Zhang Chengxi’s new official took office as the guest of the banquet, Zhang’s relatives and friends, and Zhang Chengxi’s colleague, Bo Ding Decai, the lord of Xinhe County, Mr. Wu Fuwu who also served as the county chief of Xinhe County, and Mr. Dian Shiwei, finally It was the county lord Nie Yongnie who attended the banquet together.
In addition to the adults in Xinhe County, Nanyou County and Dujiang County are adjacent to Xinhe County. The Zhang family also has a lot of properties in these two counties. The Duanmu family in Nanyou County and the Sima family in Dujiang County The relationship with the Zhang family is also very close.
Therefore, Song Jin, the magistrate of Nanyou County, and Ma Xuewang, the magistrate of Dujiang County, were also invited to the banquet. In addition, the head of the Duanmu family in Nanyou County and many scholars from the Baima Academy, as well as the head of the Sima family in Dujiang County and many talented scholars from Xihu Academy. And was invited to a banquet.
With the status of the Zhang family, let alone inviting ordinary county magistrates to family dinners, even the prefects of Yangzhou and the chief officials of the various Taiyamen are often the guests of the Zhang family.
But this time the banquet was different, because Zhang Chengxi went into office and he invited friends and colleagues to entertain him in hopes that everyone would take care of him in the future.
However, the relationship between Nie Yong and Song Jin and Ma Xuewang in Xinhe County is very delicate. In addition, it will be a boy test soon. Zhang Chengxi invited many talents from Baima Academy and West Lake Academy together, which is somewhat of a show of skill. .
In addition to the guests outside, the young generation of Zhang Haoran, Zhang Tang, Zhang Zhen, Tian Zepeng, and Shu Yuan from Guanshan Academy were also at the banquet.
Zhang Chengxi has just been "entrusted with a heavy responsibility" by Nie Yong to be responsible for exhorting schools in Xinhe County. It will soon be a boy test. Zhang Chengxi will have the opportunity to banquet the guests. First, Zhang's scholars and the good seedlings he has chosen will show their faces in front of Nie Yong. .
In addition, he also wanted to show his hand to Linxian and fight psychological warfare. The so-called three fires when new officials took office, Zhang Chengxi wanted to make the first fire flourish.
At the banquet, everyone was in a harmonious atmosphere, and Zhang Chengxi was already a little bit drunk as the arrogant ambitions crossed.
He raised his wine glass, looked around, and said, "My lords, this time I went to Yingtian from the west and was fortunate enough to see the Governor-General Zhan Tianqi. Mr. Zhan praised us Yangzhou very much.
Among the state capitals in the south of the Yangtze River, Yangzhou is the most famous, and I am the most famous by the Slender West Lake..."
Zhang Chengxi kept talking with joy when he opened his mouth, and he repeated his encounters in Yingtian this time to everyone one by one, and his words were not without complacency in his words. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Especially when speaking of Lord Zhan, Governor of Nanzhili, he was even more excited like a chicken blood. Lord Zhan personally met him at the Governor’s office and gave him words of encouragement, which made Zhang Chengxi especially proud.
Today, Zhang's banquet was as usual. The female relatives were in the side hall. The old lady was very excited when he heard Zhang Chengxi's remarks in the side hall.
The Governor of Zhili is a second-ranking rank. Lord Zhan's status is higher than that of the six books, second only to the prime minister of the cabinet. Zhang Chengxi was personally interviewed and encouraged by Lord Zhan. What does this mean?
This shows that as long as Zhang Chengxi does a good job, he has a boundless future!
Not to mention Zhang's mother, the colleagues at the scene were also very envious of Zhang Chengxi, including Song Jin and Ma Xuewang, they all looked envious.
Zhang Chengxi is a county prime minister in Xinhe County, lower than them in terms of official position, but Zhang Chengxi is not Nie Yong. The Zhang family in Yangzhou is a first-class wealthy powerhouse, and it can be said that the foundation is very deep.
With Zhang Chengxi in Xinhe County, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with in the future. At one time, Song and Ma both felt troublesome with Nie Yong's hand. After 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, Nie Yong suffered three years in Yangzhou. Now it's finally ushered in a turnaround.
This time Nie Yongjuxian’s success has given a clear signal in Yangzhou’s officialdom. First of all, the new Yangzhou prefect Liang Quanyi admires Nie Yong, and second, Nie Yong has climbed to the top of Yangzhou’s top wealthy family, and the governance of Xinhe County will no longer be a problem.
If the Xinhe County boy tries to report victory this time, the results of the three-year evaluation may be reversed. Nie Yong may turn over and achieve a counterattack among the eight counties in Yangzhou!
Things in the officialdom are so delicate. A few months ago, Nie Yong was in a precarious situation, and his position as a county magistrate seemed to be insecure.
And a few months later, Nie Yong's situation has changed drastically, and he has now vaguely become the hottest magistrate among the eight counties in Yangzhou.
"Master Zhang, today is your day to entertain guests. We will have a lot of time to deal with our colleagues in the future, but this time the young people finally got together. Tell me, what kind of good seedlings are there today?" Nie Yong With a little drunkenness, he drank a glass of wine, pointed to the courtyard outside, and said loudly.
