Feeling that life experiences are meaningless, Gao Pragmatic is a very pragmatic person, and he was most annoyed to read chicken soup in his previous life, so he quickly adjusted his thoughts back and talked about his insights with the three new protégés and talked about the next arrangements.

Although Gao Pragmatic is younger than the three protégés, he is indeed a senior, and the honor of the six champions is there, and he is qualified to say this.

What's more, just the day before yesterday, when the three new science and technology scholars participated in the erection of the monument - the Jinshi inscription monument - they paid homage to the white marble tablet that their own Entang Lord left his name for thousands of years, and the poems on the tablet were like gentle blades, engraved into the hearts of the three people one by one.

"The dragon and tiger sing the gold list, and the wind and cloud gathering is a jade crown. In the past two hundred years, I have been the leader of the book. ”

Grace of the world, the royal pen book Dan.

There is such a teacher, not to mention that Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe are excited, even Li Tingji, who obviously won Huiyuan but lost the champion, has been regretting it for the past few days, and at this time, it is also a lot more exciting to get Mr. Gao's personal guidance.

Li Tingji actually didn't lose the champion because of his lack of literary talent, because how to say the name of champion...... As mentioned earlier, some other factors may be considered when choosing, such as the fact that in order to call on the majority of scholars to study hard, they usually do not choose the kind of scholars who are old, ugly, or have a bad image.

Li Tingji is not ugly, although he is just over forty years old, he is actually not very old, but he is unlucky - Zhu Guozuo, the champion selected in the end, has three major advantages compared to him.

First of all, Zhu Guozuo is young. He is only 25 years old this year, and he meets the standard of an ideal scholar who is young and talented.

Secondly, Zhu Guozuo is handsome. This person is eight feet long and has an elegant face, when Zhu Yijunfu saw him, he even felt that he was very similar to Gao Pragmatic, and his eyes immediately lit up - in fact, this is still the comparison of Gao Pragmatic after Zhu Yijun's "plus points", if you only talk about being handsome, in fact, Zhu Guozuo is better.

Finally, Zhu Guozuo's name is good. Fortunately, the name is not very useful in ordinary times, and it really plays a role in the selection of champions: Zhu, the surname of the country! Guozuo ...... It's all called Guozuo, and of course the emperor also hopes that the Ming Dynasty will be "Guozuo forever", and it can't be said if he doesn't put the first place.

So it doesn't matter if the article is recognized as the first place, anyway, Zhu Guozuo also did well in the exam, even if he moved forward a little bit, it was not a big problem, but it only hurt Li Tingji, a true genius who was a late bloomer - his brother was the first in the township test and the first in the examination.

But sometimes life is hard to come by, and Li Tingji has no choice but to sigh.

Li Tingji actually doesn't have to listen to any scientific anecdotes, and he doesn't even have to listen to much experience, because he is a list of people and belongs to the "immortals", so he doesn't have to participate in the museum selection, and will be directly awarded to the Hanlin Academy for editing.

However, Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe can't be so easy, they must honestly listen to Gao Pragmatic tell them some experience in passing the hall selection, so as not to fail in the hall selection and not be able to embark on the most glorious path.

Li Tingji was actually a little curious, although this Entang Lord was powerful, he himself was also a "heavenly immortal" back then, and he had never participated in the hall exam at all, so I don't know how he was going to guide Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe?

Who knew that Gao pragmatic's guidance was extremely simple, and he said in a brisk tone: "This year's hall examination will be presided over by Chen Yuanzhong, the son of Mr. Chen Nanchong, the former assistant minister of Jialong. ”

Li Tingji was stunned for a moment, and Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe's eyes widened suddenly-This hasn't been tested yet, Lord Entang, you even know who the main examiner of the hall exam is? You must know that the hall selection is not a spring festival, and the examiner will not be "closed" first, in other words...... Theoretically, you might even ask him what the problem is!

Of course, this is only a theory, because the more crucial problem is that the chief examiner of the hall examination is usually appointed by the emperor on the previous day.

Gao pragmatic looked at the three protégés who were stunned, and said lightly: "Don't be surprised, this is what the emperor told me personally." ”

"Oooh......"

The three of them were so shocked that they couldn't find the words to deal with it for a while.

Gao Shishi couldn't help laughing, clapped his hands lightly, and two family members came over with pineapple wooden plates, and some books were placed in the wooden plates.

The two propagators walked up to Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe, and Gao Shishi said: "These are all copies of Brother Yuan Zhong's manuscripts, including his past studies, his essays for the exam, and the model texts he wrote when he was in the Hanlin Academy, and even some articles and expositions he wrote when he gave lectures to the emperor. If you take it and look at it, you'll probably know what kind of articles he will value. ”

"Thank you for your kindness, students will definitely read carefully and think carefully." Ye Xianggao reacted quickly, immediately got up, and bowed to Gao pragmatically to thank him.

