Chapter 553: The Spring of the Fourteenth Year of Yongzhi
After the Lantern Festival, the rich New Year's flavor in the capital slowly dissipated. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ infoImperial court yamen, schools, shops, restaurants, teahouses, and hotels have opened one after another. The streets gradually became bustling. Groups of scholars, speaking accents from all over the country, can be seen everywhere in the capital.
In late January, the Ministry of Rites issued a document announcing to the world that the Bingchen Ministry of Science and Rites will try to schedule February 21. At this point in time, more than 3,000 people who participated in the examination had all arrived in Beijing. Prepare to take the exam.
Because of the previous year, the army of Emperor Zhou pacified the Western Regions and suppressed the countries of the Western Regions. The imperial court reopened the Silk Road. The goods from the Western Regions in the capital are also gradually increasing. The number of small states paying tribute and meeting the Son of Heaven increased. The envoys of the small countries walked on the streets of Zhengyangmen in strange costumes, looking at the majestic, prosperous and powerful imperial capital of the heaven-court kingdom.
Since the Han and Tang dynasties, the Chinese Dynasty, which stood in the east, once again conquered the countries of the Western Regions after nearly a thousand years. (The Song and Ming dynasties did not gain access to the Western Regions.) Meng Yuan is not my race. The brilliance of Chinese civilization re-illuminated the vast land and rivers in the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains.
Zi said: If Yidi enters China, then China will be. When China enters Yidi, it will be Yidi.
China has great etiquette, so it is called summer, and there is the beauty of uniforms. Therefore, it is called Huaxia.
In late January, Hu Er drew a knife and injured people in the downtown area outside Chongwen Gate in Nancheng. Guarding the prince of Wusun. He Shuo, a university scholar, ordered the Nancheng Soldiers and Horses Division to arrest, and more than 20 people sat in a row, all of whom were killed in the West City. Send an envoy to question the king of Wusun.
The people of the Huanghuang kingdom are guilty, and if they are asked, how can they be humiliated by Hu'er? Is the sword of our generation unfavorable? The guns of our dynasty are not good?
The West Market was the site of the murder and execution of the Zhou Dynasty, and the vegetable market of the Pseudo-Qing Dynasty was similar to it. On the same day, the people of Beijing gathered in the West Market and applauded. Since then, in Beijing and all over the country, Hu Envoy and Hu Er have strictly adhered to the "Great Zhou Law" and followed the Han customs, and did not dare to rely on personal force and be arrogant.
The governing style of Scholar Ho is undoubtedly revealed.
After the literary weekly "Hanyuan Wenhua", which belongs to the Hanlin Academy, came out, there was a voice of applause and praise in Shilin. Under the auspices of Jia Huan, "Hanyuan Wenhua" has been changed from a semi-monthly to a weekly magazine.
Emperor Zhou Dingding Central Plains, mixed with one Yu, more than three generations and the Han and Tang Dynasties. The sky is polar, and there are no concubines. Those who are disrespectful to the kings of the Gentiles will be captured alive; Destroy the barbarian raiders. This is the demeanor of a great power!
The imperial court reopened the land Silk Road, and silk, tea and other goods started from Chang'an, passed through the north, south and central three lines, and converged in Dunhuang in Zhangye, Jiuquan and Guazhou, and went out of the Western Regions. Nowadays, the sea trade is prosperous, and it is basically gathered in Guangzhou. Merchants in Guangzhou, rich enough to rival the country. However, there are also places where maritime trade cannot be reached, as well as seasonality. The land Silk Road is also quite profitable.
Jingshi was not the center of the land and maritime Silk Road. It can't be as prosperous as Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty. But, it is the center of politics. When Huang Zhou won a series of victories in foreign wars, many people came here. Or, something is coming. The capital city, with a population of about 3 million, shows its vitality and charm.
In the spring of the fourteenth year of Yongzhi, in a light rain with a steep spring cold, it came quietly.
In the west of the capital, at the foot of Miaofeng Mountain, Dongzhuang Town, known as the pearl of western Beijing, is immersed in light rain. The town is full of cars and people, and it is very prosperous. The examination is approaching, and Dongzhuang Town, which is famous for its education industry, has frequent exchanges with scholars.
In addition, the Son of Heaven has great faith in King Wu. And King Wu is a good friend of Master Zhichen, the host of Tantuo Temple on Miaofeng Mountain. Princess Wu believed in Buddhism. King Wu often brought his family and children to Tantuo Temple. Some people in the capital admired and befriended Master Zhichen.
