The Three Kingdoms Of The North Are Proud And Heroic

Although Zu Zhao had already thought about it in his heart, he didn't expect Chen Xianjun to come for this matter.

Probation was the most important way to obtain the rank in the Han Dynasty, and those who can obtain the qualification of probation must be local people with outstanding moral integrity. Even so, the number of places is limited every year, and the talents nominated by each county have to go through a certain amount of competition.

Zu Zhao knew that he had a great reputation, he was able to be filial to his elders and a corporal of etiquette since he was a child, and he studied poetry and scriptures seriously and diligently, coupled with the family background of the ancestral family, he did not lack the qualifications to participate in the inspection. But the important thing is that he is still young this year, and he is really not qualified compared to other people of virtue and talent in the county. Throughout the history of probation in the past ten years, the candidates admitted are all weak talents, and there has never been a precedent for a 16-year-old boy to make an exception.

Of course, that's not to say there aren't any opportunities. It's just that he never considered entering the official career with Chaju from beginning to end, the three generations of the ancestral family are generals, the people are prosperous, the family is rich, and the power of his family alone is enough to achieve a career, and there is no need to bother more about the election. If you fail to be elected to the central government, it is good to stay in the county and serve as an official and a half, but if you are really elected to the central government by chance, far away from your own sphere of influence, the gains outweigh the losses.

Now that the Han dynasty is in decline, the Yellow Turban Rebellion is about to begin, and the world will soon usher in an era of rising heroes. In troubled times, there is nothing more advantageous than holding actual military power, whether it is for survival or other plans, only by truly mastering a strong army of one's own can we lay the right to speak in this world.

It is precisely for this reason that although the election of officials in the DPRK and the Central Committee is excellent for cultivating political qualifications and accumulating political capital, it is obvious that there will be too many problems at this juncture. Instead of fighting in the temple, it is better to strengthen the power in the rivers and lakes, not to mention that the Yellow Turban Rebellion was originally a great opportunity to make contributions.

"How can he be born late, it is really difficult to be such a promotion of the county monarch. Although there is no explicit age limit for the inspection, there has never been a person under the weak crown in the past and forth, and the younger generation is 16 years old and has not been deeply involved in the world, isn't it a joke? After a quick thought in his mind, Zu Zhao politely excused himself.

"The grandfather is humble again." Chen Xianjun smiled meaningfully, on the surface, it seemed that Zu Zhao was pretending to be modest, but behind the smile, there were many extraneous sounds.

"Zhao'er, I have already told the county gentleman what to say, this time the county monarch is really painstaking, and there are indeed no other outstanding candidates in the county this year. Don't think you're great. The county will nominate you first, and as for whether you can be nominated, it depends on your creation. Zu Ju's tone gradually showed seriousness, and his eyes stared at Zu Zhao solemnly.

Zu Zhao knows that although his grandfather is in his late teens, he is by no means a kind and obedient old man, and it can be said that the ancestral family can develop to this day to become a powerful family, precisely because of the result of his grandfather's unremitting and attentive management. Whether it was worshipping Lu Zhi as a teacher when he was a child, or avoiding suspicion of the party, or marrying with the Gongsun family, it is not difficult to see his grandfather's city government and ambitions. This time, he asked to participate in the inspection of Youbeiping County, obviously hoping that the ancestral family could re-enter the officialdom.

Unfortunately, although my grandfather was scheming, he lacked effective judgment on the general situation of the country.

But even so, he still needs to enlist his grandfather's support, so it is impossible to go against the other at this time. So, he deliberately pretended to be honest and smiled, and did not deliberately answer these words. After all, he is more or less sure, this time the county may not be able to successfully recruit himself, and there are only a handful of people in history who can enter the court as an official with a weak crown, and this probability is not something that can be broken.

"The eldest prince has outstanding morality, and has both civil and military skills, and he is really a rare talent in my Xu Wuxian. Even if you are still young, as long as you have a social heart and can do your best, why not? Chen Xianjun said with a smile.

"I thank Chen Xianjun for being so fond of it." Zu Zhao said with a modest smile.

"Shicai Chen Xianjun told me that this year's county is still based on filial piety and honesty, supplemented by virtuous and square. However, it is not useless to learn and calculate, Liu Taishou has already spread some rumors, and there are just a vacancy in the county this year. Zu Ju said with some mention.

Hearing this, Zu Zhao was completely relieved, it seems that his grandfather's original intention was not to let himself enter the court as an official through inspection. As long as there is the support of his grandfather behind him, it is not difficult to rely on the family strength of his ancestral family to hold a position in the county.

"The filial piety of the eldest prince has spread throughout the county, and filial piety has always been the most favored, I believe that if the ancestor son is famous for filial piety, he will be able to get nine out of ten." Chen Xianjun said decently.

Zu Zhao's filial piety is indeed somewhat famous, but it has not reached the point of becoming a household name. After all, as a child of a family, his family is rich and worry-free, and no matter how diligent he is, he can't let the world experience enough filial piety. Therefore, he knew very well that Chen Xianjun's words were just simple politeness or perfunctory, and he had no intention of taking the county's inspection seriously.

