Zhao Xu stayed in Dali Temple for half an hour, boosted morale, and left Dali Temple and went to Taixue.

Taixue and Guozijian are both in the south of the city, in the east of the royal street, and are already close to the south gate of the imperial city.

Zhao Xu left Dali Temple and went straight to Yujie.

Chen Pi followed Zhao Xu's side and said in a low voice: "Official, Su Xianggong, Zhang Xianggong will take a little time to come over, do you want to find a place to sit?" ”

Zhao Xu waved his hand and said, "Call Zhu Qianzhen." ”

It's been a busy day. ’

Chen Pi thought to himself and ordered someone to find it.

Zhao Xu walked all the way south on the royal street, walking slowly, observing the vendors on both sides.

No matter how much the court changes, the impact on the bottom is still limited, just like another world, the merchants and the people are still open and patronizing as usual.

"Gather the richness of the world in Kaifeng ......"

Zhao Xu looked at it and whispered to himself, but he was thinking in his heart that he wanted to find an opportunity to go out of Beijing to have a look.

He is actually very vague about the real situation of the Great Song Dynasty, but judging from the 'uprisings' that have occurred one after another in various places, he is not optimistic.

Not long after, Zhu Qianzhen came, and when she saw Zhao Xu, she was overjoyed, and tried her best to keep her composure, raising her hand and saying, "The villain has seen the official family." ”

Zhao Xu glanced at him and said with a smile, "Take me to have a look." ”

Zhu Qianzhen's every move will write a briefing and give it to Zhao Xu, because Zhao Xu knows that Zhu Qianzhen has chosen a good place.

Zhu Qianzhen immediately led Zhao Xu to the place he chose, which was in the center of the royal street, as long as he walked along the way.

"Official, please."

Not long after, Zhu Qianzhen came to the restaurant he bought, where there were already workers decorating, and the original appearance of the restaurant was gone.

"The owner." The craftsman inside immediately greeted him with a smile.

"You're busy, let's take a look." Zhu Qianzhen waved her hand and said.

"Oh, okay." The craftsman responded, glanced at Zhao Xu and the others, and turned to go in.

Chen Pi saw that Zhao Xu was going in, and hurriedly whispered: "Official, it's too chaotic here, don't go in." ”

"It's fine." Zhao Xu laughed, went straight in, and at first glance, he saw the counter, which had three windows. It is very high, even Zhao Xu has to step on his feet and stick his head to reach it.

"The counter has been changed, at least five, it should be low, and there are stools outside for customers to sit, and if you feel unsafe, the windows should be stronger, and more guards should be sent to ......," Zhao Xu said.

In fact, for now, Zhao Xu is not worried about someone coming to rob him at all. Ten or twenty times cost hundreds of pounds, and there is no carriage or the like, which is really too difficult. But with the carriage, in the small Kaifeng City, it can't be hidden.

"Yes." Zhu Qianzhen hurriedly responded.

Zhao Xu walked inside, Chen Pi and a bunch of guards were restless and followed vigilantly.

"There's a security gate here, so it's easy to get out and hard to get in. This is the counting room, the accounting room ......"

"The treasury should be underground, as big as possible ......"

"As for the method of counting, I will teach you, find some young people around fifteen or sixteen years old, regardless of gender, and train them well......"

"To expand the ticket number to the whole country, talent is the most important, and we must be cautious ......"

Zhu Qianzhen listened carefully, remembered, and looked respectful.

It was not a little strange to see the busy craftsmen around. At a glance, it can be seen that this young man who seems to be dressed ordinarily, but in fact has a special temperament, is the owner of their employer.

But they all pretended not to see it and did things honestly.

Zhao Xu looked at the ticket number that had just appeared, and was faintly excited in his heart, if it really developed, the effect would be unimaginable!

Zhu Qianzhen stood aside, saw Zhao Xu's face full of longing, and said with a smile: "Official, about the name of the ticket number, how many villains have drafted, can you listen to it?" ”

Zhao Xu looked at him and said, "Let's talk about it." ”

Zhu Qianzhen bowed, paused again, and said, "Wantong Qianzhuang, Da Song ticket number, Wanquan Qianzhuang." ”

Zhao Xu looked at Zhu Qianzhen and wanted to laugh in his heart.

