In fact, the Ming Dynasty has always had two national eunuchs.

In the early years, Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, initially decided Jinling, built a school building at the foot of Jiming Mountain, re-established the Guozijian, and then placed another Zhongdu Guozijian in his hometown Fengyang, and the last years of Hongwu were canceled and returned to the Kyoto Guozijian.

During the Yongle period, Zhu Di first changed the name of Beiping County School to Guozijian, and then moved the capital, leaving Nanjing Guozijian.

In the early middle and early Ming Dynasty, Guozijian has always been an extremely important part of the civil official system, from here to the examination of the Jinshi do not know the ordinary, even if there is no Jinshi, directly as a prisoner There are many people, and there are those who do the Great Jiuqing.

For example, Tie Xuan, a famous minister who made Ming Chengzu Zhu Di thunderous but helpless, was born in Guozijian, but since the opening of routine prisons for decades, Guozijian is not as good as before, originally selected the best scholars from all over the world, but now you can enter by paying money......

But after more than ten years of Xu Jie's appointment as the Guozi's sacrificial wine, the atmosphere has changed again...... In fact, this is the mainstream idea of the DPRK and China, not the idea of Qian Yuan.

The atmosphere of Guozijian has changed in recent years, mainly because the famous Yang Jisheng impeached Yan Song and was finally unjustly killed in Zhao Prison...... Although it is claimed to be a death of illness to the outside world, everyone in the DPRK and China knows that it is Yan Song's hand.

For this reason, the then Guozi priest wine Wang Cai was furious and broke off relations with fellow villager Yan Song, and was finally demoted and returned to his hometown, and his successor was Wang Cai's same year, Jiajing 20 years champion, and Shen Kun of Huai'an in the south.

"The juniors meet Shizhou Gong."

More than a dozen people bowed down at the same time, Shen Kun, who was in his fifties, had slightly white hair, a tall figure, a red face, and waved his hand with a smile, "No need to be polite." ”

Shen Kun's gaze first fell on Zhu Dashou, Tao Dalin, and Xu Wei at the front, and then on the young Xian Yan's face, and finally saw Qian Yuan standing in the crowd, not moving forward.

"This is Huating Qian Zhancai?"

"Junior, Qian Yuan, meet Shizhou Gong." Qian Yuan came out of the crowd.

"A good disciple with Brother Ji." Shen Kun shook his head, "The old man has also read the exam papers of your palace exam, no matter what else, that pen ......"

Xia Shi, who is also from Huating, couldn't help but bow his head and snicker...... Xu Wei once commented that no matter how talented he is, just looking at that pen, Qian Zhancai will definitely not be able to enter the first class, and it will be difficult for the second class, and the court will also have to be faced!

The key is that Shen Kun mentioned Ji is the same year as him, that is, Qian Yuan's teacher, Lu Shusheng, who was the first in the Jiajing 20th year examination, from the first to the second class jinshi in the examination, Lu Shusheng mainly suffered the loss of that pen, and the student Qian Yuan ...... That is, there is no top four, and the palace exam will not be lost.

Although Shen Kun is a native of Huai'an, his ancestral home is Kunshan, and his grandfather only moved to Huai'an, and he is also quite familiar with Zhejiang and Songjiang.

After chatting for a while, Shen Kun smiled and said, "It's already ready, you guys go." ”

Everyone said goodbye again, and under the guidance of the little official, Qian Yuan turned around and saw Shen Kun striding away, his back was as straight as a pine, and he didn't look like a literati.

Indeed, although Shen Kun is the champion, but he left a reputation in history, but because of martial affairs, Huai'an was invaded by the Japanese invaders, Shen Kun scattered all his family wealth to form a township Yong, and won consecutive battles.

It's a pity that within a few years, he was overthrown by the official and unjustly died in prison...... To tell the truth, after the fall of Yan Song, those science and Taoist officials were simply gods blocking and killing gods, and Buddhas blocking and killing Buddhas, even Gao Gong and Xu Jie, who were successively taken away by science and technology officials, no wonder Zhang Juzheng had that sentence after he came to power, and if the six departments were not aware of it, they would be cited by the ministers.

