Chapter 141
Chapter 141
It’s not that Ji Yuan was in a hurry to get a spot, but he calculated the time.
After the new year, he will definitely still be involved in the breeding of fine varieties, and he will still be unable to leave.
After all the calculations, it’s only the Chinese New Year period.
However, even though he doesn't celebrate the New Year, the people in Wuxin Prefecture definitely do.
So we have to wait until the second day of the Chinese New Year to set off.
Today is December 26th, so we will set off in six days.
After today's "conference", the Ning'an Prefecture government office should also be closed for the holiday.
I won’t return to official business until the fifth day of the New Year.
After being busy for a whole year, Ji Yuan naturally would not let everyone stay to work overtime.
As long as the staff is arranged properly, others can rest when they need to.
The supplies from General Zhang were also delivered in advance.
The entire Ning'an Prefecture gradually entered a "holiday" atmosphere.
Even the road construction work was temporarily stopped.
After being busy for so long, it's time to take a break.
Lord Ye from the provincial capital has even returned to Dianzhou City and said he will come back after February.
That's understandable.
Lord Ye has been out for a year. Everyone has a rest in the first month of the year, and there are various lively Buddhist festivals in the local area in February. Lord Ye will definitely want to join in the fun.
Now that the two roads are being built smoothly, the era is also correct.
Lord Ye needs to rest, Ji Yuan thought, let Lord Cheng rest as well.
On the afternoon of December 26, the officials left the yamen happily, ready to enjoy their holiday.
Ji Yuan and Cheng Yisan were discussing this matter.
Cheng Yishan shook her head: "My father is already designing other paths."
Other roads?
Cheng Yishan continued: "Well, let him be busy for a while, so he won't have any random thoughts."
Lord Cheng is still worried.
You have to keep yourself busy so that you don't have any random thoughts.
But Ji Yuan was actually confused.
What exactly did Mr. Cheng go through in prison?
You know, he had experienced the destruction of his family and had gone through such turmoil, so why would he be so scared?
Now Madam Cheng accompanies Lord Cheng, riding in a bullock cart, traveling around Ning'an Prefecture. Regardless of whether the roads and bridges are repaired or not, Lord Cheng is willing to design them.
That's a good thing.
The road leading to the outside has been repaired, and the road inside also needs to be repaired.
What Lord Cheng has done will not be in vain.
After Ji Yuan finished speaking, Cheng Yishan paused and said sincerely, "Thank you."
The era made their family seem to have some value.
Life isn't so hard anymore.
Ji Yuan shook his head: "I am telling the truth."
Yes, Ji Zhuangyuan never bothered to lie.
Everyone else left, even Chai Feng went home, and the two of them were walking in the government office. The atmosphere seemed a little different.
Ji Yuan looked at Cheng Yishan and asked, "Do you have anything to say?"
Cheng Yishan hummed, raised her head and said, "How many places can we get this time?"
As mentioned before, the number of admissions is different in each place.
It depends on their respective economic population and even academic style.
Like Zhengrong County, there were only a few vacancies at the beginning.
As the local county school gets better and better, the number of places has gradually increased, and now there seem to be twenty places.
According to Cheng Yisan's estimation, the number of places in Ning'an Prefecture's county schools will fluctuate greatly.
In terms of population, Ning'an Prefecture has a similar population to Zhennan Pass. Zhennan Pass now has twelve places for the county examination, and Ning'an Prefecture should be the same.
But the official school in Zhennan Pass has been open for a long time. Although the results are average, it has been open long enough and has the same benefits.
Not to mention, the principal of Zhennan Pass Official School is a serious court official, which is also a plus.
Here, she is deducting points.
After thinking it over, Cheng Yisan was still nervous.
So I wanted to ask so I can have a better idea.
In fact, Cheng Yisan had another idea, but it was hard to say.
Ji Yuan said: "It should be around fifteen."
After that, Ji Yuan brought up another matter: "Recently, the official school is also on winter vacation. Do you have any free time?"
idle?
I think there should be.
Cheng Yishan nodded, and then heard Ji Yuan say, "There are several official schools near Ning'an Prefecture. Do you want to go and have a look?"
Before Ji Yuan finished speaking, Cheng Yisan nodded even faster this time.
Cheng Yishan obviously understood what he meant and immediately said, "Okay, I'll pack my luggage and leave right away."
This was even what Cheng Yisan was thinking.
She is very knowledgeable, but she has never been to an official school.
After all, when she was in school, she just studied at home. This was her shortcoming, but not her fault.
If there is a chance, just make up for it.
Now is a great opportunity.
It would be fine if the current provincial school had just been established.
There will definitely be more questions to follow.
