In fact, with the power of the Xiao family, if the young master wants to become an official, he can become an official even if he does not take the imperial examination. However, the imperial examination is not only a common way for scholars to get promoted, but also a good way for officials and officials to prove themselves, as long as they are not really dandy. , outstanding family education resources and some connections can often achieve good results in the imperial examination.
When Ji Yuan was rowing away, he naturally heard the words behind him that he wanted to drink tea with so and so. This kind of rhetoric was obviously related to the imperial examination. The young master did not object, and could only say that it was some kind of agreement between the senior officials of the feudal dynasty. Something vulgar.
Of course, these people actually don’t dare to go too far. At most, they can get some guidance to work hard. If they go too far, the emperor’s majesty is no joke. In the history of Dazhen, there were also officials who were sentenced to death for leaking examination questions. of.
‘I can only say Master Yin, your opponents in the imperial examination are as strong as clouds! ’
The awning boat rowed farther and farther, completely out of sight of the big ship.
The sky was completely dark, so Ji Yuan simply raised his energy once more. Often, a heavy stroke of the oar in the water would make the boat go far away, and the wooden oar also appeared to be extremely tough under the protection of the weak magic power. It will break due to this huge force that obviously exceeds the load.
Before midnight, the small boat with a black awning had already passed Zhuangyuan Ferry. There were lights and fires at the pier, restaurants and inns. Not far away, the Tongtian Jiangjiang Temple also had lanterns hanging high and incense burning.
However, on this cold winter night, there were no ferries on the river.
After a while, Ji Yuan rowed the boat to the place where he usually parked in those days. He was slightly relieved. He wondered if Old Chen would be anxious to report to the official because he couldn’t find him these days.
Ji Yuan didn’t care anymore, tied the boat rope on the shore, walked to the lowered bamboo awning on both sides and sealed it, then covered himself with a quilt and fell asleep.
In the early morning of the next day, a familiar shout came from the shore.
“Mr. Ji? Are you Mr. Ji? Mr. Ji”
Ji Yuan actually opened his eyes when he heard footsteps approaching from far away, and he naturally got out of the cabin.
Seeing Ji Yuan come out, the old man on the shore also breathed a sigh of relief.
“Hey, Mr. Ji, where have you been rowing these days? In this cold weather, you just disappeared for so many days without even saying hello. I’m afraid of you…”
Old Chen stopped talking here, but Ji Yuan also knew what he meant, and he held his hand towards Old Chen very apologetically.
“It’s Ji’s fault. I really didn’t think it through. I hope Mr. Chen can forgive me. I haven’t been able to catch fish in the past few days. I met a friend who said that I can catch fish if I row a boat farther away. I also wanted to go boating to enjoy the snow, so I decided to We went together and forgot to leave a message for Mr. Chen.”
Old man Chen shook his head and reached out to point Ji Yuan.
“You’ve been gone for so many days, which scared me, old man, but it’s good to be back, it’s good to be back…”
After complaining for a long time, Old Man Chen finally adjusted his mentality. It was because of luck and getting to know each other that he dared to chatter like this.
At this moment, Old Man Chen also habitually looked at the fish basket near the bow, and sure enough, it was still empty.
“Mr. Ji, you and your friend didn’t catch any fish, did you?”
“Yes, if we didn’t catch anything, everyone would be disappointed and leave!”
“Yes, it’s been really weird recently. People in the village can’t catch any fish. The fish schools don’t show up. At most, they can only catch a few small fish and shrimps. When fishing, they never take the bait. Mr. Ji, don’t you think so? Will it still be like this after spring?”
As the old man spoke, he approached the shore and handed a bunch of lotus leaf bags in his hand to Ji Yuan, which was still steaming.
Ji Yuan’s nose twitched, he happily took the lotus leaf bag and said casually.
“Have you gone to seek help from the Goddess of the River?”
“Please, how could I not ask for it!”
“That’s okay, I think it will be fine soon!”
“Hey, I hope so! Oh, by the way, Mr. Ji would like to drink. If so, can I bring you some local wine in the afternoon?”
Ji Yuan thought about it for a moment, and it seemed that before he finished drinking last time, he was swept away by the old dragon and the boat.
“No, no, no, I still have some wine. I will ask the old man for it when I need it.”
“Okay, Mr. Ji, please take it easy. I’ll leave first, old man.”
“Okay, Mr. Chen, walk slowly!”
Old man Chen relaxed his mind and walked much more briskly. Of course he was a little concerned about Ji Yuan, but he was more afraid of a murder.
When old man Chen walked away, Ji Yuan also untied the boat rope from the shore, picked up the oar, propped it on the shore, and swung the boat away.
