Chapter 793
Mo Heng told Chang Yonglin about Jiang Benxin's preference last year, and Chang Yonglin knew about it, but Mo Heng didn't suggest that he follow his preference to write a policy theory, he must have his own uniqueness, and he should do whatever he wants. Well, Jiang Benxin dare not seek death in front of him now.

Chang Yonglin didn't ask any questions, and just followed his habitual way of thinking.

Li Baoxiang was afraid that he would fail the exam this year, so he inquired about Jiang Benxin's preferences, and Mo Heng told him to just write truthfully.Although Jiang Benxin is now following Xiao Guangpi, he is also from a poor family, and he was also from a Jinshi family. The flowers are beautiful, but the factual writing is even more impressive for his current performance and thoughts.

Chang Yonglin's articles are a bit fancy, he is more tactful than Pei Wendong and Xiao Yong, and his articles are full of beautiful words and flowers.

Li Baoxiang read Pei Wendong's and then Xiao Yong's, and felt that their articles were not as good as his. Although they had their own characteristics, it was not an article for them to pass the examination for fame and fame.Master Xuezheng also knew Pei Wendong and the others, but Mo Heng didn't even recommend him to the magistrate.

So he also inquired about it himself, and wrote the article full of flowers, but he couldn't imitate Chang Yonglin's magnificence, let alone Xiao Yong's style of everyone. After writing the article, he himself felt that it seemed a bit too much.When he came out of the Gongyuan, he heard two students eagerly discussing in whispers before leaving the door. The situation was the same as him, shouting that it was miserable.

Li Baoxiang was worried that he would miss this year's opportunity again, so he hurried to find Mo Heng and asked him to follow the path of the county magistrate, because in the last pass, whoever passed or failed would have to go through Jiang Benxin, as long as he recommended him to Xuezheng lord, Then he is [-]% sure.

"Tell me about your answers." Mo Heng asked Zhang Gengshan to bring a pen and paper.

Li Baoxiang's face froze slightly, thinking of fooling him, so as not to let him know that he didn't listen to him.He also saw that he was wearing a black robe with dark patterns, with a cold expression, as if he was surrounded by cold air, after all, he didn't hide it, and silently gave him his answer.However, he changed the article a little, fearing that he would copy out the strategy and theory of answering the question. After reading it, Mo Heng felt that it was not good enough, so he stopped speaking for him at all.

After seeing it, Mo Heng threw it aside, "There is no one around, you can just wait for the news."

Li Baoxiang was overjoyed, "Then... what if someone takes over?" Chang Yonglin followed Pei Qin since he was a child, and they must be biased towards Chang Yonglin.Forget about Pei Wendong, Zhao Yong's article is barely decent.Chang Yonglin is a half-grown boy, if they have this opportunity, they will definitely let him stand on top.

Mo Heng looked up at him.

Li Baoxiang was suffocated, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, "I see, many of the students who will end this year are from aristocratic families."

Chang Yonglin will definitely win the exam for him this year, and Wang Nuo, the young master of the Wang family, often comes to ask Mo Heng about his knowledge, and the Wang family is very powerful in Yuanyang County, so he will definitely pass the exam.Then his chance will be squeezed away.

"In the selection of scientific examinations, talents are selected, not family background." Mo Heng said coldly.

"Yes, yes." Li Baoxiang responded with a smile.There is always a feeling in my heart that Chang Yonglin and the others are their own, even Wang Nuo is their own, and he is picked up.

Chang Yonglin washed up. Thinking about that crooked scene, he couldn't eat any more. He drank two bowls of white porridge, served with side dishes served cold with sesame oil, no matter whether it was iced or not, he fell asleep after eating.

It took several days to barely rest.

Li Baoxiang came to him and asked him how he answered. If Chang Yonglin's answer won Jiang Benxin and Master Xuezheng's heart better than him, then his chances would be a little less.

Although Chang Yonglin felt uncomfortable in his stomach, his mind was not dizzy. He knew that he was running around, looking for Mo Heng to walk him, and even looking for Wang Nuo, but he didn't want to talk to him, "How about the result of the exam, just wait for it! Anyway, it will be out in two days.”

Li Baoxiang didn't ask, so he had to give up.

After waiting for two days, the results of the spring test came out.Chang Yonglin failed the ranking, and Wang Nuo also failed the ranking.

Li Baoxiang is on the list.

At the same time, Pei Wenchen also failed the ranking.

