Chapter 298: Lakeside Academy Opens (Part I)
More than 200 test papers were reviewed by Zhu Yunwen and other four people, and in the end, less than a dozen people were selected.
Being able to participate in this examination shows that the students themselves are elites, some of them are 'inheritable' in the eyes of the powerful people in Nanjing, and some are local prodigies who enjoy a good reputation.
But in the sand panning for gold, hundreds of geniuses only selected a dozen demons.
"Being able to calm down and look at problems is not what a child should be able to do."
Yang Shiqi admired from the bottom of his heart, and kept sighing: "The minister has never believed in the history books, how could Gan Luo become the secretary of the Qin State at the age of twelve, and he was in charge of the national affairs with LΓΌ Buwei, and handed over the affairs of a country to a child, isn't it a joke?"
Now the minister believes it, the prodigy and prodigy, if it is very understandable, the minister is ashamed of himself, far worse. β
"These two questions, last year's top three jinshi, how many people can do it."
Zhu Yunwen smiled, and watched the selected dozen or so test papers back and forth, and the more he looked at it, the happier he became.
"Jin Shi and the first, can be awarded the post of county order, if this is the case, these children can go down to the local county order."
Seeing Yang Shiqi's shocked face, Zhu Yunwen hurriedly waved his hand: "I definitely don't plan to let these children go to the place to practice, my Ming Dynasty is not the Qin State more than a thousand years ago, no matter how smart the children are, how can they deal with those trivial and complicated local trivial matters." β
Now Yang Shiqi is down-to-earth, the emperor has a lot of moths, he is really afraid that Zhu Yunwen will have a convulsion in his brain, and give this group of prodigies a county to practice.
Then it will make a mess in the place, will he, the first assistant, be punished or not punished at that time?
"How does Your Majesty plan to teach these children?"
Education is not a day's work, especially teaching prodigies, Yang Shiqi has no experience, so he asked: "How should this lesson be formulated?" β
Which to teach and how to teach are the biggest questions facing the four monarchs and ministers.
Zhu Yunwen thought for a while and said: "Education depends on textbooks, and what this textbook teaches is exactly the same, let's leave the textbook to teach, look at these children's articles, their personalities are different, they look at problems from different angles, and they have different ideas for the implementation of policies."
If we set a hard standard to teach, then this group of prodigies will be finished, is it possible, give them a book on the instructions for the arrival of the county order?
Teach them according to their aptitude, take one step at a time, let them maintain their current character, and on the road of future growth, they will encounter a lot of things and changes, what we have to do is to guide them, rather than dragging them to a certain road. β
After sorting out the test questions of these children, Zhu Yunwen basically got the general situation of this group of children, out of a total of 17 children, 13 were from Nanjing, and only 4 of the more than 100 people recommended by the local government stayed, which can be said to be a serious imbalance.
"Accept the unfairness of unequal sources of knowledge."
Zhu Yunwen shook his head lightly, and then let go of these feelings: "Send those who have been laid off back safely according to their hometowns, and settle their food and lodging with those left." β
And just when Zhu Yunwen and the other examiners got together to discuss some future things in the school, the children who left one after another outside the school were also chatting.
"You say, which of us can pass?"
This group of children got together to chat, they were all a group of children who were half the size of the child, and the reason for the competition in the same class was that they were very familiar with each other.
But if you look closely, although this group of children is all together, there is still a clear gap between their small groups, and most of them are basically from the same province, just like Zhejiang and Jiangxi are very clearly divided.
The Zhejiang Party and the Jiangxi Party have been fighting for decades, and even with this group of children, they look at each other with disdain.
Regional disputes, this group of precocious children have long developed subconscious antagonism under the influence of their respective families.
Among these groups, the largest team is naturally the Nanjing local faction, with more than 100 people, but they are also divided into more than a dozen small circles, each with its own chat.
"Needless to say, I'm going to get by."
Yang Ji straightened his thin chest and pointed at the country quite confidently: "These two questions, at the beginning of this year, my father passed the school entrance examination. β
"Where's the house?"
