This year's spring examination is banned, and it is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for students who have been hanging their beams and dreaming of rising to the top.

The news came out that day, and on the second day, many students gathered at the Ministry of Personnel, surrounding the Ministry of Personnel.

Gu Yanzhen did not allow Gu Xiuzhi to go out.

Gu Xiuzhi didn't want to make trouble either.

But he was listless and in a daze, he sat and couldn't speak.

Gu Yanzhen didn't know the internal reason, so he comforted him: "...If there is a big event in the court, you will definitely add the charity in two years. How young are you? Study hard, and you will definitely be able to make a fortune in the future and serve the court."

Gu Xiuzhi didn't hear his father's words.

He still sat in silence.

Gu Yanzhen didn't care much. He also passed the imperial examination back then, but he gave up because he couldn't endure hardship and didn't want to take the exam. Therefore, he couldn't understand his son's thoughts and thought that the child was the same as him, and he didn't care.

After persuading his son for a few words, Gu Yanzhen went out.

When his father walked out, Gu Xiuzhi's shoulders collapsed.

He buried his face in his palm and did not move for a long time.

Then, the slight sensation of his shoulders could be clearly seen.

He never wants to wait for three years again.

It’s so uncomfortable to spend a day in this home.

But now, who are he going to ask for?

He cried for a long time before he remembered his new chief minister's uncle.

Gu Xiuzhi suddenly sat upright.

He wiped his crying eyes and stood up. He was going to find his uncle.

He remembered that his seventh brother-in-law, King Luyang, once told him that a juren like him could be a small county magistrate. If a family like the Gu family was a child, it would be easy to get his uncle to help him and choose a county magistrate for him.

He is willing to go to remote places, as long as he can leave home.

He couldn't wait for a moment.

Then, he thought: What is he?

Uncle may not necessarily remember his nephew.

The family is willing to speak for him, except for his father, his seventh sister.

My father was a little afraid of his uncle, and probably didn't want to ask for his uncle, and Gu Xiuzhi didn't want his father to make things difficult for him.

Although the seventh sister is the daughter of her legitimate mother, Song, she doesn't hate her younger brother. She is willing to watch her brothers be good.

Sister Qi is the princess of Luyang again. My uncle can also listen to Sister Qi’s sentences.

"Feng Tian, ​​get water to wash my face." He rushed to the door and called out to the servant who served him.

The servant pushed the door and said yes.

After changing his clothes with clean faces, Gu Xiuzhi went out.

Before leaving, he thought that Sister Qi was often on her mother's side, not in the palace, so he called Shutong again and asked him to go over and ask first.

Shutong quickly turned back and said that the princess did not come here today and was in another hall.

Gu Xiuzhi left now.

****

It has already reached the 14th day of the first lunar month. Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival.

Gu Jinzhi remembered the last time he celebrated the Lantern Festival in the palace, seven years ago.

Gu Jinzhi was the clumsy when they guessed riddles that time. At that time, he was afraid that he would make mistakes, so he was shaking it out in person by Zhu Zhongjun. Now when he thinks about it, he is a little warm.

She is still in a difficult state today.

The children were all in front of her and talked to her.

It was revealed that he had also entered the palace tomorrow. Yanying was very happy.

"...Mom, there are so many fun things to do with the emperor's grandmother." Yan Ying said happily. "There is a butterfly, so big. The emperor's grandmother said that she will give it to me next time I go home."

In the Renshou Palace of the Empress Dowager, there was a butterfly rack in the side hall, with a body the size of an adult rooster, made of silk, and thin feather eyelashes with gold were cut. The dust was visible, trembling and lifelike.

That is the treasure that Jiangnan pays tribute.

Such a big and thin butterfly is difficult to be strong and it is very craftsmanship. Even the old craftsmen in Beijing cannot make it.

The Queen Mother liked it very much, so she placed it in the side hall.

Yanying arrived at Renshou Palace and wandered around, and he took a fancy to it.

The Empress Dowager was not reluctant to give up such a thing, but it was easy to break when moved, let alone carry it to Luzhou again. If she gave it to Yanying and wasting things in vain, she would use words to swear the child.

How could I know, Yan Ying always remembers it.

Gu Jinzhi laughed, held Yan Ying in his arms, and said with a smile: "This is not good. The butterfly is the emperor's grandmother's beloved thing, and Yan Ying cannot ask for it."

"Why? The emperor's grandmother said she wanted to give it to me." Yan Ying said in confusion.

Gu Jinzhi smiled, thought for a while, and said, "Is it okay if you give me a tiger-toe shoe that I made for you, Is it good for you to give each of my brother and my third brother?"

Gu Jinzhi once made a pair of tiger-toe sleeping shoes for Yanying, and Yanying loved it very much. Although it was a bit bulky, Yanying liked it very much and had to wear it every day when she went to the capital.

That was his favorite thing.

When Yan Ying heard this, she immediately bulged her mouth and looked at her brother and third brother dissatisfied.

Then he thought again, "Mom, I gave it to my elder brother and third brother. Will you do it for me?"

Gu Jinzhi shook his head.

Yan Ying also shook her head: "I won't give it to you."

"Then you can't ask for the Emperor's grandmother's things," Gu Jinzhi took the opportunity to say.

Yanying hesitated for a long time before saying, "But the emperor's grandmother is willing to give it to me..."

"The emperor's grandmother loves you, so she is willing to give it to you. The emperor's grandmother loves that butterfly, just like the tiger-headed shoes you made by your mother." Gu Jinzhi said, "If someone insists on asking for your shoes, you will be happy

Not happy?”