Li Baoxiang smiled happily, and his heart was always happy.In particular, the failure of Chang Yonglin and Wang Nuo made me even more secretly happy.The children of the two aristocratic families failed the exams, but he passed the exam, which proves that his knowledge is better than them!
Mrs. Li was also very happy, she wanted to set up a banquet to celebrate, and called people from her natal family, Fang's family, and Yu's family, together with Pei Qin and Mo Heng.I feel elated, and I want to do a big one.

Li Baoxiang also changed into a newly made silk straight gown in a refreshed manner, invited Fang's family, Yu's family, Mo Heng and Pei Qin.

These days are the time for spring planting. Because Fangjia Village opened a sweet potato flour workshop, more sweet potatoes are planted. They all want to grow more sweet potatoes. The demand will increase, and the price will also rise.

In addition to the 160 mu of spring soybeans in the [-] mu of sweet potato base, the rest must be planted with spring sweet potatoes.There are also sunflowers on the Taiping Mountain.

Pei Qin was still watching from the field with her big belly.

When Fang Fang got married last year, all the relatives said that this year they would buy sunflowers in the mountains.They produced sunflower seeds and taught them how to plant them.Pei Qin had a big belly, so Pei Qian and Pei Wendong took care of it.

Several earth hills in Taiping Town have been organized. Some families bought a hill, divided it into several pieces, and planted sunflowers on all of them.

Row spacing and row width, how many sunflowers to control per acre of land, and how to take care of them after planting, people who have never planted sunflowers do not know much about it.

Pei Wendong has been driven off the field by Pei Qin every year during the busy farming season, and he knows how to grow it.A few people went to other villages, and the villagers saw that they all looked like sons of rich and noble families, and they were even better at growing crops than them. After teaching in one family, they would go to that family.

He failed the ranking, and Chang Yonglin was not affected at all.Xiao Yong was taught by a famous teacher since he was a child, and Pei Wendong was with him, and he watched them all, and worked harder than him, and his experience in childhood made him feel differently, he was not as good as him in business, but his understanding in knowledge was very high.So Chang Yonglin, who failed the ranking, only scolded the grandson next door who knocked over the toilet, and happily ran to teach people how to grow sunflowers.

When Li Baoxiang came over, he didn't even see anyone, he only found Pei Qin and Jiu'er in the field.

Pei Qin asked Li Baoxiang to go back with Huang Qiu, and gave him a pair of lake pens, "It's busy during spring farming, so we won't go, you just need to be lively."

Li Baoxiang looked at the people who were busy planting sweet potatoes in the field, and asked Mo Heng that Mo Heng had been called to the Yamen of Runing Mansion, and he did not give up and let Pei Wendong and the others spare a day to celebrate after they came back.

"Let them go when you have time." Pei Qin responded.

These words sounded a bit perfunctory, Li Baoxiang felt a little displeased, he is now a scholar and a man of merit, and they still look down on him if he doesn't kneel when he goes to court to see officials! ?
When Mrs. Li heard that neither Mo Heng nor Pei Qin came, nor even Pei Wendong, her complexion dropped, "They are clearly looking down on people! They don't miss out on gifts, and spend a lot of time on them. How much do you have on your body. They are just those who are scolded as wild eggs, we respect them, but they dare to look down on us!"

Yu Qingxiu couldn't be happier at first, she was married as a stepmother, and just after she got married, Li Baoxiang passed the exam in the first year. Such a good thing, she is also blessed with a good reputation in Wangfu.Hearing Mrs. Li scolding the wild egg and the young man in the room, she was scolding Pei Qin and the others, and the smile was immediately suppressed.

Thinking that Li Baoxiang was able to go to high school because of Mo Heng and Pei Qin's contribution, he came over and said, "Mother-in-law! Cousin of the Pei family, she is ordered by the third grade, and now she is pregnant again, and when all relatives are gone, only the godmother and the others are gone. That family. Xianggong High School, they also helped and gave gifts, maybe they were really busy, so they didn't come over."

She thought about how many times they passed the exams of Mo Heng and Pei Qin, and Li Baoxiang would definitely ask them for help in the future scientific exams, it would be bad to hear people complaining now.I will move around in the future.

But these words offended Mrs. Li all of a sudden, looking at her critical and angry eyes, "You know what you want to speak for them! What's wrong with the third-rank imperial order? It's not from the official family. It's not for others, but for us. It's a good show! The third-rank imperial order will be proud, and you will be able to look down on people!? We don't respect them enough!?"

Yu Qingxiu's face turned red from being choked by her, and she whispered, "In the future, I will always have to move around, and I will always rely on them."

