Kong Anguo came over Zhang Yuan, and it was already dark here.

Originally, Kong Anguo, the people Zhang Yuan invited to the door at the beginning, all lived in the Taixue Ling Mansion.

But with the increasing number of officials in Taixue, the Taixue Ling Mansion was only left with the function of office.

Except for Zhang Yuan and King Wuqiu Shou, no one else can live here.

The rest of the officials also had other residences in Du County, which happened to be what Zhang Yuan wanted to see.

On the one hand, he hopes that the students in Taixue can focus on learning, and on the other hand, he hopes that the people in Taixue can drive the economic growth of Du County.

All the officials of Taixue have moved out, so they will be equivalent to having a life in Du County.

And they can't farm, so they can only rely on purchases to meet their daily basic needs.

The way officials interact with each other will also change due to the change of the place where they live.

Originally, they were all in Taixue, so you go to eat at my place or I go to eat at your place, eating and eating are all rations of Taixue.

Now the situation is very different, everyone is used to being treated in a restaurant inn.

Even without the support of most of the students, Du County's business activities can still operate.

Moreover, Zhang Yuan did not restrict the students from going out, but only restricted the emergence of some industries that would seriously damage the students in Du County.

There are also disadvantages, that is, Zhang Yuan gradually left Kong Anguo and others behind.

It's normal to not see each other at all, and it's normal to be busy and not remember these people.

"I don't know what the so-called thing is that Taixue Ling summoned me so late."

No matter where Zhang Yuan has come now, Kong Anguo still looks neither humble nor arrogant in front of him.

The descendants of the saints, although their power is not as good as that of officials like Zhang Yuan, but their confidence can always linger around them.

"In the early years, I invited you to come to Taixue, and I promised you one thing.

At the beginning, it was agreed that the limit would be two years, but when it came to such a major event as the Han-Hungarian War, I was unable to take care of it.

Now that it is empty, coupled with the fact that King Wuqiu Shou is about to enter Chang'an, the position of Taixue Cheng will be vacant.

I thought about it and felt that you were the most suitable for this position, and tomorrow I would write a letter to His Majesty and the Prime Minister to explain that you were the best candidate for the position of Taixue Cheng.

However, if Your Majesty and the Prime Minister do not pass, you don't have to feel sorry for yourself, I will find another opportunity to recommend you to Your Majesty. ”

Kong Anguo heard what Zhang Yuan said, and his heart suddenly warmed.

Zhang Yuan is a busy man, but Kong Anguo is not.

I have always had a seed of hope buried in my heart, and I waited for two years at first, but there was no news.

He could still persuade himself to keep waiting, and still water the seed in his heart every day.

But day after day, even the students in Taixue, his former students have now stepped into the official career, and their official positions are not low.

The hope in his heart will slowly turn into disappointment, and he has long stopped expecting anything from Zhang Yuan.

I haven't left Taixue until now, it's all because I haven't found a good place to go, and it's not because I still want to wait for things to turn around.

is such a desperate person, suddenly saw a beam of light, and his mood was like a long drought and a rainstorm.

There was excitement and emotion, and the resentment and hatred for Zhang Yuan in my heart were also transformed into warmth at this time.

"Tai Xueling can still remember my things, I am really grateful.

If Your Majesty knows the talent and is willing to give me a chance to display it, I will definitely work hard under the command of Taixue Ling. ”

Zhang Yuan nodded.

In fact, he is still thinking about what Kong Anguo is hiding in his heart.

That's really a treasure, but Zhang Yuan didn't bring it up now, and now that he brought it up, then the meaning of the move that just wanted to recommend Kong Anguo would change.

"I may not be able to exert enough force behind my back in this matter.

You are a descendant of the saint Confucius, and your family is huge and flourishing, and you know how to do it. ”

With a slight touch, Zhang Yuan was really worried that Kong Anguo was a little dull, and in the end, if the Kong family didn't exert his strength, he would be left alone to dredge up the relationship in front, and the result might not be as everyone thought.

Zhang Yuan didn't say it explicitly, whether he could understand it was Kong Anguo's own business.

What officialdom uses most is the art of speech.

"I understand it below.

Tomorrow, I will go back to Chang'an City to see my brother. ”

When it comes to this, it is equivalent to picking it out.

Zhang Yuan also unloaded the last trace of worry.

"Well, it's not getting early.

You go back to the house to rest, and tomorrow I will send someone to Chang'an City to send you off the music. ”

"Yes, Taixue ordered you to rest, and retired first."

