  Chapter 49 048【Xiaye? Bandits? Strong man? 】

  At the beginning of May, the Taoist test released the list.

  Qianshan County has admitted a total of 21 scholars, and Hanzhu Academy has 4 of them. None of the private schools at the foot of the mountain were admitted, and they all came from the academy halfway up the mountain.

   Of the four newly released scholars, only one has the surname Fei, and the rest are children of foreign surnames.

  The school immediately resumed classes. After lunch, a group of schoolchildren came in surrounded by Fei Ruyu.

   "Which family does this Fei Ruyu belong to?" Zhao Han asked curiously, "I have never heard of it before, but suddenly I got the top spot in the county examination."

  Fei Yuanjian sneered: "My second nephew's family must have bribed the county magistrate."

  If you get the first place in the county test, you will definitely be admitted in the prefectural test, otherwise, the magistrate will not give face to the magistrate.

  Therefore, bribing the county magistrate to be the head of the crime will surely be promoted to Tongsheng!

  Fei Ruhe also sneered and said, "What's the air? It's just that you got a child, and you're like a scholar."

   "Why are scholars so easy to test?" Fei Yuanjian began to gossip, "I heard people say that this year's Jiangxi Inspector is a very famous Confucian. His name is Cai... What is Cai?"

   Xu Ying interrupted suddenly: "Cai Maode."

"Yes, it's Cai Maode!" Fei Ruhe also joined the discussion, "My father said a few days ago that this Cai Tixue is a real and honest official. Anyone who tried to cheat in the Taoist exam this year was found out. I want to spend money to buy it." Cai Tixue drove away all the scholars. In the spring, he was invited to give lectures at Bailudong Academy. Thousands of scholars attended the lectures. "

  Is it so awesome?

  Zhao Han seems to have some impressions, and it seems that this is the first time he has heard of it.

  Zhao Han was chatting at this table, Fei Ruyu also sat down at the other table, surrounded by schoolchildren and flattering.

   "First in the county test, and passed the government test, it's a fluke." Fei Ruyu was still very modest and low-key, he asked a clansman next to him, "How did the eighth brother pass the government test?"

   Tong Sheng, who was called the eighth younger brother, burst out laughing: "It was scribbled, thanks to the help from the neighbor."

  Fei Ruyu was surprised and said, "Did the neighbor help you solve the problem?"

  The eighth brother shook his head and said with a smile, "Hey, my neighbor broke half of it for me."

   "Let's talk about it." Fei Ruyu was rather curious.

  Eighth brother himself thought it was funny: "Master Zhifu is a lunatic, even if he came up with a question, he would make me look stupid."

  Fei Ruyu said: "I know, it's the 'Wang Ru is lustful, the minister of the king entrusts his wife and friends'. How did you solve the problem?"

The eighth brother said: "I kept chanting 'The minister of the king entrusts his wife' and tired of the students sitting next to him. Then the man said 'entrust his friend instead of the king, the king is also lustful'. I quickly copied it, and this Passed the government test!"

   "Hahahahaha!"

  All the schoolchildren couldn't stop laughing.

  Xu Ying looked strange, and said in a low voice: "If this person can pass the government test, he must have bribed the magistrate, at least he also bribed the magistrate's teacher."

  Zhao Han exclaimed: "The Jiangxi imperial examination is so difficult that this kind of question is asked in the government examination?"

  The magistrate is a bastard!

  The two passages before and after "Mencius · King Hui of Liang" were separated and pulled together.

The general idea of ​​the two paragraphs of the original text is: the ruler can make the people live a good life, so it is not shameful to be lustful, it is just human nature... Some people entrust their wives and children to friends, but they go on a trip by themselves, and when they come back, they find that their wives and children are starving. freeze. How should such a friend be treated?

  And the eighth younger brother's question is completely off the mark, which means: the courtiers did not entrust their wives to the king of Qi, but to the friends of the king of Qi, because the king of Qi is lustful.

   Then, this person was admitted as a child student...

  Didn't pay bribes to be damned!

  Fei Ruyu and that eighth brother, after lunch, were surrounded by their friends and went up the mountain.

  Even if you don’t pass the exam, as long as you can be a child student, you can leave the private school at the foot of the mountain and go to the academy halfway up the mountain to study.

  If Cai Maode, the vice envoy of Tixue, was not for his incorruptibility, these two guys would probably be able to directly get the fame of a scholar by using money secretly!

  At this moment, Cai Maode is writing a memorial. He wants to impeach the prefect of Guangxin for making random exam questions and deliberately leading candidates into the ditch.

  Why do you ask questions indiscriminately?

   Most of the candidates were confused, and all of them were messed up in the exam, so that dozens of them could be easily recommended, and no evidence of imperial examination fraud could be found.

  After this incident, Zhao Han completely stopped thinking about the imperial examination.

   "Don't worry about them, let's practice martial arts!" Fei Ruhe laughed.

  Fei Yuanjian said: "Yes, yes, practice martial arts!"

  Fei Ruhe selected more than a dozen private school students, and compiled and trained the army formation that the teacher had just taught, with high spirits like a general.

  The schoolchildren were forced by his **** and felt that training soldiers and fighting was fun, so they were all in high spirits at first.

  But on the second day, half of the schoolchildren had problems, such as diarrhea, or a cold and fever. Anyway, they just didn’t come to practice.

  Too hard!

  Fei Ruhe was furious: "If you dare to fool this young master, I will beat them to death!"

