Chapter 49 49 Go to the county

"Sir, let me go home and say that we can go to the county house as soon as possible to register and participate in this year's county examination."

Wei Guangde took the teacup and tried the water temperature. It was just right, so he took a sip before saying to Mr. Wei.

"County Examination?"

Dad Wei repeated in surprise.

The eldest son Wei Wencai also studied for several years. He was able to take the county exam after two more years, but his son stopped studying.

Mr. Wei has always been looking forward to his son taking the imperial examination and going all the way to high school. It doesn’t matter whether he is the first place or not, as long as he is on the list, he will be successful.

Mr. Wei’s requirements are really not high.

If the boss can read it, it doesn’t matter whether the second brother can study. If he doesn’t study well, he will come back to his martial arts position. He won’t be hungry anyway.

However, when the results were about to be seen, the boss went home.

Regarding the second son, Mr. Wei felt that he would wait two years before he would take the county examination. His current mentality is that he was both expecting and worried. He hoped that his son would be able to take the title of the winner, and he was worried that he would repeat the mistakes of the boss.

So, I suddenly heard my second son say that he went to the county for an exam, and I felt a little surprised.

"Mr. Sun said, let you register for the county examination?"

Mr. Wei felt that it was not safe, and was afraid that he had heard it wrongly, so he asked seriously again.

"Yes, Mr. said that you can't register at the county yamen court after tomorrow. If you want to participate in this county examination, you must go over and register your name in the next two days. Mr. will also agree to his friend to change the bail certificate to my name."

Wei Guangde also finished speaking in one breath. As for the position of replacing Qin Jingchuan, he knew the other four classmates. After all, more than ten of them were taught by their husbands over the past year, and then they would just fill in their names in the ceremony room.

I would like to ask his friends at the county school to deal with the information about the other classmates.

Wei Guangde only knew that his friend was named Gao Xiang, who was a student from the county school, and only a student of the school can protect the boy.

Master Sun was just a student who was enhancing the county, and he could not directly protect the boy. He had to be a student.

In the past, Master Sun valued this identity more, but now he has already seen the imperial examinations, so he naturally no longer cared about this title.

"It's only two days."

Mr. Wei only noticed the key point of time. If he couldn't go to the county government to register his name in the past two days, his son would not be able to participate in this county examination. This is the most important thing.

"Does Mr. Sun say anything else?"

Dad Wei continued to ask.

"No, I just asked me to go to the county government office to register my name. I know all the classmates who protect each other. Just fill in the name directly. I also know the guarantor. It is Mr. Gao Xiang, a student of the county school. "

Wei Guangde replied.

"Okay, you go to the backyard now and say to your mother, I'll ask someone to get a cart. Today we will go to the county to get it done."

As he said that, Dad Wei couldn't sit still, so he got up and urged Wei Guangde to go to the backyard. He had quickly left the gate and asked someone to take a car.

At the end of Shen Shi, that is, at about five o'clock in the afternoon in the later generations, a carriage swayed to Pengze County. However, the carriage did not enter the city directly, but turned at a fork in front of the city gate and drove towards the dock.

Naturally, the carriage would not go to the dock, but stopped in front of the Qianhu Office between the county town and the dock. Then Wei Guangde jumped out of the car first, and then Mr. Wei and Wu got off.

The carriage left the Benshan Fort in the morning, and all the family affairs were left to Wei Wencai and Wu Dong. Wei’s father and Wei Wu both followed Wei Guangde to the county.

As for why I didn’t go directly to the city, it was naturally because of time.

At this time, when you run to the county government office, you may not be able to see the books and clerical books in the courtroom.

As for the reason, it is actually simple, because the county government office is honest, there is really not much to do, and preparing for the county examination is their main job of the year.

However, in the past, at this time, there were no students who had already signed up. Students who were going to take this county examination had already signed up. How could they delay until the last moment?

This is also the reason. Mr. Wei asked the carriage to go to Qianhu House first, take a night off, and then enter the county town to register tomorrow morning.

Wu Zhankui was surprised at the sudden arrival of his sister and brother-in-law, and then was amazed after knowing the purpose of his arrival.

"Not bad, Guangde has made great progress. Take a good exam. I will live at my uncle's house two days before the exam. If I am afraid that the thousand households will be inconvenient, my uncle has a small courtyard in the city. You can live there, not far from the county government office, just wait for the exam."

Wu Zhankui knew that Wei Guangde had come to participate in the county examination at such a young age. He was very happy and took Wei Guangde's little hand and smiled.

Seeing Wei Guangde coming to the county to register for the county examination, Wu Zhankui naturally reminded him of his son Wu Dong. He was the same three years ago. He was so energetic that he ran to the county government office to sign up for the county examination, and then passed the county examination and the prefecture examination in succession until the Nanchang Academy failed.

To be honest, in Wu Zhankui's opinion at that time, it was a pity that he didn't have many sons, otherwise he would really want to continue to let Wu Dong participate in the imperial examination.

What a pity, who can I blame?

Born in a military family, without brothers, he could only be a military family for the rest of his life, waiting to take over his rank, ascend to his post, and continue to be the Thousand Family of the ancestral family.

Wei Guangde was undoubtedly lucky. He did not need to take up the military position and could participate in the imperial examination as Yu Ding, without any more scruples.

After resting at my uncle's house for a night, my uncle and aunt arranged a sumptuous dinner to entertain my brother-in-law's family.

As for why Wu Dong didn't come back with him, it was actually very simple. Because Bengshan Fort was too close to the county town, Wu Dong got home after riding a horse for half a day. In fact, he had to go home four or five times a month.

There are now five horses in the stables of Bengshan Fort, two of which are from Baihu Houses, three of which are from Qianhu Houses, namely Wu Dong's horse, and two of which are from his two followers' mounts.

Early the next morning, Wu Zhankui accompanied them into the city to register for the county government.

Although military officers were suppressed by civil servants in this era, in fact, for middle and lower-level officials, especially civil and military officials who do not belong to each other, they are still in good terms with each other.

County officials need military officers to help them stabilize the local area, but military officers actually care about military officials who prepare military affairs and manage money and food. For local officials, no one is in the same system, so what do you care about?

However, military officers are not willing to offend civil servants, and it is also troublesome to sue you if you have nothing to do.

So in private, the relationship between Wu Zhankui and the magistrate is just like that. He is still polite in person, at least he can live up to his face.

As for some civil officials who look up at military generals, they are so arrogant that they can only appear between superiors and subordinates or related people, which is impossible in Pengze County.
