    Chapter 219

    A group of people raised their heads to look up their names, and suddenly a surprised voice sounded, "Brother Zicheng, you are the county bureau chief, you are a scholar."

    After passing the county examination, he is a child, and then there is the government examination, and he is a scholar after passing the examination.

    The county chief has the privilege of being a scholar directly. This is the first step in the imperial examination.

    Mu Zicheng's heart trembled, and he looked up at the top name. Sure enough, mu Zicheng's three characters came into view.

    He was quickly struck by the surprise and couldn't help giggling.

    Great, he lived up to his family's expectations and those days and nights of hard work were not in vain.

    When the people around heard this, they cast envious glances.

    There were also many people crowding over to chat with him, flattering, and having many good things to say.

    In the face of such compliments, mu Zicheng is not in the air, and his mind is very calm.

    He just passed a county exam, and the county exam questions are not difficult.

    Even if there is no need for the government exam, the next thing waiting for him will be the township exam, the general exam, and the palace exam.

    Even if all the way is smooth and smooth, and the luck is against the sky and the champion of high school, it is only from the sixth rank.

    But the younger sister in the family is already a high-ranking third-rank official, and the distance is not too big.

    With such a jewel in front of him, he couldn't be proud at all.

    What's more, he has a clear understanding of himself. He is not a genius, nor a child prodigy, but a talented person who has achieved what he is today through hard work and a famous teacher.

    The literary style in the Xiliang area is not strong, and it is revealed that he has not produced a serious jinshi in all these years.

    Compared with the students in Jiangnan City, he has no advantage and can only rely on diligence to make up for his clumsiness.

    In the county head mansion, Erye Mu and his wife were as anxious as ants on a hot pot. The waiting process was too long, making people extremely anxious.

    Ji Cheng sat blankly, fingering her sleeves unconsciously, revealing her nervousness.

    Suddenly, the servants rushed over, "Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs., the eldest young master has been hit, and he is the county case chief."

    Everyone was overjoyed, and Second Master Mu was even more excited, "Okay, give a reward to the person who came to report, and give more money to happy."

    "All the servants in the mansion will reward you with monthly money for one month."

    Ji Cheng stood up abruptly, "Daddy, did I hear it right?"

    Mrs. Mu squinted her eyes, "No, no, I have already said that the three children in my family are all dragons and phoenixes, and Qing'er is so good, and the elder brother of the same mother will not be too bad."

    Everyone was very happy, a sea of ​​jubilation, Mu family members came to the door one after another to congratulate him.

    Mu Wanqing knew the good news at the first time. Except for Mu Zicheng, the children of the other nine clans were on the list, and none of them failed.

    Facts have proved that Fang Jiazhu, who is in charge of taking the imperial examinations, is genuine and has achieved remarkable results.

    When the officials came to congratulate Xi, they invariably expressed their request for a place in the Mu's Academy.

    The quality of education in Mu's Academy is not generally high, and it is a bit better than the county school.

    Since Mu Wanqing took office, she has specially allocated funds to the county schools, not only repairing the dilapidated school buildings, but also poaching a group of talents from the capital to become teachers.

    However, the educational foundation of Xiliang is too weak, and the students' foundation is not solid. This is not a temporary achievement, and it has to be taught from scratch.

    Therefore, there is not a period of four or five years that cannot produce results.

    And Mu's College has Fang's father and son, Fang's head is the second place, and Fang's eldest and youngest are also second-rank jinshi, and all his thoughts are spent on the students of the academy, Mu Wanqing has adopted a devil-like examination system, under high pressure Everyone grows up fast.

    Mu Wanqing did not go home directly after get off work, but went to the academy.

    The Fang family lived in the dormitory building of the academy, and she went directly to the door.

    Patriarch Fang was in a particularly good mood, with a wide-eyed smile, "Congratulations to the county lord for getting what he wanted, all the children in the clan have grown up, don't worry, Zicheng is a talented person, I suppressed him for a year not to let him participate in the imperial examination last year, just to let He learned more solidly and was a blockbuster."

