In April, Li Wanhan and Fu Yunze did not see each other for four months. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Li Wanhan feels that the years are quiet, and I am very well-behaved. The roots of the ears were much clearer, and an impulsive heart gradually became calmer.

During the period when Li Wanhan was immersed in preparing for the exam, Li Guanhai suddenly quit school and participated in the Guozi Scholarship. After Ms. Lin Xiuru popularized science for her, she knew ignorantly that Guozi was not going to school to be a teacher. It is a nine-grade clerical job. and Lin Zhizi is hanging.

Then two days later, Li Wanhan heard that Li Guanhai quit his job as a student assistant and became an official called the secretary.

is another official position that Li Wanhan has never heard of, Ms. Lin Xiuru did not explain to her this time, only complained: "What is Tingyu doing with this kid." No matter how bad Guozi's education is, he is still a nine-grade, and everyone is going up, why is he still going downhill. ”

"What are the priests, what are they doing?" Li Wanhan asked.

"The petty officials who have not entered the stream have no taste." Lin Xiuru said angrily: "The secretary is the official who is responsible for handling the documents, and the main clerk in the torture room and household room is called the secretary."

Li Wanhan's ears are pointy, capturing the word "household".

What is a house, and is it the same as a house? Is this the official who counts the population classics, or the official who is in charge of the money?

Li Wanhan took the time to learn about the official system of the Great Qi Dynasty.

It turned out that there was still a large-scale examination similar to the imperial examination in the Daqi Dynasty, called the Diankao. Egret Academy and Xishan Academy are another way to appoint officials in addition to the official examination. The students of Bailu and Xishan can be recommended as officials, and Bailu Academy can be recommended as officials of the highest five grades. The West Mountain is blocked below the sixth grade.

In other words, it is still a state institution that teaches and distributes work.

Li Wanhan finally understood why the girls who could study in these two academies were so popular with the family. I finally understand why in these two schools, the weak prevention of male and female students is almost non-existent.

Just ask me, if most of the officials in the court are your former classmates. In addition to your acquaintance with these men, your virtuous helpers are also acquainted with these men and their wives. What a terrible human circle this is.

There are no six people between people, in other words, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are all your acquaintances. Either your acquaintance's father, or your own father and uncle.

A circle of elites that is almost monopolized, Li Wanhan is shocked when he thinks about it.

Can Egret Academy be compared with the examination and the classic examination? Li Wanhan doesn't want to say which is better or worse, in general, the examination of Egret Academy is more inclined to the comprehensive ability test, and the classic examination is the traditional eight-strand essay to put it mildly. The men's examination of Egret Academy can be compared with a single policy.

But if you want to talk about the degree of cruelty, it is obvious that the dictionary examination is more cruel, and there are too many things to gamble on in the dictionary examination. It's not like the Egret Academy exam, as long as you work hard, you will get results, even if you fail this course, you still have the next door to make up for it. The classic exam can only fight strength, luck, and examiner taste.

There are thousands of people and thousands of faces in articles, maybe the examiner's words are inappropriate, and a scholar's more than ten years of hard work will be in vain. It's cruel.

Moreover, it is like this that they have stood out through many hardships, except for the three tripod armors that can rise to the top, there are many others who have to climb from the end of the official. Many people will never be able to touch the seat of the fifth grade in their lives, and many students of Egret Academy have already sat in the position that many people dream of as soon as they graduate.

The duration of the school is three to ten years.

In other words, a man must study for at least three years before he is eligible to be promoted. Those who have more than 10 years will be forced to graduate. During this time, you can stay at the school and wait for the opportunity to live in the school. If you are not satisfied with the recommended position, you can also resign and come back and wait for the opportunity again.

Li Wanhan still remembered that Li Wanmu told her that the housing in Egret Academy was very tight, and Li Qingxu was forced to live in the mountains. At that time, she couldn't believe that such a big Egret Academy, which almost encircled half of Xu Heshan's Egret Academy, would not be able to live.

With such an in-depth understanding, Li Wanhan understood in seconds.

Although the Egret Academy has never restricted the reference of civilians, the Egret Academy is destined to be only the reference of the children of the powerful and wealthy.

Not to mention piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, equestrian dance, which require a lot of time and money to develop.

Many people can't afford to pay the registration fee of more than 100 taels of silver for each subject of Bailu Academy, and a total of eight subjects are examined, nearly 1,000 silver. What can ordinary people afford?

Li Wanhan was in a complicated mood, and suddenly thought of something: "Where did the big brother get the money to sign up in the first place?" ”

Because of the need to check the family age of the students, as well as a list of exam arrangements, the exams of Egret Academy are registered one year in advance, and they are paid in full, so they will not owe money.

But where did the nine-year-old Li Tingyu get so much money, it couldn't have been given by Aunt Meng, right?

"Isn't it?" Lin Xiuru said: "Otherwise, Hou Ye Wei would be able to bite our family at that time." It's nothing more than that we think we're privately funding your big brother. Heaven and earth conscience, but your eldest brother has got the red paper, and I know that he went to the exam..."

If you're not convinced, it's really amazing.

After five years, Li Wanhan once again realized the strength of Li Tingyu. He did an impossible thing so well on his own. She couldn't imagine how Li Tingyu studied while working.

Oh, no. This is not modern, there is no part-time work to do. Even if there were, I wouldn't let a child of a few years old do it.

What's more, in this era when ten taels can make an ordinary family chew for a whole year, where does Li Tingyu earn a thousand taels.

Li Zhizhen's monthly income is only 200 taels, plus all kinds of grain and rice cloth, converted into money, and it is less than 400 taels a month.

When Li Guanhai came back again, he found that Li Wanhan was a little courteous to him, he squinted his eyes and asked vigilantly: "Hanhan, what are you doing again." ”

"No, I don't. I just suddenly feel that you are too respectable, too worthy of my admiration, big brother! Li Wanhan's eyes lit up and said sincerely.

Li Guanhai was terrified, and the cold hairs on his back stood up: "Hanhan, tell the eldest brother directly what you want to do, you don't have to do it." ”

"I didn't want to do anything." Li Wanhan was inexplicable.

Li Guanhai took a step back.

"I really didn't want to do anything."

Li Guanhai took a few steps back silently, "I'll go see Aunt Meng." "Deserted and fled.

"Big brother. Eh, big brother, don't go, why are you in such a hurry today. Li Wanhan was confused.

Li Guanhai ran faster and faster when he heard this, and his steps were like flying. It wasn't until he walked far out of the gate of Loei that he noticed that his back was still stiff, and he slowly relaxed his shoulders.

He had the feeling of escaping and ascending to heaven.
