次日(ri)商议写覆(fu)呈(cheng),王德、王仁说(shuo):身在黉(hong)宫,片纸(zhi)不入(ru)公门。不肯列名。严振先(xian)只得混帐(zhang)覆了(le)几句(ju)话(hua),说:赵氏(shi)本是妾,扶正也是(shi)有据的。严(yan)贡生(sheng)说与律例不合,不(bu)肯叫(jiao)儿子认(ren)做母亲,也是事(shi)实。听(ting)候(hou)大老(lao)爷天断。那(na)汤知县也是妾生(sheng)的儿(er)子,见了覆呈道:律设大(da)法,理顺人情,这贡生(sheng)也(ye)忒多事了!就批了个极长(zhang)的批话,说:赵氏既(ji)扶过正,不(bu)应只(zhi)管(guan)说是妾;如(ru)严贡生不(bu)愿将儿子承继,由赵氏(shi)自行拣(jian)择(ze),立贤(xian)立(li)爱(ai)可也。严贡生看(kan)了这批,那头(tou)上的火直冒了(le)有十几(ji)丈;随即写呈(cheng)到(dao)府里去告。府尊也是有(you)妾的,看著(zhe)觉得多事,令(ling)高要(yao)县(xian)查案。知县查上案去,批了个知详缴(jiao)。严贡(gong)生(sheng)更急了(le),到省赴按察司一状(zhuang);司批(pi)‘细(xi)故赴府县(xian)控理。’严贡生没(mei)法了,回不(bu)得头(tou)。想道:周学(xue)道是亲家一族,赶到京里求了(le)周(zhou)学(xue)道在部里(li)告下状来,务必要正名(ming)分。只因这一去,有分教:‘多年名宿,今番又掇高科;英俊(jun4)少年(nian),一举便登(deng)上第(di)。’
