Great Ming: I, Zhu Di, Declare My Intentions to Seize the Throne from the Start!

Chapter 168 Teachers and students go to the scientific examination, let’s go!

"Shiro."

In front of the house, when Zhu Di was walking with Xu Miaoyun, Xu Miaoyun suddenly raised his hand and pointed forward with a smile.

Zhu Di looked in the direction of Xu Miaoyun's finger...

I saw a big one and a small one coming in the carriage.

Fatty Jiang folded his arms and closed his eyes, as if someone owed him several hundred taels of silver.

The young man Zhou Shixian sat upright and drove the carriage with a serious expression.

puff!

Xu Miaoyun smiled and commented in a low voice: "In the past, Zhou Lang and Fatty Jiang were quite harmonious when they sat together. Now it's young Zhou Shixian and Fatty Jiang. This combination looks a bit funny no matter how you look at it."

Zhu Di also laughed, which was quite funny.

In fact, the personalities of Fatty Jiang and Zhou Shixian were completely incompatible with each other, even if they were sitting there motionless.

"County lords, Mr. Zhu and Mr. Xu." Zhou Shixian reminded.

Only then did Jiang Jinzhong open his eyes, and his round face suddenly bloomed like a flower, full of smiles. He whispered in a low voice: "Mr. Xu has such a big belly, there must be more than one. How can this be so embarrassing?" Let Mr. Zhu cook grilled fish for me..."

Zhou Shixian pursed his lips.

"Don't talk!" Jiang Jinzhong noticed it and stopped him immediately. He was afraid of this kid and couldn't speak, so he stabbed him in the heart.

Just one moment is enough.

The carriage approached, but before it could stand still, Jiang Jinzhong jumped out of the carriage and swayed from side to side...

Zhu Di and Xu Miaoyun were both amused and worried about Fatty Jiang.

Fortunately, Jiang Jinzhong finally stood firm.

"Congratulations to Mr. Zhu and Mr. Xu." The moment Jiang Jinzhong stood firm, he hurriedly clasped his fists in congratulations and walked over quickly.

Xu Miaoyun nodded with a smile.

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang, for your blessing." Zhu Di thanked him with a smile and asked, "I wonder if Mr. Jiang is here this time?"

‘I can’t say that I want to eat Mr. Zhu’s grilled fish, right? Mr. Xu’s belly is so big. No matter how greedy I am, I’m still embarrassed to open my mouth! ’

Jiang Jinzhong felt aggrieved and complained, and said with a smile: "In three days, the child examination will be held. Let me see how the children in the village are preparing."

"I saw it when I entered the village. Mr. Zhu and Mr. Xu taught very well. These children have a very good mentality at such a young age..."

"In addition, I knew that Mr. Xu was about to give birth to a baby, so I sent my blessings and congratulations to Mr. Zhu in advance."

As he spoke, his little eyes glanced in the direction of Zhou Shixian behind him.

He approached Zhu Di and whispered: "Mr. Zhu, you are taking the imperial examination to prepare for becoming an official, right?"

He pointed at Zhu Di and then at himself, "Mr. Zhu, we will be colleagues from now on. Please help me, Mr. Zhu."

"If you have any good ideas like bidding for taxes and showing your face, be sure to bring me with you."

It's okay to brag in front of a child like Zhou Shixian.

But in front of Mr. Zhu, you must have a correct attitude!

Xu Miaoyun tried her best not to laugh.

Zhu Di resisted the urge to take off his shoes and say hello to Fatty Jiang's face, and explained: "I took the exam mainly for the convenience of traveling. After my wife gives birth, I want to take her to travel around the world..."

"I have no plans to become an official for the time being."

"It's okay, it's okay. I believe Mr. Zhu will definitely become an official one day." Jiang Jinzhong said with certainty. He did not believe that a great talent like Mr. Zhu would live in the countryside all his life.

He always firmly believes that Mr. Zhu is living in the countryside now, but he has not found a direction in life and no one to fight for.

