Qianlong micro-service private visit, casually said a shanglian, but was 9-year-old beggar to the top, Qianlong: Zhuangyuan!
In the history of China, in the ancient period, everything had to be related to the same as in modern times, for example, some children born in the family of officials and eunuchs, they can rely on the relationship of their ancestors, without any effort, they can get a position, these for those who are born in the cold door, only look at the distance, is beyond their reach. The only way to become an official is to pass the imperial examination, and as long as you are admitted to the examination, you can be qualified to be an official. This ancient system is still somewhat similar to the modern system.
In ancient times, if the temple tried to win the first place, the emperor would crown him as a champion, and may also be summoned as a donkey, his future may be unlimited, this is also the biggest pursuit of the candidates, the reality is always very cruel, there is only one champion, it is very difficult to stand out among many people, but there is such a special column, there was a beggar at that time, because in a chance, because of the coincidence of fate, he met the emperor, on the couplet, and finally the emperor let him become such a champion.
Everyone knows that during the Qianlong period, he was very prosperous, it can be said that he handled his era very well when he was in power, Qianlong has his own superiority, Qianlong is not talented, but he has also read a lot of books, very good at writing and couplets, no matter where to play, he will go to find all kinds of Yaxing, such as and people chanting poems, couplets, riddles and all kinds of interesting things, once, in the summer of a certain year, Qianlong after dealing with government affairs, very Yaxing, go to the street micro service private visits, At that time, the ministers all went home, so the only eunuchs who could accompany him were some guards, because they were micro-service private visits, so they were dressed very plainly, and like ordinary people, there was no big publicity to warn people.
When he was idle on the road, qianlong suddenly saw that there was a spacious road in front of him, so he came out with such an upward link, a large road leading to the north and south, if those learned ministers were there, they would certainly be able to give a beautiful lower link.
But at this time, the eunuchs who followed Qianlong were either eunuchs or bodyguards, so no one could answer this couplet, and then a eunuch patted the emperor on the ass and said that such a couplet, no one could match. However, what is unexpected is that a 9-year-old beggar heard the eunuch say this, very dissatisfied, so he said such a simple couplet, you actually said that no one can match, it is really funny, the emperor saw this child mouth out of the mouth said that if you can be right, I will let you become this year's champion.
The child replied that the small shops on both sides were selling things, and this kind of downlink was very perfect. Qianlong was very happy, took him back to the palace, and named him a champion.
