Rise From the Humble

Since the beginning of winter, the north wind has been biting and the cold has been freezing, freezing the Qinhuai River. The biting cold wind is howling north and south, and fallen leaves are falling with the wind. Under the roots of an old tree, a shivering yellow-haired dog looks puzzledly at the people on the other side of the Qinhuai River. It’s a species called humans. The furry one feels cold, but why are the non-hairy ones so lively?

"You're lucky. Although you're at the bottom of the list, you're still at the top, aren't you? I want to give more incense sticks to the ancestors of your Zhu family when I go back."

Guo Ziyu had a strange look on his face and walked over with a mocking look on his face. He even looked at Zhu Ping'an from top to bottom.

"What's the matter, won't you burn incense for your ancestors when you go back? You must forget your ancestors by reading scriptures."

Zhu Ping'an was fine, but the fat man beside him couldn't help it anymore. He had already disliked these guys who used their nostrils to look at people. You act like you are so noble, but you look at everyone as if they are beggars!

"Who are you? Oh, I remember, your chrysanthemum poem was pretty good." Guo Ziyu glanced at the fat man up and down, let out a laugh, and whipped out the fat man's most embarrassing embarrassment in the college examination.

ko

After hearing the chrysanthemum poem, the fat man's fat face turned red. There was still room for him to fight back.

"Your luck this time is really enviable." After Guo Ziyu dealt with the fat man, he stood next to Zhu Pingan and said with a stern look.

The day has finally come. I was overtaken by this boy in the college entrance examination, which made me depressed for a long time. I couldn't understand how I, who was full of poems and books, could be overtaken by such a naive young man. I was destined to win. The head of the case was actually taken away by this kid. Now, finally. Back on the right track, feel proud!

But the only pity is. This kid was so lucky that he was so lucky that he got hit on the head by the last spot.

Guo Ziyu looked at Zhu Pingan. The anger still hasn't completely subsided.

"Yeah, I think so too." Zhu Pingan smiled slightly, cupped his hands, and replied lightly.

Guo Ziyu looked at Zhu Ping'an's gentle smile and was stunned.

He punched the cotton and looked at Zhu Ping'an's gentle smile. For some reason, Guo Ziyu felt a fishy sweetness in his mouth, which made him feel very depressed. It's not something you should argue with. Tell me how good your answer is! I might as well take out my seventy-nine article and slap this one hundred and thirty-five boy in the face! But why do you smile so calmly? What about your sense of shame! How can I continue?

"Brother Zhu's luck is indeed enviable to us, but the strength of Brother Guo and Brother Liu is even more enviable to Feng. Sixty-three, seventy-nine, they are worthy of their reputation." Feng Shanshui also waved in the winter. Wearing a folding fan. Ru Ya said compliments very much.

Feng Shanshui's words made Guo Ziyu's complexion suddenly change for the better. Looking at Zhu Ping'an, a sense of superiority in rank and strength arose spontaneously.

at this time

Only an inappropriate chatter was heard that roughly broke the atmosphere.

"Dare to ask. Who is Mr. Zhu Ping'an?"

Everyone followed the sound and saw a rather luxuriously dressed man with a goatee leading more than ten uniformly dressed servants. He asked everyone a little arrogantly.

"I am Zhu Pingan. May I ask what you are doing?" Zhu Pingan replied with some doubts.

The man with a male goat's beard walked up to Zhu Pingan and looked him up and down, and his outward attitude became somewhat respectful. But the arrogance still didn't go down much, and he raised his fists. His eyes almost reached the sky, and he said condescendingly:

"I am the general envoy of the General Affairs Department and the right minister of the Ministry of Industry. Well, for the time being, I am also the housekeeper of Zhao Wenhua, the academic officer of South Zhili."

When these words came out, there was a sound of inhalation all around.

Just now I thought that the arrival of the fifth-grade Tongzhi master was a big deal, but I didn't expect that this representative turned out to be a third-grade senior official, and he was also the head of all the students who had direct jurisdiction over the academic officer and was in charge of everyone's destiny.