She then said that the county examination was about to begin and she also wanted to learn from the experience.
In modern terms, it means the need for communication and learning.
After all, holding an exam is not an easy task.
Cheng Yisan proposed to try the county exam this year, and this was also a consideration.
But before she could say anything, Ji Zhuangyuan spoke.
"The government schools in various places basically have people only after the fifth day of the first lunar month."
Ji Yuan said: "There are five official schools in Zhennan Pass, nine in Changyan County, and six in Yonglin County. You can go to these places to see them."
In theory, the family members of criminal officials are not allowed to leave Ning'an Prefecture.
But if the local officials give special approval, then that’s fine.
Lord Cheng is still building roads in these places, and I think these places will not refuse.
Even for the sake of Ning'anzhou, nothing will happen.
Ji Yuan said: "I will go to Wuxin City in Wuxin Prefecture this time and bring back the situation of their prefecture school."
"Don't worry, even though it's the first exam, there won't be any problems."
Since Cheng Yisan proposed to take the county examination, she was also well prepared.
Now that these opportunities have been added up, I am even less worried.
The two talked along the way, and Ji Yuan took Cheng Yisan home.
Speaking of which, Cheng Yisan’s current home is very close to Guantian. Every time Cheng Yisan comes back in the past few months, she can see Ji Yuan.
Ji Zhuangyuan is indeed a very different person.
When he arrived at Cheng Yisan's house, Ji Yuan saw that there were two cows in the yard.
There was obviously a cow next to the cart, used to pull the cart.
There is no need to mention the other cow, it is Xiao Huang.
Ji Yuan often comes to see Xiao Huang, but this is the first time he finds that it only eats and does no work at the Cheng family?
Cheng Yishan waved her hands quickly: "Still working."
The work is relatively light.
"This is your cow, it's different."
She had heard from her uncle in a letter about the relationship between Ji Yuan and Xiao Huang, and she actually felt a little reluctant to use it.
So when my father designed the road maps in Ning'an Prefecture, they used to rent ox carts.
She worked in a government school, and her father was building roads, so they had some money.
Ji Yuan took a deep breath and patted Xiao Huang's head: "I didn't ask you to come here to enjoy yourself."
It’s definitely not good to be too tired.
But it’s not meant to be raised as a mascot.
But after saying that, Ji Yuan himself laughed and said, "Forget it, this is fine. This is Xiao Huang."
The two were standing next to Xiao Huang and chatting when they saw Cheng Yisan's younger brother poking his head over.
Cheng Yihuai was still holding a book in his hands.
But everyone knew that as long as the Cheng family's crime still existed, no matter how well he studied, he would not be able to take the imperial examination.
Ji Yuan looked at the Cheng couple in the room, and then at Cheng Yisan.
He did not promise, but he had already made a decision in his heart.
It’s just hard to say it out loud, you can only talk about it after it’s done.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Yishan seemed to know and shook her head and said, "The person at the top must be sentenced, and he has offended more than one family."
“It is extremely difficult to overturn the verdict.”
Cheng Yisan is such a smart person. She must have thought about this matter over and over again on her way here and during the days and nights she spent in Ning'an Prefecture.
She said so, which shows how difficult it is.
Ji Yuan seemed to be thinking about something.
In the evening, Ji Yuan simply invited Cheng's family to have dinner.
However, today's staple food is the freshly cooked red bean rice.
When Cheng Yishan was serving the rice, she almost couldn't hold it steady, so Ji Yuan took it.
The aunt who was cooking also said: "The red beans this year are growing exceptionally well and are very sweet."
Cheng Yisan's hand paused.
Ji Yuan just smiled and agreed, "It's really good."
After dinner, Ji Yuan took Cheng Yihuai to read for a while.
When they were about to go home, Ji Yuan said, "I know what you are worried about."
“These are nothing to us.”
Cheng Yisan never thought of hiding it.
Anyone who is around Ji Zhuangyuan can be seen through.
Cheng Yishan did not evade the question and said, "I cannot be a wife or concubine because of my status. I can only be a concubine."
Without waiting for Ji Yuan to speak, Cheng Yishan continued: "You will definitely not humiliate me like this."
"Then your choice is to help my family overturn the case."
Cheng Yishan smiled bitterly, took a step forward and said, "Impossible."
"Absolutely impossible."
"Why are you so sure?"
Ji Yuan said slowly: "Unless a certain minister wronged you."
Cheng Yishan looked directly into Ji Yuan's eyes: "You guessed right."
That's the one.
The tallest one.
Cheng Yisan wanted to take revenge, but didn't know how.
She also wanted to revive the family, but not to mention that she was a woman, just looking at that person's identity, who could do anything to him.