Today, a group of people came to Guozijian not to make a special trip to visit this Shen Kun, all the new science and technology scholars had to come to Guozijian to receive Jinshi uniforms.

"This is also ......"

Everyone looked at each other, and the dozen or so Jinshi uniforms in front of them were clean and complete in addition to the surface, and they really couldn't find more advantages.

Xu Wei was already not particular enough, took a few steps forward and picked up one, and couldn't help but immediately hold his breath, "I haven't washed it for many years......"

"I must have washed it, but look at this look...... Sun Ling said with a smile: "It's been at least thirty years, which means that at least ten people have worn it." ”

"Wear it once, then send it back and throw it in the back room until three years later, take it out and wash it casually." Wu Dui explained: "Maybe how many rats have made nests in it. ”

Sun Ling and Wu Dui are both from Guozijian, and they know very well about these bad things, so they added fuel and vinegar.

"What then?" Chen Younian was born in a family of eunuchs and has a habit of cleanliness.

"What's the hurry?" Qian Yuan pursed his lips and pouted at Sun Ling and Wu Duinu, "Just look at the two of them, there must be a way." ”

Sun Ling smiled, led everyone out of the side door, got into a small alley, and only got to the place after turning around, there were already seven or eight new science and technology scholars inside.

"Try it, it's all ready-to-wear." Wu Dui said with a smile: "The price is not too expensive, but after wearing it, like everyone else, it will be delivered back to the country." ”

"Why?"

"People open once every three years, and they can't make more money?"

"There's no way, the country is poor." Sun Ling whispered: "To tell the truth, there are really not many people who are as poor as Guozijian...... Those jinshi uniforms were also changed in batches. ”

Qian Yuan nodded slightly, he has been in Beijing for several months, and his uncle Qian Zheng has also been here for a few months, he has been in the capital for more than ten years, and he has said a lot of similar things in private.

Let's not talk about the six departments, each has its own way, even if the Ministry of Rites doesn't have the Teaching Department in hand, Tang Ruji sent Keqing and Xiangling sisters to spend a lot of money before.

The other yamen, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Six Departments are all typical low-ranking and low-weighted, where can they not get money with the power in their hands?

Dali Temple, Taichang Temple, etc. have their own responsibilities and powers, some are responsible for sacrifices, some are responsible for horses, and some are responsible for birthday banquets, which are always a little oily.

And there is no way to do it, those who can come in are either the children of the official eunuchs, or the outstanding scholars selected from all over the country, these are all promising, I don't know when I will get the jinshi, and those who use silver to open the way...... It's okay to say that the other officials and teaching assistants have no share, and the donated silver does not belong to the national eunuch, but is collected by the Ministry of Rites.

Qian Yuan absentmindedly changed into a suit of scholars' clothes, which fit well, and was thinking in his heart about what year Gao Gong served as the priest of the country, which was the starting point for him to officially set foot on the stage of history.

Guozi Priest Wine is from the fourth grade, and it has always been held by Hanlin officials, which does not seem to be high, but it is actually very important, not to mention that it is one of the Great Nine Qings, the most important thing is that the potential is unlimited, Xu Jie, Yan Song have all held this position.

Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng also jumped into the sixth department from the position of sacrificial wine in history, directly serving as a high-ranking official, Zhang Juzheng served as the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, Gao Gong was even more exaggerated, jumped directly to the Ministry of Rites, and entered the cabinet a few months later.

"What god is there?" Xu Wei changed four sets before he was satisfied, and bumped his elbow against Qian Yuan, "Which one of the green words did you copy, how could it be the second-to-last." ”

"You've been soft-spoken today, aren't you particularly gloating?" Qian Yuan snorted, "I'm the second-to-last, you're the second!" ”

Xu Wei nodded calmly.

Qian Yuan didn't bother to pay attention to this guy, turned his head and continued to think about it, seeing that the time was coming, although he had made all kinds of plans, it was really hard to say whether he could succeed or not.