Fang Congzhe also stood up and bowed: "Entang is generous, and the students will live up to the expectations of Entang." ”

Li Tingji originally felt that this seemed to be a bit unruly, but with a turn of his mind, he turned a rare turn - if this matter is to be said to be unruly, isn't it the emperor who is the first to disobey the rules? If I stand up and accuse Entang, wouldn't it be tantamount to accusing the emperor? It's not appropriate, it's not the work of a minister, I can't do it......

Gao Pragmatic dealt with Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe with a smile, and at the same time saw Li Tingji's demeanor clearly with the corner of his eye, and couldn't help but laugh in his heart: It seems that Li Tingji's illusions about Zhu Yijun are still very disillusioned, probably this "Holy Monarch" has made his image in Li Tingji's mind quite good.

But then again, will the "slack" Zhu Yijun in history appear? Probably not.

Gao Pragmatic's hand shocked Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe.

Why does the new science and technology worship Mr.? Isn't it because Mr. can help him improve? Take a look at the ability of our Entang, this is to help yourself improve!

He didn't leak the topic, and the effect was even worse; He didn't point out, and the effect was even more pointing!

But Gao Pragmatic didn't seem to notice their excitement, but turned his head and said to Li Tingji: "Erzhang, after you enter the Hanlin Academy for editing, it will take about half a year to a year, and the Hanlin Academy may have some changes...... At that time, you need to be ready to become a librarian. ”

What is an exhibition officer? During the feast, the official of the Hanlin Academy, who was responsible for serving the imperial case and opening the book for the emperor, was the exhibition officer.

It seems that this official is as cheap as a scholar.

But in fact, the exhibition officer is really not cheap, don't underestimate this position.

As I said before, the emperor's feast is a major event of the imperial court, and the officials who can participate in it, even if it is the exhibition official who is only responsible for helping the emperor open the book, is also a symbol of knowledge and status - those officials who are released from the outside world, even if they are a government or even a provincial government, as long as he has not been a Hanlin official, he is not qualified to come to the exhibition.

What's more, generally speaking, most of the Hanlin officials before becoming Japanese lecturers have to go through the transition of exhibition officials first, and it is actually rare to go directly to the Japanese lecturer without being an exhibition official - not everyone is called Gao Pragmatism.

If you want to put it more clearly, under normal circumstances, after the three-year editing examination, you can become an exhibition officer if you have a good opportunity, but if you have a bad opportunity...... Wait another three years.

And Gao Shishi's words just now can be understood as Li Tingji's entry into the Hanlin Academy for about half a year to a year, and he can directly become an exhibition official - this corresponds to the time when he will be a Japanese lecturer in the future, which has been advanced by at least two years.

Li Tingji is over forty years old, of course there is no shortage of literary talents, although he is upright, but he also knows that what he lacks now is actually the time to climb up. And now Entang's words will save him two years, so if it is not called Enzhong, why is Enzhong?

"Student...... Thanksgiving Hall. ”

When Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe heard this, they were also envious, and said in their hearts: This is the gap between "Heavenly Immortals" and "Halfway Immortal Cultivators", I don't know when the two of us will be able to show books for the Holy Lord?

Just thinking like this, who knew that Gao Shishi was like an unpredictable prophet like a god in the sky, and turned his head to the two of them: "You two don't have to worry, after the Shujishi is dissolved, I will also help you arrange to stay in Hanlin and Zhan Shi, as for whether you can participate in the feast at that time...... Well, let's do it, I will not only wait for Mr. Er, but also remind you: be closer to your Mr. Yulei Gong - you are too. ”

Yulei Gong is Chen Yulei, that is, Chen Yuma.

Of course, Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe, the two scholars, are smart people, after seeing the close relationship between Entang and the emperor, where can they not hear the meaning of these words?

Chen Yuma's majesty is about to be reused, and most of them will be reused in the Hanlin Academy!

Even according to Entang's tone, he made a bold guess that Chen Yuma was afraid that it would not be long before he would "take charge of the affairs of the hospital", and as for in what capacity he was "in charge of the affairs of the hospital", it did not matter.

The three of them got such a major guidance, naturally they were thankful, Gao pragmatic looked at the time, and said with a smile: "It's not too coincidental that you came today - of course you don't blame you for this - I am a foreign officer, and I am here to report on my work when I return to Beijing this time, so I can stay in Beijing for a limited time, and I have something to do with catching up with the Yunnan War, and the time is getting tighter, so I can only leave you for lunch today." ”

Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe hurriedly and respectfully said, "Entang attaches great importance to state affairs, and this is a model for students", but Li Tingji was not so tactful, and asked bluntly: "Does Entang want to go back to Liaodong?" The students haven't been busy lately, so they should say goodbye. ”

Gao Shishi laughed in his heart: You are already my student, if I really want to leave, I will naturally inform you, what is the hurry? It's like urging me to go. It seems that Li Tingji spent all his time studying in the past, and his ability to handle general affairs is limited...... In the future, I have to find an opportunity to train and train him, lest he still be a "temple elder" in the future.