The incense of Tantuo Temple is very much, and the temple has been repaired more splendidly in recent years. The Buddha should be dressed in gold.
The world-renowned Wendao Academy is located at the foot of the mountain. The bleak light rain fell on the woods, courtyards, and small pavilions. Compared to the bustle of the town, the college is very quiet. This is mainly due to the planning of the town by the Xianheng Commercial Bank, which controls the administrative and commercial power of Dongzhuang Town. Wendao Academy is surrounded by residential areas. The centre of town is a few miles away from the College.
In a school where children were taught in the old campus, a handsome teenager was restless, flipping through the "College Handouts", his eyes glazed and absent-minded.
The boy was about eleven or twelve years old, with a delicate appearance, wearing a fine white gown, a sweat towel of silk material tied around his waist, and a jade pendant. The fan bag contains a precious folding fan made of ebony wood. At first glance, you can tell that it is from a famous aristocratic family.
Wendao Academy is no longer the academy established by Zhang Anbo, the head of the mountain, more than ten years ago. After the flood reconstruction in the ninth year of Yongzhi, with the establishment of Xianheng Commercial Bank, a large amount of capital flowed into the academy every year.
In addition, the second president, Ye Hongyun, was determined to reform and adopted many of Jia Huan's suggestions. At this time, Wendao Academy was already the top academy in the country. There is a library building, a printing office, a playground, a canteen and other places. Similar to the configuration of a modern university.
There are also professors, lecturers and other grades, equipped with housing, and salaries. There are dozens of large and small colleges in the capital, and a large number of outstanding teachers have switched to Wendao Academy. Among them, there are many people who have the fame of Jinshi.
In addition to the classics, the college also offers courses in arithmetic, criminal names, money and grain, money and grain, management, business, and engineering. If you do not wish to take the imperial examination, you can transfer to these courses. It can also be taken as an option. After graduating, some entered Xianheng Commercial Bank. There's a lot of talent in there. Some of them served as staff members for the teacher's officialdom friends. Yes, they went to other trading houses to make a living.
It is no exaggeration to say that Wendao Academy is a leader in the country's government-run county schools, state schools, government schools, and private colleges, and it is unique in teaching children and talents at the level of learning.
Therefore, there is no shortage of children of the powerful who are enrolled in school. There are many, many students like Xiuyi Boy.
Wendao College recruits students through a variety of channels. Broadly speaking, there are two types. The children of the powerful can pay 500 taels of silver to enroll in school. The rest, in terms of qualifications. There are entrance exams. There are scholarships available in the school.
The style of the academy is rigorous, and heroes are judged by articles and exam results. It is similar to the modern combination of public primary and secondary schools.
At the desk, the teenager's friend wrote a note and asked, "Jia Lan, what's wrong with you?" In two days, the county will have to try. β
In the spring of the fourteenth year of Yongzhi, at the same time that the Ministry of Rites would try to determine the best of the world, all states and counties in the world were holding the first of the three levels of the children's examination at the same time: the county examination.
The boys who are still studying in Wendao Academy are basically candidates from Wanping and Daxing counties. Those who have traveled a long way have already returned to their respective counties. Jiafu is located in the west of the inner city of the capital and belongs to Wanping County. The county test is scheduled for February 12.
Jia Lan thought for a while, picked up a pen on the paper, and replied, "My mother came to Dongzhuang Town today. β
In November, the crown prince coup d'Γ©tat. Jiafu suffered a great calamity. Fortunately, Uncle Huan sent troops back to survive. He was worried about his mother. He went back to the house to stay for a few days, and then sent his mother to study at the academy. He knows his mother: Jackie Chan!
During the Spring Festival, with the power of Jiafu now, the guests in front of the door are like clouds, plus the comings and goings of friends in the world, New Year's wine, and singing, the house is too lively. He stayed in the house for only five days before returning to the academy to study. At this time, he missed his mother a little.
The line in the mother's hand, the wanderer's shirt. Whoever says an inch is careless, and he will be rewarded with three springs.

Light rain drifted away.
The professor's courtyard area in the new community of Wendao College, the residence of the dean Ye Hongyun. In the open Xuan, there are several scholars: Gongsun Liang, Luo Xiangyang, Pang Ze, Qiao Rusong, Wei Yang, Xu Yinglang, Yao Wei, and Ji Ming. Talking and laughing.