He called many names on the 'military reform', and was asked to change it back by General Xu and Zhang Ji, this Zhu Qianzhen probably didn't like it very much or didn't understand the meaning of the ticket number, so he used one ticket number and two money houses.

On the 'military reform', Zhao Xu can be considerate of General Xu and Zhang Qi's good intentions, but when it comes to the ticket number, Zhao Xu decided to stick to his opinion and said: "The royal ticket number is so decided." ”

"Royal Ticket Number ......"

Zhu Qianzhen chewed, and hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Yes, the villain wrote it down." ”

With the word 'royal', many things can be unimpeded and save a lot of trouble!

Chen Pi quietly walked to Zhao Xu's side and said in a low voice: "Su Xianggong, Zhang Xianggong is here." ”

Zhao Xu snorted, looked at Zhu Qianzhen and said with a smile: "Plaque, I will ask Su Xianggong to write it personally, and you will decorate this place first." ”

"Yes." Zhu Qianzhen bowed.

Zhao Xu took another look, and when he got out of the restaurant, he saw Su Song, and Zhang Duan was already standing outside.

The two of them looked at this place with different expressions, and there seemed to be some confusion in their eyes.

Zhao Xu pressed his hand, stopped them from saluting, and said, "Let's go, go to Guozijian and take a look at Taixue." ”

Su Song and Zhang Dian still didn't know what Zhao Xu called them out of the palace for, but it was certainly not as simple as learning too much.

The two followed Zhao Xu and walked south along the royal street.

Su Song is a master of silence, Zhang Dian is not a person who talks a lot, Zhao Xu is even more so, there is nothing to do, he would rather be alone in a daze.

The three of them have their own thoughts, and they are learning all the way to Taixue.

Chen Pi followed Zhao Xu's side, feeling a little strange in his heart, as if he woke up from the official family's illness, and many things became different from people.

A group of people soon came to the front of Taixue, only to see a group of young scholars surging towards the gate, holding various things in their hands, and some people threw dung at the 'Taixue' stone carvings.

It was quiet in Taixue, and the door was closed.

Zhao Xu stood up, took a deep breath, seemed to be able to smell the stench, frowned, and said, "Because of what?" ”

Su Song was already discouraged and didn't plan to pay attention to political affairs, listened silently for a moment, and said: "Now all kinds of rumors are raging outside, rumors that the political affairs hall is going to abolish the imperial examination, set up a wide academy, and Taixue is the highest institution, which angers these scholars." ”

Zhao Xu looked at the group of young people who were slamming the door, his eyes turned cold, and said, "My will didn't work either?" ”

Su Song bowed, glanced at Zhang Dan, and did not speak.

Zhang Dian stared at the group of people with a stern expression, and said, "Your Majesty, I don't think these people are all scholars. ”

Zhao Xu looked at it carefully, and did find that some people were different, their behavior and demeanor were not like those of a scholar, and the clothes they wore were even more indecent.

Zhao Xu nodded lightly and said, "I have read the syllabus drawn up by the Ministry of Officials, there are many problems, I will make some revisions, and I will discuss it tomorrow in the Vertical Arch Palace." Zhang Qing's family took away the Spring Exam questions? ”

Zhang Dian turned sideways to Zhao Xu, his tone was calm and firm, and said: "Your Majesty, the imperial examination emphasizes literature and suppresses martial arts, which is inconsistent with Your Majesty's strategy of strengthening the army and strengthening the country. The minister intends to pay equal attention to civil and military affairs in the imperial examination, so as to realize His Majesty's cultural and martial arts. ”

Su Song listened, the corners of his face tensed, and he sighed lightly in his heart.

The ancestral system and the ancestral law do not exist, and the emphasis on literature and military suppression set by the ancestors will also become a thing of the past.

The more Zhao Xu smiled, it was really comfortable to have a capable subordinate.

The academy must be built, and the imperial examination at the source must also be changed, as long as the imperial examination changes, then the scholars in the world must follow suit!

Zhao Xu pondered for a moment and said: "The proportion of the imperial examination is mainly literature and arithmetic, supplemented by the six arts of gentlemen. Confucianism is a national study, but it cannot be the norm for governing the country. Party struggle starts with 'academics' and falls into a power vortex, and such a thing should be avoided as much as possible in the future. Academics are academics, and government affairs are government affairs. ”

The 'old and new' party struggle, at the beginning, was an academic dispute, Wang Anshi, Sima Guang, Su Shi and others, because of their different academic views, was finally reflected in the statecraft.