"Unhappy." Yan Ying immediately said nervously, "Mom, who wants my shoes?"

Then, he stared at the third brother Yanshao fiercely.

He was very smart. He knew that his eldest brother Yanshan's temper was so he would not steal things from him. The only person who would rob him of things was the third son Yanshao.

Because Yan Shao is still young and ignorant, every time he sees Yan Ying taking something fun in his hand, he will ask for something important. Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun will advise Yan Ying to learn to share and

Friendship.

Yanying is very domineering.

Gu Jinzhi taught him many times not to fight for everything and give in to his younger brother as appropriate.

"No one wants your shoes, a gentleman will not take away anyone's love." Gu Jin's way.

"Mom, mom..." Yan Shao stumbled around and walked for a long time. Yanshan supported him. He fell twice, and now he fell again, crying in pain.

Gu Jinzhi asked Yanying to play by herself, and she picked up Yan Shao.

"You go to play with your brother, mom needs to take a break..." Gu Jinzhi was a little bit of a headache by his three sons. She gently rubbed Yan Shao's fallen knees and said to Yan Ying and Yanshan.

Seeing that Gu Jinzhi was still holding Yan Shao, Yan Ying said, "Mom, won't you go?"

Gu Jinzhi put Yan Shao on the ground and asked Yan Ying to lead Yan Shao. He said, "Third brother, go too!"

Only then did Yan Ying feel balanced.

When the three sons vented their anger, Gu Jinzhi breathed a sigh of relief.

Her waist was a little sore.

The pregnancy situation continued this time. I don’t know if this child is fussy or the fatigue of the carriage two months ago made her body worse...

Just as she was about to lie down and rest, the little maid on the second door came in and reported, "Princess, the Eighth Uncle, is here..."

Gu Jinzhi had no choice but to cheer up again.

She asked the maid to invite Gu Xiuzhi in.

She thought about it and remembered that Zhu Zhongjun said the night before yesterday that the court had banned Enko this year and moved it to three years later. The emperor was worried about handing over the important task of seizing scholars to the prince.

Gu Xiuzhi seemed to want to pass the exam, study at Hanlin Academy, and become independent.

Gu Jinzhi also knew his situation.

The spring examination that Gu Xiuzhi had been preparing for so long was about to be cancelled, but he was afraid that he had nowhere to complain.

She felt that Gu Xiuzhi was not bored because she didn't have to take the exam. She ran to her to chat.

There must be a purpose for it.

When Gu Jinzhi thought about raising her baby in Luzhou, he always felt lonely and had no personal visitor. Thinking about it now, he didn't know how to cherish his blessings at that time.

Now I have no time to think about a clean and nourishing my fetus.

Compared to the last time my sister-in-law came, she felt okay today, but she was just a little tired of being frustrated by the children. But her mind is mentally conscious.

She got up and asked the maid to bring her a silver-red coat to change it.

The maid invited Gu Xiuzhi directly to the banquet and living room in the main courtyard.

Gu Jinzhi also rushed over.

Brother Xiu saluted her. The siblings were polite.

"...I heard that the End Department will not be launched this year, and there are still people going to the Ministry of Personnel to cause trouble." Gu Jinzhi said, "You didn't go?"

"I don't, Sister Seven." Gu Xiu said, "It's useless to go. If the person who makes trouble is caught and eliminates his fame, he will not be able to take the exam again in three years..."

Gu Jinzhi nodded with relief: "Yes, the courage of every man seems brave, but in fact he is stupid. If he really has the backbone, don't take the path of scientific examinations. Since he has taken this path, he must understand the rules and abide by the rules."

Gu Xiuzhi said it repeatedly.

Gu Jinzhi's views coincide with his views.

His emotions relaxed a little: "I think so too..."

"…It is normal for students to have resentment." Gu Jinzhi said again, "I came to the capital thousands of miles away, and some people almost came to me. If I return empty-handed, I would be sorry for my elders. But I have caused trouble,

But it is not the solution. Not only will Enko increase in three years, the number of people who will be recruited will definitely double, to make up for the bachelors and appease scholars all over the world."

"Really?" Gu Xiuzhi also had this kind of guess, but after hearing from Sister Qi's words, it felt different.

His mood suddenly became brighter.

Gu Jinzhi smiled and said, "No ten percent, it's 70% or 80%."

Seeing Gu Xiuzhi smiled, she asked him again, "Brother Xiu, where are you? Sister Qi knows that you have always had ambitions and will have to wait for another three years. What are your plans?"

Gu Xiuzhi glanced at Gu Jinzhi, but he wanted to speak but stopped.

Gu Jinzhi said: "It's okay if you say it straight. You know, Brother Xuan is not half as good as you. Our room is up to you and you will be good for your parents. No matter what your plans are, Sister Qi will support you."

"I...I want to go to a remote place in the south and be a county magistrate." Gu Xiuzhi said, "I am in my early twenties. Apart from studying at Songshan Academy, I have never traveled far away. A man reads thousands of books and travels thousands of miles.

I want to go out and experience it.”

"It's also easy." Gu Jin's way, "This dynasty law, if a juren reports to the Ministry of Personnel, he can choose an official. But you have to know that if you go to the Ministry of Personnel to report to the Ministry of Personnel, you can no longer participate in the spring examination.

.Once you get the spring exam, you will have a better future. Why should you be anxious about this time?"

Gu Xiuzhi suddenly felt speechless.