    "With Zicheng's knowledge, if you don't miss it, a jinshi can do it, but it's almost impossible to enter the top three."

    He had a very comfortable life in the academy, he did not worry about eating and drinking, the students respected him, and he became more and more fat.

    This Mu's Academy was built by Mu Wanqing, and it took a lot of hard work, and now it's time to pay back.

    After learning the basic knowledge, each student chooses the most suitable path according to their own preferences and specialties. Those who want to take the imperial examinations should focus on studying the Four Books and Five Classics, Poetry, Fu, Strategy and Theory.

    Those who want to be businessmen, executives, and researchers will all arrange corresponding teaching, and strive for everyone to become a qualified social animal.

    "As long as you can enter the palace exam, you will be considered a winner in life. It doesn't matter who you are in." Mu Wanqing gave a brocade box, "You have been bothering for the past two years, this is a gift from me, open it and see if you like it. ?"

    "It's too polite..." Fang's family head believed that she would not treat her own people badly.

    However, when he saw what was in the box, he was stunned.

    Seeing that his expression was wrong, his children were a little nervous, "Father, father, are you okay?"

    Patriarch Fang bowed to the end with tears in his eyes, his lips trembling, "Please accept me."

    Mu Wanqing gave her a hand, "This is what you deserve. You are conscientious in cultivating talents for me, and I will give you the freedom of the whole family. Why should I say thank you?"

    Young Master Fang had the quickest response, "County Lord, have you helped us get out of our sins?" This is more difficult than going to the sky.

    The Fang family members all looked at Mu Wanqing, nervous and uneasy.

    Mu Wanqing nodded slightly and bowed her hands in the direction of the capital, "Your Majesty Shengming, forgive your crimes. From today onwards, you are no longer exiles. You can return to the capital anytime you want."

    The Fang family couldn't help crying with joy, great, they are finally good people.

    This was the dream of the Fang family, and Mu Wanqing easily helped them solve it.

    Mu Nannan, who was on the side, bit her lip lightly, hesitated for a while, and struggled to ask, "Sister Wanqing, then..."

    She has married the third young master of the Fang family. She has a soft temperament and a harmonious husband and wife. She is very valued by her parents-in-law.

    Mu Wanqing could see through her thoughts at a glance, "You are also Fang's family, and you are among the amnesty, and your children will be able to take the imperial examinations."

    Mu Nannan's heart that was hanging in the air came to the ground, and her eyes were red, tears streaming down her face, "Thank you, thank you so much, sister Wanqing, your kindness will never be forgotten in my life."

    She has been sheltered by Mu Wanqing a lot along the way, and even this marriage came because of Mu Wanqing.

    Her parents-in-law took care of her, and her husband was considerate. It was thanks to Mu Wanqing that she had a good day today.

    "Let's live a good life." Mu Wanqing has good feelings for Mu Nannan. Even if she married into the Fang family, she still didn't give up her job, and she still took care of her parents' children and nephews. .

    This is also a skill.

    After Mu Wanqing left, Fang Sanshao asked happily, "Father, when will we return to the capital?"

    "What capital are you going back to?" The head of Fang's family gave him an angry look, "If you don't go back, where is the county head of Qingping, I will be where I am, and I will follow her."

    A character like Mu Wanqing is destined to be famous in history, isn't it bad to hug her thigh?

    The Fang family looked at each other. Although they were not natives of the capital, they had settled in the capital since the generation of the head of the Fang family, and their children were all born and raised in the capital.

    "Then you don't want to reply?"

    Patriarch Fang was silent, is revival a simple sentence? Their Fang family's connections have been cut off, and it's easier said than done to return to officialdom.

    "The situation is not clear now. I plan to accompany Mu Dashao when he goes to the capital to take the exam and go back with him to have a look, and then make plans."

    Everyone thinks about it, too, the court is precarious, thieves are rampant, and the outside is chaotic, it is too unsafe.

    It is better to stay in Xiliang temporarily.

    Although Fang Dashao misses the scenery of the past, the calm and stable days are also precious now.

    "Then let's buy a house first. The child is getting older and needs a separate room."

