Ouyang Zhi and the five returned to Fang's house and met their teacher, and along the way, the five of them were speechless, each with their own concerns.

The fact that the results of the temple examination did not come out was enough to make them nervous.

After seeing the teacher, in fact, Fang Jifan had been waiting for them anxiously, and when he looked at their expressions, he couldn't tell whether they did well in the exam, so he asked, "How is it?" ”

Ouyang Zhi stepped forward first and said, "Teacher, today's question is Mu Lu. ”

"Miru?" Fang Jifan glanced at a few people, and then said, "How did you answer?" ”

Ouyang Zhidao: "The teacher once talked about Miru's rebellion, so the students followed the teacher's usual teachings and made questions. ”

Fang Jifan nodded.

Tang Yin and others also said: "Students and others also solve the problem with this." ”

Fang Jifan sighed.

saw Xu Jing hanging his head, looking like a thief.

Fang Jifan saw through him at a glance, stared at him and said, "Xiao Xu, how did you answer?" ”

Xu Jing knelt down and said, "The student felt that the teacher's teachings at that time were too important to the technique, and he was afraid that if he answered it, he would not be disliked by His Majesty, so he ...... The students then opened a macro ......"

As soon as he heard the macro theory, Fang Jifan understood what was going on.

For example, it rained, let you comment on the rain, which was originally a very simple thing, but they felt that it was boring to answer like this, so they had to go online, to stand on a high place, starting from the three emperors and five emperors, and then talking about the impact of the rain on farming, and then quoting the scriptures, excerpting the discussions of the ancient Ming monarchs and virtuous ministers, and finally, and then concluding.

Obviously asked you to write a rain, but you put the first 500 years and the last 500 years into it.

And this square meter, Xu Jing probably began to talk about the rebellions of the past dynasties, and then began to discuss, why did there be rebellions? This is because the indoctrination has not been extended to the local people, so how to quell the rebellion in the end is not to be talked about, this is the technique, it is too low-end, we have to start from the culture and education, to cure the root cause.

Another example is to cure a disease, if someone has a cold, you don't prescribe medicine to ward off the cold, but you say that the root cause of the disease is because you are weak, why are you weak, because you don't usually pay attention to exercise, why don't you usually exercise, because you are lazy, so put aside the cold in advance and cure your lazy disease first.

Fang Jifan's face involuntarily pulled down.

Xu Jing knelt down and lowered his head: "Teacher, student...... Student ......"

Although Fang Jifan also knew that maybe the emperor really liked this kind of 'high theory', but ...... The other protégés all obediently answered the question according to their own ideas, what do you mean by Xu Jing, and you are still on the contrary?

Xu Jing saw that his teacher was not happy on his face, and immediately burst into tears.

He cried and said: "The teacher's teachings, the students dare not forget a word, but the students are afraid of doing poorly in the exam, and will be punished by the teacher at that time, the student union test is really unsightly compared with the senior brothers, and it is embarrassing to the teacher, and I only think in my heart, the temple exam, no matter what, I have to fight for the teacher, the student thinks that the teacher is certainly knowledgeable, not comparable to ordinary people, but after all, this is only an exam, not an actual, so ...... So ......"

Xu Jing is a clever person.

This...... Fang Jifan didn't feel that he was too honest and responsible, Fang Jifan glanced at Ouyang Zhi and the others, Ouyang Zhi also bowed, and said, "Yes, Teacher, Senior Brother Xu is also to fight for his teacher, and he doesn't mean anything else." ”

"Teacher......" Tang Yin and others bowed down one by one.

Fang Jifan had to say that this guy, after worshipping the door wall, it seemed that several senior brothers were surrounded by him.

The person's personality ...... Fang Jifan snorted coldly, bared his teeth and said, "Kneel here, kneel for three days and three nights." ”

In fact, Fang Jifan is also not sure of the results of the final palace exam, but he doesn't like Xu Jing to be smart, although Fang Jifan is a hanger, but deep down, it is a three-view wonder, of course, this may also be Xu Jing's merits, but so what, I am your father, ah, no, I am your teacher, let you kneel, you kneel.

Xu Jing didn't dare to contradict it, and kowtowed to Fang Jifan angrily: "Student...... Obey the teacher's orders. ”

Tang Yin and the others were silent, but they were unwilling to plead again.

…………

Tongguan, here is the east gate of Guanzhong, and it has always been a place where soldiers must fight.

However, now the Ming Dynasty is unified, this Tongguan in addition to the repair in the early Ming Dynasty, after a hundred years, the pass and the building here have long been mottled, but because there are often merchants in and out, so the street is quite lively.

But at this moment, the door opened abnormally.

In the past, the gate was only open for one hour, and those who wanted to enter and exit the gate had to wait in front of the gate in advance.

Unless...... A special circumstance was encountered.

I saw that as soon as the gate was opened, a flying horse entered the gate in an instant, but it did not stop, but went directly along the middle road, straight through the gate.