"Yang Shiqi, the first assistant of my father's cabinet."
"Wow."
There was an uproar in the small circle, and many sons and brothers in brocade clothes and shirts exclaimed at Yang Ji, and many second-generation people who heard this sentence in the periphery also subconsciously gathered around, and most of them were envious and touted, which made Yang Ji inevitably look proud and look around arrogantly, but found that there were a few people in the periphery who looked indifferent, and even a little disdainful.
In Daming, who dares not to give Yang Shiqi face?
This discovery made Yang Ji's face a little unbearable, he separated the crowd around him, walked all the way to the circle in Zhejiang, and looked at Yu Qian with a disdainful expression: "Who are you, how dare you be so disdainful of the name of your father?" β
The court said that the Jiangxi Party was the Yang Party, and as Yang Shiqi's son, Yang Ji's first trouble was Zhejiang.
"Hangzhou Mansion Yu Qian."
Yu Qian didn't look at Yang Ji at all, and spit out his name indifferently.
"Who's in the house?"
The self-proclaimed cultured porcelain, doing such a rough thing, Yang Ji will never touch Yu Qian, the crockpot in his eyes.
At this time, of course, you have to fight for your father.
"No official or position."
Hearing that it was Bai Ding, Yang Ji couldn't control his little temper anymore, and stretched out his hand to push Yu Qian: "Who should I be, Qianshou, you are so bold that you dare to be disrespectful to your father, and immediately apologize to me." β
"Relying on the whiskers to slap the horse and steal the position of the first assistant, do you still need someone to provide for him!"
was pushed, Yu Qian also lost his temper, and glared at Yang Ji angrily with his chest.
"Hey, still not convinced?"
The corners of Yang Ji's mouth were raised, his right hand was raised, and his fingers were tapped a few times on Yu Qian's chest: "What's the matter, after studying for a few years and relying on gifts to mix up the qualifications to come to Nanjing to study, I don't know how thick the sky is?" β
This kung fu, Yang Ji's side of many small followers also came over, gossiping began to ridicule Yu Qianlai, the other children of the entire Zhejiang faction have the heart to help, but the number of people on this side is only more than ten people, where is there a lot of people on Yang Ji's side, after all, the court has been the Jiangxi party dominance in the past few years, naturally most of the children who participated in the examination this time are also from Jiangxi, and the enemy is outnumbered, so it is inevitable that this group of children will hesitate and be timid.
Seeing that Yang Ji's push was getting heavier and heavier, Yu Qian, who was rushing back, stood up and grabbed Yang Ji's wrist.
"Apologize."
"Who are you, you? Dare to meddle with my business? β
In the era when there was no TV, out of low profile, Zhu Wenkui did not have the identity token of the Zongren Mansion hanging on his waist, and this Yang Ji naturally did not know him.
Not to mention Yang Ji, even if there are hundreds of officials in the Manchu Dynasty, how many people have seen Zhu Wenkui, the eldest prince?
Is the harem a place where foreign ministers can enter?
And Zhu Wenkui stayed in the prairie for a few months, and immediately ran around, exposed to the wind and sun, and his complexion was not as fair and delicate as this group of noble sons, and no one could associate such a small black and thin man with the eldest son of the Ming Emperor, who was almost short of a prince's title.
"I told you to apologize."
Zhu Wenkui is much tougher than this Yang Ji, so the latter cried out again and again.
"Yang Shiqi, the first assistant of my father's cabinet."
"Apologies!"
"Yang Shiqi, the first assistant of my father's cabinet!"
His eyes were cold, and the force used in Zhu Wenkui's hand was a little bigger again, and then Yang Ji suddenly screamed.