"Late in life, he is shallow in learning, and he is ashamed of his virtue, Yu Xiao is just a skin, let alone honest and self-controlled, which is really unacceptable. The late life thought that the inspection should be the elders to observe the words and deeds before the decision, this time is the county monarch's good intentions, the late life is honored, everything is arranged by the father-in-law, in addition to filial piety, should do their best. Zu Zhao said in a proper manner.

"In this way, it will be decided by Zizheng Gong." Chen Xianjun turned to Zu Zhao and said lightly.

Zu Ju is a strong person, and he would rather do it himself for the future of his grandson and the development of his ancestral family. In the process of chatting with Chen Xianjun earlier, he had some ideas, but he still pretended to think about it for a while.

"If you say that you are virtuous and square, this kid is still qualified, and it is not enough evidence. However, he has studied the scriptures, and once studied under the great Confucian Lu Zigan of the time, and last year he also compiled the annotations of the broken sentences of the Book of Poetry and the Analects of the Two Sages, which can be regarded as a small success. Zu Ju's words are very casual on the surface, but his expression is very praised, but in fact, he is admiring his grandson's scholarship.

In his spare time last year, in order to facilitate the recitation of the Thirteen Confucian Classics, Zu Zhao made some notes on the most familiar poetry and Analects, one is to break the sentence, and the other is to explain the appropriate meaning. In fact, they were recorded directly on these two books, and they were not written independently at all, and they never thought of making them public.

"Oh, really?" Chen Xianjun obviously looked at Zu Zhao and asked with interest.

"Late life is just a vain self-esteem, a mere ugly opinion, how dare you laugh and be generous?" Zu Zhao said.

"Chen Xianjun, if you trust, please make a name for Zhao'er with scriptures." Zu Ju picked up the teaspoon and scooped a spoonful of hot tea, pouring it for Chen Xianjun's tea bowl.

"It's still Zi Zhenggong who understands the ancestral son, so this matter is settled. At the beginning of next month, I will invite the three elders of the county to discuss this matter, and if there is no accident, the official document can be submitted to the county at the end of next month. Chen Xianjun said decisively.

"Please forgive me for being rude, and please think twice. The late students are shallow in their studies, and if they are famous for their studies, I am afraid that they may not be able to be completely sure. Later students may have some experience in clear calculations, and they can't say how outstanding they are, but they are more certain than the scriptures. After some thought, Zu Zhao still said.

"Mingxuan?" Chen Xianjun was a little surprised. Although Zu Ju had already mentioned Ming Shu before, he thought it was just a casual talk. Ming arithmetic is not only complicated and difficult, but also the most unpopular subject in the previous examinations, even if you can be recruited and selected as an official, you can only be an official for a lifetime, and there is no career prospect at all. It's a thankless choice.

"This kid has been able to do arithmetic since he was a child, and it used to take seven or eight people to sort out the family accounts for many days, but the kid only counted for two days and sorted them out clearly, almost the same. Many gentlemen and accounts in the family said that the boy was agile and bright, but he was a gifted genius. Zhao'er, have you figured it out? The first half of Zuju's sentence is to add glory to his grandson, and the second half of the sentence is obviously full of warning. It can be seen that he does not want his grandson to choose a career with no prospects.

"Is that really such a genius?" The first time Chen Xianjun heard that Zu Zhao still had such ability, he was even a little skeptical, thinking that Zu Ju deliberately exaggerated in order to promote his grandson.

As early as the Qin Dynasty, there were ninety-nine multiplication tables, but one was that the ancients did not have many opportunities to learn and Xi, and the other was always dominated by academics such as poetry and etiquette, so naturally it was not so easy to contact arithmetic. What's more, the ninety-nine multiplication table is just basic arithmetic, and multiplication and division alone can't solve all math problems. Zu Zhao knows more or less some algebraic operations such as multivariate equations, and he is naturally superior to others in handling accounts.

Compared with the scriptures, arithmetic does not need to involve so many big truths. Moreover, thousands of years later, the scriptures are still based on the ancient Confucian thought, and it is really impossible to conjure up more new tricks.

In addition, at the moment, what he hopes most is to stay in the county and seek an official position, since the county government has rumored that there is a vacancy in the history of Cao Peng, even if it is not a promising official position, but it is still a certain status and can directly establish a relationship with the county government.

"The study is broad and profound, even if the late students are lucky enough to be selected, they are afraid that they will not be able to convince the public, not to mention that they will answer in front of the county government at that time, and they will be laughed at if they are a little wrong. As long as the foundation is solid and careful, even if there is a mistake, it will not be embarrassing. Zu Zhao said very seriously, on the surface, these words were addressed to Chen Xianjun, but in fact, he was answering his grandfather's words.

Zu Ju pondered for a while, and finally nodded slowly with a frown.
