The people who participated in Chunwei this year were lucky. After the new year, the cold wind was less, and it was said that it was the least suffering since the founding of the dynasty.
Speaking of which, every year when the capital is set in the capital, Chunwei really suffers.
The Zhou Family Chunwei has a lot of experience, everything was prepared years ago, even the references for the younger generation in the clan were prepared by the Zhou Mansion.
This is the advantage of having a family. There are officials in the family, especially those in the capital. When you enter Beijing for the imperial examination, you don’t have to grab an inn to rest well, and you don’t have to worry about food, sleep well, and rest well. You can also gain experience in private. Experience, the experience of betting on questions, all of which set a distance from ordinary candidates.
For the Zhou family, the son-in-law of Tanhualang who came second in the list, and the son is a Jinshi, these are unique advantages.
Therefore, the younger generation of the Zhou family had a good mental outlook and entered the examination room with confidence, without any anxiety or anxiety at all.
Zhou Shuren didn't ask for leave to send it off. It's the beginning of the new year. People all over the country are asking for money. Everyone wants to get more money from the household department. Zhou Shuren is very busy.
Zhulan went to see her off, seeing her son and the younger generation of the clan entering the examination room, Zhulan returned home with peace of mind.
Su Xuan and her mother-in-law were riding in a carriage, and she was very worried about her husband, "Mother, it's so cold, my husband won't catch the cold, right?"
Zhulan said, "The weather is fine today. Your father suffered a lot when he was in the spring. He got sick a lot after the exam. Don't worry, Changzhi is in good health."
On the contrary, Zhulan was worried that the older juniors in the clan would have lower resistance as they got older, but at this time, it was fate.
Sometimes, luck is really hard to say.
Su Xuan felt that she would not be able to eat or sleep well, so she stirred the handkerchief, seeing the calm expression on her mother's face, she endured it and did not continue to speak.
When Zhulan returned to the mansion, she saw Yang Wen, and she was pleasantly surprised, "You know you're coming back?"
This kid hasn't come back since he went to the navy, and there are very few letters. If she didn't receive everything she sent, she would have sent someone to check it out.
Yang Wen rubbed his head, "I haven't had a vacation all this time. I just got a vacation, so I rushed back to see my aunt."
Zhulan looked at the child Yang Wen distressedly, "It's dark and thin."
This is not a lie, Yang Wen is really dark, although he feels strong, but he has lost a lot of weight, and he has suffered a lot at a glance.
Yang Wen's eyes were full of energy, "Grandmother, I got on the ship. I followed the ship around the nearby waters and encountered pirates. If they didn't run fast, I would have been sunk by artillery fire."
As soon as Zhulan heard it, there is no boy who doesn't like weapons. Seeing the excitement, she snorted, "How many days can you rest?"
Yang Wen was a little embarrassed, even though his face was dark, he could tell that his face was blushing, "There is a month's rest."
Zhulan was surprised, "So many?"
While helping his aunt and grandmother to walk, Yang Wen took out a letter from his arms, his ears turned red, "I brought you a letter from grandpa."
Zhulan was puzzled, why didn't the eldest brother write him a letter directly, took the letter back to the main courtyard, and opened it, and it was clear when she saw it, "Have you read the letter?"
Yang Wen's voice weakened a little, "Yes."
Zhulan smiled, "According to the date, your grandpa and the others should be arriving in the capital soon."
Yang Wen blushed, "Yes."
Zhulan smiled and said, "Your grandfather is also worried about you, you should definitely get married at your age."
Yang Wen's ears turned red again, Zhulan didn't say anything, this kid is thin-skinned, and he's still waiting for his elder brother to come.
Yang Wen asked, "My cousin is in the spring today. He was supposed to enter the city yesterday, but something delayed him."
Zhulan said: "Your cousin must be happy that you miss him. You have taken good care of him at home these days, and you will be able to see your cousin in a few days."
Yang Wen touched his face, it was very rough when touched by the sea breeze, "Okay."
In the examination room, Changzhi had already got the exam questions, and quickly read the exam questions, then he was not thinking about the exam questions, but thinking about the next door,
I just found out that the next door to him is the younger brother of the crown prince's side concubine Liu, so he was naturally introduced by the other party.
This arrangement is really a coincidence. Speaking of it, many people wanted to visit after the year, but they were all pushed by the family, and some people invited him to post, but they were also pushed by the father.
Changzhi pursed his lips. These people regarded him as a competitor. He was still the most popular candidate in the capital. He was second in the last exam. This time he didn't want to be surprised.
In the household department, Zhou Shuren felt a headache when he saw Master Li, and he has been stuck for several days, asking for money with the booklet, "My lord, Lord Shangshu is here."
Feel free to stop him.
Li Zhao touched the booklet, "You think I'm willing to bother you. This year's southwest border is not stable. The equipment of the Southwest garrison should be replaced, as well as food and medicine."
Zhou Shuren, "Stop, it's impossible for you to ask me to take out so much money all at once. You argue with me, and I will argue with you. Last year, the south continued to rain heavily, which washed away the dykes and roads in the countryside. All of them need money. The construction of the department also needs money, and there are many places where money is used, and it is not only the Ministry of War that needs money."
Zhou Shuren's head was buzzing as he watched the silver papers being approved.
Li Zhao felt regretful, "Then give me the silver approved by the emperor first."
Zhou Shuren rolled his eyes inwardly, this one just wanted to get some more money out, "I have this, tomorrow, tomorrow morning you send someone to pick it up."
Sometimes Li Zhao really likes Zhou Shuren, and sometimes he really hates Zhou Shuren. In the past, when Xiao Qing was in charge of the household department, he could dig out some money from time to time. Now Zhou Shuren has changed a lot of rules, and everything is done according to the rules. It took a lot of effort to get the money out of Zhou Shuren's hand.
Zhou Shuren sent Li Zhao away, took a long breath, and thought about the money calculated by the Ministry of Industry, and his brain hurt even more. Last year, he made a small fortune, which was not enough for the Ministry of Industry, but the Ministry of Industry is for the benefit of the people. , It is estimated that there will be war in the southwest of the Ministry of War, and it must be given. The navy must not be less, and there are many more, which is a headache.
Going on, Shi Qing is in the Ministry of Commerce, he is idle, and what he is currently doing is summarizing, merchants have been registered one after another, what he does is tedious and detailed work, a little bit of classification, since Shi Qing joined the Ministry of Commerce has been doing this job.
Shi Qing also worked hard, but today, Shi Qing squinted his eyes, flipped through the booklet in his hand, then stood up and found the booklet registered a few days ago, carefully looked at the two merchants, touched them, he did it for the emperor After a few years, I have seen a lot, and I am wary of everything.
Holding two brochures, I wanted to ask Mr. Zheng for leave, and then paused. It used to be the most convenient place in the Hanlin Academy. It was normal for a concubine to enter the palace. Now it is difficult for him to enter the palace at the Ministry of Households. It is too suspicious for the emperor to summon him alone .
Shi Qing grabbed the booklet and sat down again, sighed and pursed her lips. He will not be able to see the light in the future, and can only wait until night.