"Wrong! I was wrong! β
Letting go of his hand, Zhu Wenkui snorted coldly: "The son is a father, what kind of ability is it, for the sake of the elder Ge's face, I will let you go today." β
Holding his wrist, Yang Ji was sweating profusely, staring at Zhu Wenkui viciously, gritting his teeth: "Good boy, you still know that my father is an elder, you wait, I can't spare you." β
Zhu Wenkui didn't bother to take care of him, turned his head to look at Yu Qian: "Are you okay?" β
Yu Qian was still so indifferent, slapped his shoulder that had just been pushed by Yang Ji, and thanked him softly: "It's okay, thank you brother Tai for helping." β
Seeing that the two of them didn't even pay attention to themselves, Yang Ji was furious, and beckoned his followers to plan to get this scene back, and then saw a bunch of hulala and a bunch of sons and brothers who ignored him surrounded Zhu Wenkui.
It's all from the clan family's faction.
Yang Ji's expression suddenly became cloudy, and he had a feeling that he had kicked the iron plate!
But the prince of the whole Ming Dynasty, in addition to Yan Wangdi, the chief of the General Staff, and Liao Wangzhi, the leader of the Imperial Chamber of Commerce, which prince of the prince's mansion dares not to give his father Yang Shiqi face?
He needs to analyze Zhu Wenkui's identity.
There is no need for his little head to analyze, and a little eunuch came out of the school: "I will give an edict to inform the admission list for this exam." β
At the moment of business, Yang Ji had no choice but to stomp his foot in hatred and shift his attention to this eunuch.
"Remember to answer the name called."
The little eunuch coughed lightly, and his shrill voice sounded in the ears of every child who was taking the exam: "First place, Hangzhou Mansion, Zhejiang, Yu Qian!" β
Everyone was in an uproar, but they didn't expect that the first place would fall to Zhejiang, and Jiangxi was suddenly angry.
And Yang Ji and the others changed their expressions even more, and they turned their heads to look at Yu Qian.
Could it be him?
Yang Ji's fists, which were already clenched due to nervousness, were clenched tighter by three points this time.
"The students are here!"
Yu Qian, who was named the 'champion', didn't have much excitement, he still looked like he was not surprised, as if everything was so taken for granted.
"Second place, Yang Ji, Ji'an Prefecture, Jiangxi."
Chess is one move away.
can be ranked second, if it is a different person to be the head armor, then Yang Ji will definitely be able to laugh happily three times, but now, he feels that he is very aggrieved by the second deserved, so he replied unhappily: "The student is here." β
"Third place: Wang and Zhun of Yuyao Mansion, Zhejiang."
Another exclamation, this time in the examination, Zhejiang is better than Jiangxi.
"Fourth place, Nanzhili Fengyang Mansion, Zhu Wenkui!"
The name silenced the audience, and all the chattering was gone.
"The students are here."
Zhu Wenkui stood up and answered, and then he turned his head to look at Yang Ji, just in time to meet the frightened look cast by the latter.
Fengyang Mansion, Wenkui?
The eldest son of the emperor!
Yang Ji only felt that his hands and feet were cold, and a cool breath rushed straight to the heavenly spirit from his back heels.
"Yang Shiqi, the first assistant of my father's cabinet."
"Who is in your house?"
Where do people have a house, they are palaces, Qianqing Palace!
Fight dad, do you win by fighting yourself?
Thinking that he would never let go of what he said just now, Yang Ji's legs were weak, and he sat on the ground with his buttocks.
It's over, it's all over.
In addition to Yang Ji's miserable expression, even Yu Qian, who was beside Zhu Wenkui, was also stunned, glanced at Zhu Wenkui slightly, and then hugged his fists and said: "The student has thanked His Royal Highness the Great Prince for his help." β
"Brother Yu is polite."
Zhu Wenkui hurriedly returned the salute: "When I took the exam earlier, my father said that there was no monarch and father here, and I was naturally the same as all my classmates. β
After the two of them finished greeting, the little eunuch on the steps glanced at Zhu Wenkui and saw that Zhu Wenkui had no intention of continuing to talk before he began to roll call one after another.
"A total of seventeen people were admitted to this examination, and those who were not named left here in accordance with the order, although the admitteds were thanked by our family."
