Chapter 202: The Birth of a New Scholar

In the early years of the dynasty, the school rules were extremely strict, which contrasted with the political atmosphere of high-pressure and suppression. After the scholar is admitted to the middle school entrance examination, he must study intensively in school, and if he oversteps the slightest, he will be punished, and he will be severely punished by deprivation of merit and fame or even hard labor.

But now, the rules on paper are still the same rules, but the actual rules are not that rules, at least in terms of learning mode, a little more diverse, a little more flexible. For example, you don't need to report to school every day, for example, you can apply for a study trip

For a student from a poor background like Fang Yingwu, the learning effect of staying in school is better, after all, the learning resources in the school, from teachers to books, are not comparable to the four walls of a poor family. But for the children of large families, it depends on the specific situation.

This time Fang Yingwu was going to study in the county, and Sister Lan had a rare firm decision, she must follow Fang Yingwu to the county seat, and refused to stay at home alone. Fang Yingwu had to agree, and after he went to the county seat to find a place to live first, he would take Sister Lan over.

didn't mention it, but said that Fang Yingwu rested at home for two days, and then officially went to the county school, and there was absolutely no need to worry about survival.

As the highest, the best, and the most elite student of the three levels of Xiashan, Enrichment, and Attached School, he has food to receive every month, and there is also a single school house to live in. It's just that if you want to live with Sister Lan, it's inconvenient, and you have to slowly find another place to live.

The new Catholic Mr. Meng was also a "wonderful person", and as soon as Fang Yingwu entered the school, he immediately began to announce or spread two pieces of news with great fanfare.

The news is that the outstanding scholar model, the student who directly graduated from the children's examination, and the "child of other people's family" Fang Yingwu has been enrolled! Another piece of news is that the county school is ready for the year test!

The two news were mixed together and attracted the attention of Shilin in this county. Needless to say, the annual exam, especially in the context of the township exam next year. There is no doubt about the importance of the annual exam.

Because the number of places in the township examination in the province is limited, and the biggest role of the county school year examination is to top the grade. Then decide the candidates to participate in the township examination according to the rank.

For every self-motivated talent, the annual examination is the qualification examination for fame. It's time for the annual exam. The school was immediately lively.

As for Fang Yingwu's return, although it is not a big deal, it also makes many people worry about it. More than a year ago, he was suddenly directly named as a member of the board of directors from a child, instead of starting from a low level step by step, which has made many people look sideways. At that time, many old scholars were eyeing the quota of the students, but they were unexpectedly monopolized by Fang Yingwu.

Then after this person entered the school, he first taught the old scholar a lesson, and then reprimanded all his friends, and he flashed like a meteor, and it is said that he went out to play and go freely - this year, the information is really underdeveloped, even Wang Zhixian is also because he went to Beijing to report on his work before he heard about the deeds of the other party.

All in all. Many people, especially those who were encircled by their families to study, had mixed feelings about their classmates, and couldn't help but have the idea of seeing this person in Zaijian.

When Fang Yingwu heard Meng's teachings, he smiled at them, everyone has their own aspirations, can he still stop Meng's teachings from recruiting students?

It is said that the most intuitive consequence of the spread of these two news is that many students have returned to the county one after another to study, and the closer they are, the sooner they are.

For example, Wu Sui and Wu Gongzi, who went to school in the same case as Fang Yingwu, and Xu Huai, an old scholar who is almost middle-aged. As for Fang Yingwu's friends Hong and Xiang, it is estimated that they will come later, after all, their home is located in the easternmost part of the county. The distance is farther.

After Wu Gongzi saw the co-defendant who ruined the glory of his "Little Sanyuan", he still snorted coldly habitually and proudly, but there was no superfluous action.

For Wu Gongzi, who has the expectations of the county's first imperial examination family and has great ambitions, Fang Yingwu is a thing of the past even if he is unhappy. There's no need to dwell on it. Now he wants to look ahead, and the future township test and meeting test are his stage.

But in the heart of Xu Huai, an old scholar, this resentment has not been resolved. At the beginning, he tried to get a member of the house. angrily bullied the new Fang Yingwu, but unexpectedly was rectified by Fang Yingwu. asked him to tamper with Shang Xianggong's words indiscriminately. Needless to say, it brought a lot of panic to the family at that time. It's really embarrassing.

Now that he has returned to the county school after a year, Xu Huai always feels that his classmates are not as respectful of him as before, and the old-timers' shelves are almost impossible to put out - this is all Fang Yingwu's fault.

Whoever falls from where he gets up from there, so Xu Xueba has to find a place from Fang Yingwu

School life is very monotonous, nothing more than lectures, revisions, essays and so on. Among them, the first day of each decade is the composition time, which is written by the teachings, the students write and answer the questions, and then there is the commentary and observation, which is also a kind of mock exam.

Tomorrow is the day of composition, and at this moment, all the students in Minglun Hall are chatting in groups. Xu Huai appeared in front of Fang Yingwu under the window where he lived alone, and greeted him without smiling: "I haven't seen you for many years, how is classmate Fang?" ”

Fang Yingwu raised his head, glanced at the other party lightly, and replied, "Thank you Senior Xu for your concern." ”

Xu Huai immediately said very explicitly: "Presumably, classmate Fang has returned from a study tour and has improved in his art industry, can you try it with me tomorrow?" ”

Fang Yingwu sighed, "Senior Xu, you are so old, are you forty?" Why are you still so naΓ―ve, no wonder you haven't grown up for many years, you can only spend time in the county to learn, and you can get a reputation for being a scholar, it's a pity for you! ”

The people around couldn't help but chuckle in a low voice, Xu Huai raised his head viciously and looked around, suppressing the laughter. He is an old man who has been a county school boy for many years, and others can't offend him for a few jokes.