  Zhao Han hurriedly pulled him back, and said with a smile: "If you don't want to, so what if you want to train soldiers? These people can't count on them, so let's practice by ourselves."

   The next few months will be uneventful.

  Zhao Han reads, practices martial arts, and learns the art of war every day, and his friendship with Xu Ying and San Fei has become closer.

  Fei Yuanjian has a new book boy, who was chosen by Mrs. Chen. The book boy's name is Fei Yu, he is smart and quite sensible, so three fees became four fees.

   Zhao Han began to grow taller, growing six centimeters in half a year.

  This winter, a strong man suddenly came to Mount Hanzhu, followed by two strong men, one black and one white.

   "Fourth Uncle, why did you go back to Qianshan Mountain?" Fei Ruhe was ecstatic.

  Fei Yinggong said: "The family and the country are important!"

  Fei Ruhe said: "Fourth Uncle, I have met some good brothers, from now on I will learn how to be a chivalrous man like you."

   "Get a bowl of water first, I'm thirsty." Fei Yinggong's mouth was dry.

   The uncle and nephew went to the dormitory, which surprised Zhao Han.

  The entourage brought by this fourth uncle, one of them is a black man, a ghost slave who was sold to China by Portugal!

(Ghost slaves are the black servants of Fanguo. The wealthy people in Guangzhong have many animal slaves and ghost slaves. They are extremely powerful and can bear hundreds of catties. They can't understand their speech and desires. They are pure in nature and don't flee. They are also called savages. Their color is as black as ink. Red lips and white teeth, curly and yellow hair, male and female.)

  Daming is the most important importing country of black slaves in the entire East Asia region. Rich people buy more slaves to look after their homes instead of farming and picking cotton.

  The black slave next to Fei Yinggong was over 1.8 meters tall, obviously carefully selected, and the purchase price was extremely expensive.

   "Meet the fourth uncle!" Zhao Han cupped his hands and bowed.

  Fei Ruhe introduced: "This is Zhao Han, father's adopted adopted son, also called Fei Han."

  Fei Yinggong poured a bowl of clear water, nodded to Zhao Han, and said, "I'm going to the mountain, you can play by yourself."

  Fei Ruhe hurriedly asked: "Fourth Uncle hasn't been home for several years, why did he run up the mountain as soon as he came back?"

   "Something has happened." Fei Yinggong said as he walked.

   "What's the big deal?" Fei Ruhe hurriedly followed.

Fei Yinggong said: "The Tartars broke through, and the imperial court was at a loss. They rushed to call King Qin for eight hundred miles. The governor of Wei is summoning the army of King Qin of Jiangxi. I will go back to Qianshan to recruit soldiers from Fei's family. None of Fei's sects will join his mother." I am willing to serve the king, and only send a few taels of silver to support military expenses. I will come to the academy to try my luck and see if I can recruit some people with lofty ideals."

  Zhao Han was very surprised, and he also chased after him and asked, "When did it happen?"

   "Just last month," Fei Yinggong didn't bother to talk to the children, "I won't tell you, I'm going up the mountain quickly!"

  Jiangxi Governor Wei Zhaocheng, although greedy and incompetent, but in the winter of the second year of Chongzhen, he was the only local governor who was ordered to serve the king in the entire southern region.

  At least, sincerely commendable!

  Watching Fei Yinggong up the mountain, Zhao Han couldn't help but ask, "What does your fourth uncle usually do?"

  "Great hero!" Fei Ruhe was so triumphant that he felt honored with You.

  In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, due to fierce social conflicts, the thought of "chivalry" became popular and developed abnormally.

  For example, Nanzhi Xieyuan Chen Zushou in the first year of Tianqi was already raising chivalrous men. When he became a doctor in the Ministry of War, he made friends with more than a thousand strong men, all of whom were "Heroes of Yuyang". After his death, someone wanted to recruit these knights. Those knights said, "how can I pay my respects to the officials if I wait for righteousness to die for Mr. Chen?"

   Another example is Yin Geng, the deputy envoy of military preparations during the Jiajing period, who had no money to go to Beijing for a test. He won ten taels of silver by fraudulent gambling, and bought a bad horse to go north. Just a hundred miles away, you get a good horse. As far as the capital, he was covered with money, all gifts from thieves along the way.

   There is also Liu Tao, the censor of Zuodu during the Jiajing period. When he was sent to Shandong, the bandit leaders of the Central Plains defected one after another, and he went to Jinan Mansion with him to take office.

  Shoufu Gao Gong's elder brother Gao Jie, a young man named Ren Xia, even after he won the imperial examination, he also robbed business travelers with a group of thieves.

  Wang Yangming's apprentices and grandchildren have even produced a bunch of heroes.

   These people are usually great Confucianists, and they take their disciples to give lectures everywhere, often attracting thousands of people. Many thieves and knights came to join him, worshiping him as his disciples, and great Confucians turned into the leader of knights.

  Cui Chengxiu, the leader of the five tigers of the **** party, made friends with many heroes when he was patrolling Huaiyang. He released the robbers arrested by the local government after paying two thousand taels of silver.

  Fei Yinggong, the fourth young master of the Fei family, is a "Confucian man".

  This guy is carrying a book of sages on his body, wandering around in the name of studying abroad. He sometimes visits famous teachers to study, and sometimes makes friends with bandits to rob him. He has become famous in Jiangxi, Fujian, and Guangdong provinces, and many local officials respect him very much.

  This time Qin Wang, he brought hundreds of bandits, and they have been put under the command of governor Wei Zhaocheng.

  The country is about to perish, and there will be evildoers!