Even if he made up for the previous pit, Zhang Yuan was also a little easier.

After Kong Anguo left, Zhang Yuan took out a pen and paper and began to pave the way for Kong Anguo.

After it was written, it was sealed in a bamboo tube, and Zhang Yuan washed up and rested.

At this time, paper was still very expensive, and Zhang Yuan, a large papermaker and a monopoly businessman, did not dare to get out the envelope.

For fear that these literati in society would criticize Zhang Yuan for being rich and unkind and wasteful, so he still uses bamboo tubes to pack letters.

In fact, it is quite convenient to do this.

Early the next morning, Zhang Yuan asked a Taixue official to give him this letter and send it to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

At this time, Liu Che had actually taken down the power of the prime minister to appoint officials, but it had not yet reached the point of announcing it to the whole world.

Zhang Yuan could only follow the previous rules and send the music to the Prime Minister's Mansion first.

Anyway, the Prime Minister will send the music to Liu Che's desk as it is.

Kong Anguo also got up early in the morning, got a horse in Taixue and went straight to Chang'an City.

His spirit is relatively high, he is consciously knowledgeable, and he has been waiting for Liu Che to recruit him as an official.

And he doesn't look down on Lang Guan or anything, he was also a big official with a thousand stones when he talked to Zhang Yuan before, otherwise Kong Anguo is estimated to have been an official for many years.

During Liu Che's reign, talents were like carp crossing the river, and everyone worked hard to fight for a lifetime of wealth.

Kong Anguo compared himself to Jiang Shang at this time, completely misseeing the current situation.

But fortunately, he seized this opportunity, although Zhang Yuan was not very optimistic about him, but he could also let him go to the officialdom to see how deep the water was.

When he sees it clearly, he will probably understand that doing scholarship is his only way out.

Zhang Yuan is not Kong Anguo's person, the two of them just have some friendship, and this friendship has not yet reached the point where Zhang Yuan will guide him on his life path.

After the Marquis Kong Zang contributed behind the scenes, Kong Anguo's appointment as Taixue Cheng was immediately confirmed.

The next day, the documents from Jianzhang Palace were delivered.

Zhang Yuan is not surprised to have such an effect. I love to read Chinese

Liu Che rejected the bureaucratic system of scholars, that is, neo-Confucian scholars, who entered the Taixue.

But he didn't think that having a great Confucian in the official position of Taixue would have any substantial impact on Taixue.

Now that the whole country is reviant, Liu Che can't just stare at Dong Zhongshu and Gongsun Hong, and properly weigh the strength of other Confucianism, which is the most suitable choice for him Liu Che.

After Kong Anguo took office, he immediately ushered in the most important event of Taixue every year.

Spring Admissions Assessment.

At this time of the year, Du County will also usher in the most prosperous two months.

This year, nearly 8,000 students have poured into Du County, and the reason why it has skyrocketed by nearly half compared with the past is entirely because Yan Yi and several people are now in high positions.

Wang Qing was a royal historian before the crown ceremony, and Yan Yi was even appointed to the pivotal position of Taicang Ling.

More than half of the 8,000 students this year are coming for Zhang Yuan.

Wang Qing has no background, unlike some famous and noble sons, as long as their parents work hard and the family works hard, they can get an official position.

He completely relied on Zhang Yuan, his identity was Zhang Yuan's student rather than any imperial history, his background was Zhang Yuan, and Zhang Yuan had served as this background board for less than two years.

Only a year has passed since Wang Qing worshipped Zhang Yuan as a teacher, and he has been reused.

This promotion speed is just four words, soaring to the sky!

There is only one name behind the soaring sky, Zhang Yuan!

But Zhang Yuan is not a teacher who is too learned, he accepts apprentices all depending on his mood, and these 8,000 students can only be disappointed in the end.

Zhang Yuan had already realized that he hadn't taught Wang Qing anything and Yan Yi, maybe the two of them had been following Zhang Yuan to learn some ways to behave in the world.

But what Zhang Yuan really brought to them was background and resources.

When the Aries King and the Lou Fu King were destroyed, Zhang Yuan directly brought the two to him, and finally asked the two to lead Wei Qing.

If it weren't for the fact that the two of them were Zhang Yuan's apprentices, how could Zhang Yuan take such good care.

Fortunately, Wang Qing and Yan Yi didn't get nothing here in Zhang Yuan.

The teacher preached and taught to solve doubts, and the two of them were able to get something from Zhang Yuan, so that Zhang Yuan did not have a guilty mentality.

