Chapter 185: Heaven's Pride (Monthly Pass)
Chen Kaizhi stood with his hands behind his back, his innocent face was dull, but his words were like an old man who had experienced the wind and frost.
"In this world, nothing is real, only authority is the most real."
After hearing this, Bao Hu sighed, but nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, this is really a good thing, but you need to remember that it can kill people and save people. It is not a bad thing to be promoted. Look at how many people in the world say fame and fortune are like clouds, but how many people are seeking fame and fortune? I have no expectations, I just hope that you can be someone who can save people."
Chen Kaizhi looked at Bao Hu and thought that Bao Hu had protected him many times, and he also admired Bao Hu's character.
He nodded cautiously and kept his words in his heart.
But at this moment, Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but have some questions. After pondering for a while, he said gently: "Bao Fuzun, some words have been asked by the students. I hope the Fuzun will not blame him."
Bao Hu frowned deeply and glared at him coldly: "If you have something to say, I will blame you for your squeamish look."
Chen Kaizhi couldn't help laughing. He was really nobody else in his temperament. Then he looked at Bao Hu and said in confusion: "Main Master, you are as handsome as a man, but why did you become the Jinling Main Master? Uh... This is a bit contrary to common sense."
Bao Hu's appearance actually made Chen Kaizhi full of hope for this world.
No matter what, a world that can accommodate such honest officials will definitely not be bad.
Chen Kaizhi has seen many people. The magistrate of Zhu County is very envious. Although he has made great achievements, he is aiming to be promoted.
The magistrate of Zheng still sticks to some conscience, but the moral integrity above this bottom line is difficult to guarantee. Anyway, Chen Kaizhi heard that his official voice was very bad. In addition to being flirted with, he also kept a few outdoor rooms and was very close to some merchants and gentry in Xuanwu County. I am afraid there are many indescribable transactions behind it.
Even Wang Tixue hated evil like a grudge, but the Lu family bullied men and women. Although he hated the extreme, he did not dare to face it with sternness. Instead, he wanted Chen Kaizhi to be the first to be the first, which shows that although he maintained his kind heart, he did not have the courage to face a bleak life.
Only this prefect Bao is like a beacon in the long night of eternity. He may do some bad things and may make mistakes. But such a person can have smooth careers, which makes Chen Kaizhi finally see a ray of light.
It's not easy. The world is not always dark, but it has a bright side.
Bao Hu glanced at him and saw Chen Kaizhi's look of anticipation. Although Chen Kaizhi's words sounded a bit unpleasant, he had guessed Chen Kaizhi's thoughts. His eyebrows raised deeply and he said lightly: Do you want to hear the truth or lies?"
Hey, if you ask you a question, are you still showing off?
Chen Kaizhi smiled and said, "Everyone wants to hear it."
"It's just that, this is how I am loved by my superiors."
Well……
Chen Kaizhi was stunned for a moment, looking at the charcoal-black face in front of him, and his old robe, and the rough hands exposed in the robe skirt, his face was already terrible. If he had been accompanied by his expression that he always remained stubborn and seemed to be unwilling to laugh when he saw anyone, Chen Kaizhi felt that Bao Hu's joke was not very funny.
Chen Kaizhi said, "Where is the truth?"
Bao Hu's eyes that always wanted to see through human nature fell darkly. He sighed, with a smile on his face, as if he was self-deprecating.
"In the third year of Tian Shao, I passed the exam in the final B exam and became the first."
Chen Kaizhi was stunned, and he was really shocked, his bright eyes were full of surprise.
The one who stood in front of me was actually a top scholar?
You should know that Da Chen’s top scorer was once every three years, and only a hundred people could pass the exam, and becoming the number one was enough to go down in history.
The future of the top scorer of Da Chen has always been bright. Among them, more than sixteen of the top scorers of Da Chen have been the top scorer for the past century.
In other words, half of the thirty top scholars in the past century have become the leaders of civil servants, and the others are the most timely, the Minister of the Shang Dynasty and the Minister of the Secretariat.
But the top scholar in front of me is only a mere prefect from the third year of Tianshao to now... Oh, I was actually sent to manage Ma Zheng in the past. Ma Zheng is a rough job. Shouldn't the top scholar in the noble top scholar be waiting for promotion in the Hanlin Academy?
Why……
Chen Kaizhi sighed, and I have to say, this world is really dark.
"I forgot to tell you." Bao Hu's eyes looked faint and mocking, and then said, "This examiner, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, is exactly the same year as me, and he is the 37th place in the second grade."
The 37th place in the second class is simply apart from the top scholar, but their situation is very different now.
One is already the right minister and an important official in the court, while the other is just a prefect. Although he is a prefect of Jinling, it is still too disparate.
