All Hail Cousin Brother

Zhou Linghuai deeply believed: "Continuing to take the exam will take more time and money, and I don't know if I can pass it next time. Therefore, there are many people who, from elementary school exams to pulsatillas, have nothing but grief and resentment, and donate to officials. It takes a lot of money to manage, let alone whether you can afford it, even if you can afford it, if you take the road of donating to officials, you will basically ruin your future."

Donating organs to the seventh rank has already reached the sky.

Officials of the seventh rank and above have to be evaluated every three years, which is the key to promotion.

The first part of the assessment is the birth.

Jinshi, Jinshi, Shujishi, etc. are the key to the evaluation. Those who donate officials are not eligible to be on the evaluation list, and it is impossible to go further.

But!

After studying hard for ten years in the cold window, everyone has aspirations for the imperial examination. How many people are willing to be trampled under their feet for the rest of their lives and cannot stand up?

Yu Youyao sighed softly: "The most cruel thing is not the scientific examination, but after passing the examination, there is no background, no connections, no channels, what is the way out after entering the court? If at this time, the rich and powerful take the initiative to hand over the olive branch, not only Guaranteed to pass the exam, and after passing the exam, you can still get the support of the other party, and the principle of leaning on a big tree to enjoy the shade, everyone understands."

It is really not easy for ordinary people to confess an official.

Like Aunt Jiang, the family has many acres of farming and studying homes, and has cultivated a fellow Jinshi from Master Jiang, who has already burned high incense in the ancestors.

But if you pass the Jinshi examination and successfully enter the court as an official, everything will be fine?

Look at Master Jiang, you should know how many years you have spent in serving as the master of the sixth grade. Passing the exam is only the first step. After entering the court, you will need more money, contacts, and channel management.

Doesn't a big family like the Yu Mansion also need the money, contacts, and channels of the Xie Mansion?

The key to family background is also revealed.

Zhou Linghuai nodded: "Cheating in scientific examinations and strict enforcement of the rules are unavoidable in any dynasty or generation. Huang Zhiyuan, the chief examiner of this exam, is currently a bachelor of the Imperial Academy. It's him."

Yu Youyao quickly asked: "I heard that the chief executive officer who will take the exam this time is Mr. Tang, the head of the Imperial Academy. Will he be implicated?"

The Tang and Yu families are family friends. I heard that when the grandfather was there, the two families got closer, and the relationship was even closer than that of the Zhen Guohou's mansion.

Also after the grandfather passed away, the grandmother was a widow and rarely went outside, and the relationship with many acquaintances gradually faded away.

Later, Yu Zongzheng and his second uncle successively entered the court as officials, and the two families moved around again.

It's just that grandma doesn't like Master Tang, the academician in charge, that is Miss Tang Wu, Tang Yunxi's father dotes on his concubine and destroys his wife, and doesn't like Mrs. Tang's temperament of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

The two are still far apart.

It's just that the interests of the family relationship are closely related, and the bones are broken and the tendons are even connected. As long as you don't make up your mind to hurt your muscles and bones, it doesn't mean that you can break up the team.

Zhou Linghuai said calmly: "It is inevitable that you will be implicated, but Mrs. Tang's natal father is Zhan Shi in Zhan Shi's mansion, and his official position is not big, but Zhan Shi is in charge of the government affairs of the government, workshops and bureaus, and he has a very important relationship with tutoring the prince. For this point, many people in the court will express their feelings for Mr. Tang, and the Imperial Academy is an important place for the imperial court to select talents. If there is a mistake in the Imperial Academy, it will shake the country, and the courtiers do not want it. If the involvement is too great, Mr. Tang will most likely be able to retreat unscathed, but removal from office is indispensable."

Yu Youyao's eyes moved slightly: "Just dismissed from office, the family will not be implicated. Mrs. Tang's natal family has a wide range of people, and Mr. Tang still has a chance to recover."

Whether Mr. Tang can recover,

It's all tied to Mrs. Tang's natal family. As a result, Mrs. Tang's status in the Tang family will also increase.

Mrs. Tang is a person who can fight big battles silently, she will never let this opportunity go, so there should be an explanation for spoiling concubines and destroying wives.

No matter how favored a concubine is, can it be as important as Mr. Tang's future?

It's really a good reincarnation.

Zhou Linghuai smiled: "That's right."

After hearing this, Yu Youyao knew about the calamity of fraud, and it would not be able to reach the Yu Mansion: "When will Brother Fang be released from the prison? It has been verified that the fraud has nothing to do with him, and will it affect his future?"

Zhou Linghuai shook his head: "His ranking is not high, and his classics and policy questions are also well-qualified. After a candidate like him enters the prison, as long as he finds out his interpersonal contacts after entering Beijing and confirms that he is not suspected, Basically, you will not suffer too much, there will definitely be forced confessions, but torture will not happen, and when the dust settles on this matter, the imperial court will definitely re-open the department to get an official."

Yu Youyao breathed a sigh of relief, and understood what she said, her eyes widened as she implied the meaning behind her words: "You mean, the people who are at the top of the ranking almost have to be tortured? Isn't the son of Song..."

Zhou Linghuai raised his eyebrows, and Yu Youyao consciously swallowed the words behind him.

She suddenly mentioned Song Mingzhao, but she just said it casually, without any other meaning, but her cousin obviously didn't like her mentioning Song Mingzhao, so she just didn't mention it.

Zhou Linghuai's eyes were slightly deep: "Yoyao——"

"Huh?" Yu Youyao looked suspiciously at her cousin,

The little girl's eyes were innocent and bright, like a pool of lake water, shimmering through them, Zhou Linghuai's expression softened before he knew it, but his tone was slightly calm: "I'm not a magnanimous person."

Song Mingzhao's drunkard's intentions were not in drinking, but his coveting of Yu Youyao made him feel like a stick in his throat.

Yu Youyao was stunned when she heard that, what does cousin mean by this?

What does Ming Zhao have to do with his cousin?

The little girl blinked her eyes lightly and looked at him puzzled, Zhou Linghuai laughed dumbly: "It's fine if you don't understand, but it's not such an important person thing."

Now Yu Youyao understood, and nodded again and again: "The original is also an irrelevant person, so don't worry about it."

Zhou Linghuai smiled again, and looked up at the little girl. The fringe buyao he is wearing today was carved by him some time ago when he had nothing to do. He is proficient in carving, and it is easy to carve a jade hairpin, but the craft of tassel jewelry is very cumbersome. , he thought Yu Youyao looked good wearing tassels, so he specially found a book to learn how to do it, which took a lot of effort.

Now it seems that it is worthwhile for the little girl to wear the jewelry he made by himself.

The whole body is white and white jade hairpins, carved into a cluster of jade hairpins. The hairpins are placed on the side of the little girl's temples. The tassel pendants are of different lengths and arranged in a patchwork pattern. They fall from the stamens and reach the ears. Under the tassels, it swayed lightly, making the little girl look delicate and elegant.

Yu Youyao raised her chin: "Cousin, is this the dead end you arranged for Uncle Ningyuan's mansion?"

If cheating in the scientific examination was involved, the emperor could not protect him.

Zhou Linghuai smiled, "It's just Xiang Zhuang's sword dance."

Yu Youyao's eyes widened. Cousin meant that even though he aimed at Ning Yuanbo, he actually had other intentions?
