  Chapter 39 Revenge for Father

Li Kui thought about it for a while, and then finally remembered that he had seen in old files that a Juren from Tangyin County was arrested in Cizhou to take the exam for others, and was deprived of his merit and recorded in the record. It seems that his name is Li Daqi .

   "Oh! Your father..." Li Kui was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.

However, Li Yanqing stared at Li Kui with piercing eyes and said: "I know that my father has a bad reputation, and the matter is there. It is undeniable, but I want to ask the high officials a question. Farmers will use the grain they have worked so hard to grow. Pig?"

  Li Kui didn't understand Li Yanqing's meaning for a while, so he smiled and said: "Let's talk about it in detail, I don't quite understand."

"It's very simple. My father is very aware of the consequences of being found out for someone else's exam, and he doesn't have a penny of income for doing this kind of thing, let alone any other benefits. Then why would he risk his fame and future? Senior official Have you thought about this truth?"

  Li Kui finally understood Li Yanqing's analogy just now, no one would be willing to feed pigs with food, usually distiller's grains and pig grass, and similarly, no one would be willing to use the fame of a successful person to make wedding dresses for others.

   "Why is that?" Li Kui was a little curious.

"Because the person my father took the exam for was Ma Xiancheng's nephew. Under the threat of power, my father was cowardly by nature and dared not refuse to go. After the incident, my father was completely ruined. Jia Ci died of illness, but Ma The county magistrate is safe and sound, how unfair this is to my father!"

Li Kui finally remembered that he was Ma Xiancheng's nephew. He nodded and said, "I can understand your feelings, but many things in this world have nothing to do with fairness. As an ordinary person, we can only be more cautious. Do something that you can't afford."

   Li Kui's implication is that although it is a bit unfair, your father still went to take the exam for him. He has made mistakes, and he is an ordinary person. How can he be exempted?

At this time, Li Yanqing knelt down and said with tears in his eyes: "The student is not trying to absolve father from the crime, but just begs the high officials to see that my father was forced to take the exam for me, because my father has ruined his family and his wife died because of this. For the sake of being poor for many years, remove the records for him! The students will definitely remember the kindness of the officials."

  There are two main punishments for Li Daqi taking the exams for him. One is to remove his name from the examination, and the other is to record it in the record and never take the imperial examination again.

  For Li Daqi, once it is recorded, no examiner will admit him no matter how good he is in the exam.

Not only that, the official records also have a major impact on Li Yanqing, just like his father has a criminal record, he will be admitted as the No. There is no hope in the exam.

   But once Li Daqi's file records are removed, Li Daqi will be corrected in the officialdom. After more than ten years, the officials have changed their dials so many times that such small things will not be remembered.

  Of course Li Kui understands this, and he also cherishes Li Yanqing's talent very much. It would be a pity if such a gifted child loses his chance to succeed because of his father's influence in the future.

More importantly, Li Kui has the right to delete the files and records for Li Daqi. He can send people to the village to find out how Li Daqi has been doing in the past few years. , then Li Kui can give Li Daqi a chance to get rid of bad records for him.

   Of course, it is impossible to take the imperial examination again.

Li Kui pondered for a long time and then slowly said: "For the sake of your filial piety, I can write down this matter, but business must be done publicly, and the regulation is a five to ten-year observation period, so I will take the lower limit. The school will send people to the village to check your father's performance, and if he behaves well, I will remove the bad records from the file for him."

Li Yanqing was very grateful in his heart. He didn't think about it for himself. He didn't want to take any imperial examinations at all. He just wanted to remove the official records for his father, remove the heavy shackles in his heart for his father, so that his father could face it again. live.

  Li Yanqing knew that according to normal procedures, the magistrate would not take the initiative to ask about this kind of thing. The county school had to submit the application first, and then it was approved step by step, and finally it was in the hands of the magistrate.

  But with Ma Xiancheng here, who will mention this matter again?

Although Li Kui appreciates himself, this is not the reason why he is willing to help him. The real reason is his nature, his kind heart and integrity. Li Yanqing is grateful in his heart, and he gives Li Kui another big gift, "Long Those who loved him so much, Yanqing will remember them in his heart."

  . ． ． ． ． ． ．

   There was an exam tomorrow, so Li Kui didn't talk to Li Yanqing much, but asked him about his study and life, and then let him go back.

  Li Yanqing bid farewell and left the study. He had just walked to the corridor outside when he heard someone calling him from behind. When he turned his head, he saw that it was Li Jiuzhen, the little girl, chasing him out.