The mighty army of students entered Du County.

Mei Gao and Kong Anguo were busy all of a sudden.

Zhang Yuan's Taixue order is naturally business as usual, and he doesn't care about the entrance assessment at all.

If you can throw the burden on others, then why do you have to carry this burden yourself.

Zhang Yuan just took a day to look at the list of more than 7,000 people and see what familiar powers were in it.

But perhaps the great power of Confucianism is too little, or the fame in the history books is not big enough, and Zhang Yuan's memory has not yet reached the point where he can remember all the names of Confucianism in Liu Che's period.

Therefore, this list is the same as not reading it, and I don't see a familiar name at all.

Although Zhang Yuan was a little disappointed, he also understood that this was inevitable.

It is estimated that there are very few capable people who are really famous in history and rely on this way of promotion.

Those powerful people who can remember, even if they are very young now, they have no reputation, Zhang Yuan also knows where they are now.

Huo Qubing is now by Liu Che's side, Jin Riyan is still herding sheep in Hexi, and Sang Hong is now in Jianzhang Palace.

As for the rest of the various figures, they have more or less entered the officialdom.

Those who worked hard in the later period of Liu Che's administration are basically still little children now.

For example, Huo Guang and Li Ling.

The first day of January is the time for the Taixue assessment.

Zhang Yuan had already made up his mind that before Liu Che did not change the calendar, January would not be the beginning of the year.

That Zhang Yuan has always set the entrance assessment of Taixue as the first day of the first month.

Then the most lively time of the year in Du County will start from this day.

A little bit of selfishness is all about creating a lively atmosphere.

The bell rang nine times, and it was the same as in previous years.

The front hall square of Taixue is large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people.

The Han Dynasty was big about everything, especially the palace-like buildings.

As long as it's not arable land, you can have as much as you want.

If Zhang Yuan can make up his mind to reclaim the wasteland, and he doesn't have to bear the burden of the imperial court, he will pay taxes when the harvest comes, and Liu Che can't wait to give Zhang Yuan all the wasteland that has not been reclaimed in the whole world.

That's the advantage of being sparsely populated.

Therefore, even if there are 8,000 students in the square of the front hall of Taixue, it does not seem crowded.

A quarter of Du County is enough to accommodate 100,000 students to study in Taixue at the same time.

Once the number of people can exceed this, the style of the Han Dynasty will be considered to have reached its peak, and what Zhang Yuan wants to do can be regarded as a reality.

If you think about it, there are 100,000 students in Taixue, and it is not too much to have 100,000 in the government schools in other places combined.

This is equivalent to 200,000 students studying every three years, and 2 million in 30 years.

Although it is a little ridiculous, thirty years is likely to be the average life expectancy of the current Han Dynasty, but this proportion of students has made Zhang Yuan very satisfied.

In the long run, for more than a hundred years, the big man may really not have a white ding.

Ordinary people can also recognize the content of the official documents, and they can also know the responsibilities of the laws.

Now there are only two classes of students in Taixue, and there are only 15,000 students who are still being assessed.

There is still a long way to go before Zhang Yuan's goal is reached.

The assessment was only one day, and after King Wuqiu Shou stepped down, the back door he used to open for some new literati, that is, people who liked to write poems but were not interested in Confucianism, were completely closed.

As long as Zhang Yuan doesn't care about things, Kong Anguo prefers which side, it is obvious that the four words are obvious.

The name of the descendant of Confucius made Kong Anguo only able to favor the side of Confucianism.

Without the slightest choice, he had already made this choice from the beginning of his reincarnation.

Zhang Yuan knew the change in this situation, but he was not deliberately biased.

Since he wants to be the shopkeeper, he must give Kong Anguo the greatest convenience, just like he did to King Wuqiu Shou in the past.

After the end of the day's assessment, Du County ushered in the annual moment of decompression, which is also a time of indulgence.

The restaurants and inns are full, and the curfew is as if it didn't exist.

This is the tacit understanding between the government and Taixue.

Taixue's teachers and officials were correcting the test papers overnight, but outside it was extravagant.

In short, no matter what the reason, Du County is estimated to be the brightest city in the whole Han Dynasty this night.

Three days later, Kong Anguo's final summary results were sent to Zhang Yuan.

In the past, King Wuqiu Shou might have had fun with Zhang Yuan, but now it's Kong Anguo's turn to really have no humor at all.

Zhang Yuan, who was whole, was bored, and he didn't want to pay attention to these affairs of Taixue.