    Although the academy dormitory is good, it has some restrictions and is not as comfortable as its own house.

    Fang Patriarch calculated the money. Several members of the family are working. The usual welfare, the red envelope at the end of the year, and the money saved is enough to buy a house. "Okay, let the Mu family help pay attention to it."

    He specially reminded, "By the way, don't reveal the slightest bit of wind, lest those clansmen be out of balance and do extreme things."

    He was the one who got the honor. Other tribes were not so lucky.

    Everyone froze in their hearts, "Yes."

    Patriarch Fang knew too well how miserable the prisoners were in exile. If Mu Wanqing hadn't extended a helping hand, they still didn't know if they would have survived.

    "We have a better life, so we should help those people with good character, and consider it as a virtue. As for those with bad character, don't pay attention."

    "Yes."

    When Mu Wanqing returned home, seeing her family members were beaming, she said a few funny words with a smile, and made fun of her elder brother.

    Mu Zicheng blushed embarrassedly, but his eyes were shining.

    Mrs. Mu wanted to hold a big celebration feast, but she was held down by Mu Wanqing, and it would not be too late to hold the wine after the township test.

    She is now a big tree and attracts the wind, and don't know how many eyes are staring at her.

    Mu Zicheng also means this. Every move of the Mu family attracts attention. It's not good to be too high-profile.

    It's just a talent, nothing more.

    "Sister, do you think I'm going to continue taking the government exam?"

    He is quite contradictory, go ahead, there are too many things at hand. Don't go, want to accumulate some experience in the examination room.

    "If you want to take part, go, and leave the matter at hand to the second brother. You can prepare for the exam with peace of mind." Mu Wanqing looked at Mu Ziang, "Second brother, you can work harder."

    Mu Ziang's face is green. He is already a military officer. In addition to training every day, he has to run around and occasionally help with some family business.

    "I'm really tired."

    Mu Wanqing smiled and said, "I'll give you a telescope."

    The glass mirrors are all out, is the telescope still far away?

    She fiddled with the binoculars, but they were only used by middle and senior generals in the army. These were military supplies and were strictly controlled.

    mu Zi'ang has long been greedy, and when he heard this, he was as excited as chicken blood.

    "I'm not tired, I can work for another five hundred years."

    Crowd: ...

    A guard hurried in, "County Lord, a group of students are making trouble at the entrance of the examination room."

    Mu Wanqing's brows furrowed, "What's the trouble?" How long has it been since the trouble started?

    "It's not fair to say that the examination room is fraudulent..." The guard looked embarrassed and hesitated.

    As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience was shocked. Fraud in the imperial examinations has always been a serious crime of beheading.

    The problem is that mu Zicheng participated in the county examination this time, and he would also be involved, so he couldn't be in a hurry.

    Numerous thoughts flashed through Mu Wanqing's mind, "What else did they say?"

    The guard glanced at her cautiously, "Directly pointing out that someone leaked the exam questions in advance, so... certain families are all on the list."

    The words were vague, but they pointed the finger at Mu Wanqing and the Mu clan.

    Mu Zicheng's face turned pale, "ridiculous, I got it by myself."

    Second Master Mu was very angry, "These people are so unconscionable. They have received so much favor from Qing'er, yet they actually repay their revenge."

    Mrs. Mu Er was also very angry, "Qing'er has always been private and public, how can they slander Qing'er's reputation with such empty words?"

    Ji Cheng felt a little chilled, so he took Mu Wanqing's arm to comfort him, "Sister, don't be sad, the pure and the turbid, the people all know that you are a good official."

    "How could I feel sorry for a bunch of idiots? Besides, I'm not a gold ingot, so how can I be loved by everyone?" Mu Wanqing's efforts in economic construction have benefited the people along the way, but she has also offended many people.

    The original interest groups hated her to death.

    The rise of the Mu family has blocked the way of many people.

    The officials in Xiliang didn't say anything, but they were not necessarily convinced. Some are pedantic and feel ashamed of being under a woman.

    Her eyes were slightly cold, "Go check it out, who is the ambassador? Who is the organizer?"

    The author says:
