Chapter 234 Golden Wind Jade Dew (3)
With those children of the Yang family, Yang Tinghe's appearance would not be a crooked person. Before Shen Rui met the real person, Yuzi's father also guessed Yang Tinghe's appearance, but when he saw the real person, he was still shocked.
With the elegant and handsomeness of Wang Hua, Wang Shouren and his son, Yang Tinghe's appearance is not surprising to Shen Rui. What surprised him was that this future powerful minister had a familiar temperament, just like his class director in college.
Yang Tinghe is over 30 years old, but he looks like he is about thirty years old. If he hadn't kept his short beard and put him and Wang Shouren in the same place, he would have been the same age, but in fact the two were half a day apart.
This kind of youth is not just about the youthful appearance, but about the feeling.
People who have been in the officialdom for a long time always unconsciously bring their official power and gloom, but Yang Tinghe shows his gentleness and elegance.
He wore a semi-new Confucian shirt, looking like a master, not an official, and this feeling was very warm and friendly.
Wang Hua and Wang Shouren and his son are elegant in temperament, but they feel like snow on the mountains, which makes people look up to them. They are completely different from Yang Ting and this kind of master next door.
When Shen Rui was observing Yang Tinghe, Yang Tinghe also looked at the boy in front of him. Although his face was like spring breeze, his eyes were flickering and he also had concerns in his heart.
As a magnificent person who passed the college entrance examination at the age of 11 and was a twelve, Yang Tinghe was different from ordinary people in his youth. Therefore, Yang Tinghe did not feel inappropriate about Shen Rui's restraint and steadyness, but instead felt that this son was not frivolous.
No need to compare with others, just being with your own son, will overwhelm Yang Shen, who is so arrogant that he can't hide his arrogance.
Although Yang Tinghe felt a little uncomfortable, he had to admit that compared to Shen Rui's restrainedness, his eldest son was like a child pretending to be an adult.
Shen Rui has such an introverted temperament and is quite tempted by Yang Tinghe's appetite, but Yang Tinghe is very talented and has a good knowledge of himself. After meeting Shen Rui, the first thing he did was to take the exam for Shen Rui's knowledge.
Shen Rui has been reborn in the Ming Dynasty for four years. Except for the more than a month of keeping his soul, he spent all his thoughts on the Four Books and Five Classics during the rest of the time, so naturally he would not be asked by Yang Tinghe.
However, these rote memorized things in the Four Books and Five Classics are nothing. Yang Tinghe pointed to the book case and casually wrote a title, asking Shen Rui to write a test poem.
Shen Rui was silent on his face, but his mouth felt a little bitter.
In recent years, he has worked hard on his current writings and has figured out the rules of the eight-legged essay. Whether he wants to be floral or has to be a good person, he can pick up his pen. However, he can only say that he is forced to write poems, but he can't say that he is good at it. After all, writing poems requires spiritual energy, and Shen Rui can only be regarded as a scholar, not a poet.
He grinded ink by himself, pondered for a cup of tea, then picked up the pen and asked for a five-character test poem, then put down the brush, bowed to Yang Tinghe, and said with shame: "You guy shows your timidity, and I will teach you my uncle first."
After Yang Tinghe took over the manuscript, he saw that his pen was like a dragon and a snake. He thought it was a good handwriting, but after judging the content, he felt a little stiff.
The content of this test poem can only be considered mediocre. Perhaps for a thirteen-year-old boy, a test poem every quarter of an hour is considered to be quite impatient, but Shen Rui is not an ordinary person, he has a honorary teacher in the capital.
Even if he studied literature for a short time and could not compare to Wang Shouren, in terms of poetry, he was a little unreasonable than Yang Shen.
Yang Tinghe felt a little disappointed.
Shen Rui knew his shortcomings, and when he saw Yang Tinghe reacting like this, he felt a little embarrassed.
Yang Shen was curious and moved behind Yang Tinghe to explore the contents of the poem.
Yang Tinghe's expression returned to normal, and he left the manuscript of the poem and said, "The words are used correctly, and the words are very elegant."
However, he did not judge the content of the poem, but asked: "Listen to He Xueshiyun, you are studying under Wang Bo'an, when will you join Wang Bo'an?"
Shen Rui replied honestly: "In the twelfth lunar month of the tenth year of Hongzhi, he worshiped his teacher and studied with him."
Wang Shouren was a Jinshi in the 12th year of Hongzhi. Yang Tinghe calculated the time in his heart. Shen Rui and Wang Shouren studied for at most half a year, and he felt relieved.
When Wang Shouren was young, he was famous in the capital for his outstanding talent and knowledge. He was only frivolous and arrogant, so he was not satisfied with his career. Now that Shen Rui is steady in his words and deeds, Yang Tinghe is not afraid of him following his teacher's footsteps, but he is afraid of his lack of academic qualifications.
Yang Tinghe was from the imperial examination and now his brothers and nephews are studying for their careers, so he naturally hopes that his son-in-law will take the imperial examination career in the future.
After all, in the eyes of scholars, the right way to enter the imperial examination is to enter the officialdom.
The reason why Yang Tinghe considered this marriage was not only because Shen Rui was the son of Shangshu, but also because he was Wang Hua's disciple.
Although Yang Tinghe was younger than Wang Hua, he was actually a premier official than him. However, one was the same Jinshi and the other was the top scholar, and the other was the top scholar, with different circumstances.
Unlike the court chiefs who feared and suppressed Wang Hua, Yang Tinghe himself respected Wang Hua very much.
Although there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts, in the eyes of scholars, those who can win the top scorer are still talented and knowledgeable.
Yang Tinghe was chatting with Shen Rui here, while Yang Shen was beside him, his eyes involuntarily falling on the desk, and his eyebrows were furious as he looked.