General Administration Department, commonly known as Yintai. The head of the General Affairs Department worships the General Affairs Envoy, who is a high-ranking official of the third rank. He has officials such as left-right general affairs and counselors under him to help him manage the General Affairs Department. The Department of General Affairs is very important. This department is the hub between the local government and the central government. The emperor's orders must be conveyed to the local governments through this department. Local matters, including civil cases, frontier military information, etc., must be transmitted to the central government through this department.

He is a third-rank official, and he is also the General Secretary of the General Affairs Department. He is in charge of official documents sent to the capital from all over the country. This is an important person around the emperor!

What is this for?

Everyone looked at Butler Gongyanghu and Zhu Pingan without blinking, breathing nervously.

Hearing this, Zhu Ping'an glanced at the Gong Yanghu butler standing opposite him. He felt a little weird. Did he have a conflict with Zhao Wenhua, the most fucked-up person in history? This time he was almost killed by his family when he first came to Yingtian. The coachman crashed into him, and Zhao Wenhua deliberately made things difficult for him during the scientific examination. At this moment, another housekeeper came.

However, I didn't expect that Zhao Wenhua was already the general envoy of the General Affairs Department and the right minister of the Ministry of Industry at this time. In modern times, this is a deputy ministerial level official.

In the eyes of everyone, the gong-bearded housekeeper looked at Zhu Ping'an and continued, "My lord read the young master's provincial examination ink paper and admired it very much. It just so happened that my third lady was waiting for marriage, and my lord was willing to betroth the third lady to the young master." As a wife, I wonder if it’s okay?”

After Butler Gongyanghu finished speaking, with a look, the more than ten servants behind him dispersed to Zhu Pingan and surrounded him.

Is this a third-grade official coming to capture his son-in-law? ! This act directly blinded everyone's eyes. Oh my god, what did I see? A third-grade official caught his son-in-law during the rural examination! Isn’t it true that officials of this level always try to catch the son-in-law of a Jinshi after the imperial examination? Why are you joining in the fun of this kind of rural examination?

It was unusual enough for a third-grade official to try to catch his son-in-law in the countryside for the first time. What's more, what surprised everyone the most was that the person to catch his son-in-law was actually the last one on the list!

The last one, is there any mistake?

How could it be wrong! A third-grade official has been accompanying you like a tiger for so many years, how could he make a mistake?

But that’s why I can’t figure it out!

Guo Ziyu and others, who were originally arrogant and full of superiority, looked at this scene in disbelief at this moment, and their eyes almost fell to the ground!

It's strange, my cheeks are so hot!

The girl with a ponytail who was watching silently from a distance lowered her head silently, her slender hands clasping the corners of her clothes, feeling sad.

"You see, this kind of young man is not what we can expect." Another girl who was a few years older pressed the shoulder of the girl with a ponytail and said quietly.

Everyone is extremely envious, jealous and hateful towards Zhu Pingan. They are a hundred times more jealous than the Jie Yuan just now, uh, who is Jie Yuan? Now they only know this Zhu Pingan. This is a third-rank official, the highest official of the General Administration Department, a famous person around the emperor, and the most important thing is that he has an extraordinary relationship with Lord Yan Songyan, the chief minister of the early dynasty! As a son-in-law, the future examinations, palace examinations, and official positions are not all smooth sailing. Moreover, I have long heard that the third lady of Mr. Zhao's family is as beautiful as a fairy.

Everyone's gaze on Zhu Pingan could almost burn Zhu Pingan on a cold day. Envious, jealous, and hateful, everyone wished they were the young man in the center right now!

Moved

The boy moved!

Amidst the envy and jealousy in everyone's eyes, Zhu Ping'an looked at Gongyang Hu butler with joy and bowed deeply.

Butler Gongyanghu smiled, everything is under the control of the adults, and no one will refuse.

At this moment, everyone was extremely jealous.

After Zhu Pingan bowed deeply, he stood up, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said happily:

"I come from a humble background. It would be great if I could climb high. However, how about you wait until I get home to discuss it with my wife?"

When the onlookers heard this, they were stunned for more than ten seconds, then were surprised, and then laughed.

But in the laughter, there is a deep roar of grass and mud horses!

It was unusual enough for a third-grade official to try to catch his son-in-law in the countryside for the first time. What's more, what surprised everyone the most was that the person to catch his son-in-law was actually the last one on the list! However, the most incredible thing is that the last person on the list actually refused! ! !