The wine and delicacies from the scholar's restaurant are displayed in front of the table. A light rain falls on the railings and stone slabs, merging happily into a stream and flowing away.
Today's gathering, mainly Jia Huan wrote to Mr. Ye: I asked you when you will leave for the capital to participate in the Bingchen Science and Technology Examination. He arranges room and board. There is also a letter to all students.
In the thirteenth year of Yongzhi, the seventieth birthday of the emperor of the Son of Heaven was opened. At that time, only Jia Huan, Gongsun Liang, and Luo Xiangyang participated in Wendao Academy, and all of them were selected.
Jia Huan broke the problem with a sentence of "Pifu can be a hundred masters, and in a word is the law of the world", seized Huiyuan, and tried the flowers in the palace, and is now a Hanlin attendant. Gongsun Liang gave up his official position and returned to the academy to study, but his ambition was not in his career. Luo Xiangyang vowed not to enter the career of Sandingjia, teaching and studying in the academy.
The thirteenth year of Yongzhi is also the year of the township test. In August, Pang Ze, Qiao Rusong, Xu Yinglang, Wei Yang and many others participated in the township test. Only Xu Yinglang passed the Beizhili Township Test. The rest of the people failed in the two attempts, and the field was stumbling.
Therefore, in this year's examination, only Ji Ming, Ji Dexin, Luo Xiangyang, and Xu Yinglang, who came to Beijing to attend Jia Huan's wedding in June last year, participated. The people of the academy do not have a national supervisor and pay tribute.
Ye Hongyun had a generous temperament, shook his head, and sighed lightly: "Ziyu's mentality is becoming more and more leisurely now. That's not a good thing. Although I don't know much about officialdom, I also know the truth of sailing against the current. Alas..."
He was a little worried. Jiafu is now a situation full of flowers and cooking oil. In fact, such a situation is more likely to cause accidents. And Jia Huan seems to be content with pleasure.
Gongsun Liang smiled warmly and comfortingly: "Mr. Ye, it's okay for Senior Brother Jia to lie dormant for a while now. A Hanlin attendant of his age said that it was too scary. Always wait for the limelight to pass. I heard that Scholar He appreciated him very much. β
Looking back, he will remind Xia Ziyu not to indulge in the gentle countryside.
Pang Ze was ugly and dressed in a neat shirt, and he married a good wife. He is quite proficient in power schemes, and said with a smile: "Mr. Ye, Ziyu is not liked by today's son, and he is not beautiful against the trend."
It's okay to take a break for a year or two. From what I know about Ziyu, he is not subject to human nature. I will definitely not want to stop at the official career and talk to the Hanlin servant. Mr. Ye, but rest assured. β
He knew very well that the mountain chief intended to leave all political resources to Jia Huan. Jia Huan is burdened with the political will of the entire Wendao Academy system. It is impossible for Jia Huan to speak as a Hanlin attendant and become the standard-bearer of the entire system and team.
I believe Jia Huan knows it. The official position is definitely going to be promoted. However, it has been dormant for a while recently, and it is the right choice.
Ye Hongyun nodded, smiled, and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this topic, let's talk about poetry." "Raise a glass and have a drink with the disciples.
Gongsun Liang stood up, full of interest, holding a cup and smiling: "Ziyu's first song of Nian Nujiao-Chibi nostalgia came out, and since then there is no word for nostalgia." However, I prefer the song 'Shouting Senior Li Qinglian'. β
The poem really gives the feeling that the talent is about to overflow. Everyone laughed and talked lightly. The atmosphere in the open pavilion became brilliant in the light rain.

When everyone in Wendao Academy was laughing and talking about poetry and life, a beautiful carriage from Rongguo Mansion arrived in Dongzhuang Town in the rain. Li Kun was in the carriage and brushed his hair in front of his forehead. The graceful young woman is charming.
At the same time, another exquisite carriage came out of the scholar's restaurant and turned to the capital at the crossroads.
Raindrops fall on the bluestone slabs. The carriage whirled by. Lin Zhiyun looked at the exquisite invitation in her hand. This is an invitation letter from Jiafu Xinfeng Auction House.
The maid Yu'er sat on the side, her figure was petite and exquisite, the proportions were excellent, the pink skirt pressed against the seat, outlining the round buttocks, delicate, green, and sexual-indescribable.
Yu'er held her cheeks funny. How could she not see the expectations of her young lady?