"Hmph! I've been begging for several years, and I've only been teaching for two days. I count on them? That's what you think! Baoxiang passed the exam because of his own ability. If his arm hadn't been broken, he would have already passed high school. Maybe, now the lowest is a master!" Li Pozi snorted angrily.

Yu Qingxiu has never been educated, and she only knows a few simple words, so she doesn't know much about learning. When Mrs. Li married her back and asked her about the situation, she felt a little disgusted and looked down on her.If I had known it earlier, I would have waited a few more months, and after my son was in high school, he could marry any lady.

Seeing the disgust and dissatisfaction in her eyes, Yu Qingxiu couldn't help but feel chilled, and didn't dare to say more.Pei Qin is a third-rank imperial order, several ranks higher than the county magistrate, and the Li family is not a serious relative of their family, it is the Li family who climbed up, there is nothing wrong with her own identity.If the mother-in-law really blames her for this, she will offend them, and if she wants to find them in the future, how can she find them! ?
Although Mrs. Li thought so in her heart, she would still look for her in the future, but she was very resentful after looking for so many times before helping her.Respectfully begging them not to come, looking down on them so much, it's like how much effort they put in and how much credit they have made in her son's high school.

Old man Li saw that Yu Qingxiu was thin-skinned and didn't dare to say more, so he persuaded Mrs. Li, "Don't talk too much! You can't blame me when you are busy during the spring farming. If someone tells it, you may hate us in your heart. Let Baoxiang trip up!"

"Didn't I just say a few words, what is there to say!? Who dares to speak nonsense!?" Mrs. Li said, glaring at Yu Qingxiu fiercely, warning her not to speak nonsense.

Since Yu Qingxiu is married, she is of course a member of the Li family. If her mother-in-law's words are spread, she will definitely offend Pei Qin and the others.

Mrs. Li muttered and cursed a few words, after all, thinking about the rural examination in the next year, she didn't know the situation yet, so she didn't say anything else.After all the things for the banquet were arranged, I cut another share and asked Li Baoxiang and Yu Qingxiu to take it to Pei Qin, "Tell them, let Baoxiang also go to the Imperial College in the capital to study. Fang Liuming Didn’t he go to the Imperial College to study, and the Jinshi who passed the exam became an official? Let Baoxiang go too, and when he goes to high school next year, he can stay in the capital and become an official!”

Seeing her looking at her, Yu Qingxiu was a little embarrassed when she saw that she was clearly speaking for herself, "Cousin Liuming... He only went to the capital after he passed the exam to be a master of Juren."

"He passed the exam to recruit people, so there is no Fang Fu!? He is still a scholar! He just went! Why can't Baoxiang go if he can go!? Now you are married to the Li family, You should think about your husband, don't turn your elbows out!" Mrs. Li looked at him with a straight face.

Yu Qingxiu didn't dare to say again, "I'll try."

"You have to talk about it when you arrive! Instead of calling my cousin, I beg them to send Baoxiang to the Imperial College in the capital too!" Granny Li arranged for her.

Yu Qingxiu could only respond.

The two of them came to Liu'er Lane again with their things in their hands, "I was thinking of waiting for Wen Dong to pass by, and you are all busy, so we will deliver the things first!"

Pei Qian glanced at the things the two of them were holding, and saw that the meat weighed five or six catties, she curled her lips secretly.The food in their house is not so delicious, what are they doing here?
Thinking of what Granny Li said, Yu Qingxiu took a deep breath, greeted Pei Qin first, and tentatively said to Pei Qin, "Cousin! My husband-in-law has already passed the examination for a scholar, can you also go to the Imperial College in Beijing?"

Pei Qin's eyes turned slightly, "You can go to the capital as long as you want, and the Imperial College has to enter and be assessed. If you want to go, you can also try."

Yu Qingxiu looked at Li Baoxiang and asked what he meant.It's okay to go, but if you fail the exam, it won't look good to come back.Seeing Li Baoxiang asking her to speak, she said shyly, "Cousin... can you... tell the Imperial College that Mr. Xianggong is also very knowledgeable, but he is just unlucky."

"No." Pei Qin said directly.

Yu Qingxiu's face flushed instantly, she was extremely ashamed.

Li Baoxiang's expression was also ugly.

"I don't know anyone from the Imperial Academy. Fang Liuming went there because he was recommended by Wu Dongsi. He was admitted there. There are many elites in the Imperial Academy, and there are many children from aristocratic families. If he fails the exam, no one can do anything." Pei Qin frowned.

Wu Dongsi, that was the former county magistrate.

