The Prosperous Era of Longwan

"My second uncle has already taken care of the professor's side. There is no problem for you to enter the private school."

At this moment, Zhang Hongfu said another word lightly.

A few days later, Wei Guangde received the news that he would study in the government, while Zeng Yuanshu chose to return to the county to study.

However, Wei Guangde knew very well that Zeng Yuanshu's return to the county to study was actually just a cover. He had long made up his mind to study at Yuzhang Academy in Nanchang, and the gift had probably been sent to the teacher's home in Pengze County.

Although Wei Guangde also has the idea of ​​going to an academy to get gilded, there is no such thing as a turtle these days. Even if he is a turtle, he will only be regarded as a lowly person when he comes back and has no status at all. Going to a well-known academy is the best way to get gilded.

However, it was already August. Seeing that it would be two months before the provincial examination, Wei Guangde still planned to give it a try.

It was only in early February that Master Sun asked him to take the imperial examination. Within half a year, he had already passed the county examination, government examination, and college examination, and became a scholar of the Ming Dynasty.

Wei Guangde plans to just do it this year and give his father a surprise when he comes back. He has a son.

Wei Guangde entered Jiujiang Fuxue as an associate student, along with Zhu Shilong, Lao Kan and others, whom he met on the road and at the gate of Fuxue.

With the guidance of Zhu Shilong, an old student, Wei Guangde integrated here very quickly. He just wrote a letter and sent it back to Peng Ze through the health institute's system.

It is worth mentioning that the last entrance examination was also a scientific examination for students in Jiujiang Prefecture. Only students who passed the scientific examination can participate in this year's provincial examination.

What Wei Guangde has to prepare for now is the provincial examination in one month.

Although Wei Guangde was full of confidence in the provincial examination at this time, he also knew his shortcomings.

During these two months, he continued to look for and learn from the more outstanding eight-part essays in recent years in Fucheng, as well as to strengthen his policy writing skills.

Back then, I also went through the old path of exam-oriented education. Now it’s not hard to pick it up again. I just keep catching stereotypes and discussing strategies.

Of course, Wei Guangde now encounters many problems. The main problem is that he can't find a teacher to give guidance.

He didn't dare to take these papers prepared for the provincial examination to the professors or supervisors, not even the teachers. It felt like they were working behind closed doors.

Although he knew that this operation was probably not good, Wei Guangde had no choice but to find a reliable teacher to give him some advice.

Fortunately, so far, Wei Guangde still feels that as long as he takes the provincial examination, he has a high probability of passing, so he doesn't feel much psychological pressure because the examination period is approaching.

"Guangde, hey, Guangde, was there really a vision from heaven when you were born?"

At this time, Lao Kan, a seemingly honest man, approached Wei Guangde's desk and asked, but the smile on his face revealed his true thoughts.

"What do you think?"

Wei Guangde didn't expect that the rumors had spread to Jiujiang Mansion. This was a bit scary. Who was pushing it behind the scenes? This was because he had a lot of hatred against him.

"Hehehe, one of my shopkeepers came back from Pengze yesterday and said that he heard from the people below that a few days ago, there was a vision of yours coming from the sky, and soon it was the Wenqu star that fell into your Bengshan Castle. , the flowers bloomed in an instant, and the whole Pengze County was filled with fragrance, which one is real?"

Lao Kan asked jokingly from the side.

"Even if it is true, do you think I can know?"

Many students before and after heard what was said here, and turned their heads to look over.

Wei Guangde couldn't continue reading now. He closed the book and looked at Lao Kan seriously and said, 'When you were selected as a scholar, didn't the neighbors say that you were a literary star? ’

"hehe."

"Ha ha."

Hearing Wei Guangde's words, several classmates around him laughed out loud in unison.

For people in small places, Wenquxing is really worthless. Maybe people in the northern and southern capitals, as well as those ancient capitals, are a little more knowledgeable and know that generally only the number one scholar is Wenquxing.

He is just a scholar, not a literary star.

Thinking about Wei Guangde's background, it is said that he came from a town in the east of Pengze County or a military fort in the east of the town. They could also imagine that those rough military men had never seen any scholars, so they regarded a scholar as a scholar. As a literary star descended to earth.

What the hell, there are several versions of the rumors. Can you please unify them first? How can people believe this?

But listening to Lao Kan's words, there should be no malicious intent. He explained the ins and outs very clearly, especially the versions of the heavenly visions. They were all told so that people would know they were fake as soon as they heard them. There was no limit to how fake they were.

"I'm just saying, look, we have a room full of talented people, look at how old Guangde Xiandi is and he came in. If he's not a Wenquxing, no wonder, no wonder, hehe."

Reading is boring. At this moment, several classmates around me want to understand the ins and outs and come over to make fun of it. It can be regarded as a way to relax after reading.

Well, according to the professor, Wei Guangde seems to be the youngest student in Jiujiang Fu School in so many years.

Of course, it was also because of his young age that although he did not do well in the entrance examination, the professor was still willing to give him the opportunity to stay in the private school and study. The professor would never say who he had received gifts from. .

"Why do I feel that if Guangde's eldest brother were named Wei Wenqu, the scholar would have nothing to do with him?"

"We have to ask Guangde when he returns, what kind of vision came from the sky when his brother was born."

"That's right, don't the Jieyuan of our province and the number one scholar in the imperial examination in the capital all say that they are Wenquxing? I feel that there are big and small Wenquxings."

"It makes sense, it makes sense."

After staying in Fu Xue for half a month, Wei Guangde became familiar with the classmates in Fu Xue. He even had banquets many times. Anyway, the money he brought was flowing out.

Poor people, in this era, are really not qualified to study.

Not only are the books extremely expensive, but also the money can be spent on making friends and making connections.

Of course, if Wei Guangde did not stay in Fucheng, but returned to Pengze, maybe the expenses would not be so high. It would not be a problem to send some gifts to the teachings, or to go to the county school. At most, it would be during the holidays and the annual exams. Go to the county to deliver gifts and articles.

Knowing that the joke couldn't continue, before Wei Guangde opened his mouth, Lao Kan smiled and asked the classmates around him: "When do you plan to set off for the provincial examination next month? Should we all go together?"

When they heard about the rural examination, the few people who had talked about rising earlier stopped talking and looked around to see what other people were planning.

"I heard last time that Yuan Shu took your boat to Nanchang Prefecture to take the exam, and he passed the exam. Can you get a boat this time so that it can be convenient for me, brother?"

Seeing that no one else said anything, Lao Kan simply said it to Wei Guangde himself.

"It's not a big problem, but you also know that I don't have anything to say about the guardhouse. I'll ask Uncle Zhang when I get back tonight and we can take a boat there together if it's convenient."

Wei Guangde smiled and said to the classmates around him.