Xu Huai said excitedly: "I sincerely ask for study, don't you look down on classmate Fang?" Or is it something else? It's just a play on words, what scruples does classmate Fang have? ”

It's really a clumsy play, Fang Yingwu frowned, and said, "Whatever." ”

Other people in the county school are generally unconvinced by their newcomers, and Xu Huai is not the only scholar. If you don't get rid of the knocking tiger in front of you, maybe someone else will disturb your peace.

The next day, Meng Jiaoyu entered the Minglun Hall, and after the teachers and students saw the ceremony, Meng Jiaoyu said: "I will not write today. Practice questioning. ”

Of course, in the imperial examination, the eight-strand essay is emphasized, although there are policy subjects. But at best, it is only a reference and is not of decisive significance.

However, the question always has to be practiced symbolically. can write a few strokes randomly, but you can't go to the examination room to hand in the blank paper in the policy subject. Therefore, it is not surprising that the beings are slightly surprised.

Xu Huai glanced at Fang Yingwu confidently and began to study ink. Among the three items of eight-strand art, strategy, and poetry, this is what he is most sure of, and it is also the advantage of the big family.

For example, in their Shufu Xu family, there is an elder from the official to the third grade, Zhishi, who often explains what he has seen and heard in the clan study. This kind of insight is not possessed by poor students, so poor students often write strategies and theories not as well as the descendants of official eunuchs. It can only be copied from the Four Books and the Five Classics.

And most importantly, Xu Huai already knows today's topic and is prepared. The reason is very simple, Meng Jiaoyu accepted his gift. All aspects can be described as foolproof, Xu Huai really can't think of any reason why he can't win.

Of course, Xu Xueba is not so naΓ―ve that he thinks he can overwhelm Fang Yingwu after winning a game, and a word game often doesn't mean anything.

But what if it's two, three, and every game? Today is just the beginning, and the best is yet to come.

In Xu Xueba's reverie, Meng Jiaoyu came up with the topic: "Today's topic is to deal with the border strategy of the northern captives." ”

Bian Cefang was stunned. Is this too coincidental? In fact, it is not a coincidence, side affairs have been the top priority from the beginning of the country, and the natural and hot side policy is a hot topic in various policy questions, which is not unusual.

This is a critical period for the upcoming annual examination. All the students in the county school did not dare to slack off, and they began to write articles one after another, and for a while, dozens of pens in the hall danced together.

Over there. Xu Xueba has a bamboo in his chest, and his pen is like a god. I don't know how long it took. wrote a 3,000-word essay, and the whole process was written in one go without adding points. It's wonderful.

Throwing down the pen in his hand, Xu Huai looked at the prescription not far away. But he saw that Fang Yingwu was in a daze on a blank piece of paper, and he didn't write a word after a while.

Can't you write it? Or are you afraid that you won't be able to write well and deliberately hide it? Xu Huai thought about it, and there were only these two possibilities. couldn't help but laugh and said, "Classmate Fang, why isn't there some ink on the paper?" Otherwise, in today's competition, I will not be able to win. ”

Sectarian Meng, who was sitting on it, also discovered Fang Yingwu's abnormality, and deliberately didn't write a word, could it be that he was despising him as an instructor? Thinking of this, Meng Jiaoyu's face gradually became stern, and he got up and picked up the ring ruler, ready to reprimand Fang Yingwu.

Hong and Xiang haven't arrived at school yet, so Fang Yingwu doesn't have any friends in Minglun Hall, and no one comes out to explain him. Xu Huai, who is not pleasing to the eye because Fang Yingwu became a member of the restaurant at a young age, is even more waiting to see a good show.

Fang Yingwu was very calm, as if it was none of his business. At this moment, suddenly a servant wearing a green cloth robe and a winged flat hat flashed at the door of Minglun Hall, and arched his hand to Meng Jiaoyu: "Old man! The county lord urgently summoned Fang Yingwu Fang Xiucai! ”

The county respects the party? Sectarian Meng was stunned when he heard this, and put on the instructor's shelf and said: "Now is the time for study, and the county is no bigger than the sage book. ”

The official smiled, "The little one didn't understand what he said. In fact, it was from the Beijing division to the county government to ask for advice, and the matter was related to side affairs, and the edict asked Fang Xiucai's opinion by name, and the old gentleman should not delay. ”

There was an immediate uproar in the hall, if everyone's ears were not mistaken, even the imperial court that was high in the sky and far away in Beijing would have to find Fang Yingwu to ask Bian Ce? What's going on?

Fang Yingwu got up, flicked the dust lightly, and said to Meng Jiaoyu: "It's not that the student doesn't respect Mr., but the side policies written by the student are all military secrets, and it is inconvenient for you to read them." Leave! ”

A group of classmates watched Fang Yingwu disappear outside the door, only to feel that the unfathomable height and depth and the mountains looked up. Even the imperial court had to send an edict to ask him for his opinion, what kind of treatment is this? At least at the level of Zhishi Shangshu?

The original emotions quietly dissipated, and only self-shame remained. It's no wonder that Fang is not as keen on social outing and praising each other as others, but he just thinks that this person is a bit high-minded.

Now I know that although classmate Fang and them are the same county students, they are far from the same realm, his journey is the sea of stars, so Fang Yingwu and these classmates, there is really nothing to talk about at present, and they have to wait for them to go up a few floors before they are worthy of a common language.

Someone else concluded: "Xu Huai is useless, he, a scholar, is going to be replaced by classmate Fang." (To be continued......)