This battle is still going on today.

Su Song was silent, but he was stunned, his eyes burning.

By reforming the imperial examination, he will be able to cultivate enough people to support the 'new law', and the future generations will be trained under the 'new law', who can repeat the 'new law' again!

Zhao Xu turned his head to look at Zhang Xuan, and said with a smile: "Zhang Qing's family has changed so suddenly, after the Spring Festival, I'm afraid it will be a lot of trouble." ”

Zhang Dan's expression was a little stern, and he said, "The minister wants to see what they can do!" ”

Zhao Xu glanced at the silent Su Song, turned to the chaos in front of Taixue not far away, and said, "This is the first dean of Taixue, just Shen Kuo." After the Spring Festival, the government hall announced the reform plan for the imperial examination and the establishment of academies, increasing the authority and budget of the Guozijian. It is also necessary to encourage local schools to build schools, from the north to the south, and gradually promote ......"

After Zhao Xu finished speaking, Zhang Duan raised his hand and said, "The minister has the order." ”

Zhao Xu was just about to speak, when he suddenly saw an acquaintance come out of Taixue, pointed with his finger, and said, "Is that Xu Xinglong?" ”

Xu Xinglong is the student who debated with Cai Jing in front of the first teahouse about the 'abolition of the imperial examination'.

Su Song, Zhang Dian and others looked up, only to see Xu Xinglong coming out of Taixue, single-handedly, and having a fierce debate with the group of scholars outside.

But not long after, Xu Xinglong was caught off guard and was splashed with dung, and a crowd of people surrounded him and scolded.

"Whew! Are you a reader? The court is traitorous and does all kinds of evil, and you actually argue for them! ”

"Aren't you against the abolition of the imperial examination? What did I do later! ”

"I think you are a lackey in order to make a fool of yourself, and he promised you what kind of official you will be after the spring!"

"Phew, bitch! I have no backbone at all, it's a shame for my generation! ”

Xu Xinglong was splashed with feces, his face was all over his face, and he couldn't open his mouth at all, so he could only blush, silent, and let these people surround him.

Fortunately, he was covered in dung, and these people couldn't beat him.

Xu Xinglong was really angry, he knew that these people would come from time to time, and they could use money to settle it before, but then their appetite became bigger and bigger, not only asking for money, but also proposing to ask for a quota for Taixue, a quota for the imperial examination, and even recommended an official from Guozijian!

Amusing! Ridiculous!

Xu Xinglong knew all this, but he couldn't do anything but be angry.

Now the court is making a pot of porridge, there are people and everything, and there is no way to cover everything! Moreover, most of the imperial court's energy was on the pilot project of Kaifeng Mansion, and Kaifeng Mansion, the Criminal Department, and the Imperial History Observatory all sent people to investigate, but in the end, it was still over.

A large group of people surrounded Xu Xinglong, as if they wanted to use him as a punching bag, and smashed everything at him.

"Even if the dog emperor comes, we are not afraid!"

I don't know who suddenly yelled, and suddenly kicked Xu Xinglong down, and then a large group of people surrounded him and kicked him desperately.

Su Song, Zhang Dian and the others listened, their faces changed suddenly, and their faces were shocked.

Has this group of people swelled to such an extent that they openly insult the official family?

Su Song knocked on his crutches and said angrily; "The Ministry of Punishment has arrested all these people. It's a test-taker, all of them are dismissed, no, a heavy sentence! Send a message to Kaifeng Mansion, Kaifeng Mansion is too messy, it's time to clean it up! ”

Su Song, Zhang Dian naturally brought someone when he went out, and if the guards were listening, he had to answer the order.

Zhao Xu looked at Xu Xinglong, raised his hand, stopped the guard, and was a little angry in his heart, and said lightly: "Kaifeng Mansion should indeed be cleaned up, not only Kaifeng City, but also Kaifeng Mansion, the Criminal Department, and the Yushitai, and clean up the entire Kaifeng Mansion. Zhang Xianggong, you can keep an eye on this matter. ”

Zhang Dan's expression became more and more stern, and he raised his hand and said, "The minister's order!" ”
