Thank you brothers for continuing to support Yun Ming's second signed novel! ）

"Hey! I said Shen Wansan, where did you invite the subordinates, and they are actually quite righteous, but just like you, a little bean ding, you also want to stand up for your master, it's really ridiculous! The young man surnamed Zeng looked at the thin Shang Yu in a hoarse voice and dared to stop in front of them, and couldn't help but stretch out his fist and attack Shang Yu in the face.

The rest of the young students who were gathered around also looked at Shang Yu with a disdainful smile, laughing at the little scholar for not being able to do anything.

"How can you do it during this trial period, don't you ......" Shen Fu hurriedly shouted loudly, wanting to stop the young student surnamed Zeng from making a rough move, but he couldn't stop it because he was a few steps away from Shang Yu. But then he immediately saw a picture that surprised him greatly.

I saw Shang Yu deftly bow his head and dodge the fist that the young man surnamed Zeng swung over quickly, his head had already hit the opponent's abdomen, and Shang Yudi's right fist also hit the left side of the young man surnamed Zeng at the same time.

The young man surnamed Zeng only felt a strong force in his chest and abdomen, and then his whole body was thrown up for several feet, and then the sharp pain from the ribs made him cry out loudly, and then lay down on the ground.

Shang Yu nodded with satisfaction, turned around and clapped his hands to Shen Fu and said with a smile: "Young Master! It's okay, this guy looks good physically, but he doesn't have half the strength! ”

Shen Fu only looked at Shang Yu at this time, and saw that Shang Yu did not have the slightest timidity, and knocked down the young man surnamed Zeng, and was about to speak, when he heard the young man surnamed Zeng exhale in pain, and sat on the ground and shouted: "Brothers, this Shen Wansan connived at the domestic slaves to commit murder and hurt people, everyone go together, hold this scholar down for me, and beat me to death!" Kill me, pay fifty taels to the government! Then at night I went to the three lanes of the alley, and everyone spent all my money! ”

In the Yuan Dynasty, there was a rule of substitution of money for punishment, under normal circumstances, killing a civilian is a felony, but killing the other party's domestic slave, that is, a slave who has sold himself into a contract, does not need to pay for his life, only needs to pay for his life with some money, but this young man surnamed Zeng does not know that Shang Yu is not a domestic slave who sells himself, if he kills Shang Yu, even if he uses money, the Quanzhou government will at least sentence him to the army and distribute the frontier.

"Ouch!" As he spoke, the young man surnamed Zeng was slowly helped up by a student.

The rest of the students listened to the words of the young man surnamed Zeng at this time, and they were immediately overjoyed, although these gentlemen were very rich in their families, and it could be seen from the fact that they could enter the most expensive study hall of the official school, but their monthly money was strictly controlled by the family, unlike the young man surnamed Zeng who came from Suzhou, and the dual-use of silver was not restricted at all.

After hearing the words of the young man surnamed Zeng, he didn't talk nonsense, and ran directly to Shang Yuwei.

Shang Yu was slightly frightened at this time, if he faced any of them, he was confident that he would knock them down, these sons and brothers were extremely weak, and they couldn't fight against Shang Yu's flexible and powerful movements, but if these people were together, he would definitely not be able to resist.

At this moment, there was a sound of uniform footsteps outside Shangshu Hall, and then someone outside shouted: "The lord of Dayuan Xianglan County is coming to the official school, and all the students will return to their own places, and they must not make noise!" ”

Shang Yu was quickly dodging the chaotic fists of several students at this time, and took advantage of the gap to punch a young student with a pale face in the face, and a miserable scream came out, and the student's nose was already bleeding downward.

And Shang Yudi also fell on several heavy fists, although Shang Yu had some strength, but after all, he was still young, and his ability to resist blows was still weak, and he was beaten back again and again by these punches, and he was about to sit on the ground, but he was supported by Shen Fu who rushed up from behind.

At this moment, all of them heard the shouts outside, and they couldn't help but be stunned immediately.

Or Shen Fu reacted immediately, and immediately said, "What are you doing in a daze?" Our grievances will be talked about later, if the county lord sees us messing around like this, he will definitely blame him, and if he is directly driven out of the official school, no one will have to seek fame! Let's go upstairs! With that, he pulled Shang Yu and pushed away several students who were blocking in front of him and ran quickly upstairs.

These students also reacted immediately, and the young man surnamed Zeng Di looked at Shen Fu and Shang Yu who went upstairs with hatred, and turned his face to the students who were following him and said, "Find me a chance to give me his scholar...... Let's go upstairs to our respective rooms now, I didn't expect the county lord to come, let's not be rude, let's all go upstairs. ”

Xiang Lan'er has not been in a very happy mood recently, and there are many dereliction of duty in the subordinate offices of the counties, towns, and cities under the jurisdiction of Quanzhou Prefecture, and they need to be replaced gradually, but it is difficult to select candidates for the time being.