"That's not it, I'm just short on time, but I'm not leaving." Gao pragmatic shook his head slightly: "You are my students, it doesn't hurt to tell you...... This afternoon, I made an appointment with Da Si Nong, Da Sima, Da Sikong, General Xian, and Brother Yuan Zhong to discuss the war in Yunnan. ”

In fact, Li Tingji, Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe didn't know what the relationship between Gao Pragmatic and the Yunnan war could be, but the people he put out just now were very scary: Da Si Nong is the head of the household department, Da Sima is the head of the Ministry of War, Da Sikong is the head of the Ministry of Industry, and the general constitution is the left capital of the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, as for the "Brother Yuan Zhong", it is a little strange - Brother Yuan Zhong is Chen Yuma, and Li Tingji and the three of them don't know how Chen Yuma, a senior Hanlin scholar, was also involved in the war in Yunnan.

It seems that we still have a lot to learn in terms of major affairs in the imperial court.

The three of them glanced at each other, and they didn't dare to ask more, so they could only thank Entang for telling each other.

Gao Pragmatic seemed to remember another thing, and said: "By the way, over there in the Hanlin Academy, I also greeted some former colleagues in the same year. After you go in, they will naturally take care of you where they can take care of you, and you must also be polite, and don't fold your face as a teacher. ”

There is really nothing to say about this Entang, and Li Tingji and the three of them feel that they only have one thing left to say thank you today.

Perhaps it was because things were busy in the afternoon, and the luncheon at Gao Shishi's mansion was held quite early, and Li Tingji and the other three protégés naturally accompanied him to dine together.

During the banquet, the teachers and students did not say anything "serious", but began to talk about some interesting anecdotes, when it was Ye Xianggao's turn, he hesitated a little, and said: "The student's hometown of Fuqing, Fujian, has some not very good legends in the past six months, which is about the ...... of Jinghua."

Gao was slightly stunned, with a smile on his face, and asked, "About Jinghua?" What legend? ”

Ye Xianggao's face was a little heavy, and he said: "There are false rumors among the people, saying that Jinghua buys and sells people. ”

Gao Shishi was suddenly a little inexplicable, and his brows furrowed: "What's going on, Jinghua only has two transactions in Fujian, sea trade and cement, and even the soap business is represented by the Wei Mansion and the Linhuai Marquis Mansion, how can there be such a ridiculous rumor?" ”

Ye Xianggao didn't answer immediately, but looked at Li Tingji and asked, "Nine, have you heard of my brother in Jinjiang?" ”

Li Tingji nodded when he heard this, and said bluntly to Gao pragmatically: "Entang, students have also heard of this matter in Jinjiang, saying that Jinghua often buys people by counting two to ten taels of silver, and then sells them overseas, up to tens of thousands of people every year...... There are even rumors that it is not the governor of Fujian who is the senior brother of Entang, but I am afraid that someone has already gone to Beijing to sue the emperor. ”

Gao Pragmatic suddenly realized when he heard "tens of thousands of people every year", slapped the table lightly, and said, "What kind of nonsense is this?" Jinghua does have a large number of recruits in Fujian, and it is true that they are sent to the so-called 'overseas', but they are all sent to Taiwan - oh, you should call it Longgang there, how can you say that people are bought and sold? ”

"Then can they still come back to Daming?" Ye Xianggao and Li Tingji were very compatible this time, and asked in unison.

Gao Pragmatic was angry and funny, and said: "Of course they can go back, but it's hard to say whether they are willing to go back or not." ”

This is a bit strange, Li Tingji didn't understand it for a while, and he didn't want to ask easily, but Ye Xianggao reacted quickly, and asked when he heard the words: "I don't know what Entang means by this?" The students heard that there were a lot of miasma in the land of the harbor, not only was it difficult for people and animals to live, but there were also few places where they could open up the land and open up the wasteland. ”

Gao pragmatic thought for a while, and said with a wry smile: "It seems that I have to start with you about this matter...... "I immediately told the three protégés about the plan for developing Taiwan.

After listening to Gao's pragmatic words, Li Tingji breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I see, but the students are too worried." ”

Ye Xianggao's face was solemn, he shook his head, frowned deeply, and said, "Entang, the student thinks this is ...... There's something strange about it. ”

"Oh?" Gao Xiangxing's heart moved, and he had already guessed what Ye Xianggao meant, but he said, "How can you see it?" ”

"Fujian Governor Han Gong is Entang's senior brother, and he is in charge of Fujian, why is there still a lot of discussion among the people about such a statement that is unfavorable to Jinghua?" Ye Xianggao said in a deep voice: "There is only one possibility, that is, this rumor is secretly fueled by someone, and the purpose is to hit Jinghua's reputation among the people of Fujian. ”

Gao Shishi was about to speak, but Fang Congzhe, who had not interjected, actually spoke up, and he coughed lightly: "Entang, I'm afraid this matter is not only limited to Fujian, but there are similar rumors in Zhejiang. ”

Gao pragmatic glanced around at the three people who also looked solemn, nodded, as if he was talking to them, and seemed to be talking to himself: "It seems that I underestimated them......"