He silently recited Shen Rui's test poem several times in his mind, but he felt that it was mediocre and had no excellence.
A famous teacher and a good disciple, Shen Rui is not bad at all, so why did he write such a barely decent poem?
Is it a moment of discomfort or is it deliberately mean?
Yang Shen couldn't help but feel angry, and his eyes looked at Shen Rui a little unkind, thinking that he was like this because he was not satisfied with the marriage.
Even if you have fame and fortune, you will have such a guess at this age.
The marriage is so good that the two surnames have not officially published, but since it is time to "look at each other", it is impossible to have a child say a word.
Yang Tinghe has already talked about the spring examination in the 12th year of Hongzhi. He just wanted to know that since Wang Shouren was in the capital, who had not yet entered the capital?
Although Yang Tinghe did not show it, Shen Rui also felt his importance to studying and doing business.
No matter who Shen Rui is or whose student, if there is no hope of the imperial examination, the marriage should be left unresolved.
Who made the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, and the nobles and nobles were all decorations. Only those who were born in the imperial examinations could have risen to the top. Yang Tinghe was also a loving daughter, and it was not the present.
Although Shen Rui felt chills when he looked at the nine-year-old Yang Tianer, he was happy to get married.
Whether it is about reality or understanding practice, getting married to the Yang family has made the Shen family stand on the side of the Eastern Palace Party members and have no worries for the next twenty years. Twenty years later, Shen Rui is in his prime and will not be as passive as he is now.
Therefore, Shen Rui was not humble and moved Shen Li out directly.
If Yang Tinghe gives people a feeling of warmth and peace, then Shen Rui's mask is "young valor" and "simple and pure".
Shen Rui said shyly: "The boy was naughty when he was young, and started studying at the age of nine. He was lucky enough to be under the teacher's school... After the teacher returned home, the boy learned literature from his six-sect brothers, and then three years later. But the boy's qualifications are not as good as the brothers of the six-sect brothers..."
When Yang Tinghe heard this, he felt a little moved: "You are the brother of the six clans, but Mr. Chen, who was in trouble in the past few years?
Shen Rui nodded and said, "It's the brother of the sixth clan..."
Yang Shen listened, his heart bubbled up with sorrow.
Yang Tinghe looked at Shen Rui softly. He was like Mao Cheng when he first met Shen Rui, and was surprised after being disappointed.
Children of scholars have all enlightenment at the age of three or four, and it is common for them to study for ten years. However, Shen Rui started studying at the age of nine, and his current achievements in four years are enough to prove that his study qualifications are far beyond ordinary people.
Even Yang Ting and himself, if they only read books for four years with Shen Rui, they would not be said to be better than Shen Rui.
Yang Tinghe no longer worried about Shen Rui's career in the imperial examination.
The eldest master of the Shen family and the second master are both Jinshi. Shen Rui's clan brother is the top scholar and his master is the top scholar. With such a group of efforts, there is still no Jinshi to be offered?
But since there is a teaching of the diligence, the Shen family’s previous reasons are somewhat untenable.
Yang Tinghe was able to go through four dynasties and was the chief assistant of two dynasties, so he was naturally comparable to his heart.
After a little thought, he realized the reason why Shangshu Chen did not want his son to continue reading from Chen Li, but was just to avoid the taboo of Xie Ge Lao.
He looked at Shen Rui, and his eyes were filled with more fun.
It is said that famous teachers produce great disciples. Shen Rui has such a teacher and such cousin, and he is also a little curious about how far he will go.
He looked at Yang Shen again and decided to urge his eldest son's academic work more strictly in the future. Although Yang Shen has passed the college entrance examination first, he may not be able to be better than Shen Rui in the provincial examination in a few years...
Shen Rui and Xu had lunch before returning from Yang's house. The master was already anxious.
Although he was interested in getting married, he also knew the truth that "a good wife and man in the family would not suffer any trouble." The master was still very concerned about the character of his future daughter-in-law.
Shen Rui first told the master, Xu reported the details of the answer with Yang Tinghe, and then went back to Jiuruyuan.
This time he met Yang Tinghe, he had nothing to do with him, but he still hurt his self-esteem. Mao Cheng and Yang Tinghe were like this before.
Now Shen Rui is still young and can use short study time to deal with others, and can also use this excuse to deceive himself. In another two years, he will be shameless to use short study time to cover up his shame.
Holding the "Four Books Collection", Shen Rui gritted his teeth.
For those who have been through the examination-oriented education for later generations in 20 years, Shen Rui has a good plan for his imperial examination. He should take the Boy Examination before the age of fifteen, pass the Juren before the age of twenty, and pass the Second Class Jinshi before the age of thirty.
But now, under the name of a famous disciple, there is a lot of pressure. If he continues step by step, he will become a mediocre person in the eyes of others...
Shen Rui finally understood Mao Chi's feelings...
In the main room, the master couldn't wait to ask: "What is the talent of the eldest lady of the Yang family?"
"It's very beautiful and has a good conversation. It's a generous little lady who deserves her second brother..." Speaking of this, Xu was a little hesitant: "It's just that the Yang family's concubines have too many children, and the three sons and one daughter are all born from the same mother. The second son of the concubine is half a year older than the Yang family's eldest wife."
The master frowned and thought: "Yang Jiefu is well-behaved and will not mess with the legitimate and illegitimate. Even if he has an inner favor, it is just a trivial matter."
Xu said: "The eldest brother of the Yang family is proud, but he can pass the hospital examination at the age of thirteen, which is enough to be proud..."
The master smiled faintly and said, "If other families had such outstanding children, they had already been promoted, but the boss of the Yang family was not showing off outside. Yang Jiefu is a sensible person..."