Fang Fu's knowledge is not good either. When he passed the examination for scholarly status, his ranking was very low. His ranking was in the upper middle, so Fang Fu could get in. Li Baoxiang felt that as long as Pei Qin wanted to help, he would definitely be able to get in. His eyes widened. With a flash of light, he asked Pei Wendong, "...Are the three of them going to the Imperial College? We happened to go there together, and there are many who can take care of them."

"None of them are willing to go." Pei Qin said aloud.

"You don't want to go!?" Yu Qingxiu was surprised.Guozijian is a place in the capital, would they not want to go?

Li Baoxiang believed this, Shen Songming, Pei Wendong wanted to talk, and Fang Liuming was an official in the capital, so he could easily let them in. "Is it because Yonglin has no fame and can't get in? Wendong and Zhao Yong are not willing to leave Get him down?"

"It's too far from home." Pei Qin laughed.Those three little brats!

People squeezed their heads to go, but they didn't want to go.With Shen Songming here, how powerful is the Shen family!Fang Liuming is also an official in the capital, so he can take care of them.

Li Baoxiang originally thought that as long as one of the three of Pei Wendong went, Pei Qinmoheng would definitely find ways to send him to the Imperial College, and he would naturally follow in.Now that the three of them are not going, it's not easy to talk about it, "...I will ask Liu Ming to recommend it for me again. Even if there is an assessment, it will not be difficult to get in!?"

Pei Qin nodded, "Then go and try to see if you can get in. If you really can't, then think of another way."

Li Baoxiang wanted her to write a letter to Shen Songming. When Fang Liuming and Fang Fu entered the Imperial College, Shen Songming must have contributed. This year, Shen Songming is not returning to the capital. He can go to Shen Songming and ask him to help. As long as Pei Qin tells Shen Songming .

Pei Qin pondered, "When are you leaving? I'll send him a message to see if he's still in the capital?"

Li Baoxiang hurriedly cupped his hands to thank, "Why don't you write a letter and take it to me!" This is also a guarantee.

"Let me send a message first to see if he is still in the capital. If you let him be, I will ask for you." Pei Qin said, and called Zhang Gengshan, "Prepare your pen and ink first, and write a letter to ask."

Zhang Gengshan responded, "I'll save you, I'll wait for your lord to come back."

"Yeah." Pei Qin served the tea.

The matter was agreed in this way, but it was not agreed according to their hearts. Li Baoxiang always felt aggrieved and annoyed, and his mood was even worse.

Pei Qin looked very easy to speak.

Yu Qingxiu also felt a little uneasy, the cousin of the Pei family...Too easy to talk?
After agreeing, Li Baoxiang wanted to say something more, but he couldn't say anything, so he had to leave, "The family is busy, and there will be a banquet tomorrow, so we will go home first."

Pei Qin didn't stay either, "You are busy, so I won't keep you here for dinner."

Pei Qian waited for the two to leave, she pouted, "It's already March, Brother Songming is probably going to leave. Why are you waiting for him to go to the Imperial College!?"

Guozijian is not a good place either.If he wants to go, let him try.

Pei Qin wrote a letter to Shen Songming, asking if he was still in the capital.

After setting up wine to celebrate, Li Baoxiang took the gift and went to Fang's house, saying that Pei Qin had already agreed to recommend him to the Imperial College, and all he had to do was find Fang Liuming to send him there.

Old Fang Xiucai's eyes flickered slightly, Da Lang had already been released, where else would he be sent to the Imperial College! ?He also agreed, wrote a letter for him to take with him, and went to the capital to join Fang Liuming.

After everything was done, Li Baoxiang prepared his luggage at home and set a date to go to the capital.Even if you can't go to the Imperial College, you can still find a good master in the capital to study with you.

Mrs. Li wanted Yu Qingxiu to go with her, "She can serve you when she goes. If you go to the Imperial College to study, she can open a noodle restaurant and make money in the capital, and the family doesn't need to give you any more money."

If he went to the capital, he would have to spend money for food, lodging, and walking around, otherwise Mrs. Li wouldn't let Yu Qingxiu follow her to the capital.

"This...isn't that good?" Yu Qingxiu felt a little ashamed to talk about opening a noodle restaurant after asking them to help her walk to the Imperial College.

"What's wrong! Let us open it, it's better than that of Kong's! It's not because of this, Kong didn't know if she was pregnant or not, and they all said that she was pregnant during the filial piety!? Since you can't see We are used to them, we gave away so much, what’s wrong with asking us to open it!? Teaching who is not teaching! Baoxiang will help them if he passes the exam in the future!” Mrs. Li urged Yu Qingxiu to let her go.

Yu Qingxiu looked puzzled, isn't this pushing an inch?
