages. It was better to go to bed early.
Zhang Yue doesn't think so. He can read for another three hours before going to bed, and he can read for another six hours while sleeping. The total is nine hours. Why not take advantage of it?
Previously, Guo Lin said that he was not familiar with the scriptures, and this was probably where his mistakes in copying the scriptures were.
Zhang Yue often turned a deaf ear to Guo Lin's words, but looking back today, he felt that Guo Lin had been persuading him earnestly. He decided to review the book again before the exam. Nine hours was enough for him to read a lot.
Already.
At night, the neighbors on Shuinan New Street dimmed their lights.
Only the Zhang family has a bright light.
The Nanpu River outside the window still flows eastward day and night.
Listening to the sound of the stream, Zhang Yue deeply felt that he had just understood this truth: an inch of time is worth an inch of gold. But after just sighing like this, he had no time to sigh again. Zhang Yue continued to read until he got tired of reading, and then turned off the light and took a rest.
.
Just after dawn the next day, Zhang Yue woke up.
After reading it all night last night, Zhang Yue felt that the effect was very good. The principle of sharpening one's skills in battle has always remained unchanged. Zhang Yue also lamented that he did not cherish it in the past and wasted most of his time on weekdays. It is a pity to think about it now.
After getting up, Zhang Yue immediately cleared his desk and immediately heard the sound of rapid footsteps on the stairs.
"Third uncle! Are you up?"
Zhang Qiu walked in and smiled.
Zhang Yue smiled and said, "Get up."
"Today I will take you to the examination room with Daddy. Daddy hired a car for you."
"good."
After Zhang Yue went downstairs to eat, Mrs. Yu stuffed two pancakes into his hands and said, "If you get hungry when you get to the examination room, I'll buy some fish and I'll stew them for you when you get back."
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Zhang Yue was about to leave when he was stopped by Mrs. Yu.
"Yes, there are also these eggs. You can take them with you to stave off hunger."
The egg was also placed in Zhang Yue's hand.
Zhang Yue nodded, and then heard Zhang Zhen calling his name outside.
Zhang Yue picked up the book box and walked out the door, only to see Zhang Shi driving a peace cart with a healthy mule in front of it.
Zhang Shi happily got into the car, and Zhang Yue also got on and put the book box in the car.
"Sit down!" Zhang Shi whipped up his whip and rushed to the car. After a while, he asked again, "Where does your senior brother live? Let's go pick him up together."
Zhang Yue couldn't help but doubt whether this Taiping Car could accommodate so many people, but he still pointed the way to his brother.
After the morning market, the street was full of leftover vegetable leaves, dirty water, and the road was muddy and slippery.
But the healthy mule walked very steadily, and the cart was also very stable. No wonder it was called the Taiping Car. Zhang Yue sat behind the cart with his arms around Zhang Shi, and the uncle and nephew's feet were stretched out of the cart, just swinging back and forth.
Swingy.
Neighbors had known about Zhang Yue's affairs for a long time, and when they met, they either patted the shoulder or said a few auspicious words. This scene made Zhang Yue mistakenly think that everyone had arranged it long ago. Occasionally, they would say that Saburo is really promising.
The words came.
Zhang Yue smiled and returned the greetings one by one. The spring breeze in his ears was still the same as before, and so was the smile on the young man's face.
Ps: I have modified this plot to make everyone feel less sad. If you are studying Bawen, you will not have this plot, but the book will still turn to officialdom in the middle and later stages, so I arranged this section to make the tone consistent.
.
In addition, the protagonist is not a perfect person or so intelligent that he is almost a demon. Just like the sentence at the beginning, the world is all about the world and the heart of a young man. I actually just want to write about the growth process of a young man. Thank you for your understanding and support!