With Yu Qian as the leader, the sixteen people began to silently raise their legs and march towards the Ming Hall, only Yang Ji was still sitting on the ground and did not move.
My legs are weak, and I can't stand up.
"Why don't you help Yang Gongzi enter the court?"
The little eunuch still has eyes, and he can see all the small actions just now, that is, he knows that there must be a conflict and dispute between Yang Ji and Zhu Wenkui, so he is also carrying a gun and a stick when he speaks.
"Don't let Yang Gongzi catch a cold on the ground, his Ling Zun is the first assistant pavilion elder of our Ming Dynasty."
Yang Ji, who was stabbed by this sentence, bounced up from the ground, and he didn't care about his weak legs, stumbled, and ran into the Ming Hall in embarrassment.
This kung fu, the first sixteen students who entered the school all stood up, and when he came in, he looked particularly abrupt and rude, which made Yang Shiqi, who was talking and laughing with Zhu Yunwen in the high position, instantly angry.
"Presumptuous, the emperor lost his manners, what kind of system."
After speaking, Yang Shiqi was about to kneel when he left his seat, but was stopped by Zhu Yunwen raising his hand. I had to bow down and arch my hand: "This is the minister's dog Ziji, and the number of courtesies is the minister's godson, please ask Your Majesty to surrender to the minister." β
According to the law, it is generally a beating staff, no matter how light the staff is, it is not something that a child can hold.
So Yang Shiqi, who is a father, has to take it over.
Zhu Yunwen didn't think it was wrong, and waved his hand and said: "It's just a child, don't be like this, Ling Gongzi's face is pale, his steps are weak and weak, Yang Ji, are you sick?" β
Yang Shiqi also turned his head and scolded: "Father Jun asked you, are you deaf?" β
Yang Ji knelt on the ground with cold hands and feet, looked up, and had the intention of borrowing the slope to get off the donkey, but as soon as he saw Zhu Wenkui, who was looking back at him not far away, he gritted his teeth and reported truthfully, and smashed his head on the ground: "The monarch is good, the student is a capital crime, and he just collided with His Royal Highness the Great Prince outside the mansion." β
said that, he didn't dare to hide it, and he reported it out.
Yang Shiqi was also startled, and just as he was about to speak, he found that Zhu Yunwen chuckled.
"What a big deal I should be, it's just a small friction between the children, okay, get up and go back to your own place, and this matter will be revealed."
"Your Majesty, this dog collides ......"
"What rush?"
Zhu Yunwen raised his hand: "I have said it, this is a school, not a court, there is no emperor and prince, only teachers and students, they are all students, and their identities are equal, how can we talk about the crime of rude collision?" β
Yang Shiqi relaxed at this time, he knew that as long as the emperor opened this mouth, it meant that this matter was really not taken seriously in the emperor's heart.
So he turned around and bowed to Zhu Wenkui: "Treat the dog to make amends to His Royal Highness." β
The latter avoided returning the courtesy: "The old man is serious, but the students don't dare." β
After this back and forth hypocrisy, even if the so-called conflict was completely overturned, Zhu Yunwen said: "Okay, let's get down to business." β
Yang Ji raised his head, met his father's eyes, immediately got up from the ground, hid at the end of the crowd with low eyebrows, and the seventeen children all stood silently and solemnly, waiting for Zhu Yunwen's instructions.
"I am very happy to see you, because these two exam questions are not possible for ordinary Jinshi students, and you have done it, you can be called my Ming prodigy, I hope you can make persistent efforts, do not be arrogant and complacent, in the future, you can study hard after entering the school, and finish as soon as possible to work for my Ming Jiangshan Society."
"Obey the Father's Commandment."
A group of children are extremely mature and bow, as if their parents were above the court.
"In that case, the church will be held in three days, and everyone will go back to their homes to prepare."
(I wish you all a happy Dragon Boat Festival, there is something delayed until now, look at Haihan.) οΌ