If those people continue to be appointed, it will cause the government decree to be unsmooth, and if new people are selected, Xiang Lan'er will focus on the year-end examination in Quanzhou.

Quanzhou Mansion is full of official learning, there is no one in all countries who is unsurpassed, and the top three in the land every year will definitely be in the top ten in the second year of the Dadu examination, which can be said to be the place where the talents of the Yuan Dynasty came out in large numbers.

Xiang Lan'er wanted to take advantage of this big exam to come to discuss with the main officials in charge of the official school, and some of the people who gained fame after this big exam were selected as the reserve candidates for the recommendation of the city department, which was the top priority for her to control the entire territory of Quanzhou Mansion, and she naturally couldn't ignore it.

This time, she came straight to Shangshutang, most of the students here are the sons and nephews of wealthy businessmen in Quanzhou Prefecture, if some of these people can be allowed to enter the middle and lower levels of the city, although there may be some trouble in the future, but it is always several times better than those who are corrupt and derelict in their duties.

"County Lord, the minister has arranged a resting place for you in Shangshu Hall, please come with me!" A fifth-grade official bowed down to Xiang Lan'er and said.

"Mr. Zou! Please, you are a contemporary Confucian, you don't have to bow to the palace! This time, the palace is to recruit some talents to enter the city, today is the day of the trial! If there are candidates who submit their papers, they will be sent to my room in advance, and I will choose them myself! Xiang Lan'er replied immediately.

"Obey orders!" After hearing what Xiang Lan'er said, the five-grade official immediately stood up and said respectfully.

"The virtuous, Ben also. The rich man is the end. This time, the exam question actually has to make a fuss on this kind of topic, if you do something against your will, you can not do this test question! In a fighting room, Shen Fu couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the test papers in front of him.

Shang Yu stood on one side, and couldn't help but be stunned when he heard what Shen Fu said, as if he remembered something.

"Shang Yu, you said that this is based on virtue and wealth is the end! If it is difficult for the people to even be hungry, then it is immoral to become thieves, such as today, except for the state capitals and capitals, where else will be the place where virtue is the foundation and wealth is the end? When people first landed, when they learned to speak, they first had to fill their stomachs, and then they would be taught by their ancestors and acquire the so-called virtues. ”

"If you grow up among thieves from a young age, you have no virtue! This world is not rich because of the lack of wealth, and millions of people in the world are between loss of morality and wealth, how to do this topic? Shen Fu usually boasted that he had learned well, but this time he was confused by the final question in the "University" in the "Four Books", and he actually connected with the facts and fell into contemplation.

Just when Shen Fu was in trouble, he heard Shang Yu muttering beside him: "Wealthy, Liye." Those who are virtuous are also the interests of those who hold power. If you can seek the mean, if the interests of the two sides are balanced, you will be able to make the country stable and the people united, which is the golden mean. ”

"Shang Yu, can you repeat what you said again?" Shen Fu was shocked when he heard this, and when his eyes were neutral, he stood up with a look of surprise, grabbed Shang Yu's thin shoulders and asked.

Shang Yu came to his senses at this time, and when he saw Shen Lei's excited face, he couldn't help but say with some trepidation: "It's nothing? I just thought that wealth and virtue are not the most important, the most important is the way to survive, no matter what the situation, our people can be happy with food and clothing, this is my accidental thought of the golden mean, only to temporarily understand the ground, just nonsense, son can not be taken seriously! ”

Fang Cai's words were a truth that Liu Xingbao had told him before, and at this time, Shang Yu gradually had an idea in his heart: "Although Mr. Liu said that he is not an immortal, but those sharp words are really thought-provoking when I think about it now!" ”

"People say that there must be my teacher in the threesome, you are a scholar who is simply a blessing from God, virtue is not virtue, wealth is not wealth, but the benefits of all people, as long as you can figure out these joints, this article is simply like child's play, if I don't want to get the first place in this trial, it must be difficult! Hahaha. Shen Fu couldn't help laughing.

At this moment, the door was quickly pushed open, and a man in official uniform walked into the room with a displeased face.

"Shen Fu, why are you making such a noise in the fighting room, if you don't say something that can convince me, I will definitely drive you out of the official school! How can you be so polite, you were late for the first two exams for no reason, and this time it was so noisy! What is this system? The official's face became more and more gloomy the more he spoke.

"Mr. Zou! The students were excited because they suddenly thought of the philosophy of governing the world contained in the exam questions, and they couldn't help but laugh! Now I know that I made a mistake, please forgive me! Shen Fu said to the official with some trepidation as he spoke.

"I see? If you still can't satisfy me with this exam paper, you don't have to take the big exam this year! Hum! As he spoke, the official snorted slightly, walked out of the room with a displeased face, and gently closed the door.