At the same time, the man on the horse shouted: "Great victory, great victory, great victory in Guizhou...... The officers and soldiers killed more than 5,000 thieves and pulled out countless ......"

This is an express from the Southwest Express Shop.

In order to deliver the news urgently, they followed the post road, from Yunnan and Guizhou to Sichuan, and then out of Hanzhong, and into Guanzhong, all the way to Jingshi day and night.

Under normal circumstances, ordinary good news would not be so fanfare, unless ...... Explain it beforehand.

Wang Shi, the governor of Guizhou, has already explained that along the way, in order to boost the morale of the army and the people, if you encounter a market town along the way, you need to sing good news.

"Great victory......"

Many people listened and whispered about it.

The matter of Guizhou is too far away from Tongguan, but the news from this good news is still enough to make some waves here.

Soon, however, the fast horse was gone, and was gone.

…………

Early the next morning.

Emperor Hongzhi got up early before the time, today he wore court clothes, set up a warm pavilion, and after sitting down, Liu Jian and the three arrived.

The three of them saluted Emperor Hongzhi and sat down.

Emperor Hongzhi shook his spirits and said: "There are more than 300 tribute students, and the questions and answers are all here, so I will read them with all the princes." ”

Liu Jian nodded: "Your Majesty asked this question, I'm afraid there is some deep meaning, right?" ”

Emperor Hongzhi shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Originally, I wanted to take this opportunity to ask about this drought, but what I was worried about was that the tribute students could easily guess the exam questions. At present, the rebellion in Guizhou has lasted for so long, it can be said that the tail is too big, and I am really uneasy, if it continues to delay like this, not only will the imperial court spend countless money and grain, but let Yungui erode, sooner or later I am afraid that it will lead to greater trouble......

Emperor Hongzhi's worries were not unreasonable, and Yungui's rebellion, although it was a trouble for the imperial court, was not fatal.

The fatal part is that while the rebellion in Guizhou needed to be suppressed, it broke out due to the long winter, the overflow of rivers everywhere, and the reduction of grain production caused by drought, which eventually dragged down the finances of the imperial court.

Emperor Hongzhi turned the topic back to the matter, and said: "Let's read the papers carefully, but we have to see if there is really a talent in this tribute." ”

Liu Jian and others couldn't help but lift their spirits, and they also had great interest in the younger generations.

What's more, His Majesty mentioned Yungui's rebellion, which also made their hearts heavy.

The king is worried about the humiliation of the ministers.

The warm pavilion fell silent, and a sealed policy was reviewed by the monarchs and ministers.

But...... Most of these volumes are not surprising.

In fact, it is no wonder that although Xiucai does not go out, he knows the world, but in fact, the best of the vast majority of scholars have put half of their lives on the eight shares, after all, only if the eight shares are good, they will have the opportunity to pass all the way.

Compared with the eight-strand essay during the examination, the answer sheet of this policy theory, many of the answers are miserable, these tribute students, in fact, are all excellent readers, but because of the limitations of thinking, usually do not listen to things outside the window, and only read the sage books, so in addition to selling literary talents, the questions in it are mostly fake and empty.

Therefore, everyone read more than a dozen questions, and they were a little uninterested.

In fact, most of the questions in the past have been like this, and Emperor Hongzhi was not satisfied with this, but he also knew that it was natural for the imperial court to take people from eight shares, which led to such consequences, so although he felt that there was something wrong, he did not delve into it.

Not to mention that this is the law of the ancestors, but the eight-share taker, and naturally there is also the intention of the eight-share taker.

It's just that these articles are really boring to read, and most people talk and point out the country, but they don't even understand the fact that there is no three-foot flat land in Guizhou and no sunny day, let alone the use of troops.

There are also people who stand directly on a high place, and actually talk about the reason why there is a rebellion from this counterinsurgency is because of the problem of the court officials, and then they focus on the affairs of the officials and make a lot of emotion.

When Emperor Hongzhi saw this, he was really a little confused, this ...... It's too much.

But at this moment, Liu Jian on the other side, a slightly surprised voice came out: "Hey......"

In this boring warm pavilion, a sound of surprise was enough to cheer everyone up.

Everyone looked at Liu Jian in unison.

Liu Jian smiled and said: "There is an article here, but it is a bit interesting, this person has read Ma Zheng very thoroughly." ”

Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyes and couldn't help asking, "I don't know who it is?" ”

There is no need to be vague about the answer sheet of the temple examination.

Liu Jian patronized the article, but he didn't pay attention to the candidate's name, and when he heard Emperor Hongzhi ask, he directly handed the paper to the eunuch on the side: "Your Majesty, please take a look." ”

The eunuch carefully forwarded the article to Emperor Hongzhi, who first looked at the name, and at the beginning of this volume, the name of Wang Shouren, Gongsheng, 'Shaoxing Mansion, Zhejiang'.

Wang Shouren......

Wang Shouren...... Is it the son of Wang Qing's family? ”