The foreign aquatic fairies, especially the overly crowded dragons, will gradually leave, and the disturbed aquatic creatures in the river should soon return to normal.
As usual, I got to the right place and sat on the small stool in the bow. I was fishing with dried worms as bait, untying lotus leaves and eating steamed buns. I had a book I borrowed from Lao Long on my knees. ‘s new book.
This book is called “Yu Lun”, which is not a heavenly book, but it is indeed not an ordinary book, so Ji Yuan can see it clearly, and there seems to be a mystery in the lines of the book. If you are weak in concentration and stare at the book, If you write on it for a long time, you will feel dizzy or even have hallucinations.
This book, like several others Ji Yuan had obtained before, was not signed by the author.
Ji Yuan once thought in a bad way, is it because we are in the world of demons and immortals after all, and those authors are actually a little afraid of writing something that some master and evil demon will not be able to see, so they directly come to discuss Taoism or Just beat them up, that’s why they don’t sign any of them.
“Yu Lun” is not a book on dharma. To be precise, it is a book that helps you understand the “imperial dharma” in dharma. Generally, most of these thick books are miscellaneous books of this kind, such as ” “Heretics” and “Tong Ming Ce”.
The key is that this miscellaneous book is beautiful and interesting!
The so-called Dharma is not passed down lightly. The content of real Dharma formulas is often not so complicated, and most of them are preserved with objects that can convey the spirit through objects. Just consider the other borrowed jade sticks and slips on hand.
However, Ji Yuan believes that these miscellaneous books are full of great knowledge, and some of the wild ideas are worthy of scrutiny. From the basics to the advanced, this “Yu Lun” talks about the author’s understanding of water, fire, wind, and The research on Yu Lei and other methods does not talk about the true method but only about experience and speculation.
According to the proportion of gains and guesses in various imperial methods, Ji Yuan can easily analyze the author’s own behavior and skills, such as Yu Lei, which 80% of the authors do not know how to do. This part of the content Basically it’s all about hearing and assumptions or speculation and discussion.
I flipped through the book while holding a bun in my mouth, and the most exciting part of the article was about the detailed changes in how water can be soft or strong. It coincided with Jiyuan’s own confirmation. This feeling of being so **** made me feel itchy. Ji Yuan was all smiles.
The tip of the fishing rod in his left hand trembled slightly, indicating that the fish float was rising and falling. Ji Yuan stuffed the smaller half of the bun in his mouth with his right hand and looked at where the fish float was.
‘Is this a fish? ’
Looking under the water for a while, the grinning Ji Yuan turned to look at the distance of the official road on the shore. Two scholars carrying book boxes were walking together.
“Brother Yin, it’s all my fault for getting you into trouble. I should have known it was a scam, but I didn’t listen to your advice. Now it’s better. We’ve all paid for our expenses…”
One of the scholars kept sighing.
Although Yin Zhaoxian is a bit depressed, he is much more free and easy than his peers.
“Okay, Brother Shi, stop blaming yourself, just treat this as a lesson learned!”
“That’s what I say, but these slutty people actually dare to complain first. If it weren’t for Brother Yin’s identity as Jizhou Jieyuan, we would have almost been sent to prison. I can’t even swallow my breath just thinking about it!”
Yin Zhaoxian tightened the strap of the bookcase and looked for Shuyuan www. zhaoshuyuan.com rubbed his frozen hands to breathe in the heat and looked at the people beside him.
“Since this is the case, we must obtain fame and clear such cases as officials in the future. Today’s disaster may not be tomorrow’s blessing!”
“It makes sense, Brother Yin is right!”
The two walked and talked, and after a while they finally approached the Tongtian River. During this period, they also talked about whether the remaining money would be enough to take the ferry, and also talked about how many months would it take for the exam to start. How to spend this time and other worries.
Even Yin Zhaoxian is a little frowning and can only take one step at a time.
“There is a boatman over there. Let’s go and ask how far it is to Zhuangyuan Ferry?”
“Okay, just walk over and ask!”
Although the two scholars were tired, they still quickened their pace.
Under the river, there was a Yaksha who was full of doubts. Why didn’t the fisherman lift his pole? Could it be that he was blind and didn’t know he had caught a fish? Or get a bigger one?
His Royal Highness Longzi suddenly ordered him to find a fisherman here, and from time to time he would get a big fish for him to hook. Although Yasha was puzzled, he didn’t ask more questions and just acted according to the order.
Just when he was about to find another fish, the fisherman on the boat on the water suddenly raised his pole.
Yin Zhaoxian and the scholar surnamed Shi had just arrived at the shore, and before they had time to shout at the awning boat, they saw a fisherman on the boat lifting a pole, and a big white bighead carp that looked to be twenty or thirty kilograms was slapped. The water on the river is splashing.