A man is born in heaven and earth. He should carry a three-foot sword and achieve unparalleled achievements. How can he live in the countryside for a long time?

Of course, you can just think about it, not say it out loud.

Didn't find the Mingzhu?

If you say this, you will harm Mr. Zhu.

He smiled and patted his chest and promised, "I will give Mr. Zhu a way out in the officialdom first. When the time comes, Mr. Zhu and I will join forces to control the officialdom. Mr. Zhu's goal is the current Prime Minister Xu, and my goal is the current Prime Minister Hu. A new generation replaces the old!”

‘Not long after, my old man chopped off many heads in order to abolish the system of prime ministers. ’

Zhu Di couldn't bear it anymore and quickly changed the subject, "Master Jiang, please come to the room."

"Hold on."

Jiang Jinzhong turned around hurriedly, and with the help of Zhou Shixian, he unloaded a lot of things from the carriage.

There are tonics, wooden horses, and a very exquisite set of Four Treasures of the Study, given to Zhu Di.

Chatted for a while.

Jiang Jinzhong glanced at the plump carp he brought with regret, stood up and said goodbye, "Mr. Zhu, I still have something to do with the county government, so I'll leave first."

"I have already booked a room for Mr. Zhu and the children at Wangxian Tower in Jiangning County. The day before Mr. Zhu's exam, he will arrive in Jiangning County and just sign up and check in."

Wangxianlou Zhu Di knew.

It is said to be the most famous inn and wine shop in Jiangning County.

I have to say that Fatty Jiang is really good at getting things done.

He smiled and clasped his fists in thanks, "Then thank you Mr. Jiang. Mr. Jiang, please stay for lunch. I know Mr. Jiang likes the grilled fish I cook..."

"No, no." Jiang Jinzhong declined politely, pointing to the carp in the water in the barrel, and forcefully explained, "These fish are to wish Mr. Zhu and the children that the carp will leap over the dragon gate."

The carriage goes farther.

Jiang Jinzhong lifted the curtain, took out a bag of ingredients left alone in the car, and said with emotion: "Shixian, this trip with me has gained you some experience. You must have the flexibility to adapt to changes like me. You This guy is just too dull and honest."

Zhou Shixian glanced at the ingredient package in Jiang Jinzhong's hand.

He thought Jiang Jinzhong wanted to teach him.

While driving the carriage seriously, he frowned and thought, "My lord, you left the ingredients in the carriage because you were afraid that Mr. Zhu would guess that you came to eat grilled fish!"

new

Is it so straightforward to say this! If it were your father, he would definitely not say that!

One knife!

Jiang Jinzhong silently put his hands on his chest.

Zhou Shixian didn't notice, but his brows furrowed more tightly, "But Mr. Zhu is such a smart person, I think that when Mr. Zhu sees carp, he will know that you want to eat grilled fish."

"Last time, when Mr. Zhu moved to his new house, you brought your juniors with you. Among the gifts you brought, there was grilled fish."

Two knives!

Jiang Jinzhong closed his eyes in pain.

"My father told me that in front of smart people, it is better to forcefully explain than to admit honestly. My father said that when he and Mr. Zhu met for the first time, they left a bad impression on Mr. Zhu. Later, he did not explain. Instead, I honestly admitted my mistake in front of Mr. Zhu.”

"My father said that if you act clever in front of smart people, they will laugh out loud afterwards."

"Your Excellency, you deliberately used this method to make Mr. Zhu and Mr. Xu happy, right?"

Zhou Shixian thought he had understood Jiang Jinzhong's teachings and turned his head with expectation.

Three swords!

Damn Zhou Lang! I'm sorry for you, let your son come to harm me!

"Well, you are actually quite smart. You can guess all this. You can teach me to drive well." Jiang Jinzhong tried his best to stay calm and forcibly regained his respect by acknowledging.

If Mr. Zhu is really King Zhu Di of Yan.

He will definitely use this method to make him happy, but Mr. Zhu is not the one!

He had tried it out in the beginning.

It can only be said that he has no fate with King Yan, but because of Mr. Zhu, he is remembered by the prince!

Zhou Shixian smiled happily and said, "My lord, you are the second person besides Mr. Zhu who praises me for my intelligence."

‘Silly boy, Mr. Zhu must be comforting you, but you still take it seriously. ’

Jiang Jinzhong cursed and quietly swallowed the bitter pill...

The day before the exam.

Early in the morning.

Uncle Eight and others had driven seven ox carts and donkey carts early.

Five of them were added to the village when purchasing large livestock.

"Shiro, are you ready? You can go."

Inside the house, Zhu Di heard the shouting outside and turned around, "Let's go."

Originally, he planned to let Miaoyun stay at home, with his fourth aunt and the others taking care of her.

But she didn't know if it was time to give birth, so Miao Yun was nervous and scared. She couldn't leave him for a moment and had to follow him.

In this case, he did not dare to leave Miao Yun alone at home.

Xu Miaoyun nodded.

When Zhu Di helped Xu Miaoyun out.

The eighth uncle and the fourth uncle, the best handlebars in the village, were already waiting on the road in front of the house, and the whole village came to see the children off.

The children stood by the car.

A few little girls were there too.

These little girls have never been to Jiangning County since they were young. Although girls are not eligible to take the imperial examination, Miaoyun wants to take them to Jiangning County.

He agreed to this and asked a few girls to accompany Miaoyun when he went to take the exam.

Every leather boy put on the Confucian shirt that he was reluctant to wear on weekdays.

After Zhu Di and Xu Miaoyun came out, they bowed in unison and said, "Master, Master."

The uncles and aunts couldn't help but grin silently when they looked at their children looking so polite.

Everyone knows.

Don't worry about whether your children are suitable for the imperial examination.

But at least it’s different from them who don’t know a word of Chinese characters!

Even the eldest girl who followed Shiro and learned arithmetic for a period of time, followed the adults to visit relatives in a neighboring village during the Spring Festival. People in the neighboring village found out about her and became very popular.

During this time, there was an endless stream of matchmakers coming to the village!

It's really like what Da Ya said.

Learning knowledge for girls is also a rich dowry!

This is the confidence not to be looked down upon by your husband’s family!

Zhu Di looked at the group of eager and excited boys and said with a smile: "Get in the car!"

When the children heard this, they climbed onto the car excitedly.

Zhu Di turned to the aunts who stayed at home and said, "Uncles and aunts, don't worry, we will take good care of the children."

"Don't worry! Aunts, don't worry!"

"Silang, if Dongsheng is naughty outside, teach him a lesson!"

"Yes, you have to take care of Da Ya. If they dare to be naughty, teach them a lesson. The aunts will never blame you."

The aunts all spoke one after another. They couldn't trust others. Could it be that they couldn't trust Shiro and Daya?

During this year, they all saw how Shiro and Daya treated the children.

These children will have to remember the kindness of Shiro and Daya throughout their lives.

Whoever dares to be ungrateful will be scolded by them first!

After saying a few more words, Zhu Di helped Xu Miaoyun get into the carriage pulled by Dahuang at the front.

Dahuang has the docile temperament and is the most stable in pulling carts.

Zhu Di sat on the shaft of the carriage, took the reins from a young man, looked back, looked at the children, eager to try, with excited eyes, and looked at Xu Miaoyun with a smile, "Let's go!"

"Let's go!"

A group of kids, imitating Zhu Di, were laughing and shouting.

royal palace.

Mao Xiang hurried into the palace, his face full of anxiety, and murmured as he walked, "What should I do? Xu Daya is going to Jiangning with me. If something happens, I have 10,000 heads, but I'm afraid I won't be enough for the emperor to chop him off."

"Go to the empress. For the current plan, we have no choice but to go to the empress..."