"Now, what are you thinking after hearing the truth?" Bao Hu stared at Chen Kaizhi, his eyes that were so heart-wrenching that they couldn't turn around, as if he wanted to see through Chen Kaizhi and see clearly.
Chen Kaizhi sighed and said, "Well, you must not be a master of your studies."
Bao Hu didn't blame him, and withdrew his gaze, but said calmly: "Everyone has his own ambitions, and I don't want to be a proposition or role model. It's right not to imitate me. There are thousands of better roads in the world, and this one may not be able to make it."
"No one can get through." Chen Kaizhi shook his head with certainty.
"Hmm?" Bao Hu was slightly disgusted and looked at Chen Kaizhi again.
Chen Kaizhi said seriously: "In this world, there is only one person who can understand it, that is the emperor. The rest of the people are like the emperor. Even if they have great ambitions and compassion for heaven, what can they do if they have great ambitions and compassion for heaven?"
Bao Hu was silent.
After a little more, he thought for a while and said, "When today I am young, when he grows older and takes power, he may become a good emperor."
Chen Kaizhi also thought about it and said, "What if he was not a good emperor?"
Bao Hu suddenly had the urge to tear Chen Kaizhi away. Are you fucking this arguing?
Chen Kaizhi suddenly spread his hands and smiled relaxedly: "Actually, these have nothing to do with students. What students can do is nothing more than stand out in the provincial examination and become a juren. This is the most urgent thing for students now. The temple is still too far away from students. Students are in the world, so they would rather have their eyes lighter."
After Chen Kaizhi said that, his heart felt a little heavy.
Yes, my goal is to pass the provincial examination. If I pass the imperial examination, I will be a juren. Since then, I have become a juren in Dachen. I will be considered as entering the threshold of the privileged class of the Great Chen Dynasty.
It’s not that Chen Kaizhi has too lofty ideals, but... it’s too unrealistic.
After bowing to Bao Hu, Chen Kaizhi turned around and walked slowly in the opposite direction.
Bao Hu stood beside the sedan chair, wearing an old robe, whistled by the north wind, as if grass clips were raised, blowing into his eyes. He couldn't help but wiped his eyes. Looking at Chen Kaizhi who was getting farther and farther away, his face still looked like an iron-faced one.
……………………
But in the Confucian Temple, all the school officials had left, but Zhang Jian's heart was a little confused.
He felt that he was trapped in mud and sand, unable to move his foot, and wanted to move his feet, but mud and sand made him sink tighter.
At this time, I sat down and took a sip of tea, and my heart gradually calmed down. I would not blame Eunuch Zheng. In fact, if I want to blame, I can only blame myself.
Regarding the "Fu of the Goddess of Luo River", whether Chen Kaizhi intentionally or unintentionally, at least this article has been used.
This made him hate this article and the people who wrote it. Therefore, when he heard the invigorating description of Eunuch Zheng, his first reaction was to take this opportunity to give Chen Kai a look.
He naturally knew that Eunuch Zheng was definitely not a good thing, and there must be something behind this matter.
But the reason why he urgently recruited the school officials and ordered someone to escort Chen Kaizhi was also his careful consideration. If he had investigated carefully and then recruited Chen Kaizhi to punish him, it would inevitably give people the impression that a dignified minister had been planning for a long time and wanted to rectify a student.
Instead of doing this, it’s better to do it roughly, showing that you can’t tolerate sand in your eyes!
After the case was approached by Jinling, when he heard this, he was furious and tried to purify his academic style.
In this way, even if there is any hidden truth behind this, he doesn't have to worry. Even if it is wrong, he can put all the blame on Eunuch Zheng.
After all, it was this Eunuch Zheng who misled him. As for Chen Kaizhi, he was punished. It is not important that he died under severe torture. After all, he just did a bad thing with kindness.
I thought a little student was able to get it right, but who had expected that he had all been wrong. This Eunuch Zheng was not only a bastard, but also this little student was much harder to deal with than he thought. An ordinary person had to be at a loss when encountering such a big scene, but Chen Kaizhi was really too calm. How could he be a young man?
In his mind, he was still recalling the details of Chen Kaizhi's words and deeds just now, and he had to admire this person's decisiveness and calmness.
At this moment, someone came outside to report: "Eunuch Zheng asked for a meeting."
"He's here again?" Zhang Jian was not willing to deal with this person any longer, because he felt that this person was simply a lunatic. Fortunately, he was still a eunuch. He didn't learn so many intrigues in the palace.
Moreover, Zhang Jian was unwilling to give people the impression that he was too close to the eunuch.
He originally wanted to order someone to block the enemy, but Chen Kaizhi's contemptuous look was in his mind again. Zhang Jian's eyes sternly, his face darkened, and he suddenly sneered: "Call in."