   "I still said why I didn't see you!" Li Yanqing stopped walking and laughed.

  Li Jiuzhen ran forward angrily and said, "You don't want to see me at all, and you run faster than a rabbit when you go out."

   "Where is it? Because there is an exam tomorrow, I am in a hurry to go back and study."

   "Well! This is a very good reason, forget it, don't blame you, then how are you going to give me the new book?"

  Li Yanqing scratched his head, wouldn't this little lady go buy it by herself? He changed his mind, and asked with a smile: "Do you want Lushan Xiaoxiaozi to write a few words for you in the book?"

  Li Jiuzhen nodded heavily, that's what she meant, and she asked cautiously: "Is it okay?"

"no problem!"

  Li Yanqing enthusiastically agreed, it was easy for him, but he suddenly thought, if she recognized his handwriting, wouldn't she know that he was the author? This idea just flashed by, and Li Yanqing thought of a solution, just ask his father to write a few words for him.

   "Then how do I send it to you?"

  Li Jiuzhen smiled, and quickly handed him a note, "It's my address on it, you can go to the post station and ask them to give the book to my father, remember to wrap it up well, don't let them damage it."

  Li Yanqing accepted the address and waved to her, "I'm leaving, we'll see you later when we have a chance."

  Li Jiuzhen watched him go out of the side door all the time. When he got to the door, Li Yanqing turned around and waved to her, and his figure disappeared outside the door.

   "Jiu Niang, what's the matter?" Father Li Kui appeared behind her, lovingly stroking his daughter's small head.

   "Daddy, I'm here to see brother Qing off."

  Li Kui said with a smile: "The poem he wrote this morning is really good. Would you like Daddy to show it to you?"

   "Yeah! Where is it?"

   "It's in Daddy's study, Daddy will take you to see it."

  Li Jiuzhen took his father's hand and followed him to the study in a bouncing manner.

Before dawn, more than 20 fellow villagers spontaneously escorted the students to the county school in an ox cart. They held torches, and a young student walked in the front carrying a lantern. On the lantern was written the four characters of "Lushan School" , especially conspicuous in the night.

  Today's exam will start at 9 o'clock and end at noon, that is, from 6:00 am to 12:00 noon, a full three hours.

  The exam is relatively simple, and the difficulty is only equivalent to the first question of the debate exam. It is mainly to test the foundation of the students. The content includes the three Confucian classics, "Book of Filial Piety", "The Analects of Confucius" and "Mencius", and it is also to test the calligraphy of the students.

  However, in consideration of various unexpected situations, only the results of three of the four students were taken, and after summing up the results of the debate test, the final total score was formed.

  Although the difficulty is not high, the grading standards are very strict. One wrong word or one alteration will affect the score, so students need to be more careful and think twice before writing.

As the bell rang, the exam began. Thirty-two tables were set up in the spacious hall. Thirty-two students from eight schools sat on the desks. Everyone was thinking and writing, and the hall was unusually quiet. , only the rustling sound of pens scratching paper.

  Three senior academics patrolled the aisles as invigilators, and directly above the lobby sat two senior academics at the state and county levels.

These three Confucian classics were recited countless times by the students in each school when preparing for the war. Everyone has memorized them thoroughly. Wang Gui, who is not good, also writes like a fly, answering the questions very smoothly.

A little bit of time passed, and there was still half an hour before the end of the exam. Li Yanqing was already working on the last question. He read the question several times. Completion.

Li Yanqing pondered for a moment, then picked up a pen and wrote in the blank space: "For a house with five acres, the trees are covered with mulberry trees, and those who are fifty can wear silk clothes; chickens, pigs, pigs, and dogs can be eaten at the right time, and those who are seventy can eat meat." Don't take away the land of a hundred acres, and a family of eight will not be hungry. I would like to teach the preface and affirm the righteousness of filial piety, and those who award it will not be burdened by the road. The old man wears silk and eats meat, and the people of the Li people are neither hungry nor cold, but there is no king, and there is no such thing'

  Li Yanqing put down the pen lightly, dried the ink carefully, and double-checked carefully. There was no mistake in a single word, 'Dang! ’ The bell rang for the third reminder, and Xuezheng Yao Wannian said loudly: “For the last reminder, there is still a stick of incense time!”

  A few students didn’t grasp the time well, and began to write anxiously, ‘Oh! ’ A student let out a low exclamation, apparently making a mistake in his busy schedule.

  Li Yanqing raised his hand when the ink was completely dry. An old scholar smiled and stepped forward to take away his paper. At this time, Yue Fei also raised his hand, and he was about to hand in the paper.