Because of the cold weather, there was no one in the yard, and a group of talented people were arranged in the side hall on the other side. These young people had already waited for them.
When Zhang Chengxi heard Nie Yong's words, he immediately said: "Come here, invite all the talents from Xinhe County!"
Cui Da heard Zhang Chengxi's words and immediately went to the side hall to invite people. After a while, Zhang Haoran, Zhang Tang, Zhang Zhen, Tian Zepeng, Shu Yuan and other young talents entered the hall.
Zhang Chengxi pointed at Zhang Haoran and others and said: "My lord, this time the boy tried to end up with the most promising seedlings. I will introduce them to the adults one by one!"
Zhang Chengxi called the names one by one, and the famous students were all excited and inexplicably excited. They stepped forward to meet Nie Xianzun. They had practiced this process many times beforehand. Everyone had an arrangement for what they said. This meeting was natural. Very smooth, at first glance, the temperament of the candidates in Xinhe County is really extraordinary.
Nie Yong asked everyone one by one, and his mood became very good. Zhang Chengxi immediately said: "Master Nie, Dog Haoran has a reputation for being a child, this time he only needs to participate in the hospital examination.
The first student in our county, Oda Tian Zepeng is the most astute and intelligent, Zepeng, stand up and show you adults a good look? "
Tian Zepeng stood out from the crowd, his expression was calm, neither humble nor overbearing, he bent down, bowed, clasped his fists, and said, "Student Tian Zepeng has seen all the adults!"
"Okay!" Nie Yongyi clapped his hands and said: "Tian Zepeng, I have heard your name a long time ago. This time you must try your best to fight for my Xinhe County!"
Nie Yong said yes, then stood up and walked to Tian Zepeng's side, and he was very affectionate to help him up. His action made Tian Zepeng happy.
Today’s meeting can be used to determine the ranking of the county test. In this boy test, Tian Zepeng won the first place in the county test.
The purpose of the boy test county test is to select the best students in a county. Therefore, the county test has many unspoken rules.
For example, like today, Zhang Chengxi called Zhang Haoran and a group of people over to see Nie Yong. This is actually "selling" them to pass, and he focused on Tian Zepeng. This is to tell Nie Yong that Tian Zepeng's talent is among the students in the county. the best.
Putting Tian Zepeng as the head of the case, he will surely shine in the next government and hospital examinations, and will be the face of Xinhe County.
The boy test in the scientific examination is fiercely competitive with the county as a unit. The score of the boy test is the main performance evaluation index of the county chief. Nie Yong now needs to use this boy test to completely establish his position!
Nie Yong had such thoughts, and Song Jin and Ma Xuewang naturally also had such thoughts. They also understood the purpose of Zhang Chengxi's banquet today before they came.
Nie Yong and Zhang Chengxi have finished their performances, where are Song Jin and Ma Xuewang willing to fall behind? Immediately, many talents from Nanyou and Dujiang counties were also called to the main hall.
The most famous student in Nanyou County is Duanmuqiu from the Duanmu family, while the most famous student in Dujiang County is Sima Yi from the Sima family.
Looking at Duanmuqiu and Sima Yi, both of them are talents of the same kind, and they are very decent in the face of many adults. No matter they are talented, they are not weaker than Tian Zepeng.
In addition to these two people, the other students in the two counties are also extraordinary. Since ancient times, the literati have been light-hearted, and the banquet has reached this stage, and the atmosphere in the main hall has become strong.
Since Zhang Chengxi wanted to show his ability today, he naturally wouldn't back down easily. Over the past six months, he has personally supervised Zhang Haoran and others to study, and he has full confidence in the level of Zhang Haoran and others.
Immediately, he laughed and said, "Masters, it will be a boy test soon. Today, we finally gathered students from the three counties. In addition, all the county elders are also here, or today we will let the children compare. Bi Caixue can also be regarded as a test of power for the boy."
"Come here, take out the lottery I prepared!"
Zhang Chengxi had prepared the color heads long ago. These color heads are all the pen and inkstone in the study. The pen is the top-notch lake pen, the ink is the first-class Hui ink, and the inkstone is the first-class end inkstone.
Red ropes are tied on the colored heads, and three colored heads are placed on the tables at the table. What's more surprising is that there is a plate next to each colored head, and a few ingots of yellow gold are placed on the plate.
"Ah..." Seeing so much gold, everyone exclaimed.
The Zhang family is really a big hand. If anyone wins the top three in Wenbi this time, he can get such a plate of gold? For a while, the students were all eager to try, especially some of the children from poor families, they were even more excited as if they were beaten up.
"My Excellencies, how should this competition be conducted today, please let the adults decide! Our lord does whatever the guest does?" Zhang Chengxi said with a smile.
Listening to his tone, full of confidence, Nie Yong stood up and looked at Song Jin and Ma Xue with his hands, "Master Song, Master Ma, since Master Zhang said that the host and the guest are free, then bother the two of you to ask the question!"
Nie Yong’s expression is very calm. He is in a good mood today. Looking at the situation before him, he was worried about the problems that he would have to spend a lot of money and energy to deal with. Now Zhang Chengxi has handled it properly for him, better than him. It's good to go out by himself, and it can really be said that he has eradicated his confidant troubles.