And that person was even called a wise ruler by many people.
That’s right, it’s the emperor.
Cheng Yishan said directly: "My father used to be the director of the Ministry of Works, you know this."
"He was sent to build the emperor's palace, and that's when the trouble came."
"My father would never embezzle, and that person knows it too."
Cheng Yisan simply told everything she knew.
It would be better to put an end to this matter.
Neither of them is a wimp.
Cheng Yisan even believed that with Ji Zhuangyuan's ability, he might really be able to help his family overturn the verdict.
But what about time? How much of the other person's time will she waste?
Why should she let the other party bear the injustice of her family?
Ji Yuan sorted out the news.
At the end of the 38th year of Huayuan, there was a heavy snowfall in the capital, and the newly built houses on the outskirts of the city collapsed.
Ji Yuan was there when this happened.
But until he left in the 39th year of the AD, the matter had not been concluded.
In the middle of the thirty-ninth year, Lord Cheng, who had always been treated coldly, was assigned a new task to go to the palace for the emperor to practice.
Everyone thought that Lord Cheng would make amends, but they didn't expect a bigger case to happen.
The Emperor asked Lord Cheng to repair it because he discovered Lord Cheng's ability in the case of a house collapse in the suburbs of Beijing.
I saw that he was very familiar with the materials, had excellent aesthetic taste, and his construction skills were first-class.
So let him go to the practice palace.
But the palace was strange. Lord Cheng would be away for several months and could not go home for a single moment.
When something happened again, Lord Cheng was directly detained and interrogated. When he came out, he was crazy and blind.
Until now, Lord Cheng's eyes are still blurry, and he can only see a little bit occasionally.
Most of the time, you still can't see anything.
"Only that person and his close confidant know what happened in the palace," Cheng Yishan said. "If we want to overturn this case, we can only wait until the other party is dead."
Cheng Yishan spoke calmly, as if the person she was talking about was not the emperor, but a real enemy.
The other party is indeed a real enemy.
But if we wait until the other party dies to overturn the verdict, the humiliation will only deepen.
Cheng Yisan had no choice.
She could only hold on to everything.
I can only try my best to survive here.
Except for the era.
The era cannot be caught.
He should have gone further.
Cheng Yishan even said sincerely: "I know you and I understand you."
"The further you go, the more people you can save."
"If my family hinders you from helping more people, my family will be the sinners of the world."
The era is good, too good.
“Go do more.”
"Don't let this tragedy happen again in my family."
Ji Yuan listened and suddenly laughed, but his laugh was helpless: "Great sage, be kind."
Cheng Yisan was shocked.
Is this a description of her?!
Below this sentence is, the public candle shines impartially.
Does that mean she is too selfless?!
Ji Yuan was obviously teasing her, and then waved his hand at Cheng Yishan: "Wait."
What are you waiting for?
Cheng Yishan looked at Ji Yuan's back, and Xiao Huang also came over at this time, and came over intimately: "What does he mean."
Xiao Huang didn't understand and could only nod his head.
In the next few days, this conversation seemed to have disappeared.
Ji Yuan just found some good medicine and asked the Cheng couple to take care of their health, and then take Cheng Yihuai to study when he had time.
When I have time again, I will go to see Guantian with Cheng Yisan.
The Champa rice seedlings have emerged and can be planted soon.
Unfortunately, Ji Yuan was going to Wuxin City soon, so Liu Tongzhi had to take care of the land.
Ji Yuan set out for Wuxin City.
Cheng Yisan is also going to set off.
Both of them are busy with the local official schools.
The local students couldn't help but look forward to it.
Imperial examination.
The legendary imperial examination.
They really wanted to participate.
Ji Yuan was still accompanied by Wu Renhao and Chai Feng, as well as four minor officials.
Because it was New Year's Day, there were not many people on the road. I rode on horseback and arrived at Wuxin City on the twelfth day of the first lunar month.
Looking at the scene in Wuxin City, Chai Feng whispered, "Don't people say Wuxin City is very lively? Isn't it better than our Ning'an Prefecture?"
Chai Feng had lowered his voice, but the vendors around him still heard it.
The vendor was actually acting as if he was pricked by a needle and made sarcastic remarks.
"Ning'an Prefecture? The prefecture that hasn't paid taxes for more than fifty years?"
"If our Wuxin City didn't pay taxes, we could still be so rich!"
The vendor was obviously getting angrier as he spoke.
The vendor next to him actually had the same expression.
When Ji Yuan saw this, he felt something was not good.
It seems that they, Ning'an Prefecture, are hated because they are too rich?
I'm afraid there will be obstacles when we talk about official education this time.
